Watch on YouTube Matthew takes us on a very strange journey that is behind the now proven conspiracy theory of the Lab Leak, watch the fun of Fauci lying and realize that we live in a kingdom built on half-truths. He also takes us to war-torn Ukraine with some all too convenient sirens, and together we can all stare at our chemically laced rainbow reflections in the East Palestine waters. 

Gaslighting, a strange word for the word of the year, although there’s a good reason as to why Merriam-Webster chose it. Whether they meant it that way or not, we have seen a lot of gaslighting from media, government, and celebrities alike. Take note with us as we dive into the different stories that were true and turned out to be false, or straight up lies that perpetuated a narrative. Remember though, to the gaslighters it’s not about truth, but power. WATCH on YouTube: https://youtu.be/W0rlhMRawsY
