  1. Same old, same old. Can’t wait for the weekend history lessons. It’s the best part of your podcast, just FYI.
    Everytime you talk about current events/analysis…it’s like a broadcaster describing the slow moving miserable titanic plunging towards the bottom of the seas. You make it sound interesting describing a sinking ship. 🙂

  2. Trump is indicted for the 3rd time. No one cares – A dime a dozen, right?

    Trump has the people because he is our guy!

    The opposition party/establishment is openly assassinating him, politically. If you can’t support Trump, you are part of the opposition party/establishment. Let that sink in.

    1. At times these indictments approach comedy.
      The DOJ appears to be pre-planning out of fear.
      It makes the smile grow wider.

      Wasn’t it the Dems a few decades ago who, in response to an indictment, asserted, ‘It means nothing, one could indict a ham sandwich.’

  3. If Trump is just one man. The country is bigger than any one man.

    If that’s true then why are the whole country’s elites from varying factions trying to destroy him?

    Don’t fall for the tragic hero, twitter drama, Trump derangement syndrome, etc.

    It’s not the man. It’s about the country that is trying to destroy this man. Ask yourself why…if he is just one man. Why?

    1. Two possible reasons, one because since a young guy, Trump has always exhibited patriotism.
      Then, the blow torch candle on his cake is he has a large and loyal following that comically grows with each indictment the left asserts. Such things bring furrows and some beads of sweat to Soros’ brow and his breathing becomes shallower while his pulse quickens. For more frosting on this cake, T has publicly promised to not commit the obvious errors he made in his first term with selecting so many backstabbers, and to do a deep clean of the DOJ/FBI, etc.

      For four years Trump donated his Prez paychecks to charities and, reportedly, his pre-Prez investments actually sank in value. This is super highly unusual in DC Town where dudes and dudettes like Biden, Feinstein, Pelosi, Swawell, etc., et al, regularly see their ‘investments’ grow geometrically in value. Only the Shadow knows what evil lurks in their pointy, corrupted heads.

      In other words, the leftists and the corrupted are simply engaged in protecting their cash cow.

      Yes Phil, yes! I haven’t heard Victor’s take on this but there is one other man that evil men killed who was PERFECTLY innocent that they killed. Trump has an issue with his tongue, who doesn’t? Trump is the BEST president this country has ever had. The list of accomplishments in. Pure of the constant attacks was phenomenal. He did it bc he is a true PATRIOT! They want to DESTROY our country, President Trump is a THREAT against their plan!

  4. The analysis of the SBF case is not fact based. The campaign finance charges were severed, not dropped. The charges were severed to knock out a defense and speed up the fraud case.
    FTX split its donations evenly between the parties, quite rational if you want to buy the regulations that favor you.

    VDH really should refrain from discussing law or science–subjects where is his ignorance is self-evident.

    If he wants to tutor us on Latin 3rd declensions, be my guest.

    I just watched this RFK Jr video (link below) on Chinese farm ownership in the US, economic warfare and its impact on democracy, and it occurred to me that it would be really fascinating to hear a conversation between Victor and RFK Jr. on corporate agriculture, if Professor Hansen might wish to invite him on his podcast, especially considering Victor’s roots in American agriculture. I’m think Kennedy would be happy to be on the podcast, if invited.

  7. The unlicensed California lab should be the biggest story of the year. I wonder if it had anything to do with VDH’s long covid. It was pretty close to the farm.

  8. So much to process in this podcast, but one item has me really unsettled. The bio lab in Reedley was reportedly a mess inside. Did any rodents infected with the viruses escape at any time this lab was operating? HIV, measles, covid, etc out in the wild?

    Would Code Enforcement work with county health officials to trap local vermin and check for disease? I live not far from Reedley so it is personal but if these mice escaped it could become regional.
