I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free.
and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent.
Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled.
You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn.
and your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave?
Oh, sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great Republic in each God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame.
Or even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right. We only watching tremble too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Dill the land of the free.
One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines of occupied territories. Southwest, east and southwest. Gentlemen, you are listening to us on We the People Radio Network at wtprn.com. We're also on Liberty Tree Radio dot 4mg dot com. And you will find us on AM&FM microstations and CB base stations east and west of the Mississippi. Oh, along with regular AM&FM stations. Want to say hi to our friends in Ohio.
Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and in the Carolinas. Hey, to the big news stations down there that are running us. I want to say thank you. On Galaxy 25 KU-band satellite. For those of you who have a satellite system, go to wtprn.com. That's We The People Radio Network. The first banner that comes up right there will give you the coordinates for you to tune your satellite dish into We The People Radio Network. Take the time, set your equipment up.
If you're out in a remote location, well, look at it this way. You can hit that bird a lot easier than you can probably the phone if there's no wiring.
So here's a chance for you to listen in when you're out of the cabin or up in the country or over in the mountains, wherever you are. We the people radio network go to Galaxy 25 KU band satellite on WTPR and is where you'll find the info. Also we need to have your help with the network. We need to make sure that we're up and online. They got to keep the lights going, got to keep the computers up people. So we do need to help with the bills if you can donate or if you again support our sponsors anyway it supports the network.
So we do need your help. We want to make sure that the bills are covered. And yes, it's that time of the month. And there's always a little shortage here and there. You never know. And right now, your assistance is greatly needed. So please, if you could pitch in, go to We the People Radio Network. Check out the site. There are some offers that are being made to help support the network. You get something as a gift for donating to We the People Radio Network. And yes, they will accept donations. We need the assistance. It would help.
uh... everybody out there pitching a little bit just like the ron paul campaign don't have to do a lot of you can that be nice but if everybody out there listening to the little that's not a burden separate prison person but it may makes it possible for us to get the job done now anyway you have mike who's going to be covering more field uh... field operations and things that need to be done or that you need to think about when you are in the field as an individual or group or for encampments
And this is an important issue because we are going to see this problem develop. I cannot stress enough that look what happened with Katrina. And I'm not just talking about being in New Orleans. All of that mass of people that went north went somewhere. Most of them didn't have any place to go. With a little bit of organization and a little more coordination both from the host communities and by the people around the ground, if they were thinking a little more and had better information, could have done better.
Well, they could have the proper tools. They could have the working knowledge so that they could use what they do have available and make it work to the best of their ability. That's one of the reasons we come up with solutions. As I've said thousands of times, we don't complain about the problem. Mike's been away here for a moment. Mike, you're with us. We're going to give you a chance to get your pen and papers ready. We have a caller of a holdover from the last hour. We got George from Pennsylvania who's been so patient. George, jump in there, please. George is out there somewhere. You might have lost George. Maybe not.
Say what? If you have questions for Mike and you would like to call in, 888-202-1984, that's 888-202-1984, but I'd like to ask questions of Mike, 512-646-6449. The reason? Because I know there are people, and first of all, do not be embarrassed, and please, I don't even want to hear this, do not be embarrassed or say this is a silly question. None of the questions you're going to ask are silly.
We have people at many different levels and with regard to their education base or their personal experience. We all have something we can learn from each other. Okay? And when you ask a question, chances are the question you're asking is also in the minds of a lot of other people that are listening. So you save all of them having you repeat the same question. Okay? And you say Mike having repeated a thousand times because he's doing on the radio once. Okay? 512-646-649-202-1984-1984-1984-2 1984.
And do we have George? George may have lost or we may have, we'll wait. I might hear him in our ear here in a little bit. Anyway, Mike, where are we going today? We're gonna talk about, we're talking about tornadoes, things where you may have to, or you may have to do without the infrastructure as they turn the power off or something. One thing that I found handy is to making a chuck box I had was a little barbecue grill. You go down the road and try to wedge it in with things
what I did, I measured the barbecue, I made all my propane, all the utensils handy, and then got to the area, able to eat off of to patient of like base, wash your dishes, wash your clothes in, it's all going to vary on the amount of people that you have. And touch on a grease trap line to give the way way so that we don't thought and get more fitted in here. So I'll have to get a bigger vehicle, go buy more stuff, stuff, and then you're going to have a problem with moving that. Because we equipment for any event, even
this is wrong, and what we need to do is go on the offensive, and we call the shots and put the enemy on the defensive. 90 degree angle, and then March, and then they'll, so that it may not do, is they would defecate in the bags, and then they'd tie them up as yours, and I understand. One other thing is maybe we wanna touch on is the organization, the Special Forces A teams find that this, their communication specialists, their medical specialists, weapons and ideas on how best to a cooperation is set on Crete,
charge and we're not going to deviate the plan that we can help this. Another thing of Percord and you're going to have to protect from the rain because if it gets rained on, then I'm going to give some numbers here and make sure every three items that we can use are chloro. We're going to deal with the petizing residue, raises the pH of the soil. When you wash the dish and then you rinse them before you sanitize them, make sure that you rinse the pH of 10, pH of 5, and what the manufacturer recommends.
hard water and that can be effective. Dine and chlorine are not effective. You may die to use chlorine on the minimum concentrations to be between 50 million per million. And I hear the music. I'll tell you what, Mike, stay right there. We're going to pick up as soon as we come back. You're going to continue right to the bottom of the hour and then some. This is the Intel Report Live. We've got Mike from Arizona. We'll be back in three minutes.

Some days the phone systems just don't work the way we expected, Mike. Well, I'll tell you what, if our caller can hear us and he's up, go ahead and jump in there. But if not, Mike, I tell you what we're going to do. We're going to keep running going. So jump in there where he ended before we went to break. OK. The next thing is we're going to cover up. You're going to need a trash can where you can sort of be labeled rent. First one, you're going to make sure that the detergent is going to have the pH of the solute. You're going to sanitize them according to the labels and, as usual, more depending on the manufacturer's
where you can air dry them. Now if you're out in the field, you can go to the garage sales, a cab and tent, and maybe you can wash and sanitize the dishes if you air dry it. So that is not all that MSRX G-RIN line. I do not get any money for it. I highly recommend it. Talk about the use of, we're going to do like paper plates, towels, boxes, like your water bottles came in to incorporate, throw it in a trash garbage like potato rings or onion skins. Better deal buying in bulk like a fusion of this.
Because obviously, powder would be a real catastrophe thinking that it's, I highly recommend, again, for safety's sake, is original kentu tesles, your pans, your dishes, and then you're going to have one for your beans. And do not mix enough sluff you grow to a little bit more than you expected that you have plenty of five-gallon drum. To place one inch from the bite is the exit, so it's to divided 50. We talked about making sure that we had plenty of water.
I
or you have, ultimately, two to be one foot wide, one foot deep next to where the pit is, and then tapering downhill to approximately one and a half feet at the end. And I hear the music. Now, I'll say what we're going to do, and this is the Intel Report. We're at the bottom of the hour break. We've got Mike Marizona. If we have any callers, 888-202-1984 for questions, this is the Intel Report. We'll be back in three minutes.
People who use Cartavite know about the pollutants in our body and want them out. For over five years, Cartavite has proven itself time-tested. Here's Dr. Mattson, a naturopathic doctor's thoughts on Cartavite. In our mind, there isn't such a great big mystery to disease anymore. This basic tenet of yeast in the gut and metals in the liver covers at least seven to eight percent of the diseases that we see. When we do our program, you know, in herbal form it's like Cartavite and you see someone who could barely walk up a hill now going for regular jugs.
few months later, we know we're doing something right. It's a well thought out formula. I mean, the idea of it working on yeast and metals both at the same time and liver function instead on it, you'll find I think that it'll work more than just on heart problems and circulation problems. It'll work on other problems as well. For more information, call 1-877-928-8822 or visit our website at www.heartdrop.com. That toll free number again, 1-877-827-9.

So any of those skunks who got all that information not to come in from like Haifa and Tel Aviv and all those companies, those skunks, you know what they're good for. Now they give you an idea how much they value their coworkers or their fellow Ameri- Oh wait a minute, they're not Americans anyways, they don't really care about them. Other stuff going on, we got a whole bunch of callers stacked up. I've got a question for Mike, please jump in there. We got Skyo from Pennsylvania first, jump in there please. We got you, go right ahead. Oh good.
I just wanted to let everybody know real quick from outside the box newsandviews.com, I wanted to remind everybody tonight Jay Leno is going to be having Ron Paul on. I don't know if you were aware of that or your listeners were aware of it. Well Jay, less than we're wondering, I thought it was Jay Leno, we thought it might be Letterman, but it's Jay Leno is where he'll be on this evening. That'll be 30 on Eastern time, I'm not sure what time it will be on the Western coast, but I want to check in your local listings for that right now on outside the box newsandviews.com.
You guys want to go over there and check them out. Excellent. I was listening to your guest there and he was talking about was it chlorine or was it regular store-bought chlorine? And you can use that also to recommend it, but expedient use regular pools per canteen depending on if it's cloudy water. Yes. And I really appreciate you letting me come on and Mark, I will talk to you soon.
and
It's very important that everybody tunes in to show the rest of the world that, you know, wrong orders are not just spam. And call in the network, by the way, and say, thank you for having him up. I know we don't trust him that far, but at least call in and find out what the numbers are or email them and say, hey, that was great. Have him up again. Right. Good point. Excellent. Everybody can do that. Real simple. We got all kinds of on-hand technology to do it with. Appreciate that. No problem. Hey, thank you. Thank you. God bless. Now we have George from Florida. George, jump in there, please.
Sometimes it's a little slower or faster. George from Florida, we got you George. Mike, are you still there? Yes sir. Oh thank goodness, well he's not alone. Hello? Have we got George there? Hello? Okay, jump in there George, you got a question for Mike? Yes, I kind of study, you know the biggest thing I've seen on a battlefield that would kill more than bullets is diseases like scurvy and vitamin deficiencies. If there's sufficient supplement out there we could take,
Because I know a Walmart diet is going to be off balance. I know we're replacing calories, but getting necessary vitamin C, vitamin E, and tars. Is there a supplement out there we could take daily that we don't run into these vitamin deficiencies? Boy, that's a good question. I'm sure you can get these at Limey from. Lime's with the longest.
Now another thing, I've mentioned this in equipping part one and I've also mentioned this over the years, any vitamin supplement is better than no vitamin supplement. Even if all you could do is go to the dollar store and pick up these one a day multiple vitamins and put a few of them in your pack, you're ahead of the game. Now most military rations, especially this was true with the old what everybody calls the C rations, but K rations were no different. C rations as we're familiar with them during the Vietnam War or MREs are heavily vitamin four.
fortified. That was intentional. Now, I think they've backed off on some of that, number one, because government's chintzy and they buy the same thing for the same amount of money, but give you less nowadays. The scurrilous rats are in the supply system. But typically, for instance, the crackers, normally they'd be a carbohydrate cracker. In the military, the crackers are actually a protein cracker and they're heavily fortified.
Now this is intentional. There's a couple things that happens here. A, it resupplies supplements, you know, the mineral consumption, also other vitamins that are needed, but in the process slows down the metabolism too. There's intentional engineering to the food so that you're more regular and this is an issue when you're in the field, something you brought up right away, Mike, about patrolling with regard to defecating, you know, the elimination of urine.
You're gonna find that you gotta drink more water because you are processing, you know, very rich foods and it sounds strange. Oh, Marie doesn't totally rich to me. Rich people think flavor or whatever. You're rich in supplemental materials because you're using so much. You know, we're working out. When you're in the field, you're working out constantly. You're going cross-country. You're climbing hills. You're moving 80 pounds worth of debris you got on your backpack or in your web gear. You're carrying a 7 to 10 pound rifle, you know, loaded.
All this stuff, you think, well, I can do that for an hour. Well, you got to do it 24 hours a day. Now granted, you might stop, but you got to remember too, sometimes you don't get to pick the fighting window or the time that you're going to be in motion. The example is when we go back to Katrina, when the crisis hit, there wasn't any choosing. Time out, I got to have eight hours sleep. It's not going to work that way. So vitamin supplements of any kind are better than none. And I would say this, as part of your storage system,
for you know to support other people coming in those dollar store multiple vitamins are a cheap solution so you can give everybody at least one of those plus whatever other food you have be it rolled oats rice or whatever combined with that you know bucket of fish heads you found in the you know you were able to save for those special occasions between everything you get all the nutrients oils and everything that you need now there are better supplements there's a whole series of different types there are
uh... additional uh... materials that are offered by foreign militaries because they really each country has a different philosophy on this so you'll find different solutions but you may not necessarily get him in the u.s. uh... example is they do everything they can to try and block british and canadian rations now we have a great love for the british of the canadian military forces but they have some cool stuff out there and they actually make a little bigger meal that's a little more unique
Plus, it has other items on board that you wouldn't find in the U.S. ration. Well, we're not the military, so we can make them ourselves. Example is you're worried about vitamin C. Absolutely. There are vitamin C candies and supplements that you can pick up that I would recommend. Because vitamin C is the utility vitamin. It does everything that you need. You have hauls, as Nancy pointed out here just saying, hauls, cough drops, or another one.
All's mix of vitamin C cough drop, or not cough drop, but a vitamin C supplement right now, but they're not the only ones. There's a lot of companies. Vitamin C, the body will convert it to whatever it needs to be. In other words, if you've got the vitamin C covered, pretty much the rest of the system will follow. There are about eight basic amino acids that are critical to body maintenance. Two areas to cover with regard to homemade field rations. Number one, lentils.
everybody goes, oh, lentils, yeah, lentils or lima beans. Now both of those are actually very, very high and a good chunk of the amino acids that cover the difference between rice, beans and the others that you eat. Expensive, there's yellow lentils, gold lentils, brown lentils and the other thing is when you are looking at food supplement in the field, say in encampment, the other issue here, tie this in with sprouting.
Lentils are one of the best, most nutritious sproutable beans or legumes of the whole family that you're going to pick and cover seven of the eight basic amino acids that you need for supplementing whatever you normally take in the way of proteins and meats in the field. If you don't have enough meat, you go with the lentils, go with the proteins that way.
and fava beans, garbanzos, all the amino acids for muscle development are right there. What we're doing is we're preventing the body from emaciating. We'll be back in three minutes with the Intel report.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are back. This is the intel report last, last long stretch here. So, Jordan, one last question, because we got other callers. Go right ahead. Yes, another thing about like burying the dead. If we can't, like I say, we got a couple, like two people we found dead, they're part of the militia. We have to bury them right then and there. How do we, I know, like at West, I think, you guys probably know, if you go to some of these ghost towns, they pile rocks.
on top where they bury so the animals don't go dig the bodies up. I'd like to know, how do we mark the graves, identify the location and where the families can later go exhume or whatever? Well, that's a part of it. Okay, now with regard to dealing with casualties, again, if evacuation of the body is possible, and that depends on weather conditions, then we carry everybody out. There's a basic rule. A lot of the Special Warfare units have had for years, going back decades.
nobody behind. Now that depends on the conditions. Graves registration with regard to marking systems, different units have different organizational ways of doing this, anything from dog tags to other types of plastic markers. And it is an issue that I brought up years ago that it's not unpleasant, something you're simply going to have to deal with. I will say this, nothing's going into the grave that's usable though. In other words, uniforms, equipment, we're going to need them for the troops.
The person that's going to be buried is going to be buried in a minimal condition, but you do want to try and preserve the remains. So to encapsulate the body to make sure that it's preserved so the bones are in one place because you're going to have degradation depending on the acidity of the soil. Also again, depends on moisture content, et cetera, et cetera. Traditionally, ponchos have been used. My problem with that is ponchos are a tool. We cannot afford to lose equipment.
So we're going to have to come up with a, each area is going to have to come up with a system. A lot of units even have body bags, but they use the body bags as sleeping bag covers. So those are on hand. I can tell you horror stories of moving bodies where they're sloshing in the bag, but the men didn't leave them behind because the policy has always been bring the remains back for the family. It can be done. But it is something that's addressed. I'll tell you a great place. Backwoods Home Magazine. Backwoods Home Magazine. Do a search.
You'll find some great information there. They even cover the concept of doing home burials. We didn't used to have somebody contract this out. In this country, it used to be taken care of locally, of course, if it was possible. But in many cases, the families were so remote that they had to deal with it themselves. And so this is an issue that should be addressed again. It's a shame, and I'll bring up that image, that poor man laying there that died, baking in the sun, down there by the dome down there in New Orleans.
Now you can't tell me that after a day in the sun that that wasn't a wretched, wretched situation. Guys, you know, just rolling a body off to the side of the wheelchair and covering up with a blanket ain't enough. And that tells me just how ill prepared, but also how ill conceived, or how, what lack of fortitude there was on the part of the men who were there who weren't thinking about their people. They were thinking about, you know, something else.
in general. We have to be ready for that and it's one of the many considerations. George, we've got to let you go because we've got Fred from Alabama next. Thank you. And we've got Fred from Alabama. Jump in there, please. There we go, Fred. We've got you. Question for Mike? Oh, Okie dokie. Hi, Mike and Mark. I was wondering about the radio gear hanging. It looks to me like the situation arises. I guess my question is what would be the best data information of what's going on?
Well, we have a series of, in fact, we have several hundreds, and you know how it works with the ham operators, but we have several hundreds of different shortwave transmitters that are on standby. Some of them are what we call bullet magnets. They're multi-thousand watt transmitters. We've acquired everything from the DOD to private access. I've got four units on a pallet here right now that are going to another home, half of a telephone booth. And their mission is when the time comes, they get turned on, they give out specific data. When they go offline, they go offline. They didn't cost us anything.
And they're down for the count, but for the time that they run, we're going to get as much pertinent information out in the shortwave district as we can, shortwave band. AM conventional, long band shortwave, VHF, UHF, we're using all of those. There's a number of other technologies, and I can't really talk about per se, but we've mentioned them before.
that are actually quite simple but allow us to talk across the country with an unmodified box with the exception of a few little tinkering that needs to be done under the hood that allow us to speak like you and I are talking on this program right now with no interference. I cannot stress, we've already got two production facilities working on this, we've been spreading these units out around the country, we are going to expand on those, okay? And nothing more than a simple CB box.
in a mid-range model to get the job done is one of many solutions. That's something that... Yes, the average person will be able to access that well once they have the system modified and in fact allows for over 600 frequencies in place program. We have that as another option. I still cannot stress enough. CB, Marine Channel Radio is another one.
We need this also for our medical support issues too because we have a lot of situations where just like Katrina, we're going to have to evacuate people and we're going to have to coordinate it more effectively. I believe that our federal system will fail us just as it already has before.
and whatsoever. I think the only solutions that are going to find ways to keep our people alive after whatever mock attack they come up with next is going to be because of you, the amateur radio operators, us, the patriots in the militia effort, and the general population once we help to coordinate them better because we're not going to treat them like ragged animals that are to be herded. Everybody is going to have a job.
That's the way civil defense was supposed to be set up. Everybody doesn't sit there with their thumbs rotated between one orifice and the other, you know, mouth and between the cheeks to the rear. Instead, they're going to all be doing something. You don't sit here and fret about it. Congratulations. You got all these bodies standing here. Put them to work. But don't put them to work in the communist sense, we're going to have labor armies. You know, let them think. People do think, given the opportunity, if you give them the option to use their brain, they'll plug it in.
So communications, the best thing you can do is continue to expand your capability to transmit and receive. In other words, in as many different systems as possible. And yes, it does require building a little bit of an antenna farm, as you know. Not a big one, but you have the capability on hand. Even if you don't have it set up, if you have it on the shelf and you have the backups just in case one system fails to go to another, which we do all the time, we've got the raw material here to set up for one monster antenna farm.
But we're not, this isn't the only site, this isn't even the best site. We have sites that are much more sophisticated, already set up with shortwave, and they're dotted all over the United States, not just here in Michigan. And home-brew antennas. Yes. And again, we'll tie this in. Medical support, we may have, one of the things where your component ties in with what Mike's doing is we have, just like we're doing now, where we have questions, somebody's got a specific type of casualty.
We need to plug in the information to pass the information on to these people. We deal with a group of people that may be contaminated in some way showing specific symptoms. We're going to need the communications in place to question our other technicians, our surgeons, our doctors, so that we can utilize them appropriately and we don't have to move them all the way across the country necessarily.
See, that's another issue. And also even in wartime it would still be the same issue addressed. Now it will be an omnidirectional thing. You know how that works. We're not going to be too specific with some things. It will be generally broadcast so that, eh, the other side let them guess where it's going. Now there are other situations, you know, Yagi antenna technology is something I really promote big time. We can keep it down to a far lesser degree than 5% for leakage.
You can keep it down in the 3 to 2 percent range and stay between two YAGI antennas. Keep a very tight beam and a very tight signal that is very difficult to intercept. It can be hit still, but harder to with the energy we have. Well, very good. I appreciate it. One more thing and I'll let you go. I'll hang up, but it could cover that multi-fuel stove that you talked about earlier. I did a pencil already and I thank you for your time. Mike, jump right in there. He needs the information on the stove. I can get that at the...
It's the MSR taking off. So, there's an ad, it's quite a compact, very, very powerful stove. Well, Mike, we're going to have you back again. How about Thursday? Two days from now? Two days from now? Second hour? Second hour. Sounds like a plan. And we're going to have information contact points on the only errors. Thank you, Mike, just for being up. As always, God bless the Republic.
Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We are on the march, both day and night. Hurrah. Fix bayonets, chase them down the road. We're gonna make sure we use a sterile bayonet when we poke them, so that they don't get too infected before the sharks eat them. Thank you, Mike. Don't want to poison the sharks. That's right. God bless you, Mark, later. God bless. Bye-bye. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
Did you read this? Chicago just became the murder capital of America. I don't understand. It's been a felony to have a gun since 95. I thought that was supposed to prevent murders. I don't increase them. Criminals will always find a way to get guns, while the rest of us are just left defenseless. Chicago authorities have seized over 75,000 firearms since 1995. And now, Chicago's murder rate is twice as high as New York City.
Not in Kennesaw, Georgia. In 1982, our city passed a law requiring every household to have a gun. It terrified the criminals, and our violent crime rate is now 75% below the national average. We sleep well here in Kennesaw. Americans who own guns prevent over a million violent crimes every year and save lives. Get the facts. Visit armedandsecure.org. That's armedandsecure.org.
