When I was a chaser Six whole years We've been since we first met Oh, we've sure been through Our share of laughter and regret Well, we've had our bad day More than once we've deserved And I pray most of it Sometimes I think you just lied Five days When you say I There are three participants in the conference. The recording has started. Please announce yourself. We wrote the Constitution as a guilt from Tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land, the freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. But Tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper, so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan, you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm, so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm. And keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the 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 live in fear? Be a slave. Both sons of the Republic. Arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the plan. Preserve our great Republic in each God-given right. Pray to God to keep the torture freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the midst of whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd thought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? All participants are muted and they can unmute themselves. One two three four one two three four there we go now. We got you I was just coming up to say hey. You're there, but you're muted No, no yeah, the no it wouldn't let me adjust it just kept I tried to unmute you on my end a couple of times that might have done something I don't know it shouldn't have them so anyway. We're here and good afternoon ladies and gentlemen this is the First hour of the intelligence report, Hamarkarkey. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. East, west, north, and south. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. Liberty Tree Radio.org. And we're on satellite. I want to say hi to all of our operators there. Analog and Digital, rebroadcasting. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And it is Wednesday. It has been just kind of a really medium Wednesday today. It is the 6th of August. 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, give her all she has got, Captain. 125%. And she might still blow up, even with a planet killer in front of us. Oh, which is the plan, Scotty. Anyway, it's also 2025, Battle for the Republic. Book one, The Dance of Swords. And it's, like I said, it's been a medium day. It's a classic August day. It looks like it wants to rain. Riley pregnant with rain clouds that don't do anything So ignore those and carry on with whatever works you got to get done because they ain't going anywhere Yeah, well it's hazy everywhere beyond the low cloud cover It's hazy all over the state because of the good old Canadian incompetence with regard to fire Canadian wildfires good call or jump in there, please Now, as you say, because of the Canadian wildfires, they say that they don't know if they can contain them because the USA won't help them. Yeah, right. Well, it's called incompetence on their part. They've been used to the idea of not fighting fires. The way we traditionally did when it came to forestry operations, but even the pricks here are the same kind of trash now. It's intentional incompetence. It's going to continue to be that way. It's another reason we need to get rid of the stupid and scrub the country out and get back to American concepts of how to do things, as in can do, get the job done. Because that ain't going to happen with the leftists. We've got presently both in the fake right, which are all leftists. And more on that in a minute, by the way. And the obvious communists that make up the Turd Legion that is oh so worthless. And it just repeats, repeats, repeats to the point where no, we don't need to repeat. We need them gone. We just need them all gone. And the sooner we either deport them or put their ass down in a war, the better off we'll be. Because they plan on trying to kill us. They'd like doing a death camp. We just plan on doing it outright. We'll just get right in your face. And congratulations, Tag, you're it. That's what needs to happen. But, yeah, worry. There'll be plenty of smatter time before that gets there with the way things are going. Not a lot of time. But, yeah, that'll be a little bit of time to think about things, get stuff in order. Maybe we'll see what happens. You never know. Bad guys might want to kick something off sooner. That happens. You all better be ready for it. That's all I can say. Now, real quick, does anybody catch the latest twist that a bunch of the Jewish communists have opened their face with Tucker Carlson and said, well, Tucker Carlson was a Democrat. Well, so was, so let's see. Do you want to go right down through the list? How many Democrats? other than the fact that what the other ones are better Jewish controlled is that it so of the fake Republicans you presently have in this fake ass administration how many were Democrats or Demikins only very short time ago let's see Donald Trump registered Democrat hmm right from the get-go okay but he's not the only one what about Tulsi Gabbard Was Tulsi Gabbard that long-time, staunch, conservative, American icon of the Constitution and conservation of the Republic? No. Let's think of Democrat. Now, what about... Don't I have to ask about Kennedy? Do we need to guess what Mr. Kennedy has been? Has Mr. Kennedy not been a communist? I mean a Demican, communist, communist, Demican? So, I was going, if you go down the list, most, half of what you've got there were open, outright, hyper-leftists. or their closet leftists. You know, we talked about the rhino closet commies for years, and now everybody accepts it, but what's fascinating is that the latest spiff for the Jewish communists that are trying to attack anybody who's pointing out what the Jewish communists are up to This is the latest one that, well, he wasn't a Republican before. Well, neither was the rest of the stinking administration. They're all shills. But they're the Jewish shills that they want for the Jewish scam that they're running, which I think is really fascinating. So, you know, Colin McKettle Black doesn't work with me. It's just that simple. Tucker Carlson's kind of been pointing out the big dead white elephant, dead stinking corpse of an elephant, sitting in the middle of a room called the Jewish mob and the way that they've defecated anybody. So first before it died, before the stinking big white dead elephant in the middle of a room that crushed the coffee table in the center of the room, before it died it crapped on everything too. Defecated, I want to be nice, but I think I'll get my drift. And so, yeah, you got the double whammy. And it's like, well, wow. So Tucker Carlson, he's bad because for whatever reason back in the day, he was supposed to have been a demican. But everybody else in this administration has been a demican. So that's not exactly a good choice of point the finger right now. Not without everybody going, huh, you know what? Whoever said that's right. But all the rest of these fools, they were all Democrats. They aren't doing us any good. In fact, until they realized they had to reset the superhero cast and put Skunk Hair up there, Skunk Hair was like fourth, fifth, sixth in line. She wasn't even getting any airtime. Did anybody notice that? It's like the one from South Dakota. Same thing. Other than the fact she's got the big puffy hair, the big long puffy hair, and is always wearing the baseball cap. You know, in charge of Homeland Sucky writing. Can't speak. Basically, it's just there is an ornament. No, I'm sure. Yeah, I know who it is. My point is, everybody can picture this person. What do they look like? What are they? Okay, well, they're female, of course. But what's fascinating about this is that several times today I caught this and I was like, huh, so what's your point? You already pretty much everybody else that you could point at in this administration is a leftist. Is. Not maybe kind of sort of is. I. F. So anyway, I just I wanted to bring it up because it's a who. It's a laugh. But what it is is the Jewish mob trying to take the small brains, the ones who aren't thinking, and use their small brains against them so that they're like, yeah, yeah, he wasn't a Republican before. Well, sir. Yeah. Well, neither were any of the other turds. But? Well, the rest of them were all themekins too. Oh, well, yeah, but that's different because the ones that are leading me around by my nose, they didn't point that out. But they pointed this out so I need to repeat it like a parrot repeat it like a parrot repeat it like a parrot See what I mean? So anyway, it's fascinating things going on hard times and you know dark times and knuckles down lonesome The adventure is continuing I would remind everybody again, we are going to talk about a number of subjects. It is Weapons Wednesday. Yes, we're going to touch on the chemical warfare attacks that we have direct experience with, not kind of sort of maybe or somebody reporting as somebody heard. In each case, with regard to the tactical deployment of low altitude spraying operations, we know the end result of the, with regard to casualties and the volume of casualties. Most important here to remember is that they've done it before, they'll try to do it again. They may be more surreptitious about it. We'll see how that works. They may not. They may just be very overt because they're getting rather desperate because, as I just pointed out, a lot of people are kind of catching on to the, that's kind of a goofy argument you've come up with because If you're now saying you hate everybody that was a former Democrat, virtually half of this administration needs to have its butt dragged out the door. But since the others are pro-Israeli licking the bunghole so deep that their ears are brown of the Jewish mob, well, they're okay. You know, it's just when you're not in line with proper butt licking, you get in trouble. Which is what's happened now with Tucker Carlson. He's not properly butt-licking. If he was butt-licking, he'd be okay. Just that simple. Now, a couple of other things before we get too far along. Number one, over at Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto State Armory, Palmetto State Armory. They have a single barrel shotgun for sale, 20 gauge, It is $74 and I think like $0.84, maybe it's $0.95 but I thought I saw $0.84, $74, $84, something like that. Yeah, $75 for a single barrel, 20 gauge field gun ribbed, which I thought was rather interesting. In fact, it actually very much has a trap and skeet look to it, the same as the 28 gauge gun that they're offering also. Now this is I think a Hatfield McCoy or Hatfield, just Hatfield, you tell me, shotgun. It's over at Palmetto State Armor. It's in the deals of the day. It's at the top of the scroll typically. And for $75, if you're looking for a utility bird and a bunny gun, it's what I grew up with. That's what I used. It was a 20 gauge. Most of my hunting time as a youth. Even though I did have eventually another pump 12 and whatever I grew up with an Ithaca 20 gauge lever action single shot I could bring home dinner every night and either take your take your pick quail pheasant or bunny and the occasional raccoon but raccoons simply because we need to send them out there were just too many of them So we had to make sure we got rid of a few of the raccoons. Well, not wasting them. I don't kill something and waste it. No, we're not going to eat the people that we're talking about. Well, no, no. But probably still get rid of them. It's just we're not going to eat them. So anyway, as it is, what's interesting is that they have a couple of other items there, as Dar pointed out, that are still on the list. You may want to take a look at what they have available. And see if anything there floats your boat and fits your needs and that's over at Palmetto State Armory.com Palmetto State Armory.com Now also another gun issue over at AimSurplus.com AimSurplus.com They have a bunch. Oh guys, you're gonna be fascinated by this any of you have a Glock Do you need spare Glock barrels right now? Barrels? I didn't say barrel. This is a short, short sale. I don't know if it's even up at this moment. It was this morning. Guys, they've got Glock barrels over at AIM surplus for $20 apiece, including some that are threaded. And I think one that was ported, though I'd be willing, but that one sells fast. There are a bunch of markdown barrel deals over at aim surplus dot com. In fact, I wouldn't blame you if you just left the program right now and went over there and checked this out immediately. If you have a choice and you if you get a Glock, you need to go over there and see if you can find barrels that make to your right your pistol and if they do buy them. This is the best deal for spare barrels now. They're in a number of different finishes and even some of the exotic finishes are $30 or less. In fact, several of them, several, not one or two, are $20, $19.95, but I'm just going to say $20, okay? So if you have to hang up and go over to aimsurplus.com, you want to do that right now. Take advantage of this barrel deal. This is over at aim surplus.com. By the way, they also have some 320 barrels. Everybody was talking about, whoa, would you buy a 320 considering what it does? Well, if they get cheap enough, I'd buy a pile of them. But here's what's cute. I'd also buy a pile of barrels for the price of $19.95 apiece. It's rather fascinating just exactly what could be done with something like that if it's used properly. Yeah, in fact look at it this way the CZ okay, so you can't keep out You can't keep around in the chamber who knows maybe when you load it it'll go off but If you could buy the gun cheap enough and also have spare barrels spare parts spare magazines cheap cheap cheap And by the way, there's a bunch of 320 magazines out there really cheap also You might want to check aim surplus too But yeah, I'd bury him down the road, especially if I can put 6, 7, 10, 20 of them away for the price of two other guns. Yeah, I would. Heartbeat. What do you think twice? Why? Because more guns are better. But it might go on for your holster, not if it's not loaded. And if I use it for a particular application and understand the discipline that I have to maintain in order to operate it, yeah, I'd use it. Why not? No, you're crazy. No, I'm not. I'm conscious of the fact that many of you are poor. Most people are budget unfriendly right now, okay? But right now, over at AIM surplus, Glock barrels $20 apiece. Glock barrels $20 apiece popped up last night. Should be still there today. And a bunch of other barrels too. Two numerous dimensions and as far as the models, they've got 17s, 19s, and I think it was a 26. I think that was the other one, the 26. It's stubby chubby. Right? And of course, the 320s. Oh my God, not the 320. A SIG 320. Yeah, a SIG 320. So anyway, that's, again, Weapons Wednesday Solutions, not just complaining about the problems. Now, first of all, we were talking yesterday, we now have information that's been, it's coming down the tube from Lansing, which means it came from the feds. They are already planning on and setting up the construction for another lockdown of the country. If that happens, we're going to work. I understand that. We'll be shooting their asses. That's not a problem. But the fact is that they're going to try. That's good. If they want to, you know, go for the gusto, do stupid stuff, be an idiot. If government wants to be an idiot, they're going to be an idiot. And then we'll end up in a war for independence and we'll be free again. It will take time, but we will be free again. That's a good thing. It needs to happen. So, if that does happen, then it's obvious they're going to try to hit us with another biological weapon of whatever type that the government and the Israelis Or should I say one of the same? The Jewish mob Israelis running the US government out of the district of criminals are going to hit us with another biological weapon, maybe more in a more aggressive fashion. They're going to demand that the Jewish mob have total control and that they are the overlords and blah, blah, blah, blah, you know the usual routine with the crazy town fruit loop nutcases. What they're talking about is there's a number of things including economics. The fact that they're not just handing out checks like they did before. It's going to be subsistence in terms of what they pay. Payout, whatever the hell that means. So in other words, doggy treat time for you. But illegal aliens and the Israelis will get 100% of everything that they want because that's what the turds in Washington do when they're butt licking the Israelis. The big thing here is that we need to be prepared with protection, biological, nuclear biological and chemical defense. We also have the idea that the idiot sticks, of course, are rattling the sabers for a nuclear exchange, if that happens. There's nothing that will come to you but a bullet to the back of your head by government. They have nothing to offer you. They plan on trying to kill off as many Americans as possible. That's the plan. That's what the kosher mafia has in mind. So, everybody better be ready for this. NBC defense is pretty straightforward. I checked, by the way, for instance, rubber boots. Well, let's go shortlist. You need a gas mask. You need a chem suit. Tyvek suit is fine. Rubber gloves, rubber boots, duct tape to seal the system up, and spare filters for the gas mask, by the way, which we should have mentioned. Right now, you can get US green rubber boots clearance over at Sportsman's Guide for $6, brand new, unissued, size 6 and size 7. They have German rubber boots, higher calf height, a little higher, a little more than the American calf height. for about the same price and in bigger sizes. So one way or another, you could go to Sportsman's Guide. There's your rubber boots dealt with right there. They also have rubber gloves. I believe those are Belgian military issue. Again, take a look in clearance. Always go to clearance first. Let's see what's in clearance before you go paying top dollar. Because you'd be amazed what's going to pop in there and it happens all the time and which is why again go there first As far as the Tyvek suits. Yep They even have Tyvek suits in the clearance section if you want to go that way true and they're cheap So if you could buy most of what you need clearance off the shelf at one location, Sportsman's Guide. Now somebody's asking immediately about gas masks? Yeah, they got gas masks, prices up and down, so it's a personal flavor choice there. You can either go with Sportsman's Guide, you can go to gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com, they still have the M1s for under $20 apiece, those are Serbian M1 copies of the M9 mask with 60 millimeter filters, and they have cases of filters available. So there's your basics right there. Now beyond that it being more sophisticated, we're not going to touch on that for the moment because people ask questions about the chemical attacks that happened in the 90s. And again, they backed off because we changed policy very quickly. Once we realized that the enemy was trying to bug spray the population, we went to a shoot down and execute whoever is on board order. Amazingly enough, the short or low level spraying ceased. Why? Because everybody knew that air defense works. The first incident in terms of the general spraying that took place is actually something that happened up here in Michigan. And it first happened over Flint, Michigan in the Genesee County area. Several of our people, one of them as I've mentioned many many times, is a farmer on the south side of Flint, outside of Flint, Michigan in the 69 corridor. He's on his tractor, he's a photographer, got his camera with him, and he looks to the east and over the horizon starts to see a line of dots all the way to the north as far as you can see and all the way to the south. As they raise up, they are quad engine turboprop, not yet, turboprop aircraft, P-3 Arians and also a couple of the DC variants. And these aircraft are spread out and they are spraying. They are literally dispersing a fog. They are running a material that is leaving the back of the aircraft off the wings and spreading out and dispersing. He's on the helicopter. He's on his tractor. He stops the tractor. He's got his camera going. He takes multiple pictures. The aircraft goes straight overhead from east to west out to the horizon and disappear again. They turn around, obviously, and come back. And they're doing the same thing. This time, as they come back, he's on his tractor. Now, think about this. He's on his tractor taking pictures. One of the P3 Orion's breaks off from the formation, comes down to low altitude and circles him as if they're trying to threaten him that they see him. Well, that just gives him a better opportunity to photograph, in fact, the quality of the images. And I have a whole stack of them and we've posted them on the internet. Whether or not they've disappeared, who knows, because at different times they've echoed through the system. But the plane circles around and then proceeds to catch up with the rest of the formation. The same altitude goes over the horizon and they're gone. One week later in the Genesee County area, all medical emergency rooms are full. The problem? Upper respiratory distress. thousands and thousands of individuals, every hospital facility, every clinic is swamped with upper respiratory distress casualties. Now, so we wait. Again, what's interesting is this happens a second time, only this time it's up by Big Rapids, where Don Betcher, at that time my co-host, where he lived. And the exact same scenario played out. And after the spring, within a few days, everybody started to get this upper respiratory clog and distress. Don was affected quite heavily by it. He was in the center of the area of activity, virtually the center of the line of aircraft as they passed over. And he starts to get this, literally what turns into her feels like pneumonia, worse than pneumonia, is like he says, he said, The second event with him, he said it felt like he was breathing underwater. He was a diver. He was a very competent diver. He did many unique things through his age. And he said it's like breathing underwater, like you've got pressure on everything. We were talking about this over the air. Don was able to do part of a program, a doctor out of the Montana, Idaho area. made contact with us, said, hey, I'm shooting something to you in the mail. It was the detox formula that we're going to be talking about again here in a minute. And so what happened is he got it to us. We drove it up to Don. We made sure Don took it, drank it. as prescribed by the doctor and of course he had additional material that we left everything with him that he would need so he could redose and redose and redose but he said while the amoxicillin that they gave him at the hospital would level it out, would not fix it, you didn't get better, you just stopped it from proceeding. If you backed off which they tried to for a day with the amoxicillin, the level they were giving him, immediately he got worse. What's interesting is with the detox formula, he had a result within one hour. Within one hour, he said literally he could feel his lungs clearing from top to bottom and he was expirating the garbage, you know, coughing it up, hacking it out, and he was breathing step by step better. Now, we don't know what they sprayed everybody with, but we do know that it was extensive, created a whole bunch of people. Who knows how many people died from that? We don't know. And as far as somebody thinking that there's been any kind of truthful maintenance of any numbers with regard to actions like this, you've got to have your head up yours. They've been lying for decades and decades and decades. There's nothing that they've been speaking the truth about pretty much. And in this case, it's obvious that this was designed to hurt people. It was a mass spraying. Now, what's interesting, and by the way, not at high altitude. This was at medium-low altitude. We're talking low enough that you literally can make up markings on the aircraft, you can identify the specific aircraft easily, and tell markings on the aircraft by who may or may not have owned the aircraft, because just because it's got a marking on it today doesn't mean it doesn't go into the paint shop over there at Willer-Run Airport with the CIA. And they repainted again because they got paint shops all over the place for that purpose at airports. One was at Willow Run on the east side, southeast side of the airport, tucked away in a corner. So anyway, that incident gave us the ability to actually deal with the problem. Meanwhile, the Gray Ranch problem had been developing for quite some time. Now the Grays are down in Texas. Their property abuts to a river. The Bushes wanted their property. So they decided they were going to start causing pressure to be able to acquire the rest of the land up and down the river. The Grays were one of the targeted families for that purpose. In the process, they set the van up with an incident through an individual that he got in a car with. It was fabricated just outside of his property. He was picked up. It was obvious that it was a complete fabrication. He realized that. He also realized it was a kangaroo court situation. So he said, well, I'm not going back to court. I think I'm just going to stay home. If I'm going to die, I might as well die on the ranch here. So the gray siege developed. The family came together. Families and locals rallied behind the grays. They established a regular security system to maintain control over the property. The state wanted to do a Waco, but kind of held back on it. You might recall that we had a drive-by shooting by the sheriff's deputies of the sheriff's department, which was videotaped as clear as I'm looking at my hand, to the point where the individuals that were filmed, the images could be used for mug shots. They were that clear. and all the individuals were sheriff's deputies. They had driven by the property, one of them was in the back of the truck, sets up, fires at the gray family members that were there. The idea was to lure them down the road to an ambush, I guarantee it. We've seen this before, it didn't work. But the next step was, while two of the family members, two of the sons, were on patrol of the property, they're older, middle-aged gentlemen at that time, They also had a central communications and observation post located at the center of the property. One of the girls was manning that. And a Huey helicopter came in at ultra low altitude with a sprayer unit and of course started to spray across the property and in the process hit both of the aimed for they could see what they were doing. Two of the Gray family members, the third, who was under a canopy at the LPOP, was also mildly hit. Now, she was not as heavily affected, but the two that were in the open, we saw the same result as the middle spraying activities that took place up here in Michigan. In this instance, they went into the hospital. The hospital said, yeah, you've been hit with something. We don't know what it is. Or they wouldn't say, because they were told not to. You know, you all know how the pressure works with the lying feds. We all know this. Everybody understands this nowadays. Nobody needs to be, it doesn't need to be explained anymore. It's pretty well expected. They're lying. However, they wouldn't, they couldn't, they tried again. Everything that was in the battery of drugs that they would recommend for the type of respiratory distress that the individuals had. Amoxicillin once again was the only thing that had any effect. I don't know if at that time they were, working with any of the other battery of drugs that we all are a little more familiar with. But Amoxicillin, everybody's familiar with enough. And again, it stabilized and held ground, but it wouldn't take back. It wouldn't get rid of the problem. As soon as we heard about what happened, we immediately got a batch of the detox down to the graze. And again, with this situation, the only thing that had any effect was the detox formula. Immediate results and elimination of the problem. So success. Now the fourth incident, and I'm compressing this because we're not going to spend forever on this because we're already partially, well, three quarters of the way through the hour. The fourth incident took place during one of the Knob Creek meetups. And some of the people that are listening right now are there for this event. There was a deployment that was away from the Knob Creek machine gun shoot location. It was a bit of a valley, privately owned property, good location for encampment and for a get together and training if need be, which it had been used for in the past. And the helicopter again came in, Huey, low altitude and sprayed over the personnel that were there. In that situation, although some did make contact with us, others did not immediately. Those who we were able to render aid to immediately had relief. Those that we did not, it took time for them to catch up with the program, so to speak, and then using the TTOCs formula, we were able to eliminate the problem that these individuals had, and again, it was upper respiratory distress, Lungs filling with fluid, lethargy, you also say, lack of oxygen, dudes. Come on, remember? Can't breathe. Wow, you don't get air. And the whole system starts to shut down. And in each case, again, the detox formula was the solution. The regular battery of drugs did not work. Now somebody's asking, did they use ivermectin? We don't know. We don't know what the full treatment was, but we know that the seclusion, the replacement treatment that we came up with, actually served to be effective against the general broad spectrum of whatever it is that they were delivering. We don't know if there was a cocktail, we don't know if there were more than one type of agent that was used, but we do know that the basic symptoms were the same from one casualty event to the next. And the detox formula is the only thing that actually work. Now, we use the detox formula on a regular basis. If we've got bugs, colds, anything like that, I don't really get colds for the most part, for whatever reason. Number one, I have a tendency to make sure I get dirty. I think the biggest problem with a lot of people is they don't. And so your immune system typically is down. If you do too much of the antibacterial scrub, guys, your body weakens because it's not having to do its job. This is something we've had a conversation about for decades in the homeopathic arena. So it's one of those situations where, again, it's not that you're too clean, but in a way, yeah, you're too clean. your body doesn't have to in any way shape or form rally itself and so then becomes susceptible when an odd bug comes along to visit. Okay? So this is something that needs to be taken into consideration is number one Try to work, you know, get out there. I know it's terrible. Oh God work is horrible But get out there and get dirty get out there work with the soil get out there get your shoes off get grounded That's another thing that I think is especially critical to some of the issues that we have right now It's just there's too many things that just keep popping up in our repeat ad nauseam over and over and over again as an issue And we're going to have to come up with better solutions to these problems. And most of them are actually just old common sense. Now the detox is posted, it is posted on the discord, on the gilded scroll that we have for Liberty Tree Radio. If you go to www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, When you get there, you can go to the scroll and they posted it prominently there. It's also on our page, on our Liberty Tree radio page. If you go through the information base there, take the time and peruse that anyway because there's a lot of other information that you probably may not have actually reviewed. Take the time and do that, please. There's a lot of other information out there that we offer, direction, places to go. The big thing here again is that it's not that complicated a solution, in other words, an answer to the problem, but it is interesting in that it's a unique way of dealing with the problem that most people hadn't thought of. That's the way to describe it. We got a caller. Somebody keeps popping in there. Who do we have? Hey, Mark, it's on Facebook. Go ahead, jump in there please. Hey, I like the topics you're talking about. I had something and I wanted to run it by you. I was reading the old papers of a guy from California. He was a highway state patrolman. Gary L. Ween, Mike Piper in his book about how the Mossad killed Kennedy cited his book and some of his writings pretty expensive and I didn't know anything about him. I dug up some of his works and I found one in particular that he wrote about the Patriot Movement, about Waco, about OKC, all that kind of stuff. He tells this story and I thought, oh God, I got to get Mark's take on this. I thought I knew all the details. Well, I didn't know this detail and I bet you could confirm it. Talking about the Waco raids. He tells a story about how the JDL, Jewish Defense League, Er Reuben, Meir Kahane, these people were apparently knocking over National Guard armories in the 50s, 60s, and so on. And they had acquired all these weapons from the National Guard. So he apparently, he makes this claim that Er Reuben knew David Koresh. They were on friendly terms and somehow he had been to the Waco compound. Long story short, the heat got hot. Irv Reuben gave David Koresh several of these weapons. I don't know how many but Koresh ended up taking the weapons, stored them at Waco and apparently didn't want to give them back when Irv Reuben pressed them about it. And the story goes, once Koresh did that, Irv Reuben had his kosher contacts in the feds basically, it sicked him on Koresh. And I had previously never heard anyone in the Patriot movement talk about that little detail of how the Waco thing got started. What do you think about that? Well, I don t, okay, I did catch your, you sent me the email on that. I didn t get a chance to, well, I had to cover this subject for this hour first. I don t think that the weapons were transferred. Or if there was something that happened with the weapons, they were not on the property. If that happened. Now, here's why I say if that happened. Number one, the Israelis were in the middle of all of the attack on the Branch Davidians. So that part is correct. Let's make no mistake about it. The Israelis were directly involved in the attack on the Branch Davidians. Most people in fact I had I brought this up in a another program that we co-broadcast about what? a couple months ago and I know a bunch of people that were on that network were like oh No, I did so-and-so who did research said this and said that not the Israelis the Russians the Brits And needless to say, federal agencies were all at Waco. There's no doubt about that. How can we be sure? Okay, let's just go with the basics, okay, the play actors. Because in the seven different hearings, both Senate and Congressional, eventually all this information, dirty laundry came out in the wash. example, when they were talking about the FLIR technology, who was operating the equipment up in the air over American soil? Well, you would think it would be either US law enforcement or at least US military, but instead it was the British SAS that were operating the FLIR surveillance aircraft over the Branch Davidians. The Israelis were actually there far in advance of the original attack. In fact, it's argued, because this can be pointed out by daytime place, that a year before the attack on the Branch Davidians, the Israelis were tied in with the FBI and ATF on the ground, both at the site at Fort Hood, and at the location in Oklahoma City where they had the coordination point for the attack place on the Branch Davidians. Now one of the things to remember is all of the weapons that were recovered were kept and identified. Does everybody remember this? Let's jog everybody's memory. Every weapon by serial number was properly identified. Yeah, I remember. In fact, I was going to say that story that was told that it sounds fishy like somebody's making stuff up because if they had weapons that were stolen from National Guard armories, they would have brought it up in court. They would have protected where, who stole them in the first place, but they would have used it against Branch Davidians in the court cases. Well, that's right. Okay, first of all, that's where I'm going, but the qualification here is that it's not that the individuals weren't in some way, shape, or form in the divinian sphere in one form or another. Remember, the branched divinions were approached by a lot of different people, and they openly, well, let's just say quietly, but openly, talked to a lot of other people in the Patriot movement about what was circling around them. They were so, they've got overlapping issues. Number one, the Israelis were tied in because there were also individuals who were Jewish who had converted to Christianity who were tied into the branch Davidians, which is where the Jewish connection comes from. And again, If we do a deeper dig, how many of those may have been tied into the very group that was mentioned here, the later end trappings of the JDL. Now the JDL has been out of the picture of, you know, in the limelight, out of the limelight for a very long time. But its operatives inside the United States just segued sideways into like APAC slash ADL slash other Jewish non-governmental organizations. That's like the one we have here in Michigan. They're old JDL. Everybody that we've photographed, videotaped, and documented with all of the hidey-holes here, better than a third of them are either direct JDL oldsters or their JDL, Jewish Defense League, let's just say next generation. You know like the generation afterwards that weren't out there in the open doing the bombings and you know the drive-by shootings and the other stuff So the thing about this is is that you also don't forget have bush coming in from the back end just like with the gray family You have the drug activity on the far end of the property way out in the middle of nowhere people were landing out there This was really the branch of Indians reported this It was tied into the Jewish drug cartel, tied into George Bush, Bill Clinton, blah, blah, blah. That's a sidebar. There's another angle. So the biggest thing that would be critical here is the numbers of all the weapons, most of them, the serial numbers were recoverable. They weren't great, but they were recoverable. And all the weapons are accounted for that were at least publicly posted on the property after the burn. So if any of those had been from one of the armory grabs, then there's two things to remember about the period of time, 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s. It is true that both JDL and the Puerto Rican Liberation Army were going after National Guard and also ROTC armories. Everybody forgets, the ROTC units had full compliments of rifles. They had M14s, they had in many cases browning machine guns, some cases had anti-tank weapons like in Texas, they had a full complement of anti-tank weapons, they had squad weapons, and they had automatic rifles for personal infantry, for regular infantry. Back when the 50s, 60s, and 70s were taking, when those events were taking place, the guard was not issued M16s, they were issued grands. in the earlier stage in carbines along with BAR's or they were issued M14's and the M14 was slid sideways, very few units even in the early 1970s, very few of any units had the M16 rifle. So the weapons that you would want to pay attention to would have been M1 Garands, M1 Carbines, and M14s. Well here's the thing about all of those rifles. If they'd been in the fire, they're steel. See because if they're aluminum, you could argue that well the aluminum receivers were damaged or melted or distorted, we can't get a number off them. But a steel receiver is going to do just fine surviving even the hottest of regular house fires and the serial numbers would have been right there available. Now does that mean that they wouldn't steal stuff out of the property room? Well, I've said that for years. I can prove that because I've done thousands of court cases, thousands of court cases. And you want me to tell you what's the first thing that disappears from property rooms? Guns. Cops and feds steal guns out of property rooms constantly. Guys, who can get into a property room? You can't. I can't. The guy that's being charged can't. But the cops can. Now, there's no indication that that was the case. And remember, when they talk about JDL, JDL's height of activity was from say, it was always active post-World War II, not just the 50s. From the end of World War II, the elements of Murder, Incorporated, which were tied into the ear gun, which were tied into all ear gun in Israel, All of Murder, Inc. was tied into and joined at the hip with weapons transfers from the U.S. Every Jewish-Makhi operation was a Taki in the U.S. But the weapons that they'd be transferring wouldn't be the most modern arms available. It would be the weapons that would be typical of they are available at that time for auxiliary or reserve end guard units. And in this case, those would all be very specific family weapons. We're going to cover this more and we'll get on the other side. Anyway, we've got to get started on it and we can keep going. God bless our Republic. Death to the two world orders. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire of Mount Gourub. You are on the mark, the day and night. Anyway, let's take a break. Whoa! You need to go back to the graphic of the copy. We're gonna be right back with a second on the Injilm Report. We'll carry on from the left up right here with your subject. And again, remember guys, gas man, gas suit, boots, gloves, duck bait, and spare filters for that gas man. But you need a gas man, first and foremost, by one. For all the people you like, not for the ones you don't. Liberty pre-rated. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by... my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we fought a revolution. But the Constitution is from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. Tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken a safe number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail, harass your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children and your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god-given rite, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm a cranky. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southeast, north, southwest, and west. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. We're on the satellite and again thank you for rebroadcasting, analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies to include Ultra, Net Hallmark and Golden Spike separate systems from the internet not connected in any way shape or form continuing to build and with what we're seeing right now it's a good thing we've been doing that for quite a few years. Anyway it is Wednesday, Weapons Wednesday, it is the 6th of August, it is the 17th year of open obvious and pissing in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2025 Old Earth calendar 2025 battle for the Republic book won the dance of swords and it has been a average August day, a hot day, not super hot but it's warm. And if there's moisture on the ground from dew this morning, it didn't last long. And other than that, still, wryly clouds in the sky that look like they think they want to rain on you, but they're not. So don't cancel anything, just keep the tarps handy if you look like you have to cover something up because I hold my breath waiting for the rain. It's just not there, it's just not feeling it. So it's very dynamic weather here in the bottom of Michigan right now. The subject we were on is a discussion about a pop-up that was available on the possibility of the JDL or the old JDL. By the time we get around to the Branch Davidians in the 90s, this is actually fogged out, but it is from what was the JDL. to a number of NGOs that are concealing what would be traditional JDL clandestine spying, assassination, or bombing operations inside the US. The JDL itself, Jewish Defense League, was responsible for up to 8,000 bombings a year in the New York area and coastal area alone, but specifically New York City. Any one year. The most famous multi bombing that took place with the JDL were a series of hockey rinks. Yeah, you heard me right. Ice rinks. And the JDL in one case planted 14 bombs in one location. Fourteen. Okay. By the way, they all went off. Yeah, on top of everything else, you should remember that, right? No, you're not supposed to remember any of that because it's the Communists and the, you know, Jewish mob. Yeah, if you need to actually repeat myself, Communists, Jewish mob, Jewish mob, Communists that did the bombings. By the way, I received no note briefings. I've mentioned this many times. while I was an Intel analyst and they covered both the bombings by the other hyper leftist operations such as the Puerto Rican Liberation Front, the JDL, leftovers from the SDS, Students for Democratic Society, although by that point again they had mutated to another whatever farcical name, combination of letters they'd pulled out of their arse. This is typically what happens year after year, decade after decade. And in this case, the JDL, talking about the early 90s, was in reality tied in with a whole bunch of other NGOs, Jewish non-governmental organizations, operating all through the United States. Two of those organizations operating right here in Ann Arbor, Michigan, just like the old weather underground. And these Jewish non-government organizations directly tied into terrorist operations, not just in the United States, but in Mexico and in Canada. So it's 1993-94. The Israelis are pissing and moaning at the US government about attacking the Branch Davidians. That is happening. That was happening at that period of time. And it can be demonstrated by a number of reports that were done during the multiple post-burning of Waco congressional and senate hearings where they tried to do damage control to deflect what was actually or what had actually gone on. So again, a lot of this is in congressional record if people are willing to dig it out. I will point out with regard to the multinational force on the ground, the BBC did three separate reports in which they talked about the Russian psychological warfare unit on the ground at Waco during the Waco siege. They videotaped, they photographed, and they even talked with individuals who were part of the Russian psychological warfare unit that was operating on the ground. They were using a series of military vans. And they're the ones that actually came up with the screaming, dying rabbit audio, guys. When you hear that, That wasn't the bat faggots and that wasn't the FBI that thought that up. That was the Russian Psychological Warfare Unit that had been brought in as part of the global cooperation scam that was rampant at that point in time. Remember, they were trying to drop the borders, do the warm fuzzy globalist thing, everybody forgets, now they've done the anti-Russian stuff, well there's a reason. That's 30 years ago. And all of the characters, the cast of characters that were selling out Russia as Communists, working with the Communists here in America, well, they all got old. Guess what? The world has changed. So that's a part of what needs to be understood when you're listening to people always, they never put, they never place all of the characters in the proper point in the timeline, okay? Now, with regard to activities, Branch Davidians were on the scope and very, very politically active in a dozen different directions. Guys, they were completely up to speed and in fact had been observing a lot of the stuff that we were pointing out, including for instance, everybody goes, oh, the black helicopters. Well, at the time, the black helicopter as a symbol and as a useful tool for the globalists on American soil was a reality. But helicopters, like people, get old too. And the benefit of the post-Cold War helicopter fleet By flying the bejesus out of it for psychological and for police state operations inside America, well, it ran them down. It literally ran them down. They had to park what they've got. They still have a bunch. Even of the older aircraft, they've got them underground. They've got them in different locations around the country. But they have to hold them in reserve because they're only going to be good for so many more hundreds or even a few thousand hours of flying time. Everything gets old. Entropy is a terrible, terrible thing with regard to existence, but it's there. So the big thing about this is the branch of Indians knew that they were, as they were focusing on and looking at things around the country, they themselves had been brought to the attention of many different elements of both the ring knockers, the Satanists, and the police state. And for this reason there are some precautions they took which I will remind you of an idea of how foresighted they were. They didn't have a lot of money but what they did have they used properly. You might recall that they suspected that something was wrong so they ran a separate ground line away from the Branch Davidian location to another location cross country separate from where the actual regular phone lines were. Which, if you recall, the spies were watching the house from the old migrant housing. The housing units are up beyond the Branch Davidian property. That's where the phone exchange was. And every time that somebody would get on the phone, if the phone started to act up, they'd look out and there was one of the characters that was a supposed student from one of the colleges out there fiddle farting around the box where all the phone connections were, which is where the wiretap was. So this is a multi-faceted situation. with a lot of other activity that if it's not covered properly, misdirects, I should say misdirects the actual intent of the parties involved. Now remember that if something had been passed on by the JDL and the Khmer Kahane crew, the period of weapons would have to be typically steel products. And what I mean by that is, again, guys, the M16A1s didn't really come into significant service with most reserve or National Guard units until the very middle or end of the 70s. And the dominant weapons that were in inventory were, as I said before, the M1 Garand, M1 carbine, M1, M2, and M3 carbine, because remember, the M2 and M3 are the select fire variant. But all of them were still in service. All of them. They hadn't gotten rid of them. This isn't 2020 or the year 2000. This is the year we're talking 1975 and before. Now, I will point out that one of the reasons that a significant change in the policy of securing arms and changing the arms that took place was because of JDL and other leftist organizations attacking and robbing stealing from National Guard and other armories around the country. Traditionally, the arms rooms were single barrier type arms rooms. What do I mean by that? It was like a bank vault. You had a single bank vault door, you opened the bank vault door, and then there's racks and racks and racks of weapons. What changed was a policy of multi-chamber security levels, in other words, more doors to break through. And so a major change took place in either A, they completely get away with the armory, and negated it completely or they built a new armory and of course meanwhile moved out the weapons until the new armory was put in place with multiple tiers of baffle slash doors, chambers and protection. I know this because I physically inspected facilities like this if you recall in the 70s. The big thing about this again is that And let me give you an example. What would the weapons be that would be found in the National Guard Reserve or ROTC arsenals in 1968? Well, from top to bottom. The M1 Garand, M1 Kerbin, DAR, some Browning machine guns possibly, depending on the arsenal. In addition to that, in handguns, it would have been the 1911 Smith and Wesson Model 10 in a number of different variants. a Colt detective model or Colt service model in either the two inch or the four inch barrel. As I mentioned 1911 is already in the inventory, already knew about that. So there would also be a number of 22 caliber bolt action training weapons, varied depending upon what era they were purchased but still in service because it's the 1960s and 70s. World War II was only 20 years earlier. But there wouldn't be an oak correction. There would be two other weapons that might be in inventory. Might. There might be some Thompson's depending on the state and there could be some M3 grease guns. If you're an armored unit the M3 grease gun was issued right through up until just a few short years ago. I don't know that they discontinued it completely. But the grease gun, the M3 was out there in force in the 1960s and 70s because it was so prolific from World War II. and every armor unit had a mass quantity of them. So that's the inventory of weapons you would expect to see pop up. There wouldn't be M16, not even M16A1s or E1s popping up from any of the guard armories. They didn't have them. They didn't receive any significant number until the middle and late 70s. So, they were there, probably a very small, small percentage, and there was an expedited process of transferring from the steel rifles to the aluminum guns with the end of the Vietnam War. The biggest issue being a large quantity of M16A1s were brought from Vietnam or from different active units as they retired and came back to the US or their arsenal or inventory did. In some cases it didn't, it was just handed over to the Vietnamese. But a big chunk of them were brought back, they were reconditioned in 1976, a program in 1976 and 1977. in which a vast quantity of M16A1s were refurbished that were originally active military, those weapons were then transferred to the reserve and to the National Guard until the numbers were depleted or eventually they chose to actually pull from the strategic reserve and hand out brand new M16A1s from Hydromatic and Colt. And for that reason, oh and also I think Iver Johnson. Iver Johnson? I think so, yes. Anyway, they wouldn't be M16s. If they were M16s, they were stolen from someplace else or they were acquired in transit, but they weren't from the armory thefts because they wouldn't be there. Just a heads up, guys. Remember, you have to have proper perspective with regard to looking at an incident and then do the math accordingly to calculate what would you be looking for? What would you be hunting for? Now, did the Branch Davidians have M1As in service? Yeah, they did. In fact, I will remind you that it was an M1A that took out the helicopters that were overhead, two out of the three. But it was not select fire. The individual was using a semi-automatic weapon. He was one of the younger members of the branch Davidians when they were originally under attack as the ATF strafed the buildings He went to the arms room. He pulled an M1A and a handful of magazines He went to one of the inner court windows and as they were strafing the area he exposed himself dumped a magazine strip face first into one of the helicopters and damaged the Hit personnel and damaged the aircraft forcing it to withdraw The second aircraft came in on the same sweep to strafe sideways across the building. He exposed himself again. It is believed that that's when he was hit. And it was probably a mortal wound. He was killed, but he succeeded in driving off all of the aircraft. The third one was a command aircraft. And the coward on board fell back once he realized that his ass was grass and lawnmower was going through it. And he might get his butt shot. But we let the rest of his crews take a hit in the process. So anyway, as far as the basic concept, the story goes, I would be questioning that they received the weapons. There may have been a conversation about it. If the weapons were acquired or were passed on, then my logic would be that they were not on the property. but rather off the property or stored somewhere or maybe somewhere else because they were not publicly acquired and for propaganda purposes they wanted to make sure they banged a gong. Now they may not have wanted to if these weapons were provided not so much stolen but provided by elements of the US government to the Israeli operatives on American soil. And that is as likely as not. In fact, that's more likely than any situation. So if they were the more modern and more sophisticated weapons, let's just say it's most likely that they were certainly off the books and probably stolen. But they were stolen with the cooperation of elements of the US government working with the Israelis on the ground inside the US. That would be my bet, the situation being what it is. So, hopefully that again, as far as in particular, did that actually happen the way it's described? There may have been a miscommunication or maybe misunderstanding of who was doing what, but there were many, many, many different elements to what happened with the Branch Davidians and why they were attacked. They were a well-connected group. They actually had a lot of intelligent individuals. That's the part that everybody makes the mistake of thinking, oh, they were a bunch of hicks and they were just goofy, crazy religious people and well, yeah, they were religious. Okay, there's no doubt about that. But they weren't hicks. They came from a wide spectrum of the wide range of backgrounds. And they were actually pretty much up to speed with communications on a level that was superior to most people at the time with regard to computers, only because of the background of the people that were there. People think that that might be nefarious, but it's like no. A lot of individuals, for a number of different reasons, might connect with a group like that. Personal choice issues, those are always something unique. And they are, were the right place at the right time and unfortunately also to a degree the wrong place at the right time because we all know what the end result was. So it doesn't have to be nefarious. It just happens. Again, unique individuals with unique skills. There are a lot of people out there. We got the thinkers, the other side has got the stinkers. A wide variety of people participate in the Patriot Movement who genuinely have an interest in their particular subject, but also feel that they are kindred or like-minded spirit with regard to other activities. That is how these people come together. That is how these things happen. The enemy is especially fearful when that takes place because a diverse group of people that are mechanically competent and capable and acquire technical skills beyond what the enemy possesses to a degree, well of course everybody that's doing something like that is perceived as a threat. That's why they're doing what they're doing now with regard to their actions against the United States. Anyway, hopefully it gives kind of an answer. I would question until I see the details about what it is that's supposed to have been transferred, because I think I've mapped that out for everybody. What do we look for? And again, motivation, what's the need? I would point out that for the most part, a good portion of the idea that you need Government weapons to actually succeed is something we've been trying to break people of for a very long time. There isn't much the government has. It's as good as what we possess. Does everybody understand that? Government inventory isn't all that great. It's nice to have quantity. There's a thing about stacking stuff up. Like I said, everybody's always excited about stacking stuff up. But... Guys, most of what you possess is actually superior to what government has available in the way of arms and munitions. They have quantity, but they don't necessarily have quality. That's something that we have a leg up on in general. So just something to think about there. Well, you've got a government, blah, blah, blah. It's kind of like, oh, it was the falling skies. My memory was jogged about that because of something that one of you sent the other day. Falling Skies has kind of disappeared out of everybody's memory because it's back in the tail lights. Sci-fi series. It's based invaders, wiped out the governments in so many minutes. We've been at war with them. The people have been at war with them. They're kind of like in a demi-revolt against the space aliens, but it's kind of one-sided. And the whole angle is always trying to get to the, was originally trying to get to the government arsenal and it's like the government arsenal would be A, not much better than anything that they show the troops carrying, space aliens being relatively smart, probably of course, and were constantly trying to use the military munitions as bait. So it's avoid like plague time, okay? The same is true with regard to operations in general. Guys, if we focus on building our own, we build better. If we focus on quantity and cost, we build better. I think you're all seeing now, didn't the government buy the SIG 320? Did everybody knew that the SIG 320 had a problem? Yup. Did the government buy it anyway? Yup. Do you think they bought it because they were bought and paid for horrors? Probably. But they had a problem with it. They should have known. Who's to say they didn't know? Somebody slid a big brown envelope under the table. So do you think if the government has a SIG 320 that their guns are all better than yours? Anyone? All I've got is a high point. Hey, at least my high point, if you're putting a holster, it doesn't go off on you. Or if you're sitting in the holster, it doesn't go off on you, does it, guys? Have you noticed that? So, SIG. Well, high point at least is one step up, if not a whole lot of steps up. Right? Right. You're not supposed to think that way. But the government stuff would be better. You mean like a SIG P, like the 320 thing? M17M8, who cares what the government nomenclature thing is, other than just avoid like the plague, right? That's the one thing you do know now. Everybody's being told, avoid the SIG like a plague. Hmm, but that's a government gun. It's supposed to be a better gun It's supposed to be what you think you need to take off the shelf because it's a no, it's dangerous Unreliable could shoot you mark and it's not supposed to just an idea. Go ahead Yeah, the three the 320 is just fine as long as you carry it, you know without one in the chamber Right make sure you're right right before you you know, it's that's like an old-school carry Really great. Well, that's that's what we've been saying. That's why I've been saying everybody's like yeah If I in fact again, I got to say this before we go any farther guys right now SIG 320 barrels for 1998 apiece right now and Glock barrels over at Aim surplus comm But the but the SIG barrels were listed first But if you go over to aim surplus comm aim a I am aim surplus everybody write this down AIMS Surplus, they have barrels for $20 apiece for Glocks, including threaded barrels. But also for the SIG 320, because that's one of the other dominant guns that people they were making spare barrels for here recently. So guess what? You're talking $20 a barrel apiece for Glocks, including threaded barrels. But also for the SIG 320 because that's one of the other dominant guns that people they were making spare barrels for here recently. So guess what? You're talking $20 a barrel. That's one of the other dominant guns that people they were making spare barrels for here recently. So guess what? You're talking $20 a barrel. They're dominant guns that people they were making spare barrels for here recently. So, guess what? You're talking $20 a barrel at aimsurplus.com. There's been a couple of really great buys in the last couple of days. I mentioned that 10 pack of bolt carriers, complete AR15 bolt carriers. $420 for 10 bolt carriers complete. That's $42. And free shipping. But that's a different company. Right now, barrels. Barrels, barrels for the SIG 320 and for a multiple number of different locks for 20. And they had some of the fancier barrels. The one was ported by the way. I think it's gone. I'll guarantee by the time we get there that one's sold out. But at least we got it out on the air again. Thank you for bringing it up. in a roundabout way. Well, okay, first of all guys it's already federalized That's why the that's why DC is the problem it is does everybody understand that now is he saying that he's gonna put troops on the ground there? Is that it because that would be nice, but you know what? Congress runs As a federal mechanism there they go to what is it article one section six or article one section four It's already federalized It's just that they haven't been stepping up and doing anything In fact, let's remind everybody is is the is DC a state? No Is DC a territory? No What does DC stand for? Go ahead anybody jump in there DC District calling the alum. Yeah Okay, so the District of Columbia It's a district that has a totally, you know, words mean something here people. That means it's a totally different bird from the rest of the mechanisms of government as designated. Now remember, let's go through this step by step. The District of Criminals, I mean the District of Columbia, It was supposed to be what? It was supposed to be the neutral territory that all of the states could come to to deal with state by state and or the states with international order issues. It is the sifting point for international issues, number one, but it was also a neutral or nonpartisan location where no single state, no state would have any overt authority. The biggest issue was where could you put it because no matter where you put it, the capital of the nation. Somebody would contest because it would be close to one state or another. Well, because we only had 13 states at the time, I'll bet we did add quite a few more right away. The District of Columbia was as central as could be expected considering that we were a coastal country, that our states ran up and down the length of the coast of these United States back in the day. So, they did okay for what they had. The point was that the District of Criminals has no voting authority. It was freestanding and was the only area of the country that was allowed to be managed by the Fed, by the Fed-Dur-Rol government. And you know what? They haven't done a very good job, have they people? You ever been there? You know, my first experience with Washington, D.C. was when I was very, very young and in the military. And I went there and I was staying at the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps Hotel, which is located one block away from The bus depot that's that you can find the the I don't know if it's the old bus depot now or the new one It was the new one at the time but hell that's what 1975 so you figure out it's probably considered the old bus depot now, but back in the day I came out the front door. There's a little bit of a hill And the little in front of the the hotel which by the way was a classic World War two cement block construction It's probably been torn down But it was little cubicle type hotel rooms were set up for military era World War two You come out this little set of this little sidewalk it it it empties out onto the sidewalk parallel obviously with the road There was a T junction off to the right. It was about probably 930 10 o'clock at night. It was just after sunset I step outside and this Buick goes by with the windows out all the way around. Looks like something right out of the road warrior. I got Ted Poldwell with me and I think Cheerio and a couple others were standing there and the first car goes by and they're putting bullets out the ass into the window there and up behind it comes another big-ass Galaxy 500 with most of the windows out of it and they're going to town like it's right out of the road warrior wailing away at each other and they go winging by it probably 55 miles an hour maybe 60 up over the hill lifting off the ground a little bit and back down over the other side of this short little, wasn't very tall, just a little bit of a bump in the terrain. And that's our first taste of the nightlife of Washington, D.C. So if everybody thinks that all this crap is new with regard to what's going on, it's been a shipwreck for decades and the perverts, the queers have been in charge for a very long time. Nothing's changed. Nothing's going to change until we have an American war for independence and we shoot the foreigners out of our country. Until we do that, I don't care what Trump pulls out of his ours as far as what he claims he's going to do. Washington is the way it is because it's the way they want that the Jewish mob wanted it. And now all of a sudden there what? Pissing and moaning about it? Give me a break. It's exactly the way it's been for decades. This is not anything new. It's just arbitrarily they report so that they can make noise. Oh my goodness. Oh, it's terrible in Washington. Yes, yes it is. It's very bad in Washington. It always has been. What's your point? It's like we've never seen before. It's like we've seen many times before for years. And like one of the other things about that, what gets me about this is again, The Epstein types guys were rife all through the system. And we've talked about this. We've repeatedly talked about this on this program for decades. Everybody warned everybody about this stuff. Oh, you're crazy. There's nothing like, oh, now all of a sudden somebody's got to burr up their ass about it. And look what we discovered. Really? Well, this ain't nothing new as far as I can see. So what have you discovered? Other than the fact that you know, what's the old term? Pull the scale off of your eyes and again the perverts, you know, no no bounds in Washington DC and they will continue to be the way that they be until we decide to clear their ass out of our country and until we do that the queers the petals of sickness so that are run by Israel hell are going to continue to cause problems for us. Until we get the Israel Hell crew out of our country, we are going to continue to be a sewer, which is what we've got right now. And that sewer was created by the people from Israel Hell polluting and damaging our country intentionally. So again, how do you feel about that, Mark? Well, I think I expressed myself pretty well. As far as the federalizing go, they're supposed to be, but they're not doing their job. You know again now are they gonna militarize it see that's really what they're yapping about is that really what trumpet wants of course the Jewish Mafia does because Step-by-step they need to create a national crisis. We've been talking about this by creating the national crisis Remember you're gonna demand a bigger police state We all need to demand a bigger police state without a bigger police state the police state couldn't be big and bigger Which is what we need Which no, we don't need. In fact, the problem is the big-ass police state that we are presently having to deal with that has caused the problems. Four years of this same stinking police state escorted 30 million illegal aliens into the United States. Why am I supposed to think that those turds are going to in any way shape or form be a solution? It was planned for the last four years to screw America and do what everybody claimed. Well, we're not going to do that like they did in Europe. And the Jewish mob, the Jewish-slash-Israeli non-governmental organizations paraded with the federal government's wink and nod of vast multi-million man and woman army into America. Guess they were going to do it after all so the Patriot movement's been a hundred percent correct every step of the way Hey mark Trump Trump is not going to be the so go ahead Trump's not going to be the solution on this Trump is Trump is already part of the problem Been part of the problem for quite some time after all he's going to do it lock down the country again, too He's already happened about it. Go ahead. Yeah, what I was calling about mark Last I think it was last Thursday You were talking about when you ran a gun dealer, worked for a gun dealer, you said you sold a lot of Guins or a lot of Bushmasters. Was it the Guin built rifle or was it the Bushmaster that they called the assault rifle but it was like the Guin but it had the metal top instead of the cast aluminum top? Well, it had both. Okay. I don't know. I had two sources. Number one was the direct manufacturer, but the other was a source near Hellea, Florida. And I actually had all three, well, I think there's four variants on the Bushmaster pistol. You know, the one that, you know, it rests in the arm. It's got the bullpup design, but the pistol grip pivoted so you could carry it on your left arm or right arm forearm. I had an uncounted number of those that I sold and then in the rifle the first variant was actually I think all aluminum and the that was the top eject also remember it had the same charging handle and control system as the pistol And then, but it had the wood stock. Remember, it didn't have a plastic stock. It had actually a blackened wooden stock with an M16-type pistol grip. And it was the box-type receiver. But it still took the M16 standard magazine. And then later, we had the side injection variant, which, yeah, I would say it was 50-50. Because I sold many, many, many of those. for about $480 to $500 apiece at that time. There's a reason I'm asking these questions. The Gwen had the talking knob on the top, even for the pistol, but the Bushmaster The mechanism was very close to the glint, but it ejected out the side. It also had the caulking handle on the side. Were they reliable? That's what I'm really concerned about. Forgotten Weapons has, okay. I have a problem with some of the stuff that he's done. Okay. No, Forgotten Weapons is a great series. By the way, before we go any farther. I think it's one of the best single series that everybody listening should watch. Thank you for bringing that up. Forgotten Weapons covers a lot of different arms. However, one of the problems with doing weapons after the fact is that a lot of arms that are out there, the people are repeating or parroting from people who were snobs at the time. When I ran OpFor, I had probably 20 Bushmaster light rifles that we carried in the system Of those We never had a malfunction I wouldn't I don't know they I wouldn't say that they were as nice as the day woos because the day was a better fit and finish But the bush master rifles that we carried never had gave us a problem The nice thing is is that they were unique looking pattern so they actually had that a K flavor to them which we needed for the op four forces and And I didn't have any issues. With the Samiano pistol, there would be usually you'd have one gun out of what, maybe 60 or 70 was finicky. One in that and I can recall. And it was a complete case set that had every flash fighter they made for the Air 15. The guy had picked up probably 30 round mags. He had a drum back when drums were hard to get. And not any of the drums we have now. I can't remember the name of the company even. It was only out of Kentucky that made the drum. And the weapon had a problem with extraction for a bit until we changed out the extractor. And it turns out it was just a formics with whatever production from the factory, obviously. Other than that, we didn't have any problem with reliability with any of them. When I listen to some of the stuff, it's like it's echo chamber from somebody else's usually a snipe. Well, three years ago, Forgotten Weapons done a test of one of the actual Bushmaster assault rifle. But what happened is he had light primer strikes. So he either had a worn firing pin or he had a weak old hammer spraying. But that was more than likely a problem. Well, hold that. Hold that. No, here's the third issue. Remember, it's something I've talked about. Most everybody, if they got the Bushmaster burned them. What I mean by burned them is, man, people taking ammo is cheap if you knew where to look. And you could take that thing out to the range and you could cook a case of ammo. So the third issue that I've said many times, nobody ever looks at, disassemble the bolt. OK? Take everything apart. break out the bore cleaner, put it into that channel for the firing pin, and clean the bejesus out of it, and let it soak for a bit. And then get your old scraper out and scrape the fascia on the inside of that Bushmaster bolt. Like the AK in a long long long long long run with an AK if you clean that out you're gonna see carbon blue black Oh, it looks like black cold water coming out of the front of that that firing pin port and that's because as it as it reciprocates and comes back Remember guys, there's a certain amount of carbon that flows back around the case. Well, actually the case is being ejected and It works into the firing pin channel And so what happens is you get a cake or build up in there, and it takes a long time by the way, but if you get enough of it, remember it's carbon, so it collects moisture. When it collects moisture, it also can oxidize, you gotta watch for that too. So one of the most common things not done is to break down the whole bolt system. And I would say this also for everybody listening with any other rifle you've got, AKM1A, slash M14, or the AR-15, it's the same issue. If you're going to burn a lot of ammo and you also have a good, a wide mix of ammunition, you're going to have different variants in the amount of residue generated, carbon residue generated by the round. And typically, that is something that nobody looks at. And I'd be willing to, like you said, if you get a soft strike, The other thing is, remember, I don't know who is making all the parts for the Bushmaster. Most everything is interchangeable internally with the AR. At that time, the Florida production operations were building a lot of their own parts. Let me give you an example of, we just talked about this in the last hour. Historically, let's think about something. Why build a universal carbene when you have M1 carbine parts up the Jesus everywhere. You ever think about that? You ever seen a universal carbine? No, not really. Okay, you probably have, but you wouldn't notice it right away because what it is, universal and plain field. Remember plain field? Plain field did the plain field receivers, but all military parts, right? Okay, what's interesting universal car beans are Where somebody said why don't we just make an exact copy of the carbine where we're gonna stamp everything we can Go look this up universal carbines now. They're all worth more money now used to be they were the dogs on the market But now because they're ain't they're old carbines now. They're worth something again or a lot more But the universals used to buy them all day for $55 to $75. They're mostly stamped carbine. In other words, anywhere where you could normally say mill the part, machine the part, they went with stampings. Now they were built down in Hillea, Florida. Look up Hillea and you'll notice that a whole pile of manufacturers ended up down there. What were they doing? They were doing rent a revolution arms for the CIA and Mossad and other people. And they were the, that's why like I said, this whole thing with Florida, let me qualify something. That stupid ass Gator base that they just announced, the Gator prison. in the middle of the swamp. Why was that airport there? Yeah, why was that airport there? It wasn't there for flying passengers in and out to visit the alligators. It was an old CIA spook and cooke facility. That's what it was. And back in the day, you got to put everything into perspective. The bottom of Florida, you might as well have been in the middle of Arizona. Back in the day in the middle of the Gator Swamp. What would be there? Well if you look at all the other production facilities and example is universal universal We weren't running out of carbine parts But they built this gun dish to literally show that they could make a carbine completely from scratch That looked close enough that the average person would look at the universal carbon and go. Oh, it's a carbine They did send some of these to Vietnam. They sent probably, as I mentioned earlier, both the Plainfield and Universal, they made these mimics, these copy guns. They also made, remember the little enforcer carbine or the little, basically they're a carbine pistol. Maybe you have. Back years ago they were very very common. They were all over the place. They've all disappeared. I mean they're now collectors items in and of themselves. But those guns were sent overseas to Vietnam. Universal made 10,000 or so at least and they say maybe as many as 20,000. Plainfield made 20 to 27,000. They shipped them over before the end of Vietnam and they were using them over there. The Vietnamese loved them. Vietnamese police loved that gun. But why am I bringing it up? Well, in the same area, this is the same place where Bushmaster and all these other companies who had all these unique connections where they came about. And the Bushmaster family of rifles, no matter what variant, its first real purpose was that it was sent to Central and South America as a rental revolution gun. Okay, well, Mike, what I was going to... What I'm trying to get... Yeah, I'm looking for some specific information here. Wow. What go ahead, okay? Yeah, why they? Color don't go ahead. You're a rain going Go ahead. Oh, okay. Well anyhow go on on the bush master That's supposed to be a long-stroke piston gun. Do you? When when they had the gas blow-off on it was that was just like a gas blow-off hole that they had with it Or what did they do? How did they set up the gas system? Do you know? Well, originally, it did quite similar to the way the regular AK was set up in that they had a canted port. Basically, they wanted to be as simple as possible. So what they did is they used a one-step bore on a taper to create the gas deflection, to move the gas. There's one model that I've seen that had, whatever again, however they made I don't know, had actually more like what we would think of as an AK gas block with the way it was set up as far as how they constructed it to attach to the barrel. Personally, I think that either design, I think minimizing is your best choice. If I was building a light rifle, the Bushmaster design is the Sten gun of the light rifle family. I think that one of the reasons that the hacks don't want the gun around is because the weapon could be built almost anywhere. If you had AR-15 barrel, the whole issue of this, guys, is Certain weapons have been made to disappear because they're from the era when it was how can we make it cheap and fast and make a lot of them? Well, they can't have that if you're going to disarm America and you've got to slob everybody's brains out to thinking that it's got to be very, very sophisticated or it doesn't, won't work. The Sten gun would be my submachine gun choice if I were cranking out a shitload of stuff. The only thing I would do is switch out the magazine well to take Glocks. I take a make a cast aluminum. or a cast metal, even a pot metal magazine well, and also be the wraparound channel for the Sten. And I'd be running whatever pistol mag was the most common, and Glocks are the most common right now. In a light rifle, the AR-15 or the AK is the mag to use. So you're going to go 7.62x39 or 5.56 or possibly 300 Blackout or something where you don't change the bolt face, you don't change the extractor, and the only thing is what barrel do you have. And that's why I was calling about because see the Bush master is a very simple design on the, I guess I'm going to call it for the sake of the action bar on top. The bolt carrier is welded to that bar. And then it looks to me like the fire controls are AR-15. We know the magazine's AR-15. The only complicated parts of that entire firearm is the bolt and the flutes in the front reach block. That's it. That's the only complicated parts in it. And that could literally be made in a garage. The jig that you need to make that upper could be made in a garage. The lower doesn't have to be aluminum. Go ahead. Go ahead. Right. No, no, no. Real quick. It was. If you look at Bushmaster, the company, literally back in the day, let's not think like we have now with all the cool toys we have. We're looking at post-World War II production with a small machine shop that basically took advantage of the leftovers from the military industrial mechanism. You buy off certain government equipment. They had maybe six primary machines in the shop for Bushmaster when they were building that rifle. And the drill press constituted probably two of them. That rifle was purely an off-the-shelf quick production gun that you could hand out to a whole shitload of third-party people and it would have the same firepower as its expensive counterpart. Now, how long would it last? Let me point something out. If you go through YouTube or, I don't know, whatever else might be out there in those videos, you'll see people that have actually recovered a Bushmaster or you have some people going, this picture as I've noticed when you do a search, what is this rifle? And somebody goes, oh, it's a Bushmaster. Well, it might be the Bushmaster Mark I or it could be the Mark III. But, you know, whichever model, again, the reason I would say that there's a 1, 2, 3, and 4 is that there were variations that they came up with that were minor but were not going to affect the understanding of the shooter to put the weapon together. In other words, they were a fixed parts, they were locked in place, you couldn't change them, so they weren't relevant to teaching somebody something new. If all I'm going to do is go, here's a gun, magazine goes here, work the action, point at enemy, bang, bang, bang, oh, it works! That's what they were looking for. And for every, all the other crap, go ahead. Yeah, the Bushmaster is actually a simpler design than the AR-180, than the Sterling, and even the Australian leader. It's even simpler than those. And it could be made with stuff at the hardware store, going to a local machine shop. It's very simple. That's why I'm curious about it. It was streamlined as a lighter rifle. Remember, it went with a pencil barrel, just like the regular M16, you know, A1 for the era. And so in its class and based upon what were the requirements laid down by the people who were buying it, which again were CIA, foreign operatives, Central, South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia again. But there was so much junk left over in the Southeast Asia that they typically bought local. But for the other areas, no. They were supposing a hand and this rifle was user friendly. Now, when it died, it died. It typically was noble death, it wasn't rebuilt. And that's what you see with a lot of the Bushmaster type rifles that you see on the left of them that people are talking about. They're tired, they're long and they're too, they were abused and they weren't repaired. But considering that all of that was the case, the gun is mostly still functional. Which is really bizarre. Yeah, but we have access to modern alloys, like 4130, 4140. You can make that a little bit better, and today it wouldn't cost that much money to actually build that gun a little bit better. And then from 8 o'clock, we will return on WBCQ and Liberty Creek radio. God bless you. Thank you. You're welcome. Welcome to another dangerous episode of Forbid Knowledge. My name is Craig. You are listening live if you are listening to me at 7.05 PM Eastern Time on August 26. You'll be listening live. Hey, you can call in and participate. I don't have any notes in front of me. I just turned on the computer. It would be completely ad-lib about things that I've learned here in the last, well, I guess my life if you want to put it that way. That I, mostly about, I plan on talking about what's going on in the world because things are just, seems like they're falling apart. Things have just never been so in flux as what's going on in our world today. All the different things going on in our president. Oh boy. Are you really still, are any maggot people listening to me, are you really still, are you really still in love with this guy? I mean he's doing so much, it's so wrong. It almost seems like he's a foreign agent trying to bring the country down. And of course that might be a real possibility since after all part of the New World Order is to bring down all the strong countries, bring them down to the world level of a totalitarian socialist form of government that We're being destroyed from within. So, gotta bring the strong countries down to have worldwide socialism. Anyway, hopefully I'm about to apologize right now if I do get cut off during the show. It's because of the phone I have now that is a, I'm not having a wonderful iPhone experience. The first iPhone I've ever had, I've always had Android in the past. I'm not enjoying the iPhone. I don't know what the big deal is about it other than it's expensive and it's some kind of status symbol, I guess. I don't know. I didn't buy it. It was given to me by, well, my mother passed away and it was her phone that was given to her by my sister. My sister already had an iPhone and it was an older version, so she just gave it to me. So I got stuck with an iPhone and I've been needing to get another Android, another phone because mine was being destroyed by Motorola, I mean I'm like no other way to put it really kept telling me everything was full and even even after Deleting app after app after app. They kept telling me everything was full I'm even send text messages at some point and delete another app and for soon I had almost no apps and Keeping the photos all cleared nothing nothing in storage, and it's just calling me cool Anyway, so they were planned obsolescence. I'm sure trying to force me to buy a new phone So when this phone dies, this iPhone, I definitely will be going back to Android, I don't know how many people like the iPhones. Anyway, they both follow you, track you, so neither one is doing that respect. You've got to give credit to the people who seem to be able to live without cell phones for that very reason, because I haven't been able to. What I'd be able to do is show. Well, I could if I could back to the computer with Internet, but then And you're just tracking you too. Everything you do, every keystroke you make. You're being watched. Don't kid yourself. So I had been listening while I'm out working. I didn't really... The reason I mentioned about the iPhone is because my battery is low. I've got like 35%. I don't know if it's going to last a whole hour or not. We'll see a speakerphone. It was already below 10% when I ran back to the house and I plugged in. Try to get a little bit of energy before the show about 10 minutes before the show and it told me something about water is detected in the slug or something with no water in it. Had it with me the whole day outside working and it wasn't raining. So it wouldn't even charge. So luckily I kept trying it, trying, put in different plugs and finally it went. Started charging a little bit. So I got about 10 minutes before the charge. My other battery, my Android battery will last literally days. This phone I can't get for the last whole day. Because I listen, while I'm working, I got a little system set up where I have ear, depending on what I'm doing. Today I was using a chainsaw and cutting paths, cutting a lot of brush, debris, logs, things out of the way, trying to create paths on my property so I can get... the vehicles and materials through places that have never been, that I've never even been able to walk through in a good 20 some years. The growth is just incredible. But anyway, I listened while I worked with earpieces. And unfortunately with the iPhone, if you use earpieces, then you can't bring an auxiliary battery plug in at the same time because of the same plug. Unless I get Bluetooth and I don't really want that kind of nonsense. Again, because Android, at least all Android's ever had, he had a separate plug for headphones, for earplugs, for earpieces. And then iPhone, it all comes from the same plug. And my all new things. So I'm not enjoying iPhone. But I listen to the two main channels I've been listening to, YouTube, is where I'm getting my most of my information. I'm not going to get it off of, well, sometimes I listen to NPR, but that's a total waste of time. National Prop, again, a radio. I'm glad that Trump did something about that. However, it's an attack on free speech. But the government shouldn't be funding so-called free speech. They shouldn't have their hands in it at all. But yet with NPR, the federal government is giving money to NPR to continue their propaganda. And like was said by Trump, I think probably about a year ago, a tool of the the Deep State, the tool on what I'm, I can't remember how he put it. He was attacking NPR on his truth social about being a government propaganda, which it is, but so is all the other networks. So in CNN and MSNBC and CBS and ABC, and you're all propaganda tools for the government. But on YouTube there's still places you can go to listen to podcasts generally, independent media, They can tell you things that are going to be much more truthful than what the mainstream media tell you, or the legacy media sometimes they call it. The legacy media has been lying my whole life. Now, back with any other war that I've had during my life, well actually I've never had a war during my lifetime. Yeah, I've never had a war in my lifetime because, you know, Afghanistan wasn't a war, neither was, neither was, uh, Vietnam, neither was, Korea, well that wasn't during my lifetime, but. None of these were wars because a war needs to be declared by Congress. Then they weren't declared wars, so they were just police actions which are unlawful and unconstitutional. So, you know, technically I've never had a war. I never had a war. But anyway, during these past events, all throughout my life, we've really only been able to rely on what the mainstream media saw. So legacy media, the crooks I just mentioned here just a little earlier. We really had no choice. We had to either listen to it and either believe it or not. No real good way to tack check anything. But now we've got the internet. You can tack check. You can go to other sources. So why do you still listen to the legacy media? For those of you who are. Now, granted, most of the people who listen to me now, listen to my voice now, listen to alternatives. But anybody who's still listening to the legacy media, you're not getting the whole story. And I wasn't getting the whole story my entire life. It started changing for me when I bought a shortwave radio back in the 90s. Then there was a choice. There was something different. There was something that could get you more accurate information. Started out listening to William Cooper and Brent Johnson and Joyce Riley and Alex Jones. I listened to a lot of these programs, Vogue rights. I used to listen to these programs back in the day. I don't know how many of them still are. I know Alex Jones is still around, unfortunately. But I used to be used to be able to get an alternative form of media. That was before the internet. Sounds you're really only other option and I didn't know about that until the 90s when I started reading some things about what is a shortwave. Whoever uses shortwave radio, that sounds like something archaic or something that only third world countries use, right? Well... There was a lot there. So that's the way I started. Of course, this network you're listening to me right now, they were, I think at times they were on shortwave radio as well. And probably still is. Probably still are uncertain, maybe underground shortwave radio station. Maybe, I don't know. But anyway, shortwave radio is a place you could go. So if you don't have internet, you should at least have a shortwave radio. But you could also access this, of course, this network by your phone. And there's probably others you could as well. And I don't know the details of that. This program started, my program started here, when my public access channel getting attacked and eventually shut down. Public access, I had four different public access channels at one point, but one by one they just kept getting attacked. Well, it's part of the government controlled media, basically, public accesses. So I wasn't able to really get my message out. And I was off the air for about a year or two until it had contact me, wanted to know if I could be on this network. And this network, I knew about it. It was on the air, and I think at the time it was on shortwave radio, because or micro-FM in the area that I was nearby, I think micro-FM in Dexter, Michigan, I believe it was, back in the 90s, I think, is when probably they started. I don't know if that's a fact. That could correct me if I'm wrong. And this was kind of before the internet as well. The internet was kind of just starting, but that was a way. There's micro FM stations around the country. Let's listen to Pastor, Pastor Shortcutter, Rick Shortcutter. He used to listen to him. He was on shortwave, but he was also on local, local to me anyway, out of Adrian, Michigan. He was, he had a micro FM station out of his church. And I went to visit them several times down in the air and talk with him. But he was, he ran that station for, many years, probably about two or four years, until they shut him down or he shut himself down. I can't remember how I find the end of it. But there's all these other sources you can listen. Now you have the Internet, there's no excuse to stick with the legacy media. There's really no excuse. Now granted, not everything on the Internet is good. There's a lot of lies on the Internet too, of course. A lot of misdirections, a lot of... But if you get rid of... if you have cable TV and you're still listening to those cable TV news networks, you hear... that's... The legacy media too. Even though they got rid of the three, the acronyms of the three letters, the ABC, CBS, NBC. Even though they got rid of that, well CNN is one, but that was an internet based one. Well, not internet based, it was cable TV based. Because that's kind of what came next. That's where we got most of our news from at that point starting around, in the 90s, right? Early 90s? When did cable, when did cable TV come really to fruition? Maybe late 80s. No, probably the 80s. Came by in the 80s. And so we thought that was an alternative, but it really wasn't because all the cable news networks were the same propaganda tool of the government, essentially. But now you have no excuse. You can listen to different podcasts. I don't know if this particular show is called a podcast that didn't even come into existence until long after I started the show. So I don't even know if I'm considered a podcast or not. But you have so much out there. And this is my opinion. You can take this for whatever you want. Some of the podcasts I listen to or whatever you want to call them on the internet. These are regular programs that have either daily or weekly shows that you can listen to on YouTube. I don't know if you can listen to anywhere else. I really don't know because I've been doing YouTube. One I mentioned before is by Judge Andrew Napolitano. His channel is called Judging Freedom. And he has an excellent lineup every day, well, every day but the weekends. On Friday he only has one show generally. Sometimes he breaks in on the weekends too with anything breaking. And his guests are top notch, in my opinion. His guests are top notch. I'm going here online because I do have my computer on. And I can just tell you as an example, again the name of his program is called Judging Freedom. Clicking it on now to see what he's had. And he does a live show. In fact, usually about four to five live shows every day. Half an hour long usually. And for instance, tomorrow he's got upcoming. I'm showing Colonel Douglas McGregor. The title of the program is called Does Trump Understand the Russians? And then he also has coming up. Professor John Mearsheimer, a brief history of Israel. Then he also has Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, US troops in Gaza, question mark. Today he had on Phil Giraldi, is Trump heartless? He also had on Max Blumenthal, is Netanyahu desperate? He had Scott Ritter on today, is Trump unhinged? Professor Gilbert Doctorow is optimistic. Hello caller, somebody call him? Nope, I heard somebody say something. Okay, he also had on today, oh actually no yesterday, Lieutenant Colonel Karen Kultalski, US government unhinged, Aaron Mate, Netanyahu and his prosecutors, Ambassador Charles Freeman, genocide and starvation, Professor Jeffrey Sacks, dangerous moves. Chief Genes Fritz, why does the Department of Defense want war? Barry Johnson, Ukraine on its last leg. Barry Johnson, former CIA. And also Reagan, McGovern, former CIA. European paranoia over Russia. Former Ambassador Alastair Crook, will Trump attack Iran again? So this is all just within the past week, some of the programs he's had on. So I would very highly recommend this program. Half an hour. each session and top-notch yes. I really can't find fault with hardly anything any of them say based on my research. Some of them are not as exciting to listen to as others and some of them get really hyped up and get very exciting to listen to. I would also recommend, and I haven't recommended this program before, but basically it has a lot of the same type. I'm going to call it, type it in here. Dialogue works. Now this is a man I don't remember his last name. His first name is Nima. He's actually from Brazil. This program is called Dialogue Works. And let's just see what he had on today because I was listening to him today. Ray McGovern, which I know I mentioned in a previous from Judge DePaul Chateau's channel. Who is Trump 2.0? Lace Maros. Resistance strikes back. Israel fails to disarm the unbreakable force. I didn't listen to that program. I'm talking about Hezbollah. And he's from Syria, so he has good information there. Paul Craig Roberts. That's been a long time since I heard this guy, but I heard him today on the air. Because I think that's one of the guys I used to listen to in the 90s. I wasn't too impressed by him before, really. Does the U.S. want peace or endless conflict? Let's see. What else? Colonel Larry Wilkerson, which I also mentioned on the previous channel, touched moves are unleashing chaos. Mohammed Marandi, he's from Iran, he's a professor from Iran. Iran Supreme Defense Council, I haven't listened to that particular one yet. I've heard him many times on other channels. Iran Supreme Defense Council activated, as a lot of supporters reject disarmament. Anyway, that's another channel I would definitely think you should check out. Even though he's from Brazil, he's not a very exciting guest, a guest host, but he does a decent job and his English is plenty well enough, you'll understand it. A guy named Nima. Nima, let's see, his name is Salty. It's Alkarshid, I guess Alkarshid. Somebody just calls him Nima. Anyway, that's a program I would recommend you listen to. There's other podcasts. Sometimes even the mainstream ones, well I'm calling the mainstream but they're not, like sometimes Joe Rogan does a decent job sometimes. He doesn't really get that political sometimes and he goes on to some conspiracy theories and some other things but Joe Rogan probably everybody's heard that name. Sometimes he's worth listening to depending on who his guest is. Candace Owens, actually another very popular program that She sometimes has some very good information. She usually doesn't have guests, but she has some very good information on her show a lot. I'm surprised the hill she's deciding to die on right now is the McCrone's wife, Bridget McCrone, and whether or not she is a man or was born a man because she's being sued by the French government. Isn't it a podcaster being sued by the French government for defamation, even though she thinks she says, I don't know. It's not an issue that really I think I need to be concerned about much, whether or not Macron is gay and whether his wife is really a he or whatever. I don't know and I don't really care that much, but it's an interesting story to watch and unfold, especially when now the French government is suing her. She's been called the most anti-Semitic person in the country, I think, voted by some poll or something or other, even though she's not anti-Semitic at all. I also listened to, once in a while, I listened to Jimmy Doar. What is the name of his program? Jimmy Doar. He was formerly a, with the Young Turks. And sometimes I listen to the young Turks too. I don't agree with a lot of what they say, but they're right on with certain things like, for instance, things dealing with Israel and Gaza. They're right on with that. They're not right on with a lot of things, but anyway. Okay, The Jimmy Doris Show. That's another show I'd recommend you check out once in a while. He has some guests on sometimes, and he's a comedian. But he used to be on The Young Turks many years ago, but now he's not. And oh, and by the way, Judge Napolitano used to be with Fox News. Before he was an actual federal judge of some kind. Then he went on to Fox News. Anyway, Jimmy Dore was on The Young Turks as a... I don't know if you call him recorder or whatever, but his show is good sometimes. Overall, he's right on with some issues. Other times, he's not. Nobody's 100% right on everything. I can't understand that. some of the information being fed to me, but could very well be wrong by these people. But these are some of the most trusted ones I have found. I just bring them to your attention if you want to try to check them out. If you think you've run a broad news horizon a little bit, if you're still just listening to the MSNBC or NPR or something, then you might want to check out some of these other ones once in a while at least. Get a different opinion. It's good to get them. I listen to NPR. Go get me a run. I listen to NPR. So now I know what they want me to know or want me to think, I should say. Then I go listening to the other sources and find out what I'm not supposed to know. That's the idea behind it, of the idea behind short ways. So I don't recommend you stop listening to CNN or MSNBC, but check out some other sources. There's no reason not to anymore. Unless you're just plain, plumb, worried that of course you're listening to this program, you're not all that worried about the Internet spies knowing you're listening to my voice right now over the Internet. Or maybe you're doing by the phone. Same thing. They know what you've listened to, what you've paid attention to, where you go. So it's already too late for you if you're listening to my voice right now. They already know you're a possible threat in the future, let's say. So, and by listening to any of those shows that I just mentioned, same thing. But you're listening to my voice now, so you're already in that boat. You're already going to be a target if things really come down. And things are cheap progressing, like they are coming down. Trump is bringing us down quicker than any other president in my lifetime. From my perspective, he's bringing us down even quicker. Pretending he's avoids the people he wants to make America great again. Well, he's making it worse I'm sorry So long yours now and he goes on TV. So I stopped five wars No, you did. He started to and kept two more going Yeah the The who team defeated. I don't think so. They're still sinking ships At least two major ships have been sunk since the since we so-called defeated the hootie Well, did you defeat the Hootie or are you just worried about running out of ammunition? That's the latter is what was true. They weren't doing hardly any good, wasting a lot of time and money when they need those bombs for Israel and Ukraine. Then he started the war with Iran and that's not over with folks. Iran is regrouping. Iran is going to be much more prepared the next time. There's not going to be a strike that's going to try to do an instant regime change like they intended to. They had to work down for years, not the Israelis in the US. They ain't going to happen anymore. They didn't defeat them the way they wanted to. They wanted a quick regime collapse and then regime change. And it took them about eight hours to regroup and stuff because they were attacked from within. Spies within their own country. Drones from within their own country. Being attacked from within their own country by things placed there by Israel and the CIA. And they were crippled for a while but then they got on board and they're launching missiles at Israel and eventually Israel had to call uncle because they were getting pummeled like they would have never been pummeled before. But Trump said, oh, I stopped that. I was meaning to stop that. No, you did. Israel was begging you to do something to get him to stop. And so you came up with an agreement with these Iranians for a ceasefire. So we won't do anything anymore. You know, give them false promises like we've always give false promises. The US is really great for breaking treaties and giving false promises about NATO and all sorts of things over the many decades. Since we've been an empire and that's what we have become we've become an empire so things have gotten just progressively worse and he started that war and it's not over with because because Israel still wants it to happen Still wants the regime stage still wants to destroy them because because that's the only really strong country in the Middle East that can literally destroy Israel and they definitely demonstrated that With that 10 day or 12 day missile exchange, whatever it was, Israel was getting pounded like they've never been pounded before. They had to scream uncle. That's the truth of it. You may not believe that if you've listened to Trump or the mainstream media. And that war is not over with. They're getting more help now. They need to strengthen their air defense systems. They need to re-root on all the spies within their country. They've been doing that. And a lot of executions already too over that from what I understand. And they've, they need to revamp and strengthen their air defense systems. They don't have much of an air force. Their air force is anywhere near of a world class like ours might be, or the Russians, for instance, or the Israelis for that matter, because they have our equipment. But they still need to enhance their air defense system and detection, and they are. They're working with the Chinese and the Russians, both creating aid of some sort in the way of technology exchange or whatever military aids and knowledge of weaponry and defense systems. So they're going to be much more ready next time and there will be a next time because Bibi wants it. Bibi, he's got a lot of work to do to... I think they're going to collapse. I honestly think that Israel is going to collapse. Israel was this place that were supposedly, back in after World War II, 1947, 1948, was supposed to be this place where Jewish people could go and live in peace. Well, Bibi Netanyahu has turned into, well, every government in Israel has turned into over the years, but over the decades. But now Bibi Netanyahu, the Israeli crime minister, has turned it into the worst place a Jewish person can go to live. The most unsafe place in the world where a Jewish person can go to live, probably. I mean, maybe there's some other countries that's really unsafe, believe it, as a Jew, I don't know. But that's literally what he was. Anybody that's Jewish and that considers Israel their country, I'd be hopping mad because he's destroying your country. He really is. He's destroying Israel. They become a pariah of the world. You see if you don't know if you look online, Google on YouTube or somewhere and you probably maybe heard of it. Australian bridge protests. There is a massive, massive number about Gaza. Massive Gaza bridge protests. That will get you there. And look at all the thousands of people that crowded onto that bridge. Oh, it's amazing to see. But anyway, all around the world. And that's Australia. Australia is like Like almost the farthest country you can get from Gaza Almost literally. It's like almost far. That's the way you can get and yet they're processing as well a lot of countries are hopping mad that the people of Jordan and Egypt and Turkey are Hopping mad their governments for not intervening and doing something about what's going on there those those regimes Jordan Turkey and Egypt are in grave danger of being overtaken by their own people, of being of the Civil War, because their leaders aren't doing the right thing because they're in bed with the United States and Israel. That's why. But you have a lot of Palisades living in Jordan, for instance, and now, of course, Israel has an house that's going to oust its annex, Gaza, and its annex, the West Bank. These were areas where Palestinians lived. For hundreds of years, thousands of years maybe. Long before the Jews came to those lands. But Israel is for the Israelites, right? Send all those Palestinians home. Get them out of our country. And of course the joke is there and they are home. They've been there long before you. And they're just trying to survive. But Israel is not allowing that to happen. So it's been a... The country of Israel is self imploding morally, economically, militarily. They are imploding. And I don't know how much longer they're going to last, but I don't see them lasting very much longer. I don't think we're looking at it in Israel as anybody ever knew it coming up soon here. I'm not going to make any kind of prediction on dates because we're still protecting them. But we're about ready to run out of ammo ourselves protecting them. Sending all those bombs, sending all our mortar rounds to Ukraine. We've already been out of those for quite a while from what I was saying pretty much. We can't keep up production to feed them. Our Highmars and Pecrets are being shuffled around from Europe now going closer to Ukraine. That war has been over for more than two years, folks. You don't know it yet. Putin might be really going to be making his final move here soon, but also, their scuttlebutt out of Washington. One of the sources that I listen to, I can't remember everything, was Larry Wilkerson that ties the Pentagon under Colin Powell. He used to have some of those people he listens to that are still in the Pentagon as there's something about ready to happen where they're even planning on possibly starting like a legitimate war. Well, it wouldn't be legitimate because it wouldn't be approved by Congress. But getting into more of a war with direct with Russia as inciting troops along with NATO. Germany and France, England, of actually getting more into a ground war type of situation, more proactive in the war instead of just being, what's the word, where we're just supporting them with money and weapons. Anyway, I don't know if that's true, if it's going to happen, but for whatever reason, the war that Trump said he was going to get us out of in 24 hours, He's managed to keep hanging on to it all the while blaming it on Biden. That's not my war. That's Biden's war. Remember that. Any question he gets about Ukraine. That's not my war. Well, no, it is your war. You've had that war for seven months, eight months. What is it now? You've had that war. So, no, it's your war. And you decided you were going to get rid of it in 24 hours, yet you have done nothing to do so. And in fact, now you're just threatening. You're threatening Russia. You said the other day on the news. Now, you were sending two Ohio-class submarines to the region, nuclear submarines, not just nuclear powered, nuclear armed submarines. And we're going to teach Russia a lesson, whatever he said along with it. Because a former Russian president, Medifreet, I can't remember what the name was, said something kind of threatening sounding online, on a tweet or whatever. Would it be like, well, if Obama said something online about Russia threatening, does that mean Russia should send more nuclear powered submarines to, you know, the Atlantic and Pacific, off our coast? That would happen now? Somebody that makes no difference in the policies of Russia, because he's a former president, Somehow Trump thinks that's a threat from Russia and he's saying two more two more Ohio class submarines to read keep in mind Everything that I've been learning is we always have at least two Submarines and I don't know if they're gonna be all more class, but two nuclear submarines in the Atlantic somewhere Ready to sit in there waiting and two in the Pacific sitting somewhere waiting For whatever it is that they was that's gonna happen So, because we can't trust anything Trump says, he lies all the time, he backs down, he changes his mind, it's like back and forth. I don't know if he really is sending two more submarines or if he's just talking about the two submarines he already has there or more. I mean, it's all classified information. I don't really know exactly where they are or how many. I've also been told by people in the know that the Ohio class submarines are not the type that can really operate in the Mediterranean, the Red Sea or the Baltic. I haven't heard about the Arctic region, if they're suitable for that. But I've also talked to people that were submariners for years and years about how during the Cold War, how they'd be in their submarine. They wouldn't know, the U.S., we would know that the Russians were out there watching us, but we were watching them. And it was like constant game of watching each other to see what they do. Usually they do find out where the other submarines are and they watch each other, ready to bounce if needed, if ordered or needed. And these, there's Ohio class, the other submarines do operate in the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. I'm not sure about the Red Sea though, honestly. You may have a certain depth, a certain way to navigate, be able to get into the region. But I think the Baltic, for instance, Baltic Sea, I think a submarine would have to surface in order to get into the Baltic, I think that's the way it goes with that sea. So that's obviously a giveaway. That can't happen. That will never work. Because the whole idea behind a submarine is to be there and stealth, hopefully not knowing that your enemy knows where you're at. That's the idea behind the submarine mainly. But I'm not, okay, you might think of me as a Putin apologist, but yeah, I don't think you should have invaded Ukraine. Or Crimea back in what, 10 years ago now? Yeah, I think he was wrong to do those things, but he had his reasons. And one of the reasons he said, and this is one of the reasons I really disagree with what Putin has done, is to keep NATO off of his borders. You've got to have a barrier between NATO and Russia. Well, he's made it worse. By the way, he has no plans to take over all of Russia. If you're listening to the mainstream and you're buying that live, it comes from the Americans and the British. That's a lot. He never had plans to take all of Ukraine. He only wanted those four oblasts, which he has. Those four oblasts that were largely of traditional Russian populations that said Ukraine was abusing them. So he kind of came to the rescue, at least that's his version of it, came to the rescue of those ethnic Russians that live in those four oblasts of Ukraine. And he's, they're pushing him to where he may end up going to the Kiev and Odessa because they may keep being pushed. If he thinks Odessa, then they have no, Ukraine has no access to a sea. Then they're a landlocked nation. And Ukraine lost this a long time ago, so don't think, even if we send NATO and American troops in, we try to take back the parts of Ukraine that have been taken already? We're going to lose. Europe is virtually as far as the militaries go. Our military isn't what it used to be in the 90s with your thinking we can just walk in a country and defeat it. You're wrong. Today we cannot do that. We have no ability to do anything like that. Warfare has changed. You don't just send in troops by ship and by tanks and crossing borders because that doesn't work anymore. With today's technology and satellites you're discovered long before that attack happens Just like the world basically knew that Russia was massing troops in Crimea. I think is where he lost it from to attack Ukraine I remember hearing it even on NPR that massive troops being being massive Hello I know you remember hearing that on NPR about the troops massing near the border. I know we talked about it before. I didn't think they were going to move in, but they did. You were right on that. I'll give you that. But remember, we talked about why they were massing on the border. Eastern Ukraine, one of the big generals who was brought back in by Zelensky after the war started, was castrating all men of military age in the eastern provinces that were more loyal to Russia because they were Russian speaking people. So his idea of getting rid of the dissidents of people who wanted to rejoin Russia was to go in and castrate all men of military age. This is modern times. This is before the invasion. This is before the Russian invasion. Okay, well I knew there are a lot of bad things being done in those four old blasts Don't ask one of them you're probably talking about don't ask but the aphorica. There's all of them He was attacking churches Russian Orthodox. He was there all kinds of things he was doing as long as he was doing and I had not heard that's picket one about the castration Why not just killed him instead of just castrating? I don't know whatever I think some were being killed as well, but Yeah, there were things going on before the war that Putin was warning against, but part of the US goal is to bring down Russia. We need to be, in order for the Empire to thrive like the deep state wants it in the military industrial complex, is to have the US being the master of the world. Nobody can stop us. But now, that's why we have enemies of those who can stop us. The Chinese can do something very serious to us. The Russians, of course, can always do something very serious to us. Iran can do, well, Iran can't really do anything serious to us except for all the military bases we have in the region. Because their missiles aren't designed to come over the oceans and attack us here. But Iran, we would lose in a war with Iran. We would lose. You can't just bomb a country like Trump seems to think he can. My missiles are bigger than yours and we don't have more missiles than them. And their missiles are more accurate and their missiles can be fired from stationary, from mobile platforms which can be moved and you can't target them because they move to a location fire and they move to another location. So you're not going to be able to take them out like you think you can. By the way, lack of scuds were being done to Israel 20 some years ago. But warfare is different today. With satellite technology and drones and missiles are the main thing in technology today for modern technology, for modern warfare. You don't do ground troops anymore invading for the most part. I mean that that has to come in order to have your regime change that you think you're going to have and for instance Iran You're going to have to put boots on the ground. You have to go in can't just bomb their all their government buildings and expect them surrender can't bomb all their Military installations expect them surrender. It's not going to happen They're going to fire back and they're going to fire back with more missiles than you even have More accurately with hypersonic ones that you can't shoot down So this is not the 90s anymore, folks. Our military is very much at a disadvantage on the world stage. And so is all of Europe's military, what little there is. Because they've been depending on us for the last few decades for their defense, which Trump rightfully so is trying to get them to wean off that heat so that they have their own. They have their own military. He's been trying to do that. For both terms he's been trying to do that. Hasn't been successful in that. One of the reasons I got off track here, one of the reasons about NATO being on the borders of Russia, I got kind of off track here a little bit. Well, General, because what, Sweden and Norway, is it? Also joined NATO? Or Finland? I think Finland. I think Finland has a huge border with Russia now, and they're part of NATO. So now we might see US bases in in Finland, right along the Russian border. And this is the kind of thing that happened during the Cuban Missile Crisis. We were extremely upset about missiles being put in Cuba, which could strike the continental US within minutes. Well, that's what Putin, he wants a barrier, he wants a distance between any of our such bases, like we have in Germany, for instance. He wants a distance from any of NATO bases They could potentially attack him with nuclear weapons. So he has time to shoot him down or do something about it or counter strike. So it's understandable because if Russia started putting military bases or China started putting military bases in Canada or Mexico, how much do you think we would be screaming about that? Same thing, folks. Now, Russia is on the border of more NATO countries than it was by It's more NATO expansion, which we promised to him that we wouldn't do over the last several decades We kept making promises about how no NATO expansion and that's one of the demands that Russia wants now NATO is probably going to self destruct and self implode itself as well Because they're not going to stand a chance against Russia to be honest with you folks even all those 30 countries I think it's 30 countries now. There's a 32 30 to 32 countries all those countries are very weak militarily and NATO is is going to be a defeated kick-squeak of an army that's just not going to survive it. Now unless somebody starts using nuclear weapons, that's the only way you're going to actually do any kind of harm that's going to bring a country down that we would be able to do. That's the only nuclear weapons is kind of our last option if we want if we really think we're going to control the world all these countries that if we we can't install our CIA can't install all these These fake regimes and all these countries we conquer then you're going to see the last hope we have Is nuclear weapons because our military just won't be able to do it. Yeah, you're going to spend a trillion dollars next year on it So I'm not going to do it unless you start building massive amounts of factories for drones and for missiles and for aircraft and ships. You're not going to do it. Our military is far too degraded nowadays. If you're in the military, I'm sorry, you know, if you're hearing this, you're probably getting mad at me if you're in the service right now, but maybe you're probably thinking, you're probably right, you're probably agreeing with me. Aircraft carriers are not a thing anymore. That's a very much a World War II thing. From what I understand, they're fairly easy to take out. China and Russia both have certain types of underwater missiles or torpedoes that can take out aircraft air, break us back in half and no more aircraft carrier. Or even dropping a few guided missiles, hypersonic missiles that we can't stop, make us a few holes in the deck of aircraft carrier. We'll also do that. It might not sink an aircraft carrier that way, but it would certainly put it out of service for quite a while to put a couple big holes in the deck. Aircraft carriers are not a thing anymore. Stop doing aircraft carriers. It's not a thing. It's not really going to be helpful for you in future wars. If you're going to have an aircraft carrier making a drone aircraft carrier, it could be done a lot smaller. It might even be done for a submarine, in fact. But anyway, aircraft carriers are not a thing. Tanks, how many tanks got taken out in Ukraine? Tanks aren't even a thing right now. Drones and Timers, is that what they were called? The ones that explode above the turret. One of the weakest parts of it flies on top of it and blows up when it right-slowers. So breaches the armor, which is very thin on the top. So tanks aren't really a thing anymore. None of your traditional World War II, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, none of these era weapons are a thing anymore. This is a new day. But Trump seems to think he's going to make things better somehow by making things worse in the meantime. So what he's doing, I'm sorry all you MAGA people probably pissed off at me too. I was hopeful. I mean, certainly I thought he was a better choice than the other thing. Maybe a YouTube video I saw. Probably still up. You can watch it if you want. It's kind of funny. Giggleins Island. You can kind of get where that's going, right? Yeah, I thought he was going to be better than her, but she would have been doing the same kinds of things, maybe not as quickly. I don't know. Because Biden was destroying our country as well. And everybody pretty much knows that she would have definitely been a tool of the deep state and the military industrial complex. She would just do exactly what she told. So it was another president that would have been Just the same as all the others. Well, this one's different, but this one's bringing us down even quicker. And then the tariffs back and forth. He's mad at Brazil because they're part of BRICS. And Brazil, as they're saying, if they put 50% tariffs on them, they say, okay, that's fine. We'll put tariffs on you the same way. China's pissing them off too because China's doing the kind of similar thing. With Brazil, and they're both in BRICS, BRICS is that agreement where they're basically going to just be destroying the dollar eventually. When enough countries get involved with it, about one-third of the world already is involved with BRICS in some way or another. So if the dollar goes, we go. So you need to be prepared for that eventuality. So yeah, the BRICS will, and the BRICS is expanding little by little, and Trump has been edging it on even more and more because more countries he pisses off and said, well, let's get into this BRICS too. The United States is just out of control. And we are. So let's start our own dollar, our own trade system. We can trade freely between us. The hell with the US. That's what's happening with BRICS. And Trump's driving more countries into BRICS because he keeps putting tariffs on all these other countries, making enemies of everybody. He's got Canada pissed off at us, for God's sakes. How do you get Canada pissed off at us? Well, by trying to take over Greenland, and by putting on massive tariffs, I guess that's two ways. And they're a neighbor in the north with no border controls whatsoever. I mean, virtually, you can walk across the border in Canada in many, many places. Just walk across and nobody will even bat an eye in a lot of places. I don't mean checkpoints. I mean just all the thousands of miles of border. Thanks, Craig. Hello. Canada is no angels, okay? I'm just gonna say that right now. Anybody in the military or Canadian military that knows their history will tell you they're almost the entire reason why we have Geneva Convention. But Canada was not our enemy. We were friends, friendly with the Canadians. Debatable. They treated their allies. I don't recall her being attacked by Canada and I don't recall a tariff war until Trump started it. I don't remember all that. No, not tariff war. I'm not going back to like World War II, how they treated our prisoners when they were recovered. That the Canada has their socialist medical system. That's in place right now. They're they're having forest fires, which they can't maintain which they're blaming us for But they won't accept aid from the US. How are you blaming us for those fires, you know? They can't fight the fires on their own. So it's our fault and they won't take aid from us because they're protesting us Okay, so we got to go put out their fires Yeah, pretty much it Well, another reason I say we should stop aid to all countries, including that Israel one, the one that's the worst off, the one that has bought our entire Congress and also represented us in Senate. That's what we need to do. I guess I can go through my one-minute tribe here before I end. Yeah, we need to stop sending money in. Here's my solution. Do you want to make America a good ranking? I've repeated this many times before. Here's what you do. Stop all money being sent to all these foreign countries, including Israel, especially Israel. Stop sending money. Stop sending them weapons. Let them buy weapons if they want to please the military industrial complex. Sell weapons to these countries if they want to buy them from us to have their wars. Stay out of their wars. Get the CIA real and back into this country. Mind our own business. Recall all our troops from overseas, close down all our 750 to 800 military bases all over the world, bring all our troops and equipment home, guard our own borders, stop putting the money in what I've done, freely trade with other countries on a level playing field. It's going to take a while to actually make America great that way, but because it's going to take several generations, for people to stop hating us around the world. One third of the world right now is under UN, under American sanctions of some form or another. The world is becoming a pariah of the world just like Israel. People are hating us, and probably for good reason. We've meddled in everybody's business where we don't belong, so let's mind your own business for a change. Most of the wars since World War II We've had our hand in almost all of this. To what? To turn in our business. We protect the content. Hit all that. You can go down for a trillion dollar budget. Go down to about a hundred billion dollars. Something like that. You can dramatically reduce it. And then start using that money for infrastructure. Anyway, that's why I don't think it's what I was thinking. Because it's what I was thinking. We fought a revolution, Liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free. and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken a number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize family farms and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors, so their children and your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Both sons of the Republic arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic in each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As Iowoki vanished in the midst of the once he came, his words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave the land of the free? Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Evening Intelligence Report. I'm Art Quirky. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories East, North, Southeast and Central. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we are on WBCQ, the planet, 6.160. Regular shortwave. WBCQ, the planet. And that's Monday through Friday, 8 to 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. It is... Oh, well, forgive me. We're also on satellite. And I want to say thank you to all our individuals both picking us up and then rebroadcasting. And we are on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And it is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It has been a summer day outside, classic. 6th of August, 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 one. the dance of swords. And it is really been a summer day, a classic summer day. It looks like it wants to rain, still looks like it wants to rain. It might still rain out there in the bottom of the state of Michigan. As was pointed out by Tom earlier, it's been hazy across the state no matter what higher altitude. We have a haze It's the Canadian incompetence and malfeasance with regard to firefighting that communism is good for. The communists are always great for failure. And that's what you get in Canada with the punk-ass communists running that operation. So it's not the Canadian people's fault per se, except that there needs to be a war for independence, and Canada needs to go the way of the United States and become a fully independent sovereign nation freestanding from the other trappings. Of course we have to do the same thing because we're right back to where we were in 1775 all over again. Time for a war for independence here in America. No different. Same problems, same issues, same creatures causing the problems. Anyway, it's Weapons Wednesday. Couple things I'm going to roll over from the tour block earlier today. Number one, I can't stress enough, over at AEMsurplus.com. AEMsurplus. Guys, They have dozens and dozens of barrels on sale for really crazy prices right now. If you can go over to AIM, AIMSurplus.com, they've got, yeah, say, three 20 barrels for $20 apiece. They've got Glock barrels for $20 apiece. Now, there's some more. There's some less expensive. Well, no, not really much less expensive than $20. But you need to go look too many too many to talk about it's easier for just go over there See if there's anything that matches the Glock you got My recommendation by two or three of the barrels if it fits your weapon and you get them for $20 apiece This is a one in one of a kind situation That's as cheap as you're gonna find a barrel for any pistol out there only for the time being because this doesn't last And it's a sale. It's over at aimsurplus.com. And yeah, they got pretty much all the different specs. They got all the different colors of the rainbow. They have threaded, unthreaded. They did have some ported. I looked real quick. I didn't get a chance to go through all the different listings. There may be a couple of the ported barrels left. They're still a little more expensive, maybe $30. But that's better than $60, $70 a barrel. So you really can't beat that. Take a look and see if it floats your boat. If you have a Glock or if you have one of the SIGs and those barrels are there for $20, buy them. I don't usually say that, but this is one of those situations where spare barrels are a good thing and this is an opportunity. You can actually afford to put them on the shelf. It doesn't cost any more than a magazine, depending on the gun. So again, aimaimsurplus.com, $20 Glock N. Sig 320 barrels. Yes, I know all about the SIG 320. You don't have to tell me what's going on with it That's why the barrels are cheap also, but the Glocks are made nothing strange happen with the Glock So take advantage of those barrels now next also over at Let's see Montana air 15 comm Montana air 15 comm they and a few of the companies seem to have a bunch of 9 millimeter that's in the discount for the moment and I believe they have some Norma. I know Delta Team Tactical does. Norma is excellent ammunition. I've been shooting it for almost all of my life. Goes way back and this is new manufactured Norma ammo. You might want to see what else they have. They have some 6.5 Creedmoor, 9 millimeter and I think some 5.56. There are some other flavors in there. You'll have to go take a look at what the chamberings are, but definitely worthwhile. And the price is right, comparable to anything else out there that you're going to run into. But it's normal. And normal is very good quality ammunition. Now, next, over at apexgunparts.com, barrels. They also have a bunch of barrel deals right now, rifle barrels and pistol barrels. Go over there, check them out if you're looking for something. For a certain kit you're trying to finish it if it's one of the odd men out, you definitely want to check that out. If you're doing an FN 49, they're one of the few places that has a lot of FN 49 parts, including new barrels or very good to excellent barrels that are pull-offs from whatever gun was disassembled. But again, they have other parts. The big chunk of Enfield parts are all over the place right now. I don't know if it's a last gasp or just the latest gasp of stuff that released by India and Pakistan and a few other places, but there's a ton of British Enfield. Now, one thing about the British Enfield real quick. You could switch it over to Rebarrel it for 3030 Winchester. Or you can do what they've also done. There's a bunch of 410 barrels out there. So you could switch the Enfield over to 410 and stick with it that way. The Ishpore barrels are out there for a really cheap price in 410. They don't need to be pretty. It's a shotgun barrel, right? 410 shotgun. So you could switch over at Enfield or build one. If you go to CenterfireSystems.com, they get a bunch of punkadunk parts and older SMLE assemblies in any number of combinations. Too numerous to mention right now, but go check them out, see what I'm talking about. Also, Centerfire restocked their DeSaul Assassin's Gun from World War II. Basically, remember the smelly rifle. chambered in 45 ACP. No, this does not come with a silencer, but they do have the proper barrel. They've got the magazine adapter for 45 ACP. It's all in a kit. You can buy a receiver for $19.95. It even has some junk on it. It has the trigger assembly and everything. Pick up a Zytel stock, a Polymer stock for a little of nothing. And put together a 45 ACP bolt action end field. So, if you were looking for something that's a nice hush puppy gun down the road, right now it'd just be a nice short shooter. Minimal stroke and not much to do to make it work. Brand new barrel, magazine well adapter so that allows you to use the 1911 mags as originally intended, etc., etc. So it's all over there at www.centerfiresystems.com. Now, we were talking about Bushmaster rifles at the very end of the 2-hour block for the Intel Report today, Weapons Wednesday. The Bushmaster rifle design. We're not talking the AR-15. I had a little confusion afterwards and a bunch of little conversations that I had to finish up. We're talking the Bushmaster to freestanding Bushmaster rifle design. Very simple. Kiss. Keep it simple, stupid. It predates anything that anybody else is doing except that the Mini-14 showed up on the horizon about the time that the Bushmaster rifles were already in service and being sold. Now initially, the Bushmasters weren't sold on the public market. They were sold in the Redder Revolution market. In fact, that's where Ruger went first. Ruger wasn't offering the Mini-14 to the American people right away. He had that 177 variant that the rent a revolution rifle that he preferred to sell to dictators, but he wouldn't sell it to Americans. Okay, that's one thing Ruger was good for. Okay, he's kosher mafia, that's why. Sold lots of stuff to the Israelis. You know, again, the other baby killers. But anyway, what was fascinating about this is that the Bushmaster rifle You could buy 2.5 Bushmaster, actual Bushmaster rifles for the price of 1 Colt AR-15. Now at the time there wasn't any real aftermarket AR-15 out there and I have pointed out that Anderson, who by the way just went out of business here, well got resold. They didn't go out of business, they got picked up. So they're going to be, Anderson's going to be out there, all the tooling machinery and employees are now owned by somebody else. But Anderson was one of the first. There was another company. I can't remember. It actually didn't really have a name. It was like a generic, hey, you want an AR-15 that's really crude and rude. Here's a crude and rude upper and lower for $77 a top, $77 a bottom. That's what it used to cost. Anyway. For what you you couldn't you could buy m16a1 kits all over the place Sarco had them for originally like I said $75 and they went up to 125 and they stayed there back in the 70s and 80s at about 125 for what a good decade but Bush master you could get a complete rifle Over the counter, two and a half of those for the price of one Colt or one regular AR-15, meaning that you could arm five people for the price of two Colt rifles. Well, guys, if you're a third world country, that's a big plus. And if you're doing the Rent-A-Revolution operations like they were in Central, South America, Africa, and Asia, especially in the Pacific Islands, The Bushmaster rifle was a pretty sound idea. Now the cool thing is, is that even though there was a lot of junk left over from Vietnam, obviously, many people were adopting the M16, so the Bushmaster rifle had the advantage of taking government ammo, US government ammo, magazines, and most spare parts. That's why it was designed by the people who made it the way they did. Why did I, why was I so familiar with the rifle? Well, When I built out for I started out building second up for up for is opposing forces for returning operations with US military When I created second up for we wanted we needed aggressor weapons before up for OPF OR Existed as you know that used to be called circle trigon anybody remember that no you probably don't Circle Trigon was a non-existent government entity, foreign government entity, and there was an entire system of created regalia, insignia, Even uniform standards were all set up so that this non-existent army was represented as the aggressor force. It was neutral so you couldn't bitch about where you're trying to, you know, show that the Romanians were gonna be fighting the Romanians. Well, yeah, we are. Oh, you can't do that. Well, that kind of loosened up progressively as it became very, very obvious that the Cold War was anchored. And so, Op 4 was the next generation in hyper-realistic aggressive forces for training purposes and they were, Op 4 was specifically created so that a military formation could exist and operate as it should and an aggressor would be available that would not be part of that unit so that there would be an actual opposition force that they were unfamiliar with, they weren't cooperative with. And the idea is that it was a contest effort. Well, the second op-for which I created started out with an impetus of about 20 personnel that we rotated. The 20 personnel were mostly prior service, but we had some present service people who had just left the service and wanted to participate in some way. A lot of them were, again, everywhere from my initial, I had World War II, Korea, and Vietnam vets that were participating as OpFor personnel. By the time we're done, OpFor expanded to a second OpFor, I created a third OpFor, and then quietly fourth and fifth OpFor, and I created what we called OpFor Training Command, which actually coordinated all the different OpFor groups that I was able to create off-budget. We needed a weapon or weapons that were not the same as what the US soldier was carrying. So initially we did what original Circle Trigon did, the old group, and used existing older generation weapons that were available, carbines, M1 Garands, very common. Eventually some M1As because while the M14 was not available on the commercial market and when a copies were but they were expensive, And, although, again, certainly that would change too. Everything changes with time and as surplus is available. And during that early period, the Bushmaster was out there and I already had pretty much been familiar with it, shot it a lot. And so we did embrace and had 20 or so Bushmaster rifles in operation on a weekly basis most of the year and they looked They were different. They looked more like an AK rifle than most, so they were a very different silhouette in appearance, which helped. That's what you need for an aggressive force rifle. And in the process, for using them for both training in the field, which would involve blank fire, and then also live fire for weapons familiarization courses that I provided for Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps. both active, reserve, and National Guard, and other formations, other forces, and many other training type cycles, activities. The Bushmaster served really well. It did everything the Air 15 would do. It functioned flawlessly. We did not have endless malfunctions or any bullshit like that, which I hear from all these echo chamber pieces that are done from, well, back in the day, I heard that. And again, what's interesting is the rifle didn't take off because the AR-15, just like after World War II, a lot of weapons didn't take off even though they were designed and built because there was such a glut of existing American military. There wasn't a way to get into the market. It was not affordable. You could build, you know, what, 20, 30, 40 carbines for the price of a brand new rifle. You could build a dozen M1 Garands for the price of a new high-powered rifle. So when the end of Vietnam comes about, you have this massive glut of M16 support technology, and everybody's taking advantage of it. So other weapon systems, like the Mini-14, it came into existence. It actually had a big following. It was successful. Ruger is what made it successful. Bushmaster and three or four other rifles were out there. The Hack 7 is another one that showed up in that period of time. Hack 7. The Hack 7 was the answer to G, we can't get a G3, we can't get an FAL, they aren't out there yet. Not in semi-auto, but we, somebody came up and built basically the Hack 7, which is a Stoner design which nobody ever talks about it was just weird weapon well stoner made a lot of weird weapons stoner designed and put into prototype form and even Limited small production a number of rifles you've never seen and They were very successful some of them you know a little bit more about example the M the ar-18 also known as the ar-180 and which now is getting a little bit of coverage again for whatever reason. It's just popular for the moment to talk about it. That rifle was the weapon that Stoner thought the US military should have. The closest rifle to the basic concept of the Bushmaster is the Stoner AR-18. But there are some significant differences. Again, I can't emphasize enough, the idea behind the Bushmaster was to make it as cheap as possible to be able to make more of them. So that's why you see all this weird garbage. People are unfamiliar with the weapon because in this day and age those weapons are not around. The only variant they have to fiddle with typically is something that shows up in auction. But let me point something out. There are people who bought most of those rifles, which is why you don't see them. They didn't get thrown away. They didn't get worn out. They didn't die. They're in private collections waiting for the war. It's like the AR-180. I know. I have seen these inventories. I know. There are people who sent purchasing agents out to buy up the AR-18, the in-en-vist Japanese, American, or Brit variant. And they got them all. That's why you don't see them circulated. They're not out there, even though quite a few were brought into or were made in the United States. The Bushmaster rifle is the same way. A number of knock-off, or I shouldn't say knock-off variants, but separate production runs of different types took place in the generation of, in the generational development of the rifle. But the Bushmaster itself would be a sound design to adopt and would again as is pointed out changes in metallurgy but also how we think of and work with polymers. The whole rifle could be rethought and here's what's really fascinating. You probably could build a Bushmaster today that A would be tougher. B would be as light or lighter than the original weapon, especially if you went with a lightweight pencil barrel. Realistically, the rifle could be built at about five and a half, maybe six pounds, making it a really comfortable rifle to carry and a very comfortable rifle to shoot. The weapon was very reliable from our perspective. The biggest issue being that it just stopped being made. Now here's the other thing it competed against I got to correct myself in that respect at a given point the Chinese were allowed to start bringing AKs in and once the AKs both the Mahdi AKs which you see in Red Dawn by the way they were competing with us back in the day when Red Dawn was made We were buying the Mahdi AK because it is the AK that is a duplicate of the Russian model So our Op4 force was carrying them The problem is all of a sudden they all disappeared then we found out Red Dog came out then we knew why Because the company that did that grabbed almost all of the production You know Mahdi Griffin's coming in for the purpose of that theater theatrical production. So there was a hole there for a bit And the Chinese stuff showed up overlapping. So we started absorbing that The big change in the AKs, as I said, is when they went to the 5.56 round variant. And that's when they cut them off, because the perfect combination, an AK design with a 5.56 US ammunition supply, means that that weapon would be perfect for paraconventional and unconventional operations inside the US, especially for the Patriot slash the militia effort. Now today, there's all kinds of 5.56 ARs, or for any AKs out there. Back in the day, they weren't there. And again, there weren't that many 5.56 rifles really that were on the market. There were only a handful of variants and that's it. Go ahead, call her. Trip in there, please. Hey, can you do the AR system like for a 12 gauge pump? Do you think that'd be possible to do or it wouldn't work because of the pump? Well, there's an actually a manually operated AR-15 out there right now made for California. It does just exactly that. I just looked at it beginning of last week. Somebody sent me an image of it, but I went and looked it up. There's a couple of really unique ideas that they came up with for AR-type variants. that they're already in production. They're just not popular anywhere because the only place that is needed is where you're in a communist state like California, you can't have a regular AR-15. Every place else is like, why would I bother with that? Now, having a 12 gauge underneath a 20 inch AR-15, well that's, remember Billy from the Predator movie, remember Billy had the 12 gauge pump gun underneath the AR-15. Billy, what are you doing? Remember Billy, the big Indian guy? That was one of the two unique weapons that they put into that movie that were kind of, you know, stuck with everybody for a while. Basically they put in a Remington 870 underneath an AR-15, you know, AR-15 20-inch gun. And so it was like a M203, but it was a 12-gauge pump gun instead. So it's the same concept. And it worked a manually operated They are 15 there like I said, there's a couple variations already there before we go any farther though Everybody freeze because it's the bottom of the hour and we haven't done this yet Edward its weapons Wednesday and on weapons Oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands we'll prove no strife, oh, we may ride a good leap speed, we may not stern a master, your forward march would speed, but you'll learn the back much faster when you meet our mountain boys, and their leader John Stark, glad you make what little noise and always hit the mark, oh, the rifle, oh, the rifle, in our hands we'll prove no strife, oh, We are back and it is Weapons Wednesday. Very quickly, I want to address something else and make sure it's in the middle of the program so we don't miss out on this. Something that we were talking about when the subject about the Bushmaster or conversation about the Bushmaster took place is I was mentioning carbon buildup in the firing pin channel of the rifle that was in question where it was malfunctioning. In this case, it was the video of the Bushmaster rifle done for forgotten weapons. An excellent channel, by the way, if you haven't had a chance to go look at the work done there, he's done a fantastic job. It's a great way for you to review weapons you'll probably never touch, but you might run into, you never know, you might run into it out there one of these days, someone's gonna go, hey Bob, shoot this for me, you cover me! Well, it'd be nice to actually maybe have an idea what was just thrown at you, right? So, always take a look at forgotten weapons and there are some really neat things that he covers that are museum grade. They're unique, one of a kind per se now, but back in the day, they actually were laying around in a lot of places. Because of that, they show up as grandpa guns all the time. That's one thing to remember. You don't know what kind of a collection. It's just laying around the corner from where you are and one of these days you might have to use it. So it would be good to have working knowledge now in the brain pan when you need it later. It will be there ready to run. Okay? Now, here's the thing about the idea that that may be a malfunction. This is a malfunction problem with especially surplus weapons. Why? Well, most people, for decades I've experienced this, I've asked somebody, did you clean that rifle? No, I cleaned that rifle and it's an M1 carbine. And I've been looking at it at a gun show or I've been looking at it and somebody had it for sale, we went over to check it out because the person had it. And you'd ask them, have you cleaned this weapon? Well, yeah, it's malfunctioning. So you're sure you cleaned the weapon? And I know what I was doing and it'd be like, oh, okay, I'm not gonna argue with you anymore on that. I'm not arguing anyway. I'm just trying to qualify something. I was gonna tell you, but I'm not going to now. Instead, I would pay the $75 for the military M1 carbine that was in pristine excellent condition on the outside. I would take it home. I would take the rifle out of its stock and I would pull the trigger group apart. And by the way, when I pulled it out of the stock, there's two things you're going to find. Number one, the TAP-IT looked like it was covered in a nice fine ultra-flat black paint. It wasn't. It was covered in carbon. Okay? And while the individual did a very fine job of cleaning the weapon on the outside, they had no way, shape, or form apparently had any experience with the weapon on the inside. Clean the tappet, all of a sudden the rifle doesn't malfunction anymore. Why? Because that's part of the mandatory maintenance that needs to be done with the M1 carbine. That little tappet down below the barrel, underneath the barrel, inside the wood stock, is critical for operation. It has to be maintained, it has to be kept clean, okay? Now, you may have fired a Mauser or a Carcano or you may have actually handled one at a gun show and you go, you pull the trigger and it seems muddy. And what I mean by muddy is exactly, it's kind of like there's a, it does release, the sear works, everything strikes the way it's in theory supposed to, but it's muddy. That's because it is, okay, most commonly when people get weapons like this, they don't disassemble down to the common components. And one of the things, especially with old bolt-action rifles, is that, well, before the government put them in, you know, on the rack or in a big pile in a cave somewhere, they typically just greased or cosmoleined to live in bejesus out of them, and they actually wanted the guns to work. So what they did is they disassembled the bolt and they gooped and greased up the inside of that bolt. Oh, it will never rust. And the thing is that, well, grease, it's accommodating. It slips, it slides. It'll get out of the way. It's semi-liquid, right? It's kind of pasty because it's paraffin. And what happens is when you pull the trigger, yep, the firing pin will move forward, it will strike, it will make contact with the primer sometimes, maybe all the time, but it might be a little light. As was mentioned earlier, it seemed like it was striking a little light. So there's two things you do. Number one, first of all, look up all the information you get on that rifle, and then what you do is you follow the instructions and break down the bolt. Break out the Q-tips, get yourself a long piece of stick with some cloth, and start working all that grease out of the channel. Now here's the thing. They probably greased it, but they probably didn't do any more to clean it than anybody else ever did in the life of that rifle. And what typically is the problem is that there is not only grease, but there's carbon buildup. Now guys, a little poof of carbon Coming out the side of the chamber as the brass is being extracted isn't a big deal. But when you do it over and over again and you're holding a rifle that's been around for, it could have been around, it could be a hundred years. You know a K98 Mauser right now if it was built in 1898 is 127 years old. In the 127 year history of that gun, do you think that anybody broke it down in recent years? and did a proper maintenance job on it, do you think? I'm going to tell you, probably not. So when you pull the trigger, you're absolutely right. That's got a muddy trigger. It's got a muddy trigger because this poor old girl hasn't been cleaned really well in probably a very, very long time. So one of the first things you want to do is break it down. And again, not break it, but in other words, disassemble. Go through each part. And if at all possible, I've told you this a million times on the air, try to recover, in other words, disassemble and pull the extractor. Be careful because the extractor may be oxidized into place a little bit. And if you're not careful, yes, you can break it. You may break it by operation if you don't do maintenance on it. But what happens is on the inside, that little poof of carbon times one year, 10 years, 20 years worth of use, Oh, they probably put some oil in there or grease again, but they probably didn't clean out that firing pin channel ever sometimes. They did put more grease in it though, and what's really cool is when the bolt heats up, the grease actually liquefies it with enough shots fired, and it oozes out that firing pin channel. How do you like that? So at least it doesn't rust up. And to a degree, it kind of hydraulically drives out a certain amount of the built up grease and carbon on the inside because when the grease liquefies, it bonds to the carbon and pulls some of it along. But it's still not cleaned properly. You'll be amazed, even with many of your newer rifles where you've said, it seems like the firing pin's a little light. Well, first of all, maybe you don't know how to take that bolt apart on your Remington or your Winchester. or you're old savage, but you better figure out how. And you'd be amazed if you actually do proper preventive maintenance, you'd be amazed at how much better that personal firearm of yours will work. Prior, proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Okay? And I don't care what it is, SKS, AK, AR, British Enfield, American 1917 Enfield, Schmidt-Rubin, doesn't make any difference. They all have firing pins. Now the ejector is another issue. Not all weapons are, the ejector is easily extracted from the ejector channel. But once you are able to do that, take a good toothbrush and a really aggressive bore cleaner and clean out that, the extractor channel. And also clean off the extractor. and then make a point of cloth rubbing it to clean it up just in case there's oxidation on it. And again, what you'll do is extend the life of the extractor. The model 1891 Mausers, the Argentine Mausers, as a matter of fact, they're another one. The Argentine were beautiful rifles, 765 Argentine or modified to 30 out of 6. They had a tendency to break extractors. So much so that there are literally tens of thousands of surplus new extractors laying around out there. But who knows who's got them now? The reason is that the tolerances were very tight on the Argentine. Again, maintenance wasn't necessarily done. The break almost always takes place in the same location, not because of an engineering flaw. But because of progressive failure to do proper maintenance Everybody understand how that works. I'm not going to go through it again. I've talked about it many times very simple Do the maintenance necessary and the weapon will function better no matter what it is no matter who no matter who made it for that matter and In most cases it's like well. It's just a little thing how many rounds you fire through that well I fired six five six thousand rounds How many rounds do you think somebody else fired it, well, fired through it in the last couple hundred years, or well, hundred years, I won't say couple hundred. Oh, oh no, well, that's my point. This is why you have to do a deep clean and then a proper re-lubrication of all of the weapons that you have. And by the way, shotguns are no different. Semi-automatic sporting rifles are no different. I can tell you a whole bunch of nightmare issues with certain firearms. because people do the same thing year after year to the point where spare parts were made by the tens of thousands in certain components because it was just known that people wouldn't do what they should do with the weapon and the company didn't want anybody to get pissed about it not being able to have parts. Of course they also sold the parts so they knew that they were selling more parts. Oh, that could have been planned. That could have been planned! Yeah, why not? Always paying attention half the time. So anyway, other things. We're 15 minutes to the top. I'll tell you what, Edward, we haven't done it so far. We might not have enough time, but let's see if we can fit a Guns N' Gadgets in there if it's not too long. We have enough time for that. We didn't do it in the three-hour block. It is Weapons Wednesday. Guns N' Gadgets is over on YouTube. Jared has done a great job of keeping everybody up to speed. He's established a well-maintained channel. He is religious about following up on information. Definitely worth listening to. So if you can, take the time and go over to Guns and Gadgets. And unlike the Biden years where most major cities didn't even report the crime to protect the previous administration's reputation, 95.6% of the U.S. population is covered by this year's universal crime reports. We're talking about the fastest decline on record. Stick around for the real numbers, what it means for you. and why this trend matters. And also don't forget a big factor here and that's the result of the Supreme Court's Bruin decision. I'll tell you why. First, a huge thanks to CMMG for sponsoring today's episode. They're made right here in America in Booneville, Missouri. And if you're looking for a workhorse of an AR platform with reliability you can trust and depend on, whether it's for home defense or competition, CMMG tools are top tier. I've taken my Banshee to several trainings across the country over the last few years and it has now replaced my previous home defense tool. I even paired it with one of CMMG's zeroed quieting tubes. American made quality that you can depend on. Be sure to check them out and use code GNG10 for a nice surprise. Here's some key stats for you here that will help you in your conversations with some anti-gunners. According to the FBI's 2024 UCR crime report, murder is down a massive 14.9% nationally. Violent crime dropped 4.5%, property crime down about 8.1%. And the murder rate is now slightly below pre-pandemic levels and down about 26% from 2020 peaks. Let's rewind a bit here. Murder spiked in 2020-2022 during those years where nobody did anything related to crime prevention or holding criminals accountable. And that was up 30% in some cities. But that statistical reversal began with our 2023 numbers, with the largest ever one year drop about 12%. And what preceded this period? Well, the Supreme Court crushed the May issue concealed carry licensing scheme that kept many Americans from carrying a firearm in the first place that defend themselves. As millions and millions of more people began to carry during the Kuf era, and criminals knew that the amount of soft targets had dropped drastically, and that people would be able to defend themselves, well, they began to perpetrate less crimes. Think of it like the old adage. If you're going into Rob Astore and the 30 people inside are all armed and are going to point guns at you, are you really going to take that risk? Then 2024 jumped on top of those numbers in 23 with the 14.9% decline and that's not a fluke. This is a historic trend. Over 277 cities with available 2024 data saw murder fall by 17.8%. Even among the top 171, the 171st most violent cities, the drop was around 17.7% by mid-2024. Also of note, some major metro areas showed especially steep declines. Those are markers that 2025 might eclipse all-time lows. For firearm owners and enthusiasts, low murder rates may reflect safer communities around us, but we still advocate for preparedness. Policy debates around policing or legislation and criminal justice reform should consider these downward trends. The decline leads to confidence that 2025 could feature the lowest U.S. murder rate ever recorded. Remember now. After the Bruin decision, the Democrat machine had every single media mouthpiece viewing their agenda-driven response that the Supreme Court's ruling would cause more guns on the street because states couldn't decide what law-abiding Americans could exercise their Second Amendment rights. Remember, there were no more May-issue states. They're all Shaul-issue. They kept saying violence would skyrocket as a result. Well, now we have irrefutable proof. that the exact opposite has happened. It's exactly what happens when a state moves to Permitless Carry and the blue media says that the state will turn into the wild, wild west. Never happens, never will. So whether you're a concealed carry trainer, a defense-minded homeowner, or just interested in public safety data, this downward shift is significant. It's not a reason to relax vigilance, but It's a hopeful sign that things are moving in the right direction and we, the people who are willing to defend our community, are a big part of these numbers. Remember that. Don't gloss over that fact. Also, if you're tired of weak, bulk coffee that lets you down, wake up to blackout coffee. The bold American brew for true patriots.

And we still got about a good seven, eight minutes of time here before the top of the hour in the middle of the week comes to a close for us. Tell report. A reminder is know where your weapon hits. Something else that I haven't talked about in a while is every firearm, two things. We never trust a weapon out of the box. That's paranoid. No, it's not. That's safety. Never trust a weapon out of the box. What do I mean by that? When you get a new firearm, you want to make sure that, again, you do what's called a system or operations test. But Mark, they did it at the factory. Yes, I'm sure they did, maybe. But I want to make sure that there's nothing that somebody maybe boo-booed in the meantime that will make a big boo-boo for you, like maybe a dent in your head. So doing a physical weapons test is where you load the weapon with a limited number of limited number of rounds, do not hold the weapon to your face or in line with your body. You can mag it, you can bench it, whatever you want to do, but you want to be observing the firearm itself. Now you want to make sure that bullet hits something, so focus on a point of contact, a point of impact. But the reason for this is to test to see that the performance of the weapon is as marketed slash expected. It has to be able to cycle around, it's gonna reload, and it's not gonna blow up in the process. I've already told you the story about the many Glock failures and the fact that one of the people I know quite personally was one of the owners of one of those Glocks that failed years ago back in the 90s, okay? And all of the Glocks failed, all of them. Not ridiculing Glock, just this historical fact, okay? So anyway, no matter what weapon, it could be a new weapon, a old weapon, used weapon like we've been talking about, but you want to try them all. We've got to call her. Who do we have? Yeah, Tom. Because you don't know if it was a Friday gun or a Monday gun. That's right. You don't know what day it was made. On top of everything else. I'm going to hurry. I've got to go on vacation. I'm going to... Oh, he probably didn't do what he was supposed to do. I'm hungover from the weekend. Yeah, well, that could be another problem too. The big thing here is most important is first we want to know that it operates properly. That's number one. Number two is once you've got a feel for how the weapon prints at what are expected or anticipated operating ranges. Example, belly guns or shorter range handguns. How do they perform? Is it doing what it's supposed to do? Yep, within the expected parameters of the design of the firearm. But what you want to do with every weapon is see if you can reach a little farther. Now this is something that I have always done with every firearm and I'll tell you the one that surprised me the most. Years ago when I purchased a Charter Arms Bulldog. Now the .44 Smith & Wesson Special Round is actually a pretty powerful round. It's the .38 Special Counterpart so to speak to .357 Magnum. 44 Smith and Wesson versus 44 Magnum. OK? That's what it's the counterpart to. Anyway, I have a three inch barrel on that charter. And I always want to see, well, what can I do at 100 yards or 50 yards? In this case, now I just went right to 100 yards. I already have the targets marked out. And amazingly enough, again, single action, not double action. That's a waste of ammo in a situation like that. three rounds on a silhouette target at 100 yards with a three inch barrel. Now, you wouldn't expect that from the weapon, but it's a combination of things, and not the least, which is the cartridge itself, that offers pretty decent performance, or offered pretty decent performance. Now, am I going to take a shot like that normally? No, not all the time. But if I had to, can I have reasonable confidence in the weapon? Well, by what I had seen and then later following up with other experiments, as a matter of fact, yes. And it ain't no Dirty Harry 44 Magnum gun or anything like that. But the idea is that I could reach that far and make you nervous, as my old sergeant major that was on my pistol team used to say when the belly gunners would say, well good is your 45 at 100 yards. He says, well, I'll tell you what, I mean, I kill you every time, but I guarantee I can make you very, very nervous at 100 yards. And the fact of the matter is that, well, you could do a little better than that, depending on how you develop your skills. So don't underestimate. The other thing you remember in some cases, you're just creating what is, you know, it's, again, suppression or diversionary shooting. And sometimes that is very useful depending upon the situation. But you've got to practice it. You've got to actually take the weapon out and experiment. Don't expect it to be an artillery piece and be able to drop rounds in at 100 yards, 200 yards, or whatever if it's a light pistol. But again, take it out to greater range progressively and see what you can do. That's how you want to plink. You're going to go out and shoot and plink. You want to actually see if you can perform. Not just go out there and blaze away with a pile of ammunition, end up with a whole bunch of empty brass and no real end result. Be creative. And in this case, this is a positive process. So, and you will benefit from this, trust me. At some point it might actually save somebody's life. Not going to stop everyone with something that's a long shot. But again, make them nervous. They actually fail to perform effectively. That happens. Somebody has time to get out of the line of fire or any number of other issues. There's all kinds of reasons for having to perform in that way. And it's a matter of you being able to reach and tag or at least suppress that objective. So just ideas, not just complaining about problems. You've got to come up with solutions. We're at the top right now and I tell you what we're going to do, we're going to have to take off and get out of the way. So, weapons, Wednesday is finished for this week. Get out to the range, but again, stay focused on performance. Hit what you aim at. That's the most important thing. Take into consideration. Hits count. This is the God bless our Republic. Chompervail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. Kicking the slats, beating them down hard, don't want to get back up. Guys, remember... We have a lot of work to do. Take care of diving on the ice and crossing all the keys. Square your technology away and then develop your skill, your expertise. Master the military sciences to the greatest degree possible. Anyways, let's get out of the way for now. Take a break and get ready for bed. Meanwhile, I'm going to go out and offload another truck and we will be back tomorrow at the same time. Bed is taking over. God bless. Bye bye. And the sun belongs We are the Muses, Godses of the Arts and Proclaimers of Heroes Heroes like Hercules Honey you mean Hercules
