I used to watch Paulides, but there is another channel on YT that debunks some of his "facts" with his own proof in a very sensical way. Paulides never follows up on the missing and seems to push Big Foot and aliens and orbs. He has an agenda and he could be comprised. Afterall, he did work for the government (as a cop). David is a Trump supporter, so I don't think he'll speak to you.

Same goes for Dark Journalist. Daniel and Olivia are hardcore fans of Trump.

I'd much rather if you were able to have a conversation with Dr. Joseph Farrell, if possible. Even if one doesn't believe what he has to say, I find him to be quite interesting.

For myself, I am disconnecting with all the stupid people who swallow up everything Trump/Musk have to say and do. Its very tiring. The man is not a hero and folks are worshiping him instead of God. The Devil is very powerful, creative and so deceptive.

Everyone is on their cell phones and forgetting how to actually live. These days, I find so very few people who I can have a very interesting conversation, those that understand exactly whats going on.

Over these last 4 years, there are far too many people who I considered friends that I don't even speak to anymore. No big loss. I guess the truth about their real friendship was staring me in the face the entire time.

As far as supporting people, I would love to. I bought one of your books which I have not finished reading, but its on my radar. If I were to give money to every bleeding heart, I'd be broke. The question I ask is, would they help me in return if I was down and out?

Last year, one of my siblings was in serious financial trouble. I helped her out like a fool although I know God sees I had good intentions, but she purposely picked a fight with me so she will never have to return any of that money, which wasn't chump change, and I haven't heard from her since last Fall. Not any cards, not even text messages. Well, thats on her soul. It makes me angry because I could use that money. Oh well, lesson learned.

A couple that are friends of mine are very backwoods kind of people. They take care of what they have, which is meager, their animals, and do not connect to the Internet at all. They are living their lives which most people are disconnected from.

Life is what it is, but I find most negativity, because there is a lot of bad out there on both sides, a real ball and chain. I may just ignore all articles and YT channels that cannot promote goodness. We are being distracted away from what God put us here for. Evil has always been here. Politicians and the elite have always been scumbags.

Good piece. I remember reading about when lenin died, there were thousands at his funeral. What is it about people that causes this kind of response? It's the same response we're seeing now with Trump et al. and still see with obama and felonia and their ilk. Trump and Musk are doing some good things but wait and see what really happens is the only COA that makes any sense. They are only men.

As far as your sibling you have to expect that kind of behavior. I doubt if very many haven't been in that or similar situations. I knew a guy who was studying to become a pastor. He told me that his mentor told him "people will always disappoint you". I was younger then and that hit kind of hard.

Thanks, wilson. Not sure what you're referring to about my sibling.

I apologize for being unclear. I meant Fran's sibling.

People are looking for a Hero instead of looking within themselves to be the example. We all could be Heroes. Even back in his younger days, folks put Trump on a pedestal. Most of this came from the media, so me thinks he was being groomed to be Prez even back then. They groomed Barack very early on, he was planned. Lying sack of crap he was and still is.

Lets just say that I knew once I started giving my sister money, it wouldn't end. She's done it to one of my brothers as well. She won't get another nickel from me. My intention was to be "kind" and to help a family member in need. I have been down that road myself, so knew quite well how it felt. But I never asked my siblings for anything. I got back on my own two feet.

Words of wisdom, Wilson, so thank you!

I've had Joseph Farrell on my show before, Fran, and hope to have him back again soon. Thanks.

"Why Don Jeffries is an ***hole"... I just got my laugh of the day. Back in the dim, distant past, when I used to join groups, every single one would, sooner or later, end up in petty ego factions. I always joined with the high-minded goal of accomplishing good things. I wasn't joining for social reasons or power trips. We saw during the scamdemic how all-pervasive the decent of local authority figures into blind tyranny was. For pure craziness, try joining an animal welfare group for a month. These folks hearts are in the right place, but emotions rule the group. There is no critical thinking. You couldn't pay me to join a group these days. I now believe it's every person for him/her self. Being in a group will change nothing. I think its been proven that 99% of adults prefer self-promotion and lining their pockets, over saving the world. We must except the reality that is...not what we wish it to be.

Anyone who comes out of left field and is suddenly famous is suspect. That is what happened with Palides. Suddenly he was everywhere. Why he would be promoted, I have not a clue. I used to enjoy him in small doses, until his annoying voice and speaking style became irritating. He is no longer being promoted, and maybe his son was murdered. Maybe he didn't follow through with an agenda. There are many different reasons that folks disappear in the wilderness. I can think of several causes (that would never be considered by the MSM). I personally know of some strange disappearances and bizarre deaths in the wilderness, that never made it to Palides' show. One more thing about Benjamin Franklin...being the Henry Kissinger of his day, I don't think he would have been hanged...no matter what he did

See a few too many 'they are controlled opposition' posts on twitter these days

It's a consistent theme, jwslaw. Sure, there are undoubtedly some undercover agents, some disinfo artists, who have infiltrated the scene. I won't call them that unless I can prove it. Thanks.

Some one said that well known and publicized personalities, are usually in on it.

That may be going too far, but still partially true?

Not on X, except when I read posted excerpts, but I see the controlled opposition attack applied to just about everyone. Jones, Tucker and a bunch of others. It is tiresome. All these people are in the arena and I'm in the stands. There is way too much high school drama. Almost like some on the (dare I say) truth and freedom side don't really understand what we are up against. Or are there for reasons other than truth. I don't fully understand either but if we can't unite, each one of us will be standing all alone against the evil lizards . Which is exactly what they want.

Thank you Donald, for your continued fight against the clear and present dangers of apathy and complacency.

We do have a common enemy, as Charles Hugh Smith recently posted on Lew Rockwell

,https://www.lewrockwell.com/2025/03/charles-hugh-smith/here-come-the-chaos-monkeys/

It is reflective of the Declaration of Independence line about "He sends forth swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance". "Official Malfeasance" is a sacred cow that they don't want exposed, as the shallow, mediocre and superficial egos that make up the status quo who cannot withstand an honest challenge. Who was it that said "Competition is a sin"?

John D. Rockefeller, the godfather of capitalism, said that, Clyde. Which should tell you all you need to know about capitalism. Thanks.

I seem to remember reading in Carrol Quigley's "Tragedy and Hope" about different forms of capitalism. Personally I subscribed to the Mises Institute because Austrian economics is more appealing than Keynesian economics from a practical point of view. Not all capitalism is evil, but sometimes I think "venture capitalist" are more controlled by passions rather than reason.
