About this episode

Alex Jones, Jeff Davis, and Steve Lane lead a defiant sovereignty protest at the Texas State Capitol to challenge the expansion of the New World Order. The demonstration features the public shredding of a United Nations flag as participants reject international governance in favor of strict constitutional adherence. Jones details his transition to a nightly radio slot on KJFK and plans for national syndication while acquiring new surveillance-grade media equipment to document federal overreach.

Steve Lane confronts Rich Parsons of News 36 over the media blackout regarding biometric mandates for Texas driver licenses, including executive orders for mandatory thumb scans and biological sampling. The broadcast highlights claims from FLIR technology experts alleging FBI snipers fired on Branch Davidians during the Waco siege. Former federal agents Ted Gunnarson and Frederick Weihurst provide testimony regarding internal corruption within the BATF and the systemic de-industrialization of the United States. A musical tribute to Sheriff Richard Mack of Utah reinforces the growing Second Amendment resistance movement against firearm confiscation.

Protesters at an Austin Fourth of July rally identify and chase off a suspected intelligence surveillance vehicle attempting to photograph the crowd. Alex Jones describes the urgency of the Bill of Rights while citizens are distracted by holiday festivities at Town Lake. The program marks a technical turning point for the Freedom Report as it integrates wireless microphones and professional video cameras for field operations.


CHAPTER 01 / 9 Discussion

Sheriff Richard Mack and Second Amendment Resistance Song

00:00 And by the time they realized, they couldn't get away. Take my gun from my cold dead hands.

00:43 I'm old man Harry Israel, by the name of Sheriff Mac! The people dared to stand, in every case through history when genocide was planned. The firearms were gathered ahead the opposition banned. The tyrants made the statues and the people looked away And by the time they realized they couldn't get away

01:23 A man up in Utah by the name of Sheriff Mack said we've lost our Constitution and we've got to take it back! The right to keep and bear arms when the bill breaks its end isn't there to haunt or target shoot, it's there to help defend. There ain't nothing here to compromise, there's a line here as I stand that you can tap my gun from my cold dead hand Take your globalist agenda and your new world order And you can take my gun from my cold dead hands What part of arm-infringe do you not understand? You can take my gun from my cold dead hand

I just wanted to ask the type of reporting that you do, mainly about questions like why we haven't seen much reporting on the fact that you have to thumb scan to get your driver's license and 25% of the public is going to give blood urine samples in order for them to get their drivers license. That is documented in executive order

And it's an Israel thing, how does the response go to this? The War on Emergency Powers Act. Over and out. Being lied to on a daily basis!
