Brett's Sound of Freedom Notes

Sound of Freedom (2023)

Re: the media hysteria against the film, remember that the red pill initiative these days is squarely on the side of the right-wing. Telling these people that the establishment doesn’t want them to see this film is about as effective as it once was to tell young would-be radicals that the establishment doesn’t want them to experience the joys of sexual liberation or LSD gnosis.

Background

Director Alejandro Monteverde and his wife, the 1996 Miss USA winner, are both evidently devout Catholics.

There are a few eyebrow-raising items in Ali Landry Monteverde’s bio and filmography, but I do not believe that she’s an IMSA.

Monteverde perhaps got connected to Caviezel through his debut film, Bella (2006). Wikipedia:

Stephen McEveety, producer of Braveheart and The Passion of the Christ, consulted on the script; after the film was finished, he signed on as an executive producer to help market it.

Bella also came to the attention of George W. Bush, and Monteverde and his wife sat in Laura Bush’s private box to watch the State of the Union address in 2007. The movie apparently was taken to have anti-abortion messaging.

Production and Financing

With one exception (Below), there is no much susness at all among the 14 (!) producers on this film, although Renee Tab has some sus credits in her relatively short career.

Warren Ostergard has a few sus credits as well, including the apparent MK-film Fear Clinic (2014), starring Robert Englund, and perhaps 9/11, starring Charlie Sheen and Whoopi Goldberg.

John Paul DeJoria is the sus-ball, though. He and Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim funded much of the production. He told Cavuto on Fox News that he invested in it because he believes in its message and didn’t mind if it didn’t make a dime.

He has an interesting story. There’s a documentary about this life. He was homeless for a time, says he was taken in by the Hell’s Angels for a time. He has a few eyebrow-raising credits, like the climate hysteria documentary Racing Extinction (which has Elon Musk in it).

Billionaire entrepreneur John Paul DeJoria shares his best advice for managers

John Paul DeJoria and his wife Eloise with an unidentified representative of the Central Intelligence Agency in 1999.

There was a time in John Paul DeJoria's early 20s when he was living out of his car and picking up discarded bottles to cash in for a few bucks.

Today, he's 71 years old and has an estimated net worth of $2.9 billion, largely due to the success of his companies John Paul Mitchell Systems hair care and Patrón tequila.

After his businesses hit their stride in 1999, the CIA called DeJoria in to assist the organization with a management training program. He tells Business Insider that he has also taught his principles at the FBI.

His main message: Operate on fewer moving parts to move efficiently, and personally acknowledge your employees to create unity.

While DeJoria has admitted that it was difficult getting the CIA to reduce bureaucracy, he says his main approach to business leadership involves cutting out middle managers.

"A lot of people are just bogged down with middle management and don't give other managers the opportunity to make decisions," he says.

He explains that he also considers it crucial to keep praise public and criticism private.

"Whenever someone does a good job, praise them loudly in front of as many people, whether it's one person or 50, as you possibly can," he says. "Whenever you have to reprimand somebody, do it one-on-one behind closed doors so nobody hears you."

And after pointing out what they did wrong, DeJoria says, it is crucial to both explain to them how to do their task correctly and acknowledge something that they're doing right so that "they leave with a good feeling."

DeJoria says one of his favorite books is Dale Carnegie's 1936 classic "How to Win Friends & Influence People," which says the best leaders understand that "abilities wither under criticism" and "blossom under encouragement."

To DeJoria, managers need "to let their people know they're loved" if they want to have a fully engaged and motivated workforce.

Carlos Slim is one of the richest men in the world. His brother was a businessman and “worked on one of Mexico’s top intelligence agencies.” Slim has been linked to the cartels by at least one DEA agent, as revealed in wikileaks emails. He is tight with the Clintons and the Bidens. He’s the top shareholder—or recently was—of the New York Times. And he has contributed to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

From The Last American Vagabond (Dec. 3, 2020):

In Mexico, Gates’ influence is gaining via the WHO’s COVAX Facility and his friendship with Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim.

In August, Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard announced that Slim would finance production of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine in partnership with Argentina to be distributed across Latin America. AstraZeneca signed an agreement with the Carlos Slim Foundation, a Mexican non-profit organization ran by Carlos Slim, to contribute to the production and distribution of the potential COVID-19 vaccine, AZD1222. If clinical trials are successful, shipments are expected to begin in the first half of 2021.

Gates and Slim’s relationship appears to go back at least a decade, with Gates writing a blog titled “Mexico, Carlos Slim, and me” back in 2013. Gates fawns over Slim, comparing him to his own mentor Warren Buffet. Gates and Slim attended a series of events in Mexico organized by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT). Gates mentioned that him and Slim were slated to tour the new CIMMYT facilities which include a “gene bank, which holds the genetic diversity of 130,000 wheat and 28,000 maize varieties worldwide.” Although Gates claims that the data would be uploaded to databases that will be available to farmers everywhere, his involvement with such projects is worrisome given his attempts to dominant the global food supply via genetically engineered seeds.

This is evidenced by a 2013 report that Gates and Slim were partnering with CIMMYT to lead the “Green Revolution” in Mexico. The Foundations funded a $25 million research facility to develop “higher-yielding, more resilient wheat and maize varieties” using “state-of-the-art- biotechnology”.

Now, the two men are continuing their partnership by speeding up the production, development, and distribution of several COVID-19 vaccines intended for the Mexican people.

A few other people helped fund the film. John Couchis a former Vice President at Apple who is also a Christian. He once left Apple to run a Christian school and he founded “Eden Inspirations,” a “ministry” that seems more like a record label for Christian artists. Suspiciously, he was also the CEO of the biotech firm DoubleTwist, which was involved in the human genome project and in synthesizing DNA.

Funding was also provided by Andrew McCubbins, a billionaire who was part of Ballard’s Operation Underground Railroad organization and who was convicted of Medicare fraud. He frequently bragged about training with the Navy Seals and generally larping as a special ops guy.

He invested in the film because he hoped Sound of Freedom would "make people vote in a way that would help protect trafficked children," he said. McCubbins has also accompanied Operation Underground Railroad and two related nonprofits on 22 sting operations to catch human traffickers, he told Insider.

McCubbins, in turn was friends with Tony Robbins, who also helped finance the project.

Greg Reese criticizes Angel Studio for sending people to Clinton- and Podesta-linked “anti-human trafficking” organizations.

ICMEC (International Center for Missing and Exploited Children) was launched by Hillary Clinton and Tony Blair, with Richard Branson providing major funding. Clintons also involved with Polaris Project and other initiatives allegedly started to combat human trafficking.

Podesta Group is PR agency for Amber Ready. On the board of Amber Ready is Clinton ally who was arrested for child trafficking. The Podestas, of course, are now infamous for their Pizzagate ties, including the sick child torture and rape art they patronize.

Consider too a studio (Angel Studios) founded by five Mormons, four of them brothers— Neal Harmon, Jeffrey Harmon, Daniel Harmon, Jordan Harmon, and Benton Crane—bought the distribution rights to the film after Walt Disney (which had inherited it when it purchased Fox’s Latin American subsidiary) shelved it. It is no secret that a hugely disproportionate number of Mormons work for the CIA, in part because they already know a second language and have learned how to operate in a foreign country.

Caviezel

One of Caviezel’s credits is for my favorite episode of The Wonder Years. He plays the high school basketball phenom. Caviezel at one point had ambitions of becoming a professional basketball player, which he says were dashed when he faced John Stockton in scrimmages at Gonzaga University. And Stockton, like his character in Wonder Years, was a point guard). This is weird because that’s basically what happens to his character in the episode—an episode that I enjoy to this day in part because it vindicates the father figure as the “true hero,” over and above celebrities and sports stars. Watching it again, I noted that Caviezel wears the number 11, the number of magic, which adds to the intrigue around life and art paralleling each other.

Caviezel also has a small role as a basketball player in William Friedkin’s Blue Chips (1994). And Blue Chips is another basketball movie involving a feedback loop between art and life. For example, Shaquille O’Neal plays one of the college players paid to play, in violation of NCAA rules, and it was revealed only more recently that he was paid to play at LSU. Rick Pitino makes a cameo as a college coach, and Pitino has since been sanctioned for all manner of NCAA violations. Jerry Tarkanian—similar story. NBA star Penny Hardaway also stars in the film, and just last month he was suspended for three games as the Memphis head coach for recruiting violations.

In that movie, the head coach, played by Nick Nolte, effectively sells his soul for success, and in the very moment where he realizes what he’s done, he’s framed covering one of his eyes. He then immediately goes to the dorm room of a player that he just found out shaved points a few years back, and on the whiteboard outside his dorm room it reads, “Club Hollywood.”

Caviezel has done some photo shoots where he is without a doubt doing the one-eye pose.

Caviezel was trained by deep state entertainment industry handler Harley Pasternak for the movie Angel Eyes (2001), in which he co-stars with Jennifer Lopez, who was also trained by Pasternak. Caviezel plays a man who has lost part of his memory following a traumatic car accident. He wanders around Chicago in a semi-trance doing good deeds.

In Unknown (2006), Caviezel plays one of five men who “wake up in a locked-down warehouse with no memory of who they are.”

Caviezel starred in the reboot of the TV show The Prisoner.

Plays a Patriot-movement terrorist in mega-sus Tony Scott’s Déjà Vu (2006), a film—like most of Scott’s films—made in collaboration with the Department of Defense and, I suspect, ATF. Caviezel’s character looks to me like a sheep-dipped Manchurian candidate type. Caviezel says (in Jordan Peterson interview?) that producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Tony Scott were giving him videos from the FBI and ATF on serial killers and terrorists, to help reinforce “the profile” invented by the Feds.

He's in another deep state thriller, High Crimes, starring Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman, and written by sus-ball Yuri Zeltser, whom I discussed a bit in my Bad Dreams episode. Caviezel plays a former covert operative, living under an assumed name, who turns out to be a ruthless killer.

Frequency (2000), in which he stars, also treats the theme of time travel, like Déjà vu.

His performance in The Thin Red Line mesmerized me when I saw it in the theater.

Ballard

Ballard, a Mormon and “former” CIA operative, has recently left the two anti-trafficking organizations he helped run as CEO and is reportedly starting a new organization.

Movie

The opening sequence, involving the pedophile bust, is full of deliberate Monarch references. The child porn website he’s surfing has as its logo a downward-pointing triangle inside of which is a butterfly. The pedo has butterflies on his wall. Later, when Ballard is in his kitchen, there’s another yellow butterfly behind him. He calls the trip to South America to abuse children the “butterfly cruise.” When they raid his lair, there are dolls and mannequins everywhere—and this is never explained in any way.

Note too that Ballard and the pedo meet in a public area next to a children’s puppet theater.

Miguel’s pedo-assigned name is “Teddy Bear.” (Think about the last scene of Eyes Wide Shut, with its endless occult and Monarch references: there’s an entire aisle of teddy bears.)

There are a few other Monarch-related details later in the film. There are roses on the wallpaper where little girls are being pimped to pedos. The victims are branded.

Shipping container scenario, as People points out, was not part of the child trafficking operation Ballard helped break up. This would be an irrelevant piece of creative license—and it would make no sense for People to point this out—except that it is indeed a “dog whistle” to pedophocracy Noticers aware that shipping containers are used in elite child trafficking, as Mouthy Buddha’s “Art in Embassies” installment in his “Elite Human Trafficking” series reveals.

Also, Caviezel’s (allegedly improvised) line referencing Matthew 18: 6/Mark 9:42 (“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea”) is also a dog whistle. Alex Jones and other Christians who attack the pedophocracy not only frequently quote this but also misquote it exactly like Caviezel, substituting for “Whoever causes one of these little ones…to sin” to “Whoever harms one of these little ones”—which is not really out of step with the correct version in the context of pedophilia, since abused children are commonly corrupted into the practice themselves.

What is with the pedo writer’s nom de plume, “Apollodorus”? The title of the book is “Genghis Amore.”

A couple of lines in Caviezel’s personal statement during the end credits are worth some examination. He says, supposedly quoting Steve Jobs, “The most powerful person in the world is the storyteller,” and he repeats the line later. The enthymeme of this statement is that all the world’s a stage; that is, “When all the world’s a stage, the storyteller is the most powerful person in the world.” Is Caviezel’s life an act?

He speaks of “paying it forward” in the statement. He’s in an ostensibly wholesome, do-gooder movie titled Pay It Forward, starring Kevin Spacey.

So What Is the Psyop?

National File smells a psyop and diagnoses it thus: “Reenergizing the Q psyop may have been Slim’s reason for founding [funding] the Sound of Freedom.”

In some way, it does appear to be a case of controlled opposition.

Movie crafted so as to make hysterical left-wing media response look crazy to normie conservatives who see the movie. But Caviezel adrenochrome talk seems designed to make the supporters of the film seem crazy to normies and the left.

Vox: movie more dangerous than human trafficking.
