Episode 100: Dimensional Mind Control: In a series of stunning victories, the pro-freedom movement pulls ahead! CDC and NIH experts quitting in droves, a NY State judge strikes down governor Hochul's draconian Covid powers, FBI docs show the Proud Boys are innocent of J6 allegations, and a federal judge orders the Biden administration to cooperate with a lawsuit over collusion with Big Tech to censor free speech. Also, doctors in New Zealand and the U.K. are demanding that police investigate the unusual number of deaths following vaccination, as autocrats extend their faux-power by extending the health emergency and implementing renewed indoor mask mandates in LA and NY. Then our guest, MYC Agnew, joins us to discuss how to shift our perception and hence our perspective on the way we deal with the enormous weight of evil being foisted upon us. We discuss the deceptive nature of our opposition, the true call to action for God's warriors, and how we might better use our strengths in thi by The Free America Podcast

Episode 105: The Tide Turns in Favor of Humanity: At last! Good news for the human race as the Covid narrative and its related effects are being rolled back. YouTube and other tech platforms are no longer censoring speech related to the inefficacy and dangers of masks, and the inefficacy of the vaccines. The Department of Homeland Security has officially terminated the ill-fated Disinformation Board, NY Governor Hochul ends quarantining in schools, and CNN analyst Leana Wen shifts her position on masking children, but only after her own child was effected. Plus, three California courts rule Governor Newsom's lockdown orders were unconstitutional, opening the way for businesses (like Tinhorn Flats) to sue the government for damages, a federal court of appeals holds up the injunction of Biden's illegal vaccine mandate for federal contractors, and Pentagon officials scramble to escape blame for the unlawful Pentagon order mandating mRNA for troops.
