By Randall Richards, Kyle Seraphin is a former American FBI agent who currently serves as a political commentator and whistleblower against various sensitive cases in the United States. In addition, he also runs a successful podcast where he shares his opinions and views including the 2nd Amendment and social justice issues. He’s interviewed here by Alex Jones covering important news about “The Team” (current administration) and how it can work better together, the continuing issues with rogue elements of the FBI, and the Epstein files, to name a few. This recent interview sheds light on what’s going on behind the scenes with current players, both the good, the bad and the ugly.
By Randall Richards The “ Safe and Effective Roadshow” event in Queenstown New Zealand on the 11th of November ’24 was one of a number of events held in various towns and cities throughout the country and had been enthusiastically received. The initiative has been to address concerns about C-19 vaccine safety, transparency in the medical field and health effects and spread the word to bypass the media blackout and censorship. Below is my report of the Queenstown conference held at the Rydges hotel, which had a full audience.
Dr. Matt Shelton presented on the “State of the NZ Medical Nation”.
Matt is always a riveting speaker and he delivered, yet again, in Queenstown. He started by saying “There were a number of red flags when the vaccine was first rolled out” which got his attention. “The banning of HCQ, Ivermectin, Artemisia, and that there was no need to ascertain cause of death, throwing out accepted pandemic management principles, and the abandonment of medical standards, and fiduciary obligations such as: – Do no harm – Informed consent, freely given, – Right to decline – Protect the unborn and the mother, – Considering fertility, cancer and birth defects”
A slide in his presentation entitled “Along Came Covid” lists the following: Whatever it is: Lock up the healthy; Do NOT treat, (despite positive trials for HCQ and IVM); Pfizer contracts for Albania, Brazil, and South Africa all forbid competitor treatments to vaccination and disclosure of harms; And lastly, “Diagnose by a dodgy PCR test” Most importantly, Dr. Shelton said the government’s actions, “throw away years of Common Law by violation of human rights.” He added that “the nation and the community needed to know what was going on but were kept in the dark.” He added, “It couldn’t have been more obvious that this was a disease of the elderly and immune compromised.” “Probably the most damning claim [as the truth comes out] will be the damaging consequences to pregnant woman – Safe and effective? Not so. Barack Obama said “We are in the biggest drug trial in world history.” “There’s a huge amount of data that has had been withheld from the public. In this day and age you can’t lose an airplane [in the middle of a flight] and, you can’t pretend you can’t analyse your own data. Furthermore, it’s not a vaccine, it’s a genetic transfer device. I love Dr. Shelton’s blunt but accurate assessments of our current times. He flatly stated, “It’s very clear this is a military operation.” “ Don’t ask any questions, there is a war on and just do you your bit, do what you’re told.” Dr. Shelton presented a slide entitled, “One Study to Rule Them All: On the Elsevier website, “this is the most important look at trial with serious side effects” – The title of the article was “Serious adverse events of special interest following mRNA Covid 19 vaccination in randomized trials in adults. Dr. Shelton also brought up the now famous Thai study
He stated, “There’s absolute silence from our elected representatives, from the establishment and the medical community. We don’t want to think this could be happening to us in this day and age. But it is. There is a war going on.”, said Shelton, adding, We have more technology than ever before [to help us]. So how can any of this be true, surely they would look out for us.” “But We have incredible resources and together. We can get through this. There will be a rough ride ahead, but I couldn’t be prouder to be with colleagues and community that has formed [as a result of Covid], There will be a point in time when we have government agencies that are [no longer] captured. We’re actually taking on the state. It’s a frightening place to be – I can’t wait to see how we do it – There will be a critical mass, and things will change quickly.” Shelton questioned, “Compared to 2020, do you think we are in a better position now? The challenge [now] is the people that have woken up – they need to become active themselves in some peaceful way. They all have skin in the game, so, [we have to] encourage them into action.
Dr. Guy David Hatchard, presented to the audience via a Zoom call, He is an international advocate of food safety and natural medicine, was formerly a senior manager at Genetic ID, a global food safety testing and certification laboratory and is the author of “Your DNA Diet”
The title of his presentation was Medical Statistics and Excess Deaths. Hatchard is a well-versed speaker with an affable nature. I’ve also heard him speak at one of our regular NZ Rising Zoom meetings, which was also well received. Hatchard writes a blog which comes out a couple of times a week. Hatchard stated, “This wasn’t a normal vaccine, it was genetically engineered and there were warnings about it, but those warning were ignored. Through an Official Information Act request, we’ve discovered that mortality is increasing in the whole population. Most importantly there is Increase in teen mortality by 188% – in 2019 there were, two thousand cases of Chest pain reports under 40 years old, but in 2023 that number jumped to 20,000 In 2024 will be up 40K.” He continued, “We all have a sense that something has gone wrong, and we need to ask the question ‘What is Life?’. Well it’s being, thinking, and action” with a conscious mind and body.” He went on to say that “Biotechnology cannot be contained. It came from a bio lab and this has been admitted by the US government. If you knew of the risk of genetic technology that invades our cells you would take notice – Both COVID and the vaccine undermine our immune system – it leaves the individual being more vulnerable to disease than before. This scenario was completely predicable. Being an engineered virus, it was going to be unstable.” Furthermore, the high rate of vaccination in the population has created variants because the virus was evading the vaccines, driven by commercial thrust in the biotechnology and people made a lot of money from this biotech. People started becoming millionaires on the backs of people being experimented on.” “But knowledge has an organizing power. Will it [a virus, a vaccine rollout] happen again? Recently fourty-three monkeys escaped from a US lab https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4gd8xx93yo doing research on deadly pathogens. It’s as if the human race has entered into a suicide pack driven by greed and ignorance. When you have 80% of the population asleep at the wheel, the government is reflection of the collective consciousness. We need to develop who were are, not just our thinking and intelligence, but we have to evolve actively. Revolutions are a disaster and disrupt society. Evolution is the way forward. We have to popularise diet and mediation, etc.” This is huge collective endeavour and as we try and find a way forward, [we find] it’s an awakening. And I am fundamentally hopeful about the future, In the end truth alone triumphs.
Dr. Fre, founder of the Asklepion Academy and author “Free Your Smile and Love Your Teeth” spoke briefly and showed a self-produced video on taking charge of your own dental health plan. He’s a retired dentist with a mission no less than transforming dental practices in New Zealand. He offers an online e-learning course on his website. He also mentioned the book: entitled The Most Dangerous Superstition Fre stated that dental anesthetics such as Citanest, Oralbloc have been shown to contain RNA. He also mentioned Dr. Jim Lundstrom‘s website and Bio mimetic dentistry
Former NZ career newscaster and radio personality Peter Williams gave an impromptu talk at the conference about his leaving the mainstream news industry abruptly a few years ago, because he wasn’t following the prescribed talking points that his producers demanded of him. On air, Williams would give a history of the vaccine rollout for his listeners. Then he discovered and read reports from Israel that showed disturbing truths about the vaccine. But the reaction from by bosses were “Don’t ask questions, just read the reports” – Then he was interviewing Lawyer Sue Gray about the NZ Medicines Act which stated vaccines/treatments could not be given out to more than a small group of citizens. She actually won the case for the citizens of New Zealand, then, the next day, Andrew Little, Minister of Health, changed the law to suit the vaccine rollout agenda, negating the win by Gray Said Williams, “The reaction from my bosses was quite extraordinary – You’ve been a news presenter and we do want to hear your opinions. But, the pushback on high got stronger and stronger – and it came to a head, when they said, ‘You can’t interview Sue Gray’, adding, ‘It’s not relevant’ said the bosses. Further, they said, ‘It’s come to our attention that your radio slot has become ‘anti-vax central’, adding, ‘If you carry on like this it will have financial consequences to our company.” Williams responded to them by saying, “I’m happy to work till the end of the year, but the next day, the bosses said, ‘”It’s been decided you don’t need to come back on Monday.’ And that was that, Friday was my last day.” “That’s how I ingloriously left a long career in the media of New Zealand. But then, the media world changed. Sean Plunkett came onto the scene on The Platform, and we had great hopes. Rodney Hyde was with Voices for Freedom but Plunkett thought they were all ‘Cookers’. Then came Voices for Freedom, and Reality Check Radio in march 2023
What was once Mainstream Media is coming apart before our eyes now. How can TVNZ can continue going? Its losing money and the content it produces is hardly worth the breath that is expended to create it. The new model of media well displayed in the US presidential election cycle with the likes of Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson and, Megyn Kelly “The days of corporate media are well and truly gone – The independent thought in mainstream media is also well and truly gone. And the future belongs to the small independent media organizations and individual {content providers]. KIM KNIGHT “All truth passes through 3 phases: first it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, third it is accepted as self-evident.” Arthur Schopenhauer
Knight, The Kiwi Health Detective, gave a presentation entitled The Hidden History of Medicine and the Future of Health covered the deep history and backstory of how we got to where we are now. She mentioned who the actual founders of America’s secret establishment were, and how they put in motion policies and one big agenda that created mayhem for the population. In an Orwellian nightmare, the Department of Health is not about health, the Department of Education is not about education and the CDC is not about disease control. It’s a an upside down world, and Knight showed us one slide with many recent n documentaries revealing the truth such as Plandamic, Vaxxed, First Do No Pharm, and Bad Medicine to name a few.
She also presented the an Illustration called Ring Pass Not, or also known as RPN Boundary which is a model about a “new expanded reality”, or, a paradigm shift. She mentioned, “What is known and understood as reality I one’s world, expands and we’re able to assimilate more info, more reality, But, she continued, the new information needs to “integrate” Why is the knowing the history of medicine is important?
-Why is it that we know what is good for us, but people don’t seem interested, -Why do we have chemicals in our food and Fluoride in our water. -What is up is down and what is down it up. -It was about big Media, Medicine and Money -And a thing called the Bio Medical Model – where in 1885 there was a forced Vaccine and on the scene was one Dr. Bill William Avery Rockefeller
The infamous Flexner Report: “Only drug based medical stays in hospital were to be taken seriously. Knight referred to a fascinating Documentary: James Corbett History of Big Oil and the selling of NuJol, in 1901″ as a “snake oil” 80% of homeopaths and other natural medical practitioners were closed down. Another tidbit she shared with the audience was that mustard gas used in wars, was turned into chemotherapy
Mary Hobbs, a former NZRN, published the award-winning magazine, New Zealand Outside for 10 years and has had nine books published since the sale of her magazine. Over the last four years she has devoted her time to writing many articles to bring truth and create a safer space for others to speak out, too. Her articles have been published at NZDSOS and the Daily Telegraph, NZ and extensively shared. She was asked to speak on “An Orchestrated Litany of Lies and What to Do AboutIt” based on a recent article she had written.
Hobbs presented an uplifting perspective on alternative views and solutions. Here are a few points she covered:
Subterfuge and corruption has repeatedly occurred in past centuries, too. World War II and Hitler’s attempted takeover appeared to have a similar playbook to much of what we see today. Goebbels — one of Hitler’s most notorious henchmen and the Nazi Minister for Propaganda — once said “Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it. . . . A good example of this in today’s world is the repeated phrase “safe and effective” applied to an experimental jab, since 2020 — the polar opposite of what it actually is. The lie was so big that people had difficulty believing the magnitude of one so evil as “Surely they wouldn’t say it if it weren’t true.” Yes they would, yes they did, and yes they still do. Medical staff were told there was no place for “anti-vaccine messages”, therefore denying everyone fully informed consent. The experimental “vaccine” forced the majority of people to take it or lose their jobs and the ability to feed their families. It was medical rape. It was also torture, as the many who suffered from side-effects were ignored, ridiculed, and told it was “all in their head”. “
“The most courageous medical staff who considered the Hippocratic Oath, the Nuremberg Code, and their own personal sense of ethics senior to such despicable orders spoke out anyway. Most of these heroes formed NZDSOS and became formidable opponents to the tyranny. Their integrity and honour remain intact. Thank God for each and every one of these amazing souls. Imagine if all medical staff had stood with NZDSOS, and refused. Game over for the despots. Unfortunately, most kow-towed.”
“There were attacks on all who spoke out. Straight from Goebbels’s playbook. And yet there were exemptions within government as it was later discovered there was a list of over 11,000 health workers who received exemptions as well as MPs and ACC. If it was really safe wouldn’t they have been at the front of the queue?”
Hobbs’ talk touched on who was doing this and why. She discussed the WEF, WHO, the UN, the shadowy figures behind those organisations, who funds them and how they act as front groups to further a one-world government and trans-humanism, through artificial intelligence, reminding the audience that the former PM signed NZ up to the pilot A.I. project — without our consent.
“Their stock in trade is fear, divide and conquer, distraction and chaos, along with lying propaganda through mainstream media. They create a “problem” and provide a “solution”. This is threaded through all of their chaos. For example, They create a “deadly disease”, use their media to drum up terror, herd most to take an experimental jab, ban all other options and censor and ridicule all who speak out.”
Hobbs also touched on signs to watch out for as they step up the pace to their dystopian one-world government intentions, but then went on to discuss her favourite part of the talk with suggestions of what we can do about it.
“Never underestimate that [we each] have hundreds of spheres of influence — more than we realise. We must keep speaking out, while creating space for others to do the same, as those orchestrating the fear are desperate for ONLY their perception to be known, which is a key tool of dictatorship. She explained there are unlimited opportunities to communicate and detailed several examples of how to go about it. She quoted RFK to illustrate the importance of this: “Each time a man stands up for an ideal or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. . . and those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. — RFK
Hobbs also touched on tools in our tool kit that utilise the unlimited power of the human spirit that are far beyond the reach of those who seek to destroy us, the first of which is that, “We must remember who we really are: Spiritual Beings, Infinite, Divine Sparks — immortal.” She touched on this immortal nature and pointed out that when we know this fear has no place in our hearts. If we focus on the positive qualities of spirit in life and who we really are, then it is impossible for them to reach us, as they operate on far lower wavelength vibrations and areas of control.
She mentioned the work of Dr. Anna Maria Mihalcea, MD PhD who has a substack publication called Humanity United Now with tens of thousands of followers, and has done detailed deep-field microscopy research on the blood of people since the rollout, and what she says about positive thought and higher wavelengths: “Regardless of whatever is in your blood it is virtually impotent in the presence of positivity and love. And they don’t have it.” Mihalcea concurs that they cannot create. Yet we can. Hobbs gave the example of Camp Freedom in Wellington as one of positive, high vibrational events that can really change the world. Working together, peacefully protesting, saying no, and meeting challenges together were all wonderful components of that. “That experience of unity, peace and love stays alive in each of us.” She also touched on some quotes from David Icke, who she said must have information of great value as he is currently banned from speaking in more than 30 countries. He is quoted as saying, “The mind may feel the fear, but the heart will do it anyway.” He urges people to listen to their hearts because “with every heart that opens every mind that awakens, the evil is weakened.” He said, “The heart would not stay silent as a dystopian tyranny descended on the human family – the heart is beyond fear of consequences and what others may think or say . . . “Love and wisdom of the heart never wavers on what they know to be right…No authority, no level of abuse or ridicule or threats can intimidate the heart or make it submit or deviate …Don’t mess with the heart. Love and wisdom speak their own truth, not someone else’s…Keep the heart open. It links to the real you.”
She urged everyone to ensure they got out in nature, did what they love to do, whether it is art, outdoors, music, or sport and to keep positively creating to help keep the spirit of life out of the reach of those who seek full control.“Let’s also pour the coals on creativity for our country and the world! She gave an example of what would be great to see in the field of real health, including healing centres where real healing can be obtained by all who want to rejuvenate their health through an integrative and natural healing approach that achieves true restoration of mind, body and spirit – where organic food and pure water without harmful chemicals is also provided.” I can see wonderful healing centres in this country, out of the cities, surrounded by nature and where full health is restored. NZ could easily be the organic food capital of the world — pure water without toxic additives as well.”
She concluded by urging everyone to keep as positive as possible, to keep love in our hearts and create the world we want, too. Magic happens with those components. Her full speech will be up soon at: www.dailytelegraph.co.nz
When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fail — think of it, ALWAYS. — Gandhi
Mark King At the time, I wasn’t in the mood for a health life coach, but after listening to Mark King for a few moments, I was hooked. (in fact I was so interested, I forgot to get an image of him.) King gave an inspiring talk about “Creating your future through Positive Intention and Proper Diet”. He referenced a documentary by the French Canal+ called The Art of Making Stories. He also mentioned how important is to have antioxidants such as frozen blueberries, and being grounding on the earth, going barefoot, and getting enough sun. He mentioned “Productivity Stress” as well as having resistance training of 10-15 min per day in one’s routine, adding that “Muscle mass determines bone mass and metabolism.” That scared me to get out there and do some resistance training!
He also shared several Ideas to insure a healthy future in one’s life: – Start the day the same time every day – Do 20 min of exercise, 20 min of mediation, gratitude, 20 min of learning – Be organized, but be present, Remember, Silence solitude and stillness are important. – Do one thing at a time – do it well – Clear your head between tasks – breath aware breaths – Spend 30 min a day learning something that excites you. – You’re either growing or dying. – Eat and drink for health first. – Be active, Move how you want to feel. – Motion = Emotion – If you’re not feeling very happy, change your body position. – Have an attitude of Gratitude. He closed with the proverb, “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was ending, he turned into a butterfly.” From, Insight of the Day
Functional Nutrition Consultant, Gary Moller, presented “Building a Healthier You, Our Best Defense Against Future Pandemics,” He’s from Precision Health Moller helped set up New Zealand’s ACC Accident Compensation Corporation in the mid ‘70’s Moller presented an interesting slide called the “The pyramid of Harm and Death”
which states “It’s likely that most of the NZ population has suffered harm.”. The slide shows the various harms to NZ citizens. Moller is known for using hair analysis to help determine health issues. He stated, “Where America goes, NZ follows, eventually, and, in some ways, we’re where we back in the 1950’s [healthwise].” Adding, “The children of today won’t live as long as their grandparents!! We should be living to 110 yrs old!” citing the well-known Okinawa study. Moller had a number of great slides including “Nutrients Good for Health”, The Steady Decline of Nutrient Dense Food”, and “Injury Prevention and Staying Fit”
Barry Duffield accomplished movie actor and bodybuilder, started his inspiring talk saying, “I do not want to be up here [speaking to you], I’d rather be in the audience listening to someone else speak. But that’s not my path because of what’s happened to me.”
Duffield was vaccine injured and has been diagnosed with early Parkinson’s, but he’s fairly sure the injection has something to do with it.
He continued, “The government employees are blocking the truth. We cannot let this slide or this will happen again. The potential risk of taking the injection is not worth it. My journey has been painful and personal. He asked, “What do I want from this? I don’t care about compensation, and I to want accountability, adding, “If I can keep one person from putting that poison in their body, I’ll feel like I’ve been successful.
William Bissett Fraudulent Medical Studies Mr. Bissett runs the Brilin Foundation and Brilin Functional Medicine Centre in Christchurch. Bissett opened by saying, “Our rights and freedoms have been violated, and not just with the COVID vaccine. We’ve been lied to and misled. If we didn’t have leaders like Dr. Guy Hatchard, providing incredible data, If we didn’t reporter and content provider Mary Hobbs, how much worse would it be? How much worse would it be if we didn’t have doctors in NZDSOS. They’re reading the fine print. How much worse if people weren’t speaking up.
Our ex-prime minister couldn’t answer the question, ‘What is a woman?’. We have to keep things real, and also be careful. For one example, once we get to 5 minute cities, down the road, it will be impossible to get our freedoms back. So what can you do? You can help support our content providers by contributing 2$ per week. How else can we help in sharing content providers work? Try to learn about something the subject that interest you, go to a cafe, strike up a conversation. Every little thing helps. You can also donate funds to the Roadshow website, to support the incurred the expenses and losses.”
“So, What are the functional things you can do to heal yourself – It’s not the doctor’s fault, they get this really nice study and it seems so convincing. It’s so easy to fool doctors. Insurance resistance is a theory – no proof of it.
Peter-Ray Moroney spoke on Better Health Following Vaccine Injury Moroney was a professional firefighter and worked in property development, massage therapist and tourism guide and completed a diploma in counselling.
He shared, focused on the importance of correct diagnosis, researching detox protocols, how he learned how to manage and reverse his symptoms, and on becoming empowered to self-manage one’s health and wellbeing.
the difficult decision he had to make over taking the vaccine in order to continue working in the tourism industry
what happened in his body after the first and second shots
the lack of understanding, support and acknowledgement from the medical system
his experience of 3 emergency visits and ECG examinations for heart arrhythmia
the very tangible neurological symptoms he experienced
the phenomenon of turbo cancer, and more
Moroney said, I bought into the media hype about doing your bit, I lined up Matthias Desmet said “A well thought-out media drives out, overrules common sense.” He started with the statement, “Let me introduce you to the shadowlands… A separate world right here in NZ, invisible to the majority of kiwis The shadow world – the very existence of [the vaccine injured and thinking Kiwis] is an embarrassment to those in power. The NZ’rs “the end of life as we know it” We are one of the most highly vaxxed people in the world. How many have been consigned to the shadowlands of vax injured. NZ Medsafe admits that no more than 5% are injured due to vaccines. Do you know why the say it’s so low? One reason is it takes at least a half hr to report it and New Zealand did not mandate the reporting of vaccine injuries. Medsafe reported 65k adverse events, and 6,000 lodged for younger persons. 193 families reported deaths shortly after vax. 48K stopped after the 1st dose – Nobody wants to know about these people, the media, our MP’s, are intent in not blocking their career boat. ACC has paid out $11.4 million through September ‘24. ACC has been nightmare, a financial battle as well. And patients say: “My questions have never been property answered. The government has not helped me at all. So, effectively you are on your own in this country.”
Dr. Alison Goodwin had her practicing certificate removed and has been required to attend a 12-month “re-education” programme after she advocated for informed consent in 2021 as the Covid-19 vaccines were being rolled out in New Zealand.
She has been a tireless advocate for getting the truth out, and is a member of NZDSOS. Her presentation was so detailed about her investigations I’ll simply leave it with a slide of her presentation contents and a few comments below! Please check out the link above for more on what Goodwin is up to.
Pharmacovigilance “Since I was mandated out,” stated Goodwin, “I tried to understand the New Zealand health and medical system.” She continued, “I have made quite a few efforts to speak with someone at Medsafe but I haven’t been able to speak to a real person. Usually send me to a webpage that I’ve already visited. Goodwin also recommended the book Bad Pharma, by Ben Goldacre
“[In the U.S.] Operation Warp Speed [was initiated] to bring a vaccine to the population in a very short time. Usual time frame for vaccine rollout is 5-10 yrs. However, this was not normal vaccine, not normal mRNA
A few of the many Accumulating Concerns mentioned in Goodwin’s presentation: – Did Pfizer fulfil all provisions of their contract with New Zealand? – Pathologists and coroners were not mentioning vax status or fact of recent vax injuries.
Dr Melissa McCann is currently launching a nation-wide Class Action lawsuit to fight a failing Australian government compensation plan, and unsafe vaccine. She spoke from Australia through a video call to the audience.
Dr McCann has practiced as a GP in Australia’s Whitsundays region. She currently chooses to not administer C-19 vaccinations after seeing serious adverse events from the vaccines; McCann has witnessed an unusually large amount of patients presenting with adverse effects such as chest pain, blood clots, miscarriages and strokes shortly after receiving a COVID vaccination.
She decided to speak up and take the matter to the government, in form of a class action suit,
“The TGA Therapeutics Goods Agency is the department charged with the public’s health in Australia”. So, I highlighted what I was seeing in my patients, and what was statically impossible in such a small community- and from TGA?, No action no comment, in regards to these events,” She continued, “So, I asked for action. The letter I got back head of TGA [was an insufficient explanation.] Every year, there were occurring a certain amount of deaths and it just didn’t add up – I gathered info on my own available statistics at the time and I got a better understanding of what was known by TGA at the time, It seemed that TGA was defending the process. In 2022 I ended speaking with 100’s of people and heard more and more people with injury issues, [as well as looking into] and studies. There were people in wheelchairs, those [who suddenly developed] light sensitivity and several people would just cry because of all the grief and changes in their lives. The case against the TGA, is in part regarding the various testing and evaluation of safety. There are nine-hundred people in this ‘statement of claim”. The claim being they failed in the approval process. There was a proliferation of statements that were reassuring the public of the safety and efficacy of the vaccine. Our claim is around those actions and negligence. The claim was filed in April 2023, and December 3rd is the first big hearing to dismissal of the case – (meaning, there is no case of negligence because there was no duty of care. This is (TGA’s) their defense) If [the case] survives, the next step is to move to the discovery phase. And that will have importance, not just for Australia but the world, then the case moves to the trial proper.”
Is there is anything other countries and organizations can do? Yes: Just search “Statement of Claim” Anyone around the world can make use of it, depends on the specific regulator in your country. We want to make the work that we’ve done to be available for everyone to use. What we’re doing is a civil claim of “proof of guilt”
I’ve included this good interview by William Bissett for your reference on Nicolson’s work.
Nicolson presented on the cases he’s been working on for the public good. “We’re currently doing a class action with 50 people here in NZ, and it’s criminal case – there’s a crime going on here and someone has to be made accountable” He continued with a bit of background on the Safe and Effective Roadshow, “I expected the ‘powers that be’, would bury this story any way they could, so I came up with this idea of a roadshow, As a result of the mandates, I did employment law for people that were mandated out, then also took on people who couldn’t visit their family in rest homes. Then I took on the extreme issue of a family put under house arrest on their island called Tokelau. There were a bunch of us. There were three families who had a lot of pressure put on them to take the injections. Three families that wouldn’t take it there were banned to their properties – not allowed to go fishing, had to have people to drop food off at their homes, Then, I dealt with Baby Will where the government took over guardianship of the baby because the parents were requesting unvaccinated blood donations from the blood bank, for a needed heart operation, but the government wouldn’t allow it. These all are a group of people desperate to be recognized by their own government. They need to be heard. And by the way, ACC is useless. This issue is political. A bit on my background: I asked, ‘Why did my family get the vaccine, and why I didn’t want to? My only family said [to me], that I couldn’t come around unless I got a vaccine passport.
On social programming, Nicolson said, “Psychologically, if you repeat a message over and over again – ‘Safe and Effective’ , your mind absorbs the message and your critical thinking shuts off. Your brain just goes past it and you’re not even thinking. The message is repeated in various forms, ‘The virus will find you whoever you are – Jacinda Ardern was a great mouthpiece . Everyone was lockstep with the narrative. Making sure you got the relentless messaging – We’re all in this are together. There was a terrible Youtube video “Get the Jab – Get the treats”.
The comeback? We have to be there to support each other. There are not two societies (as Ardern said), we are one society. It’s all about freedom – We have to be careful about the future and what rights may be taken away.
The Safe and Effective Roadshow, has now wrapped up their tour. This is a shout out to the organizers of the events who would appreciate and donations* to recoup the expenses incurred. Also a huge thank you to all the speakers and presenters who, traveled at their own expense to the various towns in which the roadshow was scheduled. Lastly thanks to the audiences that showed up and contributed their energy, ticket costs and support to the project. Although it seemed like there was “preaching to the choir” in some respects, there’s no doubt that the word will spread and the truth will be heard. Those attending have learned a lot from first hand accounts, and every little drip in the pond is a ripple felt around the world. *Link to follow
By Randall Richards Wanaka New Zealand is currently hosting Gay Pride Week. Neighboring Queenstown has had a similar event for years. The thing I noticed about the wording of their promotional writeup on Facebook is it made me think, “Hey wait a minute, they’re describing how we feel.” And, who are “we”? WE are all those in New Zealand who bore the brunt of draconian measures to enforce vaccination passports where our prime minister actually admitted that there would be two classes of people, those vaxxed and those that weren’t. Those who followed the rules would be afforded all the benefits of going along with the plan. Those that resisted, would suffer. Suffice it to say, Ardern will not weather well in the history books.
Here’s the post I saw tonight on Facebook:
“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome you all and see our community come together to celebrate and connect.

Then a neighbor posted in the comment section: “Wanaka does not need this. Jesus Christ, what ever happened to Tradie Week?”
Here is my comment in the thread: I gotta add my own thoughts as well. I’m not here to say whether we need or don’t need this event. – I’m totally for gay rights. But this post begs the question, what about another suppressed group that needs a coming out event? So gather round, and hear me out: Having been mandated out of libraries, barber shops, restaurants, even the commuinty offices and service desks, and treated like second class citizens during 2020 etc…When I read the above text I felt my friends and I that suffered during the mandates also need a week of “all about creating safe, inclusive spaces to come together, express ourselves, and be proud of who we are.” Those of us who didn’t get the jab, didn’t die, but what did happen to us isn’t really on people’s radar, and what about the vax injured. As a start, I invite people to come to the dDnosaur park tomorrow at Noon for Red Remembrance Day. It’s a start, but we have a long way to go to even be acknowledged, as a part of the New Zealand population that’s had a rough go.
It all seems a bit ironic,, that’s all. But it’s also inspiring, to get out there and not be afraid to stand up and speak out. And it’s not just me that feels this way, there’s quite a few of us.
I starting listening to Alex Jones by scanning the airwaves on shortwave radio many years ago, before he was on the internet. I knew then, he was the real deal. As Tucker Carlson says, “You know the truth when you hear it. You can smell it.”
When a court-ordered “sealed bid” auction just resulted in the shutdown of Jones’s website and his Infowars studio today the internet exploded.
As I write, his X feed is breaking 4.6 million views overall, only hours after starting his newly created backup studio in Austin, Texas.
The creators of this crazy and unconstitutional plan have no idea of the unintended consequences they’ve unleashed. The sealed bid auction was completely controlled. The rules were not based on the highest bidder, rather the best bidder, chosen by the court. That best bidder, in their eyes is The Onion. You can now kiss them goodbye. (Notice, no hyperlink). Agents came in while Jones was on the air and actually pulled the plugs of the studio equipment. Go to infowars.com and you’ll see “Site unavailable until further notice.”
Meanwhile, the widespread outpouring of support for Jones is self-evident. Nobody likes a bully, especially if it’s a government who has forgotten it works for the people.
Jones interviews formere Lawyer Viva Frei as I write this.
Napoleon once said, ‘Never interfere with an enemy while he’s in the process of destroying himself.’ So enjoy the ride folks, it’s getting really interesting. You’re watching the power structure in self-destruct mode.
And while I’m quoting, I’ll add another. The times we’re in now, is best illustrated by this one: “There are decades when nothing happens, and there are weeks when decades happen.”
Like him or hate him, Jones has been right far more than he has been wrong and deserves to be heard. It’s his constitutional right. We’re watching the fall of the old media in realtime right before our eyes. It’s surreal, a bit unnerving, but no one can argue – It’s an exciting time to be alive.
You can see his new platform called Alex Jones Live here. Go ahead, help break the internet.
By Randall Richards Happy Voting Day, Enjoy it While You Can**
The following is a good natured exchange on Farcebook between an old friend from my hometown (New Hampshire, USA) and me. It’s self explanatory but in keeping with an “Ode” theme, I’m also including some lyrics from a song I wrote some 30 years ago, which seems applicable. Happy reading. My friend posted this meme of Farcebook recently, and here’s my response:
Hi James, others I implore you to do one thing and that’s to look outside your newsfeed because you’re being lied to in real time. I didn’t want to believe it, who does? The power structure is scared to death of being called out on their decades of corruption and are hoping, and banking on, you won’t pull back the curtain and see the truth. What I say sounds crazy, but our future depends on you and others taking off the blinders and waking up to outright lies and defamation that you’re being fed. I warn you though it will take courage. Some of us have the advantage of long-term assimilation to the facts. You don’t have that advantage and the ride may be rough, but I and others are here for you. Again I implore you to at least consider taking the red pill, because all I’m promising you is the truth and nothing more. Oh and by the way, it has less to do with left and right than you can imagine
Addendum: A good place to start would be to investigate who funds the media. You can find that on Yahoo Finance. Do you still trust the banks? Remember the Enron and too big to fail events? Do you think they have changed their behavior since then, especially regarding military industrial machine? Lastly, consider reading or listening Whitney Webb. Best to you on your journey. Randall
This was my friend’s response: Randall, I believe that you are sincerely reaching out to share what you believe to be important truths. It concerns me, however, that your comment was offered as a reaction to a post that decries bigotry in very general terms, and offers a pithy resolution to the “paradox of tolerance….” I would be surprised if your intent were to defend bigotry, but it’s hard to understand what else prompted you to post this comment here and now. I hope that your reference to “the red pill” is intended to encourage general skepticism toward dominant social narratives, rather than an embrace of the fantasies of QAnon, MAGA, incel culture, and the “Alt Right.” Unfortunately, back here in the ‘States, the “red pill” metaphor is often deployed in the service of those collective delusions.
And today’s response on voting day in the U.S: Hey James, Others, Happy voting day there Stateside. Good luck.** Good to hear back from you and thanks for your reply in the comments. I actually had a draft running, but FB deleted it. So I’ll give it another go. Yeah, I’m trying to reach out, which is an exception, because my knowledge usually falls on deaf ears. So generally, it’s not worth my time anymore. There are some you just can’t reach. But a fellow journalist is quoted as saying, there are many pathways to the truth, and some find their way through one issue or another, and then it hits them – “They’ve been lied to.” Then it’s a matter of prying off the bandage to see how bad it is.
I love your writing style. Top notch my friend. I could take some lessons from you. Here’s my response. I trust you’ll take it in good faith. Hopefully the days of respectful discourse are not of days gone by.
Your wrote, that my comment was “offered as a reaction to a post that decries bigotry in very general terms” is not how I see it. The post suggests that those on the “Right”, one side, hates blacks, brown, Asian, etc. and the other side, “Left” hates bigots. Firstly, I put the left and right in quotes, because the terms are almost meaningless. I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, it left me. Having said that there is an extremist element that has co-opted the Democratic Party. You’d be mortified to know the truth. That’s why I said it would be a rough journey if you and others start doing the hard research. The meme was not based on fact. No, I don’t defend bigotry in any form, nor even, “hate” which your post evidently advocates. Love your enemy, remember. My response, in all due respect, was not meant to be pithy in any manner. That you find it hard to understand what prompted me to post my comment is just the point that we’re on different planes of understanding.
A good friend yesterday made the analogy that learning the facts of the backstory is a bit like mathematics. It starts with bath arithmetic, etc., then algebra, and if you can handle that, calculus and then delving into quantum physics. At some point, especially me, I’ll get lost at about the calculus level, (if I’m lucky!) and drop out at that point. Learning the true history, and facts behind the current situation is similar to my analogy. People can handle the truth up to certain point, then cognitive dissonance sets in. Yeah, “the Military Industrial Complex may not have my interests in mind” or “Yeah, there were some mistakes with the vaccine rollout”, and “Yes, the media might be owned by three corporations but, it can’t be that controlled.” “Partial truth” is good enough for a lot of people. It’s not good enough. Yes, my comment about the red pill, was not in reference to the republican party. Sorry, I wasn’t clear on that. It’s about challenging the illusion, per the Matrix movie. Author of the “Great Unraveling” Julius Ruechel has brilliantly addressed the issue of mass-formation, which I encourage you read/watch. In summary, it’s as if we’re trying in some way to get y’all, people on both sides, to snap out of it. Your listing of Q’Anon, MAGA, “incel”, and Alt Right is curious and, respectfully, shows you’re a bit uninformed. “Q” is a listing of clues supposedly from someone on the inside of government. Never had time for that, and frankly I think it’s a danger to the republic, (notice I didn’t say democracy). “Anon” is a movement of onliners devoted to deciphering the clues or “drops” from “Q”. Again, a time waster in my opinion. “Alt-right” is a term like “Conspiracy Theory” that’s a powerful label created (the latter, created by the CIA, look it up) to marginalize with the sweep of a hand. And it’s effective. Yes, you’re spot on, regarding “collective delusions” but what I find interesting is it’s playing out on both sides, more acutely on “The Left”. Seeing a sea of “Red hatters” is a cautionary vision for me too. Of course Thiel’s backing of JD Vance is not a good sign. Have you heard of the Bilderberg Group, or CFR? He’s on their board of directors, and no, it’s not conspiracy. It’s fact. Please read up. As a side note, I’m not “anti-vax” but RJK Jr’s book shows that Big Pharma, and the agencies they’ve co-opted, don’t have your health in mind, and that’s putting it very mildly. They have a long history of money-making at all costs.
Replying to some of his commenters: Tom wrote: As a Trump supporter I was never a bigot. With regards to Obama…we got the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy., I voted for him, but I was fooled. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I agree though, he is indeed articulate and bright though. David, wrote: Please read some actually reporting and scholarship, instead of conspiratorial drivel. I wouldn’t call RFK Jr’s “The Real Anthony Fauci” or “The Pfizer Papers” by Wolf, conspiratorial drivel, nor, while I’m at it, “The “Creature from Jekyll Island”. If the first book were untrue then RFK Jr. would have been sued for libel by now. Christian wrote: try breaking the pill in half. Unclear, please expound. Ted, wrote: Ok, so I read this page on Whitney Webb. Are you going to support Trump, the good friend of Jeffrey Epstein? Ted, Respectfully, your comment is irrelevant and incorrect. And you say, you ‘read a page’ on Whitney Webb. The problem is, one group has done deep research and the other is fed a narrative and believes it based on a corporate media feed. Of course Trump is not ideal, and whether he’s been convicted of rape or not, I admittedly don’t know for fact one way or the other, but have read it was a complete set-up. (As a side note, you do know, I assume, that to get a conviction, it used to require a unanimous decision on each count by a jury of your peers. The NY judge allowed each juror to come up with his own decision on individual counts, and that called those convictions. That wasn’t justice. It makes for great pablum, unless you look into it. Of course he should not be calling anyone stupid or other insults. I wouldn’t want to spend a weekend with Trump. But…Watch the “Art of the Surge”, The whole documentary series of a behind the scenes reporting during this campaign with an embedded team. It’s a rare opportunity to see history in real time. As difficult as it might be, make the stretch and see the real person vs. the “straw man” the media has painted of him, (and Alex Jones, by the way, which should trigger a few!) Ted wrote: It seems like you think: Peter Thiel, Tucker Carson, RFK Jr., DJT, etc. are truth-tellers instead of just self-serving lie-peddlers. I don’t think you’re correct. Your comments about truth tellers/lie peddlers is not based on fact, and, you “don’t think” I’m correct? It’s matter of knowledge from source materials. Respectfully, do some research, (happy to provide a book list for you), then get back to me. Martha writes: I am basing my decision to vote for Harris on information I’ve received directly from people who have dedicated their lives to defending democracy on the world stage (Gen. Kelly) or original documents (Project 2025). Admittedly, I’ve not delved into Project 2025 yet, although have had a cursory look and understanding of it. I need to look at it. I trust you remember when Obama cleaned house of all the top brass generals and installed new ones. Why do you think he did that?
In conclusion, from my side perspective and experience, I’ve seen the huge amounts of censorship that has kept “the left” from seeing the facts. So I understand the slumber, and the reluctance to look outside the info bubble. I was once accused by that “crazy guy” Ed Brown*, (anyone remember him?) from Sullivan County, NH, USA. They locked him up and threw away the key. Yeah, he was inflammatory, and wasn’t good with people*. *(All that exists online about Brown is a Wikipedia entry. While I don’t argue with their record of convictions, I’m completely dubious of Wikipedia, and take what they say with a grain of salt.) But Brown once said to me, “It’s all good that your hobby is researching the deep state and all that, but what are you actually doing to spread the truth and push back against the bullies?” At the time, I was offended at his frankness. Now, I’m a busy guy.

** Since I wrote this piece yesterday, since Trump’s win, I thought I’d better clarify the meaning of “Enjoy it while you can” in the header. Since Harris’s loss, it could be construed that I was gloating, which is not what I meant. In fact, there’s a fair chance that the globalists and deep state, and 3-letter agencies, CIA, etc., who have it out for Trump, will stage another assassination attempt, and/or a false flag event. Prefacing that no-one is coming to save us, Trump is better than Harris, and talks a good game at least. It’s fairly clear the powers that be are scattering like rats on a ship. They don’t want to held accountable for their crimes. So they’ll do whatever it takes to avoid being brought to justice. Make no mistake, these are delicate times, and let’s pray, meditate, do Hawaiian affirmations – whatever it takes to hold the peace, be welcoming and open hearted and above all compassionate. There are some wonderful posts by people on both sides saying to stay calm and enjoy the ride. I suggest readers here do the same. Trump is not the monster the mainstream media has made him out to be, nor is he a savior. But after generations of entrenched power structures, he’s one of our best bets (not the only one though) of making this right. So, in short, what I meant was, buckle up. It could be an interesting ride.
Oh, yes, an Ode to The Republic,

United Free Press founder Kerry Murray, originally from New Zealand, residing in the UK, says, “If you can help find the funding, let’s get a team, collaborate, and run with it! Murray, a successful businessman and professional photographer has a vision to help solve the mainstream press problem which he sees as having a lack of ethics, too much censorship and a parroting of agendas.
His vision has been to create an ethical worldwide press association. In fact, he’s already done it – United Free Press which had a stunning web presence and a roster of serious freedom journalists who were bound by a code of ethics. Murray’s execution of his vision has been brilliant. But like many in the freedom movement, his efforts were all volunteer based. With a family to feed, and work commitments, and UFP being a solo effort, Murray has not been able to maintain the effort and expenses to keep the website, membership cards and membership lists running.
I used to work for United Press International in my twenties, and I see UFP as a great uniting alternative to the bought-off press of days gone by. In fact, if you put on your ”long-range vision glasses”, you can see, like I do, a possibility of UFP having a huge impact on not only our freedom press, but the world, for generations to come. I believe in Kerry’s vision and how he’s created UFP thus far. (Also at the time of this writing, the UFP website’s archive (hosted by what’s commonly called The Wayback Machine) is temporarily offline as well due to maintenance down, but I’m including Currently the website is offline and there’s work to do. I’m writing this to create interest with the freedom press, and a reach-out to potential funders to get that website up and running again including all aspects of UFP, and more. There has already been some positive response here in New Zealand, and from our own NZ Media Collective members. If you’d like more info on UFP or how to donate, get in touch: randall@mtnsprit.org
By Randall Richards Performing Music to Protest & Educate: Past, Present, & Where to From Here?
When I started a couple of volunteer music venues as listening rooms which I named “Coffeehouses”, one in Leavenworth, Washington and a second, in Sunapee New Hampshire (which is still going strong), Little did I know the history of the term CoffeeHouse.
I recently happened to stumble upon this interesting definition of the term, but never realized its origin when I had created those coffeehouses in the states. Interesting how things turn out: “GI Coffeehouses” were a consequential part of the anti-war movement during the Vietnam War era, particularly the resistance to the war within the U.S. military. They were mainly organized by civilian anti-war activists as a method of supporting anti-war and anti-military sentiment
. The FTA Roadshow was explicitly created in the ’70’s as a counter to Bob Hope’s pro-war USO tour. Original cast, from left: Gary Goodrow, Jane Fonda, Donald Sutherland, Peter Boyle, Dick Gregory, and Barbara Dane at the Haymarket GI Coffeehouse near Fort Bragg.
We started the first venue in Washington State because I had been a professional pianoplayer for years, and budding singer/songwriter on the guitar. I wanted to perform in a supportive listening room environment.
I had taken note of one such venue in a Sedona, AZ bookstore. Since I could only find bars and pubs, where venues treated the artists as background musicians, I wanted no part of that.So I decided to give it a shot by approaching a local hotel owner who was willing to let me set up on Friday nights in his unused conference space and stage in Leavenworth, WA. More on that winning formula in another piece.
New Zealand: Fast forward to New Zealand, 2021 in the thick of mandates, and other general draconian measures pushed upon the population, based on a injection that was neither safe nor effective. We started having occasional bonfire music jams, and a like-minded Saturday Market, primarily for our freedom loving community (but all were welcome) in the Upper Clutha region of the South Island.
About six months ago I decided to apply to be one of the 16 international chapters of Jam For Freedom, backed by Eric Clapton. We were welcomed with open arms.
We have yet to hold our inaugural event. I’m still in the process of reaching out to additional musicians in the country who have been part of either the Wellington Protests, were featured in The River of Freedom and We Came Here for Freedom documentaries. Once we have a critical mass of freedom loving musicians, we’ll create an event,
We’ll also create traveling Jam For Freedom (Coffeehouse type roadshow), starting with the South Island based on the Coffeehouse formula I had started in the U.S., but simply a mobile version. That means a featured performer, followed by an open mic, a “trained” listening room audience, and passing the hat for the musicians, venue hire, and roadshow expenses,). I have a van, a waterproof trailer for the music gear, and just need some JFF branding for the vehicle and a stage backdrop.
Vietnam: My family and I just toured of Vietnam, and I’m now writing a few pieces, not about the tourist side, but the impact of the war museums, the wonderful people we met, the stories I was told, and most recently, a book I’m reading called Understanding Vietnam explaining not only the war, but the deep seated psyche of the Vietnamese. During a visit to the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Min City, I found these images on display:
Yo koi Kumiko sings to solders in the artillery battleground in Quang Binh Provence, 10 December, 1973“A rally against US aggression in Vietnam from Japan’s Beheiren, Tokyo, 1972
This might be the time to premise some the articles I’m working on about Vietnam’s view of the US Occupation of Vietnam. They call it the “American War”, by the way. I went to Vietnam with some ingrained knee-jerk conditioning, courtesy of our government’s controlled media in the states. That paradigm quickly dissolved. Of course I could see Vietnam’s plugging their side of the story as well. But I do have discernment, and will talk about that in later posts.
Although there is a history of protest music from the US side I assume there’s more about Vietnam’s side, protesting war. However, this was the first time I it was on my radar. The historians will write about such protest songs being written now, not only about anti-war, but about various nefarious agendas that aim to curb our freedoms, hurt our children and enslave the world’s population. Music is one of the best ways to call out the troublesome behaviors of those powerful people in charge who obviously don’t have our best interests in mind.
Comedy is a another avenue to opening the dialogue where direct debate and conversation often fail to bridge the gap between different paradigms. Jim Breuer’s Somebody Had to Say It, is a case in point.
So wish us luck with our Jam For Freedom adventure here in New Zealand! If you’re a musician get in touch! If you’re a friend of mine, who happens to be living stateside, or elsewhere, I also invite you to join in the conversation on our Jam For Freedom Telegram chat or the International Telegram group. Even though the NZ chat is focused for us here in New Zealand, I feel, the more the merrier. We could use the moral support! Did you guys hear that… Kirtana, Neal Fox, Scot Bergeron, Conspiracy Music Guru?
THANKS TO: A special thanks goes to those New Zealand musicians who performed at our protest on Parliament grounds and were featured in those documentaries mentioned above, and to those who have joined our Jam For Freedom NZ Telegram Group. Also thanks to all the steering committee and volunteer members of the West and East Coffeehouses who have worked hard to deliver live music in a listening room for so many years.
A special acknowledgement again to Neal Fox for being ahead of the curve, and for his unflinching creative stance in music compositions and film-making productions, and sticking it to the “all powerful”. You can see his work here.
Learn more about the Coffeehouse concept here. Start one in your community! You learn more about Randall’s music here. Our music studio is open for musicians-in-residence who would like to be pampered and be free to write and record in our small studio set in the mountains of the Southern Alps of NZ.
By Randall Richards Yesterday, I attended the NZDSOS, (New Zealand Doctors Speaking Out With Science) called “Empowering Change” held in Christchurch. There were range of speakers from as far away as the UK and the US, who informed and inspired an audience of six-hundred. The event will also be held next weekend on the 28th of September in Auckland and tickets are still available here. The lineup is impressive:
The event was emceed by former Quantas Senior Pilot, Graham Hood, who did a fabulous job of setting a compassionate, humorous tone, but one with a “Time to roll up our sleeves”, pitch, where we need to spread the truth about what’s really going on today in the field of health. Speakers informed, inspired and motivated the crowd, with deep dives into the facts, productive strategies and tactics going forward, and the psychological realities ahead. These speakers had either been mandated out, sidelined from their leadership roles in medicine, and all had faced censorship of one sort or another. What they all have is a sense honor, humour and determination that wowed the crowd and left us feeling like we will all get through this. Below are some snippets of the key speakers.
Graham Hood opened the event by saying, “We’re living in perilous times. One thing COVID has done – We’ve found our tribe, and that is a positive of the past few years. But we still have to fight to have bodily autonomy, and sovereignty.” He then asked the audience, “Fear. What is fear? It’s False Evidence Appearing Real.
“Wuhan presented us with images of people dying in the streets then, a whole bunch of companies were racing to develop a vaccine.” Dr. Peter McCullough was asking, ‘Hey wait! has anyone looked in the cupboard to see what might already work such as Vitamin D or Ivermectin?’ There was a solution, but, that would make the emergency act null and void. So what did they do? They deregistered and shut down these doctors lives.” Hood went on to mention a good maxim: “Identify the problem before you solve it.. There aren’t that many problems that have to be solved immediately.” “During my flying career as a pilot, we were trained, in a crisis, there is an emergency message we are trained to use, ‘Captain YOU MUST LISTEN’. so the co-pilot can get the attention of the pilot. So in this case, we say, ‘Government, you must listen, you are are seen as only protecting your backside.” He then welcomed the first speaker.
The well-spoken, (and well prepared) Dr. Angus Dalgleish gave a talk entitled, “Early covid virus Observations and how they promote cancer” He started by stating, that there exists negligence and incompetence on a grand scale.” Dr. Angus, presented an incredibly detailed series of slides showing, in short, why the virus was a setup and wasn’t at all what we were told. Since I’m not a science writer, I won’t go into the details, but in another piece, will point out resources and links for readers to gather their own conclusions. Suffice it to say this fellow knows his stuff and is sticking to his story. He said, “A Vaccine was not needed in the first place and the whole thing was run like a military operation.” Adding, “We were told ‘you’re the only one who’s thinking this way, so shut up.’ Well, I will not shut up.” That got the our audience going. In one of his closing remarks he said, “The biggest problem we have at this time is censorship.”
Dr. Paul Marik, is a leading edge doctor from South Africa, currently in living in the U.S. His talk was entitled , “Patient Empowerment/People Empowerment,” He started by stating, “Shedding is a real issue. That’s the bad news. But there are things we can do to mitigate the the negative effects.” He asked, “Where we were in the past, with lockdowns and mandates, was not a good place. And now, where we want to go to?”
“We have to empower ourselves, going forward. Excess deaths, the experts say, are from COVID and global warming – (Just a reminder, excess deaths are deaths of people who shouldn’t have died). You can’t trust the medical journals, because the data is manipulated and false. There is something else causing these excess deaths.” Marik showed a slide from life insurance data showing proof of young people dying. and another slide showed, the more vaccines, the greater the chance of getting COVID. And yet another slide clearly showed the uptake in cancer related deaths. He stated, “Cancer is preventable. It’s a disease of modern mankind part of the Hominidae family. So why is that chimps don’t get cancer? Something in our lifestyle in what we eat and what we do.
A recent example is the super model Elle MacPherson, who ignored her doctor’s medical advice, and shares her secret of surviving cancer.”
“Here are a few things you can do.” Marik stated, “Vitamin D 10k units per day, which is good for depression, cancer, COVID. Use red lights in bedroom in the evening, and the worst thing to do is eat the first thing in the morning, or the last thing before you go to bed.”
Dr. Marik concluded by saying, “We’re moving from a sick care system to health care system. It’s Important to take charge of our lives.”
Dr. Alison Goodwin, gave a detailed history of NZDSOS, since their first action, the presentation of their 1st open letter to the Ministry of Health, The Prime Minister, and eight other key government officials. They also issued, and still do, legal actions against the use of provisional consent to rollout a novel injection (2021), in March 2022 the challenged the mandates, in ’22/23 NZDSOS brought forward individual cases and challenged suspensions, and supported the NZTSOS (teachers) appeal. In 2024 they filed to pause fluoridation and are challenging against the MCNZ regarding the Guidance Statement. Goodwin’s closing slides included this powerful list of requirements in order to move on:
Dr. Matt Shelton‘s (of NZDSOS) talk was entitled, “The past will not equal the future if we are determined enough. Strategies, tactics and psychological realities for our future.”
Dr. Shelton gave a riveting and inspiring speech showing us a possible way forward from the quagmire in which we find ourselves of deceptive government health practices worldwide. He started by mentioning a an important study called the “Japanese Nakahara study” – “These results are so extraordinary, we have to take notice. It hasn’t been refuted or retracted and shows the universality of the negative impact of the vaccines.” He also mentioned the “Thai Boys study” in Thailand, where a whopping 3.5% of the study had clinical evidence of myocarditis . This was the first study that gave a ballpark figure. This was followed by a study in Switzerland, where health care workers showed a 2.7% incidence of myocarditis from boosters where they looked at troponin (a protein in blood that indicates damage to heart muscle), and death of some heart cells. The suggestion: that there is a widespread effect on the heart from the vaccine.” “What we need to look for is “triangulation” There was the Nathan Meade study was retracted, but has since been republished. In short, what’s happening in real life is much worse than is officially being reported.”
“We have to hang on to our intuition. If the other side won’t even engage or tell us that we’re wrong, that says we’re on the right track. The most worrying thing has been the silence from all the institutions, and how how quickly the lines were drawn, and there has been no debate on the science. [When we started presenting these studies’] we thought, BOOM now people will wake up, we’ll have the answer. But that hasn’t happened.” “The story for white clot is different. These are tangible signs that seems to be affecting people who have had jabs. This is what embalmers are saying, labs, surgeons. There are enough of these people now, and we’ve had several years of this seemingly horrendous phenomenon that needs an explanation.” Shelton added, “We can’t work in isolation, we can’t work without funding. It will take a loud voice to speak the truth to power.” Shelton said to the audience, “Welcome to those of you in the audience who are curious, or who are from the NZ Medical Council, or…. the intelligence services.” “Everyone needs to move from being passive supporters. When someone says to me, ‘Thank you for what you’re doing’ I respond by asking them what they’re doing to affect change. We could move mountains, if all those people that know that something is wrong , speak out and do something. “
“So, most of the country [here in NZ], must be antivaxxers.” said Shelton, “It’s now more than six months since vaccination, and booster rates are slipping, and everyday people aren’t taking them.” On another note, he continued, “Everyone is looking for a leader, Even in the freedom movement, there is still a tendency to wait for the cavalry to come over the hill. We are the cavalry.” “We don’t just want you to be behind us, but to stand shoulder to shoulder with us. So many were at the Wellington Protest against the mandates. That was the beginning of the end. There is going to be a tipping point. The human herd will eventually notice when enough of its members are not there anymore. We have to keep telling the truth, not worrying about where the chips may fall. We’re occupying the landscape that is ours.” Find a country the USA has invaded where they’re still there. They haven’t been [in the occupied country] for all that long. The countrymen, the freedom fighters kick them out after a time. We have a lot of brothers and sisters waiting to be inspired, and model behavior. There are many stories of people trying to connect. They are inching back from the narrative, and we need as many people as possible. I would ask people to read and re-read the posts that our media team has posted. Everything is in there. We know they are shadow banning us on social media and the news so please share this information.
Katie Ashby-Koppens, a lawyer based in New Zealand and Australia, presented “Success Stories and empowerment” on her work with various important cases both in Australia and New Zealand, related to transgressions by the government against human rights and health freedom.
Ashby-Koppens most notably worked with Voices for Freedom when evidence obviously showed in 2021 the negative effects of mandates regarding border workers, corrections, medical professionals, teachers, not to mention the mandatory use of vaccine passes. These were challenged by Katie and her team.
In 2022, Voices for Freedom met with the Human Rights Commission and issued a press release stating in its opening lines: “Voices for Freedom yesterday gave a voice to those negatively impacted by the Government’s Covid-19 responses….”
Also of note, was Ashby-Koppens’ work, in part, on the legal aspects, to help relieve the plight of the Mahelino Patelesio family, who were forced into “house arrest” on the small island of Tokelau which is “a non self-governing territory” of New Zealand. The arrest had devastating effects on the family. The arrest, was perpetrated on the family because they refused the Pfizer injection. The family eventually was allowed to move to New Zealand, where well wishers greeted them with open arms. Also in 2023, Rodney Hide interviewed Mr. Patelesio on Reality Check Radio. The piece is entitled, “Mahelino Patelesio On Home Arrest In Tokelau & Standing Up For His Beliefs.” (Editor’s Note: It’s worth noting, that In 2022, Liz Gunn of FreeNZ broke the story by posting an interview with Patelesio , and played an important role in helping to get the family to safety in New Zealand.)
Across the ditch in Australia, Katie has been busy with the following legal actions: “AVN vs TGA, Federal court, 5-12 yr olds”, “Dr. Parry vs TGA,HIgh Court re: 6 month to 6 year olds” and “Fidge vs Phizer and Maderna, Federal Court, LNP-modMRNA=GMO” Most recently, in a letter addressed to the Australian Department of Health on the 18th, Sept. 2024, PJ O’brien and Assoc, a law firm with which Katie is associated, addresses DNA contamination in Australian mRNA Covid shots: “Synthetic plasmid DNA contamination has been detected in Australian vials of Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines at levels of between seven to 145 times the allowable limit, a new report shows.”
Graham Hood, the EmCee interjected between speakers, by saying, “The people who have done this, must be held to account. But we also have to live in a more tolerant society. They will be held accountable, but we have to forgive, once they pay for what they have done. When someone says, I really blew that’ I say, ‘You will be embraced by a great many people.”
Founder of Reaching People, David Charalambous, a communications specialist, presented on “Communications, Messaging and Human Behavior – Reaching people.” Having worked for Outward Bound for about 15 years, I found this presentation fascinating, and I think rest in the audience did as well. I found it so fascinating, I forgot to take any images of him.
David asked the simple question, “How did I see things, when others didn’t? He continued, “And then the consequences came: It’s ‘the picnic for one’, prior to that it wasn’t like that, until you started bringing up “topics”. “The problem with [having those consequences] is we start to self censor. That’s one of the greatest weapons of propaganda, It leads to apathy. But more importantly, speaking up leads and motivates others to speak up as well. There’s huge power in numbers. March 2022 was quite alarming time, but my 20 years of experience and my studies, I was seeing systems worldwide [that suddenly] stopped working on a scale I’d never seen before.” “I researched – How to use effectively communicate to someone with different views than yours. And that is very different than communicating with someone within your same group.” Charalambous told a story about woman who was taking a walk in a city park. She was not wearing a mask, and encountered an elderly lady there. The elderly woman immediately confronted her, wagging her finger, saying “You should be wearing a mask.” But the maskless woman, instead of “stepping into the ring”, just asked, simply asked, “How can I help you, my dear? I’m here to listen.” And the masked lady replied, “I just need a hug.” Charalambous said, “Then both of their defenses came down. The moral of the story, ‘Do not step in the ring’ when you’re confronted with someone on the opposite side of the fence. It wont solve anything, it just plays into their hands.”
He said, “Seek to first Understand” “I’m extremely hopeful, when people know what’s going on, successes will go through the roof. He briefly covered some key examples of effective influence after having reminded us about the famous Milgram Experiment : “So what works best it tell people what their neighbors do. We are social animals in packs, communities. We look to what others are doing for cues and clues for what to do. It’s really shocking that incentives have a key effect on behavior. David then showed a quote on the screen: ‘There are two reasons for everything – A good reason and a real reason.’ JP Morgan“
“We on this side, have been awful at predicting behavior. But the establishment is good at it. Further, there is no baseline for the description ‘antivax’ or ‘conspiracy theorist’. This is why the terms work so well. You cannot convince others of your point of view when you are in “different groups”, Until you find common ground, you won’t get anywhere. The solution is to find a way that we become a “we”, instead of “us and them”. Unless you find common ground, you don’t continue the conversation. We have to drop that winning label . Would you rather get your family friends back or …be right. How you say something ismor important vs what you say.”
The emcee, Mr. Hood, concluded the day by starting with the following, “Don’t mine for darkness”. (Which reminds me of the Native American saying, “Keep your face to the sunshine”)
Hood continued, “Invite the government to tell us where we’re wrong. [But also], if we keep drawing attention to this Health Tyranny, then the wall will come down. These speakers you see here on stage today need to be brought from obscurity to where they can bring out the truth.” adding, “So, build the bridge first and get off the soap box.. Give those that have been fooled, a way to save face. You have the curse of knowledge. You’re in the 10 percent that isn’t suspectable., So give them a back door out, and simply say, ‘You’ve been lied to.'”
Dr. Fre, founder of the Asklepion Academy and author “Free Your Smile and Love Your Teeth”. He’s a retired dentist with a mission no less than transforming dental practices in New Zealand. Like the other speakers before him who spoke about the healthcare system as a “sick care system” with monetary incentives to get patients on drugs rather than actual treatment, Fre reports that the dental profession is no better.
He showed an informative & uplifting video, (which he created himself) of what is possible for the future of dentistry. His mission is to arm his students with knowledge, to not only take more of an active role in their own dental healthcare, but, once armed with this knowledge, to give dentists his book, and ask them to consider another way of practicing dentistry. He’s a visionary, and in his presence, one has the feeling, (like being around many people in these truth movements), that you’re listening to someone creating a new future before your eyes, and there’s something historical about what he’s saying. Don’t miss either his talk in Auckland, or make a point to stop by his website, take his free online course, and.. buy his book.
Editor’s Note: My motto is publish first, edit second. Well not exactly, but I do tend to add content, corrections and links once the item is published, and this piece is no different. In this updated edit, I’ve added more content on Dr. Fre and Katie Ashby-Koppens‘ presentation, a note about Liz Gunn’s efforts in the Patelesio case, and have included a list of all the other speakers and their organisations.
By Randall Richards I’m from a state in the US which has “Live Free or Die” as the state motto on the license plate. When I legally transferred registration of a van I’d purchased in The Netherlands to New Hampshire, I still drove that van throughout the European Alpine countries, ski touring, climbing, and playing music. The talk on the street was this formation a new European Union currency. Some of the locals were jittery, for good reason. So complete with the US license plates I’d drive into small villages and cities alike. I raised a few eyebrows, and almost got in a few problems because of the reactions I received with the motto displayed on the back of the van.
Since those days, until today, I’ve felt that New Hampshire residents probably don’t really live by that motto, much less understand it. Today this story surfaced of a New Hampshire man standing by his right to free speech. The interaction is being praised as a model for how citizens can assert their rights when confronted by federal agents, especially in cases of potential entrapment. Here’s the the story:
Watch: FBI Agents Called Out During Visit to Law-Abiding Citizen Regarding a Meme Post
Intel agency foot soldiers regret approaching man over First Amendment-protected activity. A man filmed two U.S. federal agents as they approached him to ask about posts he’d made on social media, leading to them being publicly shamed for targeting a First Amendment-protected activity.
In a viral video, X user Jeremy Kauffman filmed as two plain-clothes agents approached his front porch requesting he not film them, as the citizen asked for their full names while notifying them he intended to post the interaction online.
“The FBI visited my house today for free speech acts they knew were not crimes. You can see the shame on their faces. This is the Democratic regime manifest.”
Jeremy Kauffman (@jeremykauffman) September 16, 2024 “All I want to do is talk to you about a post that was made,” one of the unidentified agents told Kaufman after showing a badge alongside a holstered sidearm.
Kaufman went on to speculate the agents’ yearly average salary was likely over $100K, before telling them it was a waste of taxpayer money. “Talking about burning a couple hundred dollars an hour just here, let alone all the time you guys are spending…to investigate something that you know is not against the law, right?” the man told the agents, who repeatedly requested the man stop filming them.
After appearing thoroughly embarrassed, the agents eventually departed while the man chided them, saying, “You know Americans that believe in the Constitution think you’re laughable. You go home and you think about what you did today. Go home and think about it. You coward.” It’s unclear what social media post prompted the visit.| The interaction is being praised as a model for how citizens can assert their rights when confronted by federal agents, especially in cases of potential entrapment.

By Randall RIchards I remember, some years ago, I made many attempts to see subliminal messages on television. I was told if you open and close your eyes at a fast rate you can sometimes catch words and phrases within the frames of shows, ads and the news. Try as I might I couldn’t see anything.
Years later my wife watched something on TVNZ Livestream, which she never does. She just wanted a diversion from our normal intake of “Truth Media” (as opposed to OFM, or “Old Fashioned Media”). She was watching a standard series of some sort, and suddenly saw words flash across the screen. I don’t recall what she saw, but she said it was rather disturbing, similar to “You are worthless” or the like. She decided to do a little research and this link popped up about a complaint made in 2008 to the NZ Broadcasting Standards Authority by a fellow named Micheal Bennett against TVNZ.
Mr Bennett said in the complaint that he was watching an episode of Eating Media Lunch when he stated that the message “Kill Yourself Now” had flashed onto the screen in a subliminal manner. He contended that the message had only lasted for “3 or 4 frames of the 25 in each second” and that “this method of subliminal advertising” had been banned world-wide.” The complaint which can viewed here, stated, “During an episode of Eating Media Lunch, broadcast on TV2 at 10pm on 2 November 2007, the message “Kill Yourself Now” was displayed on the screen just before the programme’s opening credits. The message was only visible for a fraction of a second.”
TVNZ assessed the complaint under Standards 1, 2, 8 and 9, and guideline 8b of the Free-to-Air Television Code of Broadcasting Practice. which are:
Standard 1 Good Taste and Decency In the preparation and presentation of programmes, broadcasters are responsible for maintaining standards which are consistent with the observance of good taste and decency. Standard 2 Law and Order In the preparation and presentation of programmes, broadcasters are responsible for maintaining standards which are consistent with the maintenance of law and order. Standard 8 Programme Information Broadcasters are responsible for ensuring that programme information and structure does not deceive or disadvantage the viewer. Guideline 8b Broadcasters should not use the process known as “subliminal perception” or any other technique which attempts to convey information to the viewer by transmitting messages below or near the threshold of normal awareness. Standard 9 Children’s Interests During children’s normally accepted viewing times broadcasters are required, in the preparation and presentation of programmes, to consider the interests of child viewers.
The complaints filed by Bennett specifically were: “standards of good taste and decency, law and order, programme information and children’s interests had been breached. He argued that the message “Kill Yourself Now” had flashed onto the screen in a subliminal manner. He contended that the message had only lasted for “3 or 4 frames of the 25 in each second” and that “this method of subliminal advertising” had been banned world-wide.
“He had been deeply offended by the message and believed that suggesting suicide was both irresponsible and illegal. He considered that subliminal messaging was a powerful tool for implanting ideas into a viewer’s subconscious.”
“Bennett pointed out that the episode was available on TVNZ’s website and that this meant children and teenagers with access to a computer could watch the programme at any time. He stated that “children and teenagers are vulnerable and this sort of subliminal message may well push a depressed young person over the edge”.
And you’ll never guess what the decision by the Broadcasting Standards Authority was. All of the following issues were “not upheld” in other words, they BSA could not find fault with TVNZ: Standard 1 (good taste and decency) – contextual factors – not upheld Standard 2 (law and order) – item did not encourage viewers to break the law or promote, condone or glamorise criminal activity – not upheld Standard 8 (programme information) – action taken by the broadcaster sufficient – not upheld Standard 9 (children’s interests) – standard not applicable – not upheld
In short the Authority ignored Bennett’s complaint, based on the laughable defense of TVNZ which stated:
TVNZ stated that “the message had been broadcast after the introduction featuring the “coming up section” and that it was intended to be an ironic and humorous comment* on the material that was going to follow. It pointed out that during different episodes of the programme other messages of “the same ilk” had flashed up before the beginning credits including “napalm the pakeha”, “mysky = small penis” and “Tame Iti = Bin Laden?”. adding, “The broadcaster argued that the phrase was not meant to be threatening or aggressive “nor was it meant to imply that the viewer should kill themselves”. It considered that the phrase was ironic and that it would be understood as a joke by regular viewers of Eating Media Lunch. TVNZ believed that material of this nature was acceptable in the context of an AO-rated programme, which was preceded by a warning and broadcast at 10pm. It declined to uphold the good taste and decency complaint.”
TVNZ argued that “for a programme to breach this standard it must actively promote disrespect for the law. It reiterated its argument that the programme was well-known for its satirical comedy and that it often contained footage and behaviour that was challenging. It maintained that the phrase was not meant to be taken as a directive but was intended to be a humorous comment on the material that was to come. The broadcaster believed that the phrase did not promote disrespect for the law. It declined to uphold the Standard 2 complaint.
In conclusion, through first-hand eyewitness accounts (my wife included), subliminal messaging does still exist, certainly in NZ. Thanks to the internet, facts don’t go away for those that are willing to do a little research. Again, quoting Mark Twain, “A lie gets half-way around the world before Truth gets a chance to put its pants on.” I’m rooting for truth. *Emphasis added by author
