WHEN THE NEXT SHOE DROPS
Friday Oct 03, 2025
Friday Oct 03, 2025
As we wonder when the next shoe will drop, we had best realize that this time the shoe might actually be a boot and it might drop right in the middle of our face, just like O'Brien described in the classic novel 1984.
The world we thought we knew has been fundamentally transforming before our eyes until it represents the exact opposite of the traditional American society based in faith, family, fairness, fundamental truths, and rule of law.
In the newspeak world of doublethink, being WOKE is the antithesis of being awake, and the new meaning of being liberal is being opposed to anything that represents common sense or the traditional values that were developed over several millenniums. To them, freedom equates to facism, and collectivism equates to freedom. This is what George Orwell called doublethink.
We must understand and resist the destructive nature of this Godless culture of self righteous do-gooders that are convinced that none of us deserve to live unless we accept their narcessitic cult of cultural Marxism that hates anyone who refuses to accept their suicidal and destructive plan for humanity.
To attempt to meet halfway with these sociopaths would result in national suicide.
There is no such thing as negotiation when dealing with Marxists. Life to them is a zero sum game where compromise is merely a negotiating tactic on the road to eventually getting their way..........100% THEIR WAY.
The next shoe is about to drop and we would be well advised to react before it does. Our children and grandchildren will shoulder a much more onerous responsibility and live in a much oppresive world should we fail. It is up to us!

PAINFUL TRUTH & THE POWER OF DISCERNMENT
Wednesday Jul 30, 2025
Wednesday Jul 30, 2025
https://danhappel.com/seek-truth-hold-traitors-accountable/Americans must become seekers of truth and be willing to punish those accountable for treasonous acts.The Weaponization of Justice, the War on Parents, and the Globalist EndgameGuests: Trent Leisy & Dr. Henry MakowAs America teeters on the edge of constitutional collapse, this episode of Connecting the Dots exposes the full scope of lawfare, deception, and spiritual subversion being waged by globalist elites against the American people.
Trent Leisy, COO of the American Rights Alliance, joins to lay bare the weaponization of the legal system against patriots, parents, whistleblowers, and truth-tellers. From the unjust targeting of Tina Peters and James O’Keefe to the heartbreaking case of Shana Gabriel, who was criminally charged for protecting her own child from radical gender ideology, Americans are witnessing a blatant assault on natural rights and due process.
In the second half, Dr. Henry Makow, historian and author of the Illuminati book series, exposes the deeply embedded networks of power—Zionism, Freemasonry, and technocratic globalism—that are dismantling Western civilization from within. He traces a coordinated campaign to erase God, destroy the family, and enslave humanity through endless wars, propaganda, and engineered crises.
The global elites do not fear elections, they fear an informed and morally grounded citizenry. The hour is late, and silence is complicity.
Key Topics:
Lawfare and political persecution in the United States
Parental rights vs. state-driven gender ideology
Election integrity and the persecution of whistleblowers
The spiritual roots of the globalist agenda
Controlled opposition, QAnon, and the danger of passive patriotism
Zionism, Chabad influence, and the war against national sovereignty
The moral and constitutional imperative of citizen action
Books:
Illuminati: The Cult that Hijacked the World – by Dr. Henry Makow
A foundational book that claims to expose the hidden hand of Freemasonry, Zionism, and secret societies behind global control mechanisms.
Illuminati Volume II: Deceit and Seduction – by Dr. Henry Makow
Follow-up to the first volume, expanding on globalist tactics and psychological manipulation.
Satanic Protocols of Zion: Updated & Annotated Version – Referenced but not clearly titled
Makow refers to an updated version of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, claiming it outlines current strategies of elite domination. (Controversial and often criticized; Makow presents it as predictive literature.)

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Have you ever heard of a raging wildfire that leaves all of the surrounding trees green and standing while homes, including those with metal siding and roofs, are vaporized with nothing left but ash?
Guest: Michelle Melendez has been a freedom fighter since 2020. She became a fitness and wellness expert in 1996, and is the award-winning author of the best-selling book “End Dieting Hell.”

A RETURN TO REASON?
Tuesday Dec 10, 2024
Tuesday Dec 10, 2024
https://danhappel.com/a-return-to-reason/The 2024 Presidential election provides a new opportunity to end control of government by globalists and the Military Industrial Complex.
The International/National Military Industrial Complex in collusion with the CIA, NSA, NIH, UN, WEF, WHO and various agencies and special interests ad infinitum, are working overtime to achieve their goal of full spectrum dominance and control of the human race through any means at their disposal.
The constant attacks on traditional American institutions of: marriage, family, society, religion and patriotism might seem coincidental to some; especially those suffering from cognitive dissonance and inability to Connect the Dots.

IS CHINA A THREAT TO AMERICA?
Sunday Oct 20, 2024
Sunday Oct 20, 2024
https://danhappel.com/is-china-a-threat-to-america/Is China and the CCP totalitarian system the number one threat to America, or does it also threaten the entire world? According to General Secretary Xi Jinping and CCP leadership, the United States is the number one enemy of the Peoples Republic of China.
This despite the fact that transfer of our manufacturing base and American technology (to the detriment of American workers) is the main reason that communist China has evolved from a backward third world agrarian society to the fastest growing first world industrial economy on Earth.
Should we fear the motives of the Chinese people, or just the CCP leadership that has designs to control industry, political structure, the economy, and all the natural resources of the entire world?

REVISITING AN AMERICAN EPIPHANY
Tuesday May 21, 2024
Tuesday May 21, 2024
https://danhappel.com/revisiting-an-american-epiphany/The Kennedy assassination was an egregious display of deep state power and unlimited control by oligarchs and three letter Federal Agencies.
There is that seminal moment in every thinking persons life where something sold to us as absolute truth strains the bounds of credibility enough to cause one to wonder what else we are being fed as fact is an outright lie.
Many people refer to that seminal moment as an epiphany. That epiphany occurred for me on November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Saturday Feb 17, 2024
Saturday Feb 17, 2024
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!

STOPPING THE NWO
Sunday Dec 10, 2023
Sunday Dec 10, 2023
https://danhappel.com/stop-globalism-and-the-nwo/To stop globalism and the NWO should be the number one priority of freedom loving individuals worldwide, especially Americans.
American writer/political philosopher George Santayana wrote “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”. This quote seems particularly poignant today as we examine the state of our nation and international affairs.
Many in the highest offices of American leadership are demanding unbridled censorship of opinions that differ from the tripe peddled by institutional government and media propagandists, with some openly talking about the need for imprisonment and re-education camps for millions of dissenters that refuse to conform to NWO dictums.

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).
He is editor-in-chief of the journal Academic Questions. In 2019, he received the Jeane Kirkpatrick Prize for contributions to academic freedom.
He is editor-in-chief of NAS’s quarterly, Academic Questions, and writes frequently for Spectator World, The New Criterion, The Claremont Review of Books, American Greatness, and other publications. His topics include intellectual freedom, wokeness in higher education, the DEI movement, climate hysteria, and American culture.

Who Controls Directed Energy Weapons? (Dews)
Friday Nov 17, 2023
Friday Nov 17, 2023
https://danhappel.com/dew-directed-energy-weapons/ ~ STAR WARS TECHNOLOGY - is it our greatest threat? Lazer weapons are so advanced that nothing on earth is safe should these weapons be turned against us.
Are DEWs now being used as a political weapon to advance the Agenda 21/2030 climate change narrative and force people to abandon rural settings?
These are questions that must be considered when looking at the bigger picture and connecting the dots back to: problem, reaction, solution Hegelian thinking that seems to follow current events like a slime trail.
A directed-energy weapon (DEW) is a weapon system that damages its target with highly focused energy without a solid projectile including: lasers, microwaves, particle beams, plasma and sound beams.
Potential applications of this technology include weapons that target buildings, missiles, personnel, vehicles, electronics or optical devices.
Until recently there was little concern over DEWs being used against civilian targets. However, recent wildfire events in Northern California and the Maui Conflagration have left tell-tale signs of the use of directed energy weapons.
Although seldom acknowledged, 4 and 5G technology developed by the U.S. Military was originally intended as a weapon for crowd control, while electromagnetic weapons systems using microwave technology capable of frying the human brain have been fully functional for more than 50 years.
Guest: Barrie Trower - Humanity At The BrinkHe trained at the Governments Microwave Warfare establishment in 60's and worked with the Royal Navy underwater bomb disposal unit, which used microwaves to neutralize explosive weapons systems. In the 70's Trower helped de-brief Russian spies trained in microwave warfare.
His first degree is in Physics (specializing in microwaves), with a second research degree and a teaching diploma in human physiology. Dr. Trower taught advanced physics and mathematics at South Dartmoor College.
Guest: Celeste Solum – is an author, and former FEMA employee and whistleblower. Celeste has studied Synthetic Biology in great detail understands the plans for global technocracy, the end to national sovereignty and the Invisible Army that you can't see, that is part of this plan to control humanity.

THE RISE AND FALL OF EMPIRES ~ USA
Monday Nov 13, 2023
Monday Nov 13, 2023
https://danhappel.com/founding-fathers-avoiding-international-military-commitments/ Our Founding Fathers were adamant about avoiding international military commitments on behalf of foreign nations. Why did we fail to listen to them?
The word “empire” projects an image of a colossus built by military conquest that harkens back to the time of the Caesars and Alexander the Great. There have been many empires in the history of humanity.
A common thread with empire is a quest for great power and unwillingness to hold back on projecting that power once acquired.
We were to prosper as a nation of free men unchained from foreign entanglements, and what the founders feared most; unbacked fiat money controlled by private Central Bankers.
Guest: Brad Miller – is a West Point graduate and former lieutenant colonel in the United States Army. He served as a battalion commander at the time the Dept of Defense covid-19 vaccine mandate went into effect.
He was relieved of command for refusing to comply with the mandate. He subsequently resigned from the Army with just over 19 years of active service.
Brad is an outspoken voice for truth and freedom and encourages others to join the cause for liberty and is happy to discuss the current state of the military in terms of readiness. Brad will discuss the aftermath of the vaccine mandate and the “moral injury” as well as physical injuries that have resulted.
He will also talk about what he thinks in terms of military preparation for the conflict in the Middle East currently heating up and will discuss the intangibles such as the low state of morale across the force.
Guest: Major General Joe Arbuckle (ret) ~ MG Arbuckle entered the Army as a private in 1969. Following basic training ,went through advanced individual training and Officer Candidate School as a combat engineer. He deployed to Viet Nam as an infantry 1st lieutenant, serving as an infantry advisor Team 22 with the South Vietnamese Army.
Thereafter, he attended ordnance missile system training and spent most of his career in the missile field. During his last 10 years on duty he served as an Army strategist full or part-time, focusing on national level strategy and logistics at the highest levels.
Gen Arbuckle commanded units in CONUS and overseas at every rank from Lieutenant to Major General (first command in Vietnam). He stayed in the Army 32 years because he liked the challenges, excitement, variety of jobs, high levels of responsibility and most of all- his time spent with soldiers.

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?

IS "DEMOCRACY" ABOUT STEALING ELECTIONS? The past thirty years have witnessed radical changes in our political process and the "fundamental transformation" of America.
Several months after blowing the whistle the FBI retaliated by violating his civil rights through unconstitutional surveillance and then raided his home, confiscating his personal property, victimizing his family through intimidation and a vicious smear campaign.
Guest: Nate Cain. Nate is willing to again risk it all to run for Congress in what is sure to be a difficult campaign against the West Virginia political establishment. Other than a city council seat in a very small township in Pennsylvania, Nate is an outsider to political office, currently has no establishment machine or major donors behind him, does not come from a politically connected family, and has never worked as part of the DC Swamp. Nate is an underdog candidate and is willing to throw punches against the Goliaths of government, which is just the way Mountaineers like their fighters.
In Nate's career as cybersecurity expert of 26 years , he has worked for the Army, Navy, Marines, Defense Information Systems Agency, National Security Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Drug Enforcement Administration, receiving medals and service commendations in several positions. Nate has taken the oath three times, once as a soldier and twice as a Department of Defense civilian. He has held and still holds a Top Secret security clearance for 25 of those years, having been entrusted with protection and security of the Nation and its secrets.https://danhappel.com/nate-cain-for-congress/
