- That is charlie for hillsdale.com.
- 00:00:25.381 --> 00:00:27.283
- Doctor arne great to see you.
- 00:00:27.283 --> 00:00:28.852
- Thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us.
- 00:00:28.852 --> 00:00:31.354
- And i want to ask you an open ended question.
- 00:00:31.354 --> 00:00:33.056
- We have time to explore this together.
- 00:00:33.056 --> 00:00:35.125
- And you are a great teacher of mine and a mentor of mine.
- 00:00:35.125 --> 00:00:38.795
- But it's a question that has been raging
- 00:00:38.795 --> 00:00:40.497
- All throughout the internet.
- 00:00:40.497 --> 00:00:42.098
- The question is, what is an american doctor?
- 00:00:42.098 --> 00:00:45.201
- Arnn? what is an american?
- 00:00:45.201 --> 00:00:47.871
- Well,
- 00:00:47.871 --> 00:00:50.006
- It's a first of all, an american
- 00:00:50.006 --> 00:00:51.841
- Is a wonderful and unique thing
- 00:00:51.841 --> 00:00:54.377
- Because our country is wonderful and unique.
- 00:00:54.377 --> 00:00:57.013
- And there are two things that make it so.
- 00:00:57.013 --> 00:00:59.082
- One is it started,
- 00:00:59.082 --> 00:01:00.750
- With some principles that had never been adopted before.
- 00:01:00.750 --> 00:01:04.320
- They claim to be eternal principles,
- 00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:07.290
- And they claim to establish that we have a nature,
- 00:01:07.290 --> 00:01:10.160
- That we are created,
- 00:01:10.160 --> 00:01:12.262
- That we have rights under that nature,
- 00:01:12.262 --> 00:01:14.797
- And that we all have them, kings and commoners alike.
- 00:01:14.797 --> 00:01:19.602
- And that had never happened before.
- 00:01:19.602 --> 00:01:22.138
- And those principles, by the way, are unthinkable
- 00:01:22.138 --> 00:01:25.141
- In the ancient world.
- 00:01:25.141 --> 00:01:26.476
- And what intervened, to change that,
- 00:01:26.476 --> 00:01:29.746
- Make them necessary was the birth of jesus christ.
- 00:01:29.746 --> 00:01:33.183
- Because now
- 00:01:33.516 --> 00:01:34.651
- You're going to have a savior for everybody on earth,
- 00:01:34.651 --> 00:01:36.886
- But you have to come to him voluntarily.
- 00:01:36.886 --> 00:01:40.256
- And so many people who came to
- 00:01:40.256 --> 00:01:42.559
- This country came to escape religious persecution,
- 00:01:42.559 --> 00:01:46.429
- And they figured out how not to do that.
- 00:01:46.429 --> 00:01:49.365
- So that's the first thing, something unprecedented,
- 00:01:49.365 --> 00:01:52.335
- Something eternal, but never adopted before.
- 00:01:52.335 --> 00:01:55.972
- The second thing
- 00:01:56.372 --> 00:01:57.073
- Is our experience on this land.
- 00:01:57.073 --> 00:01:59.709
- The founders were very taken with the continent.
- 00:01:59.709 --> 00:02:03.546
- Not until lewis and clark in the
- 00:02:04.247 --> 00:02:07.050
- First decade of the 19th century,
- 00:02:07.050 --> 00:02:09.152
- Did they know how big the continent was.
- 00:02:09.152 --> 00:02:11.154
- Have any direct report of it?
- 00:02:11.154 --> 00:02:13.590
- But they knew it was big, and they knew they could
- 00:02:13.590 --> 00:02:16.292
- Carve a life out for it.
- 00:02:16.292 --> 00:02:18.261
- So americans are the greatest builders on earth.
- 00:02:18.261 --> 00:02:21.731
- And, you know, elon musk and palmer
- 00:02:21.731 --> 00:02:24.634
- Luckey and alex karp are lately,
- 00:02:24.634 --> 00:02:26.869
- I think,
- 00:02:26.869 --> 00:02:28.004
- The american, the pillar of american national defense
- 00:02:28.004 --> 00:02:31.174
- Because they're builders.
- 00:02:31.174 --> 00:02:32.442
- They just do it on their own,
- 00:02:32.442 --> 00:02:33.743
- And they think it up and they do it.
- 00:02:33.743 --> 00:02:36.145
- And so it's the experience we have.
- 00:02:36.145 --> 00:02:38.014
- We we brought everything from europe
- 00:02:38.014 --> 00:02:41.317
- When we came over.
- 00:02:41.751 --> 00:02:42.885
- Knowledge books.
- 00:02:42.885 --> 00:02:44.420
- We didn't bring the aristocracy.
- 00:02:45.121 --> 00:02:47.390
- And we got a new land and we got to settle satellite.
- 00:02:47.390 --> 00:02:50.893
- And we're still like that, i think.
- 00:02:50.893 --> 00:02:52.795
- And that's what politics is about today.
- 00:02:52.795 --> 00:02:55.031
- By the way, are we like that or are we past that now?
- 00:02:55.031 --> 00:02:59.402
- Are we going to adopt the old way, which is
- 00:02:59.402 --> 00:03:03.039
- Some aristocracy telling us how to live our lives?
- 00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:06.843
- And that's what the political fights are about today.
- 00:03:06.843 --> 00:03:09.512
- But america is,
- 00:03:09.512 --> 00:03:11.014
- You know, thomas jefferson and abraham lincoln both
- 00:03:11.014 --> 00:03:14.317
- Called it the last, best hope of mankind on earth.
- 00:03:14.317 --> 00:03:17.620
- And it is still that today.
- 00:03:18.221 --> 00:03:20.356
- So, doctor, allow me to to ask a little bit
- 00:03:20.356 --> 00:03:23.159
- More of a boundary pushing question.
- 00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:26.562
- Let's just take a kid right now in beijing.
- 00:03:26.562 --> 00:03:29.365
- He has a u.s.
- 00:03:29.365 --> 00:03:30.199
- Passport because his mom flew over
- 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.069
- When she was eight months pregnant, landed in
- 00:03:33.069 --> 00:03:35.405
- San francisco, and, was born in a san francisco hospital.
- 00:03:35.405 --> 00:03:40.009
- He got a citizenship certificate.
- 00:03:40.009 --> 00:03:42.445
- And then his mom flew back to beijing.
- 00:03:42.445 --> 00:03:44.781
- And he is being raised in china.
- 00:03:44.781 --> 00:03:46.983
- He is a u.s.
- 00:03:46.983 --> 00:03:48.184
- Citizen, even though he's never been raised here, doesn't
- 00:03:48.184 --> 00:03:50.553
- Go to our schools, doesn't know the national anthem,
- 00:03:50.553 --> 00:03:53.089
- But because his mom came here and he is basically
- 00:03:53.089 --> 00:03:55.992
- An anchor baby, is this kid in china?
- 00:03:55.992 --> 00:03:59.062
- Is he an american just because he has his paperwork?
- 00:03:59.062 --> 00:04:02.298
- No. and
- 00:04:02.532 --> 00:04:04.634
- There's a the source of that confusion,
- 00:04:04.634 --> 00:04:07.603
- Comes from a common law tradition.
- 00:04:07.603 --> 00:04:10.773
- You know, the english common law, which
- 00:04:10.773 --> 00:04:12.141
- Grew up over a very long time
- 00:04:12.141 --> 00:04:14.043
- Under the institution of kingship.
- 00:04:14.043 --> 00:04:16.946
- And that argument was, if you're born on the king's
- 00:04:16.946 --> 00:04:18.981
- Territory, you're a subject of the king.
- 00:04:18.981 --> 00:04:22.251
- So you're not a citizen, you're subject and
- 00:04:22.251 --> 00:04:25.121
- And so if you're born there, he claimed, you
- 00:04:25.121 --> 00:04:28.758
- America is something different.
- 00:04:29.392 --> 00:04:31.327
- America is government by consent.
- 00:04:31.327 --> 00:04:33.930
- And so america requires a set of practices and beliefs
- 00:04:33.930 --> 00:04:38.134
- In principle,
- 00:04:38.501 --> 00:04:39.569
- They make every one of us a ruler of the country.
- 00:04:39.569 --> 00:04:43.039
- But we have to be, dutiful in that
- 00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:46.109
- We have to qualify ourselves for that.
- 00:04:46.109 --> 00:04:47.677
- We have to learn what that is and requires.
- 00:04:47.677 --> 00:04:50.646
- So the idea of automatic citizenship in america
- 00:04:50.646 --> 00:04:54.884
- Is a corruption which has an older root
- 00:04:54.884 --> 00:04:58.054
- In a different kind of nation or regime
- 00:04:58.054 --> 00:05:01.991
- And which has, modern liberalism behind it.
- 00:05:01.991 --> 00:05:05.762
- Because what it wants to do
- 00:05:05.762 --> 00:05:06.996
- Is destroy all the national boundaries.
- 00:05:06.996 --> 00:05:10.566
- And then and if you do that, by the way, it's just
- 00:05:10.566 --> 00:05:13.503
- A logical fact.
- 00:05:13.503 --> 00:05:14.604
- You destroy the consent of the governed.
- 00:05:15.471 --> 00:05:17.907
- You have consent of the governed.
- 00:05:17.907 --> 00:05:19.942
- You have to have, people.
- 00:05:19.942 --> 00:05:22.311
- And if the government gets to say who the people are
- 00:05:22.311 --> 00:05:25.648
- And if it's anybody who by any accident,
- 00:05:25.648 --> 00:05:29.118
- Including birth here,
- 00:05:29.619 --> 00:05:31.954
- Can claim some connection to the country,
- 00:05:31.954 --> 00:05:33.856
- And they can make them a citizen because of that.
- 00:05:33.856 --> 00:05:36.726
- Then all of a sudden, the government's in control
- 00:05:36.726 --> 00:05:38.895
- Of who the people are,
- 00:05:38.895 --> 00:05:39.996
- And then the people are not in a position
- 00:05:39.996 --> 00:05:41.597
- To give their consent.
- 00:05:41.597 --> 00:05:43.032
- What should our expectations be of newcomers?
- 00:05:43.032 --> 00:05:45.768
- What should the what what should we expect?
- 00:05:45.768 --> 00:05:48.404
- What should their obligations
- 00:05:48.404 --> 00:05:49.739
- And their duties be to then become an american?
- 00:05:49.739 --> 00:05:53.376
- I feel as if we have no expectations for newcomers.
- 00:05:53.376 --> 00:05:56.546
- In fact, we have the opposite.
- 00:05:56.546 --> 00:05:58.114
- We have.
- 00:05:58.114 --> 00:05:59.182
- They have entitlement. when many of them come here.
- 00:05:59.182 --> 00:06:00.983
- The question i suppose i have is what?
- 00:06:01.818 --> 00:06:04.821
- What should the agreed upon ideal criteria
- 00:06:04.821 --> 00:06:07.590
- Be of when someone is able to prove that
- 00:06:07.590 --> 00:06:11.127
- They become an american citizen or an american?
- 00:06:11.127 --> 00:06:14.297
- Part of this incredible republic?
- 00:06:14.297 --> 00:06:17.133
- You know, the principles and practices for that,
- 00:06:18.100 --> 00:06:21.037
- Are in place right now.
- 00:06:21.037 --> 00:06:23.206
- They're just ignore, the way you get naturalized.
- 00:06:23.206 --> 00:06:28.544
- That's an interesting word, by the way.
- 00:06:28.544 --> 00:06:30.213
- That word nature comes from the latin word for birth.
- 00:06:30.213 --> 00:06:34.250
- And to be naturalized is to be, to be, okay.
- 00:06:34.250 --> 00:06:41.457
- If you're made to have born here now like that,
- 00:06:41.457 --> 00:06:43.860
- You move on a citizen. well, how do you do it?
- 00:06:43.860 --> 00:06:46.128
- You got to work for time, years.
- 00:06:46.128 --> 00:06:49.198
- You have to obey the law and you have to pass the test.
- 00:06:49.198 --> 00:06:52.201
- And the test is about what the country is,
- 00:06:52.201 --> 00:06:54.704
- How it's governed, how it works.
- 00:06:54.704 --> 00:06:57.073
- And so that in principle, anybody can do that.
- 00:06:57.073 --> 00:07:01.344
- Any race, any place, anybody.
- 00:07:01.344 --> 00:07:04.080
- Now in practice,
- 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.415
- Because we have the right to consent to our government,
- 00:07:06.415 --> 00:07:10.453
- We have we have the right and the and the
- 00:07:10.453 --> 00:07:12.889
- The duty to decide how many right.
- 00:07:12.889 --> 00:07:16.259
- Wide open is one choice.
- 00:07:16.792 --> 00:07:19.362
- We've made that at various times in our past,
- 00:07:19.362 --> 00:07:21.898
- Never continuously and then more.
- 00:07:21.898 --> 00:07:24.834
- Restricted is a choice.
- 00:07:24.834 --> 00:07:26.702
- But whether wide open or more restricted,
- 00:07:26.702 --> 00:07:29.305
- The way to become a citizen is to adopt the practices
- 00:07:29.305 --> 00:07:32.975
- And beliefs of america and demonstrate that,
- 00:07:32.975 --> 00:07:36.345
- The kind of government we set up in the declaration
- 00:07:36.345 --> 00:07:38.481
- Of independence, the constitutio
- 00:07:38.481 --> 00:07:42.084
- And what we did
- 00:07:42.451 --> 00:07:43.319
- Through many trials
- 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.188
- Was we extended that way of government
- 00:07:46.188 --> 00:07:48.558
- All the way across the country, the continent,
- 00:07:48.558 --> 00:07:52.128
- In the beginning, not knowing how big the continent was
- 00:07:52.128 --> 00:07:55.064
- In the beginning, naming the army that that won
- 00:07:55.064 --> 00:07:57.567
- The revolutionary war, the continental army
- 00:07:57.567 --> 00:08:00.469
- And all of the new places came in with the same rights
- 00:08:00.469 --> 00:08:04.840
- And the same representation as the original 13.
- 00:08:04.840 --> 00:08:08.277
- And that's an amazingly generous act
- 00:08:08.277 --> 00:08:11.714
- And an a service to the principle of equality.
- 00:08:11.714 --> 00:08:14.584
- That was fabulous.
- 00:08:15.017 --> 00:08:16.552
- But you could only serve those principles
- 00:08:16.552 --> 00:08:19.488
- If you lived the life to serve those principles,
- 00:08:19.488 --> 00:08:22.124
- Because they carry the duties of citizenship with.
- 00:08:22.124 --> 00:08:25.795
- Doctor arnn, god bless you.
- 00:08:26.395 --> 00:08:27.663
- Thank you for your contribution to this country.
- 00:08:27.663 --> 00:08:29.432
- Wonderful as always.
- 00:08:29.432 --> 00:08:30.533
- Everyone should take the online
- 00:08:30.533 --> 00:08:31.767
- Courses at charlie for hillsdale.com.
- 00:08:31.767 --> 00:08:33.970
- Doctor owen, thank you so much.
- 00:08:33.970 --> 00:08:36.138
- Thank you charlie. it's
- 00:08:36.138 --> 00:08:42.111
- In genesis
- 00:08:42.411 --> 00:08:43.312
- 12 three, god made a powerful promise
- 00:08:43.312 --> 00:08:45.948
- To abraham, the father of the jewish people.
- 00:08:45.948 --> 00:08:49.151
- I will bless those who bless you.
- 00:08:49.151 --> 00:08:52.355
- The christian bible tells us
- 00:08:52.355 --> 00:08:53.889
- That we have been grafted into god's family tree.
- 00:08:53.889 --> 00:08:56.859
- The rich olive tree of israel,
- 00:08:56.859 --> 00:08:59.261
- The very foundations of the christian faith,
- 00:08:59.261 --> 00:09:01.664
- The bible and jesus, whom christians call
- 00:09:01.664 --> 00:09:04.266
- The messiah, are deeply rooted in israel.
- 00:09:04.266 --> 00:09:07.737
- Supporting israel aligns christians with god's
- 00:09:07.737 --> 00:09:10.373
- Prophetic timeline.
- 00:09:10.373 --> 00:09:11.741
- It demonstrates our willingness to be instruments of
- 00:09:11.741 --> 00:09:14.977
- God's blessing, uplifting his chosen people,
- 00:09:14.977 --> 00:09:18.547
- And it calls us to confront and heal
- 00:09:18.547 --> 00:09:20.850
- The centuries old wounds of anti-semitism.
- 00:09:20.850 --> 00:09:23.886
- The scripture says how good and how
- 00:09:23.886 --> 00:09:26.322
- Pleasant it is when brethren dwell together.
- 00:09:26.322 --> 00:09:29.625

- Mary great to see you.
- 00:09:55.853 --> 00:09:57.155
- I know you've been trying
- 00:09:57.155 --> 00:09:58.022
- To schedule this for quite some time.
- 00:09:58.022 --> 00:09:59.857
- Mary, you do some very important work.
- 00:09:59.857 --> 00:10:03.061
- Why don't you introduce yourself
- 00:10:03.061 --> 00:10:04.462
- And your organization to our audience?
- 00:10:04.462 --> 00:10:06.164
- For those that might not be familiar.
- 00:10:06.164 --> 00:10:08.299
- Sure. pleasure to be here, charlie.
- 00:10:08.299 --> 00:10:10.068
- Thank you.
- 00:10:10.068 --> 00:10:11.202
- So, children's health defense was founded by robert
- 00:10:11.202 --> 00:10:14.072
- F kennedy jr, now the secretary of health and human services.
- 00:10:14.072 --> 00:10:17.742
- Back in about 2016.
- 00:10:17.742 --> 00:10:20.511
- And it is devoted to making sure that people understand
- 00:10:20.511 --> 00:10:24.382
- What are the toxic exposures that are causing
- 00:10:24.382 --> 00:10:27.418
- The chronic epidemic,
- 00:10:27.418 --> 00:10:29.020
- The epidemic of chronic health in children
- 00:10:29.020 --> 00:10:31.389
- To hold the culprits accountable
- 00:10:31.389 --> 00:10:33.424
- And to put in place safeguards
- 00:10:33.424 --> 00:10:34.892
- So that this doesn't happen again.
- 00:10:34.892 --> 00:10:36.794
- So we have a free newsletter.
- 00:10:36.794 --> 00:10:38.563
- Called the defender at children's health defense.org.
- 00:10:38.563 --> 00:10:42.166
- We have a streaming platform that we run every day.
- 00:10:42.166 --> 00:10:45.303
- We do original science and we do litigation to support
- 00:10:45.303 --> 00:10:49.340
- Children's health.
- 00:10:49.340 --> 00:10:50.374
- We focus right now on vaccines and vaccine injury
- 00:10:50.374 --> 00:10:53.678
- And mandates and exemptions
- 00:10:53.678 --> 00:10:55.580
- And also on electromagnetic radiation.
- 00:10:55.580 --> 00:10:57.915
- We definitely think
- 00:10:57.915 --> 00:10:59.117
- That people do not fully,
- 00:10:59.117 --> 00:11:00.518
- Adequately understand the hazards of the radiation
- 00:11:00.518 --> 00:11:03.554
- We're all being exposed to, and particularly children.
- 00:11:03.554 --> 00:11:06.591
- Let's start with the second component there.
- 00:11:06.591 --> 00:11:09.327
- What do you mean by electromagnetic radiation?
- 00:11:09.327 --> 00:11:11.696
- You mean wi-fi.
- 00:11:11.696 --> 00:11:13.030
- And what what evidence?
- 00:11:13.030 --> 00:11:14.298
- What studies do you have to support
- 00:11:14.298 --> 00:11:17.702
- How that might be hurting our children?
- 00:11:17.702 --> 00:11:19.971
- Sure.
- 00:11:19.971 --> 00:11:21.005
- So basically, charlie, the laws went into effect
- 00:11:21.005 --> 00:11:24.342
- In the early 1990s ahead of, you know, widespread
- 00:11:24.342 --> 00:11:27.979
- Use of wi-fi and tablets and cell phones
- 00:11:27.979 --> 00:11:31.115
- And laptops and computers.
- 00:11:31.115 --> 00:11:34.886
- There's just been an explosion going from 3g
- 00:11:34.886 --> 00:11:37.221
- To 4g to 5g working now on 67 g.
- 00:11:37.221 --> 00:11:41.058
- And there's a tremendous amount of science showing
- 00:11:41.058 --> 00:11:43.594
- That, especially for developing children,
- 00:11:43.594 --> 00:11:46.464
- The level of radiation that we're being exposed to,
- 00:11:46.464 --> 00:11:49.066
- Especially things like wi-fi and antennas and cell
- 00:11:49.066 --> 00:11:51.836
- Towers, is is harmful to some people.
- 00:11:51.836 --> 00:11:54.906
- And so, unfortunately, the law that was passed,
- 00:11:54.906 --> 00:11:58.342
- The telecommunications act in the late 1990s
- 00:11:58.342 --> 00:12:01.612
- Basically preempted a federal law, preempts
- 00:12:01.612 --> 00:12:04.949
- Any kind of changes at the local level,
- 00:12:04.949 --> 00:12:08.419
- The city or the municipality or the state level.
- 00:12:08.419 --> 00:12:11.355
- And so we're working on that right now.
- 00:12:11.355 --> 00:12:13.558
- Basically, people who have a cell tower
- 00:12:13.558 --> 00:12:15.927
- Put right next to their house, and it's causing
- 00:12:15.927 --> 00:12:17.929
- Strokes or tinnitus or heart attacks or cancer.
- 00:12:17.929 --> 00:12:21.666
- And all of those things are real.
- 00:12:21.666 --> 00:12:23.367
- They need to be able to have some ability
- 00:12:23.367 --> 00:12:26.237
- To organize and say, no, you can't put it here.
- 00:12:26.237 --> 00:12:28.940
- You can put it someplace else where it's not going
- 00:12:28.940 --> 00:12:30.908
- To harm people in a residential community.
- 00:12:30.908 --> 00:12:33.110
- So we have, something called 704, no more.
- 00:12:33.110 --> 00:12:35.546
- It's section 704 of the telecommunications act,
- 00:12:35.546 --> 00:12:39.317
- And we're challenging that, that basically
- 00:12:39.317 --> 00:12:41.719
- State and local governments have no say in these
- 00:12:41.719 --> 00:12:45.056
- Radiation exposures that can be very harmful.
- 00:12:45.056 --> 00:12:48.125
- So bobby kennedy is the secretary
- 00:12:48.125 --> 00:12:50.661
- Of health and human services.
- 00:12:50.661 --> 00:12:51.729
- He worked with your organization for some time.
- 00:12:51.729 --> 00:12:53.865
- Is that right?
- 00:12:53.865 --> 00:12:55.132
- And how did you get interested in all this?
- 00:12:55.132 --> 00:12:57.869
- I find that those stories always to be something he
- 00:12:57.869 --> 00:13:01.072
- I believe he founded, actually the children's health defense.
- 00:13:01.072 --> 00:13:03.841
- And now you're carrying the torch forward.
- 00:13:03.841 --> 00:13:06.377
- Tell us about that story. sure.
- 00:13:06.377 --> 00:13:09.113
- So actually, bobby
- 00:13:09.113 --> 00:13:11.415
- Was is an environmental lawyer, and,
- 00:13:11.415 --> 00:13:15.019
- He often tells the story that when he was on the,
- 00:13:15.019 --> 00:13:17.622
- You know, sort of giving
- 00:13:17.622 --> 00:13:18.556
- Lectures about mercury toxicity and water,
- 00:13:18.556 --> 00:13:22.093
- Moms would come up to him and say, you know,
- 00:13:22.093 --> 00:13:24.161
- If you really care about this
- 00:13:24.161 --> 00:13:25.396
- Mercury toxicity issue, you gotta look at vaccines.
- 00:13:25.396 --> 00:13:28.966
- And so he finally did.
- 00:13:28.966 --> 00:13:30.501
- And then he went on the board of something
- 00:13:30.501 --> 00:13:32.003
- Called the world mercury project.
- 00:13:32.003 --> 00:13:33.938
- And then it would changed into children's health defense.
- 00:13:33.938 --> 00:13:36.641
- It's not just mercury.
- 00:13:36.641 --> 00:13:37.975
- That's the only problem in vaccines
- 00:13:37.975 --> 00:13:39.977
- Or the only exposures from all kinds of different sources.
- 00:13:39.977 --> 00:13:43.748
- So i came on the board at children's
- 00:13:43.748 --> 00:13:45.416
- Health events in 2018.
- 00:13:45.416 --> 00:13:46.684
- I'm the mom of a young adult, son who's on the autism
- 00:13:46.684 --> 00:13:50.321
- Spectrum, who was vaccine injured.
- 00:13:50.321 --> 00:13:52.556
- And, so i worked on the board and then came on as general
- 00:13:52.556 --> 00:13:56.127
- Counsel in 2019, became president in 2021,
- 00:13:56.127 --> 00:13:59.931
- Briefly worked on bobby's campaign,
- 00:13:59.931 --> 00:14:01.832
- But came back as president in 2023.
- 00:14:01.832 --> 00:14:05.136
- And, carrying the torch.
- 00:14:05.136 --> 00:14:07.238
- But with many others, we have, a robust staff.
- 00:14:07.238 --> 00:14:10.675
- And as i say, we work in four different areas
- 00:14:10.675 --> 00:14:13.010
- Education, advocacy, litigation and science.
- 00:14:13.010 --> 00:14:15.913
- Yeah.
- 00:14:16.147 --> 00:14:16.514
- And i was
- 00:14:16.514 --> 00:14:17.348
- You know, i've been in this space
- 00:14:17.348 --> 00:14:18.449
- For 13 years in the conservative movement.
- 00:14:18.449 --> 00:14:20.551
- And i was always struck by when i spoke
- 00:14:20.551 --> 00:14:22.386
- At these events, therapy,
- 00:14:22.386 --> 00:14:23.988
- These moms with
- 00:14:23.988 --> 00:14:25.489
- Piles of documents trying to get my attention around this.
- 00:14:25.489 --> 00:14:29.293
- This was before covid, and i was always so struck
- 00:14:29.293 --> 00:14:32.096
- By the passion and the intensity.
- 00:14:32.096 --> 00:14:34.966
- Mary, i want to get your reaction to this piece of tape.
- 00:14:34.966 --> 00:14:37.068
- This is bobby kennedy, who says he has found
- 00:14:37.068 --> 00:14:39.837
- And were finding interventions that are almost certainly
- 00:14:39.837 --> 00:14:42.940
- Causing autism. let's pay cut for 33
- 00:14:42.940 --> 00:14:46.377
- Finding,
- 00:14:46.644 --> 00:14:47.478
- Interventions, certain interventions
- 00:14:47.478 --> 00:14:50.448
- Now that are clearly almost certainly causing autism.
- 00:14:50.448 --> 00:14:54.719
- And we're going to be able to address those in
- 00:14:55.686 --> 00:14:57.388
- September to 1 in 10,000.
- 00:14:57.388 --> 00:15:00.458
- And now it's 131 or 30 4 or 12.
- 00:15:00.458 --> 00:15:03.561
- If it's a boy, can you imagine that?
- 00:15:03.561 --> 00:15:05.896
- And that was 1 in 10,000
- 00:15:05.896 --> 00:15:08.866
- Not so long ago.
- 00:15:08.866 --> 00:15:11.369
- Mary, two questions.
- 00:15:11.369 --> 00:15:12.803
- Number one, what could it be that bobby is alluding to?
- 00:15:12.803 --> 00:15:15.573
- Number two, the skeptics would say
- 00:15:15.573 --> 00:15:18.776
- No, we've just changed the way that we are formulating it,
- 00:15:18.776 --> 00:15:22.480
- That we are changing the way that we are
- 00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.615
- Formulating or tabulating, i should say, autism.
- 00:15:24.615 --> 00:15:28.886
- It's not that more people have autism.
- 00:15:28.886 --> 00:15:31.055
- It's that we're changing
- 00:15:31.055 --> 00:15:32.023
- The way that we're doing the test.
- 00:15:32.023 --> 00:15:33.290
- What is your response to those two things?
- 00:15:33.290 --> 00:15:35.893
- Well, first, i just want to say i'm thrilled that this is now
- 00:15:37.094 --> 00:15:39.797
- Being discussed at a cabinet level,
- 00:15:39.797 --> 00:15:41.532
- Because this is a national crisis, right?
- 00:15:41.532 --> 00:15:44.235
- If you have 1 in 31 kids, one in 12.5 boys in california
- 00:15:44.235 --> 00:15:47.972
- Within a couple generations, if it continues
- 00:15:47.972 --> 00:15:50.307
- At the same pace, you don't have a country,
- 00:15:50.307 --> 00:15:52.476
- This costs already trillions of dollars.
- 00:15:52.476 --> 00:15:55.246
- So i'm thrilled that it's there.
- 00:15:55.246 --> 00:15:56.680
- What is bobby kennedy likely to point to in september?
- 00:15:56.680 --> 00:15:59.517
- As he's often said, there's
- 00:15:59.517 --> 00:16:01.218
- No such thing as a genetic epidemic.
- 00:16:01.218 --> 00:16:03.287
- Obviously, there are environmental
- 00:16:03.287 --> 00:16:04.989
- Toxic exposures
- 00:16:04.989 --> 00:16:06.157
- That are
- 00:16:06.157 --> 00:16:07.391
- Causing the autism epidemic, and it may not be one factor.
- 00:16:07.391 --> 00:16:09.994
- So we look a lot.
- 00:16:09.994 --> 00:16:11.429
- My son has a diagnosis of autism, but basically
- 00:16:11.429 --> 00:16:15.099
- His early vaccines that included mercury,
- 00:16:15.099 --> 00:16:17.568
- That included aluminum that included formaldehyde
- 00:16:17.568 --> 00:16:20.037
- That include the antigens include viral viruses.
- 00:16:20.037 --> 00:16:24.075
- They they pass through the the blood brain barrier,
- 00:16:24.075 --> 00:16:26.644
- And they cause neurological damage.
- 00:16:26.644 --> 00:16:28.779
- This is what's really happening.
- 00:16:28.779 --> 00:16:30.548
- These are the facts.
- 00:16:30.548 --> 00:16:31.715
- This is not the spin.
- 00:16:31.715 --> 00:16:33.417
- This is not big pharma.
- 00:16:33.417 --> 00:16:34.718
- This is not big media.
- 00:16:34.718 --> 00:16:36.187
- This is the facts
- 00:16:36.187 --> 00:16:37.555
- Based on the records we have for medicare and medicaid.
- 00:16:37.555 --> 00:16:40.958
- Stay right there.
- 00:16:41.392 --> 00:16:42.426
- I want to talk about the grace act in a second.
- 00:16:42.426 --> 00:16:45.796
- Over the years, i've been clear about this.
- 00:16:46.697 --> 00:16:48.532
- I'm not just pro birth.
- 00:16:48.532 --> 00:16:49.600
- I'm pro-life.
- 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:50.634
- And being pro-life means standing with mothers
- 00:16:50.634 --> 00:16:52.536
- Not only before the baby is born, but long after.
- 00:16:52.536 --> 00:16:55.372
- That's exactly why i partner with preborn.
- 00:16:55.372 --> 00:16:57.842
- Preborn doesn't just save babies,
- 00:16:57.842 --> 00:16:59.477
- They make motherhood abundantly possible.
- 00:16:59.477 --> 00:17:01.378
- They provide free ultrasounds and share
- 00:17:01.378 --> 00:17:03.180
- The truth, the gospel, with women in crisis.
- 00:17:03.180 --> 00:17:05.749
- And then they stay with real practical help,
- 00:17:05.749 --> 00:17:08.385
- Including financial support for up to two years after
- 00:17:08.385 --> 00:17:10.921
- The baby is born.
- 00:17:10.921 --> 00:17:12.089
- This is what true, christ centered compassion looks like,
- 00:17:12.089 --> 00:17:15.126
- Not just for the baby, but for the mother too.
- 00:17:15.126 --> 00:17:17.361
- And here's where you can make a difference.
- 00:17:17.361 --> 00:17:19.296
- Just $28 provides a free, life saving ultrasound.
- 00:17:19.296 --> 00:17:22.533
- One chance for a mother to see her baby
- 00:17:22.533 --> 00:17:24.268
- When when she does, she's twice as likely to choose life.
- 00:17:24.268 --> 00:17:27.004
- So don't just say you're pro-life.
- 00:17:27.004 --> 00:17:28.606
- Live it. help save babies and support mothers today.
- 00:17:28.606 --> 00:17:31.242
- Go to preborn.com/charlie or call (855)â–ˆ601-2229.
- 00:17:31.242 --> 00:17:35.946
- That's preborn.com/charlie
- 00:17:35.946 --> 00:17:38.048
- Or call (855)â–ˆ601-2229 preborn.com/charlie.
- 00:17:38.048 --> 00:17:46.006
- Or call (855)â–ˆ601-2229 preborn.com/charlie.
- 00:17:46.006 --> 00:17:51.397
- Mary, i want to keep you for a little bit more time here
- 00:17:52.498 --> 00:17:54.767
- Because i think our audience is quite engaged with this.
- 00:17:54.767 --> 00:17:57.503
- What would you say
- 00:17:57.937 --> 00:17:59.639
- To some people that are concerned that
- 00:17:59.639 --> 00:18:03.009
- If we have lower vaccination rates, we'll see higher
- 00:18:03.009 --> 00:18:06.946
- Rates of, otherwise preventable diseases?
- 00:18:06.946 --> 00:18:11.551
- But one minute, mary,
- 00:18:11.551 --> 00:18:12.618
- I want to give you adequate time to answer that.
- 00:18:12.618 --> 00:18:13.986
- But please, mary holland from,
- 00:18:13.986 --> 00:18:15.454
- The children's health defense.
- 00:18:15.454 --> 00:18:17.290
- We don't.
- 00:18:17.290 --> 00:18:18.324
- We'd like to imagine that we have herd immunity
- 00:18:18.324 --> 00:18:20.626
- From these vaccines right now.
- 00:18:20.626 --> 00:18:21.928
- You know, very few,
- 00:18:21.928 --> 00:18:23.095
- Very few adults are going back to get their measles shot.
- 00:18:23.095 --> 00:18:25.998
- We have good treatments for the most severe
- 00:18:25.998 --> 00:18:28.434
- Of these childhood diseases.
- 00:18:28.434 --> 00:18:29.835
- The most transmissible is measles.
- 00:18:29.835 --> 00:18:31.804
- We know what to do if somebody gets measles.
- 00:18:31.804 --> 00:18:34.574
- I'm old enough that i had measles.
- 00:18:34.574 --> 00:18:36.542
- Every child in my family and there were many had measles.
- 00:18:36.542 --> 00:18:39.979
- People imagine that.
- 00:18:39.979 --> 00:18:41.380
- These are deathly diseases.
- 00:18:41.380 --> 00:18:43.282
- These are not deathly diseases.
- 00:18:43.282 --> 00:18:45.318
- They're really not.
- 00:18:45.318 --> 00:18:46.452
- And we have good treatments for them.
- 00:18:46.452 --> 00:18:48.354
- So yes.
- 00:18:48.354 --> 00:18:49.555
- And some people there may be a much safer vaccine schedule.
- 00:18:49.555 --> 00:18:52.892
- There may be much safer ways
- 00:18:52.892 --> 00:18:54.493
- To make vaccines with different adjuvants.
- 00:18:54.493 --> 00:18:56.963
- There's a whole opportunity here
- 00:18:56.963 --> 00:18:59.298
- That we haven't had before.
- 00:18:59.298 --> 00:19:00.299
- But in my view, the fundamental issue is
- 00:19:00.299 --> 00:19:02.368
- That people need to be able to make these choices
- 00:19:02.368 --> 00:19:04.637
- For themselves and their children.
- 00:19:04.637 --> 00:19:06.038
- The government cannot mandate an injection
- 00:19:06.038 --> 00:19:09.475
- That could kill a child, which is the reality
- 00:19:09.475 --> 00:19:12.311
- That we live with right now.
- 00:19:12.311 --> 00:19:13.679
- Mary holland, in closing here,
- 00:19:13.679 --> 00:19:14.847
- I want you to talk about the grace act.
- 00:19:14.847 --> 00:19:16.816
- What is the grace act? being sponsored
- 00:19:16.816 --> 00:19:19.151
- By representative bey, what is your, your.
- 00:19:19.151 --> 00:19:23.289
- Are you in support of this?
- 00:19:23.289 --> 00:19:24.890
- Religious exemptions from childhood vaccine mandates.
- 00:19:24.890 --> 00:19:27.727
- What is this all about?
- 00:19:27.727 --> 00:19:29.328
- Right.
- 00:19:29.328 --> 00:19:30.096
- So this is, representative stewie
- 00:19:30.096 --> 00:19:31.864
- Is going to be dropping a bill in congress.
- 00:19:31.864 --> 00:19:34.066
- He has a number of original sponsors.
- 00:19:34.066 --> 00:19:35.635
- It's call.
- 00:19:35.635 --> 00:19:36.535
- It's basically guaranteeing religion,
- 00:19:36.535 --> 00:19:38.604
- Religious rights in this state.
- 00:19:38.604 --> 00:19:40.072
- So under our first amendment to the constitution, free
- 00:19:40.072 --> 00:19:43.142
- Exercise of religion is right up there, at the very top of
- 00:19:43.142 --> 00:19:47.313
- What are our rights under the federal constitution.
- 00:19:47.313 --> 00:19:50.316
- And for states, including my home
- 00:19:50.316 --> 00:19:52.285
- State of new york,
- 00:19:52.285 --> 00:19:53.419
- Do not have any religious exemptions to vaccination.
- 00:19:53.419 --> 00:19:56.689
- 46 states do, ensuring that parents
- 00:19:56.689 --> 00:20:00.059
- Who have religious convictions against vaccines
- 00:20:00.059 --> 00:20:02.962
- For many different reasons for for my body is my temple for,
- 00:20:02.962 --> 00:20:07.566
- They don't want anything cultured.
- 00:20:07.566 --> 00:20:09.769
- An aborted fetal cell lines to they don't want anything
- 00:20:09.769 --> 00:20:12.838
- From a different species and purity of the blood.
- 00:20:12.838 --> 00:20:14.807
- Lots of different religious concerns.
- 00:20:14.807 --> 00:20:16.609
- Those parents should have the right to that opportunity
- 00:20:16.609 --> 00:20:20.046
- For their children to have them be free from vaccines.
- 00:20:20.046 --> 00:20:23.349
- And this bill would state simply
- 00:20:23.349 --> 00:20:25.685
- That this, that congress can pass this.
- 00:20:25.685 --> 00:20:28.154
- Congress has the right to enforce religious rights
- 00:20:28.154 --> 00:20:31.624
- Under the, restoration of religious freedom
- 00:20:31.624 --> 00:20:34.627
- Act, refreshed from 1993 under the first amendment.
- 00:20:34.627 --> 00:20:37.563
- And this would cut off federal education
- 00:20:37.563 --> 00:20:40.132
- Funding to any state that does not have
- 00:20:40.132 --> 00:20:43.369
- A religious exemption.
- 00:20:43.369 --> 00:20:44.670
- So a state can continue not to have a religious exemption
- 00:20:44.670 --> 00:20:48.474
- If it so chooses.
- 00:20:48.474 --> 00:20:49.442
- But it would forgo federal educational money.
- 00:20:49.442 --> 00:20:52.812
- I think it's long overdue, charlie.
- 00:20:52.812 --> 00:20:54.547
- We actually at children's
- 00:20:54.547 --> 00:20:55.881
- Health defense
- 00:20:55.881 --> 00:20:56.949
- Believe that there should be no medical mandates.
- 00:20:56.949 --> 00:20:59.485
- The idea of a medical mandate, putting the population above
- 00:20:59.485 --> 00:21:03.322
- The individual is antithetical to human rights
- 00:21:03.322 --> 00:21:06.092
- And to medical ethics.
- 00:21:06.092 --> 00:21:07.226
- So we are very clear that there should be no medical
- 00:21:07.226 --> 00:21:10.329
- Mandates whatsoever.
- 00:21:10.329 --> 00:21:11.364
- But while there are,
- 00:21:11.364 --> 00:21:12.898
- We want families to be able to opt out of them,
- 00:21:12.898 --> 00:21:16.302
- And we have a right
- 00:21:16.302 --> 00:21:17.937
- To religious freedom in this country, thankfully.
- 00:21:17.937 --> 00:21:20.840
- And so i'm very happy that children's health defense
- 00:21:20.840 --> 00:21:23.142
- Is supporting the grace act by representative stuart.
- 00:21:23.142 --> 00:21:27.413
- In closing, what other work are you doing?
- 00:21:28.280 --> 00:21:29.749
- Mary, we have a minute remaining
- 00:21:29.749 --> 00:21:30.816
- That you want our audience to be aware of.
- 00:21:30.816 --> 00:21:32.184
- What is the website? how can people get involved?
- 00:21:32.184 --> 00:21:34.587
- Because there's
- 00:21:34.587 --> 00:21:35.788
- A lot of people in our audience that are having difficulty
- 00:21:35.788 --> 00:21:38.824
- Navigating this. they have questions.
- 00:21:38.824 --> 00:21:40.393
- They don't always know what they believe about this topic,
- 00:21:40.393 --> 00:21:43.129
- But they also know that there is something wrong
- 00:21:43.129 --> 00:21:45.097
- About giving an 18 month old the covid shot.
- 00:21:45.097 --> 00:21:48.134
- I mean, that one is just ridiculous. charlie.
- 00:21:48.134 --> 00:21:50.636
- Not an 18 month old and it had been six months olds
- 00:21:50.636 --> 00:21:54.340
- That had been recommended. there's a lot going.
- 00:21:54.340 --> 00:21:56.776
- The good news here is there's a lot going on in this space.
- 00:21:56.776 --> 00:21:59.578
- So we're at children's health defense.org
- 00:21:59.578 --> 00:22:02.715
- And we have a free newsletter, the defender.
- 00:22:02.715 --> 00:22:05.117
- You can sign up for.

- We have streaming every day at 10 a.m..
- 00:22:06.218 --> 00:22:08.487
- We bring on doctors
- 00:22:08.487 --> 00:22:09.655
- And scientists and lawyers to talk about these issues.
- 00:22:09.655 --> 00:22:12.425
- And, we would welcome you.
- 00:22:12.425 --> 00:22:13.692
- And you can send in your questions.
- 00:22:13.692 --> 00:22:15.127
- We have people who answer the phone,
- 00:22:15.127 --> 00:22:16.762
- We want to be there for you and your children so
- 00:22:16.762 --> 00:22:20.232
- That you can have healthy lives
- 00:22:20.232 --> 00:22:22.134
- And you can practice your faith as you see fit.
- 00:22:22.134 --> 00:22:26.038
- Mary holland from the children's health defense.
- 00:22:26.038 --> 00:22:28.207
- Thank you for your time. talk to you soon. thank you.
- 00:22:28.207 --> 00:22:32.411
- Friends just across israel's border inside syria.
- 00:22:33.446 --> 00:22:36.582
- Entire christian and druze families have been slaughtered
- 00:22:36.582 --> 00:22:40.152
- By islamic terrorists. it's shocking.
- 00:22:40.152 --> 00:22:42.321
- It's heartbreaking.
- 00:22:42.321 --> 00:22:43.355
- And the international fellowship of christians
- 00:22:43.355 --> 00:22:45.024
- And jews
- 00:22:45.024 --> 00:22:45.724
- Is there on the ground,
- 00:22:45.724 --> 00:22:46.892
- Working hand in hand with israel and the idf to respond.
- 00:22:46.892 --> 00:22:50.062
- The fellowship has rushed in over 1500 emergency food boxes.
- 00:22:50.062 --> 00:22:54.099
- They've opened
- 00:22:54.099 --> 00:22:55.267
- A brand new medical clinic in a village that had none.
- 00:22:55.267 --> 00:22:57.403
- Truckloads of medical equipment
- 00:22:57.403 --> 00:22:58.871
- And supplies went straight to hospitals
- 00:22:58.871 --> 00:23:00.606
- Because the need is so desperate.
- 00:23:00.606 --> 00:23:02.074
- This is our faith in action.
- 00:23:02.074 --> 00:23:03.409
- Israel is stopping the terrorists.
- 00:23:03.409 --> 00:23:05.110
- Now it's on us christians and jews to care
- 00:23:05.110 --> 00:23:06.979
- For the survivors,
- 00:23:06.979 --> 00:23:07.913
- To pray for the persecuted,
- 00:23:07.913 --> 00:23:09.315
- And to stand with them against evil.
- 00:23:09.315 --> 00:23:11.083
- I'm asking you to join me in
- 00:23:11.083 --> 00:23:12.284
- Standing with the international
- 00:23:12.284 --> 00:23:13.853
- Fellowship of christians and jews, right now called ifrc.
- 00:23:13.853 --> 00:23:16.655
- Jorg that is ifrc. jorg.
- 00:23:16.655 --> 00:23:18.824
- We could meet terror with compassion.
- 00:23:18.824 --> 00:23:20.559
- We can be part of bringing food, medical help
- 00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:22.495
- And hope to christian and druze communities in syria
- 00:23:22.495 --> 00:23:25.130
- Who need it most.
- 00:23:25.130 --> 00:23:25.130
