In this episode I am joined by Wendi Strauch Mahoney.  We are discussing what is really going on with election integrity.  What led to the “potential” election fraud in 2020 and what can be done to prevent it in the future.  Wendi who writes for UncoverDC has researched and followed this topic extensively for the last couple of years. Some links to articles related to our discussion.A summary list of articles: https://uncoverdc.wpengine.com/2022/05/10/complete-coverage-of-true-the-vote-and-election-integrity/The influence of Zuckerbucks: https://www.uncoverdc.com/2022/04/12/ctcl-announces-80-million-program-to-run-elections/https://www.uncoverdc.com/2022/07/14/moncla-and-rossi-dive-into-fulton-county-recount-shenanigans/https://www.uncoverdc.com/2022/08/22/lindells-election-summit-citizens-report-on-the-state-of-the-states/https://www.uncoverdc.com/2022/09/27/jovan-hutton-pulitzer-election-day-ballots-may-have-been-inserted-in-maricopa-county/Influence of mail in ballotshttps://skeshel.substack.com/p/washington-oregon-colorado-and-utah

In this episode we are talking with Ron Davison about the facts related to CO2. I ran across Ron's work a few months ago and thought he was really good at presenting the facts on this highly technical issue in a fairly easy to understand manner. He's written a downloadable book on the subject and publishes regular position papers at his website https://www.climatechangeandmusic.com.Ron is a chemical engineer and has a background in energy and CO2 having actually built a CO2 sequestration plant.Graphics that support this podcast can be found at:https://daveswinford.substack.com/p/discussion-of-co2-with-ron-davison

In this episode we discuss the problem of storing energy and specifically renewable energy that is produced by wind turbines and solar arrays. Our guest for this episode is Francis Menton. Francis blogs at the ManhattanContrarian.com and writes about climate, energy and a little on politics. On his blog he takes a critical look at the storage techniques, costs and issues associated with renewable energy storage. He poses an interesting challenge of creating a demonstration program where some community, some area relies solely on renewable energy and available storage. You can read his latest article the demonstration program issue here: https://www.manhattancontrarian.com/blog/2022-10-2-without-a-demonstration-project-or-feasibility-study

In this episode we are going to give you an alternate perspective on the temperature increases supposedly caused by climate change.  The media and the climate crusaders would have you believe that it is causing irreparable harm to our world, that we are driving up temperatures beyond livable levels and dooming the future of younger generations. Is it really happening? Is any of that true? Is it really that bad? Graphics are available on my Substackhttps://daveswinford.substack.com/p/temperature-and-climate-change

In this episode of the Facts Are What Matter we are going to analyze and discuss the practicality, as far as energy, of moving from gasoline powered automobiles to all electric passenger cars and light trucks. We will calculate how much additional electricity is needed for 100% electric cars and light trucks. Then we will compute how much new generation we would need and if it could be met with current resources. How many nuclear reactors or solar arrays will be needed. How much real estate will that take. Finally we will answer if it can it be done by the 2050 goal or is it a "Bright Green Impossibility".Links and graphics for this episode can be found at https://daveswinford.substack.com

I was fortunate to be joined on this episode by Dr. David Rasnick. Dr. Rasnick is one of those HIV/AIDS dissenting voices mentioned in the Real Anthony Fauci book. You will be hearing a discussion between myself and Dr. Rasnick about the book, the AIDS/HIV dogma, and its parallels to the current Covid situation.If you really want to know all the details and particulars of the AIDS/HIV hypothesis you are going to have to read the book or at least review some of the online materials.I'll put some more info on my SubStack where you can download this intro, get more information from the linked pages and if you subscribe to my Substack channel it's a great way to get notified of new content and to post comments, rebuttals, or just yell and scream at everyone. 

In this episode we discuss the efficacy of the COVID-19 Vaccines. Do they work now, have they ever worked, are people being damaged and dying? We discuss some of the recent studies and data. We also describe how the vaccine testing program was executed. The concept of relative risk reduction vs absolute risk reduction is presented. You will hear a lot of things you may not be hearing from the media and you will understand who is potentially motivated by the profits (follow the money).In the end you will have a lot of information from which to make your own determination on whether the vaccines are safe and worthwhile taking.

In this episode we discuss the effectiveness of masks in reducing the spread of COVID-19 and will present 3 arguments: 1) Size of a virus versus the gaps in and around masks of any kind; 2) When looking at the Covid case counts from any state vs mask mandate dates, they show no discernible difference; 3) Scientific studies done both before and after COVID showed that simple masks are ineffective against a virus.Sites referenced in this episode:https://rationalground.com/why-dont-face-masks-work/https://swprs.org/face-masks-evidence/https://townhall.com/tipsheet/spencerbrown/2021/05/26/new-study-refutes-fauci-efficacy-of-mask-mandates-n2589990Video from Dr Theodore Noel...YouTube has removed it (of course) but if you search around you can find images and maybe the video. As of today it is visible from the SWPRS.org site that was referenced.Note: just as this article was being produced the FOIA information from Buzzfeed with the Dr Fauci emails just came out...boom !!!
