  2. They never should have underestimated the Mamas. The lionesses! This woman is amazing!!! So intelligent, eloquent and TOUGH. However, there are thousands like her. Maybe millions.
    And they are banding together.
    Honey…. we have already won.
    Because we all have ONE goal. Its a sharp, point of a sword: to protect the children.
    And guess what! We got their fathers on our side too. Plus an army of scientists and doctors.
    And then more children join the “placebo group” the more EVERYONE will see the truth with their own eyes: We are all better off if we don’t trust Big Pharma to make our decisions for us!

  5. I hope that the chemtrails will stop.
    Can’t make America healthy as long as the spraying continues. It is a fact that chemtrails have been sprayed, for at least 30 years, in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. How can ANYONE get healthy? It would have made sense to tell people to mask up for chemtrails, not C19. They could have had us all masked up decades ago. Hiding and denying chemtrails was, and is, more important. The patents are there, WTP pay for it. Not enough care or are even aware of it happening. Still needs to stop.

    1. Interesting thoughts! My dad was a potato farmer/broker. I married into a farm family. As with everything (until you are enlightened) one trusts that the “experts” know what they are talking about. We’ve been told the chemicals are “safe” that we apply to the field product that becomes consumable food. Here again, has that been tested? Who participated in that study? Who provided the funds for that study?

      I was out for a walk a few years back. We have a road that runs along one of our fields. Some of it is dirt. Some of it is grass. When I stepped onto the dirt, something about it made me bend over and pick up a handful of it. It fell through my fingers like powdered sugar. I could sense that our soil seemed over worked and deplete. I was shocked! Shortly thereafter, while scrolling through YouTube looking for something intelligent to fill my mind with, this conversation of regenerative farming came up. I might have scrolled right past had I not picked that soil up. After watching many different videos on the subject of soil health and also being in the loop of the “vaccine” lie said to my husband, I think we’ve been lied to about our farm practices as well. That set us on a course of doing better. I applaud the idea of regenerative farming. Implementing the concept isn’t as easy as it looks based on crop rotation, conditions of where you live etc. We’ve implemented some of it. Just not to the level I wish we could

      All being said… the economic discussion would be interesting and is needed. As you know government for whatever reason seems to think subsidies are a necessary part of farming. Maybe you need to introduce this conversation to the regenerative movement.

  8. As a vegetable farmer it seems to me that Ian Somerhalder is not very uninformed about the economic, political, supply chain processors, distributors and retail stores relationship or lack of relationship to farmers. What makes a farming community healthy financially and emotionally? That is the question I wish Ian had explored more.
    .
    Ian talks about the science of soil, corruption in college research etc. to get clicks but does not spend much time talking about the very important aspect of building truthful personal relationships between participants in the supply chain so everyone can be financially and emotionally healthy.

    Ian laughs that the farmers do not trust anyone except farmers. This is kinda true in my experience. IMO it is because #1 the processors, distributors and retailers do not talk honestly to farmers but instead work to buy the products from the farmer as cheaply as possible with out regard for the financial impact on the farmer by buying the crop for a little as possible. The financial health of the farmer is not considered by the other members in the supply chain in my opinion.
    #2 farmers know the mother nature is in charge and is honest, consistent and truthful whereas most people today have no connection to growing any thing and they have lost the connection to something spiritual that all farmers understand. Hence farmers enjoy talking to other farmers because of their shared experience of working with mother nature..

    If the soil health all across the country were to change as Ian describes; the economic model of regenerative farming would to change also if the regenerative farms are to survive financially over time.. It would be great to have a discussion about the unspoken conflict of the economics of farming. There is also the question if in farming is being a bigger farmer better than being a small farmer? I believe most regenerative farmers would say no to that question about size..

    Ian talks about soil health and microbiome and as a practicing biodynamic farmer we have known about the importance of biome/soil biology for over 40 years. Biodynamic farming is one of the oldest forms of regenerative farming in this modern era. Biodynamic practices were introduced in 1924.
    IMO the knowledge of the soil health is not new to any current regenerative farmer. This is information on soil biology will not usually be found in our land grant colleges because they are funded by corporations that seek to create an economic advantage for them in the market place. This corporate capture of the universities is part of the problem of this current economic picture in agriculture today. .

  11. After Mr Kennedys announcement about finding the cause of Autism I came across several Social media posts that included his announcement. I decided to check out the comments thinking I would find “thank God”…. it’s “about time” instead found comments that prove how heavily a society can be conditioned. Comments were plentiful suggesting that the numbers are what they are bcuz the goal post has been moved in the diagnosis for Autism. It’s as if there is no reason to look bcuz of this fact. Regardless of their goal post theory, whether the diagnosis is based on mild characteristics or severe or anything in between, those ear marks are there. In other words, what is causing it?

  13. I tried to be a warrior mom and got put in a mental institution for three days of observation. Six or seven people were standing outside, 6′ apart, wearing masks (including an N95) on a sunny day… in order to walk through a small building to an outside pool to go swimming. I tried to tell them about the statistics. I told them what retired neurosurgeon Dr. Russell Blaylock said about masks…. I had left down the trail walking our dog; the cops drew up to me to arrest me. They wrote in the report that I threatened to kill people; or else the hospital lied about that. They wrote in the report that I was in the pool area. Later a retired Sheriff officer told me they routinely use the mental health law (for people who are a clear threat to themselves or to others) instead of arresting them for disorderly conduct or disturbing the peace. The bogus arrest circumvents the due process provided by the disorderly or disturbing charges. Facts don’t matter. Our Constitutional rights don’t matter. Worse stuff has happened to others. An East Lake, FL fire commissioner was arrested and spent the night in jail for not wearing a mask when he was out on a street on the east coast of FL. A mom was thrown to the floor and arrested and spent the night in jail; she was exiting a school board meeting with her mask not up over her nose. Etc etc etc.. Part of it is because even the cops BELIEVED the lies. I know I believed about HIV because of all we were gaslighted about in the 1980s.

  15. I know the Highwire is not a political format. But I would say that all the great work you do through the health issues you and your guests bring forth, you have had a tremendous impact on the political “system”. The learnings you were pivotally responsible for uncovering during the plandemic have led to the awakening of millions. This awakening lit the fuse to looking at the incentives of the “powers that be” in pushing the false narratives and the censorship of the truth tellers. Money, corruption, who is really behind the collapse of our country and the institutions that are supposed to work on our behalf. It is all interconnected and I thank God I saw your presentation with the football analogy describing how the spike protein work and I have been an avid watcher of The Highwire ever since and a 4 year monthly contributor to ICAN. The best investment I can make to assure my kids and grandkids have a chance for a decent life. THANK YOU DEL AND TEAM.

  19. There’s a problem here. Why the music behind a powerful statement. Also why wait to release your findings. I have concerns about government influence. Why now maybes episode 407.

  20. My friend is a retired nurse. She cared for a woman who acquire GBS after a flu shot, so my friend was determined to not take the shot. She was required to wear a mask (which she wore around her neck), since she refused the shot. She said that year after year her coworkers regularly got influenza, whereas she did not. This was quite some time ago, for crying out loud.
