“The Chairman says that ‘18 to 20-year-old individuals’ maturation of parts of their brains hasn’t occurred’—then why do we allow them to make the decision to fight for their country and to join the military?”
~ Congressman Thomas Massie
Congressman Thomas Massie is our Hero of the Week, and it is the third time the Solari Report has decided to honor him in this way. Not only is he working to promote local economies and empower local livestock farmers (for example, through the PRIME Act, see Solari interview with Pete Kennedy), but he is one of the leading voices to stop the push for laws that would make every American a potential “domestic terrorist” and thus remove the right to bear and own arms for good.
In a clever move during a recent congressional hearing, Rep. Thomas Massie read from a list of numerous cases where “concealed handgun permit holders have stopped likely mass public shootings.” The Crime Prevention Research Center published the list in 2015 and updated it in 2022; by reading it out loud in Congress, Rep. Massie successfully introduced it into the record. It has also been quoted on the Solari website.
Many reports of mass shooting events are later found to contain irreconcilable elements and “facts,” and often display the hallmarks of what looks like covert operations. It is timely, therefore, to be reminded of the numerous incidences when legal gun holders were able to thwart such sinister efforts.
If gun laws are put into place that prevent citizens from arming and defending themselves while the CIA and DOJ provide cover for drug gangs, the stage will be set for the expropriation of the country.
Congressman Massie is not letting this happen and is in a serious fight for the rights and liberties of Americans, all the while managing to remain polite and charming and never losing his “state of amusement.”

Mike Callicrate a beef producer from Nebraska comments on the Prime Act and his evaluation. https://nobull.mikecallicrate.com/2020/05/08/emergency-measures-to-protect-the-us-meat-supply-during-and-after-the-covid-19-pandemic/. This is complicated and the article lengthy. This is a part of the article. It is something to digest. IV. Current Legislation
The PRIME Act would repeal the federal ban on the sale of meat from custom exempt slaughterhouses. The bill returns control to the states to address the issue of meat processing. States would be able to permit producers to sell meat processed at a custom slaughterhouse within the state. States could choose to impose whatever conditions or limitations that best suited their particular agricultural, food system, and social conditions. These facilities meet state regulations as well as basic federal requirements. They are typically very small with few employees. The extensive and complicated federal regulations that apply to massive meatpacking facilities are neither needed nor appropriate for these operations, which might process as much meat in an entire year as the large facilities do in a single day. Their small scale also means that they are better able to provide necessary social distancing and sanitation measures while safely continuing operations.
A. The PRIME Act could help improve access and reduce meat prices for consumers in the coming months while providing income for small farmers and ranchers across the country. And it has many long-term benefits:
1. Help establish vital infrastructure in rural communities.
2. Improve farmer incomes and opportunities.
3. Increase consumer access to locally raised meats.
4. Reduce stress on animals from long-distance hauling.
5. Reduce transportation miles and greenhouse gases.
B. Small Plant Safety Under the PRIME Act.
Some believe the PRIME Act may not provide adequate food safety oversight to ensure only wholesome meat products reach consumers. Suggested amendments to fix this oversight while still keeping to the intent of the bill are:
1. Establish minimum qualifications and training for full-time on-site inspectors.
2. Enforce appropriate rules staging, slaughter, processing, and storage for small scale and low volume processors to maintain a high level of animal welfare and food and worker safety.
3. Require expanded labeling for resale meat, including “Processed and Inspected under emergency COVID-19 rules”.
4. Require purchasers to provide name and phone number or email to Custom Exempt seller to ensure traceability and contact in case of a recall. Wholesale purchasers will maintain their normal FDA approved recall response protocols to notify their customers.
5. Encourage custom-exempt plants to re-employ healthy and experienced workers and inspectors from closed plants
(expropriation of the country)…has already happened and TPTB are seldom even attempting to cover it any longer. Our best hope is self-destruction.
Dear Catherine, I would like to nominate a person for consideration as Hero of the Week. Bernadette Pajer is a mother of a vaccine injured child, an advocate for medical freedom of choice, an active member of Informed Choice Washington and the voice/producer/star of An Informed Life Radio (which is also on CHD TV). She moved to Tennessee about 9 months ago, but she hit the ground running and helped Senator Nicely to get the SB 2188 for over-the-counter ivermectin sales. She is also helping the Medical Freedom groups to uncover the financial incentives that have lead to the needless deaths in Tennessee. She embodies the power of the individual citizen to make a difference.
Will check her out. Thanks@
Thanks Catherine!
I agree with Marie…too bad he’s not my rep! I still believe I’m Blessed to live in the USA. Freedom isn’t free, and we are in a battle, but, “ain’t we having fun!”
An honorable man. Unfortunately, not my representative.
I just love this interview on The Brownstone Institute’s page with Congressman Massie from last month. He talked about COG during covid, our food supply and a lot more…. https://odysee.com/@brownstone:6/thomas-massie:75
