PROTECTING A BRIGHT FUTURE
19 minutes ago

The United States is behind the curve on clean, affordable sources of electricity. It's time to modernize our antiquated electrical grid and advanced nuclear power generation capabilities.
Most Americans don’t think about the electrical grid until the lights go out. But here are a few facts that change the picture fast: much of the U.S. grid was built over 70 years ago, it was never designed to withstand major solar storms or EMP events, and it is already struggling to meet demand before AI data centers begin doubling national power consumption. At the same time, the United States has some of the safest and most advanced nuclear technology in the world, yet political resistance and regulatory paralysis keep it sidelined.
In this episode of Connecting the Dots, the conversation digs into why America’s energy problem is not a lack of technology, but a failure of policy. Public Service Commissioner Randy Pinocci explains how outdated transmission infrastructure, slow permitting, and ideological opposition are preventing rapid grid upgrades that could dramatically increase capacity and reliability. He also outlines why advanced conductors, underground transmission, and decentralized generation are critical for resilience and national security.
Renowned nuclear engineer Dr. Robert Zubrin traces how excessive regulation crippled the U.S. nuclear industry despite decades of proven safety, and why modern nuclear power is cleaner, safer, and more efficient than the public has been led to believe. He explains how regulation, not science, has stalled innovation while other nations surge ahead.
Grid modernization expert Dr. Zongjie Wang brings the engineering reality, explaining how nuclear power and small modular reactors provide stable, predictable electricity that renewables cannot, and why they are essential for supporting AI data centers, industrial growth, and a reliable national grid.
This episode reframes energy policy as a national security issue, not just an economic one, and makes the case that without modern nuclear power and serious grid modernization, America’s technological future is far more fragile than most people realize.

NIGERIAN GENOCIDE (A SECOND LOOK)
5 days ago
5 days ago
In this episode of Connecting the Dots, Dan Happel takes a second look at the Nigerian genocide with returning guest Mike Arnold, whose firsthand investigations challenge the growing narrative that the mass killing of Christians in Nigeria is merely a resource or climate conflict.
Arnold has traveled to Nigeria 16 times since 2010, visiting slaughtered villages, displaced person camps, and frontline communities targeted by jihadist violence. He breaks down how coordinated propaganda, public relations firms, and political alliances are being used to deny the religious nature of the attacks and shield those responsible from accountability.
The conversation examines how genocide denial is laundered through official talking points, why Western governments continue working with compromised Nigerian officials, and how terror is being used to clear land, destabilize populations, and enable outside economic interests.
Arnold also explains the human cost of this crisis, particularly the millions of displaced children facing radicalization without intervention, and why education and exposure are the most powerful tools for breaking the cycle of violence.
This episode cuts through the spin and lays out what is actually happening on the ground, why the narrative matters, and why ignoring it has global consequences.

What challenges will 2026 bring for humanity? Are we up to the task, and how will we respond as Christians?
As 2026 unfolds, we face an unprecedented convergence of technological power, moral decay, and geopolitical instability driven by leaders who have abandoned constitutional and spiritual foundations. While the threat of destruction is real, the same era also offers an extraordinary opportunity for awakening through access to truth, history, and knowledge.
The future will be shaped by whether we choose fear and submission or courage, responsibility, and faithfulness to God in a moment that demands moral clarity

DIAGNOSING THE HUMAN CONDITION with Dr. Lee Merritt
Friday Jan 09, 2026
Friday Jan 09, 2026
Dr. Lee Merritt is just the right person to diagnose the human condition. Her initial response to me is that a frontal lobotomy or strong coffee enema might help clean out the intellectual constipation that keeps most people from thinking clearly.
All kidding aside; it's no joke that most people are so convinced they must make nice with everyone that they are willing to go along with just about any injustice or fruitcake idea to placate the social justice warriors and internationalists that populate the loony left or neocon right.
For fear of being labeled as an isolationist, racist, sexist, fascist, homophobe, or anti-Semite, they sheepishly submit to endless war, forced vaccinations, patdowns at airports, suspension of Habeas Corpus rights, accept Drag Queen story hour at the local public library, relinquish all rights of association, etcetera, etcetera. Where will this insanity end?
It will end when we finally decide that enough is enough and quit accepting abnormal as normal, and Marxist social justice as American constitutional justice. We have endured 125 years of organized effort to convert America from a land of peaceful coexistence, rule of law, economic opportunity and individualism to a land of imperial overreach, collectivism and government control from cradle to grave.

Hidden History and Lost Human Knowledge
Tuesday Jan 06, 2026
Tuesday Jan 06, 2026
Independent researcher Celeste Solum joins this episode as the conversation examines the growing evidence that humanity is being deliberately kept ignorant of both its true past and its present reality. Accepted historical, scientific, and political narratives increasingly fail to explain ancient structures, lost knowledge, and sudden gaps in human history that modern institutions insist are settled.
The discussion explores suppressed history, advanced ancient civilizations, and architectural achievements that defy conventional timelines. Megalithic structures, precision stonework, and sites like Göbekli Tepe raise serious questions about what previous societies understood and why that knowledge no longer fits the official story.
Particular attention is given to the possibility that ancient architecture was not merely symbolic or religious, but functional, designed to harness natural forces such as electromagnetism and resonance in ways modern society no longer acknowledges.
The conversation also connects these historical blind spots to present-day systems of control. Expanding biosecurity frameworks, medical martial law infrastructure, and opaque government research operate with little transparency, while information overload and psychological operations keep the public distracted and dependent.
At its core, this episode addresses responsibility. A society cut off from truth becomes easy to manage. Ignorance is not accidental. It is cultivated. And the greatest danger is not what we know is false, but what we don’t realize we don’t know.
This episode is not about proving a single theory. It is about breaking the mental cage of certainty and recognizing that:
Much of what we “know” may be incomplete or false
Power structures depend on ignorance
History, science, and spirituality are deeply connected
Truth requires humility, courage, and discernment

Medical Overreach and Forced Treatment in Modern Healthcare
Thursday Jan 01, 2026
Thursday Jan 01, 2026
This episode of Connecting the Dots exposes how medical authority, government agencies, and courts are increasingly being used against families who refuse mandated treatments or challenge institutional protocols. Guest host Mark Sutherland leads a deeply personal and investigative discussion revealing what many families are now experiencing as modern-day medical kidnapping.
What appears on the surface as isolated abuse is shown to be a systemic pattern operating under the cover of law, medical ethics, and emergency powers.
Across the country, families are discovering that informed consent is no longer guaranteed. Under emergency powers, court orders, and institutional protocols, medical decisions are being removed from parents and patients and placed into the hands of hospitals, agencies, and judges.
This conversation exposes how consent is overridden, how families are separated under medical authority, and how systems designed to protect are increasingly being used to control. From real-world cases to firsthand advocacy experience, this episode connects the legal, medical, and spiritual layers behind a problem many still don’t realize exists.
Guest: Margaret is a medical advocate who helps define and explain medical kidnapping from a clinical and parental rights perspective. She discusses how doctors initiate CPS involvement and how consent is overridden inside hospitals.
Guest: Laura manages a hospital hostage hotline and works with families whose loved ones are being held under forced medical protocols. She helped develop the “Do Not Consent” medical forms and explains how hospital systems deny consent and isolate patients.

When Law Becomes the Weapon and Justice Becomes Theater
Wednesday Dec 31, 2025
Wednesday Dec 31, 2025
In this powerful episode of Connecting the Dots, guest host Mark Sutherland leads a deep, unfiltered conversation exposing how corruption is protected, accountability is blocked, and citizen action is deliberately suppressed across America’s institutions.
Joining Mark are J.J. Humphrey, an Oklahoma State Representative who has confronted state agencies head-on, Doc Pete Chambers, a Texas gubernatorial candidate running on transparency, public service, and restoring lawful oversight, and Lewis Herms, a political candidate and media strategist focused on election integrity and citizen-driven oversight.
Together, they break down how media consolidation, controlled opposition, lawfare, and bureaucratic secrecy work together to shield fraud, silence whistleblowers, and prevent citizens from using constitutional tools like grand juries. The discussion exposes how corruption is not confined to Washington, D.C., but deeply embedded at the state and local level, where agencies routinely block public records, evade prosecution, and operate without consequence.
This episode goes beyond exposing the problem. It lays out why accountability has collapsed, how courts and prosecutors are being weaponized, and what lawful, citizen-driven solutions still exist for those willing to act.
If you want to understand:
Why massive fraud is rarely prosecuted
How media narratives discourage real civic action
Why grand juries are obstructed
Why courts and agencies resist transparency
And what it will take to restore accountability from the ground up
This is an episode you need to hear.

Monday Dec 29, 2025
This episode of Connecting the Dots is a first-hand investigative discussion centered on what the guests describe as the global climate governance apparatus, specifically through the lens of COP 30, the United Nations climate process, and its real-world impacts on freedom, agriculture, property rights, energy, and political accountability.
Guest host Mark Sutherland is joined by Debbie Bacculuppi and Andrew Muller, both of whom attended COP 30 and related global summits firsthand. What they describe is not a debate over climate science, but a tightly controlled political environment where dissenting voices are almost entirely absent.
Debbie, a Northern California cattle rancher, explains how climate policy directly threatens land ownership, water access, and food production and why farmers and ranchers feel the impact long before the rest of society does.
Andrew shares what it was like being one of only a handful of independent journalists among tens of thousands of attendees, documenting how narrative control, symbolism, and institutional power operate behind the scenes.
This conversation pulls back the curtain on:
Why only a tiny number of dissenting journalists are allowed inside COP events
How climate policy is being used to reshape agriculture, energy, housing, and sovereignty
What a controversial anti-Trump sculpture at COP reveals about approved political messaging
Why rising energy costs, housing unaffordability, and loss of property rights are deeply connected
How global institutions bypass voters while shaping domestic policy
This episode isn’t about abstract theory, it’s about what the guests personally witnessed, filmed, and experienced.
What really happens inside the world’s largest climate conferences and why are so few journalists allowed to question it?

Where the Constitution Ends: Government Abuse and the Collapse of Justice
Saturday Dec 27, 2025
Saturday Dec 27, 2025
In this episode of Connecting the Dots, guest host Mark Sutherland leads a wide-ranging and unfiltered discussion examining the moral collapse behind America’s legal system, courts, and governing institutions. The conversation explores how law has shifted from a tool meant to protect citizens into a weapon used against them, particularly in family courts, administrative courts, and politically sensitive cases.
The panel breaks down how judicial activism, unchecked bureaucracy, and institutional corruption have eroded due process and equal protection under the law. They discuss real-world consequences for families, parents, and individuals caught in systems that operate with little transparency, accountability, or constitutional restraint.
Throughout the episode, the discussion connects historical precedents, constitutional principles, and present-day cases to show how abuse of authority has become normalized—and why many Americans no longer trust the institutions meant to serve them. This episode challenges listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about power, justice, and what happens when morality is removed from the rule of law.
If you’ve ever wondered how America reached a point where courts can destroy lives while claiming to uphold justice, this episode pulls back the curtain and connects the dots.

Exposing the Globalist Mind Trap and the Technocratic War on Western Civilization
Wednesday Dec 24, 2025
Wednesday Dec 24, 2025
This episode is fundamentally about how modern populations are controlled without realizing it, and why most people fail to recognize the systems shaping their beliefs, behavior, and compliance.
The world is not drifting into global control, it is being steered there with precision. Understanding the psychological and spiritual mechanisms behind mass compliance is essential for breaking it. If citizens don’t wake up and reclaim their role in self-governance, unaccountable technocrats will do the governing for them.
Filmmaker and commentator Mark Sutherland steps behind the microphone with co-host David Sumrall to examine the global forces reshaping Western civilization. Together they dismantle the narratives pushed by international institutions, captured media, and propaganda machines that keep citizens distracted while technocratic control structures tighten around them.
Freedom dies first in the mind, then in the culture, and finally in the law.
Mark and David connect the dots between psychological conditioning, cultural erosion, global governance, and the spiritual battle underlying it all. They expose how mass compliance has become the ruling class’s greatest weapon and why reclaiming critical thought, moral conviction, and personal courage is essential if humanity hopes to push back against elite-driven transformation.
This episode is a direct challenge to passive spectatorship. It calls listeners to recognize the speed of the takeover, understand the mechanisms behind it, and step forward as engaged participants in the fight for truth, sovereignty, and genuine human freedom.

In this hard-hitting episode, guest host Mark Sutherland brings together two frontline political fighters from Oklahoma and Texas to confront the accelerating crises reshaping the American landscape. The conversation pulls no punches, exposing the coordinated pressures being applied on our institutions, our communities, and even our food supply, all part of a broader struggle over sovereignty in the 21st century.
Mark bridges UK and US activism, bringing on two candidates, JJ (Oklahoma) and Doc/Michael (Texas), for a raw conversation about:
Weaponized lawfare
State-vs-federal sovereignty
Immigration and demographic warfare
Revival of accountability inside the U.S. military
mRNA in livestock
Corporate capture of the food supply
Globalist attacks on property rights, farming, and national identity
Islamization of American cities
The spiritual warfare layer behind all of this
This episode has three layers happening at once:
Political ground game (state-level warfare)
Deep-state vs. constitutional order (lawfare, DOD, borders)
Civilizational struggle (values, demographics, sovereignty)
The guests outline how lawfare has replaced legitimate governance, weaponizing indictments, selective prosecution, and bureaucratic intimidation to silence political opponents. Rather than accept this as the new normal, states like Oklahoma and Texas are beginning to build multi-state legal alliances, forming the backbone of a new constitutional resistance.
Beyond the courtroom, the episode dives into the demographic battles unfolding across America. The rapid transformation of cities through unmanaged migration is no longer a future concern, it’s visible now in formerly stable communities from Michigan to Texas. As Mark notes, these changes aren’t random; they follow well-established patterns seen in Europe and the UK, reflecting a global strategy rather than isolated local events.
The guests also expose the biomedical and agricultural front of this struggle: unlawful military vaccine mandates that caused widespread injury, mRNA technology quietly entering the livestock supply, and corporate cartels tightening their grip on beef, pork, and poultry. Food, like energy and medicine, is becoming another lever of control and independent farmers are being squeezed out to make room for global “sustainability” regimes.
Guest: JJ: Candidate from Oklahoma. Former law enforcement background; active in exposing public corruption. Leading efforts to coordinate multi-state legal pushback against lawfare, selective prosecution, and constitutional violations. Known for bold state sovereignty initiatives, including investigations into unlawful federal mandates.
Guest: Doc / Michael: Texas Candidate & Military Whistleblower. Former military officer and medical professional who publicly exposed unlawful vaccine mandates inside the U.S. military. Testified in the high-profile SEALs v. DOD case, which helped overturn mandate policies for religious exemptions. Provides firsthand data on neurological injuries linked to forced vaccination programs and ongoing military accountability efforts.

WILDFIRE MANAGEMENT & WILD HORSES
Thursday Dec 18, 2025
Thursday Dec 18, 2025
Common sense doesn't seem to have much impact on modern wildfire policies, and even less when preordained, and sometimes radical, environmental agendas are imbedded in Federal Agency rulemaking. I saw that firsthand when serving as a County Commissioner and also as a member of the Southwest Montana BLM Resource Advisory Committee.
Our input was often limited to rubber stamping preordained federal policies or being entirely shut out of the process, which happened to me quite a bit when I spoke out. Local officials were there mostly for window dressing and to provide the perception of local input.
What passed as legitimate land use policies before the BLM and US Forest Service management staffing were coopted by radical environmental NGOs, have turned many of our national forests into bug infested, mono-culture, poorly managed, and underutilized tinder boxes, waiting for the next catastrophic fire event.
I was asked to do a podcast on the subject of wild horses a while back, but did not feel comfortable doing that because so much of the subject has been politicized by both sides of the aisle. I knew more than a few folks that would become nearly unhinged when the subject came up, and I did'nt feel personally knowledgable enough, or know anyone of sufficient scientific and historical expertise to properly address the subject.
That is until I had the opportunity to meet wild horse expert, William E. Simpson II. Bill has an amazing grasp of the whole arena, including forestry, land use, understory stewardship and historically accurate equine biology. And he's a real cowboy, not a tree hugger! After about 15 minutes on the topic of wild horses, I felt I had finally met somone that checked all the boxes needed to give a full and complete picture of what constitutes a truly wild horse, and why their future should matter to most Americans.
It turns out that wild horses are the best specie at understory grazing in extremely rugged, predator filled, back country, fire prone, wilderness areas.
Bill Simpson is committed to the survival of the North American wild horses that migrated across the Bering Strait long before the Spanish Conquistadors brought domesticated breeds to the Americas.
These wild horses are markedly different than domesticated species and are uniquely adapted to survival in the harshest climates, surrounded by predators, and thriving on forage that would starve a lesser species.
They represent a unique opportunity to reduce wildfire in remote back country areas where roads don't exist and where these tough little horses with hooves of flint thrive on limited resources in areas totally unsuited for domestic livestock grazing.
It's time to try something different and tell the 3 letter agencies to take their stewardship responsibilities seriously without selling out to environmental special interests promoting the flavor of the day on everything from alternative energy to natural resource development.
It's time to hear the wild horse story!

NIGERIAN GENOCIDE (FACTS vs FICTION)
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Monday Dec 15, 2025
Although there are some who question reports of Nigerian Christian genocide, we must hear first person eyewitness accounts to learn the truth.
Is Nigerian genocide fact or fiction? Join Dan and his guest Mike Arnold for a first person account of the events that led to Mike Arnold's cries to the civilized world to stop this persecutuion before it destroys millions of Nigerian and other African Christians that are sytematically being forced into accepting Islam by corrupt political leaders.
The Nigerian genocide against Christians is very real; affecting the lives of all those caught in the path of political forces intent on transforming all of Africa into a uniform Islamic theocracy. Without intervention, it is estimated some 2 million currently displaced (kidnapped?) Nigerian youth will be radicalized by 2030.
Africa Arise programs are reaching out to the afflicted populations, currently serving some 600 child survivors with a free, high-quality, loving education – and stand ready to reach many more given the opportunity.
The most resource rich continent in the world has a long history of subjugation and colonialization by the old European Powers, and more recently by the CCP attempting to gain natural resource dominance through their Belt and Road initiative. Erstwhile efforts by the radical green lobby to limit the development of affordable energy that would allow Africans to enjoy economic development have kept much of the continent desperately poor. Meanwhile, despotic political factions treat Black Christians as little more than cannon fodder in an autocratic system that relies on constant strife and war to maintain control.
It's time to stop this madness and end the tribalism and theocracy that continues to destabilize the entire continent.

The Rise of an AI-enabled Global Technocratic Dictatorship.
Wednesday Dec 10, 2025
Wednesday Dec 10, 2025
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a tool we use, it’s becoming the system we all live inside. In this explosive episode of Connecting the Dots, Dan Happel welcomes back media ecologist and technocracy expert James Martinez to break down how AI, quantum computing, surveillance, and global power structures are rapidly reshaping human life.
James explains in plain terms how governments and corporations are building digital profiles of every person, why quantum computers could end financial privacy, and how new technologies are being used to influence thought, behavior, and even culture itself. He exposes why world leaders are pushing massive AI data centers without the energy, water, or safeguards to support them and what that means for ordinary people everywhere.
This conversation goes far beyond technology. It uncovers the psychological, economic, legal, and spiritual implications of a world run by algorithms instead of accountable human beings. If you’ve ever wondered where AI is truly heading and what it could mean for your freedom, identity, and future, this episode delivers answers you won’t hear anywhere else.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How AI and quantum computing are changing global power behind the scenes.
Why governments are building digital “avatars” of every citizen.
How surveillance, biometrics, and social data tie into a worldwide control grid.
Why many political leaders have no idea what they’re authorizing.
How technology is being used to shape human perception and behavior.
What individuals must understand to stay free in an AI-driven world.
This is not sci-fi, it’s happening now.

The Electrical Grid, AI Data Centers & EMP Shielding
Monday Dec 08, 2025
Monday Dec 08, 2025
Most Americans flip on a light switch without ever thinking about how fragile our electrical grid actually is. In this episode of Connecting the Dots, Dan Happel and Montana Public Service Commissioner Randal Pinocci break down, in simple, everyday language, how the U.S. power grid works, why it’s failing, and what every state must do to keep the lights on in the years ahead.
You don’t need an engineering degree for this one. Randy explains the grid in plain language how electricity moves across the state, why old power lines are failing, and how fast-growing AI data centers could double or triple electric bills unless we make smarter choices.
One of the biggest questions answered in this episode is why utilities across the country keep reinstalling old, 1940s-era infrastructure instead of upgrading to modern carbon-fiber technology that is stronger, safer, fire-resistant, EMP-resistant, and far more efficient. The long-term savings for ratepayers would be enormous.
This episode removes the mystery around how power gets to your home, why rates keep climbing, and what could happen if the grid faces a major EMP event, blackout, or surge in AI-driven energy consumption. Listeners will come away with a clearer understanding of how vulnerable the grid is and how fixable the problems actually are.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why outdated steel-core power lines are still being installed nationwide.
How carbon-fiber lines can prevent fires, cut energy loss, and protect against EMP events.
Why utilities resist modernization even when it saves ratepayers money.
What would happen to any state during a major EMP, natural or man-made.
Why transformers are one of the biggest grid vulnerabilities.
How AI data centers could overwhelm local grids unless smarter policies are adopted.
Why nuclear energy has become safer, cheaper, and meltdown-proof and why America is behind.
Why cold-weather states (like Montana) can carry more load due to ambient cooling.
What citizens in every state should be demanding from their Public Service Commissions.
Randy also shares surprising inside stories about utility decisions, political roadblocks, and new technology that could dramatically strengthen America’s grid if the nation had the courage to adopt it.
Whether you’re in Montana, Texas, Florida, California, or anywhere in between, this episode will help you understand the grid in a way that no news clip or political talking point ever could.
A practical, eye-opening conversation about the future of American power and what must happen to keep the lights on for every state in the nation.

HOW 9/11 CHANGED THE WORLD
Sunday Nov 30, 2025
Sunday Nov 30, 2025
Even for those who consider themselves well-versed in 9/11 truth, this episode delivers evidence and context that rarely surface in mainstream or even alternative discussions. We walk through what the University of Alaska’s 4-year forensic model actually proves about Building 7, expose multiple instances of media foreknowledge far beyond the famous BBC clip, and highlight the overlooked fireproofing and elevator “upgrades” that gave unprecedented access to the core of the towers in the weeks before the attacks. You’ll also see how thermitic signatures match collapse footage with chilling precision.
More importantly, we connect these findings to the larger geopolitical machinery that used 9/11 to rewire America into a surveillance state while launching endless foreign conflicts under the banner of “defending democracy.” We explore the war trigger system, the legal push for a special grand jury investigation, and why public opinion has finally flipped against the official story.
If you think you know the full 9/11 story, this episode will show you the missing links that tie the engineering evidence, the political motives, the intelligence anomalies, and the 24-year aftermath into one coherent picture.
America, we have seen a most disturbing change in American culture since 9/11 and that is not by accident. Wake Up and realize that we are being conditioned to trade our basic freedoms for safety in a never ending cycle of false flag Hegelian Dialectic conditioning events designed to turn us into brainless and gutless sheep.
Moreover; this was reinforced through Covid 19 and other vaccine programs that turned once proud Americans into terrified victims and government subjects. We are losing our ability to resist and to say NO to the most outrageous government overreach. As Benjamin Franklin famously said “those who would trade freedom for a little temporary safety deserve neither freedom nor safety”
Until we demand answers to the events of 9/11 and the subsequent loss of personal freedoms that came after the passage of the Patriot Act and the War on Terror, we can never recapture the rights and liberties guaranteed to all Americans under our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

COMMON TALK & COMMON SENSE WITH A COMMON LAWYER
Friday Nov 28, 2025
Friday Nov 28, 2025
Brent has a way of speaking common sense and undeniable truth in terms that knuckle dragging hillbillies like me find hysterically entertaining. To say that I enjoy these down home conversations is a gross understatement.
So, what will we be talking about during our copious manufacture of intellectual fertilizer?
Just about anything and everything that we find discussion worthy, including our childhoods in rural America in a time when we could afford to be uninformed, naive and innocent.
Sometimes it is much better to say very little when there is very little to say that isn't negative. It's been that kind of week, and I'm ready for some really good news for a change.
I can think of no-one better to convey a message of hope and humor than Brent. The fact that Brent does a little Christian ministry on the side is another good reason for him to join us for a little clear thinking and a common sense message about heaven and hell in a world seemingly hell bent.
Common sense, common law and common talk were always integral with the American system of justice and government of, by, and for the people. That's how we functioned for the first several hundred years and is why we must recapture those standards if we are to survive as a constitutional republic.
the ancient oath to defend against enemies “foreign and domestic,” traced back over 1,200 years
the shocking truth that America was never meant to be a “republic” at all
the real system our founders intended — a common law nation centered on juries and local authority
why twelve-man juries, not politicians or judges, were designed to be the final arbiters of truth
how administrative and civil-law courts quietly replaced the law of the land with the “law of the city”
how the Patriot Act and 20 years of federal overreach accelerated the destruction of due process
and the forgotten fact that America actually has two constitutions — one written and one inherited through common law tradition

In this special solo episode, Dan Happel breaks down the unfolding economic crisis that global elites have engineered for decades... an impending collapse designed to strip Americans of their freedom, their property, and their financial sovereignty. With his scheduled guest cancelled, Dan takes the opportunity to deliver one of the most important deep dives of the year.
Drawing from The Great Taking and the insights of financial analyst David Webb, Dan exposes the legal frameworks and banking mechanisms that now allow institutions to seize customer assets, redefine ownership, weaponize derivatives, and quietly prepare for a coordinated “solvent wind-down” of the global financial system. These are laws already on the books.
From the explosion of derivatives and securitization to repo market spikes, failing banks, and property tax traps, Dan connects the dots showing how the average American has been set up for a fall while a tiny elite consolidates control. This episode also explores the role of the CIA, international intelligence agencies, and compartmentalization in shaping a world where most people only see a single pixel of a massive, engineered picture.
But Dan doesn’t stop at the mechanics of collapse, he confronts the spiritual dimension behind this unfolding battle between good and evil, reminding listeners that the American remnant must hold firm, act wisely, and prepare morally, financially, and spiritually.

POPULATION CONTROL 101
Monday Nov 17, 2025
Monday Nov 17, 2025
Undertakers and embalmers are coming forward in unprecedented numbers with personal observations and physical evidence of deadly blood clots and unusual latex like substances in vascular systems in a growing number of deceased recipients of Covid vaccines.
Moreover, there was a multi year study conducted in the UK showing an unusual increase in cardio vascular deaths in otherwise healthy adults between 25 and 55 identified as thrice Covid-19 vaccinated people. If these vaccines are really as safe and effective as professed by the medical establishment, why are autopsy results of vaccine related deaths being so consistently swept under the rug by the establishment while documented evidence like the UK Study are being ignored?
As we have shown in previous podcasts, a steady diet of fear has converted a society of tough, independent, critical thinkers into a flock of mindless followers. Our Connecting the Dots podcast believes that unchecked fear is the real virus destroying human society. Only truth and accountability will cure this terrible sickness and save humanity from enslavement by greedy and autocratic men hell-bent on destroying most of humanity; while transhumanizing the rest into automatons meant to serve them.
Guest: Major Tom Haviland USAF (ret) is a Freelance Data Analyst. Until 2022 he worked as a defense contractor for 16 years after spending 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, retiring at the rank of Major. He spent his entire career as an Electrical Engineer and Data Analyst. Haviland has a Bachelor's degree from Ohio State University in Mathematics. He also earned a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Louisiana Tech University, and a Master's degree in Computer Resources and Information Management from Webster University in St. Louis, MO.
Haviland was forced to resign from his position as a defense contractor for refusing to take the covid vaccine as required as a condition of employment by the U.S. government. He became a concerned U.S. citizen who wanted to help discover the truth concerning the magnitude of this "white fibrous clots" that seem to have a connection with Covid19 and the model/RNA "vaccines" that were approved with unprecidented testing waivers of safety and efficacy.
Haviland decided to reach out to funeral homes and embalmers around the world and has put together a survey and questionnaire that has provided invaluable information in linking these medical anomalies to Covid19 and the vaccine programs. He is currently expanding his research coverage to much larger number of embalmers, asking them to share their observations concerning the timing and magnitude of these clots in order to help scientists study and eventually solve this problem via the use of his scientific and factual survey.
As an experienced Data Analyst, he is offering his services free of charge to gather this important data so scientists can then use that data to help understand the "white fibrous clot" anomaly.

Rewilding as a Weapon: Wolves, Water, and the War on Rural America
Thursday Nov 13, 2025

This episode examines how rewilding policies, wolf expansion, water rights manipulation, dam destruction, and UN climate governance intersect into one unified global agenda. Guest host Mark Sutherland speaks first with California rancher and activist Debbie Bacigalupi, whose firsthand experiences reveal how environmental policy is being weaponized to eliminate rural America. Later, Alex Newman joins to expose how the UN COP climate summits serve as a global mechanism for wealth extraction, regulatory control, and the restructuring of Western life under technocratic climate governance.
Together, the episode “connects the dots” between local crises (wolves killing cattle, water grabs, full basin management, biodiversity regulations) and the larger international machinery driving these changes: Agenda 2030, the Paris Agreement, global climate finance, and bureaucratic systems designed to centralize power while masking their true intent behind ecological language.
