An update on Hal Turner

I thought I would bring an update on the situation of Hal Turner, who has had a second major heart attack.

Listening to his radio show from today he has shown himself too be a better person than I thought he was 

I Chose to Sign Out of Hospital

 
 

Hal Turner,

25 October, 2020

This afternoon I chose to sign out of the hospital.  They told me it was a very dangerous decision, and urged me to remain for observation until tomorrow morning.  I left anyway.

I did, in fact, suffer ANOTHER myocardial Infarction heart attack. A myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when a portion of the heart is deprived of oxygen due to blockage of a coronary artery. Coronary arteries supply the heart muscle (myocardium) with oxygenated blood. Without oxygen, muscle cells served by the blocked artery begin to die (infarct).

In order to confirm a heart attack, Doctors test blood for the presence of something called Troponin.  Troponins are a group of proteins found in skeletal and heart (cardiac) muscle fibers that regulate muscular contraction. Troponin tests measure the level of cardiac-specific troponin in the blood to help detect heart injury. Normally, a person will have a zero reading.  Yesterday, my Troponins levels went from 2.99 to 8 to 11 to 17 then to 23, confirming the death of cardiac cells.

Because the reading kept increasing hours apart from each prior test, the damage to my heart was ongoing. So I ask the Doc, what has to be done.  He says, "Cardiac Catheterization" and I replied that I'd undergone one 17 months ago, and got thru it fine, and said "let's do it."  To which he replied, "well, were going wait until Monday."

He must have seen the INSTANT pissed-off look on my face because he asked "What?"  I replied, you know Doc, you're starting to sound like a fucking used car salesman.  Bait me with one thing, then switch to another."  He asked "What do you mean?" I replied "You just told me I'm in real trouble and the only way to find out what's wrong is go in, right?"  He answered "Yes." Then you tell me it's so bad that . . .  what . . .  I can wait until Monday?"  "What kind of fucking logic is that?  I'm not stupid Doc.  Stop treating me as if I'm an idiot."  

He seemed quite taken aback that I talked to him that way.  He replied, OK, I'll call the staff in and we'll do it today.

They performed a cardiac catheterization, where they inserted a small camera into an artery at my right groin.  Once they got the camera to my heart, they told me the trouble was instantly clear:  One of my cardiac by-passes, which were installed just 17 months ago, (the one handling the left circumflex coronary artery) had completely clogged with blood clots and plaque.  

They saw that the reason surgeons had bypassed the left circumflex artery originally was because it had a serious blockage at the mouth of that artery.   So what they did -- and this was EXTREMELY DANGEROUS -- was insert a stent over that blockage to re-open my original (natural  . . . the one I was born with) left circumflex artery.

The reason this is so dangerous is because by placing the stent on top of the blockage which was so near the mouth of that artery, it was possible a chunk would break loose, and hurl itself into my heart, or lung, or brain, killing me.

Immediately after the stent was installed, I went into Ventricular tachycardia.  Something went wrong. 

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a fast, abnormal heart rate. It starts in your heart's lower chambers, called the ventricles. VT is defined as 3 or more heartbeats in a row, at a rate of more than 100 beats a minute. If VT lasts for more than a few seconds at a time, it can become life-threatening.

I was able to draw breath in, but not in sufficient quantity to survive.  I felt and KNEW I was dying right there in front of them.  Let me tell you, THAT is a feeling any person will know, immediately,  I've never experienced almost dying before . . . but I knew exactly what was happening right then and there.

Docs administered clot busters and other meds.  The breathing got easier.  In a few minutes, I felt washed out and totally tired, but I wasn't dying.  Off to recovery I went.

Overnight was uneventful except for the friggin machines beeping every five seconds, that kept me awake most of the night.

Today, they drew more blood and the test results were all good.

BP 123/77  Pulse 84  Blood Oxygen Saturation 97%

 

I shared a hospital room with some guy who was very old and frail.,  He could not get up to go to the bathroom.  So every time he had to crap, he used a bed pan.  The whole room stunk.

The first time, I got up and walked out into the hallway.

The second time I was just too tired.

The third time, I'd had it.  I told the nurses to make up the "Leave against medical advice" and I left.

If I'm going to die, it won't be while I'm smelling some other guys shit.  I'll die at home with my family around me.

Now, I don't feel as though I'm dying.   Now that I I actually KNOW what dying feels like . . . . and there's no doubt about it when it's happening . . . Then I'll head out to a local hospital.

Before I left, I asked the doctor "How is it that I could have accumulated all this plaque and blood clots in the replacement artery in only 17 months?  What am I doing that would cause that?"  His answer: Stop eating fast food.

He didn't mention anything else.  Didn't talk about cholesterol, triglycerides, weight ...... just "stop eating fast food."

I thought you'd find that interesting.

I'm gonna rest now.  I'm really tired.

Listen to his radio show today HERE

I got a good night's sleep last night.  I woke up!  Thank You Almighty God!

It may sound corny, but there was a real question in my mind as to whether or not I was going to wake up today.  I actually wondered if the reason I was home early (against medical advice) was a small gift of time from God for me to say Good-bye to my wife, son, and mom.  Believe it or not, I was actually afraid to go to sleep last night for fear I wan't going to wake up.

This new incident with my heart was a VERY big deal.  A SECOND heart attack just 17 months after the first heart attack and quadruple cardiac artery bypass surgery?  It's almost unheard of.  But it happened to me.

Blood clots filled one of the bypasses (left circumflex) and stopped the blood flow to a big part of my heart.

I knew something was wrong.  I had the sensation of a leak a few weeks ago.  Everyone told me I was nuts.  They said if I had a leak, I'd have been dead already.  It was all in my head, they said.

Yea.  right.  

When Docs did the second cardiac catheterization and found the bypass was blocked, they inserted a stent into my original circumflex artery to re-open it 100%.  But it was super dangerous to do that because the type of blockage in that original artery was such that a stent could cause part of the blockage to break off and travel into my heart, lung, or brain and kill me.

In fact, it was just moments after the stent was placed that my heart went into Ventricular tachycardia.  Something had gone VERY wrong.

It was a horrifying feeling to breath in, but feel as though I was not getting enough air.   So I breathed faster, still not enough.  I broke out in a profuse sweat, tried to breathe deeper but couldn't.

The surgical team called for the "Fast Response Team" . . I was getting worse, very fast.

The PA system in the hospital "Fast Response Team to Cath Lab ...whatever number"   OMG, that's for me.

They took a snap x-ray of my chest - no film, just a digital x-ray which popped right up on the computer screen.  No fluid collecting my lungs.  No immediately visible clot.  So WHY was I going downhill in front of their eyes?

Doctors of every age, every race, both sexes, firing off thoughts to each other in rapid succession.  On-the-spot consultations, decades of friggin experience at one of the best hospitals in the New York City/ northern New Jersey region.  An absolutely terrific hospital, all coming to bear on . . . . me.

They gave me nitroglycerin to at least relax my blood vessels so if it was a flow problem, that would ease it and give them time.  They shot me full of blood thinners for the same reason.

Whatever they did, things started to get better.  My breathing eased.  My color returned.  My sweating stopped.

WOW.  That was effin scary.   I mean actually scary.

I had been dying right then and there.  I knew it.  Doctors knew it.  Nurses knew it.

I'm 58 years old this isn't supposed to happen to guys my age.  Well, it did.

So I go to sleep as best as possible given the beeps, blips, and buzzes of the equipment in the room

The next day, still OK, but the guy in the bed next to me, an old timer, couldn't use the toilet and every time he had to crap, he used a bed pan.  The stink.  Uhhhhhhhh.

So yesterday afternoon, after his third bout of crap that day, I left the hospital A.M.A.

I got home and wondered if I made the big mistake everyone told me I was making?

I prayed earnestly last night.  I mean, I REALLY prayed.  On my knees.

I repented  the sins I've committed.  

I didn't pray for life, or for health.  I REPENTED.  I earnestly apologized to God for the sins I committed and asked Him to forgive me.

I'm crying right now just writing this because I was so earnest; truly sorry for the sins I've committed.

And I am.

I went to sleep around 8:30 last night.  Woke up around 11.  Went right back to sleep, woke up around 2:25.  Went right back and woke up around 4:40.  Went right back and now, around 8:15,. I'm up.

Alive.  

Wow.

This was a big, BIG deal.   Very serious.  

I went from being a reasonably productive, reasonably healthy 58 year old, to a literally dying weakling within seconds.

Life is truly a gift.  I took it for granted for a long time.  No more.

Thank you Almighty God YHVH for this chance at life again.

Amen

Hal Turner: "From 0430 today; symptoms of heart attack again"

 Many will know that Hal Turner had a heart attack and a quadruple heart bypass last year.  He has had another heart attack and it does not look so good for him.

I have been able to see beyond his faults and his political views (which are far from own) to appreciate much of what he has had to offer. He has played a role in my being able to see beyond the MSM headlines and to transcend ideological differences.

I wish him well.

Hal Turner has had a heart attack

UPDATE 4:30PM EDT 10/24/2020

Hello all, Mike here again.  My mom and I just got back from the hospital.  Overnight, my dad's Troponin level increased from 8.99 to 11, and then later to 17 early this morning.  By around 10am the level had increased again to about 23.  Doctors performed a cardiac catheterization to take a look inside his veins and arteries.  During the procedure, doctors found a 99% blockage due to blood clots in his Left Circumflex artery, one of the arteries previously repaired during his quadruple bypass surgery in April of last year.  They were able to insert a stent, which seems to have restored blood flow.  Currently his vitals still all look "rock solid," to quote one nurse.  However, he is sporadically having some difficulty breathing.  This could be because of the previously restricted blood flow--we don't know yet.  He's currently on oxygen and breathing on his own.  All in all, he seems to be in stable condition but very tired.  The hospital will be keeping him today as well.  More updates as we receive them.  

We've received many well wishes in the comments--though I can't respond individually, I want to thank everyone for your ongoing support, thoughts, and prayers.  Again, please continue to keep my father in your prayers.

 

UPDATE 4:45PM EDT 10/23/2020

We just received an update on Hal's condition.  His Troponin level has increased from 2.99 to 8.99.  His condition is being categorized as a NSTEMI (Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction).  In other words, he's had another heart attack.  We will continue to keep you posted about Hal's condition.

Again, we ask that you please keep Hal in your prayers.

 

UPDATE 11:30AM EDT 10/23/2020

This is Mike, Hal's son.  Shortly after posting this article, my dad asked me to take him to the Emergency Room.  I just got back.  My dad is being admitted and will likely be released tomorrow.  Preliminary blood tests are showing a Troponin level of 2.99 -- The last time he had this level was in April of 2019 when he had a myocardial infarction (MI) and subsequently underwent quadruple bypass surgery.  It is currently unclear as to whether or not my dad actually had a heart attack today, but a troponin level of 2.99 is an indication that the heart muscle has been under immense stress and has suffered some damage.  Right now he is awake, alert, and his vitals all look good.  He will shortly be transferred from the Emergency Room to the Telemetry Department of the hospital for further monitoring and evaluation.

I will post updates as they become available.  Unfortunately, the Hal Turner Show will not air live tonight--I will air an archive of last night's show instead.

Please keep my dad in your prayers.

Original Post

From about 4:30 this morning I began having significant PAIN in my chest, extending to my arm.  Shortness of breath. Weakness in affected side arm muscles. Profuse sweating. Except ALL these symptoms on on the wrong side; they're on my right side.

I'm wondering if a blood clot hit my lung?  Never had a blood clot before, but the symptoms all fit.

It is now 0738 and I DO NOT want to go to the hospital. The pain and symptoms are not going away.  3+ hours now.

Hal Turner's heart attack

Hal Turner had a heart attack and Quadruple By-Pass Surgery

It would be highly remiss of me not to point out that controversial, right-wing broadcasterHal Turner, suffered a Myocardial Infarction heart attack on April 20, and underwent Quadruple By-Pass Surgery last Thursday.

However, within days he was back in front of the microphone even though he was still weak and shaky.

Obviously, I don't agree with many of his political views but have been moved to use some of the information he brings to the table on geopolitical hotspots.

In this broadcast he shows some of his humanity which is not always evident in his detractors.

The Saudi purge and the Las Vegas shooting

Reflections and speculation on the Saudi connection with the Las Vegas shooting
Seemorerocks

You will all probably be aware that my energies have been failing in recent times. I still give most of my available energy to this endeavour of over 6 years.

First-and-foremost has been and will be climate disruption and the move towards, at the very least the near-term ending of human civilisation, more probably the extinction of all species on the planet, first and foremost the smart ape, homo sapiens.

Gaia (the "tough old bitch" as James Lovelock once called Her) is hitting back with full force and maximum speed.  However shocking Gaia cannot keep up with the actions of human beings that are doing everything possible to hasten this process - first by denying any possibility of mitigating or slowing down the process - not least by ensuring that the satellites that measure Arctic ice go dark.

Not only that but the Empire is ensuring that it doubles down on the very process that is leading to our imminent demise. We are also hell-bent on moving towards a war that may be over in an hour-and-a-half whereby the survivors will wish they hadn't.

The United States is going down as a world power and may well, especially under its incumbent and the Deep State that pulls the strings, decide to take the rest of the world with them thereby forestalling the slower process of Abrupt Climate Change.

All the information that is needed to make up one's mind about this is out there. If anyone has failed to be convinced by now then they are likely never get it.

Which just leaves the process of chronicling our Demise.

For that we do not need every headline that is written about this - especially the half-truths of the mass media and scientists too frightened of speaking the whole truth (often to themselves)

For that reason I am changing my emphasis a little, to deal with all the shenanigans that goes with the process of Collapse and the insanity of politics and geopolitics as they are now.

Quite simply put we are moving to war.

It is this that concerns me. 

The Other is simply a given for me.

THE PURGE IN SAUDI ARABIA AND THREAT OF WAR

A priority for me over recent days has been to try and make sense of overlapping events in the Middle East.

First-and-foremost we have the coup that turns out to be a purge in Riyadh which coincided with the unbelievable spectacle of the Prime Minister of Lebanon, Saad Hariri reading out a statement of resignation over Arab TV and then, for now, disappearing.

It is amazing to see the richest man in Saudi Arabia, Prince Alwaheed bin Talal, who just two weeks ago was feted on American cable TV just two weeks ago now under arrest and held in a luxury hotel and forced to sleep on a mattress on the floor while his billions in assets have been seized by the Saudi state.

If you think that this is a "corruption scandal" then I think I can arrange a bridge to sell you!

The details of all this are obscure, not least because everyone is lying and the international media has, for all intents and purposes has blacked out the story.

So we are left to put together the various pieces - and this is something, amidst all the 'click-bait' and misinformation nonsense - something the alternative media and social media community does very well

It turns out that there is some very strange links between Prince bin - Talal who has major stakes in US-based businesses such as Fox News and recent events in the United States.

It turns out, for instance, that he owns the Four Season Hotel that sits on top of the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas, well-known because of the mass shooting in Las Vegas last month.

CONCERNING 'WHITE SUPREMACIST" HAL TURNER

Readers of this blog will be more than aware that from time-to-time I use material from the Hal Turner Show and on occasion (mostly on Facebook) I get attacked for using the material. Usually I am pointed to a Wikipedia item which says clearly that Hal Turner is a "white-supremacist", "neo-nazi".

As if that should be enough to warn one off.

If you are prone to taking Wikipedia or Snopes at face value I suggest you look at the Wikepedia item on Guy McPherson to see what unwarranted personal attack means.

Just in the last 24 hours our very sane Deputy Prime Minister, Winston Peters, has been denounced in an scurrilous article in the Washington Post as "far-Right".

It is partially for that reason that I rarely reject material, even from the likes of Alex Jones who produces mostly fake news but occasionally comes out with a gem that you will not find elsewhere.

I try to avoid taking an ideological point-of-view and to use my own process of deductive logic to try and get as close to the truth as I can.

It is for this reason that I sometime use the material of Mr. Turner because he comes often comes up with intelligence that is hard to find elsewhere.

Listening to Mr. Turner his mind-boggling biases are clear to see but, as I have pointed out bias is NOT the same thing as disinformation.



SPECULATION ON THE SAUDI PURGE AND THE LAS VEGAS ATTACKS

That brings me back to events in Saudi and the Las Vegas shooting.

I listened to Hal Turner's radio program yesterday and found it, I must admit, quite impressive.  He engaged in what he admitted several times is speculation which is really is a best guess based on intelligence passed on to him by his former colleagues in US Intelligence.

If you think after this that he is just making the whole thing up simply forget it and move on to something else.

In essence he is postulating (not exactly, alleging) that the Las Vegas shorting was an arm deal with terrorists involving Stephen Paddock that went badly wrong. Not only that but the shooting was a false flag to hide the reality of what was essentially an assassination attempt on King Salman by rogue elements in the Saudi royal family.  He contends that Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner travelled to Saudi Arabia to warn (possibly threaten the Saudis. The inexplicable purge of some of the richest and powerful men in the world came just 72 hours later.

What is of course missing from this is the geopolitics.

Turner is a Donald Trump man through-and-through and he takes for granted the anti-Iranian rhetoric about the missile attack and he completely fails to leave out of the picture the situation relating to Lebanon and the threats that have been made

For all that I think that he is talking about a particular aspects and I do not think you have to agree with someone totally to listen to what he is saying with a critical ear.

I think that, in the total absence of reliable information his hypothesis (replicated elsewhere) has some merit so suggest you listen to the following two segments ( the first couple of minutes are missing)

Part one

Part two

A WARNING OF A FALSE FLAG AND AN FBI ARREST

In the second segment he talks about "Zac" who rang into the Alex Jones Show warning of a Yemeni-based False Flag by rogue elements in the CIA.




2 hours later he was picked up and detained by the FBI

The details (for your interest) are here:

Former Intelligence Operative Is “Picked Up” By The FBI After Warning About A False Flag Terror Attack Inside The United States

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/u-s-national-news/1559-former-intelligence-operative-is-picked-up-by-the-fbi-after-warning-about-a-false-flag-terror-attack-inside-the-united-states

A former military and intelligence operative who called into The Alex Jones Show on numerous occasions has been picked up by the FBI after his shocking public warning that the United States was about to fall victim to a false flag terror attack, according to a report by Infowars.com.

The caller, identified only as Zach, warned yesterday that the Saudi civil war was about to “spill over” into terror attacks within the United States that would be blamed on Yemeni nationals but actually carried out by deep state agents within the CIA.

“There are going to be attacks, by what will be described as Yemeni nationals in the United States but I’m just going to put this out there, these are CIA operatives, CIA proxies who are rogue at this point because their entire infrastructure has been dissolved by the Trump Administration,” the source warned.

“I’m just going to say it right now, during this week there is an attempt by Yemeni nationals inside the United States… false flag,” he continued after discussing who really launched the ICBM from Yemen.

Sometime after the insider revealed this bombshell information he was apparently picked up by the FBI, despite the fact that he had not revealed any classified information.

In other words, the source was seemingly taken into custody because of his false flag warning.

“We have a source who got picked up by the FBI last night, I know who the source is, and he has actually been in the news before and is a prominent member of the military and intelligence community,” Jones revealed in an update.

“The FBI came and picked him up two hours after he was on as a caller, took him in to a military facility and hes there… hes even still got his phone, they took it away and downloaded it. Took his laptop and home computer. He has a lawyer now. Over what he said on air.”

To recap, a high-level military and intelligence source not only revealed a Saudi connection to the Las Vegas Massacre, he then went on to warn about what he believed to be an upcoming false flag terror attack that would be blamed on the Middle East but actually carried out by the deep state.

He was taken into custody shortly after.

“The word is [from the source] that Yemeni terrorists are getting ready to strike in Europe and the United States as part of this civil war,” Jones continued. “Within two hours of him saying that, the FBI was at his house, had transcripts and recordings of his last 7 or 8 phone calls here.”

Stay tuned as this is a developing story that will be updated as additional information comes in.
