  1. Concerning AT&T, where I live in a large town in Northern Louisiana, AT&T is the only option for landline service. Even though I have a cell phone (with a different carrier), I kept my landline for emergencies, especially during hurricanes and major storms. 8 years ago next month, we had torrential rainstorms for 3 days, 33 inches total, with my front yard and street flooded, with waves nipping at my front door (HAARP?). Yes, my phone still worked during the flood. We have small telephone pedestals in our front yards close to the street, about every 4 to 6 townhouses. They are about 6 inches square and 3 feet high. Around 2 years ago, I noticed that this landline service was becoming spotty. Some days it worked, sometimes with static, other days the line was dead. A new neighbor bumped into theirs or the yard crew backed into it when they cut down a tree. It was dented severely and split open. Corrosion city, probably as a result of the flood. So, AT&T did not and does not maintain landline equipment in my area. When I called to complain, they told me I must have an internal phone wire problem within my house. In addition, my monthly phone bill has gone from $39 to $61 over the last 5 years. Of the 4 neighbors I know and 3 former neighbors, none have or had landline service here. My walking buddy switched his landline to US Mobile, which uses a cell phone modem instead of physical wires, for his home phone service @ $10/month. I am now in process of switching over to them, just waiting for my phone number to port over so I can drop AT&T. The phone modem I purchased from US Mobile was $51, one time charge. Granted, I would still prefer a wired landline, but with shoddy maintenance and intermittent service and increased cost, why bother?

    1. Proper regulation would not allow such poor service. They are destroying the landline system in this way. IMO criminal. The pathway to total control.

    2. Yet, AT&T is installing underground fiber optic lines for internet and phone service. My walking buddy lives 2 blocks behind me on a parallel street to mine. He signed up for their internet service 8 months ago and loves it. It’s a tad faster than Comcast Cable Xfinity internet, which he had been using, but still uses their cable TV service. I was hoping AT&T would install fiber optic lines on my street, and I lingered staying with them for that purpose. However, looking at their website recently for updates on their fiber optics expansion, they have no plans at all to include my street or the 3 streets to the north. They end at my backdoor neighbor’s street. That was the final straw for me to change companies.

  2. More and more information is going out about censorship, soon it would be a flood.
    “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of the oppostion, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear” Harry S. Truman

  3. Hi Catherine,

    Please pass along to John about LineageOS, CalyxOS, and GrapheneOS:

    Actually, Android is an Open Source Software operating system (OS). Google just merely customized it to be their own. LineageOS, CalyxOS, and GrapheneOS are all Android operating systems as well.

    What some people do is “de-Google” their Google Android phone and install one of the three above other Android OSs.

    Here is privacy advocate Rob Braxman who gives an overview:

    Naomi Brockwell is also a privacy advocate and more accessible and less technical than Braxman:

    And here’s an article on it (They also sell de-Googled phones–not an endorsement):

    I hope this is helpful.

      1. “~ Based on negative feedback from Solari Report subscribers who ordered Bob Braxman’s cell phone and were not able to access adequate tech support or refund, we do not recommend it. ~”

  4. Quite “heavy” information at 1:15. Big Pharma? MIC? Chinese? No, its the central bankers. They fund all wars win on the losers and winners.

  5. Now my diabetic husband has the latest, a G7 sensor on his arm. We frequently check the reading on a small monitor. The information is helpful as we navigate other aspects of his accumulated poisoning. His joints have dissolved; one knee was replaced 14 days ago, and it’s tricky to juggle the opioids and the dopamine for the Parkinson’s. I won’t tell him about the DARPA connection, and haven’t mentioned the DoD interest in his other injections. But you can see why we won’t be the ones wielding the firearms. If we make it to July, we will have 50 years of marriage. That’s how we win.

    1. You are one strong woman. Knowing what you know and dealing with your husband’s illness every day creates a lot of stress. 50 years together has a lot of joyful moments to look back on. I hope you find joy wherever you can. Prayers for you both.

  6. You are right about the push to digitize everything. At dusk today I needed to go for a walk to “hug a tree” and found a beauty in the university quad across the way. After standing with my back to it for a bit looking at the moon through its branches, I walked around to the other side and there was a tag 1/2″ by 2″ pinned into the bark at my height that said “tree #0897”. Did the university digitize all its trees?!

    1. Yes, that is in order to built the digital cities or smart cities, they need to tag everything in the real environment to get a quick information about the item (plant), pull it from the data base and when they pass the sensor drone above it to get the actual 3d mapping. That is the Internet of Things – IoT. Unfortunately, they are generating a digital twin map of some cities for now, but eventually “could” be of everything. The cities involved as of now are about 20s including Austin (reason why people are leaving), Orlando, NY, etc.

        1. Well, Chattanooga Is One of Two Cities to Join the Smart City Alliance! Not sure Catherine knows. It is coming to TN!During its Smart City Expo World Congress last month, the World Economic Forum announced that Chattanooga and San Jose, California were picked among three dozen cities around the globe to pilot adoption of new technologies being developed by the G20 Global Smart Cities Alliance.

  7. This is an extraordinary interview.

    About free speech, and the suppression thereof, explained by someone who out to know. Mike Benz, a deep insider turned people’s evidence. Long, but dense. Watch Carlson’s face…flushed red. Why? Maybe because Carlson knows that the interviewee is talking about things “they”, the insiders, are forbidden to talk about, or because Carlson genuinely didn’t know this stuff. Or maybe somewhere in-between. 

    If this is a limited hangout, it’s an unlimited limited hangout.
