Today, the Two Mikes and our producer Fadi spoke about the road we have traveled together to reach our 500th podcast.
We reminisced a bit about the past, but mostly discussed how lucky we have been able to speak with so many really good and smart guests, men and women who taught both us and our listeners a lot about how the world really works when you talk to genuinely knowledgeable Americans and Foreigners who love the United States and understand the beauty and worth of the U.S. Constitution.
We have gone toe-to-toe with a couple of our guests on some issues, but only one has ever refused to return. Almost needless to say we talked to that fellow about the events of January 6th, about which he knows a great deal, and we asked him to come back again, a request to which he agreed, but he never answered another of our emails. This fellow – who advertises himself as “Proud Jew” -- must have gotten a call from the ADL or AIPAC ordering him to stop speaking with the two old guys who -- unlike most recent presidents -- believe America is overwhelmingly more important than Israel.
You can take it to the bank, that over our 500 podcasts we have encountered a goodly number of this guy’s brethren who will damn and condemn us but will not agree to discuss their gripes on a podcast.
Anyway, the three of us want to thank all of our listeners for their support and comments, all of our sponsors who have made us rich – that’s not true of course – and the Lord for letting two young - older men persevere through scores of shows and be blessed with great guests and marvelous listeners.
Merry Christmas to all you, and may God protect all of you.

Today, the Two Mikes spoke for the first time with the well-known and much-respected Middle East journalist Ghadi Francis.
Ms. Francis is Lebanese and attended school in southern Lebanon, the area in which Hezbollah is largely based. She said that the West always deceitfully speaks of Hezbollah as a foreign entity in Lebanon., a sort of occupying power. It is not, she explained. Hezbollah is native to Lebanon, and is both a political party and a military organization that defends Lebanon.
Asked if she expected, at long last, that the nearby Arab tyrants would assist Hezbollah and Hamas in their attempt to finish off Israel, Ms. Francis said she did not, as they have no record of being “helpful to the Palestinians” and are clearly only interested in protecting their rule and the support of the United States government. (Ms. Francis certainly is correct about that.) Asked if she saw any chance of lasting peace if the current war with Israel is halted by a ceasefire brokered by the United States and Britain. She inferred that would only happen if Netanyahu approved, and he would only concur if such a deal would allow Israel to continue its now more than 75-year-old program of aggression, which is based on its lust to “harass and dehumanize Palestinians” as well as the theft of land belonging to Palestinians.
On the economic situation in the region, Ms. Francis said that the situation is poor for working people as the cost of most things is increasing and that food is in short supply. Wheat in particular is scarce and probably will remain that way until the war in Ukraine ends and agricultural activities there get back on track and produce wheat that can be exported.

Today, the Two Mikes interviewed Mr. Ken O’Keefe, who is retired a Marine and has long been involved in campaigns against the U.S. Government’s unending parade of interventionist wars in which no genuine national security interest is at risk. In our talk, Mr. O’Keefe was especially focused on the insanity of America supporting Israel’s current murderous war against Palestine its intention to seizure their remaining territory, and its effort to complete longstanding plans for a “Greater Israel”. Mr. O’Keefe noted that, in general terms, U.S. interventionist wars have changed the values of Americans by hardening their attitudes toward tolerating unnecessary and unending wars, and making them nearly forget the hard fact that modern wars – including those of the United States – always kill far more civilians than it does the supposed military enemy. In Israel’s wars, this is especially true because its definition of victory is territorial expansion by stealing the land of the Palestinians and killing of as many of them is possible. Since 1948, U.S. presidents and the members of both houses of Congress have knowingly accepted Israel’s bloody modus operandi and assisted its accomplishment with enormous amounts of taxpayer money and endless supplies of the best U.S.-made arms. By waging these kinds of war, the U.S. Government also has wasted the lives of thousands of Americans soldiers and Marines, and have crippled many more. These wars also have troubled the minds of some our military personnel and the Veterans Administration has been consistently derelict in supplying adequate services to America’s veterans. Indeed, 22 veterans are committing suicide every day.

Today, The Two Mikes were extremely fortunate to have the chance to speak with Dr. Ron Paul about the importance of maintaining liberty in America, and the increasingly desperate need to base U.S. foreign policy on non-intervention. Dr. Paul was as astonished as the Two Mikes at Secretary of Defense Austin officially directing members of the U.S. military to use lethal force against American citizens on American soil in “certain circumstances”. There are only two threats to the Biden Administration from its opponents among Americans and those come from its radical opposition to hearing the truth spoken – which Biden appears to believe is treason – and the coming presidential election. Neither provides any basis whatsoever for Austin’s order, which is nothing less than an abomination. Dr. Paul also spoke of the necessity for conservatives to better verse themselves in the meaning of liberty. On two occasions since 1960 – the Democrats’ counter-culturalism of the Vietnam era, and the war waged against American traditions, history, faith, and culture by the Democrats since the Clinton administration – the American population gradually grew to be fed up with the nonsense, depravity, power-hungriness, avarice, and criminality that was pushed in the name of “progressivism”. They elected Ronald Reagan to end the first demented era, and they now have the chance to elect Trump for a second (third?) time to end this depraved and war-mad second iteration of progressivism. Dr. Paul reminded us that the path for America’s future laid out by American founders remains as pertinent, useful, and nation-saving as when they walked the earth. Government, the Founders knew, should remain close to the people, a place where citizens can watch its actions closely and keep them on the mark. They likewise taught the irrefutable reality that oversized and arrogant central government – built by taking away the constitutional powers of state and local governments -- always will spend beyond its means, wage unnecessary wars, bankrupt the nation, limit civil rights, and generally oppress those portions of the population it hates or speaks against it and reward enormously reward those who do its bidding. Americans need to get a much stronger grasp on and love for the foundations of the United States, for the men who built the republic, and relearn to love and work to protect their own homes and localities and make them happy, secure, liberty-prone, and prosperous. In closing, Dr. Paul noted that most of the Founders – even those who eventually went to university – started off their education at the hands of their parents and the books they owned. He described it as a sort of “home schooling on steroids.” In an era where homeschooling in America is quickly growing, those doing the arduous work of home-schooling may have found the way to slow and then ultimately end the growing and potentially fatal malignancies that now emanate from all levels of the nation’s educational systems.

Today, The Two Mikes had the pleasure of talking with Tom DiLorenzo, who is now President of the Mises Institute for Austrian Economics (https://mises.org/) in Auburn, Alabama. The The institute is named after Ludwig van Mises, who was one of the most notable economists and social philosophers of the 20th Century. Before becoming the president of the Institute, Dr. DiLorenzo was a longtime university professor in the field of economics. He has written several books on economics and three outstanding, persuasive, and marvelously controversial, Revisionist Histories of Abraham Lincoln: The Real Lincoln: A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War; Lincoln Unmasked: What You’re Not Supposed to Know About Dishonest Abe; and The Problem with Lincoln.

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed back and spoke with the renowned economist and Libertarian, Murray Sabrin. He also is closely connected to the splendid Mises Institute, whose “Annual Summit” will be held in Hilton Head, North Carolina, on 10-12 October 2024. Not surprisingly, Professor Sabrin said the U.S. government is behaving and spending as if there is no one at the wheel. He said in less than a single term the Biden administration has added $11 billion to the national debt, and shows no sign of slowing that pace during the last month of its term. While it is true that the November, 2024, election is yet another case of Republicans-vs-Democrats, Mr. Sabrin argued that underlying that situation is a much more important contest, one that pits liberty against the horrors of tyrannical statist authoritarianism. On this score, we discussed Climate Tsar John Kerry’s recent call for an end to the First Amendment, because free speech is making it “too hard to govern.” In reality, what Kerry came close to saying is that the “truth” so easily available in the alternative and social media makes it harder for governments to oppress their populations so as to pave the way for something worse than a 1984 tyranny. We also briefly discussed the use of “Executive Orders” by the President (any president) and the Congressional delegation of its sole responsibility for declaring war to the president through the bills like “Authorization of the Use of Military Force”. The latter makes the president an uncontrollable warlord rather than the republic’s chief magistrate. There clearly is nothing in the Constitution that authorizes either executive orders or a delegation by the Congress of its war powers to the president. The last point, of course, means that none of the wars America has fought since 1945 – big or small – have been constitutional. They all have been products of the will of a Warlord, and not that of the legitimate constitutional process.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke to historical expert A.J. Sanchez, whose field of study is the so-called ten lost tribes of Israel, which, as it turns out, are quite far from lost.
Mr. Sanchez explained that one of the great problems with contemporary historical research is that the universities have deliberately created faculties that are poisoned by wokeism and a talent for durable deceit whenever the issue is about God and religion.
Mr. Sanchez noted that, on average, most universities in the West have a ratio of 12 liberal/atheist professors for every 1 conservative professor. Further, in a large number of university-taught fields, the reality is that 100 percent of professors are liberal/atheists. It is only when you look at the engineering disciplines that there is a stronger percentage of conservatives, who, of course, are not writers of history. Even if they were, most Western publishers have little or no interest in publishing books dealing with religion and God, which are important issues of historical issues. Between the universities and major Western publishers, the historical data about this issue has remained well and truly buried.
In his own studies, Mr. Sanchez has found that there is a large amount of evidence regarding the ten lost tribes. Both in the Middle East and Europe, he found a great many pertinent sources such as manuscripts, books – most published before 1850 – and engraved stone tablets. The short version of the story, which has been suppressed since 1850 is that the ten tribes departed what was then the northern section of contemporary Israel, moved further into the Middle East and later, from there moved into Europe, particularly into Scotland, Ireland, France, and, to a lesser extent, Spain.
Archives in these countries contain many documents and artifacts that are pertinent to identifying the stories and ultimate locations of the so-called ten lost tribes. In essence, there is strong evidence that the ten lost tribes were the peoples who are now known as Celtic and Gaelic. The ancient Greeks, for example, called the ten tribes Celts, and the ancient Romans called them Gauls. France of course was once called Gaul and spoke Gaelic. These people share languages that – while not identical – share large numbers of words, and also share words that are present in English and in German dialects.
The bottom line is that the ten tribes do not seem to be lost. Indeed, the ancient Jewish historian Josephus appears to have been fully accurate when he said that those ten tribes did not disappear.
The Two Mikes closed this discussion with A.J. Sanchez at just short of 60 minutes. There is, however, much more to find out and discuss about the ten lost tribes and we will have him back on the podcast so he can speak more about his research.

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed back Chad Stewart, the author of the Britfield series of novels -- and soon movies -- for middle-schoolers.
Mr. Stewart reported that the fourth book in his series -- titled Britfield and the Eastern Empire -- will be published in 2025, just as the lead characters -- Tom and Sarah -- reach age 15 and are learning the pros and cons of modernity as they are found in such things as AI and digital currencies.
The first installment of seven Britfield movies also is scheduled to go into pre-production in November, 2026. Mr. Stewart noted that the movie will be set in the Christmas season. Mr. Stewart also said that the first three books in the series continue to do very well, and began to be published in Britain in June 2024.
The books also are being translated and published in Polish; the first volume is already in book shops. Other foreign publishers are planning to publish the books in additional languages. Mr. Stewart said that the first three volumes of the series continue to sell well and are being used by teachers in an increasing number of schools -- now numbering in the thousands -- in the United States. Just as important, Mr. Stewart said that he continues to receive letters from parents explaining how much their middle-schoolers enjoy the books and how much they learn from them.
Often, the parents also say how much they enjoyed the books. Mr. Stewart noted that he and his crew love hearing this kind of thing because the Britfield series is meant to provide a positive experience for children and families to help counteract many of the current books for youngsters which often feature negativity, poor conduct, and leave the child disconnected from reality, feeling less than what he or she is because of a lack of superpowers or some other non-existent attribute, and often poison young minds with cultism or other deranged ideas.
The websites for Mr. Stewart's Britfield projects are: https://www.britfield.com/ and https://www.britfieldinstitute.org/

Today, the Two Mikes again spoke with Joe Lombardi, the Founder and Managing Partner of
Iron Hawk Financial about the current state of the U.S. economy. As all of us know, Mr. Lombardi said, things are not good economically, and he said that over the next six-to-twelve months we are all going to feel even more pain. The Congress’s egregious and absurd over-spending has put America in debt to the sum of $35 trillion dollars, and in terms of unfunded liabilities Americans’ face another $218 trillion. Mr. Lombardi also suggested that people refrain from viewing view Bitcoin as being “too big to fail” because it is not, it was created by the U.S.
Government and the CIA and those entities will also decide how long it lasts. And there seems no limit to the fiscal irresponsibility of the both parties in Congress. In addition, he noted that car repossessions are also up about 300-percent over the past year. Faced with this kind of pending economic collapse, Mr. Lombardi suggested that citizens think about investing in mutual insurance companies as a means of protecting their money. He explained that, over the past 180 years, mutual insurance companies have come through all of the wars and economic downturns without having lost money. A person’s investments in these insurance companies also are easily accessible and tax free.
There are not a lot of options for the average person to protect their money, but this is one that is available to all Americans and ought to be considered. Mr. Lombardi concluded by offering to send PDF copies of his three books – all focused on helping people to protect and increase their money -- for free to those who send an e-mail asking for them. The Two Mikes look forward to Mr. Lombardi return to the show.

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed the return of Twila Brase, a distinguished, longtime
professional nurse and one of the county’s most articulate champions of returning control of
medical care to the citizens of America. Ms. Brase said that all Americans are coming close to
the dead-end for the country’s current medical system; the Medicare Trust Fund, just as the
Social Security Trust Fund, is non-existent. This fact is made worse because the number of
people working in the United States is decreasing as the last of the massive postwar “baby-
boomer generation retires”. As night follows day, fewer workers means less payroll taxes,
leaving the government with a choice between higher taxes or more frequent denial of
treatment. The politicians probably will do both. The national government is now paying for
both programs directly from the payroll-tax funds paid by workers Ms. Brase said that in 2022
the federal government’s Medicare plans confronted the reality that the cost of the plans was
$55 billion dollars more than the funds that came in from the payroll taxes paid by American
workers. Recent estimates show that by 2036 the entire national medical system will go “belly-
up”. For that reason, the national government’s socialist medical system already has increased
the ability of the federal bureaucracy, the medical profession, and medical insurers to deny
access to treatment, a money saver and death sentence for those who are denied. Ms. Brase
said that it is critical that all Americans must accept the fact that “freedom from Medicare is
needed if they are ever again to have freedom of medical choice.” Ms. Brase closed by saying
that she also is helping to push legislation that calls for the end to all DEI (Diversity, Equity and
Inclusion) initiatives in medical schools, rightly identifying those initiatives as bringing both the
death-kneel of competence, while also encouraging those being trained as doctors to
discriminate between sexes and racial groups in their provision of medical services.

Today, the Two Mikes welcomed back Geoff Shepard, who is a distinguished lawyer and, a half-century ago, was the youngest lawyer working in President Nixon’s White House. In that position, he had a birds-eye view of the then unfolding “Water Gate” issue, which was capped with Nixon’s resignation on 8 August 1974. Recently, Mr. Shepard has been part of a team which has produced a new documentary that is primarily based on the three books about Nixon’s fall that Mr. Shepard has written, each of which is based on the government papers, personal diaries, and court documents that he discovered via research and FOIA requests – most of which have not previously seen the light of day. Mr. Shepard and his team have now taken all of that work and information and produced a documentary – running a bit more than an hour -- called “Watergate’s Secrets and Betrayals Orchestrating Nixon’s Demise”. It is now available on its own website, https://www.watergatesecrets.com and can be watched for free. The film details a process by which the U.S. Department of Justice, several federal judges, and many anti-Nixon lawyers and mainstream media did indeed cooperate and conspire to overthrow Nixon. There surely was a Watergate crime, this film is not denial of that fact. But the U.S. legal authorities, the NY Times, and the Newsweek and Time magazines were all virulently anti-Nixon. The DOJ hired a force of 92 people to set-up Nixon – 60 of them lawyers, 17 of whom had been DOJ lawyers under John Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson -- and they engaged in a prolonged and surreptitious anti-Nixon campaign that today would be called “lawfare”, similar to the torturous and illegal process that Trump has experienced. For example, prosecutors in the case against Nixon met secretly with judges overseeing the case and discussed how the trial should be planned and conducted. The prosecutors, for example, met ten times with Judge Sirica, the lead judge in the case. Another revealing example is the Senate’s agreement that the investigation would focus solely on Nixon’s 1972 election campaign, and would not touch anything that dealt with the 1968, 1964, and 1960 elections, the latter, of course, has long been said to have been corrupted in favor of Kennedy. In sum, these illegal activities can only be seen as a conspiracy against Nixon, and, for the first time, the American people can now see how that attack and overthrow on the president occurred, and the story is told on the basis of unimpeachable evidence that shows how Nixon’s presidency was scuttled after an illegal campaign that we know is a process called lawfare.

Today, the Two Mikes spoke with Sheriff Richard Mack, who was a constitutional sheriff in Graham
County in southwestern Arizona. He also is the founder and the president of an association named the
Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA, https://cspoa.org) which is holding its
annual conference in Orlando, Florida on 7 September 2024. The CSPOA’s membership includes about a
thousand of the republic’s constitutional sheriffs – one-third of the country’s total number -- many of
their subordinates, and it is open for membership to all American citizens interested in its non-violent
effort to restore constitutional government to all of the United States, with a special emphasis on fully
restoring the Bill of Rights. Sheriff Mack noted that the constitutional sheriffs swear an oath of
allegiance to the U.S. Constitution and so can act in protection of life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness – the latter refers to the accumulation of personal property – and, for example, can block gun
seizures, protect churches and businesses from mandated closings, as in the case of Covid, and prevent
the outrageous denials of liberty we have seen against Amish farmers in Pennsylvania and other farmers
around the country. In essence, Sheriff Mack said, the maintenance of the peoples’ liberty is the
constitutional sheriffs’ sole responsibility. It also should be noted that Sheriff Mack managed to achieve
the almost impossible when he launched a personal law suit that made its way to the Supreme Court –
and he won! In the case of Mack-Vs-United States (1995), Mack challenged the legality of “The Brady
Handgun Violence Prevention Act (Brady Bill) required ‘local chief law enforcement officers. (CLEOs) to
perform background-checks on prospective handgun purchasers, until such time as the Attorney
General establishes a federal system for this purpose.”(1)
--the Supreme Court constructed its opinion on the old principle that state legislatures are not
subject to federal direction. The Court explained that while Congress may require the federal
government to regulate commerce directly, in this case by performing background-checks on
applicants for handgun ownership, the Necessary and Proper Clause does not empower it to
compel state CLEOs to fulfill its federal tasks for it - even temporarily. (2)
Sheriff Mack’s argument not only won the case, but, in its decision, the Supreme Court also stuck a blow
in favor of state’s rights by reasserting the constitutional fact that state legislatures are not vassals of
the federal government. Indeed, the Founders intended the states to be a check and balance against the
steady expansion of federal power. That undesirable and Constitution-wrecking expansion is now a fact
and it appears that constitutional law enforcement officers may well be our last, best chance to prevent
the federal government from solidifying itself as a vast concentration of dictatorial power.
The text of the majority decision – written by Justice Antonin Scalia -- in Mack-vs-United States (1995) is
available in a pamphlet at https://www.cspoa.com, as well as elsewhere on the internet.

Today, The Two Mikes again welcomed back Gordon Oliver, who is with the non-profit
organization Cambridge Credit Management, which was founded in 1996.
Mr. Oliver said that much of the economy is still in a bad way, and the indications are that the republic’s economy may well get worse. He noted, to for example, that homeowners with adjustable mortgages have seen their interest rates rise from 4.4-percent to 7.5-percent.
Americans with school-loan debts to pay are also facing a situation where they will have to face the future alone as Biden is focused on getting help government employees working in all governmental levels – states, municipalities, cities, and the civil service. The largest percentage of the individuals in those categories are, not surprisingly, reliable Democratic voters.
Mr. Oliver added that the future economic outlook is unpredictable, as is obvious in the fact food prices continue to increase even as the administration says inflation is moderating. The first step for consumers, Mr. Oliver said, is to get a handle on your monthly expenses by making a list of the expenses that you must pay every month, mortgage, rent, or other contractual debts, groceries, utilities, child- care, gasoline, insurance payments, etc. and see how much you are committed to monthly and see if one or more category can be reduced.
This is an important and sometimes complicated process but Mr. Oliver’s organization offers free – yes, free -- assistance for people who are ready to prepare a budget that will help them get through what appears to be the tough economic road that lies ahead.

Today, The Two Mikes had the pleasure of meeting and listening to Kevin D. Freeman, a veteran specialist in global investing and the author of the new book Pirate Money: Discovering the Founders Plan Hidden Plan for Economic Justice and Defeating the Great Reset.
Mr. Freeman explained that America’s Founders were “hard money” men, insisting the new nation’s currency be based on gold and silver, but preferably gold. He said that the word dollar was nothing new in the Founders era, it came from Spain’s milled dollars, they were often referred to as “pieces of eight”. The Founders had no use for paper money because it was hard to control but easy to print, and often provided a light to the fuse that started inflation.
Hard money, throughout history, has been a medium that – unlike paper money – preserves its own worth. Nothing proves the dangers of paper money, then the fact that the U.S. dollar, which was worth 100 cents in the early 1970s, is now worth only 12 cents of that 1970 dollar. The Biden Administration and some of the richest men and companies on earth now applaud the printing of vast amounts of paper money to bankrupt the United States and allow them to bring in the so-called “Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)”, which, Mr. Freeman noted, is meant to end the citizenry’s privacy and to enable the New World Order to control every facet of their lives. The CBDC will take away the free market, end every individual’s right to privacy, and force each person to make purchases only when their masters agree with it.
We have an early example of what would happen under CBDC in Biden’s mandate that all Americans will eventually be forced to drive electric cars. Many people have bought these cars at outrages prices – even with federal subsidies for their makers – only to find that the cannot afford repairs, that some of the cars explode unexpectedly, and that companies like Hertz, having bought 20,000 electric vehicles, – are now trying to sell off their electronic vehicles at reduced prices because few people want to rent them. The CBDC also will help to bring in such anti-democratic anathemas as reparations and other forms of social engineering.
Not surprising, given the foregoing, Mr. Freeman’s book has met with an avalanche of bi-partisan admiring reviews from Dr. Ben Carson, Dr. Naomi Wolfe, former Senator Jim De Mint, Charlie Kirk, and many others. For the Two Mikes, Mr. Freeman and his work and engaging presentations hold out a lantern that outlines the economic disasters that are at hand, and that must be defeated to ensure of nation that secures life, liberty, individual responsibility, and religious freedom for all Americans. Mr. Freeman’s book, Pirate Money, can be found on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/Pirate-Money-Discovering-Founders-Defeating/dp/1958945048/ref=sr_1_1?crid=14RSIGCXW6PTL&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Bhp6UQIcj8L0Zfc61hT2V_8gYnMdA_KJ1RZde2n3lO6097mnsWq2PLAJx2lXtOg45pcYL4V9pGnOaJIau8ipJtRosX7QPxD9ViN_O_b6ndSfshDx07lgfWPyUFVKof7g0vivRWGP22MaySiP5NI5JH-dvdyIdz6gDt7xlfEQqhIdkGdqBxHzOz7z11G8Lh4xLPhH5pPG-kyZfItCDhBttzEANGhHjKEraC070xFXIT8.SabHTuETKqUbvtF82vpejEYz-AxQHkCob2RwGoLfSyM&dib_tag=se&keywords=pirate+money&qid=1719006714&s=books&sprefix=pirate+money%2Cstripbooks%2C67&sr=1-1

Today, The Two Mikes welcomed Dr. Anne Bradley to our podcast to speak about a man named Hugh Whelchel, who has passed away. Dr. Bradley worked with Mr. Whelchel at the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics in Northern Virginia. Dr. Bradley remembers Mr. Whelchel as a friend who had the unique ability to teach the theology of life, work and family; indeed, he was a man who could "bring theology to life for Christians." He spoke clearly and with a passion, Dr. Bradley explained, and "it made people want to take the time to speak more with him." Mr. Whelchel was never in a rush, and spent time answering questions as long as people had questions to ask. He told his audiences to always recall that God created each person not only in His image and likeness, but also created each person "to be something that only you can be." Mr. Whelchel, Dr. Bradley said, can truly be described as a "magnanimous" human being, who had a deep knowledge of scripture, genuine humbleness, and great skill at getting diverse groups of people to sit around the table and work through problems, ideas, and aspirations. Mr. Whelchel is sorely missed by those who knew him and heard him speak, but some of his writings still remain available at the Institute's website, https://www.tifwe.org.

Today, The Two Mikes again spoke with Joe Lombardi, the owner of Ironhawk Financial Company.
Mr. Lombardi gave us the good news that he is going to begin broadcasting a weekly podcast called "Money Talk with Ironhawk'' on Tuesdays, and will soon after begin he will be broadcasting a weekly webinar on financial matters. Both programs will be on Apple and all of its outlets.
Mr. Lombardi said that Americans are finally realizing that the goal of the Biden Administration is to turn the American dream into the American nightmare.
Indeed, he argued that it is likely that Biden and his circle will create a huge economic crash between Trump's election and his inauguration. In regard to the non-stop printing of U.S. currency, Mr. Lombardi said that the only worth in that currency is based on the labor of Americans and the tax payments thereon they are required to pay.
In essence Americans have been enslaved via an agreement by both parties to fund their wars, waste, and corruption on the back of the working person. This is made easier for the political parties by the fact that only 6 or 7 companies -- with Black Rock in the lead -- hold the bulk of the world's wealth.
Black Rock, for example, is now inflating the home market by buying up single-family homes, in cooperation with the WEF's plan to "have people have nothing and own nothing." The same culprits are manipulating individual retirement accounts in a manner that, when it comes time for an individual to draw from his retirement account he or she will receive far less than they expected. These companies and both political parties, Mr. Lombardi concluded, have neither "conscience or remorse."
Mr. Lombardi's website is https://wwww.ironhawkfinancial.com.
His email is [email protected].
Currently he is offering a book he has written about the U.S. economy, its future, and what it means for citizens, and is offering a free copy to our listeners if they email him and request the book.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Melissa Witte (@villagecrazylady) who studies and writes about campaign financing in the United States.
Ms. Witte said that Political Action Committees (PACs) are an amazingly effective means of building personal fortunes. How so? Well, when a politician starts a PAC he tends to raise more money than he needs and, under the legislation which legalized PACs, the politician keeps the money that was raised but not spent.
As an example, Ms. Witte said that in his 2022 re-election campaign North Carolina Senator Tim Scott raised $52 million for his campaign and spent $38 million of that total. His Democratic rival raised $200 million and spent %150 million in the campaign. Under the pertinent legislation, neither Senator Scott nor his rival need have any qualms about keeping their excess campaign funds.
Ms. Witte argued that at least 80-percent of the Congress and Senate are building fortunes via this excess campaign funding. Ms. Witte explained much more about what was found in her studies and it is riveting to listen to her speak. We hope she will come back and speak to us after the 2024 national election.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with conservative podcaster Vincent James.
Mr. James spoke with some emphasis about Israel, and its interference in U.S. domestic affairs either via their intelligence services or via its surrogate organizations in the United States – especially the odious ADL, AIPAC, and the Southern Poverty Law Center – as well as the thorough-going corruption of various U.S. institutions, especially both Houses of the U.S. Congress.
Israel’s U.S. controlled assets in the U.S. Congress and law-makers at the state level to deny government contracts to any citizen or company who urges divesting in the Israeli economy. At least 37 states now have such Israel-First laws.
Mr. James also spoke about the ongoing population replacement campaign being conducted by the Biden Administration, the Democratic Party, the media and by both houses of Congress. From a global view, Mr. James pointed out that the now ongoing clash of civilizations is not recognized by enough Americans.
Flooding America with foreigners who will never assimilate – Europe is in the same fix, also arranged by their rulers – is the fuel with which these civilization clashes will increase in ferocity and lethality.
For people interested in knowing how our current nightmare came about, Mr. James suggests reading two books by the late historian/political scientist Samuel Huntington: (a) The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order (1993) and (b) Who Are We? The Challenges to America's National Identity (2004). Both books are available at Amazon in inexpensive paperback editions. Mr. James is well worth a listen, particularly by those concerned about America’s ability to survive. His mention of Professor Huntington’s work is particularly helpful, as both books provide a sound estimate of where the republic and the Western world stands today. Indeed, Dr. Mike recalls discussing Clash of Civilizations when he was a federal bureaucrat, raising the point that the book was key to figuring out where the world has headed. Many of his colleagues agreed on the high-importance of the book, but the upper managerial levels wanted no part of Huntington’s astoundingly accurate preview of what would happen to the West if its governments continued to ignore reality’s steady downward trend.
Then called “political correctness”, this reaction yielded a failure to grab Huntington’s helping hand and hang on tight. --Mr. James podcast is published on Odysee and is available on many other sites.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Ms. Tricia Jackson who is running for the position of State Auditor in West Virginia.
Ms. Jackson graduated with a Bachelor's degree from Liberty University in business administration with a concentration in Project Management. She also holds two HR certifications as a Professional in Human Resources.
In her career, Ms. Jackson has been a mother, small business owner and, since 2020, has served as County Commissioner in Jefferson County, the county in which she was born. Like the other candidates for state office in West Virginia, Ms. Jackson has been crisscrossing the state by car to meet and speak to as many people as possible before the primary election on 14 May 2022.
There is, for The Two Mikes, something refreshing about not seeing candidates flying around in private jets and being more interested in speaking with the media and big donors rather than with the voters.
And Ms. Jackson has a good story to tell as she describes one of the state's problems; namely, that money that is appropriated in the state budget does not always get spent on the project or program for which it was intended.
If elected as state auditor, Ms. Jackson said that she intends to have her department provide steady and in-depth tracking over spending in all of West Virginia’s counties and municipalities in the state to make certain that tax dollars are spent in the manner in which they were intended to be spent.
As auditor, Ms. Jackson has an Inspector General in her department, and she said she will ensure that the IG and his team will be busy in rectifying any misspending that is identified.
