permits to own a gun, permits to start a business or to build a place for war. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no hold of money spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't, and your Christian values can't be taught. According to the stick, 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 given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country deep. 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. 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? Those sons of the Republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right. Pray to God as Iowoki vanished in the midst of whence he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. He stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep. What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? This service is provided in high definition by free conference call HD.com. There are 13 participants in the conference. The recording has started. Please announce yourself. There are some pretty good deals on magazines. Now, by the time you've got shipping added back, it's kind of closer to what you were already paying before. But shipping you've got to pay no matter what. That's the given bite. Some have free shipping. Most can't afford to do that. Overhead doesn't allow for it. The cost of the inventory, et cetera. Things aren't getting cheaper. They're getting more expensive. So again, magazines, magazines, and more magazines. The A.R. is still the cheapest on the pile right now. Number two is still the AK-47. There are some mags out there for about $8 apiece. Steel Korean and Korean, they work just fine. Also, I've had a lot of people asking about carbine. It's pretty straightforward. There's only one New manufacturer that's really consistent and that's Korea again the 15 rounders and the 30 rounders If you're looking for carbine mags, that's where you're probably going to have to go I mean if you want to buy original you're talking ridiculous prices because we're way down the road past the last war production for the carbine The good thing is Korea you had used the carbine after we were done with it and they've sold it and maintain The inventories for a lot of other countries and rental revolution operations or mercenaries that use the carbine because the carbine is all over the Pacific. It's all over Asia. Granted, there's been plenty of time for other weapons to crop up, but amazingly enough, the carbine is very resilient, but it's also very popular. It's the perfect size weapon for a person with a smaller stature. The carbine to the Vietnamese is basically in scale, what the Garand is, to the average American both in height and weight. So although they're not the only ones, the Thais, Cambodians, the Oceans, there's carbines laying around in the back 40 all over the place, filling Korea, caters to that market. So their magazines work. Go ahead, we could jump in there. Yeah, I kind of wait for you to hit a break, but most people have audio now Quick damage report whatever this power charge was it seems like it dumped the battery on the battery backup I've got a flash battery light sign on this But it does show that it's charging back up, but it's got a bad battery signal signal on it now after that power surge Interesting. Well, again, if we need to replace... Well, I can go to Bad and Reak Joe's and get that replaced. Very good. Yeah, I don't know how much it's going to cost. But I'll get that... If it doesn't charge properly, I'll get that information and I'll let everybody know. But that was interesting. We had a literally power search site, so everything got brighter. And we lost audio on the conference line. We had to reset the conference line to get the audio back. Took a few minutes, guys, I've called answer that, but that is what happened. Everything came back online. Even the battery, like I said, it looks like it's charging back up. But if whatever the surge was caused the battery to go down to nothing. Well, again, if we do need some help with that, let me know too, so we can help take care of it as needed if there's something It will be on budget. For everybody out there, again, well, this is one of the reasons we do have other requests for supporting the network whenever we do. It's just to make sure the expenses are covered. So we'll let everybody know how that develops. And Ed's pretty well caught it right away. Of course, it happened right at the top of the hour. The 5 o'clock block for here, but that would be 4 o'clock for Texas. So it's not normal, and everybody cuts out of business. Somebody decided to flier the system. Anyway, a couple of the things going on right now. The FEMA is starting to show up with all of its carpetbaggers in force and the worst type of panty waste that anybody could imagine showing up to help someone. The reports coming in are that these characters are just a bunch of effeminate dainties. pretty much they've been given their two-hour seminar via the internet on how to be a FEMA rat and their incompetence is outstanding. Apparently one situation, FEMA took one of the fire departments along and a couple other groups of people When they went up to one of the smaller towns to wag their weenie up there and everybody spread out was doing their job FEMA just decided they wanted to go home So they left the fire department up there on the ridge And they had to figure out how to get back. And whole FEMA didn't recollect that maybe they had some responsibility and they just didn't like being dirty and all with all the peasants up there. So they took off and left the fire department behind and so now the fire department got smart and said why don't you just kick rocks and get your ass out of our community. And so FEMA was booted out of that area. This is happening more and more with every one of the effeminate and satanic peto queers in their little packs that are showing up. Some people are satanic peto queers, so I'm sure they enjoy their company. Probably they bring a little 8 year old boy along in a cage just for resuscitation for the petos and queers that maybe they are. They know where they probably do live. After all, they're kind of rubbing each other's butts constantly. Everybody else has pretty well had enough. The big thing here again is that there are other organizations. Now something else I heard that's not good. Now I have not heard this about Grindstone Ministry. They sound like they're taking pretty much everything, but the other group, and forgive me Nancy rattled it off here, apparently they don't want you to send them your used clothes. If you have clothes to donate, the people that are receiving the clothes are demanding new clothes. The people that are receiving them, as in the 501c3, are demanding new clothes. Now, I don't know about you, but right now, you don't have enough of anything. This is something where I have I have used clothes. You can't tell that they're used I mean I have I pick up bins bags and boxes of clothing Constantly in fact if I weren't right here doing this I'd be sorting out a whole bunch of really fantastic Carhartt items. I just got for free and a whole bunch of t-shirts and you know pants and They are they look like if somebody bought them somebody bought them, but they didn't wear them Okay, if they did maybe it was once and then they were laundered or whatever, but it's fascinating That if I were to donate to them I would be donating Pre-packaged bundles by size that I have here having heard what I just did it's a good thing I wasn't stupid or foolish enough to send the stuff down to that particular group and because that would be a waste of my resources, I guarantee they would be just as wasteful with the materials as FEMA would be. When somebody starts talking about being particular, let me point something out. Even if the clothes were a little tired, what's half of what you're going to be doing right now if you're up there in that area that got hit? You're going to be getting dirty again, aren't you? Dirty work. Would you rather have one brand new pair of clothes or would you rather have 10 pairs of okay clothes because you know that every time you get done doing the work you're going to stink. Which would you rather have? I know what I'd rather have. But you know my problem with this is people notoriously will be, not only will they not husband what they have but they'll waste it. Go ahead, jump in there. I used to do some work with a mission that used to go down to Pineville, North Carolina. And you're talking about real tar shack stuff. And previously, about a year or two before, the guy that I was going down with in the truck, he brought some clothes to them. It was like a 1970s pumpkin orange leisure suit. And the kid that had it had grown up in the two years. But he came down wearing that suit and he was so proud to still have wear it. You know, by then it was high waters and short arms. But we came to drop stuff off and he came down to help us unload the truck. And he was just pleased as punch to have that nice orange suit, even though it didn't fit him. And even though it was probably really uncomfortable and not something that he really should be working in, but he wanted to show that he still had it and that he valued it over. Right. See, that's my problem with, well, again, this is why when they hit the switch they know that a lot of people are going to go into brain fart stupid. because in a crisis situation, what's the first thing you hear everybody saying? I've been watching a lot of videos now. There's some people who are charlatans, I know that, and I can usually kind of tell, I lost everything! Well, you didn't really lose everything, like the one guy. No, there's two containers down the valley there, just about 0-200 yards, because I can see them, because you pointed the camera that way. And the house did move 60 yards, but the house is still sitting right there. which means that there's something in there. I don't know because you haven't shown any pictures. Now I agree that I could help you, but again, there are people where the house is flat, flinders, and gone. If they had a garage or a can, like a storage can or something, it's downriver 10 miles. Now those people, they did lose everything. And there's a difference between the two. Now the other thing I would point out, and I'm going to say this again, a lot of people bought, decided they were going to buy a house on the ridge. You could do the same thing here in Michigan and make the same mistakes. Did you check to see where does the water flow, number one? Number two is let's just say that we didn't know. Let's say nobody had a clue and this is like nothing that really in memory and living memory for anybody, even a generation or two back, this doesn't exist. Once this happens, my first attitude is unless I'm gonna sell the property, I just put this house on, this shack on, and the cans. And when I say cans, I'm talking transport containers. You know, the ones you can buy for anywhere from one to $3,000. He had a couple of them. I'm going to look at what just happened and go, wow, well, that part of my real estate is obviously part of a cyclic flood channel and floodplain. Now, it's not really a floodplain because that implies that water rises, and that's not what's happening. Water is rising only as it's falling. It's going downhill. And then the mudslide idea. Well, you see where the mudslide is? OK, now look at where it isn't. You want to know where you put your house? Remember, in this case, the little piggy who built the house of straw has got a second chance because the wolf didn't eat him. He didn't have to run down the road to the other brother piggy's wood house, which by the way is also going to get beat up. But the fact is you look at the situation. And if you are going to stay, if this hasn't discouraged you, and you have so many acres, you know, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 acres, well, you better start looking for the piece of real estate that didn't get affected by this, and that looks like that's where the homestead's going. Right? Hey, Dad. Go ahead. Jump in there, please. We're not picking on people either. I do know some photos that were shared in the gilded. of somebody's stash that had been flooded. And my first response was, okay, just take a look at the photograph. You can tell the water line didn't get up too high because the cotton shirts on the bottom row of the rack didn't get absorbed up to the neck. You know, if the mud had been in there, then that high would have ruined those. First thing you, I was going through it, it's like first thing you want to do is pull the clothes out of there that are dry. get them out and then worry about the clothes that are wet. You may not be able to dry them because you don't have power to dry. It depends on your situation. But the sooner you get them out of that situation, you start moving on it, the better. The more equipment you're going to save, most of the stuff in there is going over, it's like ammo cans and whatnot. Well, the ammo cans would do their job. They would keep most things in them dry, take it out, clean it off, dry it up. Most everything in those photos that we saw, I said there's not much there that I'd say was not salvageable. Maybe some of the electronics that were stored there before. And that's what made me quite even be able to fix roads. Wet roads can be hung in a line or a tree branch and dried in the sun. Right, exactly, clothing. The other thing here real quick, now this is going to be something for everybody that you're going to know what I'm going to do here. I told you so. I told you so. And let me do it again. I told you so. The military uses a three-tier protection system for everything that it stores. Now part of it is shock and, you know, defense against transportation, part of it. But each container typically offers weatherization against just what happened here. Military equipment or military packaging systems are designed so literally if you had to you leave the stuff out in the open. That would be your worst case scenario. But even if you did, the packaging system is such with the way that you put it together with a multi-defense system that it's unlikely that all of those, you know, all the protection will fail. If it does, it's because something's been crushed, folded, spindled, and mutilated. So that's a loss that you have to accept. That's something that's going to happen. But even if only the package is compromised, this allows you to prioritize. You can see from the container if something's been hit, if something's been damaged, if something has been, again, immersed even. So anything that isn't, you're able to very quickly rate it. And, of course, if it's the bad situation where one minute you were right next to the creek and you were 10 feet above the creek's edge and back about 100 feet or 100 yards, then today the creek is as wide as where your house was and on the other side of the creek just as far cut in and now is four times as deep as it was, which is what we see with some of these things, well, there's not a whole lot you can do, but maybe somebody down range will get your stuff. unless it got ground pounded and crunched, which is as likely as not. As I said, those look at the size of those rocks in these gullies and in these creek beds, those things were moving. They were upstream somewhere and anything that came in contact between two of them, well, it didn't even barely slow that rock down at all. And all the others that were with it and all the tonnage of water that was moving too. So it's like a big tumbler. But mostly again, Ziploc bags, Ziploc bags, Ziploc bags. I have been religious about that because of where we're headed. And what you just saw is an example of why. Now, remember that if we have to cash material away from you, the three-tier system of packaging is going to work. If I do stuff in ammo cans, Ed knows this. I put everything in Ziploc bags that goes in the ammo cans. I've done that for decades. Let me give you an example. When we put SKS chest pouches together as bandoliers, they were cheap. They were so cheap, they were a giveaway. What I would do is buy a case of the Chinese SKS stripper clips by themselves, because you get them in the same case the ammo comes in. Open up the cans, load up all the ammo on stripper clips. Put 3 stripper clips in a high quality zip lock bag. Take those, put them inside the pocket of the chest pouch. Now we're going to use it like a bandolier. By the way, because they were so cheap, I put a spare oiler. And I also put a spare cleaning kit that normally is in the buttstock of the SKS in that little pocket on the side of the chest pouch. I didn't put any oil in those because the oils, because again, we don't want to compromise and also create a problem with the ammo. But even those items were in a small snack size Ziploc bag. Then we take the whole thing and fold it. So let it overlap slightly and then I take a large industrial slide zip-lock bag put the whole thing in that and then the whole thing goes in a 20 millimeter ammo can and you can stack six comfortably inside a 20 millimeter can side by side by side by side by side just like you would when you open up an ammo can with bandoliers or chest rigs in them. You know, chest rigs, forgive me, uh, stripper clip pockets. And the idea is that you're opening up the can, it's raining, you can grab the one you need, well it was raining, you had to grab it, because if you shut it, it's not going to turn into a sauna, a rust bucket, because you forgot that there was water in there. Instead, it doesn't have to be a normal can. We've talked about it before. You don't have to pay a lot of money for these, they're easy to get. A two-liter bucket. They're built the same way as the food grade buckets of the same size. Most of them have a lid that stays on even when you open it. You just clip it back down. I've been using those for my tools down here. And just using the school buckets and things. Every last one we can get our hands on. If I see it along the road, even if it doesn't have a lid, it gets grabbed. Guess what? At some point I have more lids. They stack organized you can label them what's inside of them on three sides that way You know matter what side you look at it at you can figure out what's in it? May I said the one the one image that? Was there in the in the gilded that I commented on about the shirt if the shirts on the bottom run? Were packed up in the side of some kind of a container like that that was watertight in a plastic bag inside thing and just stacked along that bottom wall, all those shirts would have been fine. Every last moment. Right. Well, actually, all the clothing I'm doing right now, that's exactly what we're doing. We're bagging it up. Ziploc bagging it up. I've got a source for industrial bags. Guys, I've told you before, look around in your area. Somebody's got something they're shipping in from China, or maybe from Germany, or maybe from Canada, or whatever. And if you ask your friends that are working in certain sites, it's amazing what you might find. And those bags, they open them up, take the stuff out, throw the bag away. Now, can you have them? Probably, because if they take them away, if somebody carries them away, they don't fill up their garbage. They don't fill up their dumpster. So the advantage here is that you don't have to buy them necessarily. You can usually look around and find a source. and a ready source with multiple sizes of bags. The other thing here, you can use sealamil. And in fact, a lot of people I know are probably punching into the conversation, well, I will use sealamil. And that's great too. You can make your own sealamil bags from VisiQueen. And you can make them any size you want. And if you do that, a lot of guys used to, when sealamils first came out, they were the cats, meow, for guys in the field who knew they weren't coming back for a while. And at least for as long as they didn't open up that pouch, whatever they had in there was going to be dry. And so that was one of the big innovations because you could do it privately. Personally, you could take your socks, put them in little feel-a-meal pouches, take your underpants, take your auxiliary cold weather gear as far as small items that you're going to replace like the liner. A lot of guys that carried M65 field jacket, they carried two liners. And after one to get loaded up and dirty and sweaty and salty, you take that off and you open up that ceiling mill pouch and look at that. There's a brand new field jacket liner. And they compress really nice because those were Holofil. When you open them up, they expand again. Congratulations. It looked just like they did when you started. And you also, remember, take the plastic bag, don't tear it apart, cut it and put the smelly, nasty one inside it. You got Ziploc bags, put it inside that one for the time being until you can wash it and clean it. But it's not going to be something that compromises all the rest of your equipment. See, it serves more than one purpose, inbound, outbound. So again, in this case, we have shining examples of what can happen. And, by the way, if everybody, for those who are in our camp, yes, there's no doubt this is weather warfare, period. I don't care what some other fool thinks or tries to be politically correct. Well, you know, people are saying, ha, ha, ha, that it's weather manip, yeah, it's weather manipulation, it's okay. We know they do it. We've talked about it forever. So what have you done to prepare for it? This is why I've talked about this. There are so many obvious reasons for weatherizing your equipment. Not the least of which is just better service time in the field. It'll last longer. You'll be better off physically. But as we can see here, if you cash or if you have material stored, If anything does survive, it is less likely to be compromised. Everything that I can right now like in food goes into buckets. I buy every bucket, in fact I got a source down the road here for brand new, unissued food grade buckets for a dollar a piece full five gallon with a lid. In fact, I get them right from the guy who literally makes them. And he actually is one of the biggest bucket companies in the Midwest. Now what's interesting is he can access different shapes. And he didn't think to get the others, because everybody wants the five-gallon round pails. So now we're looking at getting the pastry square-type five-gallon pails, which are more efficient for space storage. You got a voice. I heard a caller. Who do we have? We got Tom. Hey, I want to let you know that the applesauce is here and we can see you guys come. Excellent. We'll be calling you this evening still and then we'll probably have somebody right there over the next two days. If not, sooner. We'll see. In fact, again, thank you. Appreciate that, Tom. Another thing to remember is, in this case, we have materials that are stored in an industrial package. However, what we're probably going to do with the percentages, those buckets that I just mentioned, will probably repackage them into the sealed plastic containers. Again, because they're that much more survivable and convenient if we have to unask the AO, move. Also again distribute because the other half of this is getting the stuff to where somebody might need it. Now somebody asked if we were going to transfer any of our food. There has been a great discussion about this and it's because of a combination of things not the least of which is shipping stuff halfway across the country and then having the buffoons a take it but also people foolishly surrendering it. If we're there and we have materials, nobody's taking it from us. Do you understand that? We've already made our decision. Yeah, that's not going to work. You get your sorry ass down the road, this is ours, not yours, and we choose what we're going to do with it. And we didn't donate it to anybody. We're giving it as we choose to someone. And that's where I have a problem with a lot of these people. Everybody's still doing this ask permission crap. And that's where, again, once the sycophant, satanic, pedo-queer shows up and then realizes you're willing to bend over and lick your own arse at their order, oh, they just go crazy. Especially the froulps, the sycophant froulps, the nutcases. And that's what you see gravitating to all of these positions, to all these jobs, which is why, under no circumstances. It will be just like Kingsley. They're in Dexter after the tornado. Come up. Well, it looks like you guys still need some help, but you're doing okay And we were given some money to help the community, but you're not getting any Literally showed up at the house at the end of the driveway To tell us that and that chicken shit his brothers are gonna get coming after my dad because of the charger that was in the front yard That was mine. Trying to steal the charger. Well again, the idea is we weren't given any that was number one We weren't asking for anything No, but they still have been out of their way to show up Yes, they went out of their way to show up to try to rub it in our face that, well, we were giving stuff for the community, but we're not giving it to you. Gee, they really left the eye wasn't there. Well, no, no, we were actually, like I said, guys, when they were doing that, we were ahead of the curve and everything and had no interest in asking permission, asking for anything that they had. We've helped other people that were there way ahead of the curve, I mean way ahead of all the bullshit. It's the same thing we're seeing right now. It took days, in fact a week, for most of the institutions to even get up off their heart, you know, dead ass. I mean, they showed up to look around, and it's the same thing that's happening here with FEMA. Oh, the FEMA creatures are starting to waddle out in amongst the peasantry, but why are they doing it now? Well, because you're probably, you know, the ones that are dead are dead. They don't have to get their hands dirty. The ones that were sick and gonna die, they're dead. And if they had their way, think about it. They'd be walking in on corpses. A week later, are you kidding me? This is why, like I said, I don't have a problem with the effeminate queer pedos doing this to the grown-on. Seriously, I'm done with them. As far as I'm concerned, I'll sit there and watch them wheeze their last breath and I won't bend a knee for them. I promise that. But as far as them interfering with me helping people who want to take care of and help themselves, don't get in my way. Don't think you're going to steal from me because of your incompetence. That example that I gave Deb wasn't because we needed it. It's that these are the people that are in charge. Like that sheriff who went up and confiscated that independent distribution point to take it down under his control. That way it can be accountable to him. It's not so it can be accountable to him. It's that way, I'm sorry, I don't know the guy, but going from what we know, from what they claim, to what they try to do, to the lady who was running the thing, claiming that she was stealing the supplies that were donated to her. That's Kingsley. He'll get control of it. He'll sit there on it in the police station. And when somebody comes who doesn't like to get supply and help, we won't have help for you. Right. It's the same thing that happened with what's already happened with people filing for that $750. Well, guess what? Most everybody that's filed for anything, if they've authorized anything yet, it's for half of what was claimed. $300 seems to be the average, you know, we're going to get them everybody $750. But it appears that if you do stand up, you know, you hop on one leg, rub your tummy, pat your head, blink your eyes, you know, do the cow cow, that the average amount that they're authorizing is $300. So, as one person said, that doesn't even cover the food in the refrigerator in the kitchen, let alone everything else in the house. But, again, what were you expecting? You're dealing, well, I know what they're expecting. These people worship the regime, that's the problem. They worship the machine. It could do no wrong, and everybody has their epiphany. What have I said a million times in this program? At a given point, everybody gets B-slapped out of their stupor. and they find out how the machine really works. Now, we have a plan. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Number one plan, the system is not in the plan. They're not part of any of our planning. In fact, they held up certain activities which, you know, if other people had done their job in a timely fashion, everything would have been settled, dealt with, and repaired in half the time. That's just how it is. Now, I'm not worried about it. Again, that's water under the dam, over the dam, under the bridge, take your pick, whichever you want to go there. But the fact is that you can see the writing on the wall. So everybody better be squared away to deal with the problem at hand. We need to make sure whatever we do have stored We've got a bunch of lessons here. Well, what's your floodplain? What's the possibility of a floodplain situation or the water rising beyond normal capacity, normal limits in your area? Now, for myself, with the rolling terrain, well, example, if Dexter were to be underwater, Ann Arbor would be about 40 or 50 feet underwater. So I'm not expecting, say, Dexter to be underwater any time soon. Can we have flooding? To a limited degree, and obviously if you had the kind of rain you had there, you would have extreme and excessive backup before you have full runoff. So, but is that likely? Well, not, but example two is like the people that were in the ridge here. I guarantee grandpa or you know, gramps or you know, anybody who had probably originally settled the area was better at surveying the real estate and evaluating the threats. And so those people would not have been caught like this or if they were once, they never were again. I will point out, as I said several times last week here, there's a whole bunch of written stories that were very popular and in fact because of when they were written, which was in the 1800s through to the early 1900s, they were translated over into movies. And one of the big themes, as I've said many times, is there was old Molly purebred and she was a baby when the dam broke or the river rose and everybody was swept away. and only little Polly was the only one left and she survived to be raised by a stranger and then eventually she found out by, you know, information about where she'd been found and what happened. But she had a cousin and there was all kinds of melodrama and rightly so. And it was a monumental story that was repeated many, many, many times because realistically it was repeated many, many times. Nothing we're seeing here is new in any way, shape, or form. Except that we are in modern times and I guess the difference is, it's obvious what happened as I said. The first one was such a blatant attack in the Carolinas, that was no accident. That was fully intentional and it was sculpted. The second one was simply enhanced. The one that torpedoed in from the Gulf. Guys, that's the same. That's the avenue of attack and invasion by hurricanes for as long as that place has existed before man was writing history for that area of the planet. So again, just as a heads up, the big thing is, did they enhance the attack? Oh, I'm sure they did. The math is demonstrated. Otherwise, it makes no sense as to why and or how. of the storm acted the way that it did and there isn't any explanation that makes any sense except for understanding the enhancements in the technology, the development of the technologies that are available that have created these kinds of problems and it's man-made. It's a man-made enhancement. Again, solution, well first rule, when an arrow is coming at you, at the very least you can step left or right because arrows don't make left and right hand turns. Oh wait a minute, except if they're the arrow up there in the North Carolina and Tennessee where they're on their way out to sea and then they make a j-hook and come back in and nuke strike an area. So we can't say that it can't be done because you just saw it. Same thing happened at Acapulco recently, Mark. It came ashore and hit it and then left and then it came back and hit it again. I don't think I hit you enough, which is exactly how it acted. I think I need to hit you again. One more time. Just to be safe. Aye, Chingawa. So, and again, this is where it's not accidental that these things are happening the way they are. We can, okay, we understand that. Now we're not gonna panic about it. We are going to come up with solutions. We are going to have answers. We have to work at this. Most important is right down to the personal level. We need more water supply. Oh, excuse me. Something else just went sideways here. Hold on. We need water supply and depth. We need water purification always. This demonstrates why you need, if at the very least in your bug out bag backpack, you need more water purification. It doesn't mean it's overlapping systems. There's no such thing as having too much. Water is life. The other thing is, don't just think about, well, I got to take care of myself. You're going to hook up with somebody else, or you're going to be aligned or maybe allied with somebody else. You don't know what the conditions are going to be when you get to the other end. So many hundreds of gallons of purification is good, but if all of a sudden you have three, four, five, six people that are dependent upon what you do have, that having a reserve or a surfioc is a very good idea. Again, also, you don't know what may happen to your equipment. Mistakes can be made, prior proper planning, preventing piss poor performance, you have backups to backups. It's just common sense. It's just that simple. And somebody wants to argue against that, go ahead. And if you want to listen to them, go ahead. I don't have a problem with that. You know where you're going to learn a lesson? When it hits. When it happens you find out problem or was a good idea But I didn't think I'd need this even though we have extensively talked about it Not with a we don't benefit other than that. Everybody is better off We're not going to when this happens you people will all be so far away from me and my myself from you Whatever it is that you have to take care of in the immediate present. I'm not going to be there It's just that simple in fact even if we were all coming together In an initial action, each of you has to manage the epic that you are living. So there isn't any argument. I'm always fascinated because people start making stupid statements. I'm talking about you guys. But I've listened to stuff that's been generated by fools. And all these fools, on the one hand, tell you, you know, even the ones who are to a degree, though, of course, it's because the government finally admitted they, well, everybody's doing something, I better make it look like I'm concerned. Yeah, you only need a three-day supply of anything. And after that, everything will be fine. If you believe that, you really do believe that? I do believe in a 72-hour kit, but my 72-hour kit is good for a week. In fact, most any of your 72-hour kits would actually be good for more than 72 hours anyway if you were smart. If you, you know, husband what you have. Remember we talked about this. You've got to manage what you possess. But the biggest problem is, again, people will listen to other individuals who are being deceitful, and they'll be convinced that, oh, there's going to be more down the road, so let's just guzzle this down. Let's just gobble this up. and let's not manage anything and then when the time comes and the feces hits the oscillating device, well I should say the reality of what's going to transpire here in a moment takes place and all of a sudden everybody's in, you know, gnashing of teeth, running of hair mode. Why don't I have it? Why is it? Well because you hate it sir, you hate it all. You could have probably stretched that out a bit but you didn't. And congratulations because of that. Yeah, you're in trouble now. Not much I can do about that. And again, you're so far away. Time and distance, people. There's only so much we're going to be able to do to take care of each other. Most of it, you're going to have to take care of yourself. The other thing is with cash, cash is the same situation. Now, I will point this out. You know that if you were trained in cashing equipment, we even have underwater caches. You do understand that, right? Have you ever seen an underwater cache? Now, in these creeks and streams and areas of flood and high energy expansion of the water mass, nothing's going to anchor anywhere. But go look it up, and there are techniques for doing underwater caching. And again, most everything I've told you about here or giving an idea, this would be a, you know, maybe this would be a good idea, with regard to multiple layers of protection are all applied to water caches. And it works. In fact, it's one of the many ways and many places most people would not suspect to look for food reserves, ammunition, and or equipment. However, you can't just anchor it and have a blue barrel or something sitting there in the water because when the water settles and stays relatively clear, huh, what's that blue looking thing sitting there that isn't like it's stuck in the mud, it looks more like it's anchored to something. Huh, and there's something else attached to it. Huh, I wonder what that is. So you also have to still consider camouflaging whatever it is that you cache. You have to think ahead. Prior proper planning prevents this poor performance. So again, ideas. Now, another thing here, communications. I still hear this dribble about, well, Space Link is fantastic. It's great. But you know what? Nobody is truly discussing and I guarantee that they've got everybody conditioned to, oh, you don't need a radio. You need Star Link. You've got to have the internet. If you don't have the internet, you can't play. If you can't play, you're not living. You need you need toys you need have games and toys you need to have pacifiers if you don't have a pacifier You you won't survive not without that pacifier so again radio communications and again for a very obvious reason no middleman I Cannot emphasize that enough no middle man Anytime somebody else is between you and a process, it's guaranteed that if they want to shut it off or if they're told to shut it off, although they're standing for you, well, all of a sudden, government's ham hand shows up. You know what happens? They just collapse. They'll just fold. So you need direct personal communications. That should be your priority for everybody out there. I don't care who you are. Of course, while on the other side, no, you don't need that. If you're my enemy, oh yeah, you're smart. You don't need that stupid stuff. But for my allies, every last one of you, you need personal, direct communications technology, ASAP, in hand, ready to operate. And again, CB, Marine radio, two meter, they do have two meter, I have heard that they're using a two meter system, which is good. but you want multiple solutions. Why? Your enemy is trying to figure out how to do damage to you. You are seeing this with homeland Succuridi and FEMA constantly. You cannot and do not want all your eggs in one basket. If it's in one basket or if it's only in one system, then they block or shunt it and all of a sudden you're back to zero. So you need tiers of preparation, tiers of communication. Personal, tactical, and strategic. So personal with radio, FRS, CB, FM radio, there's all kinds of FM radios out there still hanging around. And then after that, you're looking at intermediate, which would be, again, CB can be local, but it also can reach exceptionally great distance. It's purely a matter of how adept you are at operating your equipment. And there again, the idea is that you're able to talk out beyond just the ridge or just the valley. Long range is always looking up to ham, which is, you know, again, go up and down the radio spectrum there and take your pick, whatever you think you're gonna want to use. But you do have to have somebody listening in order for the equipment to work. So you've got to create the net or again, motivate other people to connect their technology. I'm waiting until I get my cell phone back. You mean you're waiting until hell freezes over? Wow, and you're gonna be telling me and lamenting about how you just, you know, can't get anything done. I feel alone, you know, at the very least, you know what's cool about CB radio? You don't really ever feel alone, do you? Somebody always is piping in their two cents worth. So again, yeah, it's cool. That's the neat thing about radio. Granted, you got to govern yourself because everybody's gonna hear what you say. Go ahead, jump in there, caller. Hey, where are you boys? Yeah, yeah. Well, you're a little, a little fuzzy, but go ahead. Well, let me take it off this just a sec. All right, how about now? There we go. You're cleaner now. Go ahead. All right. Hey, I'm glad you brought up the communications. I was wanting to bring it up last week, but, uh, anyhow, regarding, uh, if, um, things start to kick off here, um, and we're wanting to tune in, is it, are we dependent on on repeaters to get tuned in? You mean for Liberty Tree Radio? If we were to do more? There would be a number of different options we're not switched to. Well, we actually have a few things that are on standby, including shortwave. If we were to do shortwave, we have transmitters that could talk to half the planet sitting here in Michigan. One of the antenna arrays that we have, which is actually one of the highest points, it's very quietly stationed, so it's an eight mile long array. It's an octagon. We built it back in the 90s. If we turn that on, if everybody knew where to tune in, which is the problem, we can't really, we don't want, well, we can go up and down the radio dial too on that. But with conventional, what is considered commercial shortwave, like WBCQ or any of the others you might be thinking of. We could transmit as long as we wanted to or until they bombed it and it'd be very likely they'd bomb it. But that would be a shout system. In other words, we use it, we get out as much information as we can and in reality the way we set it up is we have a couple of relatively dirty transmitters that would actually be broadcasting at more than just the shortwave frequency designated. And they're not on site per se. We have a couple of different techniques for hooking the units up, but they'd be zeroed on. Eventually they'd find where they were. It wouldn't take that long. Local rebroadcasting would be done with some of the other allied rebroadcasting systems that are already up. Like, the UltraNet system is not on the regular internet in any way, shape, or form. Now it's a hodgepodge as far as where it's located. Go ahead. I didn't hear the callers' full question. Something about is Liberty Tree radio dependent on repeaters? Let him ask the question. Go ahead, Carl. Ask the question. If I'm right here, I'm the one who deals with it. Yeah, no, I was just kind of building off of what Mark was talking about regarding repeaters. Communications? No, communications, correct. No, I was just, if you guys were to continue the hour during, you know... Well, like Jeff was saying, we have... We have options. The internet right now is just a good way for us to reach people that otherwise we wouldn't normally be able to reach. Liberty Trail Radio actually started a micro FM network. It was part of the M52 corridor running up the state of Michigan and down into Ohio. Camp Stasa was one of the points along the way that had a transmitter, Camp North Star. And that stuff you guys that are listening on the internet probably have no clue about unless you were in Michigan because that was a Michigan radio network. We've also been part of the Possum Net on ham radio. We've been part of the Patriot Net on ham radio. Also the Great Lakes communications network. Let's see. Because right now I'm down in Texas, so that's not as easy for me to hop on as just me. We broadcast stuff that people ask me to. Yeah, and it shows that, is there any way to, you know, look up alternative, what do you call it, communications that you guys might have set up, like on Discord, something like that? Well, we have the militia SOP manual, which if you look in the manual, there is actually an index with communication frequencies that are public frequencies that people use. And what I'm assuming, Dad, that's still in the SOP manual, isn't it? In the one SOP it is, I'd have to double check to see what they just printed. I don't think anything was excluded. One of the things that was mentioned here, there are a number of shortwave networks that are not in the mainstream or the main channels of communication. PossumNet, for instance, is made up of a whole bunch of long time ham radio operators. And they also have a number of people who sound like ham operators, but are not. I'll just be honest. They just do a good job of acting like the natives. because we use frequencies that are not as popular and that's one thing I've argued for years needs to be the priority. The most popular frequencies for clarity and you know again minimal fuzz are hoarded by a handful of individuals who purely are there to be curmudians to everybody and anybody else. So you're better off staying off the beaten path. Let's explain everybody that to everybody from the beginning. And for that reason also, you need a full spectrum ham system because we go down into the basement and up into the attic from the bottom to the top of the mechanism. And the reason for that is to stay away from all of the other critters out there that otherwise would just be an anal retentive control freak. It's purely trying to cause problems. I'm going to throw an option up there, but I'm not going to fully recommend this because I'm not familiar enough with your system how it works. There's a company in Michigan that is promoting cross-country two-way communication radio, but it's not two-way communication radio. The wording in that ad is a lie, and I'm going to warn you about that right now, because they're providing you with a free service for hosting it. With me, it's being relayed either on a satellite or it's being relayed over the internet in some way to get it across country to the position where your other radio is for that. quote unquote two way radio to work. But if you're looking for something that's not a telephone, it could be an option to go to. But considering that there's something new, I don't know much about them, and looking at what happened recently in Lebanon, I've I'm hesitant to say, you know, dedicate to one system, but I've always done that dad knows, like to have our hands in multiple places. That's one of the things that makes a little bit of a tree radio harder than health or attack is everybody knows I use old tech, I use new tech. Another bar of services are held in one place. They're spread out all over the place. That way the SAM crowd gets hit, the MRS speed still goes. If the MRS speed gets hit, the SAM crowd still goes. It happens with our streaming networks. We have the conference line. And we have had the conference line attacked before. This is, I think, the third A free conference system that we had been on, the other two that we were on, one was bought and then destroyed by people who bought it, which as I understand it was a, a key organization that bought equipment that way they could use it for whatever, with government. And then the other one changed hands and they went to a paid service and changed the name. So this is the number that won right now is it has changed. It's like that's what I'm saying. Even this one is we still have to go from the for Arizona, which is where it was originally that quickly moved the servers and everything with the transaction where I think now it's out of Chicago. And I'm great with that as long as in California because we have to be honest, I have too much stuff in California with the radio station, you know, because that's where the servers are. No, we do actually. It's kind of diversified. Diversify, spread out. I would look at hand, CB, even AMF and short range transmitters like biker helmets with the A, B and C channels for short range communication. You don't want to have everything in one place. And even your local radio networks, you can listen to them and you can get a feel for who's more friendly, especially if they have local programming. If they're tied to an F-6 license, they're going to be playing some dribble they may not want to, but they're required to by law. Literally. Right, there's this percentage that they don't really have any choice. That's one thing people realize about licensed facilities is the contrary to which you might think, they already do have a tremendous amount of government manipulation of their programming. They may not edit everything, but they do. And they have their fingers in the pie. They determine what it is you're going to play in the way of news. You only have a short list. In other words, you have two choices, and both of them are communist. So, again, with regard to these alternatives, this is why we've tried to stay as independent as possible and stay away from anything in the way of licensing contracts that we can. It doesn't mean we haven't been on licensed networks. We have. We've been in right now. We're being broadcast in a number of different venues. You're probably wondering why we didn't do a top of the hour break. But that happens and we own the network so we can do this. Actually I've noticed that a lot of other independents that have affiliate activity going on anyway are doing the same thing simply because of the nature of the situation, the way things are developing. People are usually in some kind of urgency so if they go over the normal blocks that would have been by a sac religion, the religion of the old networks, it happens. Of course what usually happens is they can't help but they're going to have to fulfill their obligations to their advertisers so you're going to lose part of your programming if it's being carried by an affiliate. That happens. But I think we're okay because it would have come back 10 minutes after and way before 10 minutes after and go, okay, pick us up where we left off. The big thing here you were asking is how to get hold of us and that's something that we now start to, we need to start reinforcing again. We haven't done enough of that so thank you for bringing it up and we'll do what we can. The big thing is middle commercial shortwave frequencies. There are a number of areas that you should have a priority to be able to listen into and that would just be regular shortwave, AM-FM shortwave, those kinds of radios, Grundigs, whatever you want, whatever you can, what makes sense for your budget because that's the biggest issue. One thing that will happen is by other word of mouth and or progressive information, mobile transceivers in whatever shortwave frequency would be operating from more than one location. Example, we use microwave to get to the transmitter. The transmitter is a sacrifice. We don't keep people there because it's going to get a thousand pound bomb or a missile or a rocket or a drone on it at some point. So the important thing is that whenever you do this, you always have standoffs for broadcasting. That's the thing most people are not prepared for. I don't think everybody realizes example of how extensively we've used microwave. There's two things, either A, antenna configuration, or specific broadcasting capability. Microwave is so stupid, cheap, it's ridiculous, guys. You can buy microwave receive send units that are the actual array is only the size of about a postcard. They're used in metropolitan areas quite extensively and you are beaming over your head even as I'm talking right now. And most people will never realize it, never know that it's actually happening. Now that kind of microwave broadcasting is what we used with the micro effect. I can remember with the morning programs that we were doing, that was coming down off the mountain from where Joe was and being rebroadcast by three or four different microwave transmitters that were permanently fixed. And then it targeted a phone station that was, I would say, the total distance was probably what, eight, nine miles? and it had to jump over one little ridge, jump into another valley, go down to the river, the depth of the river, or as far down to the valley as the river, and then horizontally it was broadcast over to a receiver that hooked up to a conventional ground-lying phone. That's how you would be setting up, that's what you have to do. We're going to have to be doing this in the up and coming war because whatever you set up, immediately when it's operating, it will be a target. Now, you can make it mobile, you can make your transmitter mobile, but you want to minimize the threat with regard to personnel. So, whatever you're going to do, at a given point you're going to fix it, you know, it's going to stay in place and it's going to die. But for as long as you can run it, if you can run it in a relatively safe location, that's what we'll be doing. This is why I've said multiple backups. I grab every transmitter, I don't care what it is. Local FM type transmitters, I have a whole pile of. I've probably got, I would say, 30 or 40 that I've collected in the last three, four years. Some of them aren't very pretty, but they are micro FM rebroadcasting. Now those would be totally for local use. But for instance, using microwave or, here's another cute one, is using, again, YAGI antenna with VHF or UHF and or with cell phones. By using a YAGI, I can shoot to a receiver over the horizon, literally, with 92 to maybe 96% of the signal that I'm generating off of the original broadcasting unit. And we could be doing this program literally, it would appear on the map, so to speak, if something were hunting it, it would appear that we were broadcasting about a county away. And you want that. You want them to have good confidence that that's the place that needs to be destroyed. The important thing is don't put any friendly people around what it is they think they want to destroy. We're dealing with a battlefield situation. Communications, the other side, absolutely is going to prioritize the destruction of any and all communications, which is why from a battlefield or militia standpoint, Minimizing, or again, what operational radio you use in a fighting situation is deception. You create targets of opportunity for people who believe that that's the center of the universe, because it's the center of the universe for how they operate. And for that reason, you play on that, you use that. So creating a micro grid of a handful of 20, 30, 40, 50 little transmitters, a couple of higher core transmitters, broadcasting what appears to be command operations back and forth becomes a target of opportunity. It can actually completely misdirect a fighting force if done properly. And we've been focusing on that before this war starts. That's one of the things that we practice at is setting up shadow detachments and sections, even mechanized. And also, here's a cool one. You take a drone. Guys, how about if you take a handful of, say, 10, 15, 20 drones. Instead of a grenade or whatever, you put a short-range VHF UHF ball feng radio on the drone. You put a recording device with a whole bunch of tactical gibberish, in other words, battle language, and then you have the thing moving constantly from one point to the next to the next, and all of them are doing the same thing. Do you know what that would be like in the way of a signature for the aggressor? And you know what's fascinating? You can even put the little drones on autopilot, so to speak, in other words, program them to do a square, a box, a figure-rate, whatever, and change up even within the program so that the motion and movement would be constantly changing. However, the battle traffic with digital technology, I could create hours of battle chatter and it's not non-stop. It can't be. You cannot do that. It's got to be random. It has to be authentic in nature. In other words, you know, just openly talk through the radio. You employ what appears to be radio discipline. when in reality it's not. And this is part of the, again, one of the many aspects of radio communication so we need to take into consideration. If we broadcast like this, and we'll try to do this, seriously, this needs to happen because an information system is going to have to be established very early on. And so a kind of like, again, a news report, so to speak, more so than we're doing now. which would be for the purpose of morale as much as anything, but also the chair is against the wall. John has a long mustache. And by the way, for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, northwest, southeast, and east, you better practice what you are preaching before you get to the real game. Practice, practice, practice. Everybody see how that works? Remember that when you do listen in, some of what you're going to be hearing are phonetic codes, combinations of letters, numbers, statements made, and even the inflection of the author, the person who is speaking. Have you noticed? Sometimes. I actually construct my words and my sentences differently. You can eat stuff too when things going on like somebody reading a tarot card or an oracle card. Not that we're into those things, but they might have meanings for other people. Exactly. But anyway, hopefully I gave you an idea, caller. Good question because it is something that, especially in light of what we've seen the last couple of weeks, I personally think that they're punching us, you know, this is a series of punches that are typical for an attempt to hit with a major strike against the population. They are liars, cheats, thieves, they're scallywags, scoundrels, they're wicked, evil, satanic, pedo-queers, and the buggers have an agenda. Now we better have an agenda too and we better make sure we understand what it is before we get into this. So everybody has to be able to do their part and practice, practice, practice. That way when the time comes, it's second nature, there's no reaction, we always respond. Now I do understand because we have certain units that are called reaction sticks. The people prefer using response, but reaction sticks are an old term for immediate action combat units that we have. Like here in Michigan, we have about a dozen different groups. Their mission in life is if something kicks off, they're going to be the hard chargers making direct contact with the aggressor. And they've already agreed that the trigger's already been pulled. Right now, it's a Russian dead hand. All they're waiting for is the event to take place. And when that happens, the decision has already been made as far as what we're going to do. How do it happen when the Huttari was attacked? Okay, understand that. Good, call the different there. Yeah, I know this was not Weapons Wednesday, but I was just wondering that, would these PCP air guns 25, 35 caliber, would they be any good when the time comes? Well, some of the new ones, especially right now, they're killing pigs with them. If you can kill a wild boar, I don't think a two-legged, I don't think a bipedal creature is going to be hard to hurt by comparison. The big thing is that there are, again, you can spend any money you want. There's, you know, it's up and down the scale, different between a Pontiac and a Cadillac. and all the ones in between, Buick and Oldsmobile. But the thing is that there are some very nice multi-shot air platforms that are putting down animals that will charge you. They don't just, you know, when you hunt them, they hunt you back. And that's where they've proven that they work. So would I use them in, say, constant conflict? No, but they would be perfect for sentry removal. or limited exchange situations where I do not want to offer any more detection potential than possible. One of the things about air rifles, they do not have a thermal signature. In fact, I would say this, we laughed about this the other day. If you shot it enough, you actually might be seen because if you continue to shoot an air rifle and you evacuate, you push the air through the tube, You actually are going to bring down the temperature of the barrel. It's not going to go up. It's going to go down. So you might actually have a cooling effect. Yeah, and it's not a problem. It would be very difficult for that to be an issue. But if anything were going to be an issue, that's the only thing that would be a detection, would be a signature for the system. Air weapons in the optimal mode have nothing to offer in the way of detection. They're quiet. I mean granted people are putting silencers on the air guns, but I will point this out again. You don't need to do that. If you just put a cone type, in fact what you do is, let's say what guys used to do for years and years with the Carcanos is put a 4-10 barrel, take about 8 inches worth of a 4-10 barrel and cut it, you know, off an old junk barrel and tap it on the end of the Carcano. What would that do? Well, it created a directional cone, and so it reduces the signature and the flash from the end of the weapon. Well, it was especially a problem with the short barrel connoisseur car beans, but with a long rifle, it eradicates a bunch of the sound, pushes it all forward, et cetera. You can do the same thing with the air gun, and it's not going to affect the ballistic performance of the weapon. So that's not going to affect in any way, shape, or form. But what little noise it does produce would all be projected towards the objective slash the target and that would be quite effective. Nobody else would hear anything around the use of the weapon. I'm looking at a chart right now, Dad, and the best-rated air rifle by these people, which is off of outdoorlife.com, this is them reading rifles. 896.8 feet per second is their best air rifle that they have. I think to get up to that speed it's going to do what a .22 does. Well, it will do better actually. In fact, I'm looking at it again. So it's on the edge of being almost, depending on where it is when you load it and what's left in the air to air reserve because nowadays what they've done is they've blended the air reserve system of the paintball guns, which I argued years ago would be obviously where they were going. I've always argued that you could take the airsoft, or not airsoft, correction, the paintball design guns switch out the aluminum barrel for a steel carbon barrel and then what you do is load it as a single shot discarding Sabo projector because a paintball gun would do the same thing. You put a longer barrel, you've got, the big thing about paintball guns guys is that even with paintballs, they had to regulate them because people were putting smaller arbiters for release of the air into the weapons, into the, forgive me, the paintball toy guns, which they weren't really toys, they were competition devices, and they were hurting people. Which is why typically when you go to a paintball competition, they chronograph all the guns to ensure that you aren't quote unquote cheating. And what they mean by that is... Paintball and air stock both. Yeah, because... We can get some pretty... You can get some pretty wicked range out of an airsoft rifle, especially with the heavier pellets. And anybody who does airsoft that plays a sniper in an airsoft game, they will brag about what they've done to treat their rifle to shoot you from all the way across the map. Right. And again, the big thing here is that with the paintball guns, imagine taking a discarding sable. You use the same type of discarding sable you now use in muzzle loaders. and you individually load the paintball gun with a discarding Sabo with a .45 caliber or .30 caliber bullet. When you touch that off with a compression arpeggier, a much smaller arpeggier, you're going to be pushing hypersonic, well supersonic if you want to, but what you want to do is back it off so you can go with a heavier bullet, you go with less energy, and you want to keep it just below supersonic so you don't have that hypersonic crack. Because even if it won't make any bang noise, remember that you're still going to hear the bullet as it cuts through the air, and the air has to go back into that space that the bullet cut when it went past through that air channel. That's what that crack is that you hear. So you want to have it right on the edge where it's not supersonic. You also want to increase the weight of the bullet. And as an anti-personnel device, even for limited exchange contact, those types of weapons would be useful because they offered no signature, with sound or little to no signature, no more or any less than a silenced firearm. Actually less. And again, no thermal signature. So you're not enhancing what is already a technology out there looking for you, which is all the thermal equipment that's in service. So air rifles absolutely work just fine. And again, if all else fails, look at it this way. That's your game getting device. Why? Because it doesn't make any noise to draw any attention because if you want to harvest the king's deer or if you're going to harvest the king's bunnies or whatever and you don't want anybody to know that you're still eating properly, well, the air rifle would make more sense, wouldn't it? Egg mugs. Go ahead, color. Got it. Yes. The air, what do they call it, paintball guns, is there really a way to make them have lethal power, really? They already have lethal power. Yes, all you have to do, that's my point. They're dangerous if the individuals continued to, and they already did, this happened almost as quickly as the paintball competition started. People wanted to get more velocity because you get a flatter trajectory, you get more time on target, greater range, and that's what everybody was looking for. Problem is that most of the time when they're shooting at each other, they're not at great range. And so what happens is they were hahaha hurting each other. Well, you'll shoot your eye out. And so even though you have protection and everything else, people were getting welted up, they still do, they get welted up with what they have in the way of specification if they don't wear armor. So, if you take that device, and like I said, the barrels that are being used are phenomenal barrels to begin with. But my personal attitude is you take the barrel, you take it off of the air saw, the Forgive Me, off the paintball gun, you spec it out, you produce a steel barrel, a carbon steel or stainless steel barrel of comparable performance and dimension. And that affords you the ability to increase the pressures to an even greater extreme. Now, remember that most of those barrels are aircraft aluminum, so they're pretty stinking strong. But I figured, what the heck? If we could press it to its maximum, increasing the reservoir, and in the process reducing the, again, the release harpature, then you're probably going to be able to cook it about 1,800 feet per second with whatever larger bore bullet you want to. But you're going to use a SABO. In other words, yes, it's going to be whatever the present dimension is that you choose for the barrel, but the sabot, or the sabu, take your pick, Dutch, French, Flemish, whatever. Fact is that when that leaves the tube, it's a smaller diameter projectile that the butterfly opens up and releases the projectile and it travels downrange at an increased velocity beyond what normally could be possible with a projectile of the same size as the barrel using a solid shot device. Now, there's all kinds of tricks to even making a projectile that would be as big as the standard paintball dimension. One of those is to create a kind of like a Plastine Mini-ball. Remember, what makes the mini ball so successful with muzzle loading like spring fields and end fields was the fact that it was shaped like a more common and traditional bullet as we know them today. The base of the projectile is rounded and it's a thinner wall lead at the base of the projectile so when the charge goes off, The base of the projectile expands, locks into the lands and grooves of the rifling, spins down the barrel, and out it goes. Well, you could do that with plastic and air. And then still, in fact, this is one of the places where you really could create a hybrid bullet that would be a combination of materials. Couldn't necessarily do that with chemical propulsion because of the issues of expansion and how things burn. But you're dealing with air. There are no secondary issues with regard to interaction with materials. The air energy itself is, you know, the pressure is the only thing that really is part of the formula. So it would be possible to either A, and you can do it, make a conventional bullet. I would build a longer barrel. I put a longer barrel on the device. Now again, with Sabo, you do not need rifling. 12 gauge Sabos are right now easily reaching 200 yards with a scope shotgun all day. Well, that's pretty stinking good. And in fact, the average rifleman supposedly could only engage at about 220 yards. That's the bullshit they were pumping in everybody's ear for the last 40, 50 years, even though obviously we can reach farther than that. So by their own standards, we could produce a weapon with air that could effectively engage target at about 200 yards and would have comparable destructive strength to say a 20 gauge or 12 gauge slug. Now, if it doesn't make any sound and it's not restricted because it doesn't have a silencer, it's just you learn how to calibrate the gun and the device itself doesn't make any noise anyway because it has no combustion chamber. It simply has a pressure release valve and a pressure release caliper. Go ahead, jump in there. I have a stupid question. Feed bullets into this particular type of a rifle. Because the paintball, the big hopper on the top of the thing, so how do you feed this particular ammunition that's kind of... Is it pointed at the end and then rounded at the other end? Yes, it is. Okay, well, now, if you notice what I said a moment ago, good question. No, you're asking a good question. Number one is the first model that I would put into service would be a single shot device. And literally you would muzzle load the projectile. Why not? It's designed as a sentry removal tool so it does not have to repeat fire. Now, what you're asking is something right from the get-go, how could you create a magazine for this? Well, in place of the hopper, you actually reverse it and produce a magazine much like you have for loaded ammunition. But the only thing that the magazine holds is the actual projectile. So in place of where you would have an aperture with a gravity feed from above, What you want to do is reverse your feed slot from below, although you could do it from above, it wouldn't be a problem. The Austin and the Bren gun use a top magazine feed because if the magazines are kind of floppy or sloppy or unreliable, gravity sucks. And usually the ammunition has sense to flop to the chamber. So, the advantage here is that you wouldn't be doing any flapping, but what you have to do is come up with a magazine that would simply hold the projectile. It does not need to hold the capes. Now, for that reason, the other part of your engineering process is to build the projectile in such a way that it either is ensconced in a jacketed material of some kind, so it's a little tougher. Or, again, because you still have to have a feed ramp type system, so consider that although it may not be, it may just be a jump off or a step off. There's different types of designs for magazine feed. But I would put a ramp in, that wouldn't be a big deal, and that would help to assist with the tapered bullet. It would be a rounded projectile, I think more like a rounded 38 special or round nose 357 Magnum. round nose 38 special. There's the best way to think about it. Or an M1 carbine type projectile. The only difference is that the projectile itself with regard to the cylindrical component because it's going to be tapered would be longer because you want that additional length to help or assist with the feed of the projectile into the chamber. But initially, and I'm serious about this, if I wanted to build a weapon that would be an optimal, quiet, sensory removal device, I'd make it just muzzle loading from the front. I'm not going to bang bang a lot. I'm just going to get very good at hitting them and hitting them hard. And if my weapon doesn't work, you have a backup with a gun that makes noise. But otherwise, for instance, for siege, countersniping, or I should say harassment fire. These would be optimal because again, the Mr. Dolby concept, you shoot once and you do not fire again from that position. So again, and there's nothing to identify. There's no, from down range, except that if Bob standing there or Chow Chu Bing is standing there or Izzy Blatsonstein is standing there from the Mossad and all of a sudden the bullet goes pop and hits, There's no way to identify where it came from per se if you know Blatsenstein drops dead right there on the spot because he probably won't be having conversations anyone even if he just hurt horribly and There's no way to identify the direction of the projectile because you can build it and I would build it initially I'd work at subsonic But if you wanted supersonic, then you still the only thing you're going to get out of that is a hypersonic crack You're not going to have the explosive charge and discharge of the material from the end of the muzzle. That doesn't exist. These are things they don't want you to think about because you do realize that with a whole bunch of people armed like this, you could just quietly keep decimating the aggressor and there's no way you could stop it. It's like the motor type auto weapon that we were talking about the other day. Basically, it's a little gallery BB gun on steroids. Well, guess what? Back in the when electricity first came into play and electric motors were first created, guys, there were several men who designed carriage-fired machine guns using the motor, that motor centrifugal system. Now why didn't they become popular? Well, because you don't sell more ammo. You sell bullets, you sell projectiles, which could be ball bearings. or whatever. In fact, what's perfect is, ball bearings would be your best choice or something like that, although in theory one of these devices could even throw pebbles or rocks. At close range it would be hellacious. It would be, it would saw your legs off, it saw you in half. There's nothing you do to stop it. There's not, it would just beat you to death. Even if you had body armor, it would just beat you to death for the volume of fire it could produce. It would just beat you down. You may not kill you right away, but you wish you were dead real quick, and you won't be. Just sit there kind of... Maybe wheeze for a while then die. The big thing about the paintball gun... Hold on, one of the other things real quick. Remember that the first paintball guns that came out guys were all single shot. Does anybody remember this? So the old obsolete air guns, or I should say paintball guns, are the basis for generation one lethal force fire arms, sorry not fire arms, lethal force projectors because they're not a fire arm. They're not a gun. Think about it. If you go look at the original paintball guns, they were bolt action, single shot, You opened it up, you loaded around, you fired at the guy while he's trying to fire at you, you're reloading and firing again. The next step was a magazine. And like Phyllis said, the magazine came in from the top. Now, here's another thing that's really wicked. I want you to all think about this. What if I were to take marbles, you know, if I take a conventional paintball gun, And I load it. First of all, I configure it so it has a smaller release aperture. The smallest that I can get has to be beefed up. They are out there. They're sold. It's just they're not supposed to be used for competition. And instead of paintball, I drop glass marbles into the hopper. What happens then? Anybody ever think about that? What do you think that would be like now would that be that nasty dad? But I've got one for you that a lot of people that are listening that I know are in construction Will understand where I'm going with this a nail gun with a barrel hooked up to an air compressor Right well, that's the other thing is if you if you wanted to make this a position defense gun You could take and hook up an air compressor system high output The regulator determines again what the velocity of the weapon would be, but for instance to hold a doorway or whatever, if you had a position where you had sandbag the position or you know, prevent it in whatever way you want to, somebody kicks in the door and all you do is go... And you don't stop until your five, six hundred marbles are gone or your six, seven hundred ball bearings are gone or whatever it is you've come up with for a magazine and what you use for ammo. And again, you know what I do? I put it at leg height. I wouldn't put it at waist, well maybe waist height, but it's going to happen anyway because you cut their knees off, you cut their legs off and it would be horrific. Hey Mark. Yep, go ahead. You're talking about loading them into that hopper. What about the difference in the weight? Because isn't there a difference in the weight of a marble and a difference in a ball bearing and a difference in the weight? Actually, the ball bearing will be heavier, but the marble is actually quite lightweight. And by the way, glass is not supposed to be used per the Geneva Conventions of the Hague Treaty. But in fact, they used to make glass grenades, if anybody doesn't know that. Most grenades were made out of pottery or glass. Even the fusillier grenade that you normally see that's a symbol for grenadiers. That originally was clay pot, and then they would use glass, and they also, of course, made cast frangible iron. For the projectile, the marble would probably be closest to the original weight of a standard paintball round. But upon impact, it would shatter depending upon the type of casting. So what you'd have is a frangible round that would be like a razor blade going into the tissue. Razor blades going into the tissue. I don't have to blow through somebody. Remember, this is something we kind of talked about. The guy who did the slingshot channel says he pointed out he was using 40 caliber ball bearings with this custom slingshot that he originally designed. And his projectile was going straight through a five gallon pail of ballistic gel. And he goes, that's not what I want. And so he went out and he found a 60 and then a 70 caliber bearing with the same slingshot which has incredible energy to ones that he was building and the bullet stops in the ballistic shell and he goes, that's what I want. Now you think about what he's trying to imply. 100% of the energy is dissipated against the target. Which means that all of that energy is absorbed by the target instead of passing through the target and partially used to continue to project the pellet. So that's another thing we everybody makes a mistake is oh no I want to look out when they say filling full of lead remember lead bullets yes, they typically stay with the body, but let me point something out guys if you're using military ball 9 millimeter Most parts of the body, unless there's some body armor there, that bullet's going straight through that person and out the other side. And if it finds somebody else, it'll go into them and maybe out of them too. 9mm Parabellum is... they only pissed on it here several, you know, a couple decades ago when they were pushing .40 caliber Smith & Wesson. And it was to market .40 Smith. But 9mm is nothing to sneeze at. There's no bullet out there I want to get shot with. But especially if the projectile is a ball round, it's an ice pick. The problem is, then you have to take into consideration, watch your backstop. Whereas on the other hand, with the type of projectiles that we're talking about here, or if you were traditionally reusing cast lead, Typically, the bullet, if it found enough mass, it would slow down, stay with the target. This is why a lot of people were hopeful that a bullet would pass through them, because if the bullet's in you, somebody's got to dig it out. Now, can you imagine a projector that does BBs or bullets or round ball projectiles or marbles, and the target, it just stays in the target. It continues to load up the target. Especially if it's a clear marble, if it's clear glass. Why I like using broken glass on my shotgun routes? Well, a cat eye would probably be more devastating, really, because think about it. In order to make that cat eye material that you see, you have casting impurities because you have two different dissimilar materials that create the illusion of the cat eye marble. So when that hits something more solid or hits a bone, it'll fracture in whatever random pattern the energy applied creates. It's just a consideration. And it's a pain in the ass, and the butt for the surgeon to dig it out. There's only one way you're going to do that, and it's with probing for each and every shard, every piece you can find. And even then, you probably won't find most of them. So, go ahead, jump in there, color. Yeah, I used to be an x-ray tech years ago. And I want to say something about glass. Good luck flying it. By virtue of how it looks in the body and how it's density and And the way it is, you are a good size. They usually look where it is. When they look at bullet holes, they look at where it goes in and where the bullet is in the body. Well, if you get hit with a solid glass, it goes in. Where did it go? You could say a massive dose of exploratory surgery to find out what happened to where it went and went through and where did it go and where is it? Good luck. Right. That's part of the equation. When you talk about glass. You're just, your hand, it's got to be the most, I'd say a glass in the pelvis area. You're going to have to say exploratory surgery big time. And you wouldn't want to do exploratory surgery just to find where the problem is. Or you're going to do a lot of them. You're just going to have a surgical nightmare trying to find out where the problem is. What's been damaged? That's probably why they, shall we say, did away, called it an illegal weapon to be a legal project now because it's such a medical problem to figure out and go... It's a fix up job that's really hard to do. To recover it. To figure out where the top is. I just want to add that. Glass is terrible on x-ray. You won't find it. You're just not going to see it. One of the things real quick is I mentioned grenades. One of the other reasons that grenades made out of glass became less popular is because it's a matter of how tempered the glass is. If you don't properly temper the glass in a grenade, it literally can pulverize. It would be more like an offensive grenade than a defensive grenade in effect. The defensive grenade has a larger burst radius. An offensive grenade, like the German, everybody calls them the potato masher, but it's a standard German offensive storm grenade. And it was, we may, our equivalent are flashbangs. That was the lie that they have. Flashbang grenades are lethal. You can be killed by a flashbang grenade. They came up with a bullshit name to try and convince everybody that, oh, it's not lethal. No, it has a smaller burst radius, and it's designed to be a shock device. And the reason it has a smaller burst radius is so that when you throw it, you don't run into the explosion. In other words, a defensive grenade has burst radius of between 25 and 35 feet. and has an effective lethality range that is in that circle, that sphere. And don't forget up and down, not just left and right, not just forward and back. The big thing here is with projectiles, as long as it's in one piece until it hits, that's when the distortion takes place. So what we're talking about, the experiment here, the issue is matching up the average ambient size of a non-fully consistent projectile, because marbles do have variance, is that you have to be as close as you possibly can be, but you still have to make accommodation for variance in the ammunition that you've chosen to use. Ball bearings would be more consistent, but as Phyllis asked, aren't they heavier? Yes, they're denser, they're heavier. However, if you've brought the PSI up with the release device, then your biggest concern is making sure that you can accommodate that energy by having a barrel that can retain the amount of PSI generated behind the projectile. In other words, the energy, the slap behind it, and it has to go down the whole barrel. This is why initially the experiment would be with the existing barrels that are in the inventory. And again, why discarding Sabo or other ideas would probably be your first choice with off the shelf. However, very quickly, other barrels could be adapted and with more research, which we've done a certain amount of this. And I've actually mapped this out on paper and given it to different people. Even the idea of the magazine. The magazine isn't difficult to figure out at all. And in fact, one of the wonderful things is that the only weight you have is the weight of the projectile. And if it's nested in a sabo, that's insignificant, but it's still part of the formula. But you only have whatever the length of the projectile is to accommodate for a magazine. So the magazine is no bigger than typically what you would see with a 9 millimeter parabellum, something like a submachine gun magazine. It would be a stick mag, it could be in line initially, it could be staggered if you develop a better projectile, but initially just go straight in line. And it could be crude, it's not as sophisticated, which is another consideration. And so air, guys, let's just qualify this with one more thing to check out. Everybody talks about is a little bit of history that Lewis and Clark had an air rifle that they took with them for most of the trip. At a given point, they gave the air rifle and what few lead projectiles they had left to an Indian chief. Where did the idea for the weapon come from and where was its original concept came from? Austria. At the time, the Austrian army completely went to air rifles for their combat weapons. What? Why don't you hear anything about it because you've got to think flash boom. Remember, the biggest part about propaganda with government is to channel you into a particular thought process. The Austrian Army had an entire support system for the air rifles. They had three generations at least. I think there's five different models total. And these weapons worked. They were very deadly. Hey, Dad. Okay. Lethal-y so. So again, just as a qualifier, remember, the whole idea came and went, but only because you don't make much money off of just projectiles. You make more money off ammunition. Go ahead. We're almost to the top of the hour. This is way off topic, but before you get to the 8 o'clock, you might want to look this up because the story's kind of funny. New Zealand lost a naval vessel this week. It beached on a coral reef, Dad. All hands survived. The vessel was specifically made for mapping the sea floor, right? The captain is they're saying they're going to give her a medal and they're not going to investigate it and this is the second ship she sunk And it's not wartime, okay, let's let's let's emphasize something I believe It gets better. Okay, this ship was is map for mapping the ocean floor, right? They hit the reef her excuse was that her charts weren't good and they were they hadn't mapped the area yet Well, that's why you're supposed to use all the technology on board and not run your ship a ground and sink it Yeah, they had my captain they quote unquote haven't talked to the captain yet in any of the interviews that I've seen on this But they haven't talked talked to the captain or any of the crew But they're saying that the ship might have lost power which is why they hit the reef And why did the ship lose power? Lost power completely. And it was at risk to the point where it aggressively ran aground and went to the bottom. Yep, that takes a lot of effort people. Let's see, I mean, and what about, okay, I have another problem here. What happened to damage control? Well, point. There were they know I understand if I think I've seen a little bit of this she originally he she it was originally with the British Navy and Apparently then what? The New Zealand Navy now, I think I've seen a little bit of this I haven't seen all of it and I just figured well It's the kind of like I said guys do I want my enemy to change? Look at the quality of the product that the enemy is getting Do I want them to improve? No, I want that POS right there in another position of authority because when the time comes, we'll put them in the bottom permanently. Here's the sound that came out of it. Since naval officers are usually men, And it took them thousands of years to get to the point where they don't make as many mistakes. We have to be more forgiving to our women captains. Now this same woman, as I understand it, sunk a New Zealand battleship which they don't have many. It might have been their only one. Well, it's a warship. They're calling it a battleship. It's a warship. She sunk that not too long before this one. And she's supposedly retired from the British Navy, but she is active in the New Zealand Navy, which has been confusing some people, saying that, no, it couldn't have been her because she's retired. No, she retired from one down to New Zealand and joined the Navy down there and is sinking ships. Well, again, what happens in the system, in a politically correct system, the inept are rewarded and the result repeats itself. Which is exactly what's transpired. I think it's a good thing. As far as I'm concerned, like I said, my enemy is going to continue to do the same thing repeatedly over and over and over again. What is that? The demonstration of insanity. But wait a minute. These are all queers of $3 bill poofdas. What is the demonstration of insanity? Repeating something and expecting the same result. And getting the same, by the way, in this case. They got exactly what they expected. And for the same price, cost of another ship. Prior-prefer planning prevents PIS 4 performance. Perhaps you should have put somebody who was competent in charge. Oh, we don't need to do that. You know, you're just being far too, you know, that's mansplaining. Okay, first of all, it's very seldom when a regular officer in any other Navy, a man, loses a ship. Guys, it's pretty tough to get somebody back up there on the bridge after they've performed poorly. One way or another, that's a big black mark. That's just all there is to it. Unless you're playing political correctness and then who cares, right? However, if this were a similar situation and an individual actually did it twice and it was a man with gonads, I guarantee that they would expect to crucify and lobotomize the individual. Maybe we could do that. Don't forget, the cheapest are the single shot paintball guns to work with. They would be a great way to prototype whatever it is you want to develop. Most importantly is first developed to be the idea of how to make the projectiles work depending on what you want to do Second is expanding on the ability to repeat the process without mechanically and in a more, let's say protracted process reloads Again, how you try to apply the weapon is the first consideration. I like the idea of sensory removal I'm gonna get out of here. Ed's taking over. More LTR coming up. We will be back at 8 o'clock in the intel report. And remember, perhaps he can sink a third ship for the New Zealand Navy. They deserve it. They truly do. And it should happen. We got away. Ed's taking over. Jeff West. Bye-bye. By 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 has 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 usurpations pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their 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. His history of repeated injuries and usurpations all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To 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 the in their operations of his ascent should be obtained, and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass on the 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, and places are new to all uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his 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, the 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, and 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 to 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's 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 legislatures. 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 legislatures 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, distillation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy 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 is endeavoured 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 an 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've 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 death 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, assemble. 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 of the acts and things which independent states may of right 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. There's a lot of stuff to get into. We got stuff going on with the hurricane. I just wanted to throw that thing out there at the end of the Intelligence Report for now, because it is funny. You think two ships, you think a ship specifically built for mapping the ocean floor, and you wanted to ground on a rift at high speed, claimed that your power was out and that your carts were bad. Well, You don't need charts if you got your equipment. You're supposed to be you're the one supposed to be mapping the area Yeah, that was the quote-unquote mission and now on top of it. I was because I was looking at it Before we got to the end of the intelligence report now. It's also an environmental disaster because the 200 was 200,000 gallons of diesel oil is now leaking from the ship into the ocean around the reef and they want international aid to come into this. And the captain of the ship who crashed it, sunk it, created the environmental disaster, is kitten medals. Woo-hoo! I mean, whatever happened to the exon velvege, you know, the captain of that is supposed to be shamed for life because of the Because of the crash and the oil spill that he had there. This is it I mean that it's it's crazy. You know what's going on there the fact that she already thunk Another ship and they put her in command of this one and she's not good if they give her a third ship I'm gonna laugh my ass off at this one Anyway, this is a bush town hall meeting. This is your program. It's not mine. We're up live every Friday between the hours of the intelligence report. We use this as a program to give you guys updates about what's going on with Liberty Tree Radio. And it's a live calling program. If you have news or information in your neck of the woods, stuff that you don't think is being talked about enough on the air or something that you've heard locally that's going on, you can call in, bring it up. We want to know about Dunn shows, training exercises, rallies, protests, all that stuff, ours or theirs, and yes, it helps to know when they are having rallies and protests or training exercise planned, because a lot of their training exercises that they plan tend to go live. Their rallies and protests, well, they are the ones that usually do the riot thing, so it's a good idea to know where to stay away from. You know, that's why we do that. It also gives us a heads up on, you know, possibly where the next quote-unquote incident is going to happen just randomly, don't you know. But it's amazing how randomly it always ends up being so predictable that way. I got a little scratchiness on my microphone. I can hear that. I know it's coming from me, but that's okay. I've got to say, The new computer is working great. The other computer shifted over. We've got on the conference line, the audio is so much better and clearer to me when we play something. I don't know if anybody else does that. It's not as garbled unless I push the volume too much, which I'm still learning the levels with this stuff, so it's going to be that way. So that situation is taken care of. My wife, I think I just mentioned this last Friday. My wife gave me a computer as a birthday gift. I did not know she was going to do that, but she did it for the radio station. That way we would be able to keep going without me having to struggle and fight with that other machine that is still here. It's still set aside for backup. It's an older machine. We've got three units from her old work that her boss Bill left to us when he passed away. And I do appreciate that. It's good that we have those backups there. If anything happens, we can switch over and use them. It's a little bit more of a pain in the arse, and the technology is a little older. It doesn't mesh well with some things, but it's there. We can use it if need be. So I'm not worried about us needing a backup or anything like that right now. We did have a power search today at the beginning of the intelligence report. That's why we started late. The interesting thing is it was a power surge every all the lights and everything in the house got brighter It Affected my power supply, but I'm looking at the battery and the time has gone up But I still have a flashy light on my battery, but it is showing those charges up to 68% on the emergency battery backup supply for the equipment for the radio station. When we lose power, we don't lose power on everything that we're running the station with that we can shut things down or hopefully the power kicks back on before we have to do that and can continue the broadcast. Unfortunately, I don't control the power on the local internet companies and I wish, you know, if Considering a lot of people rely on that craft to be their 911 emergency service, you'd think they would, but they don't. In fact, I've never met a cable company that has done that, and since AT&T and Bell has gone over to using, what was Bell? Has gone over to using fiber optic. They're doing the same thing that the cable companies are. They don't have emergency power in place to run their equipment, switching stations, or their relays, when power goes out in an area so you lose your internet connection, your phone and everything. So if you're counting on that system to work like the old dial-up system, which worked a thousand times better in an emergency, on a copper line, very simple, straightforward, these things are never going to be that reliable. They're not building them to be reliable. They're building them to be trash. Okay? You get great, you get great speed, great connection. Don't get me wrong. That part of it works fine. But it is not reliable in an emergency situation. You cannot depend on that system when you want to get a hold of emergency services. When you're trying to get a hold of somebody and let somebody know, like with the hurricane and stuff that's happened, that hey, I need to I need help on tracks, blah blah blah, going down the list. That's one of the reasons why we were talking about alternative communications in the last hour. And there are several different options out there. I recommend that you have more than one. CB is a solution. Marine radio is a solution. Ham radio is a solution. AM FM radios are a solution. transceivers and receivers or sending units, you know transceivers better you can send and receive on those. But it's up to you, what can you afford? Even if it's just like a little FRS radio or something, be in touch in communication with your neighbors. Now I've talked about this before, setting up small private networks in your community to be able to communicate with your neighbors in the event that something happens. Small internet networks for small communities, we've helped set that up where people have access through a portal to, well, not portal, what is it called? Most people are used to LAN networks, which is local area networks. That's like your home computers. Networking your PC. Well, nowadays, when a lot of people do it, they don't even think about it. They create a LAN network using their Wi-Fi, between their TV, their refrigerator, whatever you've got that's a smart device and your cell phone. That is a local area network where you can control your devices and the devices can communicate back and forth. Picture that on a wider scale. It's called a WAN, a Wide Area Network. And everybody, you can have a splash page set up with a little message board that anybody can get on and just type. And that's more for like a community thing. That's not really for like reaching out and beyond unless you want to hook into that. But I would, I severely recommend not doing that unless it's with a community or another network that you trust. I would not trust the internet when it comes to, you know, that kind of stuff. That's how you get viruses on board and stuff gets damaged that way, which is why when we do help people set stuff up like that, try to keep it on the down low. One of the groups that did a really good job about creating a network like this was Seattle Wireless. It was a college student project. It was creating a wireless internet wide area network for all of Seattle, Washington, around the college campuses there. The students were involved. They got businesses involved. They got businesses set up with their own little splash page that way the students could browse their own network. It was not the internet. It was a Seattle web internet. You know, you can go beyond that. Unfortunately, some of the businesses that they approached, you know, reported them to the FCC. They didn't think it was right or they didn't like somebody else who was on the network there. And the students got attacked. That network got attacked. It still exists today, but now they have to do it more on the down low. If you want to get into it, you pretty much have to know somebody because of the way that they were attacked by the FCC. because of some Karen complaining about the fact that they had this thing. It was totally free and they were letting anybody on and using it. How dare they? Anyway, let's see. We're at 23 minutes into the hour and I gave the rundown on the station and what the program is but I did not give the conference number. Give me a second here. I'm going to try to find where I had it. Up! Where'd it go? Okay, so if you want to call in, you can call 667-770-1524. The participation code once you hear is 957-464 in the pound sign. Again, you call the number 667-770-1524. Participation code is 957-464 in the pound sign. You're welcome to come up, bring up topics. Let's see. I'm looking, Lynn just posted one in the Gilded General Chat. FEMA setting track for Floridians to try to provoke a blank. Is this a video? Looks like it's a video. It's over on Brighton. I've never used this system before, so we will try, we'll try to point this, see how long this is. Nothing. I don't really want to do email with you guys. All right, this is a half hour long. Disclaimer, information contained in this video presented solely for the educational and entertainment purposes. The other thing in this video should be considered as medical or financial advice. Let's see, practice, laws. Basically, disclaimer at the beginning of the video. It's about 26 minutes and 26 seconds, so that would be like half the program. We may come back to this. We might play this. I got some other stuff, though. But that is posted in the general chat right now. If you want to add, you know what? We'll do that. We will. We'll play it. We'll see what this is, because it's probably time-sensitive material. Okay, red alert intel. We know the next phase of the escalation plan involving FEMA and an attempted provocation of the American people, in this case Floridians, into some kind of a J6 style insurrection following Hurricane Milton. This is an attempt by the establishment to try to halt the election and declare martial law and declare the American people to be the enemy of democracy. So this is how this is shaping up. We got word that FEMA is out there now offering ungodly amounts of money to security firms to bring in all kinds of armed security personnel with all the training that you might suspect that they would have training, you know, a lot of them veterans, for example, to bring them into Florida in order to run denial of area operations after the hurricane hits to make sure that Floridians don't go back home. This is a massive evacuation, of course, happening right now and You know, the governor and the mayors and everybody saying leave, leave, leave. And then once you leave, you're not going to be allowed back. They're going to enforce that at gunpoint if necessary. Delta Force is working with FEMA to design the denial of area plans right now. And FEMA is laying out huge money, like insane amounts of money for contractors to bring them into the state by the hundreds in order to run these operations and prevent the American people from going back home. Now think about the fact that FEMA said it has run out of money, it can't help the people in North Carolina. FEMA has been interdicting food supplies. FEMA has been blocking or hindering rescue efforts, good faith rescue efforts by churches and nonprofit organizations, corporations and in some cases local law enforcement. Some Leos in North Carolina even threatened to start arresting FEMA agents because they are in the way. They are deliberately hindering food relief operations in order to maximize starvation and fatalities in North Carolina. And FEMA claims they have no money. But suddenly they have all kinds of money to pay contractors to block people from returning to Florida. So what you're going to see after Hurricane Milton hits, which we're going to call the Milton Massacre, after it hits it's going to be something like a full-on war zone there. where you've got FEMA and all these contractors with military experience blocking Americans. And remember, evacuations are not always successful. You know, people have to leave a lot of things behind in order to evacuate quickly, including paperwork, you know, identity documents. Sometimes people leave pets behind, which seems bizarre to me. There may be people left behind. especially elderly people who are less mobile and you know things get crazy and a lot of people figure well they'll leave and then when the storm passes they'll come back and they'll have access to their homes or businesses or warehouses or whatever that's not going to happen notice too that fuel supplies have been completely wiped out all up and down that north-south corridor on the gulf coast of florida people are running out of fuel right now There are emergency fuel operations underway right now to try to bring fuel to people and cars are going to be stalled on the interstate. That's what I was told. There's just no fuel. All the gas stations are wiped out and around the Tampa area, there's no gas folks. There's no gas. So the question is, this wipeout of fuel is also going to make it impossible for people to return unless they bring fuel with them from the north. You see what I'm saying? There's an engineered effort to block people from returning after the storm and this has everything to do with, I believe, the 15-minute city concept for Tampa. So Bill Gates and some other business owners, big globalist people, they have a 15-minute city plan for Tampa. They're going to turn Tampa. Just like Lahaina in Hawaii, they're going to turn Tampa into a city where supposedly you can get everywhere you need to go on foot or on a bicycle or on some transit. Everything's within 15 minutes, everything that you need. Yeah, right. And you're not allowed to leave, you know? You're not allowed to have a combustion engine vehicle. 15-minute cities are slave zones run by the globalists who enslave the people and trap them in these prison camps, which basically, let's just call them Gaza. Because what Israel has demonstrated with Gaza is that they can run a prison camp, they can bomb the smithereens out of everybody, they can control everything, control the food, the electricity, the medicine, the internet, airports, everything. And that the powers that be in America will totally support it. You've got senators saying, oh how much we love Israel for everything they did to Gaza. We love them. Folks, I've said this before, everything that Israel did to Gaza the globalist plan to do to you. They're going to wipe out the rural areas. You just saw that with Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. They're going to wipe out rural areas, force people into the cities, and these cities will be slave zones. Police camps, basically. Police state encampments of open-air prisons. That's what a 15-minute city is. But in order to make a 15-minute city, They have to do to Tampa what Israel did to Gaza, which is to wipe out all the buildings wipe it out bulldoze the place Rebuild it as a prison camp now in Gaza they use of course bombs and bulldozers to do that in Tampa they use weaponized weather You think this hurricane is natural not a chance this thing was whipped up I talked about this in my podcast yesterday. The NOAA has an entire page dedicated to weather control technologies. There's even a requirement that if you engage in weather control, you have to file a report with the federal government. And that report, there are over a thousand reports already filed and they're listed on the NOAA website, by the way. And the page about weather control technologies there on the government website lists the nine techniques for weather control. One of them is lasers and electromagnetic projections or something like that. And there are others that use sound waves and then there's a dispersion of particulate matter in the atmosphere like stratospheric aerosol injection. These are all listed on the NOAA website. in great detail. So if there's anybody out there who's still completely oblivious to the fact that weather control is real, you know, I don't know what to say. They're just out of the loop. They don't know what's happening. They must not know that the U.S. is $35 trillion in debt or something. They probably still think that we're living in the 1980s or something. No, weather control has been around for decades. It's very real. It's patented. It's described on government websites. There are reports you have to file when you engage in weather control. There's no question. Weather control technology is real. There's cloud seeding in Dubai. They brag about it. They control the weather. They make it rain when they want to. Okay? So, yes, these hurricanes are controlled. They are steered through selective ionization of the atmosphere. They're steered directly into Tampa. Why? To devastate Tampa. Again, Israel uses bombs. And that props up the military industrial complex and generates revenue for all the bomb makers and Raytheon and whoever else. But they can't use bombs in an American city without alerting too many people. Everybody would start asking questions, why are they bombing US cities? Of course, the left wing media would say, but you have to bomb the cities. It's good for the climate. But for most people, they won't accept bombing US cities, so they use hurricanes. And they call it a natural disaster. And then they blame that on climate change. They can blame the climate for this. Also, at the same time all this is going on, the White House is on the verge of declaring a climate emergency. So after Milton hits Tampa and they have this near total wipeout of sectors of Tampa, they're very likely to declare a climate emergency. And you know what that entails? That gives the government total control over all fuel supplies, all gasoline, all diesel, all oil. They could crack down on combustion engines. They could ban the sale of vehicles with combustion engines. They can seize natural resources. They can issue emergency orders. They can use the military. Did you know that they just issued new updates to laws and regulations so that they could go around now and assassinate Americans? The government just gave themselves the right to assassinate Americans without any due process. Why do you think they just change that? Because they're gearing up to roll out execution squads, to murder Americans, just like they're hiring military contractors to run a FEMA response, denial of area operations. These are the kinds of things that the US used to do in Afghanistan. Now it's happening in Florida, it's happening in North Carolina. They just had a Black Hawk helicopter, used a bunch of rotor wash to blow apart a portion of a food rescue hub there. You may have seen that video. Black Hawk comes in right over the food rescue operation with the tents and the food and everything in North Carolina. Blown the rotor wash and then they rapidly change the pitch of the rotor blades in an acceleration move that blasts the helicopter upwards and that causes a massive gust of air to shoot downwards. You can see that's what they did. They did that on purpose and the cause reportedly as much as $100,000 worth of damage to that rescue operation. This is what the US military under Biden and Harris, this is what they're now doing. They are waging warfare against the American people. And I'm not saying that people should, you know, revolt or take up arms or anything like that. I'm saying you got to resist that. You got to maintain peace. because they're trying to trick you into some kind of armed escalation. That's what they want. They want a war. They want, this is J-6, okay, on a much larger scale. They want an insurrection in Florida or someplace like that. And they may even stage one themselves so they can have a false flag. But they want an insurrection, they, the government, they want an insurrection so they can claim that the American people are the enemy. And they could claim, oh, there's an attempted coup, or there's an insurrection underway. We have to crack down. We have to cancel the Second Amendment. And Biden would issue, you know, he'd sign something like, all firearms are illegal now in the hands of citizens. You're going to be arrested if you have firearms. And those confiscate guns, they'll shut down websites. They will seize fuel supplies. They'll seize food supplies. They're going to turn this country into an absolute war zone if we let them. And again, I'm not saying to do anything violent or escalatory, maintain your peace, but understand what's happening here. We need to be peaceful but firm. We need to call this out. You need to recognize that your government is an illegitimate occupying enemy force in Washington, D.C. They never won the election in 2020. They don't have the will of the people. They don't have the rule of law. They are ruling America as an occupying military force. and they want to take this into the military realm with martial law. They know that their political leaders, Biden and Harris, are low IQ, practically zombie people. They know that. They want military rule. How do they get there? They cause a big natural disaster, a so-called natural, hurricane milton, geo-engineered, they roll in, they destroy cities, and then they provoke a reaction. And then the media will jump in and say, look at the uprising. America's out of control. We've got to have a military crackdown. These people are a danger to democracy, is what they'll say. And by the way, when they say democracy, they don't mean what you and I think of as democracy, which is the will of the people. They think of democracy as the institutions of government control. This is why Hillary Clinton just went out and warned that they have to have extreme censorship all over social media. Otherwise, she said, we will lose control. Yeah. Of course you will lose control over your fake narratives, all your false information that you put out there. Of course you will lose control. That terrifies them. They are losing control. So they're going to whip up an emergency to try to regain control. And we have to make sure that we don't fall for that. We the people don't fall for it. Don't escalate violence. Don't take up arms. Instead, document. Film it show it post it on X post videos on bright down and rumble and bit shoot post it Document the abuses of power document the I'm gonna pause it right there at some point Okay, and I'm gonna sit this again. This is a video is posted in the gilded videos from Health Ranger report off of Brighton Which is another video streaming site apparently? This guy does a podcast. At some point, you either have, you're gonna have to face reality and protect your life. What is it? Old saying, you know, if you want peace, prepare for war. They think they want war. If they do do this crap and they bring it, you gotta be ready to put it down. and just ignore what the talking heads in the media are saying. Simple as that. Because no matter what you do in that situation, when your life, livelihood, your property, your belongings are on the line, your rights are on the line, they are not going to care. Interruption of survival supplies. And by the way, on that note, let me update you. We got the final numbers of our food fundraiser. As you know, for many days we offered a buy one, gift one fundraiser at the Health Ranger store with the donations handled through our new church, abundance.church. We thought we were going to raise $100,000. It turns out I got the final numbers late last night. It turns out we raised $558,000. So over half a million dollars in food. I was shocked. I thought even just two days ago I thought we were at $300,000. I thought maybe we'll hit $400,000. But anyway, it's $558,000. What that means is we have $558,000 worth of organic lab-tested food at the Health Ranger Store warehouse in Texas ready to roll. Actually, we've rolled out 10 pallets so far. So roughly, it's about $10,000 per pallet. So we rolled out about $100,000 worth of food so far to North Carolina. That's at the first staging area, which is at an airport near Hickory, Hickory, North Carolina, but it's not the Hickory Airport, it's another airport that's kind of nearby. We're waiting for instructions from that airport to send a second load. They've told us to hold off because they are reorganizing logistics for ground deliveries and they're joining with another team, they said. So... We're waiting for instructors to send more there at the same time. We've got a second location identified With a different team. We're confirming that we're confirming they have forklifts and pallet jacks to offload the pallets and we're confirming that tractor trailers can make it there and Then we're going to send another load to that second staging area even then that might be like 20 pallets, but we need to send a total of I want to say like 56 pallets or something like that. I mean we'll do the math at the end of all this and figure it out. But we need to send about 56 pallets of food, you know? And we've only sent 10 so far. So we're going to be sending food to Florida. And now, because that's the storm that's coming now and you know we're dedicated to helping the American people. We're going to send food to people in need, whether they're in North Carolina or Florida or Tennessee or wherever we can get landing zones or staging zones. So now we're very concerned about FEMA, of course, introducing supplies in Florida. We've got a really good team there and also SRP 24 with Steve Slepsovich. He's back in Tampa right now and they're scoping out the area for staging zones around Tampa. And Tina from the satellite phone store, they have an office there in Tampa. They've got a warehouse, by the way. I don't know if they can take, you know, 20 or 30 pallets, but they have some staging areas there. But we'll find out. We're coordinating all this right now. We're going to get more food over to those people in the Tampa area. But I don't even know what deliveries are going to be allowed. What food is going to be interdicted by FEMA? You know, at this point, it feels like we have to evade FEMA. to get food to people, it seems completely insane. It's like, why are we having to almost smuggle food to the American people when, you know, here we are at church, a non-profit, recognized church donating organic, clean food to people in need, and our own government is in the way. Like, that's where we are right now today. It's freaking infuriating. And I've been up late nights. coordinating with people because everything's changing all the time on the ground, the logistics of this are a freaking nightmare. And they keep changing the destination zones and, you know, our first driver only spoke Spanish, so I'm on the phone with him trying to remember all my Spanish. And it's like, man, why am I the one coordinating this? You know, I keep asking myself that question. It's like, well, nobody else is working at freaking midnight, but we're doing the best we can. My point is... Clearly the federal government is at war with the American people. They're trying to provoke an insurrection. They're going to deny people access to their own homes. They're going to deny food and probably water and everything else. FEMA is functioning now as a terrorist organization in America. They are blocking, they're sabotaging aid efforts and they're spending all their money on DEI, woke and migrants. FEMA doesn't give a crap about the American people. All they care about is helping illegals get set up with luxury apartments and food credits and phones. It's all about an invasion of America, so they're using weaponized weather to wipe out cities, to displace the American people, and to replace them with migrants that are funded by FEMA. That's what's happening in this country. You know, it's time for people to wake up. The invasion is full force. The invasion is on. And again, I'm saying, remain peaceful. Don't escalate this. But show it. Expose it. Take videos. Post videos. Tweet about it on X. This is what we've got to do. Expose all of this. And then maybe we have a chance to save America and save the American people.

Guys, if you want to watch the rest of that video for yourself, if you missed where it began, go over to the guild that is linked over there. It's also on their website, Brighton. What is this, Brighton.com? The name of the video is FEMA's Setting a Trap for Floridians to Try to Provoke Revolt. The list of stuff that he gave at the end there while telling you to suck up, take it, and just report it on it, you know. Yeah, there's gonna come a point where you can't just ignore and report on it because they're gonna, they're trying to take away your First Amendment. He knows it. Because he mentioned it in there. They want to take over social media. They want to take over things like YouTube, Facebook. Guarantee, that's why he's running his own, why their church is running their own site. Because if you put stuff like this over on YouTube, you would get demonetized. You get defunded. You'd be off the platform. You know? So, guys, good information, though. Something to look out for. If they are moving private security like BlackRock, BlackWater, BlackEagle, whatever, mercenary force that they are implementing, if they are using them for ground control in Florida, well that's going to say a lot because they're claiming they can't give people more than $700, you know, but they can pay Those mercenary companies, they're not cheap. They're not cheap at all. When we used them in Afghanistan, they were bragging to the soldiers over there how much money they were making as mercenaries compared to the guys who volunteered to put their life in danger. I can't stress that enough. Reporting on it, getting the information out there, yes, but be prepared to defend yourself. Because there's going to come a point when just reporting on it, they will ignore it. And they'll just go with whatever they want. You've got to be ready to defend yourself. We are at 6.51 PM right now. This is a English Town Hall meeting. If you're just tuning in, we played a video from Brighton, a ministry here in Texas, apparently, run by the Health Ranger and the Health Ranger Report. Again, the name of the video is FEMA setting a track for Floridians to try to provoke a revolt. Some good information in there, definitely. Let's see, I'm going to go back over to our gilding because we had some other stuff. That was up, news headlines. Let's see, I think we've got time to get this one in. A FEMA administrator pressed on why massive budget hangouts. turning on the ground in Florida ahead of Milton's landfall just a few hours from now FEMA says they are ready to respond and with that we bring in the FEMA administrator, DeAnn Criswell, administrator Criswell, welcome. Thank you very much for your time. I know you guys are very busy these days. You've had just back-to-back really difficult environments to work in so we are all pulling for you to be able to help. the people on the ground. I was watching Steve Harrigan a little while ago, our reporter in Tampa, and he was pointing to a nursing home, and that is one of the scariest things about this. Do you feel confident that the nursing home people have been able to be evacuated ahead of this? Martha, I was in Tampa on Monday and I met with the Mayor of Tampa and she expressed her confidence that those that were vulnerable to this storm that they were going to be moved to safety. I don't have the specifics, obviously, of the nursing home that you're talking about, but one of the things that we have done to make sure we can support her and the rest of Florida is we've moved in over 1,200 search and rescue personnel with helicopters, boats, and high water vehicles. So if there is anybody that didn't get out and that is in harm's way, we can begin to augment the incredible response that Governor DeSantis has put together for search and rescue and help get people to safety. So obviously, Florida is very different from western North Carolina, and I don't think anybody expected these mountainous regions to be in such desperate need of help. There was a piece in The Guardian today by Morgan Sykes, who's in Asheville. North Carolina residents and the headline is we're still finding dead neighbors in North Carolina. We need help. He says at least 2,227 people have died and the toll is getting higher. The rivers are giving up the dead. Landslides are yielding corpses. He goes on to say that nothing compares to the rage he feels for the lives lost and those displaced and those struggling to get too few services and a governmental response that has seemingly prioritized the most privileged. What do you say to Morgan Sykes in Asheville about that? So I just left a press conference with the governor and they reported that the number of confirmed fatalities across western North Carolina right now is 88. And my heart goes out to all of those families that have lost loved ones. And we know that they're still working through a list of unaccounted for. And it's even harder sometimes when you don't know. But the governor, Governor Cooper and his team are working hard to make sure that they can make get that list. whittled down and they can identify and account for everybody that was in the storm's path. Martha, we've been on the ground since before the storm happened and just because somebody didn't see a person in a FEMA shirt doesn't mean that they weren't getting support. This is a true whole of community response. It requires the response from not just my agency but the resources we've brought in from across the federal government. But the incredible support and work of the first responders that were on the ground, the National Guardsmen that were there before the storm hit, we all work together to make sure we're reaching all of these communities. No one agency from the local, the state, or the federal can do this alone. It takes all of us to make sure we're meeting everybody where they're at to get them the assistance that they need and they deserve. And we all appreciate all of these different entities, the private and the public, that are going in to help and the volunteers and the community helpers on the ground who've done an extraordinary job. I want to ask you about this report that there are staffing shortages at FEMA and this report came out Monday morning that just 9% of FEMA's personnel or 1217 people are available to respond to the hurricane or other disasters according to your agency briefing. So it used to be that there was like a quarter of the entire group available to be dispatched to these, but now it's only 9%. What happened there? Yeah, Martha, this has been an incredibly busy year. I have over a hundred different disasters that are open across the U.S. supporting recovery efforts. But we have a layered staffing approach. And the article that was in the New York Times that reported that they were looking at the numbers on our daily operations brief, and that is a focus of our disaster-specific staffing. But through our layered approach and how we plan for this, We can reach out across our federal agency itself, across FEMA, to bring people in that that isn't their primary job, to augment the work that we're doing. But we also then have the access of all of the people across the Department of Homeland Security in our surge capacity for us. We reach out to the federal government, the other federal agencies that also come in. I'm not saying that this is going to be easy Martha, but we've done this before you know we've managed multiple incidents at once like in 2017 with Harvey Irma and Maria We know how to do this we plan for this we're ready for this and we are going to make sure we meet everybody's let me ask you one question about that because I look at the budget the FEMA budget which has steadily risen every year And now we're hearing that you have enough money for right now, but that you might have to go back to Congress December-January. So even from 2021 to 2025, you have 7 billion more dollars at your disposal. So why, what's going on? I mean, why is that not enough money that's in your budget when it goes up every single year? Well, if you look at 2021, Martha, the biggest piece of that is the amount that we were providing to support COVID-19. We had a major disaster declaration in every state, every territory, and five tribes. But let's compare it to 2017, the year that you mentioned, which is the biggest hurricane year that we've had in a long time. So now there's so much more funding in 2024 than there was in 2017. So why is that still not enough? to get the job done. Yeah, again, the biggest difference 2017 is before COVID-19. The biggest increase in the cost and the tap on the disaster relief fund is COVID-19, but it's also the increase in the number of disasters. There's more, they're more complicated. They're more expensive recoveries to help these communities. And we continue to see more and more. I have over 100 open disaster declarations right now. We don't ever have that many and that number continues to rise because of the extreme weather events that we're seeing across the nation. Alright, well good luck to you. Administrator Criswell, thank you very much for joining me today. There's a lot of questions out there about all of this, but we really want people to be safe and taken care of. We know that you all are working on that, so I want to thank you for being here today. Thanks Martha. Hey, Sean Hannon. Can you say BS they did not? She kept asking like how come it's only nine percent? You know only nine only nine percent of their staff is on hand for the hurricane claiming that the rest of the 25 percent of the staff that they usually pull on 25 percent of their staff that they would usually pawn so they didn't they So what they've got nine percent which means that the rest of them are sitting on their arse and even if they're tied up in the Forest fires that were happening in California or Arizona or here in Texas If they were tied up with Maui how long ago were those events? You're telling me that you and you all usually only feel 25% of your people you tell me you couldn't possibly Possibly pull from the other 75% that's sitting on their ass. Excuse my language. They're sitting on their ass taking a paycheck and I guarantee you they're getting disaster pay right now too sitting on their ass. Didn't want to answer that question. No, we don't want to go there. Well, there's more stuff that's posted over in the gilded. There's a lot of stuff on the hurricane that you guys have been great about posting over there. But we are out of time. In fact, we're a minute over. We got the intelligence report coming up. Should have Mark here with us shortly if he's not already on the line. We're going to start Visitor from the Past, and when we get back, we'll be at the intelligence report. Figure walking through the mist with a flint. 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 revolution for liberty. We wrote the Constitution for future generations, this legacy we give. In this, the freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you could always keep. 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 attacks 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 given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country deep. 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 so their children will meet. 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? Those sons of the Republic arise to defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and eat God given right. Pray to God in bright, as Iowaw Key vanished in the midst of the months he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. Stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer? He called out from the grave. God bless this limited constitutional republic where we have rights, not privileges granted by some usurper. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the third hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Cornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southeast, north, northwest, and ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite and say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there. No matter what body of water you might be resting on right now, appreciate the fact that you're rebroadcasting us, both analog and digital. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And again, it's Friday! It's Cinque di Emo Day and Quartermaster Friday. It is the 11th of October and does everybody remember what happened on the 11th of October? What is the 11th of October famous for? That's much anymore, but the 11th of October. Think about it. Probably went right by you. Anyway, 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, Give it or old skis, gut captain. And 2024, Battle for the Republic, Book One, The Dance of Swords. How it all began, what started the conflict? And for everybody out there again, it's been a beautiful day. Actually, it's gotten warmer. We've got another front coming in, but it has gotten warmer outside, not cooler. Of course, we had chemtrails up the wazoo, and that's exactly what they were. Edward, go ahead, please. Getting at it. Still getting a red light from the battery backup, but it's charged up to 69%. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. On the 11th, you'd think I would know this because it's my birthday. I'm drawing a blank. Duh! It's Ed's birthday for everybody who doesn't know. That's not a blank. You said something historical that happened on the 11th. That's historical. For me it is, anyway. I'll bet you I remember it. I probably remember it. For everybody out there, again, if you want to say happy birthday to Ed, it would be kind of nice for those who might have remembered. Again, for everybody out there, Edward has been running the Liberty Tree Radio network originally as a homeschool project, just for everybody if you don't know. It continued to carry on for all these years quite successfully. and has been the battery backup. If anything happens, Liberty Tree Radio has been there and Edward has made it happen. So for everybody, that is an historical event. It is Ed's birthday. So everybody say happy birthday as you can. If you haven't done it already today. And we definitely appreciate and love him very much. Happy birthday Ed! I'm going to bring you some new batteries. There we go see here I hear jingles the iron jingles and ring dear even as we speak happy birthday, Ed Happy birthday There you go. Thank you for everybody and again. It has been a very interesting day. Oh Old enough Okay Well, let's put it this way. It's been a while, okay, which is good. Everybody's learned. Had a lot of lessons learned. Since I want to bring up doing math anyway, it's 2024 and I was born in 1980. I know, I'm just saying, I did the math at 44, you know. My wife is behind me. So you're 44? You're fewer younger than I am. Holy crap, you're an old man already. Well, like I said, I've been here for a while. But no, doing the math yet. I don't know if you heard the video that we played at the end. It was on FEMA's budget thing. But she says something, the interviewer, to avoid the budget, the FEMA representative says something that either went over the host head or they didn't think about it. Now FEMA has a staff of however many people, but whenever there's a disaster going on, they only call on about 25% of those people. Well, because of the other quote-unquote disasters that have happened this year, they've only been able to call on 9% of that, 25% of the people, because of those 25% or someplace else. Well, wait a minute. It's probably calling on 25% of your staff in the first place. Doesn't that mean you have another 75% of the staff you can bring online for these disasters? As an ongoing infection, because remember staff is an infection. Everybody remember that. Yeah, but but but but you're not supposed to figure that out. Shame on you. And again, it's not a surprise. Number one is the show for the Tennessee and North Carolina fiasco, the only show has been Patriots. The system itself is a worthless tool, but we've already known that. Nobody should have been holding their breath and nobody did. You'll notice that a lot of experienced people didn't hesitate, didn't wait, but just stepped up and started doing. The problem is then the pieces of trash would have no social norm, they have no honor. Then all of a sudden FEMA is like, yeah that's us, we're the ones up there today. The fact that they have not sprung into action, but rather taken days and days to respond, even with the National Guard in the different aspects of FEMA, two helicopters for the entire operation, two Blackhawks from the Guard, where are the rest? No, I know where. big chunk of a bar they're trying not to talk about it but you know what gets me about this guys where's Fort Campbell Kentucky I don't know if Fort Campbell's had his name changed and I don't really care where's Fort Campbell Kentucky anybody ever driven the past there any bill for years everybody's talking about that man every time I go by Fort Campbell there's ATMs and helicopters what is what's the purpose what's what is stationed there at Fort Campbell? Well, a whole bunch of aviation because the special warfare units traditionally were stationed there. Now, how much has been stripped out and is overseas? You'll listen to me in, say, Israel? Or is surreptitiously in, oh, wait a minute, how about maybe Yuck Rain? But otherwise, guys, why didn't the resources of Fort Campbell swarm down and provide a massive wave of support. Why didn't the assets from Fort Bragg sweep up and assist from that direction? Where are they? Everybody understand? Guys, do a quick search. In fact, here's the thing. Google. I don't own Google. Google. Army bases in CONUS. That's continental United States. Army bases in CONUS. And then what you want to do is there will be images. You want maps. You want a map. And I want you to look at how many different bases are in the sphere of operation where these incidents took place and yet they are a what? They're all a no-show. I don't care about FEMA because FEMA doesn't really have that much of a core resource. FEMA was originally supposed to be to a degree management and again coordinating mechanism. Okay, so what's it supposed to coordinate? What's there? They already stated that what, they had five groups of 10 individuals, that's the FEMA footprint on the ground initially. Really? And as Ed pointed out, well, any given time, they only mobilize 25%. Well, then, like you said, where's everybody else? Why is everybody else sitting on their hands? Any other time, and I would point this out too, in fact, let's do this. Katrina, Katrina, Katrina. When Katrina hit under a neocon republic rat, regional police were brought in from all points of the compass. The cops that beat down the grandma that everybody saw on video, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, were all from California. They were all California gun confiscation cops. And lo and behold, they got to practice door-to-door operations. So it's already obvious that they have the ability and the resources to pull people from any part of the United States that they want. But on top of that, they have literally a reserve, a serfiate, a massive pile of facilities all right there in that area of activity and none of them with their minty little red shoes and their cross-dressing classes and their faggotism and their Satanism and their queerism are showing up. Isn't that fascinating? I think it is. So again, this is intentional. It's one of the many acts of war against the population. Notice I'm not screaming. It's expected and so far we've done a pretty good job of responding. Now something I'm going to bring up here is an idea. And I mentioned this yesterday, but I wanted to bring it up again, and I've kind of been touching on it with a lot of other people. There are a whole bunch of land yachts up here in Michigan. In fact, all you do is go to Facebook. Go to Facebook Marketplace and punch in RVs. One of the things about the operations with the volunteers that are down there is that they have to go back to a base of operations. And usually, because again, the distances are an issue, having a forward deployment point for support of the troops is difficult only because again, you've got to decamp, you have to move everything up to wherever, recamp, and then you have to have what you're doing is creating redundant resources and operations that are better consolidated for the more critical issues. You can buy a Landya here, a 45 foot, I mean, God, some of these things, they are buses. They literally are made by one of the bus companies in Ohio. But they're not buses, they're the standard RVs, the big bus size RVs. And single axle or dual rear, some are dual. $1,500 for a serviceable machine. I've already looked at two. Now, there's no roof leaks. One, the only thing is the carpet could be replaced and the first thing I thought is, hey, let's talk to somebody who is up this way and drive the thing in, have them replace the carpet. Absolute chintziest, cheapest, if they can donate. In fact, we don't even care what color it is. What do you got? What do you got that nobody wants in the way of a carpet? Well, this is kind of a baby poop pukie kind of whatever thingy. Ah, it'll be perfect. Put that in there. I'll tell you what, can you donate it? Now, for $1,500, these have 454 Chevy engines, beautiful engine, runs phenomenally well. They usually can easily house four, six, or eight people if they do it right with these campers. And the big thing is that they have on-board generators, they have on-board showers and mats. They have all kinds of storage space. They've got lower cargo and storage space, so even your logistic support items, cables, chairs to set up outside, many of them have canopies built onto the side of them. This is a perfect traveling road show garrison operation. Five of them. $1,500 a piece. Well, go ahead. That's cheap for that. That thing is huge and that's cheap. Really? Right. Well, my point is, in fact guys, every time I hear somebody tell me, oh, I couldn't afford to fill in the blank. It's like, really? You don't look very hard. You can live out of one of these. I mean, literally, if anybody gets the idea, well, I'll get there and hit a mark. I don't care. But if I were, in fact, there's varying conditions. Now, that's the other thing. One of them is ready to roll right now. Everything's on board, everything, you know, it's turn the key, everything does what it's supposed to do. It starts, stops, turns, all the heat works, all the AC works. It has an onboard, own and generator. Now here's the thing, some of the bigger ones, and I've noticed that typically the ones with two axles have two generators on board. They're both 110s. They're all own and rack generators built for the industry. So, the neat thing is, is that they're all pretty much consistently the same unit under the dash there, well actually off to the side of the RV. They do have a number of different features. I'm not excited about the expandables, but it seems that the expandables are now old enough since some have been around for 20, 25 years, that half of these that I just looked at casually, I think they make a hard effort to look. At least half, I would say, have an expander, which means that the thing literally opens up to be like a massive living room in the middle of the camper. Not my first choice. I would rather it just be as simple as possible, because it's just another thing to go wrong if that thing won't roll back where it belongs. But for the price, these things aren't going down the expressway. The idea is they go down the expressway one more time. And we get them down there or whatever location and then they're just going to be traveling a few miles at a time until they reestablish the next camp closer to the work site. One of the other important things is that in many cases they've taken these roads and worked their way up into another village or another dot on the map. Well, typically everybody's got a parking lot somewhere. You know, either a small business or a shop or whatever. There's usually every town's got something in it. So being able to establish the camp forward means that the guys don't have to travel hours just to get to the work site. And the advantage is that they have all of the conveniences that you would have if they went back to the base camp. This also allows for more than one direction of activity for the force or unit. In other words, if you have 10, 15, 20 guys working in a road crew, you allocate the vehicles necessary to support them. Now, you're still going to have to, they have onboard sewage tanks, they have onboard water, so you're going to have to replenish at some point. But if you end up in one of these little towns, Interestingly enough, a lot of them usually have like an RV dump and in some cases even a little RV park or a campsite somewhere. So all of the support for it is relatively rustic. If power is available, you can plug them into 110 and run them that way. You don't have to worry about having the generator and the battery packs working. So again, for the price, by the way, are they ugly? No, they're not. That's what's really amazing. In fact, like I said, if you I argued this years ago with some of our truck drivers, and a lot of them have already been doing it, but you buy one of these RVs, you put it in an RV park for $60 or $100 a month, and you get electrical, you get sewage dump, and you got a house. I mean, literally, these are not like a little, like, this is not a van construction. I don't have a problem with those, but we're talking something that is like a small house. One person by yourself could live incredibly comfortably. I mean, it'd be like you're in the Taj Mahal for all practical purposes. And what do you pay per month for rent out of place? Well, quite a few of our friends, we got them out of Detroit because Detroit was sinking back in the 80s and early 90s. I mean, already his song was sunk then, really. And a couple of our guys, one of them, he was a taxi driver in Detroit. Well, what did he do? At the beginning of spring, he went out and went over to one of the resale shops and got a really nice three chamber tent. Went out to the north end of Washtenaw County here and rented for $20 a month a campsite. Now, with the campsite, you got shower, hot and cold water. You could go to the lake. There was a lake on the camp. It's a state run campsite. And all he had to do was make sure that you paid up. And so what he did, he left his apartment, he left everything in Detroit, he boxed everything up, he went out there and put the tent up, and then he worked his ass off every hour that he could from the beginning of the spring as soon as he could get out there all the way through to the next fall. And almost every dollar that he earned went towards getting some place to live. By the time, uh oh. Are we still here? Talk, talk, talk. I hear you. That's weird. Anybody hear that alarm? Yes. That was my alarm from my influence. Oh, that's okay. Well, don't. Okay, Tom. Make sure you get that. I don't need to hear about you flopping on the floor there. Okay. No, you had to be bothered because it was like that's the same alarm we hear when this disconnect takes place. Okay, what are you talking about? Yeah, it'd be worried. Well, if a disconnect happens, the system is calling back. Somebody's connecting. Go ahead. Remember Eric Holder saying, we've got to keep at this and literally brainwash the people into thinking of guns in a vastly different way. And he grinned about that, too. Right. Remember that? Yes. Yes, I remember when he said this. Yes, yes, I know what he was talking about. We covered that quite extensively. OK. Don't want to go away from what we're talking about here. The big thing here right now with regard to the vehicles is again, they're not just here in this part of the country, but this is probably one of the best areas to look for this as a solution because this is where they build them. If you take a look at the company names and where they're centered out and where they build, in fact a lot of guys that are allies are part of the Patriot effort. move campers all over the United States. That's the job. And they're built here. They ship them out all over every point of the compass. One of the things, though, that's been happening, and again, this is like I said before, a lot of these get picked up. And where everybody's now become a street hobo out in California or the San Fag Cisco area or up where Portland is or Seattle, Tacoma. What's happening is they're ending up with piles of these with people driving up there, park them, and then just let them sit. And they don't do anything to keep them up. So they're now ending up with whole bunches of these that have been confiscated, slash, towed by the cities. And they don't know what to do with them because they are an odd breed. Remember, they're literally a house on wheels. It's not like you're scrapping a big chunk of steel. The frames are steel, the motors are obvious, but most of it is built like a light duty house. So they're sitting there staring at them trying to figure out what to do with them. Only because they were hoping that if they confiscated them that people would pay money to get them back. And instead, since the people were limited to begin with, they'd just walk away from them. Just something to consider there. These are an interesting solution. They're not outrageously expensive. Again, if you had an ally or actually if you had a flight, you keep moving, you'd go from truck stop to stop or from location to location. It would be a lot more comfortable than that tent I was talking about that our friend used. At the end of the summer and into the early fall, our friend was able to walk in and buy a place. Because every dollar that he collected, he saved. And he worked every hour that he possibly could. So just a heads up, one of those many things where people say, you can't be done. Sure you can. But you have to have a different attitude. You don't listen to the pattern and the method that the school system promotes because it's designed to keep you corralled into the you need to be in debt system. And we need to start looking at other solutions. But most important at this point in time is that this would be an excellent way for people to sponsor and support the groups down there without you having to worry about where the money goes. We put in a bat, we fixed it up a little bit more, checked everything, we drove it down, helped them out down there. When we left, we left it. It's a hell lot cheaper than buying a hotel room. Actually, by the time you're done with four, five, six people, you can gang up our room, it's just the idea that the cost would be absolute minimal and the benefit would be all the way around. You get the use of it, and when you're done, you can donate it to the cause and it's used in the fight, which makes it a useful tool. Okay? We're at the bottom of the hour, and this is Friday, and it's the last day, last hour of the week going into the weekend. We haven't done it in a while. Yellow Rose of Texas by Alderon Tiron. I haven't played that one in a bit. We got our friends listening down on the border, not just in Charleston, Arizona and Southern California. There are a couple of the militia units that are monitoring the cartels down there on the east side, the eastern end of California up there in the mountains. They've been busy and working for a very, very long time. Some of the longest standing militia formations to work on the border that are out there. We have many in Arizona too and certainly quite a few that are in Texas. But Texas has been the roller coaster. They've betrayed us several times. They've continued to fiddle part with, you know, trying to placate the bad guys and the end result is what you see now. Of course, now they're here in three putting their foot down. So yellow rows of Texas. Ed, if you could drag that up for us, here we go. She cried so when I left her, he liked to broke my heart And if I ever find her, we never more shall part She's the sweetest rose of color that the soldier ever knew Arise some brightest diamonds, this port will like to do You may talk about your winsome maids and sing of Rosalie For the evil rose of Texas, beat the bells of Tennessee the army of my state. We marched down to the border and there we made it safe. Against that storm from Mexico we all stood firm and true. And each night as the stars emerged my thoughts returned to you. This rose of cower that this soldier ever knew. Her eyes of brightest diamonds and they sparkle like new. You may talk about your instant maids and sing of Rosalie. For the yellow rose of Texas leads the bells in Tennessee. In the heart of proud old Houston. The federal mine with grit, sexy marriage we've bought into the night Because of our struggle under the city's glow Yet in the silence between the shots I mister's soft pillows forever knew For I surprised at diamonds and they sparkled like the dew You may talk about your wind and nave and sing a brosany But the yellow rose in Texas beats the bells in Tennessee Virginia with the Rangers I was sent Where in those gold-dark trenches many a night was spent Amidst the chill and danger, her memory was my boss I'd walk close to her image, just soothing colors at the soldier I ever knew But I'm surprised as diamonds and they sparkle like to do Looked about your wins and mazes, seeing how frozen he is For the yellow rose, Texas beats those bells in Tennessee As I trudge through this new war-torn land, her love it is my guide. And with each burning sunset's glow, through the unmet eye, through smoke and blood and battle cries, when truth remains to be, that the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl for me. Rose of color that the soldier ever knew. Her eyes of bright and diamonds and the sparkle light they do. Happy birthday to Edward again, by the way. Just make sure we reinforce that. A special day. And Yellow Rosa Texas, Elder on Tyran, he's a Filk musician. F-I-L-K, Filk. Oh, that sounds quite a big scene! No, it's actually future history past music is the best way to explain it. and with filth music it's sci-fi typically, but a lot of the filth authors have gone off into other work. And so let's see, Leslie Fish I believe it's when it all fell apart. And if I'm wrong, Ed, see if you can find it. I want you to pay attention to this song because it fits with what just happened in North Carolina and Tennessee. What do you do with FEMA when FEMA hockey pucks up? Well, he kind of explains. She, forgive me, Leslie Fish, the day it all fell apart, I think is the name of the song, Ed. It's apropos. for what you're seeing right now. And again, ignore the BS-ers, throw out the rules, here we go. Pay attention to the words. The day it fell apart. And when the FEMA guy showed up and said you were all breaking the rules, we grabbed the FEMA guy and tied him to that door and just kept sucking the blood out of him until he couldn't give no more. Wouldn't that be poetic? That would be a beautiful sight, wouldn't it? Oh, you can't do this! Yes, yes we can. Hold still. This is going to hurt a lot. And appropriately so. So again, for everybody out there, Leslie Fish. And Leslie Fish, another couple, actually her later album, and it's the one I have not gotten completely, You know what, it's Friday. We're going to catch up because for three hours we didn't. Let's see, what song can we not 30 Hot 6? I don't think we can find that one. But Hose Down. Leslie Fish. Hose Down. Ed, see if that's still posted somewhere. And that's another song for everybody out there. Again, remember, spray and pray doesn't work every day. In fact, most of the time it doesn't. Just a heads up on that one. But Leslie, here we go. There we go, a classic. We haven't played it in a while, so we needed to do that. Leslie Fish Hose Down. Should be able to find it on YouTube. I think it's also on Rumble. Might even be on Bitchute too, because I noticed that some of Leslie Fish's work has shown up over on Bitchute, which is cool. So wherever you can find it, take advantage of it, and used it. And again, that's Leslie Fish Hose Down. And we're headed to the, well we got 15, 16, 17 minutes, hold on, what is my bomber clock? Say my French night bomber clock and it's dark outside so this is when this French bomber clock would be working. Hold on, it would wind it up some more. Can you hear the winding of this Swiss French World War I bomber clock? It says that we have 17 minutes and 30 seconds exactly as I scan the second hand, the sweep. It has a separate little second hand inside another little dial so you literally can micro separate the seconds. Remember this was a night bomber clock so this was probably as much as anything used for night navigation. And for the navigator it's azimuth, estimated speed, well air speed, and then calculating distance and resistance. Don't forget you still have environmental conditions you have taken consider when you are in flight. especially with the planes that were made of bird and they were made of canvas mandu. So again, for everybody out there, go into the weekend and see how you can remember. Fox wolf and the rustic still no decision on the name. I'm waiting for that so I can put it into the repertoire of it so far. Oh no luck. So guys, fire under your arse and get that done. Also Fort Benning, Michigan. They decided to scrap the names of all our traditional forts. You know what we did? Picked them up. We're going to start building more. And again, since we're going to be fighting in Michigan as Michiganders on Michigan soil, You better make sure we have everything squared away now. We can't wait until later. You don't wait until the last minute. So a lot of work to do. I don't have time to get it all done, but we will continue. Don't forget, play DJ. I have said this many times, but if you're operating the radio station tonight, take the time and have some fun. This is also how you learn. To your left, all those CDs and all those cassettes and there's even records and one or two of you got record players, not all of you. I should make sure that that changes. I even have one that has a reel to reel because I just upgraded that particular site. I got a machine I should have kept, but I got to get it away from me because there's too much stuff piling up and I have a lot of equipment that needs to be saved from disaster. Couldn't move it if we got into a real situation right now, not all of it. So I need to change that, which we are. But one of you has a reel-to-reel. By the way, the reel that's in there, that's from 1954, and it is a personal studio. Actually, not studio, forgive me. It was a live broadcast in Cincinnati, Ohio. The tape that's in there, I left the tape in the machine because it's worth listening to. It is unique. So, heads up on that one too. If you guys are sitting there, you might want to enjoy yourself and play some unique music tonight. Anyway, also, reminder at Quartermaster Friday, something that I didn't mention, you can slap mark right in the microphone for this one. Over at SportsmansGuide.com, they have a chip plate slash a throat and chin armor element. It is compressed Kevlar and I believe ceramic, though I have to actually do a little background check on it. If you have the Italian or if you have the French body armor that was out about two, three years ago, these are additional armor inserts for the Gorges, although in this case it's more just direct, you know, it depends on who built the armor. Originally when you called it Gorges, it sits right in front of your neck and under your chin. $2.69 and if you take advantage of all of the other deals, this is a chunk of ballistic armor protection for pennies. It's Italian. It's Italian military stuff plus if any of you guys have any of the best, you can actually insert this into the other pockets is what I've always thought. If I can get hold of any additional panels, especially for the gut, A lot of your body armor has lower pockets that are for utility work. Guys, insert additional panels there. And especially in this case, these are rigid. Now they do have a cleft because they're designed to sit right in front of your chin. But for $2.69, excuse me, make sure I get that right again. For $2.69, and I think it's a little less, they just came down in price. I bought 10 right away. I'm going to buy 10 more at least as quickly as I can. But if you get any discounts like the 10% for being a new buyer, or if you go over to the Sportsman's Guide catalog and look through the catalog, get a catalog and keep it. There is another code for additional discounts in there. Most people forget that. It's good for a year or two years. I think they've used the same code now for three catalogs. So you get additional discounts. And you're talking getting one of these pieces of armor for $2 by the time you're done. And remember, free shipping. Just make sure you buy enough stuff to make your free shipping. There's all kinds of other good stuff that's there. I've got a chance to take a close look at the revival. ponchos. They are a serviceable poncho. You could use them as an issued poncho. They're a little darker than OD green. They're headed towards the forest green. Who cares? They're black and there's green. Get the green one if you want to issue it out with the rest of your gear. They're $8 apiece. That's the cheapest poncho in the market for something that actually kind of holds up. It's a ripstop poncho. So, you might want to check them out. It's the Revival Municipal. It's US Municipal Poncho. $8.00 and some odd cents. The armor, again, is listed under the Italian surplus, so the easiest way is put Italian surplus and go through and you'll find the item. It's in the discounts and the clearance right now, too. In addition to that, there are a number of other filled by. MOLLE items that are giveaway prices. If you are in need of a padding system for your backpack frame, they have the lower fillba in the Coyote Brown lower waist strap with the padding and everything and they look great. I just got a bunch of them because I need more. I've got, I counted it out, I got 132 MOLLE frames and I don't have enough suspension systems for them. Well, these are $2 again, about $2.59 a piece for the used one. I bought the used ones because I don't care, but I'm going to tell you something. I bought the used ones and most of them you can't tell that they've been used. So instead of $3, you get the one for $2.59 per few of them. But if you're going to put, again, the packs together using the MOLLE frames, you can find the marine parts if you look long enough. I mean, they're just the same as with the Army MOLLE, M-O-L-L-E. The big thing here is you can mix them. And the neat thing is that the Army frame, I think, is more adaptable than the Marine frame. So just a heads up. Again, I'll give you a review. I'm probably even going to do a little video. I haven't done that in a while, but because we're collecting odds and ends pieces, we're going to kind of show everybody what happens, what can you do with these to mix and match. One of the things about the US military MOLLE frames is that, guys, any of your backpacks will go on those things. There are so many connector points. In fact, if you just take a look, how many different strap points there are. You can make any backpack work on that frame. And I've seen a lot of guys are using the MOLLE frame because it's cheaper. It has been. Now it's up and down price-wise. But they're still cheaper than the Alice are going for right now. So it's something to think about. Now there's another company, and I have not had a chance to look at all their gear yet, but there's another company that has complete MOLLE surplus used probably grade two. I don't care for me. I'm not worried about pretty. They're durable, they're functional, but for $29, that includes shipping. It's frame, suspenders, backpack, and the kidney belt for $29. Actually, the price is 19, but unfortunately the shipping is $10 per unit, maybe a little less if you bought 40 or 50 of them. I'll see what happens, but I'll find out. But as it is again, there's some really good buys out there, but it's not the prettiest now with those filba coyote brown Kidney pads I just mentioned they look great now that's from Sportsman's guide and there are two dollars and I think 59 cents a unit You can't beat that so again solutions not just whining about the problems Because we got to make every penny count if you can only spend if you only have to spend pennies to get the job Done you got dollars to spend where you need it Okay, just something to think about there. Also, with regard to receivers, upper receivers right now, keep an eye on apexgunparts.com. We mentioned them yesterday when we were talking about the Canics. They have been hawking the country, obviously, everybody is. They're making deals all over the place. But AR-15 uppers, now we're not talking anything collectible. The Colt uppers are ridiculous prices. They want way too much, I think. But for regular production uppers they had a batch that came in for $125 complete with a key type front end with the metal type front hand guard. I don't care either way about it because I told you before I'm looking for cheapest for the mostest. However, somebody spoke and got pretty much all of them in a real short time. In addition to that, over Apex they still have the best price for The humanitarian MREs, go take a look at it. They've got them in single cases. That's the most expensive way to buy them. But if you can only get one or if you only think you need one, oh well. I recommend at least getting the three count because you lose $10 per unit. And if you can get a bunch of friends together, pallets. And if you buy pallets, if you can get one, try to get two. Because that's where you save that second pallet because of the cost in shipping and how much cheaper it is. It brings the overall cost of per case down. Now these MREs, humanitarian, are three meals for each pouch. It's not one meal per pouch and there's ten pouches. There are all the calories for one day per person. in each pouch. You're getting all three basic meals. They give it to you at once. You figure out how to eat it. It's that simple. You're the adult. It's your job, not mine to keep track of you. A lot of European armies do the same thing. They actually issue out day rations. They don't issue out a meal. On the other hand, our regular MRE is enough to live off from pretty much by itself, which, depending on how supply works in bad days, That may be all you get. Anyway, that's again for the rations, the humanitarian rations over at apexgunparts.com. The body armor part, the Italian chip slash gorges, that's a hard panel, that's not a soft floppy. This is a hard rigid, you know, the rating is on the back. Let's put it that way. I have to double check to see what it's good for. I don't care because what I'm going to use them for is for shoulder armor. Because they have a clef the way they're built, Nancy's going to make pockets for each of these. We'll put one on the left and one on the right and beef up the side armor on the shoulder, which is bad if you get hit there. Ball joint area gets hit. Oh, that's not good. So just a heads up. Anyway, ideas. Take a look at it. Figure out what you want to do with it. Maybe. Maybe you don't. But it is a solution to deal with some of the issues that are going to crop up down the road and more more chunks of armor in front of you around you or in your vehicle to help. And there's two different ways you can mount that in the shoulder. You can flip it and put the cleft down below or you can flip it with the square panel down and the cleft up and actually mount it right to the edge of the shoulder, right to the top of the shoulder. The other way it actually overlaps and comes up to the sides for neck protection. which is something else taken into consideration. Anyway, ideas. Now, we're almost to the top, but not quite. For everybody out there, going into the weekend, guys, practice living without. I think one of the biggest problems we've got with what I'm hearing, and I'm hearing it over and over again, first of all, you should know we pretty much banned cell phones at the training sites. That's been from the beginning. We already knew it would happen, and lo and behold, yep, the government's tracking people. So, cell phones are non-grattas across the board there. But communications in general, you need to work on SOP, Standard Operating Procedure. You need to be ready to be able to operate as a team in silence and to be able to move from point A to point B with direct line of sight, signal communications, utilizing other technologies. Now, I will remind you, I've mentioned this many times, YAGI antennas. With the YAGI antennas, 92 to 94, if you're really lucky, 96% of your signal goes straight down that antenna and it either shoots mostly forward but also to the rear. So you've got two points of the compass where if you ran into that, you'd know something was there, but until you can align yourself with it, you can't hear it. So, Yagi technology, you want to take a look at that. With the FM and with the 800 Meg, even with the cell phones, you can do a lot of interesting work and create a lot of operational security. And it's not really super unique tech. It's actually very simple to do. So, in fact, you should be able to find some really great videos still out there on any of the different services like YouTube, I think even over at Rumble. Some people have slid over there and are doing a lot more work there, which is cool. Take the time, check it out, and you'll see what I'm talking about. So, let's see, last but not least, happy birthday to Edward. We're going to make sure that we rub that in. It's Edward's birthday today, in fact, all the way to midnight. And then some. And if it weren't for Ed, we wouldn't be here right now, guys, because Ed's the one who was chief cook and bottle washer making it happen here with Liberty Tree Radio. So it's all, again, understand and appreciate the person there that's doing the job. And, oh, let's see, one more, oh, hold on, somebody else. We have a happy birthday, Edward. From Cynthia in, hold on here. from Cynthia in Wyoming and the Wyoming re-broadcast group says happy birthday to Edward. Hold on here and I got... Sorry guys, I have to multitask. It just started raining. Okay, Mario. Well, we made it to the top. Anyway, for everybody out there, guys, you get a lot of work to do this weekend, let's stay the course. Remember our friends that are down there working on the ridge. If you can help them out, help them out. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. We are on the march both day and night. Guys, for everybody out there, God bless y'all. Don't forget if you can, donate to Liberty Tree Radio. We've got the end of the year, last quarter, the pay forward with the bills for next year. And if you want to get in the drawing, just go to LibertyTreeRadio.4ng.com, go to the donate key, make sure you put in the notations after you dial whatever dollar amount you donate, put in the notation donation. And then also a mailing address, because if we pull your name, you've got to know where to send the goodie. And again, libertytreeradio.4mg.com, donate whatever dollar amount or whatever dollar you put in, your name goes in the hat for every dollar. 10, 10, 20, 20, 30, 30, et cetera. And then make sure you put in the notation. Donations, again, for drive. and your mailing address. Make sure you got that zip code right too. Most common mistakes made that we've had a few times happen. Bring me out of the way for now. Edward's taking over more LPRs. Happy birthday to Edward! Everybody say happy birthday while we're leaving. God bless. Bye bye.
