Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccinations produce foreign proteins in the human body, triggering an immune response to prepare the body for future infections. Lipid nanoparticles flow into cells, mimicking a protein, but “the science” claims it does not enter the nucleus and, therefore, does not impact DNA. These vaccines are relatively new, with the first trial on humans occurring in 2008. Yet, that trial failed to produce a vaccine that went to market. The first widespread mRNA vaccinations were the ones released by Pfizer and Moderna during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the global population was the main test subject.
Montana’s House Committee is pushing through a bill that would ban the use of mRNA vaccinations. Sponsored by Rep. Greg Kmetz, R-Miles City, and co-sponsored by Northwest Montana Reps. Tracy Sharp, R-Polson, and Lukas Schubert, R-Kalispell, House Bill 371 would forbid healthcare professionals from using this technology on humans. Violations would lead to a misdemeanor charge, $500 fine, and possible revocation of the provider’s medical license.
The House Judiciary Committee voted 12-8 to send the bill to the floor. “[mRNA vaccines are] the most destructive and lethal medical products that have ever been used in medical history,” Dr. Christine Drivdahl-Smith, a family physician in Miles City, told the committee earlier this month. Proponents believe that mRNA technology was pushed out to sell COVID-19 vaccinations and force the global population to undergo an unnecessary treatment with potentially fatal complications. Again, the vaccine NEVER worked – it failed to prevent transmission or infection.
Those against the bill believe that these vaccines are “Safe and Effective” and worry that the ban would prevent the people from having the right to choose their own health care. “It denies the people of Montana the freedom to choose their health care … I should have the ability to protect myself, I can decide with my doctors,” Dr. Marian Kummer, a retired pediatrician, said.
The entire premise of the COVID-19 vaccinations was to ELIMINATE our right to health autonomy. This bill offers protection against an authoritarian government. Fauci and others at the helm of the vaccine mandates claim they never forced anyone to take the vaccine. But those who refused were completely outcasted from society, prevented from entering buildings, banks, or receiving medical treatment. There are STILL restrictions surrounding this mandate as we learned last week with Vice President Vance’s relative being denied a transplant for refusing to take the jab.
Are these vaccines Safe and Effective? The truth of the matter is that Big Pharma and health providers have absolutely no idea. The victims of the pandemic were the test subjects, and the repercussions are only now being revealed.

The once strong alliance between Canada and the United States has come to an abrupt halt. More so than tariffs, Canadians were offended when President Donald Trump continually stated that America should absorb Canada as the 51st state. A recent poll found that over a quarter of Canadians now see the US as an enemy nation.
The Leger survey of 1,500 Canadians and 1,000 Americans found that 27% of Canadian respondents view the United States as an “enemy,” although 30% still consider the neighboring nation an “ally.” On the flip side, only 1% of Americans see Canadians as an “enemy,” with 56% believing they remain an “ally.”
Canadians from every political party expressed unfavorable views of Donald Trump. Overall, 74% of respondents do not see him in a favorable light. Conservative Party members were most likely to have a favorable view with 27% approving of the US president and only 18% deeming the US an “enemy.” Only 21% of Liberals and NDP supporters see the US as an ally, with 34% and 47% deeming America an “enemy” nation.
There have been calls throughout Canada to boycott American products. Amazon revealed it would be closing its Quebec warehouse, eliminating 2,000 jobs, leading to a widespread call among Canadians to boycott Amazon and cancel Prime memberships. Others are calling for a boycott on other American streaming services like Netflix and Disney.
Canadian consumers are boycotting American food items. I have friends in Canada who have said that US products have been sitting on the shelves at a discount as Canadians no longer wish to contribute to the US economy. Even certain coffee shops have renamed the “Americano” espresso drink to the “Canadiano,” and many have begun boycotting American fast food chains like Starbucks and McDonald’s. Some are calling for a travel boycott and urging fellow Canadians to vacation elsewhere for at least the next four years until Trump is out of office.
Anti-American sentiment will only rise if these tariffs go into effect. Trump told Canada that the US was subsidizing its economy and no longer considered it a vital trading partner. Americans would understandably take offense if another world leader suggested that Americans abandon sovereignty to join a foreign nation. The only positive is that this patriotic nationalism has repaired domestic tensions among Canadians amid much political turmoil.

One of my sources inside Ukraine was Gonzalo Lira, who was doing serious journalism and investigation in Ukraine. He lived in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and was reporting about the 2022 Ukraine-Russian war. Zelensky hated him and claimed he was spreading Russian disinformation and propaganda. That was his standard response to anyone who told the truth. I believe Zelensky had him seized in April 2022 by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), a notorious, ruthless organization.
In May 2023, Gonzalo was arrested and charged with propaganda to justify the Russian invasion, which Zelensky made illegal under Ukrainian law so he could arrest anyone who told the truth. Because Gonzalo was becoming more prominent, he was released on bail. They said he tried to flee the country, so they arrested him again for violating his bail conditions.
Zelensky, I believe, had Gonzalo murdered at the age of 55, claiming he died of pneumonia while in custody on January 12th, 2024. Naturally, Biden did nothing where anyone else doing this to an American citizen is called a ruthless dictator. Since Gonzalo linked Biden and Hunter to Zelensky and corruption, Biden made no effort to save an American citizen. The United States Department of State merely confirmed his death. His cause of death was reported to be pneumonia. It was suspected that Gonzalo was forced to write to his father, stating in a letter that he had pneumonia.
There was no question that both Biden and Zelensky benefited by Gonzalo’s death. Russian officials, including Maria Zakharova and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, also took the position that Gonzalo was conveniently killed. Nobody believes Zelensky whatsoever. He has been a ruthless dictator, and Trump has called him out for what he is. Gonzalo was tortured and murdered for free speech, and Biden was Zelensky’s accomplice and never asked to protect an American citizen.

Well, the country is still divided, with the Democrats screaming about DOGE. I would love to see Chuck Shummer in handcuffs and sent to Riker’s Island, where he belongs. All we hear is how evil Musk is, and that he is UNELECTED. I do not recall ever voting for the head of any agency. They are the independent auditors if you go to a bank and want to borrow money for your business. You cannot say here is my audit of myself.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) refused to indict Lois Lerner, who was the IRS former executive who was at the heart of a scandal involving the deliberate targeting of political opponents of the Obama administration. The IRS had to apologize for letting the Obama Administration target conservatives publicly. I do not recall that Lerner was ever on any ballot asking for my vote. The DOJ waited for almost two years ago to dispose of this case quietly, even after Lerner herself apologized for targeting Tea Party groups attempting to qualify for tax-exempt status. This is what the Democrats are protecting. I was told by a former Executive VP of a major NY Newspaper that they government intimidates journalists into killing stories by twisting them to the government’s favor, threatening endless IRS audits. These Democrats have the audacity to object to Musk when they have abused the power of every agency they can.
These Democrats literally belong in prison. The government is wasteful, and there is no agency they have not corrupted. Even in Philadelphia, I had booked the Convention Center for a conference. Marcus Vetter was coming to film the conference, and they said he could not unless he hired their union city workers. I had to cancel; they refused to return any money, and we moved across the street to the Marriot. The same nonsense from New York City. That is why NYC was once the biggest port, and all the ships were forced to leave because of the Democratic demands for kickbacks and union wages that were excessive.
Once the income tax was created, they abused their power and constantly expanded government. The income tax was supposed to be only on the rich, and it was 7%. They immediately raised it to 77% for the war they manufactured; the Republicans brought it down to 29%, then FDR raised it to 94% against another war they manufactured a reason to get involved. It dropped into 1947 to 36.5%; then the Korean War was the excuse to raise it back to 9%. That is where it remained until JFK reduced it to 70%. It was Ronald Reagan who lowered it to 31%.
While the Democrats always hate the rich and want to rob whatever they have, they cleverly change the definition of the rich. It used to be $5 million for World War II, but it was lowered to $250,000, not individual; it became household income. So you and your wife earned $125,000 each, less than a Congressman, and you were the filthy, disgusting rich who oppressed their Democratic voters. Today, the top bracket is 37% Over $626,350 for single and Over $751,600 for married.
Then the LEFT news tries their best to denigrate DOGE and Must because they support the gravy train of how politicians earn a couple hundred thousand yet leave with countless millions. Perhaps their brother-in-law gets the $12,000 for a toilet seat. Once upon a time, Walter Cronkite was the nation’s voice, even though he was a LIBERAL. He did not mix personal views with the facts. He was literally a “TITON” in the news industry, which our present-day “journalists” have utterly destroyed. Cronkite single-handedly turned the tide of public sentiment against the war in Vietnam with his fact coverage. Although a Democrat, he turned against the Democrats and their pro-war agenda. In his day, Cronkite and CBS were trusted and respected. Those days are long gone. They love to claim Mush is unelected, but so in the entire bureaucracy. No business can audit itself, yet the press thinks bureaucrats should audit themselves and they ask no questions.
There was never an audit of the $2.3 trillion that was missing from one year. The Pentagon has never passed even their own audits even once! But, hey, what changed now? They think this gravy train of corruption will never end. This is our only chance, but the Democrats are determined to destroy the country, and the Press seems to be backing them up.
Mainstream Media has lost its monopoly on information that they transformed into propaganda. They told us to wear masks, and we were disgusting individuals who refused the COVID-19 vaccine, putting society in peril. Dr. Deborah Birx, who served as the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, came clean on Piers Morgan Uncensored, publicly stating that the vaccine stating it wasn’t meant to prevent infection. He admitted the government and the press “done wrong in public health” by not explaining the COVID vaccine is unlike childhood vaccines.
“The childhood vaccines, like many of the diseases, you get it once, you don’t get it again,” she explained. “And this is getting the children to have that disease without getting the deadly consequences. That is not what the COVID-19 vaccine was designed to do. It wasn’t designed to prevent infection, and if you look at the vaccine hesitancy rates, they’ve doubled since COVID.”
I know two people who died within days of getting the vaccine; one friend got the blood clots and can no longer fly. Others were rushed to the hospital with heart problems. This is what the LEFT mainstream press did to society. Now they are on their hate march against Trump and Must. They are too stupid to realize that their viewership has collapsed for a reason. I would NEVER advise any of the corporate entities that have done this. I hope they turn to dust and are swept away with the passage of time. Charon is the ferryman of souls, and it’s time to transport these journalists across the River Styx. I’m sure they can afford to pay your fee. They have plenty of dollars stuffed in their mouths and pockets.

QUESTION: You may say you do not advise the Trump Administration, but Trump seems to be adopting everything you have laid out, including that income taxes are a barbaric relic from the past that are no longer necessary. He has even publicly rejected Zelensky. When will you tell the truth that you do advise Trump? You have been the only voice calling out Zelensky for what he is.
George
ANSWER: Sorry, I have not advised Trump. Yes, I know many people are reading who are close to him. I have no such official position. The Founding Fathers prohibited income taxes. The Progressive Movement went after income and openly discriminated against people who made more than they did. The Progressive Party was even on the ticket in 1912, the year before the income tax.
Trump has stated that between 1870 and 1913 this was the richest period in American History economically. The income tax is Marxist, and the Founding Fathers constitutionally prohibited it for a good reason. It makes everyone report if they even won $100 at the casino. Everything you do is accountable, and now the Democrats ushered in a requirement that every person having any interest in any company must discover that to the Treasury or be fined $10,000 and imprisoned. They want to know everything, and it will never stop there. Janet Yellen wanted to audit transactions down to $600, and if you have any cash app, they must report what you are doing to the IRS.
It does not matter how much the government collects, it will always spend more. The Democrats cannot run for office without promising to bribe people with free gifts. I have been waiting for the free toaster or TV when you vote Democrat. This is why a gold standard cannot work. You cannot have gold as money unless you completely change the political system. This is what Trump is trying to do. The government is growing, and it will continue to consume more and more of people’s wages, which reduces the available spending capacity of the people, which then reduces economic growth.
When we add all government, including contracted to the government, it grew from 22% to 33%, including state and local. The government is consuming everything. This will only result in the economy’s collapse and a sovereign debt crisis.
Taxes are no longer necessary, for when money was actually a coin, the king had to get some back to spend again. Today, the government creates money, and if it did not borrow but just printed what it needed, the national debt would be a fraction of its size. This year alone, we will add $1 trillion in interest to keep rolling a debt nobody intends to pay off. There will NEVER be liberty as long as there is an income tax.

COMMENT: Sir,
Saw your blog post about Fort Knox gold depository . Your comment about no visitors was spot on. I use to be the flight surgeon assigned to Fort Knox airfield in the early 90s. One of the flight units assigned was an executive transport wing. To get flight hours, I would tag along with them on their King Air fixed wing planes. When flying with them I noticed, just after take off that we banked quite hard. I chided the pilot thinking they were just trying to give me a hard time. Actually one of the runways was built and aligned exactly flying over the Gold depository. Whether the runway was built before or after the depository was , I don’t know. The pilot in command told me that even they were not allowed to fly over the gold depository. So when you said no visitors… it really means no visitors on ground or air.
Keep up the good work
DK
REPLY: This may become a fascinating conspiracy theory. If they will not allow Musk in and nobody can verify anything, this will only fuel speculation. They should at least take a video tour themselves and provide that to the public. Let’s see. Members of Congress have tried to visit and were denied. Can the President visit and take a video? Perhaps Trump can then swing by Area 51 before returning to the White House.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called property taxes “the more oppressive and ineffective form of taxation” and is looking at ways of reducing or implementing this tax. In America, one never truly owns their home. Even if you’ve paid off your mortgage, you’re still paying rent to the government for the privilege of staying in your house.
This system is a remnant of feudalism, where land ownership was conditional upon paying dues to the ruling class. In many states, we have seen local governments raising property taxes to compensate for their fiscal mismanagement, further burdening homeowners and preventing renters from accessing the market. The pension crisis at the municipal and state levels has only exacerbated this trend. They continue to increase taxation on real estate because it is immovable, meaning they can always come after you to collect.
Historically, property taxes were never meant to be this high. They were originally implemented to fund local services such as schools and infrastructure, but over time, they have become a tool for governments to extract revenue at will. The real danger is that, in economic downturns, people lose their jobs, and income tax revenue declines, but property taxes remain. This forces many homeowners—particularly retirees on fixed incomes—to sell their homes because they can no longer afford the tax burden. This is why we are seeing a growing number of people fleeing high-tax states like California, New York, and Illinois in favor of states with lower property tax burdens. Capital flows dictate economic strength, and those states losing wealth due to excessive taxation will continue their decline.
Property taxes are unsustainable in their current form, especially as governments become more desperate for revenue. The only real solution is to restructure the system entirely, eliminating the government’s ability to tax an individual’s primary residence. This would force local governments to live within their means instead of using homeowners as their personal ATM.
DeSantis would need to file an amendment that must receive 60% approval from voters, who would likely be in favor of such a measure. No US state has completely abolished property taxes but we have seen several take measures to reduce the tax burden. Idaho, for example, used its surplus following the pandemic to provide a property tax rebate and divert funds to schools districts. Colorado increased exemptions and caps property taxes but sources $200 million from the general fund to pay local governments for lost revenue. Governor Jill Pillen of Nebraska sought to reduce this tax burden by 40% but failed to garner enough votes for the bill to pass.
Plenty of nations such as China, Malta, Monaco, Saudi Arabia, Lichtenstein, the Cayman Islands, Fiji, the UAE, Croatia, and others do not charge property taxes, although revenue is collected elsewhere. The American dream once included a family, home, and a white picket fence. In addition to having a tangible asset, home ownership should provide the security of a fixed monthly mortgage payment unlike rentals with renewable contracts. Taxes have simply risen to unsustainable levels whereby people can no longer maintain payments and this is greatly contributing to the cost of living crisis.

The United States will no longer tend to Ukraine as if it were a helpless victim in the war. The media would like you to believe that Russia invaded Ukraine without provocation. The events that led to this war are detailed in “The Plot to Seize Russia.”The official US government stance on the war has pivoted after US and Russian officials met this week in Saudi Arabia.
Donald Trump blasted Vladamir Zelensky on Truth Social for “playing Biden like a fiddle,” stating that is the only thing Zelensky seemed to be good at. He accused the former comedian of ruling Ukraine as a dictator and denying the people the right to an election. Finally, a world leader asks why Zelensky does not know where half of the aid went. It appears that the “gravy train” is coming to a complete halt as Trump realizes that Zelensky extorted hundreds of billions from the US while simultaneously attempting to push our nation into the next world war. This does not mean that Trump is pro-Russia; he is pro-America, and this entire proxy war is the most dangerous issue facing our nation. “MILLIONS have unnecessarily died” and now we have European leaders eager to send their men and women to die for an unjust cause.
Vladimir Putin has repeatedly stated that Russia has taken a defensive position as he believes the war truly began in 2014 during a Western engineered coup. the U.S. and EU backed the Maidan protests to overthrow the democratically elected government of Viktor Yanukovych because he maintained economic ties with Russia instead of aligning fully with the West. This intervention led to civil unrest, the secession of Crimea to Russia via referendum, and a broader geopolitical confrontation that set the stage for ongoing conflict.
Volodymyr Zelensky’s rise to power in 2019 was part of the broader Western agenda to maintain control over Ukraine following the 2014 coup. Zelensky, initially elected on promises of peace and reform, ultimately became a tool of Western interests, escalating tensions with Russia instead of pursuing genuine diplomacy. Zelensky is a puppet leader of the West whose government is merely a continuation of the post-2014 regime.
After the fall of the Soviet Union, there was no justification for NATO’s continued existence, yet instead of dissolving, it expanded relentlessly eastward, violating every assurance given to Russia. The claim that NATO is a “defensive alliance” is a political farce. The reality is that NATO has been used to provoke Russia by surrounding it with hostile forces, pushing military bases and missile systems right up to its borders.
“NATO consists of 32 countries and it’s NATO’s position that it [war in Ukraine] was unprovoked,” Adm. Stuart B. Munsch, the commander of U.S. Naval Forces for Europe and Africa, said. President Donald Trump blamed former President Joe Biden for pivoting on America’s stance on Ukrainian NATO membership. Not only did NATO consider admitting Ukraine but it began to expand eastward, surrounding Russia. Moscow knew the Plot to Seize Russia that was in motion, which became most apparent when former German Chancellor Angela Merkel exposed the true reason behind the Minsk Agreement.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov of Russia applauded Trump for becoming “the first and only Western leader” for acknowledging the role NATO has played in this escalating conflict. “[His] “remarks on NATO being the main reason for the conflict in Ukraine are a signal that he understands our position,” Lavrov stated. “I assume the United States, as discussed yesterday, intends to remove obstacles that are in the path of promising projects. We have begun to move away from the edge of the abyss where Biden’s administration led our relationship.”
Trump chastised Zelensky for complaining without offering solutions. “I think I have the power to end this war, and I think it’s going very well. Today I heard, ‘Oh, well, we weren’t invited.’ Well, you’ve been there for three years. You should have ended it three years — you should have never started it,” President Trump stated. Zelensky accused Trump of “living in this disinformation space” and has been surrounding himself with European neocons in recent weeks who are hell-bent on continuing this war. Zelensky’s comments regarding Trump caused the US president to expose him as a puppet dictator. Zelensky got away with harassing the US for money over the past three years, but he barked up the wrong tree this time and turned his leading donor into an enemy who does not respect him.
Moscow will not speak with Zelensky as they do not see him as the legitimate leader of Ukraine. Zelensky was able to bypass the entire election process by declaring martial law. Trump claims Zelensky’s approval rating is 4% while Ukraine maintains that at least half of the population supports Zelensky. If the current government believes that he has such support, why not hold an election? I personally know many people in or from Ukraine who HATE Zelensky and what he has done to their nation. He completely sold out his people and transformed his nation into a stepping stone for the West’s proxy war against Russia.
European leaders are absolutely furious at Donald Trump for criticizing Zelensky and holding private talks with Moscow. Trump is also facing backlash at home, even from members of his own party, as neocons can be found on both sides of the political spectrum. Europe and the US are effectively breaking up over this issue. We are less than three months away from the computer’s May 15, 2025, turning point and I fear that the war may be the focal point of this critical target.
