freedom's gone your courage lost you're no more than a slave in this the lane 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 use 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 harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail Your public servants don't uphold the solemn holds. They've sworn and your daughters So their children your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children would then fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the midst of the once he came, his words were true. But we have ourselves to blame. For even now his parents trampled each god-given right. We only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside and scream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories East, South, Northwest, and North. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com and we're on the satellite. We want to say hi to all of our listeners and also rebroadcasters, usually one and the same virtually across the planet. We're in every body of water that exists at one point or another. I probably wish they had more water in California right now. They actually do. It's just totally being mismanaged because of the orders of the communist Chinese. More on that in a minute. But it is? Well, that's right. It is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 16th year of open, obvious, and in-your-face Fabian socialist. and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America, the K-2024. Oh, correction. I am going to keep wanting to do that. 2025, Old Earth Calendar, 2025, Battle for the Republic, Book One, The Dance of Swords. And the dance continues. We are busy. We have a lot of work ahead of us. We still got half of the work week before us right now. We're already planning on the weekend. That's how busy it has been and we're not finished with the work week yet. So guys stay focused. We're gonna get a lot accomplished here. I mentioned fires of course. I'm not gonna dwell on it too much. It's just at what it is is mismanagement and you'll notice as we've said several times here that there's a lot of traditionally available information that they've just excluded so that you just you know it's a total mystery as to why we have these oh that's right wildfires taking place in California where we've had wildfires for as long as I've lived and they always happen for the exact same reason you got the winds coming off of the ocean plus you've got don't forget the I Well, go where you're standing, which happens a lot to individuals who might have adult bodies, but unfortunately, childlike minds. And that's what we have now. We have a lot of childlike minds, but not delightful children. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. There was a bad puppy in the litter that's socialist America. And you got to remember, we're the fire-saving place, socialist-slash-communist California. It's failure time intentional. It's not happening accidentally. It's not because there's some kind of mystery, nothing we've ever seen before. It's intentional. And they're going to continue to be operating towards failure as long as we allow the communists to continue to occupy pieces of real estate on American soil. So that we get rid of their sorry ass, we can do things right. So just that simple. But anyway, Fire is out west, no sense in trying to debate how it could be done right because nobody is listening anyway. Instead, prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. You need to take a look at the situation in your area and make sure that you are ready to deal with unique threats like that before they happen. But you need to work with allies in the process. Intelligent human beings. We've got the thinkers, they've got the stinkers. A couple of the things here too, interestingly enough the way that they're now trying to fiddle-fart their way out of discussion with the attack that took place in lost wages. That whole thing of course is kicked back on them. I think they were hoping they were going to get more panic in year zero. We were all supposed to beg for a bigger police state and nobody's talking that way. Everybody pretty well figures, nah, it's the regime, it's the spit swappers doing what they do and we're not giving them anything. And that's been the repeat by a lot of people all over the country. Congratulations, I think we've saturated the battlefield quite well. I think the enemy has done so much to ruin their own reputation that it wasn't much necessary to be done to, you know, jog everybody's brain into looking at the situation properly and now they're trying to deflect in whatever way. And of course, it's almost like Trump spewed virtually every element of NAFTA and GAP Part 3 in less than what, five days? I actually had to sit there for a minute, sitting and listening to one of the programs today, one of the broadcasts with Trump in the background, so to speak, everybody making comments. We always do, everybody does. But it's interesting that most people who are our age, or I should say anybody who's been in the Patriot effort or in this fight knows full well that every aspect of what Trump has brought up is the third tier of NAFTA and GATT and the North American Free Trade Agreement which includes the Amero, Cashill Society, anybody recognize all of this? Well sure we do. This is exactly what we've been talking about, people have been warning about. And Trump obviously is acting like everybody is a stinking lemming that doesn't have the brains God gave geese. And that will just waddle over the cliff, if we're told to do so, by the Trumpite. And that isn't happening either. Go ahead, I think we got Tom there. Tom, what do you got? So, here's an article. State police seek and volunteers for training exercises. Again, state police seek and volunteers for training exercises. State police seek and volunteers for training exercises. Lansing is ever get pulled over by a trooper and wish it was all pretend. You may be in Michigan State Police to seek in volunteers from the community to participate in scenario-based training exercises for its upcoming trooper recruits school. Its goal is to create a pool of volunteers that represents Michigan's population to best prepare recruits to serve communities across the state. We have had great success with our civilian active program and previous troop recruit school says Colonel James F. Grady II, Director of the MSP, involving members of the public in recent training allows recruits in a controlled setting to experience more realistic interactions with the public that they will serve. It is a meaningful learning experience for everyone involved. The exercises will be held at two locations, the MSC, the MFP Training Academy, and Lansing on very safe between February 12th to May 8th, and at the Fort Costa Training Center, Battle Creek on May 21st and May 22nd. Individuals are needed for the following scenario, traffic stops and or arrests, domestic violence, civil disputes, larceny, retail frauds, to volunteers, you must be at least 18 years old, have a valid driver's license, and agree to a criminal background check. Applicants who are approved will be required to complete a class prior to the exercise, including legal instructions, roleplay, responsibility, safety, and introduction and practice sessions. Applications can be complete online through January 15. If you have previously been accepted into the program, you do not need to reapply. Those who are selected will receive a confirmation email with additional instructions for the civilian active program class registration to be held in February and recruit training exercise registration. So there you go Mark, you can be a volunteer for the Michigan State Police. Right, right, and of course right off the bat, as is pointed out there, remember you got to go through that there background check and pat on the head and squeeze on the rumpus and then you get to be a meat puppet slash a stunt dummy so that they can practice bowling over Michiganders on Michigan's highways and more. Although, again, I've done work like that. That's what OptFor does. In this day and age, I would stay absolutely clear of that and no way, shape, or form would I assist or participate in their operations. And I recommend that if anybody has seen This Is Your Michigan, Cold Day in Hell should be the expression. Everybody understand what I'm saying? Cold day in hell. Why? Well, again, Michigan State Police cannot be trusted. One of the things to remember is even in a training environment, these idiot sticks go crazy town. That sounds weird, but we have a lot of experience. Again, the different tiers of the mechanism, the state, If things don't go their way, they become vindictive. If it doesn't go their way simply because it's their fault, they become vindictive. In one situation with a training operation, the entire SRT It required almost three months of psychiatric care, psychiatric evaluation after the fact because of the number of problems that they had facing up to the issues that developed because of the failure in their operation with a simple training exercise. In fact, they literally went into Twilight Zone La La Land. We're talking the SRT. That's the supposed cream-dota cream of the Michigan State Police. And needless to say, they became vindictive with the training personnel, the training volunteers, which were, again, like I said, basically you're a stunt dummy slash a meat puppet. They went crazy. They wanted you to think, good, they killed you standing right there. And again, I told you so. We warned people about this. Some people listened, others not so much. And then they got to experience firsthand crazy town. The rest is history, so to speak. So, no way in hell, don't even think about it. One of the problems, like I said, is how they act and this is simply a training environment. But if they fail, the individuals themselves become quite sociopathic with regard to their response to the people that they're working with. Yes, that was a sociopathia involved. Yes, that was a craziness. And again, Tom, I know you're just reading it. I know you're not even thinking about the idea of participating, right? Oh, you know me, I don't think so. I'm laughing every time I see that, I'm thinking, yeah, mm-hmm, sure. Yeah, we know the end results. So again, this is why prior pepper planting prevents piss poor performance, but it is interesting that they have done this before with very, very negative results with regard to the training operations themselves. Oh, I'm sure they've done it in the past recently. But, you know, what's bad about this is that they're also vindictive to the participants. And what I mean vindictive is that they've been aggressive against them when they've been off of the training site, the training location, because things didn't go the way that they demanded slash planned, and the failure was completely in the camp of the SRT or the state troopers. It had nothing to do with the people who were participating. But these are they're like petulant spoiled children. It's the only way to describe it and they go they go crazy town So you don't want to be put into that situation. No, no, no, no Now, of course people will ignore what I've said and you know, everybody has it, you know, it's kind of like when dad tells you Don't touch the stove. It's hot. Don't touch the stove. It's hot. Oh I told you several times the stove was hot. You don't seem to want to listen. You only have to do that once and you will listen from that point forward. You will learn the lesson. You will, of course, embrace the knowledge after that. You might even pay attention when somebody warns you about something. But there is a need on occasion for someone to get their fingers burned on the stove before they realize that maybe we had some idea about how stoves work. get madrift so no way in hell. If anybody's even thinking the bad guys on the other side, they get all... I'm sure they'll find somebody, but we don't need it to be you as a victim. I don't want that to happen to you. So I cannot emphasize enough, stay away from that kind of activity. There's plenty to keep you busy without that kind of nonsense because it will only become a negative situation for you. And it will only progressively get worse. Not better. Thank you, Tom. Well, at least I know now that they're getting desperate. They're trying to do the PR routine too. Well, we'd like, we're trying to recruit you for, you know, cooperation with the population. What are you practicing on doing? Oh, that's right. Going after the population. Just because they gave you a little bit of a temporary job doesn't mean they don't look at you the exact same way they do the targets in the training exercise. Oops forgot about that one, right? No, probably not if you're thinking you understand what I'm talking about Anything else Tom anything else exciting jumping off up there in the northern part of the state the Great White North Nope, everything's kind of calm here. We had We had snow the last few days. They've been kind of calm It was pretty bright up here got a lot of things done just Just nobody died. I saw that and I had a shit share it with you guys. Because I'm still laughing about it. Like you said, it's probably going to be some idiot doing that, thinking, oh, we'll just do it. And then we'll hear about a lot of people either dying or getting injured really bad about it. Or if Patriots do it, oh, you're on this list here. We're just going to keep you. Well, at the very least, remember, like I said, if they have a failure in operation, they will never admit to it themselves. They will try to deflect it off into the, you know, to the, you know, to a second party and you don't have any authority there. So when mistakes are made, it's everybody's fault but theirs. And I can't emphasize enough that it's worse than it's ever been, the situation with regard to command operations, especially with the state police. You do not want to be in that, you don't want to put yourself in that situation. Just that simple. There's no reason for it. It's a risk you don't need to take and a condition that you don't need to be, a situation that we need to be part of. So again, emphasis added and repeat ad nauseam for a reason. We're going to keep you safe and keep you out of trouble. The best way to do that, don't have anything to do with the people who are already practicing to come after you, which is why they're having the training exercise. What are they practicing on doing? Going after Michiganders. Aren't you one of the many people they'd like to go after? You're a Michigander. Why, yes you are. Well, if you're here in the state of Michigan and you're probably hearing about this. So, you know, buyer beware. Do not purchase. It's just that simple. Anyway, we are all heck, we're almost headed to the bottom of the hour and this half hour is going quick. Another thing very quickly before we forget, and I mentioned this yesterday, I don't know what's left. I have not had a chance to check today. I've actually been on a dead run. When we get free food, we gotta get free food. And today was a free food day. So we filled the truck up and then started getting stuff dropped off because it was a good thing it was cold. So nothing's gonna spoil. Okay, let's put it that way. But we still want to make sure that it was distributed so it's in the hands of the people that can use it and we'll take advantage of it and can properly process everything, put it where it belongs. But in the meantime from the logistics end yesterday Colmans.com they've got a warehouse clearance sale. There's a ton of other stuff in there listed. I didn't even touch and I shouldn't have to. These are just high points and if you're listening you want to try and take advantage of this especially if you have numbers of people that are either at foot wear or if you're looking at some of the camouflage clothing, you know, slash cold weather gear that we've been talking about that should be highly motivated to acquire. And this is at Coleman's dot com. Coleman. C-O-L-E-M-A-N-S dot com. British government security boots. These are the Chukka boots. They're a little higher than your ankle. They're not a full eight inch high, you know, sidewall. Anyway, they're 17.95 a pair, brand new in the box, and they have big sizes and wide sizes. Okay, that's the important thing here. So if you're a guy that has to kick two cows in the rear end to make a pair of boots, you might want to go over to Colman's.com. Now that's the first one. The second one, the second boot item is Italian made safety work boots. Once again, these are in the Chukka cut, the regular, well actually also you just call them mechanics cut. And they're $24.95. Now, these are both in bigger sizes, they do have some medium sizes, and they do come with some wide sizes available. So you want to go check these out. $24.95 a pair for those boots with steel toe. In fact, they had them without, but apparently they sold the without steel toe out already. And these are well made, brand new in the box. You'll see the picture. Go take a look at the imagery. It'll give you an idea exactly what it is they're offering. and that's British government security boots 1795 and again in good big and wide sizes Italian made safety work boots 2495 and same. Next, it's the third item, I'm not going to waste too much time on this, I'm not wasting it but I'm not going to dwell. Check military M95 field parkers grade 3. Now grade one is very nice to excellent condition grade two is field grade used but complete field grade three is Parts may have a ding or something might have a have to need a repair But for eight dollars and ninety-five cents, these are size large size extra large size 2x and they also have size 3x Now they're already out of Forex, but they did have some. These are in the Woodland, the Czechoslovakian Woodland Lightning Bolt Pattern. And it is an excellent, they're excellent parkas, they're great coats. And what I recommend is if you're going to be using stuff for tactical training, everybody goes, why would you get grade three? Well, because it's already beat, I'm not going to worry about it, although it's good equipment, it's well built. Might have a zipper, a pole that's missing, could have a snap that's issues. Might have a tear, might have a gack somewhere. Not a big deal for a fix up. This is why I told you before about getting those quick patch iron camouflage patches that the US military made. They've been available on and off for the last, well, what, 10 years. They're cheap, cheap, cheap. Put them on the inside. After you line everything up, the ironmen place, you're done. They work really well. They make them, they actually use them for everything from Alice packs to clothing to whatever it is you need to repair. But that's a sidebar. As it is, this is a Czech military M95 field parka. They're $8.95. It's grade three. That's what you want, a grade three. And it's a good deal. I already picked up a number. I think I might make a second order because I was talking to some other people, you know, this morning. And we'll see, but whoever gets there first gets there first. Normally, I wouldn't even mention this on the air, but it looks like they have at least a reasonable quantity and they have big sizes, and I'd rather that we get them than somebody else. So let's see if we can snag the complete order and pull it over into our inventory. Now, there are good pictures, so you'll see what I'm talking about. Somebody is already asking again. Hold on here. As a matter of fact, yes, there are other items in that camouflage. Hats are available, but there are other sources. This particular camouflage, the check military M95 field coats in the check woodland lightning pattern camel, this was right after the end of the Cold War. The Czechoslovakians issued this equipment out in a very narrow window and then they went to another pattern. Now it's not a bad camouflage. In fact, I'm sure that it was probably being planned as part of the next phase before the Cold War ended because it was already developed when everybody shifted priorities. However, it's been out there in, like I said, pieces. Some of it's here, some of it's there. Pants are the hardest thing to get, as is always the case. But hats, web gear, mag pouches, canteen covers, knife sheaths, in this camouflage pattern are out but there's a little bit here, there's a few pieces there. You have to cherry pick all over the place if you want to use that system specifically. But these are decent buy for a good coat in a big size and the way to treat them is if you got a very least for your 510 program buy a handful of these you know 6, 5, 10 whatever you want to do. Keep them on hand and somebody shows up and they don't have anything, remember if they're a size extra large, you give them a size 2x and you put it over the very fine coat or clothing they might already have because the coat's good but it's just in the wrong colors. It's not practical but you basically use these coats as a battle tunic to cover everything, a camouflage tunic. Material gauge and weight is about the equivalent to the M65 field jacket. They're probably a little heavier in terms of the density of the cloth, probably in a herringbone twill, which we've seen for years, typical Warsaw pack, and very well built for what they are. So these are definitely all three items are worthwhile. It's colmans.com, colmans.com, colmans.com. and we're at the bottom you're listening to Liberty Tree Radio dot 4 mg dot com Liberty Tree Radio dot o r g and Again at 8 o'clock. We're on 6.1 6 0 regular shortwave WBCQ the planet and that is from Monday through Friday 8 to 9 pm while we're still of course on all of our other rebroadcasting channels to include libertytreeradio.4mg.com and libertytreeradio.org. We are also up on BitShoot as another archival point and I want to say thank you to our friends that are posting the intel report. on X and on Bitchute and I believe we're on about two or three other social media channels right now where you guys have been doing all the work. That's not us. So thank you if you could keep it up. It's a great way for the program to spread and for more people to find out where to go, just go, you know, start perusing and searching. Interestingly enough, you might search under either Mark Kornke, K-O-E-R-N-K-E. or under militia and then see what pops up and that will lead you to the wherever the postings are and go from there. Also don't forget that we've got a page over on Wimpkin.com and post over there on a regular basis so again if you want to say hi you can join Wimpkin and then get in there and we'll be friends. Let's put it that way. We'll be friends. Anyway, we're at the bottom. You know what? It's... Go ahead, call or jump in there. Who do we have? Oh, it's Brent in Las Vegas, and I sent you an email yesterday. It was about 2.55 over here, 5.55 your time. And it's on the Army-Navy Military Expo, or the A&M-E Trade Show. and it's going to be held next week from the 15th Wednesday to Friday the 17th at the West Gate Hotel here in Vegas. Excellent. In fact, you know what, uh, Swiss surplus asked me if I was going to be there, which is like, well guys, it's on the other side of the country, so... Probably not, but if you're nearby guys and that's an excellent opportunity to take a look at all the things that we actually discuss on the air because these are the companies that move all of that material around the rented revolution companies and other jobbers. So it's a pretty cool expo. You've been there before, right? Oh, for the past eight years, twice a year. And again, they used to have, I don't know if they're still doing it, but they used to have Atlantic City. In between the West Coast and they used to have an East Coast and it used to be at Atlantic City in the, you know, like equidistance and date, you know, to the other two. So there'd be two on the East and two on the West. Are they still listening in Atlantic City? No, I have never gotten a notification for them. Okay, well that means they probably dropped it because... The East Coast is not as friendly. It's not as tax friendly, let's put it that way. I've noticed the gravitation to the west and to the middle part of the country for a lot of the marshal oriented industry components that do surplus, be it weapons or gear. It doesn't mean there aren't companies around the East Coast. There are, but they've thinned out quite a bit. So that's probably the reason for that. So anything exciting happening there? What's been in the news about the, uh, Tesla's, you know, Kamikaze truck? Anything there that you've seen jump out? I haven't kept track of the regular news here. I mainly get my news off of RBN or you guys. Excellent. Well, appreciate that. So I'm not over here. That is curious. Well, what else is that? Well, first of all, we always ask, because you're in another part of the country, what's the weather been like out there in Vegas for the last week or two? Well, the past couple of days it's been really windy. It looks like the palm fronds are about to come off of the palm trees, you know, in the background. And I think that's, you know, fueling those fires over in California also. But I don't see any smoky air or anything. It's mainly been around in the 60s and 70s and the past couple of days been like the mid-50s. Excellent. Well, comfortable enough. You're warmer than we are. But it feels cold. Yeah, well, yeah, I know how it is like when I was stationed down in Arizona we came from Fort Leonard wood and we'd had that record winter and so we're all bundled up and ready for you know, the Arctic Circle and we get down there and it's 70 degrees and we don't know what to do but everybody's wearing Parkas and it's like truck drivers wearing a parka and we're taking clothing off because it's 70 degrees and it's like Well, of course, it means it's like almost a 100 degree shift. We actually dropped down to almost 40 degrees below. We had some spikes that came out of Canada that year and everything froze. But what's fascinating is you go from there to 70 degrees and everybody locally is like, my god, it's cold. That's because you got that thin Arizona blood. I assume it's probably the same way in Nevada, right? It's like, oh. Yeah. It's the same deal. Well, hopefully, well if it stays away it is your good. One of the things, see that's one of the things like you said, the winds, there's no discussion about any of the wind and Pacific drift cycles. Have you noticed that? In other words, oh my god, we have these fires, I don't know why it's happening. But, yeah, what happened, I mean it used to be we even had names for all of these. And it's rather fascinating that they want everybody to be on the end of their fingernails hanging from a cliff and in crisis constantly. And it doesn't help that the people who are fighting the fires don't have a clue anymore because they've gone so far around the corner from doing the job they're supposed to that nobody knows. They just don't have any idea. And they don't care. I think I did probably get paid this. Go ahead. In essence, I don't know nothing about birthing no baby, Miss Charlotte. Exactly. Fires? Do you want people to fight the fires? I'm standing here watching this and getting paid a lot not to get burned. So I don't think that's gonna change. And another interesting thing is they don't talk about this. Like, wow, historically where they're having those fires in California is where as long as I've been alive, they've always had those fires in California. Now, here's the thing. Did they do what I know they did? Did they let them build where for years they said no we don't build here because when we get wet we have mudslides and when it gets dry we have fires so we don't build here and you know what they did oh you're just stupid we had to have a fire last year you need to give us permits to do this which of course in California permits for everything anyway So I guarantee because they're talking about, oh my god, all the houses they're losing. Well, in the past they wouldn't have lost them because they never built them there because everybody had brains enough to know not to do that. Let's keep that in mind too. Right. Right. Right. They should have been caught up on this. Right. Yeah. Well, that's another thing that seems interesting to me because this is another piece of real estate where maybe they do want to drive people out. Remember they spent all that money on that energy technology when they were in that corridor where they wanted to put the train that they still will never complete but that they were preparing to build. And remember, if you go right down that corridor, when we had all those fires over the last several years, it's just literally like they marched right down the line. So you're absolutely right about that. And again, well, I think things are starting to crack with people saying, you know, figuring out what's going on with the regime coming in because We just took a major shift. Every aspect of what was being talked about had to do with securing the core. And now all of a sudden it's we're taking other people's land, other countries. And it's like, well, that wasn't in the conversation anywhere, was it guys? It was all of a sudden it's like, we want to take Canada. It's like, why do I want five? It'd be like adding five Californias to the United States. with people who would be voting against anything and everything that has to do with freedom while they would be busy expecting to be on the dole and on welfare immediately and they'd be figuring that they're getting you know sucking the big sugar would you know with a bit they were part of America so no I can't see adding Canada to the United States but all this stuff that's being talked about right now is right out of the third phase of NAFTA and GATT and it's Donald Trump who brought it up. And all the stuff that we put the kibosh to and stopped is all the garbage and all of a sudden a matter of what, four or five days, all of a sudden is now in the conversation. Maybe six, we'll say at the most six. But with all these announcements, just like a drum roll, it's NAFTA, NAFTA, NAFTA, NAFTA, get, get, get, get NAFTA. And now, and of course then they got people, they got all their mouthpieces chanting. Like, well, we're going to take Canada, and we're going to take Greenland. Yeah, we got to take Greenland. I want Greenland. What do you mean you want Greenland? You know, where the hell did that come from? But their logic is that they play the goyim, play the rubes, herd them like cattle, or lemmings over the cliff, and everybody's just supposed to go to brain fart and just chant, chant, chant until they roll over the cliff and die, die, die. And we aren't part of that. Just that simple. I remember all this stuff. They figured that they wait long enough. They could just package it a little differently, but baffle everybody with bullshit and plug all this stuff right back in. That's what I see. So, we gotta beware. Anything else, sir? I didn't mean to over talk you there. Anything before we move on to other things? No, I'm good. Thanks. Okay. Well, yeah, thanks for the update. You know what? I, because again, I heard about it, but I didn't have the dates. So, the Army Navy, it's the wholesalers, basically guys, this is where all the tradesmen, the wholesalers, manufacturers show up and it's going to be out in Viva Las De Wages and it's the Army Navy Surplus, well, Army Navy, yeah, Surplus Association, there's another, the acronym's different, but you get the drift. And that's from the 15th to the 17th, so that'll be from the 15th, which is Wednesday, to the 17th, which is Friday. Very good. Okay, next on the list of things I figured I'd better touch on today again. Well, first of all, it is Weapons Wednesday. A lot of the deals that I pointed you guys towards before we went any farther were past all of the holiday sales now. Now, there are still, as always every week, going to be something that pops up. There's 52 weeks in the air, so there's going to be 52 different sales. But For instance, the pencil barrel upper receiver Bushmaster barreled air 15s for one that were 135 aren't back up to 134 back up to 145 a piece still a reasonable price. They still show that they have them in stock There have been a number of other inventories though that have rolled out that they're putting on discount So you got to go through the usual suspects and look to see what's presently in the bargain category. It's kind of like this whole thing with the clothing we're just talking about. This is a separate issue. They're clearing out the warehouse. With Coleman's, CDNN Sports has some phenomenal deals still on upper receivers. And again, we had this conversation more than a few times because I've brought up the pencil barrels and I'm sure there's all kinds of people screaming the traditional mantra about the heavier barrel rifles. The reason that the lightweight barrels is what I'm recommending is simply be... whoop, oh that's me. It'll loop, loop, extra, extra. But anyway, I'm very familiar, in fact, many of the people are talking, you know, like over-shattering the conversation by saying, well, the pencil barrels are bad. Guys, I was around when they did all of the slow-mo videos and showed you how barrels ripple. Okay, it was a big deal when the high-res digital imagery was put together to show you and everybody was like surprised. It's like my god, do the barrels move that much? Well, if you were firing an automatic weapon and you got to remember that this all comes from the military application with vast sustained fire. You ever see some of the rifle marksmanship of Vietnam like during the when they were in way and the guys jammed the magazine in Hit the bolt release and put the gun over their head like they're doing a pull-up and over the wall and just spray 20 rounds downrange with an AR M16A1 and then they pull it back down drop the mag insert another one repeat repeat repeat They weren't aiming. That's just random suppression fire. Well, it's hopefully suppression fire That sustained fire in automatic is going to tell on the barrel it's going to wear. And again, the barrels literally ripple. Even your heavier, more rigid barrels that are made for the Air 15, although they were re-engineered to deal with part of this, they actually still have a tendency to do the whippy-windle, as we would call it. when they're in operation. It's just lesser so the variant in terms of point of impact with automatic fire would be the cone of destruction will be smaller. However, very few of any of you, even with a good tricky finger, a quick twitchy finger, are going to wear out that weapon or significantly alter the performance of the rifle. Again, we're using a semi-automatic weapon Most of the people that I'm recommending this for, A, don't have an AR-15, so the idea was for the minimal cost to get in there, but also women, children, and older people. We're probably not going to be in combat all the time, and you're not going to be in sustained operations, but the idea behind this is that you're bringing the entire inventory of your personnel up to a particular level, your entire roster of personnel. bringing the inventory up to match the numbers in an AR-15. And remember, all you have to do if you don't like the AR-15 upper, I used to say you had to deal with this because it was the way to go, but man, I want a different barrel. Well, the beautiful thing about the AR-15 Lego rifle is all you do is pop two pins, pull that light weight upper off and put it on the rack, reach over to the other spot on the rack and pull out the heavy barrel 16 inch or the 20 inch or the 22 inch. or the 24 inch and congratulations your rifles completely different configuration. There's nothing that fixes you or locks you in with the AR-15 design in that respect. That's it. It's a, like we always used to say, it's a piece of junk but it's a neat piece of junk. It's the Mattel 7. It's just that the parts are in different places rather than one gun inside another gun inside another gun. It's not like the old toy. But if you wanted to change out or switch up or upgrade, maybe that's a term you want to use, then this gets you on the table. And I don't think people are hearing what I've been saying half the time. It's bizarre. Or when they walk away. So like I said, somebody else has got their ear and immediately there's this auto bad mouth that takes place. Most important is that we get as many people armed as possible. Most people when they start talking about, well, no, I need a higher quality this or a better that. Somebody told me I need a $200 as opposed to $100. Well, that's probably true, but how many people do you have outfit seven? Can you afford to outfit seven with the top of the line AR-15? No. Do you have the ability to, how many people can you afford to arm if you go by the criteria of I need the best the industry has? One, and the other, what, five or six people or second papers. The purpose behind me presenting these solutions is so that everybody gets to the table. If you have five, six, or seven people all aiming at that one bastard who's causing problems, one of you is probably gonna hit it. Now, you're probably not going to spray and pray. In fact, you need to be focusing on, you know, trigger control and discipline. And that's a very important aspect of everything that we're doing here is teaching proper weapons discipline. Also, combined arms team cooperation, combined team operational support from, you know, the whole group. We benefit quite dramatically. Everybody lays fire on a particular target. You move on to another one. But you have to have the weapons to do that. So that's one of the reasons that I've been promoting the sales items that we've seen. A lot of the stuff that I've brought forward, it doesn't stay at that price anyway. If you didn't like it when it was say $134, don't worry, it's back up and many of them are sold, the exact same upper is sold for up to $300 apiece. The exact same upper group or the exact same lower AR-15 complete. Go take a look. You can pay whatever price you want it for the exact same product because Different companies have purchased from different sources within their sphere. They believe the price is reasonable And the idea of how they actually determine the cost of their product But other people have made other deals or may actually be the source for all the rest that charge more I've seen this as a big problem for a long time now as I pointed out to somebody Yeah, even though I'm talking about these 16 inch pencil barrels and I wouldn't have any problem carrying them My personal preference in AR-15 is a rifle with a 20 inch barrel However, how many times have you heard me say the gladius of the day is the 16 inch standard AR-15 fill in the blank whatever weight barrel whatever configuration whatever barrel twist But 16 inches right now are the drug on the market the most affordable There are some shorter ones, but if you get into the shorter weapons, I will remind you that if anybody has any entanglements with law enforcement, they're lying bastards, and what they will do is they will lie about what you had on the rifle. You might have a short AR-15 receiver, and I'm going to keep it over there. I'm going to have a short barrel upper receiver. It's not on the gun. They'll even go so far as to take yours off, the one you have on the weapon, and put the short barrel on and lie their ass off that you had it on the gun in the first place. You don't think so? We've seen it before. Which is why I recommend don't do that. Don't buy them for now. If you do, here's what you need to do. Uncle Mark has said it a million times. Take that short barrel upper, which you probably will use very quickly in a conflict. Put it off over to the side completely away from you. Not on your property, not where anybody can find it, store it, make sure it's lubricated. Put it away out of sight, out of mind. You can even bury it. Cash it with other equipment. Time comes, dig it up. If you feel in your heart of hearts you need a 10 inch barrel AR-15 rifle, I don't think it's going to make any difference if you're in the middle of a conflict. Nobody's going to care after that. See how that works? It's like saying, you know, select select fire. At that point, select fire won't be relevant. Right now, staying within the law, we actually end up with a better performing firearm for our purposes. Number one, we don't have an endless supply of ammunition. Some automatic, accurate, some automatic fire is still your first best choice. If you need to use suppression fire, you just move the trigger finger a little faster and amazingly enough, the gun goes pew, pew, pew a lot faster. Now another thing are optics. There are some pretty good buys on optics right now and as a conversation here on Weapons Wednesday is thermal. Right now, Palmetto State Armory has a number of thermal devices because there is another generation coming in right now. So they're actually, they've got some very good prices on rifle, scope, thermal technology. You might want to go look to see what they're offering right now. Yes, there are variations in the price. The creep centers around about $1,000. Realistically though, if you're looking for thermal, you can spend a lot more. And to get on the table with a model that is serviceable enough, the Palmetto options, the ones that are available, are definitely within that parameter. The big thing is, again, that other companies are offering comparable products. If you want to take a look, it's easy to do a search. OpticsPlanet has got a wide selection of night vision and thermal, but I've noticed that that inventory has threaded out. It's thinned. China Sport may be not offering as much. Some of the other companies changing models, which is another thing that's happening. And again, because of the cost, the market isn't as strong as it would be in other areas. But it is still something that's useful and needs to be in the toolbox. So go over, take a look at Palmetto State Armory. Their deal of the day is, I think every other deal of the day, they have a thermal device, but they do have a deal, a general deals, the discount section, and I believe four or six. different thermal units are being offered. If they're not there, they've sold. In other words, if one's gone, there's only three left. The others are probably sold out. So check them out. They're definitely worthwhile. PalmettoStateArmory.com. PalmettoStateArmory.com. And they did have, I don't know if it's there right now, at almost six o'clock in the afternoon, but they did have the dagger PSA, Palmetto State Armory dagger concealment frame for $49.95 complete. That's Glock compatible. The Glock mags go right into it. Even though it's a shorter frame, I wouldn't care. I'll bet you the big Glock mags go into the little gun just fine because it's just how it works. So, if you're looking for a solution for less than $200, you can get a complete slide, barrel, all the upper assembly, and then you've got the lower assembly for $49. In fact, you may find the slides for if you were to piece it out, you probably could put it together for about $148 to $155 for the upper. Again, the barrels, if you're going to buy a Glock or a dagger, which the dagger takes a Glock barrel, Many companies are offering these barrels that have been coming in for about $39, $49, and about $55. I would buy a spare barrel. Seriously. Firing pin extractor, ejector, but I definitely would buy at least one spare barrel. For $49, $39 to $49, it doesn't need to be, we don't need all the bells and whistles imported, you know, with a compensator, built-in compensator slots or whatever. No, no, looking for a plain Jane basic barrel that'll match up with the upper, the slide, you know, and barrel assembly that you purchased to go on that $49 lower. And when you're done, you actually can keep that gun in service for a very, very, very, very long time. We're not just planning on going into the fight and you know, ending up, you know, losing two years down the road. Our plan is to maintain all of our equipment. Having a spare barrel, you may not need it, but maybe another person operating another gun does. Remember, we're thinking not just about ourselves, but also the long-term effects of having to fight in a conflict to defend our freedom and liberty on American soil. We need a deep supply system in place. It's just that simple. Anyway, we're almost to the top. You're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. A couple of places you can go for AR-15 Montana, AR-15.com, MontanaAR-15.com, DeltaTeamTactical.com, Delta Team Tactical, Palmetto State Armory, which I've already mentioned, PalmettoStateArmory.com. Bear Creek Arsenal dot com, Bear Creek Arsenal dot com, Aim Surplus dot com, Aim Surplus dot com. That's really fascinating. Okay, we should be hearing the music right now. We are at the top. Everybody out there, you're listening to Liberty Tree Radio. Also, don't forget magazines. As far as deals on mags, the big deals were a week ago. I'm sure something's going to come into the sale bracket, but you're going to have to search the system to find it. Mags are hovering at around $10 or more and staying there. So anything below $10, typically a good price. And there are still some of the steel mags, like the Set Me mags for $8 a piece at apexgunparts.com. Apex Gun Parts. Those are Set Me 556. Made by Colt as I recall because actually were back when their 556 guns came out they weren't making mags and They did have the m16 in service to a degree But they wanted their own rifle and they marketed accordingly and now you're seeing the kits overall so by the way at apex done parts calm for the 556 that God bless the Republic Death to the New World Order we shall prevail ladies and gentlemen the Empire's on the run And we're on a march. Both day and night. And I believe I said the 24th for that class coming up, but I was wrong, I believe. It is the 25th. And I will double check that, but I just wanted to correct that to be safe. The 25th. And that will be in the afternoon in the Hillsdale area. So we're going to be doing a number of different things. We will hopefully also have a representative from the township up north that drove the Chinese out. They will, they can shoot speakers. I hope they have two of them from there. They can give everybody an update, an image of what actually transpired and where we are right now. Go take a break. Grab a cup of coffee. Use the bathroom. We'll be back right here. We can hear the intel report coming up. It's weapons went down. Liberty Free Radio. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught. According to the state, you read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame, giving government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm and keep our country decent. Put men of God in jail, or a fellow countryman once prevailed. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters, as your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores, and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to be feared? Both sons of the Republic arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. Preserve our great Republican, each God given right. And pray to God, freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the mist for once he came, his words were true. We're not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now his parents trampled each god-given right. We only watched him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Kornke, one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, northeast, south, southwest, and north. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. We want to say hi to all our merchant operators out there. No matter what body of water you may be resting on, the fact that you are both listening and rebroadcasting, analog and digital makes all the difference in the world. Thank you. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies inside and outside of each United States, and it is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. We're going to be talking more about weapons in a minute. It is the No way, it's the 8th of January. Yes it is, it's the 8th. This month is starting to move. It is the 16th year of open, obvious and in your face, Fabian, socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with the K2025. Old Earth Calendar, give it all she's got, Captain. 125% And, in 2025, Battle for the Republic Book 2, the Winter War. Ooh, up in the land of the ice and snow where the hot springs flow and the cold winds blow. Valhalla, we are coming. Yeah! So anyway, it is, uh... Oh, it's a beautiful winter day outside. Actually, it's not really been snowing anything. It's been the typical gray. But I'm going to tell you something. I don't throw away things, as you can probably imagine, if I can get the last squeak out of them. And I have a handful of solar lighting, because I experiment when I see a new piece of solar lighting out there that's offered, usually I just put it in another package and market it to you. You can tell by looking at the lights and the circuitry usually and how they're configured. But I have a couple that are quite old, as a matter of fact. And they got damaged, but they will sit upright and they will collect enough sunlight to run for part of the day. I put these on the south side of the property, on the south side of the house. They're just separate from everything else. They're useful if they light, but I don't expect them to. Now let me tell you something. We've had whole sunshiny days and these poor old lights, there's three of them, and they're three different models. They're totally three different devices. One of them is just always tired. It's on its last legs. But the last two days with complete gray overcast, that light along with the other two have been beaming and run almost all night. What? Yeah. In other words, normally with a full sunny day and, you know, medium temperature, that particular light along with the others usually runs, I don't expect you to go past midnight. I'm up to one, two, three in the morning sometimes. on a regular basis. Then I'm inside and outside. So I do kind of pay attention to this, but the last couple of nights with no sunshine during the day, that light carried on all the way through to the wee hours of the morning. Now, that means that whatever's going on over top of that cloud cover, there was so much radiation slash light pouring through the cloud cover that it charged more significantly than four and five and six days earlier when we had a relatively clear day. No rain, no snow, just a nice perfect sunny day to get out there and work your ass off. And whatever was going on, it didn't receive the same charge. Just a heads up, things you gotta pay attention to your environment. You create conditions, usually also command them to a degree. And this, I think, is rather interesting. The solar activity, which like I said, all of the fan fill in the blank wind patterns for instance that they used to talk about, we've got a couple of big ones that come off of the Pacific, run along the southwestern part of the country and fan on at an angle, which is exactly how you're seeing the weather patterns right now. But they don't want you to think about that. They don't want it to have any history. They don't want it to have a title. They just want the nebulous crisis, or we're going to die doomed garbage. That's all they're putting out there. Because we've never seen this before. I'm waiting for them to do that. We've never seen it. Or they're hoping you'll say, I've never seen anything like this. If you've never seen anything like this, because you apparently were brain dead and not paying attention to your environment. And they count out the idea that a percentage of the population actually will be like that. Then they can develop the crisis management scenario. So heads up, but yes, this is part of the whole process with the wind and weather cycles that move across all of the North American continent and specifically at different times approach us from different angles across the planet. as I've told you many times. This time of year we've gotten it a couple times. We have the Arctic blast that comes down over Lake Superior hits the Upper Peninsula, buries the Upper Peninsula in feet of snow, which it's so often in common that you don't hear much of anything about it because it's every year. If you go to places that cyclically get 4 or 5, 6 feet of snow, yeah, they're in the news. Like Buffalo, I'm waiting for Buffalo. Has Buffalo gotten their pet on the head and their 6 foot snowfall, which they always do. They're in that unique location because they're on the St. Lawrence Seaway and off of the last lower two of the Great Lakes. That's why. So, but that's where that Arctic blast when it comes down and rolls over all of Michigan, it then turns and makes an exit stage east and goes right down the St. Lawrence. And that's Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, and the St. Lawrence Seaway. Buffalo is right there. So wait for the Buffalo Crisis. We've never seen this before, except we've seen it every year of my life for as long as I've been able to remember things. That's right. So anyway, case in point is that there is some extensive, we're on the higher end solar cycle. Now the good thing about this is that if you do have solar technology, you should be doing pretty good right now. And if you have storage systems, you should be again, keeping it on your equipment. Remember, you're supposed to monitor, you're the power company when you actually have solar technology and wind technology. You're supposed to manage it. So don't assume it's just going to keep running perfectly. Even with the power company, they have to constantly adjust their technology to provide a consistent AC current out to the population. And with you, well, it's just a tiny version of the same thing. Another thing on that note though is something that it's kind of funny we were laughing because there's this big sale on the sunscreen right now. It's like I've told you a million times you buy your winter stuff in the summer and the summer stuff in the winter. The coat that I have right now, the jacket that I'm wearing, which is kind of a fleece slash fuzzy duster outer tactical, it's in the real tree, I paid 50 cents for it during the middle of the summer and everybody's going, the last thing I want to think about is the coat, your part, a bunch of coats. I say yes and I'm buying them for pennies of the dollar. Every time I see an Odie Green or a Gray or an Earth Brown or a Coyote Brown or a camouflage coat, yeah, I buy it for 50 cents. I could wear a different coat each day for probably 30 days and still not wear the same coat each day. That's the whole idea. But of course I also don't plan on sharing. I plan on giving it out so I don't have to let you borrow mine because I'm going to be a gentleman. Instead, I can issue the equipment out as needed and I have what I need for my own personal use too. Works out just fine. Well now, sunscreen. That sounds weird, but then I was thinking about that when we were up in the Mount Rockies years ago in the 70s. You get up to that spot where it's summertime down in the lowlands and we were up on the side of the Rockies and the girls, my sister and her girlfriend who were with us, just had to put their bathing suits on and pose in the snowdrifts that were on the side of the mountain once we got to a certain point in the switchbacks. And I still have all those pictures. slide form. Remember slides? I did a lot of 35 millimeter slides. I really like that. That was a good medium. And it just made me think because, you know, not only that, they got sunburns. We're at higher elevation, less air to block the radiation coming in, and they got nose burns. So guess what? After that, when they were out and about, they had to break out that sunscreen. So if you think it's just for the middle of summer, it's not. But right now, that's the big, cheap item out there, all these summer bathing items and service items like that, sunscreen, et cetera. So take advantage of that. because it is going to be useful later on. It really doesn't outdate, especially since we've got summer not that far around the corner. At least a half away, less than half a year away. After all, it is January 8th. Well, this winter ain't going to last that long. And we'll be back into the real world of summertime. So pay attention, take advantage of those kinds of deals. It was 50 cents a container for what was a $10, you know, container of sunscreen. And so, heck yes, for 50 cents, we threw a few more on the shelf. Of course, we do also have cases we got for free. Like I said, guys, today was free stuff truck, fill truck day. And I had to make sure that we went out and delivered accordingly. Now, back to weapons. Space, plasma rifle, 40 watt range, Oozze, 9 minute guitar copy, and spousal shotgun. Well, only what we see on the shelf, buddy. We've been talking about anti-drone technology, number one, bird barrels. I don't need a shorter shotgun for hunting. It's like Red Dawn, cutting you. Okay, you've been shooting Russians and you put a print on each Russian that you can see and all your hits were perfect and then you cut the barrel down. That doesn't make any sense. Cutting the barrel down isn't giving you more energy or tightening up your pattern. If you've got shot load, you want to keep the pattern tight on the target so that every pellet counts. Now, it's a great thing about a shotgun is you do have a spread, so, well, at least you tagged him with something even if you were off a little bit because you were a little jerky. But we're talking now hunting dronatoids, you know, the drones. We're talking about the low to mid grade tactical. If it's bigger, we'll throw bigger, heavier weapons on it. But the stuff that you're seeing is all manageable with shoulder fired type weapons and or other devices that are man portable. So there are three tools that we need in the toolbox. Number one, the bird barrel length 12 gauge or 10 gauge shotguns, goose guns are optimal. That is optimal. That would be your first best choice. Any shotgun would be better than no shotgun. 20 gauge would work, 4 10s, but with each one you've got less charge. The smaller you go in terms of bore, the less pellet you have going through the air. And remember, the 10 gauge goose gun is designed to kill things. Well, you go take a look at the average size of a goose, and while it's in flight, and while it's at maximum range, if at all possible. That way you don't fill it full of lead and tear chunks out of it. You're trying to eat the bird later, right? So in this case, the 10 gauge, it's a mobile sewer pipe. It's a poor man's claymore, to be quite honest, because if you swing it down and point it down a hallway, every time you pull the trigger, how many number, you know, 22 caliber or 17 caliber BB pellets do you have in that gun? Ba-boom. Ba-boom. Ba-boom. But for air defense, it's a good mechanical solution. And again, bird length barrel, we don't want short barrels for this work. We are trying to keep the aggressor at the maximum range while we destroy it, just in case it has something that goes boom, that we might want not to hurt us while we're busy getting rid of it, right? Number two, and this will be a subject of the classes coming up here for the rest of this, the end of this month. And that will be radar cannons slash microwave cannons. Now that is purely a matter of what do you have that you can pull out of the garage or from the junk pile in the way of microwaves to be cannibalized. But there's a third one we haven't talked enough about, and that is high output lasers. Now, you know, are we talking about cutting the drone out of the sky? No, we're not. We're talking about damaging the drone. Now, most important to remember is you've seen this a million times. Well, the drone is like that bird's eye view because that's what it is. It's a mechanical bird. What do you think the quality of the camera technology on board these drones is? I think they spent the most money they possibly could. You think they've become so available because China has built inexpensive parts in mass that can be pressed into service to build the drones that they're now using? That's most likely. The one interesting thing is that there are many scientific and or higher output. Now they've actually started to restrict some of these. If this was 10 years ago, there is stuff out there with some of the kids that have been creative and with amplification that are making cutting lasers that will burn and do damage at distance. Now, we don't need to do that, but it would be nice if we had something that if you do have a source for industrial laser technology. Remember the drone can't outrun the speed of light. Am I going to cut parts off? Nope, that's not my plan. My plan is to completely destroy the optics. And remember, that laser is perfect for that particular mission. The other cool thing is that again, it's lightweight, relatively lightweight, power applied depends on, again, what are you willing to commit to? More energy available, means more energy downrange, more, you know, because of, again, a light, it's kind of like, again, a laser gun in this respect. But what you're going to be doing is damaging the optics, literally frying the optics. The only option that the operator would have is to hit the switch and try to pull the drone back on autopilot to its origin. Now sometimes that would be an advantage if you're trying to find the operator killing, right? Most important is that we're just making the equipment un-serviceable. Now is there laser technology out there that could do damage? Well, probably, but there's a reason that I would say probably. Many of the dronatoids, in order for them to operate, have to be very lightweight pieces of equipment. Very lightweight components. Some of these scientific lasers, as I've told you, or mazers, there are some phenomenal maser projects that are out there using, ganging four or six or eight emitters. and literally creating a visible spectrum light display while the emitter is operating. So you can actually track your beam. You don't have to actually have optics and try to observe at a distance. You physically can see the projection of the emitter so that you can guide it by observation. You don't necessarily need to have a sighting system. Now I would point out that for the microwave weapon, the IDEA, which we've already tested, it's an option, you could actually use a bore-sided laser, laser pointer, of the type you're using on your rifles to guide or to confirm targeting with a microwave cannon. You either line it up with literally what are kind of like iron sights or an iron tube targeting system, or you could use, if you're willing to take the time, and it wouldn't be that difficult, power up your microwave cannon and confirm point of impact and then line up your laser pointer system, your laser target, your laser target system, to work with the microwave cannon in the same way you would with a rifle. And for the same basic purpose, again, minimizing time to target, acquisition, you know, touch and fire, so to speak. Long as you know that the laser's on target, you see it splash, you're pulling the trigger at the same time on the energy output for the, you know, energy control for the microwave and down, she's down. Now everybody asks too, and I've had several questions on this, how long does it take for a microwave unit like this to be effective against a drone, almost instantly? First of all, there's very little of anything they can do to properly shield any of these drones that you're seeing. They have to keep them as lightweight as possible. Remember, no matter what kind of airframe you're talking about, I don't care if it's a drone, I don't care if it's a missile, I don't care if it's an aircraft of any kind, like a fixed-wing aircraft, multi-way, multi-engine fixed-wing aircraft. rotary wing aircraft, there is a weight, you know, there's basically horsepower, you know, there's lift capacity to weight of the aircraft. There's a balancing act there. There's only so much you can carry or lift with a particular amount of thrust available, lift available to accommodate the aircraft performance. So, understand that the more junk you add, heavier things get, the less efficient the performance of the thing. I don't care if it's a plane or a helicopter or a drone. It doesn't make any difference. These basic rules of physics apply, and weight is always a detriment. That's why I've been curious, I understand. We understand the potential of the different drones that are out there. And it's fascinating to me that yes, they do have... They're making them sound more impressive than they actually are. They're lethal. But if you start applying an efficient and an aggressive hunting system to the drones, you neutralize the value or diminish the value of the drone dramatically. Now, here's the problem with militaries. They're anal retentive control freaks. The governments that run, most of the countries are anal retentive control freaks. They don't want you to have any weapons if they could help it. They're grudgingly giving you a rifle. But I want you to think about something. What's the cost of a 12-gauge shotgun in this day and age? Your retail price. Let me point something out. I can go right now to 16 or 17 different companies randomly. We can probably go right up on the screen. And we could find a $110 or $100 12-gauge bird length barrel Turkish shotgun available over the counter right now. If they're charging you, now I'm not helping to wrap your brain around war type materials, if it costs you at the retail level $110, you do understand that the actual selling price, well from the jobber to the retail, you're probably looking at, oh, two thirds the price that you pay. But from the manufacturer to the wholesaler, Cut that price in half. At least. What? If they're offering you that shotgun for $110, the market price from the manufacturer for that shotgun is probably as low as $32 to $35. That's what it would cost the government if they needed to provide a shotgun to every man in the field. Wouldn't you do that? If you have a specific threat, Wouldn't you provide an inexpensive 12 gauge to everybody? And so everyone's hunting the, what is the present scourge, the bracket, ha ha ha scourge of the battlefield? Wouldn't you be giving everybody a 12 gauge? Now besides you might use it for, you know, vertically or for horizontal combat. Don't either still use it for a three-dimensional air defense. No matter what, every weapon you got is gonna go boom, gonna put a bullet down range, it'll get used. And the 12 gauge is nothing to sneeze at. So it would be another enhancement and since it's a relatively lightweight, simple design and you could make it a little lighter, you could go a plastic stock instead of a wooden. You could go a hollow-filled plastic stock to make them for many weapons. Shave the weight off a little bit, but not much. But you're talking about everybody being issued or a significant number of individuals being issued at about $30 to $40 to $50 a unit. A pump action, 12 gauge air defense shotgun. They're not doing that are they? Why? Well for the same reason that the Jews lie about gun control in Israel. Oh look they show these, they always show these B-witches, these Jewish prostitutes carrying rifles all over the place in Israel, but they don't tell you, oh those are military personnel. Those are, or cops, because they love, they've got the communists, you know, throw the women in there, give them, you know, an M16, or an Uzi, and show them dancing around, walking around, you know, fidgeting around, whatever. Fact is that Israel is by his communist and anal retentive as it is made sure that all their people's guns are locked up and you can only have 50 rounds of ammunition So you see how it works if you think it's bad for the civilians, don't you it's the same for the military They're terrified of the idea that you would be armed because if the governments continue to play police state and be abusive to the population and hateful to the population eventually the population will fear they want to shoot their ass out of there And so again, over and over and over again, and you don't think about the cost, I mean considering what would I rather have? Would I rather have a 12-gauge shotgun that the government had to spend, let's say they did spend $100 on it, they shouldn't, but let's say they spent $100 on that shotgun. I'd rather have an M16A2 that they paid $375 for than the piece of crap uh, SIG rifles that they're buying now which cost, what, $1600 a piece, up to $3200 a piece. Piss on that crap. Give me three different weapons. Give me the M16A2 or an M4 and give me that 12 gauge and a comparable amount of ammunition appropriate to the air defense role. And by the way, rather than spending that god-awful stupid amount of money on that crappy rifle where you're sending the money overseas to the Jewish mob so they can run over to their bankers in Haifa, how about instead Why don't you give me a 203 while you're at it and slap a 203 underneath the barrel of that M4, that M16A2. I'll carry that, wouldn't you? That's another weapon that, by the way, for air defense. If you've got grenadiers out there, guys, during Vietnam we didn't have initially the M203. Remember, the U.S. military had the M79 grenade launcher. One of the complaints is that the Grenadier was carrying this equivalent to a sawed-off shotgun and he was issued a .45, the Grenadier was issued a .45 ACP pistol to carry out his side for personal defense. Well, the argument was that that would be another weapon the operator might have to fiddle with and he might be right in the middle of opening the tube up and there's a threat in front of him. There's V.C. and there within 100 yards, maybe within 50 or 60 yards. Usually contact was fairly close. You know what the solution was for the M79 40mm round? You know they came up with a buckshot load for the 40mm grenade launcher. What? You're not supposed to think about that, but you do know that, right? They came up with a steel shot because it had it conformed to the Geneva Convention. But they came up with an anti-personnel round that you could load into your 40mm grenade launcher, you pull the trigger and it was like a big ass blunderbuss shotgun. Now... Since we know we've got this drone-a-toid threat, do you think maybe the government's cranking out the BB shot, steel shot, 40 millimeter rounds again? Wouldn't you? I know I would. Do you think they've either thought about it or made any effort to do it? What do you bet? Probably not. Why? Because they don't care about us. Because the inner lieutenant control freaks are busy stealing so much money out the back door of the DOD budget the troops aren't getting anywhere near what they probably should have. Now maybe they have done this. But let me point something out. Why doesn't every soldier have a grenade launcher underneath the main rifle? What do you think it costs to build an M203 grenade launcher? Do you know how chintzy and how cheap they actually are? Do you know what the government cost is on those? Now think about it, that's another device that gives you both indirect fire power, poom, and poom, down range. But if I needed more fire power to get rid of the drone threat, the more weapons I have with the ability to more efficiently engage and with a higher probability of hit, that's a shot shell load. Rather than trying to tatter, tatter, tatter with a machine gun and assault rifle, an automatic weapon, a belt-fed weapon with a small bullet and a repetitious wave of them behind, how about instead, just like hunting quail, geese or ducks, I put a patter-patter up there and I hit them every time. And if everybody has the ability to do that, the problem doesn't become a threat or a problem anymore. Because there's a term everybody contributes to the destruction of the objective. Well, wait a minute. That's not the Weezer-Weiner, the Stanley Weezer-Weinerbump BS that you hear from everybody about. The Tronicoids! To be quite honest, I know maybe they've resurrected this, maybe they haven't, but you know, there are bigger than 10 gauge shotgun rounds out there. And can you imagine if you built a projector, a gun, that its job is to be lightweight, rapid fire, shotgun pattern, but with a greater range, more shot, greater range than any of the shoulder fired guns, to create a second close quarter anti-drone air defense umbrella? Wouldn't you do that if you're worried about your troops? You try to save lives? And since they'd be so stupid cheap in this day and age with CNC and stampings and all the other ridiculous stuff, but you'll notice that they're not really, they're gonna tell you how terrible it is, and if you were to resist, and you're doomed, and there's nothing you can do. It's all, that's all baffling with bullshit propaganda. I just gave you several offerings on how to deal with the drones. By the way, if I wanted to build a heavier 12 gauge, the Navy already did this. I've told you about the, it's not the PAWS project, this was a naval boarding gun and what they did is they made a dual magazine side by side under the barrel tube feed system just like the ones that they came out here, remember the bullpups like Kel-Tec made one and there's another company made the other. Where they got that idea from is from the US Navy project from the 1960s. You know what they used for a shotgun shell case? They used a 50 caliber machine gun case cut at the shoulder. This created an all metal straight tube with a very aggressive extractor groove, obviously, casing, and what they did is loaded it as a shotgun shell. This allowed them to be able to accommodate, if need be, automatic fire with an all brass case, full jacket case, shotgun round. The base load of pellets was almost, well, was twice the capacity of a conventional 2 3 quarter inch or a 3 inch Magnum 12 gauge. increased range, greater velocity, and they could go to selective fire, though you didn't really want to do that, but they had the option with other weapons that they developed. Once they had that, the cartridge, they started looking at other weapons they could use it in. Well, wouldn't that be the perfect anti-drone air defense gun right now? Every time you hear that, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, anywhere from 60 to 80 depending on the charge, the load, 60 to 80 22 caliber pellets going down range at the same time. You've seen the drone of toys and how they operate. Would they be able to continue to operate in a situation where all of the individuals would be contributing in one form or another to the destruction of the drones? It would negate the value of the system, of the concept. And this is what happens in war. The defense procedures are always cheaper than the offensive weapon technology projected. What does it cost to build a force projection vehicle like a tank? How much does it cost for one shoulder-fired 84 millimeter recoilless round? Which was more economical. How many 84 millimeter or 90 millimeter or 72 millimeter rockets or recoilless rounds can I build for the price of that tank? Oh, God. Tens and tens of thousands. And for the price of only one, boom, boom, boom, boom. For the price of one round, I could knock out a four million dollar vehicle. You see the math? See how that works? Oh, you have to take a risk. By the way, the battlefield is dangerous and for people to go, oh, all this stuff, they could be shooting at you. Yep, that's why it's called the battlefield. And the fickle figure of fate is not nice to anyone. So you have to still be thinking, all the while you're using all of these other tools that are being provided in the toolbox, you're still taking a risk every time. Congratulations, that's why it's called the battlefield. the articulated butcher shop. Okay, get over that part before you go any farther. Well, it doesn't take you, so I'd have to... Yep, it's dangerous. You're telling me how they're going to hunt you with drones, and they're going to hunt you with this, they're going to hunt you with that. We need to be hunting them back, right? So we need to have the tools in the toolbox. That means we need to start being a lot more creative. There are some of this we can build off the shelf, some of them we don't have to. But the government isn't taking the drone of toy threat seriously, or again, let's not forget, The drone threat is allowed to go only as far as they need to for the moment. Neither side in the Ukraine war has deployed all of its assets with regard to electronic countermeasures and electronic active measures in the offensive mode, okay? Neither defense nor offense. They're holding them back until the big push when either side kicks it in and they all get into a big brawl. So understand that very quickly the whole dronatoid thing is going to disappear very, very quickly as the higher art sections of the electronic battlefield actually get turned on. Then the availability and the usefulness of those high tech pieces of technology diminishes radically. But they're not doing that now. And there's two reasons. Number one, they don't want to play that card. Number two, drones are a psychological weapon to be used against the general population as one of the many secret police and government tools to oppress the population mentally. That's its purpose. That's their purpose. That's why they're giving all of the air time and all of the propaganda time that you're seeing. It's why you saw the crap they're doing in New Jersey. It's why they've been doing it all over the place. They desperately try to get you back into the it's feudal to resist you will be a sort of voted Oh my god, we're gonna die We just have to surrender roll over in our back and let him kick us in the crotch. Please kick me some more Whereas instead once you start taking the attitude well, we got them just hard as they can hunt us We have the ability of the tools in the toolbox to do it. They're not gonna ban microwaves yet But I guarantee they are already trying to figure out how they can come up with some way to attack you for doing whatever. It doesn't make any difference. At a given point, you will also be at war against the globalists. So congratulations, you better get the tools in the toolbox where they're needed. The microwave technology is incredibly simple. When we talk about this being a class, I got to remind you, all you're going to do is change where the microwave is pointed. Instead of it being a box in your kitchen, You're going to take the components, we're going to remount the emitter so that it's actually being, it's actually projected, the signal is projected by the satellite dish that you have, these little gray satellite dishes that are all over the country now for free. I've got dozens and dozens of them I've picked up in the scrap yard or just on the side of the road or off buildings because people want them out. All we're going to do is center it, identify so we can properly... well again, the fixture is actually pretty straightforward. You're just drilling a hole in the dish. You're going to be doing nothing but taking advantage of the existing emitter frame. You're going to bolt that right to the dish. You also want to weatherize it because remember before, the microwave was being used inside in a clean, relatively dry environment. What you're going to do is turn it into an all-weather intercept technology and it's going to be a projector to damage or to destroy the onboard circuitry of any type of flying object that passes through its beam, through the emitter. Now the rest of the components need to be encapsulated and mounted and you also need a power source. Which is the other consideration? So which how are you going to provide power for the unit now on that note? There are three ways to acquire power for what is an EC powered? Microwave emitting system number one off the wall wall standard wall electricity these the wall lightning and an extension cord does everything you need to do number two is generators Okay, you can use a small pack generator When the guys mounted the larger 300 watt units in the back of pickup trucks to use for air defense weapons in the past in the 90s They chose quiet relatively reliable generators Honda was the big thing at the time Honda is still pretty popular out there It doesn't have to be and then the third option is actually going with either well, it's an overlap you can go with Number three or number four, capacitor banks and limited discharge of the weapon. And the other is an inverter using a power inverter, running off any type of vehicle. You have whatever quality of inverter you have determines how much power you have, how much juice you have that can go to whatever it is you try to power up. So you do have options in terms of energy. Mobile options are preferred. Now somebody asked, well is there a way to actually have battery pack power to a unit that is built off of an AC type system like this? Well sure, actually I just mentioned it. You can use a series of more sophisticated lithium batteries. I have, you know, take a pic, whatever you want to go with. nickel hydride, whatever, but larger storage capacity banks with an inverter. And then you're not constantly pressing the trigger, but instead you're going to be using the weapon in bursts. And remember that you have limited storage capacity with the mobile unit that you've made, which would be backpack mounted. So you have a backpack mounted battery unit with an inverter, which then hooks up to what is the MAN portable microwave emitting unit. We can make them smaller, but we really don't want to. We're trying to use off-the-shelf technology to create an affordable system so we can flood the system with the weapon's capability. Again, your defensive weapon system or your defensive procedure, the one that is cheaper when it comes to neutralizing the offensive threat. And the drone is an offensive threat. So your defensive activity, what you want to do is minimize cost to maximize the deployment of the system. We need more of them out there. Now combine that because you need a combined arms team. You're not going to just engage with microwaves. We've talked about lasers. In fact lasers I would have out there in force because at the very least you can confuse or disrupt the performance of the aircraft while you're finishing it off with a 10 gauge shotgun. or zeroing on the target while it's in distress mode with the microwave and still use a projectile weapon of whatever kind to finish off the object. One of the other things you want to do is destroy or neutralize the drone threat at the greatest distance possible because what's the reason everybody's worried about these drones? They're carrying ordnance. So needless to say, we want to reach farther out and destroy them. Now, one other thing about air defense, it's Weapons Wednesday. Guys, I've told you this a million times, listing posts, observation posts, but in this case, listing and collection technology. What does a drone sound like that you typically hear operating in your area? What's it sound like? And maybe quieter because as far as they're out. Right? Before we had radar, do you know how we tracked aircraft coming in on two American shores? You know what kind of systems we used? Anybody? You know what we used before we had radar? Thomas Alba Edison actually came up with a series of what were called listening ears. Now, this is a fascinating piece of low-tech meets high-tech technology. And if you look into both Alexander Graham Bell and Edison, both of them, which by the way, they were overlapping technologies they both had interest in, developed a series of audio listening horns. These were designed to as efficiently as possible collect sound virtually out to miles away from the objective collect point. They tried to make all this disappear because, well, after all, if you don't have high tech, you can't survive. Well, the low tech with, first, which is simply human collection technology using the human ear, and later enhancing these collectors with an electronic microphone pickup allowed for one operator to listen to multiple stations and multiple angles simultaneously and you could hear the mechanical object. Well, let's see, back in the day would it be? The sound of that Pratt & Whitney engine or the sound of that Mercedes engine or the sound of whatever it is that was powering that aircraft miles away. This gave you advance warning before the aircraft was within strike distance. audio collection. You ever hear of a wolf's tear? Now, I can take the same device, these same dishes, and actually mount a micro, a pin microphone. There's a number of different ones available. I'm looking at two right here right now. pickup mics, any number of different options. You can cannibalize stuff off of the recordable cassette machines if you wanted to do that. I hate doing that because I don't want to damage them, but if I had to use them I could. But using any kind of pickup mic, I can mount that into that dish and create a sound collection system. Now it's far less sophisticated than Mr. Edison's design, and we can build Mr. Edison's design in a micro scale up to a smaller scale. And in the process, you would be able to listen to 365 degrees. You'd have three, four different collectors. And out to probably more than a few miles, you would be able to identify any threat traffic taking place. Now, you'll also hear people talking, metal on metal devices, any kind of other sounds that are being transferred are going to be a wash in your pickup. But the good thing is, is it drones. Have a particular sound that's quite annoying and quite distinct. Am I right or am I wrong? It might be bigger me Because it's a bigger motor running each one of those little quadcopter engine, you know quadcopter blades But guess what? It's still basically the same good color chip in there Yeah, those Tex-Micks, yeah. Those Volkswagen-sized drones, they would make a hell of a racket. But what my call is about is I wanted to ask you about some of the microwave guns you were talking about. I would think that depending on the wattage or amps or whatever it is, what is the range of what you could get out of like something you would make out of a microwave oven? Well, in the testing we did in 1993 and 1994 when we were looking at helicopter threats, using a research facility near Kalamazoo, Michigan, we tested out to two miles. Now, now, let me point something out. Remember, we were using different configurations. The Amanor radar range has a 90 watt emitter. The average microwave that you have in your house right now, the smaller ones have about a 40 watt emitter, I think, 35, 40, 45 watt. The bigger machines, which to a degree some are still industrial, at least have a 60, 65 watt and still have in many cases, as an offshoot of the Amana radar range design. Remember that used to be the name of them, Amana radar range. still up to and including 90 watt emitters. Now the big thing here is properly fixturing, you know, stationing the emitter to match the potential of the dish. Okay, now we've experimented. Let me give an example of something here. We've used satellite dishes. We've used snow saucers. Remember snow saucers this time of year when you were a kid, they made on a plastic or they're made out of aluminum. Now they're not as efficient, but they're still a parabolic dish. Now, the present radar or microwave projectors that are being sold commercially for anti-drone, what they're using there are the high output air defense radars that are on the shoulder fired SAM missiles. If you look at the package, you'll recognize the fixture immediately if you look at them closely. I don't show you very many pictures of these. And they don't talk about it much. They tell you all about how dangerous the drones are and how futile it is to resist. But then these pieces of technology are out there and their shoulder are fired. They are backpack power mounted or they have a fairly extensive battery pack that's belt mounted because they need energy. But the idea is that a smaller dish, those dishes are about, what, maybe 10 inches in diameter? Not even that. 8 to 10 inches in diameter, but they're, again, it's a focused concentrated beam. The emitter that's used for the SAM-7 is one that I know they're using. And they're also using, I think, the emitter and tracker system for the stinger. because nothing's really changed with regard to, I mean they've got a little more sophisticated to get more in the smaller package because of the circuitry. But the basic, all they're doing there is taking an off-the-shelf system, enhancing it, giving it more power, ensuring that the beam is focused, which with microwave projectors they typically are. with the 90 watt emitter using a 3, well no there's two ways, forgive me, the one is using a straight 90 watt emitter, that would probably go to at least a mile. on larger object targets like helicopters which they were tested on by the way they were tested on in a real world situation let me help you understand this people well you think they work against the real thing? well we know they work against the real thing when the black helicopters were out there that they claimed didn't exist well they were all standard field aircraft and we know that the radar emitters work quite efficiently We watched them personally as they were used. In fact, like I said, my favorite was in Sarasota. The guys down there with the Florida militia brought in to one of the meetings. It was a massive event. We had 20,000 people at a time at each one of the sessions where I spoke. A massive events building. And outside, they had a bunch of different things. It was like an expo on top of everything else. Well, the Florida militia brought in one of the completed 300 watt microwave guns. And I guess the Fed and the regime thought they would be cute. So they had a black, painted black hawk show up at the end of the parking lot, way over at the end of the parking lot to the west. They nobody heard him come in they were obviously flying nap of the earth and while the guys were over on the edge of the parking lot which had about maybe I'd see 600 cars maybe 800 cars in that particular wing of that part of the parking lot The chopper came up over the trees and started hovering there and of course it was unmarked and it was you know Trying to be ominous. It was a blackhawk And they specifically were there to probably tease laugh slash titter-ha-ha. Well, everybody scrambled. It was like, you know, watching a World War II conflict, you know, movie of some kind. Because guys are scrambling, people are moving the equipment around, the truck moves out of the tree line, off from under the shade of the trees, they swing the dish around, the guy goes, you know, are you ready? Okay, hit it. And they fired and you see the Black Hawk, it sits there and it started to weeble wobble left and right. It was quite radical. And then they held back because they pulled back, you know, you didn't want to overcharge the system. So they fired and then they waited and they fired again. And the chopper, the guy, as soon as he started the second batch of weevil wobbles, he went straight down. Now I know why he went straight down, because no helicopter pilot wants to nose in or scut into anything, so they dropped straight down and he landed immediately because they didn't know what was going on. Now, why did that work in 1994? Well, the reason it worked in 1994 is as I've said many times, we know beyond a shadow of a doubt that only 20% of all of the air fleet of rotor-wing aircraft in the US military were protected against EMP or microwave weapons. Only 20% were shielded because when you add the shielding it increases the weight of the aircraft by more than 900 pounds. Now that wouldn't seem like much, but guys, these aircrafts are all limited in thrust and potential to fly. And the more weight you add, less, let's just say, the more sluggish and dog-like they become. So they were avoiding that because under most circumstances they weren't going to face a sophisticated aggressor with the ability to actually countermeasure the equipment that they were using. We perfected it at bargain basement price and it worked exactly as it was supposed to. I would say the range of that particular shop from one end of the, from the events building to the other end of the parking lot was about half a mile. Anyway, we've got that technical amount punched a little bit here. We've got Western Republic, Dan, we've got the New Lady, we've got the New Infariles on the one, and we're on the mark. So, stay in line. We'll be back in one hour. I'm who I am, and I'm who I am. So if you're listening live on the 7th or 8th, you can call in and participate tonight if you like. I am, I pulled off the road. I'm on the road right now and I figured I'd better pull off at this rest area before I get deep into Banjo Country because I may not get us have a signal here for the next hour and a half. So I figured I'd have to stop here. What do I mean by Banjo Country? Anybody know the reference? I am in Northern Georgia. Why is that Banjo Country? Because of... that's where the film Deliverance was filmed. So, I'm heading towards Gainesville off of Highway 71 of the 75. And I'm going to cut across... the GPS wanted to go all the way down to Atlanta and back up to Gainesville, which looked really stupid to me, so I'm going to cut across Banjo territory in order to get to Gainesville. Anyway, I got a few steps to take tomorrow, Gainesville, then near Louisville, then Indianapolis. I'm on the way to an Indianapolis Gun Show this weekend, probably the 9th, 10th, 11th, something like that. Indianapolis, Indiana, the Indy 15 on a gun show. I'll be doing this weekend. Hardly do any other shows this recently. Ever since the pandemic, I've pretty much stopped almost all the shows. This is one of the few shows I've continued. Probably shouldn't. I've got plenty to do. I don't need to be doing shows. Got the website, which is temporarily down, by the way. Got a lot of things I should be doing rather than doing shows where I hardly make any money. Going to pick up a bunch of ammo cans on my way from when I leave Georgia here tomorrow. You'll be picking up a bunch of... it's about three pallets worth of ammo cans, I think. In Kentucky and then... I don't know, in Indianapolis. I've got... I don't sell them on the website because ammo cans aren't really a thing that you can really sell very easily online. Mail order. Because they're too heavy and so inexpensive. Cost you more to ship them than you would to buy them. So, it doesn't make any sense to try to sell them online. So I don't have them listed anywhere. So you can only get them from me at gun shows. And you can go anywhere in the country and buy an ammo can, so it's no big deal. You can go anywhere. Right now, from what I'm gathering, the ammo cans that I see, they're a little cheaper at Indy because there's so much competition. If you go to a bigger gun show, usually the prices are a little bit lower because you'll have a lot more people competing because you'll have, I think in Indianapolis, we've got about five or six people selling our ammo cans. And maybe you want the metal ones, maybe you want the plastic ones. I think most people want metal ones, but we're talking military ones here. As far as I know, I haven't seen any of the that the military has sold a surplus of being plastic. I'm not sure if those exist yet. One of the ammo cannon dealers tells me that they're changing some calibers on some of the weapons here, spoon, and who knows, they may be going to plastic ones in the future. In which case I would hunt down all the metal ones you can find because those will be disappearing if that happens. If and when does that happen? I don't know. I don't have any inside information about that and what caliber they're talking about. But I carry the 30 cal cans, which are actually smaller metal ones, and then the 50 caliber cans, which are the kind of medium sized ones. There's lots of sizes relating to 50 caliber. You got hall 50s, you got fat 50s, these are the nicknames. And you got a lot of other cans that are available. I also carry the 40 millimeter, those are the 40 millimeter grenade cans. Those are about three times the capacity of a 50 caliber can. So most of you are familiar with the 30 caliber and the 50 caliber. Probably everybody listening to my voice right now has one or two of them at all. And those are the ones I mainly sell. But I also have the 40 caliber, the 40 millimeter grenade cans. Some people like to use those for larger. If you fill them up with ammo, they get pretty heavy. I got mine actually filled up with coins. When I go to shows, they're all too heavy that way. I just drag them along on the floor and... But they hold thousands of coins perfectly the way I got them set up. It's part of my display copper coins. But anyway, they're rather big for ammo just because you can overload them. They get kind of heavy. In fact, the handles are bent on mine. They're the ones that I have the coins in because they're designed to carry that much weight. Ammo cans are, but a lot of people buy them for other things like maybe ammo cans for supplies for your boat, you know, like flares and such. or your trailer. People put them on the tongue of their trailer and throw chains in there or straps or whatever. They're waterproof. When you close them up, clamp them down, they just keep all the air and water. So they're handy for a lot of things like in a motor or a trailer or something like that. But there's a lot of uses for them. Sometimes I use them in the softwares. They're very strong too. You can stack them on top of each other and you can jump up and down on them. Put boards across them and build another floor with them if you want to do this. That's the less strong. You're not you're not gonna probably even Probably the 30 caliber under try this but I'm guessing that the you take four 30 caliber cans Put them under each tire under a pickup truck Pretty sure that will stand the way that pickup truck the four caliber the four 30 caliber cans one under each wheel probably will Take that way to that truck. So they're all strong Some people swear to them as a Faraday cage if you're worried about some kind of EMP. They do have a gasket though, so that may or may not be valid. Some sources I hear say you can't have a gasket, not a rubber gasket anyway, with a Faraday cage. Some say you need a metal gasket of some kind. And a lot of times if you're going to use, you're going to do an ammo can for that. Some people have used steel wool as the gasket. for an ammo can as a Faraday cage. An easier thing to do if you want a Faraday cage is take a big, from what I'm seeing, they still make them, metal garbage can, you know, with a metal lid and you put the lid on there, you put your stuff in there, I guess that's the best to wrap them in bubble wrap or something, you keep them from touching the sides of the can, whatever you're putting in there. And then So wrap them in bubble wrap or something or a beaten sawdust or something and whatever you want to put in there that keeps them insulated from the outside of the can. And then put your lid on it and wrap it with metal tape, aluminum tape. You can get that at your hardware stores or your HVAC supply stores or metal tape. And that, they say, is a very effective cheap faraday cage if you're interested in faraday cages. Anyway, I'm writing into an issue with this. It happened to me a few minutes before the show. I wasn't sure if his deal with the animal cans was going to go through because it looked like the guy I was buying from pulled a bait and switch on me. He said he had about 530 caliber cans and about 110, 50 caliber cans. Then all of a sudden he texted me here about an hour ago and said he was taking it like 300 and something, 50 caliber cans and only 16, 30 caliber cans. Now wait a minute, that changes the price structure dramatically. Wait a minute, how? You didn't tell me this. Plus, the 50 caliber cans were really, really, really good price, but the 50 caliber cans he was offering me were not a good price. So it almost seemed like a bit in Swachford where he's, I'm gonna hang on to these 30s at that price and give him these 50s higher price. That's what it seemed like. And I've been dealing with a guy for years, so I don't understand what happened there. He apologized because I told him I gave him an offer. It wasn't what he was offering me based on his new lot that he was trying to sell me. And he did accept it, so a deal is apparently stolen. But it sure looked like a bait and switch, even though I would not have expected that from him. You gotta watch out. When you do a business like that, the 50-caliber cans I was going to accept at the price he was asking for just so I could get the better deal with the 30-caliber cans, which was more of the deal. But the 50 caliber cans that the price I was going to pay him would have been a loss leader for me wouldn't making any money off him so But I was mostly interested in the 30 caliber can it turns out you don't have that many as an how can you? How can you mistakenly think you had about 500 less 30 caliber cans than you actually did and 250 more 50 calibers than you actually did that makes sense to me, but ever we may have worked out We'll see I'll know tomorrow if this that falls through completely Anyway, you don't need more of that stuff. Just doing business, you gotta have to worry about the stuff. Because especially when I'm doing big gun shows, camo cans are at a high rate of competition. So, if you go to a small gun show, more than likely somebody's still going to have ammo cans, but the prices will be a little bit higher. So you save a little bit of money by going to a bigger gun show. Well, you have the competition. Because, like when I go to Dragon Con, for instance, I'm the only one that has ammo cans, and rightly so. Because it's not a gun show so I can mark the price up a little bit plus I have to mark the price up because the Expense of the show is so much more expensive than a gun show I may pay fifty to a hundred dollars for a table at a gun show, but I'm paying six hundred and fifty dollars for for a smaller table at a tracking turn So I gotta mark up the prices of things when you do a big show like that as expensive I should say So anyway again business things you don't you know necessarily need to worry about I want to talk about some things here going on in the news. One of them that I heard on the, I saw his YouTube video and I said, is this right? Is Biden really pulling this crap before he leaves office? Of course he's pulling a lot of crap. We see him pulling a lot of crap. One of the things was, the meme was, the assertion was, the YouTube video I saw, which may or may not have been correct. That's why you needed to check it out. The assertion was Biden instituted a ban on natural gas instantaneous water heaters. Either whatever, whatever, whatever. That was the assertion of this video that I saw on YouTube. I wasn't familiar with this channel, so I wouldn't know if this was a truthful kind of channel or not. So, okay, I've got to check this out. So, I didn't check it out here until about a half an hour before the show. I'll find out what the true story is, because the story isn't quite that. We know that they're trying to do away with a lot of things that we that we like, like gas stoves and water heaters and things like this. They want us to go to things that are less efficient, more costly, and that ruin our grid even more. That's what they want to do. And so it made a little bit of sense that he might be trying to pull this, but that's not exactly what happened. There's some truth to it, but not exactly that. The truth of it is, the day after Christmas, he pulled this on a lot of new executive orders come out apparently, which Trump made just for his single, all of them, who knows. Trump can easily turn them all around. And he may, just like he did the last time with Obama stuff that got instituted. But there's a danger in that. I'm going to go over that here in a bit. Well, I think that's a danger in resending all this stuff. But what the bill actually says, what the executive order actually says basically is, I'm going by memory now here, by year 2029, all instantaneous gas water heaters have to meet a certain... those are the instant gas water heaters. I think most people probably are familiar with them now. They've been around for a good 20 some years, maybe 30 some years. They've been around for quite a while now. These are tankless, sometimes referred to as tankless water heaters. By 2049, all instantaneous or tankless gas water heaters need to be of the condensing type tankless water heaters. What that means is there's essentially two different types of tankless water heaters. One is a condensing and one is a non-condensing. From what I gathered, and I didn't really know the difference, because I've never had one of these folks, I've never had to install one either, even though I'm in construction. I've noticed some people that have had them, and some like them, some don't. They heat the water as it goes through the pipe. Cold water, when you turn on the faucet, instead of waiting, you know, half a gallon or a gallon later so you get hot water at the faucet. You get it a lot sooner because these tankless water heaters may or may not be closer to the faucet. It makes sense in some cases, but that don't necessarily make sense in other cases. They don't store any hot water. So that's the savings that you get, supposedly, from them. Well, if you want to save about another $112 a year, you will be switching from a non-condensing type instantaneous water heater to a condensing type water heat instantaneous water heater. I sometimes joke people when they say, well my hot water heater is broken. Why the hell you got a hot water heater? If the water is already hot, why are you heating it? Why you got to heat it? The little construction joke, HVAC joke. It's a water heater. It's only a hot water heater, but we got used to saying it. So that's people who don't know any better say hot water heater. So, the non-condensing type water heaters just heat it at one pass, sort of thing. Whereas the condensing type, apparently they have like a double chamber where it preheats the exhaust of the water heater instead of just going straight up the chimney, the exhaust preheats the cold water coming in so that now you have a little bit of a more heat removed from the exhaust as it goes out the chimney. And yes, there's still a chimney on these water heaters. I believe a lot of them are basically, and probably these will be the condensing type, unless there's the condensing type, I think have a PVC plastic pipe as a chimney. And mostly what you get out of there is warm, wet water. You might even be dripping. You've probably seen these with furnaces that are... than more modern type of gas furnaces. They have plastic chimneys. You need to go off the roof anymore. You can only go outside the house right where your furnace is. And exhaust is decided out. It looks like a dryer vent. It's out of your house especially in the wintertime when it's all the steam coming out. The condensation coming out of the plastic pipe and the water dripping down out of the pipe. It's like that. So basically what's going to happen is, it's going to cost you about, I've heard figures of about $250 more for this new type of instantaneous water heater versus the old style. So it's going to cost you about $250 more to buy the thing. But you're saying about $112 a year in energy savings with this type. But they aren't banning gas instantaneous water heaters. They're banning certain types. Okay? So it's not as bad as The meme that I initially saw on YouTube where somebody's producing a fear-mongering video for QuickMate is essentially what it probably was. So, a good thing or not? I don't know, but anyway, that's the truth of it. They're not banning instantaneous gas water heaters. Frankly, you might, if you do need a new water heater, if something's wrong with your water heater, and you want to change to an instantaneous one, the house that I'm designing right now that I want to live in myself, I plan on having just an electric instantaneous water heater right at the source. In other words, my kitchen and my bathroom will be back to back where just a small, by small, actually, let me check that, check that, an electric, a five-gallon electric water heater. Five-gallon, that's it. Five-gallon electric water heater is what I plan on this house that I'm designing to build right now. 5 gallon storage. In other words, no instantaneous part at all. Electric. Now why would anybody do that? Because electric is more expensive, right? But if any of you who live in a house know for certain, if you go turning on the hot water at whatever cost that you try and get water on it, you're wasting probably about half a gallon to a gallon of hot water before it actually gets hot. In other words, it's set cold in the pipes from between your water heater, and this would apply to instantaneous ones too. It's set and cooled down in your pipes between your water heater and your faucet to the tune of about a half a gallon to a gallon, depending how far away your faucet is. So you're wasting about a half a gallon of water. Let's just use half a gallon for a start as an example. You're wasting half a gallon of water that you paid to heat up. Because you paid up paid to heat it up when you shut off the faucet last time you saw water That water is getting cold that's sitting in the pipe now You can insulate the pipe and improve your performance a little bit so it doesn't take as long to get hot enough But it's still cooling down. You're still losing money, right? So why not have? Let's say if you have a bigger house You might be able to do this with two five gallon water heaters And of course it depends on your usage and the size of your family and so on You have teenage girls in your family. Yeah, you're probably stuck with a 30 to 50 something 50 gallon water heater or multiple tankless water heaters. But I know that when I, because I used to do this all the time when I would, like when I take a shower, I know for a fact I only use about two to three gallons most of water that's heated. In other words, cold, let's say the water is 100 degrees, if I want 100 degree water, then I'm showering it. Because I used to heat it up with the sun all the time. The water in a bag, you know, a black bag. I lit like that for a long time, where I heat the water up in the sun, and then I take a shower near the end of the day, when the water got warm enough. And this bag only held 3 gallons, and usually I'd only use around 2 gallons, to shower sufficiently, where I don't add any cold water. So anyway, I'm only using about 2-3 gallons of warm water, let's say, not even hot, to take a shower in. So if I have a 5 gallon water heater, very near the point of use, meaning under the kitchen sink or behind the wall where the shower is or the bathroom sink. If I have such a short plumbing run that I turn it on the water and I'm only losing a cup or two of water to get it to my source, I'm saving a lot of money there. I'm only storing five gallons and that five gallons will do me for two showers and then I can throw our shower and go around and go and do the dishes. Something of that nature. or to wash my hands or whatever. Five gallons will do me. And if I use a... and a lot of these small water heaters are 110 volt too, which helps greatly when you're using off-grid electricity because 110 volt electricity is more user-friendly and a renewable energy system than is 220. Because a lot of your electric... most of your electric water heaters, your bigger ones, are going to be 220 volt. Now, the recovery time will be slower with the 110 volt one, but I know my water usage and I can get by with that. I'm going to be saving a lot of money by doing it that way. Plus, I can preheat the water. I also have a lot of solar water heaters. In other words, instead of photovoltaics, electricity, I have a lot of panels. I have 10 panels, actually, I've got 20 of them, that heat water instead of making electricity. I've got both. So I can preheat the wall, the water coming into the house completely, then I can even store it in a larger tank and maybe not have to use that electric water heater at all. So, consider that you could probably put a small electric tankless recovery unit under each sink of your house, let's say you have one and a half baths, that would require three instantaneous water heaters. And you probably could save your money. You could put it right at the source, right at your safe. You could probably save a lot of money on your bills by doing it that way. And having only a small water heater. Storage. Some options, think about it. I'm just bringing, based on all that knowledge with the renewable energy of what I need to do for me, I live alone. So, it may not be the same thing for you obviously. Okay, nobody's calling in on that. How about some of the things going on in the news? I need to do another live video on YouTube so I can check the last live YouTube video I did if anybody watched it. It was about three weeks ago. The sound was bad for whatever reason. The first time I'd been able to use this laptop, the sound wasn't very good. So I need to test that. I'm going to be going on live at some point here in the near future to test an external microphone I have on this laptop to see how that works if it's any better. I do need to fix that because Things may start happening here once Trump's in his office and maybe not for the good unfortunately folks now I'm I was much happier to see Trump to get elected and then the Then Kamala Harris, so don't get me wrong. I'm not We got we got the not better choice of the two It's not an ideal choice, but we got the better choice of the two And I have a lot of criticism for him as well. I've already mentioned some of these criticisms, especially what he's going to be doing in Israel. Now, he claims he's going to stop the war in a day in Ukraine. That won't happen. He may be able to stop the war, but it won't be in a day. And the only way he's going to do that is if Ukraine loses because Ukraine's already lost, the Russians are going to walk away with the lands they've already stolen. Make no moans about it. No matter what Trump thinks he's going to do, He's delusional if he thinks he's going to walk away with a deal, the art of the deal, right? He thinks he's going to walk away with a deal where Ukraine gets their lands back and Russia leaves with a tail between their legs. Ain't going to happen. The only thing Trump can really do to end the war quickly, the only thing he can do is to stop all money and weapons going to Ukraine right now. Then everybody's going to have to go to the bargaining table. and come to a surrender basically to this war. Because that's what it's going to be in the end. The only other contention would be what happens with Ukraine and NATO because the plinken bum thinks Ukraine is still going to be fast-tracked into NATO. That ain't going to happen either. The Russians aren't going to stand for that at all. It's one of the main reasons this war started. Because they don't want to see NATO on their doorstep. And Ukraine being in NATO was a non-starter. It's not even going to be on the table. So what's going to happen, if Trump really thinks he's going to stop the war right away, is he stops all money and weapons going to Ukraine. You know all our troops are there first, by the way. And all our contractors and people that are still there in secret. Get them all out of there. All our advisors, get them all out of there. Because Ukraine is going to have to surrender the lands that Russia has already taken. That's what's going to happen. So it's going to make him look bad in the press because he thinks he's got the art of the deal and he thinks he's going to walk away with making a good sweet deal for Ukraine, but no, it's not going to be sweet at all. Because Ukraine has already lost his war. He has nothing to bargain with. He can make threats if he wants, but those would be empty threats against Russia because Russia can defend themselves, right? Russia isn't going to take kindly to threats. Now, the Biden administration made a huge mistake by not negotiating in good faith right from the beginning. They have not been to the bargain. The US and Russians have not been to the bargain table since this war started. Now what? They're just throwing accusations and insults across the airwaves. That's all that's been done. At least Trump's going to go and sit down and get somebody at the table across from him and start talking. At least that's what it sounds like he's going to do. He thinks he's going to make a deal, but it's nice. It's not an ideal that anybody's going to like. Because Russia has already got way the upper hand. Russian holds all the cards folks. Trump thinks he has a Trump card, he doesn't. I don't know why he thinks he's going to pull out his hat. Anyway, I'm confident that that will end soon. Maybe this month, maybe this year. But it's already ended, it's already stopped. It's been over with for more than a year. No matter what the mainstream press is telling you, the war in Ukraine has been over with for more than a year. They just haven't told you that. They're just pretending it's not by sending more weapons and saying, yeah, good job. We'll fight the Russians to the last Ukrainian. That's what we're doing. And the last Ukrainian is almost there. They don't have any more people. They don't have enough people to fill the shoes to be cannon fodder. Russia does. They've got plenty of guys. Ukraine doesn't. It's a losing game. Unless Trump is going to send boots on the ground, and that ain't going to happen. So that's over with. So that war, I have confidence that Trump will stop that war. But it will be on Russia's terms, essentially. It won't have anything to do with Donald Trump, other than agreeing with what Russia tells him is going to happen. And it won't involve NATO involved, Ukraine being involved with NATO. It ain't going to happen. On Israel. This is the big problem. This is why I need this. This is why we may be going on the air live. through YouTube at an instant's notice when things start happening when we get involved with Israel and Iran. Because here's what's going on. And I've covered this before. Nothing's really changed. There's been a monkey wrench thrown into it with this Syria thing. But it really still doesn't change what's happening. It's only increased attentions in the region. Because now with Syria collapsing, you've got Turkey moving in. Against the Kurds you've got Israel moving in stealing more land land that they illegally occupied to begin with now they're going farther than that. They've already now moved into lands four times greater than Gaza the Gaza Strip. Pass the ball on Heights Halfway to Damascus. They may even go all the way to Damascus. Well, this is all over with I think you can get away with it. And who's gonna stop them? No one. No one's stopping them. Israel's still doing the nasty crap they've been doing. All these decades. They took the Golden Heights in what, 67? Something like that. Illegally occupied it, according to the UN. And now they're... They've surpassed those borders. They've gone farther into Syria. Because all the chaos is here. And before they did it, you know what they did? Maybe they didn't mention it as the mainstream media. They took the Air Force and basically destroyed any little military... hardware that Syria had, they destroyed it all. All the ships, all the planes, all the tanks, they bombed the hell out of defenseless military hardware. Hardware that there was nobody to operate. So before they moved in, they made sure to cripple anything that could probably stop them, even if somebody wanted to. So they just walked in. And they may want us all the way to Damascus. After all, when you look at what Israel is really trying to do with all this, they want to get rid of all the Palestinians out of what Israel thinks is their land, even though it's not. They want to get rid of all the Palestinians in Gaza, all the Palestinians in the West Bank. Then they want to start expanding their borders into Egypt, so they can control the Suez Canal, into Jordan, all the way to the river. The Jordan River into Syria, which they're doing now in the Lebanon, which they tried to do, but were stopped by the... Hello? Who's there? Sorry, I'm talking. I can barely hear you. Whoever it is, try again. Somebody was trying to comment, and I don't hear them. I heard a little bumbling, but I didn't hear much beyond that. Anyway, if you try again later, if you want, you can get through. So, Donald Trump is closing all the way, and all his candidates. that he is going to be bringing in almost all of his cabinet, all the ones that are beat to have anything to do with foreign policy are all Zionists as well. Pro-Israel all the way. So we're going to be trouble here, folks, because this is not going to go away. Israel, and if I was on a mainstream channel, I'd be instantly called an anti-Semitic, but no. You won't hear me say, you've never heard me say anything anti-Semitic on this channel ever. Ever. Then you won't ever hear me say anything to an investment. I have no problem with Jews. Jews have been a part of our society forever. There are a part of societies all around the world. Forever. They're everywhere. Why would I be hateful towards a Jew? It's not even a race. It's a religion. I'm not even hateful towards Arabs, even though a lot of you think I should be. And that is a race. Of sorts. It could be a number of countries, but Arabs is a race. And I guess Islam, either. As long as I interfere with my rights, liberty or property, I have no problem with people being Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, Christian. I don't agree with all those religions, but they have the right to believe in what they want to believe. As long as they try to find a force on me where I'm required to follow the Sharia rule or whatever, where it infringes upon my rights, liberty or property, then I have no problem with any of these religions. I have no problem with any of these races either, including Arabs or Jews. So Jews are getting out of the race. If I had a problem with Israelis either, I got a problem with the Israeli government. Just like Russians, let's say, if you talk to a Russian civilian, they don't hate Americans. They probably should, but no, they don't. I don't hate Russians either, but Russian civilians probably hate what our government is doing. And I don't blame them because I hate what our government is doing as well. We're getting involved all over the world, places we shouldn't be. We have 750 military bases all over the world on foreign lands. They have no buildings being there that are sitting ducks or what's supposed to come. And we've meddled with the CIA. We've meddled through and just about every country imaginable into their foreign affairs and their business. Over-taken a lot of them, replaced their dictator, replaced their semi-functional dictator, the one that is not functional. with our own dictator and destroy their country. Made it worse than when we went in there. Not only just by war, just by the other nasty thing that tricks the CIA plays. You know, I heard this figure on the news the other day. One third of the world population of the world is in one way affected by US sanctions against various countries all around the world. One third of the world population. Yeah, I wonder why the world hates us. And gee, I wonder why there might be sleeper cells that really take place, like maybe what happened in Vegas or New Orleans. Maybe those have something to do with sleeper cell terrorist acts. Maybe we will start seeing some real terrorist acts in this country, because we've had open borders for the last four years. And rightfully so. Why does the world hate us? Because look what we've done. People around the world hate us for a reason. We can't mind their own business. And again, I'm not talking about the American people so much, but the American people have allowed this to happen. We've allowed our leaders, our so-called leaders, to do this all around the world. We've let them get away with it. And it doesn't look like it's going to change in regard to the Middle East with Donald Trump. In fact, it's going to get worse. It looks to me like it's going to get worse. Donald Trump thinks he's gonna... he's been... now he's been threatening Gazans or I should say more accurately, Hamas in Gaza. He's been... he's been threatening Hamas that all hell is gonna break loose if they don't give up the hostages. Been a lot of talk of hostages the last couple days because of Jimmy Carter and what happened during his presidency. Been around the way and got about the same day. Hello, somebody talking there? Hi Craig, it's Dave in the Thumb of Michigan here. You know, did you hear what the leader of Hamas said to Trump about that threat? He said something like, he can't give back to hostages because they're already in hell. Oh, okay, so he said we're back to the US and we're being held still. Okay, no I heard that. Is that a joke or is that an actual quote? Oh no, I heard that today on ABC radio. Oh, okay. Yeah, it must be true, right? Yeah, you've got to be, it's got three letters, it's got to be true. Exactly. ABC, CBS, CNN. So thanks. Yeah, so, and okay, what, all hell's going to break loose now, okay, what the hell's he going to do? We've already been... We haven't dropped the bonds. We've given the bonds to Israel, the 2,000-pound bonds being dropped all over. They've leveled just about every building in the damn country, in the Gaza Strip. I think they, I've heard a figure the other day, 70% of the buildings in Gaza have been literally destroyed, like leveled, rubble. The rest have been damaged. And Israel isn't stopping. They haven't stopped for more than a year now. They're continuing to drop bombs, and they begin to move. We're a friendly army. We tell you when we're going to bomb. They begin to move, and then they bomb their tents. So what is Donald Trump going to do? He's going to what? Just send them more bombs? They're going to bomb all the dead bodies? What is he going to do? Our cadet running chief has already done as much as he's going to put boots on the ground, there's nothing else he's really could possibly do. Sorry, I can tell. You think he's going to go and make a deal? to release the Hasis, what's he going to do? And it's a possibility, but it's not likely whatsoever. Because no matter what he does, it's going to be in Israel's favor. Not Hamas, or the Houthis, or Hezbollah, or the Syrians, or the Jordanans, or the Egyptians, or anybody. Lebanese, the Iranians. It's not going to be favorable to anybody in the Middle East. If he does actually come up with some kind of deal. Because they're not gonna accept it. So unless he's gonna... The only thing I can think of he could probably get away with it would make Hamas give them up the hostages and create some... a semi-peace, which won't happen, is to just give them trillions of dollars so they can rebuild. But Israel wants, so we're not gonna be doing that obviously. Because Israel wants them all gone. He wants them all dead or all gone. Whichever comes first. That's what Israel wants. No matter what the mainstream media is telling you, that's what they want, that's what they're doing. And they will not stop until it's accomplished. Or until we stop giving them money and weapons, that's what really needs to be happening. Israel would not exist without us, the United States of Israel. I had to go back in Washington. There's a video on YouTube, it's funny. It's not done really well. It's an AI video, but it's not great. It's not very convincing, but it's funny nonetheless. Remember the show a number of years back called Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? There's two good versions you want to check out. One where Biden is the guest, the one answering the questions, the contestant. And the very first question across the easy question is the United States of blank. Then you give them four choices, right? One is Israel, one is Bulgaria, one is America, one is Russia, whatever, whatever the choices are. And he uses all his lifelines to get to there, but he finally says, the United States of Israel. And this is, and he just goes, are you sure? That's your answer? Well, I'm sorry, you're wrong, sir. And in the end, Biden says, Are you sure? That's a good one to check out. Just enter in, who else really meant millionaire biting, and I'm sure it'll come up. Another one you ought to check out. There's one with Trump too. There's one with Trump as the contestant. And it's a little better as far as the AI part of it, where it looks more realistic. And it's not with Regis, it's with the other lady, where does somebody, I think her name was. Anyway. In front of the contestant and the very first question is like an impossible question Like it literally impossible where it's supposed to be like the easiest and he tries to he does the 50-50 The first first he called he calls his friend because it's a very scientific question Well, so we somebody talking Whatever you said I didn't hear you, it didn't hardly come through. So the first question is an extremely scientific question impossible for anybody to answer basically. So he calls a friend. His friend is Elon Musk. And he closes the question and he's got 20 seconds or whatever asked the question. And Elon Musk consults his AI or whatever. He's some cyber thing. He's consulting. And he says the answer is then he gets cut off. When he's got six seconds left on the clock And now jump those oh, wait a minute you took time off the clock you had more time. Nope sorry So otherwise the game is rigged against him So the whole point is the whole thing is rigged against him then you know, it's hefty hefty and it's never eliminating two answers they add two answers so that's got six choices instead of Instead of four instead of two Anyway, the whole thing is rigged against them. It's funny. Yeah, they check both of those out. You might you have a good laugh at both of those I think I gave away the punchline on both of them, I guess, but whatever. They're fun to watch. So anyway, the Israel thing, and the only one that's gonna stop, that could possibly stop Israel, since we're aiding and abetting them, they're genocide, is, the only one on the front line is Iran, because Israel wants to destroy Iran. Always has wanted to, for a long time anyway. Ever since the Shah, the fall of the Shah back in what, the 70s? When was that? Because Iran doesn't like what they, what Israel and they don't like what they're doing to the Palestinians. So the, the only, the only present enemy in, in the Middle East right now against Israel in their media sites is Iran. So Israel needs to strike up a war somehow between us and Iran. Because if they strike up a war, if Israel strikes a war Iran, Iran is going to send missiles back. They've got better missiles than Israel does. A lot better missiles than Israel does. Their iron dome is no match for the missiles that they can send in from Iran. And guess what? And I think on the 17th this happens also. Russia is entering in some sort of military arrangement to help protect Iran. Russia and China both. do not want to see Israel, do not want to see Iran fall. They have a lot of interests in keeping Iran going. They're not going to sit back and allow Israel to destroy Iran or meaning allowing us to sit back and destroy Iran. Because if Israel and Iran go to war, that means we're going to war with Iran because that's what we do. We defend Israel at all costs. Remember, Israel is not the 51st state. It's the first state. The United States of Israel. That's the way you need to start thinking about this. Things will make more sense to you if you start thinking about it in those terms. Notice I didn't say anything negative about any Jewish person on the planet. Because if you want to call me anti-Semite, you're going to have to find somewhere I said actually something negative against a Jew. And of course I did not. So, what we're going to see here now, Israel is... I'm sorry, Iran, I gotta keep them to be a country straight here, try to be accurate. Iran has been very, very, what's the right word? Very controlling in their response as to what Israel has been doing to them. They've been very, been holding back a lot more than they probably should have. They still haven't retaliated for the last thing that Israel tried to do when they sent hundreds of fighters in to try to bomb them and then had to retreat because they realized They were being targeted by types of radar. They had no idea existed in Iran and didn't know how to counter them They were able to jam them properly. So they retreated. That's really what happened I know the mainstream press tried to make it look like oh they retreated because they bombed the hell out of Iran and Iran had to Get back down and know that's not what happened. So with the aid of Russia Because some of these new weapons systems probably was given to Iran By Russia We're gonna find ourselves in a war with Russia another proxy war We didn't win the one in Ukraine. We're not gonna win this one either and the only way you're really gonna get rid of Iran You're gonna have to do the boots on the ground thing That's the only way you're gonna do it and who's gonna do that? The IDF is gonna do that. Don't think so Their whole their country's removed. They're not even on the border. No, you're gonna do it Your sons and maybe daughters through a conscription, a draft, has the ability to take our aircraft carriers within 20 minutes, I heard. Within minutes, our aircraft carriers could all be bye-bye, sitting in the bottom of the Red Sea or the Mediterranean, because of the technology they have that we can't surpass as well. This is something that is fairly conjecture type of stuff. from things that I've heard other people that know more than I do about it. Because I don't know enough about it. So I did talk at length with somebody who served aboard an aircraft carrier. And he said, yeah, these missiles that they have, if they were able to get them to detonate, they're designed to detonate below the ship. Not even hit the ship. Some type of a missile that can go under the water or some type of a torpedo that goes under the water and detonates under the ship. It breaks the back of that aircraft carrier, basically breaking in half and all the compartments just start flooding. Anyway, you break it in half and it's done for anyway. Even if it's done in the military in two parts, that's no longer an aircraft carrier for all intents and purposes. This technology is real based on what I've heard not only online and YouTube videos and such. Military channels who know more about this than I do. But also from somebody that has served aboard aircraft in a nuclear aircraft carrier, US aircraft carrier. So that's something that's real and China can take out all our aircraft carriers pretty quickly from what I've heard. So how, where's your invasion, where's your invasion of Iran then? Now you've got to get other ships to bring the troops into Iran. Because you're going to have to go, you're going to have to go, the boots on the ground, that's the only way you're going to do it. And Russia may sign in their boots on the ground too. And maybe Chinese. So this, Blind support for Israel, which Donald Trump is definitely shows signs of, unless he's trolling all of us, unless he's trolling the world, he's going to be in full support of anything Israel wants to do. Everything Israel wants to do. He's demonstrated that in his first four years in office, the Abrahams, of course, the moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, was a Christian, what's his name? A Christian or a son-in-law. This is he's already demonstrated his willingness to support in his first floor What makes you think his second floor is gonna be any worse? Any better? This is gonna get us deeper and deeper involved when Israel decides to make their move to get us some more. We're gonna be at war. Are we gonna sit back and do nothing? Donald Trump won't. He's the big man in town. He's the big guy in the block. What's he gonna do, nuke? Is he gonna nuke Iran? He's basically threatened to do that. Their nuclear facilities, their weapons research and so are beyond the reach of anything Israel can do and maybe beyond the reach of what we can do without bunker busters as far as deep underground. Don't know if things are going to take them out. Israel, I'm sorry, Iran is very close to developing a nuclear weapon if they wanted to. They may have already. Based on the threats they're getting from around the world, maybe they should have by now. And maybe they have. I don't know. I don't know the answer to that. Most of the whole body almost nobody does But what are you gonna do? We're gonna bomb them into the soul age We can't even stop the hootie. We've been bombing the hootie. So is Israel There's still got basically a block on the the manager of the on the Red Sea out of Yemen a little gang of rebels That can't even control their own country. Don't even have their own whole country in under their rule They're kicking our butt in the medit in the in the Red Sea Only letting by certain ships that they want to let by. It sounds like maybe they shot down one of our, what, F-16? What kind of airplane did they shoot down? It looks like. They claimed they did. We claimed it was friendly fire. I kind of intended to believe that, who'd be more than that press believe our own government at this point? Because everything they've been telling us is a lie about the war there, just like Israel. Anything Israel has been saying about the war over there has basically been a lie. Almost every single bit, some of it really a blatant lie. So the fog of war, you have to discount anything that either the US or Israel says about what's really happening over there. The war in line has started looking. And I'm going to refer again, because my time is almost up. Refer again, so if you want to learn more about this, find out where I'm coming from. There's a great channel on YouTube called Judging Freedom by Judge Andrew Napolitano. And he has really major guests that know their crap, a lot better than I do. regarding foreign policy especially, that's mostly what his channel is based on, US foreign policy. And it's not good. It doesn't look good for the US at all. By very competent guests such as Jeffrey Sachs, Professor Jeffrey Sachs, Colonel Douglas McGregor, Scott Ritter, and lots of others. You've got about a dozen guests that he has unfairly regularly on his channel. You're putting out several videos every day. They're all like a half an hour long, basically. Start listening to those videos. That's what we... If you want to learn more about this, because I'm not the expert in this, I'm relaying a lot of information I find from other sources, but that's the number one source that I'm finding is the source that you might want to check out if you're hating me for what I'm saying right now, because you don't like the truth. That's why you're hating me because you don't like you. You think we need to support Israel. That's why you're hating me if you're hating me right now. But we really shouldn't be supporting Israel. Israel would have... Israel would never have existed without us in the first place and they never would have continued this far without us. So how does that not make us the United States of Israel? Israel is going to get us... get us an ass whooping from all around the world because the whole world hates us now. Virtually. Two countries in the Europe, but they're desperate too. They're off starting to fall. Germany, France. None of those countries, if there's an actual war with NATO, NATO is nothing without the US. All those other countries would fall left and right. If NATO got involved in the Ukraine thing. So a little warning, prepare yourself. Get ready for the grid down. That's the number one thing you need to prepare for. Grid down. Grid down for a long time. That would be the prediction that I won't be able to say, told you so later, because there will be no radio show at that point. No internet either. If grid goes down. So, need to pretend for that. That's the number one thing you need to do is prepare for grid down. Don't worry about extra ammo. Don't worry about extra food and water. Worry about grid down first. That's your number one priority. Don't worry about it here, prepper. Well, I hear the music. Thanks everybody for listening. Until next time, this is Craig from Forbidden Knowledge. Thanks so long. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land is free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize and re-farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit... Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great Republican, each god given right. Pray to god and bright, as Iowoki vanished in the mist for once he came. His words were true, they are free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Evening Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Gornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories south, north, West and East. analog and digital. We are on a myriad of other communications technologies across the United States, inside and outside the United States, and it is Wednesday, it's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 8th of January, 16th year of open, obvious and in your face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K. 2024, old earth calendar. 2024, Battle for the Republic. Book 2, The Winter War. And we're on WBCQ, The Planet 6.160, regular shortwave. That's Monday through Friday. 6.16-0 Regular Shortwave. We take the time to break out your AM, FM and shortwave receivers. If you don't have one, buy one. I just picked up another one here. It got delivered two days ago. It's a little crank unit. One of those little, again, Hong Kong sport. It's actually picking up, which is rather interesting. It's not a real fancy piece of equipment. It does have lights, it has a charging system for other electronics, you know, plugs, and then it has a hand crank power system. Plus, it does have either capacitor or battery packs on board. I don't know which, I haven't opened it up in the back end, but it's an opicize of your hand. and little unit, little more, little better quality for the dial, nothing fancy, not digital, just a regular old mechanical, but it works and it's actually picking up signals. So we'll find out more as we go through the evening. I want to test it with other frequencies and see how it performs, how long it runs with the battery charger that it has or capacitor bank that it has. We'll see what happens. But anyway, there is technology out there. You go to Teemu, you can go to any number of different electronic sources, and needless to say, you can also do, well, you can find a lot of that stuff over at Facebook Marketplace. I know Farsbook is a bugger to deal with, and most people don't want to anymore. It's worthless for most subjects. But Facebook Marketplace, Been around a while and it is useful. It's one of the few reasons you actually use the enemy equipment to take advantage and build up more technology to fight against the enemy technology. And one of the places you can do it is Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Amazon, which of course doesn't offer used, offers all new, but there's a lot of neat stuff out there. So take the time, check it out. Anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday. Couple things, there are M77, Yugoslavian M77 magazines, 20 rounders, over at apexgunparts.com, five for $100. That's an excellent price. Guys, this is probably the cheapest we'll see them ever, and then they're gonna go up to crazy count. It's kinda like the Romanian dragon off counterpart mags. They were incredibly cheap. I told everybody to buy them. Now they're ridiculously priced. because they were surplus and they're even less available surplus now and the Cold War is way back behind us and because of that all that stuff has gone up in value with just how it works with surplus. You want to take advantage of that. More on that in a second with ammunition which I think is rather fascinating. Anyway, it's not fascinating but interesting because we already talked about it extensively. Ammunition is no different. ammunition doesn't get cheaper. There are little windows where there's a drop in price because of a flood of availability, but it doesn't last and the time has changed very quickly with regard to the inventory. So heads up on that. You can actually pay for most everything you collect if you're just patients. Just a little patient. So you're gonna be just a little anyway over apex Here's the question that I need to I'm working at it right now because we have so many people have so many cool weapons But if you have the Sega 308, do you remember those the Sega semi-automatic rifles in the 762 by 51 NATO or a 3-0, you know like slice real weight win Guys magazines were harder than hell for those now at the time when the Sega's came in There weren't any magazines other than if you could find Sega mags for those rifles. But they are an AK system. The M77 is an AK system. They are in .308, 760x51 NATO. So here's something you might want to do. If there's any possible way that you can acquire or borrow a magazine, one of these M77-308 magazines or 20 rounders, you might want to test it and see if it fits in your Sega 308 rifle. If it does, then there's your solution. Right now, five magazines for $100. Now, there isn't another rifle out there. It's like almost an Opaneum slash Chicken Peat now. But the Velma .308 squad rifles that came in as semi-automatic rifles back in the 80s. I don't know if many of them came in, but they are around, and we know because the Thunderbears has three of them. I haven't been able to get hold of it. If I could, I'm sure he'd just buy five of the mags for $100 out of policy because he invests like that so he can sell the mags later for a profit or whatever. But if you have either of those rifles, now the 760x51 NATO Belmese used a modified G3 mag that also had to be narrowed. You had to see it to understand. But what's interesting about this is that the 7.62x51 Niko M77 mag may also fit in that rifle and if it does, well spare mags for the Belmays are up around I think $160 a piece if you can find them and you can't so that $160, $180 price is not really realistic, it's more like an opinion. But if you have any of these rifles the sagas I think would be the most is not think it is the most common out there if you have a 308 Sega right now you want to look to see you want to find out real quick if those M77 mags would fit if you happen to have the Bell made in your Listening and you have a friend who has a lot of money already which you probably do too if you have that rifle Amazingly enough, that M77 magazine might snap right into your Velma rifle, also in .308. That means you'd be saving a whole button for a change. You'd have more than two magazines, because usually that's what everybody had for those rifles. You had one mag that came with a Velma and a spare, and that's it. And everybody would have to buy more, and there were a few places that had one or two mags, and when they were gone, there were no more. With the SAGAs, They weren't really readily available. In fact, remember, that's why the Sega's, because they didn't really jump off when they first came in, nobody realized, well, they didn't think about it. Those are AK, those are real Russian AKs. You can switch them out real quick to make them look purified like an AK. Most people just left them where they were if they were smart, because they were only $165 a piece. Now those Sega's aren't $165 anymore now, are they? No, they're not, they're goofy price. And most of them have been converted, switched over to looking more like a regular AK. So even if they have, magazines for that 308 model are a little harder to find. So you do the research, see if it makes sense, and remember, $10, $20 a mag, yeah, that's pretty reasonable for a magazine that's unique, to say the least. Unique is, you're just not gonna be a whole lot more out there. What's there is there. That's the thing about surplus. Bathtub is full. Somebody pulls a plug, bathtub starts to empty. And then it's gone. Then the price changes because now people market whatever it is they purchased. And there's this spiraling up in price and, you know, cost in general. So take advantage of it. That's apexgunparts.com. Five of the M77 mags for $100 and they're actual regular UGO military mags. So they'll do exactly what they're supposed to do. Yes, there are also kits. You can go to Apex. They have kits, but also CenterFireSystems.com. They have barrels, they have receivers, and they have kits. You can take that kit and put it back online as a 7.62x51 NATO AK. The receiver is what's crazy priced, about $490 to $500. Yeah, I know. But the kits are only $200 and some dollars. little under $300. Magazines, I told you, you know, five for $100. Barrels, about $68 to $90 a piece depending on which model you want to buy and where you want to buy it from. So that's an option. Not necessarily first thing. I can build an AR-15 for an AR, forgive me, an AR-10 slash AR-308 for less money right now. Yeah, I keep going back to that idea that if you're going to spend the money, here's an awfully nice rifle and it's an American made weapon and 760 by 51 NATO AR-10 in whatever variant and whatever the other nomenclature is. So I still like the AKH, domain mistake. And if you got these, that's why I brought this up first because it's something that needs to be taken care of. You need more mags for the weapons you've got. And maybe this is a solution. Next, over at Apex Gun Parts, hey, I was just talking about them. Apex is one of the companies that has bought into a big chunk of the Turkish and Greek 8mm Mauser ammunition. Now, I've talked about surplus many times, so let me help you to understand something. When you go to Apex, you're going to see a picture of a bunch of blue bandoliers that have 8mm Mauser in them. You see those blue bandoliers? Well, those blue bandoliers came in, obviously, packed crates that came from the arsenal in Turkey. The ammunition is in stripper clips in the bandoliers and it was 1,600 rounds. Now there were different size cases, but 1,600 rounds of that ammunition in stripper clips in bandoliers for $50 to $60 a case like that. What? Now this is a good way for me to show you about investing and how things work. When that ammunition was 1,600 rounds for $60, we'll go high end, you figure out what that is, cost-wise, well guess what? You right now, they're offering eight bandolier packages for about, now one bandolier, we're not talking a case of 1,600 rounds. One bandolier is basically the cost, $64 to $65, of what you paid for 1600 rounds several years ago. What? Yeah, go take a look. So in other words, you could break open one box. of 1600 rounds. Let's say that you bought a pallet. They're offering pallets of this ammunition. The Turkish is $7,085 or whatever. The Greek 8mm Mauser is $7,280. I'll go high rather than low. There's more of the Greek ammo per pallet than there is with the Turkish. But the fact is that one bandolier, you'll see that they list the bandolier separate. If you were to take one bandolier out of each of the cases that you opened up out of the ones you bought for $60 and sell it, you just paid for the other 1,520 rounds of ammunition that you kept. What? Yeah. And by the way, you could double your money by simply selling one additional bandolier. See about this what I've been talking about the relative, you know pay scale so to speak the payback and how Desirable it is. I will point out also that again that Turkish ammo is on bandoliers and on stripper It's in bandoliers, but on stripper clips So these old hook right to the top of the weapon you line them up with that Mauser that K98 or that M that Polish Mauser or Czech Mauser and then you just put your thumb up there and squish down and cut and then pick the stripper clip up and put it in your pocket because you don't throw them down anymore. They're too valuable and they're not really replaceable. Not easily. Not like they used to be. So you're getting a lot of benefit for a little money spent. Still, the price is reasonable, and that's over at Apex. Go take a look at what it is that's available. Do you see what I'm talking about? It's easy for you to go look. Let your fingers do the walking through the internet pages. Okay. Next, also again, in the ammunition category is over at classic firearms. I haven't mentioned them in a little bit. They have a couple of really good deals including some .40 caliber Smith and Wesson. If you have a .40 cal, a lot of people are carrying the Smith and Wesson M&Ps in .40. They are good guns. There's nothing wrong with them. I think they will pew-pew any time you need to. They work just fine. But you do need more ammunition to make them go pew-pew. So over at Classic Firearms, go check out their deals right now. I think they have some Laman and also It's another odd brand, it's one of those names that probably comes from out west and I think you're going to have to double check out of camp. Off the top of my head it's not Star. There's a couple new ones out there. Somebody has obviously loaded up a bunch of stuff maybe with Magtech and put their name on it. That's quite possible. In many cases though they put a name on the box and it still says Magtech on the case. Boxer Prime, non-corrosive, ball ammo. I recommend ball with your pistol simply because you don't know which pistol you're going to have to put the ammo in and if some weapon is finicky with certain specialized rounds, you're screwed. So ball ammunition is your baseline for everything. Also, yes, somebody's just reminding me. Thank you. Over at AIMSurplus.com, AIMSurplus.com, they got 25 ACP, 32 ACP, and 32 short and 32 long in PPU ammunition, best price in the country over at AIM surplus. They got 25 ACPN and they also got 32. If you have those caliber converters that we've talked about, you know, the chamber inserts that allow you to shoot 32 like in a 30 caliber, the 32 ammo, this is fresh, it's boxer prime, it's reloadable, save it. Always recover your brass and yes it's worth building a die and going with whatever projectile you can even if it's just lead or copper only then guess what you could do that with a 32 not a problem at all. So prior prep for planning prevents piss poor performance let's make sure that we can put that up and online. Next we're talking about the microwave weapon technology but I would also emphasize the laser technology. Remember that all of these, you know, nemacodes, hemorrhoids, and drugitoids operate with remote optics. Any high output industrial laser will destroy that camera system. Especially based upon the size of the camera system and its collector, its optical collector, as opposed to the bore size of many of the industrial lasers. So you're talking about flooding and frying. of the collector circuitry and the lens unit itself in some cases, depending on the quality, of the little RC toy slash, or even medium size, dronatoids out there. It would be a simple, but part of the combined arms team solution against drones. It doesn't cost hardly anything. Energy consumption is minimal for maximum end result. combining pellet firing slash projectiles, launching 12 gauge and 10 gauge guns, microwave cannons and or microwave guns and also laser technology. Also frequency jamming slash, remember we talked about this too, I really had touched on that in the last two hours. Any kind of signal generator that works in the appropriate spectrum of the, you know, the Up and down the radio dial, first of all identify what the aggressor's threat projection use is. Adjust accordingly, that's what the variable output signal generators, which are always dirty so that they cover a wide spread of frequencies. They bleed over into other areas, ensuring that the target doesn't get away. And what you've got is an effective method for dealing with the lower and middle tactical drones that are the most common threat and they're common because they become cheap. But if they're cheap and don't get to the target, they are less useful. and eating more of the enemy's time versus the value of returns. This is why weapon systems have changed over the centuries because the solution for defense is always cheaper than the offensive platform no matter what it is. And the cheaper that your defense systems are, the more you can put out there. And in this case, we can put a whole hell of a lot of everything out there in the field when the time comes. The drummatoids are a tool of the police state and there's something that we're going to put down along with the police state. See how that works? The global police state is in our crosshairs and for that reason we need to properly arm up everybody first with knowledge and then we again, physical capability, utilize the tools at hand. Somebody asked me twice your... Oh boy, sorry guys, I'm multitasking on the air here. Okay. 10 gauge guns are out there quite commonly. In fact, I've just said this over the last year, I have been seeing a massive quantity of 10 gauge here in Michigan at estate sales and yard sales because we do a lot of goose and waterfowl hunting here. And the 10 gauge is the air defense artillery gun at the top of the list as far as for doing Canadian geese or any kind of range bird shooting. So guys, the 10 gauge, if you're pointing it up towards the higher targets, it's pretty devastating. But if you turn it down horizontally against the aggressor, the two-legged thing that you're hunting, It's like a walking claymore and most everything that's built for the 10 gauge is built for waterfowl hunting. So the interesting thing is a lot of it's steel shot. It could be BB, it could be number four Ott buck. There are a number of other pellet sizes, all of them for smaller and mid range sized drones. They would be devastating. and integrating shotguns quickly into all of our forces is easy for the militia because we own a lot of different weapons. Bird barrel shotguns, somebody who's being snide and calling them FUD guns, well right now they seem to be the best choice for a relatively unsophisticated but very effective air defense. So, don't get rid of your bird barrels. In fact, you want to add a magazine tube, add a longer magazine tube to your 1100s, your 870s, your model 500s, whatever you can. And this gives you more boom, boom, boom, boom, boom when you pull the trigger, especially the 1100, which is a semi-automatic shotgun. Remington 1100, excellent firearm. And yes, they do make that in 10 gauge just as they make the big sister of the 870 in 10 gauge. Also Ithaca makes a blown up version of the Model 37 in 10 gauge. It came back and was resurrected in the late 90s and found a very popular niche as a street sweeper, which is what it became very quickly again. So again, 10 gauge is an option, but 12 gauge, anything you've got shotguns would do, but the bigger the bore, the more pellets down range when you pull the trigger. Hey, mine is the most important issue. Go ahead, call the gentleman there. Could you imagine a drone with a 12 gauge? Well, yeah, well you can actually remember, before we had all these magazine-fed shotguns, there were a couple of companies making conversions for the 1100 so that it would take a a Magazine rather than use the tube magazine and that was exactly the purpose to you know, see I've put a lot of firepower into the 1100 What's the I can't remember with the the 1200? 1100 is the Remington the 1200 is the pump Winchester But I can't recall the designation for the semi-auto Winchester and they had a conversion magazine well for that too. So, yeah, well with a commercial shotgun it would be cool. But there are magazine fed shotguns out there, but most of them have about an 18.5 inch barrel. We can use that. If that's what you got, that's what you use. But instead, you want a bird barrel. We don't want to hit them close. We want to hit them farther away because the reason those drones are a threat is because they may be carrying ordnance. So we're going to pop them like we do Canadian geese farther out. So absolutely. I'll tell you what, before we go any farther, Tom, stay right there. Everybody, we're at the bottom of the hour and so far we haven't done this, but it is Weapons Wednesday. And on weapons, there you go. But this one is mine! I'd a goodly speak ye may know it's turn a master If forward march with speed but you'll learn the back is much faster When you meet all mountain boys and the leader John Star That you make but little noise and always hit the mark Oh the rifle will prove no frightful No graves at home, back across the brine water A jitty must come like swell up to the floor But it's way the job must do and sooner it is begun If Lyndon figure hold him up to the flickers, we'll be done. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands hold the rifle, hold the rifle. We are back at right behind that, since obviously it's as good a song as any for Weapons Wednesday. Keep your rifle by your side. And in this day and age, Mr. Trump is showing his Neocon flag. He's talking about NAFTA gap part three. Here we go. No, we must protect our lands. Keep your eye full by your side. They'll come tonight, they'll have our children in their sight. Stand guard in every pass from north to south. They can scream, they can shout, they will never push us out. Keep your eye full by your side. No, Lord, they just won't stay away. Singing, Oh Lord, for this I- We need pay when we take a stand No, we must protect our lands Keep your rifle up, tanks, cause they've got funding from the banks We won't fall as long as we can fight So they'll go on as we hate But they won't get past the gate Keep your rifle by your side Singing, for this I need pay when we take a stand No, we must protect our lands Keep your rifle I But God, you better do that. Keep your rifle by your side. Make sure that you understand it. Master the trade. I don't care what weapon you bring to the battle. Just before you get there, master that weapon so you can take control of the battlefield and master the conditions that you live under. We're going to make sure that although the Fickle Figure of Fate might catch up with us no matter what, we're going to do everything in our power to be the best we can be. As far as being a warrior deployed in the field of battle against an aggressor who's thinking they're going to take virtually everything we own and leave us with nothing. We're just going to leave them crumpled, folded, spindled and mutilated on the battlefield and leave them in the ash bin of history. Get on with life. That's the plan to do it. We need to be better than the enemy we face. And that's your job. I can't do that for you. You're going to have to embrace the concept. With regard to air defense, air defense has come back down to the tactical individual level where it wanders every once in a while depending upon the tools that are being deployed. In this case we now have personal weapons that we're facing that can be dealt with. They're not all powerful. They're not, you know, they're not impossible to destroy. Yes, we know there are bigger ones. We have bigger weapons for the bigger problems. But most of what you see that they're trying to terrorize you with are the personal smaller pieces of equipment and Because they are part of the battlefield, we have to integrate an air defense policy and develop tools to deal with that particular part of the problem. Air defense and artillery fire and even small arms fire is a matter of progressive umbrellas of fire power that are distributed. So understand air defense works the same way. And literally when we say umbrella, that's what it looks like if you try to display it, how it works on the battlefield. You have overlapping areas of potential destruction that you create Anyway, we got Tom there. Go ahead Tom. Jump in Hey, do you know if they got an AR conversion kit for like a 12 gauge area? And have you ever seen anything like that? Oh sure. There's a button. Well, actually yes, there are. Remember their word before all of the look-alikes came out That was one of the big deals is that you had optional uppers that were being built by independent manufacturers a Few decades ago. You don't really see that like you did But the you have a lot of mimics of the air 15 Some of the first that were the 12 gauge magazine feds They were very much trying to continue to make them look like the air 15 if at all possible for selling as part of the selling feature It's not really necessary For that to be the case, and again, there's so many less expensive than probably the price of a conversion, you can get these, if you want to go magazine fed shotguns, these Turkish guns are out there in force, there's bull pups, conventionals, you know, there's every variation you can imagine. So it's purely matter, you know, what's your preference and what do you want to spend? But right now, those magazine-fed shotguns have come down to as little as about $236, $226, or a few of them, even $189 here a few days ago. So it makes more sense just to get another gun. Because there are still issues. You probably aren't, well, you're not, gonna have a three-inch Magnum 12-gauge upper attached to a conventional lower. Something because, again, length of the case. But a 2 and 3 quarter, as I recall, there were like three companies that made a modified air magazine and they used the standard well. And of course, they expect to use high brass for your case. Something to think about there with most of your semi-autos. If you are going to purchase one, then you need to be selective in your ammunition because for reliable semi-automatic fire, you want a high brass case round. If you don't know what that means, just look at the different shell casings. Some are only about a, the brass base is only about a quarter of an inch, the other, what I think, three eighths? Maybe, you know, three quail, three-quarters, not three eighths, more like three quarters. Three quarters of an inch or one inch depends on which company, because everybody has their variant and they're trying to skip to save money because brass, brass, even brass coated steel, costs money. Plastic, not so much. So. It would be an interesting idea. There are certainly the 410 models out there, but there are in most cases those again aren't magazine fed necessarily. Those in some cases are just single shot weapons designed to give you a survival shotgun option on an Air 15. But they are available. I don't know who's making them right now. I mean I haven't looked to see them. Nothing like that has popped out recently again. The reason is that the Turks have absorbed the market with the idea that, oh, might as well just buy another gun. You know, leave the AR-15 where the AR-15 is in its rifle category and go find another gun. And I understand. Like I said, this is stupid cheap, it's ridiculous. So, in fact, you're paying for a 12-gauge magazine-fed shotgun, which you have to pay for an average American .22 right now. So I mean because there aren't any really cheap 22's out there. There's a one or two or three but everything else is right at the middle range of the cost of a an average light rifle. So there again the world has changed. Remember 22's are the go-to because ammunition was cheap and the guns were cheap. But it's not like that anymore. So. Hey Mark. There's a... Go ahead, call her, jump in there. Yeah, this is Texas Mexican. Yeah. Yeah, I would just wanted to go over the drone or the microwave gun thing. I was a couple of things I wanted to go also say, but yeah, I was kind of worried about the range of those things because I do live within two miles of a rural airport and I have a lot of traffic air traffic goes over me during the day and I wanted to let y'all know about a YouTube video talking about the military's application for or use of a microwave weapon that supposedly you know is supposed to knock down drones and everything. They're already and it's called Leonidas, the end of drone warfare revolution. And the channel name is Warfronts, W-A-R-F-O-R-O-N-T-T-S. and it's got 730,000 views, which came out two months ago, but he's talking about the military's use of a machine that would knock drones down out of the sky and even of a drone that would carry a microwave weapon and be able to use against other drones. Just thought everybody might like to see that. I think it's 18, a little over 18, almost 19 minutes. Yeah, the cute part about that is again, dog fighting. Initially we were going with small, you know, years ago RC toys, the big thing about making RC aircraft was actually arming them. And the go-to gun was the Glenfield 22 with a 10-shot stamped steel magazine because it was the lightest. But a lot of guys, when the Ruger 10-22 became more readily available, it had been around for a long time. But you could strip down a Ruger 10-22 and turn it into an aircraft gun for air-to-air or air-to-ground targeting. And I could see first that would be the case drones chasing drones. So you have drone dogfights and then, wow, why don't we use laser or microwave? So it would be the silent war until the thing just falls out of the sky. Because it's very dull when these things go down. With the microwave weapon, it's just that you couldn't even hear it. But if you're close, you would hear what sounds like popcorn. What is that? Well, one of the first things that goes with a microwave attack are the diodes. You would think it'd be the microprocessors, which do. They go too, but they don't make any noise. But the diodes literally pop like popcorn. Because again, most of them are either, now they're filament rather than glass, but they're still both out there. And there's a pecking order to which solid state components will fail first. However, the inexpensive, cheap microprocessors that are used to make the drone possible are now probably as or more susceptible than anything. Whether or not the offering of shielding doesn't make any sense, only because the problem is the processor is hooked up through the circuitry. So you have this big lattice of wire, even though it's micro wiring, a micro schematic, a micro, say, motherboard with simply plated metal for the contacts for the board. That all collects the energy and transfers it to the components. That's basically the same thing that happens with the MP. So the microwave, the big issue here again is, as we said, range, because that will determine how quickly the target can be defeated or overcome with the energy. But this is something that's been around for a long time. They just didn't want to talk about it. So they let the dronitoids and the emotoids, hemorrhoids overrun everybody. They want that fear in the government. And in reality, the solution is sitting in everybody's kitchen. or all over the country in junk yards by the hundreds if not thousands. If you get a scrap yard before they crush them you can probably get as many as you want for a few dollars each. And the reason they're being thrown away is not that they stopped working, but they worked too well and the shielding has gone bad in something or the switch cut off switch won't work so it stays on all the time. Well, that's fine. Because we're going to fix that with a little modification to the wire harness. Go ahead Ed. There are some videos on YouTube debunking microwave weaponry. I know I posted one in the Guild a couple weeks ago pointing out, you know, part of the problem this guy had is he was using a modern microwave. Some of the modern microwaves, they don't have the proper emitters. They're low, they're energy efficient, so they have less power capability. So the more The older your microwave element is, the more effective it's going to be. Also, you need something to concentrate the beam to focus it in a single direction rather than wideband, you know, multi-direction, which is what a lot of these people... Wait, was he trying to be directional? No, he was trying to be omnidirectional. Oh, that isn't going to work. I mean... And he is trying to outside... Yeah, no, he was trying to outside the box trying to get fluorescent lights to light up. Well hold on real quickly before getting farther. I will say something if I was building it now now We're talking mostly about drones here, but thank you for bringing us up. I've mentioned this many times guys This microwave broadcast will work on anything that is micro circuitry well, what's the one thing that your enemies counting on not constantly as a matter of fact this communications and electrical technology for observation Understand that if you did it as an in-house, in a room, like a microwave mine, that it would be very effective at doing that. If it's out in the open, the drop-off in range is extreme very, very quickly. You have to focus the beam, number one, for any type of weaponization, again, for air defense use. But as far as in a building or in a room, ideally in a small room like a corridor, having a couple of them set up, they would, the communications and other technology would be knocked out almost as quickly as you hit the switch. And they really, it would, there would be a panic condition because they wouldn't know why it failed. There isn't any spectacular flame or explosion or noise or anything. It's just all of a sudden, it's broken. Just doesn't work, which is what we want to see happen. Go ahead Ed. Oh, we lost it again. It might be dealing with tech or whatever. Okay. Uh, go ahead. We got you. Hey, this is Brent in Las Vegas. Again, it came to mind right after I first talked to you, I sent you an email about three and a half, a little over half hours ago, and it's highlighting a couple of things from Leitner wise. Have you heard of them before? Leitner up. Yeah, lightner-wise.com. L-E-I-T-N-E-R-W-I-S-E.com. And they have high-end AR parts, but, you know, and this stuff isn't on sale, but they have what they call the long advance bolt carrier and what they did was they found that most those bolt carriers are not within the spec that they were supposed to be. They're at about 20.7 degrees and they're supposed to be at 22 and a half degrees when they unlock. Oh, okay. I got two of them and they're $225 a piece. It's not a sale item, it's just an experimental thing or if you want your gun to really run right. But also they have a heavy duty buffer where the bulk carrier goes over it. back in the buffer group and it keeps that buffer thing from springing forward. Well, instead of a little pin sticking up, this thing is beefy. You will not have failure. I had a friend, he had that pin bend actually in a pound up his gun and he played hell trying to get it apart. You know, that'll alleviate that. And I thought I'd bring that up. Go ahead and give out the name of the page a couple more times. That's interesting because that's almost a spook and coop kind of thing. You know what I mean? In other words, if the pitch or approach is supposed to be slightly greater or less, and you can build something so that it works, but you know it's going to create specific wear or malfunction over a period of time. That's something that's in line with what the bad guys do. In other words, it's not a big deal for you to do it right or have the proper pitch or have the proper approach and angle. Now, it doesn't mean that it doesn't work the other way. It doesn't work the way we're doing it with, say, all the other parts. But it means that you know that there is a higher probability of malfunction or issues. Which is very much in line as I've you know more you study the world and how it works. That's like the whole idea Yeah, we'll let you have guns, but you know you don't have these spare parts so we know that you're only good for about two years and the same would be true with Some an issue like that that doesn't mean that our parts don't work with everything else that everybody has It's just that as we've said you better have spare parts to replace for that very reason well There's one of the reasons if it's If there's a variance and that variance could easily be built into all the rest of the parts that are being made, then you got to put a question mark next to it. See what I mean? So the other part, the replacement part that you've acquired is correct and in fact completely meets the standards and allowance for consistent operation for an indefinite period of time as opposed to a limited period of time. Now everything wears out, but it sounds like that won't wear out as quickly Mike, could you repeat that again, please? It's well cut you what callers right there and again white nerve is that we nerve wise that is L E I T N E R Yeah, it t n e r in the are dash Wise W is e dot com And take a look at their party. I'm sorry L L e i n e r No, you need a key n e r. Yeah white Mary. Oh, mr. Buford. You're a very close Okay, it's Lightner, L-E-I-T-N-E-R dash W-I-S-E dot com. That's Lightner, L-E-I-T-N-E-R dash WISE, W-I-S-E dot com. One more time. L-E-I-T-N-E-R dash WISE dot com. Excellent. Everybody got that? I didn't mean to. Oh, that's okay. I'd rather get it. Don't, hey, we're going out on radio. Do you have any different ways people aren't hearing what we just said? So by repeating it, that's a good thing. That's okay. Excellent. Thank you, folks. Adios. Not a problem. No, no, we, everybody needs to be better armed. And in fact, again, it might be a more expensive solution. Not everybody can afford it or not everybody will move on it. But for those who wish to, hey, there's a good idea. So we can make it work. By the way, all my four-pod keyboard operators have come to help me for some reason. I don't know. I don't smell like sardines. I have no chicken. But I'm getting the whole crew here staring at the workstation for some reason. I might have mice or something here. I don't even know about. Anything else, caller? Are we good? No, there isn't. I'm good. Very good. Thank you for the follow-up. I appreciate that. Also, we are interested... They're looking for the best deal for AR magazines right now, again, and I. They've kind of spot-checking everything, but I only got so many hours of the day. We're looking for the best bundle or single mag deals we can find. The average hovering price of about $10 seems to be consistent. And you all may have noticed that Magpul seems to be creeping up in price. Now, that's not a surprise, because cost and inflation, which is the devaluation of the currency, continues. But there should be some little sweet deals here and there and there have been a few. For instance, Montana Air 15 had a couple of $6 mags but their shipping was such that it kind of drove it back up towards the $8 mark. They don't need to be fancy, they don't need to be the best mag out there. I'm going to remind you that a lot of the mags you're going to be using, you're going to dump once and probably never pick up. So, dump mags or drop mags in what we call breakout kits. That's where these mags go. The other consideration is you have a lot of mag pull mags. They're really nice mags. They're topical line mags. You get the cheap mags to wear them out for training so that you can save the mileage on the mag pull mags for when things go south. Now it doesn't mean you're going to get rid of the cheap mags. It means you're going to use all the mags you've got. It's that simple. Okay, we're at the top. End of the second hour, third hour. Forgive me here. One more time, Coleman's.com. They've got the boots and they have the Czech military N95 field park is up to 3x in the coats. Up to 3x grade 3 for $8.95 for up to size 3. 3x. So you want to take advantage of Coleman's.com. God bless our Republic. Yes, the New World War is a pure global war. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And we are on the run. Stay the night. Stay the night. New Rob, again, an omnidirectional broadcasting unit using the microwave system isn't going to work for any kind of range, except close range. And if properly used, it could be used for anti-communication, anti-night vision, anti-thermal for knocking out that type of equipment at close range. But a directional system is still your first best choice to focus all of the energy available against the objective no matter what it is. So, parabolic discs or rams or shields, something to deflect the energy in a particular direction, improvise, adapt and overcome. We're going to get out of the way. Thank you to WBCQ for having us on. 6.160 regular shortwave WBCQ, the rock. That's right, no, the planet. Anyway, we're out of here. Ed's taking over. More LTR coming up, and we will be back tomorrow, same time in snowy, lower Michigan. God bless. Bye-bye.
