were torn and dirty as he stood in my bed. He took off his three cornered hat. Speaking low to me, he said, we fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the life 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 is spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken sin, 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 and dead. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God-given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now, as tyrants trampled, each God-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? You said, gentlemen, this is the... First hour of the afternoon intelligence report time our quirky One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines and occupied territories West Northeast North and Northwest You're listening to us www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we are on satellite. We'll see high-end all our merchant marine operators out there. It is a beautiful, beautiful Michigan day, Michigan summer day out there. For everybody on the Great Lakes though, we've got some weather up and down the lakes, depending on where you are. So if you're one of our merchant marine operators on one of the Great Lakes freighters, probably having a fun time right now in the U.P. Anyway, we're also in a myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside these United States. It is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 7th of June. It is the 15th year of open obvious and in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2023 Old Earth calendar 2023 battle for the Republic the dance of swords let the dance continue and we'll make that happen First of all real quick Tucker Carlson is back up on Twitter. I should say is back up on the air with a Twitter program apparently 10 minutes worth of his best way to describe it to where he's going with broadcasting and should be successful. It's been tens of millions of flybys and also tens of millions of thumbs up so and viewers so I'd say he's doing pretty good there. Congratulations. Go ahead, Galt, we got you. I just wanted to mention that Tucker is with Kelly. I wanted to mention him. It was really cool at the end how he mentioned that he wanted to be like the shortwave radio under the blanket. That really caught my attention. I like that a lot. Well, if you know where to a degree some of his working knowledge comes from because guys, again, shortwave, victory broadcasting and the shortwave venue is where the work was really done that was most critical in the window of activity of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. And shortwave should be important right now too because this system is not going to hold up the way it is. There's nothing they can really do to save it. What we're going to have to do is fix with what we have in the toolbox and shortwave is one of the things you need to cover. Thank you for bringing it up by the way because you need to pick up an AM FM shortwave radio. Go to resale shops, go look to see what's out there. You want full bandwidth shortwave receivers. What I'm talking about is, remember, we got to warn everybody on this. Pay attention and do a little read up to make sure that with your shortwave, if you're going to buy a shortwave receiver, it's like an AM, FM, and then there's shortwave, and also usually the weather channel and the other stuff's on there, weather channel options. It will tell you whether or not it carries a full spectrum. Sometimes the short waves are calibrated to only pick up foreign but not American broadcasting because theoretically the American short wave broadcasting is for the rest of the world but you're not supposed to allow us to hear what they're saying to the rest of the world. You probably didn't know that guys. And so of course it's purely a matter of well how good are you at making sure that signal covers more. And there's all kinds of tricks with communications that you can use to make the signal print blossom on the planet quite uniquely. So yeah, it's kind of interesting. Remember, Europe found out about what was going on, just as was said, with shortwave under the blanket, where everybody else thought that America was one thing and in reality we were another. Now it's reversed. Russia is pretty good shape. America's in the toilet. We still have all kinds of great stuff to take advantage of. We are going to, but in the process, we're going to build. We're not going to let the enemy take us back into the Soviet Stone Age. That isn't going to happen. They want to. Oh, they really want to. It's the occultic, demonic, pedo-queer agenda. So again for everybody out there Tucker Carlson on Twitter might want to check it out because now it's in your eternal rerun heavens so you can go over and tag it and then watch it and I recommend everybody go over give it a thumbs up seriously You wrote if you want your enemies head to explode. I don't care who they are use every tool in the toolbox That's one of the tools in the toolbox. So let's take advantage of it have some fun and you know basically then watch the reactions like the fear Another thing here on that note is, again, there's also what is a woman? Now, if you ever told anybody even 20, 30 years ago that you would be seeing that kind of question having to be asked in America, because they told you, oh, we'd never let that happen. They, I always love it, the they would never let that happen. Well, who's this they? Because obviously a whole bunch of pedo-queer, fruit loop demon, the satanic worshipers are Obviously the one's pushing the agenda and yes, they did it. So we have a bunch of characters who are so insane and who are so far around the corner they can't see the last three, you know, three corners they already passed. Crazy Town to Crazy Town to Crazy Town to Crazy Town that we now can't define a woman. But remember when you can't define a woman you're also saying you can't really define a man. Well, it works both ways. You know, in other words, there's AB, there's male-female, AB, yin-yang, AB, AB, AB, 01, 01, 01. Does the computer go 01, oh, by the way, three? How does that logic system work? 01, 01. How is it that that is so dominant, you know, the yin-yang thing, if you want to look at it from the Asian perspective, throughout all of existence? And how far back into the depths of time does that go with regard to progressive, genetic makeup and construction? AB, AB, AB, 12, 12, 01, 01, yin yang, male, female. Think about that. So that's another one you wanna check out because it's on Twitter also. Go ahead, call your gym in there. Well, and there again, that's why it's time for most of them to be turned off. It's one of those things where, how are you going to get rid of this? You've got to get rid of the people pushing it. Just that simple. They have to be gone. There isn't anything else going to fix this. We're at the crossroad on this one. just like all the rest of these situations. Well, they want to confiscate, you know, blah, blah, blah. You know, they're at the crossroads. We're not going to let that happen. And by the way, we're going to find more replacements when we start getting rid of the secret police. I know what they're going to do. They've got to call on the poof de queers. They've got to call on the street gangs. We already talked about this for 30 years. It's no accident. Except, you know, for the idea that, well, what they're going to turn to are the criminal elements who are willing to move into the positions of force so they can be used as the knuckle-draggers against the American people to push the demonic, pedo-queer agenda. It's not most of the imports, but most all of the imports walking in are subservient. That's why they wanted the illegals here, because they are subservient. And there's still enough Americans who are not subservient that they have to try, as has always been the case since 1775, to bring in foreigners to attack Americans to try and make us lick their boot. We are going to have to kill them. We are going to have to destroy them. We are going to have to get rid of them. There is no apology for that. There was no apology on April 19th, 1775. Wasn't even a thought of any apology on April 1917, 1775. It's this is it. We are done. Let's go to town. And that's where Americans had better be now with what we see before us. Apologize. If they have their way, they're going to murder you. So I'll tell you what, tag, they're it. Because of that, they've sealed their fate. We just have to, we have to step up. Now, you know what? We can't get any younger, so we have to step up sooner. The obvious agenda is being pushed for this year. The Satan card has been played. That is the big one, guys. The Satan card out in the public venue combined with the pedo-queer demonstrate the full nature of the wickedness and the evil that has to be scoured from our country. It must be scoured from the land. Things that need to be done. Well, I'm gonna shift a little bit here real quick again What is the woman is also officially now being posted over on? Twitter so if you haven't seen it everybody should go watch it only because you watch the stupidity of numbnuts idiots incompetence and fools who can't answer a straight question because all of a sudden a B has become you know zero one slash yin yang has become very difficult to interpret or understand only because there's it's a lame-ass fools generated by the public fool system and that they're incapable. You know, they do the old Norman coordinate. That's what happens with communists. We've always joked about it. The old Star Trek episode where you had Norman. Remember there was Norman? You know, the I-Mud. Okay. Remember you had Mud who went on a planet where there was an android and he could make all the androids they wanted and lo and behold you had Norman. Well, all the other mimeograph slash reproduced variance on the droid models whenever something was a question they couldn't answer. They all went into head tilt and Norman coordinate. Isn't that exactly what you see with these fools now? It used to be all these things were jokes like watching Monty Python. All these things were jokes except that we let the joke slash wicked sick people get into the education system and step by step because of big government money can that's what financed it we got the fruit loop nutcase sick as a you know sick as a dog and just totally stupid dumb as a stinking box of rocks product that What is a woman good? Yeah, normally coordinate normally coordinate dad I got word name I've got another one for you because we've been watching this down here. It's not affecting us, but it's affecting you guys up there and really affecting the East Coast. All that smoke from the fires in Canada that I from a look at the map, they had to be set. You know that there's just so many of them that spreads a lie. It looks like it. It started in so many places, but still New York complaining about the smoke and there's nothing you can do about it. So when the. Weather is so bad when the smoke when your body is so bad go inside because there's absolutely nothing you can do about it There's no device that was made that we forced down your throat for a year and a half that you could possibly wear To make the air quality better for you to go outside and work and stuff with no you just have to stay inside lock yourself indoors and totally forget that now that we you could use a mask and it's the appropriate time to use a mask to filter out large, particularly like smoke that you shouldn't do that. Stay inside. The mask thing doesn't exist anymore when it's something that it would actually work for. I mean, just look at what's going on. I don't know if you're still there. I lost you. I'm here, I'm just muted so you wouldn't hear any background noise. Real quick on that note, one of the reasons we're having this problem is because the same pukes and failures that you have on the West Coast that created all the firefighting problems that we have because of lack of proper response are the same puke globalist filth that they still get the same amount of money for all the firefighting technology that they had But they did not maintain and so they have this massive management bureaucracy of do-nothing queers of three dollar pedos That make up these layers upon layers of committee of monkeys in suits who aren't going anywhere near the fire They're absorbing all of the money as they have stolen it out the back door because with each layer of bureaucracy comes more bureaucratic theft and In the past, these fires, well actually there was a window of time that we had from about the 1950s through to the 80s. But unfortunately by the time we get to the late 80s and to the early 90s, the communists and the anti-American New West group, they called it the New West group. Well the New West group were all a bunch of Fruit Loop turds. who basically just found another money sack falling out of the sky from the government to suck on another kit that they could milk out without performing any service by altering the standards. And so they don't fight the fires. They don't stop the fires from starting by responding locally the way that they should. And in fact, because of hyper centralized upper command management sycophants who are all eco freaks. If it's going to burn down a community or destroy a human capacity, then let it burn. And as you said, these look to be most likely with the fact that you have so many of these fires at once, pay, maybe the communist Chinese are doing their job. Maybe the infiltrators are doing their job because again, There was method to the madness. We used to do movies about, no I'm not talking about the new ones, like about being a ghost or crap like that. There used to be epic movies that actually also showed you how the firefighting service worked, but how it developed. And there was all kinds of great stuff. The overlap is talking about the air brigades, the air fire brigades. But that system has all been puked on and was not maintained the way it originally was because, well, we don't have fires like we used to. Well, we don't have fires because we had response units literally peppered like a checkerboard across the whole of each state. So any time a fire started, the fire truck went out, so to speak. A plane would go out and immediately respond and everybody would zero in on the starter fire and it wouldn't spread. Well all these faggots and queers and petals and globalist you know Satanists got in there Total incompetence they had no qualifications except that they were petals they were queers minorities of whatever kind they could create and The incompetent then of course was waiting for the next year down to do something But correct progressively this next year down was all the same kind of sycophants hired because they were petals queers Satanists minorities of whatever kind that were perverts and now you have what you have. Just that simple. And everybody just throws their hands up in the air, take the money and of course the lack of management or again, incompetence is rewarded. Yes, men are rewarded. People who know what they're doing are attacked. So taking care of your own, yes. Remember Joe McNeil guys fighting the fire up on the ridge. all kinds of firefighting technology, all of it completely failing. Listening to the idiot sticks, they went out, ignored them, grabbed a bulldozer, a backhoe, and cut their own firebreaks, turned out all the wells at all the cabins up on the ridge. And while the firefighting units completely failed everybody else, there was this green spot on top of the ridge. That was where Joe and the families up there live. They didn't wait for the service because it didn't exist. They were standing there holding their shovels, remember? This was live. It was just happening while Joe was literally, they remember covering it on the air. They were doing this while they were covering it while it was happening. And of course the state was, you can't do that. You can't make those firebrains. It was like they went out, they chopped up the soil accordingly to create a fire break so the stuff couldn't jump. They then also set up hoses and hosed down and washed down the areas so that they would again be, you know, not tinder. And lo and behold, that area was their houses and the old church and the old township hall and everything on top of the mountain there survived because of motivated, independent individuals who were thinking human beings. not the socialist lemming swine and yahooty trash that made up the state and fed run operation that completely failed. What's he started doing nowadays, Mark? Well, he's of course moved. He moved into the Arkansas area and he's been, he started up a new business. And I think he's doing a little bit of personal broadcast radio. Right now again, if you look up Joe McNeil on the internet might be able to find us if you do a search for him I've heard but I haven't had a chance to check that he's you know, gotten into a little bit of radio work again independent But still alive as far as I know now again Joe's getting that we're all getting up there in years We're all getting older, but as far as I know he's okay I don't know how his wife is remember she had quite a few problems. She told she Nancy says she's doing good. Oh and what? Oh, and three new, oh no, this time I didn't know about three new grand babies. Grandpa, something, well I'm on the air here. So, Joe McNeil has three new grandchildren. All right. So, for everybody out there, Grandma's doing well, in other words, Joe's wife is doing okay. Joe's doing okay. And apparently the kids are doing okay, because he's got grandkids. So, there you go. Works out just fine. But I will find out more. Go ahead. Absolutely. You know what, we should have Joe up and have him say hi to everybody anyway. Good ideas. So in fact, even as you brought that up and thank you for reminding me, I'm writing down Joe McNeil's name to make sure we do a follow-up. So let's see what we can do there. And again, it's kind of funny because remember he wasn't a good location. That's been a roller coaster. Idaho is kind of interesting. I know we got listeners that have moved out to Idaho that are listening right now, medical personnel, etc. But some people moved from Idaho to Arkansas, Missouri, and it's kind of the shift back and forth. Now, part of that was an opportunity that you couldn't really pass up, if you guys aren't familiar. So one of the listeners and some of the other people involved, presented an excellent situation that he took advantage of, which is good. So another thing here real quick on that note, we talked about firefighting, and of course it's weapons Wednesday, but it would not hurt to actually watch for firefighting equipment that's available. I've wanted to pick up an engine, preferably a pumper, and I've seen several. Of course, I always loved the American La France pumper, you know, 500. The Pumper 500 is a classical engine from the 60s, well late 50s, but 60s, the model was improved and modified, but still basically the same older style engine design. Nothing's really much changed except for how they bend the sheet metal on a Pumper though, on a regular response Pumper. But there's a lot of fire equipment out there and it's pretty handy. And considering we're talking about local independence, I highly recommend if you guys are listening and you have a community area like we do several here, even though you may not maintain a quote unquote an official fire department, a fire equipment is so readily available. You can go to the iron planet, they're dumping stuff from the DOD all the time and there's some pretty nice equipment coming out of there. Now a lot of those are crash trucks. with a head-pumper, an overhead cannon pump, but that really is not a bad thing. Okay, in fact, it would be very useful for certain work. Okay, so fire apparatus would be a good idea and all the accoutrements go along with it. And by the way, usually in all of your passing, I run into it all the time, bunker suits, I've got... 30 Scott air packs brand new in the carrier the only thing I don't have is I don't have enough tanks for those units I got enough to barely outfit everyone once and what I want to find for that is Then these are brand new in the box unissued Scott air packs, but I'd like to find Also a pump unit an independent unit fairly new but it doesn't make any difference for tank filling which is something that I don't have yet either. I mean we can do it from other methods. There's all kinds of cross-techniques, but it would be nice to have one that is officially rated. So that's another thing I'm always keeping an eye out for. You never know what you're going to run into when you go to auctions. Seriously, the last auction I went to, I bought stuff I didn't expect to buy. In fact, I miscalculated and should have bought a really big truck. But I didn't, so I had to really, really pack and there was some stuff that I probably should have been on, but hey, you know, don't have quite that much room. But equipment like that, yeah, doing fire apparatus and doing fire support equipment. Utility pumpers would be best. I would remind you again, ambulances, ambulances, ambulances. Not as work trucks. I know a lot of people that's what they're doing with them and they are perfect for that by the way I don't guys do finish work or do plumbing That have taken an ambulance. You just leave it the way it is and everything goes on the shelves It's perfect make a workbench inside if you want out of one of the the exam side tables and You got all the space you need for keeping everything inside that needs to be on location if you want to do mobile But we're talking about with ambulances making field, forward field medical positions slash emergency surgery mobile forward area aid stations. That's really what I believe that the ambulance is much better suited for. If we start looking at mass casualties or combat casualties, The important thing is the closest to the area of activity where we can immediately, immediate life-saving trauma response is most critical. Transport can be done with immediate stabilization of the casualty to then move to the rear next tier, which is basically like a forward mass unit. And those we already have. Those we have built up over a period of time. The biggest thing is deeper supply, which we're always looking to do. So anyway, fire equipment, Joe McGill, all this from Joe McGill, yeah, because the stuff that we know would have been very, very, very useful and is. And again, down the road here, the regime, the mechanism, the highly over government-tit-sucking financed from the federal end operations, when they cut the money off, only the select queer and pedo and Satanist is gonna get the money. The rest of you are all screwed. It is what they have planned. Writing is on the wall. The finger has already written the words. What we need to do is pay attention and do the right thing and be ready because we really don't need them. So when they come down the road and demand that they be the overlord, we shoot their hairy ass and get rid of them and get rid of every last one of them. can deal with the problems at hand that we have to deal with. Another thing is tactical dispersion, like with the fire equipment. You know, it's funny, Wisconsin is where a lot of stuff is built, along with western Minnesota. And so up there, there's a lot of people that collect fire equipment. There's tons of auxiliary equipment all over the place simply because they are collectors. And strangely enough, even if it was a 60 or 70 year old machine, guys, as long as the pumps are maintained, there's nothing obsolete about a fire truck. There's no fire truck that's obsolete. Brush trucks, if you look at like, well, what about those old Model Q type fire trucks? Well, what's the difference between that and a brush truck? You ever seen a brush truck in your fire department? Usually it's an old military cuck-fee or an M880. Nowadays they're running out of those, so now they're just building them on a regular like Chevy's or Dodge's or Ford's with a one ton body, one ton frame. And what do they do? Well, they got a single pump in the back, usually one line, maybe two roller lines. handful of fire extinguishers, a whole bunch of ladder and apparatus as far as axes, shovels, and beater brushes and stuff for putting out fires, brush truck. So what's the difference in that? The older pieces of equipment. All apparatus would be put into service and should be pressed into service when the time comes. You're going to have to. You're not going to have enough. You just won't have enough. And locally, all these little dots on the map out there, if somebody's smart, if you're organized as militia, guess what? You can also be organized as a volunteer fire department. And don't worry about this certification crap. Okay, that's all part of the government control centralized nonsense from the Fed end down. Instead, get the equipment, pile it up, and if somebody's in trouble, I don't think they're gonna ask when nobody else is responding if you help. The important thing is to truly understand how to do the job. And that's not that hard. Everything is readily available off the shelf for you to qualify and be able to do it. All the basic knowledge. So again, there's no reason for you not to build up a library and also work it a little bit across training. Wouldn't hurt. And it's part of the building your local society back up to where it needs to be. And doing it from the people end, well, down, not up. because we're supposed to be on the top of that pyramid. Which means we have to step up to the plate. Which means we need to exclude the turds and the excrement that we know would be dragging us down. Oh, let's see. Oh, we're at the bottom. We're going to pass the bottom. We have to have our bottom of the hour a little late, but bottom of the hour. Right. Standard break. This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My rifle is my best. It is my life. And before he shoots me. Before God! You may ride a goodly speed, you may know a stern a master. You forward march for speed, but you'll learn the back much faster when you meet our mountain boys. And the leader just starts glad you make what little noise and always hit the mark. Oh the rifle, oh the rifle, in our hands we'll prove no rifle. No graves at home, back across the briny water And yet he must come, as well as to the slaughter But if we the job must do, then the sooner it is begun If the flinging and trigger hold the but through, the quicker it will be done Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove no to rifle Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove no to rifle weapons Wednesday, your mind is your first best weapon. Physically protect it by knowing how to effectively work as a militia man, a minuteman. The ability to fight and defend both yourself, your family, your fellow Americans, because of your mutual liberty interest. Our rifleman first, the ability to project coercive force as needed to defend against an aggressor and to put them down when they come up. We put them with interesting things here real quick. A question I had was in one of the emails that I should have answered. Well, we explain why we waited till now. Well, a question, what do I think about revolvers? And would I use one? Oh, always. In fact, to be quite honest, everybody always does these things with you as picture. Which would you use? A Glock or a Smith? Well, actually, let's see, Glocks don't make revolvers. This used to make a revolver. I don't know if they do anymore. H.K., I wouldn't buy one of theirs. I mean, I'm sorry, but I'll explain that in a second. And Smith and Watson, well, of course, because they got tons of revolvers. Not when they were talking about the automatics. Sure, I know how to use every weapon that we're talking about there. But for most of what you're doing, not everything, but for most, I mean, if you want more firepower because you're up against a lot of other targets, training will improve your revolver performance. Just because you've got a semi automatic pistol does not mean that you are going to hit more. Okay? In fact, this has already been proven with tops is that they're expending five times as much ammunition to make a hit as they did when they had a revolver. Because when they had a revolver, they had to kind of stay focused, screw that gun on the target and hit. However, the big thing about revolvers, why I like them, is control of the brass. The only thing you're leaving in a firefight if you were in a unique situation is a bullet. No brass, nothing with your, no fingerprint issues, nothing else around, and the revolver can be disappeared or whatever down the road. But also brass recovery in a crisis situation, especially, let's say we get the big thing they keep pushing nonstop, just had this dam destroyed over in Ukraine slash Russia. And they keep pressing to try and get a big war going, which if the ass hat Jewish mob, because the Jewish mob wants to get more Christians killed. The Jewish mob figures that if they can get us into a World War III, they can kill off most all of the patriotic Americans that are left. And the Jewish communist agenda would be shoved down everybody's throat here in America because they would demand that the whole of the militarist police state would be kicked in with the Jewish, symbolic, queer, pedo, mob, in charge, pushing their communism. Everybody here would be in police state mode. They could shovel you over there as an orc slave into the battle to get killed off. And of course, even if you survived and saw all the terrible things that the wicked evil bastards did, the propaganda machine would tell the people here, don't listen to your brother, cousin, uncle about what wicked things the Jewish communist commissars did to your troops. or what the Jewish communist commissars did as wicked evil people to the peoples in Europe, etc., because after all, they'd be told they would lie. Okay? So they desperately are going to try for a World War III scenario. Well, if they do, revolvers ensure that, A, you're going to recover everything you have in the way of reusable materials without having to search for it or create special tools. So most of the time when you're carrying a revolver, especially in a escalation of conflict. The brass can be secured, you can pocket it, you know, again, use a drop pouch just like you do for magazines right now, which is something we argued years ago should be developed and amazingly effort but he got on the same page. Well, you do the same with that pocket for brass, you put a little bit of elastic at the top have somebody knows how to sew so that you don't have to button the pocket shut. Popcorn pocket on your blouse or a popcorn pocket on your left pant leg. What you do is you drop your brass, shove the brass into the pocket, grab the next speed loader, introduce the speed loader, drop the speed loader into the drop pocket also, or drop it if you have to if it's a crisis situation, recover it if you can. If not, well, it's something you're going to lose. You shouldn't. You should always recover everything. This needs to be part of your religion in a World War III type environment because what you have is all you have. Okay? Another reason to wear gloves, Mark. That brass is kind of hot when it goes in your hand. Yep. Well, and especially... You're showing it in your pocket for your hand. You put six, six, three, fifty-seven rounds in your hand and it's gonna be a little warm. Right, the thing is here again, remember, you think ahead, the whole idea behind this is security and reuse because we're going to run out otherwise. Now, what I like about revolvers too, it's a straight case. If I had to make, would they lathe brass, not extrude the brass or do whatever? We've done this, we've made stainless steel cases. for revolvers years ago. Dem bothered with it for a long time. A friend of mine, Jeff, when we were doing all kinds of crazy stuff, he had a little shop laid in his basement and we made 357 cases out of stainless. But we made them also in subcaliber, so basically we had like a little 32 ACP. They do these as inserts. You can buy them. In fact, the last company I saw, Sportsman's Guide, actually offers the inserts to create subcaliber devices. But we also built full 357 Magnum cases. Now, in theory, if you were doing this as a company, they would be considered not acceptable expense-wise. But if you're working with, at that time it was the Vietnam War era, the end of that aerospace was big, we were in the Ann Arbor-Ipsilanti area, aerospace materials were everywhere. So we went with a very high grade of very fine stainless steel, and we built, oh, probably about 35, 40 cases out of stainless that were straight cases. slightly tapered internally to the point where the bullet seats in the forward of the case, it was to proper spec, but the rest of the case was slightly heavier. And this made for a little more efficient blast cup chamber area where the powder collects in front of the primer, which was kind of cool. Now, if you're to build a lot of them, companies would charge you an arm and leg, but we were using off-the-shelf stuff we picked up from resale shops or from, for instance, University of Michigan property years and years and years ago where stuff like that come out by the box. It's all kinds of inane stuff. So it was fun to research, you know, to do things like that. Well, we could do that now with any kind of metal. You could use brass, copper. You can make shells out of copper. So if you had copper available, you're making a straight rimmed case. You're going to shave more material off the outside so your internal dimension, remember, has to match your ID. But it's very straightforward and simple to do. And you can do it with a combination of the lathe and a drill press. Drill press does the rest of your finish work. And again, simple, straightforward. So the revolvers are more likely to be kept alive in a distressed situation. Oh, and by the way, everything can be reloaded with black powder. Don't forget that. Everything, every rifle you got could theoretically use black powder. Well, isn't my first choice? No. Would it be the perforatory? No, but if I had to keep shooting, remember the revolver is conducive to a lot. It's much more user-friendly for maintenance, you know, for cleaning maintenance. And again, less likely to lose things. The cylinder is attached to the weapon. Now, there's more maintenance in the long, long, long haul with a revolver because of timing. Okay, that's the only thing you got to remember. But since you're probably not going to be wailing away with that pistol nonstop, And you're not a cop in a cop shop where they used to have you train. Well, even when they tried to get them to train, most people wouldn't back in the day. And they still don't even today. Contrary to what they try to claim. No, nothing by comparison to what you might think. So the weapons are not going to be worn out. They're not going to be, you know, debilitated easily. The other thing here again is even with parts, there are plenty and plenty and plenty of revolver parts laying out there, so all the basic parts can be acquired for a pretty good price in surplus. Something else to think about. And for those of you who might have certain guns, I will remind you, go over to, for instance, CenterFireSystems.com, CenterFireSystems.com, and go look at all the revolvers that they've collected, but also something else they're doing now. They're doing parts sets for revolvers. They have a source. I don't know where this is coming from. I don't know if it's a cop shop overseas. I don't know if it's Central American police. But somebody has got a ton of unique and odds and end revolvers, llamas. Certainly, smiths, colds, and the colds and smiths are pricey, but the parts kits, if you have one and you're looking for everything you need for a spare, including a barrel, those parts kits at CenterFireSystems.com might be useful, especially if you're thinking long haul. Now, another thing and reason I'd point you there is some of you might have, like we've experienced more than a few times in my lifetime, people who, other people who collect a bunch of stuff and if you find a big collection of things in one place and then you connect them with a big collection of things from another you can assemble like we get hundreds and then hundreds and hundreds of K-98 Mausers. Well a lot of guys have frames and stuff like that they've collected where they went to a gun show and frames and stuff weren't in many cases accounted for. In fact, in Michigan, I will remind you that the law of the way is still technically written. If you buy a pistol frame, you don't have to have a green slip. You don't have to buy it like you would say a handgun, where you have to have a handgun, a permit. It's not supposed to be a permit. Oh, it's a safety inspection. So instead, you buy it as if it were a rifle because it's not chambered. It doesn't have a caliber. So for the longest time to get a 1911 years ago was to buy the frame separate and then go like to go to Sarco and buy an entire kit for $97 and put a 1911 together for about $150 to $160 a gun. Now today it's not quite that cheap but if you go over to Centerfire and there's a few other companies that are doing this, I don't know what these sources are yet. I haven't had time to sit down and say, hey, where are you getting these? Because if you go to center fire, there is line after line after line after line after line of what looked to be some pretty odds and ends and high mileage revolvers. They even had some RGs in there. And a bunch of other pistols I haven't seen for a very long time. And not some automatic. We're talking all of these are revolvers, which I think is most fascinating. Now I don't know if somebody has an old inventory from SAMCO. It's possible, but I don't recall SAMCO offering revolvers like this. So just a heads up, go to Centerfire, you'll see what I'm talking about. But if you have, for instance, like a .38 air weight, or if you have, say, a Smith & Wesson Model 10, or if you have a Colt, when I say Colt, Colt always, no matter who's got them, the price parts for older guns like that, they're going crazy price, but maybe you have a frame laying around and if you have the right frame laying around all those parts that are sitting there would drop right into that frame and you would have another operating handgun and Since the frame probably is nobody knows where it is You buying the parts kit means that you have a handgun that nobody knows where it is Which probably would be kind of nice and the more of those you have the happier you'll be So you might want to check out centerfiresystems.com, www.centerfiresystems.com, that is centerfiresystems.com. Now otherwise, revolvers, pretty straightforward, not a whole lot. I mean, no firearm is really all that grossly overcomplicated. But revolvers are very, very, very user-friendly, straightforward, point and click. And that's one of the other reasons I like them, is in a crisis panic fire There isn't anything to think about other than get a bullet into the target. Okay. J frames are fantastic for being small out of the way. I know they're only five shot, but guess what? They work. Well, I can somebody asked me before all that. Would you carry a J frame is like in combat? Sure. And heartbeat. Why? In fact, why? Because again, hey, five shots, 38 special. I put some I put a medium hot load in there, although I try not to with a J frame. It'll do what it's supposed to do. I think one of the other things to remember, and this gets back to a little argument, we've got a few minutes here. Years ago, the anti-handgun crowd in the NRA and the anti-handgun army was trying to, and a whole bunch of the people who were from the military, were trying to tell you that you didn't need a backup handgun. A backup handgun for you is terrible, terrible, terrible, because instead of a handgun, you could be carrying two more magazines, or three, depending on the rifle. In other words, for the weight of a Smith & Wesson Model 39, a Walther P38, back in the day an Astra 600, all those guns were relatively reasonably priced, though the Smith would have been the most expensive. But you can get a 9mm pistol for a pretty good price, a couple spare mags that go right on the usual leather or the canvas holster you can buy with it. So you got two mags spare plus you got the gun. Well, you shouldn't carry that handgun. You should carry two more 20 round M14 magazines or three 20 round M16 magazines or a couple of M16 30 round magazines. But the handgun is bad because what good is the handgun to you? And I'm thinking every time I heard that it's like there's there's no logic to this other than the anti handgun agenda and sure as hell it Progressively came out that that's what was being blathered by these people. It wasn't that the hand wasn't effective It was that it was terrible for you to have it. Go ahead call and it was from supposedly pro-gun people What happens if you're in a firefight and you've got a broken firing pin in your rifle? Those mags aren't doing you any good. Good to have a backup. Plus, the weight of the weapon is, by comparison, first of all, I was young. Johnny Jet Jack. You know what? You get all pumped up, you're working out, you're already feeling pretty good. That handgun isn't causing a whole lot of distress at all. There's a lot of different ways it can be carried so that it's out of the way. Personal flavor choice there. So yeah, the idea was, well, wait a minute, it's still kind of handy to have a, nice to have a handgun, but it's not for the police state and globalist mindset that we need you just as useful cannon fodder to go only so far, not to be, you know, thinking about the idea of having that evil handgun. When you get home, you need to preach about the handguns being bad. So the whole gist of this, this was permeated all through this crap from the sixties and, well, more in the seventies than the early eighties. And it was like, really? Okay, well how about I have a spare handgun for a couple of different reasons? And I've explained this before. You're standing there, something happens to you, you get stunned, and you can't find your weapon. Maybe it's in pieces over off to the right there, about 20 yards. I can reach over to my holster here, hand you my, give you my handgun, and now you're contributing to the firefight, and it's not one gun, but we got a team. You know, any time you can put more bullets down range, it's probably a lot more convenient. Now, don't go just blazing away. I always love the scene in the Silver Streak, where he says, give me a gun! And he throws the gun to him, and he immediately jumps and goes, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click, click So, you know, common sense here is the handgun's supposed to try to get you to something heavier anyway, or it's enough to save you at close range or intermediate range, even if you know what you're doing, from, you know, being overrun by somebody who has the ambition of probably killing you. And while I do have sharp, pointy objects that I carry all over my body, I really do, all kinds of other tools, that one in-between tool is awfully handy to have. And you can't tell me throughout history, because that's all BS otherwise, that if a man could find a handgun to stuff in his belt in any combat situation, that he didn't grab it. My favorite image, and I have it, forgive me, I can't remember the corporal's name, so slap me in the microphone, but I usually have it sitting right in front of me at the workstation, but I haven't pulled it out of the box. And it's an airborne trooper from the Battle of the Bulge. He's got a cartridge belt on his regular web gear. He's got another cartridge belt by itself over top of that. Over top of the first one, he's got a hanger hooked up on his suspenders with more ammunition, more cartridges. He's got a 45 1911 hanging on the belt. He's got a spare mag pouch hanging from another spot. He's carrying grenades everywhere. He looks like death, I mean he looks like he's lost 20 pounds, you know, his uniform is hanging on him, right? He's been running on high octane for a long time. But he's carrying a 2.35 inch rocket launcher. He's got a rifle grenade launcher on the garand he's carrying. And all this is on his shoulders, you know, wrapped around him. He's carrying spare ammunition for the rocket launcher over his left shoulder. He's got the grenade launcher fixed to the rifle. And of course he's got two fighting knives. He's got his boot knife and he's got his regular bayonet fixed where it normally would be on the backpack over the shoulder. And it's like, well, he's carrying everything but the kitchen sink. And it's like he pointed out, he goes, well, what do you do with all that? He goes, I just like to be prepared for what I typically run into. And that's the whole point is, again, Well, what would you want that for? Well, think about it. What's really interesting is if you pay attention, you'll see a lot more of that, you might imagine. Wearing the regular six-point suspenders with a regular BAR belt or with a regular 10-pocket cartridge belt, and then taking another cartridge belt without the suspenders and clipping that over the top so you have a second layer ammunition, another 10 pockets of D-clips, okay, of grand ammo or Springfield ammo. It was a bolt gun. Now, BAR operators do the same thing, but I've also seen, and I had one guy who was a BAR operator said the same thing, and I've always kind of liked, is what they would do is they would take, separate one of the BAR rigs, take them, you can separate them, slide everything off. and you make hangers, you sew them right to the suspenders in the front so you're carrying six magazines around your waist and you're carrying, or no you're carrying 12, forgive me 12 around your waist and you're carrying six mags on each suspender. Plus you're carrying more crap behind you because don't forget your basic web gear is set up with your M1943 backpack and then your sustainment pouch which nowadays we call Fanny Pack, Butt Pack, you know, it was a original mother of the of the butt pack as it was built the M 1956 utility pack and Yeah, that was stuff with he said that was stuff to everything else. What was the stuff with more ammo? If I fall in the water he said I'd have gone straight to the bottom because so I avoid getting in the water He goes, but then again, I'm carrying a bar. Okay, so I'm usually kind of with a squad leader and he's telling me who to shoot So, again, just ideas. Here we are at the top, and the idea is we're gonna take a break for everybody out there. Beautiful day outside. Fog and smoke from all the fires from the competence across the country because of the eco-freak, where's, petals, and Satanists. But oh well, we'll live with it. We've got... It's the tall and the sons of liberty. 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 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 a number traded in your name You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally 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 Republican each God given right and pray to God keep the torch of freedom burning bright as I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for 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 and tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a 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? Second hour of the afternoon, intelligence report time occurred. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. southwest, southeast, north, and when you're listening to us on, www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org, and we're on satellite. We're also on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Weapons Wednesday. It is the 7th of June, the day after the first landing in France and the Normandy invasion. The English are coming back to you in French. Oh, you mean that was, you think that was the first time that the English invaded the Norman coast? Yeah, they just got us to come along. That's all. But anyway. It is the 15th year of open obvious and pissing in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2023 older calendar 2023 battle for the Republic the dance of swords I have just come back from France securing your inheritance I find out that there's trouble in the north that our northern army has been destroyed. Remember that from with long shanks from, well, that's right, a million wallace. And what's funny about it is, again, he was talking about that area because over and over again, in fact, for the longest time, remember the Normans. Where are those Normans? Normandy. Normandy. Oh, that might indicate something. And for the longest time, England was not just the islands, not just the greater holdings of Wales, England, Ireland, and Scotland. Bloody hell, they owned a big chunk of the French coast, although it wasn't really French then, was it? But it was a reversal on that, because the Norman, of course, invasion of England, and back and forth tit for tat, Well, eventually that got all intermingled. So again, if we look at it from a European perspective, yes, it was from a phenomenal big monstrous landing, like nothing anybody else had done, but it wasn't in a place that hadn't been done before. It hadn't been done over and over. We were just part of the big long history of what they've done there many times. Just a heads up on that one. They've played us. They played us well, you know. So anyway, today, second day, well, my friend would be going inland. My carpenter friend, who talked about, he said, when he, well, he was the second wave that landed at Normandy. They had a little time to think, and then they were moving inland immediately. But they almost as quickly got into the Bocage, which is the next wave of, oh, aukie-puk. And that was fighting at close, close range nonstop. And very few of any movies ever wanted to pick that because needless to say, all the timetables for the invasion of France got thrown out the window. In fact, my uncle that I've told you about many times, Uncle Bob, literally was his uncle Bob. That's where he lost his third tank was in the Bocage because the fighting was literally a point-flight range nonstop. Well, they would be working inland, but eventually would hit the bocage, which was the hedgerow country. We're talking fortress hedgerows, guys. These are hedgerows that are like something out of an old fairy tale because that's exactly where the idea came from in the fairy tales. The thickness of the old growth and the type of plants chosen for being horrific, foreign-bearing, monstrous, easily regrown foliage that inter-tweeter-wove amongst itself, weaving almost what you would think was cartoonish in nature. It literally is an example of something you used to read in books and never could really wrap your brain around. It was truly impenetrable. So basically you'd be fighting over like a 20 acre or a 30 acre square of fields surrounded by these bokash lines with an entrance in from one side and an entrance in from the other. So it was literally like our agricultural urban warfare, house warfare. You know, four tanks go in, no tanks come out. In one situation, as my uncle was there, but just before that happened, before his tank was taken out, he was just taken out into minor action, his last tank. They lost 40 tanks in one action alone in an area that was about 20 some acres. And basically, the Germans probably would have killed more American tanks, but they kept shooting tanks over again just to be safe. So some of the tanks actually that went into the little rectangle or hex-tangle, whatever it was, Some of them were able to get out simply because they couldn't be seen to be shot, but the Germans didn't want to take any chances. So some tanks that had already been hit were shot two, three, four, five, and six times just out of policy. And again, tit for tat. Yeah, we knocked out German equipment, but they were much better at it. In fact, there's another axiom that comes out of that period of time. Well, the Germans don't have much. And as my Uncle Bob would say, well, they don't have much. But they sure as hell know how to use what they have So it's like well, they have less well, then obviously they're doing more with less We have lots and they're doing more than we are so heads up on that one legal Oh, the Germans hate blah blah blah Germans knew knew how to fight with what they had and by the way their casualties were just as bad as ours as far as the infantry goes something you need to be prepared for The conflict we're headed into, again, logistics, it's Weapons Wednesday. One of the other things I will repeat is, if you're gonna be a quartermaster slash armorer, is sorting out and prioritizing magazines. Now, this is one of the things that's gonna determine a little something I was talking about yesterday. Let's say that you have to throw an ad hoc group together, and one guy's got a handgun with a lot of magazines. The other guy's got a carbine. Two guys have bolt-action, scoped rifles, best rifles in the bunch actually of this. A 12-gauge pump shotgun, five-shot standard. Good guns, all good guns, nothing wrong with them. The M1 carbine is just as deadly today as it was 70, 80 years ago. And it's been in service that long. In fact, I will repeat again what I've said many times. The M1 carbine is going to be as dominant a firearm on the battlefield in America as pretty much any other out there. We have preserved most of them. We haven't preserved all of them. But by God, how many carbines we put together from kits? And I've always repeated that many times on the air, but how many people are now buying back from the civilian marksmanship situation? They brought in a bunch of carbines for youth shooters, and a lot of people have bought those up. carbine ammo was available. They haven't just blown that out. People bought it and saved it. You don't hear a whole lot of bang, bang, bang downrange. Do you anywhere? I'm out in the country. Used to at least hear shooting on the weekends. Still do. Very rarely now though. Why? Because nobody wants to pull the trigger on the ammo they got. Doesn't mean there aren't people training. There are. But all of the traditional background noises of the country, one of them that has disappeared is blazing away and wasting ammunition. So the carbine is going to be out there in good number. Well, one of the things you need to remember is you're going to have to as an armorer and as a supply and C.O.R. officer is be able to be able to accumulate, regulate, and also do maintenance on not just the rifles but the magazines. Some things you can't fix. Plastic is bad and when it breaks it's probably finished. Unless... something can be lined up and Mr. Duck Tape can be used. Mr. Duck Tape is your friend for a lot of work. Now, otherwise, remember the problem with thickness of material need to try and secure something is that if it adds thickness and you have a magazine well like the Air 15, hell, even a layer of paint changes how stiff the magazine is going in. So this is where you have other issues. Now, there's a number of tricks And I would point out I've seen a couple of videos here, oh it's been about a half a year now, but there's a couple of guys that were doing some really interesting videos where they were taking shot magazines and showing how they could be fixed. Example, AK mags. The sad part is they were actually shooting the mags and showing, okay we had these mags, they got hit from weird angles, how do you make them work? Now this is a very realistic and good video to watch because they came up with their ideas or solutions about how to undistort the metal. Now my first rule is this, if you have an AR-15, one of the things that you need to do, well, if you have one AR-15, you wouldn't be worried about this. But still, if you want to build up an armorer's kit, one of the things you want to take is a piece of plastic and cut it so that it is the width and the thickness of an AR-15 magazine on the inside, the internal dimension. Why? Well, metal mags are still out there in force and will be for a very long time. They're stainless, there's obviously carbon steel of all kinds of good and not so good grades, by the way. Polymer, even those, it'd be good to have a mandrel slash a fixture that you can slide into the magazine and then do what are basically love caps to straighten out the magazine so that it can be brought back into service. Now, if you do that, you need a number of different working hammers just like you do for bodywork. Because on the one hand, you want to re-distort the basic form of the metal, number one. Number two, you also want to re-shape any of the dirt track or dirt channels or guide channels that are on the magazine, if you can. And it's not as difficult as it sounds. Now once you've made the mandrel that you insert into the, you know, well, hold on, my Uncle Mark will do it right. We first of all drop the magazine base plate. It might be damaged, might be jagged, hopefully it's intact, you pull that out. Number two, try to extract the follower and the main spring, magazine spring. Now, any one of these items might already be damaged. So this is another issue. If the spring cannot be saved, the spring might be shot away, which by the way, it's as likely as not with a bullet. One point or another, the fickle finger of fate, stuff happens to be in the way. But you extract the spring, and then from the magazine base is how you insert the mandrel that you have created. And you work it up in two. Now, it would probably behoove you. to taper the end of the mandrel where it goes in. Why? You want to reduce the paper so that it will fit through where the magazine lips are in phase one. Okay, now you make another one, or you can just go this way. You want to build the mandrel so that it's rounded at the top and accommodates the feed lips because remember you don't want to distort the feed lips. It may already be distorted by damage to the magazine. By inserting the mandrel, you then do the love tap we were talking about because the goes into, goes out is going to be an issue. If the bullet passed on one side, you're going to have to take that very rough edge before you insert the mandrel and try to re-lube it, undistort it however you can by pushing the material out from the inside. The metal is not really that heavy. longer files and screwdrivers can be used because they're coarse enough, they're heavy enough that you can readjust the material. And then once you get the mandrel into place, again, depending on the material you make it out of, some guys have built these out of steel, it literally becomes like an anvil, a mandrel slash anvil. What you do is you can tap on either side to readjust the metal back into place. That's a lot of work. Well, yeah, but if you're short magazines, and you will be short magazines in a very, very, very short period of time. Why? Because people are sloppy, but also people can't help it. They're getting shot at, they drop equipment, they lose equipment, they lose everything. If you're lucky, they come back carrying the rifle. Sometimes bare butt naked, like I've said many times. If you're lucky, they clung to the rifle. In some cases, people will flee and everything they're carrying, they will shuck to be able to flee faster. That's not good. You have to be credit and still better discipline. But you're not going to have enough magazines. You have a thousand magazines, you don't have enough magazines. You have a hundred magazines, you sure as hell don't have enough magazines. More is better. What's my recommended combat load or at least the combat, the number you should have for each firearm if you have an AR, 27 magazines. How about an M14? 27 magazines. What about a fill in the blank? How about a high point? 27 magazines would be best, but you're probably not going to. Those are kind of expensive, but why am I saying 27? Why is that a magic number? Well, amazingly enough, they've been keeping statistics and information based on the use of magazine-fed weapons for as long as they've been building them. And amazingly enough, the government does some monstrously tedious studies on everything. And one of the things that was discovered, and it was also reinforced with a British study, talking to officer, well, talking to enlisted men, were the guys who actually do the fighting, duh. along with NCOs and officers. And they asked them, what was your combat load going into the film on the blank? And the average was 23 to 27 magazines. And in almost every case, each man basically reported that carrying 27 mags, this included stuffing mags into pockets and any other bags they could carry on the way in, that within two hours of sustained combat, they were down to scavenging mags off of other bodies. Well, wait a minute, they were carrying 20-something magazines. Yep, and they were in sustained, constant fight, fire, you know, exchange of fire, and they dropped a mag and they didn't, you don't go back out and chase it. You're running along, I've done this myself, you're running from one obstacle to the next. Live fire, it's especially critical, you remember this, you will get your, you'll get stomped for it. You're running from one position to the next and your mag pouch is open, you drop a mag, maybe two. And they're maggots you need for the sustained fire for close quarter combat within the last phase of what is a live fire maneuver effort. You don't turn around and run back and grab the mag having major burst from one position of cover to the other. That's how you die because whoever was looking at you, already saw him and shot at you, probably missed hopefully. Well you go back for the mags, guess what? You probably aren't going to survive. So, magazine retention is a problem no matter how hard you try. Go ahead, Ed, jump in there. I hate to take you off subject, but I'm going to do this again because she just got home and she turned the news on and I'm watching it. And they're talking about the air pollution from the forest fires again and how dangerous and deadly it is could possibly cause cancer and getting your lungs and do all this kind of stuff. They're out there reporting in the smoke. And all I'm thinking is, gee, how plastic of this fiction is about we're worried about your health when the one, again, the thing that would actually help you with smoke is the thing they're not going to go to because they already messed up with the virus thing, with the masks. Now, if you're worried about air pollution, if you're worried about that particulate getting in your lungs causing cancer and all that stuff, of course they want people in lockdown in their own homes again. Wait a minute, back up here Chris, okay. But they won't tell you to use the mask. They won't use the face mask for the smoke. Oh no, not that. Okay, let's stop and think for a minute here. Are they burning a tobacco factory down range? Does Canada have massive tobacco fields that are burning right now and it smells like a Paul Mall or a Camel No Filter in the air? Is that what you're telling me? I mean, okay, let's... Any of you people stand around a campfire? When you stand around the campfire, do you think? Oh my God. Oh my God. I mean, we just did this a couple of weekends ago. Oh my God. Every breath I take brings me closer to death. It's like smoking a whole carton of cigarettes. Yeah, because you're the smoke collector, right? So, oh my God. Oh my God. Wood is burning. Oh, cancer from wood burning. You know what? Somebody walk over New York and slap those piss willies in the head. Number one, I am serious. If you've got a bunch of communist turds, I mean, oh, you mean to say every time I go to Camp Wiki outcome and we stand around the campfire that when we burned those poplar logs, in reality it was a big doobie, it was like a big chubby cigarette or cigar. Oh my God, those bastards, I need to sue Camp Chickawaga for giving me cancer. You know how stupid that sounds. Go ahead, caller. Are you a cancer victim? From pre-cut-force violence? Go ahead. This is Texas. I'm down here in Texas. We hit an annual, just a, they lose your smoke from Mexico because they have a year to burn. For the crops and stuff and for other stuff where they burn their fields. And we get that pretty much annually and it comes right over Texas pretty bad. What is it that would be burning that's going all day home because remember we've always talked about this is like well This has gone on forever. I mean Add to the ridiculousness of the dad well it smells like there's a giant barbecue or bonfire outside It gives you a headache. Well, go back to the list that they were going down. Oh my god Smells like a barbecue dying from barbecue every day. My neighbor had had roast pork and the aroma and the material, the detritus came down and it was like pasty silt on me. But every time I smelled it, I got hungry because it smelled like barbecue pork or cow or hot dogs or whatever it was he was cooking. Oh my God. Oh my God, I'm eating cancer from the fuck. I just want to beat people. If you want thing to say like you said, okay, if you are worried about it, you know, really the heavy particulate that is one of the things that a dust mask will protect you from because the particulate is very large, okay, and I've even told you the sure if you have all you had in a nuclear attack was you know, or in this situation, it's the same way as a rapid t-shirt around your face. You're not doing it because it's gonna stop. It's gonna not gonna stop biological or chemical weapons, but you're stopping the the garbage from going into your lungs and building up. But this is not that intense. Guys, we had chunks of Mount St. Helen coming down on us for how long after, and we were literally due west of that. And every morning we would come out and there would be this great residue of the stuff that went up to 80,000 feet, went down range, got cool, and came down again. And that was chunks of trees. Part of it was little dust from that. Those two or three people that got caught right in the middle of the lava flow and when the big explosion took place, you always hear about them in the movies. Well, part of them was laying around us somewhere. It adds a little bit to ash, little gray pieces of ash, little tiny, tiny, tiny silky pieces of ash. Okay? But to see or hear such foolishness from a bunch of stupid incompetence that would open their face and tell you that you're going to get, you're going to get cancer. Oh my God. Talk about a bunch of neurotic hypochondriacs with paranoid tendencies. Oh my God. It's like one giant barbecue out there. Oh, oh my God. They told me I might get cancer. I can feel the... I can imagine these Jewish American princes. Oh God. I can feel the cancer building and I said we're going to get cancer. The cigarette makers there. Oh no, we don't need to... Well, that is something. We don't need to sue Canada. We need to pass an emergency measure to send more firefighters to Canada because of that volunteers that they've got... from the UK, from France, from Australia, from the US are not enough to fight this fire. Trudeau needs something like a trillion dollars to fund the firefighting of this forest fire. I saw that earlier, it's another way to milk more money from the American people. It's the big Can you picture it? Good old Tommy faggot queer, pedo, devil worshipping Trudeau. Oh, I need a million dollars. No, how about a billion? No, I need a trillion dollars. Well, how about that? But you know what? He will like right now as we speak, that means that his little parasitic communist pieces of excrement make up that that Todi government. are right now looking for every pocket of cash they can strip and send over to Tel Aviv to their private accounts right now. That's just all there is to it. By the way, I will say this, you know, my dad, when he was little, we had the great fires in northern Michigan, and the fire raged all summer. Volunteers did go from all over the state up to the northern part of Michigan. They come back and tell everybody how bad it was. And my dad said that it was like all night for the whole summer, it was like it was an orange sunrise from horizon to horizon to the north from the east to the west. And we lived at the bottom of the state in Ann Arbor, Michigan, that area my dad did. And looking north, It was like sunrise way off on the horizon for as far as you could see from the left to the right. What does that tell you? So, oh, this is totally new. Like nothing we've ever seen. We need a... Yeah, I'm sure everybody needs a trillion dollars. Just print up some more trillion. Do some Canadian trillion digits. Why don't you just do that? Just pull that out of your bung hole, Mr. Trudeau. Don't look at us. Go pull that out of your bung hole and you figure it out. Same with the turd and Lansing. I'll guarantee they're doing the same thing in Lansing then, guys. Remember, anytime they can create some fake-ass crisis with people who are totally unqualified to do the job, they can pull whatever bold numbers they want out of their hind end and plug it in and rape, kill, pillage, and burn the taxpayer, which is exactly what they do. Just wait a little while, Mark. A trillion dollars would be enough to buy one of those 1950s bumper engines. That would be about it. else that I've pointed out is the amount of material that could be in reserve, do we care if it works 100, you know, like maybe it works 98 percent. Okay, when the time comes if you have old equipment. It used to be my dad was in the fire department in Ann Arbor, Michigan when he came into the fire department in 1952, 53. The reserve equipment were horse-drawn pumping unit, pumper units. They were kept at station number two. The station, I think, is now shut down. I think we invited the other day a month ago or two. But it was obviously the second oldest station. The old one was downtown. But nothing was thrown away if it was put into reserve and they found a place to store it. That way if something happened where they had a city fire, they would still have more equipment to draw from. But they threw that all out because needless to say, the people who got into management were all a bunch of parasitic tit suckers. who were incompetent and idiots and had no interest in firefighting whatsoever but were paper pushing bureaucrats who could Lego block just like you see we got Jennifer Grant home in energy that be which has nothing to do with that doesn't have a clue does in fact if you watch the bat faggot director was it any different The Bat Faggot director couldn't answer a single stinking question. He sounded like the mortar company commander from Kelly's Heroes. If you remember, go watch Kelly's Heroes. You'll see what I'm talking about. That's exactly what the ass hat sound like. But, well, I have specialists, in other words, all of these turds have no business being near the jobs that they're in because they are incompetent. They're yes men. You now know that they're Satanist, pedo queers, or they wouldn't be hired, because that's all you get in government now, are Satanist, pedo queers, who are purely there because they've been in the back room, boofing each other's hind end. And they absolutely have no clue about what's going on. They have no clue about how things operate and they kick anybody out who does. So of course that shit slash queer slash communist POS Trudeau. Okay, yeah, whatever. Just print them out. Canada makes dollars. Canada can just print up a trillion dollars in paper. and or digits and they're all set. Why do they need to ask anybody else for digits? You know what I mean? Piss on Canada. Canada is free and independent and they hate America. Trudeau hates America. Actually free America. If we all piss on Canada, we'll put the fire out. There we go. Everybody can send urine. You know, I mean it would be a useful way to dispose of waste and the process help to fight the fires. I just, you know, the fact that from top to bottom you've got everybody's, the public, from the public fool system so stupefied that someone could spew that out there and then people are repeating it. You got it, I mean, well, so you all hold your breath when you go camping. What? So when you're at the campfire and everybody you want brings along their bundles of wood and you go out and you find some other dry stuff and you get that fire roaring and it's doing about eight foot. There's smoke all over the place. You guys all hold your breath, right? Because after all, we wouldn't want to get cancer from the maple and the oak and the ash and the, don't forget the pine, which is always smoky and the poplar and you know, yeah, right. We all got, you all got your cancer from that? Don't you tell me. See how stupid that sounds. How ridiculously stupid that sounds. Hey Mark. But you got a bunch of dumbasses in these cities now that the public fool system has done that to people with no logical process whatsoever. That is dumb. Go ahead, jump in there, Collar. This is Carl in Virginia. I hope they're not expecting those Canadian truck drivers to deliver all the firefighting supplies. Remember those guys they pissed off last year? You know, they, you can come up and deliver stuff now. Well, it's like, it's like California is in the same boat. More and more everybody is like, well, I don't want to go to California because I don't want to have the trouble there and I may not get out again. With Canada, it's like, well, you pissed on everybody. They know if you're, I don't need to haul a thing in Canada, I'll take it to the border. You can get somebody else taking it across the border. You know, tell Canada, piss off. Sorry, I know we have Canadian listeners, but you know attitude is what's needed right now Because you remember we're also horrible and hideous and terrible and America's bad this and America hate that but we want American dollars You could send us some dollars so Trudeau can buy another from fat mansion in a foreign country to hide his ass there After somebody kicks his hind end out of government eventually somebody will and you'll jump on a plane fly out and disappear to get away from being hung And if they're slow, if they're fast, they'll grab him, hang him, preferably from a burning tree in the middle of a forest fire, and that gets rid of a couple of problems at the same time, including the faggot-y smell of his unwashed bung-butt, okay? So, it's just an idea. I mean, not gonna happen, you know, that's what I do. But, you know, we can hope. So anyway, yeah, well, here's the rule. Anything, paint respirator, face masks, Whatever you want to do if you believe that the particle is so heavy that this is reminiscent of When I worked at the U of M and we had my shit It's a waste of my time, but it's a this is a Jewish little Jewish American princess But her parents when they had mother was there and the mother and the my and the daughter were identical And everything was an ongoing diatribe of distress. Everything was distress. Everything was panic. Everything was complaint, complaint, complaint, complaint. I mean, as a husband, you could just see it was like he was worn down like an old, old rock. And he was just dead quiet listening nonstop and watching what was happening and not really interfering. You're not saying a word or incorporating anything, but nonstop. Prattle, rattle, horrible this, I'm gonna die that, oh, everything was a panic thing at that moment. Oh, yeah, I'm telling ya. So, all the time. They was smashing. Well, here's the, yes, they was, but here's the thing. The mother grabs something out of a box and she turns and she looks at me and she goes, do you think this plug is too much? They bought this gang plug that was a double row. like 20 individual plugs to go into and you know, power supply, power plug, right? But it was a big long one. It was literally three feet long, okay? I said, well, I'm looking at it and I wanted to laugh. I really did, because it's like, lady, this wiring's all from 1947. Well, it's been upgraded maybe in 1962. And she goes, okay, so she goes, oh, yeah, the plug's right there. So anyway, she realized that they moved the furniture and she's looking and she goes, The plug is behind the end of the bed. Now this is a set of double bunk beds, okay? And she pulls the bunk bed, or has the husband who quietly just follows orders and pulls the bunk bed back away from the wall. The bunk bed, the plug is at the head of the bunk bed. The bunk bed has a crossbar. So there's this crossbar, you know, there's three slats, and then the other part of the bunk bed comes together. It's in the student door, okay? So she's got this thing and she puts it back behind the headboard, but she's got the plug in hand. And she hands the plug to her other hand and she has to put her head on the crossbar. So immediately it's, we're getting a moment by moment description and of course with each step she's holding her down. She's putting her neck on this crossbar. The whole process, the husband is looking at her with his bland flat eyes. And then he looks up the ceiling while this is going on and I look briefly at him and I'm thinking he's probably got his mind while she goes take his hand, hammer it onto her head and snap her neck. Hey dad, I got another one for you. She finally made it. She finally made it. Two, three minutes sitting on the bed. Oh God, I almost died. I almost died. Time to plug that in. I was joking. The husband has to turn around and quietly leave the room. So... This article is from yesterday. What wildfire smoke does to the human body is from Time Magazine. I already posted it in the gilded for everybody. This is a running drum beat. But again... They're not telling anybody to wear masks. I saw one person in a report wear a mask that was close to where the fires are. But there's nobody in New York, none of the reporters out there are masking up for going outside for this cancerous weather that's out there that they're telling everybody they need to lock up and stay indoors to avoid. Yeah, but they probably would have worn the masks because they had to go down to the local meeting house there in the middle of town. I must read this completely. What wildfire smoke does to the human body? Oh my god! Oh my god! It does it to the human body! Oi! Oh, I'm so my clap. Oh, I'm melting my hair right now. What do I do? Oi! What wildfire smoke does to the human body? Has anybody... I want everybody to do something. I told you this, the fire my dad watched was in the 20s, guys. In the 1920s. Okay. Actually, in this article, at the very end they say wearing an M95 mask can be a good option to protect yourself. It's the very last thing in the article. You know, anything to get the face bra back on anyway, but you're implying so that everybody goes, oh my God, my face bras, well, my face bras. And it's like, you know, the thing is, those face bras that they were wearing probably would be better off for the smoke because the smoke particulates is large and the virus is so tiny. Right. This is where, sure, it's okay. I wouldn't say it's a bad for if you think you can't handle the smoke. My problem is pulling that out of your arse and trying to tell me that, you know, especially this story. Well, the other one will cause I'm never going to a campfire again. Martha! I'm serious, do you realize how stupid this sounds? I've got another article from Time Magazine why the Canadian forest fires won't go out, they're blaming El Nino. Because of that. It makes such dry conditions that it's impossible to make, to get enough water to make everything go out, that's what they're saying. It's not true, it's white oppression of the Eskimo slash Inuit populations of Western Canada. that has caused the El Nino Effect, which in reality is white supremacy attacking the indigenous population and the chipmunks of Canada along with porcupine and moose. And this is another example of white privilege and white supremacy. And also remember, don't forget, you're gonna die of cancer and it's all the white guy's fault. Well, it is probably because, well, in theory Trudeau may be white. But, you know, all of the incompetence, queer, pedo, Satanists that are in charge have utterly failed you and will continue to utterly fail you. However, I would say that if you believe this BS, then if you've been going camping for the last 20 years, the accumulative effect of all those campfires you stood near, and don't forget barbecuing. Oh, God, that's charcoal. Oh, imagine how horrifically contaminated and cancerous your body is because of all the barbecues and campfires you came near. Didn't you smell smoky when you were done? Don't you realize what you did? Oh my goodness, society is to blame. I'm gonna die. Oi, oi. It's amazing you can print this crap, but then again if you've got the public fool system creating so many stupid people God Just think about this have you ever seen an article any well No I can't say that shouldn't say this I've been done before Because I don't really pay attention to what the kosher mafia is doing to create the you know the fear-mongering that they probably did year after year in New York with the New York press because we don't read the New York press and or the New Jersey press like in the big cities or any of the larger areas like that. We don't for the most part it's like, are you crazy? You're crazy. Okay, you're crazy, you're nuts, you're crazy, you're nuts, you're crazy, you're crazy. Well, in reverse order I can do that to them. So what wildfire smoke does to the human body? Wouldn't you say this is about as natural as you could get? What could be a more natural fire than a wood burning fire. You know, I mean a natural occurring fire. This is about as, you know, like just like the natural man. Remember that song? Just like the natural man. What happened here? Where'd that all go? Oh, well, that was thrown out with the ecology. That's right. This is the Eco Freak climate change fruit loop. Nutcase, too hot, too cold. Too light, too dark. Too wet, too dry. And everything is always the extreme in terms of their limited, sick, sad, small-minded perception, no matter what the hell it is. You just want to be clubbing like a baby seal. Hitting them doesn't do any good. The stupid doesn't leak out. It just seems to collect the effect. You probably, if you hit them, you swell up tissue. And what little leakage of stupidity that might have drained isn't going to. So it just clogs up the mental capacities that much more. As a certain sensei said in the movie UHF, anybody watch the movie UHF? What was that line? Oh, new students today, sensei? Oh, yes, very stupid. Stupid. You want to slap them. But again, at least break out the masks and run around with the face prop. But remember, I would also wear the face bras over the ears. Don't forget to remind them of that. And they need a goggle or preferably just glasses, but maybe with some wraparound screens, like a good set of safety glasses, those would be good. And then while they're at it, maybe a garbage bag. over everything because the smoke is just so horrible. The natural wood smoke. This isn't about as natural as you could get. Is the Canadian northern forest made up of polymers? Guys, did I miss something here? Is the northern forest is Alberta, mostly covered with a fake polyester leaf cover to simulate natural plant fiber? I'll bet you it is. I'll bet you that's what the problem is. It's the Plastine carcinogens coming off of the massive numbers of Canadian planted artificial foliage that unfortunately has now been discovered is being burned and in turn is being dropped on America. Who'd have thunk it? I never imagined that before. But now that we know the truth, what is more natural Hey, it could be all the all the camera things that they put they make them look like trees and cameras are all plastic So that maybe that maybe that's where the cars from things are coming from. Yeah Most of Alberta is like really it's guys if it's a woods. It's like wood. Okay, it's just that simple. Well, there's some roof and a forest rebuilding that caught fire and that there's some plastic and some tar there and it bonded to the dust, to the smoky dustiness. And I'm sure that they'll kill you all. They'll just kill you all. Remember, we have the new EPA zero tolerance for everything. You're all going to die. No matter what, you're going to die. Now granted, I would take precautions. It's not a bad thing. Go ahead, put the mask on. Well, I can't because it's for the wrong reason. What do you mean for the wrong reason? It's actually like Gar said, it's actually where it might do some good. Like I said, I'd wear it if it was a radiological threat. This is kind of like, there we go. Maybe you could say there was a radiation threat. Is there a radiation threat off of the woods? Is that it? Ooh, radioisotopes? Oh my god, the forest is radioactive. We're all going to die. Don't go to the woods. You'll die because the green stuff is even more dangerous than the burnt stuff. Do you have much radiation, reflection you get off of green leaves and off of pine needles? Do you know how lethal that is, how dangerous that is? You know what kind of carcinogens are in pine needles and maple leaves and oak leaves? Did you realize? Do you know? You see how stupid that sounds? Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. I just want to shoot. I just want to club them. I don't want to use waste ammunition. I need that for the police state. Anyway, well, as it is, we're getting that money. We got that miasma earlier when about a month ago now where we had a wave of that for a whole day and a half, two days. And I think that actually hit all over the place up and down the Midwest. And by the way, we do have our own share of that because we have fires that have been in the upper part of the state of Michigan, I'm sure, coordinated by the same turds because the leftists that we have in Lansing, Michigan are the same Jewish communist turds that run Canada. Okay, so the same turds that have been told to promote the fires and not fight the fires effectively here are the same turds that were setting up the scam there. I've always told you, remember, the east side of the state of Michigan is run by the Canadian Jewish mob. The west side of Michigan is run by the Chicago Jewish mob. And if you look at where the fires are and the effects and everything, it's kind of in the no man's land up north. What a surprise. I would never have thought this. It looks like we have a cookie cutter copycat operation going. They must have figured out that this was a tit that hadn't been sucked in a while. And on that note, the fires probably were set just like the ones out in California because remember they've got vast amounts of reserve emergency money that they're supposed to hold. So what do you want to bet that they planned the fires And the purpose for this is that they can then milk these accounts that, like Social Security, are not supposed to be touched so that when the time comes, they have the monies they need to fight the fires. So do we have any fires in Wisconsin going the same way? Ooh, I wonder. That's a very communist state. Yeah. I mean, by the way, we haven't had any fires like this in quite some time. I used to play in the wreckage of the fires of the 20s. When I was young, my dad used to take me deer hunting before I could shoot, actually when I was pre-teen. And the trees were so massive in that fire that they were about half the width of our kitchen. And the old hollowed out, burned out hulls of the greatest of those trees I could walk inside. I could go inside and stand and there was wood all around me for about a good six, you know, six feet away from one side to the other on the inside where the, where these tree trunks had hollowed out that were standing old growth trees. And my dad said, you know, you don't go in there. It's like, remember people are out here hunting, they might just shoot at a tree for the fun of it. You're inside the tree and they don't know. Of course, now it's the middle of nowhere and I don't know how many people were out there while we were out there, but it was logical that, yeah, maybe you should get outside. Because it was a great place, I thought, be like, no, get in here with a rifle if you had one. And I could get in through the cracks, you know, the holes in the tree and the whole woods was littered with the old growth wreckage like that laying at its side still. It's all gone now. I mean, the great woods eat those things. And this is the year 2023 and that was way back in the late 50s. So it's like all the buildings and houses that were of that type that were wreckage up there. Not even barely the metal is left now. So imagine. But anyway, don't worry, they're making new wreckage. I'm sure that the Jewish mob told the Jewish mob, the mob manipulated characters that are the Pettos and Lansing. You know, we can get some fires going, be able to milk that money that you guys have stuck in those accounts that you haven't used for a long time. And they probably already got it set up, so they even knew exactly how to launder the money appropriately, so it'll cost six, 10, 20 times as much as it should for the same work, and most all that money will be disappeared from this account, these accounts, almost immediately. So be ready for that. Give me five. My name is Craig. I am here with you live if you are listening on June 7 of 2023 after D-Day anniversary, right? A few things I'm talking about. I don't really have much in the way of notes or anything, but I've got a lot of things to be off the top of my head. I've got three major topics I can cover if you want to join in at some point. Yes, I might start out with what I'm doing with And then lastly, powder coating and building wheels from my army truck in the last two weeks I've been working on this. Jeez. That's one topic I'll probably talk about. Another topic I recently done some work on. My mother's house, she wants to save a lot of money on her energy bills. And I can give a few tips here. Basically, I know a lot about alternative energy and various energy topics. I can cover that in ways you can save a lot of money on your power bill if you want. Also, there's the recent dam break and things going on in Ukraine and the nuclear power plant is supposedly in danger because of the rest of the water losing its water. So that's the kind of things I want to talk about. We'll see if we get to all of them. Let's go on now. Basically, there's no shows for me for a while. Still, my next show is until like Labor Day or something. I've been waiting late in the year, later in the year. Still haven't been able to get all my machinery fixed, although I've been working on one of them myself. Yeah, I've geared myself up to do sandblasting, powder coating, and it's become an interesting learning process. Sandblasting, as you know, cleans up the metal to down the bare metal, takes all the way all the paint and everything. And then powder coating is an alternative to painting. Essentially, a powder coat is a much more durable, baked on finish, like your refrigerator. That's generally a powder coat finish. Kind of harder to scratch, kind of hard to get. You know, even a refrigerator sitting outside, it's not likely to rust. It's more durable, it's more resilient to the weather. And so, on my military, my Army truck that I put the new engine in, I I was putting on wheels from another vehicle. I'm going from 10 wheels to 6, going what they call super singles. The six wheels are bigger than the 10 that I'm pulling off. And because I had to tear down the wheels, I decided to go ahead and... At first I was going to have to hate them, prime them and paint them. So anyway, I took them in a sandblast. I had a sandblast cabinet. Never sandblasted before, but the wheels were not big enough to fit in a sandblast cabinet. So I took them to a place... It had them sandblasting for me. Got it back, looked nice and clean. Then there are a lot of other parts that I started sandblasting myself in a sandblast cabinet. Never did it before, like I said. You're not worrying a lot about that, all the different... It's just kind of... It's really messy. You gotta have vacuum, basically. You gotta evacuate the chamber. You gotta have light in the chamber. You gotta have... Gotta be big enough to get in there. You gotta have the gun has to be in there. There's two hoses going to the gun It's kind of hard to see it's not a fun process I was able to monkey around with that and get some smaller parts of sandblasted and the powder coating I was gonna paint I brought some primer and some military olive drab But my brother who passed away Almost two years ago now. He had a powder coat gun still in the box never been open or anything And I got left behind, I said, well, I might consider doing that instead of let me try this because I already have a gun. And I had bought an oven. You need a pretty dedicated oven for this. If you're doing a small part, let's say an intake manifold for engine or something, you can fit it like a regular home oven, home kitchen oven. You can fit it and you get an old oven to find one on the street that still works or whatever for find one for 50 bucks, so somewhere. And you can if it's bigger enough to part by the way these wheels were way too big for that sort of them So I got a bigger oven One that essentially I could put a refrigerator in it's inside dimensions are three foot by three foot by six foot I can stand up in there be almost so get inside and anyway It's a big oven has two big heating elements and a fan circulates near And so I decided to go ahead and powder coat them The wheels are what they call split rims where the rims come in part. The two sides of the rims are held together by 20 nuts and studs. And then it comes apart and then the wheels got the tires are very big, the 20-inch wheels. But the whole assembly weighs almost 500 pounds with wheels, rims, and the run flats. Inside the tires it's got something what the military calls run flats, which is basically a hard, like a kind of like a hard rubber tire inside the tire itself. to where if you lose all the air, if your tires get shot out, you could still go limited distance on the road flats. Your tire would go down about four inches from fully inflated to go down four or five inches or so visibly, and then it'd be running on hard rubber in there. It's like a hard rubber tire inside there. Very difficult to work with, very unflexible, very heavy. And anyway, the whole assembly weighs almost 500 pounds. So I've got the crane to where I'm working on the tires because it's almost necessary. If the tire falls over, or if I'm working on it laying down, there's no way I can stand it back up by myself. And I'm working by myself. Need the crane to pick it up. Even if it's just laying down. Either that or come along in a tree or something. Which has been in the past also. So anyway, these are very heavy tires. And powder coating, the problem with powder coating is, now it's not that big of a deal for something like an exhaust manifold or maybe something else, some other small parts that are going to fit into a regular oven, but these wheels, they're in two parts. One part weighs 35 pounds, another part weighs 75 pounds. And with powder coating, you spray them with a dry powder. The gun has a bit of, I'm going to get a little bit of an education if you don't know anything about it. The gun has an electro electrode to it. The powder coating process is kind of, it's pretty complicated to it. I mean it's got, well it's not really complicated, but it's got four, five wires and hoses going to the damn thing. It's got a little unit that's about the size of like a battery charger and it from that you put a ground to your part or the metal parts holding your part and it creates like a an ion attraction that gives the powder a bit of an electrical charge and the part is electrically charged in the opposite, like negative versus positive, to where the powder is fairly attracted to the part when you're spraying. It doesn't stick to it like a liquid spray paint can do, like if you're using a spray gun for paint. But it sticks a little bit, it's not great, because a lot of it falls out and gets in the air. But it hits the electrostatically charged part and it tends to stick to it. It's kind of hard to get an even surface, but it's not too bad after you bake it. Because after you get the powder on there, the problem is being the parts that are so heavy, you can't touch it unless you spray it in the oven, which would make a really big mess. You can't put the part into the oven because it's too heavy. You can't touch it. You have it hanging by hooks generally or on something like a piece of metal or cardboard or something and you can slide it into the oven. But you can't touch it because the powder would immediately get rubbed off. Any part you touch would get rubbed off. So usually they're hanging from hooks and hooks are just a tiny bit that doesn't have powder on it. And they're hanging from hooks and they go into the oven. And a lot of times people have a... Especially the bigger places, they have a cart, kind of like a thing you might hang your clothes up on, a rack. And they spray all the parts on this rack and then it has wheels and they wheel it into the oven. The oven has no floor. You wheel it into the oven and close the door and you heat it up that way and then pull it out and wait for them to cool and then you get them up. And the process of heating It goes to generally about 400 degrees. You've got to get it up to 400 degrees. You've got to maintain 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. That's generally what most powders do. There's a little differences in powders. There's a lot of different powders, different dikes of powders. In fact, there's like a million colors, literally. There's so many. I ordered sloshes of about a dozen colors that were basically olive drab, carmine green colors, and had to select which one to use. So there's a lot of colors to choose from. And then there's, because I was going for, of course, since it's an RV truck, I didn't want anything glossy. Because usually when people powder coat a wheel, they're going for candy, apple, red, or something bright, shiny, and sparkly. That's usually what you can get with sparkles in it. You can get clear coats. Because that's usually when people, as a more expensive process, and usually people will spend a little more money when they want to trick out a vehicle. Or like if they're powder coating your intake manifolds and such and things under the engine to trick out the look of the engine. In the case of an exhaust intake manifold, it's not going to extend the life of it necessarily. It's under the hood. It's not exposed to the weather. So it's not really a corrosion issue. But usually when people trick out some things, it's not too much of a corrosion issue anyway. So anyway, the part's too heavy, so in my case, because my oven has a floor, my oven is on wheels. Like I say, I can put a refrigerator in there. But so what I decided to do is I had a little jib inside the garage, a little crane, and I lifted it up. I hooked up a rig where, because what you really need is a forklift to be able to put the part into the oven. Because you can't use a cart to go in the oven because the oven has a floor and it's got wheels and it's elevated off the ground about six or seven inches. So I hooked up. I don't have a forklift, especially in the little garage that I'm working. I'm working in a very small space. So I devised a method to push the oven into my work, spraying it outside of the oven, because you almost have to. I'm trying to create a booth around it because it probably gets everywhere. In fact, you can buy special booths to spray it in when they have exhaust panels. But your shop is going to have powder everywhere. And I try to catch it. I try to catch the powder that drops, because especially when I was learning I wasted a lot of powder. The powder is pretty expensive. It's about like the price of paint though. But anyway, you can gather all that powder as long as you don't have to introduce any contaminants and then put it back in the jar and use it again. All the stuff falls on the floor. But inevitably it gets all over the shop and you've got a little bit of dust in here. But anyway, you can't touch the part because it's got loose powder on it. You can easily wipe it off. You can take a spray. If you mess up, you can just take either a paintbrush or something and brush the powder off or you can spray it with its compressed air, get all the powder off and start over before you bake it. When you bake it is when it locks it in place. It basically melts it and locks it in place in case it's a little thicker, thicker finish than Primer and paint also. So anyway, I learned all about that and I spent the last two days building the six wheels although one of them I can't build right now because I needed some parts. Two studs were no good. I got to replace two studs. I got to order those today. Order two studs and two nuts in order to valve assembly, pressure, the valve stem assembly. And they ordered another O-ring and things of that. So anyway, I built five of the six. And if they got them into the crane, although the crane wasn't big enough to hold all of them, I got to strap one to the back and chain it down so I can get it to the property. But anyway, hopefully within the next week, I got to get the parts I ordered in and I'll be able to get these wheels on this army truck. I'm that close to getting it started. I've just got to get a mechanic out there and I've got one ready. But there's no point. I'm not in a hurry right now because I still, the truck couldn't move if I started now anyway without the wheels. Because I still got, I took out two of the flat tires. I still got eight flat tires in the back. And it's going to be tricky jacking up because it's kind of not a hill. And I got to brace it with another piece of equipment to keep it from wanting to tumble down the hill when I jack it up. So it's got a rock in the back about It's probably about 10 ton rock that's in the back right now. Really big rock. Okay, that's that. We'll move on to my next topic. Now you're welcome Colleen by the way and participate if you like. Saving energy, money on power bills. We need to talk about this a little bit here and there. I never did, but my mom recently wanted to save some money. A lot of power bills are too high. Here's the method you can use. Now most people in the country, you check. You may or may not know this. Your utility may offer lower rates for off-peak use. In other words, generally, I'll tell you what it is here for my mom, because I looked it up. From out here, between the hours of 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., the electric rates are higher than normal. They're five cents higher per kilowatt hour than normal. So I think the going rate probably, I think here is around 10 cents a kilowatt hour, so it goes up about 50%. to 15 times a kilowatt hour. That's a pretty substantial increase. So any electricity used in this case between 2 and 7 p.m. is charged at 50% more. Now your area likely might have different times. It could even have a three-tier rate. In other words, if you use power like at midnight at 4 or 5 a.m., it might even be a lower rate than normal, even lower lower. might have a three tier rate. And that's the time if you have like an electric vehicle, for instance, that's the time you want to set a timer to charge your electric vehicle when it's the cheapest, you see. And that's the concept I'm going to utilize here for these three saving, money saving tips that I'm going to relate to you that you might want to utilize in your own house if you want to save some money. If you have a two or three tier system. Now this case is just a two tier system, but for those five hours between two and seven PM, There's things you can do it up. The theory is here folks, because nuclear power, well not nuclear power, all of our grid is completely at its limit essentially. There's not much room for air here. When it gets hot, we're really on borderline of the grid collapsing. Or when it gets really cold, the grid could easily collapse. Solar and wind, for instance, only add electricity mainly that their most powerful times of the day is between like 11 and 1 p.m. 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. That's when they're producing close to their peak. The rest of the time they're producing a lot less and it varies when a cloud goes over. So they have to have what they call peaker plants. Peaker, one word, peaker plants, which is generally a nuclear, well not nuclear, again I keep saying nuclear. It's a power plant that is generally natural gas. Because natural gas has the ability to quickly ramp up and get production started very quickly where most others have a difficulty. Nuclear takes a long time to ramp up. Hydroelectric is pretty quick because they just open the valves up more and create more energy on the turbines. Coal can be ramped up somewhat. It's not as quickly as natural gas. But solar wind are at the mercy of the sun and the wind. So you can't do much with those. So generally you'll have peaker plants and basically between the hours of in this case what they consider 2 to 7 p.m. in case of consumer's energy in Michigan. They charge more between 2 and 7 p.m. Though that's what in this case. That's what they're aiming to be their peak times Most of them you're gonna find especially between the hours of 5 and 7 is when most areas will be using a lot more electricity than normal and That's when they're going to charge especially around those times when people get home to work you see those are times when people are going to be using more electricity and those are the times that utilities are likely to give you a You have to make you pay more during those times. So here's what you can do. Something I did, I just ordered, I haven't installed yet. But I got thinking about ways. Well, one thing I did right away, it was easy, was an easy order. She has this dehumidifier that runs in the basement all the time. 24 hours a day. It's the summertime, just runs and runs and runs. Now, that could probably be shut off between the hours of 2 and 7 p.m. So I said, let's put that on a timer. So I put it on a timer. A dehumidifier or it essentially is a dehumidifier as a small air conditioner. Air conditioners do use a lot of electricity. It's a 110 outlet though. It's a small air conditioner. And I have it on timer where it shuts off at a little bit before two o'clock and then it turns back on a little bit after seven. So it doesn't run when we're getting charged 50% more. So big savings. Not only are you using more electricity at that time, but you're not getting charged the 50% more than you would have. Because those five hours of usage that she's not using it would have been billed as, let's see, seven and a half hours of normal usage. 50% more for five hours. Now that's one way. It's an easy thing you could buy. I paid less than 10 bucks on eBay for a brand new thing. It has these, it's just a dial. I got the type with the dial, just the old school one where you didn't have to mess around with the digital and figuring out the menus and which button to push, up, down buttons and menu and enter. Those get complicated in my opinion. So I just went with one that has a rotary thing that turns. You set it for the time and you push these little knobs when you want it to start and stop. Easy. Easy peasy. You just have to keep track of when the time changes. You gotta reset the thing or adjust the time on it. Or when you have power outages for more than five, 10 minutes at a time. You need to reset, you need to change, it takes the time on it. So you save money that way. Now anything that heats, air conditioning but heating is actually more likely to use up your power, your electricity. So anything that heats is a good thing to try to figure out to cut out back on. Especially if you have electric heat, electric clothes dryer, electric wire heater, electric range, these are the things that really usually use the most electricity when you're using those appliances. Now in case of a range, you're not going to be able to wait an on time or you're going to use it when you want to or when you want to cook dinner and if you need to start before 7 p.m., well then okay, you're going to have to bite the bullet on that. But you might consider using oven before, before 2 or after 7, whatever. That's up to you. You can adjust your lifestyle if you can. Something like a range is harder to do though. Clothes dryer is usually pretty easy to do that. Just don't use your clothes dryer between the hours of 2 a.m. and 7 in this case. Pretty easy, no timer needed. Your water heater now is a special case, and this is what I did with the water heater. Because your water heater is essentially a storage tank, it's got thermal mass that you could shut that water heater off between the hours of two and seven and still have hot water, and then you wouldn't even notice a difference. Now, water heater kicks out by itself automatically, so you never know when it's going to kick out. You've got an idea. When you start using a lot of hot water, you've got to have an idea that's going to kick out. Then we're talking about natural gas here. We're talking about electric water heaters and electric grain use and electric clothes dryers and electric heat. So the water heater, you can put on a timer the same way. Now, these are 220 outlets, so 240, whatever. a special one, and I did buy a special one, but it only cost me five bucks at eBay when they used one. It cost me 20 bucks to ship it. It's about the size of a little, I think I put some size over here. It molds to your wall. It's hardwired. I'm trying to get a reference. It's about seven inches wide. It's about three inches off of a wall and it's about 10 inches high. A metal box, it molds to the wall. In this case, I'll be interrupting the power that goes through the water heater. It's going to do some wiring. If you don't know how to do wiring, you're going to have to hire an electrician to do it. If you don't know how to get your hand in, you can probably do that yourself. But shut off the power first and cut the wires and start running new wires from your interrupting. All you're doing is stopping the electricity going to the water heater when you want it to. So you set the timer. Again, I got one that's a rotary dial. It's not a digital one. The thing shuts off a little bit before 2 o'clock, but the water is already hot inside the tank, right? Should be. And then it turns back out a little bit after 7 p.m. And the water is still hot. When we had the power outage off for like five days here, I noticed the water stayed hot for, still usable for like two days. So five hours is a piece of cake for this. It's a battery. It's a storage. It's an energy storage, a form of a battery. So you can easily shut off your water heater unless you have a huge family. You know your family's lifestyle. If you use a lot of hot water between those hours, well then maybe this won't work for you. But I bet for most people it won't work. You can try it. But down there at 2 p.m., shut off your water heater, do your normal business, use all the water you think you need, and then turn it back on and see if at 7 o'clock you still have hot water. You probably do. But again, your needs may vary. So you want to hear it cut out a timer, it's pretty cheap to buy a thing. It's going to be rather expensive if you have to have somebody do it for you. If you don't know how to do it, it's going to be expensive for you to buy it, have somebody pick it. Because it's going to be over $100 probably. If you hire somebody to do it, it's going to cost, the box itself is probably going to cost over $100. Maybe less, I don't know. It could be somewhere around $100 probably for the box. And then it's going to be another $200, $300 to have somebody to sell it, an electrician, licensed electrician. So please, if you don't know how to do it, you better have an electrician do it. I don't have a wire housing to work. So that's how you can save, that could be a pretty substantial saving, then it's very easy to do. Now here's another thing you can do. In this particular case, my mother's house, she has an all-electric heat, too. But it's not electric resistance heating. It did have that when it was built in the 60s, electric resistance heating. But it got converted to electric geothermal, ground coupled geothermal. If you don't know what that means, a lot of you probably know what a heat pump is. Essentially, it's a form of a heat pump. But instead of having a condenser outside, or is that the evaporator? I get them mixed up. Instead of having that unit sitting in the back, it's about the size of a, almost like a size of a clothes dryer, sitting in the back of your house generally with refrigerant lines going into your furnace, it has lines that run underground. Pretty deep underground, usually a couple hundred feet of lines that snake around in the, either go down into a well or they go horizontally and snake around in your yard, very generally about eight to 10 feet deep. And the idea there, 8 to 10 feet deep, it's about 50 to 55 degrees all year. Whereas in your backyard, where that heat pump unit is, it's anywhere between 0 degrees and 100 degrees. So the heat pump likes much better, 50 to 55 degrees, instead of 0 to 100 degrees. So you're running the refrigerant and using the ground to either cool or heat, depending on which way the refrigerant is running for that heat pump to operate that day. What I noticed is we had some hot days here in Michigan, 90 plus for several days in a row. I monitored the temperature in the house with everything off between the hours of two and seven. And I noticed the house temperature only went up about two degrees. Two degrees. That's it. Keeping all the windows closed. The other side of the house, this particular house, it's a sixties built house. It has four inches of insulation in the wall, maybe eight inches of blown insulation in the attic. It's a wood frame house. It's kind of the standard of the day. It's not real great, but it's okay. It doesn't have insulation. And it only went up two degrees, having everything shut off for those five hours. That's indurable by pretty much anybody's standards, I would think. So you could not use your central layer between the hours 2 and 7. So generally today your thermostat, if your thermostat in this case is the digital one so I had to go online and watch a video on how to use the damn thing because you really needed a big instruction manual to learn how to use the damn thing because it's got setbacks and up and down at different times of the day, blah blah blah, different days of the week. It's a nightmare to learn, I think. And then, because I have so many digital things that I can't remember how to use all these damn things. But anyway, this thermostat had a way to automatically set it without having to buy a special box or rewire the thing. And so you can do that with your own thermostat, probably, depending on what kind of thermostat. If it's a digital thermostat, you probably can set it back between the hours and two and seven and not use your air conditioning during that time. Now, as soon as it goes for heating, you might find You'll have to do an experiment, but you might find that it's in durable not using any heat. Electric heat during the hours in two and seven. So having it on a timer on your thermostat again, experiment. See what it's like. See if it's a two degree drop, is it a five degree drop, is it a bearable? Probably is. Your house is a heat sink, essentially. All that drywall is a lot of thermal mass, and it retains the heat and it slowly releases the heat when it starts getting colder. So the temperature of your house doesn't drop immediately or go up immediately. It takes a while because of the items in the house that have already heated or cooled to that particular temperature. It takes a while for that thermal mess to change the temperature. That's why being underground is such a good concept because it doesn't change hardly at all. Massive thermal mess. That's why you could have an underground house that might not heat hardly any air, air conditioner or cooling at all if it's insulated. So that's the way you can save heating. air conditioning, water heating, clothes drying. A third method, another method now, it's a little bit more involved, but this is where to go, especially if you have a three-tier system with your utility. But you can do it with a two-tier also. And I consider doing, because right now I have a solar system I'm not even using that I could install in this house temporarily. I could charge up a battery bank with solar panels and let's say you don't have solar panels. You don't have a wind machine, you don't have solar panels. You could buy a battery bank. There's something called the Tesla Powerwall, for instance. It's a big battery bank. Instead of being in a car, it's in your house. But you could build your own battery bank too. You have a battery bank in your house, you could charge up when the electricity rates are the cheapest of all. And then you have a full battery bank in the morning, and then when the rates are most expensive, depending on how big your battery bank is. You could you could use the power off that battery bank during those high rates now district requires a much bigger investment and You'd have to do some cost analysis and calculations to see what the payback be if it even be worth it but you would be using essentially no electricity at the highest rates and You'd be buying the cheapest power during the You'd be buying power during the cheapest times of the day to charge your batteries. Where your water heater is a form of a battery, energy storage, that's what the chemical battery we're talking about is storing electricity via a battery bank. So these are some ways that you can save power. I hope somebody's getting some of this if you're using natural gas. I don't know if any utilities do a different tiers or natural gas use. I don't know the answer to that. But you might be able to figure out something if that's the case. If you get charged different rates for different times of the day with natural gas, you might be able to do some similar things. Okay, I'm going to talk about now the nuclear power plant and the dam break. Because right away, fear-mongering galore, YouTube's great for that, the process is doing it too, the mainstream media was doing it. All of a sudden massive fear-mongering about the Zephyr-Asia nuclear power plant and the, I will not pronounce the dam, let's call it the Kaka-Kovaka, Kaka-Hovka dam that was destroyed. Quite a way of the media saying it's Russia. I got to tell you folks, it makes no sense for Russia to destroy this dam. I think we're talking about Ukraine again. I don't have direct evidence of this, but I got a lot of Russia has no motive to destroy that dam. They control the areas, they control the dam, they control the areas upstream and downstream of the dam, including the Zapp Asian nuclear power plant, which is using the reservoir for that, for the part of the cooling system for the nuclear power plant. Yeah, that's the one that got taken over by the Russians, it got bombed and so on and so on, and everybody fear-mongering on that. But frankly, it's a non-issue, folks. Let me explain some things to you. And we'll get into the motive of the dam here too in a second. Okay, so you might be aware that the dam has been destroyed causing the reservoir to drain this apparition nuclear power plant that pulled part of its cooling water system from its cooling ponds from the reservoir. The major concern that people have in the media immediately latched onto it is that the draining of this reservoir will make it to where the Zaperation nuclear power plant will no longer be able to cool itself and cause a meltdown. So is this something that's a possibility that we should be concerned about? So the primary source of information that I'm going to relate to you that I'm going to read directly from here in a bit. you should be getting your information from. To get non-fear mongering information about this and how that plan is designed and how it works is from the International Atomic Energy Agency, the IAEA, which is all the information you're going to need on the update number 161, again, I'll get into that here in a bit, of the situation in Ukraine. It just came out yesterday in an update. So they start out with how there is no immediate safety concerns with the Zapparicia nuclear power plant. Additionally, they talk about how there's several months worth of cooling available for the nuclear power plant. Additionally, there are alternative sources that this nuclear power plant can pull from. So how it is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, and then how can they keep it cool for so long after losing its primary heat sink? First off, the Zaper-Eason nuclear power plant, its final reactor that was still running, was shut down in September of last year, meaning that the decay heat has dramatically dropped over that time frame, and this means that a lot less water is needed to keep the reactor cool. It's like after, after, uh, uh, Spent fuel is removed from a reactor and it's put in the spent fuel pools. It loses its heat pretty quickly. But they have to keep it in pools. They do have to keep the pools cool. And in this case, it's still, the rods are still in the reactor and they're slowly cooling down. But they've already cooled down about 90% of where the decay has brought them from where they were in near operational temperature. So you don't need nearly as much water. The power plant is basically a state of cold shutdown where you can almost shut out the water and you would need no cooling water whatsoever. They still need a little bit of cooling water like they were in spent fuel pools. So additionally these... The power plant has, the separation power plant has additional sources of water to help cool this residual heat. Specifically, the cooling pond, which the IAEA reports is being completely full, it's what they say has several months worth of water in order to keep the plant cool. So this situation is not ideal, but okay, this reservoir, what we're talking about here, if you look at a satellite image of the plant, and the water, how it's situated in the water. The water level has gone down. However, there's a reservoir in its own dam. There's a separate area. I don't know how big it is. It looks like it's maybe 40 acres or 100 acres. I don't know. There's a big area of water that's captured with seawalls essentially to where the water is dropped but not inside this reservoir. They have emergency, emergency cooling water there. Isn't that wonderful? So, nuclear power plants, they've thought of a lot of things. So, this was not unanticipated. A dam break was something that they probably designed as a potentiality in the plant. And there's probably enough cooling water there to get those reactors, let's say the reactor was already running. There's probably enough cooling water there available in that reservoir to get the plant down to a much safer level where if they have to, water could be shipped in, trucked in, or other means. So it's not an ideal situation at all. It's not to minimize all this. The reactor safety is not a good thing. to downplay. But thankfully, we are far away from any sort of nuclear disaster, but the consequence is downstream of the hydro dam, and they are absolutely under an ecological humanitarian disaster there. So that's the bigger deal right there, the destruction of the dam. You can see how much more time I have here. About 18 minutes or so. Okay, so let's talk about the dam. The dam breaks. And we'll have those dams keep breaking, and dam breaks. Okay, as we know, okay, the Western narrative, right away in the media, I'm beginning to completely shut down. I used to believe some of the things they were telling me, but then I got realizing that there's a whole lot there that they're just flat out lying to us about, about this Ukraine situation. The Western narrative right now is that Russia blew off its own dam They blew up their own bridge, those remember, the Kursud Bridge to Crimea. They blew up the Nord Stream Pipeline. Oh, come on, man. Putin's really just a madman, right? He's doing all these stupid things to his own well-being in Ukraine. None of those things make any sense for him to blow up his own bridge, blow up his own dam, blow up his own nuclear power plant. These are multi-billion dollar assets. maybe million dollar assets in the case of a multi-million dollar escapes the bridge but I better cost them over a billion dollars to build that bridge. The nuclear power plant certainly cost more than a billion to build and the pipeline certainly cost more than a billion. Anyway, these are very expensive infrastructure that Russia has absolutely no reason to destroy these things. The dam, the nuclear power plant, and the pipeline. Now in the case of the pipeline, and I played this on the air on my show many months ago, the pipeline, we have Biden saying that we will not allow that pipeline to be completed. We will take care of it in basically those words he said directly, this video of it on YouTube. Yeah, they made sure that they would They said pretty directly that they would make sure that pipeline never got used. The second one, because the one was already in use. But now all of them, both of them, all four of them, there's four lines down there. Two pipelines, two per line. Anyway, there's four of them, all not able to function now. The US is probably behind. But right away, the Western media blaming Russia for blowing up its own pipeline, which makes no sense whatsoever. Then we had the Crimea Bridge. Crimea Bridge. They have no reason to destroy that either. But right away they're blaming Russia for blowing up their own bridge. Makes no sense whatsoever. The pipeline, the nuclear power plant. Why would you destroy not only turning it into a multi-billion dollar nuclear power plant into a slug, but more than a slug, now you're turning it into a multi-billion dollar liability of the cleanup problem. Why would you do that? That's double whammy there. No reason whatsoever for Russia to destroy that plant. The note for Ukraine for the bridge is pretty obvious. The moment for Ukraine, the pipeline is a little more fuzzy, but they also have the Ukraine has pipelines running through Ukraine that they have been able to control now, or at least you did. And then, but now they don't have to worry about controlling that natural gas flow. to the other NATO countries such as West Germany. Because all those pipelines are inoperable now. So now it has to be done in different ways. Or I guess, well, I guess there is another pipeline. I don't know, I can't remember all the details, but there's other ways they can get some gas there. There's nothing like they used to. Did I rush the ability to sell their natural gas? So it doesn't make any sense for them to destroy, for Russia to destroy their own pipeline or for Ukraine it would make sense but they may not have the capability. They don't have as big of a motive maybe as the United States did or maybe they did in cooperation with the United States. We don't know the full outcome of that yet. The nuclear power plant presents another issue that is just that it doesn't make sense for them to destroy that either. And when we see all this bombing, component bombing, but you know how nothing's ever really hitting the plant. It sounds like everything's just missing. So what we see there, in my opinion, this is my opinion, I don't have direct evidence of this, but there's people who are saying that they see the direction that the bombs are coming from and they're coming in from Ukraine. And they're landing near the plant, not actually hitting the plant, but when they have all these high mres and things that can hit things a little more accuracy and for some reason they can't hit a nuclear power plant, hmm, well how's that work? What's the technology behind that? Are they using dumb artillery? It just doesn't have any guidance whatsoever? They're heading near the press so the press sees their cameras as the plant's being bombed. It's under attack and they mount an asset on the press and it gets on the mainstream media and the fear-mongering galore. And the idea is why Ukraine is probably doing that is to get the press to get all wild up, to get NATO involved because most people are ignorant about it. You can't destroy that plant with some artillery shells. It could take a lot more than artillery shells to destroy that plant, to have a meltdown or cause it to shut down, to be in danger. And they're not even hitting it. They're hitting near it just to get the press riled up, to get the world upset enough to demand NATO get involved in this little war with Ukraine, with Russia and Ukraine. That's what that's all about. Now moving on to the dam. The dam has, there's no motive for Russia to destroy that dam. Not only was it an asset to the nuclear power plant, but now we have thousands of lives that are going to be possibly lost and so much disruption downstream and upstream of industry and people that live in commercial. So many problems now with flooding downstream and lack of water upstream. Remember, this is Russia-controlled territory. Russia is not going to lose this territory. There's another thing that media keeps screaming about. Oh, we've got a counteroffensive coming. Any day now, a counteroffensive they talk about from us. Hyping it up, hyping it up. There's no counteroffensive. There's not going to be a counteroffensive. This is it, folks. There's no counteroffensive. This is my opinion based a lot on the evidence, but Ukraine does not have the manpower to do this. We could send all the equipment in the world. They don't have enough manpower to do this anymore. They've lost a lot of lives. They don't have an unlimited supply of people to demand to supply. Must they start recruiting women too? All the able-bodied males were prevented from leaving the country when this started. The women and children left, a lot of them did. Are they going to demand that everybody come back or... There is no counter-offensive. There's not going to be one. This is it. Russia's going to win this war. I mean, I don't like it. I'd rather see Ukraine win it, but I can't doubt that. It's a fact of the matter is, or I forget opinion, Russia's basically already won this. They're not going to give back anything. Took it like Crimea, just like they took the other promises, the other four promises that they've already annexed anyway. And the West is just going to say, more sanctions, more sanctions. How good does that work for you before? Last time. How does that work for you, equipment? Crimea. Oh, you're sanctions. We need more sanctions. Russia's doing fine folks. You start looking at their economy. They're actually doing pretty good But what's going on over there? They're actually doing not too bad The press likes to talk to pick out various things here and there that make them looks bad, but overall they're doing pretty damn good considering Russia is not really hurting very badly folks and they have unlimited relatively unlimited manpower to throw at that to throw in there as their artillery bait, what do they call that? sending people off to war just to die essentially. They got plenty of people and they just have to recruit more. They got such a huge country and lots of people to recruit. And they got rid of their undesirables in the process and probably won't let them back in their country. People that ran and hid became refugees outside of their own country. Now they know who are the unpatriotic ones in Russia. So let them back in. The dam break. Ukraine has a lot of reasons. And essentially the number one thing I believe is to hurt Russia. Just like when Saddam Hussein fled from Kuwait. Remember that? He knew he was losing and they burning the oil fields and stealing all the museum stuff and the riches of the country. What they call it? A Burt field, a hight, hight, hight, hightered, what they call it, Burt. I can't remember the term they use it for, but where you're going to destroy what you had, you're going to deny the enemy the gains of what they're taking from you. I can't remember the term. There's a term the military uses. I can't remember what it is now. I think a lot of you know what I'm talking about. So, they're going to, so that's what essentially, the Ukraine knows they're losing and knows they're not going to get this territory back, so they're doing what they can to make sure, deny the enemy, the Russians, The use of the power plant, the use of the industry along the way, and all the pounds and everything is going to be flooded and damaged. They're destroying and retreating. Now Ukraine has also been, and you can find this on the Internet. I should have brought up the articles so I could cite directly. You can find where they use Heimar missiles that we supply them, or I don't know, those US or those from other countries. They wanted to know the feasibility of damaging a dam with a high mar to the point where they could destroy a dam. And they found that it could be effective. They actually test-fired on the dam. They wanted to find out if a dam could be destroyed with a high mar. And they found out it probably could. And they test-fired at some things around the dam. And Ukraine did this. And this was their own dam. This was built during the Soviet era. But it's back in Russian hands now. And they're going to be able to fix this, at least not in any kind of timeframe that would be useful for a war. It's going to take probably years to fix the dam. So it's a relative premise. As far as an enemy is concerned, it's permanent enough where it damages the enemy to where maybe they can regroup. But there's going to be no regrouping. The claim is done. You might as well get over it. And the press might as well start changing their tune and start telling the people that. But no, we're just still sending more money there. I heard a report of some of our military vehicles being spotted in some of the stuff we gave you. Craig was spotted in Mexico. There's a lot of military equipment at hardware being used all over the country, when they call it black-marketed, all over the country, all over the world rather. Ukraine, remember Ukraine was one of the most cropped countries in the world. And their black market is flourishing and all the money we're sending and there's no credibility. Oh yeah, that tank got destroyed, don't worry about it. You find it being used in Brazil or something. This is not a good situation. Your tax dollars at work popping up a country that doesn't deserve to be propped up essentially, but frankly, Russia needs to be stopped. So I'm at odds to say exactly what to do with this. I'm not really in favor of NATO getting involved, but if you're actually going to stop the guy from taking over more countries and more territory, you're either going to have to get rid of the guy or stop him militarily, right? Getting rid of the God is probably the best bet. We have gotten rid of guys for many decades in many countries that we didn't like. The US, I'm talking about here. Many of them clandestinely. And now that Putin has basically a warrant for his arrest in the whole world, the world, what do they call it, the world court, is that what they call it? He basically has a arrest warrant. He can't really safely, freely travel everywhere in the world. Some countries may support him and not allow him to be arrested there, or they may turn on him. So it's dangerous for him to travel outside of Russia. People say, well, he's got cancer, he's about ready to die, and all this. Well, he's looking like he's doing pretty good. I don't like the guy. I'm not a prudent supporter, folks, but the fact of the matter is he's taken a long time to do it, a lot longer to do it than he thought. But he's doing it. He's taking over Ukraine or at least parts of it. I don't know that he'll stop the day He might go all the way to Kiev. That's where he started He might finish that job might go all the way to Kiev and take over the entire country Rather than the four provinces. These are ad annex which is about a third of the country all the way to a decile for that part It's and some of that speculation, but he's he's winning this war in Ukraine doesn't have a counter offensive There is no counter offensive There will be no carbon repressor. I guess that's about it. I was about to get to this update. Concerning the water again, the nuclear power plant, because everybody's fear monitoring this. Don't worry about it. I have not seen an increase in order, so I guess people aren't worried about it generally. The water level, the reservoir that's supplying Ukraine's Zephyr-Rijia nuclear power plant has been falling throughout the day. This was printed up yesterday. But the facility has backup options available and there is no short-term risk to nuclear safety and security. Director General Rafael Grosse of the International Atomic Energy Agency said, Director General Grosse who addressed the IAEA board of governors earlier today on the evolving situation that Ukraine's damaged Novakovica dam and its impact on the Zephyrhyn nuclear power plant said the loss Rate has been changing from around five centimeters per hour in the morning to nine centimeters per hour later in the afternoon. Again, this was yesterday. Between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. local time, the reservoir fell by a total of 83 centimeters to 15.44 meters according to regular data received by the team of IAEA experts present at the nuclear department. And at that level, goes below 12.7 meters, the nuclear power plant will no longer be able to pump water from the reservoir to replenish the reserves at the site as the full extent of the change up to the dam is not yet known and the water loss rate is fluctuating. It is not possible to predict exactly when this might happen. If the current rate were to continue, however, this level could be reached in the next couple days. Before I run out of time, I also want to mention if you want to look this up, this is the piaea.org website, the internationalatomicenergyagency.org website. And it's Update 161. If you're under IEAA, you'll be able to find this article I'm reading from. Continuing. Even at that low level, the existing water and separation of the nuclear power plant site sprinkler and cooling ponds as well as the adjacent channels can still be used for some time to cool the reactors and the spent fuel pools in the reactor buildings, which could otherwise be damaged, the director general said. In addition, large cooling pond next to the site, the main alternative source of water in the absence of the reservoir, is currently full and has enough in-stores to supply the plant for several months As its six reactors are in shutdown mode, General Garassi said, reiterating the vital necessity for it to stay intact. The site can access a deep water-filled excavation at the power plant cargo port area, the water system of a nearby city of Kandahar, and use of mobile pumps and firefighter trucks to catch water. The IAEA team was informed by the plant that it has implemented measures to limit the consumption of water so that the water used only for essential nuclear safety-related activities such as cooling other reactors and spent fuel pools. The director, also known that Ukraine, has carried out stress tests following the Fukushima nuclear accident in 2011, including the scenario of the Novakova dam failing. There is a preparedness for events like this Ukraine's separation nuclear power plant which will help staff the staff to handle this new challenging situation but clearly This is making it already difficult and unpredictable nuclear safety and security situation even more so he said So there is no danger You've got many months worth of water there still even if that reservoir completely empties out And you have other options. They just mentioned a well they have. They mentioned a nearby city they have. And they also mentioned they could bring in my fire trucks. And you don't need much anyway because it's been called shutdown. It has been since September. So it's not a big deal. But the press immediately grants onto it. You've got to get away from that fear monger. Fear mongering is key on the Internet and key on mainstream media, especially about nuclear power. And again, there is no, there's not going to be any counter-offensive. Get over it. So, I thank everybody for listening. It is on this June 7, 2023. This has been Craig from Forbid Knowledge. If you want to go to the website where I do sell some things, that is theprepperstop.com. Any of your radiological monitoring needs, which you don't need. 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 won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Those sons of the Republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As Iowoki 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 his tyrants trampled each God given right. We only watch him tremble too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? The report time our car key one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. Both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, southeast, west. Across the planet you can anywhere in the oceans the inland seas the rivers st. Lawrence of course Great Lakes Which we know you're there right now. We got some feedback from that this last weekend Appreciate that guys. Anyway, we're also the myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside the United States it is weapons Wednesday it is the 7th of June the day after the first landing at Normandy on June 6th 24 hours later plus It is the 15th year of open and in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist wildfires and the surrounding us. Anyway, 2023 year of Satan, pedo-wism, pedo-queerism and needless to say the reinvention of neurotic hypochondriacs with paranoid tendencies now coming back to, well, we have to suffer with more of that. 2023 battle for the republic the dance of swords I'm dying what wildfire smoke does to the human body the destruction the effervescent corrosion of flesh hair fingernails and your lungs with the utter destruction of virtually every significant organ in your body because of well you get involved why you'll listen and why you'll fire It's just crazy. Wildfire. Oh my god, they're wild. It's it's it of course It's another example of the man keeping us down if it weren't for white heterosexual males inventing wildfire and inventing firefighting operations Which of course in turn were responsible. It's all your fault If we had not invented fire departments that wouldn't have been wildfire the Jewish mob would have made sure it had a different name But now oh, there's money to be made I give a wild fire. And I'm sure they are milking some major accounts out right now because there haven't been any fires for a while. You know, the Department of Corrections, the Michigan Department of Corruptions has the same scam. Every year there's federal money that has to be set aside and there's federal money to be made. Big, titsuckin' money. for riots. If you have a riot, you got to have riots. Oh yeah, I'm telling you, how can we make the riots? We piss off the prisoners and stoy the pot, and maybe we can get them to do our little riot thing, and then all of a sudden, oh, the money is so big for the riot thingy. I'm telling you, riot police, you get special classes. There's a whole bunch of, it's just holy hoke stuff. I'm telling you, the old squeaky wheel thing. I'm serious. Zach's H-CAM, different part of the bureaucracy, same BS, different A. Hey Mark. Go ahead, call the trip in there. This is John from Kentucky. Hey, have you ever thought about how the wind that travels, the dip comes down from the north, dips across the center of the state, and they had to dune northeast? How come the smoke's coming south? Well, Actually, there's a thing about that with like what we've got going on with Michigan here. Remember the sucking and blowing of the Great Lakes doesn't help. And then you've got the St. Lawrence, which works like a tunnel, you know, like a valley, so to speak, if you look at it from a meteorological. So what's funny about this is, well, also, let's not forget the jet stream is tied in here too. And the jet stream, because of whatever the changes are for this particular decade or half century or century, all are tied into this, but it, you know, you just look at it. Ed brought this up because he read the, it's the Thai magazine, What Wildfire Smoke Does to the Human Body. You know, wusses live. You know what I mean? How could they have survived so long? Please. The Camp Wichemunga, every time they went out to Camp Wichemunga for the summer, they must have had hives constantly. Can you imagine what it'd be like? Oh, I got hives and I could coughing, coughing all the time. Oh, I think I felt smoke. Well, there's smoke in the campfire. Oh, that's why I'm dying. I'm just dying here. God, please drown them. I said you need to go swimming. But I can't swim. Yes, I know. Get your swimsuit on. There we go, and it's so much quieter now and the smoke is still here and we're all fine, you know. God, it's just the big thing here we've got is a pretty dynamic wind pattern for any of the Midwest, northern Midwest because of the Great Lakes. And then, let's not forget, every major river also creates a separate tributary or another element The Great Plains create a big reflector, okay, and they have the north-south major winds that come in, a big northerly that comes in every season. On the other end of the nation, the east end, you've got toilet flush from being down range. Let's not forget that. I mean, just planetary spin is bad enough, right? Whatever goes up has got to come down. So I think most... What about the Gulf Stream? Doesn't it travel that way? God help you, you're gonna die from that one too. By the time we're done, we're stuck in the middle of all this. And let's not forget, you know, all the other elements of either the flat earth or the spherical earth, depending on what you believe. This still comes down to the same constant recycle wind pattern that there are different parts of the seasons. And then there's still also different seasonal, I should say, long cyclic weather patterns. And this is why, have you noticed, they shut up completely about the water situation in California? Why aren't we hearing any more about that? Because it's a desert. The desert? Yep. They had their whole... old news. Yeah, well, but it's already done. I mean, come on. You know, I was watching somebody with a, they just had a flash flood off Lake Mead, but guys, their flash floods out west are the norm, not the exception. Now, part of this is it was a stale potato chip video. And what's fascinating to me is you need to say that they just left the dams open with all of the water, the snow, and the water that came down. But everybody's got the impression that it must all be dried up like a prune, et cetera. Well, no matter how hard they tried, nature catches up with you. The big thing here with the forest fires is that we have had efficient forest fire maintenance. For many years we did for decades but now that the white men have all been kicked out now that the purple haired poof does and the Twilight Zone Fruit Loops who said we have to do just the opposite of what those evil white heterosexual males developed now we have to let things burn and and and because well we were coached to do this from the school, but you see the Institutions are all coached by the money bags And what it comes down to is they have a certain amount of money each year that had to be anchored for fire service. And we haven't had any significant fires. So what did they do? It's like out west. Hell, they went out and started setting fires, you know, the volunteer fire department said, because they wanted to make money. You know, some of the volunteer forest fire service operations that were, you know, local. They got caught doing arson. But in this case, now this is too convenient, this is tempest in the teapot crisis that we've seen it before. I guess if you figure if you've got a bunch of people who have no history, they have no memory, they have little or no spine, you can come up and pull anything out of your arse and lie your ass off to them and just pump it up and then, well, you get like what you saw two years ago with the coronaviravirus camp. And apparently they figure that they know where the epicenters of their stupid are so they can easily plug in what wild fire smoke does to the human body. Do we just shrivel up? My toenails start to fall out, my fingernails fall out. Oh my god. My eyes fall out like plump ripe grapes or olives and my brains ooze out my ears all by just touching the smoke. Not even breathing it, just touching the smoke. Oh my god, it's so horrible. God. It's just, it's disgusting to me, but what the heck, it's entertaining. I mean, we can have a lot of fun with it. If you really have upper respiratory distress like asthma or whatever, it's no different from any other summer season situation. Yeah, then stay indoors. If you're really terrified, break out your face bra or grab a t-shirt or go grab a balaclava. And it'll filter all the heavy whatever particle it might be in the air that you feel you're now so terrified of. Hell, I'd be more worried about just regular old New York air in general anyway. I wouldn't, I don't care about the force fire downrange. It's just like, oh god, imagine what that air is actually like. So, that part they wanted, it has to be from the wild. Since these are wildfires from the wild, the wild countryside. Oh my god, another reason why you don't go near it. And I'm never going to Camp Wicca Wocka ever again for the same reason. Oh my God, it's wild! Oi! You get my drift. Maybe it's the Russians are. Yeah, I blame the Russians too. Why not? Although Canada is a Chinese run, so I mean kosher Chinese run. So this is where most of the fires are. And like I said, the other ones are up here in the northern end of Michigan. And I don't know how much publicity they're getting with the propaganda on the East Coast, but I mean, we are, we have had for the last couple of days that Hayes has kind of covered most of the state. I've been out every, all day for the last three days. nonstop. Didn't get as much painting done, but we haven't had any waterfall. It's actually has that look of almost like it wants to rain. Because if there's any regular cloud cover, it appears to be pregnant, you know, with moisture. But the cloud cover that we're seeing, this haze is uniformly dispersed from horizon to horizon. And all I can say is, well, hold your breath and run outside and get your work done. And or breathe shallow. Breathe through your nose. Your nose hairs will collect a lot of the particulate. You didn't know that right. That's why you have nose hairs. You do remember that, right? It actually is a filtering system. So don't cut them. Don't trim them if you're so terrified. Just leave them normal. They'll grow out and get bushy and they'll help to be part of the particulate collector that you know helps to stop the stuff from getting into your lungs. But you got to breathe through your nose, not your mouth. Breathe in through your nose. Breathe out through your mouth. There you go. Hopefully that helps. Again, by the way, two things. The hummingbirds are out the window, desperately trying to get to the geraniums that are lush. I have these three-year-old plus geraniums I've had indoors and they are blooming just to no end. I think there's 10 blooms on each, bundled blooms of geraniums. And right now, while I was talking, the hummingbird came up to the window and the cat is sitting right there looking at the hummingbird who can't, the hummingbird can't get to the flowers, the cat can't get to the hummingbird, but they're all longing for something. Which is really fascinating. So anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday and your mind is your first best weapon. Please don't let the other side manipulate it in any crazy town way. And probably the best example is more of the stupidity that you are seeing creating the crisis panic management. It's the only thing that's sick, perverted, satanic, pedo, queer government is good for. That's all they got left, is panic. And it's not really working well for them. While they're covering the tracks on their multi-trillion dollar thieving machine. Which is all digits that are irrelevant you keep making more of them and you know what? It's like Darcy it's like the Weimar Republic Yeah, a bushel basket full of Deutschmarks would buy you a loaf of bread and if you laid the basket down Somebody would grab the bagged basket dump out the money and steal the basket because it was worth more than the money that was in it Oops, which is kind of what's happened here. It's like We have let the inept, the incompetent, and the foolish do what they're doing and, you know, these numbers are insane. We always laugh at Zimbabwe, but what's the difference between Zimbabwe and, you know, having a trillion dollar hamburger and a nation state where you have a bunch of incompetence, crazy town, purple haired fruit loop, pedo-queer Satanists. who couldn't count if their life depended on it and ours does, our life does depend on doing things right. Theirs, well they just can chug along because no matter what stupidity, whatever action they take, it's covered. So it's another reason we need to clean the country out. That's why we have Weapons Wednesday. We need to be prepared to deal with this problem sooner rather than later. And it is an ongoing thing that needs to be part of our Properly re-engineered culture to reset to the parameters originally intended. Everybody is part of the militia. Everybody is responsible for the defense of the nation, but more importantly, the defense of our freedom, our liberty, and our property. Okay, most important there. Because property rights are unique to America, the rest of the planet. Well, the crown owns the property, the potentate owns the property, the dictator owns the property. And that includes you. So again buy more ammo pick up more mags Another thing here real quick and again. Oh You know what we wanted to do is if we could Edward should be right there. I think If we could we need to play the latest guns and gadgets. I want to get that out there We actually I think pitched in with the effect that took place here But if we could The latest guns and gadgets before I forget we're already 20 almost 20 minutes into the program I know it's gonna take a minute to play if everybody out there. Hey, it's Wednesday. We're looking at the weekend up ahead Conditions look to be about they're gonna be about the same way they are now, but let's assume some moisture because Not an if it's a when and if you look at the fronts and everything that's going on Even this last weekend, we did get a squall. We got some major downpour for a bit. It really made a big difference. Everything you got in the ground, guys, has jumped. The corn's up, the wheat's up. Everything is looking great. The bottom of the state is, there's still a lot of faddle land, but this year is looking better than last year, as far as generally the areas that I pay attention to, which is pretty much everywhere I go. So again, if you're going to... Well, here we go. Before I jump into that, I want to thank the sponsor of the video, and that's the Sonoran Desert Institute. SDI is an accredited college. It's a distance learning institute where everything is mailed right to your door where you can take individual classes or you can even earn your degree in classes such as ballistics or gunsmithing and the like. There's a ton of different options. You can check out their link down below. It's SDI.edu slash G&G, and they even have financial aid available. Check them out, guys and gals. SDI.edu slash G&G. Thanks to SDI for sponsoring this video. Alright, today we're going to go out and talk about that decision that came down yesterday afternoon in the Third Circuit. And in this case, I'm going to get his name right, Brian Range. I think it was like 20 plus years ago. Brian Range pleaded guilty in a Pennsylvania state court. for basically lying on his application for food stamps. He lied about his income so that he would qualify to receive government food stamps, and it came back to bite him. He gets taken to court, he pleaded guilty, and then became a prohibited person because that law is this... some states have what's called like super misdemeanors. and they're treated like felonies because uh... felony wins basically two years or longer that the sense could be he pleaded guilty was stripped from his second amendment rights he became a prohibited person he kept fighting and he kept fighting and finally yesterday uh... his efforts came through now before i jump into what the court said it has to be pointed out it's very important that this was specific to his case. This was an as-applied challenge. It's not a blanket challenge. However, this decision can absolutely be used by others in the same scenario going forward. So this court said, and I'm going to read it to you, it obviously went to Bruin, right? And we all know the Bruin case is done. It's reset the the threshold in which government can take people's Second Amendment rights away if they're violent or for whatever reason, whatever law they violate, right? So it reset that requirement to the text, history, and tradition of the country and that anything that the government has written into law or whatever has to be consistent with the nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation at the time of the adoption of the Second Amendment. And The challenge here was against 18 USC 922 G1 and in this the court found that the state, the government had not met its burden in saying that the restriction on this Mr. Range that was put on him was consistent with the nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation. When the Second Amendment was adopted, there were no restrictions that said if you lie to collect food stamps, then you will be no longer able to defend yourself for the rest of your life. So these judges got it right. Now, This is a big, huge decision because this, I imagine, there are a bunch of people right now considering filing on their own behalf because a lot of people have been stripped for laws just like this, for being made a prohibited person for a non-violent felony. and this will set the stage for a waterfall of filings. Now, what still is yet to be seen or known is will the government reach out and appeal this to the Supreme Court to have their input on this? Similar to what they did with the bump stock decision, they may want the federal, the highest court in the land to have input on this, or they may not. We'll see, but as of right now in this one case as applied, this gentleman is no longer a prohibited person, and that is good because Our rights don't get stripped away because you falsify an application for food stamps. That's not how this country was created yet. That's what some states have made it into. So this is just another section of 18 U.S.C. 922 G that's been found unconstitutional. There's been several of them and the government is reeling. Guys, it's a good time to be in the Second Amendment game. uh... the government is taking loss after loss after loss the bruin decision has a lot to do with it the hell of a decision has a lot to do with it uh... and uh... the best is yet to come there will be a lot coming out of uh... judge bonita's is court soon and a lot of people are e sending messages every day why is he taking so long uh... he's rating five not one five major decisions that will probably be landmark decisions and he doesn't want them to be easily appealed and challenged. So he's got a lot of work on his plate. But I will bring you up to date. If you want to stay up to date with that or anything else in the Second Amendment from litigation to legislation or anything else in between, subscribe to this channel down below and I'll bring you that on a daily basis. Thank you guys for your time. I'll see you on the next one. Take care. with Jared by the way moved to his new home everything is settling in he's looks happier he's less tense of course you got enough to be intense about anyway at a regular basis doing what he's doing but much better this is my rifle there are many like it but this one is mine rifle is my best friend it is my life before God Oh, here you're not just singing of the fields or wild and free. Well, soon you'll know the ringing of the rifle from the tree. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands will prove no frightful. You may ride a good late speed, you may know it's turn to master Your forward march with speed, but you'll learn the back much faster When you meet our mountain boys and their leader, John, it starts Glad you make what little noise and always hit the mark Hold the rifle, hold the rifle In our hands we'll prove no strife No graves at home, back across the brine of water. A giddy must come as well as a tooth of slaughter. But if we the job must do, then the sooner it is begun. If Lyndon's figure hold the butt through, the quicker it will be done. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle. In our hands, we'll prove no to rifle. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle. In our hands, we'll prove no to rifle. If everybody out there, it is a beautiful, beautiful sunset this evening. Oh, of course you still were, but oh well. We'll all be dead before everybody was killed on the North American continent by the big fire that took place up there in the shingtan, Oregon, and the 50s. They don't tell you. They smoke. We're all gonna die. But anyway, and other than that... Anyway, break out the face masks, that's all I can say. As Edward pointed out, break out the face masks. That'll help you. Everybody will be calmed down. It's kind of like having a teddy bear break out the face mask. A teddy bear. Anyway, a couple of things here real quick. There were some questions over the last couple of days about handguns. And of course, Breda 92 was one of them, so that made me wonder, hmm. There for the last couple of years has been a lot of Beretta's hanging around for a pretty good price, but it's a cyclic thing. Guns are like that. There's been a there was a preponderance of the import foreign Beretta military models you might recall and also the knockoff American production by Beretta of America, whatever. And that includes the Beretta with the 94 slash the 92 and 40 caliber. The pistol actually was quite common there for a little bit, but it looks like it's dried up apparently because of interest. People bought them up and they're now out of the system. Classic Firearms is one of the companies that has a good pistol selection on a regular basis as you probably have noticed if you've been there. Classic Firearms, but also don't forget CDNN Sports. Now, they were traditionally, and have been traditionally known for magazines. So one of the other considerations here, if you're picking up any of the interesting arms that are out there, I don't care what it is, you want at least six magazines, at least six extra magazines per pistol, whatever you're gonna pick up. That's at least, preferably, especially if it's something like a Glock, you have no reason not to have a big pile of Glock mags. You can find deals and deals on Glock mags and magpul we make them for quite some time Same with the air 15s. Yeah, come on I would point out that some weapons like we mentioned though are just gonna bite you no matter what and while the HK pistols are interesting HK of course hates the American gun owner loves the police states everywhere But hates the American gun owner It has been a problem with them for a very long time, but they're pricey. HK mags are simply pricey. It's all there is to it. Sig is right there parallel with them, but Sig is not quite as much of an asshat when it comes to the American firearms owners, but there's a snobbery that's going on, I'd say. SIG, of course, is owned by the police state Feds. So you peasants, you can are allowed to have some of them, but it's a federal police state gun. Like HK, it's an international police state gun. With HK, why? Because they hate you. So that was one of the things I want to point out earlier about, well, if you had to trust me in these four guns. HKs would be my last choice simply for magazines, and that is the problem. In fact, right now Glock is the Gladius of the pistol category along with the 1911. And everybody means a lot. Well, the 1911 has been around for more than 100 years and there's 100 years worth of stuff laying around. And I run into 1911 mags everywhere. I mean everywhere. I don't think there is an estate sale that we've gone to where we haven't run into 1911 mags or parts. Mostly bags and ammunition, of course in mason jars. Okay, that's the most common thing in mason jars What's interesting about this is again the? With CDN sports, it's going to be a catch-as-catch can they do have cyclic pistol specials on some automatic handguns So you might want to take a look at what's out there. Steyr has a new little pistol, little utility 9mm that is hovering at about $200. And not a bad little gun at all, but it looks of it in the Glock family as far as the Glock idea. Polymer frame, obviously steel slide barrel. Combination as expected. It's just they've undone other bump lees in the mold for the pistol grip, etc., which is expected. Don't forget that there are the American guns daggers. We've mentioned many times the dagger line made by Palmetto Stairamary is fantastic. Again, it takes a lot of the Glock parts, so it's not totally proprietary. There are some proprietary parts. conform to whatever the restrictions are for manufacturing. But a lot of the perishable critical components are Glock fully interchangeable and magazines are one of them. So take advantage of that. That's an excellent reason. Again, it ain't the razor, it's the blades. The magazines are going to be the long haul first issue past ammunition. The other is spare parts. Now there again, Glocks are going to start wearing out. You start using them a lot. They're going to get beat up, shot up. They're going to get worn out. And there's not much to strip off and use, but there are parts. So remember that a weapon that is even battle damaged or shot up is to be carried back. In fact, there should be a whole program locally for recovery, automatic recovery, and then cycling back to the rear. or at least to the unit armor in your area and strip the wreckage for parts and go from there. You never know. But even if the gun was saved bent, think about this. Is the firing pin still intact in the pistol? Is the extractor still functional in the pistol? Even if it's worn like many of your other guns, if it's not broken, Then it's a part that you want to recover. What about all the screws, springs, even pistol grips? Or at least slab sides depending on the handgun? All that stuff needs to be recovered, bagged, and also here's another thing, tagged. The most common mistake made is mark the bag on the inside with a little slip of paper or a tag of something with a little pen work or pencil work. And pencil's great because pencil doesn't fade. Just something to think about there, but you want to make sure you also use a marker on the outside of the bag and you identify the parts. What is it? Is this for a 1911? Is this for an HK? Is this for a, you know, and by model number two? This is very important. We don't care about serial number piss on that garbage. It's just going to be relevant for anything. But most important is the identifying information so that when you're looking at an inventory, maybe you're not there. Somebody else can still keep working. I do this with automotive parts. How many times you go to yard sale, there's a whole pile of really brand new looking stuff that may be old inventory, but you don't know what it is. Sometimes you do, most of the time not, you'd have to look it up. Well, I make sure that when I have, because I have different vehicles in the little fleet, I make sure that I write down on the parts. I just picked up another set of spark plugs for the 2300CC Mustang Pinto engine. Okay, that we got. That's a 2.3 liter. No, no, 2300 cc sounds bigger, doesn't it? Back in the day, that's how you, they were posted. But anyway, I also, I write down all the information. What engine is for, what vehicle it's for. And that way it's on more than one surface area, so if the box gets messed up, you still can figure out what it is. And the same with oil filters. Anything that goes as a part, a perishable part. Brake pads, just got another set of brake pads for the Silverados. Just to make sure I had another set, I'm going to get a whole bunch of Suburbans. The tacticals then for that reason, brakes front and rear always have extra sets. At least one complete set always on hand. Ideally a set for each vehicle already purchased. Patiently one set at a time and put in they actually carry those with the vehicle. Those are part of the onboard that sticks with it. That way there's no mistake. But I also write down what's in that box. It's an auto light or it's a Schmidlap or it's a Stevens or it's a, yeah, and it's a, right on it, exactly what it's for. What year, you know, what year production and needless to say, you know, make model year. Simple, easy to understand. And if necessary, engine, if it's motor components. Now, another thing, most everything, there's not a whole lot under the hood and not as much as there used to be that you could really do in a pinch. One of the things in the past would be to have spare carburetors. It's fuel injection now, so it's a different world there as far as the spare parts are much more intricate, and there's a greater number that would be needed. But still recovering spares off of wrecks is a priority. Don't let anything go to waste. Don't just chuck it. It's a fortune to replace. And new vehicles, I don't think I mentioned this on the air, but let me just give you a heads up. Ford and I don't know if this is their bigger heavy truck or if it's the just a regular Traditional civilian pickup truck heavy truck that they're going to here, but the new transmission is a No parts available transmission that's going into the you know underneath your feet They will not sell spare parts. They've argued that it's impossible for you to figure out how to fix it Although, as the mechanic said, it's just gears. So this is literally a throwaway transmission that costs an outrageous amount of money. And needless to say, you have to buy an all brand new transmission or, oh, you have to have a like a four or $5 million machine to be able to do any work on it, if that's at all possible. So of course, the average, even the average mechanic is not going to have that, needless to say. That's an example of how bad things are going to get with big stuff. So again, keeping the older equipment running, it's not that hard. The basics are what you need to be concerned with. And to be quite honest, one of the other things about your weapons platforms or rolling platforms, I put up with that for years and skimp by tires. But the one thing that we spend money on our tires right now. because it's kind of like decent boots or shoes of some kind. You got to keep your feet covered. Tires, if you're running on some skins, get into something else. I don't care if you go to Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist and track down somebody else's less used tires. But you need to get off that right away because if you have to use your vehicle to its optimal performance range or if you have to use it as a bug out vehicle. The last thing you need is to be changing a tire every so many miles or something happens and you know how it's going to work. That tire that probably should have been changed, you didn't and that's what gets you into a bad situation in the middle of the wrong place at the right time. So spend the money on tires. Also, the next thing logically are brakes. If you can't stop, you're in trouble. Of course, stopping is not as much of a problem as going. But common sense here is to make sure that the vehicle will continue to roll down the road. And you know, the starting, going, stopping phase is kind of nice. The cost on brake pads right now for certain years of vehicles isn't so extreme, but you need to invest in it. Go ahead, caller. Hey, yeah, just real quick on tires. For all the guys with trucks, a lot of you guys probably already know, but if you could find on Marketplace or Craigslist, You know, tires that are 10 ply, you could run those suckers until bald, you know, until it's a racing slip pretty much and you're good to go, you know, you get a lot more miles out of that. Absolutely. And again, if you look, there's a lot of stuff laying around. People have bought another tire they were talked into. And what's really cool is they were smart enough not to get rid of the originals because they didn't keep them around as either a spare. But as is always the case, they sell the vehicle. Well, now they got the tires and the tires don't apply to anything. So you will run into some really great deals that way. But otherwise, if you can't do that, find the best, you know, what you can find that matches your wallet. and still better quality and spend that on the tires. That way you don't have to worry at working at the optimal performance ranges, you know, and speed with the vehicle about anything boo-booing on you. Okay? Still, stuff can still fall off the vehicle. Stuff happens. But the tires, that's one of those things that when the tires get tired on a vehicle we have here, none of the tires I take off get thrown away. I've got a couple of stacks of, for instance, tires for the Silverado and a couple of stacks of tires for the Suburbans. And in some cases, complete sets. Now, part of that's because I was lucky and I made a deal in one situation where I was able to take rims and everything off, put the other set on. And I've got a complete set of heavy truck tires on rims ready to go. that gives me four spares beyond what I normally have. Is that worthwhile? Oh, hell yes. Obviously, if you know what he's been talking about on preaching on the program here for decades, then it makes sense. But the other thing here too is military traditionally runs off a rating system with batteries and with tires. And the military in a wartime situation, you know, they're showing you what the logistics have to be like, for instance, for the Ukraine. Guys, that's a shooting war with two sides genuinely slugging it out now for a year. Do you know what the tire expenditure in Ukraine has been by itself? You know, everybody always brags up the tank and the APC. Look at that rifle. Those are exciting. But tires require an entire separate group of people that do nothing but tire maintenance. How many APCs do they have in service? And here's a real bugger. How many different vehicles do they have in service? You know, everybody always talks about it's going to be this perfect war where everything is this way, this way, and this way. Well, you want to see the way wars turn out. Look at the crap with the Ukraine. Look at the hodgepodge of material on the battlefield. The only ones that really were, well they were doing well probably early on because it was all Russian standards. So for instance with the wheeled vehicles, BTR 60, BTR 70, BTR 90, okay, BTR 80s also. But in addition to the eight wheeled APCs, they've got tracked BMPs. and other vehicles of that Ilk yet type from different windows of the Cold War or post Cold War era. Now then you throw in all the American equipment. There's the Yak Bradleys, the ones that were made by Egypt. I don't know if you've noticed this. There's a bunch of Bradleys rolling around. They're not the Dutch Bradleys. They do have those. They're not really Bradleys. They're the Bradley prototype that was made on the M113, it was actually the proposition of rather than brying the Bradley, well the Dutch built them. It's an M113 with a Bradley type chassis. It's just shorter because it's appropriate for the M113 chassis. Well, that means M113 tracks have to be in there. But oh, wait a minute, they also have Bradley's. Oh, but wait a minute, they also have about a dozen other American pattern throwaway or castaway police state vehicles that we used for the occupation of Iraq. And every variation that the Brits have and every variation of Germans through a bunch of stuff in there. It's just like with the tanks, you've got, you know, you do have some Abrams, but they don't seem to want to put them forward or they never got them. Maybe it's a complete lie. Hell, the cartel will have those Abrams probably next month. But you know, because you know, the Liering's tanks, the kosher mafia that runs Washington, DC, they're arming everybody else to kill us. But you've got how many different tank variants in each one of those is a parts inventory. Now the only thing that would be a bit of a blessing is the window of activity like the leopards, leopard twos, the Abrams, the Leclercs. I think they got some Leclerc, the French gave them some. Maybe they did, maybe they did not. Have to look at that one. And they got the Brit tanks, is that they're NATO. So there are certain subsystems that were purchased as cooperative agreements. But that's few and far between. Most all of these systems require, they're as bad as aircraft, especially in the most modern vehicles. They're as bad as having a jet airplane in that there are so many stupid subsystems that are so proprietary with no possible discovery of spare parts out of any inventory anywhere. It has to be made by N4. And that's as bad as the tires. I mean, you think about it. If you look, you'll notice there were a series of videos done here recently, going over some of the post-battlefield areas. Well, if you look, you'll notice that, for instance, the turrets are missing from some of the tanks. Did you notice that? And they're not laying off to the side. You notice how the back hatches have been taken off of some of the vehicles? or in some cases the tracks are already gone. There's a hole there and the holes may or may not have a turret and sometimes even the gun mantlet has completely been pulled which means that the acid of the vehicle probably took a hit but the gun mantlet, the gun and the mantlet that holds it probably was intact and that's modular. You can pull it out like a tooth. So the recovery units have already been out there stripping what they could to take back to other vehicles that had other damage and take part A, part B and make vehicle C, which is what they've been doing. But tires, tires. Now, tires are a problem. When the Great Depression took place, guys, people didn't buy tires. They bought tire patch and they bought intertubes. And they bought a lot. They bought whatever intertubes they could find because there were hardly any available. During World War II, we all forget about something that is a reality, is tire rationing. The moment we got into World War II, they rationed everything here. Now, if you were in the Jewish black market, kosher mafia could steal anything from the government and sell it off under the table to all of us peasants whenever they wanted to. Of course, that's what the purpose behind half of these operations are. so that the criminal combined, OYG, can get in on the money bags cam from all directions, including making the war itself. But what's important here is tire rationing. Don't think they are already planning on doing that right now? Hell, yes they are. So you all need to be prepared for and ready to deal with that particular issue. which means retaining what you've got now because a tire that holds air is better than no tire. And a combination of things, if we get into a battlefield environment on American soil sooner rather than later, is every tire will be precious. And even after it is, here's what's funny. I've seen tire depots. I used to buy all this stuff from the government. And of course, I was in the military too, so I see enough of that. But a category C tire guys can have a hole in it the size of your thumb. Now it can have a hole in it the size of a plumb and it's considered a category C tire. So what does that tell you about something? The tire might, they might make the effort to repair it. They might figure out how to make it work. There are bonding panels and machinery that they used to have. I don't even know if they still have it. But it would make sense that they would, because do you know what the price of a wheel, just a tire, not with a rim, what's the cost of a tire for a striker? And how many times do you think a striker is going to be shot at? Well, oh, it's not going to be shot at, because it's a magic American vehicle, and they always shoot at everybody else, but they don't get shot at. Well, that's if you're in the police state warning, and there we lost a lot of people to IEDs. So instead, you're in a war against a force that has Class A equipment just like your Class A equipment and they can put holes in you the same way. So what do you think, again, what do you think the logistics nightmare is for supporting a wheeled mechanized unit or a track mechanized unit? Tires, remember, it's the tennis shoe that vehicles run on and without them, vehicles don't go anywhere. They just sit there and stare at you and make great fortifications. Okay, these call, what do they call them? Oh, come on. Boiling pot bunkers. I think that was one of the terms that they use, boiling pot bunker. You take a knocked out tank and use it as a fortification, reinforce it with some sandbags. And it's just a big steel bucket. Of course, if somebody lobs something in there, the steel bucket gets cleaned out of human flesh again. you know, somebody else occupies it. And everybody took their turn in certain positions. Stalingrad, they had this happen. Kev, any place where there's any kind of, you know, city or urban or village fighting, tanks all of a sudden become a nice big mobile chunk of metal. It still does a good job of stopping bullets, even if it didn't stop that 88 or that 85 or 76.2 or whatever happened to be going one way or another. Another thing here real quick is again also POL products and I'm going to remind you because I just ran into this the other day. POL products for what? Cars? Yep, for petroleum oil lubricant products for vehicles but what's the price of a quart of Pennzoil right now? Do you know? Go look it up when we're done with the program here. One quart of Pennzoil 10W30, what does it cost? If you go to a bunch of these yard sales, and I just got somebody at a resale shop here, they're three quarters and maybe seven eighths of a quart of oil. Well, it's been opened. Well, oil doesn't go bad, okay, first of all. But I pay a dollar a quart for a slightly used quart of oil, even if it was a half a quart of oil, a pint. I pay a dollar for it, it's worth it. Go take a look at what the price of a quart of Penn's Oil or whatever name brand, take your pick, it wouldn't make any difference. No name brand, you can get a little cheaper. Okay, but why would I want it? Well, obviously for what it's intended, but also let's not forget. Petroleum oil and lubricant products of all type will be useful for weapons no matter what. You mean you'd use automotive oil on a firearm? Well, sure, but I'm not gonna bathe it in oil. I'm going to follow the instructions in using a drop of lubricant where I need to, literally a dropper, where you take a little piece of, like a pin, stick it in, have the drop apply to the end of the pin, weigh it down to the metal and just run it across until it's applied and then wipe that into the metal surface area. to create an air barrier to prevent oxidation. Yes, I will use automotive oil or anything else, any other grease as I can get my hands on. But the big thing is that I need the oil in the first place. So I highly recommend that you pay attention to what's going on because POL, Patron Model, and lubricant products across the board are already stupid priced because of the evaluation of the currency, slash what everybody calls inflation. This is going to continue to get worse even though sadly enough again once the oil is produced it'd be good for an indefinite period of time and we can produce all the oil we need but we're not. So we're screwed with an artificial but yet very real shortage when the time comes. So this is something you right now you need to be looking at greases, oils or whatever your favorite lubricants are. If you want to spend some money If you got a certain particular, you know, Schmidlab 4000 ultra graphite dry lubricant for your NR15, fantastic, run with it. But I would recommend that you buy more. Another thing real quick, it ain't the razor, it's the blades. We talked about rebuilding magazines a little bit. I was talking about some of the tricks or things that are, there are some good videos out there on what ifs that are being done to help people think ahead. about magazines, if they get shot, beat up, can you recover them? Yes. Can you do a better job than they did in some of the videos? Yes. Be creative. But one of the other things you're going to need is to go along with that oil, our maintenance tools. Don't throw away your old toothbrushes. If you're going to decide, I don't like this toothbrush, then needless to say, you're probably already using it for cleaning of something. Take it over and put it into your weapons maintenance box. Go put it in with your rags and patches and everything else. Now, if all else fails, although a dollar tree used to be, you could get eight or ten toothbrushes for a dollar when it was dollar tree, then it was eight, then it was six. Now, there's fewer, but Still worth it to pick up extra toothbrushes for use with no weapons maintenance and Also pay attention to the resale shops and these and the rummage sales for the summer right now This is where I'm really making killings Watch for all of the you know, basic maintenance items like that. I picked up a set of nylon weapons picks the other day The same ones that are in the store for about $15, $16. It was a complete set. It's got a pick on either end. They have different tapers and angles and hooks and gouges. Some are kind of straight but off by 15 degrees. These are priceless for getting into all those nooks and crannies we've been talking about on your weapons for maintenance. And the neat thing about the nylon ones is remember the nylon wears out, not the gun part. It'll wear the carbon off, but it won't wear out your pistol or your rifle or your shotgun. So these are a good investment if you run into anything like that. Many of the little dental pick and dental tooth maintenance that are the plastic models, yeah, they're cheap, but they're also useful in the same way. So if you see something like that where somebody's getting rid of a bunch of them, collect them all up. Zip-lock, bag them, put them over with all that basic weapons maintenance. When you got a bunch of people sitting down, 8, 9, 10, 20 at a time, you're going to need spares because you don't have enough. Everybody trying to do maintenance constantly should be, is a good idea, but you're going to get certain points. It's okay, we're sitting down, we're all together, we got some POL to work with, petroleum oil and lubricant product. We're going to be doing weapons maintenance at this particular point while we're resting. So congratulations. First we check the weapons, we check our mags, load your mags, top off with the ammunition that our host here has, check your equipment, then you can settle it and rest. Make sure you've topped up all of your gear, your water and everything, so that something kicks off and ready to leave. Just how it works.
