Iran impeachment iowa theyre all sequels a lot from hollywood this week well talk with someone who has seen these movies before and he helped write the scripts the 1st time larry but 1st as Health Care Costs creep up how social media censors and shadow bans alternative health news an outspoken expert will tell us how big and big pharma are in cahoots holland cook and from our new los angeles studio this is the big picture on our t. V. America. Youve heard the accusations often from the political right that social media and internet search. Skew left whether this is about algorithms or ideology is itself an argument but is cyber suppression a matter of life and death as ask maryam and i am an investigative journalist founder of honey colony Whose Mission is to scrutinize hype and claims about Natural Health products and remedies and the power used to be your own Health Advocate and she directed the Award Winning documentary vanishing of the bees heres a peek i think that for a lot of people when they think about these they think about getting stung. Honey bees are essential theyre essential if you want roots if you want vegetables because they pony all of those blood people out here dont realize that when they reach 3 bites of food a stick in their mouth these honeybees put on their dinner plate vanishing of the bees is available on demand on i tunes merriam congratulations on the film and welcome thank you for having your report in the epoch times caught our eye you quoted a long time Google Software engineer turned quibble blower who says the censorship that is being applied to alternative health is daemonic ive been following the happenings in new cures that are being suppressed at the same time establishment big corporate pharma websites like web m d r about opera lies in the 1st page of results whats terrifying is that many of these establishment medical articles landing on the 1st page do not even have a stated author and make assertions that are contradicted by science merriam give us the next level of detail about how google censors and shadow bands and blacklists alternative health news i reached out to zack for hes the google whistleblower to see if you could confirm a lot of my findings a whole bevy of us in the alternative health were. Old that are really challenging the mainstream narrative when it comes to western medicine and challenging big pharma have been suppressed by google and i call this techno fascism so we do not come up in Search Engines that say green med info mercola dot recall the dot com honey colony unless in google you add honey calling dot com given someone knows who we are we will not come up and we used to have 500000 unique visitors a month we were doing really well based on our content which was a c. E. O. Positive you use the term techno fascism. Suggesting this is more than algorithmic the suppression this has to do with losing our privacy surveillance manipulation social Credit System that similar to chinese social Credit System its about mind control its about censoring freedom of speech its about inverse ing the truth its orwellian were seeing im seeing research disappear in real time were vaporizing words and our 1st amendment is at risk your report labels google a trojan horse for big pharma and i guess i was more disturbed than surprised to read that googles Parent Company alphabet has pharma subsidiaries absolutely i say that google is a drug company now and so for me the most startling find was that they had invested in vax attack which is out of office for it and they are developing a one size fits all flu vaccine which means that they are not on during our personal fingerprint and fingerprint we all have different bio chemistry and we cant all take a one size fits all what do they have to do what does google have to do with drugs well now theyre. Own buy pharmaceuticals. Dr mercola has lost 7899 percent of his traffic honey calling dot com has lost 76 percent of our traffic a lot of controversy about vaccination which you mentioned is google contaminating that conversation is a corrupting the exchange of ideas about vaccines i think there is a Global Network that are working to mandate vaccines and theres vaccine mania and i dont like the word and backs are i am pro medical freedom i am pro informed consent and i been speaking and doing my own research speaking with mothers a vaccine injured children at what point does anecdotal evidence become impure called data youre an epoch times report also mentioned something i had myself read from google about how to improve search results on google simply says eat eat 80 publish stuff that demonstrates your expertise your authoritativeness and your trustworthiness and google spiders will find you but mary telling us of the Playing Field is less level are humans within google picking winners and losers yeah theyre manipulating search theres no more organic search results now its auto suggestion so i minored in psychology that is a very subtle but powerful mind control tool so if you were to put in the example that i often use is if you were to put in supplements are what will come up now is not the most popular what people are actually looking for it will come up with maligned searches like supplements are dangerous supplements are not f. D. A. Approved so how do we form our perceptions its based on information if were not getting the information and the information is manipulated then that is impacting. How we see the world and were getting half assed truths what is fake is now true and the inverse its topsyturvy the ministry of truth is very hard at work you are quoted congressman David Sicilian who calls the growth of monopoly power one of the most pressing economic and political challenges we face today and he says that after 4 decades of weak at the trust in force meant in judicial hostility to anti trust cases it is critical that Congress Step in to determine whether existing laws are adequate to tackle abusive content platform gate keepers and i got chills a minute ago when you were talking about how this happens theres been controversy about Google Search generally filling in the blanks and ive noticed this myself when i start typing something in the search bar it seems to want to guess what im after give us the next level of detail about auto suggestions about auto complete and how this has impacted some of the work you and others have done so people need to understand that google no longer has organic searches i say that its genetically modified and process to control your mind so from the letter a from the get go if you put a lets say amazon will come back well do people realize that amazon is is is googles biggest advertiser and so its maligned and from the outside it would look like google is not working with other platforms of social media but this is a consorted effort robert dr Robert Epstein has been monitoring google since 2012 when he himself got banned after giving an interview that was. Arguably controversial then he got also banned by apple by safari in apple and he was like what is going on and he has done the most indepth out of anyone use. Monitoring systems so again we create our conclusions our perceptions based on information if were not being fed proper information and anything that challenges the narrative is being suppressed especially comes to health and wellness then how can we heal if if its always guiding us to drugs and to stories like web m. D. Because money is changing hands absolutely they want to guests to get us on this is sick care why is it so challenging Natural Remedies and believing in your own bodys ability every verst lupus ive reversed fibromyalgia learned how to walk again through Natural Remedies you yourself have suffered censorship and banning yes the platform yes i have been shut down. Because of c. B. D. Through merchant processors ive been banned for life from pay pal ive been scrubbed off of. Go fund me im censored chatto banned on twitter so i need to feel like all the support i need a hive to help get my message out why are they suppressing people that challenge the fake narrative about the bees too often or caricature it by those who are naive about or contributing to environmental problems explained the scope of what contribute and how we are now imperiled well honey bees are a prime pollinators they pollinate everything from of a car goes to zucchini the value in the us is 18000000000. 00 dollars d worth of crops and they are still dying more than a decade later due to what is dubbed a colony collapse disorder and that the heart are systemic pesticides that are made by syngenta and more so bayer now monsanto because they. Join forces theres a big big big corporate chemicals yeah that is tied to big pharma and when the bees go we starve absolutely we starve we depend on them and theyre not the only ones that are dying we focus on them because theyre the most precious to us but other pollinators bats birds are also disappearing its also impacting our soil these systemic pesticides take 18 years to degrade and theyre metabolites or even more dangerous theyre also harming aquatic life and worms and i tell people 10 years later we are the bees that are slowly being poisoned by sub lethal doses people who are watching this can do what as consumers and as constituents in regards to the bees well most importantly is food is the medicine to eat clean food thats not you know youre investing today for your future tomorrow as far as your health these toxins have been shown to synergize in the bees and they also synergize in the us there are 84000. 00 chemicals that are on regulated so its not only the food supply you can just be mindful a tell people to watch the film you need to be the change that you want to see and it starts how do you effect change through education and people need to be able to have access to information which is endangered now salute you need to read the ingredients so many people dont read the ingredients if you cant pronounce it you can digest it marian my name thank you for stepping into that we are thankful that you do it thank you thank you. Coming up has seen history happen on our real time for a long time larry king joins us next from our new our to america studio in los angeles this is the big picture. Max geysers financial survival guide. Housing bubble. Oh you mean theres a downside artificially low Mortgage Rates dont get carried away thats cause a report. On a space flight you literally leave all your problems behind you fly high and above everyone and everything and then you see any and all voter lines going to disappear you see that up planet is not as were taught in schools with Different Countries marked in different colors separate from one another you see that all planet earth is just another it will be a Big International space station on a mission in the fastness of space just like the i assess. 4 decades ago 52 americans were taken hostage in iran after president carter granted asylum to leave despotic shah we had supported for decades my goshi nations were fruitless and 8 of our servicemen died in a failed rescue mission after 444. 00 days we all counted down together the hostages were released only as president reagan was sworn in as 4 decades ago as all this was unfolding i met the host of the larry king show which aired overnight on hundreds of radio stations including the one i was managing and New Hampshire at the time larry welcome back to the big picture and to our t. Americas new l. A. Studio. Beautiful studios good to see a back to the future many who are paying attention for at that were at the brink of war but Many Americans arent paying attention to 40 years ago we were all tired and yellow ribbons but read the room have americans become distracted by trump by tweets by media overload do they understand whats going on anymore i cant think for americans but i think in answer the question yes were overloaded with this it almost becomes to this might eventually trump when it becomes too much trump you know when when are we going to get tired of him coming on every day and tweeting that could occur because now weve got a. Thing way hes being prosecuted these hes impeached ive never been ive been on the air 62 years never seen america like this and you have known donald trump us for of the donald trump i know i knew is not the donald trump meanwhile in political washington this is the super bowl next stop for the trump impeachment is the United States senate where Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell among other republicans is already admitted he will be a less than impartial juror and controversy over Trumps Senate trial process snagged on whether or not witnesses will testify something mcconnell regarded as standard procedure the last time we impeached a president remember this. They have been 15 impeachments in the history of this country 2 of them were cut short by resignations and the other 13 impeachments they were witnesses its not unusual to have a witness in a trial its certainly not unusual have a witness in an impeachment trial or to let the house managers have only asked for 3 witnesses i think thats pretty modest larry suppose you had mcconnell sitting here right now and you played that clip what would you ask them. Comment by the way it begs the question. Mitch. What changed. Hypocrisy is rampant and thats when he was so firm on that too sure what this was and there were witnesses who stood in the way of judge garland ascending to the Supreme Court that is an abomination since then he has been asked what if Justice Ginsburg retires or passes away and he says all will move a nominee right through. And judge thats a tragedy hes a hard word to use he was a great judge and he made a great Supreme Court judge and that should never have happened after all the years you did radio and t. V. Inside the beltway back east youre now here in Southern California 3 time zones away how tuned in do you think people outside the beltway are to day to day washington by news only those who watch r t c n b c m s n b c and c. N. N. We dont get news the only news you get now is r t gives you news and the only news you get is the evening news on n. B. C. C. B. S. And a. B. C. For a half hour you turn to any of the cable outlets the c. N. N. The m is and b cs you will get nothing but trump 24 hours a day if front and its no more one on one anymore all panels and theres 17 pundits conan and everybodys son exclusive this guys got in they got him i you know its funny i think we were better suited years ago than we are now when it was the news then and now fox news is not fox enough for trop and you have got one america and newsmax and all these others trying to outfox fox fox news please the guy calling it fox a. News is an oxymoron. The most recent democratic debate has winnow that onstage field down to 6 candidates who among these survivors strikes you as having the pole position whos really running for Vice President or is all this just talk before super tuesday. I dont know whos running for Vice President i think biden is clearly the and no matter how he does when he doesnt do. Hes still the leader in that pack i dont know how long that holds on till that convention or if we have a brokered convention or we have a split Democratic Party which would not be good for the country im impressed with the senator from minnesota Amy Clover Sharyn we call bashar she comes on strong shes very effective i also like may have a good guy he may be a little before his time he and Amy Khloe Bush are have been workin iowa like crazy dont be surprised if they do well theyre correct the caucuses always amaze me. Ive been to iowa for many of them and i still dont know how it works. They call in people go into a room and theres a guy there would a desk their desk that is then you go over them pull it for who you like and then they cant do next when you cant vote for i. C. And its a mass confusion nobody paid much attention to it until jimmy carter came out of nowhere of course shocked us in 76. 00 and won the iowa caucus and he did and suddenly he was jimmy carter and i want to be president and the day after the iowa caucus in iowa its like the day after the New Hampshire primary and i hampshire sagebrush and tumbleweed you know has moved on this is the same night you have met youve interviewed Mike Bloomberg what do you make of his candidacy. If he had started sooner. He had been a very effective 1st season extraordinary guy hes a guy get fired stated to me 20000 people now work conform. He detests trump. And he says he knows trump from new york and thats why id test them even more he really hates trump they change the city charter lifting his term and so he could have a 3rd term as mayor stop and frisk was a mistake but he was a hell of a mayor i mean brought that city together economically but hes a tough guy too or he says now he will if he doesnt get the nomination hell spend the money on whoever the nominee is this leads to a question. These nominees have pledged not to take. Money will be people will they take money from bloomberg pitching speaking of mega bucks tom styer has been a pile of his own dough hes been accused of buying his way into that most recent debate in iowa after Donald Trumps improbable win is it now Old School Old think to consider people like tom styer or bloomberg outsiders broken the mold no one new times but hes pretty effective commercials were very well hes very sincere he was smart on the debate i thought he was very good on the debate i like to know him i dont know tom you do want to know him better you do tom brokaw reckons that the most extraordinarily powerful tool in the most Destructive Development in modern life is the Current Media everybody has a voice and i think its great for people that have a voice but theres no way to verify whats true and whats not it has no context its just a 247 rage about whats pissing people off across the board from left to the right it could be a unifying factor but its a dividing factor were going to show a picture that went viral on social media and if youre listening to this show as a podcast this is an advertising billboard in the new york city subway at 1st glance it appears to be an ad for Fox News Channel with sean hannity and Laura Ingraham and even Tucker Carlson not scowling but the caption under the fox news logo who reads comfort food for stupid people clearly paid for by someone flexing the 1st amendment rather than touting Fox News Channel the brokaw statement i completely agree with thats what weve become its very very sad well the phrase talk radio where you and i met where you and i came from has become a caricature you picture a bellicose host he talks you listen hes right your wrong cable news as you mentioned earlier offers a menu you can choose your reality. Its noisy echo chamber time do you think that we will ever have meaningful dialogue again or are we just at the point of no return where no minds ever get any old saying when it Goes Around Comes Around i hope that old saying is correct i hope. Intense coverage of events comes back i hope we get news other than politics on the news kids i hope we get good discussions i hope we get more one on one we came here from the Consumer Electronics show in las vegas which if you missed last weeks show you can see whats new and whats next where youll find all our shows at youtube dot com slash the big picture are a t. But larry while in vegas i made my perennially optimistic world series red sox wager and i couldnt help but notice in the odds that as the odds makers see it now its either going to be astros or yanks versus the dodgers are a long suffering orioles or a 1000 to one shot or what have one of them the dodges should be favored you know i think the get out of the National League if they can get out of it with the other team tapping their wires the dodgers deserve to world series penance. The last 2 Major League Baseball has never but should they fake 8 that world series win that the astros got by cheating the dodgers. On the judge because im a dodger fan through and through and i was at every game of the world series i went to euston. And sure they should make a day you cant take away the players money theyve been given but yeah you could take away that a you printed out of the trophy whats right is right whats right is right and they cheated.
