Summary
Mark Koernke discussed tactical preparedness, mapping strategies, and resource acquisition during economic collapse. He emphasized obtaining physical maps, using Google Maps for reconnaissance, and establishing defensive positions. The show covered employment strategies during labor shortages, including under-the-table work and negotiating part-time positions. Koernke warned of impending economic depression, advised converting currency to physical assets (food, tools, weapons, property), and discussed repurposing tools and materials. He highlighted estate sales as sources for quality American-made tools and equipment, and stressed the importance of documentation and knowledge preservation before internet infrastructure fails.

Constitution, you know the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny Not the hunt to protect yourself from the police anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless people that want to literally create the proven places Innocence are killed called gun-free zones. We're gonna beat you out of office or sucking my machine Politicians, okay, just get any blunt objects together. All right, if you get corners Fashion in the head, that seems to work. Keep together, stay sharp and follow me. 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's 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 trade it 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. 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'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children? to live in fear and be a slave. O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right, we only watch him 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'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave, dill the land of the f- Remember your training and you will come back alive. Well, here anyway. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report time our currently One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories Southwest North Northeast and Northwest Ladies and gentlemen you were listening to us on liberty3radio.4mg.com, liberty3radio.com satellite, and we are on AM&FM micro stations, AM&FM conventional stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet. Hallmark in golden spike technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. It is a beautiful warm spring to summer day. Well actually it's June 3rd so I should tell you something right there. It's supposed to be warm, but it's been pretty medium temperatures across the board. Nice weather. Perfect to get the garden going. Third of June, also again Thursday, it is the 13th year of open Sabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2021 older calendar, 2021 battle for the Republic. The Dance of Swords, 5.07 PM Eastern Standard Time in the bottom of the state of Michigan. Anyways, Thursday. And for the bad guys, remember you're wanting to bring them into the kill zones that you develop when the time comes. We aren't going to be pitter-pattering to their song or dance. But rather you need to be planning ahead and choose the battlegrounds, the places where you want to fight and where you can effectively decimate and then annihilate whatever it is that you engage. You need to know your terrain. You need to know you, in fact, mapping is one of the most critical items that you could possibly achieve right now. You need one person in your group, one person whose task it is to collect physical mapping. I don't care where you find it for free, but you should always get whatever you can when it's free. Example, I guarantee right now that although they may grudgingly try to not give it away because shame on your peasants for thinking you're going to get something for nothing, although they were planning on giving it away for free, most all of the hospitality stops that are along the international highways, the interstate defense highway network, and your state highways usually have free state maps available. Here's the cute part. They have last year's maps and they probably have a pile of this year's maps because, well, they've got federal and state money for this every year and during the quarantine slash they will execute you if you're on the highway. That was the fear of everybody anyway. conditions of last year, little to nothing was handed out because remember under the Corona beer scam, guess what? All those hospitality sites for the most part were shut down. However, the cases and cases and cases and cases of last year's maps showed up. The advantage, they're all free. If you ask, you could probably get a case of them. And the reason? Well, they don't like to see things go to waste. Plus, the server they get rid of them, the server they make room for the other ones that are trying to jiggle around. Normally, they have a stock rotation. You can help to make that happen. So free roadmaps, free topo maps in some cases, it depends on where you are. Some of the park arrangements send special courtesy maps and little brochures that have a lot of mapping information in them. You need to get copies of those. And you get extra copies too so you can make up bundle map packs for local tactical operations. You don't need to know about the rest of the world. You don't need to know about most of the United States. Everybody, first and foremost, listening focuses on just their backyard. Very quickly, we have all of the overlapping mapping necessary to get the job done. Now, we still need topo maps. And as we pointed out, GPO, Government Printing Office, does generate and is supposed to generate physical maps. Electronic is nice but remember in a World War 3 battlefield scenario, we... Oh, that's right, EMP. And so conventional 150,000 and other scale maps are available over the counter. You do have to pay for those, but they are priceless. Now one of the things that you need to do is study these maps and also use the enemy support systems that they've provided. What? Yeah, you know, like Google Map. Google Map also provides you with Google's satellite image and also Google Street. And I've told you many, many, many, many, many, many times, without you having to leave the keyboard, you can do a quick reconnaissance of your area and start to familiarize yourself with the roads that half the time you've probably never traveled in your area. But you can do it in high speed. You can do 120 miles an hour on the Google Maps system, can't you? And go from point A to point B like you have a Star Trek teleporter. And look at that, he's already in another intersection. However, I would recommend that you kind of drive down the road even though it is going to be pretty quick for you faster and you would actually drive the automobile, which is a good thing because you're saving time. Remember you may spot tell tales. It's amazing, remember they just pick up real time images. People along the road, signage, special, how about piping and exhaust ports and hubs for communication or power, all kinds of different connectors and boxes and little sheds and shacks that maybe you didn't even realize were there because you weren't paying attention. It's funny how when you watch that, they actually jump out. Mostly because you don't have the in-depth imagery, but rather, you know, it's kind of like your first mental process with television is foreground. And mid-ground is about as far as you go with any real concern. So it's fascinating that because of that, when you usually go to... a digital representation that is an accurate image like that, you still have a tendency to collect more real data of close contact points. When you're on the road, you're usually doing what is kind of a cursory 70 to 80% survey while you're driving. Why? Well, because you're driving usually, and if you are the driver, you have to pay attention to everything, but you're paying attention more from the tactical motion perspective as opposed to the absorption of data as in close detail. So the other nice thing, you're sitting down, don't have to worry about cars piling into you or people using cell phones running you off the road or smacking into your head on as they roll over the middle line and you know in ignorance and stupidity create an automotive you know shipwreck. So the good thing is you can do this with the other side paying for it. Well, eventually they're going to shut it up. And of course, they're using it as a spying system too. We understand that. Well, use it in reverse order. Use it on them the way they think. They're going to use it on you. Oh, that's right. Remember when they had the little BLM and N-FIFA protests down there in the bottom of Ohio, just east of Cincinnati? Basically, everybody was able to jump on Google Maps as we were doing it right there on the air. and physically observe the areas that were being described where the incident was developing. Now it wasn't any on-time imagery of what was happening with the participants, but it gave you a perfect visualization which is something that is priceless in a combat situation. With mapping, you have to use your imagination, and it is necessary that you do so because you have to read a topographic map. You have to interpret and mentally do the math to calculate rolling terrain, bends in the road, where vertical control points are, bridging, etc. And then all of a sudden, here you are with this Google Maps spy system and utilizing it so that you can go, Bob, When we get to the intersection of 14 and Schmidlap Highway, you notice there's a fixture or something like a little revetment off to the side. Now either they're going to be there first or we're going to take control of it. Do you understand that? That little position right there gives you command of that intersection. So whoever gets there first, and I'm sure they're not thinking about it, gives you the ability to put a squat in place that could actually do some major band damage when the time comes. So you're able to do a quick evaluation of both the shallow and as I said medium depth detail work that otherwise would require a lot of advanced ground pounding reconnaissance. Now you're still going to do the reconnaissance because the imagery just gives you the basic perspective, you know, the idea of, you know, who's doing the zoo and what's where. But you've got to get there and your recon unit now has a better understanding. Okay, see this image? I'm passing it on to you. Go to Google Earth, there we go, go to this location, here's the address, drive east on Schmidlap Highway. When you get to this intersection, observe the southeastern corner, do a sweep of the area approximately a quarter to half a mile, come back to the intersection, confirm that that area is unoccupied, secure temporarily until an advanced squad moves to your position and takes over the position. then you proceed in reconnaissance down Schmidlap Highway and proceed to identify any further threat using Overwatch technique and understanding that you're going to probably make contact with the group that's attacking Bob's arm. At some point, you're going to make contact. Reconnaissance elements should try to avoid that, but if for whatever reason you are set upon, you are the point of contact for the initiation of hostilities. So reconnaissance forward, reconnaissance post, and the rest is history as they say. So another couple of things here to consider is again with mapping is making multiple copies. One of the things that I did years ago, I've got like about 200 copies in black and white of an expanded version of the 1 to 50,000 scale maps for the area where we are. What I did is oriented the copy photocopy. So that our property is in the middle and then all of the other imagery for so many miles out is North, South, East, West. And this allows for orientation for response and also for operations if you were securing an area. If you have any retreats or fortification bunker complexes, etc., etc., take your pick. Whatever it is you want to call them. You want to have effective mapping for the entire area as you have more people working in the redoubt and working with the force, the operation. Everybody needs to be on the same page with regard to mapping. And so in advance, you know you're going to need it. So you crank out a certain amount of black and white. These are just simply white page, black line that will not provide you with the color detail. However, you can do that if you go to any photocopy shop. Color, I know you can print them on your printer, but be honest. Okay, most of the photocopy companies do a better job. And one of the things you can do while you're there is laminate the individual 8.5 by 11 pages that you're going to correct. You're going to go through them, orient them, correct them to your position. Once you're done, now that they are set, then you copy. and then you laminate, then you file. You have a file ready to go. In fact, you can also pre-deploy at security points, vertical control points, LPOPs. You should have mapping there at every location, always. In fact, that mapping is used most of the time for simple orientation when in communication with the base of operations. If the LPOP is monitoring, They should be using the exact same map and everybody should be on the same page, literally, when they are conversing and discussing the disposition of an enemy aggressor or a suspected force or just motion and activity in your area of operation. Mapping is critical. And again, protractors, don't forget, throw a bucket of pencils in there, erasers, compass, all kinds of the fun stuff from the Dollar Tree. So that you have the ability to, for instance, call out for indirect fire down the road, it's going to be kind of handy to have the tools to be able to establish, for instance, points of reference for mortar fire. Now, we talked about this yesterday. It doesn't have to be the very, very, very sophisticated stuff you have today. Remember, most of the less sophisticated mortars still had set and specific distances for adjustment, point of impact, etc. and maximum ranges. So what you want to be able to do is based on the orientation of your indirect fire support, which by the way moves every once in a while, you don't just leave them the same location constantly. Your tubes move, but your dummy gun tube, your gun tubes or mortar tubes are set up to replace your primaries to create the illusion that you've never left a position. Always remember this. This is why piping, a little bit of welding, and again, still making a sophisticated dummy that in reality actually could be used for light work, but it's the idea that the dummies are left in place Therefore, when the enemy is doing surveillance, overhead surveillance, security operations, or they're trying to observe before they act, they may have a high confidence that your indirect fire weapons have not moved, albeit nothing really super heavy. It's not like we're talking 155 main guns, but it's the idea that they see high confidence. There's equipment, material. Spares in terms of ammunition already preset. The tubes are still sitting there. Even a few dummies here and there, a few bodies that are moving around. In fact, every once in a while, you move the dummies around without being too obvious about it. Remember, be discreet and be creative. The idea behind this is that, again, keep the bad guys guessing, and if at all possible, get them to expend munitions that otherwise would have been put to task in a more effective way. That's what deception is for. It's designed to misdirect and therefore hopefully bleed resources. Your enemy's deeper in equipment and material in the heavy grade than we are. So we have to be better at what we do. Just that simple. Now, a couple other things here. By the way, bottom of the hour break, which is, if you take a few minutes, UDO, I give as good as I get. And if we could, we'll play that when we get here. We've got a few more minutes here. But meanwhile, you know, I haven't done this enough.

And don't forget the links. Forbidden knowledge is hooked up there along with others. And I'll tell you right now especially, there are a couple things happening. How many people have been paying attention to the real estate market? Does anybody know what happened the last two days? Especially in the metropolitan, any of the city areas, metropolitan areas, the city, you know, city parts of your state. Guys, the, if you want to call it the bubble burst, I just figured the shipwreck just became more apparent. Values on properties went down by two thirds in many cases. Properties that were, you know, jacked up to anywhere from $150,000 to $200,000 a unit, dropping down to anywhere from $47,000 to $52,000. If it's in the city or inner city, there is stuff everywhere. The writing is on the wall. Most nobody wants to be part of the woke nonsense. Everybody's tired of the BS with the I want it free or your stuff should be mine. And so it's like, well, I'll tell you what, why don't you just take it all? Goodbye. In fact, vampires cannot feed upon vampires. So the only problem is that the succubus will be following you out to wherever you go eventually. It's none of its just went. This is true with government and it's true with regard to the parasite socialists. In fact, it's even the problem with California. Oh my God, California, it's so terrible. So all the leftists who pissed in the pool, and I mean Silicon Valley, those turds, are now trying to run to Texas. Well, what do you think they're going to do in Texas? Do you think that the Silicon Valley turds, excrement, and silt are going to make Texas a better place or are going to try to make Texas California? You know, I would say your best choice is to shoot the bastards and be done with it because otherwise again vampires cannot feed upon vampires It is inevitable that they will turn their red bloodshot Mmm snake eyes towards you which they already are doing so again We're almost at the bottom of the hour if we could you deal I give as good as I get. And for everybody, if you haven't watched the video, there's a couple really cool videos. One person did a really interesting thing if I'm using it. In fact, here we go. We're going to take a break. We'll be right back. Remember, when you're in the fight, try to warn them. Don't do it. They're doing it anyway. I've got to beat their ass down. We'll be back. And we are back. Ooh, sorry about that. And it is a beautiful Thursday here on Liberty Tree Radio and across southeastern Michigan. And the sunshine is out. However, we got clouds to the south. And I would pretty well figure we're going to get some kind of starmolage later in the evening. So pay attention if you're traveling tonight. The roads, I'll tell you something. having been traveling a lot in the last couple of months again. I mean, we haven't been actually through the whole of the scam-demic. We stayed on the road constantly. It was one of the, some of the best driving I've done in years, decades. Nobody was on the road. After eight, nine o'clock, the roads were absolutely barren and empty. The only thing is that also, at least when this first started, we were still into the 2000s. That's all changed. I don't know if you guys have been paying attention. We're now back to 1969 and 1970 for most businesses. Guys, if you don't get stuff done by 9 o'clock, you ain't getting it. In a lot of places, example right here where we are, and half of this has to do with people not getting above their dead ass to do any work. McDonald's is closing at 9 o'clock in our area. That's 1969, guys. You know, in the 70s, actually, 68, 69, 70 is when everything started to go over to, we're going to stay open until 11, or midnight, or maybe, oh, wow, a 24-hour store, you know, admirer's, shifty takers. Guys, they're closing at 9 o'clock. They're closing at 9 o'clock, okay? That's... rolling back 40 plus years, actually 50 years. That's the equivalent to what's going on because of the economy, but also as talking to the girls or the managers or at the window, it's like the, and McDonald's is not your first choice of every place to be, but it's no different from everywhere else. I would estimate that if you were to drive down the road as we've done several different tours to go out and pick tools up from some of you that were listening or grab other pieces of equipment or drop stuff off for some of the militia groups. When we've been traveling, everywhere is a hiring sign. I mean everywhere. I mean if you get to a town... You will find now hiring, hiring now, hey, come on in, 16, 50 an hour, 20, no, it's no $20 jobs if they're there, they don't have to advertise. But you know, like, you know, 11.95 an hour at McDonald's or $11 at McDonald's or $12 at Burger King. And this is not just those places, but all the regular businesses, manufacturing, down the road every place that has manufacturing in the area if they're open. I'll tell you one of the reasons why McDonald's is not filling that shot, I mean filling that job, you know what I mean dad? They want you to have the shot before they employ you and they make that known. I know a couple of people who are up here who are looking well not well up here for me but you know down here for you they're looking for jobs and they've applied at McDonald's but they won't work at McDonald's because McDonald's is requiring them to prove that they've got the COVID shot. Oh right well yeah if you see here they're just desperate for employees but what's fascinating is if that's the case no I agree they know in hell if the effect I would argue right now that to experiment, I believe that this is where because it is a jobbers market, it's a workers market really, to experiment with the, you know what, you're advertising, you'll hire somebody for 16 an hour, I'll work for 13 under the table. Just think of me as Juan or We're Gay, okay? Or, you know, Jesus. How do you like that? And the reason I say that is because they need the manpower. And there are all kinds of creative ways they can work the books. And right now, with everything as barren as it is, there's two things happening. A, they don't have the manpower. And part of that, the branch of that is just people that want to work. Or they aren't going to take the shot. Everybody's pretty well up to speed on that. The scammers at the CDC have admitted that seven out of 10 people are already smart enough not to take it. They make it sound like it's the other way around. The CDC has admitted that 7 out of 10 people have not taken or will not take the shot. But they're trying to tell you, we're trying to get to 70 percent. Remember that's the number they keep saying? Guys, they aren't anywhere near that. They've admitted that. They're not anywhere near it. Everything is like everything else about the coronavirus scam. And it's an absolute stinking lie. Nobody trusts the bastards. Nobody believes the bastards. And, well, everybody believes, oh, we don't want this. Yeah, well, I'll tell you what. You stuff it up your hind end sideways. Because as far as I'm concerned, like I said, it's like, whenever I see any of these characters in front of a podium and it has anything to do with the government right now, here's what I hear. It's like, listen, I'm in the Charlie Brown episode, okay? Remember how the adults sounded? Oh, these aren't adults. These are just reverse it. Worthy adults and the fruit loops, the liars, the thieves and the skanks all sound like, So the interesting thing about this though is that right now you probably could market yourself quite effectively under the table if you pay attention and you know use common sense with you know the person that you're talking to there it's like hey I've done that job before yep I know how to do that many times I'll tell you what I'll come in and do it for $13 an hour and I don't want to work full-time I'll say I'll work for 30 hours a week for you And that way there's not too much of a, you know, it's not hard to be able to figure out how to make 30 hours of, you know, worth of, you know, employment, money, disappear in some side bar, you know, creative bookkeeping excuse, trust me, they already do it. So in this case, it's just as if it being Juan, Jorge, C.B. Pei, Jesus, whatever. Instead, it's going to be, you know, Fred's mid-lap, you. It's that simple. But again, that's a matter of attitude. The other consideration is this. Hell, if you're really smart, you'd be doing that anyway trying to market yourself to an under-the-table job. If you're receiving the money from the government, then you're really double tapping. And that is something that you might use really, really, really should be trying to do. At this point in time, no matter what, if you have the ability to do side jobs, side work, or anything where it's off the books, and you're being paid to be home because the companies can't get the tools, parts, and assemblies that they need, which is what's happening right now with the other half of the industries out there. They can't get finished materials because they bought into NAFTA and GATT. And when they bought into NAFTA and GATT, it was going to be on time delivery because we're just like Japan. Remember we argued this 30 plus years ago, we're not like Japan. Japan had on time delivery when they pushed that crap. They could have say Hashimoto, Ochiso, Aiso, and Nakkei, come here. and pick up these boxes and follow me and I'll pick this box up. And we go two blocks down the street, walk into the other factory in Japan, which is a fairly small country, and a lot of this compact industry, it's all close distance, well that's fine with on-time delivery. If something happens where you just all of a sudden have to make it neat. But that's not true of a country the size of the United States. And on top of that, add to that say, combative economics, which is what we are facing and have been facing for decades. It's just now they're able to start to tweak the game. Whoa, you know, yeah, I understand. Yes. What do you mean you can't deliver? What do you mean your machines aren't working? What do you mean you don't care about a mill? USA? USA? You don't like us? No, we don't like you. And we are going to cut off your goodies. In fact, we can do a piecemeal and not even make it look like we're just chopping you off. All it took was certain components to be blocked and whole industries have now been stopped. That's all that was it was necessary look at the business figure out what the key components are that can affect how many different industries and not Provide it what happened to the American industries? Why she's a go ahead call her Jim in there, please Well, I was gonna say mark God, you know get as much money as you can from these employers and stop paying income tax claim nine dependents and Stinking don't don't pay. I mean, what are we getting from our money anyway? So just stop Stop paying income tax forget that stuff man. And I understand that that's Yeah, well, it's all gonna say is hold on how much how much sales tax your I have every time Every time I buy something like that dumb bullets from you guess lab you mentioned the other day from a center, no not center, fire firm, Atlantic, Atlanta. Well geez, I bought the case and what am I paying in sales tax? So I'm paying taxes, but I'm not gonna be paying those income. I'm just a bunch of crap. So I'm getting as much as I can from these employers. Well, but the problem is, okay, the problem is that the employer is obligated as a de facto agent to withdraw the taxes that they, or anything that they can, which you and I will never see. Example, look at how they're acting about Social Security. Now Social Security is a pay-in cash can where you and I have literally an account. Now all of that's been askew, it's been stolen, they've lied about it, they've intentionally fragged the system. realistically, with all the things going right now, you and I will never live to see or get close to any of that money. By the time we do, they'll be bitching about how, oh, how dare you, you know, you're an old person, how dare you take from Social Security, we need to give that to the foreign, the foreign nationals, which is what they've been doing, by the way. We need to give that to the illegal aliens, which is what they've been doing by the way, but you who paid into it and by the way who are a Contractor because it is literally like a contracted. Well, it is an extended de facto at gunpoint Obligation that is created where the employer has to take that out You don't even get an option on that if you go under the table if you were to drop back by 10 or 15 percent There are two advantages to this number one. You aren't going to pay any taxes You're also not going to pay or leave lose any of your money going into the system An example when I went into the University of Michigan not only do I pay Social Security and pay all the other taxes They know because they they made that mandatory there a state entity There are a private but a state and he always loved that that's a epic unto itself However, here's the thing. I also had to I didn't have any choice which was cool, but they thought it'd be fine I went with the basic simple retirement package where for every dollar I put in they put a dollar in. So I went with the minimal but average amount and the idea was that as they promised you, just like they did with Social Security, hahaha, but for as long as the sun shines and the river flows they're not going to touch that money. Well guess what's been happening for the last two years? We're starting to see negative points on the return. How is that? Because I'm in what is called a locked-in program. There's no speculation. Ah, but what's happened is the parasites during Trump's administration and the parasites now have all argued that they can alter the contract separately and they can start to interfere with where that locked money is, that retirement money is that we put into play. And of course, at the very least, I should get just the base amount out. My logic here is that we'll never even see the base amount by the time they're done You're not supposed to argue about it. You can't we all can't pay in at gunpoint just like Social Security and it progressively with Social Security another example is Decades to go when this was implemented. Well, hell this is 2021 Okay, almost a century ago. Not quite but almost a century ago when this was implemented It was mandatory to pay in. It was all you're all going to be protected. They gave you the you know the age you know they kept they started out with a set age and they kept moving it out farther and farther and farther and farther to the point where those who paid in had to work a little longer work a little longer and work a little longer and meanwhile they cracked open the vault from way in the back over in the corner they busted into the bank and started pulling the money out the back end of the big pile and you weren't supposed to notice it to the point where the Fed, the state, the government, the police state, I'm not saying state isn't the state of Michigan, they got their share of this too. But the feds have stolen from Social Security repeatedly when it was stated uncategorically that the reason it was going to be so wonderful is that the Fed couldn't do that. So anything that you if you could do it off the books and that's why I said it's a percentage about six to eight to ten percent less From the employer off the books then you're not going to pay any of the state mandatory You're not going to pay any of the unemployment mandatory You're not gonna and you just tell them flat out a and I'm also not going to be full-time I can go somewhere else and market myself for the difference if I want a 40-hour workweek But it's enticing, you got to remember, what you're doing is negotiating a new contract with the employer, understanding that you have the skill, you understand how to do the job. No, I don't want any overtime. No, I don't want to work for you anything other than 30 hours. And that's that way you don't have to worry about somehow some flare going up or some flag going up because you're, oh, you're shoveling money out to me. Because I guarantee that, you know, heartbeat, you really wouldn't be any... you're not going to protect me. So instead, common sense is to go to different cherry trees and pick. Do 30 hours at one, you know, just at the baseline, better than just minimum wage. And go to another source, try to go around, shop to see who will do this, and find another 10 hours. No, I'll tell you what, I can work a day for you at a time. guarantee I'll be here every Monday, I'll be here whenever you do, whatever time you want, you know, you figure out what, you tell me what your work schedule is, and I'll do a day's work, and I'm gone. Well, can't you feel it? Because I'll guarantee what would happen, and what does happen is this. Well, can't you work a little longer? Can't you come in another day? Can't you, you know, which maybe you do want to. But you also want to sample the environment to see what's going on and how they might try to play you. See, this is the tit-for-tat, you know, negotiation thing that's going on. And right now, this is a rich environment. This will not last. See, because here's the thing, guys. We're headed towards a depression. We're headed towards, I don't even think they'll be able to call it a depression this time. I think it's going to be called just, like I said, it's a shipwreck. There's nothing they can do to fix this, and there's nothing, even if they were to go to war, this can't be fixed this time. This is far worse than the depression. The depression was fabricated and created intentionally. That was absolutely step by step, buttons pushed, levers pulled. It really is happening now, but it's on such a scale that it's not fixable. So right now what you're trying to do is tailor it so that through the minefields that are out there that are trying to become permanent, you have the ability for the moment to weave your way through all of that, acquire the resources you need, Husband those digits and turn them into physical wealth as quickly as possible. That's food. That's tools. That's weapons. That's munitions. That's property. That's you know vehicles. That's you know tactical equipment. You know if you're going to be developing other things aircraft Armor trucks take your pick whatever you want to do first take care of your own needs One of the things I do every day, and I've done it religiously here, is I at least do something with the garden no matter what, or with the plants no matter what. Today, I restructured another 40 tomato plants, did a whole bunch of other work on repotting stuff so it's mobile. And I just have a percentage so that if need be I can move it from one site to another and still have some food production and even expand on it once I move it, I can also reestablish. But it's the idea that if it's cheap you get a lot of it Don't let it go to waste try to make every piece work if you lose some of it when you got a lot of it for free You're also not going to cry as much Okay, something to think about you got a bunch of free or cheap plants you lose maybe three four or five or maybe let's say ten percent You're not out anything because you've got more plants in theory you needed But in reality if you if you're creative there are several different ways that you can continue production and take advantage of everything that you've acquired. But it's got to be a share time thing. That's the biggest problem right now. There's a lot of big projects that need to be accomplished. There's all kinds of other daily routine work that needs to be done. And it all has to be integrated in, you know, integrated accordingly. Now, you also have that job we were just talking about too. At a given point, you need to prep everything so that when you walk away, when they shut the door on you, it's not you shutting the door on them. At a given point, the hammer is going to fall here with regard to the traders and what they're doing to America. This is a bad season for them to try and do it, by the way. And the reason I say that, hold on for a second, caller, is ideally when you're waging war on the population economically, you want to hit them just before the harvest. So you can destroy or, again, alter or misdirect the harvest so it's not where the people can access it. Do you want them going into winter when they got to worry about freezing or eating? You take their jobs away completely. You take away their reserves, whatever they have. You lock the bank down. What did FDR do? The banking holiday. What did he do? Shut all the banks down. What did that say? Nobody had, everybody was fucking vapors. That was the commie FDR that did that crap. People lost every penny they had in the bank, period. Not kind of, not sort of. Every last stinking penny. In fact, they had the safety deposit boxes. And TV in Hollywood tried to push this crap for years. Well, these safety deposit boxes are just like sacred and the Fed, not even the Fed can touch them, my ass. When the Depression hit, and just after in 33 when the Commie FDR came in, and they had the banking holiday. They came in and red-caped every safety deposit box. And then the parasite feds and all these other de facto agents of the crown of foreign agents like the FBI, which is registered in the Caribbean, came in, opened, had the bankers with their keys, opened up every safety deposit box, and they stole everything. They stole everything. Bankers afterwards when clients came in to go look through their pitiful little safety deposit drawer Because a lot of them just had a drawer. They'd open the drawer and everything was gone wedding rings jewelry gold currency stocks bonds deeds to property and It was all done by all these parasitic bottom-feeding these pieces of gutter trash and fed it fed agencies Now you should have shot their ass then it should have and a lot of people were ready to do it and again because some people we Well because of that they went through and continued with their raping killing pillaging and burning This time around just remember piss on the the dudes piss on the field day on the field deal idiot like the banker He had he can't do score squat Just like all these companies and businesses, they've got licenses and contracts and all this stuff and they come in and threaten them and they have no intestinal fortitude and no strength. There's really no ability to resist because they didn't really have it in their mind. So when the Fed comes in and rapes, kills, pillage and burns, steals everything with all these mechanisms that were supposed to be, oh so safe. Well, there's nothing anybody could say about it. Unless you're ready to like walk out when they're in the bank and then meet them as they're coming out and string them up right in front of the bank, which is what's going to happen this time. You know, guys with guns ain't going to make any difference because everybody's pretty well-fated retired to the guys with guns that are all these characters, these agents in government uniform. That's where everybody is. There's nobody has any kindness for them or anything good to say about any of them. Half the battle is getting everybody to the point where they're just finished with them. Don't like the internationalists. Don't like the big government that we got right now that's riding with them. All of them are in the crosshairs, which is where they should be. But the fact of the matter is that when they do shut that down, what happened during the Depression, 1929, during the fall, my grandfather went to work. Guess what? Gates were locked. They told everybody, guys, we can't use you. We don't have any money. I can't pay you. And there ain't nothing moving. So we'll call you back when we can. So everybody was laid off for five weeks with no warning. They opened the gates. And they said, OK, we're going to come back to work. But everybody has to come back to work at 1.5 your original wage. You hear that? Now, your bills didn't change. But everybody gets to come back to work for one-fifth their original wage. And because everybody was kind of hungry, everybody agreed to it. You know what happened five weeks later? They fired everybody, laid everybody off again, fired them all, and went and just hired whoever was on the street because the labor pool was now in the, it was now a business slash a jobbers market from the other side, and the people who run the businesses. And they found out that while they were paying everybody a fifth of the wage that they were before, then they realized that first of all, they weren't, there wasn't enough to sell. And on top of that, they could pay people even less, just not those people. See how that works? Now, as it is, the other problem is we got communism going on here. Guys, this is the epitome of communism. I don't have to work. I'm on the dole. I make 40,000 a year just sitting home, comrade worker. Right now, you people are embracing absolute Soviet socialism. However, it's the flabby shallow that can't last very long. Because even the Communists had to make sure that they could crack the whip to make their slaves do something. Sitting at home and absorbing resources isn't producing anything. It's not an if, it's just a when the hammer falls on this. But they've got everybody into into potato head mode if you think about it watch out for your eat drink and be merry I can play Okay, we have $40,000 kind of for free. What did you do with it by house by land? Do something with it so that you convert it to something first before you eat you can go play the ant in the grasshopper You can be the grasshopper for a little bit provided you first work as the ant And then, as the grasshopper, you can go a little bit and play grasshopper and play with the boat and, you know, enjoy the snowmobile. But if you'll notice, nobody has that mindset. I guarantee you, beer sales are probably really great right now. What do you think, guys? Beer sales are a real way up. Party hardy, man. Whoa! Guaranteed. Anyway, call or even be a real patient. Jump in there, please. Yeah, I think you're right about the partying. But we work for a company that sub contracts these big, big builders up north here. And they are in such a mad rush to finish the projects they're in right now. And I'm going, OK, great. That's great. What do you got on the horizon? Nothing. They got nothing in the horizon. This has never happened in the 30 years I've been doing this. I've always asked, well, what's the next project? Well, we got something over here. We got something over here. Blah, blah, blah. You know, we got, we got plenty of work. Well, three out of the four companies aren't, as far as I know, they got nothing going after they, but they're really pushing to get these things done right now, but they can't find the carpenters to, to come in and do this. So they're in a bind and I do not know Mark, I do not know the reason why they don't have anything on their right. I don't know. Now you know real quick what you just said, understand something. This is the premise that they used for arguing in the 50s that on the one hand they wanted to deport, which by the way Eisenhower did. Okay, they deported a whole pile of people. But one of the arguments was, well, we don't have the tradesmen that we need and the regular base laborers to do this, this, this, this, and this. And that's part of, watch what they're going to do here. Oh, people, it's not that people aren't willing to work because we're on the communist welfare, the whole thing. No, no, no. We're short people. And this is why we need to make all these illegal aliens, we need to get more of them in the country so they can undermine the plasterers, the carpenters, and the plumbers, which by the way they were already doing, starting with after and getting the 90s, if anybody doesn't remember. Here in Michigan, they let whole swathes, just like the truck drivers. Remember here a few years back, about 70 years back, the Mexican truck drivers, when they opened up the tri-nation agreement to allow them to come into our country but us not to go into Mexico. Remember, we can only drive so many miles into Mexico, but the Mexican drivers could drive anywhere in the United States. Wreck somebody, see a car, wipe out a whole family, jump out of the truck, run off the road, go over to a vehicle or something that was waiting, and unask the AO and go back to Mexico over the border untouched. And so if you pay attention, you can hear what old peto meat puppet slash sniffer is doing. Oh, no, it's not we're not paying people not to work. Yes, you are. But part of the method to the madness is that you can then turn around and say, you know, it's that we're just don't have enough. Just regular laborers. But if we bring all these foreigners in who, by the way, will well be used for fodder for the the fake election the next time around. Oh, well, we can get things back on the road. And here's what's cute. They give them de facto papers to work as illegal aliens inside the United States after they come out of that courthouse. Now, might you remember they're illegal aliens, and they come out with a clipboard, they got cash, they got a check, they have an airline ticket or a bus ticket to take them anywhere in the United States away from the venue where they're supposed to be coming back to court, which, by the way, they never will. Come back to court and then in the process. Well, what are they what are they doing when they get in the other end? Well, they're not stupid actually then they turn around they become part of the undocumented labor force So they undermine all the rest of the semi skilled and skilled labor force that's out there because they can do Plastering and to a degree they can work as a board beaver. They may not do a great job You're all maybe off by five inches You know, from the top to bottom as far as plums. We got one. We have a house in Chelsea, I could take it to you right now, that was put up with, you know, Juan Labor. And you know what they had to do? They had to put curtains from the very top of the ceiling to the floor when they put the curtains in the windows, because otherwise you can see them because it's gravity sucks. Your plum is the curtain. the bottom of the curtain is five inches away. The center of the curtain is five inches from the wall. The curtain at the top is next to the wall. Now what does that tell you, caller, about your square? You know, I do what that means. But you know what? They let them get away with it. That's what gets me about this you see and it's that no by the way don't worry kind of like that seven bucks You know shovels the sand for one shovel a lime you know cement when it should be a three one or you know should be a two one and You know the inspector is gonna turn a blind eye because he got his brown envelope and by the way Juan's not gonna say anything because he's working under the table and We're gay and he'll he soos and you know and mid-life So that's the reason they're doing what they're doing to us. Go ahead. I'm sorry. There was something else, it's kind of on the same line, is that up here they advertise for that jab, you know, get the COVID, save your life, blah, blah, blah, get the COVID shot. So you know what they're doing now? They're saying the COVID should get the COVID shot, same commercial. And then they're saying, wear your safety belt. You know, it's they save lives so that their head screw and everybody playing this game like well get the cover. They'll save your life just like safety belt save lives So I mean, I don't know who they think you're pulling Here's a fun one. I had a girl that you know, I've talked said whatever you guys one was talking other girl Don't get the shot. The girl goes. Well, I think I had the corona beer virus twice and and I went and got the shot Well, wait a minute. Okay when I looked at her and I'm looking at the other girl who's rolled her eyes go up to the sky You know, I mean it's like she's rolling her eyeballs and it was like well, okay think this through if you had it once you probably didn't have it twice But if you did have it once or twice and by the way, you're very much alive Why would you bother to have a shot? Think about this. Well, how sick were you? It just sniffles. Okay, so you didn't have anything life threatening and there was actually no reason for you to get the shot because, well, if you know anything about basic, you know, science 101, you used to be in high school. Then you understand that your immunity, your natural immunity, everything kicks in, your defenses are in place. But the fact that you say you got it twice, you had one flu and then you had another flu. Neither one of them is the coronaviravirus to begin with because pretty much 99% of that is a lie. And then on top of that, you took the murder death kill shot. Oh, wow. But nobody does the math. It's like you first you have to have I guess that common horror math in the schools to get everybody stupefied with regard to the rest of this dribble. Anyway, we tell you what we got to do. Whoa, we got word 603 if my clock is right. We got to take a break though guys. So we're going to hear the music here real quick because the networks have got to be covered. I hope and we should be hearing the music any moment now. 603. Any moment. Oh, I hope I'm still there. Am I? Yes, there we go Well something strange going on with the the phone grid just like everything else guys. I think we've been talking about this for the last couple years It is sliding into oblivion. So you need to have alternate communications ready to go. You need to have the ability to be able to work on your own and deal with your needs because the system is not going to take care of you. It hates you. That's why they're bringing all these other people in because they hate you. God bless our republic. Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. and we're on the march post day and night. We're gonna get out of the way for the moment. We're taking a break. Grab a cup of coffee or sit back and relax. Second hour of the in show report coming up. It is Thursday. It's part of our Constitution. You know the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to hunt. protect yourself from the police. Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dead. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless. People that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones. We're gonna beat you. We're gonna vote you out of office or suck on my machine. Politicians. Together, alright. If you get corners, put the fashion in the head. That seems to work. Keep together, stay sharp, and follow me. The other night said, 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, speaking low to me. He said, We fought a revolution to cure 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 the land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's 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. This number, you trade it 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 won't be murdered. 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'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and eat God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom bright as Iowoki vanished in the midst from whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right, we only watch him 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'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? And the afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is the Second hour of the afternoon intelligence report, I'm Mark Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, east, northeast, and central. Ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, Liberty Tree Radio on satellite, and we are on AM&FM micro stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet hallmark in Golden Spike technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. Good afternoon to all of our friends out there, more 49 including the great state of Jefferson along with CONUS. The outlining two states and territories in the clock. It is 6 11 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. It's Thursday, just the third of June. The third of June on Thursday means absolutely nothing. And of course the 13th year of open in your face pissing on your back. Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2021 older calendar. 2021, battle for the republic, dance of swords. We gotta say and where I come from too, Senator. Don't piss on my back and tell me it's raining. Yeah. So anyway, beautiful day still and blue sky up above. Solar is running fantastic right now. All of our little solar lights are sucking in the juice so that they run virtually all night. We've actually I've got a pretty good system up there right now across the board with all of the cheapest solar lighting available, which by the way is now going up, the cheapest solar lighting. Dollar Tree still has some stuff. But some of the basic stores like Maynard's, Menards, or Home Despot, Home Depot. have their 99, what were their 99 cent or 98 cent yard lights. They're now $1.10, $1.12. So just again there, about a 10% increase in the cost. Like everything, you're seeing a little bit of a jump all coming from communist China, of course. One of the things you need to be ready to do is, I know everybody talks about being off the grid, But let me point out some of the things that were in big demand and short supply immediately. Cardboard. Now that sounds weird. Nobody goes, oh, of course he doesn't know what he's talking about. Let me ask you something. Have you had anything shipped recently by any of the Chinese companies? Have you had the package left on the porch but not where there's cover? Or have you had a cardboard box from China? And you decided that you'd go out in the rain with it, and it was a little wet, and you head out to the car, and it sucks in a little moisture. And while it's sitting there, it works like a sponge even after you got it out of the rain. And it literally disintegrates. Now, this is what we've talked about, those Chinese bean counters. They're even better than the ones we have over here, as far as for being able to strip everything out if they can, you know, with it all possible. And that is where they are right now with operations. And because of this, card stock for instance, card stock. I've always related this. My grandfather when the depression hits, like I told you about here, when they laid everybody off, nobody had anything. Nothing. Nobody had any money. You weren't buying new shoes. You weren't buying anything. So what my grandpa did, because he had been a cobbler, he taught to be a cobbler when he was very, very young before World War I. He kind of apprenticed towards that, but he went away from it and got into machining and became a tool and die man. Made some good money there. Anyway, oh by the way, he got laid off of everybody else though with the time game. Trust me on that one. Everybody got laid off. Everybody. It made everyone so, quote unquote, valuable you were to the company. They didn't think about that. Later on, they regretted it. There are problems that did develop, which would be expected. But as it is with the management system is now center buggies out on the street one of the things my Grandpa did when he go check on the job or when he'd be in town is he go behind the downtown Main Street area and he was looking for cardboard. No not corrugated cardboard. Cardboard as in cardstock. And what he would do is when he'd get home, you couldn't buy leather, you couldn't afford it. There was no two pennies to row together. If you had a dollar, you'd eat. If you had a $20 bill, you'd starve, because no one could make change. So anyway, he took the cardboard, cut out and made a print of the sole, and stuck that inside everybody's shoes that had holes running through the soles. Couldn't afford to buy another pair of shoes, and there were no other shoes to buy anyway. The machinery had stopped. The system was broken intentionally. Now even if they had product, you didn't have two dimes to rub together. And it cost a lot more than a few dimes anyway to get a pair of shoes. So that cardboard is what made all the difference in the world between, you know, feeling the gravel and snow under your feet. And it would last, oh, what he said, for about four days, five days. And it would be pretty rough by that fourth or fifth day, but you could cut so many mock souls out of the card stock, the heavy, heavy, heavy gauge card. And after a while, you can get another piece. So of course, he was always watching for more. My great aunt over in Battle Creek during the Depression, we went in and they'd take care of their estate. My grandfather on my dad's side, of course, became the executor. And in the stairway, since they had been there since before the Depression in the old farmstead, which by the way, the house went back to the early 1800s, going down the stairs on both sides, there were stacks of card stock, or at least it looked really interesting. It was like cardboard, you know, like what you see cracker boxes made out of. You know what it was? every box of the type of cereal like they bought cornflakes because Kellogg's of Battle Creek. Cornflakes were cheap. They were a cheap, cheap, cheap food back in the day. And then of course, you know, ludicrous like you see now. But what they would do is they wouldn't rip the box open. They carefully open the box and use the product and then they would fold the box with all the leaves open. and they would open it up and flatten it on itself. They wouldn't tear the glue well, they'd just leave it the way it was and they'd stack them on the stairway. And they had cracker boxes the same way. And my grandpa pointed at us, he goes, yeah, you know what, that's a fortune in cardboard back in 1929, 1930. He goes, we didn't have any. If you wanted to send a package, you couldn't afford boxes to ship stuff. That's what you would have been. If you had to make a letter, you took a piece of used paper that had print on one side and you had a form and you cut your own envelopes because that saved you so much in the way of what, a quarter of a penny. But you didn't have the penny to begin with. So if you're going to send a letter, what you spent your money on was the paper that you were going to send the message on. And the lighter the paper, the more sheets of paper you could put in the letter, so you could say more to whoever you were writing, depending on where they were in the country. Oh yeah. You wanted a shipping box? You know, that's another thing. You know, here's the thing. Everybody's going, well, I'm going to fix cars, or I'm going to do this, or I'm going to do that. How about newspapers? You think newspapers are going to be laying around? Well, I'll go get blah, blah, blah paper. Do you think that you're going to buy a roll of paper if the paper is not available? Just masking paper. You know, if you don't start thinking ahead about the perishables and stacking them up, you're not going to have them when you think you're going to do for yourself. Now, a lot of people aren't going to be able to pay you anything maybe other than chickens, eggs, or whatever, which by the way you take because better to eat well, I mean half of what you're making money for, just so you can keep yourself in food, right? But if you are going to trade in food, you better also have a plan for how do you store it. How can you make it usable? Example, pickled eggs. For instance, I'm going to get chicken eggs. OK, that's cool. But how long does a chicken egg last? Of course, if you're smart, you're not going to refrigerate them. You're just going to leave them on the shelf. But at some point, you're going to get more eggs than you know what to do with. So pickling them or using them in other modes is going to be a priority. How can you make it work for you? And again, take advantage of what you did trade in, which was transient and short term. Wealth can be short term, mid term, or long term. The more durable the wealth, the more valuable typically it is, but it varies depending on conditions. If you're all starving, food becomes far more valuable than gold. Right? I mean, desperately starving, where people will eat people. More important that you actually have the food. Now, with regard to all these ideas about fixing things, I'm going to point out you better have lots of sandpaper, you better have lots of drill bits, not one or two. You better be stacking and racking the stuff because they won't be making it anymore or you won't be able to access it from the places that we're making it because they're in enemy territory, you know, NAFTA and GATT. So, drill bits, saw blades, jigsaw blades, cut-off blades. How about you think you're going to be cutting wood? So how many bucksaw blades do you have? I would be buying more than a few chainsaw blades for your curious chainsaw and you better be watching for derelicts and spares people put out by the road. Why? Well if it's the same model you got, no not every part, in fact probably what wore off on theirs is going to wear off on yours. But you know what? All those other parts just in case something happens and so many bad things can happen. Kind of like repair on rifles. that all the spare parts that are on that chainsaw, if you match up the same saw, are good to have on the shelf because you won't be buying them from eBay anymore and you're not going to get them from any of these scam operations that are basically a representation of China Sport. They're not going to be bringing them in. If you don't have the money to spend, they aren't going to give it to you for free. And by the way, at some point everybody keeps arguing, they're going to be shooting at you. Do you think that the Chinese who have acquired all of this manufacturing that America was stupid enough to give away, do you think that they're going to be sending you drill bits or sandpaper or go through all the myriad of things that we've allowed the Chinese to have almost a complete monopoly of and our government made it happen? Now, prior proper planning prevents piss for performance. Watch estate sales and you know what's really cool about estate sales. I have equipment I would never have been able to own were it not for those estate sales If it looks like it has WROK attached to it Oh God, especially the ones are getting free money and sitting on their dead ass and drinking beer And partying hardy because it's ha ha ha party time Well the grasshoppers while they're doing that I'll give you an example. I picked up a quarter horse, blackened decker, industrial drill, new in the box, brand new in the box, never pulled out of the box, for $5 at an estate sale. Now I got a combination of things. I didn't just get that. For $20, I ended up with a couple of squares. I picked up a handful of saw blades that were brand new. I got, in addition to that, a handheld power screwdriver, never opened, still in the box, brand new. And by the way, American-made tools too, by the way. And again, a handful of drill bits. What else did I pick up from that one? And a handful of jigsaw blades, that even though I got. Okay, which were just like, yeah, well it's with all that stuff. And it's like, then I got back and I'm laying the stuff out and I had a, well, probably 15 or 20 jigsaw blades. Well, I'll use those because they snap so easily if you're not careful. Which by the way, here's another thing. Start being careful, pay attention and slow down and think through whatever you're doing the way traditional tradesmen always have. Because replacing your parts is going to be more and more difficult. Here's another thing. If you break a saw blade, how can you still use it in some other capacity? Axaw blades, best example. You know, okay, this blade snaps or it bends and distorts and you just can't get it to work right. Well, you break out a dowel, you cut a slot right through the center. And you make yourself a little cutout hand saw. And you make more than one of them as long as you have spare blades, or one. And you use it until you wear it out. But when you want to do little piece work on a piece of aluminum, or a piece of brass, or a piece of stock, you know what? Or you've got that little hand saw to do that little 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 But it also again you use it until it can't be used anymore and then once the steel is you know the you know say the teeth are broken and The stuff is dull It's either going to be steel stock for your forge or you're going to use it as a piece of steel to make something else example a lot of our guys take the Absolutely dead saw blades you got something else skill saw blade you got a tooth that's broken right off it well. What good is that? Well, we've got a couple of knife makers here who can make you three really nice skinning knives or a couple of nice real push daggers out of that steel and they don't waste anything. All little pieces and junk stuff that comes off it, they'll map out a cut so that one cut makes two items. That's a smart way to do things, but nothing goes to waste. If it's carbon steel and it looks like it can keep an edge, Anything and everything that you got, by the way, if you know what you're doing, you can make everything keep an edge. So there's an example of it. It is not going to go to waste. Again, first it's used for its original purpose and then it's repurposed. Here's a fun one, battle axes and broad swords. So let's say you don't know what to do much about making knives. You have an old skill saw blade? Is it a coarse blade? Not a fine cut. Well, they work too. You can grind those down and make them little blades all the way around. You know, where the teeth are, you can grind that down and make an edge all the way around the saw blade. But with a coarse cut blade, you just leave it the way it is. Throw a hole in a piece of hockey stick handle that you picked up because somebody was chucking out hockey sticks. and drill a hole through that, run a bolt through there, hammer, maybe drill one other hole down below the center hole, halfway between the center hole and the outer edge, and then drill two holes in that hockey stick and then bolt that sucker right to the end of that hockey stick and you got yourself a mayhem weapon. You lay it laying somewhere. In fact, you want to paint it, paint it, make it look tactical, or make it look subdued, or make it look like it's just part of the environment. But it makes for a pretty good battle axis and broadsword close-quarter emergency weapon. It might get stuck in somebody, but that's a good thing because that was what it was supposed to do in the first place. Right? That's good. That was what it's supposed to do, sir. Hang on to my saw blade for me. Oh, and the hockey handle too. If I can pull it out, I'll hit you three more times. But if I can pull it out, it's kind of an obstruction when it's stuck in your head, isn't it? Yeah, it probably is. Okay. So everything can be used and repurposed. We're not going to throw anything away. But the big thing is to have the perishables in quantity, no matter what you can find. I've actually piecemealed a bunch of, well, actually, it's not so much that it was by accident. It's just I buy everything in one particular model, and then you just eyeball for the same model parts at other estate sales. So I've put together a pretty extensive sander pack. with all kinds of unique sanding units. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have bought because it cost money. It did chunk of change. Porter cable, Makita, you know, Makita's not a big deal anymore. And none of the regular China support plastic drill systems, it's a flavor choice. How do you feel about it? You know, is it your favorite? But when you're looking at some of the American stuff that's laying around, and the fact that it's built back when American technology we were using American carbon steel, northern Michigan copper and the company itself was 100% American made there are some darn good pieces of machinery laying around out there. They definitely worth using. Okay, go ahead Colin. Hello Mark, I've got a question for you. Yeah. Since you have been picking up some of the Makita tools and products Now I got in on the first original 9.6 volt cordless blue color plastic my key to the old it comes with a country. Okay, okay. I've been running into them left and right. Yeah, okay, but the orange battery remember with the reddish orange batteries instead of the bot matching batteries Yeah, yeah, and those are perfect for piloting You know like you get your little drill bit in there You don't put a screw in unless it's something rough and it's soft 2x4 Okay, you go ahead and your pilot first with a teeny little drill bit right in the center with a fixed dick Like putting hinges in for instance man you get off out of center putting a screw in for a door hinge. Yep, okay Screw does not function the way screw is like a mirror and how that functions So what you want to do is you want to drill out and you want to pile it about slightly less than the actual shank size. Where the threads just go in and bite. So my question is, since I haven't bought it and I lost $30,000 with yacht joinery, cabinet making, but I lost man tools that are priceless and a storage room in your bed. Seven years ago, but anyway, this is what my question is all into all The Makita tools I've ever bought is that Japan on there? What are you seeing on say maybe some of the newer? Makita tools that you've run across oh Actually, I just got to complete drill packs. I mean they look like they're virtually new original early production Well, I mean for four dollars five dollars or in some cases the guy will able to move it for two yard sales So it's like give me a dollar So I've actually got a monster collection of all of these earlier Makita all matching all the same battery packs I've got a ton of the batteries battery packs still in the plastic and five dollars ten dollars and what I'm doing is I like old Porter Cable, older Porter Cable. We had built like a brick doghouse heavier than sand, but you know what? It works every time. However, the new thing is, the new affordable products... Excuse me, go ahead. No, no, they've gone down. I know that's why it's not. I'm always looking for the earlier tools. I just got a tradesman's saw with, you know, how you do a personal buy. You know how it works. It was an apprentice box. Everything, everything niched, everything tailored. I got it for $20 for the Porter Cable tradesman saw from I think looks like 1978. And it's all steel body. Yeah, and I got it for $20, but it's everything's on board. I mean, there's anything you could need. And in fact, I'm using that in a job right now. In fact, I've got two others that I've got to go through. I mean, some of them I just picked up and I just can't pass up. But what I've been doing is taking the Makita's and putting them all in one pile so they're all together. Remember they made the one Makita that is like it's a straight grill with an L. It's like an L head for getting the tight spaces. I got two of those with five batteries. That's going to be a newer model. What my big question mark is, is every Makita tool I've ever had and purchased was made in Japan. Superior quality. I am wondering if, if some of the Makita products now are being made in China. That is what my question is. They probably are because Japan has also been bringing in Chinese because their population is getting older. They don't like each other, they hate each other. They might smile and bow or wave or whatever, but they still have really bad blood that isn't going to go away for a long time. The problem is the Japanese haven't surrendered any critical production technology. I think they've done minor systems or what they consider expendables or perishables, but they don't surrender any of their cortex. So, the better industrial grade stuff appears to be pretty much still as it's been. And you can tell the difference. If you guys go look at the new stuff, I was kind of like, it's like a candy shop. You've got all the yellow tools, that's the wall. You've got all the blue tools, that's Makita. Well, it was Makita. There's some other color that you're going to now. And then you've got, what is it? Green, who's got green? But anyway, if you go through the wall, it's like, if you've got a wall of one color, yeah, Ryobi, right. And so with these, you go through and you look at them, if you really pay attention, get the earlier first generation, second generation battery powered units. The batteries weren't as good. That's the part where everybody says, well, why would I want those? The batteries wouldn't last as long, but that's because of the generation of battery tech that was being used. Now, when you rebuild those, you can bring them right up to 2021. So, use them until they die and then when you upgrade, you upgrade and now you've got it working just the same as the rest. But here's the thing, the gauge and the gauge of the material that they use for the plastic and the chip, I think is superior across the board. It takes a better hit, takes a chunk out of it. I think one of the things they've done is to catch your eyes to become stylish with the body of the tool. You can see this with port or cable. You can see this with all of them. Originally, Makito was streamlined. It was no more a big deal than it would be to make, say, a steel cast or forge, say, body for a drill or a saw or anything else. It would be, you know, if there were vents, the vents are there to help the motor breathe. If there's a hole, it's there for a reason. If you'll notice on the new tools, they've done the kind of Star Wars thing and that there's all kinds of neat stylization for the body. Logic is, if it's being made in China, the slaves will make all kinds of neat stuff for you for little or nothing. And so they've done a lot of unique moldings and stuff. They don't serve any purpose. It's nice that most of you, it does accommodate a certain amount of grip or control. Not much, but it's just unique and it looks neat. It looks cool. But it's not functional. It's not necessary. It's nothing that was essential. Now, on the other hand, a lot of it is structural gridding, so to speak. So I think that part of the real reason for it is since they've cheaped out and thinned out on the stock for the body of the material, they've compensated for that by creating, again, a latus, much like, guys, remember, everybody used to do bull barrels, and then somebody started doing extended long striation grooves in barrels and discovered that it strengthened the weapon. It strengthened the barrel. Nobody thought to do that. They always thought about doing cooling rings by cutting dollops and creating little, look like washer cuts in the barrel. Now that does help to cool the barrels down, but it turns out, and somebody said, let's do it faster and cheaper. We'll just make a big long cut from the end muzzle back to almost to the chamber. Well, lo and behold, when they started doing the research, you found out in slow motion that that actually made the barrel more rigid and the air goad brought the thing down to a tighter spec. So, you know, so I got no problem with them older kind of style vent-rib shotgun barrels. You know it's superior. You know what I'm talking about. It's got that solid rib under cut underneath That's a perfect sighting ramp right there. Add rigidity and adds for cooling With all the tools that we're talking about remember it ain't the razor it's the blades and Everything I don't care what it is watch for all the little little stuff when you want in fact you here's the nice thing you go to a Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist Anything you want guys, it's pretty much photographed. Now if you get good, you can honk an eyeball to the accoutrements. And you'll get good at that after a while. Start paying attention. When we go to the sales, it's like, ah, I recognize. I know what that is. Now you can look closer and you realize, oh, there's a calibrating tool. There's two or three other add-on extensions that they offered after the fact. And the guy who bought it had money because he was retired from GM, Ford, or Chrysler. Could have worked as an engineer. Might have just been a guy that knew how to run a business. But he bought good tools. And if you're smart, like, try to make a deal on the whole package. If you're especially looking at being able to run a small production operation, you can cherry pick out there right now and find pretty much everything you need. But I would say this, is there a grab box with a whole bunch of odd chucks, bits? Are you still there? Yeah, I can't hear Mark either. It looks like we lost him. Give him a second, guys. The connection where he's at seems to be... Flubbiting a little bit So yeah, I know why he was saying grab that odd box of chucks and stuff because odds are whoever sorted the stuff out for the sale Didn't know what the original owner had and the chucks to operate or change the heads and everything are probably gonna be in the box there I Don't know You know Mark will be able to get back up. It looks like he was mobile again. I'll see if we can You know in the business in the in the construction business everyone. I mean everyone has gone to cordless Mm-hmm you're paying you're paying a lot through the nose, but what a convenience What a convenience not to trip over that cord at the you know Listen to that compressor turn on So, I mean, everything is battery powered. So you're, and the main tool... Convenience maybe, but they don't run as long. Oh, these batteries we got? Oh my God, they're awesome. I mean, they're the top of the line and they got just as much power as the old, maybe not your table saw, you know, that's drawn that many amps. But it's not gonna run as good as something that's like phased or runs off of a large compressed tank of air. You're not as fuel efficient. You're gonna need more batteries. Batteries do burn out and something I would warn people to watch. You know, we hear all these We've heard all these words horror stories about what happens when some of these batteries explode and burn and you got to wait for them to go out you add water to the situation it makes it worse and what was it we had that Tesla car that exploded in California they try to put it out with with the fire department not knowing how to deal with the battery because it's a newer technology. Tried to put it out with water and all that did was make the... problem worse. So batteries are a cool thing. It's great that we have them, but you got to have a way to charge them. You got to have backups and it's nice to have something that plugs in. I mean, even if it plugs into the wall or if you make a plug yourself that you can hook it up to a car battery and run it off of this. It's a 12 volt at least. And even if it's a 24 volt, like some of these batteries, you can stack. your 12 volt batteries for like an automobile or whatever and get the voltage that you need you just have to do a little math in your head. Let's see we have Mark back yet. Wait and then see and still not see him Mark on oh there he is and maybe he can hear us maybe he can't looks like he's unmuted. Mark do we have you? I will try doing this and I will try doing that and see if we get him back. It does not look like we did so I'm gonna Try one more thing and we'll see if we can all right There we go. And now it looks like he's off the board. So hopefully he'll come back in here real quick Yeah, but anyway, I was I was out of the room So I don't have a complete grasp on the subject that you guys were talking about other than you guys were talking about tools When I came back you guys did it dad just started talking about the trucks in the box and they always talking about The equipment and stuff that you guys can buy Well, I'm pretty sure it is state sales, right? That's what he was talking about Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what he was kind of saying my dad loves estate sales You go find all kinds of cool stuff there Go ahead you got you got all that in Ann Arbor area. I mean he's got somebody of those Sales a go-to in that area because you got so many homes and this and that It's not just an Arbor, of course, you're in Michigan. I don't know what part of Michigan you're in but Sad to say, you know, there's always people dying and a lot of the people A lot of the family members that are out there don't necessarily respect what their elders have done or set up for them. And rather than deal with it, they'll turn around and chuck it. So yeah, even out in the country, your small towns, in fact, small towns, they have businesses when somebody passes away. And watching the estate sales, you'd be amazed at some of the stuff that you'll find that family members, you know, who have moved out of the area but their relative past and have moved, have come back to sell the stuff or they'll hire an agency to do it and you know rather than, it's just amazing the stuff that go on. I mean down here where I am in Lubbock, again it's a college town but it's a small big town. I remember buying a guy you're counting at a state sale for five bucks, no one knew what it was but I knew what it was so I scarfed it up. Hey, Ed. Go ahead. Ed, is that caller still on that was just up? Yeah. I think he is. Are you there, caller? Yeah. My ears. Can you hear me? Yeah, he can hear you. OK. OK. Okay, so what my question is, if I'm not mistaken, you use these new generation power tools every day at your work, don't you? Every minute of every day. Okay, what's up is the technology, looking at them in magazines, blah blah blah is one thing. But the technology that these new battery operated power tools are off the chart as far as the power as far as the extended run on the batteries the quickness of charge is that not correct? Oh they you are 100% correct sir. They are the... Go ahead. Yeah, what I look at, if I'm looking and I'm seeing something advertised or I see a picture of it, what I do is to try to put it generationally as to what error they were put out. I look at the amount of voltage, like the first batch of Makitas that come into the country in California had that long body. That was only a 9.6 volts. Okay, so one of the things I do is I look at the voltages because they have increased as the technology has advanced. Over. Yeah, and they're all, remember, they're all brushless now. All of these new tools are brushless. Not only probably three years ago, they still had brushes, but these are brushless. And I can run my, I can run my chop box, which is a Makita. Two days two solid days Whoa without without even charging and that's why I have it's a two battery two 18 volt battery But Makita's got an awesome Awesome line of tools, but the very best and we all agree all of us carpenters agree The very best is Milwaukee and they make Milwaukee in America Mm-hmm, Milwaukee and they have the plethora of tools everything from routers to table saws to chop boxes Yeah, yep Are they making Milwaukee in America in America or are they assembling the parts in America that well I Don't quote me. I'm there. It's supposed to be here in America Whether they're getting it from overseas. I don't know but they're awesome Yeah, you know I gotta use something What size blade caller does your Makita chop so high? Is it just a chop saw or is it a sliding? Oh, it's a sliding beveled. You name it. It's everything. I mean Hold on guys. We got Mark back Mark. Do we have you? Oh, it sounds like we do. One, two, three. No, and you sound clearer. And I was going to tell you whatever line you're on, although it looks like this is the same number, you sounded a little weird, but your audio has cleared up dramatically since you've called back in. Isn't that fascinating? And we only have 12 minutes left, so. Well, I notice this is not one of the usual numbers you call in. Is this a mobile or is this something new? Yeah, this is a mobile. We were going to test something else, but we didn't do it. So this is a mobile and it's interesting that Apparently, actually it sounds better in general too. So there was something going on. I think you probably got connected to a better tower this time is what happened Yeah, the dart was thrown in another direction On that note I heard talking about Makita cut-off saws a bunch of those I picked up in parts and Again, guys just watch for this stuff If you already have the system, the spare parts that you'll acquire mean that if anything breaks down or if you have to, you can take three, four hanger queens and put a system back together, a machine you're already familiar with. Another big advantage of doing what we're talking about doing by building these up is that there is no downtime. If a machine fails, you can put it off to the side. Pick up the other model, everything you've got in your tool bag is already set up for it, and you have a spare sitting right there ready to go. I think the big thing is, like you said, I've been getting a bunch of the industrial older Black & Decker, and I think I have one of everything that they made during about 19... I think from 1980 to 1982. And half of them I got brand new in the box. And, you know, they're the two-tone. Also, the other one was Michigan Drill, which by the way is a separate company from back through the, well, 40s, 50s, 60s. I have been running into not only a bunch of their power tools, but also a bunch of their hand tools. And these are 100% Michigan made, including, of course, my favorite, the wooden levels. which again, were actually collector's items. A lot of those are all brass. Everything's glass. Everything is well made. It's actually brass guide edges, the whole nine yards. It wasn't beat to snot. And because the guy had it in his shop, he took good care of it. And if he did use it around the house or whatever, who he was helping, he took care of the tools that he had and they lasted his lifetime. So this is why you need to take advantage of this. Remember, better quality American Virgin Steel, American Virgin, you know, higher metals, especially with the copper. The motor windings will be superior because they typically are pure copper, not steel with copper wash, which works. But remember that the older the tool, the more likely it is all pure and American raw materials. Which is another big advantage. So if you see any Nobody wants to know we're talking about battery power. Nobody is everybody now is doing the poo-pooing about Corded drills or corded power tools. That's where I really make a killing. Well Again, you take the poor man drill presses that are out there. We use a standard hand drill Set each one of those up to do a certain cut or a certain particular part of a process, guys. It only does one thing, but it does it really well. And when the drill dies, if it ever does, I have three more underneath in the drawer. that are the exact same manufacturer, that all you do is disconnect the clamp, put the other one in, you don't have to readjust or recenter because it's the exact same machine. Not only that, it's a precision machine, but it's a simple precision machine. And we'll run it until the wheels fall off that one. Meanwhile, the first one that broke down or whatever happened to it, I got that over in the shop with Bob. And Bob's job is to disassemble it, take a look at it, and see if anything can be rebuilt. Hey dad, real quick. And typically it can be. We just don't bother with that anymore. Go ahead. Real quick dad. It said to go along with what you're talking about with restoring things and saving hangar queens. That if you say I don't have the information or the knowledge on how to rebuild something like that myself. Well right now we're fortunate we've got this tool at our fingertips called the internet. I don't care if you use YouTube or if you use one of the other surfaces, but right now we're talking about cut-off saws. I just did a quick search on YouTube to restoring old cut-off saws. You will find videos that will walk you through the process on how to do this with what you have in your house. Even if you have to buy something special, they'll give you recommendations on where to go to buy chemicals or whatnot to clean up the metals. Even resurfacing, I mean some of these guys who do the restoration videos on YouTube, they will go right down to the level of whitening the plastic, you know, bringing everything back up to color. They'll show you how to do it and how to do it at home to make things look like they're brand new. Not just look brand new, but also look brand new and be functional. So there's a lot of stuff that you can find online if you search for that information. If you are interested in doing what Mark's talking about here, take the time, research it, take a look at what tools you have or if you have found a cash like this that you've been able to get your hands on and you want to know if you can restore it. I would say probably about 99% of what you find can be restored. I have watched these guys restore stuff that you'd look at and you'd say, no, there's no way that can be saved and they will show you how to save it. right down to even doing microelectronics with just a regular siding board show you how to test the circuitry without having a circuit tester just testing the circuitry with a voltage meter which I thought was really cool and it's extremely simple. It's actually for me that I found out that that's such a simple way to test circuitry it's easier than using a circuit tester. for me in some cases. So it's pretty neat the stuff you can learn if you just look. And the other thing is record it. Make a copy on disk. Make up an inventory file, a library. This is most critical right now because guys, the internet isn't going to be around if the bad guys decide to wage war on the American people. It is not going to be there in the way that it is right now. Knowledge is power. They know this. They've tried to burn all the books. That's the other thing I watch for, a tradesman's text, anything and everything that I can. I haven't been that fortunate the last couple of months. Usually the books, the library that you would normally find, the reason is that if you have a little conversation is fortunately maybe a family member wants to save it because they're in the trade too, which is good. But if you see any books, especially on gear, on how to build, actually manufacturing, calculate gears to do any kinds of unique drive assemblies, there's all kinds of pocketbooks that were done for the trades. Literally, they're pocketbooks. Now, mind you, you probably have to break out the magnifying glass because they tried to put everything into each one of these little books. But for what they are, as compact as they are, they are priceless. So you want to watch for those types of pieces of equipment and again, working knowledge out there. Make up a file. The one thing is that you have to have the tools in order to recover a lot of the other cool stuff that's out there. And a lot of the junks, and well even like I said, the odd man out grab box, has got a lot of stuff that allows you to use that rather than waste a good complete tool. in a process where you want to make a tool like that. Well, if you got wreckage, you take the wreckage. Example, I just put one on the shelf just before I started the program. It was a heavy gauge industrial cutoff saw, not for regular cutoff pipework. This is an actual fixture saw that is for doing precision block cutting. Well, the thing snapped, I think. and or he got tired it was beyond spec so what they did is a guy cut it off halfway I think originally is probably 12 inches it's now six inches long it has about four inches worth of serrated blade that cuts quite nicely anything you want to in terms of wood and then what they did is they ground off the broken point they squared it out and then gave it a chisel head so that it's a scraper So what you have is this really, really, really high quality blade made of upper end steel that you can use as a unique quick scraper or a cut hand tool to do just one little final manual cut on something. And it's ready to go. It cost me nothing. It was just in the grab box with a bunch of other junk that was being thrown out. But it was just looking at it. It's like man this in fact to be quite honest We've got a guy that does knives. He probably would take this and turn it into a knife There's about two inches worth of stock from top to bottom. It's about oh, I'd say sixteenth maybe oh maybe No more than nah, it could be up to an eighth of an eighth. You know I really pay attention that time Yeah, it could be a little under eight of an inch thick But it's the idea that again, it's a reasonable piece of stock. You would make a nice little solid shank blade and you don't waste any of the metal you got. You minimize to maximize as they say. So you can go from there. Anyway, we're at the top just about for everybody out there, guys. Improvise, adapt, and overcome. Remember, if you got an old toothbrush, it doesn't go in the trash. Where does the toothbrush go? goes out to the shop. Why? Because you go through toothbrushes just like you do when you're working on teeth. With all that gunkajunk, you gotta get off before you can figure out what you gotta fix. So toothbrushes are a kind of handy tool. One of those perishable items, again, that's really, really useful when you need it because it's gonna get all greasy and yucky. It's gonna have battery acid on it. It could have anything on it. You're gonna throw it away when you're done, but you're not gonna mess up something that cost you money. that you will reuse it until it falls apart. Anyway, God bless our republics. Get to their new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire's on the run. And we are on the mark both day and night. And the Makita saw, the Cut-Off saw. Wait a minute, it's kind of like Scandinavian chainsaw tag. Only with batteries you can chase them just as far and it's much more gruesome when you start taking parts off. Remember that, Scandinavian chainsaw tag. Not for everybody. Anyway, we're going to take off a little bit and take it over. We'll be back in one hour for the Evening Intel Report. God bless. Bye-bye.
