Seems like the human race never learns. We just got through one massive, global pandemic that killed many millions of people. Now, fears surrounding Bird Flu are making headlines like: Experts Warn of Bird Flu Pandemic As Signals of Mutation Mount. That from ScienceAlert. SciTechDaily's headline reads: Alarming Mutation in H5N1 Virus Raises Pandemic Red Flags. The article goes on to say: "A recent study published in Science and funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has found that a single alteration in a protein on the surface of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus—currently present in U.S. dairy cows—could significantly increase its potential for human-to-human transmission." And, now, the USDA is going be testing cow's milk! NBC News reports: "The mandate targeting bulk milk transporters and dairy processors is meant to help identify herds that have caught the virus, which has spread among livestock." So, what happens when they find Bird Flu? They've already killed millions of exposed chickens by baking them to death in a cruel mass-killing process called Ventilation Shutdown!  Are they going to bake the cows to death too? Would it be too crazy to suggest that humans should just stop torturing and killing 92 BILLION ANIMALS for food every year in dangerously cramped industrial factory farming systems? Here to discuss is Free From Harm's Robert Grillo and Amber Canavan, PETA's Vegan Campaigns Project Manager with UnchainedTV host Jane Velez-Mitchell.

Animal Rising has made global headlines with its risk-taking actions including: sending hundreds of protesters to disrupt England's most famous horse race, rescuing lambs from the estate of the King of England and occupying massive dairy factories. Their mission is to reinvent humanity's broken relationship with animals by getting people to understand that it is morally wrong to use, abuse and kill animals for food, fashion, entertainment or experimentation. Often wearing matching pink sweatshirts, Animal Rising members risk arrest and even their lives to confront, in a nonviolent way, people who are participating in animal exploitation. In this interview, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell talks to Animal Rising Co-Director Ben Newman and Animal Rising associate Rose Patterson.

In this extraordinary show, you will meet Delilah, a cat who survived hellish, taxpayer funded experiments at a USDA lab before being rescued by Anthony Bellotti, the President & Founder of White Coat Waste, whom you'll also meet. Millions of other animals are not so lucky. Right now, about 14,000 cats and kittens are trapped in laboratories. The domestic shorthair is one of America's most popular pets. But federal government agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), the Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA), and the Dept. of Defense (DOD) have spent millions to buy, breed, and abuse felines in wasteful laboratory torture—and YOU, the taxpayers, pay the bill whether you approve of this government sanctioned sadism or not.   But there's hope. White Coat Waste is a bipartisan campaign to expose and close the U.S. government's cat and animal experimentation business. WCW proclaims that, over the last 5 years, it has shut down all confirmed labs causing pain and distress to cats inside the federal government and won the first-ever federal policies to retire and release survivors as pets. Now WCW is leading the fight to end taxpayer-funded cat and kitten experimentation across the United States. WCW Founder and President Anthony Bellotti (along with Delilah) joins UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell to reveal what YOU can do to stop these wasteful experiments.

Whale Wars Star and founder of Sea Shepherd, Captain Paul Watson, has been imprisoned since July in Greenland! The anti-whaling hero has applied for political asylum in France as he fights off attempts by Japan to get him extradited to that nation where he could end up behind bars for 15 years. Activists around the world are demanding that Watson be released immediately with protests from Los Angeles to France outside Danish government offices. Watson was first arrested back in July when his ship docked in Greenland, which is park of the kingdom of Denmark. Danish authorities are still deciding whether to extradite him. Japan is one of the few nations that still engages in whaling. Environmentalists and animal lovers across the globe are outraged that any government would side with whalers at a time when our seas and the animals in them are in crisis. UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell speaks with Omar Todd, Global CEO of the Paul Watson Foundation. https://www.paulwatsonfoundation.org/

BREAKING NEWS with coverage of an extraordinary court hearing in Madison, Wisconsin. Famed Open Rescue leader Wayne Hsiung is demanding that a Special Prosecutor be appointed to launch a criminal case against a large laboratory beagle breeding facility that animal advocates charge is filled with many suffering beagles. Hsiung and 2 others entered that facility with cameras rolling back in 2017, documenting conditions. They removed 3 beagles they described as being in extreme distress. Hsiung was facing felony charges and up to 16 years in prison when the case against him and the 2 others was suddenly dropped earlier this year, just days before trial was finally set to start. Now, Wayne Hsiung is back in court demanding the facility be prosecuted. UnchainedTV had a camera in court to bring viewers the developments LIVE. UnchainedTV host Jane Velez-Mitchell, attorney Mirais Holden and animal activist Tiffany Brunelli provide analysis. The company in question is invited on any time.

EMERGENCY APPEAL: Help one amazing couple save more than 100 chimpanzees. Donate here: https://www.liberiachimpanzeerescue.org/donate.html Now watch as Jenny and Dr. Jim Desmond tell their harrowing story LIVE. In 2015, a group of animal protection groups asked the Desmonds to go to Liberia to save the lives of 66 chimpanzees who the NY Blood Center abandoned on six islands after using them in biomedical research. The Desmonds planned to spend about a month in Liberia putting systems in place and finding locals to take over their care, but they were unable to leave. Soon, government authorities began bringing them orphaned baby chimps who were victims of the bushmeat and exotic pet trades. No one else in Liberia had the experience or expertise to take care of them. It has been almost ten years, and the Desmonds now have about 115 chimps in their care and dozens of employees from neighboring villages. They've built the first phase of a permanent sanctuary in the forest. They are very eager to embark on phase 2, which would enable the adult chimps to get out of their enclosures and spend time in the forest, but they can't even consider that because they don't have enough money to cover their operating expenses. The fantastic three-part BBC series about the Desmonds' conservation and rescue work, Baby Chimp Rescue, led to donations that enabled them to operate and complete phase 1, but that infusion has ended. Because they are in Liberia and do not have a network of supporters abroad, they are not raising the amount of money they need to function, much less build out the sanctuary and create an endowment. Says TheirTurn founder Donny Moss, Having visited them twice while working on the campaign to compel the NY Blood Center for pay for the care of the chimps they abandoned, I have seen the extraordinary work they do in the most challenging of environments. And, as one of the few Americans who has been there, I feel an obligation to help them and the chimps. Their charity, Liberia Chimpanzee Rescue & Protection, is registered in the U.S. VISIT: https://www.liberiachimpanzeerescue.org/ - PLEASE HELP! Now, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell interviews Jenny and Jim Desmond and TheirTurn's Donny Moss.

BREAKING NEWS: Animal Outlook releases shocking, new undercover video of chickens being abused in a California factory farm and is calling for the Fresno County District Attorney's office to file criminal animal cruelty charges against the corporation, which Animal Outlook identifies as Foster Farms, a major supplier to many big supermarkets. The video appears to show multiple instances of forklifts driving over and hitting live chickens, chickens being thrown, chickens being kicked and grabbed by their wings. Foster Farms says all of its chicken farms are American Humane Association Certified, and that the chickens it raises enjoy the 5 freedoms: including, “freedom from discomfort,” and “freedom from injury, pain, or disease.” Animal Outlook says its investigation “reveals a stark contrast, showing anything but humane care and freedom from discomfort, injury and fear.” Foster Farms is invited on any time to respond to Animal Outlook's allegations. UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell speaks to Animal Outlook's new Executive Director, Ben Williamson about this blockbuster breaking news and his fascinating history as a leader in the animal rights movement.

Asha Farm Sanctuary founder Tracy Murphy speaks to UnchainedTV about her ordeal and persecution. Murphy was a New York business executive who went vegan due to her love of animals. A decade ago, she moved to a rural area north of Buffalo to start her own sanctuary, called Asha's Farm Sanctuary. Things were going wonderfully until 2 cows wandered onto her sanctuary property in the summer of 2022. Murphy took them in and fed them. Then, all hell broke loose. She was ultimately arrested, shackled, charged with a felony and gagged from doing interviews. And, she was targeted by protests and threats as, she says, the surrounding community turned against her. Now, her charge reduced to a misdemeanor, she tells her story to UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell and pleads for help to keep her sanctuary going and get through this persecution and prosecution. To help her sanctuary, donate to: https://www.ashasfarmsanctuary.org/donate-only.html

In this extraordinary show, you will meet Delilah, a cat who survived hellish, taxpayer funded experiments at a USDA lab before being rescued by Anthony Bellotti, the President & Founder of White Coat Waste, whom you'll also meet. Millions of other animals are not so lucky. Right now, about 14,000 cats and kittens are trapped in laboratories. The domestic shorthair is one of America's most popular pets. But federal government agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), the Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA), and the Dept. of Defense (DOD) have spent millions to buy, breed, and abuse felines in wasteful laboratory torture—and YOU, the taxpayers, pay the bill whether you approve of this government sanctioned sadism or not.   But there's hope.

Hot enough for ya? The future of our planet could be determined by what American politicians put into the next FARM BILL, which currently gives MASSIVE subsidies to animal agriculture, to produce cheap meat and dairy. But, the meat and dairy industry is a HUGE contributor to climate change. Our government claims it's fighting climate change while subsidizing the very industry that's largely causing it. Will politicians vote to continue this dangerously unsustainable status quo for the next 5 years? Activists from Free From Harm continue to speak truth to power. At one so-called “listening session,” activists stood up to a pro-factory farming politician to deliver tough questions about the massive bailouts to animal agriculture, the spread of diseases like bird flu and how Big Ag Big Dollars have corrupted politics. Now, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell speaks with those activists, including Free From Harm's Robert Grillo and activist Natalie Fulton, and brings you the latest.

A group of outraged and frightened Georgia residents have united to fight a plan to put what would be America's largest laboratory monkey-breeding facility in the small town of Bainbridge, Georgia, which is 233 miles south of Atlanta. The residents have filed a lawsuit in an attempt to stop the highly controversial plan to house 30-thousand monkeys, TWICE the human population of the town. PETA is on the ground supporting the residents. They argue that the plan should be invalidated because local officials approved the proposal during an illegally assembled meeting, violating Georgia's Open Meetings Act. Basically, the citizens say this was being done behind their backs and they are furious over the impact on their safety and their property values. They say the presence of thousands of caged monkeys in distress, waiting to be shipped off for cruel experiments would be a constant source of anxiety and cast a pall over their close-knit community. Now, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell gets the very latest from PETA's Amy Meyer, Kristina Martin of Stop the Money Business Bainbridge Group and resident Linda Miller.

Today we are celebrating our 200th Episode with the return of a special friend of the podcast, Judge Tanya Acker. Acker serves as one of three judges on Amazon Freevee's Tribunal Justice, created by Judge Judy Sheindlin. Acker also hosts "The Tanya Acker Show" podcast on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Overcast, and Pocketcasts. Most recently, Acker was a judge on the Emmy-nominated series, "Hot Bench." Acker is also the author of "Make Your Case: Finding Your Win in Civil Court," published by Diversion Books. In the book, Acker provides readers with curated, targeted information about what people want to know: what happens during court proceedings and why, how to best prepare for it — and how to avoid court entirely and find out if there is a better way. Acker is an experienced civil litigator who has represented a wide array of clients, from major automobile manufacturers in high-stakes product liability litigation to media companies in hotly contested trade secret disputes. She has been a featured commentator on "Good Morning America," "The View," "Entertainment Tonight," "Wendy Williams," "The Talk," "Inside Edition," "Banfield," "The O'Reilly Factor," "Larry King Live," "CNN Reports," "Anderson Cooper 360," "Issues with Jane Velez Mitchell," "Extra," "Your World With Neil Cavuto," "HLN's Special Report," "CNBC Reports," Great Britain's "GMTV" and Sky News, and various other broadcasts. She also guest co-hosted CNBC's "Power Lunch," and "C Magazine" included her in an election season profile on noteworthy California women in politics. Acker also has contributed to the Huffington Post and served as a Temporary Judge in the Los Angeles County Superior Court Temporary Judge Program. While a student at Yale Law School, Acker represented low-income women in family law cases and served as a teaching assistant in Constitutional Law and Civil Procedure courses. She also worked at the Office of White House Counsel, the Civil Rights Division in the United States Department of Justice and the private law firms Irell & Manella, O'Melveny & Myers and Williams & Connolly. At Williams & Connolly, she assisted President Clinton's personal lawyers with press interviews, worked on the preparation of Congressional testimony for pending product liability legislation and researched First Amendment issues. After graduating from Yale, Acker served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Dorothy Wright Nelson on the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. After her clerkship, the Office of the Solicitor General in the U.S. Department of Justice awarded Acker a Bristow Fellowship. While working as a Bristow Fellow, Acker drafted Supreme Court briefs and helped prepare the Solicitor General for oral argument before the High Court. Among the cases on which Acker worked was Clinton v Jones, where she assisted both the Solicitor General and President Clinton's personal attorneys in preparing for oral argument. In private practice, Acker's legal work spanned a broad variety of matters, from civil litigation involving public and private entities, to various constitutional cases, to providing constitutional cases, to the provision of business counseling and advice. She also maintained a commitment to pro bono work, receiving the ACLU's First Amendment Award for her successful representation of a group of homeless individuals against the City of Santa Barbara. Acker later worked in entertainment industry outreach for the Kerry/Edwards presidential campaign and as Deputy Campaign Manager for the Los Angeles mayoral campaign of City Councilman Bernard C. Parks. After that, she worked as the General Counsel of a company that manufactured emissions control products. Acker received her B.A. degree at Howard University in 1992, where she graduated summa cum laude and was a member of Phi Beta Kappa. She was awarded a Luard Scholarship for study at St. Anne's College at Oxford University and served there as the co-editor-in-chief of the Oxford University Women's Magazine.

Acker maintains an active involvement in various philanthropic, civic and business organizations. A volunteer with Love Takes Root, she has traveled to Haiti to work in a clinic and orphanage founded by that organization.

PETA's founder and leader Ingrid Newkirk is celebrating her 75th birthday! And, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell is thrilled and honored to get to speak with Ingrid for the hour! Learn about Ingrid's fascinating life, growing up in India and then, somehow, becoming an animal protection officer in the United States. How much progress has been achieved since People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals was started back in 1980? A lot! As PETA points out, “At that time, researchers were experimenting on chimpanzees in squalid laboratories, pigs were being slammed into walls in car-crash tests, and dogs were being shot in military exercises. But  PETA's landmark victories for animals, including the first-ever police raid on a laboratory and convictions for cruelty to animals in the meat industry—as well as the media attention that has accompanied them—have led to a huge change in public attitudes, and the victories keep coming.    “These days, the demand for vegan food has skyrocketed, Ringling Bros. has reinvented itself as a stunning animal-free circus, nearly every major fashion brand has gone fur-free, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is no longer required to mandate archaic and cruel animal tests for new drugs. PETA's work continues, with campaigns that include calling on fashion houses to stop selling reptile skins, pushing for lifesaving reforms in the horse racing industry, and fighting the monkey-to-laboratory pipeline. Now, Ingrid would like you to celebrate her birthday by going to https://www.peta.org/75 and seeing the 75 easy ways you can speak up for animals!

During this period, he blazed the trail for high speed signal processing chips and technologies for High Definition Television, real-time video communications and the transformation of early analog internet connections to more robust digital connections, while accelerating their speeds ten-fold.

He is the author of 22 peer-reviewed technical papers, 50 standards contributions, 10 US patents and 3 Canadian patents. He was the co-founder of Silicon Design Experts in 1991 which was acquired by Level One Communications in 1996 and which was later acquired by Intel Corporation in 1999 for $2.2 billion. In 2006, he switched careers and became deeply immersed, full time, in solving the environmental crises affecting humanity. Dr. Rao is the author of four books, Carbon Dharma: The Occupation of Butterflies, Carbon Yoga: The Vegan Metamorphosis, Animal Agriculture is Immoral and The Pinky Promise, and an Executive Producer of several documentaries, The Human Experiment (2013), Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret (2014), What The Health (2017), A Prayer for Compassion (2019), They're Trying to Kill Us (2021), The End of Medicine (2022), The Land of Ahimsa (2022), Animals – A Parallel History (est. 2024), Milked (2022), Christspiracy (2024) and I Could Never Go Vegan (2024).

Dr. Rao is a Human, Earth and Animal Liberation (HEAL) activist, husband, dad and since 2010, a star-struck grandfather. He has promised his granddaughter, Kimaya Rainy Rao, that the world will be largely Vegan before she turns 16 in 2026, so that people will stop eating her relatives, the animals. He has faith that humanity will transform to keep his pinky promise to Kimaya, not just for ethical reasons, but also out of sheer ecological necessity. Along with Kimaya, Dr. Rao was the co-recipient of the inaugural Homo Ahimsa award from the Interfaith Vegan Coalition in 2021. He has formally taken the Ubuntu pledge to become Homo Ahimsa. Dr. Rao was honored with the Karmaveer Puraskaar Global Indian award by the Indian Confederation of NGOs (ICONGO) in 2008, the Shining World Award for Earth Protection from the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association in 2020 and the Winsome Constance Kindness Medal by the Winsome Constance Kindness Trust in 2022.

As the battle over the Farm Bill rages on Capitol Hill, 3 animal activists were arrested, during a House committee hearing, for demanding that taxpayers not be forced to pay for massive subsidies to the animal agriculture industry or foot the bill for cruel practices that also devastate the environment and hurt marginalized communities. Robert Grillo, president of the grassroots animal rights organization Free From Harm, was one of those arrested and joins us to tell the tale and warn us about the dangers of the Farm Bill, which could prop up animal agriculture with huge government subsidies for years to come and which also threatens to thwart the will of the people who've passed propositions against the cruelest animal agriculture practices.

Is there a multi-million dollar misinformation campaign to stop the plant-based food movement in its tracks? The Freedom Food Alliance, led by renowned digital media expert Robbie Lockie, has just released a detailed report which makes that case. Harvesting Denial, Distractions and Deception: Understanding Animal Agriculture's Disinformation Strategies and Exploring Solutions argues that the meat industry - though companies, lobbyists, trade groups, checkoff programs, influencers and so-called experts and industry-backed academics - is waging a full-scale misinformation and disinformation campaign against vegan products and the plant-based movement in general. This is happening at our own peril, as the climate crisis worsens and advertiser-based mainstream media basically ignores one of the biggest causes: animal agriculture. The media runs story after story attacking plant-based meat alternatives as processed while failing to mention that processed meat is officially cancer-causing, according to the World Health Organization. When the World Bank recently called for governments to shift away from subsidizing meat and dairy and embrace alternatives proteins, that urgent recommendation was ignored by mainstream media. So, what can we do to save ourselves, animals and the planet? Let's find out from Robbie Lockie, one of the founders of Plant Based News whose new campaign is getting the real story out to the world before it's too late.
