Nice Couch with Ira Bershatsky

Today, The Two Mikes talked with Nicole McCaw, a journalist and documentary-maker, who is focused on the unfolding, federal-government orchestrated disaster that is occurring along America's southern border. 

Ms. McCaw explained that her investigations have shown that 60-percent to 80-percent of the many thousands of women and children who are being trafficked across the southern border have been raped -- many repeatedly -- or otherwise molested. Almost 16.5 million illegal aliens have been allowed into America since 2021, Ms. McCaw said. 

She also said that her investigations found that the Biden regime also is doing virtually nothing to stop the inflow of fentanyl into the country. In essence, Ms. McCaw said, this China-supported smuggling of fentanyl is nothing less than an attack on the United States by a weapon of mass destruction, with 400 Americans now dying each day as result of fentanyl. Ms. McCaw stressed that too many Americans still have no clear idea of how lethally dangerous this U.S. government-protected human-inundation is both to the country's peace and prosperity, and the survival of the United States.

This anti-American attack on the United States by the Biden Administration also is being supported by some of the best-known NGOs, including Catholic, Mormon, Lutheran charities. She and her associate Tim Rose have made a 1-hour-and-20 minute documentary called "Borderwar", information about which can be found at https://www.borderdoc.com.

Today, The Two Mikes again spoke to Gordon Oliver from Cambridge Credit Counseling. Mr. Oliver, frank as always, said that the signs of more economic problems for those with debt problems have not wholly abated. The nation's credit card debt has increased to 1.3 trillion and college-loan debts have increased to $1.92 trillion. In addition, in the past year 40-percent of Americans have dipped into their retirement funds to avoid foreclosures. On the school loans, Mr. Oliver noted that the government's new move to "forgive" $11 billion dollars for public employees at all levels of government -- which of course came at a time Biden is desperate for votes in any place he can find him -- ends on 30 April 2024, and even those public employees who were refused forgiveness on the first try can apply again and see if they can follow the required application process. Mr. Oliver also said that, at the moment, the single worst investment a consumer can make is to purchase an automobile -- which loses 25-percent of its value the moment you drive it off the lot. Needless to say, the interest rates on car loans also are through the roof. As to the future, Mr. Oliver said that while the economic and financial impact of the COCID debacle are about finished, there still probably are rough waters ahead, and, as always, people must take responsibility for themselves to plan their economic future.The place to start is by putting together a spending plan (budget) that details your expenses, see where that can be reduced, and then do your best to stick to that plan. That is where Cambridge Credit counseling can help. Cambridge is a non-profit NGO and has helped a large number of people to create such plans, and they do so at no charge to the consumer.No one can know for sure how rough future economic times will be, but a commonsense spending plan, or budget, is an important tool to have ready to face the future, come what may. --Cambridge Credit Counseling: Tel:  1 800-235-1407; Website:  https://www.cambridge-credit.orgSubscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE: https://rumble.com/c/freedomfirstnetwork Elevate your meals with Freedom First Beef… even if you find yourself in the middle of the apocalypse!

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Fred Coulter, the pastor of the Christian Biblical Church of Christ in Hollister, California. As Christians are marking Holy Week, Mr. Coulter threw a bracing bucket of cold water on the increasingly severe mistakes that Christians are taught throughout their lives, and by which they live their lives, while passing on inaccurate beliefs to their children. We spoke to Mr. Coulter for over an hour and there follows a summary of the several points he made. --Christians of the Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox faiths follow a version of Easter that was never observed by the Apostles. As on many other issues this world lives on the basis of lies. --Easter and Holy Week are not to be found in the Bible in the way we now celebrate them. As Ezekiel says in Chapter 8, God cannot be worshiped with lies and pagan theology. --Catholics, in particular, appear to model many of the faith's holidays on the pagan holidays that were celebrated in Babylon. The word "Easter" for example, appears to be based on the Babylonian goddess Ishtar (a word that is now pronounced Easter). Ishtar, of course, had nothing to do with Jesus Christ. In addition, our Easter Sunday "Sunrise Services" appear to be based on sunrise services that started in Babylon, wherein the pagan peoples priests prayed to the soon for the resurrection of departed gods. the Bible, of course, says "Do not learn the ways of the heathens." --The marking of Ash Wednesday is another tradition that is to be found nowhere in the Bible. --The correct Sabbath day of all Christians is Saturday not Sunday. Neither the Saturday sabbath nor the Old Testament are the exclusive property of the Jewish faith. Likewise, the Old Testament is as relevant for today's Christians; indeed, it is a perpetual part of their faith. --Mr. Coulter concluded by saying that today's Americans -- because of the abominations they regularly practice -- ought to pay close attention to Deuteronomy, Chapter 28, Verses, 43-44 and 49-50, which offer a warning to Americans in a way that is completely appropriate to their country as it now stands. "The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low. He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail. ... The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle fleet; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favor to the young."Mr. Coulter’s websites include: https://www.CBCG.org  and https://www.truthofGod.org Mr. Coulter’s websites offer an array of books that can be used by a person seeking God or seeking to return to God. Many of the books are available for no charge.  P.S.

Today, the Two Mikes spoke with Mr. Barry Moore, a good and valued friend of our podcast, and earlier of our efforts on the radio. Currently, Mr. Moore is the President and CEO of the Better Business Bureau of Central Virginia, (BBB, https://www.bbb.org). Mr. Moore noted that the BBB was founded in 1912, and from that time till this the Bureau has not received a cent of support from any government. All of its money come from the business and citizens who contribute to support the BBB’s work.Moreover, the BBB has nothing to do with any government. The BBB’s activities are solely intended to help the community it represents – in Mr. Moore’s case Central Virginia -- to work together, as well as to protect the businesses that abide by the BBB’s standards and to help all citizens who are looking for a particular service to find firms they can count on, and thereby avoid companies that cut corners, leave work partially completed, or are just plain scammers.Indeed, the BBB’s website has created and maintains a Scam Tracker for the use of would-be customers seeking to steer clear of fraudsters, scammers, or other bad apples. Mr. Moore concluded by recommending this year’s “CEO Convention”. It is being organized by Liberty University’s Provost Dave Bratt and will be held at the school in the September-October, 2024timeframe. The convention’s precise dates will be announced shortly.Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE: https://rumble.com/c/freedomfirstnetwork Elevate your meals with Freedom First Beef… even if you find yourself in the middle of the apocalypse!

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Nate Cain, a true Republican candidate for Congress from West Virginia’s 2nd congressional district. The interview turned out to be a humdinger and a bit lengthy, so we are publishing in two parts. Mr. Cain is an Army veteran, and also has been a civilian employee of the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the FBI. While working for the FBI, Mr. Cain became one of the most important whistle-blowers we have ever heard of. During his FBI tenure 2017-2018, Nate saw FBI documents that showed that then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, her associates in Obama’s regime – at the highest levels, such as two FBI Directors and other senior DOJ officials, and major Clinton donors – had behaved treasonously, and otherwise criminally via money-laundering, “pay-to-play”, and illegal transfers of uranium to Russia. Mr. Cain took the documents to Congressman Devin Nunes and received whistle-blower protection under the law, but the FBI fired him and raided his home, taking his electronic devices and deeply upsetting his wife and children. Giving enormous credence to Mr. Cain’s claims about the nature of the information he delivered to Nunes is that fact that he still holds his security clearances, showing that he acted legally and truthfully by getting the documents to Congress, and that the FBI, DOJ, the Clintons and the Obamas knew that and feared if the issue was not buried “it could bring down the whole government.” In his congressional race in West Virginia’s 2nd district, Mr. Cain stands as center-right Republican with a Christian perspective on the world, and says he is determined to fight the neo-fascist corporatism that is now abroad in his state and the nation. He has been conducting a grass roots, very localized campaign to get his message out, so far clocking 60,000 miles on the family car in the effort. After he entered the race, members of the Republican caucus in the state’s legislature asked him to drop out in favor of his opponent. His opponent is Riley Moore, the nephew of Republican U.S. Senator Moore Capito. Mr. Cain refused and afterward found it nearly impossible to schedule any radio interviews in the state. The refusals from radio programs included the biggest radio voice in the state, one that covers every county in West Virginia. Why, well the Moore family is plenty wealthy and former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy was quick to endorse Riley Moore immediately as soon as he entered the race. There still seems to be RINO’s rampant in West Virginia.  Mr. Cain’s opponent, Riley Moore, was West Virginia’s treasurer and won applause – including from The Two Mikes, for which we humbly offer this mea culpa for getting slicked – for fighting the attempt of banks to enforce their ESG rules against energy companies in West Virginia. Mr. Cain spent the second half of the program suggesting quite strongly that Mr. Moore may not be the conservative he claims to be. Before returning to West Virginia, Mr. Cain alleged Mr. Moore worked in Washington as a “Registered Foreign Agent” that is he was a lobbyist of the Congress for the interests of foreign organizations and countries like Hong Kong, after its return to China, Somalia, and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. He also worked with John and Tony Podesta, the later a noted collector of “art” showing children in unusual activities. He also worked with Tony Podesta in Ukraine where he helped Podesta's lobbying activities, but during which he was not registered as a “Foreign Agent”.Most recently, Moore has been associated with John Podesta to bring a large battery project to the northern part of West Virginia. The scoundrels behind this project are Bill Gates and George Soros and they have scrounged $290 million dollars in West Virginia taxpayer money for building facilities and manufacturing the batteries – Riley Moore through a proxy voted for $220 million-dollars of that amount. They also have already persuaded the U.S. Congress give them an exemption from a standing ban on Chinese technology and hardware for use in such projects, and an exemption from the Environmental Protection Agency from a ban meant to keep polluted water from the project being dumped into fresh waters, in this case the Ohio River. Shades of Palestine Ohio. The Gates-Soros team also refused to guarantee that most of the 750 jobs created by the project would go to West Virginians. Doesn’t sound like much of a bargain for working or unemployed West Virginians.Instead of take me home West Virginia we say, Take the $290 million back.Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE: https://rumble.com/c/freedomfirstnetwork Elevate your meals with Freedom First Beef… even if you find yourself in the middle of the apocalypse!

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Alexander Rossino, who holds a PH.D in history from Syracuse University, and is the author of Their Maryland: The Army of Northern Virginia from the Potomac Crossing to Sharpsburg in September 1862. Dr. Rossino's book seeks to supply answers to a number of questions that still surround the whys and wherefores of the Sharpsburg/Antietam Battle. One of these questions is why did General Lee take his army into Maryland? One traditionally offered reason still stands true, Lee wanted to take the war out of Virginia to allow the state's farmers to harvest their crops. More important, though, Lee's decision for Maryland focused on a major political aspect of the war, expanding the Confederacy. Lee brought his army into Maryland in an attempt to exploit what was thought to be the ardor of many Marylanders to join the Confederate States of America. In essence, Dr. Rossino explains, the army carried a message from Richmond that amounted to "we have come to welcome you into our new nation, if you so choose, and we are ready to spill the army's blood to protect you if you choose to join." As things worked out, relatively few Confederates rallied to the offer from Lee and the Confederacy. Indeed, after some of the bloodiest fighting in U.S. history, Lee's army fought the Army of the Potomac to a draw, and was able to withdraw back across the Potomac to safety in Virginia. Another question that always arises about Lee's actions is why did Lee and his army go into western Maryland rather than eastern Maryland along the Atlantic shore? This area, after all, was known to have strong supporters of the Confederacy and most of the state's slaves. Lee's motivation on this score was pretty clear cut, had he moved east he would have cleared a path for Union forces to sweep into the heart of Virginia. There is of course much more to answering both of these questions, and Dr. Rossino's book tells a fuller and more detailed story for each of them, as well as for several of the other major questions that are still asked about Lee's invasion of Maryland. Dr. Rossino is an excellent speaker and tells his story in very clear and concise terms. It was our pleasure to speak with and learn from him. Dr. Rossino's other Civil War-era books include: Calamity at Frederick; The Tale Untwisted: George McClellan and the Discovery of Lee's lost Order (co-author Gene M. Thorp); Six Days in September, A Novel of Lee's Army in Maryland; and the forthcoming, The Guns of September, McClelland's Army in Maryland,1862. All of the books are published by and available from America's top Civil War publishing house, Savas Beattie, as well as from Amazon and many other booksellers.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Max Ukropina who is running as a Republican for the 47th Congressional District in Orange County, California. To do this, Mr. Ukropina underlines that he has no desire to become a career politician, and is taking time away from his successful financial technology business. He intends to go back to that business after serving a few terms in Congress. Being a successful business builder, Mr. MacMillan said, he has grown tired of the national political process that sends people to Washington who prove themselves to be useless, but are sent back over and over again in succeeding elections. If elected, Mr. Ukropina says that he will work toward the abolition of entire departments of the federal government and the regular auditing of every department remaining. He said he would settle for getting rid of 50-to-75 percent of the federal civil servants, but only if he cannot achieve agreement on 100-percent. Mr. Ukropina clearly is a bit of an anti-big-government firebrand, a model of a congressman of which we have far too few.Sponsors Triangle Fragrance: https://trianglefragrance.com/?sca_ref=4171318.dUndUHDKz3Cambridge Credit: https://www.cambridge-credit.org/twomikes/ EMP Shield: https://www.empshield.com/?coupon=twomikesOur Gold Guy: https://www.ourgoldguy.com www.TwoMikes.us

Today, the Two Mikes spoke and listened to and learned from Fred Coulter, the head of the Christian Biblical Church of God in Hollister, California.Reflecting on the recent Valentine's Day celebration, Mr. Coulter said that most people ignore the fact that the day of the celebration is really the day on which the martyrdom of St. Valentine is remembered and honored. The day that is now celebrated is a day for the pagans which began in Rome as a holiday for the fertility of women. Currently, Halloween Day is not only a celebration of paganism, but even more a day of honoring Satan and the depravity he brings. Even the Catholic Church has surrendered and poses no objection to Catholics celebrating Halloween and its demonstration of depravity. Mr. Coulter also said the Catholics are not the only church that has forgotten the requirement of abiding by God's word. He said that Catholicism is not a real religion, that Judaism is not a real religion, and that Protestantism came close, but has dropped far from being a real religion. He added that this is an odd fact, because there is no one on earth today that does not have the opportunity to read the Bible, the only basis for building a real religion. There are no excuses for not knowing God's word, as today the Bible is available in all of the earth's languages. America was founded on the word of the Bible, and the writings of those who used it as the basis of their thought. The Puritans were thankful for God for helping them come to a new land and created a country that was dedicated to preaching God's word. The Puritans knew and taught that God sought obedience to His word and repentance for the sins committed. America's drift away from its Christian founding is in large part the reason for the republic's current problems, the Chinese threat, the invasion of illegal aliens, and the perversity of our society are punishments from God, whose command to all of us "to obey my voice" has been all but forgotten, just as his guiding commandments have been mostly banned from public discussion or display.   Mr. Coulter’s websites include: https://www.CBCG.com and https://www.truthofGod.com. Mr. Coulter’s websites offer an array of books that can be used by a person seeking God or seeking to return to God. All of the books are available for no charge.  P.S. by Colonel Mike Imagine that no grifting for money? It’s because the Lord provides. Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE.Indulge in the finest quality with Freedom First Beef – sous vide, freeze-dried, and ready to savor today or in a decade.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Dan Baranowski, who described himself as a registered respiratory therapist and a lifelong conservative. Mr. Baranowski said that in his career -- both as a therapist and a conservative -- he saw the slow but sure degradation of the concept of honesty in the federal government, as well as the gradual joining of that deceit with blatant lies and the rabid detestation of the United States. Under the Democrats, the U.S. government has deliberately corrupted many of America's key governmental institutions. The Biden and Obama administrations used wokeism in the form of the policy of DEI, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, which, of course, is a tool for producing and promoting as many incompetent and usually minority individuals into the civil service, military forces, intelligence agencies, and health-related organizations so they could wreak havoc in their quality, reliability, honesty, while at the same time promoting anti-America hatred and racial animosities across the country. The federal government made sure that giant private sector companies followed suit, and those firms are now bragging about how many more minorities than whites they hire, and how they arbitrarily pay whites at lower rates than their minority hires. Finally, Mr. Baranowski noted that the scourge of DEI has now infected and so debilitated medical schools, law schools, and Ivy League universities, and they now seem to produce as many -- or more -- demented, sexually depraved, and authoritarian-oriented graduates as their do well-trained and disciplined professionals. Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE.

Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Charlie Trig who founded and owns a cyber-security company called Aegis Cyber Defense Systems (https://ww.aegiscds.com). Mr. Trig is a software and web developer who started the Aegis company and developed a product called Aegis Cyber Defense, which is especially designed to help small businesses protect themselves against cyber and ransomware attacks. Once installed, the company's app also helps the computer’s own anti-virus system more effectively. The defense system is self-installed by the user after purchase. The system consists of a shield that prevents attacks from 780 million IPs that the company has identified as a hacking site and which is updated every 30 minutes. Overall he said, about 18-percent of the Internet is home to nefarious actors. Mr. Trig said that his own company’s computer infrastructure is protected by the application and has been hit by up to 30,000 attacks per day and has never been violated. Mr. Trig noted that, in much of the world, hackers are assisted by the national governments. This phenomenon is common in the EU – with The Netherlands in the lead in hacker aid – and other European countries like Romania. The Russian and Chinese governments, too, support various hacker organizations in their countries. In addition, in the United States and many other countries in the world, hosting companies – even famous ones – are rather indifferent toward protecting their customers from hackers.Subscribe to Freedom First Network on Rumble to watch all of our shows LIVE.Indulge in the finest quality with Freedom First Beef – sous vide, freeze-dried, and ready to savor today or in a decade.
