## About this episode

Chris Cuomo admitted to using Ivermectin for long COVID treatment during a recent appearance on the Patrick Bet-David podcast, signaling a major reversal for the former CNN anchor. Dr. Deborah Birx joined the conversation by suggesting that vaccine injuries frequently mirror natural disease symptoms, calling for a 9/11-style commission to investigate public health outcomes. These admissions coincide with AstraZeneca withdrawing its Vaxzevria vaccine globally following legal challenges regarding rare blood-clotting side effects.

Bill Gates and the Novo Nordisk Foundation have launched a partnership to expand mRNA manufacturing for climate-related diseases, while neuroscientists investigate the profound brain-altering effects of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic. In the corporate sector, Spirit AeroSystems whistleblower Santiago Paredes alleged that Boeing pressured inspectors to ignore hundreds of defects in 737 Max fuselages. Meanwhile, the United Nations warned of mass starvation in Sudan as conflict intensifies in Darfur, and Felix Rodriguez appeared on Tucker Carlson to claim Cuban involvement in the JFK assassination. Domestic tensions rose as Senator Lindsey Graham compared the Gaza conflict to Hiroshima, and Governor Kathy Hochul faced backlash for comments regarding Black children and technology in the Bronx.

Ireland's Eurovision entrant Doomsday Blue sparked controversy with a performance featuring Baphomet imagery and occult symbols in Malmö. A Pennsylvania pastor narrowly escaped a shooting after a gunman’s weapon jammed during a live-streamed service, an event the congregation attributed to divine intervention. The program also recognized top executive producers including Chuck from Naples and the Baron of Whistler for their support of the value-for-value model.

### 4. Deborah Birx, Vaccine Injury and Long COVID Equivalence (16:27–20:50)

Dr. Deborah Birx appeared on Chris Cuomo's program and suggested that vaccine reactions often mirror the symptoms of the natural disease, effectively equating some cases of long COVID with vaccine injury. Birx called for a 9/11-style commission to investigate these health outcomes and address public concerns. Critics noted that while she now calls for transparency, she previously oversaw the lockdown policies that prioritized young nursing personnel over the elderly in long-term care facilities.

### 9. American Diet, Rat Experiments and Ultra-Processed Food (37:23–41:19)

Professor Paul Kenny of Mount Sinai conducted a study where rats raised on whole foods maintained healthy weights, but quickly became obese when introduced to an "American diet" of bacon, Snickers, and cheesecake. The experiment revealed that once the rats were addicted to processed foods, they refused to eat healthy options even when starving. This research suggests that modern manufactured food undermines natural nutritional wisdom, creating an artificial problem that drugs like Ozempic are now used to "fill."

House Budget Committee Chairman Jody Arrington reported that the U.S. border crisis costs between $150 billion and $400 billion annually, with local governments bearing the brunt. Some officials characterized the influx as "weaponized mass migration" and a form of "unrestricted warfare" by adversaries like China to erode American sovereignty. Meanwhile, Democrats criticized Republicans for holding hearings instead of passing the Senate's proposed border bill.

### 31. Tesla Model S, Battery Failure and Early Adopters (2:08:35–2:16:14)

Early adopters of the Tesla Model S are facing significant repair costs as original battery packs begin to fail, with replacements costing between $12,000 and $20,000. Many owners are finding that the cost of repair exceeds the car's market value, leading to a "bottleneck" of scrapped electric vehicles. The segment also explored the idea of "EV-to-gas" conversion kits as a potential solution for owners of depreciated electric cars.

### 32. Solar Flares, Space Weather and Radio Communications (2:16:18–2:18:34)

A series of long-duration X-class and M-class solar flares have produced earth-directed coronal mass ejections, causing significant atmospheric ionization. These space weather events have disrupted high-frequency radio communications across the Eastern Hemisphere. Ham radio operators reported that bands were "wiped out" by the solar activity, which was monitored via 131 angstrom imaging.

### 33. Climate Change Pessimism, Resurfaced Philippine Town (2:18:34–2:21:49)

A survey of 380 IPCC researchers revealed that most expect global temperatures to rise 2.5 degrees Celsius by 2100, far exceeding international targets. Conversely, reports from the Philippines showed a 300-year-old town resurfacing due to drought, suggesting that water levels were historically much lower. Additionally, data indicates that Arctic ice has increased to record levels, challenging the prevailing "climate breakdown" narrative.

### 34. Fake Meat, School Lunch Programs and Grain Quality (2:21:50–2:24:57)

Producers discussed the potential for the government to push "fake meat" and insect-based proteins through the public school system, starting with pilot programs in low-income districts. An anecdote from a farmer suggested that high-quality grain is often diverted to premium pet food brands like Iams, while lower-quality grain is sold for human consumption via companies like Cargill.

### 35. John Podesta, US-China Climate Talks (2:24:58–2:29:53)

Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Podesta met with his Chinese counterpart to discuss transitioning away from fossil fuels, despite China's continued expansion of coal power. A Heritage Foundation report argued that these agreements increase American dependency on Chinese manufacturing for solar panels and wind turbines. Critics contend that the Biden administration's climate agenda hurts U.S. energy security by restricting domestic natural gas production.

### 36. Boeing Whistleblowers, Falsified Inspection Records (2:29:55–2:37:36)

A new whistleblower from Spirit AeroSystems, Santiago Paredes, alleged that he found up to 200 defects in Boeing 737 Max fuselages but was pressured to ignore them to meet production quotas. Simultaneously, the FAA opened a probe into the North Charleston Boeing plant after reports that employees falsified inspection records for the 787 Dreamliner. The ongoing safety scandals have led to speculation about a push for unionization in South Carolina's aerospace industry.
