And promise to protect this land Let your stars and stripes show all the world American pride And forever show the world you stand for freedom American pride From caisson to the caissons Saratoga to Lexington Fly on, pass, never run It's freedom for everyone A Plegendal Regents to the Flag Are the best country in this world A Plegendal Regents to the Flag May only freedoms, winds and furl A Plegendal Regents to the Flag Many times been tried and true A Plegendal Regents to the Flag As blood red, white and blue I'd show all the world I'd never show the world You stand for freedom forever show the world This is God's kingdom forever show the world American The mist with a flintlock in 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 fought a rebel secure our liberty We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny for future generations this legacy we gave in this delay 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, 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 shit. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize family farms 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 won't 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 freedom 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 in each God-given right, and pray to God, get the torture freedom burning bright. As Iowoki 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 trample each God given right we only watching tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he thought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Oh the land of the fear of the drums afternoon ladies and gentlemen, this is the Hour of the intelligence report. I'm our kirky one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west southeast east and ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com libertytreeradio.org And of course we are on satellite. Want to say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there. No matter what body of water you're on. And thank you for rebroadcasting both digital and analog. We're going to be reading about the communications technologies both inside and outside the United States 97.5 FM micro FM rebroadcasting building bigger and better. A lot more of the sisters are in place even as we speak. Got a letter yesterday so we'll appreciate that. Anyway, it is Friday. Yeah, it's Friday. It's been Friday all day. It has been hot here in the bottom of the state of Michigan. Big, tumultuous clouds. It looks like it wants to rain, but in between the big, tumultuous clouds are blue sky. So it's been quite a mix. And warm because we've got that fantastic lensing effect with the humidity going along with it. Classic Michigan. Middle of the summer weather, this is like everything and any other season I grew up with, going back when I was tiny. So anyway, it is Friday. It is Cinco de Amo de Señora, Señoritas de Señora. It is a day when you and all of your family members should find whatever resources you have, go to a store, and you need to pick up a munition for your pistola or your shotgun. And of course, for your very superior rifle, with grande superior. Anyway, it is also Quartermaster Friday. And it is the 26th of July, 16th year of Open Obvious and In Your Face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist. Occupation of America with the KE 2024 Old Earth Calendar. Give it all to his God Captain! And 2024, Battle for the Republic Book 3, A Dark Anniversary. And again, the printer. Just torpedoed, shipped as of this afternoon. I got the note. As of this afternoon, we have for our friends out in Arkansas, the entire trainer batch. This is about 680 SOP manuals. It was a comparable number, an equal number of the anti-arbor manuals. I think they rounded up. You're going to find more in there than you need, just in case, because everybody always miscalculates. 28 of the rifle marksmanship class packets, that's 20 of the range books along with one instructor's manual per. So that's a classroom that can be established in many, many different locations simultaneously. We can expedite more range books. I was told to mention that, that they've got a specific project that does nothing but the range books, the Colonial Marine Militia range books, because they are a perishable. They are a right in text. You're going to use them as your log book for range operations with a particular rifle. You are going to need more if you're going to use more than one weapon at different times. So again, information is in the contact package. I wanted to get rid of the middleman thing here and expedite this. So for our friends in our Kansas, you guys are covered. Now that means all the rest of you were hanging out in the breeze. It's that simple. What we did is we figured one state, get it done. For this particular order, they already reordered again and we can't do any more than we've just done. I'm just saying that now so it gets to you sooner because there's not going to be anybody hemming and hawing or whining or complaining. We're doing the best we can. We actually have another commercial printer in another location that wants to pick up doing the SOP manuals. We could use several thousands of them. And that's the problem. So we're doing it. Everybody's getting some. I just put it that way. You're going to get a percentage. Everybody's getting some. Now, the other thing is we just had a request from West Virginia. And I will take care of that. In fact, I think I can take care of that myself. That's going to expand very, very quickly too. Although West Virginia has a very fine and large militia force to begin with. I've spoken there many, many, many times out in the middle of the backwoods. I mean, up the ridge, around the corner, two hours to get off the two-track. Walking uphill for about a good hour and there's the base camp. And we had a lot of fun every time we've been up there. Even when the bar showed up and that actually happened on occasion. Especially when we were speaking there in the winter, or actually early winter. It wasn't quite winter, but we got snow the night that we were there at that facility. And about 2,000 people showed up for that particular back in the ridge FTX combination of speaking events was pretty good. Anyway, and saying hi to all our friends in West Virginia in the process. Now let's see it is hold on here. I got to switch something else off It's not interfering with anything else. We're doing here One of the other things here real quick guys I'm gonna remind you again watch for people who you have there in the family that are ill Maybe in you know home care If you've got people that are even in hospice, there's a lot of material and equipment that can be recovered. They can't take it back. The most common mistake everybody makes is they give you all this stuff, a lot of it, they just pile it on because the insurance company pays for it. That's why that happens. Four by four pads, gauze, roll gauze, wipes, take a pic, everything anything you think of. Everything that you can ask for it, collect it and bag and box it up. Can it up. Your best bet, five gallon pails are the quickest, easiest way to come up with a medical solution for storing the medical items because it'll keep them high and dry. Get yourself a decent lid from go to Menards or go to Maynard's or Home Death Spot or Lou's, you know, Lowe's, you know, take your pick and grab their pails. That's good enough. Put a garbage bag liner inside and pack everything in there to the best of your ability. Try not to crush or compromise packaging and however many you need, take care of it that way. But I highly recommend doing this because there's tonnage to be had. And I say tonnage, I mean tonnage. So let's not hesitate or wait. Let's get that as quickly as we can into the list of things to do. Another thing, as was mentioned, most people rent the oxygen machines, but every once in a while, one of our friends over in Kalamazoo just passed off an oxygen producing machine, a Kara transportable one, a satchel type, and it's priceless. So if you've got anything like that you run into, somebody asked me, should I grab it? Yes, you grab it. oxygen, I was thinking about this the other day, especially with major trauma injuries, something that we usually can't get. But remember, if you can stop blood loss, you're now short blood, and the body is trying to compensate accordingly. Whatever is carrying oxygen better be assisted. So oxygen assist is always a priority, especially when we have a major trauma casualty with blood loss. Another thing there real quick is intravenous inbound or at least get them to drink what you can before they realize that they don't really want to. Or they'll put it in their mind not to follow orders. When people are injured, you can pretty well get them to do whatever needs to be done. If you can get fluids into a person any way after major blood loss, it will make a difference. Preferably simple straight water. Yeah, sugar water will work, you know, with sugar in it, etcetera. Simply because you're trying to put fluids, Gatorade is fantastic. Just not really the most common thing, but you know, any of the workout and hot weather drinks like that. The important thing is get fluids back into the system no matter what. And at a certain point they won't, okay, with regard to oral. But anything that you can do is going to make a difference because remember we've probably got more than one casualty. So if we can minimize the expense on one, we can maximize on the other 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 that we might still have to take care of. So keep that in mind. Also, Cinco di Amo Day. Right now, over at CenterFireSystems.com, guys, you need to go through there and look to see what they got in the way of deals. They did a couple of buyouts on some stores, as I've mentioned, and they do have some bag and box deals at CenterFireSystems.com for ammunition. One of the things that I thought was rather interesting is that they, it may be gone, because if anybody saw it, they grabbed it. 32 long, Colt long. Colt, when you see 32 Colt or 38 Colt, when Smith and Wesson and Colt were competing in the early days, Colt went with a slightly larger projectile diameter. So there is a reason for it saying 38 Smith and Wesson or S&W and the other one saying 38 Colt Revolver. If you see that on ammunition, The Colt ammunition specifically is designed for the, it'll of course improve accuracy simply because it is a proper bullet diameter typically. Although it can be a jacketed bullet in the earlier days, a lot of it was lead needless to say, then they, you know, jacket progressively took over. But if it's a Colt case, another thing, anybody who's got Colts out there, to find Colt ammunition, Colt stamped ammunition, Kind of nice and needless to say you're putting the right round to the right gun now they will work either way The one is going to increase pressure a little bit But if it's led it's gonna sluice on through the way it's supposed to amazingly enough because it can't be that extreme It isn't but we don't want to put over too much stress and wear and tear on top top break or earlier Conventional side grain type revolvers trust me So we want to keep everything at factory middle ground factory standard always For the older weapons don't try to play dirty hairy with any of them. They're built for a particular pressure range There's a lot of top break revolvers out there. They work. They don't want to get shot by them There's a lot of people died those kind of hands of those guns. They're no not as fast They're the reason in most cases that body armor was originally made because there were a lot of 32 pocket pistols 380 pocket pistols 38 pocket pistols out there with a lead projectile Standard threat level 2 body armor work just fine But as more and more people move towards bigger bigger bores and you know more firepower than level 3 and then progressively now we have even level 4 rifle and 4 plus rifle or level 5 technically So the stuff's out there But the ammunition if you run into it a lot of times in grab boxes you want to sort everything out and you want to pay attention Because some of that stuff is worth more money you take that Slide it off of the inventory Take it to a gun show and find a guy who has an interest and amazingly enough You will find that you can get a little more money For what it is that you picked up and maybe even pay for all the other stuff that you kept There's a lot of different rounds 32 20 44 40 38 40 which is kind of tough right now I used to be find that laying around a lot more but all of these original lever gun Winchester lever gun combination pistol cartridges. They were designed to be saddle rifle and pistol calibers 3840. We'll get shot by that. Basically it's 45 long Colt or it's in the same category. 3840 and 4440 are basically in the same range as say 45 long Colt which is just a smidgen under 44 Magnum. Depending on the year of production and because eventually they loaded up 45 long Colt then they loaded it back down. So Again, these are not bad rounds. It's just not most likely the weapon you're going to be carrying in the field for what's coming. But if you got them, the other thing is you definitely want ammunition for each of those weapons. Back in the day, the Liber Action Model 73 in a pistol caliber, that was an assault rifle. How many rounds do you think you could carry, say, just like I mentioned, 32-20, which is about the length of a .38 special case in a Model 73 full-length rifle? That was about anywhere from, depending on the magazine, because with Winchester, actually we printed the Winchester books, so I got a chance to read all this decades ago. But you could custom order whatever magazine you wanted. Now they did offer a stock mag, they offered a standard factory magazine, but they also offered an extended standard factory magazine, almost to the end of the barrel. So you're looking at 18 rounds of bang, bang, bang, you know, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and you just keep right on going and you don't see to run out. And remember back in the day, single shot rifles are more common. Still, there was lots of leftover stuff from the Civil War. So you're looking at cap and ball, single muzzle loading rifles. which progressively were converted in many cases like to the Springfield trap door with the military and those ended up in private hands but still single shot. Now is that little pistol cartridge or that short cartridge as powerful as that 45-70? Nope. Nope, not at all. It's a light rifle or carbine caliber. But it did a fine job when you had Or look there's a gringo the banditos come with me whenever a gaggle would charge you Being able to keep shooting and not worrying about reloading right away Meant that more people had bullets in them and the more people have bullets in them less likely They're ambitious to proceed forward Just how it works Now they might still have some fight in them, but they'll think twice because when they do back up and regroup, you're reloading. And now they know exactly what's coming at them when they try the second time. Hmm, they lost Juan and Wergay and K'epay and Jesus. Wait a minute, we lost a whole bunch of people. Maybe it's Ben Deere so we should try to find someone else who is much more dangerous than the gringo with the Model 73. See? So anyway, whoa, whoa, whoa. As it is, Center Fire Systems does have a couple of goodbyes that are still in stock. I know that they've been running out of this stuff. They've been making some really good deals with some of these companies going out of business. Also, they do have some bundle deals at Center Fire Systems, Quartermaster Friday, and again, Cinco di Amo Day. So you might want to go check that out. The bundle deals include a number of AK items. Now, let me comment on one thing that's in there. There is a set of four. Brand-new unissued. I believe there you go Polymer AR AK 47 thumbhole stock units This is the buttstock and the pistol group. I love those I really do I actually liked when the government made those they really saved us a lot of trouble because we were just going to start building a Thumbhole baby dragon off stock for the a can the you know for you to use it on the RPK length barrels and make a little monk baby dragon off, right and But when they made the thumbhole stocks, all of a sudden we had something we could use that was pretty much comparable. And some of the stuff made in Eastern Europe at the time looked so close to the Dragon of stock that, hey, that was fine. That'll work. Well, there's some of this stuff still left over, and this is 2024. That was back in the 90s. Do the math. And what's neat about these things are only four for $10. Now, if somebody's going to go, oh, Mark, why would I want that? Oh, I don't know. What stock breaks on your AK? What are you going to do? Now, I'm going to fix it. Yes, you may, but as a real quick solution, you wheel off the pistol grip, you take out the chunky stunk piece of wood that broke off inside the retainer for the beaver board stock. You take this stock, apply it, screw it down, everything's done. Took very little time. And if you want to fix everything back up, now you've got, you've bought time to do it. What I like about this is that these particular thumb hole stocks can be pretty well adapted to any standard stock AK pattern rifle that's out there. Why? Because they're plastic! And because they're plastic, you can do more to fiddle with them and since they're only $2.50 a piece, you won't care what you do to them. Hell, at a given point, these things will even become collectible. That's just really stupid. It's the way things work. It's like, remember those heady days when they had the rifle band and you had to have the thumb hole stock and how rare those are? And they are going to be rare because everybody took them off and a lot of people just chucked them. Seriously. So contrary to what you might think, it's just like, well, the Chinese AKs, they're never going to be worth much. We only paid $125 for them. Yeah. How much is a Polytech AK out of the box worth right now? As Homer would say. four of these thumb hole stock sets, which includes both the pistol grip assembly and the buck stock, because they're all one piece and they're cast polymer. So if you have to cobble them to make it work on a rifle that has damage and you don't have any spares, or you've even run out of them, then run with this for a little bit. Now, here's another thing. Would I get rid of the beaver board stock that I had on the AK? Nope, pick the broken stock up. Why? Because we're going to shave her down and put her right back in the rifle. won't that make for a short stock? Yes it will. But a buttstock is better than no buttstock and making sense something from scratch is an awful lot of trouble and since you have most all the finish done right there, amazingly enough you'd be surprised how quickly you can get that right back online. After you've got a chance to get it back to the armor in the meantime you put that thumb hole stock on Might even like keeping it right there figure out what the hell it's a little lighter. It's out of the way pretty well straightforward bang bang bang bang See how that works But the and again witness somebody's asking me would you save the old little small piece and put it back together? I don't know you could because a lot of the make a stocks are laminate stocks, but If you were in a pinch, and since a lot of people like short stock or they prefer folding type weapon and half the time they're liking to blaze, spray and pray, you do like we did years ago with the 12K shotguns where they cut, instead of cutting the barrel down, you put the barrel at 20 inches where you'll, that's pretty well average, and then you cut the buff stock down by a couple of inches, up to three or four. What this did is kept the overall length within specifications so they couldn't say that it was in violation. But it made for a handy shotgun length. Now it still has a buttstock on it, but it just doesn't have as much of a buttstock on it. So the AK you could work the same way. You could clean up the area that broke, taper it a little bit so it'll fit, and you're going to have to trim it until it fits into the knock point for the buttstock. and then bolt that into place, we normally would. Congratulations, you're done. But that's gonna take more work. And for a quick change out, the armor is gonna try and get rifles back in the field fast. A handful of these, well, I actually would do, what I've done is I bought about 20 of those, and they go into a footlocker with a lot of other spare AK parts that are for fixing everything from furniture to replacing parts in general. And the big thing is keeping track of what is what, mark them. Always mark everything. Because your armor is kit, it's got to be user friendly. Know who's who in the zoo, what it belongs to as far as the parts go. So again, an idea. There's many, many other AK items there. There's a whole bunch of set me items there that are in bundles. One of the things slings are another item. And for those of you that don't have enough slings for all the weapons you got, They used to be dime items, but since the 90s with the devaluation of the currency, they're now dollar items. They used to be a 25 cent item, now they're a $2 item. Just how it works. But they're still worth it. Their price is right, they're better made than most of what's out here that's privately in the circulation that people get off of China's support circles. A step up is still a step up, even if it's a little older. So take advantage of that. Next. Oh, how about next this. We're at the bottom of the hour. You're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. It is Friday. It is the 26th of July. And if I've lost a day or gained a day in reality, I'm not sure where I am. Oh, well, I can believe that. We have been ultra busy since the incident a couple of weekends ago, and I'm sure this one's going to be no different. Everybody has found religiosity with regard to getting motivated to realize that, well hell, if they'll shoot at him, they'll shoot at us. Which everybody kind of thought would happen, but nobody could accept it and put their, wrap their brain around it until it did happen. So here's the thing. Most all of the training sites are at capacity this weekend. In fact, if you're at the training site with advanced party or you're with standard party groups, You can see that the numbers are quite a bit higher right now because we're putting people in places we haven't before. Now, we still have to maintain operational security with regard to physical control of the site, overhead observations, security, and precautions are taken constantly. Remember, follow the instructions of the MP units that are there. The MP personnel are telling you to park a vehicle in a place. There is a reason. It's not just ground cover, it's overhead cover. Also, you guys notice we're playing with some of the camouflage nets right now, and there's a reason because we've always had them, but we're starting to employ them as they should be now. So that's one of the other things that's being stepped up very, very quickly here. Also, recommendation, if you are training this weekend at The rustics and or Fort Benning, Michigan, Fort Benning does not have water. We have a few in place wells now, but we do not have water production that is in sufficient quantity for the number of people that are camping on site and we prefer to always have a reserve. We're always ready to fight. And because of that, we need to make sure we have water reserves. So here's a recommendation. If you're going to be training this weekend, for that matter, any of the other facilities, if you want to help out, one of the things you can do is buy a cheap dollar store flat of cheapie packed water. That's one thing. Although you could do that anyway, just to bring more water along because that's the next recommendation. Bring more water with you. Potable water is especially critical. Use it warm or cold. You'll be able to again refresh and again rehydrate. You get into a shooting conflict any time, and it can happen any time now. And what you got is all you got. So I highly recommend that you beef up since look at the weather out there, take a look at the conditions. We don't have any rain really on the horizon as far as predictions, but we don't count on that. This is Michigan. But fact of the matter is it's hot. You're going to get dry fast. That means you start to miscalculate. We can't afford that. So bring more water with you. And if you can, and this is something again, why I'm asking you to buy those cheap flats, everybody can get them at any store on the planet, even Dollar Tree. If you can see it in your heart to leave the water at the facilities. We don't usually do that, but in this case, considering how things are escalating. I'm going to ask that if you would. If you're a militia commander, you have a bunch of people that have brought water when you're leaving. Not until you leave. Everything should stay with you until you leave. But if you leave, if you could, go to Quartermaster, go to the dietician's entrance, and at the looting dock, drop off the water you have left over that's maybe by the flat. The thing is, 24 bottles to a tray. I haven't really counted that. I haven't thought about that. But if you can see in your heart to donate that water, we'd appreciate it. That would be a way for us to build up a tactical reserve in each site. We already have food built up that way. We do have bulk water, but individually, serve water like that where you can hand it out fast. Here, go, here, go, here, go, or drop a flat into an area. It's very convenient, but it also makes it quick to divvy out. You don't have to line up Phil Cantines. We do that enough as it is, but we need more help in the other areas. So pitch in that way. Now, bottom of the hour break, Friday. And with all the drivel, we've had Nut and Yahoo, Nut and Honey, the parasite, sucked over here telling us how we all need to be ashamed because we're not dying fast enough. Why aren't you, Goyem, putting yourself in front of the Iranians in between the Israelis and the Iranians and why aren't you sending your children to die overseas? How dare you? How dare you fail the kosher mafia and the small hat wearers? Well, I'll tell you what, he can piss off, but. Let's do this. How about use propaganda? That'll be our first piece of music because everything that that piece of trash has been spewing from his face is nothing. But I want money propaganda. That's all that little pudgy, dirty whores here for is to wag his ninkus in your face in America and demand more of your money. Okay, so propaganda by abuse. Acoustic would really be great. I don't think we played the acoustic one in a while. Acoustic. It always sounds like, hmm, what is that? Is that foreign? Well, as a matter of fact, sir, it is. Acoustic. Acoustic. How would you say it? You rolled by the strings. If you haven't checked out the band, very politically astute. They are cognizant of the situation. They've done some really phenomenal music over the years. Wide spectrum, by the way, too. For all of you who haven't actually checked them out, you probably should. They're over many of their videos over on YouTube. Somebody's posted a bunch of them over on Rumble, I believe, too, if you get a chance to check that out. Next, because we're going to get at least two pieces in here, and I'm going to get rid of another one of our requests this way, too. Oh, it's a little quiet piece. The first one that came up on the list, or forgive me, I'm pulling two different lists up here, right across the river, Dire Straits. I'll tell you what, that's a tough one. Ed's probably going to have to turn the volume up a little bit, but let's try it. Let's see what happens. If you've never heard this song before, This is part of the digression process of the Brothers in Arms album. If you've never listened to Brothers in Arms and paid attention, if you go from the front to the back, you go basically from the top of the North of the North American continent, or I should say from North America to Central to South America, progressively from one end to the other. You go from money to nothing and walk a life, you know, baseball. Of course, that was the theme they used for the videos. And then it gets darker and it gets more... Here we go. Because we're going to cross that river now. For mg.com, just the river from the flip side of the original music. I would point out that artists always build albums in a particular way. And if you go listen to that album again, if you haven't done it in a long time, everybody loves the bumpy piece, you know, the bubbly pieces like Money for Nothing, which by the way, to me has always been an armor song. That is actually, that is the most kick butt. Track song that you know it's in the top 10 as far as something to throw in that is just kind of like Instrumentation doesn't mean you're missing what the words are money for nothing and your chicks for free don't know how many chicks out there in your tank, but Anyway, it's the idea that the music is dynamic and if you listen and you start it's really kind of high But then it gets kind of quiet There's a few dark spots in the first part of the album and then you go to war so to speak And if you go step by step through the music and think about it as if you were at the top of the North and South American continent and working your way down You ever notice that maybe you haven't hopefully I made you think about it now You're gonna have to go back and look at the album and so I check it out because you might have it on the rack somewhere If you don't you should Never throw your music away people don't let somebody talk you to that stupid crap never never never throw your music away I can't emphasize that enough. Half the problem we got is people have no touch with any history or their own epic experience on this planet. Music is part of that. Don't ever let anybody convince you to get rid of your tunes, so to speak. Make sure you keep them, retain them, and also keep a machine or a few machines around to make sure you can run it no matter what it is. You spend thousands of dollars on CDs and then you're going to throw them away? No, stupid, that is. That was money. Calculate how much money most people spent on CDs alone. And CDs are not difficult to store, but all you have to do is have some fool start yapping some BS in some stupid rag-ass magazine and all of a sudden, oh, it's not Vogue to have the CDs. I got to get rid of them because some asshat that I don't know. It told me I need to get rid of my stuff. So they can sell you the next batch of stuff. And nowadays you don't get anything for it because it's all off of the Ither world and well maybe someday all of a sudden they hit a switch you can't play your music anymore because they won't let you because it's banned now and it's banned with the flick of a switch and some panty waste purple haired fruit loop queer thinking that they don't like what you listen to because that's exactly how it's going to work if you don't see the writing on the wall you should I hear I heard about his collar jump in there please yeah I knew a kid kid Oh yeah, his mom bought one of them CDs and after he got tired of them, he used them for shotgun, you know, like for shotgun discs. Oh boy, I was mad man. He had some nice good ones but he couldn't fix them. He shot them behind the ferret. Well, that happens. And again, I take CDs that are absolutely trash and use them for many different things. They do make good reflectors for a period of time. When a CD is actually on its last leg, it's already been cracked or damaged or whatever. Or if it's something that really, really, really is Twilight Zone-ish, like absolute trash. That's hard for you to find Uncle Mark throwing something away, so you know it's got to be pretty bad if I got rid of it. But fact is that again, there's a lot of stuff that is that's out there It can be fixed and even CDs in fact I didn't know the kids were out there until I finally found one at a restore a resale not a restore at one of the One of the estate I've got sitting sitting right behind me. It's an excellent disc dresser It's a more sophisticated one, but it's actually a mechanical it's deep plug it in does all the work you unstop it Everything's shined back up or cleaned and trimmed up and it works beautifully. Go ahead jump in there. Yeah Nobody gets for those CDs There were bullet prints on the line on how to make your own sort of girl your own solar panel says everything All CDs and copper ladders When you're looking for emergency power, there's something to your trickle-charged batteries. You know, something you can get them for. Another thing that just goes reflectors is different range. Right, which is what we've done for years at certain points around the property. Nobody notices things. People are not attentive. And so you can put a lot of things out there that are useful, but people don't connect to reality. And that is one of them. Remember, they make great range markers. You hit white light out there or if you hit IR it doesn't make any difference. Those reflectors still reflect. So they work exceptionally well for targeting systems, you know, which is exactly what we need on occasion. And if you're not that mechanically inclined, there's nothing else or such good target practice. Right, well that's what Tom says, like it almost fails when they're really bad. It's got to be bad for me to scrap it. Everybody knows that probably by listening. In other words, if I can, well, right now the biggest thing I've been doing is the last couple of days by accident, I got some of the most unique playing systems that I've probably come across in recent years. Some of them are expected. One of them I thought it was picking up a classic 50s Record player, you know, I was hoping it have you know, the higher speed on it But guess what? Yeah, I opened it up. I really figured okay. It's heavy. It's about the right weight Turns out it's a portable reel-to-reel tape player a really fine one And so guess what? I'm not dissatisfied. I really did want the record player. But I'll take a reel-to-reel player with variable speed, everything on board. But it's done in the motif of what you typically saw for the beach party record players. Now, here's the thing. Back in the day, reel-to-reel was top end no matter what. And even after cassette and all the eight tracks and all that stuff came out, reel-to-reel was still the top end of the mechanism and was still commercially used quite extensively because there was a tremendous amount of money spent in sound synthesis with reel-to-reel. So this particular machine in no way shape or form is obsolete but what it does do is I've wanted to put more of these machines at the different radio operational sites, all of our AM, FM, and radio pod, radio command posts. Why? Well, guys, you can drop the speed down on reel to reel, and you're looking at 24 hours worth of play on a single reel. And in fact, what came with this, somebody had something loaded up, I haven't even heard what it is yet. It could be something that might be worth some money, as a matter of fact, because that happened a lot. If you had reel to reel and you had the ability to record, a lot of unique recording sessions were put on reel to reel and are actually quite unique and valuable because they're one of a kind. So don't just chuck those reels, those tapes if you have anything laying around. Magnetic tape preserved a lot of history. And it's one of those things I always watch for because you just never know what's going to end up passing before you there. Anyway, the other thing is cassette players. I've got a whole plethora of excellent cassette players that are going into the library boxes. Now these are regular desktop type. They're reportable, have a little carry handle on them. You've seen them if you're old enough. But the neat thing is both of them are virtually pristine. This came from a out of a grandma's house. The woman was like 95 years old and she just passed away. And she was involved with the church. She was involved with all kinds of different operations. And I believe she also was involved in music. But the equipment that was laying around, a classic, anything from say the 50s through to modern times or relatively modern times. Everybody grabbed most of the super new stuff. But most of them didn't know what they were looking at with what it is. And in fact, they were throwing out all of the technology that I'm talking about. I didn't pay anything other than the time it took to pick it up, which is amazing. So I'm not complaining ever long as I get there. If I don't get there and went to the landfill, horrible. One of the things about this is some of the machinery I haven't seen before. And I've seen a lot of electronics in my lifetime. And there's a few pieces of equipment I've got to figure out where they came from. I have no idea. And that doesn't happen very often anymore because there's only so many things you can build. But then again, there's always somebody with another idea and it only lasted for maybe two years or a year and then it just faded off into oblivion. And that happens a lot. Government makes things disappear. Technology may not catch on. It overlaps with the next wave. and the other wave is promoted better with propaganda so stuff that actually would have been quite useful never really got into full use and production. But again, fascinating pieces of equipment. Go ahead, jump in there, caller. Hey Mark, it's John from Kentucky. I've got several of those cassette players and I'm having trouble with drive belts rotting. Yes. I've got an ampex. 900 that I got in 1968. It's okay, but the belts are fully. Where do I look for belts? Sadly enough, Fair Radio was one of the places you could have gone. Oh, boo-hoo. Yeah, I know. Fair Radio is gone August. We're now headed towards August. There's an auction coming up, but I don't think anyone will buy half a warehouse. One of the places, Surplus, I don't know. Surplus said does a lot of Optic, surplus shed dot com, surplus shed dot com. But, if you're looking for glass, if you're looking for lenses, but they do a lot of other, you know, by their name, a lot of related stuff. And I'm not bothered to check to see if they have anything like that laying on the shelf. Because as I've said before, when these guys buy out a store, they get whatever else the store had. And they aren't going to throw it away, they'll just put it in the inventory. Go ahead, Ed's right here. I'm going to come up here just for a second. I would search Amazon either did through Google or use one of the other searches if you don't want to track you too much. I mean, even DuckDuckGo does it to a degree right now. But you can find surplus new build but old technology for BHS, cassette players, 8-tracks. trying to remember the name of the company it's not coming to me right now, but they've even started doing CD drive units for PC and that's just and we're not talking like the full CD ROM they just do the CD reader that goes in the CD ROM so if you have the knowledge and able to break it down then make the small component repair parts to go inside. They're really cheap stuff from overseas. What I'm looking for is basically a rubber band that fits on a motor and goes to the drive wheel. And I've got like eight cassettes and all of them are dead. Now you know what, this is going to sound weird, but you know where else we might be able to look. If we know what the diameter of the belt of the belt is it a circular belt or is it a geared flat flat rubber band? Which one is it? I think I believe it's flat. I have several you know radio check and you know there's all kinds of different ones but same here same thing here. I've been looking at the same issue about we've got to be prepared for that because it is going to be a problem. However, you know what, Grainger has a lot of different O-rings in different sizes and other types of seal fixtures that are made. They're different sizes. And I've never looked to see if somebody makes a flat tape seal for doing certain items because they did, you know, there are situations where they actually make rather than a rounded seal. They actually make a perpendicular score around the area and you have an insertable tape type gasket. And of course it's usually the diameter of whatever it is. If it's flexible, it's easier, no matter what shape you make it, to insert these. And so basically what you have is a tape coming up out of a flat surface of a machine piece of material. And when you put the cover plate in place, that's enough for the weather seal, it compresses it accordingly. And then you get a little picture of him down. It's great. It's the tall times of the sun, they're the king. 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 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 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 freedom 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. O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great Republic and eat God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch him tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside the dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Oh the land of the free Afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Kornke, one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, east, south, north, and southwest. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com Libertytreeradio.org and we are on satellite. Want to say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there. No matter what body of water you are operating on right now. Let's not forget that again, be careful, pay attention and always know where the lifeboats are. That's all I got to say. The lifeboat technology is fantastic. It's like being in a battle shuttle or a an ejection pod from a spacecraft nowadays. Everybody jumps in, everybody straps down and things launch literally nose first like it's a torpedo off of an old battle cruiser, Japanese battle cruiser. Anyway, again, thank you. We appreciate your rebroadcasting. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Friday, Cinco di Amo Day and Quartermaster Friday. It is the 26th of July and the month is clicking away. All kinds of things to make it exciting here for the last couple of weeks and that's made the time fly. So congratulations, it's only going to get busier and it's going to get worse as this conflict breaks out. So be ready for that. It is the 16th year of Obenavius, an in-your-face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America. With the K, we had the biggest rat bastard of the bunch show up, Netanyahu, to stand there and tell America, give me Mama! Why aren't you following us? Listen, I got Barry Sartaro in charge. Oi, I'm telling you, Barry, you know, good old, good old Obama. Everybody's a meat puppet to one of these characters or another. Anyway, it is the 20-0C, 2024 Old Earth Calendar. Given her old shit is gut captain. And 2024, Battle for the Republic, book one, The Dance of Swords. So, we're gonna get some rubber bands. I wanna touch on something real quick. Don't ever throw inner tubes away. Oh God, Mark, you're telling me you save everything. Well, look at it this way. Inter tubes are really great patch items in so many different ways. Not the least of which is if I need a material to actually goop up a tire, what's better than actually using inter tube sections to slap material on the inside over top of it or else I might have to improvise when the time comes. That big rubber inner tube makes for proper, again, dural material that will blend well with the other petroleum oil and lubricant products that make up the tires, the tubeless tires that you use today, number one. However, in their entirety, be it a bicycle tire, a tire for, you know, if you have tires that you've pulled out for, you know, from your little all-terrain vehicles or if you got, when I say intertubes, not tires, the intertubes, or if it's a car, it doesn't make any of us trailer. It's more likely gonna be a trailer. Cars are all tubeless, but there's a lot of the places where these pop up, bicycles being number one. Guys, those are rubber bands. Years ago when we needed tactical retainer bands, cheapest, fastest, easiest way, and you could depend on what you were trying to secure. Now back, you know, 40 years ago, there were more tubes, tires in service overseas. Many cars were still or were at least popularly, they used a inner tube rather than a tubeless system because they could be fixed more readily. The tube could be fixed easier than the tire could be. Okay, but that's changed. There's been some new ideas that work that have been developed. But you take your scissors, you first of all figure out what am I trying to retain. If you had equipment you were going to put on your eight suspenders on your suspension system. The bike inner tube, usually the larger bike tire was perfect for holding down like a radio set or an additional pocket piece of equipment like a sensor, a piece of sensor technology. There's a bunch of stuff that was used in the 60s and 70s, especially for the handheld piss sensors, the handheld It would be carried in the same place. You actually carry the compress in the upper or the compass pouch up above, which most of the time is the compass pouch up there. But you carry just below it, you use a couple of these bike bands to lock in something that otherwise might bounce around a little bit more and become very obnoxious. You see, bounces once, you don't think about it. Bounces 10 times. Not so much, but you're now thinking about it a lot. But as you bounce and bounce and walk and bounce and jiggle and bounce and jiggle, that gets pretty annoying real fast. It's one of those ticks. It's like water torture. It just keeps ticking at you. So, the larger types of rubber bands you can make with car tires can be used to lock down, for instance, your poncho, depending on how you know, why poncho roll, a little hint here, most everybody did the poncho with the poncho liner. Well, guess what? You cut a strap about two inches wide off of that tire, slide that over and let that compress around the roll, and it doesn't slide off real easy. The great thing is then you take that, put that up underneath your butt pack, cinch the butt pack down with the, cinch the roll down your poncho and your poncho liner with the standard straps that are on the bottom of your regular M1956 butt pack. And guess what? It doesn't know anywhere. It stays right where you put it. Does it slide sideways or ooze out? No, nothing like that. So there's a lot of other applications on the backpack. It used to be before we had the Alice, there were about four different types of packs that were out there that were in service. I still have a couple of the 10th Mountain Division World War II wishbone backpacks. and they're original. But those things were still being issued out in the 1970s. That's how I got them. They were being issued out for special purposes and a couple times once we got them, they were off the books and nobody cared and they went sideways. A lot of guys did that. And don't worry, they were using up old inventory. I mean, come on, they bought that stuff in 1944, 45. Well, in this case, 43, 44. So, they're collector's items, by the way, too, because they are, yes, original. But there was also a couple of other intermediate backpacks. Well, you had all kinds of cinch points on those, and if you made up your own rubber band retainers, like we're talking about, it would help to lock everything down, and it was already a tactical color. It was, you know, dark. It was black. Kind of a runny grayish black and works just fine as you know again for an improvised item that if it breaks guess what who cares I got 16 or 17 more in a little pack or stuffed in the backpack, you know of different sizes So when something gets lost I just use another one See how that works and remember didn't cost anything other than the time it took to recover that inner tube Somebody else is getting rid of The reason I bring this up is I just got a bunch of bike inner tubes the other day. And what am I doing with them? I'm cutting them into little one inch rubber bands and they're going into Ziploc bags and they're going in with the MOLLE gear and with the M1956 and Alice gear that we're barreling up right now. And so we already have these things in the kit. They're already in the barrel, so when you open it up, there's everything there for 10 men. Not only that, but all the doodads and, you know, accoutrements you might want to use. We have a caller. Who do we have? Dorzak. Go ahead, callers. You've been there. What do you got? Dorzak. You got me? Okay. Can you hear me? Yep. We got you. Okay. Palmetto State Armory has a T-SYS 1911. Park rise finish two bags to set the hand grips Case and everything $299 for a 19 eliminate. Is that the is that the a shot? We're standard seven actually it says eight and ten shot mags are available So it'll take the bigger ones, but it's a seven round. So it takes a standard GI. Okay, and it's again Again, if you're looking for a I can beat you to death with this pistol, drop the empty mag, reintroduce the new one, and load the weapon and it will still go, bunk, bunk, bunk, bunk, then you want a 1911. I remember John saying that, he says, heh, because you run out of ammo or they're close and you don't want to waste one, you gotta ram for somebody behind them, he says, lay it upside their head. That's right, slap them upside the head, they're down for the count. Again, it was built that way. One nice thing about the 1911 is all the parts that are out there, everybody can poo-poo, but nobody else has a gun with the exception of the fact that, yeah, there's Lugers out there from 100 years ago and more. but not much of anybody using them or having them, producing them right now. Whereas we have brand new production, we have intermediate production, we have kind of old production, and we have ancient production. And that is the way to look at it. It's a 100-year-old production, and all of the parts will interchange from one pistol to the next. That's pretty decent. Okay, that's an awfully nice feature because you know how many 1911s have actually been built not just by the US but just like the Turkish ones that are coming in the numbers are fast. You point that in somebody's face and they're talking into a sewer pipe. Yeah, there's an echo echo echo echo going on on on the process and that's Palmetto sit armory calm Don't forget Palmetto also is doing ammunition. I haven't heard any more about what's going on with the next generation yet Because they are supposed to be releasing 5 4 5 by 39 That's the next round that they were supposed to be perfecting their production capabilities on and I think that they will because it's just some 60 by 39 and 5 4 5 or so close it's just a tweak to the machine so to speak a little tweak and I think they can handle it so we've got a little fun we can made I'm sorry when you're done when you're done good one of the guys from churches want to send me the ad he says oh I got something to share with you and I saw it and I texted back to him I said Hmm. Do I need more than one and it did the little little scratch your head face? He goes I gave you two hands for a reason I said I like the way you think Everybody can use two pistols everybody I Personally like I've said well, of course, yeah, I get this United States guns are for buying not for selling I like the idea of having another one in reserve But if I were a pop for instance if I was in aviation, I might not carry a 1911 probably carry a Glock Why would it carry a Glock? Because they can carry three Glocks and they aren't in my way and I have lots of backup guns without having carried that much more in the way of weight and of course, you know, the Air Force wouldn't like me to think that way but in a combat or wartime situation if you end up going down and you're able to get down and away from everybody you're on your own and just in case something does happen to the weapon that you had you started with, all your mags are interchangeable. Now you carry a 1911 For the longest time I carried, when I was traveling around the country, I carried a standard 1911 in the shoulder holster. I carried a commander on my hip and I carried a little chubby stubby in another place. And that was, if you saw me speaking, that's what was in front of you every time I was speaking out there. And that didn't mean it was where it was in the country. Because we assume that if bad guys want to do something, they're going to do it. And if they are, well, I'm going to participate in the defense. I'm not going to let somebody else do all the work. You all need to be thinking the same way. In fact, remember, you got girls out there. Now, I want to say something for everybody. Well, 45 is big. Ladies, you can handle a 1911. Trust me. Is it a relatively large firearm? Yes it is, but you know what's really nice is just as Darcy said, when you point it at somebody, it has tends you to, first of all it looks like you're staring at a cavern, number one. Number two, the echo factor does help, and if you do have to pull the trigger, one round in many cases is more than enough to deal with the problem, contrary to what everybody thinks, where you have to riddle everybody with bullets. It's amazing how many people were killed in the past, without being riddled with massive quantities of ammunition. Have you ever noticed that? Nobody talks about that. It's like, well, okay, before we had these large magazine capacities, how many rounds did it take to usually in a gunfight kill somebody else? Have you ever looked at the numbers? They actually do have these numbers quantified. When the 1911 or the 38 revolver, a 357 revolver was dominant out there, guys, it only took Oh, I think they said it was 2.58, well I don't know how you divide that up, whatever the numbers are, but 2.58 rounds to make a hit. Whereas once it went to large magazine capacity pistols, now it's up around 26 or 27 rounds to make a hit. Which sounds weird, but I've seen spray and pray situations and everybody seems to prefer them nowadays. So, guess what? When you aim and if you aim you hit them and if you hit them you put hurt on them, it's kind of nice to know that you've done your job right from the get go. Now, do the math on that one. Now, does that mean I'm going to immediately, oh Mark said get rid of all, every time I say this, somebody's going to go, what are you saying, get rid of your other weapons? Well, hell no. I've got 9 millimeters, I've got 32s, 25s, 30 Lugers. You name it, I'm pretty well sure, and I know how to use every one of them. I actually am quite enjoying. I would enjoy using any one of them. But the 1911 is just like we just said, and I will say that one of the things taken into consideration, if you have to defend yourself, especially in a, you know, let's just say that a fath'ing kind of attitude where they want to get close, you don't run from the target. This is something they don't teach you very often, but let me help you with something. When an attacker moves to do the dirty deed, they've calculated in their mind all of the math. It becomes fixated in the fight-flight process. One of the worst things you can do for an individual making that attempt is to change the math calculation, the math parameters. Do you run and try to get away? No! You step into while you're bringing the weapon to bear that you have, and you engage the target effectively, remember, put them down before they get a chance to finish what they thought they were going to start. And this is something that they don't want to teach everyone. You're supposed to be horribly terrified, scared of, no, no, no, no, no. And one of the reasons for closing is because typically, as in many cases, the target, the weapon of the individual in close or intermediate range can be identified before a shot is taken. In other words, they're not secret squirrel up under the jacket and firing through a coat or firing through a cake box or anything. No, they're actually quite identifiable. Their actions are totally unnatural to the rest of the environment. So if you can identify the threat, all parties, but especially if you're the target, can easily engage the threat. In fact, one of the other parts about that that I've kind of had conversations about, because of the predator mode, And let me bring this up. I'll go back to something I was taught years ago and this had to do with sentry removal. And as I've told you, contrary to the movies where the guy is staring at the back of the guy's head, that is the opposite of what we were taught. Do not make eye contact. Look at your subject in a peripheral. Use your eyes to observe the area around the target so you're not caught unawares because you've miscalculated. You may have actually walked up on another individual that you didn't see that wasn't part of the formula because there was something obstructing your view but most important is you're not bearing your sight that because of the fit the the sixth sense whatever you want to call it this the the Defense mechanism of the brain subconsciously what it's registering you don't look at the target so typically again One of the things that's fascinating is that when you're observing, you can identify that energy. It's totally contrary to everybody and anything else in the room. And you see this in a lot of movies. They always do something where it's slow motion. If you're a participant and you're observing the group when this is happening, you're probably the first person or the most likely person to identify the threat before even the security or the policing detail, whatever it might be. if you're paying attention because typically amazingly enough a speaker is contrary to what you might think. They're not enraptured in themselves and into some kind of self-absorbed activity. So it's rather fascinating that again, rather than being unarmed, your better choice is to be armed and actually know how to use what you've got. Now, add body armor to that. and all the other necessary tools which by the way if you're willing to spend the money and you know or if you know the resources or you don't spend that much money but you end up with the defense technology unique combined with the ability to defend yourself and then be proactive in neutralizing the rest of the threat. When I was doing a fact I'll tell you what, when I was speaking in Albuquerque and by the way this video is out there I haven't bothered to look through that. I hadn't thought about this myself because I was there. I know what I did. When we were at the Albuquerque event that is posted on the internet, I think it's on YouTube, guys, if you check this out, there is a point at which somebody shut the lights off for the facility, all the lights for the whole building, for everything inside the public area where people were seated, which was thousands of individuals. Okay, they shut the lights off all at once and it was part of the to make a threat towards me. Okay? But when they shut the lights off, I moved. We have a standard policy. Each of my all my people that were our security that were people that I personally knew, everybody moves. Well, they could have night vision, whatever. True, they could have night vision. But the assumption is that the target is going to, you know, stay in place. Instead, you move to advance. No, you'd run or step away from, uh-uh. You step forward. They shut the lights off and then count 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, 5,000, and then they turned the lights back on. I stepped away from the podium and went approximately 10 feet forward and to the right. Now, for some strange reason, everybody was in the observation mode and all of our hands were out of sight and under our coats. What were we doing? We were going to be involved in a very intense discussion on the philosophy of life and perhaps death. So again, have a case of attitude, number one, pay attention to your environment. And with the weapons that you do have, what I like is that you hit them with one round with a 1911, despite all the propaganda, which by the way, they're into again. Number one, 40 caliber Smith and Wesson is now stupid, whereas before the whole argument for 40 Smith and Wesson is that it was greater mass than 9 millimeter and far better than the old grandpa 45 ACP. Now the propaganda has completely flipped in that the 45 is the FUD they're using FUD gun for 45 now really I know a lot of combat troops I don't you can call them FUD they walk up and put a bit of bull in your ass so fast make your head swim But the 1911 is now the dumb gun the 40 Smith and Wesson is passé because they've discovered that 9 millimeter was so much better Well, wait a minute. That was the reverse argument of what they did three decades ago when they told everybody you had to have 40 Smith. So it's purely a matter of selling guns and it's purely a matter of propaganda, like we were talking about earlier with the song by Muse. And still, everybody poo-poos the .45, but what's fascinating, it just keeps chugging along. And one of the reasons is that, again, a good solid hit with a lot of mass without having to have a specialized bullet is why the 1911 exists. Just a real quick case in point, we had .38 Auto as our standard gun. And by the way, the .38 Auto round was in a Colt type package before the 1911. Now, what is 38 Auto? 38 Auto is basically a long 9mm. In fact, it's closer to 9mm Largo, which is slightly more powerful, but otherwise identical projectile, the whole nine yards. 9mm Largo, oh hell, there's a couple other 9mm that are long cases. Oh, come on. 38 Super. Which is a 9 millimeter long case, okay 38 supers. It's all kinds of 1911s built in that well the government had that before the 1911 was brought into service and Back then the argument was we're gonna go with a faster hotter greater penetrating bullet Etc, etc. Then they went to two places. They went to the Philippines and they went to Peking What happened in both locations? Well, the Navy and some of the Marines ended up with 6mm lead because a smaller, hotter, faster bullet was going to be better than a lunky old .30 caliber bullet. Okay. And we had the .38 revolver or we had .38 auto, slash, take a pick whatever nomenclature you want to use depending on what country it was, in a pistol. Well, the Boxer Rebellion, the Chinese knew about the word opium. And so if they were in a bonsai charge, although they were Chinese, not Japanese, and they were fighting, by the way, the Chinese were fighting Japanese in not baking, along with us. And they found out that the six millimeter lead, oh hell, you keep right on target, put a bolt right through you so fast, make your heart swim, you know, your, what the hell happened? Your head just go crazy. problem if you didn't hit a vital component it was like an ice pick going through you. The 38 auto was the same way if you didn't hit an exit if you didn't get it right on the brain right on the brain pan or if you didn't get it right into a critical point where you could snap something it was ineffectual because the targets typically were doped up. and energy was not distributed on targets so that it was, you know, if the kinetic strike was more effective. Remember that all of these militaries had to use ball ammo. You can't tell me, well, they should have used this and that and that. No, they were still conforming to the rules of war. And these relatively new rules of war made specific arguments for the type of ammunition used. And even, everybody conformed to it. Even the countries that were poorer. So, guess what? You had to use a ball round, you had to use a jacketed round. So, the solution was to go back up to 45 ACP to deliver more kinetic energy on target and knock the target down first time every time. In the Philippines, there were so many incidents where the Bonsai charge type, you know, suicide attack type Filipinos Moros were coming in and they were shot with whole magazines. The whole revolver would be dumped into a whole cylinder, would be dumped into a target and the guy would still have enough energy to come in, hack you three or four times or even take your head off. Then he'd die, but he killed you in a prop. He took you with him. And the testimony to the effectiveness of the 1911 spoke for itself, or I should say the 45 ACP. type cartridge and because there are other prototypes at 445 ACP that were in the same basic class and they settled on the idea that hmm damn straight that seems to work and there's nothing that's changed. about those basic rules. So right now the propaganda is telling you how 9 millimeter has been rediscovered, 40 caliber is now passé, and all these departments are going to take your tax dollar and dump all their 40s progressively and go back to 9 millimeter, which everybody said was a, what were some of those terms they used in the propaganda? Oh, the 9 millimeter wimpy round. It was wimpy. It's wimpy. Why do you want those 9mm wimpy rounds? Okay, well, again, I wouldn't argue against it because there's tons of the stuff around. Europe never went to anything much bigger originally than the 32 for most of their policing work. 32 Auto, that's why you see all these 32 Auto pistols that are out there as surplus. The FEGs, you know, you got Berettas, you have Brownings. Those were cop shop guns, guys. They didn't carry a 9mm. Military carried a 9. And they did. They carried a 9mm pistol of one form or another and it was consistent for quite some time now. Now it's been almost 100 years too. But their guns have changed. With us, yep, 45 ACP. Guess what? I can take a 45 ACP built in 2024 for that brand new pistol that Darje has brought up. I can load it right into my 1916 Marine Corps 1911. And you know what it does? Clunk. Click. Boom! So I guess there's a little bit of stuff laying around for it too. And don't forget magazines. I love the fact that there's a hundred years worth of magazines out there. Don't be taking into consideration. One of the other things on that note, and that's what we were asking about here too, there are Turkish 45s that are eight-shot proprietary. They won't take the seven-shot military mag. However, realistically, if we get into a conflict, what's going to happen is someone's going to come up with a machining package or come up with the specs for opening up the frame to accommodate being able to use either mag. That's not an if that's just a when and I don't think they designed them so that will be it will be impossible just a reverse It will be quite probable What it means is that you would have to machine knock the front of the pistol grip of the 45 to the point where the front toe of the 1911 magazine would rest inside that well and That would be quite probable. In fact, there's no reason not to right now. I'm surprised someone hasn't already come up with the process and started to promote it. It would be a way to make money because the proprietary guns are actually pretty reasonably priced too and again, if you get a deal and there were have been a few out there, then it is an excellent way to again be able to keep all the guns in family serviced when the time comes. Everybody could carry the eight rounders if they wanted. I will point out when I carry a 1911, normally if I was carrying it concealed I just used a standard seven shot military mag. Typically I had a bunch of Winchester produced and I think what was it American light or something and these World War World War I and World War II mags half of them are World War I. Those are what I carry for my combat load. But, if we felt that we were going to shift into a threat situation, what I would do is drop the seven, put it in my pocket, insert the 11 round 1911 mag, one, and that would be my first magazine going into operation. After that, everything would be sevens. So, just something to think about. One 11 round mag, notice I didn't do a 20 year, although I do have two 35 round stick mags for the 1911. What? Yeah, yeah. Back in the 70s, early 80s, a couple companies made these really long stick mags and where they had a premise for this, during World War I, they made them for aircraft crewmen to shoot at each, you know, for American pilots to shoot at those other guys if they were in the air. It was one of the first things that was done to add more firepower. Pistol ammo? Yeah, seriously. And they made doubles. What they had was two of these long stick mags, 25 rounders or 35. I think the 35s were deemed to be unwieldy, but a 25 I can beach it to death with if it's loaded. And what's fascinating about this is they made a brass basket. cartridge catcher because remember you're flying in a plane with a canvas outer sheeting and if you're whaling away with brass and it gets it's hot and you've been firing quite a few rounds that brass would actually eat through the canvas. So they actually had wanted the brass catcher as a precautionary to make sure that you didn't start putting holes in your own plane. Interruptly enough. Was it a successful idea? Well, they carried it for whenever they carried it when they carried it I have never had talked to a pilot who said that he used a 45 in aerial combat in World War one But I'm not a ground pounders in World War one But I only met one or two pilots and they were from the end of the war and mostly doing Reconnaissance or training and then they got pulled back to the US and that's decades and decades and decades ago But I would assume that if they gave it to him, somebody would be at least smart enough to every once in a while, well, take a pot shot, see how it works. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, how many of you around does he have? 25? Well, or maybe 35, sir. And when you're saying 1911, you're talking a mag that, yes, is about two feet long to two and a quarter. Oh, by the way, they made magazine pouches for those magazines also. If you run into anything like that, do not assume that that's an aftermarket toy. That may be a highly collectible piece of canvas. And remember, that's money towards another AR-15. Don't ever forget that. If you run into anything like that, you're going, what the hell is that for? It looks like a 45 pouch, but it's really, really, really, really long. Guys, that's something that is worth a lot of money. You can buy another AR-15 if you run into stuff like that. Estate sales, we run into things like this all the time. Doesn't have to be the guns. Most people don't think about the accoutrements. And the accoutrements, because they typically weren't picked up, are usually more expensive than the items that everybody picked up or grabbed as the traditional souvenir. Scabbards for the British number five jungle carbine real ones are worth the cost of what the rifle used to cost Quick color jump in there. This is Carl in Virginia Jump on that train Very prolific around here. Yeah, so the 45 Auto is very popular right now with people running sound suppressors. And the reason being is all 45 Auto ammo is subsonic versus 9 millimeter. It's got to be 124 grain or heavier is subsonic. So with 45, everything is subsonic, which is really cool. You don't have to be picky about it. The other thing is, you know, it's kind of weird. I think of a 1911 almost as a as a chick gun. And it's because I worked at a couple of different gun stores and it became like a running joke. A guy would buy a nice 1911 and a week later he'd be back there buying the exact same model all over again. I'm like, wait a minute, didn't you already buy this? He said, yeah. I made the mistake of letting my wife shoot it on the range and she said, this is my gun now and now I gotta buy another one just like it. Yeah, because these women, they're shooting their little 380 and it sucks to shoot and they can't hit anything and her husband is sitting there drilling the target and it's like, let me try that and she shoots it and it's like, oh yeah, this is mine now. But I've been wanting to see is a is a pistol carb carbine that uses the 1911 mags. Is anybody using it? I didn't be making that. Excuse me. You know who did? Marlin Marlin's camp carbine was the best damn product that came out in decades And what happened, I don't know what was, went on between their ears, but they produced it using the original ones that they built way back, I think it was at 84, 85. It might have been earlier than that by a few years. But the Marlin Camp Carbine, the 45 model, used the 1911 mags. And at the time, I want to say that it used the 9mm, used the Beretta Model 92. Now I could be wrong because there was also one of them actually the later model we found that it could take about oh six different staggered magazine high capacity mags even though it was designated to use you know Marlin mags a number of different large capacity standard magazines for different pistols one of them was a CZ actually would work in the Marlin camp curbing So if you run into a mark the problem is nobody's coming off them I don't see those things jumping out anywhere and the reason is that they whoever got them It's they're really like you said quite valuable with as a standard weapon coming off the shelf you got 45 ACP you make that gun up with a standard 1911 for your hip your hip gun and it's a classic saddle carbine putting all saddle pistol combination So yeah, the Marlin, the Marlin camp carbine. I noticed that something else that's popped up as they're doing the Dassault, they're doing copies of the bolt action, sentry removal gun they made during World War II that the Brits did. It's a British Lee Enfield action with a mock suppressor on it. The original ones were suppressed. But the whole idea is that it's really simple to build those guns up from scratch because the only thing you do is change out the barrel and it's so simple with a British Enfield that it's ridiculous. So that would be another consideration because the new kits I noticed that they're making use the 1911 magazine. There's two different companies out there. Now the one may have already come and gone. They may have already gone out of business. But the gun they were producing, well the kit, is everything you need to replace or insert in the magazine well and it includes the magazine guide and a magazine. And then you bought the barrel as part of a separate kit, put it all together and you got a number, I think it's a number four mark one converted over to Again, not a pistol barrel length, a carbine length barrel mock-up of the silenced Enfield in 45 ACP. But that would be a manual gun, however, it'd still be pretty handy. So, yeah, look for the Marlin camp carbine. and track that down if there's any available. And if you do find it, I'd be curious what they're expecting to get for them. I would say they're probably commanding a more of a price just because of the nature of the beast. But they were an excellent weapon. So it's like firing a .22. Just a way to describe it. It's one of those guns, again, if you're an older person, like we've been talking about as we get older, we're going to have to lighten up a little bit. The Mount Marlin. In fact, if you had one, I've said this a million times, don't get rid of it. Maybe it's the weapon you've already standardized on. Oh, Mark's talking about something I'm already using. Good. Don't get rid of it. And don't let somebody talk you out of it. Hang on to it. It's a very useful firearm. Anything else, Carl? Jump in there, please. We've got a little bit of time. No one on. I can go. Okay, very good. Carl jumped on the train. My God, Carl, you made it! All right! Carl's on the train. So anyway... not jumping on somebody else again. He was actually trying to get on a train. No, he was not. My goodness, he was thinking about it though. I know he was. So anyway, a couple of other things here real quick since we're talking about light car beans, don't forget that, well, it won't be matched up. I wish that they had. Well, I don't know. Somebody could do that. Ooh, that would be cool. How about somebody make an adapter kit that somehow we could actually use 1911 mags in a high point car bean? Hey Remember the high point frame is plastic. So if as long as you could get it, right How difficult would it be to possibly machine out carefully the excess material and inserting a 1911 tab type magazine catch I don't think it'd be that hard and you know, what's really funny about that. You know, what's really cool you could use surplus 1911 parts for the for the magazine release why not? Break. Go ahead, call or jump in there please. Yeah hey it's BC I was listening to your discussion on the 45 magazines and it reminded me of a little honey hole in which I discovered if you go to Sarco SARCO is actually manufacturing their own 45 auto magazines, seven rounders of course, government issue style, for $6.95 each. They're brand new. They're produced on a computer controlled high speed link press. This provides a stable platform for progressive dies and uniformity. Excellent. Body tooling has six stages and follower tooling has 16 stages. This assures an accurate and repeatable process with less metal stress when fewer, less radical bends are made. The latest technological parallel feed lip design for proper timed release of cartridge, special for semi-wad cutters, also per technical feedback semi-wide cutters may require additional timing or tuning of your magazine. Welding is done with a Yasakawa computer-controlled robotic arm argon welder unlike some 45 mags. You can't see the seam weld on their back if these guys make in-house quality control gauges. A national standard are used for checking every stage of production. Quality control inspection involves a two to five D video measuring machine enabling checking for every specification and keeps the record in memory. Springs are tested to 20,000 cycles. Dimple designed on a mag catch override for easier mag insertion. Latest rounded follower design. Mags are processed in a hot bath of sodium hydroxide nitrates and nitrates at 141 degrees centigrade. This converts the surface to magnet it or whatever that is. The process is done and they give a bunch of numbers. Anyway, if you go to SARCO and you do a search for 45 magazines and you'll eventually scroll through theirs, they normally sell for $8.95 a piece. You can get them right now for $6.95 a piece. I ordered about 40 of them about three or four years ago. And they're just phenomenal. And you can't beat them. For that price, for the quality control in which they claim they do, for a seven round 1911 magazine, you cannot go wrong with this. Absolutely. I thought I'd bring it to your attention. 1911 materials of all types including frames they used to build frames. I think they still are making their own frames. And the quality of the product was comparable to government standard. Considering it's 6, what, 6, 6, a little, let's say 7, a little add a few more pennies. $7 apiece for that magazine is a very reasonable price. Oh yeah, things, yeah, you can't beat that. No, not for what they're putting into it to develop something that's consistent over a production line I mean, it's not like you got some couple of Chinks in their backyard over there in Thailand, you know with a little hot iron press trying to make the things individually Right and circle circle has had the one thing it's like people don't think of them the way they would say Remington or Bush master or you know DPM or whatever for parts Of any kind but the thing is that sarco has been building gun parts for decades actually with this year 2024 so I'd say they've been doing it for half a century at least and they because Go ahead. Go ahead. I was gonna say they apparently know what they're doing by the description on the On them on the page for the unit they're selling and like I said, I would about 40 of these things and I I don't regret it as a matter of fact I'd probably buy more sooner or later. The .45 is my go-to everyday carry anyway. The weight is an actual plus because it keeps your recoil second shot recovery in line. Don't let that get you down. In order to carry it every day, you need to have a proper holster and a proper belt to support it. Once you get that in place, it's a piece of cake. The only thing it becomes a generic standard 1911 auto magazine, seven rounder, just like your government issue, just doesn't say government. Go to the Sarco Inc. It's sarcoinc.com. auto magazine seven round and get them come right up and order you a pile of them. If they sold these things out the back door, whoever bought them would probably turn around and sell them for $25 a piece. Easy. So they're nice. They're real nice. But they're blued. So you know, you just got to take care of them. That's all. But anyway, with a shoulder holster carry, I take some getting used to because it makes a pull on your shoulders and your neck. Once you get your shoulder holster broken and tuned, I guess you get used to it. Of course, your two magazines on the other side counterbalances it a little bit. Wearing it all day long, you're relieved when you take it off, that's for sure. 4 o'clock position on the hip is the best way to carry one of these puppies with a galco holster. That's what I highly encourage people to go for. So spend a little more, get a galco, and buy once, cry once is all I say. But I'm going to get out of the way and let someone else talk. Take care. Thank you. I appreciate that. Again, sarcoinc.com. Sarco. Sarco. Sarco. S-A-R-C-O. And they may still be doing frames. They actually, I think, well they were one of the first, not the only one, but they were one of the first to actually offer 80% 1911 frames decades ago, back in the 80s. They were the first ones that said, hey, you know, if you know what you're doing, you finish it, this is not a gun, this is paper weight. Buy this paper weight and you figure out how to finish what we started and congratulations you have a 1911 and back in the day the 80% frames the ambient price was about $73, $74. Now they made mags but they were again different processes for different generations. Sounds like again they've invested a specific amount of money And if you have a whole bunch or a brace of 1911s, this is a good solution to make sure that you have the minimal number of mags on the shelf to keep the weapon functioning, weapons functioning. My attitude is 6 plus 1. You want to carry six mags on your person plus one if you're going to be looking at a conceal combat load. Now, I'm going to remind everybody of something here. You don't have to have them in mag pouches. And the biggest thing with pants pockets is you do what they used to do in the 20s. Two things, number one, they used to make what they called pocket pistols. Many of you may have seen the holsters but didn't know why they built them the way they did. Everybody used to have deeper, bigger pockets in their pants. The belt line used to be high, not low, okay? And so where the structural control of the belt line was such that it kept everything up higher on the waist. And the pocket pistol holsters usually had a counterpart that went in the other forward pocket that actually was a little magazine holder. Now this wasn't for 45s, no, no, no, no, this was for pocket pistols. But if you take the same idea, and so later on when guys started carrying 45s, especially during the raw end 20s, what you have and you don't see are all the different styles of how to carry more mags, well, what you did is you had a seamstress make the pocket canvas instead of sateen because most pockets you'll notice in all your pants are lighter. And then what most did is actually sewed double magazine pockets into the pants so that they lay flat on your leg when you're moving around so they don't print. And because they had a canvas inner shell or at least a heavier gauge cloth comparable to what the pant on the outside was made, then it was much more static and stable when it came to staying where it was put. So it wasn't uncommon to have a guy with a couple of magazines in one of his pockets and still carry the human... Congress, July 4th, 1776. The unanimous declaration of the 13 United States of America. When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another. and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them. A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such forms, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness. Prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes, and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and use of patients pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, is there right? It is their duty to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient's sufferance of these colonies. And such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. Prove this? Let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained and when so suspended he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, reposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time after such dissolutions to cause others to be elected. whereby the legislative powers incapable of annihilation have returned to the people at large for their exercise, the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states. For that purpose obstructing the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing his assent to laws or establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of offices to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace standing armies without the consent of our legislators. He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution and unacknowledged by our laws giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation for quartering large bodies of armed troops among us for protecting them by a mock trial. from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states, for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world, for imposing taxes on us without our consent, for depriving us in many cases of the benefits of trial by jury, for transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses. for abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies, for taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments. For suspending our own legislators and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfectly scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections among us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers. The merciless Indian savages whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attention to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantedable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity. and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must therefore acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation and hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace, friends. We therefore the representatives of the United States of America in general Congress assembled Appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare that these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is and ought to be totally dissolved and that as free and independent states they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent states may upright do. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, And our sacred honor. a couple of different perspectives and things from the assassination attempt that I haven't seen yet, I haven't watched the videos, but I appreciate it. I don't think it's a body cam from one of the police on the roof there. I would be curious to watch that. We've got a lot of stuff that's obviously been posted on the assassination attempt also. Some other fun stuff just to watch. from Winj Day, I see that Gregor posted stuff from Viva Dirt League. If you haven't watched them, they're New Zealand. They make a lot of video game parody stuff. Good humor though, I'd say they're like the mommy python of New Zealand in modern day. If you want to laugh, if you're into games, you'll laugh more than if you're not. But even if you're not into games, their little comedy skits are funny. So, let's see. I did have a couple of things that were sent to me that people asked me to play. I just posted them in the YouTube video links. These are just updates on the information so far on the Trump assassination attempt. I'm not sure how long these are though. Hang on here. I'm just going to pull it up long enough for me to see the time index. I think that was 20 minutes long. Yeah, so the first one is 20 minutes long. That's going to eat up a bit. But it goes over some information you may or may not be aware of. I mean, a lot of it we've talked about here. And then the second video is what we know about the shooter and his family. So first, I guess we'll jump right into this and we will play the Congress shows Trump's shooter evidence previously. So this is basically like a recap for people. So stuff as it came out in the timeline, stuff that they tried to take away, stuff that ended up being worse than they said it was, really good put together. piece here so to play that it's 20 minutes and 48 seconds long. I haven't reviewed the whole thing. I've reviewed some of this and I have time to go over it all before we got on there. Here we go. One shocking event that followed the shooting of Trump was the discovery that BlackRock, a multinational investment company with over $9.1 trillion in assets under management, had strong ties with the shooter at Trump's rally. But before we get to that, it's important to know the allegations against BlackRock and its ties to the shooter can be traced to a Texas-based investment company, Austin Private Wealth. Just a day before the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, Austin Private Wealth made a massive financial move. The investment company filed for a put option on 12 million shares of Trump Media and Technology Group. This move, which appeared to be a bet on the company's value dropping if Trump were killed, raised immediate suspicions. Screenshots of the put option from a Bloomberg terminal circulated on social media, causing a frenzy of speculation. However, these screenshots mysteriously disappeared later in the day, adding fuel to the fire. The timing of the filing, just before the assassination attempt, seemed too coincidental to be ignored, and so this investment raised many eyebrows during the investigation. In response to the growing controversy, Austin Private Wealth addressed the rumors on their website. They claimed that the SEC filing, which showed that they shorted a large number of shares of Trump Media and Technology Group, was incorrect and attributed it to a clerical error. They further clarified that they held only 12 contracts, or 1,200 shares, not 12 million, blaming a third-party vendor for multiplying all options contracts by 10,000. They assured that they were reviewing their internal procedures to prevent future errors. But despite their explanation, the timing and nature of the filing continued to look suspicious. The plot, however, thickened when it was revealed that the alleged shooter had appeared in a commercial for BlackRock. I hope when I retire someday they say, that guy made this place a special place to come to school. In response to the backlash, BlackRock quickly pulled the ad and condemned the assassination attempt as abhorrent and awful. But this revelation added a new layer of suspicion. Was it a mere coincidence? Or was there something more sinister at play? The shooter's appearance in BlackRock's commercial was a startling connection. It raised questions about extent of BlackRock's involvement and whether there were deeper ties between the investment firm and the shooter. The timing of the commercial's release and its subsequent removal only added to the intrigue. Almost immediately after, conspiracy theorists were quick to link the dots. They pointed to BlackRock's immense influence and its connections to powerful figures like George Soros and the Rothschild family. The timing of the put option filing, the shooter's appearance in BlackRock's commercial, and the subsequent stock price surge all seemed just too convenient to be called a coincidence. The connections between BlackRock, Austin Private Wealth and the shooter were too glaring to ignore. Was this an orchestrated attempt to manipulate the stock market and profit from a tragedy? Or was it a series of unfortunate coincidences? The truth remains undefined, but the suspicion lingers. Events before the shooting. Before the shooter, Matthew Crooks, took his position to snipe Donald Trump, it was discovered during investigations that he employed a DJI camera drone to survey the rally site, thoroughly planning his attack. This calculated move allowed him to gather real-time intelligence from the sky. The drone provided Crooks with an overhead view of the rally site, enabling him to map out his strategy with precision. Federal Aviation Administration records reveal that a temporary flight restriction was in place over the rally site for a window of 1 hour and 55 minutes. This restriction is a common practice for securing areas where high-profile events are taking place. However, it remains unclear whether this window was extended or modified, because despite these measures, Crooks managed to bypass the restrictions and fly his drone over the rally site, highlighting a significant security failure. The drone's flight path, likely recorded by DJI, left electronic traces that investigators later uncovered. This digital footprint was a crucial piece of evidence in piecing together the events leading up to the assassination attempt. While it is understandable if the Secret Service claim to not have known seen the drone in the area before the shooting. One questionable detail is the fact that the Secret Service had spotted a shooter targeting Donald Trump 20 minutes before the first shots were fired yet they did nothing about it. To fully understand the gravity of the events that happened on July 13th we need to delve into the detailed timeline of the shooting and the response of the Secret Service. At 5 10 p.m. Thomas Matthew Crooks was first identified as a person of interest. He was seen acting suspiciously near the rally site by 5 6.02 PM Luckily, the Secret Service counter-snipers reacted with remarkable speed, taking down Crooks just 26 seconds after the first shot was fired. Although the Secret Service sniper was quick in his response and neutralized the threat swiftly, it's important to note that all of this would have been avoided if they had just arrested or at least questioned him when he was first spotted. Speaking of events that happened before the shooting, the shooter's father, Matthew Crooks Sr., was deeply worried about his son and made a call to the police when couldn't find him. His son, Matthew Crooks Jr., had been a... acting increasingly erratic and had disappeared without any advance notice. This call, made out of desperation, was intended to alert authorities to a potential crisis. Matthew Crook Sr. informed the police that his son had vanished and expressed his fears about his mental state. He mentioned that his son had a history of major depressive disorder and had been behaving unpredictably. All of this were signs of the disaster that was about to unfold, leaving many to wonder if all could have been prevented. Had the warning been taken seriously, these new findings about his mental health and unpredictability begin to make even greater sense when we take a look at the mind of Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old assassin, the twisted mind of the shooter. A disturbing discovery in the investigations after the death of Matthew Cooks is that he was a big fan of Ethan Crumbly, the Oxford High School shooter. Cooks' fascination with Crumbly came to light during a meeting with lawmakers where the FBI and U.S. the Secret Service disclosed that they found a picture of Crumbly's mug shot on Cook's cell phone. This revelation was not entirely surprising to those familiar with the patterns of mass shooters. Steve St. Juliana, whose 14-year-old daughter, Hannah, was one of the victims of the Oxford High School shooting, remarked that it is well-established established that shooters often research previous incidents. This pattern of behavior is a chilling reminder of how the notoriety of one shooter can inspire another. Forensic psychologist Colin King, who interviewed Ethan Crumbly, suggested that Crooks may have viewed Crumbly as a mentor. He further stated that Crooks was looking for tips and inspiration from the Oxford case to carry out his own act of violence against Trump. King pointed out that Crooks' extensive research into Crumbly and his parents indicated a deep-seated obsession. Andy Arena, Detroit's former FBI Chief pointed out the similarities between Crooks and Crumbly. Both young men appeared to struggle to fit in and battled mental health issues. The FBI and Secret Service discovered that Crooks had searched for information on major depressive disorder and depressive crisis treatment, conditions that Crumbly was also diagnosed with. This parallel between their mental health struggles adds another layer to the story, highlighting the often overlooked issue of untreated mental illness. The weapons used in both incidents also draw a striking similarity. Crooks used a gun owned by his father to attempt to kill Trump while Crumbly used a gun bought by his father to carry out the Oxford High School shooting. Crooks' extensive online searches for major political figures and their events further illustrate his thorough planning. He searched for the date and location of the Democratic National Convention and the Butler-Trump rally where he ultimately carried out his attack. His actions resulted in the death of firefighter Cory Comparatori and injuries to two other rally attendees. This level of planning and the choice of a high-profile target suggests that Crooks was seeking the same kind of notoriety that Crumbly had achieved. But it doesn't end there. The investigation grows even darker with the discovery that five years ago, a seemingly ordinary high school student from Bethel Park High School in Pennsylvania made a threat that would later foreshadow a much darker future. At just 15 years old, Crooks threatened to shoot up his school, a warning that was dismissed by officials but remembered vividly by his classmates. This threat, coupled with relentless bullying and isolation, set the stage for a horrifying act of violence that would shock the n- Don't come to school tomorrow. The post hinted at bombs being placed in the cafeteria bathrooms, creating an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty among the students. Vincent Tormena, a classmate of Crooks, vividly recalled the day the threat was made. Half of us just didn't come to school the next day. I didn't, he said. The fear was real as many students chose to stay home, unsure of what might happen. But despite the gravity of the threat, the school administration dismissed it, failing to take any significant action. This decision would later be identified as a missed opportunity to intervene. in Crookes' troubled life. Crookes' high school years were marked by rejection and exclusion. He was barred from joining extracurricular activities, including the school's rifle team. Despite his interest, he was told not to come back after his initial tryout. This rejection was a significant blow to Crookes, who was already struggling with major depression disorder, as later revealed by criminologist Dr. John Censich from Penn West University. The constant teasing and isolation only deepened his sense of alienation and resentment. The FBI's investigation into Crookes' path Also revealed the chilling similarities between his high school threat and the assassination attempt explosive devices were found in crooks car parked near the rally grounds Mearing the bomb threat he made in high school this connection has become a focal point of the investigation in Determining his motives on the other hand some other shocking discoveries were made the FBI launched an exhaustive investigation Scouring crooks cell phone computer home and car for any clues what they found was both shocking and puzzling among the many things they found were photos on crooks phone of former President Donald Trump, President Joe Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland, and FBI Director Chris Wray. These images raised immediate questions about whether these high-profile figures were potential targets in a broader, more sinister plan. Special Agent Kevin Rojek, in charge of the Pittsburgh Field Office, addressed the media, stating, We have no indication of any mental health issues. This statement came despite the fact that Crooks had searched for information about major depressive disorder. Investigators have not yet determined whether he was active diagnosed with the disorder, adding another layer of complexity to the case. As news of the shooting spread, social media platforms were flooded with speculation and conspiracy theories. One of the most sensational claims involved a supposed Instagram account belonging to Crooks, which allegedly contained a bio stating, praise the Lord in my quest to end Epstein's sick evil empire, PA born and bred. This claim quickly gained traction with many believing it to be evidence of Crooks vigilante plans. However, multiple fact checkers in including PolitiFact, debunked this claim. to larger conspiracies so far. The only confirmed social media account belonging to Crooks was on Discord, a platform primarily used by gamers. According to Discord, Crooks' account was rarely utilized and showed no evidence of being used to plan the assassination attempt, promote violence, or discuss his political views. The lack of a significant online presence for Crooks has only deepened the mystery surrounding him. In today's digital age, it is unusual for a young person to have such a limited footprint on social media. This absence has led to widespread speculation. and fueled various conspiracy theories, despite the lack of concrete evidence to support them. As the FBI continues its investigation, more details may emerge about Crook's background and motivations. For now, the public is left to grapple with the shocking events of July 13 and the mysterious Thomas Matthew Crooks. The idea of a young man driven to such extreme measures by a vigilante mission is a compelling narrative, but it is not supported by the facts currently available. Crooks worked as a dietary aide at a nursing home less than a mile from his family's house. A colleague from the nursing home described him as someone who never expressed political views at work and wasn't considered a radical. He was always polite and did his job well. We never had any issues with him. He never talked about politics or anything controversial. The FBI believe Crooks acted alone, but the motive behind his actions remains a mystery. Crooks political leanings are also a puzzle. He was registered as a Republican voter in Pennsylvania, yet records show he donated $15 to a progressive political action committee on January 20, 2021. President Joe Biden was sworn into office. This conflicting information only adds to the mystery surrounding him. There was also the discovery of MAGA supporting signs in his yard for a while. Neighbors in Bethel Park, a Pittsburgh suburb where Crooks lived, confirmed seeing pro-Trump signs in the family's yard as recently as a few months ago. This revelation has left many baffled and searching for answers. Both of Crooks' parents worked as social workers. His mother is registered as a Democrat, while his father is a libertarian. This diverse political background only deepens the mystery of the American people. of Crook's motivations. As investigators continue to piece together Crook's background and motivations, they're examining every aspect of his life. But social media activity offers little to no insight. With odd and mostly a political posts, the shooting has left a community in shock and a nation searching for answers. What drove Thomas Matthew Crooks to such a violent act? But with all these details released, there is still a lot of evidence that has just been recently revealed, puzzling evidence released after the shooting. Many important details that were previously hidden from the public have recently emerged, and one that stunned everyone was the discovery that Donald Trump was denied extra security by the Secret Service. And with this news out, the agency has come under heavy investigation. It was revealed that over the past two years, requests for additional security measures for former President Donald Trump were repeatedly denied, despite escalating threats. The agency repeatedly denied requests for additional security measures for Donald Trump, despite mounting threats and increasing public appearances. The incident of July 13 exposed Trump's vulnerability and further raised serious questions about the agency's priorities and capabilities, leaving many to wonder how such a breach could occur. Agents responsible for Trump's security detail had been sounding the alarm for quite some time. They requested magnetometers, which are essential for detecting concealed weapons, and additional agents to screen attendees at large public gatherings, including sporting events and rallies. These requests were not made lightly. They were based on credible threats. and the sheer volume of people attending these events. However, the Secret Service, citing resource constraints and staffing shortages, turned down these requests. House Speaker Mike Johnson did not hold back in his criticism, describing the Secret Service's response to the assassination attempt as, unconscionable. He went further to declare that Director Kimberly Cheetle, head of the Secret Service, is, not fit to lead. Pennsylvania Congressman Brendan Boyle echoed these sentiments, becoming the first Democratic lawmaker to publicly call for Cheetle's resignation. Boyle cited unacceptable operational failures and a loss of confidence in her leadership. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. In a shocking revelation, Trump told Fox News that he was not warned of any potential threat before the rally began. According to Trump, Crooks was identified as a person of interest almost an hour before the rally, yet no one informed him of the danger. Wyoming Senator John Barrasso, who attended briefings with lawmakers, confirmed that Crooks was deemed suspicious due to his possession of a rangefinder and backpack. Sniper spotted Crooks on the roof 10 minutes before the rally started and 20 minutes before the first shots were fired. Trump expressed his frustration questioning how Crooks managed to get on the roof and why he was not reported sooner. Surprisingly, the Secret Service in a statement provided to USA Today acknowledged that they had turned down requests for additional resources. Spokesman Anthony Guglelme stated that in instances where the agency could not provide extra resources, they supplemented security with state and local law enforcement. He emphasized that the Secret Service This works in a dynamic threat environment and employs a comprehensive strategy to balance personnel, technology, and specialized operational needs. However, this statement contradicts previous claims made by the agency. On the day after the shooting, Googlielmi had asserted that it was untrue that additional security resources were denied. He took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to refute the claims, stating that the agency had, in fact, added protective resources, technology, and capabilities in response to the increased campaign travel tempo. Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the Secret Service, also weighed in on the controversy. Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas labeled the accusations as baseless and irresponsible, asserting that the denials were totally false. The denials of additional security for Trump, coupled with the tragic events in Pennsylvania, have raised serious questions about the Secret Service's ability to fulfill its mission. The agency, once revered for its unwavering dedication to protecting American leaders, now faces a crisis of confidence. The outcome of this controversy will undoubtedly shape the agency's future and its approach to protecting those under its charge. To add fuel to this fire, an anonymous online post by an author who describes himself as Jonathan Willis says he is the US. The Secret Service sniper who killed the suspect in the assassination attempt of Donald Trump has been shared widely online. He claimed he had the assassin in his sight for at least three minutes, but the head of the Secret Service refused to give the order to take him out. However, the US Secret Service spokesperson Nate Herring said nobody by the name Jonathan Willis is employed by the agency, but that little seed of doubt was already flamed into a huge furnace on the internet and the agency further lost trust with the people. Like this ex-post with over 27,000 views that reads, there's a good chance that the Secret Service was supposed to let that guy kill Trump and then kill him. They didn't react until Trump was hit. The police were told about the shooter before he even took a shot. If the Secret Service shot him that quick, that means he already had him in his sights. A video of eyewitnesses at the rally further back this point. down there running around on the ground. We're like, hey man, there's a guy on the roof with a rifle. And the police are like, huh, what? You know, like, like they didn't know what was going on. You know, we're like, hey, right here on the roof. We can see him from right here. We see him. He's crawling. A full breakdown on the timeline of the events of that also verifies these claims. At 5 p.m., a young man is seen pacing around the edges of the rally area, looking at the buildings, acting suspicious. Rally members capture his image on their cell phone. At 5.20 p.m., local law enforcement officers took notice of Crooks, who was carrying a backpack and a rangefinder. They radioed their concerns and snapped a photo of him. However, Crooks vanished shortly after, and the image was circulated among officers stationed outside the security perimeter. At 5.40 p.m., Law enforcement spotted that man again about 20 minutes before the shooting. 602, Trump takes the stage to the strains of God bless the USA. He waves at the cheering crowd and begins his rally speech. As Trump is speaking, Secret Service two-person sniper teams can be seen positioned on rooftops behind the stage looking in opposite directions. At around 609, witnesses reported seeing a man climbing onto the roof of a one-story building closest to the stage. He then set up his AR-style rifle and lay on the rooftop, a detonator in his pocket. to set off crude explosive devices that are stashed in his car parked nearby. The roof where Crooks lay was an estimated 147 yards, 135 meters, from where Trump was speaking. 611, Trump still speaking, turns to his right to point towards a screen displaying border crossing numbers when three shots are heard. As the first shot rings out, Trump says, oh, raises his hand to his right ear and looks at it before quickly crouching to the ground behind his lectern. Secret service agents rush to the stage and pile atop Trump to shield him. Rallygoers scream, crouch down and run away as heavily armed law enforcement officers surround the stage. Seconds after the first three shots, five more shots ring out in rapid succession. Unfortunately, Corey Comparatori, a 50-year-old former fire chief attending the rally, is shot and killed. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro said Comparatori used his body as a shield to protect his wife and daughter. Two other spectators were severely wounded. Trump obviously survived only by the luck that his head was slightly turned to the left. A diagram shows that his fortunate Again, that was a just a basic quick recap of stuff that had come out during the assassination attempt on Trump. There's more there. There's a follow-up video by the same group. What Trump Shooter's family just said about Trump is terrifying. Haven't watched that one. Haven't reviewed it. There's stuff in here though. Like I said, it's not something that we did. It's something that somebody else did. There's some stuff in here that we know. More than a little confirmed, the fact that he had two mental occupied parents in the field. And apparently he had work in the place where they were treating people as well, doing dietician work. Again, and there's some rumors that are in there too, like the Dabers' rumoring that there was Trump, uh, support Trump banners in the family's yard that mysteriously disappeared. Uh, again, that only came from one source. There's no pictures and there's no confirmation of that. That could just be somebody throwing that in there to stir the pot, you know? The social media thing is interesting that they're saying that other people were running social media in his name But it wasn't him and supposedly they can't find any other social media for him other than discord Which I could see that happening with some people. I mean, I don't use social media myself. I got my wife to quit using Facebook People had called her idea and we're trying to contact family members with it so we just put out a notice to family that that's not Shelly and we're stepping away from Facebook. So there are reasons why you wouldn't have a social media footprint and not everybody's tied into you know the tied into the phone but it's interesting that he was detached from his family even though he had family living nearby. I thought he was living with his parents Although, I really haven't been able to get a confirmation on that. I know they're saying that he was living close to his uncle, but his mother and his father knew he was missing and called the police. So it's interesting, you know, he went to his parents' house, borrowed a weapon. Apparently dad let him borrow it. said he was going to the range and the initial report, you can find this, where they interviewed him said, you know, he asked to take the weapon to go to the range to do some target shooting which was not uncommon for him. Blah blah blah, yada yada yada. And I think the other video that was sent to me on this subject is just as long. Like another, yeah, it's 21 minutes. I don't think we have time to get it all in. on this hour where we're at. We're at 39. We could probably fit it in there, but it would be just. We would be right into the intelligence report with that if we played it. This is a town hall meeting, though. This is, as we say, your program, not mine. We're just playing the stuff you guys posted in the, well, sent me an email and posted in the gilded for people to go check that out. U.S. Congress shows Trump's shooter. evidence video about the Krishna investigation does not look into the audio analysis. Yeah, a lot of the videos that are out there that are covering this are ignoring that audio analysis that was done that they brought up in Redacted. Other people have pointed that as well. So this is not an end-dollar basically it's a recap on what the official story line is, we'll put it that way. Because I don't think, none of these get into the fact that the FBI was involved early on with the Trump assassination thing, with the investigation. Just interesting. They talked about, when it first happened they were talking about the FBI had people on their own, then they kind of shut up about that. But they did get pulled into the hearings But I didn't get to hear all of that. I haven't watched all of the hearings with the FBI yet, other than I got up to the point where it turned into, we need to go after the January 6 people. And what's supposed to be an investigation into the Trump assassination, they turned it into that. That just kinda, I kinda turned it out there, because it's all propaganda at that point. Yeah, a lot of it is propaganda. They're not giving you answers or trying to sculpt the narrative. Even the Secret Service Director. Go ahead. Yeah, I think it's pretty telling that there's a picture on this kid's phone. I yield. That's the only thing that you had on there that was of interest is BS. You know, I remember initially too that the phone was locked to a point where they couldn't get into it It was it was secure and they they couldn't break it. Blah blah blah all that crap which is BS, you know California State Police have got a device that they got in their cars They they bragged about it for a bit that any time they pull it behind you They can copy everything on your phone and go right through it while they're driving down the street Michigan has that too that State Police Yeah, they bragged about that when it came out and then they shut up about it because that's a tight. That's a big-ass violation It's like the how they tracked him back supposedly by his I by with him not having an ID Was the firearm and the registry that they're not supposed to have Which they use that to track it back to the firearm back to the dad, you know, so That's interesting They got grilled on that in the hearings too. I think that was the ATF in their investigation. I watched a little bit of that. But yeah, the usual suspects are there and amazingly enough, they all fumbled the ball. Everything was just off. Even our investigation, we don't know what to do. Does anybody believe that? These are the quote-unquote professionals who want you to believe that they can see all do all and you can't get away with anything without them, you know Saying it and in a controlled environment They let this happen. I did not see I haven't been able to confirm if ATF were actually on the scene for the Trump rally but it wouldn't surprise me because we know that the We know we had the FBI, the Secret Service, the state police, county police, and private contractors. You know, there is a line in there where they said that they never employed anybody with that name. Well, no, of course not. They don't have anybody in the Secret Service with that name. He didn't have a Secret Service uniform on. He had white letters on his back police. They contracted out to other people. You know and we know the sniper now at this we know the sniper was fired the one that actually shot the shooter that you know in Theory, you know would be your hero to go he stopped to say say we did such a good job They they fired in put him on administrative leave which of course if he's a cop that you know standard procedure if you shoot somebody they put you on administrative Weave, but you typically you don't fire somebody Not in their situation. They'll put them in administrative leave. They'll transfer them to another department. They'll put them out in the middle of BFE where nobody knows who he is. And that's typically what they do with somebody like that. Or they put them out there and they make them disappear. They kill them off. That's what happened. The guy who allegedly shot the, you know, the shooter, alleged shooter, He said that he had him in his sights for 23 minutes. I heard the first reports and now they're saying three minutes. Well, three minutes is what's been, it's how long he was on the roof before he was shot. Like I said, a lot of people have done a pretty good breakdown on the video matching the audio up of what Trump's saying, because you can hear Trump. In all the videos, that's the key point where everybody's been going to. Yes, there might be a little echo. There are more than three buildings. I said three buildings, but there are three building clusters that you had to cover. If you get on the high point of one, you can cover all the buildings in that area from the high point. And basically, you only need four sniper teams, really, to overwatch that whole event, or just four spotters. If you had just stationed somebody up on those roofs, they didn't have to be snipers. Is somebody up on those roofs with a long gun or even with a pistol would have been able to take care of the situation, but they didn't do that. They had snipers on the one roof and possibly the water tower, but they won't confirm that they had anybody on the water tower. Although people have got footage and unfortunately the footage of the stuff from the water tower all seems grainy. Nobody had a good zoom lens on that water tower, at least not what I've seen, but it does look like something's moving up there. Now and unfortunately, you know, not everybody has a steady camera hand and sometimes when you're excited There's motion, but there's a lot of footage to go through that doesn't mean that there isn't better footage out there We just got to keep looking Before they make it all disappear Which is one thing that they're trying to do. They're trying to scrub it. They're trying to flag it. Yeah, it's amazing They can't show Trump getting shot on the news over and over again, but if it's from the mainstream media's angle. But if you're trying to watch it on somebody else who's posted it because they were there as an eyewitness, they're flagging it, parental consent needed, extreme violence, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, right on down the list, flagging these people's videos for inappropriate content. But they'll play the, they'll let play the video where Trump gets shot in the air over and over and over again. Just like watching the the World Trade Center towers fall, you know. Oh it's so it's so terrible it's so gruesome we can't show this because it's violence but look at this violence. You can't show the uhh you know that stupid shit. Yeah you can't look at it unless we show it to you. Yeah, and it has to be from our approved angle. That's what I was talking about with Craig. It's like with the Kennedy assassination, we got the Zapruder film. Well, the Zapruder film wasn't the only film that was there. That's just the only one that they let us see. They went around and they confiscated cameras or recording equipment. everything from everybody there. Of course with modern technology it's a little harder to do that and some people were streaming as the thing was going on so that genie is already out of the bottle in that instance. Unless they want to jam the whole event with a signal jammer which would have looked even more suspicious. I haven't. Oh it does. Will we ever really know I like the group they mentioned the Soros step But they didn't mention the bush connection to that company in that video either that the big investors in there is bush, halberton That investment group out of Austin that they know. Oh, yeah Yeah, that's no good Yeah, that's tied directly to the bush family down here ha ha ha That's funny because they what I heard it was a bunch of Jewish firms, you know that options in Well, it wouldn't surprise me if they were because a lot of bankers are Jews But the ones who are holding those options that people they were holding those options for were all Bushes cronies and his son and it's like the old CIA assets gave the Sun a heads up that hey you better get rid of this stock, you know? Yeah. But then of course, like we said, then of course, come Monday it's like, oh, that was a mistake. We didn't actually sell that much. We still didn't sell our stock. Yeah, exactly. It wasn't that much. You know, it's not that, it's not that, oh, no, it wasn't that, oh, no, it was a mistake. We didn't do that at all. It was, no, we just didn't do as much as it looks there. But we did dump all of our stock and dump. Not denying it, just saying that the numbers were exaggerated. So, yeah. And of course everybody was like, well no, I've actually had that argument. It's like, no, they didn't say that they didn't sell all their stock, those of all the Trump. They just said that the numbers were a mistake. Words mean something, especially in baking. If you listen to what they say, if they tell you, no, no, there was a mistake in the numbers and it wasn't that much, They didn't say that it was that we didn't do it. They just said it wasn't as much as was reported. So, interesting stuff going on with that situation. Of course, we still have the situation going on down here. I have not got the name of the individual down here in Texas that is being attacked by red flag laws in California when he hasn't been there or seen his family member who's made the claim on him. In over 30 years, I would love to know the person's name, that way we can put some support out there for them. I send an email to the people who asked me to play the video. I haven't heard back from you guys. I'd appreciate at least an email. Tell me, hey, no, I just don't want to do it. But it's like those lawyers said, and the lawyers should know this too. You are on your own right now until you speak up and you get support. There are people in the community that would support somebody in a case like this. They wouldn't have to fight it alone. They wouldn't have to. The burden wouldn't be entirely on the person who's being attacked. In fact, if anybody, I would, if your lawyer ever tells you to shut up and, you know, don't ask for help, don't draw a light to this. When you're in that kind of a situation and being attacked, I would find a new lawyer. Yeah, get rid of them because they're setting you up for a fall or they're planning to steal everything you have There are many ways you could reach out for help go fund me or you know, come up on a radio program talk about what's going on Literally ask for help you might you putting it out Online like that you might actually even get a pro Second Amendment lawyer in California who would stand up and deal with it for you. Gun owners of America, hell, even the NRA. I don't trust the NRA to get anything done with that, but at least people would know what's going on with you. At this point, we can talk about it because we know what's going on, but we can't send any more support. We can't send any support. That's the part that irks me. You know, I might not be able to do a lot, but I would help somebody in that situation. You know what I mean? There are any other cases like that going on out there. We'd love to hear about them too. I mean, it doesn't have to be this case in Texas. You know, the lawyers were mentioning that, you know, it's going on in other states too. Nobody's talking about it. Nobody's putting it out there. It's not in the news anywhere that California is reaching out with its hand and trying to subvert the rights of people who are not in their venue of control, who are not in their jurisdiction. Yeah, there we go. That's a better word. The more light that's shed onto, you know, these creatures doing that, the harder it is for them to move. Anyway, we're about, give or take, from the top of the hour, the intelligence report will be coming up soon. I'm gonna go over to our music requests over here on the guild aid and see if we've got something we can play that will fill the time. We might have something. Let's see, this is for GI Joseph. This was a request from Tuesday, 12.44 p.m. For former U.S. Secret Service Director, Kimberly. She's gone by hell, no, no, by Holland Oats. We'll play that real quick. About two years ago, we had a hit in America with this song, off an album called Abandoned Luncheonette. It's called She's Gone. shield from Tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The Tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedoms gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free, 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 to number. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and 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 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'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, get 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 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 fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Well the land of the Liberty Tree. Anyway, good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Evening, Intelligence Report, I'm R. Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. West, south, northeast, and north. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. And we're on WBCQ, the Planet 6.160 Regular Shortwave, WBCQ 6.160 Regular Shortwave. We're on satellite. I want to say hi to all our merchant breed operators out there and log in digital listening and rebroadcasting in so many different ways Creative ways some impossible to track fascinating. We're the myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside these United States it is Friday it is sync with the ammo day and it is quartermaster Friday it is the 26th of July, yes, already, absolutely. Oh, yeah, more on that in a minute. It is the 16th year of Open Obvious and In Your Face Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K. 2024 Old Earth Calendar. 2024 Battle for the Republic, Book One, The Dance of Swords. A couple of movies you want to check out. Guys, with all of the corpse moving, of course, Weekend at Bernie still makes the most sense. In all that sunshine, big animals kind of get smelly real fast. Did you understand that? Have you ever seen a deer along the road or even an armadillo in, like, say, Missouri in the summer or Florida or south Georgia? Yeah, you go buy it in the morning at 9 o'clock and swell one size you go buy it three hours later about lunchtime and It's a an animal balloon Yeah, they don't address that when you're in hot places. So you got to keep chilling The whatever it is you've got on storage. Yeah, that's gonna that's got a good thing You know smell of vision either ever thought about that one. No, we don't have smell of vision sir But more important is a movie Go ahead call her jump in there. I'm sorry to interrupt John here I dropped an extra 20 on PayPal to help pay for the postage on that huge box that I got So I'm more than paid for the postage and also thank you sir my phone number in there if you ever wanted to give a holler and compare the Call your books. So yes, thank you. Thank you. If you need it if you want it, that's fine And I'm generally around most of the time so If you want later in the evening, yes, well that's not the day you can work Yeah, probably after 9 Eastern because you know what I'm doing from 8 tonight every night. So you know how that is. Well just bear in mind, 9 o'clock is Husky bedtime. No, I will keep you up just little bit. I will test you here. 9 o'clock bedtime. Give me my snack, I'm gone to bed. With or without you. Funny. But anyway, yeah. You know just feel free that it's there for you, and I'll get those two of those packets distributed here PDQ for you, so Thank you appreciate that We know a real quick again as long as we touched on that for a moment We have a bunch of packages going out I sent a we committed to a certain direction with all of the manual requests. I think we have 20, now we have 29 or 30 states, I think it's close, maybe beyond that now, separate state militias that we're asking for manuals. Now what we did is we shared the wealth with what's coming out of the printer every week. And last week we did 50-50 on the order, the size of the orders for the first couple of states, which took half of what they needed and sent it to each because that's what we had on the shelf and or that we could get out of the machines. Now, here's what's happening. Arkansas, we just ship you 100% of what you requested. This is probably enough for a couple of full-strength battalions or whatever you want to call them, you know, brigades by definition. Most of everything is usually a battalion strength, 600, 500 to 600 men and or women. The big thing here is that we wanted to get one project done because we're in a hyper accelerated situation with regard to mass expansion. We're concerned about macro motion. Not going to micromanage anything that's going on. Whatever your solution is past what you've decided to do in terms of your path to creating a victory situation, you've got to figure that out. We have three states that we are going to do this with because the numbers are sufficient so that with what we can produce through the printer in a day will go out to that group. So it's all over the country. It's points of the compass, not quite, but it's like these are not the smallest, but we knew that the average production for one day could deal with one project. And we will get to everyone. I already sent and I packaged up myself. In fact, John just got some of them. We sent out a certain number of packages to each state to get them started with, and again, there's a difference between the full pack and a what we call, I guess you could call it a regimental pack or a battalion pack for individual use. The basic FM's, TMs, any other circulars that make sense for the individual and that's where especially the SOP comes in because it's quick, easy and it puts everybody kind of in the same on the same page. You'll change some of it up or you'll have things that you add to the SOP in terms of what your specialty is. It's interesting we've always had a proliferation of medical units with like Northern West Virginia Pennsylvania. In fact, I will say this and this has been true since the 90s. There are two Pennsylvania militia units that have probably the best medical support units in the country for the militia. They heavily influence the management, a lot of them having military medical background, influenced effectively the entire organization so that they're oriented towards fast pickup turnaround. For casualty, you know any casualty production that takes place can't handle everything but you can do a better job if you know what you're doing and So they've been oriented just like you are in carrying ammunition for the squad machine gunner, you know belt fed guns everybody carries some that way you can throw a belt to the guy that needs it and He can keep going chooka chooka chooka chooka. The same is true with medical. Yeah, everybody carries a little bit of extra medical and For you guys that have Barrett's, what's the policy with most of our units with 50 caliber guns when they're integrated in the squad? Well, part of your dumb, dumb weight or heavy weight is everybody is carrying one M16 mag pouch with 10 50 caliber rounds in it times the whole squad. That means that that Barrett can keep going boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, some more. Which is especially unique. Well for the medical units one of the things they did again that M16 Meg pouch has become such a utility tool The standard Alice type they what they do is a complete IV rig in an M16 Meg pouch and everybody's carrying one Specifically to throw it dock if he needs it or to use with the casualty if you become a casualty That it's not excess. In fact again, a lot of this stuff's gonna be gone fast But it puts it right up where the bullets meet the people and vice versa. You're sending bullets out, they're bringing bullets back. Bad guys are sending them your way. So again, I appreciate the interest. The incident that took place here, guys, doesn't make any difference. It opened everybody's eyes to the reality of what we were facing. So... Will it take a pot shot Donald Trump? Everybody figures well hell we're next on the list just like everybody's been saying and it's obvious what the Communists and the FBI and the Communists and the regime are planning So this has built up a resolve in Everyone so don't hesitate don't wait. You don't have to wait for us to give you a patent head or squeeze on the ass to get something done There's still plenty to do and a lot of it we talk about here The basics are in place, but don't just think going after the range and shooting is training. As many of our friends have said for years, you know, everybody shows up for the shooting class, but nobody shows up when it has to do with field hygiene or taking care of, you know, maintenance on, fill in the blank, whatever. That's not exciting. No, but it'll keep you alive. So again, pay attention. A lot of work to do. The big thing here again, we had Nuttin Honey slash in here wagging his penis in America's face, that turd showing up and we have no president. And the regime, the globalist slash the New World Order click, don't call him that bullshit, deep state title. That's supposed to be psycho babble, they picked that name out themselves. Because they were they know that everybody understands new world order everybody understands globalists so they got to come up with something new That's all the bullshit you every time they come up with some new phrase and it's mystical Well, you know what turn the light on every place where the dark old deep state is Illuminate their ass and where you can put bullets down range. They're planning on killing you. They want to kill billions of us We might as well get rid of every last one of them Right tip for that and there's more of us there are them saw betcha. They'll run out of people before we do Just that simple, but we also have to get really good at what we do. So Organize Armor Equipment Train is militia, establish a 5-10 program, your area of operations, logistics, the key to victory. Now, another thing before I forget, always more things on the list, it's Quartermaster Friday. Over at Sportsman's Guide, they have the best price for standard NATO 40mm filters right now, I think, in the country. There if you buy a single filter, they're on an $8 apiece. That's average if you buy five They're a little better But if you buy ten in a bundle you get the best price of about four dollars and some odd cents if you have the other special discount the price drops even farther if you know for all our friends out there listening we have a special code and One way or another it's If you have any of the masks where you either have, you only have one filter or some of you bought spare masks that came with no filter. They steal the filters out of the mask and sell them sideways. Well, this is a way to replace those filters and have a filter with each one of your reserve masks, which you should because it doesn't make any sense otherwise. And that's over at Sportsman's Guide dot com. Sportsman's Guide dot com. Surplus 40 millimeter gas mask filters and you'll see what pops up. Buy the quantity, get your friends together, everybody pitch in. Remember you put enough together, it's free shipping and that's a big issue with heavy weight and bulky items. So, Sportsman's Guide dot com, Sportsman's Guide dot com, Sportsman's Guide dot com, 40 millimeter filters. Now, another thing is some people don't like the gas mask bags that come with some of the gas masks that they have. If you look, you can find OD Green M40 or other bags that will fit any gas mask out there. The cool thing is they're American issues, so a lot of you guys have already been using them because you used them in the military. I've been sticking with the mask bag that comes along with the Nokia, the M1 Yugoslavians, which are in the 60mm filter. Why? Well, if you go over to GunPartsCorp.com, Gunpartscorp.com, Gunpartscorp, C-O-R-P, dot com, and go over into their gas mask section. They have gas mask with filter and bag, new old inventory for 1995. Might even have it on sale once in a while, though not recently. That's the best price in the country for a gas mask right now. It is a former military issue. The U-Go's didn't make it. Nokia, Finland made it, first of all. The masks are a copy of the M9 gas mask the US was issued. Right now at Sportsman's Guide in a couple of locations, M9 masks are available. So if you want to see and compare notes, go look at the M9s that are US made, US issue, old inventory. There's a bunch of those out there. And while I think they have also the M9 filters, the filter for the M9 gas mask, 60 millimeter in the US peanut cans. Either the sealed tin take the you know, the key ring type system reappeal the that band back and you open up the can and Again, they are good filters. There's nothing wrong with those but they're cheaper over at gun parts Corp comm so you can get both the masks with a filter and a bag and Then if you need more filters, especially if all of you're getting your mask at the same time pitch in and buy a case of filters at Gunpartscorp.com. They have them by the case. More you buy, cheaper things get, always. Now, let's see, next thing on the list. Also, I was talking about body armor. A bunch of people said, well, what kind of body armor were you? What kind of body armor would you suggest? Any armor is good armor, but I prefer a full wraparound and I know that, well, wait a minute, it's not necessarily a level four or a rifle or this or that or the other. Guys, a lot of what you're going to run into is going to be frag. If you look at the Osprey system, here's an example of really where originally the PASGAP system was supposed to go. And in fact, it did. We just never got the armor. If you go back to the 70s after Vietnam, they evaluated all the technology. And the only country to actually implement and issue out an armor system that was similar to what was actually in motion, about the same time as the Bradley, the Abrams, the Cuck V, the Hum V, okay. The new ALICE system equipment was out there and in conjunction with it was the new Paz Gatt armor system, not just the Paz Gatt helmet, but also a complete bodysuit. This is where Star Wars got the idea for the fully armored Stormtrooper. because images of the calf armor, thigh armor, groin armor, assault vest, or I should say armored vest, and other armor, including arm armor, was actually put together and figured out. Now eventually, as is almost always the case, because, well, that costs money and putting all the soldiers in that would be expensive and we just came out of a war, the only group that actually saw that complete system were combat engineers who were typically an EOD or mine clearing. But that wasn't just for them, its original intent, as explained in a myriad of discussions on the subject and during the development phase, is that all troops were going to get this because they evaluated what happened in Vietnam and they didn't want it to happen again. Guess what? They ignored all that and then had to re- then they had to reinvent the wheel. But the British basically went to the Osprey. There's Gen 1, Gen 2. I think there's Generation 3 and 4 now, maybe even up to 7, because there's some other stuff I've seen that's been out there hanging around. It's too new. We can't get it yet. But the osprey system has armor down the around and over the shoulder of the ball of the shoulder joint, okay, and also a high collar, which is something that they've kind of gone away with with the armor that we get, but the original high throat collar was a high priority based upon casualty development in the conventional warfare environment that Vietnam was, you know, was a part was involved in, the nature of the beast. So the Osprey, if you look at it, is everything that you'd want. You'll notice side armor, front armor, back armor, throat armor, and also upper shoulder armor that drapes down into the arm. Why? Because that's the parts of the body that will be exposed to fire if you're trying to stay in contact and return fire. Can we get osprey? Yeah, you can probably there's still some places to buy it but the prices, you know You're talking first-born male child not a town of titanium, but pretty damn close price wise But you can still get a lot of the other armor that is full soft soft threat level 3 That is full wraparound and even offers some neck coverage, but it will rig you by from whoever If you rebuy that, you put the plate carrier over that and what do you got? You're an armadillo. Now you're still not overly heavy, but that side wrapper on armor is going to help you a lot more with fragmentation and that's what's taking out a lot of people. If you only have these little chicken plates front and rear, these front and rear plates, everything else is up for grabs and we need to be better protected than that. Also, I know that the Mish and all the other operator helmets are out there, but the Pascat helmet still makes more sense. And if you end, there are new models being made that are even made out of steel right now that are not cheap, but not outrageously expensive. And that are rated for, you know, level three, four, depending on what you want to spend. Are they good? Yeah, they work just fine. Everybody's had a chance to get their beaners shot at overseas, so they're getting a chance to openly field test and find out end result. If it's big enough, it's only resistant and you can't stop everything and there's some big crap flying around with a battlefield that'll get you no matter how hard you try to block it. The best thing is put more dirt between you and them without becoming a corpse and getting buried. Just that simple because you always put lots of dirt between you and the battlefield you die and people want to get your stinky corpse put underground because it's embarrassing during the summer so again Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance There is groin armor, by the way, most of all these units, the Osprey has groin armor plate that goes in and dangles up front, the Czech, the Polish, everybody has had that, the US, it's up and down, but it's out there. And again, of course, we also made armored underpants, those became available for a bit, you know, the lower cover. They were cheap about a year and a half, two years ago, they're gone. Now you can buy the outer cover carrier, but you can't get the armor. You know how that is. So, again, any armor is better than nothing. And somebody says something's outdated, ignore that crap. That's like saying, oh, your food's outdated. Really? The dates a month ago, is that bad? No. A year ago? No. Food is really bizarre because they've got everybody into the religiosity of that to the point where, my God, we're collecting food hand over fist. In fact, I am to the point where I have to find other places to store the free food we've been getting. Because we are getting a lot of it and I'm not passing any of it up. I'm now distributing as much as I can. I'm up to spec. I don't need any more than we got, but I'll keep taking what we get. And if I have to, I'll store it for my own purposes. Down the road, one of you are going to get a meal. May not be the latest and the greatest, but where the other side likes to starve your ass out, at least we're going to put some calories in you. Everybody needs to be thinking that way. Another thing real quick, boots and footwear. There's some deals. Botash has had a couple, oh, two deals. Over at Botash, B-O-T-A-C-H, they've got uniform pants and uniform shirts for as little as $4 a top, $4 a bottom. They've got them in brown, gray, the Kelly or a forest green, but also OD green. They have both long sleeve and short sleeve battle shirts. And they have six pocket pants for about five at four top for a bottom or six atop six a bottom. Go into their clearance section and you'll see what I'm talking about. And yes, they have up to size three and four X for some of these. If you just want regular clothes, these are not camouflage. If you think in your area that camouflage will be considered, oh my God. Well, one of the colors I do like is that earth brown or chocolate brown that they've got out there for satisfying cop shop uniforms. And it's a good neutral color, not too bright, not too dark. Blends in most everywhere because you're going through different terrain. But as casual clothing for every day, pants would work just fine. So if you need more clothes, Go check Motash because this is a way for you to put more tactical uniforms and equipment on the shelf. And remember they're called fatigue for a reason. What does fatigue mean? I'm tired in French and very tired. Fatigue. Are you fatigued? Yes sir, I'm fatigued. There we go. That's what your clothes look like. You look like you're fatigued. So anyway, check them out. And needless to say, I always watch for the shoes and boots there right now too. Not as good as some of the prices we were getting a few years ago, but your dollar value has gone down. The currency has been devalued. The pigs have been at work trying to destroy your economy, and they're doing just that. So we've got to find the best deals we can. You are not working hard enough. That's right. Quick, quick, quick. Grab another shovel. Now, On that note, since we mentioned shovels, which gee, related subject, we go from one to the other. Just to give you an idea of how crazy things are, Sportsman's Guide does have tri-fold, the US military shovels, actual military shovels. The used ones with a modern shovel cover are actually about $36 apiece. But the new ones, which I don't think do come with a shovel cover, are 70 some dollars apiece. Now, That's an option. Needless to say, I've been watching for anything that people have been getting rid of at yard sales or at retail shops. And if I can get a shovel for a dollar that's got a broken handle, I'll cut it down to a certain length, put a stirrup handle on the end of it, or just round out really good with the sander and then paint everything and oil everything. And I've got myself a utility shovel I can hand out and go to town with people, you can start digging if you want overhead cover. If you want protection from what's coming in, you gotta dig down, pile up. Just don't throw the crap around everywhere and make a target of yourself. But right now, the price of old, what were old military surplus shovels from any country, China's making copies of everything that they used to sell. There's copies of the East German shovels, which I think is a real joke, Romanian shovels, Swiss shovels that don't fold. There's copies of World War I German shovels. All this stuff is being made in China to simulate surplus. Like one guy said, oh Mark, I never thought we'd run out of shovels. I would have been touching tools, but we have. Oi. So the head start making fakes. One of the wholesalers has had a tri-fold shovel that they keep getting in stock and I keep missing and the last time they got in 300 of the shovels Cost was like the price of the shovel cover Not really the greatest but you know what they actually are a tri-fold shovel. They fit the standard carrier and they work for a while Problem as soon as they get them it takes them a day and they sell out. It's better than digging with a bayonet Yeah, and again, the idea is that there is a significant interest. The only thing that sells faster is this company also does Donald Trump 2024 flags. And they got about nine versions, okay? And the moment they get them, and they get about 2,000 to 3,000 flags in each order for each flag, and they're gone in less than 24 hours. They can't keep them in stock. They get them. Okay, but they don't, they're gone. Spit out a griddle. As soon as somebody knows that they're there, it's usually the tickle meter go, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, gone. And it's gone. So again, certain things, those E-Tools are definitely in demand. Everybody's got a firm belief in picking one up. That's fantastic. How many should you have? Somebody's just asking here. How many people do you have? Every person should have an E-Tool. Ideally they should be carrying it. It's a weapon, it's a tool, it's in fact, if you're working in the modern battlefield, digging in and creating cover is one of the things that will save your life. And so, it is logical to have a decent tool in hand. Go ahead, jump in there, caller. What about hatchet? Would that be good to have too? Well, of course. Well, actually, I'll tell you what. There's a couple of styles of Matox that are out there right now. And one, it's not actually called a Matik, but it is. Basically, the one is a Matik head, like a flat blade on a pickaxe. But the other is a patch-type blade. It's got the same, basically like a Tomahawk blade. And these things are about the size of a medium regular forest axe. And they're usually reasonably priced. Now one of those, you can sharpen that up on the blade that's, forgive me, parallel with the handle. And you got yourself a pretty good utility, an entrenching tool for difficult conditions and or a personal mayhem weapon. And certainly hatchets, axes, all of those fit in that category. The tomahawk, same thing. S-wing and everybody, this came out several years ago, way before the Corona beer rivals sang, all of the major hand tool companies came out with battle axes. And remember I brought this up, they were selling them in like all the big box stores. Now some still have them, others, it was popular and then they took them off the shelves there, they just didn't restock. But whenever they got them, they sold out. So you might want to check your local Lowe's because I found these at Home Depot. We found them at Lowe's. I know we're called them being at Menards. But if the big, fully international, I should say transnational across the whole of the US from one state to the next, Home Depot seemed to be the most consistent for having them. And they make a number of different sizes. S-Wings being, I think, one of the most impressive. But there's others. And I've brought them up. I've got one sitting right here bolted right, or I should say the scabbard is attached underneath the table. And it sits right here. Literally, I can put my hand down and I'm on the handle right now. So all I have to do is move my arm, twist my hand to the right, takes it out of the scabbard and drop down, and I'm extended, so I've already got a certain amount of cleaving thrust from below as I sweep, say in the first part of whatever motion might take place. And then of course I also have my favorite little short sword, Stanley short sword. I've already talked to you guys about that several times. It's actually considered a machete, quote, brackets. But by God, it looks like it really does look like Roman Gladius and Nothing fancy nothing right home about but I guarantee it'll cleave your ass just fine when the time comes Hacking and shopping rules now. I'll tell you what I don't know Ed should be right there. Of course. We just had militia town hall He's been pretty busy for an hour, but let's do at least one. Let's see What shall we do the throw of the dice? Let me grab my list of things to look at here and Ooh car the dangerous We played one of the Dire Straits requests. We had a couple more requests for this one. You know what, for you girls, I appreciate your music requests. Dido White Flag. Let's do that one first, Edward. Dido White Flag. We're not surrendering the country. We will never abandon the republic. This is not a democracy. And so we're not going to let you do that game anymore. That's pretty well finished. But for everybody out there, Dido White Flag. And for everybody listening, remember, we are a limited constitutional republic. We are not a democracy. That's the kosher communist crap being plugged into your brain to try and get you to you know convince you that well they can just you know vote their way out of your your wallet and also you know can destroy or undermine the Constitution of the Bill of Rights most importantly they what they want to do is burn the Bill of Rights well just by arbitrary action on the part of the mass Here we go. I play God is the gray collect and This is LibertyTreeRadio.4MG.com LibertyTreeRadio.org, and of course for a WBCQ, the Planet 6.160, regular shortwave. Please take the time, write us, let us know how you're listening in. PBN PO Box 194, Dexter, Michigan 48130. And again, I'll tell you what Ed, the original artist, although the covers are kind of cool, Sail! We haven't played sail in a while. Actually somebody said, what was the last time you played sail? Yeah, I know it's kind of an interesting song. First time I actually heard it was when we were watching the human fly. The guy that was using a fly suit, which has now become a personal flying suit. You do cliff dropping, gravity sucks, you're always going down. And in the process, of course, you get to a certain point, then you have popped your chute, and then you glide into your target area the rest of the way. But primarily, you drop and physically, it's a flying squirrel outfit. So really cool videos have been put together with that song, Real Life Adventures, it's just the human fly, but also a lot of other cool animes and such too. You're looking for some eye candy to go along with some uric handy, tongue in cheek, dark humor, and a whole lot more. It is Friday. We are headed to the weekend. Before we go farther, I've got to say hi to Camp Emerson. New Camp Stasa, which is overloaded this weekend. There will be no freestyle access this weekend at Camp Stasa. I've got a notice on that just as a heads up. Emmerich or Emerson still are taking people. They can use the rustic and cambabut. Camp Emmerich, New Camp Stasa, Camp Wayland North, the Ogham Aranges, Niagara-Hitcham, same situation. They've got the, in addition to Emmerich, no, it was Emmerich. Hold on, here was Emmerich. That's a good question again. What was the, I think it's Emmerich. Yes, it is. Emmerich has the night vision, and why we couldn't figure that one out. Camp Emmerich has a night vision FTX going on. Nagy Hicham is doing the same thing to take the bleed over. Again, rustic encampment is what's left, but you should be used to doing that anyway if you're properly squared away to deploy. We were planning to fight. Train as you will fight for you, will fight as you have trained. Again, also Fox, Camp Fox, Camp Wolf, the rustics and Fort Benning Michigan and Fort Benning Michigan a lot of work going on this weekend I don't think it'll be so much tactical training as combat engineer work. So whatever is going on there appreciate it guys I gifted a whole bunch of other stuff I think we're into some things next weekend that we'll be able to arc up that way. But keep up the good work and remember if you can volunteer for the micro FM AM rebroadcasting units. You get to be a DJ for an hour or two, however long you want to sign up. But we do rotate people all through the weekend. That way more people have experience because the AM FM station is there plus you have the all powerful shortwave transmitters which we don't to, we don't light up until later. And we have all the rest of our radio tech there because you're a radio monitor at the same time. So you have the CB, two meter, marine radio, et cetera, et cetera. Go ahead, call her. Jump in there, please. Go ahead. I was just gonna bring up the the ham fest that will be going on tomorrow here in Oklahoma City. Yes It's a ham radio basically a flea market for anybody that's not familiar with a ham fest They have several tables people there's some dealers. They're selling new stuff antennas radios whatnot, but there's plenty of older stuff, you know somewhat newer stuff that people are selling you know get rid of or even Pams that have passed away that people were selling their equipment off and you probably get a really good deal This is going to be on the south side of Oklahoma City. It's going to be near the two highways I 44 and I 240 Just to the south or south east of those two highways It's going to be at the O triple C. It's a community college. It stands for Oklahoma Community College I forget what the other one is It's going to be on the west side. There'll be parking lot D as in Delta. The address is 7777 South May. That's 7777 South May. And it's going to be from 8am to 3pm Central Time. And like I said, it's going to be an OCCC here in Oklahoma City on the south side of Oklahoma City near I-240 and I-44. It's a smaller show. It's not super big. Probably, I would say, 100 tables, 200-ish, maybe about 100 tables. So not a super big show, but pretty good turnout. And of course, also, if you do go to Pampest, whether you go this one or not, always stay to the very end because there's people that don't want to haul the stuff back to the cars and they'll probably make a really good deal on the spot because they're packing up and it's one less thing they have to carry back to their car or truck or they leave a box full of miscellaneous stuff because they don't want to haul it back and they just want it to be thrown away and so they just leave it there and put a free sticker on it and it's free to whoever so you can usually pick up free stuff miscellaneous stuff again this is the Oklahoma City Hamfest If you've looked for it online, it's Oklahoma Ham Holiday. I believe it's what the title is and it's going to be at the OCCC, Oklahoma Community College. It's 777-7, South May in Oklahoma City, South Side from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Central Time. I believe tickets are $13. I said $10 the other day, but I think that was the pre-sale. I just looked today. They're $13 to get in. If you pay, I think, $23, you get three five raffle tickets. And they have three grand prize drawings and then hourly prize drawings. At the end of the show, they'll redraw until they get a winner. That doesn't count for the three grand prize. Those ones, you don't have to be present to win. And usually the grand prize is like around $1,000 radio. or somewhere around there. The three prizes are usually like a handheld or two different handhelds or mobile and then a space station hand radio that are pretty good prizes. They even have a second drawing that you have to buy a ticket. It's like a $20 ticket, but they only have 300 of those tickets available. I don't know how many it's left, but it's like a $2,000 yazoo radio. It comes with the antenna. Collects Basically all the way to set up this radio in your house and stuff all the components and everything you need to have it set up and going All in one package for a $20 raffle ticket if you didn't blend it That's one of their main raffles that they do That's all I have more unless you have questions Excellent as a matter of fact again always check that the grab boxes at the end of the show just like you said Guys anything and everything I have walked away with battery banks What handheld radios We actually outfitted a whole unit on the south side went to the Dayton ham fest that's now changed up down there But the Dayton ham fest at the end of the show I picked up enough radios to outfit an entire Wolverine militia unit on the south side of Lansing and upgraded them with you know didn't cost anything It was matter of checking the batteries finding out what needed to be replaced and repaired but about 90% of what was sitting there in the boxes was ready to go. And so you never know what you're going to run into with those. It can be any number of really cool items. And again, even up to and including ham base stations, etc. So you definitely want to peruse and remember whoever gets there first gets it. That's how it works. Tag, it's mine. So I'll tell you what we had another caller go ahead jump in there go ahead There is no way I'd ever hear myself calling anyone your Highness or your majesty. No way You know what they're all right like you said yeah, I subject anybody never will be so You think I'm gonna give you a title of nobility don't think I'll do it to be a boot in the ass and I got a ten and a half wide military for that one so how about Uranus Yeah, well we can send them to and we'll send them to another planet. Yes, that's true And there are many out there some of them quite appropriate by name Okay, so It not a matter if just a matter of when I I think it's rather fascinating going into the weekend here that we had this Dictator show up from Israel and he was yapping at all of us He was yapping at America the barking, you know Jewish Chihuahua was pissing and moaning about, you know, why aren't we following their orders? I believe the number one reason for Netanyahu to be here, we call him Nuttin Honey, it was for the purpose of managing the country without a president because they were kind of wagging their weenie on that one and it's become very obvious that the ring knockers behind the scenes are running this thing. Anybody they thought might be on the menu for management isn't. This whole thing is, you know, gains me... When they tell what it is... Go ahead. When they register it, I'd grab my class and say register this. Yeah. Exactly. Hey Mark. Yeah. Go ahead, caller. I heard a report today that Trump posted on his Truth Social that he was going to annihilate Iran. And I'm pretty sure he met with Satan Yahoo before he said that. My big question, yeah, I know, he's busy licking somebody's dinkus. Can he pull his head from between Netanyahu's ass now? Would that be okay? Because I have no use for any fool that does that kind of crap. It's like, really, why do we need to annihilate Iran? Exactly. Let's look on a map here. Let's go look on a globe. Where is the US? How are we doing with our southern border, Mr. Trump? How are we doing with our southern border? So since we're not really dealing with our southern border and we've got a whole lot of troops that we can use, I say, and here's what the Jews are gonna tell you you can't do. I say we militarize the southern border and say hockey puck you to the Israeli promoted international open border policy, which by the way did not start with the pettlestiver meat puppet Biden. This goes back 30 years. We've been fighting this every step of the way in which they stated a first first thing they did is actually 45 years ago. What they did is they're part of a special UN treaty to quote unquote demilitarize the Mexican-American border so that we did not control the border. And so all of the garrison units that used to traditionally be on the border at specific bases were the first to be redirected and shut down or again minimized in terms of manpower. And it was very obvious when I was at Fort Wegotcha, there was a civil war inside the system between the Border Patrol and the US military and its orders with regard to the border. The US military was supposed to turn a blind eye to the invasion that was happening in the late 70s that you didn't hear anything about. and the Border Patrol actually tried to step in and do their job. Well, part of their job included the Sierra, the Hachuca range. Go down and look at where Sierra Vista is and Fort Hachuca. And when you find it, you'll notice that just to the south is the Mexican border. Well, guess what? The Border Patrol originally, on every one of these bases, had what was the equivalent to like a cavalry garrison located on base. They were given accommodations and then of course there was budget money had to be spent. Well, you know what the first thing the traders did? They wanted to kick the border patrol off of the US military bases because most of the ones on the border literally were on the border. And so I talked to a lot of the, I didn't have any money to spend. I was sending all my money to Nancy and the kids. So I found all kinds of free things to do, you know, like check things out and ask questions. So I spent a lot of time talking with the Border Patrol when I was down there. Interestingly enough, I thought their camouflage was really cool, and you can still buy this paint, by the way. One of the best camels that worked down there was interior trunk paint, like we used to use for the inside of Buick's, Chevy's, Ford's, for the big trunks, the big ass trunks. Remember, there used to be like a dapple paint. that had a number of different color flecks in it. The base color was brown or kind of a green gray or gray. Well, the green gray in that dapple pattern is what they painted all their 1514 months that the Border Patrol were using down there, and they were phantoms. They blended in, you couldn't even see them almost standing on top of them. If you turned and weren't looking and the guy drove a vehicle in, you might see the guy when he got out of it because he was walking towards you from about maybe 100 yards away, but you couldn't see the vehicle. It was really impressive and it was a stupid, cheap paint job. I walked up and looked and I said, where have I seen this before? He goes, oh, it's trunk paint. Really? How long have you guys been doing it? Oh, we've been doing it for a few years. And then I got to hear the story about the treason that was going on. with the DOD cooperating with UN policy against America. And that's what all this crap has been around about ever since. So guess what? Netanyahu is there to tell you all about how we need to worry about, you know, Iran-estadians. They're Iran-estadians! Oh, yeah, well, you know what? Piss off. Iran's over on the other side of the planet. What are we doing over there? Why are you hockey-pucking with Iran? We have no business. The only reason they want to do that, by the way, do you think we're going to bomb? Tell you what, we'll figure out real quick when this war kicks off. Remember, there's the largest population of Jews beyond Israel in the Middle East is in Iran. So what do you want to bet if supposedly we went to war? There's certain cities we probably couldn't bomb. If we did, the Iranians, all they have to do is watch the synagogues and the Jewish population in those cities. to tell when they're going to get bombed, if they were going to get bombed. Why? Because the Jews would be given heads up, just like on 9-11 when the Jews didn't show up when the World Trade Center was attacked. They were told not to be at work. Why? Because the Israelis were the ones who did the bombing. They were the ones who did the attack. Just that simple so the same would be true with any kind of treachery or betrayal going on We know with the Iranians taniens versus the US places that wouldn't get hit At least not right away until they could get the Jewish population shifted sideways would be the cities that the Jewish synagogues are in in Iran
