The Future is What You Make It – 2020 Poem of the Year by Matthew Heines

David v. Big Tech Goliath

Because the future is what you make it, in 2020 veteran, author and teacher Matthew Heines ran for the United States House of Representatives.

His opponent is a Bill Gates, Microsoft, High Tech, perpetual lockdown recommending, election stealing Democrat.

She has doubled her 80 million dollar fortune in the 8 years she has been in Congress.

She spent 8 million on her last campaign raised in California.

Matthew Heines had 800.

For the sake of the people of Washington, Matthew Heines, with little resources, decided he would do something different to attract the attention of the voters.

As a veteran, author, teacher and small businessman with 14 years of experience living in the Middle East, Matthew Heines seemed to be the obvious candidate.

Here is Matthew Heines’ submission on the 2020 Washington State Voter Guide.

Thanks to the rigged voting machines and ballot counting fraud in Washington State, he never stood a chance.

I think Matthew Heines’ submission in the Washington State 2020 Election Guided deserves to be voted Best Blog of 2020.

Let me know what you think in the comments.

The Future is What You Make It

Thank you dear hero for giving of your time to vote.

I’m Matthew Heines and for you, a poem I wrote.

It’s about why you should check the box next to my name,

That way, things will never be the same.

In 2018, I ran on my plan called Real Deal,

The Real Deal – Matthew Heines’ Platform

We were facing so many problems it would make a nun steal.

Since that time Congress has stabbed us in our backs,

Making a bonanza for dirty lawyers and their political hacks.

Politicians put on puppet shows to justify their existence,

While the hateful media covers up their malfeasance.

Of all we suspected before we know now to be true.

If you ain’t got no money, America don’t care about you.

The rich use racism keeping the working poor in check,

With hateful media, low wages and never ending debt.

They manipulate you by pictures, songs and false words,

But when the election is over, your voice is not heard.

Thanks to this virus, you got poorer while the rich took it all.

Lying, hateful media gets rich while the poor lose their businesses due to Democrat lockdowns

They live in splendor, your back’s against the wall.

They make you wear masks and stay kenneled like dogs,

While they sit in their mansions doing interviews with hogs.

These politicians, they love to talk about their money.

They show you their ice cream and they think that’s funny.

Well, I’m Matthew Heines and I’m running for Congress.

As a teacher, all of my life, I had to make due with less.

The China Virus Allowed the Anti-American big tech firms to prosper and censor for China

Vote Outside the Box or You’ll Be Voting For Democrats From a Pine Box

To the millionaire incumbent we all have just one thing to say,

“You’ve done enough damage, now get out of our way!”

The future is what we make it, but we must read the signs.

This sign says “Great future ahead, if you Vote 4 Heines.”

Unfortunately, Matthew Heines’ great poetry and his $800 couldn’t compete with Suzane Del Bene’s California Hi Tech and China Millions.

It’s Hard to Tell Where Gates Ends and Inslee Begins!

Killing people in Washington State during China Virus lockdowns, denying residents access to higher education and favoring illegal immigrants over US Citizens are all a source of amusement for Hateful Jay Inslee and Needles Gates.

Thanks to Dominion Voting Machines, America is a Dictatorship of the Hi Tech firms and their minions

If you believe the Dominion voting machines, Washington State chose taxation and a Chinese style big tech regime under the leadership of Hateful Jay Inslee and Bill “Needles” Gates over real leadership, rule of law, freedom and opening up small businesses.

America can do better in 2022. Let’s make 2021 the year we stop the rule of the stupid rich.

Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery From An Insider’s Perspective

How It All Started

Without going into too much detail, I will tell you how I ended up sharing my tent with famous Russian Bigfoot researcher Igor Burtsev.

If it is more detail you desire, you can readily satisfy your curiousity by watching my first ever Squatchumentary: Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass. https://youtu.be/F930_8WBCRo

Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass

I interviewed Igor for over an hour and a half and published that interview on my YouTube Channel.

The details of our chance second meeting and our subsequent sojourn into the Cascades near the Canadian border can be readily obtained from simply watching Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery.

Holding Back?

Is the reader wondering why I don’t just explain the details of our rather surrendipitous meetings?

I would simply reply my humble attempt to do so could scarce address the scope of the odds and chance that led to our shared journey into the unknown to seek answers from the unexplained.

Things You Can’t See In Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery

Feeling the Heat

The second and third week of June of 2021 were among the hottest of the Summer in the Eastern Washington Cascades.

Temperatures in Metaline Falls during the 2021 Bigfoot Festival reached the 100’s on one of days I was covering the festival.

Meeting Little John of the Bigfoot Forest

In short, I spent over seven days camping out in the extreme heat while capturing video, doing interviews and trying to stay alive in the intense mountain heat.

Other Chance Meetings

Thanks to Todd Neiss of the North American Primate Conservancy, I was able to meet Little John of the Bigfoot Forest, who would become a key figure in Cascade Bigfoot Blood Mystery and Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle.

Matthew Heines and Todd Neiss at the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival

In Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle, Little John will add his own experiences that fateful day.

They happened that happened the morning Igor and I found the mystery blood on the floor of our tent. Blood I could not have missed when I got out of bed and left the tent that morning.

From where did the mystery blood come?

In Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle, Little John does his best to come to a rationale explanation. But, does it hold up?

We will also see some of the setbacks we had when it came to testing the blood for DNA.

Cascade Blood Mystery II?

The question on everyone’s mind is – will there be a Cascade Blood Mystery II?

There is only one way that I can answer that question fairly.

You will find the answer at the conclusion of Cascade Bigfoot Chewelah Triangle.

From Cryptid Tank To Cryptids Tank – When Great Ideas Need Money

By February 20, 2022, I had spent (wasted) the better part of a month listening to a never ending stream of half-truths and sheer nonsense.

Of course, nothing highlighted a month of this more than being called a “mother—–” repeatedly when I had concerns as to Stephen Major’s choice of a panel for a show I had created called Cryptid(s) Tank.

On that particular day, a Sunday of all days, I realized the lies, half truths, nonsense and being called a “mother——” and a “son-of-a-bitch,” by Stephen Major reached over the line when I received the following email from Stephen T. Major of Extreme Expeditions Northwest, LLC.

From Cryptid Tank To Cryptids Tank - When Great Ideas Need Money

There are number of questionable details about this correspondence. First of all, this has nothing to do with the disclosure of information.

If he wasn’t in a hurry to steal my creation Cryptids Tank from me, why did he have to send me an email on Sunday morning?

Why Would I Need To Sign An NDA For My Own Show?

What this document does is it assigns me not as an equal partner in the Cryptid Tank Enterprise, instead, it assigns me a legal identity as an independent contractor.

At no time have we ever discussed my role, my compensation or my percentage of the show.

Stephen Major lists Cryptid Tank with his Crypto Coin and all of it under Extreme Expeditions LLC, when it is not his show to begin with.

He lists me as an independent contractor, yet I have no contract. I haven’t received and will receive no compensation or reimbursement for hundreds in expenses I have already outlaid.

I will not be compensated for the hundreds of hours I have already devoted to this project.

The only reason he lists me as an independent contractor is it is the only way for him to say I was working for him when I came up with my idea.

That way he is entitled to all royalties etc. without ever having to pay me a dime.

Stephen Major Lists Me as Producer and Writer, Not Creator

Stephen Major is making double sure he is going to garner any royalties, and he has all the licensing rights.

For Stephen Major to promise to divulge information that he doesn’t have, in return for me signing away my rights to my intellectual property (Cryptid(s) Tank) is highly inappropriate.

Stephen demands people respect the Jewish Sabbath. When it come to Christians, that’s another story.

Finally, Stephen Major, a guy who is supposed to be in charge, doesn’t even know, or check the correct spelling of my name.

Check Out The Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival on Vimeo!

I Should Have Known Better

Anyone who has seen my Documentary on Vimeo, Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass is quite familiar with the history between Stephen Major and me.

For some reason, that fateful day in January of 2022, a little over six months since his last dirty deed, a little over a month ago now, I returned Stephen Major’s call.

Cryptid Crypto Or Crooked Crapto?

When I returned Stephen’s call, he told me was introducing a Crypto Currency called Cryptid Coin.

What prompted me to do it? Esoterically, I thought I should be a good Christian and try to forgive and forget.

In reality, I thought his idea about Cryptid Coin and the idea behind it sounded pretty good.

According to Stephen, I would be compensated with these Cryptid Coins if I agreed to act as the Washington Spokesman and do a commercial.

I did a lot more than that.

I had Stephen on Encounters USA to talk about his coin.

I had to drive to Spokane at my own expense to write and film a commercial.

I gave up all work on my political campaign.

Looking for a Conservative Christian Candidate in Washington State’s First District?

I gave up all work on my documentary about Bigfoot Hunting with Igor Burtsev.

I gave up my scheduled interviews on Books in Heinessight.

In a meeting in Spokane, Stephen told another party and me there would be a big release Cryptid Coin on February 12.

The Beginning of Cryptids Tank

At the meeting,I suggested for the first time that I planned on documenting Tom Sewid’s application process.

That was the beginning of Cryptids Tank.

I went home and wrote a blog.

Knowing Stephen Major, in that blog, I made it clear that I was the creator of the show Cryptids Tank.

I made Cryptid Coin merchandise and posted it to as many sites as I had time for.

It Took Almost A Week To Make and Post These Products Across the Internet.

2/12/2022

On February 12, I got a call from Stephen.

He didn’t want to talk about the coin, even though it was the day it was being “released.”

I assumed it had done nothing so I started talking about how I wanted to document Tom Sewid’s application.

I explained to Stephen if we could bring attention to the coin, it would go up in value.

Cryptids Tank is Born

From that point, I pointed out we could make a game show out of it.

Tom Sewid could appear before a panel and we would call it Cryptid Tank.

From that point on, the only time I have heard any mention of Cryptid Coin was when I told Stephen when the show goes up the coin goes up.

He said that we think alike…

I knew the coin was doing nothing.

Suddenly, Stephen became all interested in the show.

When I told him my ideas about the show Cryptids Tank, he agreed.

I interviewed Thomas Sewid on my podcast Encounters USA to promote Cryptids Tank.

When I started discussing my ideas of who we should get for a panel, and that I need to find people so knew we wouldn’t be relying on him, he said he had it taken care of.

That’s when he started going into his tirade.

Yet, there was never any more than one person on the panel.

“No Show.”

Over the course of time I heard:

Cliff Barackman (Finding Bigfoot) was talking about doing the show.

Later: I think Cliff Barackman might do the show.

I’m gonna make you so rich.

I’ve been talking to so many influencers. I just can’t tell you right now who they are.

Ken Gerhard is going to be the spokesman for Cryptid Coin.

We’re going on a diving expedition in Lake Iliamna Alaska (glacier run-off). In a wet suit – really?

I need you to come here for a meeting. There’s some people I want you to meet.

If you’ve ever seen the movie, The Social Network, or the TV show American Greed, I think you have a pretty good idea what Stephen Major had planned for this meeting in Spokane he just had to have.

For some reason however, Stephen couldn’t wait until Thursday, February 24.

That’s when he insisted I had to drive back to Spokane for another of his meetings.

Instead, Stephen Major just had to send me an email.

An email which clearly puts his grubby little hand trying to pick out of my intellectual property cookie jar.

Obviously, we have reached what I would like to call a Spokane Standoff. That’s a Mexican Standoff with a knife already in your back.

It’s really unfortunate the people have to be the way they are, as a friend of mine just told me.

I really like Stephen on a personal level. On a business level is another story.

Written & Ready 2 Go

I just want everyone to know Cryptids Tank (cryptidstank.com, cryptidstank on Facebook) is down but it is in no way out.

In spite of the drama of dealing with Stephen Major, I actually wrote the script for the first two shows.

All I need is an investor or two with some financial integrity and the ability to agree to a 35/65 split on the profits.

Then, we need a panel, and a few researchers that want to win some Big Cryptid Research Bucks.

If that happens, it will be the best show on television.

If not, I got called a “mother——” and a “son-of-a—–” and experienced a string of B.S. that will be hanging from here to Spokane until the spring thaw, for absolutely nothing.

Exciting New Bigfoot Hoodies, Alien T-shirts & Dogman Sweatshirts Are Here!

Exciting New Bigfoot Hoodies, Alien T-shirts and Dogman Sweatshirts Are Here!

In the first place, for almost three years now, Encounters USA has been one of the top paranormal podcasts.

However, during the entire life of Encounters USA, we never thought of one thing.

We never thought to put the same kind of colorful content we put into the show, onto our own line of merchandise.

Encounters USA logo

Adieu Allie, Sassie & Dot

To begin, if you have been a fan of Encounters USA, you are familiar with Allie our alien, Sassie our Sasquatch and Dot our Dogman or Dogwoman characters.

Then, Allie Sassie and Dot have not only been on our logos and banners since 2019, this trio has made its way onto numerous t-shirt and sweatshirt designs.

As you may of may not know, Allie the Alien, Sassy the Sasquatch and Dottie the Dogman or Dogwoman first originated at the ECETI Ranch near Mt. Adams in Washington State.

It was then that artist Vidonni conjured up these wonderful characters. All she asked was two T-shirts.

I still owe her the T-shirts.

Slump in Sales Tells the Tales

Of course, at Encounters USA, we have been so busy producing quality videos and podcasts, we were not paying attention to what the public wanted.

That is to say the fact we sold no t-shirts, hoodies or merchandise of any kind meant one thing. We were not offering our listeners, readers, viewers and subscribers a chance to show off their pride.

Show off their pride?

Certainly, the loyal followers of Encounters USA deserve to have quality fun merchandise available to them that is not only colorful and fun, but original and eye-catching as well, just like Encounters USA!

Fun Colorful Designs by Mathew Heines

Correspondingly, the merchandise designed by Matthew Heines is fun and it is original.

Not to mention, this is the kind of paranormal merchandise you are going to be proud to put on yourself and your loved ones.

Aliens, Bigfoot & Dogman have been spotted recently in the Pacific Northwest on well-designed and colorful Encounters USA Merchandise.

For the thousands of people who have been enjoying Encounters USA over the past almost 3 years now, one thing has been apparent. Of course, that would be our lack of Alien, Bigfoot & Dogman apparel.

Oh, sure we made some T-shirts and other merchandise so I would have something to wear at events!

Since Encounters USA was focusing mainly on putting out quality episodes, it was never possible to find time to design merchandise our listeners and viewers and viewers could wear and be proud of.

At least until now, that is.

Bigfoot Believes in You

Now, Encounters USA is proud to offer its own line of alien, Bigfoot & Dogman Apparel. I would like to start off by pointing out our Bigfoot Believes line of apparel.

While you are believing you are going to find Bigfoot in the woods, Bigfoot has other plans.

Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass Is Now On YouTube!

There’s been a lot of speculation and anticipation about the hit new 75 minute video Squatchumentary Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass, which has just been released on YouTube!

Bigfoot Festival Drama

To add to the drama surrounding the release of the video was the drama surrounding the Bigfoot Festival itself.

Encounters USA before the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival, literally.

As you will see in the S quatchumentary on YouTube, the Festival was the creation of some of the leading minds in the Bigfoot field, at least in the Spokane, Washington area.

But was the festival what it seemed to be on the surface? In the first few minutes of the video, there is a sense that something is not exactly right, but what is it?

Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival Press Pass Is Now On Vimeo! — Matthew Heines and Bob Gimlin Yuck It Up

Why was Matthew Heines of Encounters USA invited to the festival in the first place? Was it to publicize the festival or was there another, more sinister purpose afoot?

Was the festival a success?

The Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival A Time For Community

Encounters USA — Group photo of the presenters and celebrities of the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival

My participation in the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival began rather surreptitiously one day last April. It was then that I received an inquiry of sorts from Marblemount Bigfoot Festival Organizer, Syvella Khalil.

Syvella was inquiring as to whether or not I had plans to attend the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival.

Metaline Falls? Where is Metaline Falls?

I had never heard of Metaline Falls. I had heard of Bigfoot however, as Bigfoot is the second element in my aliens, Bigfoot and Dogman podcast.

So, naturally, I said yes.

It was my agreement to attend the festival that opened up a world heretofore unknown to me. I am talking about the world of Eastern Washington Bigfoot.

Before the festival was over I would be exposed to a list of characters and events I would not soon forget.

There were people like festival organizer Bill Bisson, a community leader of the town of Metaline.

I would learn there is a Metaline and a Metaline Falls and that he was running for mayor of the latter.

That however, is another story.

Documentary For 2

When I left for Metaline Falls, it was my intention to film two documentaries.

But I would end up with more, a lot more than just outstanding footage and subjects.

I would find partners for a tour business I have always wanted to start.

Then, I would meet a Russian Bigfoot researcher and watch him turn a ten minute interview into an hour long discussion about everything but Bigfoot.

After that, I would interview all the Bigfoot personalities from Bob Gimlin and Ken Gerhard to Igor Burtsev and Tom Sewid.

All week, I would meet wonderful new friends.

For three days and nights I would camp in one of the most beautiful areas with a swimming/fish pond.

I would learn about betrayal and what it means to “follow the chopper.”

During the festival, a heat wave hit the state. Every day the temperature climbed into the one hundreds.

In spite of it all, the Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival was a huge success.

Bigfoot fans and lovers listened to their favorite speakers and researchers.

Vendors and the local community made record profits.

The actual turnout of the festival exceeded expectations by almost two thousand.

A Time For Community

In the end, I would see what it was for a small community to come together for the sake of keeping their community alive.

It was this spirit that I captured and am turning into a real live squatchumentary in 4K called The Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival A Squatchumentary.
