Transcript
00:00:00.000
Last week or two weeks ago, it might have been, the World Health Assembly was, as the
00:00:13.060
name suggests, assembled in Geneva, Switzerland, and they were talking about all these sorts
00:00:18.720
of things that on the surface sound nice, they sound good, they sound like the sorts
00:00:26.600
They want to just facilitate movement around the world.
00:00:31.080
They want to talk about all of the ins and outs of making life better or better protecting
00:00:38.600
And as we've heard time and time again over the last several years, when something is for
00:00:42.380
your protection, it generally comes at a cost, a cost to your mobility rights, a cost to your
00:00:48.120
speech rights, a cost to your ability to make your own decisions as a citizen.
00:00:53.100
And to be honest, whatever you think of the COVID hysteria that has dominated much of the
00:00:58.760
world for much of the last three years, I would hope that everyone could kind of agree with
00:01:03.520
the fact that the World Health Organization has not been a credible voice on this or on
00:01:08.940
It was great when their focus was on preventing malaria in the developing world, but now their
00:01:13.940
focus is preventing mobility everywhere in the world.
00:01:17.980
This organization that would capitulate literally and figuratively to China, that would, you know,
00:01:24.280
literally hang up on a Taiwanese reporter that dares to ask about Taiwan's inclusion in
00:01:29.540
the World Health Organization, which in fairness, if I were Taiwan, I wouldn't be pushing for
00:01:34.720
And an organization that believes it should be the sole decision maker on all of these
00:01:39.440
things that affect the individual decisions that should belong to individual people.
00:01:45.080
But increasingly, we have governments that are abdicating their obligation to their citizens
00:01:49.940
and I would say their national sovereignty to the World Health Organization.
00:01:54.100
So it's been curious that as the global leaders were talking all about this stuff in Geneva, there
00:02:05.480
I should say, first and foremost, I had been looking into going to Geneva to cover it myself.
00:02:11.120
But when I looked at the agenda for the meetings and I looked at the documents, a lot of the
00:02:15.600
stuff that people were interested in wasn't appearing there.
00:02:18.400
There wasn't a lot of talk on the agenda about the global pandemic treaty that's coming into
00:02:24.020
Hopefully there wasn't a lot of discussion about global vaccine passports, but the joke was
00:02:28.720
on me because all of these things were discussed.
00:02:31.020
They just didn't want to draw attention to them.
00:02:33.600
Well, I'm glad that one woman who was there to shine a light on this is with us today.
00:02:37.880
Michelle Bachman, former U.S. Congresswoman, former Republican presidential candidate, and
00:02:43.400
now the dean of the School of Government at Regent University joins me.
00:02:50.300
And more importantly, she's also my cruise mate on the Mark Stein cruises the last couple of years.
00:02:56.620
And we're going to be sailing again in a few weeks' time.
00:03:06.980
So let's just start with why you went there, because I would imagine that you were probably
00:03:11.560
not a popular voice there as someone who is speaking out against a lot of the very things
00:03:17.100
that these people have been pushing for with, sadly, a fair bit of success the last few years.
00:03:21.720
Well, I wanted to go because of how consequential this meeting is.
00:03:29.580
I have no interest in being in meetings gobbledygook.
00:03:35.400
But this is more than just changing a bureaucracy of the subset of the United Nation dealing with
00:03:43.960
The United Nations health care arm is called the World Health Organization.
00:03:51.720
And so countries had the ability to just reject whatever they said or adopt it if they thought
00:03:59.040
And it was a fairly inconsequential organization.
00:04:02.660
You can see the good altruistic purpose for it.
00:04:06.440
If there's an area in the world that needs help, nations of the world can band together
00:04:14.240
But now this is a malevolent plan to take the World Health Organization and supercharge
00:04:22.220
it to the global surveillance system, the global tracking system, the global tracing system
00:04:30.380
And we had that not only in Geneva, but an announcement was made yesterday, Andrew, from the European
00:04:37.580
Basically, in Brussels and the European Union, they made an announcement together with the
00:04:44.280
World Health Organization that the World Health Organization would adopt the global digital
00:04:49.900
passports that have been created in Brussels for the use of the 80 nations in the European
00:04:57.060
But now the World Health Organization is going to take that example of a global digital passport
00:05:03.760
where everyone has a digital ID on their phone and they've got a QR code and then will be tracked
00:05:13.840
This is very curious to me because at the G20 last November, the health minister of Indonesia
00:05:21.180
made this very casual offhand remark at the G20 that the top G20 nations have gotten together.
00:05:28.920
We've all decided we're going to have global digital passports.
00:05:32.160
They will be put forth by the World Health Organization.
00:05:38.380
And we're just going to go ahead and have this surveillance.
00:05:44.140
And so they waited until after all of the votes were taken, if they took any votes.
00:05:49.200
They didn't take any votes on the proposed 307 amendments to the international health rules.
00:05:54.080
They didn't take any votes on the global pandemic treaty.
00:05:57.500
They waited until about a week after the whole shebang was over.
00:06:01.140
And then they announced in a press release, oh, by the way, we're going to empower the World
00:06:08.020
Now, they're going to be the ones in charge of this digital health care passport.
00:06:14.500
And they'll be the ones in the process of tracking and tracing and surveilling the rest of us
00:06:19.900
and giving permission if we can get on a public conveyance like a plane and go somewhere while
00:06:26.820
they also call the shots on literally what vaccines we have to have and boosters and whatever
00:06:33.460
Yeah, I'm glad you mentioned that timeline, because I was just saying in my intro on this
00:06:38.700
segment that I looked at the agenda and ultimately decided it wasn't going to be worth going because
00:06:43.400
the things they were talking about on the agenda were not the things that we're talking about
00:06:48.240
And as I said, I mean, foolish on my part, because ultimately this was exactly the purpose.
0.85
00:06:53.360
But you're right that they do it in this way where I have to assume that the public agenda
00:06:57.840
was taking place alongside this parallel agenda where these folks were all talking behind
00:07:02.920
closed doors and all agreeing to what then gets announced two weeks later that no one
00:07:11.540
And this is really the story of the WHO, is it not?
00:07:14.740
That, you know, they say they're this democratic body, the product of states.
00:07:18.100
But really, all the action seems to take place outside of that democratic forum.
00:07:29.800
They despise the issue of democracy and of the delegates that were there.
00:07:34.240
As a matter of fact, there's 194 nations, essentially all nations on earth who are members of the
00:07:41.280
And they were all like a bunch of bobblehead dolls.
00:07:44.820
Every single one of the delegates were reading off of basically the same script.
00:07:54.380
In other words, we're going to have outcome-based, socialized medicine for the world, a concept
00:08:05.700
And so all these little poorer nations think, great, this will be wonderful.
00:08:12.400
What they don't realize is that health care is about to be downgraded, particularly in
00:08:20.380
So no one is getting high-quality health care, except for the John Careys of the world and
00:08:26.120
the elites of the world who will have their own health care system.
00:08:29.640
And as a matter of fact, that was one of the shocking things to me.
00:08:33.920
The main event didn't happen in conferences A or B or the plenary sessions, where the real
00:08:42.320
rubber hit the road were in these strategic roundtables, kind of optional meetings.
00:08:47.620
But they clearly laid out their timeline, their content, their strategy.
00:08:52.680
And they talked about the 307 amendments to the international health rules.
00:08:57.640
The fellow in charge of passing them is Dr. Abdullah Asiri.
00:09:02.120
And he said, well, during the next pandemic, and they all talked about the next pandemic.
00:09:06.880
Remember, it was 100 years from the Spanish flu until COVID.
00:09:12.920
Oh, they talk about it as though it's like coming out next week.
00:09:15.660
I mean, they got excited about monkeypox because they thought they had like another
00:09:22.600
And Dr. Asiri said, you know, we can't, with the next pandemic, we can't use the old international
1.00
00:09:29.820
We have to have new, bold, strong health rules.
00:09:33.100
Because the problem with the last pandemic was civil liberties.
00:09:39.840
So we've got to diminish and take away people's civil liberties.
00:09:43.660
It's, you can find this, you can go to who.int, click on 76 World Health Assembly, and then
00:09:51.840
look at the strategic roundtables, the very first one on Monday, and you too can hear
00:09:56.880
Dr. Asiri say, the problem is too many civil liberties, and we got got to get rid of them.
00:10:04.480
They scratch out the words in the international health rules, human freedom, human dignity,
00:10:17.240
All they care about is empowering the World Health Organization.
00:10:21.920
So it really is the global, Gestapo is probably a terrible word, but the global police, if you
00:10:31.240
They call the shots, not the individual nation states anymore on health care decisions, or
00:10:40.020
Remember, in the United States, for instance, we lived under emergency powers for three years.
00:10:47.880
Emergency powers were only recently lifted May 11th of 2023.
00:10:53.040
This would give the right to dictate emergency powers to the World Health Organization, and
00:11:01.300
Let me ask you, Michelle, why countries are not more resistant to this?
00:11:07.180
Because, I mean, theoretically, a country could do what the United States was going to do had
00:11:11.780
Donald Trump been re-elected, which is withdraw from the WHO entirely.
00:11:17.060
But what we saw was countries increasingly abdicating their own decision-making to the WHO.
00:11:25.080
I mean, if you were to have a conversation about COVID on YouTube, YouTube is going to throw
00:11:29.780
up a misinformation label, and they're going to say, you know, you violated what the World
00:11:33.880
Health Organization sets out as being best practices.
00:11:39.260
Because surely individual nation states realize that this is not in their best interest to
00:11:43.580
give this much power to an unelected non-doctor bureaucrat, that Tedros Adhanom guy.
00:11:52.300
We all know that the Communist Party of China has global reach and global ambitions, and they've
00:11:59.120
been, with their Belt and Road initiative, buying off Latin American countries, South
0.92
00:12:12.480
And they will say, well, we'll pay for this airport for you.
00:12:17.640
We will take care of this infrastructure with you.
00:12:20.480
You just sign here on the dotted line for your loan, wink, wink, and we'll put this in for you.
00:12:26.980
Well, a lot of these countries are used to loan forgiveness.
00:12:30.540
The United States, for instance, has done a lot of loan forgiveness.
00:12:36.540
They're not the ones who are going to do the loan forgiveness.
00:12:38.780
So the number one entity that calls the shots at the World Health Organization is the Communist
00:12:45.840
And so this is something that they want because this is the Chinese system.
00:12:53.200
It is how China controls their own people.
0.99
00:12:56.240
So now this system that China has in place, this digital surveillance, is exactly what's
0.53
00:13:02.320
being implemented through the WHO, only it's meant for all nations globally.
00:13:10.060
Joe Biden was the lead aggressor a year ago trying to introduce 29 amendments to completely
00:13:16.460
pivot the purpose of the WHO away from being an advisory-only body to be a regulatory and
00:13:24.600
enforcement body when it came to health emergencies.
00:13:30.180
Then Botswana and a few African nations objected.
00:13:37.760
Because behind the scenes, they were putting all of this into place.
00:13:42.020
And then this year when I went, I fully expected that they would pass these amendments and pass
00:13:50.440
It was clear from day one they were not going to pass it.
00:13:58.340
Because one week after they ended the World Health Assembly, they had a press conference
00:14:04.180
yesterday or they issued a press release and announced that the WHO would take over the
00:14:11.520
And that's really all you need for effectively global governance or global surveillance.
00:14:18.000
Because if the WHO controls the terms and the enforcement, they really are creating a platform
00:14:26.700
And they're doing it through the Global Digital Passport.
00:14:32.500
You're not able to do things you are used to doing unless your QR code is up to date and
00:14:42.820
And the way they couch it in all of these things is about being for your convenience.
00:14:48.200
They basically say that you do this and it's going to make it a little bit more helpful.
00:14:52.420
You know, the airline that I travel with more often than not, they've done this digital
00:14:56.180
ID pilot project where when you log in, they say, oh, if you'd like, you can do a facial
00:15:00.820
scan on your phone and then you can actually board the airplane more conveniently because
00:15:05.520
we'll just take a picture of your face there and that will open the gate.
00:15:09.100
And it's like, I'm looking at this and I'm saying, first off, the voluntary never stays
00:15:13.460
So this little like thing you can try if you want is going to become mandatory in, you
00:15:19.140
But also when you trade away things in the name of convenience, you will end up realizing
00:15:27.660
And that's the whole thing with these Global Vaccine Passports.
00:15:30.620
We shouldn't be making it easy for states and IOs like the WHO to standardize this stuff.
00:15:40.760
People need to understand how far down the road this is.
00:15:50.800
Universal health being global socialized medicine.
00:15:53.820
The criterion for health care decisions is a concept known as One Health.
00:15:58.440
And they had a diagram and the diagram includes man, animals, the environment.
00:16:05.500
And so when you look into it, the health care criterion is man is worth no more, is no more
00:16:13.780
Man is no more valuable than a lump of dirt.
0.85
00:16:16.560
So it's essentially man equals a cockroach, each equals a lump of dirt.
0.91
00:16:24.280
So for Canadians that deal with wait times, now we have to wait behind a tree for our surgery,
00:16:30.220
Well, basically, because now at this point, John Kerry made an appearance at this World Health
00:16:37.920
Assembly, and both Dr. Tedros Jabracius and John Kerry said that, you know, we had focused
00:16:47.340
Well, yeah, three years, COVID-19, we'd focused on infectious diseases.
00:16:53.540
Now we're going to pivot and we're going to focus on climate change.
00:16:58.240
These climate change people have been desperate to put a control system into place, effectively
00:17:05.580
a global government, on the basis of climate change.
00:17:14.060
But after COVID, these climate change people saw how effective you could control people
00:17:22.720
So on day two of the strategic roundtable, John Kerry comes in, and he says, you know,
00:17:29.140
I didn't realize that health care is really driven by climate change.
00:17:37.460
And so Dr. Tedros Jabracius said the same thing.
00:17:40.460
Yet we're going to pivot away from infectious diseases.
00:17:43.720
Our number one priority now at World Health is climate change.
00:17:49.760
So now the number one factor for the WHO will be, can we keep the Earth's temperature at
00:18:01.280
So in that case, the lump of dirt equals a cockroach equals mankind.
00:18:07.300
What that says is the lump of dirt is going to win every time.
00:18:11.460
So whatever it is that the elites who control the World Health Organization want, they will
00:18:24.080
Because in the global pandemic treaty, they create this little group of elites called like
00:18:29.200
the Council of the Parties or the Commission of the Parties, something like that.
00:18:33.180
And they irrigate to themselves perpetual rulemaking authority.
00:18:38.420
They never have to meet again for the World Health Assembly.
00:18:42.000
This little commission on the parties will meet with perpetual authority.
00:18:47.300
And they'll just create the rules to give the WHO more power and more power and more power.
00:18:53.800
And the sick thing is that led by Joe Biden in the United States, all these nations are willingly, voluntarily giving up their sovereignty over health care decision making.
0.88
00:19:06.740
It is a fatal, ridiculous, tragic decision.
0.70
00:19:11.760
And so, you know, you may have a global audience.
0.72
00:19:14.940
I hope you do, Andrew, because people in other countries, people in Canada, this is the time now to wake up and realize we're very far down the road with this thing.
00:19:26.060
Because now the World Health Organization is calling the shots for the EU.
00:19:31.600
And they're already announcing they're going to call the shots for all of the other nations that join in on this global digital passport.
00:19:39.560
And the ability to travel is contained in that.
00:19:44.360
Most likely, our digital currency will be contained in it.
00:19:48.120
Perhaps even the right to buy and sell will be contained in it.
00:19:51.560
It's extremely serious, and it's how you can control people, and it's already off the ground.
00:19:58.280
And yesterday, they made the announcement that the WHO was controlling this.
00:20:06.780
You know, if I were the leader of an African medical group, I'd be very angry that no one cares about the HIV outbreak anymore.
00:20:14.380
No one cares about the malaria outbreak, that they all care about, you know, shutting down oil refineries in Alberta and West Virginia or wherever they are.
00:20:23.280
Michelle Bachman, I'm so glad you went there when no one else in the world was interested in covering this.
