 1 in 70 Americans will need a blood transfusion this year. Almost none of them know they most likely can't choose the donor.In this episode, Stephanie Weidle speaks withLiz James, a pharmacist of over thirty years and founder of Blessed by His Blood, a member-owned cooperative that matches direct blood donations to patients who want to choose whose blood they receive.The conversation explores how three separate parties — your doctor, your hospital, and the blood bank holding their contract — each have to say yes before you can receive a directed donation, and how any one of them can quietly say no. If three people have to approve before you can choose your own donor, who is the system actually built for?We discuss: 👉 Why doctors often don’t know how to write the order 👉 What happens to blood after you give it away for free 👉 Why only 3% of Americans donate, and the number is falling 👉 The Texas bill that died twice one step from the finish line Chapters:01:29 — How Direct Donation Works, and Who's Blocking It07:18 — Why People Ask for Direct Donor Blood11:05 — Screening Questions and Shelf Life14:48 — Only 3% Donate: The Supply Problem17:01 — The $32 Billion Blood Industry23:51 — Bodily Autonomy and Informed Consent26:38 — Liz's Story: Leaving Pharmacy, Founding BBHBLearn more or become a member:https://www.blessedbyhisblood.comFollow Blessed by His Blood: X,Facebook——🎧 Listen to The Feds onSubstack & all other platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedom🇺🇸 Visit our Website: FedsForFreedom.org 🏃 Follow us on Instagram /X /Facebook:  @feds4freedomusa

The Fauci Diaries have been released—and beyond raising the question of why an 80-year-old man would keep a “diary,” let alone write it on a government device, they prompt further questions about what was really happening during COVID.In this episode,Stephanie Weidle speaks with author and Brownstone Institute president Jeffrey Tucker about the newly released Fauci Diaries, the ongoing COVID accountability battle, and the deeper institutional failures that shaped America’s response to the pandemic.👀 The conversation explores what the diaries may reveal about Anthony Fauci’s role in the COVID response, the unresolved questions surroundinggain-of-function research, and the broader network of public health, intelligence, and government officials involved in shaping the official narrative.Stephanie and Jeffrey discuss why so many Americans now believe “everything is a scam,” how trust in leadership collapsed during the COVID years and even till now, and why the country has still not seen the level of transparency or accountability that was promised.Topics include:👉 The Fauci Diaries and Senator Rand Paul’s investigation 👉 Gain-of-function research and lack of oversight 👉 Questions involving HHS, DOD, and intelligence officials👉 What key figures still have not been questioned  👉 Vaccine mandates and the trauma of government overreach 👉 Public distrust in institutions and leadership 👉 The missing COVID reckoning 👉 MAGA, MAHA, and the demand for transparency This episode asks a difficult but necessary question:What happens to a society when the people no longer trust their leaders?Follow Jeffrey: https://x.com/jeffreytucker   🎧Listen to The Feds on Substack & all other platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedom🇺🇸 Visit our Website: FedsForFreedom.org 🏃 Follow us on Instagram /X /Facebook:  @feds4freedomusa

In this episode ofThe Feds, recorded at FreedomFest 2026, we are joined by Spike Cohen, founder and president ofYou Are the Power, to discuss how citizens can fight government overreach at the state and local level.🔥 Spike explains that while Feds For Freedom focuses on protecting Americans from federal overreach from inside the system, You Are the Power works from the outside — taking on local and state abuses involving Child Protective Services, eminent domain, free speech violations, wrongful charges, and property rights. The conversation explores howgovernment incentives can distort justice, including concerns around CPS cases where families are wrongfully accused, children are removed from homes, and parents are forced into civil administrative systems instead of criminal courts. Spike also discusseseminent domain and how a power originally intended for limited public use has expanded into the taking of homes, farms, and businesses for projects like highways, tech parks, and data centers. 🎯This episode is a powerful reminder that freedom is not passive.

This week, investigative reporter Paul Thacker examines the lingering questions around gain-of-function research, the origins of COVID-19, NIH funding, and the role major scientific institutions played in shaping the public narrative during the pandemic.The conversation centers on Ralph Baric, a prominent coronavirus researcher at the University of North Carolina, whose work on engineered viruses connects to a larger network involving the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Peter Daszak and EcoHealth Alliance, Anthony Fauci, and U.S. government funding streams.Thacker explains why the definition of “gain-of-function” research became so fiercely contested, how terms like “biodefense” can mask the risks of dangerous pathogen experiments, and how early scientific papers and media coverage helped shut down discussion of the lab-leak hypothesis. The discussion also highlights the breakdown in congressional oversight and the perverse incentive structures driving biodefense research.👉 Ultimately, this episode goes far beyond COVID. It’s a story of power, money, censorship, and institutions that demand public trust while concealing uncomfortable truths. Has this flawed system been fixed—or is it poised to fuel the next national crisis? 👈 ✅ Check out Thacker’s Substack: https://substack.com/@disinformationchronicle✅ Read Thacker’s article on Vincent Munster: https://substack.com/home/post/p-196444138🎧 Listen to The Feds on Substack & all other platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedom🇺🇸 Visit our Website: FedsForFreedom.org 🏃 Follow us on Instagram / X / Facebook: @feds4freedomusa

🇺🇸 One question. Massive consequences.In this new Feds episode, Stephanie Weidle sits down with retired Vice Admiral William “Dean” Lee, currently on the Board of Advisors for STARRS, to address one critical question the military establishment must consider: Should vaccines be required for U.S. military personnel?💥 They examine the real-world fallout of recent mandate policies — including devastated careers, fractured morale, eroded trust in leadership, and lasting damage to military readiness. The conversation explores the difficult balance between national security, individual rights, informed consent, and institutional accountability — and why the lessons from the last four years must not be ignored if we want a strong military and country.👉 A must-listen for anyone concerned about protecting service members and preventing government overreach. Vice Admiral William “Dean” Lee entered the U.S. Coast Guard in 1981 and retired in 2016 after serving nearly 36 years as a commissioned officer in various assignments along the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf Coasts.  He concluded his career as Commander, Atlantic Area, serving as the operational commander for a force of 21,000 active personnel conducting all U.S. Coast Guard missions from the Rocky Mountains to the Arabian Gulf, spanning across five Coast Guard Districts and 40 states.Vice Admiral Lee is currently a senior fellow at the Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk VA.   As a private consultant who specializes in Corporate Leadership Development, he routinely speaks at seminars on the topics of leadership, ethics, and character development.  He is on the Board of Directors for Safe Boat International, the Board of Advisors for STARRS.US, and was recently selected by the Heritage Foundation as a member of their Military Advisory Panel.   Vice Admiral Lee’s most passionate and self-satisfying work is as a board member with HARP, a non-profit program designed to help victims recover from the ravages of drug addiction brought on by the current OPIOD/Fentanyl epidemic.  He generally spends one day per week in jail working with incarcerated addicts.   🎧 Listen to The Feds on Substack & all other platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedom🇺🇸 Visit our website: FedsForFreedom.org 🏃 Follow us on Instagram / X / Facebook:  @feds4freedomusa

What does it truly mean to protect life — and have we forgotten how? This week onThe Feds, we are airing a thought-provoking and deeply personal speech by Irene Mavrakakis, MD, recorded at the Medical Freedom and the Constitution Summit 2025. Dr. Mavrakakis, a physician and medical freedom advocate, challenges us to rethink the role of medicine, government, and society in safeguarding the most fundamental human right: the right to life.Drawing on powerful real-life stories from her medical career and unflinching honesty about her own experiences, Dr. Mavrakakis explores how far modern medicine and public policy have drifted from their original purpose. From the meaning of the Hippocratic Oath to the failures of informed consent, from debates on abortion, organ donation, and euthanasia to the emerging threat of AI and human identity, she asks the hard questions that most avoid — and demands that we redefine what it means to be human before it’s too late.Irene Mavrakakis, MD is a physician in a private practice and a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Surgery at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. She is the host of the podcast Liberty Speaks w/ Dr. Mav. She lectures on medical freedom and its Constitutional basis, and is the author of the Medical Freedom chapter in the book "A Gold New Deal."

n this powerful and eye-opening conversation, Stephanie Weidle interviewsEric Mühle, a former German Air Force parachute servicemember who spent 14 years in uniform — only to be stripped of everything when he refused the Covid vaccine.Eric shares his journey from serving in Afghanistan to returning home in 2020, where Germany had transformed into a fear-based, segregated society. Eric reveals how Germany became a modern authoritarian state: soldiers isolated, locked down, punished, stripped of pay, and kicked out — even in 2025. Doctors persecuted. Nurses dragged into court. Police thrown in prison. Courts acting as political weapons.Eric also discusses the rise of the Blue Light Family — a movement uniting police, firefighters, soldiers, nurses, and first responders who oppose medical tyranny. He talks about the growing Make Europe Healthy Again (MEHA) movement, inspired by MAHA in the United States, and why international alliances are critical for global freedom.This episode is a stark warning of how quickly a nation can slide back into authoritarianism — and a reminder thatfreedom is never guaranteed.Eric is currently a coach, speaker, and health consultant with a focus on hypnotherapy. Follow Eric: X:https://x.com/fit_health_eric?s=21 Telegram:https://t.me/fithealthericInstagram:https://instagram.com/fit_health_eric?igshid=MzMyNGUyNmU2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qrYoutube:https://youtube.com/@fit_health_eric?si=4G9T4_cS-7TXByzH 🎧Listen to The Feds onSubstack & all other platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedom🇺🇸Visit our Website:FedsForFreedom.org 🏃Follow us onInstagram /X /Facebook:  @feds4freedomusa

This week onThe Feds, we are joined by Meryl Nass, MD, founder and president of Door to Freedom, medical advisor to Children’s Health Defense, and host on CHD TV. Dr. Nass provides an in-depth analysis of two concerning provisions in the 2025 House Appropriations Bill: Sections 453 and 507.  Section 453 prohibits funding for timely updates to product labels and safety recommendations, a critical issue given that successful lawsuits against chemical giant Bayer have often relied on labeling disputes. Dr. Nass explains the far-reaching implications of this rider for public health and safety. Additionally, Dr. Nass examines Section 507, which restricts government funding for the implementation or further study of a January 2025 EPA report.

In this compelling episode, host Stephanie Weidle welcomes Trent McCotter, seasoned partner at Boyden Gray PLLC and head of its administrative-law practice. Trent previously served as Deputy Associate Attorney General of the United States and as an Assistant U.S. Attorney. Trent dives into the landmark settlement between Feds For Freedom (F4F) and the Department of Justice (DOJ), signed on August 7, 2025, following their challenge to the federal employee COVID-19 vaccine mandate issued on September 9, 2021. He recounts the lawsuit's timeline, from securing a pivotal January 2022 injunction that preserved over 400,000 federal jobs, to the recent agreement where the DOJ committed to actions like destroying certain vaccine status records (with opt-out options for those seeking discovery, such as employees facing ongoing retaliation, versus opt-in for those preferring a clean slate). Trent addresses whether this settlement implicitly acknowledges government overreach, contrasts negotiating with the Biden DOJ versus the incoming 2025 Trump DOJ, and speaks to critics who argue it falls short on accountability. He shares eye-opening discoveries from four years on the case, explains why his firm boldly took it on when others declined, and explores how this non-precedential win can still advance justice for others still seeking remediation.

In this gripping episode of The Feds, host Stephanie Weidle sits down with Kacy Dixon, a former military intelligence officer and JAG attorney, to unpack the ongoing legal and administrative challenges surrounding the reinstatement of military personnel impacted by COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Kacy reveals how refusal of vaccines, testing, and masking has created significant hurdles in the reinstatement process through the Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMR), where the work and burden of proof unfairly rests on service members. She discusses the broken religious accommodation process, marked by blanket denials during COVID that have set a troubling precedent for flu shot declinations, and shares insights from her candid conversations with senior Pentagon officials. Highlighting systemic flaws, including scrubbed records and "failure to promote" labels blocking reinstatement, Kacy proposes a dedicated BCMR subgroup to streamline COVID-related cases and advocates for retroactive severance pay through new appropriations as a fair resolution for all, including the military.Kacy emphasizes the urgent need for accountability, noting that some officials acted knowingly while others were negligent, yet all must face consequences to prevent future injustices. With no clear mechanism for accepting reinstatement offers and a military legal system that courts have deemed a "sham," this episode exposes critical gaps in the process and explores solutions that could restore trust and fairness. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the fight for justice, the complexities of military policy, and the path toward meaningful reform in this post-mandate era.Follow Kacy on X: @KacyJDixon Check out Feds For Freedom's SubstackListen to The Feds on all platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedomVisit our Website: FedsForFreedom.org Follow Feds For Freedom on Instagram/X (Twitter)/Facebook: @feds4freedomusa

This week, Sky Shook joins The Feds to discuss Lyme and other tick-borne illnesses that have caused much harm to the American population. Sky is a health consultant and strategist who has supported the healing efforts of patients with vector borne diseases, including Lyme disease, for more than two decades. He supports through advocacy, education, medical practice management and lobbying at the state and federal level.In this episode, we discuss why Sky started researching Lyme, and what he found helpful for his own wife who was struggling with a cascade of symptoms. Sky discusses that early treatment is the best, and for those who have chronic Lyme, it is important to look not just at the tick as the cause of illness, but at other toxins as contributors. We discuss the role of the government in tick-borne illnesses and the radical government transparency that is needed for a better understanding.Although not covered in this discussion, an important consideration with respect to tick-borne illness and our health generally may be the presence of parasites. There are many resources available to learn more about the need to address parasitic infection, which is frequently indicated in patients with difficult cases of tick-borne disease.Weston A.

State Department law enforcement officer Mark Pemberton joins The Feds this week, detailing the retaliation he has experienced over the past five years. In 2020, Mark refused to sign a statement agreeing to follow CDC guidance outside of work hours. In addition, citing the information given in the package insert, Mark also refused to take the provided COVID-19 tests. For that, in conjunction with the accusation that Mark was a white extremist due to his statement that he wanted to get married and have a family, Mark was labeled an “insider threat.” Five years later, his superiors are currently considering a 6-day suspension for Mark due to his declination of the COVID-19 testing. The government-wide weaponization of disciplinary and administrative processes must be addressed in this current Trump administration. Specifically in Mark’s case, the State Department’s Office of Special Investigations has a terrible reputation for using abusive administrative and disciplinary techniques for issues that should have resulted in an investigation, not in disciplinary action. Those who refused the COVID protocols, pushing back against the mandates, are still experiencing this weaponization firsthand.Check out Feds For Freedom's SubstackWatch and listen to The Feds on any of these platforms: https://taplink.cc/fedsforfreedomSupport the Work of Feds For Freedom https://www.fedsforfreedom.org/donateFollow Feds For Freedom on Social Media Instagram/X (Twitter)/Facebook: @feds4freedomusa
