“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity.

The murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson revealed two horrific aspects of American life: A healthcare executive was shot dead, and because he was a healthcare executive, people cheered. Why? Because many feel our health system is broken.

Tonight, Dr. Phil explores how a fractured health care system has affected American lives. Angela says after her husband was diagnosed with Stage 4 stomach cancer, their health insurance company refused to cover a necessary procedure to save his life. Kay was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 35, and she never imagined she’d spend 10 years trying to get health insurance to approve needed treatments. Brigham Buhler worked a pharmacy rep for Ely Lilly, but left the industry when he could see how companies prioritized profits over patient access to life savings medications. He now has his own healthcare company, Ways2Well, focusing on prevention. Dr. Bill Hennessey worked as a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician for years, dealing with frustrated patients who were given delays and denials from health insurance companies. He left to create his own company, Careguide, to help others navigate the healthcare system.

According to the FBI, there are 33,000 gangs in America. Think of how many horrific videos we’ve seen of thugs attacking people randomly. Or footage of flash gangs robbing stores. These menaces to our society have even attacked police officers in Times Square. This is happening in Anytown, USA. Dr. Phil sits down with residents from Gilbert, Arizona where an affluent gang of teens known as the “Gilbert Goons” have been terrorizing the town. What confuses so many is that the teens come from affluence, yet they resort to selling drugs, guns, and beating random teens on the street. Their violent actions went unchecked until the authorities say the “goons” fatally beat a 16-year-old at a Halloween party. Now the community has galvanized to call out the authorities who did nothing to stop the teen violence. Katey is a mother of four and a resident of Gilbert who did her own investigation into the “goons” reign of terror. She says the city turned a blind eye because these are kids from privileged backgrounds. Rick sent his son to Europe for his safety after his son was brutally beaten by the “Goons.” And Eric, a former gang member, tells Dr Phil how a gang life is a dead end. Plus, News on Merit Street anchor, Loni Coombs did her own investigation and uncovers a teen source who happens to have ties to the “Goons.” Thank you to our sponsors: Preserve Gold: Visit: https://drphilgold.com/ Get a FREE precious metals guide that contains essential information on how to help protect your accounts.
