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?

The Truth About Lee Harvey Oswald and the JFK Assassination

Judith Vary Baker: The Truth About Lee Harvey Oswald and the JFK Assassination
Judith Vary Baker, author of Me & Lee, shares her firsthand account of working alongside Lee Harvey Oswald in New Orleans during a covert CIA cancer bioweapon program in the summer of 1963. Recruited as a teenage cancer research prodigy, Baker was brought into a secret operation involving turbo cancer pathogens developed from monkey viruses, with the stated goal of eliminating Fidel Castro.
In this interview with Dan Happel, she describes how Oswald was deeply embedded in U.S. intelligence and how he became aware he was being framed for President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. She asserts that Oswald was a CIA asset, not a rogue assassin, and that he attempted to prevent the plot against Kennedy. The program she was involved in linked government agencies, medical researchers, and organized crime—painting a broader picture of collusion, cover-ups, and operational secrecy.
Topics covered in this episode:
Was Lee Harvey Oswald a CIA asset?
What was the turbo cancer project in New Orleans in 1963?
Connections between the CIA, organized crime, and the JFK assassination
The role of bioweapons in Cold War intelligence operations
How Oswald was linked to the Marcello crime family and intelligence operations
Medical experimentation, bio-warfare, and their relevance to modern health events
Judith also raises concerns about the long-term consequences of these bioweapon programs, particularly the rise of aggressive cancers in the modern era. Recently declassified documents support many of her claims, prompting renewed scrutiny of the Warren Commission’s findings and the official narrative.
This episode is part of a growing body of testimony and evidence that challenges the accepted history of November 22, 1963.

THE ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCES OF TRIBALISM
Sunday Mar 16, 2025
Sunday Mar 16, 2025
https://danhappel.com/the-economic-consequences-of-tribalism/Racism, in the form of tribalism, is alive and well around the world; the most obvious victims being White Farmers in South Africa who are now suffering the highest murder rate in the civilized world.
South Africa is the canary in the coal mine for all advanced industrial economies, especially the United States of America. With the takeover of the South African leadership by the communist controlled ANC government starting in 1994, the slide into genocide and despotism began under the leadership of ANC terrorist and bomb maker Nelson Mandela and has only accelerated with time.
Although the 1994 South African Constitution originally protected the rights of all citizens regardless of race, it has devolved into the typical communist tyranny of mob rule, and the tribalist black mob happens to want to destroy everything white that is technologically, agriculturally, and industrially rooted in the South African economy.
As is typical of Marxist/communist ideologues, there is absolutely no understanding of simple economics and life under the new Black ANC government understands only one form of economics; PLUNDER,.......if murder is required.......that too.
That might explain how South Africa fell from one of the wealthiest nations to third world economic status in fewer than 30 years under ANC leadership.
As the basic infrastructure of South Africa is being cannibalized under ANC leadership, very anti-white racist propaganda is used as cover for corrupt leadership by blaming white farmer success for every failed communist economic program.
Moreover; as South Africa descends into utter chaos, white farmers have become increasingly the target of overtly racist laws that are meant to end several hundred years of private property ownership and some of the most productive agriculture in the world.
Boers (white SA farmers) are now the most endangered species on the planet, and have a murder rate that is higher than anywhere outside the killing fields in Ukraine. and Gaza.
The brutality and sadistic methods used against white farmers and their families to torture them for hours or sometimes days before death are beyond description and go all but unreported in the corporate U.S. and world media.

Alex Jones ~ Capitulation & Betrayal?
Monday Jan 27, 2025
Monday Jan 27, 2025
https://danhappel.com/trust-but-verify/
I just finished his latest excellent book "The great Awakening" finding it much easier to read Alex than listen to him. In the book Alex referred to a $1.4 Billion Dollar lawsuit and judgement that had been levied against him over statements he made in the aftermath of Sandy Hook and the Court's refusal to allow him a reasonable chance to defend himself.
I remembered the video expose' he provided at the time about the Sandy Hook shootings and the many strange inconsistencies that were aired by him and wondered how such an incredibly large judgement could be levied against an individual when his video information seemed to be so conclusive and insightful.
That's when I heard about an Attorney named R. Wyn Young that discovered gross incompetence and questionable intent on the part of Alex Jones and the several well respected Attorneys representing him.
In my attempt to "Connect the Dots for all my listeners, I contacted Wyn Young and asked him to join us to share his findings and discuss the real story behind the Sandy Hook School Shootings, the $1.4 Billion Dollar judgement against Alex Jones/InfoWars and why it may have an enormous impact on our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights.
That's in keeping with our New Years Resolution to trust but verify all sources of information and vet public trust. TRUST BUT VERIFY!

https://danhappel.com/the-truman-show-with-dr-lee-merritt-2/Is our world just an elaborate illusion? Dr. Lee Merritt joins us to explore how modern society increasingly resembles the simulated reality of The Matrix films.
This podcast is a continuation of a November 7, 2023 program we did with Dr. Lee Merritt where we did a parody on the movie The Truman Show and how it sometimes it feels like we are living on a movie set where everything is a mirror image of reality and upside down.
Can we escape this inverted world where good is called evil and lies masquerade as truth?
America has been living The Truman Show for decades as culture, economy, and morality collapses around us. Wakeup America!

ELECTION FORENSICS
Wednesday Jan 31, 2024
Wednesday Jan 31, 2024
https://danhappel.com/election-forensics-restore-integrity-paper-ballots/
Election fraud is certainly nothing new! As long as there have been elections, unscrupulous politicians have been figuring out ways to manipulate the vote in their favor, much to the chagrin of their political opponents and the many voters seeking fair and open elections.
Before computers the opportunity to rig elections was there but was limited in scale and was easier to spot by alert election officials.
Clearly, the adaptation of electronic vote tabulation and the nearly universal acceptance of computer programs to manage all records and assure accuracy, has thrown a new wrinkle into election integrity, but that is only part of the story.

Guest: Jason FykIn 2010 Jason Fyk ventured into the business world of social media. Realizing the advertising potential of the platform, Fyk created a series of popular pages on Facebook which regularly published content related to pop culture and comedy. At the height of Fyk’s success, his pages held over 38 million followers and brought in over $300,000 per month from brand partnerships and advertising. Overnight, on October 19, 2016, Facebook pulled the plug – taking 14 million fans away by unpublishing 6 of his pages. Fyk was told that Facebook would not restore his pages.

Restoring Intellectual Freedom
Thursday Nov 30, 2023
Thursday Nov 30, 2023
https://danhappel.com/american-culture-wokeness-in-higher-education/Reasserting our academic excellence will not be easy, but we have so many tools available today if we choose to use them. Parents have to choose a different path for their children than business as usual and trust in a system that is clearly failing to meet the academic standards of a modern free market advanced society.
Our future as a sovereign republic depends on us to set new standards for our children and grandchildren in a world of uniformity and groupthink!
Are we committed to the task and willing to risk being labeled as domestic extremists by the FBI for protecting our children from Marxist ideologues? I certainly hope so!
American Universities have been transformed from institutions of classical liberal education to become incubators of Marxist indoctrination through a very deliberate process of infiltration and gradualism.
Subsequently, universities have become hotbeds of radical societal transformation that place academic standards secondary to social justice, global citizenship, sustainability, and environmental justice groupthink. Critical thinkers need not apply here!
The “fundamental transformation” of education did not stop at the university level. Modern K-12 public education emphasizes Soviet style work skills training and consensus, not intellectual excellence and personal achievement.
Guest: Peter W. Wood has served as president of the National Association of Scholars (NAS) since 2009. He was associate professor of anthropology at Boston University, where he also served as the president’s chief of staff; and he served as provost of The King’s College (NYC).

RETURNING GOVERNMENT TO WE THE PEOPLE
Saturday Nov 04, 2023
Saturday Nov 04, 2023
https://danhappel.com/tools-to-establish-and-maintain-limited-self-government/Our Founding Fathers championed the power of individuals and gave us the tools to establish and maintain limited self-government. It's time to take them out, dust them off, and invest the time, sweat and blood needed to restore limited self government for the future of America. If we fail to act, all we have to lose is life, liberty and happiness for our children, grandchildren and the rest of humanity.
Americans have amazing power as individual citizens and working together with local governments we have the power to return control back to "We the People". It is our responsibility to end constitutional ignorance with knowledge and empowerment through education.
The reason that we have lost so many of the rights guaranteed under our Constitution is not from a faulty document, it is from the failure of generations of elected officials to honor their oath of office, and an increasingly demanding, ignorant and disconnected electorate that fails to hold elected representatives personally responsible for countless bad decisions and for reprehensible oversight of the public trust.

Using fear and intimidation through their controlled press, a false reality has been supplanted into the American psyche that turns friends into enemies, brother against brother, races, sexes and religions into mortal enemies, and nation against nation; all trying to destroy one another at the behest of the most diabolical propaganda campaign in human history.
America and the world are being drawn into a war that could devastate humanity and create permanent chaos. For what purpose?

https://danhappel.com/social-emotional-learning-and-transformational-education-communism-in-american-education/~ Cancel culture is alive and well in 2023 in our entire society, but nowhere is it more damaging than in our K-12 schools. A Frankfurt School/Marxist program called "transformational education" has been woven into the fabric of American K-12 public education and has metastasized into private Christian school curriculums.
Although this plan has been in play for 90+ years, the communist infiltration of our schools was so subtle at first that the effects are only now being fully realized by awakened and concerned parents. Social Emotional Learning, WOKE racial profiling, training students as social/environmental activists have replaced classical liberal education and our children are paying the price.
In 60 years, the U.S. has fallen from the best educated to one of the worst educated student populations in the developed world. Our scholastic test scores are in free-fall, with nearly 50% of inner city High School graduates considered "functionally illiterate" despite record spending. If that isn't bad enough, many private Christian Schools are jumping on board in the naive belief that government bureaucrats and Marxist trained Teachers Unions want only the best for our children. WRONG!
