The machines are running all night, where the weavers and cutters test each seed that they're woven in tight. Each strand and each thread is tested in true, while the knots are woven by hand. And on each rope, there will be a name of one who has betrayed his land. Our leaders have forgotten the oath that they took when they swore to protect and preserve our freedom and rights and religion too, in whatever church we serve. They lined all their pockets and deceived the people, and most went along with the flow. But tempers are short, and the memories are long. Each name the people will know. When each rope is finished, it's tested for strength, and packed in a bag with a hood. And upon the bag is the name of a traitor, who did his country no good. Someday we will hear that Nuremberg plea when the hour is drawing near. I was only doing what I was told. Another lie, I fear. And for those of you who don't believe, be around when the party begins. What next will be stretched and cries will be heard and the traitors will sway in the wind. You're walking through the mist with a hook we're torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me. He said, we fought a revolution to liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the land of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they can burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country deep. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit. So their children will be pure 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? sons of the republic arise take a stand defend the Constitution the supreme law of plan preserve our great republic and each god given right and pray to god as i awoke he vanished in the mist for once he came his words were true we are free but we have ourselves to blame for even now as tyrants trampled each god given right we only watch and tremble too afraid to stand and fight You 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? He called out from the grave. This is not the exception. It is the norm under a tyranny. It's those who do not embrace cowardice. Who are the ones who cast off the chains for all the rest? Who would rather wear them? 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. West, Northwest, and North. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com and libertytreeradio.org. We're on satellite because of a whole lot of great people who listen and then rebroadcast, analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States, and it is Weapons Wednesday. Oh no, yes, it's the 21st of May. This means it's also the last day of the first 21 days, the first three weeks of the month. How do you like that? And that means, well, again, 21 May, it is the 17th year of open obvious and in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2025 old earth calendar 2025 battle for the Republic Book 3 a dark anniversary. It's kind of dark outside, well, not really, gray outside we've had. Another classic rainy day, except this time the rain did consistently come down. We had a little hesitation, little hiccups, and then, yeah, it needed to, you know, it needed to not pour, but just steadily drizzle. And so the plants are happy. Everything jumped. In fact, I've got tomato plants. that leaked four more inches just from last night. How do I know? I looked right at them. I actually just re-dirted them and everything and it's like, these are doing good. Well, the spring rain with all that extra yumminess, especially being the ozone water that it is, when it hit the plants, they jumped. So I am very happy. I'll tell you that. And not only that, these are volunteer Well, tomato plants, these particular ones that I just put outside, have been part of that indoors experiment I've done for quite some time. So I have plants that I'm almost ready to actually get a pepper off of last year's plants, which will be the first of anything coming out of the garden. Well, look at the date. Most people aren't seeing that. Unless you do greenhouse. If you do greenhouse production, yes, yes, you would. You do see that. But this was just, hey, I already paid for plants, it's not a big deal, put them inside. And the little monsters did what they were supposed to do. I am very happy. So we will get a jalapeno pepper. That will be the first, is a jalapeno pepper. And then after that, well, roll of the dice. We'll see how the rest work out. Anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday. A couple things first of all, over again I mentioned this yesterday but today you might still be able to catch this over at CenterFireSystems.com. CenterFireSystems.com. Go over there and check out their deals. They have a small tubes, perfect for putting in your cleaning kit, bore cleaner, maintenance, juice, And another thing is a tri-mount. It's supposed to be for 22s, but the, for a 22 scope actually, but it's a tri-picatinny rail fixture for 99 cents. Go take a look at it. You'll see what I'm talking about. Not to explain it on the air here. You gotta go check it out. If they have them, I've already picked up quite a few because there's a couple of different things I use these types of fixtures for. And I can develop them, but one of them is for targeting systems. You need something to mount all the other ad hoc improvised equipment for research or for mounting laser, mounting light, whatever. And interestingly enough, this will mount to certain may K or AR barrels that have no accommodation for a picatinny rail, and it's a quick fix. If you acquire more goodies, you can actually attach them to the weapon quite readily. Interestingly enough, you can take the mount, flip it. What it is is the little picatinny rails are at the 9 o'clock, 12 o'clock, and 3 o'clock station. But you can turn it upside down, and so it's 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 9 o'clock, and you have the sights open on the top, but you still have all of the other fittings available for whatever you want to attach. So, it is a cheap solution for upgrading other weapons that otherwise might not have had special optics or laser sighting or whatever on board. And you don't want to cobble the gun up in this, you know, especially if it's something that Has a little bit of collectability example all those Chinese AK's we've got out there You know want to chew them up in fact chances are you'd be better off really selling them because depending on what how many you've got Sell one and pay for all the rest you bought years ago. You know what I've been saying about the price on those The insane price on those rifles and their value right now, but anyway over at Center fire systems calm They also have a number of surplus deals Including some web gear you might want to take a look look at if you have any of the German Web gear sets that are in the Cold War era German Flecktarn or OD Green. Remember, they made them both. They started out in OD Green and they produced them in Flecktarn and they've been using this rig for quite some time. They're popping out in surplus, they're not as cheap as they used to be, but they do have the rifle magazine pouches again for that system. So if you're committed to that, you needed some more pouches. I know where they came from, they all came from the same source, same place they always do, but CenterFireSystems.com hasn't been stocked. Okay, enough on that now. We're gonna end Q up, but don't bring it up yet if you could Guns and gadgets, I'll tell you when we're ready to go, but let's have the latest guns and gadgets ready Anyway, the gold dome the golden dome boy We're gonna have some more smoke pulling blowing up our butt. We get a lot of gold and smoke You know, it's that golden age golden dome. Oh, you know what? Let me ask you something Do you really think that the golden dome scam is gonna be American? What do you want in fact I'd like to see it mapped out. Where's the Golden Dome? Technology are going to be coming from This sounds like another welfare program for the Israelis another Israeli money scam Let me let me remind you of another famous scam with another republic rat in charge. It was George Bush GW And GW promised he was going to put the walls and the fences in order down on the border. He ran on that, kind of like Donald Trump did this time around. And what's fascinating is he even got like $8 billion, which was a big deal then, $8 billion to finish the fence down there on the border to put the wall up the way it should be, where some of it was put up by Trump later. But what happened is soon as good old GW and his Jewish handlers got in there Amazingly enough. Oh, we're not gonna do the fence and we're not gonna fix it We're not all fixed the wall cuz we've got this Jewish of his route. I say that mumble mumble virtual fence that we're going to put up. That way when they want to turn the virtual fence off, the Jewish mob that you now know is running the cartels, the Jewish mob that you know is the Jewish NGOs that pushed the invasion, back then the Jewish mafia in Mexico and the Jewish cartels, well they turned the switch off and all the drugs, fentanyl, cocaine, heroin, you name it. would run across the border and then the virtual fence would be turned back on and oh, there's nothing going on. Virtual fence. It was a way from the Jewish mob to flood the country with even more dope and of course the beginning of the fented all wave. That's under good old GW. GW, when GW got in there, you know what happened? The fence disappeared but boy the Israelis, they sucked that kit flat. That tip was flabby when it was done and the Israelis were the turds that sucked it. So the Golden Dome, I'm looking forward to listening. Seven times the price, it has to value. You got to buy missiles. And by the way, if we don't like America, we got a back door program so we can hit the switch. And Golden Dome don't protect your home. And all of a sudden, boom. Oh, hey, what are you going to do? You can try. I'll tell you about it. It's covered under the warranty. Oh, there's no one left to answer the phone. Oh, I am telling you. That's the crap you better be ready for. Because I guarantee that the golden chrome dome is another welfare scam for the Israelis. That's what's going to happen. Oh, do we have American companies? Yeah, they might get a little bit of contractor work. But let's see, what's the track record here for American contract work? Let's see, we got the grossly overpriced light tank that the government was supposed to have so we could ship two or three, which makes sense, the math is smart. Light battle tanks or medium battle tank would be fine. How much is the medium battle tank? See, the Abrams is not in any way shape or form a medium battle tank. It's a heavy or actually it would be an ogre, an ogre tank. It's up there in the MOS category in terms of restrictions for travel because of the limits of the road nets and cross country issues with regard to the big tank. So we were supposed to get a little take what happened spent billions of dollars Everybody's been padding each other's pockets squeezing each other's ass Steel the money left and right now all of a sudden guess what we're gonna cancel the project now it really didn't really bother me too much because The argument is that well the tank ended up being just as heavy and restrictive in terms of support as an Abrams And we got tons of Abrams what we need is for someone to lay down a simple spec and complete it, build it. This is the third light tank slash fake light tank project where they designed it. They built prototypes. They did, as I've told you many times, they've even said this, they built the XM models. They actually started making the tank. An XM model is what goes out to the troops. Well, even the prototypes can do that. They can do that, this is for the prototypes. Example, I think they built three of the bookers. Those would go out and be used by the troops to see, hey, how ergonomic is it? How does it work in terms of parts and pieces and assemblies? And what you do is you take the information and feedback supposedly, though this never really happens with the dweebs nowadays, to change out certain components. to make things better, to fix the broken. When you break it, you know, how to break, Bob? Well, this is what I did. Okay, we got to fix that, reinforce that, fix that, change that, throw that out, and we've got it done. So the Booker, other heavy tank, or in theory, medium but heavy medium tank, It costs just as much, weighs almost as much, is so restrictive in transport you can only move one. And the idea behind this, we've got to remember, like I've told you, it doesn't have to be equal to or comparable in survivability to any counter part of the battlefield. It's supposed to be a fast light attack vehicle. And for anybody, the first time someone gets killed and people go, well, why wasn't it a big Abrams or something? Well, because that's not what it's supposed to be. Airborne or air mobile units, and since airborne is available but probably not used too much anymore because of all the world of warfare we see, but it's out there, it can be available, then you need more of whatever it is that goes pew pew or boom. out there to the front because you're out on a stick, you're out on the end of a branch and somebody saw the branch off. If they have their way, they'll make you hyper-isolated. So the big theme here is to get more firepower, at least be able to distribute the firepower to create the appearance and be able to maneuver with weapon systems that will give you a little bit of a bite. They don't have to be equal to, remember first of all, air mobile or airborne units are supposed to be surprised and because they're mobility units, they're dropped into areas where the aggressor that they've chosen is ill prepared for the type of technology they drop into an area. and they exploit that temporary surprise advantage as they can. Well, they need more mobility, but they need more stuff. They need to be able to put it in more places. Better to have two, three, four, or five lighter vehicles with, you know, anti-tank or anti-position capability, being able to engage fortifications, than to have one Abrams slugging along, get knocked out, and then you have nothing. That's just how it works. So again, they broke all the rules, ignored it completely, cost us billions of dollars, and this is the third time that the asshats have done this, and it's not accidental. This has been going on constantly. And it's part of the intentional lack of proper defense of America by providing the tools to the troops that they need. Now, since I'm talking about stuff flying off the shelf, so to speak, because of discount prices, The other thing that is asinine is taking the Apache offline and that has to do with, and I'll tell you what it is also, I wonder how quickly the Jewish mafia, the Israelis, are going to get all of our Apaches. What do you want to bet? How much money do you want to lay down on that? Here's the scam that Trump has going with this BS. Those Apaches are going to get pulled and get handed over so the Israelis can use them for their stinking police state operations. And that way, and they always love doing this, even though they do have other either Israeli or foreign equipment, whenever they attack other people in the area, they put the American crap forward. Not because it's just the best. But also because they can go, see look, the American schmucks, we're dragging them around by their pisser. We drag them around by their weenie. Look, we got, look at the Apaches. Their own troops don't have it, but we got them. Oi, I'm telling ya. That's exactly what's gonna happen. That's why again, the vehicles that were pulled Number one, we do need a soft skin vehicle. There's another thing I would note. They pulled the skill-atized soft skin vehicle off of the inventory, but that's because it was grossly overpriced, I hope. On the other hand, maybe it wasn't run by the right Jewish company. We'll probably buy a comparable vehicle seven times the price at half the value. That'll be a total clunker. It's like that box car transport we bought from the Israelis years ago. We got stuck with it because you had to buy Israeli. Anybody remember that from back in the 80s? I do. And they were parked all over the place. I mean, they were parked across the country and they parked, we were sitting there until the tires went flat. But we had to buy them because the chosen wanted your tax dollars. You got to pay them seven times the price at half the value. Oi! So either a bunch of this stuff is being stolen from us or we just had a bunch of money stolen from the taxpayers. Take your pick. Now, as far as a soft-kin vehicle goes, what we really need is something about the size of a regular pickup truck with a crew cab. A long bed would be great for a lot of the vehicles. We need something that's cheaper so we can have 20 of them instead of one Humvee-type vehicle. If you want a Humvee, the way they're building a Humvee, call it what it should be called, which is an armored car. And you'll notice we have, we jump up to the Striker, we jump up to the Bradley, but there's a hole there. And what happened is this, they took the Humvee, which was supposed to be a soft skin utility vehicle and also a gun carrier. It wasn't supposed to be armored. Then a bunch of idiots who had no clue about how the equipment was supposed to be used go, they put our boys out there in the Humvees. Well, of course they did because they were used for what they intended. Well, it should have been armored so all of a sudden they take the Humvee and grossly overweight the chassis and the suspension system by adding armor and adding armor and adding armor and adding armor. By the time they're done, you should have bought that Cadillac gauge armored car that we used to have for that particular type of mission. Why? Well, because you could upgrade it with ceramic armor, take the same design we had in the old Cadillac gauge Air Force security had them, but also USMPs and other units had them. They'd be the perfect size, they'd be American-made. You could put ceramic armor, Kevlar armor on the inside, upgrade the design. And you'd have better protection, but as was intended. And you'd have tapered armor, which means you have the benefit of both deflection, but also, again, with a glacis, with a slope to the armor, you increase the protection to the troops. But instead, we could steal the money that way, Mark. We couldn't have our fingers in the till. Yeah, well, we would, but we'd be spending it on things that would provide our troops with more effective defense. They'd still be ripping us off. I mean, come on, you know who would be, you know what would happen. But it's true, yeah, instead the scam, I mean, everybody can see or get a feel for what all we've been ripped off by over how many years. So you can see the scam and it's really not changing. The four systems or six systems, but hey, look at it. that they're claiming that they've canceled. Well, the Apache, they have no business canceling. And the only reason the Apache is being taken off the inventory, the Jewish mob wants it for police state oppression operations in Israel and in the outlying areas where they're stealing property and wealth and killing Christians. Because that's their agenda. And again, the Apache is a great police state weapon. And the kosher mafia being what they are, either your A will be slid and disappeared into the black ops against the American population with what's coming or the Apaches would go to the Israelis and really there's no difference between the two because we know that both the Shysters are involved with what's going on with their prepared attack for America too. So another thing about this is again this golden dome thing, several people finally started speaking up, it's like, we mean we don't have this? Well, no, no, we, well we do and we don't. There's been a whole lot of money spent on surreptitious air defense. But as far as an official project, the only reason this official project has been brought up is the Israelis are now in charge of the United States. The Jewish mafia is going to gut us, gut our muck. They already got one bank selected for the first bank robbery and they're going to the second, the third and cleaning everyone amount on this scam. They got a sked mark for the scam. Go ahead, jump in their car. Wasn't it originally Reagan that had the Star Wars missile defense? This is just the latest version of that, right? Well, again, this is just like, yes, it's just, which by the way, remember, the Star Wars program involved a combination of laser defense, which they did build and they did perfect. They kept it very quiet. It's part of the same technology. It's now in the back, or the ascent of Air Force One, and onboard Air Force One on the upper nasal and the lower, you know, forward area of the aircraft. Remember we've been talking about the idea that they don't want you to see the end of Air Force One, they keep cutting it off? You can see any image, in fact even their propaganda images now where they do like line images, they cut off the ass into the plane which makes no sense. You ever see any image like that done with any other aircraft? But that's part of the subliminal conditioning. So I challenge everybody, watch. The 747 that they're using, when they're videotaping it for a C-SPAN or even the networks, they've been told, crop the shot, don't show the ass-setting close-up. In line drawing images, they're doing the same thing, though. in some of the artwork cartoon images where there's something with the plane in the background, they've cut the ass into the plane. So there's a psychological reinforcement to that. It's subliminal. So yeah, that's how we always picture aircraft. Really, go back to every plane. Go to YouTube. No, not YouTube. Go to, hey, Google. We don't know Google. Go to Google. Pick out an airplane. Show me an image anywhere in the images section for whatever plane you choose that shows the ascent of the aircraft turned into a foggy dead space where there's no image, no lines, no nothing. You won't find it. Because it's not part of the, again, aesthetically it doesn't make any sense. You're trying to show off the plane, so to speak, you won't look how fantastic and dynamic this is. But the ascent of the plane looks like I've been hit with an air defense missile because it's missing. Wow, well, at least to the middle of the rear stabilizer. So again, that's part of the Star Wars overlap, which the air defense platform systems on the ground are already in place too, the laser component. In addition to that, you have a whole series of different missiles, but you do not have the same official a due line or, you know, again, integrated air defense heavy platforms and medium platforms like we had through the Cold War defending the United States. And that's basically what they're claiming they're going to reinvent, so to speak. But why did we wait this long? Well, and again, it's a great way to spend money. Why wasn't Biden doing it? Or, well, of course, why wasn't Obama? We know he was, to a degree. because this money has been spent trickled into these projects progressively. Those are the ones that don't get any attention or they go into denial about except every once in a while they get caught while they're in the field either testing and or using for practice purposes. As we pointed out back in the 90s, late 90s especially, when the laser, well middle 90s for the laser because they were running the equipment all over the United States. And you want to do that especially with a an energy system because the energy system is going to be operating in different environmental conditions. Cold, high humidity, cold, dry. Think about how many different environmental conditions exist on the continent of America, North America. Anyway, it's about an hour. Before we go any farther, the Ed's probably ready with that guns and gadgets, but before we do that, Ed, I'm sorry. You've got to shift direction for a second. Here we go. My rifle is my best friend Before God There's danger, and there's danger in our hills Oh, here you not the thing in all the views But soon you'll know who the rifle, who the rifle In our hands, at a good big speed You may know what's your master It's easy, but you'll learn it back much faster When you meet our mountain boys And their leader John Woo-Dah Glad to make one little noise And always hit the mark Who the rifle, who the rifle In our hands It will prove no to rifle, Back across the ground, A hitty must come, as well as to fly. But it's the way the gods must do, And the sooner it is begun, If vengeance figure hold the bus through, The quicker it will be done. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle, In our hands, prove no to rifle, Hold the rifle, In our hands, prove no to rifle, All right, thank you very much, Edward. We are again at the bottom of the hour at libertytreeradio.4mg.com. Libertytreeradio.org is what you're listening to, the Liberty Tree Radio Network. And if you'd like to write us, you can write us at PBN P.O. Box 194, Dexter, Michigan 48130, that's PBN, P.O. Box 194, Dexter, Michigan 48130. And of course it is Weapons Wednesday. Close note on this thing with the Chrome Dome slash Gold Dome slash the Welfare Project for the Israeli scammers who will rip us off and set us up for defeat. It's their job. It's what they do, sir. Betrayal, it's normal. It's not the exception. We understand that. We know who you're riding with. We know what kind of creatures they are. wretched, horrible, treacherous creatures. But it's what you're stuck with. So we better be prepared. Obviously, government's getting ready for a bigger, better war. We should be too. So Organize Army Equipment Train is militia. Establish a 510 program in your area of operations. Logistics, the key to victory. Remember, you got to have it where you're going to need it, and you people are the ones that are going to make that happen. Again, make sure that you square your technology away. The first responder, go look in the mirror. Go in the bathroom. You wonder who's going to save the country. That's who's going to save the country. Congratulations. It's you. So we need to, again, prepare accordingly. Another thing here real quick, and Ed, cue up the guns and gadgets. We'll run that next. Also, over at... They have a bunch of really great, I don't mention the Glocks, I should probably, but they do have Glock parts and they have 80% kit components over there at AR-15 discount. Most of the other companies do. It's kind of neat. Everybody's doing ARs, doing Glocks. Well, or at least have the parts. So putting a Glock knockoff together is actually quite reasonable and I agree with it completely. More on that in a minute, but we're gonna do Guns and Gadgets next. Ed's got her up. Probably ready to go. Got a little bit of good news. And here is Garrett. Folks, when ETF says they're protecting your Second Amendment rights, you have to read the fine print. And what if I told you that the very agency responsible for some of the most controversial gun regulations in modern history just announced a gimme for those who they have wronged? Well, not everybody, because that would be every gun owner in the nation, but for the hundreds of federal firearms licensees that they shut down during the Biden administration's now reverse zero tolerance policy. Remember, that policy We saw folks lose their livelihood, their gun shops, their licenses, their FFLs. for minor clerical errors. There's a vast reason that people lost their licenses where before the ATF would help them correct their errors, get them right back on the right path, and get things back to normal. Now that policy was recently repealed by the Trump administration, but hundreds and hundreds of people were caught up in that zero-tolerance policy. And today we're diving into ATF's freshly updated page Titled, protecting Second Amendment rights. And folks, when the wolf puts on sheep's clothing, it's time to take a hard look at what's really going on behind the badge. Before I jump into it, I want to thank the sponsor of the video that's Blackout Coffee. The unapologetically patriotic coffee brand fueling freedom-loving Americans nationwide.

All right, let's unpack what the ATF is trying to sell us here Here's their newly freshly updated page on protecting Second Amendment rights. It says on February 7th of 2025, President Donald J. Trump issued the executive order protecting Second Amendment rights. Pursuant to that order, ATF reviewed the 2021 Enhanced Regulatory Enforcement Policy, sometimes called the zero tolerance policy. In May of 2025, ATF replaced this policy with a new administrative action policy. The new policy provides a fair framework for addressing violations uncovered by a compliance inspection, particularly when those violations do not impact public safety. Federal firearms licensees that surrendered their licenses, had their licenses revoked, or had their applications denied based on the E.R.E.P. may reapply. ATF will review new applications and all pending licensing matters under the new Administrative Action Policy. Individuals who have questions about an earlier decision or general inquiries are encouraged to contact their local ATF field office or email industryliaison at ATF.gov. ATF is committed to fairness and transparency in its regulatory enforcement program and to protecting American Second Amendment rights while also protecting public safety. Sounds great, right? You know, you dig a little deeper into the ATF. Here's what you'll find. The ATF claims its mission is to protect communities from violent criminals, criminal organizations, and the illegal use of traffic and firearms. They go on to say that they'll enforce federal firearms laws with a focus on keeping firearms out of the hand of criminals while respecting the rights of law-abiding citizens. Yeah, respecting our rights. Tell that to all of those FFL owners who lost their livelihoods, or the FRT owners who got their doors kicked in, or the veterans who got flagged by nicks due to bureaucratic mix-ups, or the millions of lawful Americans who suddenly became felons overnight thanks to pistol-brace reclassifications. These folks who lost their licensing due to the zero tolerance policy, as long as it's not due to public safety, they should get their licenses back immediately for free. They shouldn't have to reapply and pay all that stuff again. It should be done immediately and for free. The EDF also posts about its public education and outreach to promote safe and legal firearm ownership. They highlight things like their involvement with the National Firearms Act and the eForms portal and industry compliance checkups, IOIs. A translation, we're watching everything you do, but don't worry, it's for your own good. They mention supporting FFLs by offering compliance inspections. Those are unannounced audits. and also offering education on how to follow those regulations. They stress how they partner with law enforcement to reduce firearm-related crimes. But what they don't mention is how often those so-called partnerships lead to excessive raids, data collection, and backdoor registration schemes, like the one we recently covered in Florida. Now, here's the real kicker, a quote from the ATF site that should send chills down every freedom-loving American spine. ATF enforces the Gun Control Act and the National Firearms Act, ensuring that all applicable federal firearm laws are carried out responsibly and fairly. Now, let's be honest, the Gun Control Act and the NFA were never about fairness. They're both unconstitutional. They're both illegal. They were about control and responsibly enforcing an unconstitutional law is still enforcing unconstitutional laws So why now why do this now? Why is the ATF suddenly trying to sound like our friend? Could it be the mounting pressure? The legal pressure specifically from all of these pro-tui lawsuits that are you know bearing down on them right now Could it be the backlash over pistol brace overreach or FRT crackdowns or the revelation of these illegal registries? Guys, gals, remember government agencies do not voluntarily give up power. They just rebrand it. So here's what we need to remember. The Second Amendment is not a privilege granted by the government. It's a God-given, constitutionally protected right. The ATF doesn't protect your rights. The people do. Through vigilance, civic pressure, lawsuits, and voting. Unfortunately, lawsuits was in there. When unelected bureaucrats Start playing PR games. It's a sign that they're feeling the heat. So let's turn up that heat If you found this breakdown helpful make sure to hit that subscribe button and turn on the bell notifications Because this channel is dedicated to keeping you informed engaged and empowered Share this video with your friends your family and especially those who still believe the ATF is somehow on the side of the Constitution Let's wake them up. Also send us to any FFL. You know who might have been caught up in this because most people aren't actively looking at the website for the ATF. I want to thank GOA for the hat tip with this information and you know drop a comment down below. Do you believe ATF is protecting the Second Amendment or are they just trying to protect their reputation?

This is Jared from Guns N' Gadgets, the premier source for Second Amendment News. Until next time, stay safe, stay ready, and stay free. God bless America. Take care. And again, a reminder here too, first of all, with FFLs, in the past it was 100% paper bookkeeping. One of the mistakes that many people in their, I don't know, conditioned lazy attitudes about operations went with the E-Form system, which is nothing more than a computerized, which by the way is not only illegal, but unlawful under the Gun Control Act of 1968. I hope you all know that. I'm surprised that GOA hasn't approached that with the E form because it's stated uncategorically that under no circumstances, this was one of the many arguments that a leftist or a tyrannical regime, you know, leftist, would take over the country and if the database was computerized, then they would know everybody automatically. If they were going to do this logbook crap that they came up with, the logbook was controlled by the FFL. If the FFL, this was the argument, 1967, oh, this is going to be safe, there won't be any government massive tracking of the guns, and it'll be prevented because the FFL has the authority to demand that the government cease and desist If the attempt to access their files in the FFL believes that they are trying to create lists of owners and or extensive off-book files separate from the FFL's logbook slash files. Now who would be stupid enough to believe any of that bullshit? Considering what we've seen, and by the way, example is just how they ran roughshod over these FFL dealers when the whole argument behind the FFL was that the FFL operators would have the ability to be part of the checks and balances against illegitimate listings and collecting of data by the bat faggots. Don't think I know what I'm talking about? Well, go do a little research on the debate and also the arguments pro and con by the way to include a bunch of idiots slash traitorous supposedly pro-gun people. Oh, it's gonna be safe! And one of the people who helped to push the Gun Control Act of 1968 was a guy named Charlton Heston. What? Oh, he didn't know that. Gregory Peck, Kirk Douglas, Charlton Heston were all the reasonable minds that we gotta have. Not most, no way, not him. Yeah, no way, not Chucky Heston. And by the way... Remember him? From my cold dead fingers in the 90s. Right. From my cold dead fingers, yeah. While he was holding a musket over his head, because heaven forbid it would be a modern rifle, right? Because the NRA was busy betraying you at that time. Remember he had dementia back then. He didn't know what he was talking about. Yeah, he knew exactly what he was talking about. No, in fact at that time he was quite young, if you recall. We're talking 1966-67. Now it's interesting again that, for instance, if you were running an FFL and the Batfaggots showed up with their surprise visit, and you were supposed to, here's how it was supposed to work, you weren't supposed to give them the books and they get to sit off to the side and do whatever they want because they're cross-checking your records. You were supposed to monitor them constantly and if you suspected that they were writing down or copying information electronically and or mechanically, then your job was to halt. The ATF's activity, the agent's activity, and immediately demand that they leave the premise. What do you think would happen with the conditioning of all these knuckle dragging shoe size IQ, roided up ass hats that we have in government? Oh, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang So, fact of the matter is, you see that this whole situation, this is, and I told you so for all the people who said, no, this is garbage, they're lying, they're going to violate this. Oh, you're just an alarmist, you're just crazy, you're just trying to stir the pot. And lo and behold, what have we seen? In fact, the situation that just happened in any other Federal agency record system, if you have a minor clerical error, or even a few, there is no such thing as a perfect record book. Well, except maybe mine. Everybody goes, what? Well, guys, remember, I ran an FFL. And for another person, I actually ran the FFL. Nobody else was running it. I was basically the person who was responsible for everything. But the other man's name was on the FFL. And what's interesting about this is that back in the day I had been in the military as you know and I was I understood the concept of anal retentive control freak paperwork and if any of you know me I was also a draftsman so I can write really clean and I can also write really tiny. So my attitude was, well, they allow for specific points to be filled in with abbreviation. I never trusted that. So I would take a micro pen like the art pen I've got in my hand right here that I actually use for the notes during the program. This is a ultra-fine graph line pen that's used for inking in drafting. I've got hundreds of these things. I keep running into more. I grab every one I see. But because of that I could take that little 4-4-7-3 form and I would get in there and I would literally not just give the abbreviation for the state I would write Massachusetts or Illinois or Texas or Michigan Etc. So everything was everything was printed and it was hand printed of course it had to be anyway It was supposed to be by pen, but what's cute is I, when they, well, the first time that they did inspect my paperwork, now, again, there was none of this bullshit computer crap because, and that's the last thing I would have allowed anyway. But what's interesting is the character came in, did the, looked in my, in the glass cabinets there and said, oh, you have a machine gun. Now, of course, that was their classic coach response, as I've told you a million times, if you had an Uzi on display. And then they'd look at the AR-15s I had on the rack and go, and you have assault rifles. Are those fully automatic? And I said, no, those are already sold. I got rid of those. They were gone. Actually, there's a book there somewhere. I can't recall. Why? And they did, oh, what? OK, no, I actually didn't do anything. I just said, yeah, you know better. Actually, that's what I did say. I said, yeah, you know better than that. So anyway, I set the individual down with the paperwork and he went over every book because I also had a fourth set of books. You're almost supposed to have to carry three. You should anyway, but I carried a fourth book off-site so that I had everything duplicated, not for, you know, a high note for any kind of... The insurance was against them trying to fabricate something. And he went through the books at the end of... He spent a full two days going through all the books. And normally they only come in for half a day and they're gone. But his problem was he couldn't find any errors. You got to remember, what else did I take in the way of classes? Bookkeeping. So let's see. I was with an anal retentive organization, US Army Intelligence. I, of course, have had plenty of experience with administrative process. That's a good thing. But I also, with bookkeeping, I will say this is true. There isn't a possibility of making a mistake if you're a bookkeeper. This is why bookkeeping is so tedious because you can't make mistakes. The red and the black have to balance out to either being red or black at the bottom of the sheet. It's just all there is to it. There's red, there's black, there's black, there's red, there's red, red, red, there's black, black, black, red, black, red, red, you get to the bottom, it better either be red or black, and the numbers better add up. Or somebody might go to jail, or at least they'll try to claim they should take you to jail. So the thing is, at the end of the time, he goes, I can't find anything wrong with your books, but I have to find something wrong with your books. So, here's what I see. And he went through and all it was was, you know, one part of one of the letters where I had squarely block printed everything, wasn't quite attached. So, I had, he had to have three flaws in my paperwork for it to look good. He had to have three flaws. When he went, that's what he finally told me. He said, I have to have three flaws in order for me to make my report. So, you did this, and you did this, and you did this. And you need to correct it. And it's like, so I grabbed my little pen and I went over and I closed the top of the R. Oh, what a total waste of life's time. What a total waste of life's time. I guess you don't have to write a report then, Agent Bloblaw. Yeah, exactly. Well, you know, as it is, it's like, yeah, he admitted, well, you know, at least I've never seen books like this. You probably won't ever again because nobody's patient enough and I just like it said I'm not going anywhere and so again the 4 4 7 3 is the blue forms which you don't know about or see anymore Those were complete and intact which is rare usually somebody makes a boo-boo on those but it's the idea that as he pointed out guys they expected you to have a It's not a clear. It's not a technical error. We say clerical error It's like you abbreviated a state rather than spelled it out. And I'm serious about this, okay? I would never abbreviate for that reason. It's like, no, because somebody would come in there and would get a burr up their ass and somehow reinterpret whatever it is that you've done, no matter what it is. Now they all know what the abbreviations are for the states because guess what? It's a standard established by the U.S. Postal Service. So it's purely for the sake of pissing with you. Well, they got to the point, as we warned everybody, they would. You just saw this for four years, actually, it was longer than that because you were doing it under Trump too, but Trump doesn't want to talk about that. But they were pulling this crap two years before Biden came in already because we talked about it on the air. So it's really six years plus where they really got anal retentive control freak and they were attacking people. Remember Red's Gun Shop up in Montana? Remember that story I brought up and it wasn't being covered but in a few places? Red's Gun Shop, I'm from, yeah, Montana and I won't say Idaho. I think it's Montana. If it wasn't, it's in the panhandle. Idaho slapped me in the microphone because it's right there on the border. But anyway, Red's Gun Shop was the oldest gun shop in the West. It had an FFL that had been nonstop in service from the beginning of the Gun Control Act of 1968. They had a little warehouse garage that was literally a block of 4-4-7-3s. Now because of this, the Batfaggots couldn't take the F-F, they couldn't take the 4-4-4-7-3s. Well you need to hand these all over to us. So what they were trying to do through technical, you know, technical malfeasance is try to force Red's Gun Shop to shut down, which is what they did with all these other gun shops, for the purpose of acquiring virtually what? 50 years worth of 4-4-7-3's that they hadn't been able to touch, that they couldn't turn around and log over into the computer system they claim they don't have. And by the way, which under the Gun Control Act of 1968, Flat Out says they can't have. Well, under those circumstances is the information of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms with regards to the Gun Control Act 1968 to digitally represent any of the information provided by gun owners. In fact, even specifically mentioned IBM punch cards. Ed or any other type of ID, you want to know why they mentioned IBM punch cards? Why do you think they mentioned IBM punch cards? Because that was the standard of practice in those days, Mark. And, gosh, I'd say a PDF file, even though it's not editable in the form that they may choose or a JPEG file, I'd say that's a whole lot more complicated and forward thinking than anything they could have imagined in that day. Kind of like why you came out in M16, you can only have a musket. Yeah, well here's the other thing. Guys, why is it some people specifically said IBM Key Punch is because the Gehenstas Polizai, the Gestapo, were the first police state, police organization to utilize computer data processing. And the technology was produced by, that's right, International Business and Machine, IBM. What system did they use? The punch card system. So what's interesting is, well, we would never do that. Well, just to be safe, let's remind everybody that other people had done this, that the KGB was doing it at the time, but of course the communists had already gotten everybody disarmed because they were Jewish, and the Jewish communists made sure that everybody was disarmed, only people with paperwork could even touch a weapon unless they conscripted you, and then of course they expected you to be the sack of potatoes up front taking the bullet for the Commissars and for the Jewish Communist, blah blah blah blah blah. So the interesting thing is that there was a reason for that gig because of the people who were always going, I'm a victim, I'm a victim. We don't want anybody to be a victim in America to a police state trying to track all the guns in the country so that people can't resist tyranny, right? No, because the Jews were the ones who were pushing the Gun Control Act. So by throwing that out there, everybody they had, they just shut up. They literally didn't know what to say. The Jews that were pushing the gun grab were slapped in the face with their whole propaganda line. Now the gang stops police and they get stopped. They were using rackets and this and they were so evil. Well, you give up blah blah blah blah blah. But you see it was correct because the kosher mafia planned on doing this then and we can see where they went with it, can't we? And where they're still going with it. Go do a little research on the Gun Control Act of 1968 and especially the Congressional Records information that a lot of the other organizations put out there back when it was happening. Anyway, we're back at the top of the hour. We've got to get out of the way for a little bit, guys. We're going to hear the music. You're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. So not anything new, it's just that in the past, it's just like everybody said. Well, if there was something that was straight, you just told them to fix it, and because that's what you're supposed to be there for is to work together. No, they're not. They consider everybody the enemy. Gun owners, FFLs, and gun manufacturers. And the turds, slash filth, slash incre-ee, or the disgusting Ilkin government. Their purpose is to desperately try to disarm the population to the best of their ability to help implement tyranny in the United States. They just haven't gotten it completely yet. Although they would get our bullets if they tried, and they'll receive a lot of them. They'll become bullets. Don't hesitate to say that. Why? Because that's what our weapons are here for. Let's take a break. Let's run out there. Grab a cup of coffee. God bless the republic. We're on the march, so stay in nice. 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 sheep. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm and keep our country. 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... 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 fear and be a slave? 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 as I awoke he vanished in the mist for when his words were true. We are free, but we have ourselves to blend. For even now as tyrants trampled each God given right. We only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. He stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer? He called out from the grave. Afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is the second hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm R. Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, northwest, south, and west. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we are on satellite because of individuals who listen and rebroadcast both analog and digital satellite. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside these United States. And it is Wednesday! It's Weapons Wednesday. That's a nice day. It's very, very, very useful. It is the 21st of May. It is the 17th year of Obvious and In Your Face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K20. Really. 2025, old earth calendar. Give it all, she's got Captain. 125%. Ugh, she might still blow up. And 2025, Battle for the Republic, Book 3, a dark anniversary. Yes, real quick, what made the Gammstas Polizai, the Gestapo, so efficient before World War II? In fact, to be quite honest, if you knew the history of the Gammstas Polizai, They originally were the equivalent to a sheriff's department or local PD, but there was one thing they became really good at, and that was records keeping, which put them in the forefront of operations down the road with the Third Reich. And it should be noted that, again, they got a lot of assistance from certain companies. One of those was IBM. And the database, the system for record and collection of information that was used, the card system and other, in fact they also used the old, which some of you might recall for computer programming, the tape. The equivalent to ticker tape. Actually, ticker tape is a comparable system concept, but the material that was used was different. The ticker tape feed, the materials that were used changed over the years. In the later creation, they actually used a Plastine tape, and the advantage of this for computer programming, which is how I learned to program computers, the combination of both the tape system and a card system. You might recall it was a yellow 3 quarter inch or 1 inch program dot matrix system and you it was a punch system like think of it like Braille only it's a punch through system You would you know set up your program you would identify the task once you create that tape you would take that run it through and the cards for translation to the IBM system would be made by that tape Now either one could be used depending upon the system because these were you know, these are antique now This is dinosaur now, but back in the day either system could be used for the interpreter that would actually process the the the airspace created by either the Chad TAD system, you know tab system or the circular punch-out system circular puddles. Do you have any honey chads back then, did they Mark? No, it's amazing how we didn't have any of that. You know what, that is fascinating. It's amazing how good everybody got it, making sure by God those little chads were completely perforated. In fact, we had a little tool kind of like a busman's tool or like a conductor's tool, you know, like a tag it. You know, just like you used for doing hole punching for paper. It was for hole punching for paper, but it was a little tag system and you line it up and then talk about tedious. So anyway, the point is that They understood how police states work or how government works and the people who were concerned and knew exactly what the traitors behind the scenes had planned. They accounted for that. They pointed it out. They put it in record. It's out there to be found. It needs to be resurrected and used by gun owners of America or any of the other groups out there. They need to start quoting. If they want to overturn the Gun Control Act of 1968 in the year 2025, all of the proofs are available to demonstrate why the destruction of the Gun Control Act of 1968 and the NFA Act need to take place because it has been demonstrated that the purpose behind all of this activity was to enslave the American people by disarming them. And the scum and the filth and the excrement stuck to our government buildings that are the foreigners who have come in and occupied, well this our ass needs to be gone. There's a lot of comments about Quatar, you know, Qatar, the Qatar right now, the Qatar or Qatar. Let's just call it cater. How about we call it cater? Looks like cater to me, sir. Kater, Quasar, Quacker, something like that. I seek you word. Okay. Interestingly enough, everybody's pointing out, well, Bobby worked for the group that was representing the embassy of Qatar in Washington, D.C. Cash Patel worked with a similar organization and all of them seem to come back to Kater. Okay, Qatar. Okay. Or Qatar. Is it Qatar? Do I have to roll the R at the end or do I have to imply the R in the middle? Which is it? There are so many ways you can pronounce things, especially if you have the background of the people you aren't talking to. And of course, depending on who it is from what part of the planet, who may not have nothing to do with the word to begin with. Oh my goodness. So anyway, here's an interesting thing. Again, the getting the plane for free thing. Apparently, the donut of destruction has accepted the Qatar plane, under the argument that somehow we're going to use it as Air Force One. Let me ask you something, though, about the civil war going on inside the United States between Jewish Faction A and Jewish Faction B. Why would they accept a foreign built, or I should say foreign configured? It's not foreign built because that 747 had to come from the Boeing plant up there in the Seattle Tacoma area, right? Anybody ever been by that? I went by that back when it was first built, but I remember when it was being added onto in the early 60s. I have a vague, I remember that sitting in the window of a Galaxy 500 as we went by and we were looking at that and going, wow, that is a big building. And they hadn't even built the expressways out to the Boeing plant. Well, they built some of it, but they had like skyways that had drop-offs to eternity because all they had was a little rail. to prevent you from falling off the end of the ramp if you were half asleep at night. But this is during the day. I saw this all during the day. I go, this is pretty impressive. Okay, go ahead. Jump in there. I actually followed up on that story because I wanted to know more about that plane anyway because everybody was saying it was a Prince's personal plane. It's not. It's part of their fleet. But it was a it was his friend ambassador It does not have really as many bells and frills as people thinks it thinks it does because the prince offered it Like you said it this plane was Trump's accepting it it was offered to Biden Because Air Force one and Air Force 1.2, you know that both of them need to be put in a into No in the maintenance And they don't have another one to replace it. There are two that are supposed to be built by Boeing that are not going to be ready for another eight years. So we got a free plane offered. We don't have to do anything. I actually agree with Trump on this. It's a free plane. They offered it to us. They know they have to go through it. They know it's probably going to cost $1. billion dollars for them to go over every nut and bolt but they would have had to have done it anyway no matter what company it came from. The whole key factor is you don't have to pay for the plane. It's not going to be Trump's plane. It's going to go through its run. I mean seriously it's all there. There's like a contract with this thing, Dad. It's going to go through its run and if they retire it When Trump retires, he wants it to go to his presidential library like the Air Force won the operations library. But he acknowledges that it's going to be the first one of the planes that Boeing is building. It's going to be in service until then. And since it's eight years out, they're saying it's going to be eight years out before the first Air Force one replacement that they're building is going to be done. It's going to be in service while past Trump's term. It's not going to become his point. Right. But here's the thing. Mark, the liberals are claiming that they're trying to bribe Trump. Trump doesn't have money that he could afford to buy several of these planes on his own and not really put a big dent in his monetary background. So, the hell on them, you know? But one of the other things about getting a plane in this situation If you were to take a plane, now I want everybody to think about how many scurrilous things you've seen happen that you now know about over just the last couple of years, but which we've been talking about for decades, okay? Would you trust a plane that was from say Boeing's fleet to utilize if Boeing were giving it to you? I want you to think about this. We haven't had an Air Force One fall out of the sky, but if it were to happen, it would happen to Donald Trump, right? If we understand that you've got a dagger war going on between evil creatures, I wouldn't even trust the plane they're building right now. You know that sounds weird, but no I wouldn't I wouldn't have a whole lot of confidence first of all granted you know companies are go beyond borders, but you know Boeing is located in one of the three top communist states in America right now that has individuals who have occupied and thrown out local government and or have thrown out any type of safety and security repeatedly. In fact, it's right there in their backyard, right there in Seattle, that nobody's talking about now. So, you think about this. It sounds weird, but because we know that Trump is, these are all business partners. Qatar is providing this, and half the people that are in Trump's president administration have had some kind of under the table agreement or arrangement and business opportunity with guitar. So Qatar also being joined at the hip with Israel. Okay, it's Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Israel. All the USAID money was being filtered through these countries. The Jewish mob on the one side is involved in a lot of clandestine activity. They're whining because Qatar is, it's a terrorist thing. It supports terrorism. Yeah, because it's the money mover for the Israelis. And if you mention ISIS, Israeli Secret Intelligence Service, oh no, I mean the fake Israeli-run terrorist organization, ISIS, which by the way still is Israeli Secret Intelligence Service, the money is all going through Qatar. So Trump is with the open Israeli hardcore faction. The other group are the open, really hardcore faction Communists who don't like the fact that it looks like somebody else, Anashkenazi, is going to be the one getting to the top of the theses pile and grabbing the golden ring before they do. So it's interesting that the subroutine here Having a plane come from Qatar is less likely to have any kind of onboard available sabotage, onboard software additions to make the plane fly into the ground or crash into something, etc. Although the technology was still probably mutually available in any 747, it's most likely been gone over and would be picked through. So the Quatar aircraft from that perspective would probably be a better, safer choice than anything people who want you dead who've already tried to shoot you. And we debate whether or not that's real. My argument is, yeah, it's real because one Jewish faction has tried to kill the other Jewish faction. There's no American stuff going on here. This is just one power group versus the other. One royalty element trying to go after the other. This is like the Borges in Italy. It's like the Falstaff or the Habsburg, you know, contingents going at each other in Germany or in the lowlands way back when. Or how about the, it's like the Civil War of the Roses in England. In this case though, it's more clandestine dagger war stuff where they can, you know, everybody, nobody's going to investigate on the other side if something happens to somebody on your side because they want to keep it in house. It's like the, and you've seen the best example of this right now. Did you see Dan Bongino and Cash Patel sitting there looking like they had a stick ramp up their ass? when they said that, oh yeah, I've seen all the paperwork as they look squarely and stare off, they got a thousand yard stare in front of the person asking the female, asking the questions. And it's, yeah, we've gotten all the information and Epstein killed himself. And then Bonjino goes, yeah. Yeah, he's a both lion. Well, I'm looking at my, I've been with a lot of people and they look like they had a stick, they had a pool stick shoved up there, and they were absolutely still, they were absolutely parrot. They were robotic. And the reason for that is, again, within the realm of clandestine operations, Hillary the Hutt has not been arrested and put in jail, even though Trump had ample opportunity to do it, and stood up on the stage and made a comment like that the last time around. Well, that's been eight years ago, people. Well, for years ago. What am I talking about? Eight years ago, yes. So eight years ago Hillary the Hutt was supposed to be serving, you know, her seventh year in prison by now. Or six, depending on how long it takes for the trial. But that never happened, did it? Why? Because the dog and pony show for the public consumption is one thing, and the actual fight behind the scenes, which can become very vicious, is another. Everybody see how this works? That's why, like I said, plane from Qatar, well, or Qatar, or Qutara, or Tikur-Bik. But whichever, well, however you want to pronounce it, that plane might be a lot safer in general over anything that would be provided. I mean, let's think about this. Remember when Hillary, I just mentioned Hillary, right? Well, Hillary was running many years before that for senator. There's a certain person who was running against Hillary Clinton. His name was Kennedy, by the way. What happened to him? Why did Hillary win so easily? He died in a plane. He's supposed to be died in a plane crash. Yeah. All of a sudden he gets in his plane and while it's in the air they said the radar signature looked like the plane turned into two aircraft. In other words, it broke into two pieces in the air and then went to the ground, to the surface and crashed into the ocean as two big separate chunks of plane. You see how that works? Now that was pretty stinking public, wasn't it? Wasn't that pretty stinking public? So, to see, even though we haven't lost, in fact, amazingly enough, let me point something out historically about aircraft. At one point in time, the Air Force One, one of the Air Force One aircraft was a constellation, okay? Guys, now granted, you've got to admit, like any of these aircraft, they're going to go over it, they're going to demand reinforcing, and you pay for the extra fuel to keep the plane in the air because you'd rather have a stronger aircraft in general for performance. This is something you're going to do. You can make a plane fly and you can use the horsepower you've got But it's going to cost you more fuel to keep it in the air wherever you go. But it will least likely be a failure. It's amazing that the constellation, which had a lot of toothing problems and still had quite a few service crashes during its lifespan. The constellation is that one with the three single stabilizers in the rear. Remember that? It's a neat looking. It's a sleek looking turboprop. But that was actually an executive aircraft and of all the planes that you could have probably long-term flown, constellations had a few instances where they just fell out of the sky. However, the 747 Boeing doesn't have that history. So if anything were to happen with that aircraft, It would be suspect no matter how we look at it. Now, I, hold on, call for just a second more. Let me point something else out. Anybody remember the old movie Escape from New York? Everybody remember that? What was the beginning of the movie, guys? What was the beginning of the movie? The very beginning. There's a female in a cockpit and she's shouting, she's ranting and giving a speech over the control over the microphone of a plane. And then as you pay attention, the crew's been killed and she's locked herself in the cockpit and the plane is flying towards New York. It's at low level flying towards New York City. And everybody in the back in the aircraft is trying to kick that bulkhead door in and they've tried to shoot at nothing works. So finally it's like, Mr. President, we can't get through to them. So what do they do? They take the president back to a pod, put him in the pod, and Mr. President ejects with that safety pod. as the plane collides into the skyscrapers in New York. Now that's not far-fetched. You would see to me that although we don't need to tell anybody that the Air Force One would have that type of security option, and again, you can't just throw a guy out on the plane in a jet. You have to have a system to do that. So just something to think about there. That would be one of the add-ons that I would have. I mean, it would be logical. And it wouldn't be that if you'd be screwed, everybody else would be screwed. Nobody else gets to go with the president. Well, maybe one guy with a gun or something, who knows. But it's the idea that pushing him out of the plane rather than him going to the scene of the crash site would make sense. But that would be the only variation. I mean, otherwise, again, which would be safer? Receiving an interim aircraft from Boeing with people who probably want you dead. or taking a plane from a foreign country who you under the table and through your allies like Israel, they've been dealing with them forever and they want good business. They want to maintain the business. In fact, they've got power right now. If they have their way, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Israel are going to screw Syria. Iran, Jordan, they're going to hockey puck Egypt and they're going to steal a whole bunch of property and wealth from all those countries. Qatar will profit from Donald Trump being there as he turns a blind eye to the butchery of Israel. So you see why that's a safer deal amongst thieves, amongst crooks and criminals, amongst criminal government. That Qatar plane makes more sense than all the rest. Go ahead, College, jump in there. Hey Mark, it's John from Follerville. Hey, I wonder your opinion on since that 747 is a it's a bigger 747 it's a 747-8 you know what I mean the fuselage is longer Right. Yes, it's a bigger it is. Yes, it is. It's a higher. It's actually has more capacity. Go ahead. I'm sorry Plus not sorry. Plus it it has four engines. What's your thoughts? Because I don't think Boeing on their current roster has any four engine planes. Do you think that's part of it? That they want? Well, that's the question about why. Well, that's why I think they're behind because the last 747 rolled out a while back. So they should have the ability. I mean, since the last of the 747s or the 747 line as it was built, Most of that was by the time we were getting into the later production is all computer memory, although who knows what they've gotten rid of because they changed technology. The tube mill all went to China. Remember that? One of the biggest aluminum tube producing machines in the world was at Boeing and they sold it to China. That's what China was making, all those shipwreck planes that they've been making. Now, that's why it's interesting why it's taking another brackets eight years for Boeing to do what should be a priority project. Let's see, what country is Boeing in? What's in the United States? I don't care what other contracts exist. Wouldn't you think that if Boeing were an American company that all of the resources that they could would be poured into completing as quickly as possible? an executive transport aircraft, it would seem to me it wouldn't take eight years. So the whole reason they're doing that is to screw us. Now it could be that again because they're having to, now here's another problem, if they, because when the production line is up, reproduction of lesser components and assemblies are consistently cranked out one after another. You know, Bob's making fairing 406, Jack is making reinforced, you know, volspar assembly number 2, 3, 4, and 5, and he does so many a day, and we need so many for the aircraft that we crank them out, boy, because we're going to need to redo this however many times over for the structure of the wings or fuselage components, whatever. Well, when they discontinued the line and they've prioritized, like you said, on their newer airframes, because hell, the 777's long in the tooth now, but all of the newer Boeing's have been the priority. I'm sure they do retrofitting and rework. They should. They're plain. But in this case, they may have to be hand producing the aircraft, and if that's the case, shame on them. They should have had a better solution. You don't really want to change from the four engine design, to be quite honest, for the sake of resilience. Four is better than two, let's put it that way. In fact, four is better than three. And again, remember that most quad engine aircraft can be kept in the air, not with a whole lot of performance. They're not going to do a whole lot of jiggle jiggle. But, you know, usually the airframe is designed so that a single engine can keep the aircraft in the air or at least bring it to ground safely, which is why a quad engine would be a better choice. And, you know, switching to something else, yeah, is not good. The other part about this with the Quatar aircraft is, like you pointed out, I don't know where it is in the family tree. because many of the Arab states did buy a lot of the late model 747s. They had the money, and so they didn't buy the short body. I mean, there are some. I think Saudi Arabia runs a number of 747s. And they've also sublet they buy from, I've got a whole thing here, portfolio on 747s, it had nothing to do with this story. But it's interesting how many airlines are still maintaining their 747s because they can't find a suitable replacement. A lot of them are, go ahead. I don't think Boeing makes, I think they switch to two engines on all their past. Right, they have. No, you're right, that's what I'm saying. All of the other aircraft after the 747, in fact, even consider this, the 737, that's a jumbo jet. The 737 is a jumbo jet, but it's a twin pack. It's not a quad, you see. So this is the only way that you could, it's funny because once again, as I've repeated on the air, we seem to hit this point where our best technology comes out of the late 60s and 70s. Every so many years we either have to retrofit what's left of the equipment from that era or we reinvent it in that we actually bring it back in new production. And that's technically what they're doing here with the 747 with Boeing having to build a replacement 747 or quad engine aircraft of the type. I don't think they're going to go to another design. And they need the volume, they need the air, you know, in other words, the aircraft, the airframe, considering its special, you know, its special applications, it has onboard air defense, it has onboard support and weapon systems, it has, it's self-contained for extended flight. It was designed, the equivalent to a flying command post, so it has all of the abilities of a regular SAC type command and control center. In addition, as we pointed out, there are things that you would like to do with it. Like I said, I believe, and I don't have privy to what the design carries, but I would believe that an escape or again an infiltration pod to be able to at least evacuate the president with maybe security, one or two men, by himself might be probable But whatever it is, that would make sense that you'd have that on board. Well, that's a special accommodation, which means the airframe has to be changed out, has to be structurally reinforced or designed so that it integrates with the rest of the mission of the aircraft, etc. The other consideration is when you do open up a, open the pod bay, Hal, when you open up any surface of an aircraft and it's at performance speed, you have a bunch of issues that appear and that has to be rectified to be able to jettison something like that. And since the Air Force One could be attacked or have malfunctions at any altitude, it would be a self-contained system probably equivalent to like the F-111 escape system. The F-111, remember, the whole command deck evacuated the aircraft. When you ejected from the plane, you all ejected together and everybody was in the same pod, and it left the aircraft and then landed, you know, like a space capsule. So, I could see that that would be a high priority for the executive aircraft. But, all that is not part of the air design for all of these other planes. Unless somebody asked for that feature. And maybe the Quataris did. We don't know. It may not have like all the bells and whistles, but it might have some pretty cool stuff on board. You know what I mean? Go ahead. I'm sorry. Well, you know what? They might be pretty sturdy because it looks like most of them were in service for UPS. Oh, yeah. Remember I talked about this the other day. Yeah, all of these aircraft were built as cargo haulers. Boeing and Douglas both originally were competing with what was transitional modular design so that you open up, again, open the pod bay hell, you open up the cargo, or actually it's an access door, and it used to be you would roll the whole interior out in modules where you could push it forward, you'd disconnect it, there are a series of connectors, and then you'd roll it forward and literally push the seating system right out of the plane and then the system was already set up so it had the bucklers and everything and the platforms that would hold the cargo had the exact same keeper and connector system to lock to the airframe. That was the, that was supposed to be the big Because nobody had done anything like that in the past you either Specifically purchase cargo specific aircraft or you have commercial airliners And the ID behind this was to market to especially up-and-coming Third second and third world aircraft users and the Arab states counted for that so these planes all have Again, remember this, when you're building a plane, you don't need to build very many variants, you just have a standard variant. You apply all of the basic advanced structural engineering to enhance the aircraft for performance in general anyway. Again, the big deal here is that the aircraft is rugged. The 747, considering how big a beast and slash dinosaur it is, There isn't one that couldn't be resurrected and brought back into play. Right now there's a whole pile of them parked up there at Oscota. Remember, in fact, if you go to Google, Google Map, and pull up Oscota, Michigan, which is where they were going to bring all those FEMA containers in, if you look at the aerial view, count how many 747s are in the picture there. Is that the pictorial? Well, that airbase, well, Osco to it could run the C5A. In fact, it could handle the Anatovs also because that was a long landing and takeoff for heavy, it was designed to both be used for refueler support and would strike aircraft. So it could handle the B-36, it could handle the B-52. in its day and But it's the 747 have no problem operating there There are also some look to be either DC 10s, or I don't think they're l-1011s. I think they're DC 10s Which is the other you know remember the three big jumbo jets for the longest time competing against each other was the l-1011 the DC 10 and the 747 Boeing and The baby of the bunch was the 737 which is still considered a jumbo jet Now the 737 was a twin-engine aircraft, the odd man out of the four. And the 737 is still being produced in its counterpart. That's what basically the Chinese are building. So the Boeing gave China an upgrade to build a sophisticated prime mover tactical lift aircraft in quantity. Also, subnote on this, remember, it's a 737 that they used in the Project Conestoga experiment where they took 737s, retrofitted them in America. These were American 737s. Retrofitted them with onboard remote control flight capability, which they actually already had, but they went to digital from analog. And they flew 10 of those 737s all the way across the Pacific from Arizona to Australia unmanned and in a column. All the way across the Pacific, they landed unmanned. They were guided and controlled from the United States. And then they loaded them up after they took off all the cargo. They reloaded them up with other junk. Flew them back here to the US to prove that they could do it. All that was done just before 9-11. And those 737s are part of the Strategic Reserve Lift Command, whatever it is now, and they're still in service. In fact, a lot of the 747s or TC-10s or L-1011s, one of the reasons that they haven't cuffed them up yet, they could, and they have been doing some, even though they're not in the military, but they're considered part of the Strategic Lift Command. and they would be pressed into service immediately. You'll notice that when all of these planes 747s, DC-10s, L-1011s, and the 737s, they take off the rudders and they take off all of the control surfaces. Does everybody know why? Why did they take all of those control surfaces off the plane? What is... What is the ballast that's used inside those stabilizing surfaces? They have to have weight. Think about what that aileron or flap or stabilizer, how much force is applied to it. It's not hollow. Do you know what the inside of those flaps are made out of? Depleted uranium. They're filled with depleted uranium. The flap. The stabilizers, the ailerons, they're solid metal. They're solid, well, crappy metal, but they're solid metal and it's depleted uranium. It's the dental material they can file. Why would they do that? Because otherwise, the materials that are used to make up, for instance, the flight surfaces, they're just simply having air pass over or underneath the aircraft you have a specific amount of energy applied which creates the lift bubble. But in order for that material, the wing could not, if it was hollow, though the flaps could not operate with the amount of energy that's applied as the torque and re-demonstration, re-attitudinal position of the device. Well, it takes place. There's so many tons of pressure applied to the surface. It would literally rip the surface off of it or cavitate it and blow right through it. To prevent that, In the past before we had nuclear reactors, they used lead. Actually, these are some of the heavy... well, they've used a number of different materials. The most important thing is that you fill that dead airspace with something. But in more recent years, especially with the heavies, like the ones we're talking about, depleted uranium is what was used. This is another reason they used to kind of warn, you know, you don't want to, if you fly a lot, you don't want to sit at the back of the aircraft a lot. You want to try and move forward into the plane. And when somebody asks somebody why, it says, well, back into the aircraft's a little radioactive. You mean because of the solar rays from above? No. This is why in Lockerbie, Scotland, would Lockerbie, remember when the Lockerbie incident took place where the 747 crashed into the apartment complexes? Right? And people said, well it must have been a bomb or something. Well, several people used, radiac meters, used Geiger counters slash radiation counters, and they came up with background radiation all through the buildings in the wreckage. Well, the reason that they didn't want anybody to, you know, they don't publicize this. They don't want anybody to talk about it. I'm doing a big no-no right now. You're not supposed to know about this. But when Lockerbie took place, the people, Civil Defense came in and did what they normally do. Well, they got a radiation reading. And they very quietly told everybody just back off and not talk about that. Well, the radiation reading is that when the aircraft came in all of those all of those control surfaces ripped away from the aircraft still fairly large. You don't break up into smaller pieces too much. Depends on what they hit. But still, yeah, they had depleted uranium waste all over the place there as far as material. I surprised they wouldn't be as tungsten instead. It's too expensive. Well, it's not that it's too, okay, it's not that they couldn't use it, but which do you think is cheaper? Yeah, tungsten carbide, okay, tungsten, well, hell, even, it is a high, it's a high strategic metal best suited for other special technical means or needs because it is not one of the more common metals available. It is out there. But, depleted uranium is junk metal. That's bonded iron and scrap. What you do is... Do you think this is about nothing? I think from behind the scenes is what I... It's like I said, from behind the scenes I think there's a lot more dagger politics going on. Publicly, I wouldn't care what it was. Like I said, my attitude is I'd have pissed everybody off. Of course, we don't know what they're doing under the table and behind the scenes. But when everybody started making that noise, it's like I said, the perfect political solution would be to go, okay, wait a minute people, hold on, hold on. I know I'm the Don, and I like that plane, and I like the paint job. But guys, we're not going to take this plane for the president. We're going to take this plane and we're going to park it over here and we're going to strip it out. We're going to take it as a gift from Quicar because they're our friends and we don't want to have to shoot each other. And they like us and we like them. So we're going to take this plane, strip it out, put bench seating in it, and use it to haul out illegal aliens. And our goal is to do 3,000 to 5,000 a day. So we're going to need a plane like this. See, that's what he could have said. I was joking, but I'm not. I would have done. That's what I would have done. Be like, oh, thank you, Quatar. Great plane, big plane. Carries lots of illegal aliens out of our country when we're done. That's me. That's what I would do. Go ahead. Go ahead. Jump in there, Connor. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. They've got to strip that thing out anyway because they have to check that thing for any kind of spy devices or explosives or anything like that earlier. But they probably feel, see, here's the thing. If the fear isn't clandestine, surreptitious intelligence collection, I think the fear right now, it's why, okay, here's an example. Dan Bongino and Kash Patel each have a 25-man FBI contingent protecting them 24-7, guys. No FBI director has ever had anything like that, right? They usually have one or two henchmen, knuckle draggers with them, and that's how it works. So right now, the threat level in all categories is ultra high. Your biggest concern would be if you got something from the people you're fighting inside the US, the ones you're in contention with, it's more likely the aircraft would have built-in failure options, mechanical failure, electronic failure, structural failure. And this other aircraft, again, might be safer in general even as a go-over aircraft. Like we've been talking about. Yes, you're going to have to go over it. But it was a random dart. See, it's like, let me give you a comparative study on this. You're Obama. You know Obama had a food taster? Obama was like stinking royalty while he was in power. He had a food, a poison tester, a food tester, a guy whose job it was that when there was food brought to him, the person had to eat the food and Obama had to wait until the guy who ate the food dropped, you know, if he dropped dead or didn't. Right? Well, yes, that would be an option. Hey, Mike, why don't you take a bite of this? Mike, eat it. Yeah, Mike, eat it. He'll eat anything. Even Obama. Yeah, Mike, yeah. Yeah, he didn't die that day. But my point is that that's an example of how far the Borgia-type conditions of this regime, this government situation is. But the thing is, it's always been this way. It hasn't been this overt or plopped out into the open where all of you can see it, a percentage of it. You're not seeing all of it. But the fact that Cash Patel and Bongino both have 25 men, of what is a limited capacity security detail, okay, only so many people they can draw from and they got to have them for the president, they've got to have them for other people, and they share time. They've already told you now something we've talked about for decades. They don't have enough from the Secret Service, so they all share personnel. So you got to first of all make sure that you really could trust, you'd have to do it, you're going to find out who's who in the zoo, then you utilize that, but that demonstrates a high level threat situation. The balancing act is between the other side wanting to do you in from that direction or maybe you're under the table business partners over here being the better choice because like I've always said, Barry Satoro was terrified. Obama was terrified of his food. There was a barbecue that he went to once. Why is this important? Well, parallel. He couldn't eat anything because his food tester had not shown up with the entourage. And so he was sitting there staring at barbecue and looked like a whipped puppy because he's all licking his chops. Now my problem is this. Does anybody think that they're going to poison 500 people at a barbecue? No. So just finish them off with some kid's plate. Exactly. You go over and say, hey little girl, you know, that looks pretty good. Is that what you like to eat? Yes, Mr. President, that's what I like to eat. Well, I'll tell you what. I'd be honored if you'd let me have your plate and I'll walk through and help you get another one. And you know what? It's not likely that the little eight year old girl that you randomly picked or the little guy or the old grandma have poison food on their plate. But that's the difference. That's how paranoid, but not thinking out of the box these people are. So in the same order, guys, if I was going to go out looking for an aircraft, you don't announce anything. You walk out, you point at something and go, that's my man. That's my plane. What who what yeah secure that aircraft what do you mean? We're gonna walk it down right now. That's the plane What are we gonna do with it? Whatever we want, but you know what nobody's had time to think we were gonna grab it Well mark, there's another that's really probably that go ahead. I'm sorry go ahead So yeah, these things are made by Boeing Boeing is one of the number one parts of the military industrial complex And if we take everything at face value that Trump does not want, you know, World War III and all that, then the military industrial complex hates him. Why would they give him good money? They want him dead. Right, they want him dead. But it would be very bad. But they're willing to do this. Guys, we've had, for the first time in how many years, we had an open public assassination attempt and then a second ad hoc kind of assassination attempt, one after the other like that. so much in the public. Now I know the argument and I know we've got long time listeners that say, no, it was fake. I don't think the first one, the shooting was fake. The second one is a toss of the coin, but the same cast of characters are there which implies, as has been said over and over again, it's what we're talking about here. There are different factions and elements fighting each other right now. And that's why this whole Tempest in the teapot was created with this plate. Personally, if it was me, I'd say, Bob, come here. Yes, sir. Let's do a survey of available aircraft, 747s. And here are the specs. This particular pattern, we're looking for low hours. We're looking for something that a friendly would be willing to come off of. And you're the only person that's going to be on this. Nobody else. I just want you to casually act as go sideways, go find one of our guys in one of the airlines or industry that we know that's ours. And let's do a quick hop around to see who's got something in the used plane market. Now, you know, preferably, again, low hours and high performance. In this pattern... Oh, I got such a surprise for Will! Look what I had! See, that's the problem with Izzy. Yeah, if you do a general contract on this, Izzy Blassenstein would be right there telling you, listen, I got this. It's got, okay, it's got a lot of miles, but kick the tires. Look at the paint job. Whereas what you're looking for is, again, as Ed pointed out, they need a supplemental aircraft so that they can knock one offline that's a primary, get that rebuilt or refurbished, and then meanwhile have something else put into service. And so that's how I do it. Everything has to be throw a dart. If you make it some kind of grandiose public statement and constant whatever, the longer that it takes for you to get what's in the picture, what's in the supposed storyline, the more likely it will be sabotaged. And even if you felt it was secure, you have to put your people on it right away. Your people would not leave it for 24-7 security on the piece of equipment, whatever it is you choose. And when it comes back, it would be manned by your people, comes back here and it's under your people's control. And every step of the way, you have a complete date of birth to death certificate on the aircraft. This is stuff we've already thought. It's like the food thing with the food tester. You don't need a food tester if you randomly just grab somebody else. Say, hey, I'm the president. I'm in a hurry. Can I have your plate? Oh, Mr. President, I'd be proud to have your plate. I'm happy for you to have my plate. Here, let's take a picture with the grandma here. Look at this, you got a picture. Ma'am, we're gonna get you another meal. And I'm so I can come to the White House and have a meal with me sometime in the future. Oh, Mr. President, that'd be wonderful. You can have my dessert, too. See how that works? See how careful that is? Right. Because he has seemed too much. The chef has cooked too many little eight-year-old boys with a cannibal. That's what happened. And Michelle loves the little shank of eight-year-old boys. Yeah, Michael is a cannibal too. Okay, we're gonna get out of here for a little bit. Oh, by the way, we got straight from the building. So, hidden knowledge coming up. God bless the Republic. We shall prevail because of when the Empire is on the run. And we're on the march for a day and night. And again, guys, for everybody's sake, folks, it's Wednesday. The magazines are the few fields out there. And more ammo, no matter. You are going to pull the trigger out. Turned up a computer, got online, and I decided to write a thing that I was trying to write for a YouTube video. And I got into some research and interesting things here. Some of you may. If you like American history, we're going to go over some things that I just learned that I didn't know. I was thinking like the most of us as far as some things about history. Misconceptions and old wives' tales or whatever. I thought about a few things about a couple things that we... Our lives was one thing but turned out to be something else. So, I guess, which one should I start with? I've got two major categories here. Let me start out with the one I was working on when I, when I originally started out with Little Rabbit Hole an hour ago. I was writing a, well, let me, I guess I'll read the text of what I've come up with so far. I guess we'll do it that way. I don't, I don't really know how to approach this. For those of you who are extremely patriotic, this is meant as a kind of a spoof, so don't get your panties on a bunch like what I'm about to say here. But, because I know the right way to say it, but this is another thing about making a YouTube video. Based on things that are going on in this world today, and our history, I decided, I wrote this, and this is a rough draft here. Here we go. I pledge allegiance. to the flag of the United States of Israel and to the empire for which it stands, one nation without God, dissociable with coercion and disservice for all. I tried to keep things syllable correct. I'm going to begin. Again, don't get Japanese in a bunch here. This is just a spoof. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of Israel and to the empire for which it stands, one nation without God, dissociable with coercion and disservice for all. Okay, so obviously it's meant to be funny in a way, but unfortunately, a touch of realism in here about what's going on today because we seem to be Our real president seemed to be Benjamin Netanyahu. I think Benjamin Netanyahu says, we have to do is kind of the way it looks like to me. And for years on this channel, I've been saying, don't think of Israel as the 51st state. Think of it as the first state. And to the empire for which he stands, well, the empire, of course, this is, if you look what Donald Trump did as soon as he got into office the second time, talking about conquering Greenland and Panama and Canada, and I mean, what the hell is he doing here? One nation without God, that goes kind of without saying, dissociable with coercion and bias for all or disservice to all, either one I haven't figured out. What I wanted to do in the end there, those last little three phrases, I want to enter in, I was having trouble with making it sound right, with the words Raytheon, Northrop, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, I was going to try to integrate those and I still might do that. I don't know. Again, this is just a rough graph because our government seems to be beholden to the military contracts. And those are just some of them. But I was having trouble getting the sound right with the correct syllables because I want to match the syllables to what the original says. But the original isn't original in any case. Here's what I found out when I started doing this. Because I was surprised to see this and maybe you will be too. The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by, let me look up the full description of this man, Francis Bellamy. And he was an American Christian socialist Baptist minister and author. Whoa, socialist. That's interesting. So Francis Bami, he died in 1931, was a Christian, socialist, Baptist mister. Okay, so that's the first part of this. But here's what he wrote in his original form. This is what it read. This is how it read. I pledge allegiance to my flag and the republic for which it stands, one nation, Indivisible with liberty and justice for all. That's what he originally wrote in 1892. Now, in 1923, it was changed. Well, before I get into that, because it was changed twice since then, before I get into that, this is going to be rather interesting. Well, maybe I should read the one from 1923. Let me see. Well, which one should I do here? I'm a little disjointed here. The original pledge that Francis Bellamy wrote. began with a military salute and after reciting the words, to the flag, the arm was extended towards the flag. Okay? So imagine that. Now, in 1923, the words, the flag of the United States of America were added and this time it read, I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, One nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Now, in accompanying that, the pledge was begun with the right hand over the heart after reciting to the flag. The arm was extended towards the flag, palm down. In World War II, this loot was too much resettled, the Nazis loot, so it was changed to keep the right hand over the heart throughout. But yeah, the original A socialist who wrote it, ironically, Bellamy, he designed it to where the pledge was to right hand over the heart and after reading to the flag, the arm was extended towards the flag palm down. Ironic, isn't it? Well, so then it was changed one more time. In 1954, in response to the communist threat of the times, ironically, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words, under God, creating a 31-word pledge we say today. However, Bellamy's daughter objected to this addition, because by then Bellamy was already dead. If you didn't know this, this is section 4 of the Flag Code states, the pledge of allegiance to the flag should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart When not in uniform, men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at their left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, taste the flag, and render the military salute. So there you have it. And again, with... with possibly objectives. It's meant to be kind of funny, but kind of ironic and kind of sad at the same time. My version, because I want to make one of these really quick videos, or short videos they're called, I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of Israel and to the empire for which it stands, one nation without God, dissociable with coercion and disservice for all. I think it better fits today. So, anyway. You can get mad at me if you want, but that's something I kind of want to do, although I've been putting up very, very few. That one might, I might do that one as one of my first Rumble videos, because I don't know, YouTube has degraded me, de-ranked me so that I can't, my channel can't grow. My channel has not grown in about seven or eight years now. No increase in subscribers really whatsoever. Up and down a little bit, but it's been about the same it's been in the last seven or eight years. So I give this a try, Rumble. I hear there's less of a chance of being censored and so on, because probably if I post it on YouTube, it will continue to be ranked. I'll do, and I talked to myself on my last show here, I want to do another quick, short video. And again, maybe, maybe not for YouTube, maybe for Rumble. I don't have any videos on Rumble. I do have a channel on Rumble. I don't have any videos up yet. But I'm thinking about trying it out there. And a few of these controversial ones are the ones that I probably should put up there first. As I talked about on the last show, we defined through Oxford dictionary the very first definition. When you enter the word anti-Semitism on the internet, the first one that comes up is the Oxford definition. And it defines it as a noun and it says, quote, Hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people." That's it. Don't say anything about Israel. Don't say anything about Zionism or Zion. Don't say anything about being pro-Hamas or pro-Palace sign. Don't say anything about other stuff. Not worried about any of those. It always says, quote, hostility to or privilege... I'm sorry, not privilege, prejudice. Sorry. Quote, hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people. That's it. Don't say anything about Israel. We have the mainstream media or the legacy media, however you want to call it. They are trying to redesign words to attack you with when you say anything against Israel, Zionism, the war in Gaza or faith, or they'll call you pro-Hamas or pro-Palestinian. They call you anti-Semite, immediately. But anti-Semite doesn't mean any of those things. It only means prejudice against hostility or prejudice. against Jewish people. That's it. But we want to redefine things and cancel you. I've been seeing a lot of things happening here in the last couple of months. Trump is in a very big supporter of free speech as he would think that he's doing. Attacking colleges and so on. One of the recent ones, a college student, decided to use his, probably more like a Victorian speech, I would guess it was. I don't really know why he was speaking. And he basically with off script, lied from what he told his speech was going to be and started talking about recognizing Gaza and the genocide going on there. He responded by, I forget what university it is, responded by saying they were going to withhold his degree, his graduation, and call the FBI or something or other. History is being changed here in the United States of Israel. But I think got down another rabbit while I got down, but that was not the second rabbit. Well, that's just something, another video I want to do. I've got an idea for several videos. They're all controversial things that I may want to put on. Rundle is a first start because YouTube is trying to cancel me in a way. Then block my channel. They just cut me from growing. Whatever the algorithm does, it's been keeping me from growing. No matter how many videos I did, I wasn't growing, wasn't growing, wasn't growing. So I finally... Stop doing videos kind of I think I've probably been a year since I did my last video something like that Just because wasn't going that I don't do it for the money. I have no sponsors I have no no monetized channel got no affiliate links. I got none of that I do it just for information. I make more money whatsoever Never tried to never wanted to be a YouTube D ranks me They probably would have stopped my payments if I had payments coming in from them But never signed up for that. Never wanted to. Okay, then I got thinking, I remember the story, here's another one. Let me start this one off by, but believe it or not, I'm going to play you a song. Okay? It is called, I'm going to play you part of it, the first one minute of it I'm going to play for you. And it's called, it's an English drinking song. from the 1700s. So it's in the public domain, so no worries here. It's called To Anacryan in Heaven. That's what it's called. To Anacryan in Heaven. And hopefully it'll come out. I picked an Akaplala version. And I think you'll kind of recognize it. If I can get my phone here to, okay. Just want to make sure before I start this. Hopefully I'll be able to hear this. I picked that Capelo version because the instruments, one of the versions I heard, you can see this on YouTube, two acronym heaven. While I was listening to these other instruments which would have made it harder to hear in the format I'm speaking with you right now. So we're going to back it up to the beginning of the song here. We've got other hand-free. I'm ready to put this new speaker so you can hear it. It's the other rabbit hole I got down in. I had not heard this until about an hour ago. Here we go. To a death-rewarding heaven where he's farthing boldly was on the heart, thanks of addition, that either inspire or take from would be, when his answer arrived from the jolly old region, for it would only be my name, and it's by a yet of who I'd now entrust him. Okay, I'm going to stop it there just because that's only about half the song actually. It goes on. The first, let's see, 56, 57 seconds. You also remember that as being the star-spangled banner, right? Okay, well, this is interesting. Again, another rabbit hole I didn't notice. I probably like you. I thought Francis Scott Key was a poet and he was standing there and he saw the flag and after the battle, and there was still a flag and he wrote the poem, right? That's the myth. That's the myth. Star Spangled Banner has always been, I believe the actual name of the tune is the International Standard. There's several British songs that go to it, Irish songs, but the original was just instrumental. And I'm pretty sure the name of the instrumental piece is the International Standard. There might be another name there, but I think that's what it's actually called, the tune. Okay, well the tune I just played for you, an acronym in heaven, was popular in 1775 as a British drinking song and Francis Scott Key would have been well aware of this song. Craig, Craig, that's what I'm saying, it's like the whole, not the lyrics. Okay, I guarantee you that song is popular. There are several others that were sung to that tune, just like I'm a Yantigoodle band. Dandy, that Brits was taking to make fun of the American troops. There's another tune behind that. That has a different name altogether for the melody of the instruments than the words of the song. And there are several songs that are sung to that tune. Back in that point of time, it was very common for several songs to use the same background music. It's weird, but if you go back to American history, it was found that a lot of our founding songs are the melody from other pieces of music. At the time when Francis Keats' stock came alive, This would have been the version he would have known in being a Brit himself. That's one of several he would have known. That's one of several. For that particular melody, there were several songs that were being sung. Okay. So the version that we heard was very popular in 1775. Francis Scott Key was not a poet. Most people think he was a poet. He wasn't a poet. He intended the verses of the song to be lyrics, not poetry. It was not a poem set through melody years later. He was not a... He was an amateur poet and not a songwriter, but when he composed his verses, he intended to accompany a popular song of the day. We know he had the tune in mind. It's very obvious that he wrote it to that tune. He basically weird-out Yankovicked it. That's essentially what he did. He wrote the lyrics to a different song that was very popular in the day. The weird-out Yankovick of his time, if you will. So it wasn't even that when he wrote the sound He was a rearest. It was not like a parody because the initial song, the reason why everybody was singing to it is that the actual melody had no words behind it. That song was chosen, that melody was chosen because it was easy to sing. A lot of people already knew the melody in the tune so you could get people singing along with it even if they didn't actually know the words. And that's the actual reason for picking even the melody that we picked with the Star Spangled Banner. No, come on. There are a couple others that, you know, it was picked because the melody was known, not that the words were known, but the melody was known. And even if you didn't know the song that was being sung, you could sing the song that you knew and sound like you were part of the group. Yeah, and the original also, the original song, I only play you part of it, like I say, I only play you half of it, about half of it. It actually had five verses. The song had four verses, but he actually wrote five verses worth of text. And I have the five verses here, but unfortunately it's very wrong and it doesn't help anything. I could read them if somebody wanted to, but you could look them up yourself, find out the original, and actually added the fifth verse was added after the Civil War. So it was interesting, the history behind this. The basic idea behind it was rooted in the War of 1812 and the Battle of Baltimore. After witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry, Francis Scott Key was inspired and wrote the lyrics to it. It was later titled The Star-Spangled Banner, but the original, originally was titled Defense of Fort McHenry. That was the original title of the song, of the lyrics. It was eventually sent to music and became the national anthem of the United States in 1931, some almost hundred years later. So it's a really interesting, and I thought it was interesting to see all this, I have more things about here. So he used it, let me see, biography, words should be sung to the melody of an acronym in heaven. He was quite familiar with the tune, having used it to accompany an 1805 poem which included a reference to a star-spangled flag. He had written in honor of Barbary War naval heroes Stephen Decatur and Charles Stewart. Although he composed the patriotic lyrics amid a burst of anti-British euphoria, an acronym in heaven was ironically an English song composed in 1775 that served as the theme song for the Upper Crust And that chronomics society of London and a popular pub staple. Now, another interesting thing, let me scroll down here. Think about the flag. I did not know this either. Also, Keith, by the way, he might have, could be considered a one-hit wonder, but he was also basically tone deaf, according to people who knew him. Let's see. Trying to find the part about the flag. Basically, I'll find it as I go along here. The version of the Star Spangled Banner traditionally sung on patriotic occasions and at sporting events is only the song's first verse. All four verses conclude with the same line, or the land of the free and the home of the brave, which I guess you can change today, the land of the fee and home of the slave. In 1861, poet Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote a fifth verse to support the Union cause of the Civil War and denounced, quote, the traitor that dares to defile the flag of her stars, end of quote. And by the way, the key was a slave owner. While he advocated for some enslaved people seeking freedom, Key too owned slaves. He hailed from a large slave-owning family and often helped slave owners recapture their escaped slaves. Despite this, he opposed slave trafficking and became one of the founders of the American Colonization Society which ships thousands of free black people to Africa to establish a homeland there. So even though he owns slaves and he kind of started repenting later. Okay, here's the part about the flag. I didn't know this. It's very strange to me. In addition, okay, the part about The flag hailed at the twilight's last gleaming. The flag did not fly throughout Perot's flight. There was a thunderstorm. In addition to a thunderstorm and of bombs, the torrent of rain fell on Fort McHenry throughout the night of the Battle of Baltimore. The fort's 30 foot by 42 foot garrison flag, 30 foot by 42 foot, that's like three stories tall, was so massive. that required 11 men to hoist when dry. And if water logged, the wooden banner could have weighed upwards of 500 pounds and snapped the flagpole. So, as the rain poured down, a smaller storm flag that measured 17 feet by 25 feet was raised and flew in its place. Then in the morning, they took down the flag, the smaller storm flag. And Hoist is the bigger one, again. And that's the flag that Key saw in the morning. So the original flag was swapped. Because it was too big and too heavy to even be held up by the flagpole, apparently. It got wet. It was a 500-pound flag when wet. Wow. Okay. Let's see what else here. Interesting. Got a bunch of facts here about this. Key was the, let's see. When the song was originally entitled Star-Spangled Banner, when Keyes sprawled his lyrics on the back of a letter he pulled from his pocket on the morning of September 14th, he did not give them any title. Within a week, Keyes verses were printed on broadsides in a Baltimore newspaper under the title of defensive Fort McHenry. In November, a Baltimore music store printed the lyrics of the patriotic song with sheet music for the first time under a more lyrical title of the Star-Spangled Banner. So he did not give it that title. It did not become a national anthem until more than a century after it was written. Along with Hale, Columbia, and Yankee Doodle, the Star-Spangled Banner was among the prevalent patriotic heirs in the aftermath of the War of 1812 during the Civil War. Oh, sorry, during the Civil War, the Star-Spangled Banner was an anthem for Union troops, and the song increased in popularity in the ensuing decades. which led President Woodrow Wilson signing an executive order in 1916 designating it as a national anthem for the United States for all military ceremonies. On March 3, 1931, after 40 previous attempts failed, the measure passed Congress and was signed into law that formally designated the Star-Sangled Banner as a national anthem to the United States. So it wasn't until 1931, 100 years after it was written, basically. that it finally became a national anthem. And actually, he actually opposed the American entry in the War of 1812. He was adamantly opposed to the conflict at its outset. He referred to the war as abominable and lump of wickedness. However, his opposition to the war softened after British began to raid nearby Chesapeake Bay communities. In 1813 and 1814, he briefly served in a Georgetown wartime militia. Let's see, what else here? This part I didn't know either. He was not imprisoned on a British warship when he penned his verses. In his capacity as a Washington, D.C. lawyer, Key had been dispatched by President James Madison on a mission to Baltimore to negotiate for the release of Dr. William Beams, a prominent surgeon captured at the Battle of Bladensburg. Accompanied by John Stuart Skinner, a fellow lawyer working for the State Department, Key set sail on an American snoop in Baltimore Harbor on September 7th. The pair boarded the British ship Taunnet. where they died and secured the prisoners released under one condition. They could not go ashore until after the British attacked Baltimore. Accompanied by British Guards on September 10th, he returned to the American Slope from which he witnessed the bombardment behind a 50 British ship fleet. So anyway, those are the two rabbit holes I went down today. And I guess, I could have looked up if I had time. I'm curious as to where you got the information from. Several places here. Let's see here. One of them is, well, Google started off with it, but then it took me to a page on the History Channel. Then it took me to, where is the other one goes? I'm going to say, American History, that I remember, heard him from Rebecca Brooks. Yes, he went out there on the flip. No, he was not a prisoner. They would not let them back to their own ship even before the siege was over. So he was on board the prison ship and the whole exchange about where the flag was was the agreement with the British on how the port was to surrender. That if they were going to surrender the British rule, all they had to do was lower the flag and keep the flag lowered. But they kept raising the flag back up even though they took it down. For the storm, it was also, the flagpole was also hit by cannonball like I think seven or eight times throughout the night and they kept repairing it and even had people holding it up into the morning physically. That's from the account from the from the port. But pretty much the stat key is kept going back and forth between the prison hold and the deck of the ship to tell the prisoners where the flag set. that they didn't let him back on the slip until the morning after. So he wasn't technically a prisoner, but he wasn't allowed to leave the ship. Right. The other source I got it from was the smithsouianamericanhistory.si.edu. And there's also another site where I got the five verses of the Star Spangled Banner. original five verses, which I read and they don't really make old English, sometimes it's difficult to make sense of it the way that it was written. It didn't see that in the song, to the verses to me. But it's there and it's again a copy of that traditional song. And if I had more time, I probably could have, and maybe Ed knows. You know some of the history behind, let me see where I'd read this earlier. Hail Columbia and Yankee Doodle. Apparently there's much more of a history behind those which I do not know. In fact, I'm trying to think off the top of my head, the song Hail Columbia. I don't even know. I know some of that. I can't remember the original song that it was named after, but the original song that it was made out of. Now that one, that one you could say was Weirdar Yankovic, but it wasn't done by the American people. It was Weirdar Yankovic by the British soldiers to make fun of the colonists, and the colonists turned it around and sang it as like a badge of pride. Oh, okay. I'm a Yankee Doodle with Andy Stuck of Macaroni. That was all supposed to be insulting and demeaning. Macaroni is supposed to be some type of flare that the British aristocrats used to stick in their hat. and basically making fun of the yokels here in America, you know, dressing up with using what they had on hand to make themselves more presentable. Okay, good. That makes sense. Even the title of the title is called What Might Be A Sur, thank you, you do. So that's interesting. Like I said, I didn't have time to investigate that one myself. I did not know that story. And I don't even... Do you know the song of Alecandia? I know there's something there in the back of my mind, but I can't talk that one off. I can't pick it. Yeah, by the way, it's another patriotic song in American history, but I don't know it off top of my head either. Maybe I have heard it, but I don't know it off top of my head by the title. Well, here's something. If you have older hens, like the... Star Spangled Banner's that tune there were a lot of Older Hymn books from that era that use that tune to sing Hymns like just trip songs of course you had the ones that was popular you had ones that were popular that people fun in the bar you had ones that were popular that that like I said that tune our national anthem that tune was just all older It was a public domain dog that everybody would seek attention to. 1789 and 1931. So in other words, this one precedes supposedly the Star Spangled Banner because in 1930, I think it was 1931 when the official one became the Star Spangled Banner. So I'm going to play this, which would also be in the public domain. I'm going to play this and see if we can get a better one as a recognizer. Here we go. Okay, well, I'll stop it about halfway. Do you recognize it, Ed? I do not. I recognize it, but I don't recognize it from where I know that the historical significance of that But Saturday morning cartoons would use that to make fun of I think Because I'm Looney Tunes a couple of times the donor bud You mean Yankee Doodle, right? No, the one you were just playing. Oh, okay. Yeah I know what you I knew it was using cartoons for a bit But, uh... Hail Columbia. Yeah, I don't know the source on that one. Other than that, like, I'm sure there's history behind that song. The original source of the tune of Hail Columbia is Philip Philly's work, The President's March, in 1798. In 1798, Joseph Hopkinson rearranged and wrote new lyrics to the President's March, written and performed at George Washington's inauguration for the song, Hail to Columbia. Hail to Columbia was one of the unofficial national anthems of America until the Star Spangled Banner was named so in 1931. I'm just getting this right off the top here. And actually, when the song was playing, I'm sure you couldn't hardly understand when it was sung in operatic like that. It's kind of hard to hear what you're actually saying. But I have the lyrics here, which I will read some because it actually makes more sense than some of the additional verses of the Sarfangal Band that I was reading later that I didn't read you out loud here. Here's how the lyrics go. Hail, Columbia, happy land. Hail ye heroes, heaven-born band. who fought and bled in freedom's cause, who fought and bled in freedom's cause, and when the storm of war was gone, enjoyed the peace your valor won, let in the penance be your boast, be our boast, ever mindful what it cost, ever grateful for the prize, let its altar reach the skies, and the chorus go on. I'm just going to say something. And we have scholars that say America wasn't founded by Christianity. Just listening to the lyrics of the lyrics that you're reading out there speaks contrary to that, doesn't it? And here's more of it. From United, let us be, routing around our liberty, as a band of brothers joined, peace and safety we shall find, Immoral patriots rise once more. Defend your rights, defend your shore. Let no rude foe with impious hand, and I'm not familiar with the word unfortunately, let no rude foe with impious hand, an old word that probably doesn't use today, invade the shrine where sacred lies, obtain blood, the well-earned prize. For offer peace sincere and just, in Heavens replace a manly trust. The truth and justice will prevail, and every scheme of bondage fail. Continuing. There's quite a bit here. This is pretty patriotic. Continuing. From United let us be rallying around our liberty. This is repeating us, of course. and the band of brothers join, peace and safety we shall find. Behold the chiefs who now commands one more to serve his country's stands. The rock on which the storm will break, the rock on which the storm will break. When armed in virtue, firm and true, his hopes are fixed on heaven and you. When hope was sinking in this May, when grooms observed Columbia's day, his steady mind from changes free resolved on death or liberty. And the chorus continuing here, From United let us be rallying around our liberty as a band of brothers join peace and safety we shall find. Sound, sound the trump of fame. Let Washington's great fame ring through the world with loud applause. Ring through the world with loud applause. I'm repeating those because that's how the lyrics are shown. Let every climb to freedom veer, listen with a joyful ear. With equal skill, with godlike power, he governs in the fear, fearful hour, of horrid war or guides with ease, the happier time of honest peace. And of course, firm, united, let us be, reallying around our liberty as a band of brothers, join peace and safety we shall find. And that's the source of that is the Library of Congress. That reminds me that after I had not heard the song and I had not read these lyrics, but what this reminds me of, quite frankly, is your father, Mark Honky's introduction to his little poem that he plays with the start of his I don't know what it's called, but the poem he plays at the start of his show. But that's what they kind of remind me of. It kind of reminded me of it. Real quick, the poem that Dad has us play at the beginning of every program is a desert from the past. It's a poem written by a Vietnam vet named Phalen Paul. He is from Battle Creek, Michigan. Okay, I do remember that now. The poem that is read is the music that is played though. was put together by an Arizona State Trooper. And the Arizona State Trooper is his voice that you hear reading visitors from the past, and it's music that he picked. But the poem itself is by Thaywin Polk, and again, he's a Vietnam vet. He is from Battle Creek, Michigan. Has your dad ever interviewed him or had him on the air? Thaywin, I don't know if we ever had him on the air before he passed. Oh, he did pass, okay. As far as I know, they would both passed away, but I could be wrong. I think the Arizona state trooper, I'm pretty sure his name was Dave Manon. I'm not sure if he still alive either. Okay, so for anybody who wants to look that up, the one we were just talking about is called Hail Columbia, the unofficial math lesson between 1789 and 1931. So there could have been a national anthem. Boy, there's a lot of words there trying to remember to recite all that. But of course, the Star Spangled Banner had a whole lot of words too, of which we only used the first verse. So I guess it would have been just as hard to remember this one unless they just used the first verse or just went through the chorus if we were to use this. I would have used this song as our national anthem, our official anthem. And also if you want to look up again going backwards to the Star Spangled Banner version of the song, the original tune, or one of the original tunes, as Ed points out, it might not be the original. It's called An acronym in Heaven. And to dispel that, A-N-A-C-R-E-O-N. An acronym, I guess is how you say it. to an acronym in heaven. It almost sounds like I'm saying to, an, and an acronym. No, an acronym is one word. A-N-A-C-R-E-O-N. So, to an acronym in heaven, if you want to look that up. There's a whole bunch of different versions on YouTube. The one I picked out was an acapella version since that's the way we usually do the Ashlandtham, or the, I'm sorry, the Star Spangled Banner. Usually we do it to, Just an acapella version. But there's music to go along with that. Which is very similar to that song and that tune and acronym in heaven. Anybody else want to comment? That's what I got tonight. Anybody else want to comment about any of that? We have a little bit of history here today. Most of it unknown to me, the stuff that I went through here today. I've always considered myself fairly patriotic, but there's still a lot of things to learn. You're the first to admit that I don't know everything. And I did not know the story behind Yagi Doodle. Yeah, I'm going to come up because you mentioned Visitor from the Past. There is a poetry book put out by Fabian Paul. Visitor from the Past is one of several of his works. Dad recorded quite a few himself. I play one of them, which is Ropes of Treason, which is one that we dug up that Dad did a while, get a reading of a while ago. which we've been playing on between the breaks, between the programs. There's a whole collection of stuff like that. All over, you'd be surprised how much American history worked, because Pham Phuong was actually a pretty big poet from the Vietnam War. When he came out of service, a lot of people knew who he was. But it's been forgotten, like the stuff we're talking about with the Star-Swingle banner. There's history there that is like, we don't teach American history. So there's stuff that's like left on the wayside. You know, it's easy to pick it up. I would recommend if you're interested in American history though. If you're into homeschooling, and even if you're not, if you just want to know more about American history, I would look up the Abeka history books for homeschooling. Look up Abeka schools, Abeka history, American history. They have letters from George Washington in those books, back and forth between Congress. So you're not just like reading about what somebody says that, you know, was corresponded between you're reading the letters. Yeah, it's part of the history lesson that they give you. It's very interesting works that they did. And here's, I just looked up also Ed since we were talking about Ankydoodle. I didn't look up the history of the song. What I've got here is the actual lyrics to the song. I'm going to go ahead and read those and I'm sure I can finish it before it's up here. And keep in mind what Ed said about basically being a I guess to regulars, unless militia. No, not regulars. The colonists. There were no regulars at the time. There was only militia and there was only the colonists. It was done to insult the militias or quote unquote the rebel rousers. Okay, and keeping that in mind in context so the lyrics do make more sense now even though I've known I've heard this song of course and then we I think we used to sing it as a kid somewhere I don't know where but maybe in school even The lyrics make more sense in the context that Ed says here so here goes Yankee Doodle went to town riding on a pony Suck a feather in his cap who called it macaroni Yankee Doodle keep it up Yankee Doodle Dandy Mind the music and the step and with the girls be handy Father and I went down to camp along with Captain Gooding There we saw the men and boys as thick as hasty pudding Yankee Doodle keep it up Yankee Doodle Danny mind the music and the step and with the girls be handy There was Captain Washington upon a slapping stallion giving orders to his men, I guess there was a million. Yankee Doodle keep it up, Yankee Doodle Danny, mind the music and the step with the girls be handy. Last verse. Then the feathers on his hat, they looked so verified. Oh, I wanted desperately to get, to keep my Jeremiah, no, to give my Jeremiah. You're hearing code. You're using words. And they're words that most people would know. They're sending them out of time and out of context. You gotta go to the definition of the time to understand the insults and what they're saying. And I didn't say it either. Yeah, it's been a long time since I did it, but I know macaroni, macaroni is like, it's a decoration in the hats of nobles over in England. I can't remember what it was supposed to be, but they're making fun of the colonists trying to dress up in make themselves presentable. Like, no. And Jeremiah, again, I'd have to pull up a dictionary for the period. Well, and actually I'm not even going to try to wing that one. Well, I must pronounce it anyway, because I'm looking at Jeremiah. It's not Jeremiah, it's actually Jemima. So that might be reference to slaves or something. I don't know. Jemima. That's what the lyrics here told me in front of me. And this is from americanenglish.state.gov. So that's from a state-sponsored website. Let me remind you, that is supposed to be in the public domain. That's supposed to be yours to use, just like Lowell. All the heraldry and everything with our armed forces were supposed to be able to use it to celebrate and honor our armed forces. And I think it was during Obama's administration they tried to copyright all that stuff, make it illegal for you to use the Marine Corps anthem and all the other heraldry that goes with it, the Army, the Navy, the Marines. So yeah, that's something that they've tried. They've tried it in the past. It kind of failed and felt flat, but it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to do it again. You know, because then they can use that as a strike against you for, you know, using those patriotic words, words that we don't intend. I know it's historically there's a few things in here that, uh, it's going to be reference to Captain Washington. So at the time, of course, he was not president. And then also mentioning... Well, here's the thing, there are different versions of the song. The colonists did alter it. So you might be listening to the versions of the song that are side-sum, or you might be reading the version that the Brits sing because there are two different versions of Yankee Doodle Band, either out there from the period. We also mentioned Captain Gooding. And I don't recall... Do you know who the Gooding is supposed to be? Who this are? Well, the captain of Washington, so Captain Gooding. I don't know. Then the reference to Jemima. The first thing is something we don't see anymore. The word Jemima, in fact, I think they've basically changed the syrup. They're going on to that Jemima. And I think that got canceled many years ago. Hi, a lot of men, thank you for listening. It's been a bit of history today. And for that time, hopefully I'll see you with the weather's ready like it is now. I'll be able to do a show again. Thanks for listening. So long. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they can burn down churches and see and they farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores. And send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear? Both sons of the Republic arise. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of Plan. Preserve our great Republican each God given right. Pray to God as I awoke he'd vanished in the mist, but his words were true. I'm 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. Stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep. What would be your answer? He called out from the grave. Planes of hesitation lie the blackened bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory, set down to rest and resting died. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the third hour of the intelligence report. I am our kirky. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines, in occupied territories, North, South, Southeast, and Northwest. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on shortwave WBCQ, the planet, 6.160 regular shortwave WBCQ, the planet, 8 to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday. And we're also on satellite with individuals who both listen and then rebroadcast analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside And outside these United States, and it is Weapons Wednesday. It is the last day of the first three weeks of May. It is the 21st of May. It is the 17th year of Open, obvious. And absolutely in your face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K2025 older calendar damage him I'm a doctor not a brickman and 2025 battle for the Republic book 3 a dark anniversary certainly will be for the other side so it has been a rainy talk about dark it's been a blah rainy day here in Michigan but Thank you, Lord. The moisture, of course, is kicking in the plants, and the growing season has begun. I've almost got almost, not quite, almost have my first jalapeno pepper. It's actually a holdover from the plants. As I said in a little experiment, we put them in the basement during the winter. I will have the first fruit of this year's growing season and it will be a jalapeno, it will be a jalapeno pepper. Pretty good breed actually. These plants I grew from seeds. They're very hardy. Not that there are, I don't think there are very many jalapeno plants that aren't hardy because of the environment where they come from. Pretty harsh, typically in the areas where they're normally grown. And good strong breed, but again, my purpose is to see how much overlapping production because we need it sooner rather than later. And this is looking pretty good, so I'm happy with the results. Everything that we kept over for the season. It's already kicking in as soon as it gets that wonderful water, that ozone moisture from the sky hitting it. Man, it just takes right off and that's what's happening with the rest of the plants out there. So everything's been moved outside. Everything's getting rained on and nature take its course. Doing all the work for us. So again, food is a weapon. It's Weapons Wednesday. Now, get your pen and paper out because there are a number of things you do want to go check out today. Number one, Thomas Massey for President, Thomas Massey for President, Thomas Massey for President. Again, Thomas Massey for President. Let's kind of throw that all over the place and start talking about that and giving him a thumbs up, double plus good. What do you say? Let's have some fun. Mess with the bad guys on the other side and see how they respond to that. I know they won't respond well, but again, that's the whole idea. So Thomas Massey for president. Anyway, number one, not just weapons, the ability to carry out the mission by being able to blend in with the environment. camofabricdepot.com. Camofabricdepot.com. camofabricdepot.com They've got a 20% off for the next up and coming holiday and they have an excellent selection over in the clearance section. Now they do have quite a few different camouflages, so if you're looking for a particular pattern, you probably have it. But you can also call them to see what's available or what quantity is. Maybe you want to clear out a whole roll, a whole bolt of material. We have been going through quite a bit with the different purchasing angles we have on this. But camofabricdepot.com. Now one of the things they've got is 500 Tenere Cordura Nylon. This is the Cryptek Obscura Knox. Kind of interesting pattern. There's two of them. They've got the Cryptec Obscura Knox and also the Obscura Skyfolds in the clearance section. The Nightfall has the same sum, not all, but most of the color ranging of Tiger Stripe. But it's not a Tiger Stripe. It is a, again, Cryptec slash It is an oil splotch pattern, similar to the stuff that they made in Afghanistan that caught on about 10 years ago. It's been that long. There's a few examples of the pattern out there. Well, KripTech has their version or their idea with more unique pattern to it. And the KripTech Skyfall is with a gray range and brown range of colors. If you want to go check this out, certain places where this particular camouflage would work really well, it doesn't work necessarily everywhere. It would make a good night camouflage obviously because it creates voids when you're looking at it with any kind of electronic technology where it has a black overlay through the whole thing. But there's a lot of other stuff there. It's not the only item, but you might want to check that out. It's an interesting pattern, and certain people I know that are listening might like it. There are also other conventional patterns. You have the ATAC patterns there. And in the clearance section, there's a pretty good selection. If you are looking for materials for helmet covers for instance if you've got the real tree or any of the traditional timber type camouflage patterns you need material for making camouflage helmet covers or other covers there's a couple of decent solutions there for as little as about $4.99 a yard and then figure 20% off, oh you can't beat that. That's why this is the time to take advantage. I have two bowls of material that we already picked up that are part of our sweat shop project that are being used to work on a new assault smock pattern that we've got. In fact, if we can get more of the camo, great, but the idea is to also practice what we preach, actually build what we want. So that's something that's in motion right now. Also, over at, again, AIMSurplus.com, they have a whole bunch of PPU, unique calibers that came in. And as I've told you, once a year at least, they do a whole bunch of unique pistol calibers. But they also did other rifle calibers. You don't need to go check it out. Too numerous to mention here. I don't have the time for that with the hour we have. But over at AIM Surplus and then it's the PPU Inventory, Preview Partisan. And again, great ammunition, boxer prime, non-corrosive, as needed, heat annealed. And it is definitely a perfect solution. Yes, they do have 7.6 Q by 39. They have 5.4 5 by 39. But they have a lot of the other orphan military or standard military chamberings. And in the pistol they have a lot of the older, smaller calibers for a lot of your grandpa guns that are out there. We don't want them to not be usable. At least grab a couple boxes. A hundred rounds means you can go pop, pop at somebody if you need to. And then maybe pop, pop again. Little pocket pistols come in handy sometimes. Aim for the crotch or aim for the face. Take your pick. But anyway, Ainsurplus.com. Also, again, with the AKs, if you want to get a feel for what I've been talking about, the AK rifle is out there in good form. Atlantic Firearms has a whole new selection. They've added to the inventory recently. If you want to just get a, what is it, no furniture AK rifle in whatever AKM, AK-47, whatever variant, doesn't make any difference. They have it. But the big thing is that you can cut the price down a little bit and there's all kinds of different options for stocks, pistol grips, fore grips, etc. So the idea here is that you can build up the pattern that you prefer. So check them out, that's over Atlantic Firearms. And then needless to say, ApexGunParts.com and some of the other parts companies out there, a lot of the spares that you need. And they've also been making some really good deals on barrels. We talked about that last week. Barrels, and it is a high priority. So especially if you're doing AKs or if you're building, if you're doing the forging, it's not Lego block construction when it's the AK. It's not like the AR-15. The AR-15 is a very user-friendly rifle to build. That's why I've been promoting it because it's the niche rifle for the moment and the cost is far less. than any of the other weapons out there right now, which is why we need to be building everyone we possibly can. And everybody needs to have at least one, preferably more. At the very least one lower and a whole bunch of upper receivers in different chamberings, so that one way or another while you're in the fight, you can't run out of ammo because you can keep switching out from one to the other to the other. But one way or another, you can keep going pew pew with the rifle or bang, depending upon the chambering. And again, Delta Team Tactical, Delta Team Tactical, right now CDNN Sports has got some really good deals going on too. AR-15 Discounts, AR-15 Discounts, Montana AR-15, Montana AR-15, yes, Center Fire Systems, in fact CenterFireSystems.com has a whole bunch of stuff that I haven't seen over there in spare parts. I also mentioned AIM surplus for PPU. Well, one of the niche products that AIM surplus has been good for for more than a couple of decades now is that they have their own line of bolt carriers. including the specialized metal produced, you know, the different like nickel boron, etc. Go take a look at what they got. Too numerous for me to talk about now, but that's a written aim surplus. You cherry pick from all these people like, again, Bear Creek Arsenal, Bear Creek Arsenal, and Palmetto State Armory dot com, Palmetto State Armory dot com, and you can put a gun together for about $250. If you're careful, you pay attention and go bare minimum. In other words, the basic components, you'd be amazed. And if you're studious, you'll see what I'm talking about. In fact, do a little, just have some fun. Do that as a side project. Ignore the YouTube for a bit. And just go through and take those sites and use them and keep a little score sheet off to the side. Where can I build it? Where can I buy the cheapest parts to build the least expensive AR-15? Also, probably the lightest in the process too, which is really critical. Anyway, next. We were talking about, of course we get into a long conversation about the free plane. They've taken the plane. The donut of destruction has the free 747 from overseas. Again, there's a lot of speculation, but what it does come down to is, either way, you're going to have to go through it every nut and bolt. Would you trust Boeing? I wouldn't trust Boeing to build anything for me. especially since people that are in association with the people that are in Boeing try to kill me if you were Trump. So again, there is a dagger war going on between the two different Jewish factions that are trying to manipulate and overlord America. Because this is happening, it is a dangerous time for certain people. This is why they are taking the costumes. And they will continue to do so because this battle isn't going to be over real quick and the fight that they have pointed at us is going to be even worse. So we need to be ready for what it is they're going to throw at us and how they're going to try to screw us. We know that it's going to be quite extensive because there's nothing surprising about what they're doing. And there's nothing they're going to surprise us with. The big thing is that we be prepared to deal with taking care of our own because, well, they feel they do the same thing. They're going to take care of their own first. We got to take care of ours. Organize, Arm, Equip, and Train as Militia. Establish a 5-10 program in your area of operations. Logistics, the key to victory. Now, one of the things that we kind of went back and forth on is tactical support systems. There's been a big discussion about this. There are a number of really great authors out there that have done really good work. that demonstrating how well a lot of the tactical gear works that's out there on the market. Now, one of the things that changes, this is like, you know, Mark, you were telling everybody to get an S-KS. I would still say if you can afford an S-KS, it's a beautiful rifle. It's not as affordable as it was in the past, but it is still a very fine carbine, exactly. You know, what it was built to do, it does. But at this point the AR-15 is the gladeous, as I've said many times of the day. This means that your tactical gear has to match up to that system. Like rifles, like surplus weapons, or like production weapons, where at a certain point like the AR-15, there are so many companies that have perfected or at the zenith of their production, to the point where we have the cheapest AR-15s we could possibly buy right now. and they're very serviceable. Okay? Well, the same is true with surplus in gear, the technology to support the weapon that you're going to be carrying. There's a glut on the market of certain types of materials and camouflage, etc., because it's not as popular. It wasn't as successful. It never was as successful as they claimed it was going to be, and one of those is ACU. But, ACU is a drug on the market. It is the most affordable pattern that you could possibly invest in. It can be over died. You can use it as is depending on the area and condition that you're in. Most important is that every possible pouch and carrying option needed is available and they are just, it's stupid cheap right now. It makes it the most logical solution for a lot of what needs to be done. Most important is you've got to have a system to carry the munitions that you're taking into the field to support the weapon system you've committed to. And if it's the AR-15 slash the M16 type weapon, then any of the Mali systems are built around that idea. There are pouches to support other weapons that are perfectly suited for that purpose. If you have another weapon but you're hoping maybe to take advantage of the inexpensive wave of materials out there, you can do so. You just have to figure out what fits the weapon system that you are committed to. And that takes a little bit. You got to do a little research and a little experimentation. Certain pouches aren't really useful for you if your weapon doesn't utilize an AR-15 type or an AR-15 sized magazine. So you have to re-engineer your carry system accordingly. But ACU is the least expensive. Second runner-up is the Coyote Brown, which is out there in force. And again, it's a desert brown or, again, foliage color that is actually much more universally suitable, say, over the ACU, which was supposed to be a universal camouflage pattern. But most important is for the least amount of money spent, you have a very effective combat support system for whatever weapon, for the weapon you've chosen, the air, let's say the air-15. There are mag pouches, there are canteen covers, every type of magazine pouch for whatever size weapon you're carrying from pistols to submachine gun pouches, etc., which by the way, if you have a Glock or if you have one of the carbines that takes a Glock or the SIG mags that are 32 or 33 or 31 rounds, depending on what chambering you have. Amazingly enough, the submachine gun mag pouches are perfect for those 32-round magazines that everybody's accumulating. You need a system that's not going to let things just flop around if at all possible. It doesn't mean you can't do that. Different militaries have used the concept or a similar idea, just a universal pouch for everything in the past, but most notoriously. But the equipment that we have right now is perfectly suited to the systems that everybody is committed to. So the big thing here, again, just as I said a minute ago, is cherry pick between the system and you'd be amazed. at how much of an economically reasonable solution you can come up with and outfit everybody 100%. Everything that that person, including yourself, obviously would need to be able to function in the field with the weapon of choice would be set your fingertips. The rifleman kits are the most common one-shop stopping arrangement that's out there, but they're not the only solution. There are others. And you can buy pieces and components. Molly is very comfortable. There's been more done to create padding to not gall the operator, which is not a critical issue for certain people. But again, it's a comfortable rig. It's a simple system to understand. Once it's connected, it stays where it's supposed to. This is a good thing. In other words, once you connect everything the way it's your instructed to do so. The system will come together appropriately and will serve you quite well. So again, the MOLLE solution for the time being is the least expensive. We still have a bunch of ALIS equipment. An ALIS gear, I've been buying a very, very large amount of ALIS gear. We've got certain points or watering holes that we're using right now until they dry up. And we're going to clear them out, probably the only thing they've got. We have ALIS, we have the older TA system, TA90 system, and then the M1956 gear, all of that integrated in one way or another. But the big thing here again is, know what it is. Invest in it, know what it does, how it works, and set it up so it works for you. Now, one thing I haven't reinforced in a little bit is when you do put combat kits together, I know everybody says everything has to be in a particular place, but there's a little bit of variance in where how close things should be. What you want to do is put the basic rig on, connect it the way it's supposed to be, and then try to reach for things and see if you need to adjust and compress or move things a little bit so that it fits you. We're not looking for pretty, although pretty is not really relevant with tactical gear, but tactical people expect certain lines. I ran into this last night and something I was listening to, and it reinforced something I've talked about for quite a while. So I'll bring that up again in a minute. But most important is that it has to work for you. You have to make it fit. Don't assume that. I've got to make it square away this way because he said, this is how you should look. Well, look isn't the issue. Function is the issue. So don't forget that. Again, that tactical doesn't do you any good if you aren't able to operate to the best of your ability with the rig that you put together, combined with the operation of your weapon. So anyway, one of the things here is uniformity. That's something I heard somebody talking about how, well, you know, the goofy militia is here mix and match and you know, they're not, you didn't have, you know, they got, you know, different camouflage combinations, you know, like each guy's like, you know, kind of off and it's like, that doesn't make any sense. I mean, first of all, we're militia, but again, I Parade ground uniformity versus field operations are always two different worlds. The theatrical version of what you see versus the real version of what happened. I've had this conversation and it's been reinforced with the bullshit, the worthless garbage that makes up AI. And other, again, theatrical presentations which, of course, are for the purpose mostly of recruitment for the military. The fact of the matter is equipment, again, as it becomes available, will be used because of wear, tear, battlefield destruction, any number of different issues with lack of supply. What a fighting unit looks like in the field versus its table of authorized equipment in a parade ground are two totally different worlds. However, I will point out if you want to have, at least right from the get go, where you can have pretty well squared away. I brought up a company earlier today, I think we mentioned it yesterday, I know I did, Rap4.com has got a bunch of clearance sales going on, Rap4.com, www.rap, the numeral four, What do they have? Well, they've got all kinds of paintball support in tactical gear. Look at their tactical gear section, put tactical gear clearance as the search, and a, or clearance, space tactical gear. Either way, it'll get you a listing of all of the clearance items. You have, it's a very tedious scroll. There are a lot of items in there. The discount is about 60%, 75%, or 80%, depending on the item. Mostly it's 75% to 80%. And we're talking a couple, $3 for a pouch, or $5, $6 for a pocket, or larger pouch, or larger satchel-type size item. But we're talking mixed mag pouches, et cetera, in a multiple number of different camouflage patterns. This is typical for the paintball and also what used to be with the airsoft companies that were doing tactical gear. They were offering a variety of multinational camouflages. The advantage here, if you are into tactical uniform, which you can be, in this case you can afford to be, DPM camo, fleck turn camo, tiger stripe, a lot of tiger stripe, and other patterns, even Australian, is available. Desert pattern, woodland pattern. Now some of it is running down. Now remember this is clearance. The bathtub cork has been pulled. The bathtub is draining. But if you go through there you will find a lot of useful items. And especially if some of you have unique technology, you might want to consider going to www.rat4.com because there's certain pockets and pouches. and tank pouches especially that might fit the special tech where you can't find anything else that would actually work. Something to think about. Well, we're at the bottom of the hour. Something to think about is this is we are at the bottom of the hour. It is Weapons Wednesday. And on Weapons Wednesday, there's one thing we do at the bottom of the hour. This is my right. That everyone is mine. Before. In our valley stairs, danger, and there's danger in our hills. Oh, here you're not the thing in all the views of wild and free. Well soon you'll know so from the trees. Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle. In our hands, oh, the rifle. Try to goodly speak, you may know it's a turn of laughter. You forward march with speed, but you'll learn the back-sputch master when you meet our mountain boys. And their leader, John, starts glad to make what little noise, and always hit the mark. Oh, the rifle. Oh the rifle, in our hands will prove no strife over. He no grave at home, back across the dry water. A hitty must come, as well as a tooth's slaughter. But it's way the job must do, and sooner it is begun. If the flintons figure only but true, the quicker it will be done. Oh the rifle, oh the rifle, in our hands will prove no strife over. Oh the rifle, oh the rifle, in our hands will prove no strife over. Aim low, go slow. Hits count, misses don't. You're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. We're on WBCQ, the planet, 6.160, regular shortwave, WBCQ, the planet, and that is from 8 to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday. And we want to say thank you for WBCQ carrying us. And let's see, let's throw another couple of music moments in there. How about, Keep Your Rifle By Your Side? It's still the most apropos. Oh, that's French. Ah, yes.

This is Weapons Wednesday. And I'll tell you what, one more piece. I can fit another one in there. Riding a raid for all of my second raider members and for all of my friends. Some of them have been with me for a very, very long time. Decades. We've got a lot of work to do. Last weekend was a great FTX. It was a small unit operational hootari exercise that we were part of. And we do have a second raider, much larger FTX, coming up this next weekend. Probably going to be rainy. We're going to be riding a raid. Here we go. We are mounting. Thank you, Edward. And for everybody out there, riding a raid for a second raider. This weekend coming up, it will start Friday afternoon. We won't be finished till Sunday evening. It'll be a very busy, busy weekend. We still have all the other logistics issues and other problems that we're dealing with up here this end of the state. And again, it's going to be, like I said, a nonstop work weekend coming up. It's Wednesday. It's not that far away now. Also, again, a reminder. With regard to all of our friends who have SKS's and AK's, I mentioned AIM Surplus. I should remind you, AIM Surplus has boxer prime non-corrosive heat-adilled 7.62x39 ammunition in good inventory and in stock on a regular basis. There are a couple of different loads in 7.62x39. Soft point ammunition or ball I recommend ball. It's up to you whatever you if you had a chance to experiment if you're going to if you're going to use a Soft point round you want to perhaps just buy a couple of boxes See how it cycles through your particular weapon and you will maybe works one. It should work at all mark No, it doesn't really work that way unique thing about The martial arms that we have committed to is that they are persnickety to particular ammunition. So you want to experiment in that case. Now if it's ball ammo, what magazine or what mount, what ball ammo you buy, it will all work first time every time pretty much. There isn't a whole lot they can do to mess up baseline ball ammo. But there are other issues that can develop with unique rounds. So you definitely want to test your weapon. to see how it responds to that particular ammunition that you're thinking about committing to. Always remember that. It doesn't cost you but a few dollars and maybe wait a day or two more to make a decision as to whether or not you're going to purchase a lot more or maybe no more of that particular ammunition that you're looking at that you're thinking about investing in. And it is an investment, guys. I can't stress enough that if you have an AR-15 and a 760x39 and you've got an upper, well, the ammunition that you're going to be using is what's available and you're the one that's going to make that happen. You're going to have to invest. Make a point of doing so now. I'd love to see the weapons in service. There's nothing wrong with an AK or an SKS. They are as lethal as they have always been. for the entire time it existed on this planet, but you have to make sure they can continue to function and contribute to the battlefield when the time comes. So invest in 7.62x39. Another interesting thing, this popped up for whatever reason, the algorithms I've noticed that in Going into different circles, I don't care if it's Rumble or if you go to YouTube or Bitchhoot because each has all kinds of interesting subjects including arms and ammunition. And Rumble is becoming more dominant there because of all the BS that everybody's putting up with YouTube. YouTube's cutting off its nose despite its face and they're going to continue to be communist no matter what you would hope for. But because of that, other sources have some really good video information available, technical information you might want to look at. One of the things that I noticed that popped up is the AR18 slash the AR180 slash the, there's a couple of the nomenclature variants because more than one company did a remake of the AR180. Originally, it's an ArmaLite design. There was an actual, I don't know how many of you remember this, but there was a company that made an upper that was the AR180 upper that would drop right onto an AR15. Don't know what happened to the company. Don't know how many they made. They did get it into production. It had the basic AR180 silhouette, but it was the upper. that was doing all of the work to try and create the effect. Otherwise, it was standard AR-15 lowers, standard AR-15 mags. That was one of the interim solutions that came out back in the late 80s, early 90s. The AR-180 was produced, was actually developed almost identically in parallel with the M16 and AR-15 family of rifles. It was the rifle that Stoner actually thought the government should buy instead of the M16 for the US Army. Needless to say that didn't happen. The AR-15, M16, pattern of rifle won out in terms of attitude, and the rest is history there. But the AR-180 did go into service. I saw somebody right stumping up there. Well, nobody employed it. Now that's not true. First of all, it was American made. There is a British Sterling that produced it. And the Japanese produced the rifle. Now, if you have ever been, although you won't see very many, I know why, because most have been purchased, bought up by a particular single group of people. But those that are lingering around out there, you can still see an example of all three. The Japanese. being the rarest in terms of probably being able to find one to look at, actually see, to observe. That's the odd man out, so to speak. But the British model, they're all interchangeable for parts. There really isn't any variation in the standard model. But there is quite a difference in, for instance, the British version, the British variant, because It was adopted with the British military, I think mostly used in the Troubles in Ireland, as a sniper or a counter-sniper light rifle system. The Japanese experimented with it and apparently used it to whatever limited degree with either law enforcement and or with a limited military procurement. The company that was producing the weapon in Japan, needless to say, was pushing over weapons back, I should say the manufacturer, was pushing weapons back into the U.S. per contract, and that's why a combination of both the American, Japanese, and British AR-180s are still to a very limited degree in circulation. Now the combating has come up because you might recall a few years ago, and it doesn't seem like it's been that long, but yep it has, more than a couple years, a reintroduction of the AR180 was brought up but with specific modifications. Now one sad part about the original AR180s is that they intentionally altered the magazine catch so that it was not integratable, the magazines were not integratable from the AR15 to the AR180. The idea behind this is that the government didn't want you to have those government magazines that eventually would be selling out to the front door on a regular basis through the 80s and 90s. At surplus, by the way, they did. But in the earlier stage, as part of the colonial attitude about, you know, you colonial peasants can't have the same thing the government has. The AR180 was proprietary for the magazine. Now you could make it work. There's all kinds of tricks. I've seen every one of them. I have seen every one of them. So the new reintroduction of the AR180 was to cure a little problem that really wasn't difficult to fix. The change is that they used an AR15 type magazine latch and a magazine latch designed so that the latch was in the same location and any factory mag pole or, you know, Take your pick. Hex mag or any metal mags could be used in the new AR-180. It does, it seemed to have hit the market at the wrong window in time. It's interesting that the weapon itself should have sold better. I would say this, at least it wasn't a $1200 gun off the rack like everything we're seeing now. Everything's $1200 now. The rifle itself is a serviceable weapon. The only issue is, if it's a novel weapon to have as an example, if you're listening and you're building or you're looking at the future of building more arms, remember that it was stampings more so than aluminum forging and then machining that was done to build the AR-180. It was, in fact, the closest thing to describe it, it's the FN-FAL of the light rifles of the period. If you compare an FNFL and look at the basic lines, you'll see what I'm talking about. Big advantage, magazine well was a bucket magazine well just like you see on an M16 with a stamped component. Beyond that, everything else is pretty straightforward, understandable. If you can understand how to break down an AR-15, the AR-180 works pretty much the same way in terms of Basic motion, which is critical. Minimal cross training time required to be able to put a person behind the same rifle. Disadvantage. Well, now the things are, even though they're not outrageously expensive, as I've said before, how many AR-15s can you buy for the price of one even post Vietnam AR-180? Especially if it's an original, they're collectible. That's the thing that bites the price in the rear end and pretty well kills it as a direction to go or an option. For the people who invested years ago, the AR180 was cheaper initially than the AR15 back in the day. So it was actually much easier to grab more for less dollars. Even in the post-70s era, The AR-180s that were acquired, there were people who went around the country and said, I think I like that gun, we want them all. And so a particular purchasing agent group went out, scoured the country for most of them, and that's why you don't see any showing up at the gun shows. It's like certain other firearms. The same thing happened because they were preferred for militia and defense use. If you've got all of them, you don't have to worry about spares. And of course, if you did buy the spare parts inventory too, well then guess what? You've got everything you need to operate for quite some time. The AR180 in its original configuration though is a very comfortable rifle to fire, comparable to the AR15 across the board in all performance aspects. And it is just as lethal as anything else you might put to your shoulder in the category. Again now though, the least, far less expensive AR-15s are available and you can build multiple copies. Another overlapping rifle that if you see it, we need more copies, we need people to grab them. I have seen tired Bushmaster rifles, not Bushmaster AR-15s. Talking the original Bushmaster rifle as produced in the 1970s. Now, the Bushmaster rifle was a rent-a-revolution solution in that back when we were building one AR-15, and we did build them back in the 70s, as I've pointed out many times, we had a glut of M16 parts, but we didn't have much in the way of upper and lower receivers available that were brand new production. Only three companies producing uppers and mostly most important lowers back in the day. And by the way, Anderson was one of those. Interestingly enough, during that period of time, we did build a lot of AR-15s to the point where we got pretty stinking good at it. But, there are the other weapons that were available at the time, Bushmaster, if I bought and built a kit. I could buy off the shelf 2.5 Bushmaster rifles. This is like the AR-15 right now compared to other guns. I can now buy 2.5 to 3 AR-15s for the price of 1 7.62x51 NATO main rifle like a PTR-91 or a FN-FAL. Well, the Bushmaster was the same math formula years ago. So if you were trying to outfit war troops, the advantage of the Bushmaster was all of the internals were AR-15. Everything critical that would wear out was AR-15. Magazines were AR-15. The basic rifle though had very much a closer silhouette to the AK-47, if you paid attention, stamped, and a minimal number of parts. The design was actually pretty sound. Now, people who are ignorant of the firearm make stupid comments, but if you've had it in the field, the rifle actually held up very well for being an inexpensive 5.56 rifle when nobody else was making anything. In fact, it's only in about that period of time, just after the Bushmaster, that the Mini-14 first becomes available. the other 5.56 rifle that was a weapon of choice if you were looking to outfit a number of people with a decent, well-made firearm. But again, I could buy two and a half, almost three of the Bush Master rifles for the price of one mini-14. So I could have three men carrying a 5.56 rifle with all government parts and government magazines, making it a very viable solution. Now again, usually it's how well did it work? As I said before, we beat the snot out of these rifles. We actually took them into the field, tried to see. In other words, we abused them. Lack of maintenance, minimal with regard to cleaning, and they held up. They actually continued to function flawlessly. Now, were they as well built? Maybe as any AR-15 out there? Well, I would say yes. But again, They were still a lighter duty rifle. There are certain aspects that with an extended period of operation, probably would have dropped out sooner if spare parts weren't available. The cool thing is all the parts that would wear out were M16A or M15 parts. So they were affordable. You didn't have to go to a proprietary component, you know, a proprietary parts inventory that would become more expensive or less available as time went by. So anyway, that answers another question from an email because somebody I know listening has probably going to be able to pick up two of those Bushmaster rifles. One looks pretty tired. Looks like they ran that rifle through the ringer. The other one looks average like it just came out of the box. I would buy both of them. I wouldn't hesitate. So for our listener who's asking, that's why I qualified this, but also other people benefit. because the Bushmaster Rifles are a good weapon, they would be more user friendly for production right now than the AR-15. They were much easier to produce and that's very, very critical with the future world scenario that everybody's talking about. We need to be prepared to be able to, as needed, replace battlefield losses and or consumption and the need for weapons for new parties and individuals coming into play. So this is one of the many components, one of the things we need to be thinking about now in preparation for what's coming in the future. Now, we're almost to the top here. And oh, over at MajorSurplus.com, MajorSurplus, MajorSurplus, MajorSurplus. They have a buy one, get two, free combo right now. It's a voodoo. Multi-tool along with a lock blade knife, buy one, get two free. The price for the basic kit is $16, so it comes to about $5 for a combination universal Leatherman type tool and a lock blade Spyderco type knife. Take a look at it. It's over a go over to major surplus or out of California. They do have a couple of other things that are special in the discount rack right now you might want to take a look at. And they do have, well, they may be out again, they keep running out, survival tabs. And I had a chance to show a few people yesterday the survival tab concept. I've got one in my hand. That's why right now. And survival tabs are an excellent solution for putting some food on your tactical gear that can't rot, can't break down. A standard canteen cover is used to carry the container, so it's really easy to fix it or you just drop it into your combat kit if you're using a backpack or if you've got a fanny pack, make space for it in there. But survival tabs, emergency food rations, you will find them over at Major Surplus. And they sometimes have a two for sale on that buy one get one free also. That's what I took advantage of the last time we picked these up. All right, we are at the top and headed out for the evening. It's the middle of the week and heading into the work weekend it will start tomorrow Thursday for Camp Emmerich and also Uh, Camp Whelan North. You guys are going to have pre-deployment personnel there tomorrow. Tomorrow's Thursday. That means the micro-offends will be up also, and the micro-offends will be manned along with the radio site. So, God bless our Republic. Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And we are on the march for day and night. And guess what? You know what? They're probably gonna strip out that plane that they got from, from... what, uh... And they're gonna turn it into a transport for the, the illegals, like I said. Right, guys? I'm, I'm really holding my breath for that. No, I'm not. I really hated the airport. They just wanted another yacht, that's all. It turns out exactly what I said. They just wanted another sky yacht. And when you're rich, you just can't pass up a free sky yacht. Come on, guys. You know better. Anyway, thank you to WBCQ for having us. 6.160 regular shortwave. And Liberty Tree Radio. We're going to be signing off from there, but LTR carries on. God bless.
