The 1993 Waco siege unfolded as a 51-day confrontation between federal authorities and the Branch Davidians, beginning with a failed ATF raid on February 28 and escalating into a full FBI-controlled standoff at the Mount Carmel compound. This podcast frames the event not as a simple law enforcement action, but as a deliberate and aggressive operation that intensified over time, involving armored vehicles, psychological pressure, and ultimately a decision to force an end through tear gas insertion. On April 19, that plan was executed, and within hours the compound was engulfed in flames, leaving more than 70 people dead, including women and children. While official accounts have long maintained that the fire was started by those inside, critics and alternative investigations argue that the tactics used—particularly the use of gas and the manner of the assault—played a direct role in the outcome. The result is an event that remains deeply disputed, with competing narratives over responsibility, use of force, and decision-making at the highest levels, ensuring that Waco is still viewed not as a closed case, but as a defining moment in the debate over government authority and accountability Email: [email protected] Website: foundationsinfaith.net

This is a special crossover episode bringing together key threads into one focused investigation. We trace the connections between Stanley Kubrick, Sam Jaffe, and the Apollo 11 mission, examining the timeline, technology, and imagery that shaped how the world came to understand “space” before it was ever seen firsthand. From 2001: A Space Odyssey to The Shining and Eyes Wide Shut, we follow Kubrick’s work step by step, uncovering symbolism, placement, and recurring patterns. We then move beyond film into language and symbolism—Apollo, Artemis, Nike, Saturn—asking why major programs and institutions draw from pagan mythology. This episode challenges the broader cosmological narrative presented as settled truth and explores how media, education, and repetition shape belief. At its core, this is not just about deception but about the removal of God from creation and the deeper spiritual implications behind it. Support our work: foundationsinfaith.net

In this episode, I sit down with Matthew from The Armed National for a wide-ranging discussion on the foundations of American governance, individual sovereignty, and the historical shifts that reshaped the relationship between citizens and the state. We examine the contrast between the Articles of Confederation and the modern federal system, the impact of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s policies, the 1930s gold confiscation, the introduction of Social Security numbers, and the growing influence of the Federal Reserve. From a Christian perspective, we explore the tension between God-given rights and civil authority, asking where obedience ends and conscience begins. The conversation challenges listeners to reconsider history, law, and liberty while encouraging thoughtful discernment grounded in Scripture.

In 1950, the U.S. military secretly released bacteria over San Francisco to study how a biological attack might spread through a major American city. Known as Operation Sea-Spray, the test exposed hundreds of thousands of civilians without their knowledge and became part of a larger Cold War pattern of covert experimentation, from subway dispersion tests to other secret research programs. In this episode, we examine the documented history, the illness cluster that followed, the machinery behind the biological warfare state, and the broader question it raises: when national security is used to justify secrecy, how often are ordinary people turned into unwitting participants — and what happens when the truth finally comes to light?

Oil, war, and energy have reshaped daily life before, and the signs are appearing again. This episode examines how major supply shocks in 1973, 1990, 2008, and 2020 led to rising prices, reduced travel, and government efforts to manage demand. With tensions threatening key oil routes and policymakers already discussing conservation measures, the same pattern may be forming once more. This is not just about geopolitics, but about mobility, economics, and how energy shortages can quietly influence how far, how often, and how freely people move. Email: [email protected]

James Arrabito, artist, lecturer, and evangelist, researched the history of Catholicism and the Jesuits in his search for an understanding of the biblical prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. In this lecture, recorded in 1985 in Angwin, CA, he shares from their own writings the origin and purpose of the Jesuit Order. Jim, along with two of his sons, lost his life in a plane crash in 1990.

In this episode, we begin with the tornadoes that tore through our area and use that moment to step into a broader investigation—tracing weather manipulation from 19th-century experimentation to Operation Popeye and the questions that remain today. From there, the conversation widens into a series of signals across history and current events: Jim Garrison, resurfacing clips from Bill Cooper and Robert Welch, and the steady drumbeat of political rhetoric pushing war abroad while cultural and spiritual decay grows at home. We examine topics like Canada’s MAiD program, the influence of lobbying power, declining churches, secretive societies, and the ongoing battle over language, truth, and identity. Taken together, these are not isolated headlines but pieces of a larger pattern—one that points to a coordinated shaping of society, perception, and belief, and ultimately a deeper spiritual war for the hearts and minds of people.

In this Fact Hunter Classic Audio, we go back to 1958 to hear a speech from Robert Welch, founder of the John Birch Society, delivered during the early years of the Cold War. In this recording, Welch outlines what he believed was a long-range strategy designed to gradually reshape American society through economic policy, expanding federal power, influence over education, and shifts in public opinion. Agree or disagree with his conclusions, this recording stands as a fascinating historical snapshot of the concerns and debates shaping the American political landscape of that era. As always, we present the material so you can listen and evaluate it for yourself. Email us: [email protected]

Is the Government Legally Killing Us? Scott Schara’s new book, which will be released on March 10, 2026, is a relentless search for the truth after the death of his daughter, Grace Schara, in a Wisconsin hospital. Framed as both a legal and moral reckoning, Schara draws on court filings, regulatory history, and firsthand experience to uncover an agenda that you have to be sitting down to believe. It establishes that the medical system we’ve been programmed to trust is killing us and that the legal system protects the guilty—what the author calls “the crime of the millennium.” Links:  Is the Government Legally Killing Us?: Is the Evidence Obvious?

Recent commentary surrounding Professor Jiang’s three predictions centers on escalating Middle East tensions, expanding regional war risks, and the possibility that U.S. policy decisions could trigger wider instability if deterrence postures shift or appear inconsistent. His framework suggests that symbolic military moves, alliance signaling, and narrative framing in media will shape public perception as much as battlefield realities. At the same time, reports of senior NCOs facing counseling for criticizing Israel on social media have raised concerns among some veterans about the boundaries between personal speech and military professionalism. The tension sits at the intersection of constitutional rights, Department of Defense conduct policies, and the unique restrictions placed on service members, especially those in leadership roles, where public commentary on foreign policy can be interpreted as undermining cohesion or discipline.

In this episode, we have a powerful conversation with Jeff Fish of Abolitionists Rising, an organization committed to the immediate and total abolition of abortion, not through incremental regulation, but by demanding equal protection under the law for preborn children and the criminalization of abortion as murder. Abolitionists Rising exists to spread abolitionist ideas through digital and print media that confront cultural lies and arguments raised against the knowledge of God, to connect believers with local abolitionist groups through an interactive national network, and to mobilize support for abolitionist legislation across the country. Distinct from the broader pro-life movement in theology, strategy, and end goals, the ministry calls the nation to repentance, revival, and reformation, insisting that political change without heart change is hollow. Above all, their stated aim is the glorification of God, holding that no legislative victory matters if it does not flow from obedience to Him and a return to biblical truth.

When Salt of Salt-N-Pepa said “Satanists run the world,” she wasn’t saying anything Scripture hasn’t already warned about. In Episode 401, we go straight to 2 Corinthians 4:3–4 (KJV) and deal with what the Bible actually says about the “god of this world,” spiritual blindness, and organized darkness operating behind the systems people blindly trust. This is not about chasing conspiracies. It’s about recognizing that deception is real, that nations are routinely framed as heroes and villains to divide populations, and that believers must refuse to be manipulated by narrative warfare. With Christians living in Iran, Israel, and across hostile regions, the body of Christ is not confined to political borders. The call is simple and urgent: stay in Christ, reject hatred, be peacemakers, and do not let Satan win by capturing your heart while the world burns. Email: [email protected]

Why Are We “Friends of the IDF”? In this episode of The Fact Hunter, we examine how a U.S.-based, tax-exempt nonprofit raising hundreds of millions of dollars operates in support of a foreign military while tensions with Iran dominate headlines. With Friends of the Israel Defense Forces led by Major Gen. (Res.) Nadav Padan and publicly reporting massive revenues and overseas disbursements, we step back from emotion and look at structure, optics, and fairness. Why does this arrangement exist under U.S. nonprofit law? Why isn’t it treated as a major public conversation? And what does it say about who gets to direct money and influence in America while ordinary citizens carry the tax burden? We also look ahead to next week's guests: Jeff Fish of "Abolitionists Rising" and Grace's Dad, Scott Schara.

The American Physical Society presents itself as a nonprofit dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge. Its financial disclosures tell a larger story. With over $106 million in annual revenue and more than $313 million in accumulated assets, APS operates at the center of a permanent scientific infrastructure funded largely by government-backed research institutions. At the helm is Jonathan Bagger, a theoretical physicist whose career has spanned Johns Hopkins University, the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and the international accelerator network, including TRIUMF. These laboratories were not temporary research projects. They were built as permanent federal infrastructure, tracing their lineage to the Manhattan Project and later expanding during the Cold War under programs like the Strategic Defense Initiative.SLAC itself operates under the authority of the U.S. Department of Energy, part of a national laboratory system created to sustain high-energy physics capability across generations. Scientists move through these laboratories, into universities, and eventually into leadership roles within scientific governing bodies. APS sits above that system, publishing the journals, hosting the conferences, and formalizing the research produced by government-funded institutions. The story extends further back, to defense research networks that predate the Cold War, including scientists connected to early Marconi research efforts. These networks evolved over decades, forming a continuous institutional framework linking laboratories, universities, nonprofit scientific societies, and government agencies. This episode examines that framework. Not the discoveries themselves, but the infrastructure behind them. The laboratories that remained. The organizations that accumulated influence. And the nonprofit society at the center of the scientific establishment. Email: [email protected]
