In this 250th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we talk about the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.
In this week’s episode, we discuss the election results. The outcome—Trump in office, and both legislative bodies having a Republican majority—has the strong potential to be positive for everyone, and yet so many people are scared or angry. We discuss why, and provide some reasons that letting go of your fear and anger is the right thing to do. Also: what do exit polls reveal about who voted blue vs red? Who are the women who voted for Trump? How can you level up yourself and your understanding of the world? Then: why is the New York Times producing graphics that omit some of its own data, making it appear that the West coast had no shift in voting between 2020 and 2024 (spoiler: a significant majority of counties across the countries moved red this election). Finally: which party had more people who hoped for authoritarian crackdowns just two years ago? And what did the CDC have planned for the dirty and unvaccinated?

Will European wheat have an effect on Bret Weinstein? This is Part II of his European experiment, the results.
Watch Part I: https://rumble.com/v6pns8o-is-bret-allergic-to-european-wheat.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp
Dr. Bret Weinstein is running an experiment on himself. After a decade of avoiding wheat he has tried eating it while in Spain. In this update video he explains how he has been feeling and answers common questions around glyphosate and dry fasting.

No live stream today, instead Bret is running an experiment from Spain.
Do you have a wheat allergy? Have you been able to eat wheat in Europe without the symptoms you experience in America? After a decade without intentionally eating wheat, Bret Weinstein is running an experiment while visiting Spain - will the European wheat cause the same symptoms he experiences when stateside?

To the person who asked about methylation in the Q&A, I recommend the book “Dirty Genes” by Dr. Ben Lynch, available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/6qw1DrQ
He also has a great genetic report available here: https://www.seekinghealth.com/products/strategene-report
I have found the report really helpful, but you can follow his protocol in the book to clean up diet and environmental toxins without the report.
I have many genetic SNPs in my folate pathway. Removing all the folic acid from my diet has been a huge game changer.
Are we living through a Color Revolution?
What History’s Color Revolutions Can Teach Us Today
When I think of a color revolution, I’m reminded of the movie Inception, where an agent tries to plant the seed of an idea so the host acts in a way that benefits someone else. The entire scheme only works if the host is unwitting, if they never realize the idea wasn’t originally theirs.
For me, everything changed when Kobe Bryant died in January 2020, it seemed like such a bad omen. That was also around the time that COVID headlines began circulating. I won’t list all my frustrations about COVID, lockdowns, mandates, censorship, trans activists, or the propaganda (woke revolution?). When I look back, I see a different story than most people, this writing is not to be decisive in the least, but an accurate portrayal of what I see.
A major feature of a color revolution is the ability to influence or control media narratives. For example, when it comes to Ukraine or Syria, organizations connected ...
Bret and Heather, both expressed openness to the idea of recurrent ~6,000- and ~12,000-year solar/geomagnetic catastrophe cycles, largely following Ben Davidson’s model.
How does one reconcile that with the unbroken, multimillion-year fossil and genetic continuity of eastern North American tree species, most notably Asimina triloba (pawpaw), but also beech, sugar maple, tulip poplar, hickory, and dozens of others?
These lineages show no hiatuses, no re-colonization events, and no genetic bottlenecks aligned with the proposed 12 kyr cadence, even though many are understory or mesic species that could not possibly survive centuries of micronova-induced darkness, rapid crustal displacement, or a sudden 30–40° latitudinal shift.
If these cycles are truly catastrophic enough to reset human civilization and drive periodic megafaunal extinctions, why is the botanical clock of the eastern deciduous forest completely unaffected?
In other words: catastrophic for whom, exactly?
