Bret Weinstein (@BretWeinstein) tells @jcurleyshow that Seattle, the entire West Coast, and all the blue states are running a radical policy experiment — except nobody is collecting the data on whether it's working. Full interview premieres on YouTube today at 3:30 PM. Don't miss this one. youtu.be/VK-IficUd_I

BRET: What we all get taught in the West has blinded us to an influx of people who don't look like us, don't talk like us, and don't share our values because we've been induced, we've been so carefully taught not to be racist, a good thing, that we over-apply the lesson.
And we don't understand, huh, I wonder what happens if you bring tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions of people who don't subscribe to the idea that every individual is entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, is entitled to be equally treated, that their life is equally valuable to yours.
What if you flood a system that is based on those principles with people who don't subscribe to them, and nobody reacts because they've been told, that's your mind playing tricks on you, right? There is nothing to worry about, those people look different and that's fine.
And the answer is it's not the fact that they look different that makes it not fine, it's the fact that they don't like us, they don't subscribe to our values, and they have no incentive to keep the system going.
Now it raises questions as to why the UN is so thrilled to upend Western civilization.
HEATHER: Yes, it does.
BRET: But it does not, we should not need the UN sign-off to say, hey, actually, you know what, I'm not a racist and I'm worried as hell about this.

Bret Weinstein Revisits His Controversial Rogan COVID Episode

Toka says it can alter your camera feed. If this is real, video evidence is dead.
@JoshWalkos and @BretWeinstein discuss Toka, a company that says it can find Internet connected cameras, alter their feeds in real time, and leave no trace.
If that's true, what happens to video evidence?

You’d be mostly right if the question was about the depraved behavior itself. But our values are broken and state power is being used as a substitute. That’s a very dangerous pattern, and there is no fixing it without discussion.

Oct. 7: An 8200 Analyst Saw It Coming. Three Years Later, She Got The Acknowledgement & Certificate
An intelligence analyst in Unit 8200, identified only as Senior Master Sergeant V., has finally been honored by the IDF Chief of Staff, three years after the attack she tried to stop.
Long before October 7, V. noticed that Hamas training drills closely followed “Jericho Wall,” Hamas’s blueprint for a cross-border raid. She raised the alarm again and again, warning that the plan had moved from theory to operational readiness. Days before the attack, she went further: Israel’s intelligence sources, she cautioned, might not deliver a warning in time.
Nobody acted then. But now, the military is praising her. Speaking on Oct. 3, 2026, the Chief of Staff described her as “a clear example of intellectual courage and professionalism,” adding that the IDF cannot allow critical thinking to be silenced.
V. was one of several female observers on the Gaza border, whose warnings went unheard. See below.
My take:
Too little too late. No real accountability taken on Oct. 7. No justice was done.
Despite ample variety of evidence, no real investigation conducted and no one held responsible. Instead, all the Israeli political “heroes” are running to elections, gaslighting and convincing upset Israelis that once again, democracy will be the solution for everything.
My message today is exactly the same as on Oct. 7, 2023:
No one is coming to save you.

Seems like a great time to remind people that the spectacular damage done by the Covid mRNA “vaccines” had very little to do with the spike protein, and everything to do with the mRNA platform itself. The new mRNA shots for plague will be just as lethal.

Mass migration turned subsistence farmers in the Darién Gap into a boom economy. When it ended, they were left with nothing.
Bret Weinstein argues the people behind that policy see ordinary Americans the same way, and that AI could do the same thing to all of us.
"Frankly, wake up, folks.
This is what the control grid they're building is for.
They're not planning to take care of us. They're planning to keep us from noticing that we've been betrayed and doing anything about it. That's it."

Now you can read what injection-injured people (and surviving relations) wrote in their V-safe entries. This is intensely powerful material. People not just statistics. 400 pages. Thank you @React19org for putting this together and trusting @brownstoneinst with the release. Please read and share. @SenRonJohnson brownstone.org/articles/crie…

Bret Weinstein says the Epstein files were a bait and switch.
The dump was not what people were asking for. He says the Epstein files were not Jeffrey Epstein’s emails.
According to Bran, they should have been the FBI’s file on the case. What they found. What they concluded. Why they didn’t search Zorro Ranch.
"They gave us a huge amount of stuff, hard to look away from, but it is not what we were talking about."
"We still don't know what Epstein was. We don't know why he was handled the way he was."

If the camera can lie in real time, the tape is no longer evidence.
Bret Weinstein told Julian Dorey a firm called Toka is pitching access to internet-connected CCTV, shut it down, rewrite the feed, no fingerprint the owner can see. Maybe the brochure is smoke. The product category is the problem. A court that treats video as a witness just inherited a witness that can be owned. Convict the innocent. Clear the guilty. Call it safety.
When power can edit the street, jurisprudence is a costume.

Bret Weinstein says Covid uncovered “how the machine actually works.”
“It’s very dark… ”
“I feel like I went to Covid University.”
“I got a graduate degree in criminality, in fraud.”
“I learned all about the way the world actually apparently works… once I had been sort of evicted from polite society.”
“The worst thing about this is that it’s not implausible.”
“It’s on the list of possibilities and it’s very dark.”

An intelligent thesis that would explain almost everything that makes your blood boil.
Thesis:
1. A powerful force (PF) acts with impunity inside the U.S. (examples: JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11, Las Vegas, Covid, J6, Butler, CK)
2. Official investigations (conducted by captured agencies) actively avoid revealing the PF.
3. Cover stories for crimes committed by the PF are reflexively validated and become mainstream narratives.
4. Domain experts are intimidated and punished by the PF for exploring anomalies in official narratives.
5. Domain experts who do respond to these social threats end up fooling themselves in order to resolve their cognitive dissonance, rationalizing official explanations and "debunking" credible hypotheses about the activity of the PF.
6. Dissident, non-conforming experts are ridiculed, leaving them socially and professionally outcast.
7. Because the social and career costs are extreme for those who question official narratives, a market for sophistry emerges--Experts and laypeople alike seek to rationalize their own complacency against the PF.

Thank you for (finally) addressing my actual argument, @michaelshermer. Unfortunately, your response is more like an example of my thesis (advancing fallacious arguments to resolve cognitive dissonance) than it is a refutation of any premise.
I proposed the existence of a powerful force (PF) that appears to act with impunity within the U.S. You demand that I name names, and you suggest I would be laughed out of the Grand Jury chamber if I refused.
What a strange leap. I’m making a logical argument for seeking to identify perpetrators. You want to impose a legal standard from the stage when *the state* has not only identified suspects, but believes it has a strong enough case to prove their guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
You’re a smart man. You know that doesn’t make sense. Many crimes are evident before perpetrators can be identified, let alone prosecuted. That’s why we have investigations. Obviously.

FROM 9/11 TO OCTOBER 7, MAJOR OFFICIAL NARRATIVES ARE COLLAPSING IN REAL TIME.
9/11 reshaped America. It launched wars, expanded government power, and stripped away civil liberties in the name of safety. But for many people, it also planted the first major doubt: can official narratives be trusted?
That doubt often starts with Building 7. Its collapse raised questions about the structural explanation that remain unanswered. Once people question Building 7, they begin asking a larger question. Was 9/11 really carried out solely by 19 men with box cutters and Al-Qaeda?
@BretWeinstein has examined these questions and the wider debate around how the buildings fell. He joins me to discuss why the financial crimes surrounding 9/11 were never investigated, and the evidence of prior knowledge.
The skepticism did not stop with 9/11. COVID, foreign wars, the JFK assassination, and October 7 have all intensified public distrust in government and official institutions. The assassination of Charlie Kirk has added another event where the unanswered questions and loopholes appear to be growing.
What changed is the speed. It took nearly 25 years for widespread public skepticism around 9/11 to take hold. With October 7, many reached similar doubts in less than a year. Those in power can no longer shape public perception as easily as they once did.
That is why scrutiny matters now, especially as governments push central bank digital currencies, Flock cameras, and digital IDs to reshape society and humanity.
