Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave free. The brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice 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 you've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize. and keep our country, 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, so their children can either 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 what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great republic and eat God-given right. And pray to God your freedom, as I awoke he vanished and the mists of the wind said, this words were true. But we have ourselves For even now as tyrants trampled each god given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer? He called out from the grave. With the utilization of every stinkin' weapon, you've got to put a bullet down range. Or a shell, or a mortar round, or a drone, take or pick, whatever you want to call them nowadays. We'll come up with a new bullshit name for later. I'm sure somebody will. And then tell you it's all brand new and it's just stale as an old dirty bag of potato chips from 1964. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Cornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories North, South, West and Southwest Ladies and gentlemen you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com and we're on satellite. I want to say hi to all those great people who are listening in and then rebroadcasting via analog or digital satellite and in some cases both, which is really cool. Anyway, it is, well, it's It is Cinco de Amo Day and Quartermaster Friday. That's right. It isn't a dynamic Friday. It's a day when you will take the centavos in your pesos, your ameros, remember the ameros? When they were going to destroy all the borders of North America like Trump is talking about doing again and just plugging right into the NAFTA and get bullshit scammed to destroy America. Well, you will take all of those pieces of currency and you will buy some ammo you see on for your rifle, your pistola. or perhaps your shotgun. For today, Isinko de Amo de Hachinkawa. Anyway, it is a beautiful, beautiful day. I hear in the bottom of Michigan it is, by the way, it is the 3rd of April. It is the 18th year of open, obvious, and in-your-face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K. 2026 World First and second desert well desert dust part one the adventure begins desert dust part two the adventure continues They absolutely lied about the number of combat cash will be an aircraft during the first one For obvious reasons rah rah rah need to get more people signed up for the meat wagon and that is their first and biggest concern Remember it has nothing to do the other side knows what they've knocked down You know if you're lying who you lying to The Iranians know what they've shot at. Amazingly enough, they have all kinds of ways to communicate. You think that they're stupid. They're not stupid people over there. Just the reverse. They're actually pretty bright. Intercommunications is out there in many, many different ways because they can't count on cell phones. But photo imagery, hell, we're counting. On this side of the water, we're counting on imagery taken by locals on the ground of the air activity over in Iran. Now all the Iranian people see this. They're first person. Okay, what are you hiding from? I mean, who are you hiding the information from? The only people you're hiding the information from is the American people to lie to them. The people you're shooting at all know what's going on. They're there. They're on the ground. They can't get any closer. So all the bullshitters you have in this stinking government are all a pack of liars who are lying because in order for them to bring more meat to the wagon, they've got to not let you know what's really going on. Now the big thing here again, this in reality is very much like if World War III had played out in 1995, what would it have been like? Well, to a degree you're seeing it right now. Everybody immediately goes, no, the drones, all the drones. They're already admitting. Anybody catch this? I've told you this over and over again. I knew it was coming and it did come and now it's normal and second nature. They said 40 year old technology, they incorporated 40 year old technology to modify the drone so they can not be intercepted by radio signal. And so they're using optical lines slash wire guided systems. Oh, wire guided systems, eh? You mean the antiques from the 70s war. Remember I've also pointed this out. It's not what they say, it's what they avoid talking about. They seem to want to write out anybody referencing the 73 Arab-Israeli war. Why? Well, because all the crap you're seeing now is all the crap they were seeing then, but they have to tell you it's feudal resist, you'll be absorbed, space age technology, blah, blah, blah, blah. And in reality, it's all crap that's been used virtually for now a half century. Okay, wire guided was the norm, not the exception in the 73 war. Also, radio guided, but radio guided, the various issues we're seeing that almost happened immediately, once everybody understood where the threat was with the wireless guided missiles from a point of command is they started jamming. So they had to go back one generation or two generations earlier to wire guided technology, which is old. Okay, it's just not a problem, but it's old. I mean, it's just like nothing you've ever seen before. Okay, so anyway, it's not. But there are things that have changed a little bit. Not much really. The big thing here again is that you're seeing the overlap of all the technology used in what is literally a AA category combat formation on both sides. Now, this is something also that people don't realize, but at the beginnings of each war, no matter which war it is, each warring party has committed to its philosophy of how weapons are integrated into the battlefield and what weapons are going to be used. Each side may have a different philosophy, even though they both embrace much of the same technology at one point, there's a separation based upon the manufacturing capabilities and even the psychology of the population. Japan was terrible for this with small arms weapons. And they were very Japanese-centric because they wanted to be remembered as a great power. So while they did copy many weapon systems, In many cases, they tried to come up with something totally independent, totally alien to the way we think, and adopted these weapons as standards for their concept of how to fight. We're looking at that situation right now with where we are with the surfeited material we have that they're now burning the rest up of from the great possibility of the Cold War, World War III scenario, which, by the way, is still playing out. But the fact is that the technologies that they're embracing are classic defensive applicable technologies that always work. It wouldn't make any difference what scenario you play out. The basic way that the Iranians are defending themselves is the only option that a country has when an aggressor has attacked, even though you knew the attack was coming, but has worked effectively to create the most dynamic, flexible, defensive grid that also could serve to protect what offensive assets the Iranians have. And they've done a pretty good job of it. I guarantee that one of the things they can't tell you about, they're talking about how they're destroying launchers. For instance, what type of launchers? Have you seen any of the silo launched images of the Iranian weapon systems? And somebody goes, yeah, and they bomb that one. There's a picture of them bombing that underground launch point. Guys, anybody remember our ICBM program? Do we have underground tunnels with massive loader points going to those bunkers, the silos that we put out in the middle of nowhere? Be it over in the Great Plains on the east side or over towards the Rockies and the other. Take a look at the Minuteman 1, Minuteman 2, Minuteman 3 silos. Don't forget the Titan complexes. Were those reloadable? They weren't. Okay, what if you take the modern lighter technology or let's just say more agile technology and you build a whole bunch of fire and forget silos. In fact, you could install them years ago, once you're whatever present technology you have you want to bunker in and walk away. And you minimize all activity as if whatever the construction was, which could be deceptive in many ways, It isn't going to be identified until somebody finally pushes the button on that launcher, the big concrete door or the gravel slides away or the steel building falls apart in three or four directions, and all of a sudden there's a hole with a rocket leading. Now you can bomb that because obviously it's very important, it's very, very important, you've got to bomb it, you've got to bomb it because you've got a missile come out of it, but it's a fire and forget silo. much unlike in the World War III scenario for the Minuteman weapons systems, was there a plan to reload the silos? No. Well, actually I can't say that. There was a plan that if everything could stabilize and if they could evaluate the launch point that it could actually be rebuilt, they might. But the chances are that after they used those weapons, there wouldn't be any replacements for them. Too many mushroom clouds and marsh gas going off all over the place to the point where it's irrelevant. You're not going to do it again. And you still have a combined arms team of mobile launchers, air launched, submarine launched, and surface ground launched from the United States, and other locations where we have other missiles tucked away that we've lied about for years because we lie. Just how it happens. How dare the Iranians to embrace the same concept. How dare they? They couldn't be that smart. So, you bomb a lot of stuff, and by the way, if you were the Iranians, wouldn't you employ a whole group of people, I mean, I know I would, to be doing a lot of like construction and hauling and hauling and construction and construction and hauling and digging and not a penny of it, in fact, is viable for anything that's real. It's a complete illusion. If you know that you have Israeli rat, parasitic, satanic, pitot, queer spies on your property, and they knew they did, and there are all these ways that the Wage War by Deception crew was going to be trying to find out everything they could, and I'm sure they tried. You also accept the idea that they're going to be there, so rather than pissing your pants and dumping your spine out your bung-ho like a meat xylophone, you actually use them. This is the part that the founding fathers did with the spies that King George had that were spying on the militia and the patriot movement before the war for independence. But they don't want you to know about that either. See, the whole idea is, rather than being cowardly, the idea is to look at the situation as how can we use the asset that the enemy has provided. And that asset are those eyes and ears and those rats and rodents. So if you have a lot, well you want to make it look like there's a whole lot more. We bombed the shit out of Kosovo. and the Serbian military for months on end. We claim that we destroyed, in fact if you look at the numbers, all you got to do is scratch out Serbian military and put Iranian military in. We claimed to Time Magazine and Newsweek and all the controlled mouthpiece medias that we had destroyed about 90% of the ground military forces of Serbia. that in the Kosovo area we had destroyed at least 80% of the tanks and about 60 to 80% of the artillery and their rocket launchers and their air defense and it sounds exactly like the bullshit you're hearing right now. You know what was happening? The Serbian military were damn good at fighting World War III. because that's what they plugged in. All of the tricks of the trade, every resource they had, they pulled all the stops out and it pissed the living shit out of the allied forces that were illegitimately bombing Kosovo and Serbia just like these pricks. And again, it was under Jewish control then. So these pricks that are now bombing Iran pull them the same crap and also pulling the same numbers out of their ass. You might remember that during the time when they said that they destroyed all of Serbia's air defense, they shot down an F-117, they shot down a number of other aircraft, and they did it with literally obsolescent, as they would say, air defense missiles. They didn't even have the technology they have now. And they were engaging the same kind of aircraft. They're flying F-15s. They can't afford to fly that many of the F-35s. And even if they do, how many hours can they sustain combat operational flight and maintain themselves? We'll talk about that in a minute. Before we came up on the program, the Army, probably Army, the Air Force lost two A-10s today. They lost an F-15. They may have recovered a crewman. They may not. They could be lying completely about that bullshit. They don't want anybody to know what's really going on. Now the Iranians do know what's going on. So who are they lying to? They're only lying to us. They're not lying to the Iranians. The only people they lie to are the American people. The first perceived enemy of the globalist slash the New World Order clique slash the Jewish Zionist mobsters. Redeats, the Tannik, the Petoqueers. The Iranians know what's going on. They watch it happen. They could stand outside and go, wow, look, F-15 and we should probably be in the bunker, a massage. No, no, I think we'll stay here and watch. And bam! And that F-15, maybe at whatever altitude, kind of plows out in a couple of directions. And a few seconds later, and there go the chutes with the ejection seats. And then, well, it's like the plane comes down and goes, boom! The Iranian people saw that, guys. They're not watching it out on television. It's in their backyard. Don't you think? So who are they lying to? The whole only people to be witches in Washington are lying to is us. So again, they sent in the usual, a 130 gun ship, the cannon master, helicopters, which they may have lost a helicopter already. They lost a helicopter early as part of the recovery. In addition to that, the 2A10s were shut down about an hour before we started the program, I think, just a little under. whether it's one or two, it sounds like they're trying to do everything again in a lie. Did they have mechanical failures? They can say that. They had mechanical failures. What were the mechanical failures? Well, they had a missile up at the ass. I thought you meant like an engine failure or something. Well, when the missile hits it and gets up at the ass, yeah, usually the engine has a problem. Yeah, and other parts too, sir. Well, you were kind of using wordplay there, weren't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, because the American people, they don't have a clue. American people, where you said, blah, as far as the ring knockers are concerned, we're just a bunch of idiots. So anyway, this is cascading, and it would. Now the A-10s, it wouldn't make any difference if they had a newer variant on the A-10 or the A-10. The A-10 is supposed to be a close quarter aircraft. It's going into a high threat environment. And by the way, this is nothing new, this situation, this scenario. Guys, you ever studied the Korean War? I served with three different men, I've told you before, and all three of them, they lost their leg, lower leg, all three of them in the Korean War, one time or another, I didn't serve with them all at once. One guy was in helicopter rescue. Any flat out tell you, first helicopter in makes it just fine. But everything in the line behind it gets the snot shot out of it because they need to get everybody closer so they can put them down. Support aircraft, for every three that go in, they would typically lose one. And that would make it worse what it was. Course airs were used, sky raiders were used, they used any jets, fast movers that they had. Korean War, we're not talking Vietnam, we're talking Korea. Korea is 70 years ago, 76 years ago now. Think about that. And you could map out the exact same scenarios just played here. The only people didn't know about it were the American people. The Koreans and the Chinese and the Koreans and the North Korean people we were shooting at and trying to kill, they watched all of it happen. They didn't have to guess. They heard about it all the time. They'd see the prisoners or they'd see the wreckage all the time. The only people that the US government is lying to is you. Everybody else is watching it first person in Technicolor. Quite brightly as a matter of fact, since most of the stuff happened during the day, which I think is rather fascinating. Now another thing about air defense is for the long haul, there's two things happening. Number one, I guarantee that as much in the way of dummies and alternative targets were put out there for the benefit of and high confidence at that, not punk and junk half ass work. In order for any kind of dummy or decoy to work nowadays, you have to go into detail. You have to think ahead. You need to put cans and ammo cans and small lines and even technical material, even though it's just mock-up made with whatever material you got. But you have to create a very realistic silhouette or whatever you're doing because the photography is upgraded dramatically. You need to create high confidence that the enemy wants to put a bomb on it. It doesn't mean they're hitting anything useful. It just means you're getting the enemy to waste ordnance because, again, as you're finding out, refills, you know, refilling the battery, the magazine, the missile racks, well, it's kind of expensive. We're at $38,884,000,000 in debt. We will be by the end of next week to $39 trillion without any problem. complete S-400 systems, two guards Tehran, one guards a power plant, and one guards a nuclear facility. And the one that guards one of the facilities also has an overlapping to that Krog Island. But also something else happened, and this was also reported by General Bakshi. Russia ran in there because the United States began attacking immediately. And they rushed in there and they'd done something that no one thought they would do. They brought in two S-500s. That's a complete different technology compared to anything that anybody has seen in the Western world. There's only 20 some of them or so made in the world. But that air-to-surface-to-air missile system General Bakshi said that three of them could cover all of the whole land mass of Iran. But they only brought two in. But the way they have them strategically placed, technically those 500s could literally take on the whole two-thirds of the entire area of Iran. Now, they have the ability. to detect stealth aircraft. They were predominantly made to detect our S22s and our S35s. And these things are designed to take out US stealth aircraft. But they're also designed, they can take out satellites. And I think even the S400 can do that. But the S400 has a revolving rotating frequency system on it, where you literally cannot jam it. So, you know, we're losing a whole bunch of aircraft. Just probably a couple days ago, Iran launched an attack on Israel and they literally destroyed 40 F-35s in hardened bunker facilities. Yeah, Israel had even moved some of the surplus aircraft to other secondary facilities. Iran was able to determine where that was. And they blew the living crap out of those aircraft too. So what we're now witnessing because we're seeing aircraft being shot down is that the world has changed. The dynamics of that battlefield over there in the air war has completely changed because a modern technology that the United States should have but we don't have because we're screwing money away. We are seeing this on the battlefield now. That is what I wanted to add Mark. I didn't know if you were aware of that. There are several systems that they have moved in. The report is they have also moved in these RS-28 Sarmats. I have had two different people send me a couple of reports on this. These are a merbed offensive weapon. They are a missile. The argument is, nuclear capable. Well, that doesn't mean the Russians gave them. They're claiming that they moved in. The number they're saying is a thousand. Okay, it's possible. I don't know what the size of these systems are. And again, as you said, they didn't just rush in a whole lot of equipment. Let's remind everybody about something that was happening during Desert Dust 1 and Desert Dust 2. Guys, all the while that we were bombing, the Russians were landing in Iraq. Does everybody remember this? The Russians were coming in with transports and there's two things they were doing. They brought ordnance in to a limited degree from whatever the backstab agreement that the Russians and we had. Who knows what it was. to screw Iraq. But remember, there's a reason that they did that. Every missile that we launched that failed, the Iraqis recovered. You might recall the news crews reporting that they observed Iraqi technical crews out in the desert packing up the cruise missiles that failed. That they saw them. They physically took pictures of it. They had images. And so what happened is that technology went back out on planes. But no cargo plane in a situation like this is gonna go back or forth empty. Something's going in, something's coming out. Something's going in, something's coming out. So they're not, you know, again, they're gonna do a quick turnaround as they can. But the idea here is that the SR-28 is supposed to be a 10 Merv warhead. The Iraqis, the Iranians already showed you that those, what everybody tried to call cluster bombs, were not cluster bombs. Cluster bombs are ordnance that's racked in box and what happens is when you get to a certain altitude, the container opens up and it just drops lazy dogs. All they are are simple ordnance devices, they can be any number of sizes. But the one that typically is launched by artillery or by air missile like this is about the size of a softball. What you saw were merved weapons coming in because each had its own little rocket motor. This is maybe a bigger version of that, the RS-28, but it's something that the Iranians already have. So they're just bolstering the numbers, the same with the air defense. What they're, they're lying about this whole game anyway because they don't have overhead air superiority. They have, they've taken the risk to press the envelope because they know that the best air defense is going to be protecting the core. Okay? You're not going to put the best air defense you have at the farthest point away from all of the rest of your weapon systems. But the core defense is so strong that if they turn it on, it reaches beyond the border of your country, even with a country the size of Iran. So right now they're holding back. Why? Well, what did the Serbs do? The Serbs were totally outclassed when Kosovo was being attacked illegitimately by the Jews who were demanding to steal stuff from Kosovo slash Serbia. They wanted to steal Kosovo because of the diamonds, the coal. The precious metals and all the other fun stuff that make up that part of Yugoslavia. That's why Kosovo has always been fought over. And traditionally Serbia has kept it. But in the process, what they did is they shut everything down. You know what they did? They used human brains to target the aircraft. They shut off the ground radar. The crew commander would literally track optically, you know, with the most sophisticated battlefield computer on the planet, his eye. and he had the launcher adjust, they would fire with no electronics on, wait till they were in very close proximity by eyeballing the attack, and then switch everything on and the pilot had no time to respond, but the radars were sufficient and the tracking system was sufficient to kill a modern aircraft. Now, we're in another situation. We now have cutting edge state of the art with all the same deceptive potentials, and the ability to do pretty much to deal with any kind of threat that would be within the theater of operation. The Russians need this test, by the way, because nobody's just thinking Iran. Think about it. If you're the Russians and America finally commits its top-end equipment, and you have top-end equipment, don't you want to see if you can kill our top-end equipment? Yes, yes, and even North Korea. Yeah, this is being reported too. They've now realized that North Korea, they go from North Korea through China, kind of circle around and come through, I guess, I don't know if it's a Belt and Road access point or not, but they're literally coming into Iran and with North Korean missiles. So North Korea is even in there testing their ballistic type missiles. Everybody is using this right now to find out how does our stuff compare. Apparently the Chinese stuff doesn't work at all. But apparently the North Korean stuff does. The Russian stuff certainly works and even a lot of the Iranian stuff works. So this is what people are looking at. It's all being done at our expense. The other day Scott Ritter was even talking about it. Over $4 billion worth of aircraft were destroyed on the ground in Israel. If you can't shoot them down in the air, we'll just blow them up on the ground. It suits the same purpose. This is what I've said forever. Think about it. How many times have I repeated this? Here's your problem. How expensive is the F-35? What does it cost to build? Over $100 million, allegedly. We barely can afford them. That's why we don't have it. Like everything that they designed that was grossly overpriced. And this is the problem with weapon systems forever. There's a balance between cost efficient to build and cost efficient to lose. If you can't afford to lose it, You typically also can't build very many and what they just did is destroyed a whole bunch of the you can't afford to build more aircraft on the ground before they ever got into the fight in the past we would have and I'm curious about this I want you people to all go look at the production numbers even during the Cold War Even during the 50s part of the Cold War When we built a fighter, we didn't build a few hundred, we built thousands. Every model, even the crappiest model, we built thousands. My God, we lost 16 on the ground. Yeah, we go over to an airfield that you don't know about that's part of our storage program and we pull out another 25 and we motivate them, in other words, go through them, fly them to the theater of operation and we replace them. and we have 2,645 more behind it. In just one model of aircraft, we don't have that anymore. And I want to tell you what's really good about it. No, because we've de-industrialized. Yeah, go ahead, sir. I'm sorry. Go ahead. It's all part, no, you're absolutely right. It's all part of the betrayal of NAFTA and GATT. And Trumpa dump, I'm gonna tell you, here's what the long haul of this is. Trumpa dump has been doing nothing but repeating NAFTA and GATT policies now for months. Everything you see, again, I will point out that if you go to the American Peril, there's a map in the middle of American Peril. It's a real crude map, really, by comparison to more sophisticated stuff that's out there. But if you pay attention, even the separation of the Western provinces initially as part of the NAFTA GAP plan, is there. And right now we see all of these components, all of a sudden as if they just dropped out of the sky and everybody goes, well where'd this come from? I can show you where it came from. We grew up with this people in the Patriot movement. This is all the stuff that we warned everybody about and that pecker would piece of trash is doing exactly what we warned everybody he could and now will, would slash will do. And it's a complete betrayal of the country. But we've been set up for this because, as you pointed out, we did the under industrialization. I was talking with Nancy about this. Remember, what was the big scam back in NAFTA and GATT? 1994, 1993. You know what, guys? All of you listening, we don't need to go do any hard work anymore. We're all going to be administrators. Did you know that? We're going to be management. We're just all going to be able to sit on our ass and use our magic pointy fingers and the globalists who betrayed our country would never betray us and lie about the big plan. But that was the big selling feature for the really stupid, though to a degree educated people that you hear that Bob, we're going to be like industrial gods, man. We're going to tell everybody else what to do. Well, what do we have to back that up? Well, what do you mean? Well, are we going to have the ability to produce? Well, we don't need to. We've got those slaves over there. What happens if they're not our slaves? What? What happens if they're not our slaves? That's when you're called black helicopter chasers and kooks and nuts. Remember those terms? Thank you. And I will embrace that. Tony, you're damn right. I'm the one who pointed out the whole idea of why they were black. And you know what? I won't hesitate. I'll laugh at any dumbass who opens their face like this, especially now. I mean, it's to the point where, you know, I'm tired of stupid people and I won't treat them kindly in any way, shape, or form. These stupid people, they're going to try and drag us down while they drown because they just love that globalist idea. And again, part of the program, what was just flying here with this no-kings crap a weekend ago? The hammer and sickle, people. Did you see anybody put that down? Boo, they were right up front with that. Now that hammer and stickler is going to feed them and clothe them and wipe their little nose and take care of them from cradle to grave. And the grave will be sooner. A lot sooner. Especially since we can't let it go any farther, we are going to have to stop this. Let's put it this way. There's so many components. It's not what they're talking about. The distraction of that war is shielding the fact that the Epstein pedophiles are all dancing around, still grabbing kids, drinking their blood, raping them to death, and eating their flesh. There's not one pig out there that's been picked up out of Trump's administration or anybody. that's on the Epstein list talking about pedophiling, talking about drinking human blood, and talking about eating children. And it's not a joke. It's an ogre. They're ogres from the old Grimm's fairy tales. But here's the thing, is right now, guys, we have 11 states that are openly, in fact Virginia, they just passed everything else to go confiscate guns. Now, do you think it's an accident that starting in July in Canada for our Canadian listeners, you just saw that Hindu import that they had, the one with the big Buddha cheeks that looks like he's sucking somebody's rear end, that import from India? I don't care where he's from, he looks Indian. Close enough. South East slash South Asia. Well, he's bragging that they're going out to pick up the guns. They're going to be using local police. They're going to be using retired police. They're going to be using cops that are off duty to go confiscate guns door to door in Canada. But if you pay attention, when does the gun confiscation program take effect in Virginia? Canada just said July. They're going to be operating as of July. And guess what? Go take a look at the legislation in Virginia, July. Now, what do you want to add if we go take a look at the legislation in New Mexico? It's July. What do you want to bet if we go look at Denver, Colorado, and Colorado in general with the stuff that they just passed? And by the way, there's more in motion right now if you guys didn't catch it. It's all centering around the same window of activity, and it's coordinated beyond the border and inside the United States at the same time. Trump and Dump and the rest of these characters are run by the Jewish mob and the Jewish mob is doing all of this. People that are foreign born coming into the country, introducing legislation to undermine the values, the traditions, the faith of our nation. They're the ones pushing gun control and it's almost the same in every state. It'll be someone that is foreign born. Most of them are Muslims or they're from India. Some of them are from African countries but these people have no idea. They have no historical connection to our nation, but they think they're sticking it to Whiting by taking all his guns away. And that's literally what they're doing. That's literally what they're doing. That's what's happening in Canada. Some foreign born pig shows up and we're passing gun control. Well, okay, see this is something I learned here a few days ago. You go to New York City, there's 1.2 million Jews in New York City. There's over 1 million Muslims in New York City and it could be 1.2 million there. So we basically have in excess of 2 million unproductive people in New York City. And I was talking to a man this last weekend and he said where he's at, people literally openly in the stores, grocery stores, hardware stores, wherever you're at, those of you walking along and saying yeah, We need to kill these Trump supporters. We need to get rid of all these patriots. We need to get rid of all these people. Well basically the people they want to get rid of is everybody that doesn't agree with them. But they're openly talking like that. Now if you and I walked into a grocery store and said, you know what all these stupid gun grabbing pigs and puking illegals coming in here, we ought to just get rid of every one of them. The police would be waiting for us when we hit the door. What's interesting is they're not the majority, but here's the thing, they are feeling their oats because they're being supported by the government. The government is promoting this because the APAC Jewish Run Left and the APAC Jewish Run Right all of a sudden will join together. It's what I've said. The Zionists, you have any Zionists around you, they are traitors. Then once they are told by their minion lords that they need to come after you, all they will know no bounds, people. There will be, in fact, it will be perfectly acceptable, just like you're saying, to murder us right where we stand. Which is why I've said all along, you know what, I don't need to relearn this, the bastards just need to die. You better be ready to deal with the problem. Hold on a second, I heard everybody's voice. They're coming at us from one wall and coming at us from part of the wall from another direction. But by God, these are big, tall and deep people. And what's really distracting everybody is that bullshit war which takes everybody's eyes overseas and gets everybody, well, the ones that know, are going to help to stir the pot anyway. We have no dog in that fight and we have no interest in that war over there and by God stay away from the military. But when you see Baron Trump out there up front with a bayonet, you can tell me how everybody's joining in. But you and I both know that ain't gonna happen. No, it's not. Anyway, we got a whole lot of people here that want to say something. I think we had, Ed, before you, we had another voice I heard. Go ahead. Everybody knows who we are. Hey, Southern Illinois, this is Pete Towne and everybody out there, hey, praise the Lord, hallelujah, it's a good Friday, but Sunday is coming. Anyway, Article 1, Section 10 of our law, the people's law, says, ain't nobody in the administrative state can mess with our contract. That's backed up again by Hale vs. Hankel 1906 Supreme Court case. It's stated that the man or individual has the unlimited right of contract. So I'd like to know where these dummies come off thinking they're going to change our contract. That's a breach of the contract. Yeah. Make our day people. Because we're going to stomp a mud hole where you didn't think you had one anyway. So I've got to say it's good to hear your voice Southern Illinois. Well, good to hear you too Peoria. I'm glad you're still alive and kicking. I want to say something real quick Mark, what Jim is alluding to. You know the Constitution of the United States is in fact a contract. But the contract called the Constitution of these United States holds one individual accountable for the security, sovereignty, and the peace of this nation. But the Constitution holds one organization accountable for the sovereignty and the security of this nation. That organization is not the ATF, it's not the FBI, it's not the CIA, it's not the Department of Justice, and it's not law enforcement. That organization is the militia. We are duty bound not only by that constitution, but since this is Good Friday, we are literally duty bound by the word of God to defend, uphold the sovereignty and the security of this nation. A well-regulated militia, a well-regulated militia being necessary for the security of a free state? Well, necessary implies a duty and an obligation. And our right is the authority and the jurisdiction of a sovereign individual, which is we the people, to engage in acts or actions delegated to the high power, meaning from God. Shall not be infringed is very simple. Shall is a command, not is a prohibition. Infringed in the law at the time of the writing of the Constitution implies trespass, which is entry, and transgress, which is encroachment. So we, the duty-bound people of the United States of America that are the militia, we are not only, not only do we have a right, we are duty-bound before God to preserve this nation. And the government may attempt to claim the contract can be altered. We may have foreign-born people coming into this country that may claim that they have a right to change that contract. That contract has not changed until we decide that it is to be changed. Jim, you are absolutely right. We cannot allow these people to come in here and destroy this country. This is why they don't teach the militia. They don't understand the Constitution because they don't want us to understand that we have the power. No, yeah, I'm disagreeing with you. That's kind of what I wanted to bring up. But from another angle of this, we need to do away with refugees coming from overseas. It's too far away to bring them. They bypass our standards for immigration when they do these mass importations because of treaties. None of these people like the Somalias that are here that have refugee status, they didn't have to learn the Constitution. They didn't have to learn the Bill of Rights. But we plopped them down in our country and now we're telling them they can stay and they can vote and they have no idea what our rights are. Some of them do. The immigrants who come here legally, who go through the process, who make it through that filtering system, They probably know better than most American citizens what America is, you know. But these ones that have popped in from the Middle East from China these Arab nations that are with each other We pop them down here with the idea that their refugees are gonna go home when things settle down right, but they never do and They don't have to acclimate because well they have their own culture and stuff from their country So they have to be allowed to do what they're doing because they're not going to be in America forever But they always end up being in America forever Now Ed I would like to add to that please real quick in 2023 90% of all births in the United States were from immigrants, foreign born women. That constituted over 320,000 plus births in the United States. We have found out that there's over 500 or right at 500 businesses or firms in China that literally bring in women from China for the sole purpose of giving birth in the United States. Many times those women will show up in the United States, they'll be here just long enough to give birth, the children are here for a week or two, just enough to get a birth certificate, and then they end up picking those children back. But then, then, they bring the children back in and use the Dossamile laws, not the right of citizenship, but the Dossamile laws, claiming that because that child was born in the United States, or say born in the state of California, or New York, or Unfortunately, Illinois, that these children now have a Dawson Mile right to all of the guarantees of the Constitution. Now many times these children have absolutely no connection to the United States other than the fact their mother showed up, spread her legs, and popped them out. Now that may sound gross or horrible or rude, but that's what happens. But they then, under the Dawson Mile laws, they can bring in their mommy, their daddies, their brothers, their sisters. They can bring in grandpa and grandma. So one anchor baby becomes to be eight or ten people. Plus we have in this country difference in tax laws. I mean, does anyone ever thought why the Indians seem like they own all the convenience stores? And these little hotels? That's because the tax breaks favor them. It's literally an industry. They come in, they benefit from the tax breaks. When their visas run out, they just flip it to another family member. They come in and take over the same thing. And then they basically melt us dry. Now this is one of the things that Doge was, I mean, a part of. But as soon as it got to realizing how much money was being wasted on people for nonsense, all of a sudden you notice they shut that down. And the most powerful, wealthiest man, literally, or put this way, the most wealthiest man on the planet, not necessarily the most powerful, and Elon Musk, they run him out. All because he starts asking questions and starts talking about what he has seen through his Doge people. So you're absolutely right, Ed. We have people melting the system coming in here. Every major city in the United States has voting blocks. And in those massive voting blocks, those people, they're coming in here by the millions. Then, it's like what your dad was talking about earlier. They come in, one of them ends up in either the state representatives or a city council. The next thing you know, they're voting in gun control and they're voting in their cultures, their views, their values, their traditions and their faith. This nation was founded on the value of life, of liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This nation was founded on the traditions of self-reliance, perseverance and an entrepreneurial spirit. and in our faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. That's who we are as a people, as a Western European people. That's how we were able to create a nation because we are free-born men, made in the image of God. We can own land, we can own private property, start businesses, and we can contract between each other. We own ourselves. And I think my brother Jim out of Peoria will say the same thing. And I thank everyone else listening. But this is where we have to get back to. And that's why having this America-only platform, not necessarily make it a party, but make it a platform. Because we can use the power of the county, which is posse comitatus, if we use the power of the county. to run at the county level and take over the counties. The patriots in this country, I believe, within the next, by 2028, we can probably control one-third of all counties in this nation. But we have to be able to take an ideal or a concept, which is America only, and go in at the county level, take control of the counties, take control of the mechanisms of the counties, and then we can actually dictate who runs for office at the federal and state level, rest of the state level. Well, Mark, guess what I have? I know I've rambled on here. I really, I enjoyed listening to Jim. Everybody gave good content, so I appreciate that. And I am going to jump out of the way here unless somebody's got a question to ask me. I just got this to say. D-I-T-D-O. Ditto. I'm down with you. I'm down with you. Good to hear that. You should love, man. Same to you. We're going to work this out. Our way. Anyway, I take it easy. Thank you. It's inevitable that we fight. Yes, thank you, sir. Thank you, thank you Mark. Bye bye. Thank you everyone. That's why we put this program up, remember that. So that if somebody wants to speak your mind. Oh, for the most part. Oh, I'll tell you. The bad guys know that the sand is slipping off from underneath their feet. The only thing is that because of that, this is why they're going into physical attack mode, people. Attention to what's happening on the ground when we stand up. The enemy can't swim here. In fact, the enemy couldn't get here until your government betrayed you and brought the enemy inside the gate. That was treason on a massive scale and there's nothing they've done to fix it. Trump has got the ICE people fiddle-parting around in the airports. I could give the shit less about the airports. But I am concerned with and in fact they demonstrated they are not going to extract the illegal aliens from the country. They are helping to encrank them. That means the war is on. So again, be prepared, organize our McQuibben, frame his militia. God bless our Republic. Death to the new world's border. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. We march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march, march We'll be back! Liberty Tree Radio, and into the weekend. Although you have no boy how the money spent your children must attend a school that doesn't educate and your Christian values can't be taught According to this 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 gold You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and steamy farms and keep our country deep. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children in fear, most sons of the Republic, arise? Take a state, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and eat God-given right. And pray to God your freedom brings. As Iowoki vanished in the midst of this, his words were true. afternoon ladies and gentlemen this is the second hour of the intelligence report i'm recording One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southeast, north, southwest. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. And we're on satellite because so many people listen and then rebroadcast. We're receiving in many different ways, but rebroadcasting, analog and digital satellite. And we might even be participating this weekend over on the middle of the state. We'll see what happens. We can do some traveling this weekend. We'll be there. Saturday night, probably. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. And I'll wave and say hi to our friends in Slovakia. A nation state besieged by the Jewish mob trying to burn them down. Tried to kill their prime minister. The globalists slash the ring knockers are attacking them because they're stepping up to the plate and they want to be free and independent and I think they shall. They're better armed than most Europeans. Slovakia. You know, the other half of what used to be Czechoslovakia. The Czechs are one place, the Slovaks and the other. They probably wish it stuck together, but well, things happen. Anyway, we're also again looking at Cinco di Amo Day. It's Friday. It is Quartermaster and Cinco di Amo Day. It is the 3rd of April. It is the 18th year of Open Obvious. An in-your-face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist. Occupation of America with a Gay 2026. Old Earth Calendar? I'm giving all she's got, Captain! 100 toy fight, I've sent! Ah, and she might still blow up, especially if I touch that shiny red button over there. Whoa, boom, boom! And, 2026 Battle for the Republic Book 3, a dark anniversary, where the enemy within our government that betrayed us had their comeuppance. from both sides. We grabbed some of them, their own, grabbed a whole bunch more because the Ringknockers had to get rid of all the witnesses to the treason in America that they had committed to. Ooh, it was messy. Very, very messy. And it will be. But we're not letting the bad guys have their way, are we now? So, 20-26 continues. We are into April growing season. I have thousands. I mean, I did really well last year covering up all the plant fruit that was out there. And I really think I've got about a thousand volunteer tomato plants that are the hardcore heritage bloom. And I am going to try to save every last one of them. That is a mission because we're going to eat all the food we can get. And as I said, what we're doing is we're doing block planting this year. We're going to be planting in particular locations. Only two crops may add some smaller items. Mostly it'll be herbs. Dill is a high priority because of pickling and such, so we're going to be really cranking all of the critical canning spices up. But all of the creeper slash vine type bean, we're going to be doing every seed we have with the exception of very small quantity held in reserve. And the idea is to put, you know, crank out heritage seeds in as great a number as possible. That is the number one priority this year, not just for the moment, but for the future. So we're working on it and it's been a beautiful day to do just that. Bunch of stuff that's already in the ground and I didn't have to do anything other than like I said, just let it fall in the pot soil where it was. Whatever pots or tubs or even on the ground and I have got some really healthy little baby plants. that are very healthy. That's the other nice thing about that with volunteers. They're robust. Always remember that. So, also, once again, Quartermaster. Right now MREs, we still have the opportunity. We've got a heavy prompt driven going over. Multi-engine. They're taking pictures right now. I'll be able to look at it in a minute. They're filming it from one of the ground cameras. So, As it stands, sorry about that, we have a lot of other things that are going on this weekend, but Quartermaster carries on. And the humanitarian MREs, the cheapest for no shipping. There are others, there's a couple on eBay, thank you to our friends that sent the information. So you can search eBay for humanitarian rations, you'll find that about 1950 of case, if you buy five cases. Remember, each case is 10 one-day meal packets. A whole day's meal. A whole day's calories. For what they are, you add other junk to it. Even better still, but the prices for the moment are very reasonable. It's cheaper right now to actually pick up some MRE items rather than buying off the grocery store shelf with a junk that's just taking place in price. So, again, I mentioned Sportsman's Guide. By the way, they have more of those food tray systems. These were part of a technology they came up with back in the 80s. It has survived to a degree, but it's actually pre-tray cooked. food ready to go. All you do is put in a warming unit, pull it out, open up the lid and you have any number of different foodstuffs in there. Muffins, it can be breakfast items, it can be rolls, it can be bread, it can be whatever. Over at Sportsman's Guide, they have what I think is the breakfast cake slash hotcakes, I'm not sure which, but it is marked down over in the clearance section for www.sportsmansguide.com www.sportsmansguide.com. This should be four of those traced to a case. My recommendation, buy one case. It's in the original transport box. That way it takes all the abuse needed to get it from point A to point B and it's good food stuff. The idea behind this was to offer rations that were more like, well really are, they are an A ration. I don't know if they call them a B ration or an A ration. But they're technically an A ration because they're food ready to serve. And you have so many servings per tray. Now again, you've got to figure that out. I would again buy four at a time and that way you get the original case, they don't open it up. Everything is locked inside the box. It's a really high quality cardboard box. They come in typical for MREs and C-Rash and type items. So it is a very good choice and look to see what they have that they discounted. You really like some of the items. They have them at their regular price which is still pretty reasonable. But there are clearance models. right now and that's what you want to look at. Grab the clearance items. I got the last of the chocolate muffins and those things are like the old medical cakes. They are stuffed with nuts and material. They are very dense, very rich, high calorie items. I used to buy the hospital cakes. Can't get them anymore but during Vietnam if you remember they were the high C can size cans. You know the ones are like the juice cans. About the height of a number 10 can, but not quite as big around. Each cake was just loaded with every kind of nut and high calorie item you could imagine. The idea was to provide calories to people who are recovering from malnutrition, battlefield injuries, etc. They need to get calories so the body can build itself up. All the minerals and nutrients too. That's the big thing. So these are definitely worthwhile. Enough on that. Now, another thing, on ammunition, I will repeat again. Palmetto State Armory, and they might even have some deals right now for Holiday Easter weekend. You might want to check this, see if they got any kind of general discount of 10% or whatever. Take it. But over at Palmetto State Armory dot com, Palmetto State Armory dot com, they have reloading dies, carbide leave for a $33 a set. Now this is a three die set. You don't really need more. I know there's a four die nine mill set. We don't need to do the crimping. It's not critical especially if we're going to recover brass. Minimize restressing the brass as much as possible to stretch out the amount of times you can reload the ammunition. Always remember that. You want to minimally change the dimension of anything on the brass. If you've shot it in a certain pistol and you've got a bunch of glocks, well, the Glock chamber is pretty much consistent. When you use it in that pistol, all you want to do is minimal resizing. You don't necessarily have to do a full case resize. You can do a short stroke on those. And amazingly enough, you're ready to roll. Now, you do a whole case resize, not a problem. If there's distortion or something weird, it's probably because there's something wrong with the brass. Progressively, brass dies. It does get old. Expansion contraction, expansion contraction, expansion, I should say expansion reform, expansion reform. Every time you shoot, expansion. However, getting 14, 15 or even up to 20 reloads on a pistol round, especially for long training where you've got a lot of people put on the range, that's priceless. And again, don't go with even the medium weight load to minimize powder consumption. Go farther down the scale to still get the basic same print at 25 yards. But less powder used means you can reload more cartridges. And all of this is math, okay, basic math to try and get a better fighting force into the field. You're supposed to help make that happen. And you can. So I highly recommend if you have a 9mm, 40 caliber, 10mm, if you go over there, again, Palmetto State Armory, they're not the only ones. As was pointed out, we've got a couple other companies out there. Midway USA has got a whole bunch of stuff on the shelf right now and some really good deals. Primers also. But cherry pick. Now you also need a press. If you don't have a press, Mark, I don't have a, I don't have any dies, but I don't have a press. Yet even a Leo press is fine. The cheapest Leo press. You're doing pistol. It doesn't take that much abuse. And a simple single stage press means you can at least keep reloading. Now what we do is we do factory production. One lee press or o press or rock chucker each one does a different step and we don't change them out We all get together and we set them up sometimes two will do one step two presses And we'll have two sets of dies there But we're cranking out all of these at one step then we slide them over we slide them down the bench They go to the second step that person is cranking them out He puts them on the right hand side or she does slides them to the next workstation And we have a little factory going Now I know there's all kinds of more expensive presses. I've got a Dillon press. I don't have a Dillon electric. I don't have a Dillon conventional mechanical turret press. I also have two or three RCBS and at least four leaves. Not all in one place. And with those I can pull it down. When I crank it down, everything compresses. When I lift the handle, everything indexes. And I can repeat, repeat, repeat. But if you make a boo-boo, you make a boo-boo. So instead, we give everybody one task. Everybody has one job, and they want to focus on that job and make sure that the powder is in the case. Make sure the primer is properly set. Each job, every person has a mission. And the bullet is seated. Everybody gets a pat on the head. Congratulations. Every once in a while, somebody does a quality control check on one item or another. spec'ing them by either weight and or measure with the powder, powder trickler, etc. etc. But we have a straw boss who's basically a quality control inspector. You can all do this. You all need to find friends that are like-minded. You better all get focused real quick on being able to set this type of operation up. Now, one other thing here real quick. Palmetto does have a bunch of other deals on shotguns this weekend. They do about every three or four weeks. They got one or another. But they definitely have a couple of really good deals on pump, 12-gauge shotguns, take a look at what's there. It doesn't need to be anything fancy. The only thing I will say is this. Right now, while you still can, and I know if you may be topped off on everything else but I didn't think about a shotgun, now you're going to get a shotgun. By a firing pin, extractor, and wherever possible, an ejector for your gun. Now, that should be your priority while you can, while it's possible. If all of a sudden the switch gets hit, all of those ideas are dead and gone, you're not going to be doing anything like that anymore. Stuff will be cut off, the system will be cut short. It's part of the plan. It's what they've got in motion to do to America. So we need to have that in the back of our minds. So sooner is better for the smaller spare parts so that you can keep that weapon going. Now here's another trick. With those shotguns you have, if you did buy a firing pin extractor and ejector, break out a little Ziploc bag. Put some grease in it. Take your pick, whatever kind of storage grease you want to use. Then grease or storage spray all those little parts. Put them in the bottom of that little Ziploc bag, like a snack bag. Roll it up real tight. Now set that on the counter. Now take the 12 gauge, grab the appropriate screwdriver, take the butt plate off of your buttstock of your shotgun. I want to give you a real quick. U.S. Iran wore lies. Iran killed 750 U.S. troops in relation. Trump denies claims. Humor is in... 1-8G, I don't know what that means. Yeah, it looks like they struck something big and killed a bunch of people. And that this is probably going to be their remember the main or whatever that they used to try to push us into the war. Well, okay. Are they saying that they're on the... No. They're saying 750 troops killed in relation to... They're not saying where it happened, but 750 troops killed or wounded. I'm trying to pull up the information right now. Well, as I'm saying, is it a ship operation? That's what we need to find out. And they, how nebulous they are, who knows. It could be ship injury. The other consideration is we've been running into civilian areas and using hotels for quartering. And that's becoming more obvious and there's a lot of people who are on the ground in all those countries that don't like us. Everybody's wondering, you think the Iranians are spying. Why? There's a whole bunch of other people in each one of those countries who had relatives we've killed in the Middle East over the last 50, 60, 70, 80 years. They all have long, long, deep hatreds. So, they don't need to be Iranians keeping an eye on what we're doing. It's as likely as not, people who are even working with the militaries of those countries would provide the information as a way to get payback in vendetta to people who have been, where we've been monkey poking the Middle East for decades and decades. So expect that to be the case. They'll never admit it, but it's the most likely scenario. Putting a clandestine operator in the field is not that difficult with millions of bodies, but all of them are to a degree police states. So it's more likely that the indigenous or local population has people who are sympathetic to the overall cause and provided the data necessary. Just something to think about there. So, any more? Ed? Okay, have a location. They're saying it's the Straits of Hormuz, so it could be a ship. But there are some serious fluctuations in the numbers being reported. CNN is the one that was sent to me first, which says 750 US troops killed. But we're also seeing live 4,000 plus US troops killed. missile hit US base, so this is claiming a base of 4,000 plus US troops were killed. That was from 17 hours ago. This looks like whatever it was that happened this morning. There's a big, big difference in the numbers, Dad, from 4,000 all the way down to 200 plus. Well, remember, exaggeration, for the purpose of psychological warfare too, both sides are playing it. But, at the fact that there would be casualties is most likely. Number one, we set up a base on that island, Dad. This is probably the basic, not yet. Well, which, okay, there were a number of islands they were talking about. So, I can't see, they can't get to the oil island without going through the Straits of Hormuz. And if they go through the Straits of Hormuz, the word sitting duck, That's the only way to describe it. You literally can optically track a target in the Straits of Hormuz. You don't have to worry about guesstimation with math. You literally can guide the son of a bugger in. Now, so that means it can't be Karg Island. And Karg Island was fought overall through the... There were all kinds of incidents took place back during the Iran-Iraq War, by the way, for everybody who doesn't know. The interesting thing about it is the twist... Oh, you've got a pathetic meaning. Okay, this is a BS. It's a sight grab, guys. Okay, because this is intercept says nearly 750 US troops have been killed or wounded in the Middle East since. Guys, this is the important part. October 2023. Well, sure. I believe it. I'm sorry. It's like, why is this breaking news all of a sudden? I don't know why the live was here. CNN desperately needs viewers. They're in trouble. And again, remember most of this doesn't have anything to do with anything about worrying about our troops. For all the parties involved, you have Jewish faction A and Jewish faction B, and there can be only one. Now, it doesn't mean they'll kill each other off completely, but they will fight over who sits in the catbird seat. So the biggest issue you've got now is you're also going to have all kinds of different projection generated by one faction against the other, but it's still the same click that APEC runs either side of the fake aisle. And remember, the reds want to introvert. The Communists are already running their banners publicly out on the streets again people. They were who financed all of this no Kings garbage If you don't know hold on what's the guy's name? Hold ahead head it here, but it's not oh I didn't bring it with me from the other workstation I had it sitting right there, but it's not the rolena. No, maybe I do hold on Yeah, I've got it, but it's not on this particular notepad But anyway, oh no, Neville Roy Singham. Neville Roy Singham. Okay, this character is the one who's been financing. This is the supplemental money. The argument is that this character has spent $3 billion with a B, billion dollars, on attacking the United States to try and burn the country down. He is the other Soros type character. My problem, why is Soros still alive? They're bragging about how they assassinate this person and assassinate that person. And Mr. Soros, we know, if I mentioned Mr. Soros' name, you all know who he is. So there's no doubt that, you know, that's the person we're looking for. It's the Soros crime family, as a matter of fact. But this character, Neville Roy Singham, or that they have puffed up. Everybody knows that they're shill companies. The US government does, but it's doing nothing about this character. And this individual, of course, is helping to generate the crisis inside the US that they want for their planned, what, the next summer of love, maybe? Is that what we would call it? Well, here's the problem. It's going to be government that will be coming in to kick your door in, in cooperation with the Communists doing what they're doing. And eventually they'll all be holding hands and while they created the fiction or the illusion that they were in opposition, they are not. So again, the character's name is Neville Roy Singham. S-I-N-G-H-A-M. And propaganda, the tools that they're using right now, the purpose is you're supposed to be mindlessly pissed off. I'm pissed off, but I'm not mindlessly pissed off, number one. I'm not just talking such a way that I'm frothing at the mouth or a panty waste about it. Instead, it's no. I know exactly who the problem is. We know what the problem is. We know who it is that's doing it and how they're doing it. Go ahead. We've got to end the discussion. It is propaganda because I'm sitting here laughing. I'm reading one of the articles that was referenced for this. this number that people were panicking and sending me stuff over. But have you seen this, okay? In the body of the article, guys, and I just posted it in the gilded as well, when we get down to the casualty report for the war, the intercept says that at least 15 U.S. troops have died since the beginning of the war in Iran. Those include six personnel killed in a drone strike on Port... I'm gonna butcher that name. Shebiyat... Shoo... Abideh? It's a Middle Eastern name, it's Arabic. Kuwait. And a soldier who died due to an enemy attack on March 1st, 2026. at, let's see, Prince-Saltsin Air Base in Saudi Arabia. 15 people. And they've inflated the number up to 750 killed. Of course, that number is not accurate. And going through the numbers that they're giving, this is like overall time. And I'm scratching my head. I'm looking at that 4,000 number. Isn't that the number of people that they claimed were killed that were protesters in Iran? That they're saying the CIA didn't support all the troops being killed? Well, tens of thousands, millions maybe, and six million, and they were Jewish. They killed 6 million Jews in Iran-Eustania. They all went from 6 to 16,000 to 15,000. I'm serious, Dad. This is like trying to inflate the numbers as much as you possibly can for this BS conflict to garner outrage over something that was done. And the drone strike, yeah, the 15 dead, that's bad. I feel sorry for the families that have to deal with that. But as far as... blowing this out of the water in the way that they are, like claiming it's, all of them are doing it right now, claiming that it's 700 to 4,000 US troops dead. They're trying to soak you up into a war, but if you go into the body of their articles, guys, do it right now, I posted it in the Guild, read through the casualty listings and when they start, way before this war ever started. Going back to, 2023 and then they go through and whisk every death or casualty based on, you know, terrorist, dual citizenship, all that other stuff to get the number up that high to now that that's the casualty list for this war. But the war didn't start until this year. That's propaganda guys. Right. Now I see two or three others here too. Well again, it's designed to be distraction eye candy is what it comes down to. And again, yeah, it'll get some clicks for a little bit, but eventually people will start shutting that off and should because it doesn't make sense. And the people consistently are repeating themselves with regard to that type of systemic failure in terms of legitimate reporting. It looks great initially for a moment, only for a moment. Okay, what we're gonna do, we're at the bottom of the hour. We finished what I was talking about there a moment ago real quick. Spare parts, take the butt plate off the shotgun, insert the parts after they've been lubricated, put the butt plate back on, and remember that the spare parts you might need are always being carried in the shotgun in the screw channel on the buttstock. There's always a big, long screw channel in there, a lot of room, bigger than the conventional augured screw that's used because they have to use a pan head But it's a wide pan head, in many cases with a shelved head, which is a mock washer, so that they can torque that down into place and lock the stock in. So if you take that plastic bag, put it inside the buttstock with everything sealed, and then put the buttplate back on with the two screws that are there, congratulations. You've got a storage point. Now, we're at the bottom of the hour. Boy, we already played propaganda yesterday. Or I'd say we used it again today. But no, we're not going to do that. Oh, let's see. I did get the request for the cards, but we're not going to do that today also. So there's a couple of requests. We actually had quite a few, or three different points of the compass with everybody kind of thinking the same way. Scorpions, winds of change. We haven't played that. I don't think we've played that yet. Scorpions, winds of one last So those are the two for the bottom of the hour here. A little late, a little past. Ed can plug them in. Scorpions, winds of change. And Creed, one last breath. Okay? You're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. You can write us at pbnpobox194. Dexter, Michigan 48130. And again, scorpions, the winds of change. And creed, one last breath. Also, remember those medical pouches I was talking about yesterday? When I said slick side, those are in the vinyl side, so they really do, you know, again, they're great for moving in and out of another pouch. But not so great if your hands are all greasy and bloody, you know, from handling your casualty. In that respect, this is why you usually go with the Cordura or any of the other harder, heavier Nylons. But for what it's designed to do, if you got it and you got it with your gift package, I would keep it together and put it in your primary medical kit just the way it is, or put it in an auxiliary pouch with your tactical rig so it's attached back into the rear. If you're putting a medical kit together, it shouldn't be up front, it should be to the back because it is a follow-up component. You're going to be putting a splint in place after you've gone through all of the rest of the overview of the body to ensure what's been damaged, what's prioritized, and then you secure for travel, which is why the splints are so valuable. It alleviates a lot of pain by stabilizing the damaged limb. Again, the splints are available from another different sources. Yes, they do have them over at www.shopmedvet.com. Take the time to check out the clearance section. They even have scrubs over there for a dollar, a top, a dollar, a bottom, and different colors right now. Shopmedvet.com. Let's see, what else did we have there? Yes, the abdominal dressings. They also put another number of abdominal dressings in the clearance section. You are going to want to buy a case of those. They're not that expensive, or at least again, depending on a box or a full case, depending on what you are looking at. You have lesser boxes or lesser increments. Each box is part of generally a case. It can be six boxes, it can be eight depending on the product and the size and dimension they choose for the storage box they use obviously. It is old. It's their map, not mine. So, I hate to talk on the music. I'm waiting to see. Or maybe, oh my goodness, wait a minute, I might actually. Nope, okay, we're good there. Checking the mechanicals, you never know if something shifts on me without me actually catching on right away. Also, if you want to do a music request, libertyatprovide.net, libertyatprovide.net, you can also send me an email, many people do, to say if you've got something you want to pass on, libertyatprovide.net. And send me an email with the title, Music Request in All Caps, and then author or band, along with the name of the song. And then in addition to that, a couple of links if you want, or a link for first best choice, for again the version you want to hear. Authors usually do quite a few different versions of the same song. We want to find something that makes sense and floats your boat, keeps you happy. And to do that, we need a little bit of descriptive information in the process. All right. And forgive me, I'm multitasking for the moment because it is the bottom of the hour. We don't have the music up yet, so I assume we've got some issues. And let's see, and I hate to start into a subject, but also let us do this. I want to say hi to Camp Emerson, New Camp Stasa, Camp Wayland North, the Ogham Aranges, Niagara-Hitcham, Fox, Wolf, The one rustic, which we will change that name, we're going to give it a name, the last rustic will have a name. Most of the other facilities when people are building them now, we actually have decided on a name from the get go, but the rustics were an ad hoc off the wall solution because of property that was made available for training by the farmers in certain areas. Each one of our complexes is actually resting on allied property, which is cool. But again, if you're going to be busy out there this weekend, don't assume it's going to stay warm. We've got plenty of bad weather that can show up over the horizon very quickly from Canada, especially from Hudson Bay and back over Lake Superior down here and dropping in the bottom of the state even so had the air cool a couple days ago. We got some nice warm weather. The plants are popping out. Everything is sprouting. As I said earlier, but let's just be safe. Make sure you take your cold weather gear with you. You can always leave it lay. That's what we've said about combat operations. You can take it with you. You can always drop it and cash it. but you can't pull it out of your arse randomly. If it's not available when you need it, you're in trouble. So remember to act in a common sense fashion. Tourist straps or cargo straps for carrying a field coat or if you're carrying a little heavier jacket, you don't want to wear it during the day. Well, up this way, they're talking about a snowy mix, which is a rain snow mix. But they're talking about all weekend having Really crappy weather up this way so everyone that comes up this way better Bring a cold weather gear and your rain gear and stuff because it's supposed to be nasty. It's classic Michigan weather exactly A real quick on that note too because we have had two different fronts hit us yesterday Today or tomorrow, I should say tonight or tomorrow. We may see that down here on the bottom of the state I don't know what it looks like from satellite, but it probably is pretty interesting. And we aren't seeing that Coriolis effect that looks like a hurricane from above, but we are getting mixed weather because of the nature of the season. Don't forget also we have a lot of solar activity that they're not talking about. That's the one thing I think that's always fascinating. It's not what they're talking about. It's what they don't have a conversation about. And the solar sunspot activity has continued to be up and down and that's of course what's creating I think most of the weather roller coaster conditions. Now it is springtime too so we should expect that. We're not going to be surprised if we're here in Michigan. We are in the Great Lakes. Guys, you got these kinds of bodies of water, you got high and low thermals hitting each other constantly. making for a very dynamic weather experience no matter what happens. And everybody needs to be ready for it. Also, again, for those who hold on, I got a message here from, I'm reading it as I go. You're typing as I go. Okay, we do have up at Camp Wayland North, we do have guests coming in from Kentucky. And I think probably from Tennessee also. So they're going to see some unit flags at the outpost at the CP. Traditionally, whenever we have units that bring their unit guidance with them or their unit flags, if they don't have one, we recommend while they're here that you probably should do this. But we have a series of banner holders, basically PVC pipe in a bank. And any unit that's active for the weekend, they put their unit flag there by the CP. actually the conference and command post and or by the signals building which is where the radio micro radio stations are along with the rest of our communications and other equipment and we have over laps for those even but it's a way that you can read the units that are visiting the facility example we have Michigan militia at large Wolverine militia corps and independent militia formations colonial marine militia The CMM uses the green banner, most of you have probably seen it now, the green square standard, traditional square standard from the Revolutionary War. The variants change in terms of the patterns that are sown by the women who are with the unit. It's very deep traditional. It's the original a heraldry slash banner image that you would have seen 1775, 1777, 1778, etc. And it's kind of cool. Each unit has, of course, the ability to pick its own, you know, its representative artwork for its heraldry. And then, of course, there are certain things we ask that they incorporate. I should say that the CMM does. I don't control that. But it's one of those things you should get into it's part of the esprit de corps Unit formation identification and the only thing is remember we're not passive So make sure that if you're going to have a unit guide on you have a spike on the end of it make sure about either a sharpened fleur de lis or a sharpened spike now even the ball meant something the ball you know you could use a a flagpole, a guide-on, as a really effective beat your butt standard tool, especially with a big, heavy brass ball on the end. So none of the images that you see that are used to devices that are on the end of the flag were there for just ornamentation. Poor guy holding the unit banner, if it was the old way back in the day, was usually armed, but his job was to maintain control of the unit colors. It was a very symbolic part of, again, the esprit de corps of the unit pride and performance. something to think about there. And again, when you get to the facility, you'll see what I'm talking about if you're listening and you're going to be up there in the particular location. If it's the first time, kind of give you a hint about what to expect, anything like that. Anyway, we'll see if Ed's there now. And well, we're too late for the music, maybe. Let's see what happens here. Maybe we can fit one piece in, maybe one. I'm sorry, Dad. I didn't even hear it. Shelly just got home. I was letting her in. Well, I'll tell you what, what do we have that might be a little shorter because we only got 15 minutes. Can you hear me? No, let's, yeah. Are you there? I can hear you. Okay, and then what we'll do, scorpions, winds of change. Scorpions, winds of change. We'll do one. Okay. And I'm just looking at some of the other things people are asking. It's like, well, no. Yes, we have seen the other information. Oh, by the way, before everybody forgets, you know three generals were fired today. Oh, I'm sorry, they were told to fall on their swords. Oh, I mean there's a management change in the donut of destruction. When I started my American people, the business side of things. Well, maybe that's the personal propaganda of the live reporting of the so many dead when it's only 15. You've bodied everywhere, man. Yeah, absolutely. Good. We're good. I'm just not one to talk about... I'm not saying... Bodies everywhere since, uh, 2023, but they're claiming their casualties of this war. Well, they haven't buried them yet. You know, it takes time. Just getting around to it. They're thinking about it. Maybe not very much, but they're thinking about it. And again, uh, quick... Here we go. It's got the music. Somebody else here at Ranger. He'd like to make a music request. request, you can send me an email at liberty at provide.net. Pretty straightforward. And we do have still a list. We're working through it though. Actually, I'd say we're doing pretty good considering. As far as I go, OK, thank you. Somebody just popped up every time I have to read the short messages. And nothing else. Can't do much during the program. Every once in a while. Yes, there are enough other things going on with regard to the casualty production. Survival, escape, and evasion situations are bad for everybody. Unfortunately, people go in, will do everything again to rescue a downed pilot or air crew. This has been going on since World War I even. World War II was much broader and more dynamic Korean War. They were very famous for the use of the helicopter to actually bring people back in one piece. The helicopter was first used in World War II in Asia to actually recover individuals in the field and recover trapped individuals who were wounded. So they realized the value of the helicopter and from there the rest is history. In this case, they sent in a black hawk trying to argue that again when they say, well, it didn't crash, it landed. Well, it was damaged, it went down, and they're trying to stretch the vocabulary as much as they possibly can for the sake of propaganda for Americans. The people on the ground there, they see what's happening. The Iranians know what's taking place. You aren't lying to them. You are lying to America. They do this constantly. It's what they're good for in government, okay? But as it is, at least two A-10s, one definitely is a splash, but what they say the other one, damaged and limped or damaged and then the pilot ejected and plane crashed anyway. They started losing aircraft so they started shutting up about it for obvious reasons. One of the other things to remember here from our perspective is this is something we're going to be dealing with in the future on American soil when the ring knockers attack the American people trying to confiscate the guns. It's not an if, it's coming now. They're in motion. So a couple of things that we need to take into consideration is also survival escape innovation in terms of just regular combat operations, not just from the dronotoids and the nematodes and the hemorrhoids, but the traditional air threat. Now there are a number of manuals on the subject, or at least to understand the basics of how to employ all the weapons that you have for air defense. And everybody contributes. This is an American thing, by the way, and it's interesting that as we've been more globalized, the highly aggressive nature of training has devalued into, you know, Stanley Wienerweinerbaum, weeserness, about air threats. So we need to change that attitude. We're going to do it from our end. I don't care what my enemy does. I don't care what the fools that are drinking the Kool-Aid on the other side do. The big thing here again is to study rotary wing aircraft no matter what are all susceptible to air defense fires. It's very simple. If you're flying, you've got to beat the air into submission. You may build an air bubble with wings, but helicopters have to literally create their own lift. I mean, they create it physically, mechanically, armstrong. Everything on the aircraft is critical. Accumulative damage is a very real thing on any battlefield, but specifically for aircraft, they are fully susceptible to anything and everything that you can put down range. So, the important thing is to be prepared to do so. Properly train your individuals to work as an integrated team. But remember, cover and preferably also concealment is critical. The first thing you need to do is take cover, identify threat as quickly as possible based upon what may be the orders of the officer in charge or the NCO in charge as they've been able to identify the threat. And of course then taking immediate action per training. Like everything else, it's SOP, Standard Operating Procedure, that wins out in these situations. You need to be practicing. So that's one of the things we do is practice kind of like a roll of the dice, you know, air attack or air threat. And it can be close quarter air threat drone or whatever. In fact, remember, Dronatoids are also used for reconnaissance, not just for attack. First they got to find out where it was enough. They want to waste a tool on you and to do that they have to get the eyeballs out there and about to snoop and poop. So you need to be prepared for that and we are running out of time so I'm not going to cover all the subjects here, but let's not forget that we have audio collection technology. Drones can be heard coming. Fast or short doesn't make any difference. I should say fast or slow, forgive me. Doesn't make any difference. No matter how you look at it, these devices make a particular noise. It is quite distinctive. It is easily identified. With the proper collection technology, and it's not that sophisticated, You have the ability to receive a significant advance warning from an air threat. In fact, pretty much every air threat because you'll be able to collect and identify the sounds of any and all airborne activity taking place in your area of operation. Again, collection technology isn't that difficult to build, but what it does is it gives you the capability to be able to identify the threat far in advance of it being able to be effective against you. Any warning is significant in changing the dynamic of their ability to make contact with and do harm to you. Let's remember also we have to deal with the thermal threat, the thermal tech, and that's something that's a separate sidebar issue. Yeah, there's a lot of things you need to remember. Some people just go, oh, this stuff I gotta remember. Yeah, well, you're an adult. If you think about how many things you've had to learn, probably working at the job that you're presently at and the number of multiple skill levels that you've attained, what technology you've perfected controlling and operating, it's no different with infantry operations. Of course, it's a much more lethal gameplay situation, but it is possible to survive the battlefield. You just need to embrace and master it. That's our goal. That's our mission. That's what we're trying to do. Help you out in that way. Also, we're almost to the top. We've got Militia Town Hall coming up next. More live broadcasting here. I'm not going to broach you another subject, but to say take the time and go over to Liberty Tree Radio. www.4mg.com. Go into our Discord. Subject that we've talked about, there are links to the images or videos as we've referenced. And if you go back through the scroll, there are also subcategories, remember. But you'll find that what we're talking about here, you can visualize there. You'll be able to see what we're talking about. It's pretty straightforward. Anyway, we're at the top. God bless our Republic. As for the New World Order, we shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run, and we're on the march. So stay in night. And springtime has cruised along so far that I can look outside and there's still sunshine to take advantage of. I might even paint something tonight still because they get warm enough. Anyway, don't go anywhere, don't touch that dial. Ed coming up along with all of you with militia town hall meeting coming up next on Liberty Tree Radio. God bless. the unanimous declaration of the thirteen United States of America. When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident. That all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, It is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such forms, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness. Prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes. And accordingly, all experience has shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism. It is their right, it is their duty to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies. And such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain. Here's a history of repeated injuries and usurpations all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a pended world. He has refused his assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his ascent should be obtained. and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass on the laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public records, For the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his methods. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, reposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time after such dissolutions to cause others to be elected. Whereby the legislative powers incapable of annihilation have returned to the people at large for their exercise, the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states. For that purpose, the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing his essential laws for establishing to judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace standing armies without the consent of our legislators. He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution. and unacknowledged by our laws, giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation, for quartering large bodies of armed troops among us, for protecting them by a mock trial, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states, for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world, for imposing taxes on us without our consent, for depriving us in many cases of the benefits of trial by jury, for transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses, for abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies, for taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments. For suspending our own legislators and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever He has abdicated government here by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us He has plundered our seas ravaged our coasts burnt our towns and destroyed the lives of our people He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. His excited domestic insurrections among us and his endeavor to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless Indian savages whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting an attention to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarranted jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our separation and hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace, friends. We therefore, the representatives of the United States of America. In general, Congress assembled, appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare that these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is and ought to be totally dissolved and that as free and independent states they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all of the acts and things which independent states may of right do. And for the support of this declaration, With a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor. Yes, BS news out there right now. I'm sure they're doing something that they want everything everybody distracted from that That one report was is definitely one of them especially once you get into the numbers and where they actually came from that's just ridiculous literally propaganda guys that that's Manipulating the numbers to make things seem like they're worse than they are you know Let's see, but uh Also going on right now on the same live feed that we posted in the Discord on the Iran Wipes Out 750 Troops US Casualty Cover-Up. On that stream right now they're covering, or at least they were last time I looked at it, they were covering a downed US fighter jet where they were looking for the pilot or crew. It's interesting if you're still following that. It's just a live feed from CNN. Oh boy, where do we want to go? Well, I want to bring something up locally here, which I thought was interesting. This is from KVUEABC down here in Lubbock, Texas. Lawmakers in the panhandle here are trying to convince Texas lawmakers to purchase counties from New Mexico or annex them into part of Texas. It's interesting that would change the borders between Texas and New Mexico. Especially when you consider the size of some of the counties in New Mexico. The counties in the Panhandle are pretty big, but the counties in New Mexico are a whole other story. That's massive amounts of land. There's a video on this. I haven't watched the video. I've read a little bit of the discussion that they were having, but we'll play this real quick here. It's local news. I want to hear this. I want to see what they're talking about. If it's late. You got a pepto-predictiminase. You overdid it on the loaded prize. Yeah, we got it. Yeah, of course we do. What a surprise. A pepto-bismol ad. Haven't seen a pepto-bismol in a while. Wow, that's interesting. Okay, here we go. Hopefully. And let's see. Give us another ad. This video is about 10 minutes long, by the way, so. Shouldn't take us too long to get through this, if it ever loads. of the I see it seriously taking place, but I don't know the politics behind this or why this has come up as a thing. Is this serious or is this just political theater? Here we go. Wait, we had it. This has got some bad buffering. How is this bad buffering and I'm living here? And it's in New Mexico. Roosevelt County and Lee County. Is this serious or is this just political theater? Well Jason, they're serious now. It's three counties and I'm going to be pushing for a fourth. You've got Roosevelt, Lee, and Eddy County. I think we should be looking at Curry County and Lincoln County too. Those are the counties where we seem to have the most. you know, economic, cultural, business, community, symbiosis with, and I think we should be looking at three or four of them. This is serious. Speaker Burrows doesn't, he hasn't pulled around very much, and this was initiated by New Mexico. Two or maybe three of the state representatives there have attempted to ban file bills. to go ahead and secede from New Mexico to be annexed by Texas. They're tired of being disrespected by Santa Fe. They're the workhorses of New Mexico. They produce the oil. They want some consideration in their side of the state. They feel like they're not getting it. And they feel, again, culturally, economically, they feel much closer to West Texas than they do Eastern New Mexico. And they've initiated this, and we're responding. Let's lay this out here for people who may not have been following this. How did this idea come about? It was then. Again, it was legislators from New Mexico have filed bills to DNX. from New Mexico and be annexed to Texas or secede from New Mexico and be annexed by Texas. And they're pretty serious about it. They're very frustrated with Santa Fe. They feel like they are much more closely aligned in their constituents with western Texas than New Mexico. And just to lay this out for our viewers, these counties along the southwestern New Mexico border Their oil rigs are part of the Permian Basin. They also are Republican, Trump voting counties as well too. Is there any precedent for this at all, where one state has absorbed counties in another state? You know, after the Civil War, the Civil War rearranged some of the states. That's why you have some odd little footnotes in Missouri and Nebraska, and that's how that came about. But I don't think we've seen anything like that since. Now, we've had states, you know, we've got Alaska and Hawaii and some other territories have become states, but, you know, rearranging some of the counties from one state to another, I think is unprecedented so far. Now, other states and other counties have been researching this or talking about it for some time. You've got parts of California that would like us to see it in other states. You've got Oregon, I think, actively, parts of Oregon actively wanting to go to other states. And I think we've seen some of that in Illinois and Michigan as well. So if this were to actually happen though, it would take a passage by the Texas legislature, passage by the New Mexico legislature, and then Congress to act as well, but the New Mexico legislature simply says take a walk, Texas. You know, you never know until you know. What does that mean? You know, they're poor and we're rich. Do we buy these counties? You never know what situation they might be in. And, you know, everything seems to have a price in this world. And so Texas, you know, has the ability to extend its power beyond our borders. And you never know if there's a deal to be cut with New Mexico. And if there is, look, we're just, the committee that's been formed has just been formed to look at this. And I don't think it's an outlandish possibility. My business in Lubbock, I'm in New Mexico all the time. A lot of my colleagues in my business and other businesses are in New Mexico all the time. I've had business people and I've had elected officials in New Mexico begging us, developers in Texas, to develop single-family housing and multi-family housing in Portales, Eunice, they can't seem to get it done in those towns. Texas developers are reluctant to go into New Mexico because it's a union state, it's a liberal state. They're not treated very well when they go there, but if they were part of Texas, those towns might just get what they need. Can you explain what's going to happen during the interim here before the legislature reconvenes next year? Do you expect the committee to come up with a draft legislation, recommendations, a report? What's going to actually come out of this? It will be recommendations to see if it is realistic or not. It has got an inkling of being realistic. You very well may see some bills being shot over to the Ledge Council which kind of massages the bills and makes them a little more realistic, a little more legal. And then the Texas legislature would debate and possibly pass these bills. Of course the governor would have to sign it. New Mexico would have to be a willing participant, but you never know. There might be a reason they would like us to take those counties or, you know, a way for us to obtain these counties, and then Congress would have to act as well. One of the other things the Speaker has asked lawmakers to study is the impact of no longer actually having the physical penny anymore in production. You chair the House Select Committee on State and Federal Affair, Federal Relations. What do you expect the impact of no longer having the penny to actually be on local government? Well, we don't know yet. We're going to study that. As a matter of fact, I had a conversation with my tax assessor collector in Lubbock County. They're going to have a panel in June about this issue. Would it be better to round up, round down as a conservative? Of course, I'd like to have people keep more of their money if it's just a quarter of a penny. So we're going to like the fiscal impact on the counties. the Department of Motor Vehicles, TextDOT in some cases because we're not making the penny anymore. Do we round up? Do we round down? They've got no policy on that right now and they're requesting that the state adopt the policy. It seems most transactions today though are electronic or on paper that people don't actually move the penny. I'm just curious, why does it matter whether the penny is in production or not for most of these transactions that actually happen? If I pay $60.21 as opposed to $60.25? Apparently they come up with an odd amount sometimes when it's a percentage of something. So, and one of the considerations might be, Jason, that we go, that you can't pay in cash anymore. You'll just have to use a credit card or a check. And even if you use a credit card, you're probably going to insist on a rounded number somewhere. So, this is one of those things we're going to be studying over the summer and make recommendations to the legislature. Lawmakers also going to be studying and taking a close look at data centers. We have seen all across the state, especially in rural parts of the state, where folks are concerned that these data centers are coming in and will be consuming a lot of electricity, a lot of water. What's the concern like that you've seen so far and what could the legislature potentially do? You know, I've gotten some phone call concerns because people have been told to be concerned. But the fact of the matter is, the way these data centers are designed, it looks like they're going to use a closed loop system for the water so that they're going to get water, but they're going to keep it mostly and treat it and continually use it. It's less of a water usage than an agricultural use right now. So we're thinking that maybe the water, scaring people about the water maybe isn't really what it needs to be. And the electrical usage from Washington to the state they're going to have to produce their own electricity, which might be a win-win for the local entities and utilities and the state because the utilities that these data centers would produce themselves might be able to actually push back into our own grid and produce energy for the rest of the state where we need some. Texas is an economic development state. These data centers could be the dream development. Not a lot of people, not a lot of traffic. They use the trades. They use plumbers. They use electricians. They use construction workers. But there's not a lot of people actually in the data centers operating them. They're very automated. So this might be a dream sort of scenario for business in Texas. It's also important to note that by the time all the technology is rolling over so quickly, a lot of these chips might be self-cooled after some time or not need cooling. So even the water argument might not even be applicable within the next year or five years. Is it a requirement now, though, to have these data centers create their own electricity, or is that just one of the ideas? It's one of the ideas, but it's becoming reality very quickly. The Trump administration is pushing that scenario. I believe Governor Abdett spoke about that a few times and they're willing participants, the developers, to see the benefit in it and it might be again a win-win for everyone. I want to ask about the school voucher rollout. 256,000 applications, a tremendous amount, way more I think than the legislature anticipated in the first year. How much more money do you expect the legislature to throw at vouchers when they come back into session next year? You know, that's a really good question. We're just going to have Let's see, just a few months of the vouchers actually, or the, you know, education savings accounts, we'd rather call them, being utilized by the time we get the session. So I think a lot of us would see how it's actually operating through a school year before we dedicate so much more money to it. But again, you know, our first priority is our public schools. But parents want options, and they deserve options. They're paying a lot of taxes, and I'm glad to see that they are reaching out and want to participate in this new program. Do you expect more money, though, to go towards it? I would anticipate more money going towards it, but again, I think a lot of legislatures want to see how it all falls out, how it all flows before we commit to anything. Good deal. Great to see you. Thanks for the time. Thanks, Jason. Have a great weekend. Hi. Hey, when people who don't understand tech try to talk tech, the... I'm laughing at the one comment there about the... About the data centers memory processors are going to be self-cooled guys you're pushing heat through Anytime you start an electrical current, okay? It doesn't matter what it is maybe DC it can be AC You start running power through something it starts generating heat all right if you've ever Watched how an electric heater how its coil works? It's the same same concept, but on a smaller scale he it see I can't see any way that they would make them self-cooling. Maybe they would have some other cooling system in place, but self-cooling? No. That's not how electricity works. It's not how physics works. Especially when you have so many of them crammed into one building. I didn't know they were putting a data center in out here in Lubbock. I wonder how many ought to to look for that because we're almost in the middle of the desert. Well, we're on the edge of the desert. I jokingly say that, but not jokingly. I mean, if you've ever been in the Texas Panhandle area between Post and Lubbock and going to New Mexico, there's not a lot there. And between Post and Lubbock, it looks like desert terrain. Stupid stuff. Pressing on the annexation of New Mexico counties to Texas. I find it interesting, the way the article reads it, you would think that the New Mexican side doesn't want it at all, but it's the eastern counties of New Mexico that called for this first, not Texas, and it is the Texas legislative houses saying it's partisan nonsense. I'm telling Texas to come and try and take it. It's interesting, although I will say that conversation about having more aligned with Texas than it does New Mexico go back to before the Ukraine war with what was going on in Eastern Ukraine and then wanting to get away from Western Ukraine and how they were talking about trying to be annexed as into part of Russia and Ukraine saying no way You kind of had that that conversation right there minus the translator that has that same feel that the Western side of Ukraine was not listening to the Eastern provinces and remember that even where they had that one general who went and hid in the French Riviera and then came back went out and castrated all the men of military age in the in the Eastern provinces of Ukraine. That's what he was known for when he came when he came back. I'm sorry I just Nothing that bad has happened as far as I know between... I just kipped in there because that thing is still trying to play. We haven't had anything that bad happen between Texas and New Mexico that I'm aware of. So, hey, we'll find out what's happening. That's something I'm definitely going to keep an eye on and want to pass some of that information out to that too. Interesting about the data center out here, I would be willing to bet if they're going to put a data center out here. It's probably going to go in near Ransom Canyon. Ransom Canyon is probably the largest body of water just outside of Lubbock. They might be saying that it would be self-contained. Him being a politician and he obviously doesn't know he's talking about with the technology. I wouldn't trust anything that he said there. I have a whole list of questions now I'm gonna be inquiring about So anyway, there we go. That's what's going on down here in Texicus at least in the Lubbock area. Let's see What else we got here Josh Killen has put up a new edition to the archives and he's working on it. He's moving fast on the whole thing of getting it transcribed and searchable. He has posted the links to what he's got done so far in the Discord. I have pinned them to the Discord channel. So they're at the top there. If you click the pin, in fact, I think, yeah, the last two posts that were pinned are posts from him about the archives and what he's doing with them. So appreciate that. I want to say thank you. I'm sure a lot of people are going to appreciate that. Like I said, I don't have the knowledge to make AI do that. Because that is what he is doing. He is using AI as a tool, which is like what I said. If AI is going to be out there, we need to use it as a tool. And I appreciate that somebody in our camp has the knowledge to make it work and is doing it. That being said though, I've talked about AI music and using AI music as a weapon. Let's see. I want to play this. This is a little old now, but this is about the Supreme Court demonetizing AI-generated music. This more affects the little guys than the big guys. This is 8 minutes and 51 seconds long is from Andrew Chapman, creative. Yeah, I'll just let you generated music was just dealt a death blow by the United States Supreme Court So if you are a musician a songwriter or producer This may affect you more than you might realize let's get into it He said is that every single video on AI is pure speculation. And since it's full of emotions that could skew perspectives, I'm going to do my absolute best here to just lay out the facts of the situation, interpret this news, and let you know where I think it may go from here. A couple years ago, this guy, Steven Thaler, tried to copyright an AI-generated image called a recent entrance to Paradise. This was denied by the U.S. Copyright Office for the fact that it did not have human authorship. They appealed this decision, sent it through the court system. It went all the way to the Supreme Court, and as of March 2, 2026, so just a couple weeks ago, the Supreme Court denied hearing his case. What that means is that you cannot copyright AI-generated art or music with a couple of footnotes, which we will get into in a bit. Ultimately, if you cannot register something for copyright, that means that you cannot own it. If you cannot own it, That means you cannot collect royalties on it. So let me say that again. You cannot collect royalties on art that you do not make. And that is huge because think of all of those AI-generated artists that have commanded headlines from music business publications over the past year and those AI music generation farms that just crank out hundreds of songs per day. they may not have the same financial incentive to continue doing that. Now one of the biggest areas where music makes money isn't in streaming, it's in advertising. And I remember back when I was teaching a college course on audio engineering and music production, we had a class on AI-generated music and almost all of us unanimously agreed This is probably going to be the final nail in the weird advertising coffin in the music business which makes sense because when you think about it, why would a marketing company pay a composer and studio musicians in studio time When they could just get their unpaid intern to prompt a few options and we could go over all those at lunch Like it didn't make sense The interesting part about this is that companies really like to control their public image as much as they can anyways, right? So to underline this, if I were to sing to you that the best part of waking up is something about coffee in my cup, like you know what I'm talking about, right? Or ba-da-ba-ba-ba. You might be loving it. But here's the deal, like those songs are held by the owners of the copyright, so no one else can use them. Which means if you can't copyright AI-generated music, that music will exist in the public domain. And that means that anybody can use that music for any reason at any time. Which is... potentially scary thought for a lot of companies and marketing agencies and could be enough reason to hire a composer and some studio musicians and book out some studio time, which I think is interesting. But there's a lot of footnotes and frankly a lot of unanswered questions here. So we understand the framework, right? You cannot copyright arts and music that's entirely generated by AI, right? However, That is not the only use case here. Like what if AI generates the backing track and you sing on top of that backing track? Can you copyright that song? Or can you only copyright the vocals but the backing track has to stay in public domain? Or, this one's been happening a lot recently, which is, what if AI generates the lyrics and the melody and all of the music, right? But, all of that is extracted out and that is re-performed and re-recorded by human musicians. Is that available for copyright? We need to define what human authorship means in a legal sense. And look, it's a scary world right now, and it seems to be changing by the second, really. And like right now, a lot of us are asking the same question, because we're all extremely passionate about music, right? But we have no idea if there's going to be anything that resembles a career in music in 12 months. Like, is the juice going to be worth the squeeze? And I think the reason why a lot of us are asking that question is just because we're all feeling it right now. You know, like, I'm going to walk us through a little thought experiment here in a second. But before I do, I want to ask a question and think about this. But when was the last time that you did something creatively just simply for the act or the love of doing that creative thing with no expectations of anything? in return. Let's imagine that we all live in a world where everyone is doing well. Like everybody's bills are paid comfortably, everybody has housing and healthcare, no one's afraid of falling behind or drowning. Oh, how glorious that world would be. Now let's imagine the music that you make in this world. Would it be different from the music you're currently making? Probably, right? Which makes sense when you think about it because like it's really tough right now to just make music for the sake of making music. Like we're all pressured to monetize our hobbies. But imagine how amazing the music would be if we didn't have this added pressure for that music to also have to be profitable. Right? Let's also extend this out to my producers and audio engineers. Like, how amazing would it be to engineer and produce that music in the world? Like, you wouldn't have to worry about if something was professional enough for your portfolio. The word amateur actually comes from the French word amateur, which means the one who loves. which is beautiful when you think about it because we live in this world that is run by professionals, people who do things for the money. We are in desperate need of people who do things simply for the reason that they love doing those things. Rick Rubin once said that the last person that you should consider when you're making music is your audience. Because your music is actually an offering to God or the universe. I find myself agreeing with him more and more because when I think about the music that moves me, that speaks to me, oftentimes this is the music that forces a new perspective or tells me a story or makes me uncomfortable. It challenges me, right? Like that is foundational to what I consider good art. And oftentimes this art did not kindly ask for my attention with a lot of professional polish. But it demanded it because it was oozing with authenticity. Alright, there we go. That is just some of it. There are more videos on the death of AI music. It's not really dead. A lot of the rights and everything is actually going over to the companies and the CEOs who own the AI. If you generate stuff, there are other cases, that was just one. That's just one example. That one has gone all the way to the Supreme Court. Some of the others are still working their way up there. I'm not going to be surprised though if we see more of the same stuff where your Your creative idea Because that's what it comes down to did the a As far as human creativity goes okay if the AI is just a tool the AI the AI didn't generate the music because it had thought itself somebody prompted it Somebody put the prompt in there. It was somebody else's idea. Do you own? your idea regardless of to How it was expressed after it weaves your mind That's the gray area. That's where people are arguing about with the courts and who owns that idea. Is it you? Is it the computer? Is it the company that made it? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But yeah, they're saying, no, you can't monetize that idea if you're not the one who It's a bit of physical work when the idea was produced into a physical medium. Anyway, we've been covering a lot on Windows. We've got one more here. There's probably some expletive deleted in this. This is from ClownfishTV again. I can tell from the intro it's probably going to be geeky without sparkles there. He has a tendency to have a little bit of a velocity blow. This is Microsoft F-DUP Windows 11 big time again. Moron, why we need alternatives. There are alternatives out there. Obviously Linux is a big one, but they're trying to close the door on the alternatives. It's a good idea to go and get an operating system, whether it be Linux or one of the others that are out there. I guess Steam actually has even got its own operating system that they're putting out there with their Steam box, which is a computer. And it looks like it's going to be a more affordable computer than the computer's Microsoft's putting out, so that's interesting too. But anyway, here we go. We're going to play this real quick. We'll get in as much as we can, because we're almost out of time here. We're getting down to the last 15 minutes. Good old Microsoft has added again. Apparently they botched their latest update for Windows 11 and they had to walk it back. And this is what, the second or third time in the last couple months? I mean seriously, you have one job, just the one Microsoft and you can't get that right. So this is coming from PC World. Microsoft's botched Windows 11 March update has an emergency fix. See also their January update which also had an emergency fix and the January update was so bad that I decided to drop Windows completely off of some of my computers because I'm like I cannot take a chance with Windows breaking my machine and here we are again two months later. You think they would have learned something? You think they would have learned after last time maybe we shouldn't rush out these updates? these uh vibe coded updates no just no like I'm telling you guys I don't know if you're if you're low-key like doing marketing for Apple or Linux or what's going on here but every time you release a failed update more and more people jump ship Might I also recommend Linux Mint? Just saying. So this is coming from PCWorld. Microsoft's botched Windows 11 March update has emergency fix. Microsoft released KB50806672 to fix installation error 0x80073712 caused by the optional March update KB5079391. Optional. Actually, Windows 11 is optional, just so you know. PCWorld reports Microsoft releases an emergency update for Windows 11 after the problematic March update was paused due to installation error code. Users who experience issues with the failed update should install KB 508-6672 through Windows Update or download it directly from Microsoft. The emergency update includes all intended improvements and fixes from the original update allowing users to access new features while resolving installation problems. This past weekend Microsoft paused rollout of the issue-laden update. This update is no longer being offered to new devices due to an installation issue identified after release. You are a multi-billion dollar corporation, trillion dollar corporation. I don't know how much Microsoft is worth. You are one of the biggest companies in the damn world and you can't catch this shit before it goes out the door. You have one job. Just make Windows work. That's it. That's literally what you do. It was released for Windows 11, 24H2, and 25H2 and introduced several changes, including updates to Smart App Control. But mere hours after it started being delivered, the first users reported error messages with this code. Microsoft confirmed the issues and eventually halted the update altogether. This out of the band does take from Windows 11 version 25H2 and 24H2 is cumulative and includes updates from previous security and non-security releases. This update includes the improvements and features that were introduced in the March 26, 2026 non-security preview update along with a fix for an installation issue that affected some devices attempting to install the update later. They said some update files are missing or have problems. We'll try to download the update again. Here's the error code. Alright, so let's look at the... Seriously! Like, I'm not even angry, I'm just like face-palming every damn month! Every damn month, Microsoft falls flat on their fucking face! I'm telling you, they're vibe-coding this shit. They're outsourcing it to India or something. There's something going on. Because I do not remember Windows having this many problems before. Maybe they need to stop chasing AI... and fix their shit. Like just make Windows work. That's all you gotta do, Satya, is make Windows work. And it hasn't worked right for a couple of years now, let's be honest. But it's getting worse. I mean, seriously, as an investor in Microsoft, you're looking at this company, you're like, okay, you're gonna bet the farm on AI. And you can't even keep your core product running smoothly. Your core product which powers, runs most of the computers in the world. It's so dicey that like the entire country of South Korea, their government dropped Windows. I mean, what the fuck? What the fuck are you doing? This is the previous article. Microsoft pulls Windows 11 update after widespread install failures. It appears some users have problems installing this update, some updates, some update files are missing or have problems. Try to download the update again. A new Windows Update Strategy. Okay, so Microsoft is currently working on improving Windows 11's update strategy. In the future, for example, users will be able to pause Windows updates completely for longer periods of time. Yeah, because you've forced everybody over to Windows 11 And now you just keep dropping the ball. In the past there have been repeated issues with Windows updates like this one, which either had to be paused or fixed with emergency patches. Optional updates seem to cause problems more frequently. This is coming from PC World. Microsoft is aware of the issue and wants to ensure that Windows users experience fewer disruptions and interruptions caused by Windows updates. Then get the fucking update right the first fucking time so it doesn't break people's computers! You're a multi-billion dollar corporation. Who the hell is doing your quality control? This isn't like, oh, we're a small operation with like a dozen people or oh, this is open source. So volunteers work on it when we can. Linux runs better and it's open source. It is not a multi-billion dollar corporation. Okay? Mac is more reliable. Apple is a multi-billion dollar corporation, but at least they give a shit before the updates go out. Microsoft is taking advantage of the fact that everybody has Microsoft on their computer. And you're going to eat the slop because you don't have a choice. Most people don't realize there are choices. Computers run Windows, and that's it. And that's a huge problem. Right? That's a huge problem. This is how we got to this place where people just eat whatever Microsoft serves them. It doesn't matter how it was produced. You know what? I love making the Microsoft videos because a lot of people watch them, but I shouldn't have to make them. Right, it's every damn month. It's every damn week. I mean this company is just stepping on that rake and they want to be the leaders in AI. Are you fucking kidding me? They can't get their own house in order. They can't even get their core product right. You need to get rid of Sottia and Nadella. Like you need to get this guy out because this is some bullshit. This is all happening on his watch and I am convinced that they're gonna literally bet the farm on AI and they're gonna lose. Big time. Right? Big time. because they can't get the ship right. And I think they're actually using AI. I've heard from multiple people, coders, developers, who think that they are using AI to vibe code their updates as kind of a proof of concept, like look what AI can do so we can get rid of all these pesky developers and coders who want paid and they want benefits and they want to be humans. Yeah, we can get rid of them. And this is what happens. Microsoft's... Pause that for a second because that makes absolute sense that I've been thinking the same thing myself every time they've done a slop update like this What's changed with the company guys? AI is the thing that's changed and so if AI is the thing that's changing they're having these problems What do you think the problem is? Where of the issue? The fact that they have to pause updates because Their updates are fucked up says everything you need to know Microsoft is going to have to win back the trust of Windows 11 users and that's going to take more than the empty promises we've heard before. Yeah, this is just a couple days ago. Windows 11 users have heard Microsoft's promises before, that's the problem. Yeah, we're sorry. And they don't say, hey, we fucked up. They're just like, we're listening. We're going to try to give you a better user experience. The problem is that users can't experience Windows 11 because it's broken most of the time. And I said before I had to uninstall it from one of my machines because I got that black screen of death in January. My computer was literally unusable. Right? And you want to trust this shit? All your finances? All your work? What if you fire your computer up someday and you can't get your work done? You can't pay your bills because Windows Had you know had a vibe coded update automatically installed that morning or that night or whatever That's literally what's happening to people Like Microsoft at this point Windows is a liability, right? I think it's just like everything else like just like how people in the creator space built their house on Google's sand and we have gotten hit by that both on the website side and on the YouTube side building your business on Microsoft's house of sand is just a disaster waiting to happen. I think business owners really, especially government, you know, anybody who needs uptime and needs minimal problems, you need to find another solution ASAP because you cannot trust Microsoft. I'm just saying. I'm going to wrap it up. Please subscribe. We'll talk later. Alrighty, there we go. We are just about at the top of the hour, guys. We have three minutes at the top. Don't think we have time to touch on anything else that's been the militia town hall meeting. We're going to close with the Red Skeleton's Pledge of Allegiance, and that'll kick us right into Dave's hand-in-stoozer from the past when we start the intelligence report. Coming up next here on Liberty Tree Radio, stay tuned. I remember a teacher that I had. I only I went I went through the seventh grade. I went to the seventh grade I told when I was 10 years old because I was hungry I used to I work in the summer I go to school in the winter, but I had this one teacher It was the principal of the Harrison school in Vincent, Indiana to me This was the greatest teacher a real sage of my time anyhow He had such wisdom and we were all reciting the Pledge of Allegiance one day and he walked over this little teacher. Mr. Laswell was his name. Mr. Laswell. This is He says, I've been listening to you boys and girls recite the Pledge of Allegiance all semester. And it seems as though it's becoming monotonous to you. If I may, may I recite it and try to explain to you the meaning of each word. Me, an individual, a committee of one, pledge. Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity. allegiance, my love and my devotion to the flag, our standard, O glory, a symbol of freedom. Wherever she waves, there's respect because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts freedom is everybody's job. United, that means that we have all come together, states. Individual communities that have united into 48 great states. 48 individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries yet united to a common purpose. And that's love for country. And to the republic. Republic. A state in which sovereign power is invested in representative chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people. And it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people for which it stands. One nation, one nation, meaning so blessed by God, indivisible, incapable of being divided with liberty, which is freedom, the right of power to live one's own life without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation. and justice. The principle or qualities of dealing fairly with others. For all. Which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine. And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible. With liberty and justice for all. Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country, and two words have been added to the pledge of allegiance. Under God. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from school stew? The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. Iron's 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 this you read about the current news and a regulated press and you pay attacks You do not owe to please the IRS Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold you trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seemingly farm and keep our country 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 they're children Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republican, each God given right. Pray to God, your freedom burning bright. As Iowa key 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 and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. He stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? And good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the second, no, third hour, the last hour, the end of the work week here for the intel report. Of the intelligence reported, I'm Mark Kornke. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. North, south, west, and east. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on... We're also on satellite. and that's analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies both inside and outside these United States and it is Friday. It's Cinco de Amo Day and Quartermaster Friday. It is, oops, hold on here, it is the 3rd of April. It is the 18th year of open, obvious and in your face, Fabian the Socialist and the Soviet Socialist occupation of America with a K. 2026, Old Earth Calendar, 2026, Battle for the Republic, Book 3, a dark anniversary. The first full year of conflict is coming to an end and the war stretches out into its, well, long beginning. But for the bad guys that betrayed America, those in government that rode with the globalists, well, it's taking its toll. The dark anniversary is here. So anyway, it has been a very busy week. We're now into the work weekend. For all of you out there, be careful if you're on the road headed towards training. And remember, common sense, everybody, buddy system, teamwork is the key. Pay attention and cover each other's back when you're in the field and make sure that you all come back safe. Now, you may get bruised. I'm not telling you you shouldn't exert yourself, absolutely. The team system guarantees conservation of force strength. That's what we are trying to do here. So everything that you learn is going to be applied down the road. And I want to say hi, Camp Whalen North, to our friends from Kentucky and I think Tennessee, who are up for the weekend as of this morning and are probably now listening to our micro FM rebroadcasting unit there. Or AM, because you can listen on the AM or FM radio, either one. Again, appreciate it. We have gifts for you while you're here, so pay attention. The coordinating officer in charge, the OIC, is going to be doing a few things tonight. Take care of some of your support needs and give me an idea of how deep our quartermaster support is, how well we can do it, supplying as needed. Take advantage of what's available. We have a lot of work to do this weekend. I will be up probably for the satellite billiard game, satellite crew that's over there in the middle of the state, little north of Jackson, below Lansing. And hopefully we'll be talking to the planet. I know we will. We talk to somebody. I just don't know who until I get there. That's how that works. So I'll find out what the guys are up to this weekend. Anyway, also, yes, we've had a whole bunch of aircraft down overseas. How many times can we just have mistakes where either we crash into each other, we shoot ourselves down, or our planes just drop out of the sky? Has anybody seen the apologist articles? As quickly as this shoot-down took place, there's all these apology articles that, well, did it just crash? The planes might have just crashed! dies, all planes crash. In fact, you wouldn't be lying to say that, oh my god, that plane crashed. It didn't get shot down, it crashed. Well, actually, after it gets shot, then typically there is a crash. Although, actually a conventional landing is considered a controlled crash if you don't know anything about aviation. So, they can fiddle with the words, but in this case, no, it was probably a not planned, not just mechanical issues, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, anything to lie their ass off. You notice? That's just how they are. But reality is, there's a whole lot of people on the ground that saw what transpired. They know why the search and rescue people are there. Most of the videos you're seeing are not videos done from the US government because they won't show you anything. But there are plenty of videos showing what the activity that people were observing from their perspective on the ground. And there's a lot more that's showing up where people have direct feeds into Europe via satellite phone, for instance. There's a number of ways people are getting information out from Iran. The only people who are getting lied to are us. We're the ones that are perceived as the first enemy because they don't want us to catch on just exactly how much is really going on over there in Israel Hell and how it's pertaining to our people getting taken out the same formula. So again, it's not a surprise. There's nothing I'm, oh my goodness, I'm shocked. None, we're not shocked. We know they lie. And again, the first perceived enemy is the American people. That's exactly how they're treating the situation. Again, go ahead, call her, jump in there. I think we got, sounds like, maybe Brad. There we go. Yeah, Brad. I don't know if you got to see the footage of the A-10 that got shot down, but I didn't see any shoots and I'd be very surprised if that pilot survived. Yeah. No, I didn't get a chance to see the, I knew there would be some footage coming out, somebody said. In fact, that's where, I think that's why there was, I don't know if it's confusion or if there's a second aircraft that's down. But initially they said, no, it's two A-10s, but that was based on part of the conversation, was based on the idea that they had different footage. Well, it was footage from a different angle. So it may have been the same aircraft being taken down, but either way, like you said, for every one that makes it, there's another one that doesn't. That's the basic rule. So I'm going to tell you how you should figure the math to the situation. To describe it, you see the missile. And all you see is burning parts, not much bigger than a toaster. Well, the interesting thing is... I'd be surprised if the pilot survived because I didn't see any chutes. Well, I think, number one, remember that they're assuming, and I don't know why, but we're kind of in the same situation we're in with Kosovo when they had the bombing campaign. And they kept claiming that, first you're telling your own people that, oh, we destroyed 80 or 90% of the equipment out there. In order for that aircraft to be taken down, it doesn't mean that it couldn't have been a regional air defense command that did it. But I'd be putting dollar to donuts that it was an area command air defense system because they've got them splashed all over the real estate. They've got them all over the countryside. And somebody was told, target of opportunity, take it. And, you know, through whatever process of, you know, decision making they have for their area commanders, somebody put a bullet up someone's rear end and did their job. And, now whether or not the fixed wing aircraft, the bigger one, the F-15, was taken out again by regional rather than just local section or area defense. That's up for grabs too. I think that they've done the same thing that would be done in a real war with a class A fighting system. Nothing's exposed. Everything is hidden and well concealed. I think it's also generously distributed across the battlefield. And this is why it's deceptive to think that you have safe airspace and you don't. And the end result is what we saw here. Even where they were sending in the support to try and recover the air crew from the first downed aircraft. You've got a number of pieces of equipment that have been either destroyed or damaged badly enough that they'll probably limp home but won't get up off the ground again. And I would point out, it looks like Korea. The Korean War we had the same issue. You had the pilot recovery system. It was heavy. Most people think that you see like a single helicopter went out to save a person. No. They had an entire entourage, just like you saw today, in the air. They had an AC cannon ship. They had the equivalent to a Jolly Green Giant from years ago. Now there's the C-130 mounted. Everything is bigger. But even that, if the right equipment is in the right place, that aircraft was flying at low altitude, and if somebody decided they would be willing to risk the issue, they could have probably taken them the same way. Granted, there's all kinds of overlapping defense, and those planes have countermeasures, but that only goes so far. And the C-130 isn't exactly a very dynamic aircraft in the air. It's a good plane, very reliable plane, but it's not ultra dynamic in the air. So, by comparison to other things that already got shot down. Well, like an F-15. No! Okay. But in Korea, well, one of the guys I served with, I've served with three different men. All of them lost their legs in Korea, strangely enough. But the one was in our with helicopter recovery unit army and as he said if you were the lead helicopter you were safe if you were any of the other three helicopters in line there'd be four total You were up for grabs and usually what they do is they start with the rear end Charlie and work their way forward once they got you into a kill zone Now you still had six wing aircraft and all kinds of specialized support that would try to come in and help and anybody was and everybody was called in and But in his case, they came in, they let him pass into the area of operation where the pilot, they saw the pilot on the ground where he signaled that he was located. The first helicopter came in just fine. They were in the last helicopter. He said, all you remembered is the whole thing shook. Next thing you know, he looked like they were swatted, literally like an egg. They dropped to the ground and cracked. And Chopper was laying outside. He was a door gunner. The other guy that was the other door gunner wasn't hurt. He was. And the guy dragged him out of the wreckage of the aircraft, grabbed him piggyback, and carried him nine miles back through the lines. It was nine miles to the DMZ, not the DMZ, but the forward edge of the battle area. And he walked him on his back with his leg mostly hanging off, already blown off most of the way. And where they proceeded to get into a medic and the first thing they did to the aid station is took the leg off the rest of the way, put it on his chest and then progressively attached it again. So I think it's rather fascinating. But his basic story is yeah, if you were the lead helicopter you survived. If you weren't the lead helicopter, not so much. And now we're looking at much more sophisticated air defense. Yeah, we got all kinds of other high speed, high tech on the support end. But it's a tit for tat equal opportunity dying time situation. And this is a regular military force, not the five year old blind kid you're fighting. The other thing that again is what's fascinating to me, the only people that are concealing the facts from are the American people. The people in Iran are watching all this stuff happen. You're not going to fool them. So the only people that you're lying to or deceiving or deflecting information from is the first perceived enemy of the globalists, the American people. We're the ones they lie to, we're the ones they can feel stuff from, it has nothing to do with operational security, it just has everything to do with playing the rubes. Because they need more meat for the machine, so they got to get people up there, they hope, but that's not going too well either. So we'll see how that develops. Anything else? Please jump in there. Okay, you probably muted. Remember, you might have muted. Now, we are about 15 minutes after the hour at Quartermaster Friday real quick over at Sportsman's Guide. Not the only place, but Sportsman's Guide has that wonderful clearance section where stuff gets marked down and sometimes gets marked down again. They have a number of brand new briefs, U.S. military and others. for some really good prices right now. Under clothes, short clothes are something you aren't going to have enough of. If they buckle the economy, which it's obvious they're trying very hard to do, they want to do it under their conditions where they sweep us by being able to steal our property off from under our feet. Remember, that's the plan. So they have to make sure whatever they do, it's going to be a hard hit. Clothes are going to be an issue Manufacturing for clothing is absolutely in the negative range for that reason we need everybody to stock up and keep stacking and racking especially if it's stuff you probably use every day, which you do anyway But if you are in a situation where you can't even buy the product you want to buy the product, but you can't Then whatever you got is all you got and wearing tears going to be pretty awful With a short period of time now one nice thing the military equipment typically is pretty good quality They do have men's the earth brown briefs of the type you saw with the old Woodland camouflage that particular color range these look like they're newer But anyway, they're brand new unissued obviously no sergeant stripes on the back of the underpants They also have German in white and they have maybe some of the Czech boxer shorts. In addition to that, there are a couple of reindeer items that are last of. It looks like they're going to pitter out whoever gets there first gets the last. So you might want to check that out. When anything gets to the last of the inventory at Sportsman's Guide, they start knocking the price down deep. If you catch it just right, you're going to make the best deal you've ever made, probably working with any kind of retail store. So you definitely want to be there when that happens. So keep hawking that location. Spot check. Go through the pages. See what's there. See if there's anything that makes sense for you. If not, go on to other things. But you definitely are going to want to keep an eye on that on www.sportsmansguide.com. Also, something we touched on a few weeks ago, but it's becoming very apparent in, of course, we're always talking about magazines, PalmettoStateArmory.com still has a number of the A series, what was it, AJ series, a something or AR, it's not AR rifle, but it's a specific manufacturer that apparently has been discontinued. You may want to go to Palmetto State Armory, then go to the magazines for weapons section. You'll notice that there's a few items that are literally dollars, not tens of dollars, but a couple dollars an item, three dollars an item. These are mixed different short mags for some of your restricted states. But also those are kind of handy for certain work. It's good to have a few of those 10 rounders around. But they do have an AK-47 60 round magazine for $7 and whatever pennies. So definitely that's worthwhile. And also 556 AK mags manufactured by the same company. Those are running about $7.95. Those mags are definitely worthwhile. If you've got a 223AK, you can stack more mags. I know they're the more expensive, but this is an opportunity, so go check them out. See what they have over at PalmettoStateArmory.com. Another thing, this weekend, we are going to be initiating what are organizational tests for integrating the shotgun and a shotgunner slash an air defense operator. in the fireteam and squad. There's two different directions we're going with this. Number one, each man is going to be carrying a 12 gauge shotgun or whatever shotgun pattern they happen to have. We're not worried about running out and buying something new. But whatever weapon you have that you're going to commit to, we're going to be carrying that in addition to your regular combat load. What is going to happen though is that individuals who have any of the magazine-fed 12 gauge guns that wants to work or operate as the air defense designate, That individual will be carrying the magazine fed shotgun as a primary weapon. Then they don't carry the secondary, they carry a secondary centerfire rifle, light rifle of some kind, preferably smallest possible package. And in that way, again, we're lightening up the combat load. Your primary weapon should take up the preponderance of whatever your fighting load is. In this case, the magazine-fed shotguns will prioritize a drum. If you want to carry more drums, you can. There are a number of different companies that make 12-gauge drums for all of the magazine-fed 12-gauge shotguns that are out there. Whether it's 2-3 quarter or Magnum, the catamount guns are specific. I don't know about all the rest, but I remember the catamount, 12-gauge guns, there is a difference. The magazines are different. And both are available by the way. One of the places where you can run into the Catamount 12-gauge shotgun mags is gunpartscorp.com. If you have those older guns, they are getting older now, doesn't seem like it, but it's true, the Catamount Fury, those mags are over at gunpartscorp.com, gunpartscorp.com, and CDNN Sports dot com. What we're going to be testing is proper deployment and position in the formation. It would seem to me that just centralized next to the fire team leader or next to the squad leader is where the 12 gauge operator should be for directing fire but also for warning orders. Everybody in the team when they switch to or you move through traveling should be operating in the air defense mode. If you're looking at infantry or progressive once you get to point operating contact you might be doing horizontal fire with obviously your primary rifle etc. and still if you're caught unawares whatever weapon you have you commit to engaging the drones. But a specific semi-auto magazine-fed 12-gauge shotgun operator is going to be the designate and we're going to work on procedure. So this weekend for two different squads, 10 men each, they're going to be practicing and experimenting with different ideas about how to employ. In some cases, all operators will be using the shotgun as a primary weapon, bring it to bear for the purpose of travel. which is typically when you will be caught under ambush or caught unawares with drone, whatever else might be, where you're out in the open to a degree and are more susceptible to being identified. So that's one of the reasons that we need to get on this right away with expansion on the program. And any recommendations or ideas, write it down. And we're gonna go over and review the information base and expand on it as quickly as we can. And then hopefully also come up with an SOP for operational construction of the formation. So that's going to happen one way or another, but we're going to try and collect as much data in the shortest period of time we can. And this weekend is the kickoff. So congratulations, tag, you're it. Also, on that note, somebody was asking about body armor. You know, I will, something interesting, I've never had a chance to really follow through on. Some other people have, and I've never, they didn't get the feedback from them. I know they were experimenting. Does everybody understand that certain professional football armor is actually Kevlar? Has anybody ever looked into that? I know we have. Years ago, we haven't bothered to move into that program. We do have some examples. But higher and higher quality football armor in more recent years has actually switched to Kevlar. What's interesting about this is that is it in solid panel or is it in the striated fibrous variant that made up body armor panels like you see in the older 1950s flak vests, which by the way, remember they had solid panel gut panels down below, and soft armor over the upper part of the rib cage up above. You ever take a look at those? Probably didn't notice it. Interestingly enough, the idea of creating what would be like shock assault armor The foundation for it for screwing any additional, let's say even more sophisticated armor too, would be the football padding systems with the Kevlar laminate armor. And most of the football armor has the same basic configuration as the older upper torso and upper body Roman armor or medieval armor. If you look at how it's built with the overlapping, it has to articulate, but still has to cover. It covers joints, it covers the chest. Interestingly enough, even the solid panel cast Kevlar is actually pretty bullet resistant. No, it's not going to stop a 30-06, but if you were to bolt on slash screw on, additional armor panels, you're looking at something that could be used for mobility purposes, has everything needed to articulate, but critical body components could be reinforced with additional armor panels, which by the way we can get off the shelf, and make for a very interesting infantry assault rig. So that's something else that I kind of asked a few people to look into. I only have so many minutes in the day, so many hours in the day, Well, just so much time. And so for anybody else who can pitch in and help with that, first of all, we need to look at which brands are available. Now, I'm not talking about buying new because we don't really need to. There are a number of sports supply outlets that normally have a quantity of this type of body armor, football armor, available. So as a foundation for some other project concept, we get it right that way, this would be an interesting solution to a problem that I think would be quite useful in the long haul. So just a heads up, be creative. You never know what we might run into. There are, of course, titanium panels. This is the other thing for over laminate armor, for tri laminate armor. Remember, titanium is half the weight at twice the durability in terms of resistance. That's why they started using titanium for chicken plates. Much lighter, but greater durability in terms of bullet resistance depending on the grade of titanium that you use. Another cool thing, doesn't rust, doesn't oxidize. Just sits there and stares at you. It's not as difficult to work with as you might think and interestingly enough there's a lot of different titanium armor panels that have been made in the past. For whatever reason they seem to have disappeared from the market possibly because of price. Not as expensive as platinum or anything like that but it is more expensive and typically who's buying your body armor for you for cops? The government is. And as I've said before they can send you to battle with a loincloth and a spear with a flint spearhead, they would. So they always try to crunch and cut pennies where it doesn't really save anything in the long run, which simply puts you at greater risk because you have less protection. And we're thinking of going the other way. Now the other reason for this is, as you can see, of course the air threat is constant, which includes demolitions, munitions of all kinds. that are hazardous to the health and general folding spindling and mutilating you on a regular basis. Full wrap around and reinforced armor is something we need to prioritize on. If it was a choice between the latest single center body panels that are out there in steel and a level three all service all wrap around vest, I take the all wrap around vest, why? Well, because, well, I don't want to be shot, and I know that I can be. Fragmentation and, you know, fragmentation devices are rampant. You are seeing this with more of the drone activity taking place. And so, high explosive activity near your person, there's no guarantee it's going to be straight front, straight back. In fact, just reverse. It's catch-as-catch-can. However they can tag you and perforate you, they will. So, full wraparound armor and bigger, deeper set helmets, not cut side panels like we're seeing with the new tactical helmets. Defeats the purpose behind wearing a helmet, the whole side of your head and your brain is exposed. Now, we need just a reverse. Again, typically we're going to be in a defensive posture for the most part. So, again, you're going to be bunkered in. on top of everything else, reinforced defensive positions, etc. And you'll be taking advantage of whatever assets you can find in the way of anti-drone and anti-armor technology available. But first and foremost, there's still that unlucky winglet that comes in there and snags you from the side, an angle. You take a prone position, you end up exposing part of your body, being still above ground. And because of that, you get perforated. Where if you had the full wraparound armor instead of just forward and back plate armor, you probably wouldn't have been touched. You probably would not have seen the injury that probably developed. Now, on that note, immediately somebody asks, do you mean get rid of your plates? No, I'm talking about adding additional armor, at least threat level two for full wraparound. And then the plates, whichever size you commit to because that's still rather handy for core defense and then you have to engineer your kit accordingly so you can accommodate the weight because there is going to be some weight applied. We know that. Uh-oh, thank you for that number, that dial-up. Okay, we're at the bottom by the way. We're going to do this because it was only one of the two songs that were the request for the bottom of the hour. We were able to cut it short. We just did one. We're going to follow up maybe with a different piece all together going into the weekend. It is Friday here on Liberty Tree Radio. You're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com and libertytreeradio.org. I'll tell you what, Ed, here's our bottom of the hour music piece, Creed, One Last Breath. Creed. That will be our bottom of the arm music break for tonight. Heading into the weekend. If you are listening from one of our facilities, you can be a DJ. Take the time. Volunteer. If you want to make a music request, email at libertyatprovide.net. That's libertyatprovide.net. And when you do, again, author or band, name of the song, and a link for the version you might want to hear, if not two. There may be a couple of different ones there you're interested in. We can play both of them at one time or another. We'll just put them down in the blue book here and one at a time, sometimes three, four, five, six, seven of you at a time, depending on how many requests we have. We'll put that song up there and kill multiple bird requests with one play. That's pretty cool. Anyway, hold on here. I'm going to grab that coffee and smell. Oh, and the weekend taste. Oh, we are in such luxury. This is real coffee. Well, powdered coffee is real coffee too. You'll get used to that and think it's really good, especially when you don't have any. And one of the things, remember, is we're going to have to still have international trade. We've always had international trade, but when all is said and done, Yeah, we don't do coffee up here in North America. Yeah, I guess we probably could. Maybe there's somebody I don't know about. Well, they used to do it in Hawaii, but I don't know if they really are. I haven't seen Hawaiian coffee in quite some time. It's like Ethiopian toenail clipping blend, you know, same thing. Comes and goes depending on who's stealing who's real estate and which Izzy Blatsonstein wants to run somebody else off their land so they can steal their property and make a profit. Yeah, you know, people need to be gone from our lives sooner rather than later. If all goes well, a lot sooner. Anyway, next real quick here over at also CenterfireSystems.com. They have a number of other magazine deals going on too. And they've had some drum deals. Now they've got one which is a Tits-A-Doom Dual Drum AR-15 mag. If you pay attention, they've got one that's basically an armorer special, okay, tinkerer special. Read the information on it. It's really not that hard to bring them back up to speed, but they are half the price of all the others out there. Same model, it's the Mark I as opposed to the Mark II. That particular drum, kind of useful for air defense against heavier equipment, but also squad or vehicle operators. If you've got a vehicle-mounted piece of equipment, a drum does make the thing a little more dynamic and responsive to your needs. So it would definitely be a good investment. So you might want to check that out. And that's over at sportsmansguide.com. Go into the AR-15 Magazine category. And I think it's the very first thing that pops up. They probably have a bunch of them, probably made a deal with warehouse on what was left. And they tell you exactly what's going on with these things. But if you're mechanically inclined, not a big deal. If you're not mechanically inclined, It's an uphill learning curve. You never know. You might find it interesting. So see what you can do. Another thing about, and I know I just had this right here, 545 by 39. That's the AK-74 round. And I've had two requests right here off the alternate side. Anybody seeing any good prices for any bulk? No, not that I know of. There might be some cans out there with somebody, the spam cans. But an average or decent price for boxer prime, non-corrosive heat annealed over at AIMsurplus.com. AIM. Now the last time I looked, which was two days ago, they had three flavors of 545 by 39. It basically covers everybody's interests, including a soft point round. I think they actually had one soft point round. The other two were ball. and two different weights in the ball ammo. The big thing here again is that they do actually have the ammunition on the shelf, which is kind of nice. Most important is again, if you're going to get into doing that, I would even call. I don't know how much they have. I don't know if you can actually get a case of it. In other words, a thousand round case of boxed ammunition. In this case, it's commercial. commercially produced by Serbia, PPU, Preview Partisans, Boxer Prime, so it's reloadable, non-corrosive. I would say this, that if you don't have any reloadable cases, this would be a good opportunity, but I would also say don't forget that if you have anything you shoot out of any of these rifles right now, collect all the brass. Save all the brass. You may not be reloading right now, But as things get into the hurt configuration, which isn't going to take very long, you will be forced to reload down the road. So let's make sure that we're squared away on that now. And that means saving everything that comes out of your weapon and putting it over into the one-gallon milk jugs, kitty litter. I love kitty litter jugs. They've got the big wide mouth. They're about three gallons. They're heavy gauge, but they're a little bigger, wide mouth, so they're easier to pour brass from. It's easier to put stuff in, easier to get stuff out. Now, if all it feels, you just got the stinking thing open and pull everything out when it comes time to reload, because you're going to tumble it, clean it up, de-prime it, and then go through the load process. But if you're doing PPU, I recommend that you, whatever you fire, you put it back in the box as you shot it in. You also mark it for the rifle it was shot in, something most people don't tell you to do, because your rifle fire formed the case. So if you use it, you only need to throat resize and shoulder resize. the round if you are going to reload because it's already fire formed to a particular weapon. Okay? Saves you a lot of hassle there. So I highly recommend that you pay attention. If you're at the range, again, it only takes a little bit of effort to go a long way towards improving overall performance for your weapons, reducing the amount of work time reloading, and you've got more shoot time that way. Okay? Also, again, dial down your reloads. This is something I've harped on a couple of times, but it's becoming very apparent if you look at the price of powder, smokeless powder. It's not going down, is it? No, it's going up. It's going up just like everything else. So the big thing here, again, is dial down your loads. Drop down the scale a little bit. Experiment. You don't want to go too far because you're going to start seeing a lot more bullet drop, but you can Drop your overall powder weight to whatever degree based upon the scale. Remember, the math's already been done. It's on the loading scale. It's on the loading chart. So all you have to do is follow instructions. Again, figure out where you want to go by experimentation. Load up a limited number of rounds. I like to go five or 10 rounds at a time with a new load and a different bullet. Say if it was a different bullet weight or if it's a different powder charge. and work my way up through the scale that way and see what will work and what doesn't work based on what we can figure out with the process of elimination. So it's a simple step one by one. You can all do this. It's chemistry and alchemy and mechanics and physics, but it's not rocket science. So it really is something you all should be able to deal with. And we do need everybody to gain more experience in that area anyway. Palmetto State Army does have the reloading dies and right now they do have the carbide 9mm and 40 caliber and 10mm 3 die set by Lee. They're carbide Lee die standard thread stock and they will fit in pretty much everything. Again, the first investment should be an old press although if you've got to spend less money Some of the seed presses out there, if there's any left that are still out that are being sold, are relatively cheap. LEED used to make one. It's a simple single stage press that's good enough to get started. Learn. You need something, utility, simple tools are also easier to maintain. It just means you're going to have to either buy a couple of different units. So you have each die set in a different press. And you set up a little factory production, or get used to the idea of mounting and dismounting the dies. making sure that you mark your set for the stroke with the die and the press and you'll do just fine. Now another thing, over at ShopMed Vet, I did a quick check, it took me a few minutes actually, I was eating while I was doing this. Over at ShopMed Vet, In the discount in the clearance section, they have 2 and 4 inch and 5 inch roll gauze for a few pennies a piece. The bigger rolls are slightly more than a few pennies. But you're talking an incredibly inexpensive price. Typically it's $500. I'm closing the bag back up. I was just double checking the size. They're all in this particular pouch. They're over at ShopMedVet. Go to the clearance to wound care. And they have individual cellophane wrap. They're set up so that they're isolated from the environment. For the small ones, it's 500 count to a case. Now, you're going to have to pay attention and go through the literature for each one. I think the larger roles are 500 also, but it could be one of them is a 400 count case. If you're trying to keep things simple, as far as for them, just grab a box, put it in your order, and send it down the road. The advantage of this is building up first aid kits or building up first aid sets. Now, if you go over to, and again I'm going to take you back to the Sportsman's Guide, www.sportsmansguide.com, if you go in there, there's a MilTech vest. Now they may give it some other title, but it's over in the clearance section. It is OD green, but they also have it in camouflage. It is actually marked down quite significantly right now and they probably will mark it down more as they get closer to the last of the inventory. This particular vest has a number of large format utility pouches. Yes, you can use them for mags, but this particular vest is one that we use and have been using for quite some time as a medics vest. So girls, guys, If you're looking for a utility vest, put the pouch that I've been talking about here today in. You can add more pouches to it. It's a really nice little simple rig. It's already put together. All you've got to do is figure out, adjust it for your girth. And it is a ready to play piece of equipment. Now typically there's two things we add to the operator's kit. Number one, a utility OD green bag to match the web gear, and a satchel, a utility satchel, whatever model of first aid satchel you want to use. Between these basic components, and the satchels are basically prepackaged bulk units. So when one runs out, you hand the bag back to the unit. You pick up another refilled one, and away you go. The backpack. is the other half of your field trauma surgery set and or system. Now there are some corman bags that are out there built specifically for that purpose. But what's interesting is there are quite a few of these new day packs that have seven or eight, nine pockets on them. Three primary bins or pouches that are part of the main bag. A large one, two smaller ones. And then there's other pockets. Pouches are molly strap points. So you can attach a whole lot of other gear. This makes for a very consistent and you can build a uniform medical support kit that all of your people will recognize and you can train a lot of people to use, motivate them to pick them up and actually utilize this pattern. And that's over at sportsmansguide.com. Go into the clearance section. I don't have the number for that vest. You'll see what I'm talking about. It is OD Green. Although they're claiming that it's flecked tarn and it might be a camouflage flecked tarn pattern, you'll have to look to see what's left. But as it is, while the color might change, the basic vest is the same. What we've been doing for the time being is going with OD green because that way it's consistent from one medic to the next. All the rest of their gear is from other wholesale services that I have for the other pouches. But you can go through even Sportsman's Guide right now and there are some very reasonably priced utility packs and pouches for that very purpose. Pick out what it is that makes sense for you. Not all of your women are typically stocky slash football players. So remember we have to limit what we're going to be carrying. If you're going to designate female personnel as medical support, you have to tailor your equipment accordingly. Don't forget that. Don't assume because a lot of people, well, everybody has variance in their capacity, their capability, and we need to keep that, you know, in the back of our minds whenever we're organizing or engineering technology. Everybody has a ratio limit, you know, you can only carry somebody pounds depending on how big you are. That's typically what limits it despite, you know, motivation. Still comes down to there's a basic weight to tactical list weight formula. That's just all there is to it. Also, again I want to say thank you, we had a lot of help this last week. I mentioned it but I didn't get a chance to talk more about it real quick. We had the Ohio, it was a five county FTX, we had the Ohio Guard, you know, militia guard. I think we had Eastern Ohio regulars and we had the a Grand Army of the Republic militia from just over the border south of the Michigan border and they have they had a hell of a time. They're actually focusing as I said before on medical and communications. They do have infantry but this weekend some of the guys will be up up here at our in our neck of the woods actually up here in our county. We've got a separate little FDX going on. It's gonna involve a couple hundred people. And I think we've got Michigan Wolverine Corps from Hillsdale and Michigan Wolverine Corps from Washtenaw County along with, and hold on here, who else is going to be participating? And a couple of other independent militia platoons. So we'll be in the southern Jackson area. We're going to be down there with the 18th. along with other groups and the Ohio guys are coming up to visit. I think it will be about 60 maybe 70 people total that could make this weekend. They really committed the last weekend and had to take a lot of their personal time up for that. In addition, a reminder that if you are going to travel, come up with something in the way of a heraldry gift that you can leave on the wall. We're going to start doing that. I know a lot of people have done past coins in the past. That's a little pricey for a lot of people. But there are other things we can do. There's like a unit, like the equivalent to a unit shield. And we've got artists in every one of our, everybody's got an artist in their group. Or people who can do particular skilled trades. And just an idea. I have a gift from one of the units. It's a cut unit patch done with a laser cutter on steel. And of course, House Corn Key, our individual logo, is of course mounted. Any of you that have been or have visited have seen it. But we have a smaller version of that, which is one that the guys give whenever they visit other militia units around the states, which is kind of cool. So it's simple wood frame, circular. It's done in a shield configuration, but it's laser cut with the unit motto and the unit's symbol. In this case, the fist with the dagger. And it's pretty cool. I mean, very simple to do, easy to put together, and a great way to commemorate at different training sites or different facilities or just when you get together. It's a great way to again commemorate the activity and say thank you. So we're starting to get that in motion. Of course, it's not the first priority with all the other things going on. But it's one of the many things that we're doing because We need to work in depth. The purpose here is to build for time. When we're done fighting, we're not dropping the militia. That can't happen. The reason that we have the problems we have right now in this country is because that was allowed to take place. That all has to change, people. We're not going to do that again. We're not going to let that happen again. It is the militia as part of the American People's Check and Balance tool. Remember, especially again, it's the sword and the shield of the American people and their freedom and liberty, so we are going to develop. We aren't just going to sit on our laurels once we're done with everything. Plenty of work to do, and we need to continue to expand on the concept, not let it rest, not put it on the shelf. That's why we got to where we are today. Everybody thought they could rest. In fact, On the plains of hesitation lie the blackened bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory sat down to rest and resting died. Don't ever forget that. Also, let's see before I forget, yes, the three generals. The chairman, not chairman, the Chief of Staff of the Army was forced to retire today, kicked out, fired, retired, take your pick. which is kind of odd in the middle of a combat situation, but two other general staff officers were also kicked out, slash kicked down the road, take your pick, whatever you want to call it. The fact this is happening now rather than, you know, happening a lot sooner, if this was an issue, if these people were a problem, why were they kept around? Unfortunately, because we know we have a dictator, you know, that's the second word is a potato with a hole in it, the first word is you figure it out. dictator. Well, when the potentate, you know, feels threatened because or has a failure and has to blame somebody else for it, it's the Queen of Heart Syndrome off with their heads. So whatever is going on, whether they were planning maybe some other activity we don't know about, anything is possible. We have a major mix up. Now it doesn't mean that you can't deal with a chain of command. We're supposed to be, if you're in a military formation, expect it. Now you wouldn't think that the guy that tore up the chain of command is going to drop on you because he's probably not anywhere near a war zone. But it's the nature of the beast because you're in a fighting formation, the army is a fighting formation, that attrition will take place. But this was administrative attrition. So whatever is going on, it's possible that the OID boys are getting rid of anybody they might suspect won't go along with the program or would put a stick in the spokes with what it is that they're planning shortly. Remember that whatever they're going to do, it's going to be in country, not out. They're frustrated. The bad guys have not been, you know, things haven't been going their way. So it's most likely that they are going to commit to the Mossad Act of government-sponsored terrorism against the American people and that means you guys are in the crosshairs. Well, they're kind of arbitrary with this stuff and maybe somebody didn't feel comfortable with where they were headed might have even voiced an opinion and immediately for the Emperor who has no clothes it was off with their heads. The rest is history as they say. Hey, they didn't execute the guy, they just sent him off to the cow pasture. Oh, he's retiring. So, you're being given the chance to fall on his sword that way. Either that or they're killing dead in a doornail from the sodwood and then he'd be just gone. So, we'll see what happens. We are at the top. It is going to be a very busy and long weekend. Good. Everybody stay focused. Do your part. God bless the Republic. That is a new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And have a great weekend. We are on the mark. We are going to be back on Monday, but meanwhile, yes, we will be up there mid-state for the satellite work on Saturday. And yes, we will be here in the local for the training exercise, but we'll be visiting different locations. So for everybody out there, keep your radios up and online. Don't forget, our CB network is fully operational this weekend for that reason. And we will be back on Monday at Take It Over, more Elk Care coming up, and it is Friday and into the work weekend on Liberty Tree Radio. Bye bye.
