A tabletop exercise with 26 countries and a hantavirus outbreak: Coincidence or PSYOP? Peter Breggin MD & Ginger Breggin Mon May 11 The Breggin Hour Health, Political, Transportation https://mega.nz/file/0hI0zJAC#bg9CYz81VQXIHfuzjCKVtWsJtxeY2AWPhuBjD0QUfEc   The news hit my inbox, and I had that “here we go again” sinking feeling. Before Covid hit in 2020, there were a number of “simulation exercises” –often called tabletop exercises—supposedly to prepare countries and health agencies in the event of a large disease outbreak. Senior author Peter R. Breggin, MD, and I had tracked down and identified a number of what we called Pandemic Predictions and Planning Events” that we researched and exposed in our book COVID-19 and the Global Predators: We are the Prey. Now it looked like the same deadly program was about to repeat. Jon Fleetwood, Substack author and independent investigative journalist, announced this week: “WHO Runs Pandemic Simulation ‘Exercise Polaris II.” He declared, “26 countries, 600 emergency experts, and more than 25 global health agencies and response networks participate in WHO's expanding multinational outbreak simulation.” Almost as though planned, reports of a deadly disease outbreak on board the cruise ship, Hondius, began circulating. Confirmation came days later that the disease strain was indeed the Andes virus strain of the Hantavirus (which has evidence of human-to-human spread). Meanwhile, several dozen people have left the ship and are now being tracked so contact tracing can occur. Despite the fear factor being ramped up in the media, WHO epidemiologist Maria Van Kerkhove stated Wednesday that the Hantavirus outbreak is not the next COVID pandemic. I believe this provides deniability cover for WHO, while contributing to the public confusion about the threat of Hantavirus, which will drive public opinion toward accepting global oversight (read “control”) of health matters. Our show this week featured Dr. Peter Breggin and Ginger Breggin interviewing journalist Alex Newman about the World Health Organization's pandemic simulations and globalist threats to national sovereignty. We discussed findings from a December 2, 2024, House committee report on COVID-19 origins and nursing home policies, while Newman explained how various totalitarian forces cooperate through international organizations to expand power using pandemic preparedness as justification. The conversation emphasized the importance of recognizing these threats as intentional rather than accidental and concluded with a discussion of Newman's upcoming book and the role of faith in preserving liberty. When Peter Breggin and I researched our book, we discovered events like these were harbingers of the COVID operation, which was  launched in early 2020 and led to the first-ever nearly universal lockdown of nations, resulting in demolished economies, demoralized, gaslit citizens, and ultimately millions of deaths and disabling adverse effects around the world from the so-called mRNA “Covid vaccines.” We recognized the attack on individual freedoms and liberty in the first couple of months of 2020 and went to work to uncover the real story. COVID-19 and the Global Predators: We are the Prey Peter and I researched, wrote, and published the first comprehensive book on the COVID era, documenting evidence for the laboratory release of COVID, identifying Dr. Fauci's early lies to the U.S. Senate, and his extensive collaborations with other globalists and billionaires. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., now Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), stated that when our book COVID-19 and the Global Predators came out, “No other book so comprehensively covers the details of COVID-19 criminal conduct as well as its origins in a network of global predators seeking wealth and power at the expense of human freedom and prosperity, under the cover of false public health policies.” In our Covid book, we reviewed and debunked the totalitarian rules and regulations enforced all over the world in the name of public health, including the mass murder in New York State when Governor Cuomo sent sick patients into uninfected nursing homes, resulting in mass disease spread. Asking the obvious next question—who is behind this disaster? — We found and exposed Bill Gates and his master plan that implemented Operation Warp Speed in 2015-2017. Gates, along with a rogue's gallery of other predatory globalists, was identified and exposed in part three of our book. Drawing on his extensive experience as a medical-legal expert in over 100 trials in the US and Canada, Dr. Breggin assembled a chapter titled “Bill of Particulars against Dr. Anthony Fauci.” As the possibility of Fauci's formal accusation grows closer, we hope that Federal investigators will be made aware of Dr. Breggin's suggested outline and summary of possible charges against the evil perpetrator. We completed the COVID-19 and the Global Predators book by mapping out how we, citizens, can recover our liberty. Documentation included in this book includes an extensive Chronology as well as over 1100 endnotes and an extensive index. So, is it over yet? There is always that sweet, soft, naive streak in me (Ginger) that expects that once the exposure of the evil and the crime is complete, it will be fixed. Justice will be served. The mRNA “vaccines” will be abolished, victims will be cared for, and such a dreadful time will not happen again. But then the years fly by, and I set aside the soft part of me, take a deep breath, and get ready for the next onslaught. We are seeing signs now that the next pandemic operation is being considered. The psychological manipulations continue, and pressure will be put on the public to demand a global health authority, because a global health authority equals global control. We have seen this program already with COVID—Dr. Breggin and I mapped out the plan in our COVID-19 and the Global Predators book. We all need to refresh our memories about what happened—how world control was seized—and work to prevent any future recurrence. Our guest, Alex Newman, CEO of Liberty Sentinel Media, is an award-winning international journalist, educator, author, speaker, investor, nationally syndicated radio host, and consultant who “seeks to glorify God in everything he does.” The list of international and national magazines and newspapers to which he has contributed articles reads like a who's who of news.

Former Governor Andrew Cuomo defends his record of pragmatic governance while critiquing the current trajectory of the Democratic Party. He distinguishes his own brand of aggressive, results-oriented leadership—which focused on major infrastructure and social legislation—from the symbolic pandering he associates with the modern far-left. Cuomo argues that many current politicians are abandoning traditional principles and functionality out of a fearful desire to avoid losing primary challenges to socialist insurgents.

Former governors Andrew Cuomo and David Paterson criticize the "tax the rich" narrative and the implementation of the pied-à-terre tax, arguing these measures are mere political symbolism that drive away wealthy residents and essential tax revenue. A significant portion of the dialogue addresses a perceived rise in anti-Semitism and a lack of moral leadership, specifically accusing local officials of fueling tensions rather than fostering unity. Finally, the discussion laments the erosion of executive authority, contrasting the current late budget and legislative chaos with a historical model of a strong governor who can command the state with decisive action.

This week, the boys get all Tom & Huck and head to the Mississippi River to discuss Jeff Nichols' “Mud”. The random year generator spun 2013, and we decided to follow up our recent “Take Shelter” episode to see how Nichols handled the McConaissance. What we didn't expect was finding some of the best youth performances ever by Tye Sheridan and Jacob Lofland in a Stand-By-Me-Meets-Huckleberry-Finn narrative. We were a little split on our overall takeaways, but boy did we appreciate the journey.  linktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page!  Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

This week, the boys teleport back to 1986, when Jeff Goldblum was awkward yet ripped and writing was weird, especially for women. Only our second David Cronenberg after “Crimes of the Future”, we dive into “The Fly”: the tropey writing, the B-movie plot outline done at an A-list scale with top-notch hair and makeup, and why we all walked away with different ratings for the movie.

Five attorneys representing Democrat fundraising apparatus Act Blue plead the fifth and refuse to answer questions from Congress about illegal foreign donations to thousands of democrat candidates. The Supreme Court refuses to hear the nursing home Covid death case against Andrew Cuomo. And the DOJ announces former US Attorney and Trump pitbull Joe diGenova as his lead Russian Collusion investigator. Why that is bad news for John Brennan. 250 journalists plan to gum up and protest the White House Correspondents dinner.  

This week on Excelsior Journeys: The Road to Creativity, host & producer George Sirois sits down with documentary filmmaker Sara Alessandrini.

John Tamny, editor of RealClearMarkets, argues that the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic represented a tragic lapse of reason where politicians panicked and replaced the collective wisdom of the marketplace with centralized planning. Tamny identifies March 20, 2020 — the day Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered a mandated "shelter in place" for New York — as a pivotal moment signaling a severe government-mandated contraction of the economy. He contends that the economy is not a "valve" that can be simply shut and reopened, as the sudden cessation of business activity forced investors to rethink the future value of all enterprises.

Andrew Cuomo and nuclear expert Andrea Stricker examine whether a reliable peace deal can be brokered to prevent Iran from developing atomic weapons. Stricker argues that for a treaty to be credible, it must involve the complete dismantling of enrichment facilities and rigorous international inspections similar to historic precedents in South Africa and Libya. The conversation highlights a tension between the crippling economic pressure currently facing the Iranian regime and deep-seated skepticism regarding their willingness to cooperate honestly.

Andrew Cuomo explores the limitations of military power in resolving the nuclear standoff with Iran, emphasizing that negotiated diplomacy remains the only viable path to a lasting solution. Expert Joe Cirincione argues that conventional strikes cannot fully eliminate a nuclear program hidden in deep fortifications, nor can they neutralize Iran's asymmetric warfare capabilities, such as the use of inexpensive drones and missiles to block the Strait of Hormuz. The discussion highlights a significant shift in the nature of modern combat where high-tech militaries struggle against low-cost, decentralized technology that can strangle the global economy by disrupting oil supplies.

This week, the boys head to the St. James Theater on Broadway to discuss “Birdman (Or the Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)”.

This week, the boys head to Sicily to try and save cinema with 1989's “Cinema Paradiso”! This highly regarded film expresses the nostalgia of growing up in post-WWII Italy where a single movie theater was the only source of entertainment for a town. It ends with it getting torn to the ground, which is reason enough for us to grab some drinks and talk positively about the film, whether or not it's too nostalgic and sentimental, and how it reflects our feelings of today's cinema culture. linktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page!  Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

Danya Perry, a former federal prosecutor and now defense attorney, built her reputation handling high-profile cases and often siding with survivors in abuse scandals, including speaking out against powerful men like Andrew Cuomo and Eric Schneiderman. She now represents billionaire Leon Black, and has explained her decision as rooted in what she believes is a misuse of the legal system by accusers. Perry argues that some of the claims against Black are inconsistent with recordings, texts, and other evidence she's reviewed, framing her role as pushing back against allegations she sees as fabricated and harmful to the credibility of genuine survivor cases.Leon Black, meanwhile, faces multiple civil lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct, rape, and abuse, including cases brought by Guzel Ganieva, Cheri Pierson, and others. He has denied all wrongdoing, characterizing the allegations as false and defamatory, and has pursued aggressive counter-litigation. His legal team, including Perry, has fought attempts to disqualify them from his cases, arguing that their defense is legitimate and grounded in evidence that contradicts the accusations. Perry has been central to that defense, reinforcing Black's strategy of denying misconduct while casting doubt on his accusers' credibility.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.businessinsider.com/danya-perry-attorney-profile-leon-black-cuomo-cohen-schneiderman-2022-5Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This week, the boys drink and keep it positive as they head back to 1959 to discuss Otto Preminger's “Anatomy of a Murder”.

“. . . There's this sense that [Left-leaning candidates] have to essentially be apologizing for their policy prescriptions and their stances. Mamdani has not done that . . . For the most part, he very much embraces who he is and what his policy prescriptions are.” - Felipe De La Hoz This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description [original air date Oct 31, 2025]:  Wherever you are in the country, you've probably heard the name “Zohran Mamdani”. New York City's mayoral race is a national story, and it's hard to overstate the significance of the leading candidate in this moment. If elected, Mamdani would become the first Muslim-American and only the second Democratic Socialist Mayor of the largest city in the U.S. His victory, on a promise to make New York affordable for working people, would have implications for politics everywhere. The race is already garnering both excitement and anxiety. President Trump is threatening to withhold federal funding for New York City if Mamdani wins. From Chicago to Dearborn, Michigan, journalists are watching. In this installment of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, Laura Flanders speaks with Felipe De La Hoz, investigative immigration and policy reporter whose work has been featured in The Intercept, The Washington Post, New York Mag and The Nation; Osama Siblani, publisher and founder of The Arab American News, the largest Arab American newspaper in the U.S., and Asha Ransby-Sporn, organizer and writer for In These Times and co-founder of Black Youth Project 100, where she led the group's national organizing program. Join us as we explore what a Mamdani victory would signal for the nation.

A black box has been recovered from the deadly runway crash at LaGuardia Airport aboard an Air Canada flight that crashed, and the black box is being driven to Washington, D.C. Talks between Iran and the United States are being conducted through a third-party intermediary in the Middle East, relaying communications between both sides. ICE agents have been deployed at airports across the country, providing significant support - particularly with gate security alongside TSA. Democrats have been vocal in their opposition to the agents' presence at airports, a reaction that many feel is making them look out of touch. Mark interviews Fox News contributor Liz Peek. Republicans, along with Democrats, are refusing to fund DHS, resulting in unusually long lines at airports nationwide. Could privately run TSA operations be the solution? The conversation also turns to the New York mayoral race - had Andrew Cuomo dropped out earlier, the outcome could have looked very different, as his presence is seen as a key factor in certain candidates' losses. President Trump continues to face criticism over a Truth Social post in which he expressed satisfaction over the passing of Robert Mueller. Mark also shifts the talk to windmills and their limited impact on the environment. OnlyFans owner Leonid Radvinsky has passed away following a battle with cancer. Bill Cosby has lost a sex assault lawsuit and is now facing a $59 million judgment. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O'Reilly. What was the imminent threat posed by Iran to the United States? Bill breaks it down and also discusses a revealing interview he conducted with Lindsey Graham that shed light on the reasoning behind discussions of a potential military strike. The two also touch on a growing trend in how hosts are designing and displaying their on-air sets, and reflect on the rising popularity of longer-form podcast interviews.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description [Original air date Oct 31, 2025]: Wherever you are in the county, you've probably heard the name “Zohran Mamdani”. New York City's mayoral race is a national story, and it's hard to overstate the significance of the leading candidate in this moment. If elected, Mamdani would become the first Muslim-American and only the second Democratic Socialist Mayor of the largest city in the U.S. His victory, on a promise to make New York affordable for working people, would have implications for politics everywhere. The race is already garnering both excitement and anxiety. President Trump is threatening to withhold federal funding for New York City if Mamdani wins. From Chicago to Dearborn, Michigan, journalists are watching. In this installment of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, Laura Flanders speaks with Felipe De La Hoz, investigative immigration and policy reporter whose work has been featured in The Intercept, The Washington Post, New York Mag and The Nation; Osama Siblani, publisher and founder of The Arab American News, the largest Arab American newspaper in the U.S., and Asha Ransby-Sporn, organizer and writer for In These Times and co-founder of Black Youth Project 100, where she led the group's national organizing program. Join us as we explore what a Mamdani victory would signal for the nation. “More so than I am concerned with Black people being pulled to the Right or being pulled in by Trump . . . I think what we see are people who are disengaged and feel like our political system isn't going to deliver for them at all. Who feel let down by the establishment Democratic party that has sold all of us out for decades, and Black people have borne an enormous amount of the brunt of that impact.” - Asha Ransby-Sporn Guests: • Felipe De La Hoz: Immigration & Policy Reporter, Epicenter NYC • Asha Ransby-Sporn: Writer & Political Strategist; Columnist, In These Times • Osama Siblani: Publisher, The Arab American News Full Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

Military officer and former Speaker of the Parliament of Iran, Ali Larijani, was killed in the war against Iran yesterday. Former Director of the United States National Counterterrorism Center Joe Kent has resigned from his position in response to President Trump's actions against Iran, where he is allegedly upset that Israel has emerged as the primary beneficiary of the conflict. Meanwhile, reporters covering the Nancy Guthrie case have begun leaving Arizona, where she resided, and a petition has been launched to remove the sheriff who handled her case. Mark interviews Fox News contributor Liz Peek. Liz makes the case for why the Fed should seriously consider lowering interest rates, noting that current inflation numbers may not support maintaining the current rates. She also points out that very few voices on the right are pushing back on the SAVE Act, and argues that the best political strategy for Republicans is to advance legislation that roughly 80 percent of the country already supports, putting Democrats on the defensive. The SAVE Act has become a major flashpoint, driving Democrats to fury over its requirement that voters present certain forms of ID. In the New York City mayoral race, had Andrew Cuomo not entered the contest, Eric Adams would likely have secured the Democratic primary, but Zohran Mamdani ultimately claimed that spot instead. New York City is also moving forward with installing additional speed cameras, following the model of San Francisco, which has generated approximately $17 million annually from its own camera program. Mark interviews author Ann Coulter. A lineup change is underway at MSNBC. Some Democrats are framing the SAVE Act as voter suppression, particularly targeting immigrants, with certain members of the party suggesting that some racial groups lack access to proper identification. Ann and Mark also turn to what the airlines should do amid the ongoing DHS situation and the continued dysfunction in Congress.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, the boys headed to 1970 to the new decade of the new wave of American independent cinema! Bob Rafelson's “Five Easy Pieces” established the behavior-driven, theme-over-plot indie movies that paved the way for the best era for indies. Jack Nicholson is a badass (asshole) prodigy-turned-roustabout looking to find himself in people he's willing to screw over in Bob Rafelson's seminal movie. After John fires off some mini-reviews and news, we set up the film year of 1970 before we drink beers and try to keep our conversation positive! linktr.ee/theloveofcinema - Check out our YouTube page!  Our phone number is 646-484-9298.

Some prominent right-wing conservatives, including Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, have publicly disagreed with President Trump's attack on Iran. This division has sparked criticism from both sides, with left-wing media questioning whether there was ever a concrete plan to target Iran, causing further skepticism about the administration's strategy. Meanwhile, the Clintons testified last week about Jeffrey Epstein - a session widely accused of dishonesty. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews Newsmax and WOR host Rob Astorino. Mark and Rob talk about former Governor Cuomo's new radio show in New York City, both sharing their opinions. Rob also reports from Texas, offering updates on the primaries. Additionally, they discuss why Republicans are supporting Democratic Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett, believing they have a strong chance to defeat her in the coming months.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark discusses McDonald's latest burger release and speculates on its potential impact. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O'Reilly. Bill provides behind-the-scenes insights into Trump's reasoning in attacking Iran. O'Reilly suggests the President wants to be seen as a peacemaker rather than someone who favors violent conflict. Mark and Bill also consider who might MC for the upcoming White House Correspondents' Dinner. Bill gives his take on the future of CNN after its acquisition by Paramount.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
