- 0:00Speaker 1: We have with this Bonnie Brady, and she's in charge
- 0:03Speaker 1: of she'll tell us her exact title, and she's in
- 0:08Speaker 1: charge of saving the coastlines because those windmills are destroying
- 0:13Speaker 1: the coastlines, they are destroying the fisheries, et cetera, et cetera,
- 0:19Speaker 1: they are creating a national security problem, and they're probably
- 0:25Speaker 1: double a triple the price of electricity.
- 0:27Speaker 2: We must stop destruction.
- 0:29Speaker 1: But whoever signed the contracts for the windmills, I'm sure
- 0:33Speaker 1: I got a big contribution.
- 0:35Speaker 2: To the political campaign? Who was that? John Well? I
- 0:38Speaker 2: don't know this breaking.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Bonnie Brady, give us a report and tell us. Tell
- 0:43Speaker 1: us your exact.
- 0:44Speaker 3: Title right now, Hi, John, Hello gang, I'm Bonnie Brady.
- 0:49Speaker 3: I am the policy director for the New England Fishermen
- 0:52Speaker 3: Stewardship Association. But we call ourselves NEPSA. And thank you
- 0:57Speaker 3: so much for having me twice. Is nice to be
- 1:00Speaker 3: thanks so much. I really actually appreciate, appreciated listening to
- 1:05Speaker 3: Administrator Loffler describe when she described farmers and how that
- 1:09Speaker 3: you wear many hats because fishermen are exactly like that.
- 1:13Speaker 3: And her office has tried quite hard to bring issues
- 1:17Speaker 3: of importance through the office of advocacy to the public
- 1:22Speaker 3: and too the administration. So we appreciate that. Unfortunately, I'm
- 1:25Speaker 3: in Connecticut for a fish meeting here at the New
- 1:28Speaker 3: England Fishery Management Council and mystic, but would love to
- 1:31Speaker 3: have her come out easton.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Money we don't have. Well, day we get to the point,
- 1:35Speaker 2: tell us about the damn windmills, and tell us who
- 1:38Speaker 2: caused it, well, and who's responsible.
- 1:42Speaker 1: Who signed the contract, and who got possibly possibly got
- 1:47Speaker 1: the political live contributions.
- 1:51Speaker 3: Well, I mean, for depending on which contract you're talking about,
- 1:54Speaker 3: if you're talking about it.
- 1:55Speaker 2: I'm worried about Long Island, where I have my summer hope.
- 1:58Speaker 3: Well exactly, Well, when that was pushed initially by Governor
- 2:02Speaker 3: Cuomo and then when he got out, we have a
- 2:05Speaker 3: Governor Hakel, but it with NICERTA, that's the New York
- 2:08Speaker 3: State Renewable Energy Development Group that does that. They approve that.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Well, okay, tell us how to harming the environment. Let's
- 2:15Speaker 1: get down to the fact. How do they hide in
- 2:17Speaker 1: the hurting the environment?
- 2:20Speaker 3: Driving the ocean floor with a sixty five hundred kilojewel
- 2:23Speaker 3: hammer is a really bad day if you're a whale.
- 2:25Speaker 3: And then they're basically blending the ocean floor, liquefying it
- 2:29Speaker 3: in order to drop these cables with three hundred and
- 2:31Speaker 3: forty five thousand volts in them. Again, not a good
- 2:34Speaker 3: thing if you live under the water.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Number two, how they how are they hurting me?
- 2:39Speaker 1: Fisheries?
- 2:39Speaker 3: The fishing well, fisheries have been decimated. We can't fish
- 2:44Speaker 3: in the areas because not only does the majority of
- 2:47Speaker 3: the gear that we use to catch those fish we
- 2:49Speaker 3: can catch a cable instead. But on top of that, radar, marine, radar,
- 2:54Speaker 3: all the radars don't work. We go in there, we
- 2:56Speaker 3: have a problem with the boat. Good luck to us.
- 2:58Speaker 3: Search and rescue helicopters can't come into the area. They
- 3:01Speaker 3: can't fly low enough, and they can't see if there's
- 3:04Speaker 3: fog or bad weather in order to be able to
- 3:07Speaker 3: help us.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Number three, how are they hurting national security?
- 3:12Speaker 3: Every way you can imagine nor three thousand miles out airport,
- 3:17Speaker 3: radar out to however many miles all of it, it
- 3:21Speaker 3: doesn't work. The windmills throw false targets and radar, so
- 3:26Speaker 3: when you're looking out with radar, which is a line
- 3:28Speaker 3: of sight, you can't tell what's real and what is
- 3:31Speaker 3: and We've got pictures of marine radar that looks like
- 3:33Speaker 3: spirograph number.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Four, number four.
- 3:37Speaker 1: How much are they going to increase the pressure of
- 3:40Speaker 1: electricity compared to what it is now?
- 3:43Speaker 3: Probably three to five times. But I got to go
- 3:45Speaker 3: back to national security. The FAA has not done the
- 3:48Speaker 3: determination of no hazard on every single turbine there right now,
- 3:52Speaker 3: they have four hundred and forty one turbines across five
- 3:55Speaker 3: projects they've consulted, and they've only done determination of no
- 3:58Speaker 3: hazard on four of them that I can find. And
- 4:01Speaker 3: I just found another document for twenty four for revolution
- 4:04Speaker 3: that is going to get someone killed.
- 4:07Speaker 2: Bonnie, Who can get rid of these? Who can get
- 4:10Speaker 2: rid of these? Who has to sign a document to
- 4:12Speaker 2: end this?
- 4:13Speaker 1: Well? President Trump is right on top of it, okay, Bonnie.
- 4:17Speaker 3: Well, I mean, basically, we have tried the Department of Defense.
- 4:21Speaker 3: They did not the prior administration that approved these things.
- 4:25Speaker 3: It doesn't appear in any of the documents I can find.
- 4:28Speaker 3: They did no DoD red teaming, They didn't do testing
- 4:31Speaker 3: for electromagnetic interference, they did none of it. They didn't
- 4:34Speaker 3: test for drones because we didn't even know about drones
- 4:37Speaker 3: except for what was zipping around New Jersey two years ago.
- 4:40Speaker 2: So Bonnie, we can is Bonnie, we can blame the
- 4:42Speaker 2: Democrats for this, am I correct, we can.
- 4:45Speaker 3: Definitely put the blame on the Biden administration that just
- 4:49Speaker 3: basically open Well.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Colmo started the whole thing. No, Andrew Clomo started.
- 4:53Speaker 3: The whole thing in New York. It was Andrew Crolomo.
- 4:55Speaker 3: It started to be the big thing.
- 4:56Speaker 2: That's what John's concerned about. Now.
- 4:59Speaker 1: In addition, now, now which country in Europe? That's the
- 5:04Speaker 1: countries are not supposed to get involved in these kinds
- 5:06Speaker 1: of projects. Which country in Europe you think is involved? Oh?
- 5:10Speaker 3: For for all these projects, Oh, we have an Equinor
- 5:13Speaker 3: sixty sixty one percent by the Kingdom of Denmark. We
- 5:17Speaker 3: have Orsted, which is fifty one percent by the I'm sorry,
- 5:21Speaker 3: Kingdom of Norway. For Equinor and Orsted Kingdom of Denmark.
- 5:26Speaker 3: We've got, you know, total energies, which thank god, President
- 5:29Speaker 3: Trump just bought back those leases and are putting them
- 5:32Speaker 3: into geothermal into natural gas instead. Thanks so much for that.
- 5:36Speaker 3: Next time you happen to anyone, happen.
- 5:38Speaker 1: In addition, tell us, after the project is finished, they
- 5:44Speaker 1: sell them off, the leasing companies and when when when
- 5:47Speaker 1: the blades fall off, who's responsible?
- 5:51Speaker 3: Oh, when the blades fall off, we're all the taxpayer
- 5:54Speaker 3: is going to be responsible. They're all limited liability corporations,
- 5:57Speaker 3: and they do the farm down, they build it.
- 6:00Speaker 2: The country.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Media like Norway outsmarted the the politicians that signed those contracts.
- 6:08Speaker 3: Look, you had you had governors up and down all
- 6:11Speaker 3: of the states since the two thousands when Corzine was
- 6:15Speaker 3: in charge of New Jersey talking about the green energy revolution.
- 6:19Speaker 3: They sold out the citizens of their states, and they
- 6:22Speaker 3: could actually have sold out Our national.
- 6:24Speaker 2: Securityis worked for Goldman Sachs is.
- 6:28Speaker 3: Exactly yes, And who got the contract Goldman Sacks owned eighteen.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Oh, we should go after Corsine. Nobody goes to Bonnie Brady.
- 6:42Speaker 4: Another major question, though, it's not everyone who has to
- 6:45Speaker 4: suffer from this. Remember when they were going to build
- 6:47Speaker 4: the wind farm off of Cape Cod and all the
- 6:49Speaker 4: liberals on Cape Cod with money objected because it would
- 6:53Speaker 4: block their beautiful view. So you know, one rule for
- 6:56Speaker 4: me and one for.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Kennedy. That was ted Teddy Kennedy said to ruin his view, right.
- 7:05Speaker 3: It wasn't just that, though, I know a lot of
- 7:06Speaker 3: people that fought like hell for Cape Win for years.
- 7:09Speaker 3: The documents were there. I gave some of the documents
- 7:11Speaker 3: because I was fighting Empire back then to the people
- 7:15Speaker 3: with the Protect Lantucket Sound all the same situations they
- 7:19Speaker 3: talked about the radar. Then there was a guy I
- 7:21Speaker 3: can't remember his name who was the father of modern radar.
- 7:24Speaker 3: He did a report saying don't do it. You can't see.
- 7:27Speaker 3: And we're talking not just for national security. You've got
- 7:31Speaker 3: pave pause off of Cape Cod that's part of NORAD
- 7:34Speaker 3: see thousands of miles in case something's incoming. Like I've
- 7:38Speaker 3: said before, Sweden, twelve out of thirteen offshore wind sits
- 7:41Speaker 3: they canceled because it would reduce the response time to
- 7:44Speaker 3: react from two minutes to sixty seconds when something's headed
- 7:47Speaker 3: toward theirs.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Fannie, I am happy that they're not putting them on
- 7:51Speaker 2: the Hudson River or the Harlem River there.
- 8:00Speaker 3: It's not only that they're only thirty eight percent of
- 8:04Speaker 3: what they say they're going to be. That was a
- 8:05Speaker 3: megawak project. You're only going to get three hundred and
- 8:08Speaker 3: eighty megawaks. You're going to get more in the wintertime
- 8:10Speaker 3: when we don't use it. Because on the East coast.
- 8:12Speaker 3: We use natural gas for our heat and less in
- 8:15Speaker 3: the summertime when we really do need it. This is
- 8:17Speaker 3: I used to call this the Emperor's new offshore wind
- 8:20Speaker 3: closed salesman. It's complete garbage from start to finish.
- 8:24Speaker 2: If we get President Trump to take them down, how
- 8:26Speaker 2: do they go down? Do you have to chop them down?
- 8:29Speaker 2: Do you have to cut? How do you get them
- 8:31Speaker 2: out of there?
- 8:32Speaker 3: You can use vibratory pile driving to basically shake them out.
- 8:35Speaker 3: And the cables there's copper in them. They're worth a
- 8:37Speaker 3: lot of money. I know because I met some guy
- 8:39Speaker 3: who worked for one of the companies. He said, no,
- 8:41Speaker 3: somebody would get that in a minute. There's a company
- 8:43Speaker 3: that did the Baltimore Bridge. I think they're called Resolved Marine.
- 8:48Speaker 3: They can take out anything.
- 8:49Speaker 2: They can take them out of my person to do it.
- 8:51Speaker 4: Bonnie Brady, maybe don Quixote had something, had the right
- 8:55Speaker 4: idea going after these windmills. Mine calls me, Bonnie Brady.
- 9:05Speaker 1: Thank you for everything you do and telling people the truth.
- 9:08Speaker 1: But you know you've got to tell you step by
- 9:11Speaker 1: step by step, step by step by step so people
- 9:15Speaker 1: could know it. But but you do God's work.
- 9:17Speaker 4: And there's a bunch of golden there's a bunch of
- 9:19Speaker 4: golden eagles.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Start.
