Summary
Mark Koernke discussed the ATF's determination that the Rare Breed Triggers FRT-15 is a machine gun, examining the agency's pattern of approving products then retroactively banning them. He covered third-world conditions in America including widespread parts shortages across automotive, ammunition, and infrastructure sectors, blamed on intentional economic sabotage by government and foreign adversaries. The show included extensive discussion of preparedness, vehicle maintenance, parts inventory building, and night vision technology options. A caller reported the Illinois State Police FOID database hack exposing gun owner information, illustrating the dangers of gun registries.

Constitution. You know, the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny, not to 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 place or kill called gun-free zones, we're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat, and speaking low to me, he said, We've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave, in this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But Tyrant's 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. You've taken Satan's number and traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors, so their children will be buried. 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 what 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 watched 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 free and home? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the afternoon. Intelligence report, I'm R. Krunke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories southwest northeast south and west. Ladies and gentlemen you were listening to us on liberty tree radio dot four m g dot com liberty tree radio on satellite and we are on a m and f m micro stations c b bay stations and ultra-rath net hallmark in golden spike technologies east and west of the mississippi along with alaska good afternoon to all of our friends out there lower forty nine including the great state of jeff so long with konosya along two states territories and the clock it is five oh four p.m. eastern standard time it is friday mhm sinko d'amode and quartermaster friday the thirteenth d'duh duh duh duh oh my god friday the thirteenth it's the thirteenth of august duh duh duh duh wait a minute hold on who who who had your point i mean friday the thirteen to have a good number for me sadly enough maybe adorable by god well no actually uh... uh... i'd really friday's don't impress me the thirteen is of course well should be maybe a concern because of the neurologist on the other side uh... about it but anyway uh... it is friday it is the uh... thirteen here come down to uh... but it is quite a the thirteen to the thirteen here of open and obvious in your face favey and socialist and soviet socialist occupation of america with the k two thousand and twenty one older calendar two thousand and twenty one battle for the republic dance of the swords and uh... couple things here and i got i got three more emails hillary's going to be arrested in man now it just if i don't get a minute any minute Wait a minute, let's back to check the date. It could be four years old, five years old. No, no, it's this year. 2021 has dated the 13th and Hillary and this is it. She doesn't say this is it. Almost, almost as bad. Any minute now, any minute. sold on that hold my breath and if i had that been dead four years ago all of my breath i i'm i'm gasping because call hillary's going to be a rare yeah right and i would change jet pilot named lousy okay anyway uh... couple of the couple things real quick with quartermaster friday keep an eye on both cash mar dot com they've had some pretty good buys on uh... you know certain items those have a clearance section that's worth checking out because you never know what they're going to have in the clearance section and both cash does a lot of uh... unique sales uh... you want to get on their email list because specially with weapons parts a lot of people have been sending me shopping list this is what i'm looking for you know if you've seen this well made a good up both cash does carry a number of different pieces of technology there that uh... you might want to take a look at during boobing parts, pieces, and assemblies for putting together an AR-15, which is something we're all interested in nonstop. Everybody's always looking for more parts, pieces, and assemblies. There are a few pieces of information over at Guns and Gadgets. We'll talk about it in a minute. But in the meantime, one of the things that Botash has had recently has been, of course, some pretty decent boot deals. So if you get a chance, you do want to check out, see what they do have in the markdown boots section. Because I know a lot of people are interested in, oh hold on here, wait a minute. Oh wow, as a matter of fact, even as I speak, one of the things about the markdowns is that initially whenever they do this, they have some of the really big sizes. So if you got to kick two cows in the rear end to make a pair of boots or shoes, you might want to keep an eye on bowtash because they do have a lot of the name brands, in fact I think they carry almost every name brand in shoes and boots. But Smith & Wesson, Men's Guardian, 3 inch Cortex, Tacticals, well actually these are only in 4 wide, but $29.98 a pair, if you're in a 4 wide, that's adult 4. Yeah I know, but for you girls and some of the guys out there that are smaller, or if you have family members that are kids which is something i've talked about forever that's how my kids grip well wearing uh... combat boots and shoes from uh... some of the biggest carriers of the country but five dollars a pair that's what i used to buy we used to pay all day for uh... combat boots back when the system was different not like that anymore in fact uh... it catches catch camp but uh... definitely keep an eye on Bowtash, you never know what you're going to see there and there's always something new being added. But some of the stuff, to be quite honest, it's like the Maelstrom's, the Sportsman's Guide came in and bought them up. Ones I kept mentioning, hey guys, go take advantage of those, go take advantage. Well they had several, you know, like a couple thousand pairs of the one size and Bowtash came and said, well, not Bowtash, forgive me, Sportsman's Guide came in and said, yeah, we can buy those. I guess, I mean somebody did, they came in in a block and got them all. So one way or another they went out to another part of the industry where they turned around and put them back on basically at market price. That happens all the time in surplus. I'm used to it, not to notice I'm excited, it's just, wow, it's okay, somebody was faster than we were. That's to be expected. uh... another thing is uh... there are a number of the different medical compresses listed in the clearance section over there right now uh... personal system of domino medical twelve by twelve bandage eight-inch in the green tactical uh... fourteen fifty five but you need to go take a look there's about eight or nine nine i think nine uh... including a couple of the different israeli dressings Oh, actually pretty much all those are 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 different dressings. And the prices are not average for the system, good price actually because they've been a little on the steep end recently. But that's because they've become so popular. And these are the double pad inbound, outbound if you're not familiar with most of the tactical dressings that are being built for through and throughs now. If you have just one inbound, then you pile up everything on top of that in terms of the pads. But if it's an in-going, outgoing, what you do is you, you know, like I said before, we've talked about this using two compresses because you use the traditional. Well, the new ones actually have an inbound, outbound absorption and stuff pad to try and bring the blood flow down and, you know, fill the volume up. that's what you're doing when you're throwing bandages into a wound area okay giving the blood something to work with so uh... those are over a boat ash dot com b o t a c h dot com boat ash dot com and uh... that's uh... w w w dot b o t a c h dot com anyway want to touch on that real quick there are some other really need items that are in the uh... markdown section you might want to take a look at as i mentioned the uh... Well, that's interesting. Well, they do also have some true spec patrol caps, but they're small. And they're in the desert tiger. But there are some people have an interest. 398, a hat, that's one of the other things that's in there that I did tag. And Bully, X1000 tactical goggles, anti-fog, got them in several different colors. About $15 a pair. And if you know what those have been going for, that's actually a very good price. so if you're if they are already adapted to that model your units using them of they do have them at all three of the basic colors and have four i could be wrong that they do have the sage green they do have the earth brown and i got the black for sure so that's at both cash dot com over the bully b o l l e molly or bully take your pick x one thousand tactical goggles anti fog and anti-scratch ballistic lenses and those are hold on let me double check the 1598 a piece which is not a bad price for those so just a heads up those are available now before going farther ever if you could let's do this up guns and gadgets and the latest one is only a few minutes let's go back a little farther because some of you guys out there should be passing this on I know a lot of people building ARs it is not a surprise to me that the bat faggots are going down their shopping list of all these companies that they already gave a pat on the head and a squeeze on the ass to. Let me help you to understand something before we go any farther. It's like the bump stock garbage. Okay, the bump stocks were sent to the bat faggots. The bat faggots, the queers, the petals at the ATF look at this stuff. You know, they got these road crew from deliverance types, better than their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, and they look at it but then they're stickering because they know that they're going to flip on it as soon as they're told to do so for political gain and for you know doggy treats either they probably give a nine-year-old little boy for the uh... pedo queers that are over there at the research division the a t f to fonville until they murder but uh... whatever it is wing banjos as the background music in their elevators you know better than their own and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and We're gonna- great guys over there as you should be aware if not check them out the Warrior Poets Society Network is a place where you can have freedom shows on steroids there's a lot of great content on there a lot of great training in addition to those television quality shows there are a lot of the freedom voices that you're very familiar with they're all on there as well check them out I'll link it down below as well as a coupon code where you can save 10% off of your monthly pay to subscription. Once again, thanks to the Warrior Poets Society Network for being a friend of the channel. Now let's jump into this rare breed trigger issue in the ATF. On the screen here is a copy of the letter that was forwarded to me yesterday. I couldn't get to this earlier. I apologize. But this was sent to rare breed trigger and it says, This is in reference to the rare breed triggers model FRT-15 manufactured and marketed by your company. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives examined this trigger and determined it to be a machine gun as defined in the National Firearms Act. The next section is the NFA definition of a machine gun. The third paragraph says, as the rare breed triggers FRT-15 is a machine gun under the NFA, it is subject to the registration transfer taxation and possession restrictions applicable to those regulated weapons which include criminal penalties relating to the illegal transfer and possession of said weapons and the law says any person that violates or fails to comply with the provisions of the NFA shall be fined ten thousand dollars per violation and is subject to imprisonment for a term of up to ten years. Additionally, machine guns are also subject to the Gun Control Act of 1968 and are subject to prohibitions regarding the possession transfer and transport of such items as set forth in that law. Now while I don't have, this is a two page document, I don't have page two, but I will say that from what I can see on face value, this looks legit, this looks like a letter from ATF and Just stay tuned to this if you're a fan of the forced reset trigger because I'm sure more news will be coming rapidly. So yeah, it looks like the ATF has determined that the rare breed trigger FRT-15 is a machine gun. So yeah, we're all on the same wavelength here. If you want to stay up to date with this issue as well as all the other issues that we face on a daily basis here in the Second Amendment community, then please consider subscribing to Guns N' Gadgets. This is where you will find that information on a daily basis, sometimes several times a day. And I thank you for your time. Also, please check out the Freedom Trail Part 2 video that released this morning. Let me know what you think of that. and uh... to each other and be safe stay vigilant carry weapon check out what reports a side network have a great day take care of money all right thank you ever now i'll tell you what we're right on the same page still rare breed triggers whose do you know jay it's the newest one that that was the first that's what i play with the quick so this is an immediate response of the top people should be operating and i don't know i'd be fine in the bastard who originally approved it put him on the chopping block to but that's just me Anyway, if we could play the next- picture here. I just want everybody to know that Rear Breed has already fought back, which is good news. I got the sent to me this morning. I'll put the link down below and I also talked to John Crump about it. He's got some stuff on his website as well regarding this. So the avenues are there if you want to read it, but the lawsuit is at both places. But until then, be safe, stay vigilant, carry your weapon. I'll see you on the next one. Take care, everybody. thank you so again understand something anytime you hear this travel i don't care what it's been so far either with that dumbass trump or dumbass petals never meet puppet in both cases with both both both of the thirds involved their bat faggot organization of course first of all the place you have to go when you make something that you're going to market when you take it to them they then have to evaluate it give you a year and a this is why you keep what you can watch all hundred videos by different manufacturers on youtube about how about their developments and they'll go yeah well you know we're still not through with what is it all eighty f approval So what do the bat faggots have to do? Well, they gotta go look at it and based on all of the propaganda and you know, whatever other, you know, guidelines that are well established by quote-unquote law, we read that our War Powers Act arbitrary activity and the NFA BS, which needs to be thrown out the window along with the bat faggots, they give them a pat on the head and a squeeze on the rumpus and tell them your stuff is great. Now remember with the bump stock, They took it back two more times. Do you remember that? And they had to look at it and turn it upside down, turn it sideways, and look at them upside down again, and they still couldn't get anything going. Until Trump, until Trump, until Trump, you know, Donald Trump, just do it. Don't worry about those. We just overturn everything. Arbitrarily and capriciously. Donald Trump did that. Okay? Donald Trump did that. you know dum-dum-dum. Donald Trump did that. And guess what? As I said, remember this is all Admiralty Court BS with Arbitrary and Caprice's action non-stop. These guys came out with this stuff. Actually the Batfaggots looked at it, everybody, no, no, it conforms, it's not, and now all of a sudden now they're going right down the shopping list. the pistol stock not just about stock you know the pistol stock for the other thing and i are but i are good that years ago who they saw that at all now that's just a setup of the bat faggot and a lot of people didn't like to hear that when i was looking at the individual you know everybody put together in a play or to get registered a pistol but is your own way going to not not that like no there's no way going not not i know where this is going about faggot are going to put on it and then they're going to you know make everybody anxious and you know everybody's going to be you know piss in their pants and you know rolling sideways and getting outraged but not doing anything uh... and so here we are with you know we've already got past that we've got the the uh... the uh... pistol support brave slash short stock you know nonsense uh... already in motion and so now they're going for the deal the different system triggers that are out there in the other parts that once again are the a firearm by themselves no and their flippin on this the uh... by the way most all these companies spend a lot of money because you usually have to pay aid lawyer in the process because they have to make sure that they got all the rise across all their keys you basically get into a corporate contract with the back faggots slash read that the admiralty court scum well again if you have to deal with the devil look at what's happening right now step-by-step all these people who conform and followed all those rules and what do you get for it from the liars thieves and you know incompetence in government well what you're seeing right now excrement they're nothing but excrement and they are constantly liars it is not a maybe kind of sort of it is consistent it is something we warned everybody about we see this cyclically there's two ways to look at it okay if you are going to know you know because they're doing this one after another making a whole bunch of people uh... combatant either a you get a pop your dead-ass you do something or just roll over and let him kick in a crotch would take a pic but pick a direction i'd prefer this wishy-washy garbage will you know what with with with administrative believe will fight them sure and wasting a lot of resources in the process and type Progressively, they will just flip on it again and flip on it again and flip on it again. And we have... Excuse me. Are these like the binary triggers where you get a fire on the pole and then one on the back step? Well, the interesting thing about this particular family is that some of them are simply, you know, that's why they had designated bionumeral. Okay, hold on here. I got stinking noise in the background for that. uh... the twenty-first century with the dribble from all these alien software packages that they have with all of these stupid channels anyway um... this company does a number of different uh... drop-ins and of course the one that they're most famous for i guess right now i'm really haven't had an interest in them uh... in theory is supposed to be a uh... push-field push-field push people you and as far as i know Again, these all went in, they were given to the Bat Faggots, they already saw them, looked at them, nothing they could say about them, because again, they conformed to the letter of the law, and they've turned around and now they're again, flipping on it, forgive me here, I'm trying to get another piece up while we're talking. Go ahead, please jump in there. Yeah, I understand the concept is supposed to be one round per pull of the trigger. But trigger recovery is not a pull. Now, they may be trying to split a hair and say the recovery is actually part of the pull, but I don't believe that's the case. If you look at the way an automatic weapon fires, you've got to hold that trigger back. So one pull is one pull to the rear, and any recovery that might fire off another round is not pulling. And you're not actually forcing it to do anything. It's actually doing it under its own power on the recovery. That's the way I understand those words. Exactly. One of the things about this is that again, the mechanics of it are such that it still physically conforms to the manipulated sear where you have to operate the sear, release it each time. You can't just pull the trigger and the sear just automatically floats. That's not what this does. Okay, it's basically like a... And you know what? I haven't looked at it closely internally. I haven't taken one of the guts of these apart. but the way that they're describing the operation it sounds like a triple cam, triple claw instead of a double claw seer and what happens is you literally, I guess in a way you almost, you know what it's almost like, guys you don't see as many of them but you have an indexing internal double barrel shotgun trigger hammerless. Okay, you ever thought about that? Not a hammer, but a hammerless. You know, where you have the internal indexing control, they don't seem very many of them anymore like you used to, but it would be, we've pulled the trigger and you fire the first, and what it does is the cam floats, and then allows you to pull the trigger on the second barrel. Most have double triggers, but even there, when you have an internal, our hammer system the way it's set up or an internal internal release system without the hammers and the strikers that you normally see on the older double barrels understand if you were to take and look at the internals about how some of these triggers work and there were many different patents we way back in the day before they settled where they did uh... a lot of these guns floated around into the seventies and eighties quite easily so anybody looking at a go away to manage can't we apply that to a some automatic rifle and like was sure you could now let's take it to the bat faggots does this uh... you know does this conform to your regulation with regard to manipulation of a single here and having to perform an action in order for it to be legitimate mob by moving the fear releasing the fear each time in other words you're not taking and pulling the fear back and and then it floats and then you have well bank fires lamp fire but now what this is doing but what it does is it it creates a situation where you can follow up with a very rapid second shot without any additional manipulation of the uh... system so i don't know other than the fact that again like I said arbitrary and capricious they already looked at it if it is a an internal like smaller hammerhead type you know third seer you know forward backward forward backward then it makes no sense that they should be able to argue it except there they're pissed because they've been told find ways to attack AR-15 owners. Because that's all this is. This is the cyclic. It started in 1977. I've told you this a million times. There's nothing here we're seeing new. They went after the trigger groups, but not so much. They went after the bolt carriers big time, and I'm waiting for that. That's coming. Let me get you ready for this. They're going to turn on the bolt carriers. if they're doing all of this it is not here it is only when and what it was marked mean by that what guys how many of these uh... uh... ads that you've seen worth actual book second nature a lot of them don't even mention now but m sixteen type uh... bulk carrier group guys you know in nineteen seventy seven the m sixteen bulk carrier group was you know considered you know we're both know my god how dare you have that even though there was no restriction on it But by having that, it was implied that you were going to make a class 3 weapon. You know, it's kind of like the M2 bolts on the M1 carbine. Well, no, they didn't make it full auto. All it did was give you, if you had them, and like we've always said, it's nice that we have these because if we ever capture a rack of M16 A2s or M4s, guess what? Your bolt carriers will drop right in and all the select options will work. because that's what it, you know, the M16 type bolt carrier or M4 type bolt carrier and bolt group, bolt carrier group, the way it's set up, that in 1977, they were doing everything they could to attack gun owners over. And I'm telling you right now that they're going to do it again. And I'm not giving them any ideas. They just, they just pull this crap out and fuse me. They pull this stuff out of their arse. They've already had you jump on one leg, hop on, you have to hop on your left leg. Okay. You have to pat your tummy. You have to blink your left eye and right eye. Okay. Oh, he's doing it. And you have to put your hand on your head and spin it backwards in a pancake-type formation while keeping your hand flat. Ah, hell, he did that too. Okay, I guess we gotta give it to ya. Oh yeah, but I only went, but all I did was build this thing to your specifications, and that's why I was able to do all these things. Oh well, well, we don't like it anyway. Oh wait a minute, first I'll let you do it and then they'll let you set up a plant, you know, run the plant, then they'll let you set up production, then they'll let you sell a bunch of them, and then they flip flop on it. Oh wow, does this sound familiar? Take your, I don't care what the part is. That's what this garbage is purely for making business for the dirty whores that need to be shot out of our country. That's what it comes down to. because a little wooded piece of metal here, a little piece of plastic there, this drivel is old and it gets to the point where it's likely so they're threatening to kill people over A, stuff that first of all they said was okay, but then they're gonna turn around and threaten to murder you in your home. because that's the only option that the only thing that works is that they're going to work tell you're going to murder you in your home and you shall be terrified for owning the property that you legitimately bought based upon all that's right all of their their hop on one leg rub your tummy patch your head blink your eyes you know bs operation bar's i'm concerned that i've seen this for big cycle this is the biggest one so far this one this one top out the nineties with all the trouble they were pulling that i would say it's already as bad as what they were doing with the copy of what they look at all the shopping list all internal part of for your trigger group all our getting there right now all bulk carrier group this is only our fifteen i'm not even go to any other god over all kinds of things they were doing with car i mentioned the car being guys the bat faggots they were they they use the car being on us the same way they use the air fifteen because there were so many m two parts will it didn't make any difference because the m two parts could be put on a semi auto uh... m one and actually beef the gun up without making it a machine gun one of the most common things you would do if you had an m1 carbine, I mean I did hundreds if not thousands of them, because we searched for the parts is for instance you had a really nice us m1 carbine. Well yeah but guess what you could buy a plainfield carbine for 65 to 75 dollars. and the plane fields were made later than your say, inland carbine and they used a lot of parts that were for the M2 and M3 to build the plane field and the early universal carbines. Now universal made a major change and went to mostly stamping parts because they wanted to build a proprietary gun and they did. But when universal first came out, they were the equivalent to plane field on the other side of the country. i actually worked out for a part but they were up and down from each other north and south and playing field was a hundred percent u.s. military part and receiver barrel were were military pattern universal started out as such and then they had a major change in production went to the stamping down the most you're familiar with a lot of people didn't like as there were issues when they try to develop it's kinda like a lot of other nine millimeter guns are rebuilt during the same period or anyway uh... When they built all of these guns from Universal, they bought tons of stuff that was surplus from the government in the later inventories. It's reflected by the period of time when the guns were built. For this reason, M2 parts were all over the gun. The plane fields, everybody poo-poo's the plane field, we just laugh. And then we buy the plane fields for bargain price, and then we turn around, strip off all of the M2 parts. and hang on to them and for instance the first thing a lot of guys to do is take the M2 or M3 bolts and put them on the M1 carbines. Now you wouldn't get rid of your original inland or whatever you had on the gun because it matched by serial number, we knew that. But the idea behind this is that you're beefing up the weapon for more significant firepower with less issues because of heat, etc. All the other issues that every gun has. uh... when the air came into play they start the same crap with it especially like it that when jenna kahla came out in nineteen seventy seven and the other thing flash hiders a try to screw with everybody over every stinking flash hider that was made it but but they really really got after everybody when they made a copy of the xm one seven seven uh... sionic uh... reducer was not a suppressor Well, a lot of companies made just a straightforward, big, heavy-ass piece of steel that really was nothing more than a really long, long, long, long, with mostly no cut at all because that's how the Siletics unit looked. And what they did is they made it so that if you had a 16-inch barrel, how many of you remember this? What you did to make it look more like that, Car 15 that everybody coveted back during the war but hardly ever carried. What you did is when you screwed it on, most of the flash hider was actually just a sleeve that went back over the length of the barrel so it created the illusion that the barrel was shorter even though it still was longer than the Kar-15 barrel that was the submachine gun version of the AR-15. And that's what it was rated at, by the way for those of you who don't know this. if you go look at the original manuals and by the way ignore the bullshit by people who write crap later don't know what they're talking about go right to the military manuals including the maintenance manuals including the stuff that was done for prevented maintenance remember the old p.m. mags in the back you'll find it were all by the way for you who had carrying the xm one seven seven so machine gun they said it not mark submachine gun submachine gun submachine gun that's what they considered not an assault rifle is considered a sub machine gun and then of course everybody keeps rewriting articles and parroting somebody else's idiot crap and by the time you're done you guys don't know what you're talking about really well the do d who kind of ran p.m. magazine because they wanted guys to you know do things right and all the other publications that you can find that are actually from the day will give you all the information you need Whatever dribble has been rewritten, you know, again, doesn't have to be anything. It's not the Matrix. It's just people repeat or people, and then they repeat, and then they continue to repeat, and all of a sudden, it's you guys didn't know. Well, we were the ones who were there. Were you there? Well, I heard from that expert. Yeah, okay, whatever. And how old is he? So anyway, the XM177 Flashliner, that was there. That was the tag excuse, because they could see it. And then of course, well, did you have, you might have an M16, in fact, especially if you had a chrome bolt, because that was the big thing. Remember, there were a bunch of chrome bolts, they were bargain basement. I gotta have a chrome bolt, because the AK has a chrome bolt. Well, the reason they didn't use the chrome bolt, the flashy, shiny chrome bolt in Vietnam, is because they decided very quickly that it drew attention. They didn't do a satin finish, they went with a high polished chrome. Once the dust cover fell with a sunny country like Vietnam, tropical rainforest and all, and lots of sunshine, those flash hiders, the flash hiders, forgive me, that boat carrier, with the boat carrier, just that little space open, was like a shoot me flag, because it would reflect light, and remember the bolts moving back and forth, the boat carrier is, so it's flashing back and forth in this little space. Well, it reflected light quite well. So very quickly it was not because it wasn't just because they had chrome problems with the chrome sticking. That really wasn't so much an issue. It was the idea that it was a flashy bit of light night and day that if you had pop flares going off and you're pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, you had a flash hider up front to reduce signature, but you got a big shiny, bright bolt carrier that is reflecting light, you know, kind of like a Burma Shave commercial. OK. Oh, you don't know that one? There's the Burma Shave signs. You know, empty beer cans along the road are ugly, many say, but when at night, reflecting light, they safely guide the way. Burma Shave. Yeah, you know the joke about the cans reflecting light was like a reflector line along the side of the road from the beer cans out of the factory. Same is true with that little bit of metal shining back and forth So that's why the chrome barrel chrome bolts bolt carriers were out there for nothing We used to buy them for five dollars apiece all day in the wrapper unissued Today, of course, it's clobbing. I wish to god. I had a bucket of those things by God we could buy God knows what with them Okay, just like a lot of the other m16 stuff though was you know dime a dozen yellow giveaway it's always the case it's the same old car beans i was talking about guys we built we built car beans to the point where i've lost track of how many we built from scratch using fed or receivers okay but everything else is military because the military car being parts were just three That's the only way to describe it is like you couldn't afford not to build a carbine. Why never buy a good carbine? Hey Mark. Because they were cheap. It's like your Air 15's a few years ago. Why would you be building them? Well Uncle Mark was telling you they were like $220, $218 for a complete kit a few years ago. What's that same kit cost you right now? Go ahead, caller, jump in there. My understanding is that they also go after, and I'm not sure if I can mention this because I had to run in and order the pizza. Parts from a certain number of parts that were originally on a fully automatic weapon, if they were applied to a semi-automatic weapon, renders the semi-automatic weapon a machine gun. that also something they tried to do with the area that they did that with the air and with the that's what i think we have to carby nam one carby with the m2 parts on it they did the same thing there where they were trying to do a pop point that the most likely wait a minute though they have a selective here in fact what happened is the reason they backed off on this is because a bunch of people decide we know what let's just take this and run this into court Okay, does it have the selective sear on it? Well, no. Well, it can be easily. Okay, really, how easily? Well, now, you've got to remember this. This is why, what's going on with these guys right now. The bat faggots flat out why. They will do crap in a shop that you wouldn't do, or, you know, in other words, cobble, weld, and glue, so they can say, well, this could easily be converted into, or made into fill in the blank. they get any terms readily converted right what it comes down to if you got a bunch of roker from deliverance mucksters that are in west virginia that that site that they're talking about and these terms their job is to lie what the purpose that what what what the federal agent have a mouth so they can move their lips and lie and that's what they do they have got this down to where you were in again they count on the idea that between the propaganda in hollywood and these idiots that watching court televisions that are you know working and i'm going to be professionals have you ever seen the one that they got doing this they are skank across the board like i said but i don't know where they are now down down down road crew from deliverance kids you ever seen any of those wonders the best thing to put up in front of the camera look like a bunch of stinking turds and there's a reason they're bottom feeders that's what the feds got I mean for the ones that are their experts on this stuff and also cobbled the guns seriously they got some real buford there as far as you know real low life that they'd sell out their mom they probably did I mean but they'd fabricate life or whatever you know whatever the feds says they want they will make happen That's the way to describe it and again lying through their teeth. But I'm sorry I'm wondering if that might be one of the reasons I'm having such a hard time finding a wide hand guard for the PTR 91 Because of the G3 wide hand guards are considered part of the Well, no, it's just that they're popular. No, I remember they used to be out there everywhere. I mean on a Sturm I could take you to where I went to the warehouse. They had a whole wall of those And when I say a wall, let me give you an idea of, it's a factory, they took over a second factory for a warehouse. And the magazine section was six pallet tiers high, solid. Each pallet bin stood to my armpits, and they were solid blocks of magazines. Well, the next aisle over from one end of that plant to the other were HK stock sets. and originally when they came in, you got the stock, you got a bunch of little trinket metal parts, the pistol grip and the buttstock all in the standard thick stock for $11.95, $11.95. And they went, they were, each one of those pallet bins was solid filled to my armpit with those stock sets. And they were the heavy, you know, the bulky stock set. And there's, it's just that they're popular. Nobody's coming off them because once they got them, they're standing on the gun. and everybody started, before there wasn't anything to put them on. Remember decades ago, a couple of, when these first came in. Yeah, that means something about it. Yeah, it was like, what are you going to put them on? I mean, it'd be great. And I said, just invest in them, keep buying them, buy them, buy them and put them on the shelf. It's like wine. And lo and behold, well, now they sell the scavenged part holes. I don't think anybody's noticed this. We're down to the point where they're selling the scavenged, deep parted, uh... trigger groups if you want to see that go to apex gun parts dot com uh... you they were selling you that whole assembly with all the parts on board and it was a very much a bargain basement price sent them they've scavenged all those parts off of those both those uh... trigger groups and they'll tell you just a whole bit trigger group with nothing attached uh... which kind of interesting you know i make up something up you want something of the foundational device you want to experiment things to give you something to work with that you can cobble on cuz it all doesn't cost much you know it's pennies like a few dollars dollars that pennies but a few dollars but uh... no it's it is it is an issue and that you know i guarantee what what they're doing the if they could get the the baby killer in as head of the a t f that would give them the symbolism that they need to try and terrorize all of you listening out there because that's what this is about why did they pick him why did they pick Chipmunk because he's a baby killer and when we say that we're not joking about that he is a church burning baby murderer That's the kind of person they are. They're gropers, pedos, murderers. I'm sure they've raped children until they were dead. Okay? This character who is a caricature, when you look at the way he acts, there's something inside him wicked. That's what they want. They want that dead demon, that creature, I don't care what you want to call it, that thing. They want that thing in place for what they have planned. And then they're going to go right through and do what they've done over and over again. And like I said, this just needs to be done. Another reason we're going to be going to war. We don't let it ride this time. We're finished with it. Everybody I've talked to is like, nah, I'm not jumping through any of these hoops. And everybody pretty well is on the same page. So that's another direction where, guys, you better have all your I's dotted and all your T's crossed. Get your technology squared away. because it's not if, it's just when you're gonna be fighting. And they've already said you're gonna go on without shipment anyway. Go ahead, who do we have? You're breaking up, buddy. Whoa, we're breaking up. You're breaking up. Not every other word on the phone. All right, and we're not on a... One, two, three, can you guys hear me loud and clear? You sound like you're breaking up too Ed. Okay, well Mark and everybody's coming across clear on my end. I'm not hearing any break up. So there's something walking around. Yeah, but I'm hearing it in my ear. You're sounding like every like there's something like they're running a wire across the wire to create garbage. Everybody on the call-in line that just spoke up, they're on the regular call-in line. I'm hooked up through the conference line. through voice over IP and I'm telling you you guys sound solid to me. Something going on with the direct connect they've been messing with the comm system across the board guys so Well, if you're having a problem hearing I would recommend going to one of the live streams if you can If not, just hang in and hopefully it'll clear out or call back in. Well, let's do this I'm gonna I'm gonna try this for a second because we're on hard line across the board guys You're clear dad. You're coming in loud and clear. You're not breaking up, but you're breaking up to me right now Yeah, you're both breaking up to me and I'm on the phone, but okay I've got four bars. And now you just cleared up. Talk to me. And you did too. Yep. And all of a sudden it's a miracle. We're all kind of magical. Yeah, wow. So anyway, again, what does that tell you? We're drilling the right tooth, doesn't it? Because again, what they have planned. there that i have seen all of this and again there's nothing that's been to everybody that's got all this this is why why would you apologize that's why these people are pissed that's why they're ready with a lawsuit right away you want to lie it's like wait a minute we did everything you told us to do and every and what they're expecting that everybody is going to be open to their parents and just pop over it is like not a lot how do we take a bite out of your ass instead Now, here's the problem. They can court shop and they will, and they're going to go to some dirty whore who's just going to, no matter what you say, they won't let any of your evidence into court. I have seen all the variations on what the skank ring knockers and yamical wearers will do in the courts. You just, oh, we've got the right, we've got, we know, and the court and the juries, well, the juries are a bunch of dumbasses who, you know, again, a big chunk of them are A, government employees or married to, okay? This is one of the things, especially at the Fed end, where does your jury pool come from? and it's been proven, oh, oh, oh, after the fact, you find out that this and this and this, oh, so you use it as an appeal item. But meanwhile, they, okay, and then you win the appeal. So meanwhile, they've had you in jail for how long and taken life away from you. Until we change this, and this is what's gonna happen with American War for Independence, any government agent who charges you, and then it's demonstrated, was involved in malfeasance, will serve seven times the cost of your time lost in life. Now I know what some of you are thinking and I know exactly how it really should go because then you don't have to worry about them anymore. Because that's what really should, something else should happen. But let's just put it this way, okay, instead, whatever they do to you, it comes back on every one of the agents, including the judge, the attorneys, all of them, seven times the cost. And you throw the key away. There's no appeal for it. There's no lesser for it. If it's bat faggots, feds, government attorneys, judges, they go to jail just like everybody else. There is no immunity. In God's economy, if you're a false witness and you're found to be a false witness, you are to serve whatever the punishment is that the person you were trying to lie about would have served. Yeah, but most of it is a false... So they're going to put you in for a 20-year sentence, then they get a 20-year sentence. Right, but the one of them... Not just seven times the six months that you were in there, the whole 20 years. right but no no no no no no yeah but the seven i mean seven times the charge whatever the charges other words the throwing the key away uh... that that's that's my attitude on it anyway until we make it to the point because until you burn their hands so bad they have no fingers your enemy will continue as they are right now and that's where we are we're going to have they're going to be gone when we're done with it anyway they won't be good as any of this does when we're done the party and with a part locator go ahead jump in there yeah who was asking about the PTR 91 wide and guard maybe yeah go ahead okay yeah you ready to copy a location no but if I get over to here and grab a pencil or bite your finger right right and blood in the wall okay hold on a second I can do it too Anyway, it will be also on the archive here. So what we'll do is... Okay. Everybody... Let me make sure I got a pen here to work. Go ahead, jump in there. Okay, it's a first name. It's followed by three letters. It's Robert Romeo Dango Gull. They don't have them. They're out. Go ahead. They're out. They've been out. I just saw them up on the board. Clean up this morning. Okay, hold on, hold on. Robert RTG. Okay, as long as you got it, that's okay. Try it for you. Well, we'll keep working, that's the whole point. Everybody out there listening? We're looking for a search and checking in. They've got the best thing, it's just they're out of stock and I put the, send me an email when you get them back in stock. Yeah, okay, I'm sorry, I didn't see that. I keep going to check and they're still out. Okay, I got something like two weeks ago. That was the first time you mentioned that, that's where I went and I was like, oh great, they've got it. Oh, no, they don't have it. It looks good until I want to order it. I know how that is. It happens with several of the sites. It's like, alright, look at that. Oh, that's a great price. Oh, wait, I'm going to order it and out of stock. Oh, you bastard. Yeah. And thanks, I got to run, but thanks to the three color site though. I appreciate the three color site. Those are great. Oh, very good. And again, use them. Let us know how you like how they work for you. That's the other one. Well, I already gave it to four people and getting great results back, so. Excellent. Well, that's the idea. God bless. Bye. And again, that's one of those things where maybe in the long haul we'll be building, and we didn't think to do this before, like with the HKs. There's a couple reasons. The ARs and the AKs are very common. The HK simply wasn't out there in any numbers in the surplus parts. uh... made up for whatever we needed well we've got to the other end of that were the p t r sir plentiful enough that we now have an h k model that's eaten up most of the part one think about that i mean that's actually a pretty good thing i've you gotta understand how many h k parts came into the country and the fact that we have so many p t r is now that literally they consumed those parts that's a good thing that's not a bad thing Well, I'm at the point now where it's worth my time, since I can't spend the money to buy one. I'm going to get me a block of birch and I'm going to use the skinny hand guard mount points as the basis for it. I'm just going to carve my own. In fact, it would be a good project where if it's made right, it could also be marketable. Keep that in mind, because there's people that are interested in that. One of the reasons, too, is for any of the heavier marksman's guns, a system like that, there's a couple different ones out there already, but a system like that that just takes advantage of the existing components would be a very marketable thing, especially if it improves, you know, it fills the hand more efficiently, gives you different options for also fixtures because you've got enough meat, you can actually add a supplemental bipod, et cetera. There are a number of different tricks. There's like all things, kind of things that we've done once you have them in hand. So, just a heads up on that one. Another thing here, of course, is Florida the 13th. We're not really worried about that. But it is... We're headed towards the middle of the... Oh, you just had to do this. Yeah, Biden goes wrong way on return to the White House after spending time in Wilmington, Delaware. Okay, I didn't see that, but yeah, I have to have a chuckle before I get to the top of the hour. Thank you, I appreciate that to Randy for sending that before we get to the top. I'll have a look at the break. We got Ed, go ahead. I'm not breaking up still, am I? No, you're sounding good. Okay. I was going to bring this up on the town hall, but you mentioned the gas at the beginning of the hour and have you heard what they're doing right now to the OPEC nations? The US government is begging the OPEC nations for more gas. Why? Because we shut down our pipeline and we've told Texas that they've had to cap some of the new oil, in fact just driving down 84. You can see where they were drilling new oil derricks and they're capping them already. And again, so what we have are the pigs working for the communist Chinese and for foreigners for screwing us. And by the way, go look at the gas price at the pumps. And by the way, here's another thing. The oil that Ed's talking about, guys, that's one of the biggest strikes in American history. And here's the thing I mentioned a year ago. We found out by accident. Roswell, New Mexico has an even bigger strike underneath it and they knew about this forever. They did. I do not doubt they knew exactly where this oil was in half for a hundred years. But guess what, they found they've got this oil field that it shadows, it overshadows everything that we've seen in the country. And even the strike up there in going on the Dakotas, which made a lot of money for everybody in terms of regular workers, phenomenal paychecks, okay? Especially if you want to go out and work and stay on the job. part of the underlining or destroying the american economy intentionally while they bring the dirty horse and from over the border and work with the dirty horse that are you know in d c to destroy left of the american jobs the best better paying american jobs which also in the process benefited all of you with cost of living reduction well we can't have that not with the commies not with the queer petals slash obama it's the queer obama it's because this ain't the same petals never bite uh... was doing this he that that will carry but walk the sidewalk to where it is that he has to pop his artist when he's going to come back into d c uh... it's well we know what it is and again work the top just about for everybody out there we can't lament about what because everybody let the fake collection ride It's everybody's fault. It's not just the Demikins. The criminal Demikins did what the criminal Demikins were going to do four and a half years ago. They just hit the switch sooner rather than later. Well, now here we are, and look what's happening to the country. The only I can say is just get ready for the war that is inevitable because we actually need it. It's one of those things where, no, let's hope it doesn't happen. No, we need it to happen. But we also know who we're going to be going after when the time comes, and our game isn't their game. that's just how it works everybody already understands and that was exactly where the local list is there everybody knows what needs to be done in each respective state everybody's pretty long tenter hooks right now and just wait for the football but whenever they're stupid enough to do it everybody smart enough to go after the right problem and all a that problem will be who settled rio also raw again i want to thank you we did have a very significant uh... for of bruce we want to thank you for your donation greatly appreciated and uh... for other friends that we also have with the old well i have to wait cuz i make sure it's out on the air uh... we have a couple other things that are in the mail and edward's gonna have uh... the latest uh... poker face album in hand shortly uh... his copy is in motion So for everybody, new music and of course a lot of effort to get some of the other projects finished and out of the way here in Michigan for what's to prepare for what's going on. We have a night vision primer class going on by the way, forgive me, hold on, over at Camp Emmerich starting tonight. And for you guys that are out there, I know that the micro-FM's and AM's are running. and i would remind you that we have a standard policy to number ten can support to get to the door we don't charge anybody for being there but you have to be manual woman intelligent enough to remember that you have to have those two camps it's a like a past coin not a hard thing to do that a store down the road hell if you admire is not too far all from the one You can go and you buy two number 10 cans. Yes, it's a religiosity thing for us, but it's because you're also supposed to be adult, you'll remember. It's like having a pass coin, only this case really big. How can you forget to number 10 cans? Well, you really can't. You know when you get to the door, when you get to the gate... You can get some pretty good number 10 cans for two of them for 20 bucks. Cheap! Yeah, or less! You could get chili beans. Well, yeah, you've got four or five bucks for some of the plain vegetables. Right, that's all I need. You could get chili beans or something like eight bucks? You're gonna go. We don't care what it is as long as it's in number 10 cans. And you know what? You're gonna be eating it later, so you guys figure it out. because one way or another that's how the A of the F the old of the a rations that are used for the metal during the weekend and but we still have more than we need what we've got to take in more food yeah because we're creating a a tactical reserve that we also moved to other sites like right now camp emmer could feed uh... but couple of battalions right now and comfortably keep them maintain for a period of time And some of you guys helped to build the structures that are holding the food that's in climate control. So when we have rotation of material, the whole nine yards. But the idea behind it is it has cost no one any significant amount of money. Period. Nobody has had to shell out a big chunk of anything to make that happen. it's all been done with hand-me-down tools all building materials donated because we have allies course now building materials become stupid like would but you know what now we're going to steal i didn't mention that you know what we have a whole bunch of people have got to steal to buy for contracting work they do and they get overages and stuff so guess what we're going to steal on half the buildings now being built instead of the two by four or two by six construction we were doing not on everything because we use steel for a lot of stuff and we do bunkering and underground stuff too but the fact is that each one of the sites it's very straightforward very simple system and you guys all make it happen and if you're listening right now you're at Emory Gammersen, New Camp Stasa, Camp Wailin North any of the training sites everybody knows how this works and by the way your little lasagna is partially made from all the goodies you guys bring so yeah if you bring a little better quality stuff like a can of mushrooms probably be a good idea once in a while because they will be used and you will eat well you'll all you'll eat like pigs especially when they have the lasagna the girls make the lasagna anyway we're at the top got to hear the music we are going to go to break for everybody out there it is Friday it is Friday the 13th Constitution you know the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny Not to 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 where more are killed called Gun Free Zones, we're gonna beat you. We're gonna vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. I had a dream the other night that, well I didn't understand, a figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave, in this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money'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've taken snumber and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. 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 what you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. Preserve our great Republic in each God-given right. And pray to God to keep the torture of freedom burning bright. And good! afternoon ladies and gentlemen this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report of our kirky 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 south and gentlemen you were listening to us on liberty tree radio dot four m g dot com liberty tree radio on satellite and we're on a m and f m micro stations aim and f m conventional stations cb bay stations and ultra net hallmark in golden spike technologies east and west of the mississippi along with alaska and it is friday cinco d'amico day it is the thirteenth of august friday the third of the door It is 6.11 p.m. Eastern Standard Time and it is the 13th year of open Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2021 old earth calendar. 2021 battle for the Republic, the dance of the sword. Let the battle begin. Anyway, a couple of things. First of all, like something just jumped out of the old say thank you to andy and it's like uh... the uh... to koi uh... twenty-five frogfoot verses the eight ten warthog dogfight you know what would happen uh... something that somebody point out printed up there and it's a neat little video on say thank you appreciate little got a lot of night and i was looking at it today again and i don't think everybody understand that just an american plane versus an american plane you do know that guys right I've mentioned this a few times over the years. I want you to go back and do something. I have a picture here that's actually from, what, 1975. And do you remember when the Warthog first came out as an idea? There was another plane that was proposed, and it was the competition for the Warthog. Have you ever seen it? Wasn't that the Cessna? Well, no, no, the Cessna, that was number three. Now, thank you. That was the other plane. We could have had, what is it, 14, no, 11.5 of the Cessnas for the price of one Warthog with the same firepower. Now, the Cessna was prop driven. And we have no place for a prop driven plane in the US military, except that, as you all know, if you haven't seen the latest information they're now looking at buying a south american version of basically what assessment came up with what thirty years ago actually doing but americans yet anything but american however i'm bringing this up for a reason the s u twenty-five is an american design not kind of not sort of when the eight ten was being proposed at the at tank killer tank buster aircraft are being proposed Two planes came out, the A-10 and the other one which was actually put into production, the A-11. Okay? Now go find pictures of the two aircraft competition jet designs that were proposed. One looks like the A-10 because it is the A-10. The other is the A-11 because it is the A-11. which you now know as the SU-25 Frogfoot. Yeah, and by the way, there are some beautiful, I have what I have is one of the aerial art pieces that was done when they were several different aircraft being proposed at the same time, and there's a flying image of the A-10 the competition aircraft, the Cessna is not in that by the way, Cessna built that whole design and was putting it into the competition as an independent but viable solution for economical tank busting or for that matter, you know, infantry ground support. You could have 13 of them and more pilots in the air with less trouble. And a smaller thermal signature, when they came up with the Cessna design, I think it had 13, almost either 11 or 13 Kevlar, Kevlar graphite panels that made up the body. If it got hit, you could pull a panel off, put the other panel on, and back in the air. And of course, everything was integrated, coparts, so that there was, you know, one part could replace another. If you, you'd have, you wouldn't need as many parts in the inventory to keep the plane flying. Now the A-10 has the same feature. The engines are omni-optional. In other words, they can flop the engine from one side to the left. There's not a, you know, a left side, right side specific configuration. That's why the engine pods are set up the way that they are on the A-10. but the A-11 was no different. However, now we call that the SU-25. And what's the difference? The Russians built it. After we designed it and did all the work, amazingly enough, the Russians got a complete copy of the information available somehow and built a Sukhoi-25, which is our other aircraft. Wow. And they did that during the height of the Cold War. Wow. And they had no problem Cranking them out because they didn't have to do any research and development to make it work Wow As Sulu would say, you know, George Tech I yeah just a heads up on that one if you don't know and again The artwork is out there I'm sure they've you know done some scouring to get rid of some of it only if you do a search But you can find images out there. You can find the competition imagery where the two aircraft are in the air and You can point to somebody say you see that sukov attacking that a-10 Wow, where did that come from? Oh, I'm sorry, that's not the SU, that's not the SU-25. That's our plane. And what it looks like, and the other guy will go, it looks like a Sukhoi. Yeah, it does, doesn't it? Your tech dollars at one point. What did they call the Cessna? Oh, I don't recall what the Cessna, was that a grasshopper? They had a name for it. They came up with a name for it, Cessna did. but uh... in again that we never bought any now they got it be big came up with a plane they've worked out the design set the committed a great deal of capital to the project and it hurt that's been a long run because they also didn't get uh... i don't think they can hold a quantity a certain number to help america is is typically a place you can find them they can find a customer there Unfortunately, what they did is they kind of took the Cessna that they got and used them as a premise for making their own aircraft. In other words, thank you America, you give us your plane and we look at it and we can build that in South America, which they could. And in fact, that's again why another variation on what really play a cross breed between the Cessna and the Bronco with a kind of a stubby wing configuration is the latest coin or ground attack aircraft coming out of south america that the u.s. government looking at actually buying and again anybody but american especially for a tax dollars spent and i know all god awful way as we pointed out and so anyway uh... what the couple of things here hold on there was one other thing i wanted to touch on Oh, and it's not weapons Wednesday, but I do need to mention it. Somebody sent me a picture and it's a really weird looking magazine fed rifle and they said they picked this up at a yard sale, they bought it for $180. Well, you stole that gun. What that is is a Moss and you probably know it by now anyway. but you gotta pay attention a bunch of these one out there in this case it's in three oh eight if you pay attention look at the numbers on the side receiver of the picture right now it's a moss forty nine fifty six now uh... some people of a effective person will you never talk about you know these guns what is this well i actually have the moss forty nine fifty six is one of those surplus guns that came in in the uh... late eighties early nineties we were buying them for like sixty five dollars a gun sixty nine dollars then 7.5 French then they went to about a hundred and twenty five and they stayed there for a very long time a lot of the guns that came out everybody had one they're fun to shoot they are again the moss forty nine rifle carved down they they basically kind of sportorized it not not uh... a private company the french military dead and uh... it was used by the uh... french foreign legion as a primary rifle first but they very quickly had developed and made sniper rifles in the same gun. So the rifle has an integrated grenade launcher. Everybody always asks, what's the big, flunky thing on the front of the gun? Well, it has an integrated grenade launcher, depending on which model. It is very well developed, and this one has the cheek rest and everything else on it that was typical of their Marksman's gun. I don't know if that's the original optics in the picture they're showing, looks like somebody traded out for something else that was European but not the original MOS 4956 Marksman's gun. These rifles are very accurate. They're built like a brick dog house. They are heavy. The first thing you're going to notice for what they look like and what they look like, two different worlds. It's the nature of the receiver and how it was built along with the magazine well. That's all one big chunk of steel in the middle of that gun, okay? Now, the French are very crude and rude when it came to the design, so it's very easy to read what's on the gun, if you pay attention. However, in this case, this is a 7.62x51 NATO variant in that after they brought the guns in, one of the companies did the work and rechambered the gun to 7.62x51 NATO, and that's what you've got. And a lot of you out there will find either gun out there, but mostly they were in 7.5 French. This became a problem because there has not been a whole lot of surplus that's come to the US in 7.5 French. It's why they very quickly to try and market these cheap guns, even though they weren't cheap to make, but they were cheap for the moment. That's why I would say a third of the guns, if not up to half of them, have been chambered to NATO. Now, they were not done by the French Army. There are some that did come in that were, but most of them that you see right now floating around were done inside the U.S. and they work, they function. What we did is a militia unit that's to my east. I had several of the guns, and other people did too. This particular unit, they built up quite dramatically and they wanted the guns. So what we did is we sold our interest, so to speak, to benefit the overall cause. And any French rifles that we find in the 7.5 French or the rifles themselves if they're in .308, We always route them to this group. So for our friend here in Michigan who bought the rifle, for $180, that's probably about a $900 rifle right now. It's a marksman's gun. First of all, it looks to be original factory. If you run into anything like this, first of all, you need to keep looking around, go to the different gun parts companies, go into YouTube, watch videos. At least in fact, I'll tell you who's best is forgotten weapons. Watch as many of the videos as you can because estate sales especially. Like I said, last weekend a person had seven different rifles. None of them were cheap. All of them were in a reasonable price range for what they were because they are collectible. They're unique. They used to be bread and butter guns, but it's 2021 and the world has changed. But these MOS rifles are a good weapon. Now, if you have a 7.5 Maas that's a Model 49, it will have a full stock like a Mauser, but it is a semi-automatic, magazine-fed gun, and it's heavy. That's the first thing you'll notice when you pick it up. Man, this makes a Grand seem light. Yes, it does. But the Model 56 was a pairing down and updating of the rifle to make it a little more in line with what was vogue in the 50s to 60s for a main battle rifle. They did not change the magazine capacity. It's still a 10 round mag, which is fine. For what the gun does, it works. uh... seven point five french if you're lucky if you pay attention go over to aims surplus dot com aims surplus dot com you will find ammunition uh... seven point five french pops up every once in a while there's no reason they should make more of it and i don't know why uh... look around and search for p p u seven point five ball ammunition would be your first best choice now the one thing about the french with with the uh... uh... different soft point rounds. We never, for the shooting, the amount of shooting we did, which wasn't as great as it could have been, the guns functioned with pretty much any bullet in them. The ramp is not radical, the French wanted it to be as straightforward as possible, so it was least likely to cause any malfunctions or issues, so magazine alignment with the chamber was pretty much where it absolutely needed to be. it's not like the magazine has to step up the cartridge has to do some kind of radical angle thing they were really very intelligent because the purpose was to minimize malfunctions with what may not be the best ammunition the world war time which happened uh... and the french are very familiar with that when they built this cup uh... things happen so they made it sensibly that respect it is uh... i can i joke crude rude the finishes typical french the quality of the product is very good uh... it is heavy it's grossly over-engineered i'd like grossly over-engineered if i want to fight world war four uh... strangely enough some of the french comes might still be around for a while because they were grossly over-engineered they are heavy they built the at left a lot of extra meet on the gun and it shows in terms of again wait you know performance It is, they are accurate by the way. So anyway, hopefully I covered that enough. If you do run into these, it's the Moss 49-56. That particular one is a .308 gun, and I do believe it is also a marksman's rifle. It may not have the right scope. You're going to have to do some research. But whatever scope it's got on it, sometimes they pulled off that military scope. Hopefully they didn't throw it away. that's worth money too but a lot of people put better optics on the roof because European philosophy of scopes versus what we do in America are two different worlds okay we do a lot of cool stuff because we have the money to do it and we have the industry which makes again a big difference now let's see next on the list were were at the bottom of the hour i'll tell you what let's do a bottom of the our music break if we could edward uh... and as a matter of fact guys uh... poker face there's a roll throw a dart hit the board and let's do a bottom of the hour poker face break that we've got it i don't we do and uh... again guys support the band w w w dot poker face dot com www.pokerface.com and when you get over there take the time, say hi and buy the product. We'll be right back. Little Poker Face is coming up right now on Friday the 13th. Thank you Edward, appreciate that again. www.pokerface.www.com. We have been busy this week and here we are looking at Friday and I'll tell you what still one of the things guys is really becoming a parent is we have become third world quietly uh... there is an area there's not a single area that you can turn to where you do not have a shortage we may not even have a product available to buy that's a third world people let me give you an example we went uh... we've got a fleet of you know different vehicles that we run and but the first one of them and you can't get suburban windshields right now now you get by now maybe let go get one if i was on the list still when i am technically on the list they went all the way back to the factory they start tracking through other sources the companies are available nine go out still probably pull one from a junkyard which is the the other option is have somebody do that and it knows what they're doing i used to have done it but i don't want to do it i really don't be because i know all things that can go wrong with you know try to install i mean i'd i'd probably get right but there are people who have the machinery the technology and it saves me a whole hell of a time to know that feel right and again i don't have to have it around for the moment that doesn't mean i'm not going to collect the tools for that i had just finished another tool project this week that gets me all the pullers and priors and benders I need for any kind of gear or fixture that I want to separate. And in fact, it's really funny, today I went to a couple of yard sales where they had tools and I found the last of this and the last two or three of that that I needed so that I can fold it, bend it, spindle, mutilate it, whatever I need to do. but there isn't any industry that does not have a shortage. If you think it's just ammunition, you're wrong. And if you think it's just powder, you're wrong. We're talking automotive parts. You're on a waiting list for certain key critical parts. Hourglass, you know, it's like the old story, guys, hourglass. You know, there's a pile up here, but you get to a certain point, there's a choke point with a handful of parts. that are precision parts that you can't get. You're on a waiting list five, six, and eight weeks. That's third world. That's not America. That's third world. America with, you know, Detroit, Audible K, guys. Not only should I have five different manufacturers to choose from, but I used to have over a dozen performance packages to choose from. Now, I probably still could if I said, hey, let's just go racing and be done with it. I actually could probably get it done faster because I know of at least 20 custom houses. One of them I know the guys, I went to school with the guys, they're over towards Brighton, Michigan. They got a shop about the size of two of my houses, that's it. But what do they do? Oh, they build performance parts. and they will build everything top to bottom for you if they actually have a certain number always in of systems in stock to rebuild a Chevy engine, a Ford engine Chrysler, what are you doing? What do you want? How much horsepower? Okay. It would probably be easier to do that than to do stock right now and faster to be quite honest. We're waiting for certain parts for an engine rebuild that should have been done a month ago and there is no, there's no promise on the horizon of say those parts being here new you know earlier so which is not going to happen but guys it every industry i don't care if it's manufacturing i don't care if you're repairing things i don't care what it is correct on the shopping list you're all short and it's not just the shortage of labor it's because of the enemies we have in israel and the enemies that we have in china who are working together and have been working together when they started naphtha and gap with the meal con traitors here in America, all three of these turds work together. And what we end up with is Third World America already. It's just that, well, by the way, you still can get beer. Can you watch the Netflix Obama channel where you can become Queerified and Pedofied? You watch those little girls all dressed like hookers? Yeah, wow, we really need more of that. By the way, go get some more beer. Oh, wait a minute, don't worry. Locally, we got the new hard liquor. First it was now we've got the new hard liquor short distilleries nearby. That's the big next wave now. As long as you have those big government licenses, it's okay though. So you can, you know, you can do that. That all you want. But fact of the matter is that there is no industry that is not being heavily affected by what we're talking about here. And it is not getting, it's not getting better. There's nothing on the horizon that is showing that this is loosening up. So we have a lot of work to do and we don't have a whole lot of time to get done with regard to preparing for when the wall hits. And the wall is closer than a lot of you even realize. Now they've been intentionally fiddle farting with the fuel, which by the way, it was already proven with four years worth of trumpet, no matter what anybody says there, and actually didn't just come out with trumpet. Oh, oh, bummer couldn't stop the research. It was done, or at least the prep that was done. and the industry hit perfectly and we all know what's going on with oil. Okay? Right now we're, we've got a trader, but he's not really working for us anyway. He's working for Barry Satoro slash Obama. Okay? We have a trader in the White House who can't walk down the sidewalk and go in the right place, right direction. In fact, even with Secret Service men all around him, the idiot stick has just lost. I just watched the video while we were on break. It's like the turd doesn't have a clue. He's just in a fog non-stop and everybody... He's pointing this way. Go over this way, sir. Yeah, even points in front of him with his arm and like there's where you go. And the sidewalk goes down and makes a 90-year return. There's no other way he could go and stay on the sidewalk. Right, and instead he follows the guard because the guard is doing what's called a sweep. his job is to flank where the president's going. Okay? Or in this case, the pedo. Okay, the pedo is supposed to move to the, you know, move down the sidewalk and you're supposed to create a bullet screen. Well guess what you can't do that well I guess you can't really I mean you're still right in front of him but well no he wasn't because the assumption was that after they told him where to go he backed up and he went around well the the the the petal sniffer meat puppet was you know continues to hobble forward but instead in his his dazed brain he follows the man who gave him the instructions I know exactly it was just like here's there's the tunnel vision well that the person that's in charge of the pope the fake ass person really isn't charged but it's the one that no bummer as his tentacle up through the bong hole of movement is mouth and penthouse anyway uh... the shortage issue there's not a whole lot we can do in certain areas but what we need to do what we need to be doing is starting to uh... again standardized and also uh... collected the repair you know the bears are going to need uh... if you're doing engine builds right now i know all that typically you can throw a core back out there but to be quite honest were better off hanging on to the engines at this time if you've got a standard that you're running uh... three fifty shabbos are premium right now but we're not doing a lot of three fifty shabbos in the traditional format why me we do have a uh... right now you're looking at a number of other newer motor packs You're going to want to have a watch for derelict or wrecks that people are wanting to get rid of, so to speak. When I say wrecks, I mean, not necessarily parting out, but like here in Michigan, metal mods, guys. You can have a great engine or at least a reasonably good operating piece of equipment, but the rust, the salt here and the lack of quality of materials anymore with the vehicles, are such that they just literally are falling apart and cannot be rebuilt. There's just nothing you're going to be able to do for them. That's a parts truck in classic form. What you want is something that's just running so somebody doesn't want to part it out enough that you can pull it off to the side and start taking critical minor components off it and inventorying them. You might just leave the vehicle whole, but I wouldn't just leave it laying outside anymore. That's one of the other things we're going to have to change. The big thing here is if you have engines, again, if you have a wreck or somebody plowed the back, kind of something you can pick up for nothing, one of the things we need to be doing, especially if you're going to want to metal out the wreck, in other words, get some money back for it, is open up the hood. If the hood can be salvaged, because hoods actually are a little higher up out of the rust, Put that off to the side and be ready to rebuild or at least refinish and take the rust out of it, primer it and have it ready to use however you want to use it. But anything under the hood should be detached and bagged. Bagged and tagged. In other words, put inside the bag what it is on a piece of paper. In addition to that, take them sharpie and mark the outside of the bag on two sides. Well, you know, both sides so that one way or another something survives to identify what it came out of and there's a reason. Unfortunately, some of you have F-150s. Well, there are changes after every three to four to five years, sometimes six, if you're lucky. And there's a significant change in the system purely for the sake of changing it and probably just to make it 10 to your slice cheaper. Okay? uh... but if you otherwise for ease in operation the more information you put on that uh... piece of paper and on that bag the quicker you're going to be able to turn around when the time comes to work on the equipment work on you know something that requires uh... you know proper maintenance if you have to have something to really you know messed up example of fire into the hood well we're going to scrap everything we have to but we're not going to be taking significant vehicle vehicle investment and dumping them anymore you're not going to be able to afford to do that remember you will own nothing annual be happy what we plan on owning something and we're going to take care of it but we need to be prepared to be able to do pretty much anything and everything from top to bottom on these vehicles in terms of maintenance. One of the things that I'm doing, I've got a crossbar that goes up underneath the engine. Let's spare. I'm just going to touch that up real quick, clean it up, get any rust on it that might be there off, and I'm going to paint it, give it about three, four coats of regular Krylon, and it's going on the shelf. Why? If I do any other work like that, when I take the other one off, this is going on to replace it on these Suburbans or whatever I got, Silverados, Tahoes. and it's already been cleaned up it's already like i'm putting a brand new part of the vehicle even though it's old inventory didn't cost me anything and the paint i'm getting from one of the distress doors but it will have a good high quality a high impact paint on it because down below it that takes a lot of beer takes a beating uh... in fact by the time i'm done i could also have an impact panel i've got those became off another military package so that could actually put uh... four-wheel drive slash impact kids uh... on top of that both into place there you go so the big thing here to an upkits uh... serpentine belt you need to start looking at if you have the eagles you're thinking about maintaining when they shut the parts off the rest of the way the stuff is gone it's gone and in fact let me let me explain to you this i know a lot of you don't have much money to begin with if you're going to change out of serpentine belt don't throw the old one away don't cut the old one off by god instead take it off, bag it up, okay get some of those big industrial Ziploc bags like I told you about before, but bag it up and put a marker number on it and exactly what it came off from by the year. Manufacture, model number, you know, what is the vehicle and the engine if you have the information which you should and that way you have spare parts. no it's not the best belt you were changing it because something is not as good it's probably you know tired maybe not maybe just time you figure you're gonna do it if that's the case and even if it is even if it is tired it's better than no belt if something happens you have some running time left on it and you already paid for it now what I like to do is take whatever boxes or or or packaging the other stuff came in take the other part put it in and i put no one quite right do it i do a like a like a postal address of exactly what it came out of what your it is the whole nine yards and that way that boxes my storage system example i've been changing out headlights on the uh... silverado and silverado sent on the uh... uh... suburban and others uh... i didn't throw any of the old ones away uh... if something happens right gets backed up somebody beat the problem vehicle the hammer gets bought by something down the road i'm not going to afford to buy parts are packed up more yellow with the semi just can't get up they were already in short supply when i was ordering these the last two times the replacement headlights and running light i had to wait five weeks for one of the running lights why ever completely out there were none of the system anywhere I don't have a problem with that. And I could have ordered, tried to order from, in fact, some parts are unobtainium right now. And in some cases, they're not even listed anywhere. Well, Mark, you can go get them yourself. Yep, I've been doing that. And guess what? I've searched, I mean, in fact, every one of the mass companies especially, guys, some parts aren't even on the inventory list now. You just can't get them. Okay. In fact, I'll tell you what, rear window, like for crew cab trucks, okay, front doors are standard. Silverado, Ford, F-150 doesn't make any difference. But when you get a crew cab or a jump cab and it has a crank window or has an electric window, oh, guess what? That second set of controllers and armatures, they're just not out there. Not the way they should be. Anyway, go ahead, caller, jump in there. Yeah, this is Tex-Mex. My brother is an auto body mechanic and I was talking to him and I mentioned, I asked him, I said, well how far, you know, is it bad, hard to get parts in the movie? So all he said is bad. He said he's waiting weeks and weeks and you know, they've got cars just sitting there and waiting on parts. and he said, you order and order, and it's all back order. And they just came, the car just sitting there, and the one he said was the worst, worst one, he said was the Ford. He said it's almost impossible. If you wreck your Ford, you might as well just park it. Well, and that's the problem, is again, you've invested thousands of dollars, most everybody has, if not more. tens of thousands and here you have this vehicle that you figured well when the time comes we got to fix it I'll just go down because this is America I'll just go down and fix it and everything will be right as rain well guess what people that just isn't the case so you need thinking ahead and advance go ahead call your brother yeah this is one of the intended consequences of the Cash for Conkers things some years ago. Oh, Cash for Conkers. That was what it did. It eliminated a big chunk of what would have been the parts inventory, absolutely, that would have been out there available as needed to keep the other vehicles that were part of that family of vehicles running. You're absolutely right. That was the intention. They even mentioned, you know, this will create holes in the inventory. And if they, of course, block bringing more in from overseas or because of course not being made in America now then you're screwed now here's one thing about windshields windshields are pretty much mostly made in Pennsylvania if they're American made they're made in Pennsylvania I think there's one other small plant down in the Carolinas okay but what's interesting about this is that The problem that they've got is raw materials. And the raw materials, well guess what? China selected specific material and equipment and what they did is they, you know, in each technology guys we're in this situation now where every one of them, there is this one item that all they have to do is stop the flow and the rest of it, you're frozen, you can't do anything to get the job done. that's in my engine engine rebuilds are like this right now and that's why i said now i'll give me a second caller this that's why i said with automotive i know you gotta spend a little more guys more a little bit in some cases but you know what you'd end up with a hotter vehicle with good performance uh... you know out of out of the chalks in terms of reliability and uh... you're not really spending that much more but most important is at least you got the product because right now standard in the standard OEM type or even aftermarket is in many cases just not available to do go ahead jump in their color please uh... yeah uh... what i was going to say was uh... i've been watching the down you keep on looking if you watch them or anyone else on on the uh... on the channel here is Washington, but he's a guy named, he goes over economics quite a bit, he makes a lot of sense. His name is the, he goes by the Economic Ninja, and this guy's pretty woke. he's or month I should say that but he knows what's going on he he actually mentioned that he read a Jekyll Island the creature from Jekyll Island. He's read that so he's pretty much he's pretty much on speed but he's always the stuff you won't hear from the shortages and stuff that's going on. that you don't hear from the mainland or from the main news, he's out there reporting it quick as he can. Like just yesterday, I was watching one of his videos saying that in China, the third, mainland China, the third largest, where the ships go in to the load and unload port. Yeah. The third largest port in China is shut down by 25% because of one COVID case that was turned up at the port. So I mean, so you're sitting there, nobody's, 25% of that port is not loading or unloading or ships are waiting to get in there. And that's a direct effect to us. So I mean, I really recommend watching it. Well, you know, one of the things that for all of us, I'm going to do it right now. Again, we told you so. We told you so. We told you so. We told you so. And what it comes down to is what was the purpose behind NAFTA and GATT? This is economic warfare. And everybody and anybody with a brain knew this. Everybody and anybody with any sound understanding of economics and of, again, class, culture, warfare. knew exactly what what the end result would be with us. Now here's the problem that we're continuing to be betrayed by the same turds in Washington and of course being attacked by the same turds overseas be they over in Haifa and Tel Aviv or over in China because it's the same clique working together and it's really you know the problem is what we what we're gonna have to do it's just like I've talked about combat guys and in this war coming up You have three phases of progressive development headed to victory. But at the earliest stage, we have to work off the existing inventories we have. As we do that, all we're doing is buying time so that we can get to phase two, which is minimal or small production replacement and small production implementation. When we get to phase three, we will still never have, and or will we commit, to heavy centralized production, but we will have larger scale production. Now this is true no matter what it is with variations and how you fight really aren't any different. But right now we have to have parts build up and this means if you have a vehicle, some of the vehicles I have here I have two complete sets of change out in all of the standard perishables. Plug wires, plugs, uh... caps you know redo radio distributors distributor cab distributor depending what module what type of engine you've got serpentine belts which i mentioned and here's another thing bow let her idler wheels for the serpentine belt now i'm going to point out the most common one that fails is on the top all right in front of the right in front of the actually when you look down on the radio that one cancer uh... uh... serpentine belt wheel uh... the nature of the spring and how much it will how much it actually takes in the way of of of activity in addition to its exposure dictates the things going to eventually sees up and break down they may not it may not stop but what's going to do is a great on the necessary torque on the belt which wears the belt now So what you want to do is make sure that if these parts are available, you need to start creating a parts inventory for those vehicles that you want to maintain, especially if they're combat vehicles. We're already building up a deep combat inventory for all of the equipment we have. Example is we have Sherman's. We have Sherman's. We've got Stewart's. We've got a bunch of stuff. We've been collecting back when this stuff was cheap, and we're still collecting as we find more caches of things laying around. Now that's all moved and prioritized. Now don't, please don't say something stupid. We're going to be here against these immeagrams. I don't know, but a Sherman's pretty good when you use it as an infantry support vehicle just for, you know, wailing away at inferior forces in front of you, because that's exactly how we're going to treat it. You know, if you're going to fight, fight, shoot, and scoot, you know what I mean? You're not going to stand there and wait to duke it out with anybody. And we always again, especially in the earliest stages of all of these actions, there is, under no circumstances does the word fair apply to anything. The other side will be bragging and laughing. They're right now laughing thinking we don't have a clue about what their intentions are. Well, we understand completely and all of you should too. You better not because you can't say you can be caught flat-footed if you've been listening to what we've been talking about here. That will never be your excuse. You know, it's the old story, oh man, I wish I hadn't heard that. but the fact of the matter is that what it does help you to mentally prep for the real problems that we are going to have to face. That's one of the reasons that we're talking about and we're already experiencing it. Guys, this is third world. Everybody goes, well, we could turn American into a third world. You're already there. They're just not acknowledging it. And again, I would point out this really wasn't any better when Trump was in. Okay, Trump was in and guess what they were all we were already experiencing this Whoo anyway, yeah, thank you. I needed that I've been one of our friends does Animal surgeries and send us another video. It's like okay. Well, I will watch it, but I'm not gonna do it right now I want to thank you to Ralph. Oh actually, you know for RT forgive me and My old buddy Ralph is what I call him uh... anyway one of the other things they're real quick to shop med that dot com shop med that dot com but i'm not just gonna complain that doesn't do us any good shop med that dot com we've got to have solutions another thing guys hit the art sales and hit the estate sales i've got a bunch of stuff uh... what four hours ago for free okay In that, I got a whole bunch of tools that were probably the husband of the woman that passed away, the people running the estate sale were just tossing stuff left and right. I've seen this before. I got a handful, like a set of tools that round out certain kits I'm putting together right now. You can do the same thing now. I would recommend guys if you see any of these Pipe wrenches, so he's going to want you to pipe rich for I don't know if no fails you can keep someone headed a real good Okay, my dad used to be really good with a pipe wrench on that respect But bottom line is it's one of those tools where you don't need it all the time, but by god There's so many ways we can apply it that if you can run into something, I just grabbed a bunch of the heavier, larger pipe wrenches, paid what, a dollar, two dollars? I got three of them from this freebie pile, I got three that are the midsize, and so I'm gonna really spread them out so I've got more than one kit done, but it'll be a complete heavy plumber's kit, full range with everything else, but it's also useful for a lot of other material and equipment out there. that you may have to fix or repair or you may need a little extra armstrong on. If you've got, for instance, ball hitches, being able to put that big, large wrench on there to give you weight, I've mentioned this before, not just the grip, but that weight, if you obviously pay attention to how you mount the wrench, how you attach it, it's going to give you that extra oomph that you need to break things free without busting things up. And again, where are you going to get replacements? Okay, where are you going to get spares? So you've got to start thinking ahead. And even then, I won't use a pipe wrench if I've got the proper wrenches for the job. But if I've used that wrench and I'm starting to see the thing try to distort, I'm not going to mess up a tool. I'm going to switch to the next level up. I'm not going to break it or bust it or cut it if I can get it off, if I can break it free. and that's a pecking order of proper maintenance operations the way it should be. But I do have a lot of bigger, girthier tools in the inventory that will probably get the job done. And that's how you need to be thinking. Of course, we try not to go to flame wrench if we can help it. We may use heat to help to break something free, but we're not going to melt anything or cut anything because once we start that, whatever heat you use to cut the part you don't like also is going to affect the part you did like. the one you wanted to you thought you were going to keep and that's especially true with shafts drive shafts you know for instance idler shafts uh... this is a problem when you're dealing with armored vehicles trust me because you have bogey wheels and things now floaters that have to be uh... they have to be are able to articulate and if you take the temper out of them especially since a lot of these are you know thermal forged pieces uh... you create a weak point and you're going to have additional distortion with a new part that you put on So you've got to be thinking ahead. This is why I also found out a few things about some equipment this week. Game, if I wish I'd known three years ago, I'd have taken the things apart because I should have known better. And I should have thought of it. Okay, it has to do with, you remember, everything's trying to go back to nature. And monument grade is not necessarily means that the thing doesn't work, but it won't come apart. And that's why again, all the different lubricants that are out there, but also again, everything from lock tight to making sure that the stuff doesn't bond together. Sometimes you want it to stick, but you don't want it to rust. Okay, rust is not good. Anyway, we're at the top here for everybody out there. We got a lot of work to do, you guys, of course. We're going to take over here in a minute because we've got militia town hall coming up. I'm going to go get some to eat and she's got food behind us ready to go. God bless the republic. From the new world order we shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the empire is on the run of war of the march. We'll be back in one hour but meanwhile militia town hall your program you guys can tune in, plug in and pitch in. God bless. Bye bye. is 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, 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 where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones, we're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. I'm at the AK-47, hopefully everything's coming across loud and clear. I know we've been having some issues with the conference line for the last couple of days. I don't know if that has anything to do with the FEMA tests they did a couple of days ago. That does seem to be when all this communication and power problems started. It seems awfully convenient that all these issues seem to just roll at the same time and continue to roll downhill. Well, we're going to open the prayers we usually do. Tracious Heavenly Father, we thank you, Lord, for letting us be here another Friday. We ask that you continue to watch over us as we move forward through this year. They continue to bless us and help us stay here and be able to do what we're doing to wake people up. We ask that you watch over our friends and family members who are recovering in the hospital. We ask that you guide over them and bless them as they are forced to stay in those situations in some cases. We ask that you watch over our friends and family members as they travel this weekend. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen. Alrighty. Well, let's see. I don't really have much of an update for Liberty Tree Radio right now at this time, guys. Although I have talked to Randy's daughter. We finally got ahold of each other last weekend, but I was in the middle of doing something else, and now we're playing FunTag again. So that's okay. We got, we made a connection there. Apparently, it was his granddaughter that was going to step up to do the program, but she's got some stuff going on in life. What might end up happening is his kids, his children, which are not children, they're older, may be stepping up to do an hour on Liberty Tree Radio in honor of their dad. Still need to work out the bugs on that to find out what's going on there. So yeah, we've got some motion moving forward on that When I last talked to her Currently they had put off a memorial service for Randy because we're waiting and and if you've ever dealt with the federal government on this You know what a pain in the arse it is To get a tombstone the flag that they're supposed to get if they're a veteran so that they were waiting for this stuff to arrive from the federal government's end before they did the memorial service and they are just now getting that in hand. So yeah, there's still some stuff they're dealing with there with Randy's passing and our prayers are with their families. I just wanted to let you guys know we were able to get ahold of them and find out what was going on. Let's see. I don't have a lot more updates for Liberty Tree Radio right now guys. So this is your program, it's not mine. I'm just a placeholder here and with that being the case, you guys can call in. The number is 712-432-0900. Room number 957-464 and the pound sign. Again, that's 712-432-0900. Room number 957-464 and the pound sign. That's interesting. Did we have a glitch or something happen because I'm seeing people coming and going and I don't see okay. There we go. Okay. Well, I'm having problems with my heads up display for this. I just press a button and all of a sudden I can see everybody. Wow. So yeah, bugs in the system. Go ahead, caller here on the air. Is Charlotte? Charlotte. Not right now. I've got a rebroadcast going in that window for her. She's taking a break to do some research. I should give her a call and find out how that's going, but I know she needed some time to read a book, work on a book, or something like that. I know Charlotte and I know her friend who's usually her co-host, she calls into the program all the time. I'm just drawing a blank. I apologize for that. But if she's listening, she could come up and give us a heads up on what's going on out there because she's usually listening. Phyllis, Phyllis, there we go. Yes. I should know that's the name of my mother-in-law. Yeah, but she made that announcement. You can go back on the Fridays in the archives. I'm trying to remember when her last day was now. But yeah, every one of the Fridays of the archives, the first two hours are her program. So if you go back to when the archives longer, that's where it stopped. You're welcome. I thought we covered that, but yeah, it's always good. If you don't know what's going on, ask us and we'll put the information up the other way people know. It's given me two hours of being able to do stuff on Friday before we've got to go up live, because once we go up live, I'm pretty much tied to this desk. I can't go too far. I've taken the opportunity of having the two extra hours to do some running around town that I normally can't do on Fridays to meet with people. I'm sorry if I hadn't been clear on that before, but yeah, she's not permanently gone. She's just taken some time to do some research and made sure it was okay with me before she did that. made sure it was clear that she wanted to continue doing the program, so she does plan on coming back as soon as she's done with the work that she's doing. Let's see. I had something else I wanted to bring up, and I'm not finding it at all. Three hours ago, okay, what is this? Burd mayoral candidate Tony Marino praised and met with far-right militia. that supports symbols linked with white nationalism. Okay, well, I haven't had time to read the story, but I'll link it over in Discord for everybody, and I don't know if there's an audio file with this or not, something we can play on there. No, it looks like it's a whole lot of reading, Red, White, and Blue, Freedom Circus, Honoring Military First Responders, yada yada. Well, anyway, I will. pop that in there. Or I'm wondering what symbolism they're talking about because they've even taken it as far as saying that the Punisher symbol is a, that's a comic book thing, you know, it's just crazy stuff. Let's see. Hey Ed, this is Fluffy. How you doing Fluffy? I've got some, actually I think I'm doing a bit better. I went to a a clinic called Med Centrists that specializes in wound healing. And I feel pretty good about them because they're not afraid to use medical honey to heal wounds. And they know about silver, too. So yeah, that's good. Well, you know, every doctor, you know, doctors usually lie about that when they know about silver and how it is a An antibacterial and antiviral, that's why most of your surgical equipment is made with silver. That's why the table tops, everything is made with silver. They know it's a clean metal, that's why they use it. Anyway, go ahead, Buffy. Yeah, they actually debrided the wound on my foot and coated it with medical honey. But they don't just know about it, they use it. I expect there to be a difference in just a few days when I see them again. So I'm optimistic about this. I think I'll come up with a good foot again. How is your toe doing? I mean, do you feel comfortable giving us an update on that? Well, of course, you know, I had the third toe amputated, went all black and gangrenous. back and they're developed a big open wound what they call pseudistically ate the flesh on the bottom of my foot. But now I've got a super high arch to the bottom of my right foot because I don't have any flesh there. This stuff ate it and the standard treatment that they were doing here was basically cleaning it and redressing the wound and using this on one part of it. were all genade and something else called yakin' solution and it wasn't doing a damn thing as far as I can tell. But now I've seen this other place and they're actually using a honey. I think I've got a very good outlook on it. actually sounds like he's a homo homeopathic doctor I've but then again never know some of the some of the newer doctors are out there are more into the homeopathic stuff because it's the silver alternate is the gauze bandage that they were wrapping it in or is it like a wet white wet wipe I pulled it up to see what it is and I've got two different versions that are shown up to me. One looks like it's a wet wipe and the other one looks like it's a bandage. So, what did they use on your foot? They were using the thing that looked like a small wet wipe to keep an area moist. I hope it's something like colloidal silver impregnated in the fabric, but it was actually as strong. But I don't know about that because it didn't seem to be doing much. Well, the silver, if it was colloidal silver, silver would kill bacteria. Not necessarily going to speed up your healing process. But it would keep the, it should, if it's silver, keep the infection down. I just put up the information on it for wound dressing, trying to see what's in it for you here. silver chemistry and antimicrobial efficiency. So, effectiveness of silver became more apparent, applicable treatment for infected wounds specifically. It's only got 0.5% solution, so it's kind of like colloidal silver. Except this is on the gauze. Okay, so yeah, it's embedded in the gauze that they put on your foot. Silver solution, silver, or a silver sulfodized cream. I didn't use the cream on you, they used the pad on your foot, right? So yeah, it has about a 0.5% solution of silver injected into the gauze. It says injected into the gauze, which is, I don't know how effective that would be, because gauze is designed to absorb, not really push stuff back out. So the cream sounds like it would be more effective for that kind of wound, because it would get in there and sit in the channel and whatnot. The liquid would be good for washing out the wound, you know, cleaning and debriding it. But if you're going to let it sit for any period of time, you'd, I would think it would be like a pull-fist and you want it to get down into the wound, you know. But I'm not a specialist in that area. It just sounds like what you would want to happen to me. But, and I don't like talking about injuries, but go ahead. That's Darzak. When I had the foot deal going on with the amputation, there was a silver impregnated gauze that went over the wound to keep everything else from sticking to the wound. And then we wrapped the gauze around the outside of it to soak up anything that got past it. Well, that's a silver stuff was to keep it from getting infected. And it also was a barrier to prevent the gauze from sticking to the wound. You know what it's like when you rip the bandage off. Yeah. Let's just take that off now. This would peel off. That would be the silver alginate, which if I'm saying it right, I hope not. It wasn't the alginate, but yeah, it was similar. Oh my goodness, so expensive. Well, like I said, I think it depends on the concentration, how much of it is. Like, there's rolls of this gauze that, like, get really expensive up to $721 for, like, a roll of a gauze. But there's also smaller packets, if you guys are interested in it, and some of the smaller stuff is, like, $17.99. I would look at the percentage of the silver in some of these, so it's... The size looks comparable, but the price is different and that could be where the price differs, how much silver they've actually embedded into it. Anyway. Yeah, the ones that I got were foil pouches that had a folded up sheet inside and I would take scissors and cut it to shape to fit the wound and then stick the rest of it back in the foil pouch and just tuck the top over and stick it back in the box until I need to change it out again in a couple of days. Yeah, there are a couple of I never wound up getting any infections and you know, they'd like it. They've taken half my foot off I never got any infections at all Yeah, there are a couple of official brands of it too. I'd like the foil pack one of them is max orb to I'm not even sure how to say that a quiz cell a quiz L a quiz L AG plus So that's just like three of the brand names are out there. There's more than one, but the Maxaorb and the CVS makes their own brand. Yeah, the AG is the silver. That's the designation for the silver. So maybe AG plus that's more silver than I'm not sure, but that was what I had was whatever. I forget the brand name was brand name, blah, blah, blah, and AG. And since AU is gold and AG is silver. What is CMC? I don't know that that's an element that might be a designation for the type of bandage or something Most periodic elements are two digits or two letters. They had planned that if they pissed me off enough to where I walked out of here to just use some gauze and soak it with the nano colloidal silver and put that on the wound as well as the manuka honey my sister sent me and that is also something that we used that is also something that they actually gave me that in the hospital. Excellent. You know because I was saying what do you have that's more natural that's not you know this harsh pharmaceutical stuff because you know what we're gonna get you some medical honey. And I said, medical honey, sounds good. I looked it up and I found out what it was. And sure enough, it showed up and it was, that's what it was, was a little bottle, a little squirt bottle of Manuka honey. So they actually used it in the hospital. It was actually something that they prescribed. I was surprised they would do anything like that. Didn't have the, this is our molecule that we've patented and we get to charge 800 times more for it. That was impressive. Yeah, and get to charge more for us. That's pretty much what it comes down to But what he was saying that the specialist is that seeing him is giving him the medical honey as well Like I said, you know, the coil you'll silver is good for disinfecting the wound debriding it Maybe if you can get it down into the wound, you know, and I know this sounds painful and dark You know if you're to briding the wound sometimes you want to that gauze to stick because there's stuff you want to pull out with it. Keep that in mind. You know, sometimes what's a saying from the never ending story? It must hurt if it is to heal. With a wound like that, especially when you're dealing with gangrene, loss of feeling is not a good thing. You want to be able to feel that area. When you're not feeling the area, that just means you've got more dead tissue that probably is going to have to come off. And I know I'm talking to you two and you two have both been through it I have around people who have gone through it and helped them with cleaning the wounds out Stuff and I know it's not pretty it's not a job that a lot of people like to think about but if you're thinking you're gonna be your team's medic You better be bracing yourself for some of this stuff and testing to see how well you react around things like that volunteer at like an animal shelter or someplace like a veterinarian clinic where you can be around watching the animals being treated. If you can't deal with that, you're probably not going to be able to deal very well as a medic. But everybody should know, you know, something about medical treatment. That's why we cover it quite a bit on the air. If you get shot, we're not going to, you know, leave you behind. We're going to try to patch you up. I have heard people with the other sentiment, you know, that if you're wounded, we're just going to shoot you. I'll shoot you first if you have that attitude around me. You know, we can't afford to lose our people, especially when some of this stuff is very manageable. I mean, I'm not going to say you're going to get better overnight, but you can manage. a lot of these wounds in the field. It's been done before in the past with pulses. Probably a majority of our losses during the Civil War when they talk about amputees and whatnot, wasn't because they didn't know how to treat the wound. It was a material that they were treating the wound with. You know, sewing up, stitching things back together with the same piece of thread that's been through somebody else's leg and whatnot. Not because they wanted to but because the resources were so limited that that's what they ended up doing Which is one of the things that dad stresses about you know medical supplies get it now. We need it deployed When we start treating people we don't want to be in that situation. You know Boy, yeah, the line is like crystal clear tonight, so I can't tell usually there's a little bit of a hum and I know I was just talking to you guys, but can you hear me still or did I lose you sound like You are just five by five. You are just perfectly clear. Okay. Then make sure because, you know, we've, last couple of days, man, we've been having such terrible time with the conference line, the call-in line. It does seem, like I said, it does seem interesting. I hope these problems just like started on that day they were supposed to have that emergency test. That didn't show up, although I have found like another thing they're saying might have been the reason for the emergency test and let me pull it up here FCC proposes 20,000 fined against ESPN for apparent EAS violation. That's the emergency announcement. Wait, let me I'm gonna get the abbreviation wrong the emergency alert system violations because apparently ESPN was instead of playing the emergency alert system during some of the tests in the past, they have been playing an alert tone. at a level that doesn't definite out their games and they haven't been breaking away from it. So ESPN is being fined $20,000 for the violation, which is really for a company like that. You're tired of their dealing with big sports and everything. That's probably nothing. Yeah, it's like a drop in the bucket. But that's the excuse of them doing the test to see, make sure it was their equipment. that was working and not so based on this this find that they're trying to push on ESPN. And... Go ahead Tom. Speaking of EAS, last night my phone lost everything. I lost my internet, I lost my texting ability, I couldn't call out. So I called my phone company today and they said oh it was because of all the storms. The storms are like days ago. How is it affecting it now? Well, that's part of one of the things I want to talk about tonight is that it's interesting. We're still dealing with like little blackouts and things across the board. It seems that this is more of like a hack attack than a weather situation. Especially like we posted the blackout, the outage board from DTE for Michigan for Southeast Michigan so people could see it for themselves what we were talking about when it happened. It was splotchy. I mean you had it looked like somebody was playing a game of polka dots you know or connect the dots. You had whole areas, big areas that had large outages, you had some small areas, but if you know the grid, if you've been there, the way the grid used to work, traditionally worked, if you lost a transformer in that area, you would like to lose. the whole area and it never would affect the landlines which is one thing it has been doing is affecting the landlines. Now up where you are, I know this because I helped the guys who were working with, oh come on, Ma Bell and the other telephone companies up north when they were doing this because we would run with the crew that was putting the antennas up. They bounce a lot of your telephone signals and your internet signals get bumped by microwave. So there's already, even though you're on what should be a landline, you're only a landline to a point and then they're bouncing you with microwaves across the state. So that they are all supposed to have emergency propane generators or natural gas generators at those facilities that kick on, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, in case of a power outage. So they are still supposed to have independent power From the rest of the system that way if power goes out it does not go out on the communications You still contact people The old telephone system The copper wire did this too and it was such a low voltage that you could hook it up You could get reading off it, but it was like it was like under 12 volts. You know, it was nothing But it was enough to run the telephone now. That was all I needed to do Nowadays, everybody's like cable and DSL, but DSL really though should not be affected by this because a lot of the DSL systems have hijacked your old copper wire systems in some areas. Like down here, what they were calling DSL was just a regular copper copper landline when we were in the apartment in Dickinson and they said, oh yeah, you've already got a hookup for a DSL. I'm like, no, that's just a landline. That's not, no, that's all they use. So yeah, so when we were on DSL at the apartment, that's what it was. It was just a regular landline with a faster modem, basically. It's like, wow, so telling you that you needed a special line was kind of a big fat lie. They just needed to flip you over at the box onto the other service, which is kind of true. I mean, even when we had ISDN, 256K up and down, you know, that was a big one. That was what we had at the studio for Republic Radio in Michigan and Bell Creek. That was what we used it for Liberty Tree Radio We were in Michigan and that's all copper wire guys. That's no different than your old copper wire phone system just On a different network. Go ahead Tom Well, here's the kicker where I live all the electric is on the ground How do you have power outages when everything on the ground? They got five flooding going on no You know why Michigan traditionally had it above ground and why most places have it above ground? Flooding. You want the wires above the water table, you know, when you have like a major... That's a problem that we have down here when it rains. We have power outages because the system's flooded. A lot of the systems down here in Lubbock are underground, so when you have an outage, it's all underground. You've got to figure out where that junction box is flooded, and you've got to drain it and then find out what's blue because of the water across the circuits. I heard a beep beep there. We've got another caller. That's me trying to put my phone on speaker. Sorry. Well, if you put it on speaker, remember to put it on mute, otherwise it creates an echo. Oh yeah, I try to mute. Even if I talk, I mute right after I say what I'm saying. I yield. Okay. Yes, it's interesting. They talk about this infrastructure bill. It's cute that this is all going on while they're talking about the infrastructure bill too, that they're trying to push to steal money from us for our roads, our electrical, our internet systems. Well, you know what? This is the upgraded system, guys. This is what we got when they went around, especially in Michigan. This is what you got after they went around with sledgehammers and destroyed the junction boxes for the regular dial-up phone system. You know, the copper wire is still sitting underground, but copper wire, if it's exposed, you know, it does go bad eventually. Yeah. Yeah, if you've ever seen how complicated those things are, where they line in all those things, it's a nightmare. And they've done the same thing around here. Almost every place that you see one of those boxes. I mean, obviously some people still have landlines and they haven't fragged them out. But most of them are busted open. and laying on an angle and you can look in and see and the wire, it's just a jumble of wires. Oh yeah, well, you know, we've got a, we went through that fiasco when they switched everything out here in Lubbock to fiber optic. They went down the aisle, ah yeah, oh boy. Now when it was, when it was just telephone line, when it was DSL here, they cut the copper, easy to replace. Now when they dig a trench for somebody who's getting, cable or what was the other one? There's another service. Cable, DSO, or there's another services out here. Anyway, when they dig a trenchboard, if they cut anybody who's got fiber optic, well, you may have to wait a week to get that fixed because they have to bring somebody in who knows how to weld the line together. And the usual trench diggers that they bring out don't necessarily know or have the equipment on how to do that, especially if it's one of the other companies. They make a big deal about know what's underground in your area because you're responsible for it. But none of these companies that come out who they hire for subcontractors, they don't care. That's the first time they did it. They wired up our place here. And then they went right down the alley with a ditch witch for a guy at the end of the street who also had the new service and cut every single one of us along that line. That was when we had DSL. Now we've got the fiber optic. We did upgrade that for doing the radio station and the other stuff that Shelly liked to do, the gaming and whatnot. Just so we had more bandwidth. But yeah, any time that gets damaged, they've pretty much told us, it's like, oh yeah, it could be a week before you get somebody out to fit. It's like a week? Really? Although fortunately I have not had that problem yet every time we've had a problem. I have actually gone out of the way to get to know the guys out here who managed the area for the subcontractors. And they're usually wanting to come out to fix it anyway. But it's interesting, you know, it's all about who you know, I guess, when it comes to that, how quickly you get service. So keep that in mind too when you're dealing with stuff like that. I'm sure that there are other people who feel that they are more important who are getting their equipment fixed long before you do, Tom. You know what I mean? It's not that they couldn't do it, it's that they won't hire more people to do it and they won't train them to do it. Because that costs money. And it's not like most of the stuff, the repair stuff where they're talking about like rebooting systems and whatnot, it's not like a terribly difficult or hard thing to learn. Reconnecting wires and whatnot, there is safety involved, especially when you're talking about dealing with power. There are steps you gotta take to make sure you don't electrocute yourself. But, you know, that's something that you could do with on-the-job training, especially if that's all you're doing. You know you have somebody run around with an apprentice and they show the apprentice how to do it that way you force multiply Of course a lot of the companies are out there not thinking that they're thinking how can we automate it and get more people fired? Because we don't want to pay them I Heard another dang or two guys you can start six to unmute yourself and join us on air We get about 15 minutes left in the program the number is seven one two four three two zero nine zero zero remember nine five seven four six four and the pound sign if you want to call in join us on air add to this topic and Or if there's something else that you think is more important that we should be talking about, if there's a bit of news, information, legislation, training exercise, rally, a protest, ours or theirs, that you think people need to be made aware of for their safety or for their own knowledge, you can call in at number 712-432-0900, room number 957464 on the pound sign and join us on air. That was a mouthful. Maybe we should all move to India or the Philippines. They'd love that wouldn't they? I don't know. They might. I was looking at something, you know, the good job, there's an article somebody sent me, it's like good jobs aren't gone. You can still find good jobs. Ten of the, it was like ten of the most advanced technology cities best for jobs in the world. None of them are in the US. We're all talking about North Africa, South Africa, New Zealand's got a couple of cities there that are looking good in that department. Smart cities, right? Yeah. Smart cities. Yeah. Actually, that is one thing I didn't see. I didn't see any of the pilot smart cities like the one in Paris or Greece. that are, you know, they're the pilots for the Spar City. I didn't see any of those actually on the list of places to go. When you're talking about factory jobs for building batteries, for building cell phones, for building computers, they're all overseas or they're in South America. There's nothing being built here as far as a factory job. And they're paying big money, aren't they? Well, that's what they claim. Yeah. You know, they're definitely charging us big money. Yeah. In some places, $1.45 an hour is big money. Yeah. Is it $1.45? I mean, a Rupal 45 or? Well, I'm saying the equivalent of $1.45 an hour that we would make. A Shekel 45. Well, it's like the Zimbabwe, or what money is that again? I don't... Yeah, the ZIM, the $500 trillion note. Yeah, I've got one. I got a couple of those. It's worth like a few pennies here. Yeah, I've got a couple of those. They're supposed to cash in, man. Those are going to be worth millions. At least that's what they keep telling us. Maybe if they strike oil and Biden begs for more oil from their particular country. I mean, that's what he's doing right now. Shut down our pipelines. Shut down new oil drilling here in Texas. They just really, it's like they targeted Texas for a lot of this stuff like the Port of Houston. Remember when they shut down that pipeline that affected the Port of Houston with stuff coming in and whatnot? That's also where my wife who did the drug testing out there, she could tell you about all the ships that are sitting out there lined up tankers waiting to come into their fineries here in Texas to unload their oil. Bump it out, but right now you know we got that we're trying to become less more environmentally friendly Yeah, we can't produce it, but we're gonna go to all those third world countries and say please produce more and ship it to us Yeah, we can't do it ourselves You know we don't have energy independence and of course that costs more to do anyway It takes more time to ship it across the ocean it would be if we were doing it right here in our home backyard Everybody is like oh Saki the press secretary, you know, well, they shouldn't be gouging. I gotta try and find this dink. I don't have it. I listened to it earlier today, but she pretty much said this. It's like, well, yeah, the prices are going to go up, but they shouldn't be gouging the prices while we have it. They should gradually bring basically saying that yes, this is where we want the fuel prices to be, but they weren't supposed to just flip the switch and it be this expensive. They were supposed to do it gradually, but they didn't listen to us. They've been talking for years about wanting five and six dollar a gallon gasoline, right? They've been threatening us for years They're calling it price gouging, but it's exactly where they want it to be the gasoline companies and the gas is Flip the switch a little too soon. Actually. I think actually she says like it could even get higher before things are done, but they weren't supposed to go There's like a whole little press interview with it I'm not sure if it was today or yesterday where she's talking about it, but it's just like Biden getting up and begging the OPEC nations to send more oil to us. We had a pipeline. You shut our pipeline down and you funded Russia's. They didn't talk about how Trump was so pro-Russian, blah, blah, blah. Well, at least Trump was the one who put the sanctions on the Russian pipeline. Trump was the one who was supporting our pipeline. If you want to do that left-right BS scenario, which one do you think served the nation more when it comes to energy independence? When I was paying $1.99 a gallon, I was pretty darn happy, let me tell you. I was going to say a lot 30 years ago when I was paying $0.89 a gallon, I was a heck of a lot happier. Yeah. And they were making a fortune. They were making a fortune off of that price. The question is... Standard oil, Rockefeller, go back through the John Rockefeller thing. Let's get the fossil fuel going and let's rape them for it. And like Mark says, it's a byproduct of all the other oil products that you can get out of it and all the plastics and everything. Gasoline, at least the stuff that they do now, back in the 70s, gasoline was a completely different product. I mean, back then it was red and it's, I mean, when you were siphoning gas out of that car, which I did a lot, and you got a mouthful of that, that was some heavy oil in your mouth. And right now it's like, oh, it tastes dirty. It tastes like clay. Let me run something by you guys, you know, just to make an example of this. not the gas station that's making money off of the gasoline prices. It is not your mom and pop gas station. We got one down here that is affiliated with Valero, right? Valero has had problems in this area. A lot of their stations are run down. They have to meet and if they need any work done, first they got to meet EPA standards. They have to get permits. They have to get make sure that everything that they're getting is up to code and everything and they have to pay for that all before they can even start work on the gas station. Then once they start work on the gas station they've got a limited amount of time. By then their first permit is probably expired so they've got to get another permit. Which is why we've got one gas station down here on the corner that has lost the pump that somebody has ran into that had been sitting vacant. It happened like the first year I moved up here to Lubbock and they still haven't got it fixed because they were bouncing back and forth on this permit BS, which they can't afford because it's a mom and pop gas station that's affiliated with Valero. Valero's not going to give them the money to fix the pump, you know, unless they're building a new gas station. So yeah, you've got these missing teeth at gas stations around here where the gas pumps have been hit. Now miraculously, You would think that, you know, that happening would be, you know, devastating to like a gas station, but apparently it happens enough here that most of the Valeros have like two or three pumps. They're either out of order, tilted on an angle, or just completely missing because they've been hit by vehicles. But they can't get them fixed because of all the federal BS that they've got to go through in order to replace that pump. They're not making enough money from the gas sales. They make more money off of the BS purchases. Concessions. Yes. The concessions. You go into a gas station and you compare the price of a candy bar or soda pop to what you can get at a grocery store. It's like three or four times the price. That's because that's where they make their money. Right. Most of what you're paying for with gasoline when you go to a gas station is the federal and state taxes. Because it's convenient. That's why they call them sea stores. Right? And you know what? Because of how much America loves to travel, that and that federal and state tax, what is that tax supposed to go towards, guys? It goes through the politicians' pockets. Oh, yeah, but what is it supposed to go towards? Oh, the fix the roads. This infrastructure bill, which we already have an infrastructure bill in place, if they manage the money properly, they would have the funds for it. Because that's one thing, everybody is addicted to driving their cars. So we're addicted to driving. We're addicted to oil. For some reason, we wanted them to put it in our toothpaste. Well, think about it. I mean, for everybody that is driving on the street, every mile that you're taxing, And they're talking about doing a mileage tax, too. Yes, it's in that bill. They passed that. But you're already being charged a mileage tax based on the amount of gas you got in your car. Exactly. And if you get lower gas mileage, you're getting taxed more per mile. Right. So yeah, think about that guys. As often as people travel, I mean even if you're an illegal immigrant, even if it's an illegal immigrant driving around in a car, they're still paying taxes to maintain the roads. But they're not maintaining the roads. No, they're not. It's just like the scam through the how money millions of dollars or most of the lottery is up to now. And that money is supposed to be split with the school systems. Yet we have all these failing schools. How does that happen when you have that much money sitting around? And how many people are actually winning that money? Uh-huh. They're not giving that money to real people. There ain't no way. And they're not putting that into the circle. Not those giant jackpots. Maybe some of them smaller ones once in a while. But when they get those big, big, big jackpots, They're not giving that to real people. No way. I've often wondered that. They bring some CIA guy in and change his name. And even if you do get it, you don't get the full amount because Uncle Sam's got Heather. That's right. Hey, here in Michigan, in Warren, Michigan, I remember when I turned 18, you know, the one the lottery you had to be 18 to play the lottery and and they I can't remember it was on TV and One of them one guy went to school with he he bought a lottery ticket for his 18th birthday and he and he won and It was I don't know a million dollars or something and he bought his parents house He didn't even get any money yet, but he bought his parents house They moved down to Florida and he had a big party and And he got drunk and the kerosene heater went to the hilaren and burned his house down and killed him. And he never even got one check. I know Uncle Richie, that's what we call him, in Dexter, Michigan. He won the lottery, I think, three or four times. Wow. And we would, you know how he got his money for his lottery tickets? He would walk around and pick up soda cans. Yeah, collected empty. And then spend all of that money that he spent returning the empties on lottery tickets. He won the lottery three or four times that way. He won. Wow. And you know, he was friends with my mom and dad because you know they work the grocery stores or work the gas stations. And he did this all the way up till past he was retired. You know and you would think he'd be retired after like the first time. I never considered him retired because he always found something to keep himself busy with. But almost as soon as he would win the money he would lose it again. That's what usually happens. I had a guy that put a liner in my swimming pool and after he put in my pool he went to the to the sea store and he bought a hot dog right or a couple of hot dogs the only hot dogs they got grilling on on them rollers in there and he he used a hundred dollar bill he bought two hot dogs and a soda and he asked for his change in easy picks and it was like the largest jackpot in history at that time. It was around 1999 or so. He won and three people shared it. He got like $60 million. I think he took the cash option or something. He actually got the money and my pool leaked. And I could not get ahold of him and I got ahold of a pool guy that knew a pool guy that knew a pool guy that knew him. And I kept calling the number and finally his son answered and he was taken over to business and he finally came and fixed my pool. And he said, dad bought a big house on the coast in Texas and he bought a house up north in Michigan. And then he bought this pool hall here locally. and he put his buddy in there to manage the place for him. He basically bought it for the buddy to have a job, you know. But yeah, he's, and I don't know whatever happened to him, you know, I haven't heard anything, but that was like back in 1999. That's close to the kind of a doctor. Well, you know, because you took that cash option, when the federal government takes that money, supposedly when you do that, a larger portion of that money that you give the government is supposed to go to the schools. That's the larger portion of it. Show me evidence of where that's ever happened where that's improved a school district or where it hasn't been funneled into like buying some Shady property in the middle of a swamp where they want to build a school because the superintendents friend Yeah property that he wants to sell that otherwise the state won't let you build in because of a wetlands act They're right you or I can't build there, but they can That's what happened to Dexter, Michigan with the new Dexter high school. I'm aware of the time sweetie It is Shelly's birthday too by the way. Happy birthday Shelly. Happy birthday. How old? Don't ever ask. Not to say that. Don't ever ask how old a woman is or how much she weighs brother. I thought that was your daughter. No that's my wife. Okay, okay. Well forgive me. the intelligence report is coming up next we'll be back next Friday at the same time. Have a good weekend, Ed. You too, guys. God bless. The intelligence report is coming up next. Hey, when they come for the guns, give them the lead. When they come for the gold, give them the... Constitution. You know, the right to bear arms is because that's the last form of defense against tyranny. Not to hunt, it's 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 where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones. We're going to beat you. We're going to vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said. We've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave, in this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The 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've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. and your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. 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, keep the torture 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? For your training and you will come back alive. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. this is the evening intelligence reporter bar korkian one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories southwest north east and south ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com LibertyTree Radio on satellite and we're 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 total reference out there or freebie and evening to all of our friends out there at lower forty nine including the great state of jefferson just three hours behind us along with the rest of konos the outline two states territories in the clock it is a two six p m eastern standard time it is friday cinco d'amode and quarter-master friday and of course the thirteenth of August which is Friday the 13th. It means absolutely nothing 13 here You've got it here. I'm working on something. So I'm not gonna be able to give you a break Not a problem. We'll tell you what we got a couple things we're gonna touch touch on here again It is Friday It is 2021 old earth calendar 2021 battle for the Republic dance of the sword and so here we are and uh... quick reminder again uh... over it apex gun parts dot com apex gun parts dot com to get a couple of really good by his on uh... and field part for those you have been asking a bunch of their head but a bunch and feel that have come in but they're five hundred dollars apiece i believe that atlantic scottam But a lot of you do have older surplus guns you're trying to bring up the snuff. And I will remind you again that most everybody has number 4 mark 1 parts in inventory. But Apex has got probably the best price on a lot of the parts right now. So if you're building up a number 4 mark 1, and by the way I wouldn't even worry about going full military on it anymore. If you've got a good stock on it, I'd say leave it. If you've got it basically in place, the big thing is if you're trying to scope mount it, there's a number of solutions. B-squares are really quite reasonable. And on the infield, number four, or the smelly, the number one mark three, they work flawlessly. They're actually very, very, very rigid. So you might look at B-squares as a solution for a scope mount. Otherwise... I would point out too, the number four mark one, you don't need a bayonet lug because the barrel typically has the bayonet lug right there attached to it. It's a socket type and over at Apex they have the standard spike bayonets for, I think it's two for $12 and some odd cents right now. It's actually quite a reasonable price. They're used, don't care about them being fancy. and you can get the job done with them for at least putting a spike on the end, a sharp pointy thing on the end of the rifle, there's an option. And that is over at ApexGunParts.com, but they also have extractors, firing pins, a lot of small parts you might need, springs, depending on what it is, and even body parts. So, and number, if you have the number three, or number one mark three, forgive me, the number one mark three end fields, They have bodies training holes for like eight dollars apiece if you need to build up another magazine or you want to build a few more Take your basic magazine and use the follower in the spring to model up what you need or part part it together It is possible to do so The holes that we've been getting from apex. I've actually got quite a few of them uh... we've been putting together their beautiful something wrong with it just not pretty because they're all greased up number one number two they've got trainer markings on them that can be eliminated and all the standard internal magazine components fit just fine so if you've got a mag that may be even damaged take all your internals switch it over to the other magazine hall congratulations carry out now i do want to ask uh... a little from a full feedback here because we do have another option to offers something that we can give people as a gift as a better priced item than the market because we need to be able to of course benefit. The idea is you're donating to Liberty Tree Radio. But the idea is we'd still be undercutting by 60, 70, maybe 80 dollars this particular item. Depends on what I can get as a final price if I can get a confirmation. on interest, but it is the XSUDE. I want you guys to find this, go do a search, XSUDE EXUDE OD-50 direct light illuminator flashlight with CALS LED lighting system. Again, this is the XSUDE EXUDE OD-50. That's capital O, capital D, dash five zero. Direct light, illuminator, flashlight with cals, that's capital C-A-L-S, L-E-D, that's in caps, lighting system. Now let me read this to you here real quick. I'm familiar with these, I'll explain where these would be useful in a moment. The Exud OD50 light is a high performance, extremely long distance, handheld illuminator that projects a true collimated focused beam of high-definition LED light. Use them to easily identify objects and game animals up to 400 yards away. It has multiple uses such as law enforcement, search and rescue, ranching, and various industrial applications. Flashlights use reflectors. An exudlite does not have a reflector, it's the un-flashlight. Exudlite by Optical Dynamics from Umorex uses direct projection technology, DPDPT, a patented photonic methodology that uses a collimated amplified lens system. The system employs an arrangement of multiple lenses to capture, transmit, and focus the light emissions. Exud Light creates a crisp, clean, clear focused circle of light at long distance without using a reflector. The focus beam of light is infinitely brighter, doesn't fade or disperse, doesn't leave dark spots and doesn't reflect back into your eyes to negatively affect your vision. It gives you natural eyesight, your natural eyesight, the ability to function at its best without adverse reaction to the reflected light which allows a hunter to hunt more comfortable, achieve better target acquisition, and ultimately have a successful hunt. with the Xude OD 40, that's not what we have here, this is the OD 50. You'll enjoy hour after hour of hunting success. Yeah, I think so, considering what we plan on hunting. Anyway, this is the OD 50. The write-up is for the OD, like you guys just mentioned here, it actually says OD 50, but then all of a sudden at the bottom it's OD 40. The OD 40, this is the model before, because I just read up on it here a minute ago. before we start the program anyway like twelve point two five inches packaging custom storage case well uh... max beam distance white five hundred yards max beam distance green two hundred fifty yards so there's uh... three brightness settings half click button operation IPX7 rated, waterproof, and submersible. LED four cluster, Cree type, C-R-E-E, okay? Now, the average price on these is over $200 a unit. Where this would be of interest is to help to reduce or damage light collection technology with the enemy. Oh, although it's for hunting, it's for hunting. Oh yeah, for game, for hunting. There are a number of different uses for this, although it's again, it's one of many different things of interesting in the tool tab in the toolbox, you know, for tools. You know, we've offered the red, green, blue night vision, or night vision, gah, I keep doing that, red, green, blue, sighting system. The monocular with the illuminator, which by the way is a similar little square variant on this particular light with not a greater range but pretty good range. We've been experimenting with that. I've gone out half a mile on a target with that right now, the little monocular, and the monoculars allowed me to identify biped or quad-ped quite successfully. So I would say I can't complain about that for a day or a day, obviously a day, you don't need the illuminator. And then it's just a regular light collector, but at night, one of the things I do like about the LED, the pattern of LED they're using is it basically allows you to collect normal optical spectrum color. So at night, you actually are getting, rather than your eyes, especially with the element purple being overrun, and your eyes are working with whatever the artificial collector is doing. The coloration is quite accurate and that's another thing about friend the fo shoot no shoot that is kind of nice to have so just a heads up there Now these do not have this is just an illumination device. It is the Xude OD-50 direct light illuminator flashlight with cowls LED lighting system We'd probably be looking at a hundred and thirty dollars We may do a little better, but I think $130 is going to be sensible because we do have to ship it. But we'd be looking at a lot less than the average price that you're going to pay for it out there, and everybody will be happy. We have a good donation out of the deal, and you in the process get a hell of a buy on a unique piece of technology. But you need to go read up on it first. I don't need anybody to make a decision. But if anybody sees an interest or has an interest in this, let me know. and they need to know sooner rather than later because this is one of those who are from the wholesaler. There aren't that many of these available but there's a good number. Not a great number but a good number. So if I act on it now then we would be doing well. But again, I'll say this will be a $130 donation. If you'd like to add a little more for shipping that would be great. And again, the turnaround would be pretty quick. I've already got some of these on the way. and I will see what we can do about maybe making a block order so they'll have a quantity on hand but they are a lot more expensive than the other items that we've offered. However, look at the normal service price out there. It's about 200 to 200, well not even 200, it's 220 to about $259 is what they're asking. Everything from eBay to Amazon to whatever the price rolls back and forth by about $30 so it depends on where you're going and even then it's there's only a few slight lower prices for a special for the moment like today 24 hour a 24 hour special I ran into that and that's 229 so for 130 perhaps 135 although I'm going to say 130 to be safe I think that make everybody happy we'd be doing well We'd be able to offer a, you know, you can offer a donation, we can offer a decent gift for thanking you for that donation and everybody is going to, you know, pretty well get what they want. One more time, that is the Exude OD-50 Direct Light Illuminator flashlight with CALS, L-E-D, lighting system. And it's by, it's the Exude, E-X-U-D-E, that way you can look it up, see what you think about it. We're going to be tearing the hell out of these to see what I can do to get maximum range. I'd be able to, if it says 400 yards, we can probably press it way beyond that. But what I really want to test it on is, and what it would be useful for, is helping to do night vision and possibly even thermal suppression. If this is that focused and amplified, the only thing that would be better would be lasers. And lasers we already have ready. We have high output laser scientifics that we got decades ago that will just, well, they won't burn a hole through anything, but there's technology in front of you or bare eyeballs. It's going to do to them what they thought they were going to do to us. So just a heads up on that one. But again, this is not laser. This is LED, these are LEDs, but very highly focused LED, making them very useful. And at the very least, standard operational security in a regular environment. Now you can pinpoint and observe and you can of course illuminate from one point and be observing from others. You don't have to be right where, you know, right in front of where in line with what's going on. Go ahead, caller. I thought I heard a caller there. Anyway, any input? Anybody want to ask any questions, please? And in addition, actually I've got another item I've got. I still have the technical printout on it. there are two other electrical items that came into play here tonight i hadn't checked all the emails but now they've got a few words of being offered and uh... by the one good thing the source is but very reliable and very timely and delivery so i cannot complain about them all the only problem is this is a very fine dot they've got it they have a tendency to you know the tickle meter goes down real quick They did run out of the red-green blues. We did not, by the way, but I haven't said any more because if anybody places an order like we just had a monocular order the other day, I want to make sure that we can follow up right away. I'm not getting this stuff so I can pile it up at my end. In fact, we had this happen. There was one order, and it happened sometimes. It looked like it was a duplicate of the same order, but it wasn't. One of you wanted to order a second red-green blue. soon as i knew i got in the mail had a monocular with the same thing shouted out right away why i'm not doing this just for the part of it if i provide you with better technology so you can fight more effectively we all benefit from that though if i if you didn't get it i need to know and then we'll follow through again according and again i appreciate the quick input by everybody out there because sometimes with more than one of us handling the stuff especially when it comes to a number of things that we've been sending out. Remember we have a thermal project going on right now and I guess I'm going to touch on that for a minute. All thermal has GPS. We're getting rid of the GPS. Our units will not have the tracker GPS cell phone type leash up your ass technology that's out there for pretty much everything. But it takes time because we have to disassemble the unit. Well, it's kind of like doing brain surgery and we're eradicating all of the, we actually have a software package modifier that gets rid of even the software on board for the handshake. So that if for some bizarre reason you happen to be within some strange close proximity to whatever it is, not only have we eliminated the hardware, but we have part of the software sculpted out of the machine so that that was especially critical. For our friends listening we just delivered 10 here what about two weeks ago everybody's happy with it we're doing field tests right now because this is the first wave. The fours are have come down a little bit in price but they're all still GPS you got GPS capability well I don't want GPS capability but don't worry we'll get rid of that. and that's one of the things we're watching for one of the things we do with all this equipment guys uh... in fact they read the red green blue and the uh... monoculars as we did frequency scamps why i'm going to do a frequency scan of this fact i'm sure we'll get we always get register when you have something like an l e d projecting you have a bunch of harmonic frequencies that are generated by the circuitry that you expect but you want to pay attention to see whether or not you're getting something else uh... in the in the mix And that allows us to determine how we're going to treat the technology that we're acquiring. All technology is suspect. Period. That's just how it is. I've had this argument for years on handheld radios when people just hit plane, I'll get pissed. It's like saying, I've got the ultimate encryption and they can never break it. We know what I want. I can talk in the open and it's like, well, wait a minute. Okay. Your budget is where? And their budget is where? Well, here's how this works. All signal communications must be expected to be compromised. Period. It's that simple. Electronic technology, we have to consider always. We've talked about this. You know, if you get something you capture, you don't turn it on. In fact, we goze it. We throw it right into, you know, the double ground sack, and it's not sending anything out. This can't be used for a tracker. Power supply is the first thing you pull from the thing if you can identify it. On top of that, everything's bagged and then bagged again. And that bag is grounded. Okay, there's a whole process for acquiring technologies to make sure that it's not being used just to track you back to some place that somebody else wants to drop some ordinance on. Okay? Or for that matter, if you're in the field, remember the friend-fo, if you're familiar with all the technologies being used right now that we're not supposed to know about. all the friend fo identifier systems that are out there don't you think that that thermal would be a specially since the america is the american people are considered the number one enemy we can ship this stuff out of the country so that means that whatever we're getting in the way of thermal is staying inside the united states and they're setting up for tracking which means that they perceive us as a targeted enemy And their logic is that we're not supposed to think this through or know about it. Well, we've already been discussing this, not only for a few years, but for quite some time. And we've been dealing with accordingly. Don Betcher talked about this extensively. And it's something that we, of course, it's a conversation we had till three and four in the morning, more than a few times, why we were dealing with the technology and either testing or working with techs to determine how best to disable, which we pretty well settled on, you know, several years ago, but it's become a standard program. Any of the new stuff coming in that we can find where we have, you know, especially in quantity, it very quickly goes quiet. It goes dark. And that's where it needs to be. So anyway, this is, again, an interesting little bit of technology I was surprised to find today. It's the Exude OD-50 direct light illuminator flashlight with CALS LED lighting system. And I will... say that we're gonna offer it for one hundred and thirty if i do modify it all that you know right away could be one thirty five again i don't know what the shipping is going to be at the one that's one what is it one foot uh... five in all half-inch one well twelve and a half inches one foot and a half inch long that are member i got to go out cal packaging that's economical so it does take up too much space of course All the other items that come into mind, you know what's interesting? What the biggest expense is right now that has gone up with all of the shipping? It's not so much the shipping, it's packing tape. Anybody notice this? Try to find cheap packing tape right now. And take a look what was cheap, what you were getting. I can show you, I kind of have an archaeological dig, because we have a lot of different packing tape. I can show you what was available two years ago because it was two rolls for about three years. Two rolls, big rolls, thick rolls for a dollar at the Dollar Tree. And that was just got skinnier and skinnier as time went by. It was less and less. Then there was one roll. And now they're tiny little rolls. Basically take your thumb and put your middle finger together. That's how big the roll is. Do a circle with your thumb and your middle finger. That's what they've gone to for that the Dollar Tree. Now, I've been blessed because there's been other sources that we've either people have donated or most recently here at one of the big like the big yard sale things that was going on with one of the factories. I bought out their packing tape and the guy said this is some of the best packing tape we've ever had that we've ever used for a job. And even Shower Auto, he goes, are we using this? Do we have any more of these in the back? Because I said, hey, we got a couple cases, I'll buy them. No, we already sold everything out. In fact, I got the last roll. Fortunately, I bought four of them the day before, but in the time between where I bought the first ones, came back to get more, they were gone. But these are regular industrial packing rolls, you know, good size and thick. And it was 50 cents a unit. We gave me the last roll, the very last roll I got for free. That was good. But that's what's funny is that's where the they know it's the ink eraser. It's a blade, okay now obviously It's gonna cost us a chunk of change for the item the device But it's you know again. We got to remember all these little things nip nip at us dollar here dollar there whatever and That's material that has to be spent part of you know what it's kind of like the old overhead issue You know to make sure it gets where it belongs so that that takes from the estimated you know final uh... donation price you know donation uh... recommendation so anyway work on that also uh... and again be where i've got a mention this because i just in talking to the whole seller and i'd can't he just ride with the market guys uh... do not do not do not buy a switch plate do not Now there's two things about it switch plates are convenient fast, you know, whatever but you know what a straight blade is a lot more reliable in general doesn't mean I don't use folding knives they work too but One of the things to remember is switch blades are one of the things that cops carry to use as dump weapons on you because most states have laws that right now they're apparently they've gone at a brain fart about enforcing but that's like the thing with the air fifteen we were talking about here they cyclically what they do is they let the real at the line go out and then they jump the other thing is brass knuckles their three pages of brass knuckles that just came in uh... imported their belt buckles but they're all the different styles don't touch any of those Now there's two reasons again, number one is, remember, there's laws on the books all over the place, they dig them out, and every once in a while they make money off of you by setting everybody up. Well, I didn't know it was illegal, ignorance is no excuse, under the law, comrade! And so then they attack you and they mess you up that way. The other thing is that most of these are not brass knuckles. If they were girthy brass knuckles and you hit somebody, they probably wouldn't distort. But these are cast pot metal Chinese, you know, look like brass knuckles. And when you hit somebody with them, you're probably going to be wearing them. And in fact, not only that, but if you hit them, they'll probably fracture. And you're going to be physically, mechanically, so just say like a knife wearing them too. They're not that well made. So I'm trying to figure out how you're going to get the circulation back to your fingers again. Well you might have heard a crack here and there wasn't that guy's jaw. It was your finger snapping. Because the thing collapsed in on itself because it's rigid but it snaps so it's casting failure and then it digs in and you know it did a good job of popping the finger bone there. So again I cannot stress enough stay away from that stuff. Stay away from the brass knuckles for sure. The twitchy blades, what gets me about that is they're popping up in a lot of places on counters in stores. Now, I'm going to tell you, beware, it's just like the bump stocks, just like the pistol braces, and of course now they're going after triggers. It's the same routine. They let everybody, you know what, it's not illegal to have them, per se, well, actually most places it is, but it's illegal to transport them. You see how they play that game? Well, if you have it at home, we can't stop you. But if you have it anywhere else, it's a crime. And that's the kind of BS they play constantly. So let's not play that game or give me opportunity. You can get some really nice- I had one of my guys show up, Mark. I had one of my guys show up. And I said, hey, you got a knife? He goes, yeah, click. And I'm like, dude, you better lose that thing. That's 10 years in the Fed. Yep, it's one of the things they're waiting to play. I just bought it online. You can't be elite. I said yes, I can. No one look it up. Yeah, they're not doing this accidentally. This is being done intentionally. This is not, I'm fascinated because you see, which is easier? Okay, let's just use some common sense here that would be the logic of you and me, not the idiot. Well, not the wicked in government. Which is easier to stop the 200 people that might, you know, 200 companies that might be importing these things that you have to keep an eye on? Or letting the 200 companies import something that you already know you can't have and then them distributing it by the hundreds of thousands or millions all over the country. Creating the crisis that they know they could stop by telling them, no, you can't import that. But they're not stopping them from importing it, which tells you that that's what they want. You see how that works? So in this case, it's like, you know, well, like you say, might as well carry a gun. If you're going to do that, you might as well carry a gun. The twitchy blade is no different and in fact gives you less options. And I don't care if you think you're, you know, Steve McQueen and, you know, and you're the fancy high speed hand, you know, you can flick the switch blade and you're faster than the guy with the gun drawing. Remember, Magnificent Seven? No, that doesn't work. Okay. Or it doesn't work that way for 99% of you out there. And besides, I want you to try. So, anyway... Besides it's not a federal crime to have a handgun. Or a rifle. Yeah, exactly. It's a state issue. Well, there's more issues, there's more stuff that can happen. And in fact, it's... I did ask one of the people with one of the importers, I said, hey, does anybody approach you on these? And they said, no. And I said, well, okay, how did you guys... Well, the Chinese pushed them. and the government didn't say a word about it they just let him slide right in people because you're all come from china they're not come from these are not matters none of american mate in fact it used to be with which plays like it that germany it was really it was legal to have any kind of knife in the country and switch blades they used to make told you in split switch played the five of almost a machete you hit the you hit the spring in your arm move okay it's like a trunk And those were coveted because you could find a Solingen switchblade in a 12 to 14 inch blade and they were just the quality of the metalwork was just phenomenal. They're floating around but everybody hides them for a reason. Guess what? So again, I'm talking, I'm looking at the latest wave that just came in. while I'm talking here and there's approximately 38 different blades, all of them twitchy blades. And again, the slash spring assisted, which you don't want to touch. Some beautiful knives, by the way, I'll be quite honest, there's some of the stuff they've come up with, all the titanium finishes, and also just some of the colors, like the blue or the green range. They're beautiful, they really are, they're pretty. but they're also pretty not really the thing you want to have in your pocket when somebody goes at you. I mean if you're not going to fight, you're going to fight like a dog and truly go down no matter what, no matter what happens, no matter what, no matter what, then oh well, don't worry about it. Yeah, I was gonna say that it ever goes good with regard to machine guns and silencers and grenades and all that other stuff If you don't care if you know you're gonna take them out the first time they come. Oh, I didn't do it all right Nothing to lose. It's like it's like use it or lose it since you got it You know what they're gonna do you might as well use it fire them up do it all That's just how it works. So anyway, there are some other things that are on the horizon but the exude OD 50 is definitely one of those that we're working on right now and if you're interested let me know just a mean email to what liberty provide dot net if you'd be interested in just a handshake if i see an interest i will have some of these no matter what so uh... i'm just gonna again like i said we're gonna start field testing right away but i know couple people that something similar not the exudes but some of the others and they're pretty happy with them had actually touch base with them here a little bit ago just because of that. Another thing, you know what's fascinating while I'm talking to you people, you know the switchblades I was just talking about? Out of stock, as quickly as the people, and this is serious, as quickly as while I've been doing the program, I've been on for 37 minutes, four of the categories have sold out as far as the items go. Went from 13, 1400 pieces to zero. in 37 minutes. Somebody's got them. Oh, God. Hopefully not my friends. Okay. Hopefully not you guys. That's all I ask. Anyway, also, I would somebody asked me if I could still get any of the drop point safety knives, you know, that have the window breaker and the seat belt cutter. I can, but they're in some odd, you know, schemes. I've got to look to find one that's a little more subdued. but there are some pretty dynamic colored ones. I'll see what I can do because again, it looks like they've got a shipment they're sorting out right now. These are not spring-assisted. These are a regular blade. I love the knives. I especially love the rosewood and the other natural woods that they've had because they've been good quality. But I don't do very many of the knives because that's what I'm looking for, something that in general for you guys will be a working blade. And if it does more than one thing effectively like these safety or EMT knives, then that's a good thing. Those little pocket knives that some of you guys got, you'll notice that's one that I carry because it's not expensive, but it actually holds up pretty well, which is why we put it out there for the part of the gift packages. Go ahead, caller, jump in there, please. I'll show you some of those things. Hey, change the subject real quick, bring this to your attention. So I'm watching the the flight radar for military aircraft in the doomsday plane the 747 is over Dallas and their call sign is order 66 which if you look that up that is from Star Wars in order 66 also known as clone protocol 66 with a top secret order identifying all Jedi as traitors to the galactic republic and therefore subject to summary execution by the Grand Army of Republic and that is the Tuesday flame that's flying. They're currently over dial asset. So over 30,000, roughly 30,000 feet, 27,000 feet. Shelby made a force be with you. Order 66. Order 66. Order 66. Yes, ma'am. Okay. Well, again, and by the way, that's public information as far as being able to watch and track the aircraft over our heads. They may not tell you in some cases what it is. They won't identify it specifically by aircraft, but they must show that they're there because this transponder system is part of what you're supposed to use for anti-collision, anti-intercept activity. In other words, if it is one of the looking glass aircraft, You're not supposed to be flying near it and you've been coached on all the things you're supposed to avoid like Air Force One. But if you don't know it's there, you can't avoid it. So the transponder system is designed so that you are supposed to be paying attention if you're in the air or if you're on the ground and looking at flying. And if you see patterns of activity, usually survey in advance, you know the air corridors you're going to use for your flight out when you're doing your flight log and you're doing your, you're filing your, oh, come on. Preflight report, when you register it with the airport, well, you're supposed to know what's out there ahead of you when the time comes and be keeping track of it. And today you get on-time delivery, whereas before you had to kind of check the air schedules and whatever. Today you actually have direct on-time delivery with visual three-dimensional, well, correction, four-dimensional visual representation. And then because you do have time, because the target's moving. So you do have every aspect of what's needed to effectively avoid a particular obstacle or a threat, which is a big deal. And in fact, the technology is so user-friendly right now, there isn't any reason not to have it in the aircraft. A cheap little laptop or a tablet will do everything you need to do. It doesn't weigh very much, but does all the work that's necessary for you to be able to have the data stream on hand, which is kind of nice. So appreciate that. Thank you, Shelby. And again, all of 66. and uh... let's see okay the last but not all darned they already sold out something she walked you know click now i want one of those and it's like that it's like oh i won't get one of those cuz they somebody just got a ball you'll basterd anyway uh... that happens a lot with specially within this day and age we do not have uh... i actually have had several requests on this so i will bring this forward of the thermal we've pretty well committed I have not seen, I mean, I haven't seen a reliable volume source for night vision for green screen in conventional that we can rely upon regularly. I mean, it's out there, there is some available, but the biggest problem is consistency in inventory, but that's true of everything, as I said, in the two-hour block. America's into a third, you know, a third world status right now. However, uh... there is uh... at optics planted a couple of good solutions and again i think we're not carrying that i did well will point you like we do with everything else toward the useful useful location but if you go to optics planet dot com the one good thing is that they have completed upgrading the site as far as you know deletions or that's presently you know out of stock again in the last year or two They do have quantity slash bundle deals and if you are looking at a situation where you want to purchase more than two or three maybe, your best bet, you don't place the order automatically over the internet. Do not do that. Do not do that. Call into OpticsPlanet and tell them, hey, I'm interested in the quantity. If you've got the ability to throw away down 10 pieces and you've got a number of people there, we've got, this is happening all the time, it's like the thermal, like I just said, we have one group that just dropped down, what was it, $18,000 and bought the thermal that they wanted. They got a deal on it because they had the $18,000 to throw on it. And they got, you know decent well they got what they needed is what it comes down to now i'm not talking about spending that much money but i would point out that uh... if you are looking at uh... you know tried out for the unit and you need a block or a group of digital or whatever real green screen jet one two or three Call OpticsPlanet and tell them, hey, I'd like to do a quantity buy. You will get a very different price from what you see listed. I've already done this more than a few times and I've got a number of different ways I work as a purchasing agent for support in this area, okay? I don't just use my name. I've been established in places for a very long time in a lot of different ways. So I can spread the database, so to speak, and chill it out. But as it is, it is possible for you to do this and be very satisfied, I think, with your final price. And that's really what counts is how many more people can you get out fit. In fact, you may find you were thinking about 10 when you needed 15 pieces or maybe more. Guess what? That price is so significant a drop that you probably can order the other two. You can own the other two or three for what you would pay for the 10 if you just went through the internet. So that's how significant the savings can be. And again, go over to www.opticsplanet.com. And I'm doing that right now myself just real quick because I wanted to check something. They have a digital rifle site that is at about 284 over the counter through the internet. Let's see if they still have it in stock right now. I checked on it Monday for another group and they did have it in stock. Let's see, Optics Night Vision rifle scopes. There we go. Let's see if I'll get there fast. And this is over at OpticsPlanet.com. Let's see if they sold out. They might have. And a Gen 1 is what we're looking for. Do to save some time if you look off to the side there. Magnification I'm not concerned with. Of course dollar amount, yes, but deals. Well, deals. There's always deals. And as it is, here we go. Okay. No, we're not going to spend 11,000. Although I like the equipment. No, not for one scope. I'd rather have... ten people outfitted with and optic that one person with an eleven thousand dollar piece of night vision and there's a reason because all those ten people ganging up on one is going to mess up their day and by the way we're not going to stand there and be pop-up targets for somebody else to shoot out well look like they may have sold out for the moment and they are good about about taking the unit awful the page but that's not what I'm looking for. Well the closest thing they have right now, Nightstar 2x50mm Gen 1 tactical night vision riflescope black and that's unfortunately up around $459. Those have gone up in price because we did buy those for a significantly lesser amount only about what, six months ago. However, they do have other units and will probably put it back in stock as quick as they can, but that's one of the things that I've been talking about is consistency in inventory because the pulse is coming in fairly small numbers just like everything else. As the stuff is replaced, it is not being replaced in equal number. They're not able to keep up with production and it's becoming a significant issue in all categories. Yes, somebody just pointed out, yeah, there's SiteMark, that's another one that's competitive with the other model, but the Nightstar very much is like the ATN system that Dom was making available for years. A lot of you probably wish now you'd taken advantage of Dom's night vision. Prices now everybody's I've had several people like you'd see what the price of the ATN units are. Yeah Well, that's because Don was making a deal because Don knew ATN before any of you knew what ATN was Don I think I paid about four and a quarter for mine mark. Yeah Yeah, as a matter of fact Well, I'm the second gen Well, that's a good price for a second right now. You can't touch a second gen for well for Don that was I think if you got it from Don Yes, I did. Yeah, you're talking twice, a little under twice that for a second gen. If they even have them on the shelf, which is one of the things that I've noticed, yeah, about $800. $800. I'm glad I got mine then. You got yours for the rape price, and it still runs just fine. He chose wisely. Yeah, he chose wisely. The other one didn't. uh... again this was a sidebar but we have a lot of questions about night vision sportsman's guide offers night vision uh... most everybody that the big chain does have some night vision in stock now what they have you're going to have to go through and shop to see what's available at the cherry pick uh... one of the other things of that is uh... a consideration that there is digital ok digital is out there in fact One of the things that they're bitching about right now with the military in the military upper crust circles that's been bleeding out in different reports and stuff is that what we don't own the night like we did before. Well, that's because, yeah, everybody's figured out one way or another to make night vision. And what's really interesting is, like I said, if you have a whole legion of people and they all have Gen 1 digital, they're still ahead above the average bear. and 100% of everybody they've got, not just their infantry, but the cooks, the bakers, the truck drivers, and everybody. Which means they can all pick up their weapon and turn on you, and everybody can start putting bullets on you, and bullets don't, you know, it doesn't take long before something catches up. Okay, it's that simple and again remember use it or lose it you might as well fight because they're planning it You know it's like they're bragging up on the US government side how they're gonna kill off American gun owners and how they're gonna do this and they know they're always puffing up themselves, okay? how they're gonna kill off the American people basically and What's fascinating about this is a where do you think you're gonna live if you want if you thought you could win? But you won't so where you're gonna live when you lose Because you think we're letting you back into our society? Oh, you. Guess what? We already figured out what's going to happen there. So, again, the everybody out there's got something available, but there's another, the other half of this is remember, you need to constantly be ready to flood the environment with white light. Night operations light up the sky, as they say. You might as well. And in fact, if you close, here's what happens. All of the optics they're wearing become encumberances rather than a helpful tool. And whoever, when you change the environment, then you change the usefulness of whatever tool was being applied. So just something to think about there. It's like, that's why I love LED yard lights. LED yard lights, you gotta kill each one to shut them off. And even there, I have overlapping conventional incandescent battery-powered lighting that's designed so I can hit a switch. And if the LED went out because of whatever, I mean, if it was something, whatever tool is in their toolbox, immediately the conventional comes on and it's deployed much in the same way as the LED is, you know, the LED yard lights. I'm not talking about spotlights, I'm just talking about the cheapy dollar a piece of light to it because every little bit of LED lighting like that, with even Gen 1, guys, that's like a laser beam, that's like a flare out there in the middle of nowhere. In fact, with Generation Zero IR with white light out there like that, especially since it's not going to directly affect your equipment because usually it's ground lighting, it creates this white phase area that allows you either to see shadow or to see the actual object. And that's with old IR. Now with anything else, starlight, any kind of illumination like that, especially where it's not directly affecting you, is going to change how you can see into the shadows. Remember what Don was talking about with regard to night vision and how its perception works? Well, what you do when you have lower tech is you improve your conditions by upgrading the area of operation. you can either have that command activated where you hit a switch and you turn everything on or you can just illuminate the area in general it's good for you know public relations well it's a brighter happier world at night and uh... also in the process improves security both with or without enhancement just that simple and again for pennies uh... dollars you know dollar one dollar yard like although i just got a whole pile of those of the earth sale for five dollars that were the $28 a piece. I know I just priced them. I just looked at them casually, but the same solar light, I just got a glass fixture, you know, metal bodies, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They were like $28 a piece. I just got a whole pile of them for $5 in an estate sale. And by tomorrow night, they will be deployed. And every time I find more, that means I could stack more up out to the mile mark. That's one mile. How do you know? Because that's where that is. That's one mile, and the one before it's half a mile. And then all the rest are like, you know, eight of a mile, quarter of a mile, depending on each one, has a different marker station. And that allows me to range my targets at night. Right? If I have an LED at a certain point, and I know it's at equidistance, and I actually have it paced out, I have it mapped out, either mentally or with a fire control map, I don't have to guess when I see an object near there what the distance is and how I need to operate my equipment in order to zero on the target. Like aiming stakes in the old days. Remember it was Zulu? Oh, well, we've got a jet out there. We're going to mark off every 100 yards before the Zulus come unstabished with the penga. Yeah, well, it's the same idea. Only it's LED lighting. And that LED lighting means that I don't guess, even if I don't use night vision, if I use live fire and just use conventional, you know, conventional imaging, I already know that I can spray and pray into an area with reconnaissance by fire or with suppression fire. And I know that I'm engaging at proper distance and I'm not guesstimating. Not to the degree I would be if I didn't have a bench marker to work with. So that's one of the things taken. Hey dad. Go ahead Ed. This was just sent to me. What is it? Which state is IL? Because I'm drawing a blank right now. Illinois State Police website hacked. A gun owner database leaked. Plus even ATF agent and I don't have the rest of the story yet. I'm pulling it up right now. Even ATF agents? So the data they hacked the... They sent me a YouTube video for it. I'll pull it up and see. Let's see. Probably easier if I put this into Discord. Okay, what they probably hacked, you've got the Illinois has the FOIA cards. And so there's an entire database where all of the owners of those cards is available. And so somebody now has access to that so that they can hand it off to the anti-gunners or whoever else they want to, comes down to. Again, that's not a surprise again registration is always the preamble to some form of confiscation or attack and that's exactly what they've provided So again assume the worst you won't be disappointed. Okay. I've got a video link that was sent to me for this. I have not reviewed it so Discretion advised, you know, very good. What's the what's the name title for the video link? It's from ar15.com, the YouTube channel, Illinois State Police website, hacked, gun owner, database leak, plus even ATF, and it trails off there. So can't read the whole title scroll, but I'm playing it now, Dad. and thanks for watching another episode of ARFCOM News. Today, I want to tell you about the most legendary party of all time, even more reasons to hate David Chipmunk, and how hackers took down the Illinois State Police website, plus lots more.

Faye has lost all of your respect. I don't blame you. Our position is that you should not support them until... Let's get this party started with the most important event of your entire lifetime! I didn't oversell that, did I? You probably know the NRA annual meeting is coming up in September and you probably don't care because the NRA has lost all of your respect. I don't blame you. Our position is that you should not support them until they kick out every scummy scumbag who has led the organization down the path to the dark side. But we do gun news, and that means we'll be covering the event. If you have to be there too, why not hang out with us? We're going to fill an after party on the 4th of September from 7pm to 10pm at Chapman and Kirby right next to the George Brown Event Center where N-RAM is being held. Even if you are not attending N-RAM, you should still stop by and party with us because we'll have free food, drinks, and hourly giveaways for rad stuff like the RM180 Abundance and PRIMARY ARNOLD! The whole thing is sponsored by Magpul Primary Arms, Dango Defense, and Brownells. So, even if you can't make it, maybe you should buy something from them just for being cool like that. Have you guys heard about this David Chipman character? He's like the worst. I know you've probably heard about all you can take about him, but now even former colleagues are throwing shade in an open letter from seven former AFT agents ruthlessly detailing why Chipman is a terrible choice for director and just an awful human being. They describe him as antisocial and bullheaded and they worry that his lack of leadership experience would make him, and I quote, the least qualified individual to lead the agency in its history. Absolutely savage. See, maybe even AFT agents can learn to be good in the end through the power of friendship. But seriously folks this David Shippman cat is worse than a paper cut under your finger now Did you know he went on Chinese state controlled television to make propaganda for them to distract from a Chinese? Minecraft of 23 students If you think that's downright un-American, I agree. If you think it might even be criminal, you could be onto something because he did not disclose that relationship to the Department of Justice. even though China Global Television is literally required by the Foreign Agents Registration Act to register with DOJ as a foreign agent. So yeah, I've been beating this drum a lot lately and I'm going to keep it up. Even though it looks like Chipman's chances of getting confirmed are fading faster than Dwayne Johnson would sign up for a movie set in the jungle, there's no reason to take our eye off the ball. Keep calling your politiquators to tell them to oppose Chitman's confirmation. Phone number and stuff like that down there in the doobly-doo. Illinois Governor J.B. Prexer signed a universal background check bill requiring private gun transfers to go through a federally licensed firearms dealer even though it's illegal for Illinois residents to possess a gun or even a single round of ammunition unless they have a valid firearms owner's ID card which requires a background check and it's illegal to transfer a gun to someone without checking for their FOID. But the new law will make it extra super-duper moral-legal or something. And of course, if people trust anyone to keep them safe, it's the government. After all, the only objection anyone could have to universal background check laws is that it is impossible to enforce these laws without a registry of all legal gun owners. Thankfully, Illinois already maintains a registry of all legal gun owners in the form of the FOID in a really extra awesome secure database completely invulnerable to... and it's been hacked. Yeah, the Illinois State Police website was compromised and attackers gained access to the personal information of 2,067 FOID card holders. To be fair, It sounds like the attackers didn't start from scratch and hack directly into the Illinois State Police website. They used personal information from some other briefs to sort of fill in the blanks on the autofill arms and get additional details from the Illinois State Police website. Regardless, since the attack, the website has not been accepting applications for new FOID cards, meaning residents who don't already have an FOID are being denied their right to bear arms altogether. Well friends, that's all I have for you today, but before I go, I just... Okay, that's pretty much the end of the relevant information. Sorry about that, guys. I did not review that before. Somebody just sent it to me and thought it was pertinent information. Well, again, it's a percentage of. Two thousand some odd means a county or whatever township or whatever city, wherever that FOIA information was, however it was stored, whether it was original... uh... older database or maybe something was new processing which is why they were able to access limited number however it still comes down to that once you have the database then they can steal it which is why i remember I like how they downplayed the fact that they got personal information to get into the account that it wasn't really hacking. Guys, a majority of hackers, they try to get your personal information with that scam information. That way they can guess your password or use recovery systems. So yeah, it was hacked. Don't downplay that. If they physically hacked it in the real world, it's still hacking. Exactly. Well, we are at the top for everybody out there, guys. In fact, a little past, but that's okay. We had to play catch-up, and it was worth at least looking to see what was available. If you're in Illinois, might want to do a little more follow-up on that just to see how far that actually went and how much they try to cover up, because remember, state police, police operations, whenever possible. First of all, they'll deny it happened, and then whenever they do, they play it down. And remember, they always word twist, so it could be bigger and a lot worse than the consequences. Be careful, pay attention and I appreciate you because they're bugging out the bug spray with you, right? Just because it's cooler doesn't mean the mosquitoes aren't looking for you. Anyway, thank you all for your input. God bless everybody. We will see you on Monday with the Liberty Tree Radio and the M-Cone. Thank you all.
