------------------ 📣"Green policies" are devastating our farmers. We know because we talked to them personally - from the Netherlands to California. Now you can help us share their stories! 👉https://www.epochoriginal.com/nofarmersnofood
approximately 30 years ago the United
Nations implemented something called
Agenda 21 which is essentially their
master plan for Humanity the agenda for
the 21st century and this 100 yearlong
agenda of theirs it's broken down into
shorter 15 year long segments the first
15-year plan was called agenda 2015 or
the Millennium development goals and
then currently we are living in the
second 15-e plan the so-called agenda
2030 which at least according to un
documents is the agenda to trans form
our world for quote unquote sustainable
development and unbeknownst to many many
people for the past 10 or so odd years
now this broad agenda from the United
Nations has been trickling down and
getting implemented as concrete policies
right here in America and so using
things like The Endangered Species Act
wus the Waters of the US act the
Antiquities act as well as quite
literally billions of dollars in federal
money to either buy up land or to
convince land owners to place
conservation easements on their land so
it's technically still private but
you're just not allowed to develop it
using all these different methods the
government has been taking land out of
production in order to supposedly well
save the planet this is all part of the
Biden administration's broad plan to
place 30% of America's land and put it
completely out of production by the year
2030 this would mean that 30% of the
land would be placed into Federal
conservation and it would essentially be
idled there would be no grazing there
will be no farming no drilling there
will be no fishing no developing
basically just no human involvement and
while the current aim is to take 30% of
America's Land by the year 2030 once
that's actually achieved well the next
step will be to take 50% of America's
Land by the year 2050 it's sort of a
rolling project with the ultimate goal
being for the federal government to own
a majority of the land in America and to
make that land inaccessible to the
people in order to again save the planet
and while the people who live in the
cities in the urban centers they don't
really feel the effects of these
policies in a vis away well the people
who live in the countryside they do they
feel the encroachment of this federal
government agenda on a daily basis and
so while I was down in Texas I took the
opportunity to sit down and speak with
Mr Lauren Patterson he is a cattle
rancher as well as the president of the
New Mexico cattle growers association
and he broke down for us the very
specific methods that the government has
been using to lock up America's land the
corar devastating effects that that is
having on the ranchers and how
ultimately this will all lead to the
erosion of American freedom and so take
a super quick moment to smash those like
And subscribe buttons and take a listen
Lauren thank you so much for joining us
thank you for having me so can you sort
of give us a a picture of um of New
Mexico's cattle situation is it like be
predominantly big businesses or is it
small familyowned uh ranches can you can
you sort of it it's predominantly a
small family run business operations so
where the family is the main labor
source uh they're the management source
but uh they sweep up too so uh you know
um we do have some of the largest
ranches uh they're not really
conglomerates they're family ranches but
they're acreage wise they're some of the
largest in the nation cattle number wise
they're some of the largest in the
nation but uh but predominantly it's a
family F family atmosphere in our
industry but uh agriculture is bounces
between the second and third largest
industry in our state and uh livestock
production is the largest part of the
egg industry so you know you're here at
the 30 stop 30x30 Summit and I know that
over in New Mexico uh 35% of close to
35% of the land is owned federally 50%
of the land is owned privately and with
I guess the the missing chunk I guess
state and local government would own
that uh what's the situation in terms of
agenda 30x30 uh in New Mexico so it's
been a very rampant problem for for uh
New Mexico agriculture um and I say
agriculture because there's multiple
phases not just the livestock industry
that rely on that land um New Mexico is
largely uh marginal land it's not suited
for a plow it doesn't have irrigation so
grazing it is the best use grazing
Recreation but Recreation and grazing
can go hand in hand so so some of the
30x30 stuff is actually trying to take
the grazing out as a as a multiuse
purpose and um what we see is our tax
bases being deplenish in our rural
communities um because you take the
cattle away you take the tax away how's
the government doing it are just coming
in and just buying up lots that are for
sale both they're they're doing it they
they' past the land of enchantment fund
which is going to give them quite a bit
of money to purchase uh rural properties
put them in in uh conservation easements
those type of things but then also the
administrative State we're seeing more
and more
regulation uh our our animal numbers
continue to go down and down uh what we
allowed permitted to to operate on those
lands so and then also in New Mexico
we're a High Desert State and water is
life and if you don't have the water you
don't have the life so even even for our
livestock industry we're not uh as we
see our water being taken away from us
and and taken to uh the urban areas or
even just
conserved uh we lose that opportunity to
operate on those lands I can imagine the
the the land of enchantment fund you
mentioned can you sort of elaborate on
that for someone who might have never
heard of it before well so so in New
Mexico it's It's Kind of a Funny
situation we we the number one business
in New Mexico is petroleum we have some
of the the highest producing permium
Basin petroleum fields in the nation uh
35% of the state budget comes from those
oil
royalties um but they continue to push a
green agenda against the oil companies
the land of enchantment fund is that is
that federal funds coming to the state
and then the state is so it's both uh
the state is allocating those funds but
it also gets a federal match whether
it's through the inflation reduction act
or uh other conservation funds within
one of the ones we killed that would
have put money towards it was the
recovering America's Wildlife act you
know we kind of got that stopped and
that was going to put 92 million dollars
a year into New Mexico to actually buy
property mhm and and to be hon honest as
a Rancher as agriculture
businessmen and women we C we cannot
outbid the federal government when they
decide to buy a piece of property it's
going to leave agriculture production
all right I'd like to just pause here
for a super quick moment and introduce
the sponsor of today's episode by
showing you this little piece of money
or rather I should say that this is fake
money being printed into Oblivion by
those Geniuses over in Washington DC and
so before they completely obliterate
your life savings what I recommend you
to do is to convert that fake money into
real money which is physical gold and
silver and the best company to use is
the sponsor of today's episode American
Hartford gold who also happens to be my
own personal gold and silver bullan
dealer they have thousands of other five
star ratings across the country they
have an A+ rating with a Better Business
Bureau they ship quickly directly to
your doorstep their product listings are
awesome they're stacked with great
options of gold and silver bullion and
coins and they have amazing customer
service when you pick up the phone and
call them you feel good knowing you
support a company that supports the
truth getting out into the wider
American audience and so calling them up
is a no-rain but best of all if you tell
them that Roman sent you they will throw
in up to $5,000 worth of free silver
with your first purchase it's 866 242
2352 or you can simply text the word
Roman r m an Roman to
65532 of course all their details will
be down in the description box below and
now let's head on back to the studio
which endangered species are they using
predominantly in the State uh so there's
one huge one and it's been uh it's been
one that's been going on for we've been
fighting for 30 years now now and it's
the Mexican grey
wolf um we started out with they were
going to put out a population and the
the recovery goal was
129 well we're looking at over 300 head
of wolves now and they they will not
call it a recovered species they just
keep changing the goal post they also
keep expanding the recovery zone and
watch critical habitat so now 50% of New
Mexico the southern half is considered
critical habitat for the Mexican grey
wolf and so you
cannot uh in any way um harass those
animals uh I have to physically see that
animal attacking one of my
livestock before I can do anything about
it and then when we do have a loss due
to wolves um to get the federal
government to uh allocate money
for the recovery of that animals the
economic impact to a Rancher it's almost
impossible they keep changing the
standards of what is a confirmed wolf
kill well they only pay the confirmed
ones they don't pay the probable kills
and they don't uh they don't pay for
animals that the Wolves just stressed to
death MH which is they they kill for
sport and I hate to say that I mean but
until until the ranchers are are part of
the recovery system for that species
that species will never be safe you have
to bring the ranchers the people who
live in the communities in on those
recovery plans to to be successful the
second one that we're really seeing a
big uptick in is the Lesser prairie
chicken they've and that would affect
the Eastern third of the state and the
predominantly where are the majority of
our private land is um and so the Lesser
prairie chicken will drastically affect
grazing permits um management of those
permits so we're going to have to manage
around a
species that really has had a very very
low population since in since the
beginning of time there just has not
been a lot of lesser prair chickens in
our in our neck of the world just
because we don't have the water to
support a wild game F like that mhm um
so my problem with the Endangered
Species Act is very seldom do they have
a baseline population to work from they
just assume that the population was
better in the
past and that's not true and and of
course you'll you know you've heard
about the meadow jumping mouse and how
it affected one
family they have physically not seen
that Mouse yet
how how can you take away somebody's
livelihood um when the animals never
been
seen yeah that's shocking yeah isn't it
I mean if it happened in Central Park
would they close down Central Park are
you kidding me no they wouldn't you know
and so just to just to think that the
government has that power to do it and
they do it not by Congressional order
they're doing it through Bureau ratic
red type you know that was going to be
my next question let's say somebody
lives in the eastern part of New Mexico
and um you know they they have a nice
allotment of private land they have a
few a good amount of Acres how is their
life going to be specifically affected
with if the Lesser prairie chicken is U
you know found to be in the area well
first of all if you accidentally kill
one then suddenly you're uh you're going
to be fine you're going to have uh be
liable for the death of that anal you're
going to be fined and you might even see
jail time um and that if you
intentionally kill one if you don't
admit that they're there they're going
to you know they're going to tax you on
what you can do there or or regulate you
out of what you can do there and then of
course they're already wanting us to
file grazing management plans like which
pastures we'll graze where we'll rest
will we stay out of uh the the the
habitat and they want you to protect
that habitat even if you don't have any
prairy chickens MH and and that's that's
the issue and with New Mexico our rain
is spotty at best it's it you know we we
work within the confines of Mother
Nature and she doesn't always rain every
15 days she she may rain every 15 months
you know and so we we graze our lands
according to Mother Nature not according
to a to a handbook at the uh wildlife
services right and and the people on
that plot of land wouldn't be able to
graze because of the chicken is that
what you're saying yes and so you're
throwing another Kink into our
management and how we can best and most
efficiently produce food W that's that's
shocking I spoke to um you know actually
it's funny I didn't include it in the
documentary because it was a little bit
of an aside but both in California and
over in the Netherlands wolves were a
problem they were they were saying that
in environmentalists were introducing
wolves and it was just wrecking you know
wrecking their land they would
constantly find their animals either
really scared or or some of them dead
every once in a while and they would
just not be able to do anything about it
so it's sort of like the situation you
mentioned is the wolf the the the wolf
that's specific to your area is was that
like an actual indigenous species or was
it introduced by something it was an
indigenous species um for years but uh
as as the settling of the West happened
wolves became a problem they became a
nuisance animal and so those those
population numbers were actually killed
out by the government they paid a bounty
on wolves so that they could establish
tax bases in communities and and as we
you know as time went we we nearly
killed out the wolf in New Mexico by
by government uh support you know it and
now as we bring them back
in they're not the same species the
genetically these wolves are crossed
with with dogs they're not a pure
species anymore they're a hybrid and the
impact they're having environmentally is
Big because
cuz Evolution didn't happen with this
exact species they're a new hybrid and
so the population of even the wildlife
is being affected by these wolves
because
we haven't reached that balance yet but
the Killer part of the wolf is they
stress animals it's like having you know
it's like if you had a murderer walked
through a kindergarten
playground well the mothers are all
going to be scared right and and they're
going to be concerned and it's the same
thing with our cow herds if there's
babies and mothers there and wolves are
in the area those cattle are on high
alert alert if they're on high alert
they're not grazing they're not they're
not eating they're not gaining weight
and and that's the issue you see more
health problems with your animals you
see the stress body condition scores go
down which means they're not as fat
they're not as happy as they normally
would be they're not content and they're
not productive and that's the biggest
impact and and it and it's hard to
empirically show that right right but we
probably we probably have a 15 to 20%
decrease in production just with the
presence of the wolf in our herds that's
shocking it it's crazy it's but it's
it's a matter of fact you know um uh the
elk herds or the deer herds they can
semi migrate out of the area the cattle
herds are confined within a pasture and
they can't migrate they they get in the
corner and fight them off but it's it's
still an impact to so so far you
discussed how
uh the government is using cons
conservation easements how they're using
the Endangered Species Act what about
the water how are they using the water
to control so water and it's very
interesting and we have one fight that's
continuing to go through we have uh
Senator Martin Heinrich our own New
Mexico Senator they have the proposed uh
wild and Scenic River for the hila River
a big chunk of it but mainly what's that
doing it's kind of like the antiquity
act they're not picking the smallest
footb possible to
protect they're they're trying to
protect the entire River but there's
agriculture irrigation systems along
that River there's uh there's cattle
grazing there's all kinds of things
there's actually homes and and
Recreation going on along that River
that'll all be affected by it by that
designation and that heila River in the
place that they're calling wild incen it
it's going to let that agriculture water
700,000 acre feet of Agriculture water
roll off into the next state and then
we're not we're not going to have access
to it and in a state like New Mexico
that's a huge impact for our future not
just the present but the future so if
that designation goes into effect and
you are someone on right there on the
periphery of of the river you're using
it for for either you know Recreation or
for your own bus business what happens
on the day it gets that designation that
suddenly there's protections that are
involved just like The Endangered
Species Act they s that you know you're
going to have to protect the shorelines
of that River meaning that you can't let
your cattle go graze right up to the
River's Edge um and and actually I show
you that cattle grazing really helps The
River's Edge um because it promotes the
grass growth instead of erosion from but
uh
so all those things um every every bit
of water has to be accounted for on what
it's being used for and so so when we
when we get to that point it it just the
regulations get to be a red tape and a
management nightmare as much as anything
and you
know
why the the river is still wild and
Scenic just the way it is but people get
to live along it we still get to use it
we get to recreate on it and with that
designation you're just adding limits
that's all it does do do you feel like
some of these policies or maybe all the
policies are sort of like intellectual
policies from people who went to college
and they have this idea of how the world
should be and so they like they
Implement like oh this this River should
be protected in scenic but then you're
living there and you're like it's great
already we're using it you know it's
like this uh like a top down sort of an
intellectualist approach like they did
in the Soviet
and and that's that's it and largely we
and then of course we have a huge amount
of our uh government officials that have
no practical knowledge of Agriculture
and so they're they're two three
generations removed from even their
grandparents raising a garden or
something like that and so they don't
understand the burdens these ideas can
take or the limits they'll set on an
industry or a family or the growth of a
family and or the tax base of a small
community and which we have um and it's
it's unfortunate but but to be honest as
as president of New Mexico cattle
growers association that's a big part of
my job is to help legislators understand
the cattle cattle person's perspective
and how their policies will affect us
and to be honest I help with legislation
just as much as I fight against
legislation and it's the same way with
policies I have just as many meetings
with the forest service trying to
promote good management of the forest
reserves as I do fighting policy that
the forest service is using out of their
handbook and so it's a give and
take but you know that's part of our
federal government that's a great thing
about part of our federal government is
that we can be involved if we will now
if You' like to dig deeper into agenda
2030 its specific manifestations as well
as how it appears to really be putting
farmers and ranchers around the whole
world out of business while you're in
luck because my team and I spent the
better part of last year researching
traveling the globe and putting together
a phenomenal research package in the
form of a documentary called No Farmers
no food here's a
trailer food prices are sky rocketing
around the world and if you listen to
world leaders they'll tell you it's due
to climate change climate change is the
biggest threat for the human beings and
their solution might surprise you there
are 1,00 edible insect species on the
planet the European commission has
officially declared meal worms to be
food yes this is to a
food the people in charge have
determined that by switching our diets
to crickets ants and meal worms will be
able to stop temperatures from rising
lower the price of food and possibly to
even Save the
Planet it's never about Innovation it's
always about getting rid of farmers
Agenda 21 was meant to be the agenda for
the 21st century some of the goals sound
nice ending hunger who could possibly be
against ending hunger it requires total
power from the state I think it's a game
a lot of this came about early '70s
Clean Water Act Clean Air Act which were
good things but it's been abused from
what the original tip
is no maybe there not a farm anymore no
there's also not a farm anymore so all
these people shut down because of the
government policies yeah I'm the sixth
generation of farmer I'm the fourth
generation how many years have they
owned this PL land 40 years I think we'
last generation they're shutting down
the small and middle-sized family run
Farms we either own property or we are
property I don't think we can trust the
government anymore because they want the
land and our founding fathers understood
that the land would be distributed among
the people
so they could always control their
government right now things have uh
tripled as far as cost I think you're
going to see across the board higher
food prices has anybody been held
accountable for screwing up no as every
communist High into the last 100 years
has understood if you control the food
you control the people everything is
falling apart there is a shortage of
foods we're heading for a world food
crisis as we hear all the time do you
see any hope for the situation yeah we
have to continue fighting for for it no
Farmers no food they will know
[Music]
it if you'd like to check out that
awesome documentary as well as a

documentary right away I hope you check
it out took us a long time to put
together and we really dug deep and try
to well I believe successfully Expos

world why is getting accepted broadly by
the population as well as what can
actually be done to counter it and so
again that link is right there at the
