Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper to control. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and sh- You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and suddenly farm and keep our country deep. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters, this 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 rise, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great republic and each god given right, and pray to God as I awoke he'd vanished in the midst of he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. 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. Living memory makes for a very dull situation for the enemy to create crisis. We've never seen this before. Yes, we've seen all of that before. And all the new stuff too that isn't new. We'll run that in a minute. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the Tower of the Intelligence Report. I'm our krunky, one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. Southwest, Southeast, Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. Libertytreeradio.org. And we're on the satellite. Say hi to all our merchant rain operators out there. No matter what body of water you happen to be resting on at this particular moment or inland. If you're with our lads, oh, I'm with our crew. Actually, I am. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies inside and outside these United States and it is Monday. It's been Monday all day. The sun has been beaming. The wind has been blowing. It has been nonstop. It has been out of the south. Started out cold. That's what's really funny. We had cold coming out of the north all through the weekend. Nonstop. Nice, steady flow of wind. Great for wind generators. But then all of a sudden it stopped and it turned around. Well, or something overtook whatever it is that was pushing it. And it went the other way. And so we've had a wind out of the south and southwest nonstop. And we've brought warm weather. It's supposed to be up to about 70 degrees, I would say at least. That's true. But what's interesting about this is, again, As clear as it is, you get a sunburn in 15 minutes. Whatever is going on with the solar activity they don't want to talk about, it's obvious. Anyway, it's 2026, Older Calendar 2026, Battle for the Republic, Book 3. And it is the, oh by the way, the 4th of May. Anyway, real quick, a bunch of stuff going on. Needless to say, they're stirring the pot. You know, DC's for Brains, Trumpa Dump is, continuing to ride the shipwreck down at our expense, but he's being told what to do. When Mr. Beebe says jump, Mr. Trumpadump says how high and where do I land? Even if it's in the cow turds that he could have avoided. If he's told to land in the cow turds and Mr. Trumpadump does, it's what he's good for. So anyway, there are a bunch of other interesting things in the Middle East. Of course supposedly, well who knows, plus, minus, and different. It's George Orwell 1984 across the board as it always has been when you listen to any propaganda from the US military about any BSing we supposedly have been doing, whatever it might be. But a naval ship may have been hit, may or not have been hit. Let's see, other boats, ships may have been hit, may or not have been hit. We don't know. How can you tell when they're lying, when their mouths are moving? It's just like they said, we have total air supremacy. Then it turns out that well, the story that kind of bleeds out. Usually they wait until after a big, big, big, big conflict. But it turns out that a gaggle of older aircraft did a pretty good job of performing the mission they were designed for decades ago. And I will remind you that that is always true. Every weapon out there is as deadly as it was originally built, you know, to the level of performance it was expected from it, when it comes to folding, spindling, and mutilating, okay? Nothing changes there. It's a matter of other weapon systems around it. Again, we've gone full circle, so to speak, with all of the other fun things happening that they were able to effectively use the technology that they had because of lack of a well-rounded, in-depth air defense system to begin with. I've talked about this for many, many years, decades actually, and we're now seeing this come full circle to slap everybody in the head. Because the Jewish mob is stealing your country blind for every penny it can pill for out the back door, grafting corruption probably constitutes, just like a non-profit organization, about 92 to 98% of whatever it is that they're collecting in tax money is being run sideways to the Jewish mob or to pay off the turds that route the money sideways. And because of this, Very little is actually spent where it should be. Of course, the troops are still expected to risk their lives. If that's expected, we're to be sacrificed. The goy are sacrificial, easily sacrificed. And so what you have here is a situation where the vast amounts of money stolen mean that the work wasn't, you know, material wasn't purchased or acquired where it should have been. Nothing had changed with regard to the actual concept of how the battlefield is fought and what's going to be done. And it's interesting to note that because of this, well, whole elements of the battlefield are wide open. Now, this is a matter of utilizing. Well, gee, what a surprise. They said, oh, they're utilizing unique ideas with old technology. And it's like, no, they're just mixing things up. There are only so many things you can do on any battlefield. It doesn't make any difference how you look at it. Special warfare can only work so long as you have certain other elements involved. And otherwise, it doesn't work. And that's something you don't want to talk about in tutelresses. You'll be absorbed, blah blah blah, special this, special that, blah blah blah blah blah. What a reality what it comes down to is if you understand the nature of the conflict, it's not difficult to predict the activity of special warfare units, what they're going, how they're going to perform, what they're going to do. That's why it wasn't really all that difficult. to deal with the little problem in the southern part of Iran, the combination of internal lies to the people who thought they were buying Iranians. They have bitched about that now. And the fact that the Iranians were able to play the characters that thought they could buy Iranians. And because of that, well, things just didn't go quite the way they were planned. It's not a surprise there. In fact, it should have been expected. And as it turns out, this is true with regard to all of the other elements of the battlefield that we're facing here. You're not facing. I'm not facing. Those people are still in uniform are, though. And it's not going to be a happy camper situation, no matter what, because you have now, instead of the five-year-old blanket with the seeing eye dog and the cane, of course, most of the time he just has a cane because they're poor. They don't have the dog to eat it. We're used to going across the street and beating up and mopping the floor with the guy that doesn't have anything. And even if, depending on who you run into, they still can do a pretty good job of killing you back when you're trying to murder them on their own property in their own country. Well, it's worse when you have somebody who isn't the five year old kid with the seeing eye dog and the stick, but rather has full capability of all of his senses and is willing to fight for his cause, which is what we're running into here. We aren't on the high ground. We're not on any moral high ground whatsoever. In fact, we are right now in a criminal posture across the board. Americans are responsible for that because we've allowed these criminals to go as far as they have, both the Jewish mafia and their minion Zionist schmucks who are more than happy to rape, kill, pillage, and burn at whatever order is given by these foreign nationals who, by the way, still hate all of the fools that they're using. including the xiofools that will go along with the program. Whatever they're told to do, they will do. Now, here's the thing. You'll notice, they still, no matter how hard they try, there's two problems they have. Any terrorism on American soil is going to be, not the Iranians, it'll be the Israelis. I think enough people listen and understand that in talking amongst themselves that bad guys have had a problem. If you try to kick something off here, if you try to kick it off here in the United States, we're looking for the people who actually did it. And if you've been around, and again this was saying earlier about having too many people who have been around a while, it's why they want to kill off all the old people because it's like, nah, we've seen this before. These people are liars. It's going to be the Israelis. Be prepared and watch for the Israelis. The good thing I have satisfaction in is that we've talked to enough people or motivated enough people that we now have a pretty decent, masked army of individuals who are looking for that to happen. This is a double plus good thing because again, they can't just slink in, do the monkey poke routine and slink back out. It's just not that easy anymore. Too many eyeballs, too many ways that everyone can commonly watch. everything else out there. While they are building up a massive police state with the data centers which are purely for the police state, purely for manipulation and control and destruction of the Bill of Rights, they are not going to make our lives better. They're not going to fix anything. They're not going to enhance anything except for the police state powers that they hope to grab if they can disarm the population. This still comes down to there's more of us than there are of them. And we actually have a pretty good idea about how to get rid of them and do it in a very fast manner. Go ahead, Gorg. Capturing the perpetrators, there's also tens of thousands of people out there that are eager to use their little camera phones. Oh yes, and so the problem they've got is that this is not jumped off for a reason. The Iranians are not stupid. They know that America has basically about a 15 minute attention span. Maybe, I think that's giving them too much credit right now. I think a good portion of just basically what's the latest distraction for the moment. You know, flowers, so I can see the notes of the music. Let me grab them. Go ahead, call the jump in. Yeah, there is a lot more of us than there is of them. That's very true. However, there's a lot of cowardly and then there's a lot of stupid people out there that want to stay in that comfort zone and are scared of dying being killed by the enemy. Well, yeah, the cool thing though is that the enemy in and of itself, the actions of the aggressor typically get people up off their dead ass. mostly because once you give the Hughes-Yth IQ Power Freaks a little bit of a nudge and they start going crazy town, it all of a sudden motivates a whole lot of other people to get rid of them. Everybody learns their lesson. Now, my argument on this for as long as I've been on the air is, you know, the American War for Independence would have been shorter if everybody just jumped up, but not everybody did. It's true, exactly as we just pointed out by Paul. In the American War for Independence, it's not that it was one-third didn't do anything and one-third, you know, were placement and then there was the difference. Supposedly it was only 3%. No, it wasn't. It was much higher than that. The number that went maybe internationally, or should say interstate, which became the Continentals, which later you would know as the Regular Army, were a faction that ran all over the countryside. What's deceptive about the numbers that they always use is remember that every one of the colonies had to defend itself and provide an army that had to be fielded as a mobile unit that moved across the continent, not even most of the continent, just along the continental shelf. The most expansive effort that was deep into the continent was by Benedict Arnold. in his actions against Canada and then his operations around Lake St. Clair when he built an inland navy and fought slightly deeper into the real estate than the average bear. Which by the way, the bottom end of his defenses was Fort Ticonderoga if you look at the map. He built the fleet north of Fort Ticonderoga, actually operated north of Ticonderoga. Everything else was coastal. And so for this reason, you know, this is like we talk about artillery. Did the continental forces have extensive artillery? Well, they had some artillery, and they were always short because they were also having combat losses inflicted upon them. But guys, there were, in any given colony, there were virtually thousands of field pieces of all sizes, if you count from infantry guns to, as in, short two-pounders. conventional coastal defense cannon. Well, they couldn't pack those up and give them to the Union, or, if we're going to make it to the Union, giving them to the continentals because they needed them for defense of the coastline. The one thing we had was a mobile aggressor with the British Navy, and what they don't properly represent and show you is how extensive our defenses were. Now, were they as strong as what the other side had? Well, it depends on where you were. Some batteries, some coastal defense units fought tooth and nail and in fact fought dynamic actions and pushed the British back. In other cases, they were overwhelmed. This is what happens on a modern or even in that battlefield of any era. You know, you get it, you win it, lose. You win and lose. Sometimes you win real big, sometimes you lose real big. But there's always having to, as I said many times, you have to roll with a punch. You have to be ready to get back up. You take a hit, you absorb it, and you punch right back. But the the big thing here again is that we outnumbered the British forces on the ground here the French were a great assist and I disagree with the idea that oh the French didn't show up the war would have been over it now if you look at the projection of strength at the end of the It's nice that the French showed up. Probably the war would last another year, but let's understand. They also acknowledge that Britain started to get involved in a lot of other activity. It was already to a degree, it had its toe in the bathtub with other actions both on the continent and other parts of the world. So it wouldn't have been any better off, worse off, but it wouldn't have been any better off and we had sufficient development of strength. that we were seeing successes at virtually all levels. The big thing about attacking the militia is because of the power freaks that were looking for greater control. They had to talk down the people being armed or the militia because they wanted centralized government power for the sake of being able to steal stuff from you at gunpoint. through taxation, which is what the speculators, read the Jewish mob, always do to a population when they steal the land off from underneath their feet. So again, we're in the same situation right now. Intentional confusion really is not relevant mostly to what we're doing. An example in the Middle East. I have told everybody I can do not sign up for the military. Now of course immediately they're threatening the draft. Well if they're threatening the draft, in this day and age would it make any difference which service you went into? If you knew you were going to be drafted, a lot of guys during the height of the Vietnam War would sign up because they could pick their service. If you were drafted, you'd be pulled into whatever branch they chose to throw you as a dart into. What board do we want to hit? Let's try that one. There you go. Hit it, dead center. You're a Marine. Maybe you didn't want to be a Marine. Some people, again, with the history they had, well, if I'm going to get drafted, I'll go Army because Dad was in the Army, Grandpa was in the Army. It's just like the Corps, same thing. Everybody usually joins up because there's some kind of history or background. In this particular cycle, there's no deep affection for any particular branch. There's fewer and fewer. With the public fool system, the way they've set it up, there's nobody that's all that excited about dying for the regime because they've all been told the regime is evil. So, as I told you a few years back, remember when Desert Dust Part 1, going into Desert Dust Part 2 was out there? You had all this propaganda, pumping it up at the football stadium, soldiers, troops running through fire hoops and coming out amongst the smoke grenades that had been set off and, you know, there were me planes flying overhead. You'd have Navy SEALs or Airborne or Rangers paratrooping in from above and landing in the football field, etc. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Only because it needed more corpses and they were having to use and do volunteer force. Now, I don't know that any of that's going to work for them now because they went so hardcore under their assumption that they were going to get the rest of their way to destroy the country that they undermine, now that they need the corpses for the meat grinder, they're having a problem trying to pump in the program or make it work. Nobody, I mean, pick a direction, but people are, you know, not even people, contrary to what, again, many people have argued they're doing, is they're hitting the switch and, you know, on and off, but they're doing it so close rather than there being some kind of a swing with some kind of a developed projection to get everybody motivated. Well, that's dead. That's gone. It's not there. Which is good now on the other hand keeping what you got here Well the police state if you're gonna have to fight something fight the police state if you really want to fight something Fight everybody's would be home fight on American soil we fight for a purpose We're not gonna steal anything from anybody. You're just not gonna let them steal from us And that's the part that they realized is not you know that's not what was planned it's not the way it's not the game they expected and More and more people realize Well, not grudgingly, but progressively they're realizing that the fight's here. That it's not over there. You have a conversation with a whole lot of different people, and again, I get the same response from pretty much all of them. This thing can't be settled without a conflict on the on American soil. Canada's in the same boat. Now, they're trying to back off. They're trying to do everything they can for the sake of propaganda to maintain confusion. But what they actually do, and again, they've done this over and over again. It's the pilot program scam. They will initiate what they yap about through the controlled media and the fake social media. But as soon as everybody's eye is diverted to the next BS session, well, all of a sudden, that's as far as it goes. It was never planned on going any farther. They actually already knew what they were going to do when they were going to hit the switch and how they were going to deflect everybody. So in country, the border is not sealed. The wall slash fence was not finished. It didn't even come close. In fact, everybody now is realizing, wow, that was one of the first things they said they were all pumped up about. They were looking for the parts. What happened to the money for that? Well, the Jews stole it. The Israelis stole it. It's that simple. They stole it. And what happened to the, you know, deporting the illegals? Well, the Jews need slave labor. So, Trump was told to shut up, sit down and, you know, do something to keep everybody busy. So, you had all this fiasco and myopic crap up in Minnesota. Totally irrelevant to the idea of deporting 8,000 people a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. And so, they created such a fiction with regard to conflict. that they successfully backed everybody down about the idea of actually dealing with the problem they promised to deal with. Nothing has changed. Now, with regard to operations here, I'll tell you what, ooh, we're going to stay close to the clock on this one. We are almost to the bottom right now. But one of the things to consider is the idea that they're trying to desperately pull everybody's eyes away from the country People are looking at the food issue. We've all seen what's happening with the gasoline and by the way, the gasoline hiccup has got to catch up. You know, it's kind of like a slinky The gas turns forward and everything is in limbo for a bit, which is what happens with a slinky. You get that one hesitation. You ever watch a slinky? But then all of a sudden the rest of the slinky gets pulled forward and the kinetic energy, of course, with the spring does the recoil, the spring leaps, the back of the spring leaps forward and all of a sudden jumps significantly forward. That's the best way to explain the shipwreck intentional fiasco that they've created. It's just a really wicked slinky. Right now, all the gas prices have gone forward about a dollar a gallon in what? Seven days? Less than seven days because there was two jumps. There was actually a third one here. And they popped everything and broke the $4.00 barrier to go all the way to $5.00. Or, I'm sorry, $4.99 across Michigan here. And in a few places, over $5.00. But it didn't break the $5.20 mark. Once it breaks that 20, it's just like I said, it's like silver, it's like gold, it's like everything else. Once it pops that, it will stay at that plateau. It may come down close to it. It may come just a hair below it, but it will not drop to any significant level. It will continue to rise and in fact quickly will climb back up, headed towards that next 20% tier. and you know, it will be at 120, 220, 320 ticker pick. Gas lien is the same way with what they're doing with the pricing. They tested the waters and the prices here actually already backed down by 15 cents in the last couple of days. And I think it's because when you drove by the gas stations over the weekend, they were ghost towns. Because it's like, no, I guess I'm not driving and that in turn affect all of the economy even for that one day that in fact that will affect the economy for three or four or five days maybe even a full week. Does everybody understand that? Yeah, that's where that's that's the part that they're seeing math wise. People aren't just frivolously spending even though there's a lot of people who are frivolous and a lot of people as I pointed out they are sometimes in a box of rocks for the most part Everybody is kind of paying attention. This is a good thing. Okay, we're good. We're gonna do two. I gotta see. I gotta shut up and actually give Ed some information here. Stronger dash the score. Stronger dash the score. That's the first one. Stronger, like strong. Stronger dash the score, S-C-O-R-E. Again, that's for Sheila. Stronger dash the score. And the second will be, oh it's too long. Forgive me, we're going to have to wait. I'll do it as a single song. I've got another one here. Great song, just too long. Even the short version is too long. Well, it's possible. We've got wind and clear. Let's see what's happening here. Hold on. And one and a two and a one and a two and a two two three two there we go. Okay, what? I want the help. We'll have some fun with the other request. Men at Work Down Under those are the two songs for this hour and for Sheila over in Pennsylvania that's the first one and the crew because there's two or three or four people mostly from our friends in Alabama and also East Texas. Over. Here we go. What is Vegemite? We got Mark. 1, 2, 3. Now we might have lost him during the break there, let's see. Maybe? Seeing your unmuted. One, two, three. There we go. There we go, now. Whatever. For whatever reason, we had a little fading, but I adjusted the antenna accordingly, and now it's happy time. Yeah, anything? Or just checking to see if I was still alive? No, just checking to see if you were still there. Whatever time you was here before, I did not hear on my end you were crystal clear the whole time. Okay, that means it could be a Tom Zinn, the warbling, well, wibblewobbler. Wibblewobbler, there we go, yes. Couple things here real quick. The bad guys are rehashing pretty much all the junk that they've done before trying to deflect everybody. Look, it's wonderful. Would you rather have had Kamala? Yeah, in a way. I've told you that before though because this always happens. We've got Trump a dump in, he's no different from any of the others we've seen before. By the time you're done, the enemy will advance in several different parts of the battlefield. All of a sudden, we'll have the flip, as they always do, run by the same Jewish mafia because AIPAC runs the Democrats and AIPAC runs the Republicans. The Republicans are in the slow lane. purely for the purpose of deception, but they're still moving ahead with all the communist agenda across the board and will do everything they can to attack or will not assist anybody who is pro-patriot who is in a fight to defend themselves. We got a caller, who do we have? We got Thomas. But don't you know? Don't promise, he promised us money. We're gonna get Harris and we're gonna get Gold's money. Yeah, and I'm not holding my breath on any of that under the assumption again, let's assume the worst and we won't be disappointed, the first people that deserve it. Remember, let me go over this. MAGA, Make America Great Again, meant absolutely nothing because again, the Jewish mob took the cash and is running with it and on a massive scale. America First sounds great, but that doesn't work because it implies what? It implies that you're standing in line. America first! Wait a minute, who else would be in line here? Oh, shut up! We've got other people that are in line and they're going to get to cut after you're stupid enough to go along with whatever the agenda is. You see how that works? And who's next in line? The same parasite wallet munchers that have been screwing us this whole time. So America first doesn't work because it implies somebody else is in line for your money. Usually why you're in line is while they're stealing your money. While they're pickpocketing you. Okay? So we've got a situation here again where America only is the only answer. America only, all others, not at all. As far as Kamala, the horse being in there, that'd been great. We've been shooting your ass already. We've been already into conflict. We'd be able to deal with this problem as it is. Trump-a-dump is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic at his end as ordered to do so by BD Netanyahu and the Jewish International Congress. It has nothing to do with being pro-America. It's not. It's, you know, the goy need to be the whipping boy slaves. for the Jewish mob. Why aren't we dying and bleeding over there right now? That's their bitching about that already. Again. Hey Mark, I've told you I've been listening to back episodes of Tex-Mars. During my travels over the weekend I listened to him quite a bit. He was citing, I think it was either 2016 or 2017, he had a guest on. And the guy said we give Israel $11 million a day. Now that was then. If anybody has the numbers for how much we give them a day now, I'd love to hear it. Over. Well, I think one interesting aspect of that is looking at the tickle meter for the national debt. We capped out, we're at $9,000,000, forgive me, $193,000,000. We're at $39,000,000,000, and some change in billions right now. I told you it'd probably be the end of the week, beginning of the week. It turned out it was over the weekend when we rolled over. And I think that all that represents is how much is being shoveled out the door as quickly as possible to the Israelis. They are moving it to all of their globalist international accounts. They are thieves. They are parasitic. They are trying to buckle this country. One of the things anybody who proposes a cashless society needs to be executed. Anybody who is pushing the cashless society slash the global banker thing, they need to be dead. That's as kind as I can be because whoever is proposing it is a shill and has sold everybody else out. Everybody, they're kids, your kids, my kids, everybody's kids, doesn't mean we're whose kids, but everybody in the population, you're all being, you know, shafted by a series of traitors who we cannot suffer with having in this country and they will have to be gone. There is no way to survive for any period of time if you try to acquiesce to the Castle Society scam. We will have to get rid of them, we have to execute them. I don't care who it is that supports it. They're all in the same boat. They're all part of the same croc. I heard somebody today making, in fact, I'll tell you what, Gorbirra redacted. Now you've got this bimbat who's up there and it's like, you were talking about the chip, part of what they were talking about was the chip today. And I caught it because it was just before the program. I very quickly did a spot check because redacted has some pretty good guests so you can follow up and find out what they're up to. Well, the chip is not important because there's this and that and the other. No, the chip is important because it's part of the foundational, remember, least expensive process for getting the job done. And the idea that in Sweden the chip technology has embraced 100%, well, I'm not going to Sweden for anything then. In fact, now what it tells me is I don't think I'm going to be buying anything that comes from Sweden and I don't think anybody else should. I think we need to boycott Sweden across the board. All the Israelis are a problem too, but this castle society crap, this is purely for the sake of absolute abject slavery. That is its only purpose in life. It is to create a servitude slash slave mentality. With you being able to physically have your wealth in hand, you choose your direction. If you cannot do that, if you cannot take the fruits of your labor and translate them at your choice to what you wish to do with them, then you are property of the state. It's that simple. Well, I don't want any slaves, don't want to be part of any slave clique, so putting a bullet in their ass is pretty much all that's left in that situation. And it's pretty stinking obvious that that's where that's headed. What is interesting though is just the way the person, she wanted to talk about the dust, everything else just, you know, the Everything we've talked about 40 years ago is now being rediscovered by everybody from the, you know, the techno dust, which is the nanotechnology in many forms or nanotechnology first introduced in whatever form and then by dropping materials on you from the air, the building blocks are provided, your body absorbs them, the nanotech of course manipulates them, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. This is all crap we knew in 1993. and the craft was all available in 1993. And even though it was, the chip is still especially getting, when you get fools to acquiesce to something like this, well then when the time comes and they realize they're screwed and they start to lament, you can look right at them and go, well you made the choice to do this. You sold your soul to the devil, not my problem. So you can't get out of it. That's the first thing they'll tell you. You can't get out of it. Well, that's why you don't get into it. And that's why a war for independence is what inevitably is needed sooner rather than later. I don't care if you're in Canada or if you're in the United States. We're all in the same boat. I will say again, though, that Canada and the East have its own war for independence. You guys need to shake off the chains. And then in a very, very, let's just say, hopefully anticipated development, you guys having learned to break the chains will then be effective allies with the same foundational construction that we have which has to do with the idea of us not being subjects. We are not property of the state. We are free living individuals of the land. We are souls. We are spirits. We own ourselves, they do not own us. Now step by step they try to convince everybody to be stupid. That's the whole idea behind everything from the 1913 creation of the tax and also the Federal Reserve. Which by the way was a tax unto itself because we're being charged for the money that we used to make ourselves, our own country made our money. Well, of course the Jewish international bankers hate that because of their manipulation processes. So it's evil, horrible, terrible, and bad for you to be free. Well, of course, every tyrant and every peckerwood servant out there in the past is usually the same Jewish faction doing it. Of course they hate you for being free. Of course they want to, you know, properly re-enslave you. And of course you're going to end up having to fight for that reason to save yourselves from that problem, from that predicament. But this is this is nothing new there's anything I saw that you know the interesting thing is the chip technology in of itself one of the things to remember is if it's ruptured if It will poison you okay will damage you will hurt you on top of everything else and it's all old tech now It's been upgraded. It's kind of like saying I qualified on the Hellfire Missile in 1975. I did. I qualified on the Hellfire. I have the qualification paperwork right here with a whole bunch of signatures on it. But the Hellfire has been upgraded. The Hellfire has changed, not extensively, but effectively. You'd have to have a relearn on it, right? Well, the same is true with the chip technology in that as things have progressed over the last 30 years to compress, even more material technology is on board with the chips that they now have. As much as anything, it would mostly be storage. Yes, I know there's all the other manipulative elements of the chip. But the big thing is in all cases is storage. Now whether or not they needed that much storage? No, not really. And again, the only reason for all the modifications is that with every spyware and overlapping unnecessary programming for the purpose of eyeballing everything that everybody does, if we didn't have the spy police state, most all of the older computers and equipment, as I've said many times, would function as well as anything that we have today. We wouldn't need all of the extensive upgrades, or supposed upgrades. In reality, they're not upgrades. They're just expansion of the police state module that you're willing to help support by paying for. That's all it is. If we got rid of the spyware component of all this nonsense, amazingly enough, we could run with a whole lot less and we would of course save a whole lot with regard to natural resources and materials. They don't want that. It's like comparing the data center thing. Okay, how is the data center efficient? And what possible reason would you need, except for a police state, to have such a massive number of artificial intelligent processes, because it's artificial, he doesn't mean everything, AI as you know it now, it's all artificial. Computers are mimicking human brains, that's what they have tried to do for a very long time. They're mimics. Well, how many mimics do you need? Consider what your laptop computer does now. Your laptop computer or the one. I'm running a dinosaur by comparison. But look at how much I can do with a gaming computer that was built probably 12 years ago, 15 years ago. It's antique by today's standards. Interestingly enough, I can do everything that I need to do. Books, music. Massive storage space. I can add more storage space, not a big deal. So the only reason for all the rest of this is for the sake of creating replacement manipulative processes or oppressive manipulative processes against the population through the technology that they're embracing. It is a weapon, you know, a weapon ready to be used. And for that reason, we need to be ready, gotta be ready to fight it. Go ahead, I heard a caller. No, I was just saying, that's exactly right, it's a weapon getting ready to use against us. Yeah, we need to be ready. I know we've doubled their efforts at laying down the orange cable lately. And data centers in that orange cable all tie in together. They are redoing one of the state highways here. making it a limited access two lane on each side, you know, four lane road. It's been a rural type of road where you can make left turns across the median and go down the side road. They're eliminating all that, they're blocking off all the side roads, and they've started putting in overhead cameras. And yeah, it's all, they've just, Jim, my wife, when I went to lunch yesterday, we took a good drive because it's been a kind of an anniversary date for something. And she pointed out like 16 cameras on the way. Well, I'm driving, she goes, wow, I don't get to see this because I'm usually driving when I go this way. Because as a passenger, I can see a whole lot more. And they're just doing that everywhere. cameras and cameras and cameras and cameras and they use the data center not just to collect the stuff but they've got processors there and AI which are going to extrapolate all of this information and it's at their fingertips. If you had a thousand people in every city doing it they wouldn't be as efficient as that computer is. So that's why they're going this route. It's literally like Jones used to say, it's a prison planet. That's what they want. Over. Well, one of the other, well, we're almost to the top here, one of the other things to remember, by the way, we won't just complain without demonstrating solution. High output lasers of whatever kind you can find you need to invest in. They do not have to be weapon system lasers. There's lasers out there in all kinds of different way shapes and forms. If you pay attention and look around, especially derelict stuff that's functional but is being replaced. As I've explained for many years, Lasers, typically what happens with a cheaper laser dies because it maintains its original form when it's cool, but as it heats, the tube distorts and what happens is it's mistargeting. This is why you see a lot of those little lasers that are part of your scanner system at the grocery store. Look how many different...if you ask the operator, if you see somebody who's doing maintenance, how many little lasers are in there? Now, to a degree, sometimes they're using...they always use prisms and reflection surfaces so that they can minimize to maximize. They still get the same read. But for the most part there are multiple little lasers in there. Is that enough to destroy or burn out a camera reception unit? Not necessarily, but they do. Those serve other purposes. We use those for a lot of other cool things when the time comes. But any number of different off-the-shelf lasers are effective at utterly destroying the collection technology that they put out there. Now, eventually, or even now, to some of them, I guarantee even have laser defense screens. They have filters. There's a reason, because they're planning for. Remember, these people are planning on waging war on us. We need to be prepared to effectively wage war against them. That's why the American population is armed. as part of the countermeasures to an impending or proposed police state operation, that would do what we're talking about doing right now, seeing right now. Go ahead, call her, jump in there quick. We're at the top. Yeah, at least in London, they're taking down 50 of those cameras a night over. Yeah, oh yeah, absolutely. If you've seen them, they're using cutters. There's a number of ways. They can beat them down, you can burn them down. I mean, when I say burn them, I mean, we would know that it's happening. Remember that you're looking at sensitive technology here that actually can be defeated in a number of different ways and completely eliminate the program. And again, as you make more and more enemies, it's very easy for a lot of people to join the bandwagon, especially if you can do it in such a way, well, if you're smart, first of all, you don't carry your cell phone. You don't need a cell phone for doing the work you're doing. And right off the bat, this is the other reason they want the chip. Because right off the bat, you're off the system. Now, if you're smart and you be a little creative, there isn't any way to follow you if everything in an operational area in terms of camera technology is destroyed. Now remember, here's the other interesting thing, and Darj has brought this up. Most everything they're running a fiber optic cable for. They're not running it for us. They're offering it, Mercury, Broadcast, and all these others, which are the SHIL companies for the database fiber optic to be put in all over the country. This is an extension of a program that we pointed out in 1994 that was already in motion and then got stopped because it couldn't get any more funding. We got the funding stopped. But this program is nothing new. We warned everybody about it. We mapped out the in-road survey technology, which by the way is all wireless tech, or was, except that it still has to be hard-lined in the area of operation. It goes from the fiber optic to a certain hub, the hub then rebroadcast by wireless. Well, they decided that wireless may not be the best choice for the program obviously because they've committed to hard line connections. Now what does that tell you? Because they understand too something I've talked about forever is that everything that's broadcast over the air, guys that can all be jammed. That can be knocked down. That can be just neutralized. It's simply ineffective is the best way to describe it. So, they're looking at fiber optic because with EMP you don't have the collection with copper wire. However, you still have the threat to the hubs and whatever because there's a certain amount of conventional electronics that are on all of these systems. But lasers, microwaves, you can build a microwave and just be eating at the system, just constantly bombarding it. You do to them what they do when they're microwave targeting of the population, like when they're zeroing on a location that we have or something, where they're bouncing it off and dropping it into a target area to mess with your head. Well, a cheap, simple version is a microwave oven. that is properly re-engineered and modified, then it's just pointed at a target and you just bleed seed non-stop. Doesn't take it out right away, but it just starts eating away at the tech on board. Some point, final component failure, system is shut down. Patience, and not only that, but you might also watch to see who comes out to try and find what you did. And if you're gonna be in a shooting war, knowing who your techs are that you're gonna have to get rid of, We should get rid of those techs. No ticky, no washy, no fixy. Just something to think about in a real round conflict, which you're not supposed to figure out. It's like, well, if they don't have anybody to fix it, how do they operate? We actually are seeing, oh, hold on here. I thought you dropped because you were over the target, dude. Yeah, we were rolling something. No, we're rolling. So you got some stuff rolling in outside too. Anyway, my point is that with all of the different solutions, you can diversify. And if you can diversify, they have to first come up with, and in fact, replacement is the first rule. Just spend more of the taxpayers' money. Eventually, they have to become more aggressive. Everything that we see turns towards them flipping more of the cards with regard to the big-ass police state that they're planning on trying to ooze onto us. Number one, we're not going to go along with it. Everybody, in fact Canada, like I said, you're a tipping point. America's in the same boat worth tipping point. We're, you know, defecator, get off the pot. In this case, we're going to have to step up to the plate. We're going to have to deal with the problem that's being presented. The one good thing is the enemy is so damn arrogant. It's the best thing that could possibly happen. It's why the only thing that's better is if Kamala Harris had been in. If Kamala Harris had been in, everything that we've seen happen would have happened anyway. But all the other characters who normally wouldn't get up off their ass probably still wouldn't anyway They'd be so terrified of the idea they actually have to face the enemy and if you look at all their conversations It's always come on. Here's a good man. We lost our rights Oh, you're such a wussy that you're going to let them take your rights You're such a limp dank, but you're gonna let them steal the bill of rights. You're such a limp dank coward You're such a worthless tool. Is that what you're telling me? They're gonna take our no, they're not We're going to get rid of the sorry asses. Your dollar is to it. They're not taking anything. They want to take something. We're not going to allow them to play that game. Homie don't play that game. OK, we're going to take a break though. Homie's a little over. By the way, so let's take a, we're going to hear the music here in a moment. We're going to take a break. Top of the hour. For all of you out there, listen to libertyfreeradio.4mg.com, libertyfreeradio.org. God bless the Republic. Death to the New World Order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. And we're on the march, both day and night. And all of you are the solution. It's just that simple. The bad guys know it. They realize that they have to try to desperately baffle everybody with BS about how it's futile to resist. It is not futile to resist. They have to have... or at least the energy to be able to get their aerobics system in place, they have to suck off our lifetime, people. And again, we don't go along with it, they don't have anywhere to go. That's the part they don't want you to think about. So we gotta get rid of the problem, we gotta get rid of that. And that means little dirty work, time comes, lot of dirty work. We're gonna take a break. You just back, grab a cup of coffee and we'll be back with more dirty work conversation. right here on Liberty 3 radio. 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 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 should give government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and only farm, 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, this is to send artillery and guns to foreign shores. And send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise! Defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land! Preserve our great Republic in each and given right! And pray to God your freedom breaks, as Iowawke vanished in the midst of whence he came. His words were true, but we have ourselves to blame, for even now as tyrants trample each and God-given right, we only watch and tremble, too afraid to stand and fight! If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer? He called out from the grave. Northwest and South. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. There's a whole bunch of people picking us up and then rebroadcast us, analog and digital. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies, inside and outside these United States and It is Monday, the 4th of May. It is again, 2026, Old Earth Calendar. 2026, Battle for the Republic Book 3, a dark anniversary. And it is rolling out there. We got a little bit of rain. We have bright blue, burn your butt sky. And then we had a front roll in pretty quick with all that wind coming out of the south. And we had a sprawl, okay, with big lumps of rain the size of your thumb. Not much of it, but a little roll and thunder came along with it That's why I kind of hesitated to make sure to keep an eye on who's upside Everybody's screwing to get stuff covered up put away, and they did a good job. Oh, it has been a busy weekend We had a memorial for Terra on Saturday Thank you for all of our friends that showed up and everybody did a you know I think did well it was a Good event good opportunity to say goodbye everybody did and Again, she'll be missed very much so. That's the only thing, but we're going to carry on and we're going to see what we can do to find ways to keep her in constant memory. This is something that we all need to remember. We need to keep our allies, our friends, our family alive, but to do it, to continue to do it, we have to make that happen. We're the ones that have to speak up. And it's not that difficult, but it does require a little first thing in the morning, jogging the gray matter and again adjusting accordingly so you can get the job done. Let's see, I'm looking, I see that. Thank you. Over the weekend, I was not there on Saturday for obvious reasons because of the stated activity I was participating in. But I want to say also, thank you, we appreciate all the people that showed up at Camp Wayland North. We had visitors from Iowa who came across the big motive in Mississippi and participated in an officer's, a junior officer's training course, not just any in production junior officer's slash draw boss training course. We use the term straw boss because, well, again, that's just how it works. For the moment you're in charge, next minute you may be gone, somebody else is taking your place. While you're there, try to do the best job you can. Again, we will lose people. We need to be prepared for that. But everybody had a great time. We shipped out a whole bunch of stuff in the way of information, shared some of our sweatshop information that our friends from Southern Illinois provided, thank you. And it has been recopied yet again. They're going to take it out there and copy all of those disks that we already copied, et cetera, et cetera, and share the wealth and knowledge. Go ahead, Gollard, jump in there, please. Do you find out when the training is up this way? Actually, they're posting the schedule tonight, so I will know. Oh yes, well as a matter of fact, there's one that you specifically need to be familiar with. I'll get that off to you. I thought everybody had already taken care of that. Excuse me. So, don't worry Tom, you'll have the message. How about that, because I'm still on injured reserve until after the 6th? Well, no, it's always out still. So you're good. Don't worry about that. Depending on what you think you're talking about okay, trust me. We'll figure it out. You'll be notified okay? We'll work it out from there Another thing quick reminder to and we'll find some form to do if you can't oh yeah and hump on his feet Yeah, you'll still have we'll have a job. We'll be dual give you will give you work Yeah, walking wounded there's no such thing if you die We're gonna put you on a two-wheel dolly and use your for our organic sandbag as point man. I thought you understood that You can't do that. Yeah, we can actually. We're going to have to. We're going to be short people. This is how it works. So I'm figuring you'll be with us. One of the most important things here, again, with regard to training, is wet. As we just experienced a moment ago, we are going to, I think, see a mushy spring and a consistently wet summer if it keeps acting the way it is. Part of this has to do with the solar activity that we're talking about many times here on the air and the system doesn't talk about. But also again planetary alignments, there's a bunch of other math involved with this. This is nothing we haven't seen before. The only tough thing now is that some of the farmers are having a time getting into the field in lowland areas and we're in lowland. We have a lot of lowland down here. So, we'll see how that develops, but the winter wheat that was put in, it is phenomenal. Whoever put in winter wheat at the end of the season last year, it is kicking right now. Of course, so is our lawn grass, by the way, which is competing with triticales all over the planet for production. We don't really need more grass growth, but we do have it. We're stuck with it. The big thing again here too is home production, home food production, more home food production. And the cool thing is we're getting lots of water. Now we can purify water. We can always clean water up. We've got to have it in order to do that. So the neat thing is that sprouting is one of the biggest solutions, one of the best solutions that we have. with regard to some of the stuff that people are addressing shortage of food etc. If you don't have much, one great thing about sprouting is that all you need is water. If you have water you will be able to sprout. If you sprout you are able to, if you're doing sprouting, you're able to increase the food value of whatever you have by 800%. including the fact that most sprouting produces anywhere from four to six of the eight essential amino acids that you need, if not all of them, depending on what you're sprouting. You might recall, this is a subnote here, and it was kind of funny because you could go to the store and buy it. Grass sprouting was really big there for a while. You eat grass? Well, yes. As a matter of fact, you're reducing it, weren't they? Am I right or am I wrong? You know I'm right. And the grocery stores are selling it. So when you tell somebody that, and then they go, I guess what they do, they go in a brain fart. It's like, well, you can't do that. It's like, well, what do you mean? They've been selling it in the grocery stores. Sprouting, by the way, is a cyclic fad thing. It's a good idea. In fact, even now, you need to get into the practice of sprouting now, doing sprouting and understanding how to do it. Lentils are a really phenomenal and high end sprouting bean to use. It's a legume. Any beans, any kind of seed can be sprouted. So how do you use it? Well, you can use it with everything and anything that you're producing in the way of food. To be quite honest, the most common is still going to be soup. I was having a discussion about this with the humanitarian MREs. It's like, you know that it really dull. Yes, they are. They're designed to be as neutral as possible. But to be quite honest, as I've told you several times, most of this, especially the humanitarian ration, because it's pretty neutral, is that would go into soup. And then you take sprouts, anything else you've got, noodles, whatever you want to do. And soup is the way to stretch whatever food you've got. So just something is a heads up. And it's the most efficient way to get everything out of. You're going to be using fats. You're going to be using every type of meat that's available. You can throw pork, beef, chicken, turkey, wild game, whatever. Guys, the animal fats that you have, you're going to have to use them all. You're going to need them. Those calories, that storage is priceless. The animal did it for a reason. In reality, you do too. whatever baby fat you got once this thing kicks in. Which by the way, hint hint hint, anybody catch the rationing conversations the last two days? Rationing people, rationing. Remember what I said about this? Now, the problem is that some things that are the very first thing that they ration, they're already talking about, we're looking at petroleum products. If we have petroleum products, nobody is discussing the slinky scenario I mentioned in the last hour. What's the price of a gallon of gas? Dar, what's the price of a gallon of gas where you are right now? I cut it flat-footed and I know he probably muted up. Okay. Oh, 420, I'm coming to where you are. That's 80 cents cheaper than what we've been paying here for the last four or five days. But here's the thing. What's the price of a quart of oil? Now, this is the slinky effect I've been talking about. If you pay attention, the transient elements of the barrel of oil have gone up very quickly. But this is what happened back when gas jumped to $1 something a gallon years ago. And I pointed out to everybody, it's like buy a couple cases of whatever your favorite motor oil is. And everybody looked at me like, oh, why? I said, because it's eventually going to go up. And the cool thing about petroleum products, oil in particular, it doesn't go bad. There's no expiration date on oil. In fact, they tell you it's sat in the ground for however many years. Millions! Just sitting there staring at you. So if you have a particular oil, although again, I go no-name brand cheapest for the most is because right now that's still your best choice for a lot of what we're doing, but you can get a synthetic or conventional oil for in the no-name brands like say store brand category like for NAPA or for tractor supply or for pick your pick, whatever auto store or whatever chain store. Whatever it is, that's fine. If you see anything in a resale shop, grab it. I cleaned out two places, well, one place yesterday, with all of the oil products that he had on the shelf because they were a dollar an item. I normally would do that anyway, but right now I've got somebody that's got a really good source, they're clearing out a particular industrial complex. And I'm buying every quart of oil or petroleum product that they've got coming off the shop. I picked up a couple of cases of military grease, actually weapons grease, a dollar a can for a quart, each can is a quart in size, and it's not compromised, and it's not rusted, and it's not broken down. It's all original old inventory off the shelf. But oil right now, have you thought about that? Did you hear some limitation because oil prices doubled or went up by 40 cents? 40 percent, not 40 cents. By 40 percent because oil is averaging, hovering for the name brand around what? $6, $7 a quart. No name brand is running about 5.29 plus or minus a quart. If gas went up by a full dollar, that means it went up by 20 to 25 percent depending on where you are. If that's the case, did oil adjust its price on the shelf? You'll notice it didn't yet. Now it's not that it's not going to because if this continues, your oil prices are going to jack progressively. In fact, what's interesting is what we've talked about many times on this program is remember with a barrel of oil, where the oil companies make their money is in the high oils, not in the plastics, not in the gasoline, not in the kerosene, not even in the diesel. It's in the higher aviation and higher tech grade lubricants that are, you know, we're talking 50, 60 dollars a pint. We're talking major money, you know, for a particular lubricant, aviation lubricants especially, depending upon what the temperature range that the lubricant has to survive at and continue to operate at for extensive periods of time. And there's more than just, say, what you would call a crank case oil. We're talking a lot of other lubricants that are ensconced or encapsulated inside a sealed system. And they have to stay there. So they have to maintain whatever the viscosity level is in order for them to function at how many tens of thousands of RPM and in a sealed system and of course maybe at altitude. Well if they're aircraft at altitude beyond a shadow of a doubt that's where the big money is made and it's not just aviation there's military application etc. Many many other items that require special tech in order for them to function. But so far oil has not jacked so Consideration if you're no you know you've got a certain number of vehicles that you are going to maintain If you are my full me get ammo because it costs money and blah blah blah. Okay. Well, how about oil? And the reason I bring this up is maybe you can't do something in a certain direction because you're a significant other or in theory the argument is that it will hurt your budget, you know, fill in the blank for whatever reason, okay? At least if you explain that, hey, this has to do with us getting to and from work, going to see the grandkids, going to see the, you know, whoever, fill in the blank, whoever you're planning on visiting, the vehicle has to continue to roll down the road. And the sheer economics of having to be able to maintain the equipment we have, having that material in hand, already in the inventory, makes all the difference in the world between getting there and not being able to get there. Just that simple. So petroleum products, but especially oil, refined oils. We'll see because some places, you know, really the stores are no different from anybody else. I should say no different from the gas stations. They could start the arbitrary tickle meters like they have now where, you know, you drive by and one minute the gas is one price, all you do is hit a switch and the next minute the gas is another price. The same could be, it could easily be done on store shelves. And of course if they did have the cash flow society scam in place, that thing's going to be you won't even know when the prices have changed until you go to the register so to speak if they even allow that and you're going to go, oh my god, what the hell just happened? I just read the price back there on the shelf and it said blah blah blah. and they're going to tell you yes it was blah blah blah but now it's blase splee and by the way add oh my god look at the price of that to the sticker because that's the situation you're going to be in so again petroleum oil and lubricant products PLO P-O-L versus the Palestinian Liberation Organization. P-O-L is something that should be a high priority if you're a coordinator with your team and you're trying to prepare better. Once it's on the shelf, and this is why looking for distress, merchandise sites, estate sales, estate sales, the oil's going up for nothing. It's not it's the average price I think if I were to guesstimate would be about 80 cents a quart for oil no matter what what type I've never paid more than that and I have paid a dollar on occasion like I just said this last weekend But it's because some of the stuff that I got Wasn't just regular petroleum oil and lubricant products a little more specialized which is cool. I like that so Again, the other consideration here is next will be obviously roll up with food and shipping. And shipping is going to get bit in the ass real fast because this is a dollar jump. At least that's what we've had here in most of the countries in the same boat. Go ahead, call her, jump in there. Well, where I am, gas I think is $3.99 a gallon and oil is $10 a quart average. Outrageous. Well, that's right. Well, you have to shop around. I guarantee you probably could find a better price. I'll tell you, weirdly enough, tractor supply. Look, you have a tractor supply in your area? Yes. Okay, go into their oil department. Notice they have their own carrier flag brand. Their stores are all exactly the same, so it'll be on towards almost to an end cap towards the inside of the store, back where they have the tires. You'll find if you look down, it's kind of not the first thing you look at, but if you look down, it's about $3 cheaper per quart, no matter where you're going with the country. Tractor supply. I'm serious. I've been buying a lot of oil. We've been bringing as much stuff. I still have a dozen projects here that are half, a little bit here, a little dot there, but we've been going through both the cleaning solvents and oils and lubricants because we're switching everything out and cleaning everything up right now. before things go to hell in hand cart. And everybody, you all need to be thinking the same way. If you haven't been putting off an oil change, there's two things about your vehicles we have to absolutely be religious about and you need to be prepared for it if you're gonna run the long haul. You know, if you're gonna play Mad Max, then you have to have a real Mad Max storyline. Number one, pay for good tires. Get decent tires. Save the old tires. You will never have enough tires. I guarantee what they're not talking about is they are going to very quickly ration tires. It's another way to keep you from driving. Now tires don't pop and blow and fail like they used to in my dad's age because he would tell you all the stories of back in the day. But it still comes down to if there aren't any more, you aren't going anywhere. So the big thing, and not only that but it's safety. And I can't emphasize that enough. Spend the money on tires. They don't have to be pretty, they don't have to be the biggest name brand, but you need to be putting something on there rather than skins. Now you save the skins because if somebody goes pop, pop, boom, boom in your direction, they put a bullet through a tire, you want another couple of rims and you want to be ready to change it out quick, get you out of the situation. Well first, get out of the situation, return fire, continue to move even with a damaged vehicle. Get out of the area of contact. Then, assess the problem, replace the parts or repair as needed, then unask the AO and proceed to wherever the hell you thought you were going to go or get back to where you came from. But changing out oil to keep what you've got that you own is critical and everybody listening, all of you listening, the big issue here is going to be that that is the second largest purchase you make. And most everybody does know this, but they're not wrapping their brains around this the way your grandpa and your dad and mom had to because the economy was tight years ago. Well, it was just common sense because you didn't waste resources. You didn't waste money. But tires for safety, because the last thing we need to do is hear about you wrapping yourself around something because you couldn't control the vehicle or there was a failure. Everything runs on those tires. Okay, number one. Number two, brakes. I'll tell you right now, I've got a truck down for it. I could run it, but I'm not going to because I don't want to damage it anymore. But I've got a brake set I've got to do right now. I mean now. And I always have a complete set of brakes for each vehicle on the shelf, front and rear. And I highly recommend you do the same thing. It does not have to be the most expensive. Just have them on the shelf. It's like spark plugs. Okay, I have a complete set of spark plugs and I carry those with every vehicle that we have. The Suburbans, Tahos, 2500 Chevys, 1500 Chevys, doesn't make any difference. The Ford vans, the Dodge, we have some Dodge vans in the fleet that are the, you know, what is it, the little, what, I think that's a 1500 also. See, the smaller of the two, it's not a minivan, it's just a smaller work service van. In each case I've got complete distributor wires and plugs. Go ahead, jump in there. So there's a guy up in Carsonville here in the Thumb. He calls the swap shop quite often. I told him to email you before. You probably didn't see it and you may not have but he's got a shit load of old Dodge parts. like motors and transmissions and and he's got a van right now that he wants to part out it's a two it's a three-quarter ton I'm pretty sure it's older but he said the motor it's a Magnum and the motor and trans are he said in good condition you know they run and I think he's selling it for like seven or eight hundred bucks I don't know if you're interested in that, but I know he's got a lot of old Dodge parts, old Dodge rams, old Dodge ram chargers, you know all that stuff. What is the interesting thing is typically that that little Magnum engine, that's one of the built like a brick doghouse engines in the system. We've had, I'd say a dozen of those. And when I say had, I mean we didn't get rid of them. Somebody else has them because we've had them and somebody else wanted the vehicle because it was tired. But we've got some of those that have 315,000 on the motor. 315, 350 is no big deal with those little Magnum engines. But they're not little, they're actually very dynamic power pack. They work. The big thing again with everything we've got A couple tricks with regard to offensive driving. Number one, do your brake lines. I know that sounds like a lot of work, yes it is a lot of work, but once it's done it's done. Recommendation, go to stainless. Now there are some really nice, coated, new brake lines that are out there now. But example, the Dodge Dakota has got that Magnum engine I just mentioned. I spent half a day because I had to fight all the fixtures, but I pulled all the fixtures off, buffed everything back up, cleaned everything up. Didn't have to replace any of the primary connector points. In fact, a lot of time was under new. Again, also resurfaced, refinished them. But it's the idea that when I was done, that's good for the life of the vehicle. I mean, it's still running. The vehicle I'm talking about is still in service right now with one of our allies. And it works just as well today as it did when it was first put into service, to be quite honest, except it don't look pretty. Because it's that Dakota that was in the tornado at the house here. But it works. It works just fine. So again, For everybody out there, whatever you got, mechanical is the issue. Pretty is irrelevant. In fact, ugly is good camouflage, just put it that way. Rust is not your first choice, but if it doesn't have a pretty paint job, it looks like it's less likely you're worth stealing from. Let's just put it that way. It's part of the many ways that you blend in with the population when the time comes. And it's been recommended by a lot of people. Born of the gray guy, the gray man idea. That doesn't mean you don't have resources. That doesn't mean you don't know how to use them, but you just don't draw a whole lot of attention That's the that's the plan. Let's not draw attention Another thing real quick is run flat material. You've got all kinds of different materials you can add to the tires The argument with the offensive driving philosophy is that you add it in advance and and it creates basically a self-sealing tire to a degree. You blow a big enough chunk out, nothing's going to hold the air in. But one of the other recommendations for years is intertubing a tubeless tire. And the reason for that is that, again, you have yet another layer of protection for self-sealing. People go so far, if you want to talk about really redundant, is putting run flat inside the tube tire inside the tubeless tire and then blowing it up and having it already active in the tire itself inside the inner tube. This creates self-sealing tires. You've got three layers, well two tiers of rubber material, polymer, and then you've got the sealing material already on board inside the tire. It's a trick that works. We do it with some of our tactical armored updos and a-haves. We've done that years ago. Tires really don't go anywhere. We're not running them non-stop. They have to be moved. You've got to be able to move this stuff, people. You can't just let it sit. But when we do, we know that it's pretty well as protected as it possibly could be under the conditions. Just heads up, create ideas, not just pissing them on about the problems. Everybody's doing the, they're gonna take our rights! No, they're not, I'm gonna kill the son of a bitch. What are you talking about? They're gonna blah blah blah, they're gonna blah blah blah and die. How's that sound? I think that's what they need. If you're telling me that we have some sorry SOB that thinks they're gonna do fill in the blank, whatever you just screamed about, oh my god, then we're going to get rid of them. See how that works? They're going to be gone and anybody who supports them, you know, they step up and decide they want to, you know, piss on us in the process, they're gone too. That's just how it's going to work and then it better. I mean, we don't have any opportunity here for, you know, let's say, we'll give them a little bit of an opportunity to maybe correct their way. No, they picked the direction already. They're done. They're finished. Bad choice. Bad choice of directions. Made big mistake. Now, unfortunately, you're in the wrong camp and it's not a heavy camper situation. But there's no fixing it. With regard to what we're facing here, I think that the only thing is the weapons issue. And I'll tell you what we're going to do before we go any farther, and jog my own memory. Again, with the vehicles, tires, tires, and more tires. Batteries, you can armor, by the way. We'll talk about that maybe at the 8 o'clock hour because this is some stuff that we haven't really discussed extensively. But certain key components need to be better protected. You can actually, for a minimal amount of cost, and without adding extreme weight to the vehicle, armor your vehicle up quite extensively. Not difficult to do at all. And critical systems defense, you basically treat it like you do an aircraft. Aircraft are not armored. overall, but they are armored. Certain components that are critical to you surviving, short of, of course, you can't protect everything necessarily on the motor, but certain aircraft actually are dynamically protected by an extensive amount of graphite type Kevlar-based materials to minimize weight, but maximize shrapnel reduction and you know penetrating material disruption Block things from you know getting to the soft chewy stuff, which is you in the middle of that Flying bathtub that they got around you same is true with your with your with your vehicle You can build up the exact same way for the exact same purpose and it's not that outrageously expensive And it's also not again. You're not going to add excessive weight Weight is always the issue Let's see before we go. Oh, we got enough time. I'll tell you what, Ed, if we have enough time, let's see if we can fit in the latest guns and gadgets. I hope it's less than 18 minutes long. It should be. It shouldn't be that long. But for everybody out there, guns and gadgets, and I'm going to address something that I've seen a whole lot of propaganda on too, having to do with Batfaggots, the ATF, It's why it tells me that they know that they're, you know, they're listening to everything. They are not happy with the situation, so they're trying to create the appearance that they're backing off. They're not backing off. These bastards are as wicked and evil as the day is long. The people who are running Washington, D.C. are as wicked and evil as the day is long. They are going to continue to be wicked and evil. Let's talk about the machine gun that banned portion of the National Firearms Act and how the Fifth Circuit just dropped a bombshell. What if I told you the federal judges are now openly saying that the federal machine gun ban may not be constitutional? And not quietly either, not behind closed doors. We're talking about multiple federal appellate judges on the record saying the government may have gone too far, but then still refusing to fix it. Yes, this is a big one. Hey everybody, welcome back to Guns and Gadgets, your premier source for Second Amendment news, constitutional analysis, and real talk about what's actually happening behind the scenes. If you care about our rights, if you want the truth, not spin. Then make sure you hit the subscribe button right now and join this growing freedom family because this channel exists to keep you informed and ready. So here's the situation. A case out of the Fifth Circuit, which is United States v. Jamie on Wilson, just had a major development. The court was asked to re-hear the case en banc, meaning the full court would reconsider whether the Federal Machine Gun ban, 18 U.S.C. § 922-0, Oscar, is constitutional or not. And here's the result. The court refused to hear the case. That's the headline. But that's not the story. Because what happened inside that decision is where things get explosive. Let me break this down for you in plain English so that you get it. The judges voted. Seven judges wanted to re-hear the case. Ten judges said no. So it failed. But here's the kicker. A large chunk of this court, the Fifth Circuit, is basically saying, yep, our precedent may be wrong. and let that sink in. While we're talking about firearms, if you carry a firearm for self-defense of yourself or others, the biggest threat you face might not be from a criminal, but from the actual government coming after you for defending yourself. That's why you need attorneys on retainer in your corner. And not only does AOR have new benefits for members, there is also an opportunity to save more on your sign-up as well. First, as long as there's an underlying act of self-defense. Should you be charged with something like possession of a high capacity magazine or a non-roster firearm or possession in a gun-free zone, well then those regulatory crimes would now be covered under the new pro bono hero benefit that AOR recently launched. And over the past few years they've expanded the benefits of the Attorneys on Retainer program to include bail bond coverage, expert witness coverage, investigator coverage, scene cleanup, and much, much more. And these new benefits, along with their ability as a law firm to avoid all the typical insurance-related exclusions involving self-defense incidents, helped solidify AOR as the best self-defense program in the self-defense industry. And attorneys are retainers, the only national law firm, the only one that focuses exclusively on self-defense cases. That's all they take. When you join AOR, you get that law firm in your corner, no matter where you are in this country. And this is the best team assembled, the best, most aggressive freedom attorneys in the country. And they are who I have chosen to pay for my own coverage, my wife's coverage, to fight for our freedom. God forbid, I have to defend my life or someone else's. And right now, if you use code GNG at the link down below or the QR code floating above one of my shoulders, you will save $50 on your individual sign-up fee and $25 off of your family plan sign-up fee. And that increased savings opportunity is only active through July 31st of 2026 in celebration of America 250. So good on them. And so get on the team and save even more than before. Thanks to AOR for believing in what Guns and Yages does. Now back to the judges here in the fifth. Judge Don Willett is one of the most respected constitutional minds on that bench. He wrote separately in the decision here and he doesn't hold back. He explains something critical. The Constitution was designed with both enumerated powers, what the government can do, and enumerated rights, what the government cannot touch. He calls it a belt and suspenders constitution, meaning even if one fails, the other should protect you. But then he says something stunning. In this case, both protections failed. Why? Because of prior court decisions. Number one was the Commerce Clause expansion. The court previously said Congress can regulate simple possession of a machine gun under interstate commerce. Two, Second Amendment narrowing. The court also said machine guns are dangerous and unusual and therefore not protected. Now, this is where it gets interesting. Judge Willett basically questions that entire logic. He pointed out that there are millions of registered machine guns in the United States. So he asks, How can something be unusual if millions of them exist? And that goes directly against the framework from District of Columbia v. Heller, which says weapons in common use are protected. So if judges think this is flawed, then why didn't they fix it? Well, the answer is simple. Procedure. Judge Willett says that the defendant didn't properly raise certain arguments. and the challenge was structured incorrectly, and legally this wasn't the right vehicle to fix the issue. In other words, the court is saying, we might agree, but we're not touching it here. Now, on to enter Judge James Hoe. And he goes straight at it. Judge Hoe says, courts must follow history, not fear. He even warns against something that he calls Hoplophobia, which is the real definition of that is fear of weapons. And he says he... This powder does three things that they will charge you $10,000 for, but the FDA approved it. So there's... Calls them out for hoplophobia, fear of weapons driving legal decisions. And then he reminds everybody that at the founding, Americans were required to own arms. The right wasn't optional, it was expected. And Ho also, Judge Ho also makes it crystal clear. The Founders didn't fear firearms, they trusted citizens with them. And the Second Amendment wasn't written for hunting, it was written for power, for defense, for liberty. And here's where this becomes a massive story. Judge Ho and others are essentially saying the current precedent might be unconstitutional. And another judge, Oldham, Judge Oldham, takes it even further. He says there is no historical tradition of banning entire classes of arms, which is exactly what the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association versus Bruin requires. History and tradition, not modern policy preferences. So let me translate all of this into reality for you. Federal judges are openly questioning the machine gun ban. Their signaling current precedent might be wrong. and they're inviting a future case to challenge it properly. This is how major constitutional shifts happen. This is how the National Firearms Act dies. It won't be overnight. It will be step by step, signal by signal. And this decision is basically a road map. It tells attorneys, bring us a better case. Raise the Commerce Clause issue properly. structure the Second Amendment claim correctly and build the historical record. And when that happens, not if, when that happens, the issue is coming back. So don't let the headline fool you. This wasn't a peer loss. This was a warning shot. This was a road map given by a major court in this country. It's a signal from inside the judiciary that something big is brewing. And when the right case comes along, the federal machine gun ban could be on the chopping block. If you want to stay ahead of this because this will evolve, make sure that you subscribe to Guns and Gadgets, share this video, drop a comment down below, do you think that the courts will eventually strike this down? I really want to hear your opinion on this. I think the judges just told Major 2A attorneys how to get it done how they want it to come to them so that they can tee it up and knock it out of the park I also want to say thank you for all of the years of supporting guns and gadgets YouTube has gone on the attack on the channel It's hemorrhaging statistics, which I'm not here for statistics, but I do ask you to Come to the channel directly, youtube.com slash actgunscad. Just type that right into your browser. Don't go to YouTube and expect for them to show you what videos I put out every day. They don't want that information out. So come to it directly and all my stuff will be under the videos tab. And again, thank you for supporting this channel and supporting my company, Blackout Coffee, blackoutcoffee.com slash gng. Because without you, part of this team, the team is not the same. Have a great day, stay armed, stay safe, and stay free. I'll see you in the next one. Take care. And we are back. Guns and gadgets. And we still got plenty of time to talk about this. Here's the problem. We already have had the NFA addressed to a degree. Well, to a degree. The problem is, in each case, whenever this moves forward, as I've pointed out many times, I will again, the courts The first mission is to protect the business. The business of the court is to make money. Business money. They're in business. They did overturn the short rifle ban, but they didn't. Oh, wait a minute. No, the only thing that they did, and this is right out of Atlas Shrugged, what Anne Rand explained in Atlas Shrugged about politics, is, well, we'll roll it back so that there's no tax, but you have to do the dirty deed and register everything anyway. Well, that's rather fascinating, but why do we have to do it at all then? Well, they can't throw it out. If they throw it out, then they're responsible for making whole Every person who was ever affected by this law, it was illegitimate to begin with. They knew it was, but they liked that it was illegitimate. They liked the illegitimacy that they wrapped their brains around, and they went through with the dirty deed, and now we have this thing in place. But if they were to cut it off, in other words, well, we're just going to get rid of it. Well, in other words, it was wrong the whole time, yes. Well, that means that every person who has been charged, who is still alive, and who was affected by this would have to be made whole. Now, one of the problems, one of the issues with regard to this Sovietization has taken place. The courts haven't changed. Have they? We still have the Admiralty Court in place. So the other issue is when they have to come forward to actually deal with this problem, They have to conform to the commerce activity, no matter how hard they claim they're not, because that's the nature of the Admiralty Court. It is a profit-caring mechanism. It is designed for the purpose of raiding and pillaging and stealing stuff from people, because the Admiralty Court's job is to divvy up what you have. You didn't realize this and that's why everybody is suing everybody. This is why the state of Michigan is suing the federal government. This is why the federal government is suing. Okay, I want you to go back. I want you to go back through history and take a look at the founders and see if you saw this type. Look to see if you can see any of this type of conversational base in any of the interactions between the state and the Fed. that didn't exist in this form because we were under the common law, which we should be right now. If we were under the common law, first of all, they couldn't get away with any of this crap and they know it. Well, again, that was why they targeted it, why the Jews targeted it, because, oh God, Mark, you're mentioning the Jewish mob again. Yes, because it was the Zionists who pushed this garbage to get us to where we are with this failed situation for the purpose of them disarming the population to steal our stuff. and the FBI and other commerce agencies. Since you did acknowledge, you'll mention the commerce clause here. Well, this doesn't apply. They argued that originally when this came about, by the way, with regard to the Commerce Clause, that it was totally disassociated. Remember, as I've said, the Gun Control Act of 1933-34, well, let's go this way, the War Powers Act, the Gun Control Act of 1933-34, and the Gold Act, the Confiscation of Gold. were all illegitimate actions, especially under the common law. So we have a total corruption of the base of law as it had originally been established per the nation. So what did they do to correct their course? Well, they hadn't gotten the Admiralty Court in, so the Buck Act of 1938 is what effects the destruction of any place to go for relief. You will not get relief in the Admiralty Court, the present courts you have, and all these horrors know it. There can't be, in fact by their own rules of their own Lodge Buddy operation they've set up, they cannot violate the mechanism that they've put into play. They have to leave it in place. They are sworn to protect the lodge business, the corporate business, the Admiralty's business, the Law of DC operating and stretched across the American continent illegitimately. And of course it comes from the District of Criminals. It comes from those bastards in, that's right, DC. And they know what I'm talking about, they know fully about. They understand there's no doubt, there's no confusion, they understand completely what it is that I'm talking about. They know full well the nature of the beast. So the big issue here again is, well, yep, it was wrong, but how can you fix it? The problem is it can't be fixed because of what transpires. They can't delve into that can of worms. without it hurting the business. And for that reason, they will constantly play mumbly peg and bacillate and agonize and gnash of teeth and red of hair. There will be lots of confusion and you'll see the usual jigsaw, see sawing back and forth, you know, from one court to the next to buy time. And even after they do confirm that it's a violation, what will be the remedy? The remedy will not be to drop it. The remedy always has to allow for a fingernail scratching of the activity to survive because otherwise all the booty that they've collected, all the time that they've stolen, all the resources that they've pilfered have to come back to the people they stole them from. This is true of every aspect of the criminal action of the piracy of America, which we call the War Powers Act, which is the extension of the 1918 Trading with the Enemy Act in which the Corporation of the United States under Jewish control declared war on the Goy, the American people, as property of the state to be bartered, sold, traded, or exchanged at the discretion of the state. Anyway, go ahead and call her. Jump in there. We've got just a minute. Right, exactly. All the rest of the time. Again, there is something brewing. Right now, Canada, people go, oh, they're going to back off in Canada. Are they? Canada, do you trust them to back off? Every time I've heard this bullshit, they're going to back off. They figure they're going to get everybody to go to sleep, and then they turn right around, and they bite everybody in the ass. And everybody goes, oh, I didn't expect that. Oh my goodness, they're meaner than we thought they'd be. No, they're not meaner than we thought they'd be. They did exactly what we warned you they'd do. And they're in motion. Here's the problem. You know what's really bizarre? The Iranian government and the Iranian people have the same glasses on in They Live that we in America have in the They Live movies. There's nothing they can do to fool us. They have to either make the move, do whatever you think you're going to do, watch and see what happens. That's the part that they understand. Now everybody's looking straight at them. You see them from the pasty-face, vampiric creatures that they are. They have no place to go. But they also affect that you know vampires cannot be defined vampires they have to attack us So it's not an if it's simply a when and the one is closer than anybody and everybody wants to acknowledge for obvious reasons It's an uncomfortable fact Very uncomfortable. For us? Eh, okay. We expected it. Nothing new. All we need to do is make sure we keep everything sunny on a stack, and rack, cocked, and locked, and when the time comes, we can live in hell out of every last one of them and let none of them escape. That's the attitude everybody better have. We let none of them escape. There won't be any hiding in their bunkers. There won't be going any place where they can stay out of sight and fool everybody and come up later. Eh, that's not gonna happen. We're getting out of the way though, we gotta fool everybody by leaving. No actually everybody, the top of the own. God bless our Republic. Yes, the new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. And we are on the march, both day and night. Keep them to the flat, leave them down hard, and don't ever let them escape, people. Once you've got them by the throat, You mop the floor with them, you beat them down so hard they'll wish you got them. They never showed up and you don't stop. Oh, they're gonna take for mercy! You came to my place to bother me. I don't think I'm gonna let you get away. I think we're just gonna keep you from the rest of the game. And by the way, pull down to my bullets. Oh, bang! And more bullets. Bang, bang! Anyways, get out of here for now. Ed taking over, more LTR coming up. It's a little rainly out there on and off, so be careful on the road towards the twilight here, guys, evening, because it's going to be interesting. Again, also, watch for high winds and we'll have to be surprised we've got some tornado activity here in Michigan. God bless. Bye-bye. And remember, when they come to the gold, give them the lead. When they come to the gun, Give them the bullets first and when they come for the poppers don't give them your pennies and God help us all Start a business or to build a place for one on land that you believe you own You children must attend to school that the current news and a regulated press do not owe to your money is no government control Those who do you harm so they could burn down church 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, 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 and faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish to choke fear? Both sons of the Republic arise. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republican each God given right. Pray to God, freedom brings. I awoke he vanished in the mist for when his words were true. But we have ourselves to blame, for even now as tyrants trampled each God given right. We only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. He stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer? He called out from the grave. evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the third hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Kurnkey, one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, west, south, north, and northeast. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on the satellite. I want to say hi to all of our merchant marine and inland operators who are listening and then rebroadcasting, analog and digital satellite. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies inside and outside these United States. And it is Monday. It's the end of Monday for the Intel report. Monday's got a few more hours left. Plenty of time for the government and the Mossad to kill Americans in American soil, try to create a war conflict out of desperation because the Dirty Bird turds are trying to do what they're trying to do. So far, well, it's just been an average Monday. It is the 4th of May. It is the 2026 Old Earth Calendar. 2026, Battle for the Republic Book 3, A Dark Anniversary. And it has been a very busy week and it's only Monday. Yeah, it has been actually. Can't complain. We do have manuals out and in motion to our allies, a couple of different orders that came in over the weekend because of our visitors from outside of state, Iowa for instance. We are sending out the requested packets so pay attention, watch your mailbox, a bunch of other stuff is going out at the same time. But again, we wanted to expedite this. These will go along with your rifle marksmanship courses. We have the entire class instruction package for BASIC. And in addition to that, we do have a bunch of other new training manuals, the Anti-Armor 1 and Anti-Armor 2. Those are of course becoming, well, popular because they're new and are definitely going to be, I think, in demand beyond available production for a while. Now we're filling up orders for the Michigan Militia at large, Ohio Militia, got a bunch of stuff going out to Iowa with the newest, latest wave, the Wolverine Militia Corps, Michigan Militia at large, I think I mentioned them, and then Colonial Marine Militia of course all over the place. the training manuals slash instructional tutorials that we're sending out. Copy and share, copy and share, copy and share. We expect you to, okay? Just that simple. We expect you to. In fact, we hope you'll do that a lot. Let's see, what else do we have here? Oh, during the 2R block, a couple things that I mentioned I want everybody to understand. With regard to vehicle operations, remember, first rule of offensive driving, you are a fish, you are a shark. Sharks don't ever stop swimming. If you're in offensive driving to protect yourself, you never stop moving. You never stop moving. No matter what, the vehicle's damage doesn't make any difference. Move through and out of the kill zone. Move through and out of the kill zone. That's the most important first step. The second is mobility if it looks like the kill zone is mobile. In other words, the bad guys were prepared in more than one way to try and do you bodily harm, which is typically the case when you're in motor transport situations. So this is where you have to think ahead. Basic maintenance on the vehicles. There's a whole bunch of neat tricks that we've brought up before in the past. We're probably going to take, I think, might take either part of Wednesday or Thursday to go down a short checklist. Again, this is basic stuff that we've all learned from experience, but it's also you can't get there from here without doing it yourself. There's going to be any maintenance guy doing the work. If you have something damaged, you've got to fix it. It's just that simple. You're going to be the one doing that. And for that reason, I suggest a couple things here. You might have some odds and ends tools laying around that you're not going to cry too much about. If you see any of these multi-head wrenches or dog bone type wrenches or whatever, I highly recommend you collect them and put them into your vehicle maintenance cache. Best example, you've got these universal, they're usually two ends to them. One's a little bigger, one's a little smaller, but they cover a wide range of standard hex bolt or hex nut type configurations. They're designed so they slide. They're kind of like a circular, a demi-O with a flat space. They pivot around the end shaft and it creates different dimensions for being able to bite different sized nuts and bolts. I recommend that you put those into your utility kit, not because they're the best tool in the box, but they are awfully handy for tight places where you need to be able to repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat because you have to slowly work a nut or a bolt off something. They are a little easier because they are usually spring loaded so when they are not set with tension by you pulling and twerking on them, they go back to zero which makes it a lot easier to slide back to the quarter position or half a position if you are lucky on the wrench and be able to pull it through again and repeat, repeat, repeat. Not fast, but it is faster. Again, it's not a socket wrench, it's not a socket system, but it's awfully handy, especially when there's a lot of things that can be up in tight spaces. Yes, we do have wrenches for that too, but those universal wrenches, once you break it free, especially if you have something that you have, it's time-sensitive to get something done fast. One person is using that universal tool so that they can work off whatever it is you've broken free as you move on to the next bolt. And if you have more than one on board, then well, many hands make for light work. It's a lot easier when other people are pitching in. Yes, I know you can have drill guns, you've got battery powered, you can have them work off of the primary motor. We do that all the time. A little trick I'll mention in a second here. But the big thing is you can't share a tool. So a few extra universal tools on board that serve that purpose in addition to a regular wrench set, take or pick whatever is required for the vehicle that you're running. It's a really good idea that you have that all squared away and in place now rather than waiting till later. I got a couple of really cool distressed places that we can stop at distressed stores where they have bins, bins a foot deep of sockets and a bin of foot-deep full of wrenches and I constantly cherry pick as they dump more into the pile and they're all they can either be well foreign or name brand American I don't care if it fits you know fits my purpose or it's my need because again if I get it for a little of nothing to like you know one step away from free cheap Then I can afford to have a whole lot more of the stuff laying around sometimes it's going to be a one-time use sometimes it may be in use extensively and repeat over and over again, so a basic field mechanics kit is something you want to put together with some Corner cutters is the best way to explain it another thing is make sure that in your kits you have additional Schrader valves a little Schrader valve tire kit you need that and I just had one, didn't even realize it, using the trailers outside, smaller trailers. I rammed into something and I miscalculated it on. I didn't feel it, I didn't see it, but I crushed the valve intake. I was able to straighten it out, but it also damaged the Schrader valve, the actual unit inside. All I have to do is torque that out. replace it with another one. They're very cheap, very affordable, but if they're not there, your tire, no kicky, no washy again. Tire run flat with no air. So again, I had to replace two little tiny parts. Fortunately, I've got a kit in every vehicle for that, all of our vehicles, no matter which one it is. Now the other thing is, and a sidebar, well this is not super important, we're talking about my new tie. Make sure that you put a cap on every stem you do have to protect the threads and to protect from falling and junk and dirt from getting into that little valve I just described. It's tough enough to get, you know, after you extract it even when it's covered. because sometimes they're persnickety, but if it gets a lot of salt, oxidation, and gunky dust ages sand in it, and what I mean by dust ages is kind of like, we have soil here, when it's wet, it's grease. When it's dry, it's like cement. And when it's wet, it gets into it, works through everything because it's micro fine on the edge of clay. And because of that you're going to have all kinds of issues. So cover with caps, with hat wheel, everything you can. If it's threaded stock and you can seal it. You've got either caps or retainers or screw caps for sealing things. Try to have spares around. Watch for junkers. Stuff at yard sales again. That's where I get 99% of my spares because somebody else bought a ton of them. And don't forget, T-Move for all these little stupid things. They're a keep, keep, keep. They don't have to be fancy, but they work just fine. And again, because everybody always tells me, say, if they work, they go to this big list. They're not made of money. I understand that. Neither am I. Do you think that I go and spend top dollar? Certain things I do. Very few, but certain things. Others? No. I've tested this Russian as an example is I'm wearing a pair of those $10 Bellevue Bellville boots that boots I'll get it right that I told you all about what three years ago after we came off the Corona beer by risk and there was a lot of inventory piled up now I this is the first pair of boots I took out of the box of these things and I bought the company out really I bought all the boots up that fit me and I have beat to death these boots and considering they were $10 Garrison boots These guys, they're as good as, they're basically as light as a jungle boot, but would normally be a little heavier if they were the factory field boot. But I've taken them into the field many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many times. And it's the best $10. I've spent a long time, as I've said several times, on the air. But I test these things to destruction. And I do the same with a lot of the other items we're talking about when we talk about Team Woo or whatever. Okay, let's see if this holds up or does it really work? And you can tell real quick out of the box. But it is something that, again, we try to do so you don't have to. And if we do have something that is an issue, we'll let you know. If it's not, or it looks like it's a success, we'll also let you know about that more importantly than anything else. The failures, yeah, we'll let you know so you don't worry. and waste money if at all possible. Although again, having a fair is better than none. Go ahead, callers, I've been there. What do we have? Paul, I wanted to know something. I saw on T-MOO, hey, riding lawnmower for less than $100. Should I believe that? Oh, I'm sure it's less than $100. I don't know if you could ride it. I don't know. The larger items, I'll tell you what, here's the way to do that. If you want to evaluate something from Teemu that's bigger like that. If you go over to YouTube and search for the model basically that you're watching, you're looking at, quite a few people have done videos for entertainment purposes but also kind of critique something. And most of the items that are the bigger ticket items like that from Teemu have been put through the ringer. So if you want to see how did it hold up, you know, is it serviceable enough to at least get away with for small jobs maybe? Then that's your best bet. Now you can also do a search with Google for the same machine, punch in the information you have. and watch to see what comes up in the way of story lines because there'll be videos, there'll be information, and they're like basically where you were thinking about buying it from, et cetera. That's not gonna help much. But other research done by other people, typically they've made it public. And so at least you get a feel for a well doesn't do what it's supposed to do. Now, for $100, I can get a cheap, well a little more than $100, but I can get a relatively cheap baseline lawn mower, push lawn mowers, which you were talking about, I hope, not a riding mower. But a push mower, yeah, push mower for, wait a minute, did you say riding? Yes, I did. For $100, wow, I'd have to look at it just to see what they did. I have seen some very unique signs. Okay, well, I'm just saying anything like that body armor is the same way I know a lot of people have poo-pooed body armor that they've seen on Teamu or any of the China support pages because there is a bunch of companies that make body armor in China It works now to what degree I'll go ahead we got in there go ahead. Yeah me Yeah, remember Kim is going through some problems right now with the tariffs thing a lot of stuff It could be hit or miss. It could be real. It could be fake. But they've got a closeout sale going on right now where they're trying to clear out stuff in their ports. It might actually be a riding lawn mower. Like Dad said, look at the model number, but it's possible. See if there is a video and always read the reviews. Read the negative reviews. They are as important as the positive reviews. They might mention scale, fuel tank size, things that are missing. condition that the thing was delivered to you in and that's not necessarily a mistake. They're just trying to clear the warehouse out. They're even sending out junk that's been crushed in the warehouse. Again, it's going to be a mix. When you said riding for $100, there are some really interesting designs that really mimicked stuff that America did back in the 50s and 60s. They're modular pieces. I've got a rototiller that's like that. It's minimalist. It's fairly big, but it's minimalist, and it was all designed around stamping, sheet metal stamping. Of course, it was American foraging, you know, forged stamping. So I would say quality of the steel, even if it was something lesser from, say, Japan, was decent. American-made. fly mower, which is a hovercraft slash mower, which really, if you look at the thing, it looks like you got a wheelbarrow that's been turned upside down with a motor put on it. And they actually made those in the 1960s, or I wanna say 1960s or 1950s. You can find a guy who does repair work on them, and he was doing a comparison to the Teemu one and the ones that he's fixed. They are pretty good but they don't cover as well as the older ones. It's all on the blade because it literally is a truck blade. It doesn't have a fast enough speed. It covers up like maybe an inch and you don't have wheels. You just float it over the grass while you cut it. This continued because a lot of people had accidents with them because no wheels, no safety thing on it at all to prevent it from going over animals, toes, other things. Right, it was a Scandinavian lawnmower tag. Yeah, only in this case Chinese lawnmower tag. Boo-boo'd. Well again there are I've watched some of the videos on the little trucks and stuff that they're offering most of that is through Alibaba, but it's still Chinese. In the little lawn mowers the question is size of the motor. Not little snappers of such that were very tiny. We were riding lawn mowers. 10 horsepower rear end. Probably enough to get it done. It's whether or not it's going to be enough to drag you around along with the mower. That's the only consideration. But again, it's like anything else. We might experiment with that for $100 and not out much. And then if you like it, well, let people know. If you don't like it, especially let people know. That's how we look at it. That's why we do little research like that all the time. Like I said, well, we'll test something. Okay, it's cheap. Does it work? Maybe it doesn't work. Let's find out. If it's worth it for you to try to get a hold of it and try it out right now, it would be a good idea because they're not sure if they're going to be able to continue business after they're done with this sale. They might be closing up shop. Kimu might be a thing of the past. You hear that? So again, ideas. I don't know about any returns, but definitely you probably can get it outbound. It would be interesting to see how things do fold up. Like I said during the two hour block, I'll repeat this again. The money, the devaluation of the currency is going to the extreme. The oil cost itself, with the increase in what they're deciding they can charge us and how much they can rape us over the coals, they are going to do just exactly that. And that's going to ripple through to transportation and materials. In our state here, gas went up by a dollar from where it was a week and a quarter ago, about eight days ago. It went up by a full dollar. We had a 25-cent jump, then we had a 30-cent jump, then we had another 40-some-cent jump. The only thing that's happened is that one or two stations, it's backed off a cup because we were hovering at the $4.99 mark and then some places went over that and then they backed off real quick and I know why because they could see that the soda pop sales were down Gas station gas was down everything I know they're watching the numbers very very very closely because they're pissing off the population I think they know that too and they realize that's not a happy camper situation They can go south real quick and they're helping to make it happen So mark again go ahead My daughter bought a chicken coop from Teemu about two weeks ago and it was missing a bunch of stuff and she called and they gave her money back and she still got the parts. Right. They usually say keep it. It's not worth it to ship it back. Exactly. Right. Hey, Mars, what about who's got the best deal on a 410 pistol? You know? Oh, right now there's a couple of different revolvers out there that are interesting. Basically, they're the dirty hairies of the 410 revolver world. It depends, are you looking for a pistol or are you looking for a little 410? Yeah, a little 410 handgun revolver. Well, the thing is catching somebody on a deal because basically all of them, kind of like back when the 44 magnums were out there, before the 44 Model 29 became a classic everybody had for a little while there are 44 out coming out the Comanche was out there etc so it was a matter of flavor preference although the the star and the llamas were cheaper they weren't that much cheaper but they were pretty well built guns so it's the same thing with these four tens you've got the judge and a couple others out there well okay the judge and the government Taurus has got theirs I used to be a tourist distributor, I don't know what they're like now, but I used to be a tourist distributor and I got a chance to see everything before it came out pretty much. And those were some of the nicest foreign import revolvers from Brazil that I've ever seen made. I mean I've seen other stuff, the Zastava guns, the Zastava pistols. are nice, but they're not as well fit and finished as Taurus. And that's even when Taurus first came out. Taurus, you know, Brazil, they do good work. I mean, I know that Pimicol, Bob is foreign. Yes, I know. I just said it's foreign. But it's interesting that in their little 44, well, they're not little, the 44 cavalry carbine. I'm sorry, saddle pistol, there we go. Really where they fit is like a saddle pistol category gun. Because, and the neat thing is you can use center fire, you know, pistol ammunition and the things. Or you can use 4-10, depending on what's available. Now I think those are rated for 45 Colt, but I could be wrong. It could be, yeah, 44 Magnum also has been an option. But, and the thing is 45 Colt, has been pricey for a very long time. It shouldn't be because if you're next to 44 Remington Magnum, it's funny, you can buy a box of 44 Remington Magnum cheaper than you can buy 45 long Colt factory load, which is kind of bizarre. But again, it's the way the world works. The big issue would be how long a barrel you want and how you're thinking about carrying it. It is a little bigger, so very popular when you get up into that frame are the belly semi-shoulder holster cross-draw. If you might recall, remember for the longest time, Michigan is where most of the pistol deer hunting weapons were developed. Typically, a long eye relief scope with a K frame, well not a K frame, typically an end frame if possible. But you could use a Model 19. However, typically it was again a Model 27 or the Model 29 we just mentioned, a Smith. Could be a Colt Heavy. The big issue here again is you got to have something to carry it in. What you're looking for is something that's going to help distribute the weight. If you just have it hanging on the belts, you're going to be sagging. Your drawers are drooping real quick. So whatever way you do it, it's kind of like basically if you're right handed, it would be sitting at about, and your belly button is 12 o'clock. Typically the holster sits at about 3 o'clock on an angle. And if you put a scope on it, it accommodates the scope too. the checks made a holster for the Scorpion basically the same way and Wasn't a bad design In this case again, it's gonna be sized for 10 ammunition right now is everywhere I will say that if you're gonna go for 410 if you're serious about the pistol But you haven't gotten it yet. I would just start buying 410 ammo seriously Because you're that's gonna be the thing is building up ammo before you know things hit the you know shit hits the fan And the reason for that is that 4-10 is like 380 Auto and 5.7 FM. When it's out there, it's out there. But the moment things start to get testy, that's one of the three, four, or four calibers that disappear immediately. 380 Auto, 5.7, 4-10, and strangely enough, 30-30. Which by the way there's still tons and tons and tons of 30-30s out there but that's why when people get into a you know, I won't say a panic vibe but when the population realizes they need it those calibers disappear pretty quick. Now I will say this, it's why you want to watch estate sales. I have seen so much for 10. at estate sales that it's just ridiculous. I mean, in fact, this last year there wasn't an estate sale that we went to that didn't have 410. You know, Mark, we went into a pawn shop about 10 years ago and there was a lever action 410 shotgun sitting there, you know, in his rack and he put it in my hands and I think he wanted $375 for it and I offered him $3.25. I wouldn't go more than that. But it was a pretty sweet gun. And I got a bunch of 3 inch mags, $4.10 from an old shotgun that I had. And that thing was only chambered for 2 and 3 quarter and I was like, ugh. I almost went and bought it, but I didn't pull the trigger. It was a pretty nice rifle though. Well that's why let me recommend two because they're still out there. I don't know Ross he's probably making one. There should be at least a couple companies making a single shot for 10. You want it if it's straight tube it's going to take whatever shells you discover. You know what I mean? And that way you got something to spend the ammunition in if something you know like that happens if it can only handle the you know standard length rather than magnum you know the long longer cartridge. then I still would collect them all. I'd collect all of it because there are tricks to shortening that case if you had to. You know, we're in a situation where we're on the edge of whatever is stupid thinks stupid is gonna do. And when that happens, you're immediately gonna see a downtrend. Ammunition-wise, people will not know how to maintain discipline. Consumption rates will be very high. The bad guys actually count on this, lack of trigger control. And what's more important is hitting. You know, hit your target. Aim low, go slow, aim low, hits count, misses don't. And this is one of the things I see that they've conditioned everybody to the idea that you're gonna be in some kind of select fire. Number one, I don't see anybody out there with a helicopter in their backyard to drop equipment or ammunition to people when they need it. So the most important thing is to press discipline into everybody's training to control that trigger finger, focus on hits, and working as a team because you can sustain fire without burning and munition out. That's one of the problems I've seen for a very long time. We used to be taught. And again, they do teach teamwork still, obviously. But as far as the idea of rattling a massive amount of ammunition down range, that's just not going to work for us. Now, it won't even work for the other side because if we get into, we're already seeing this, if we were to get into a conflict inside the U.S., what you got is all you got. The government's already in this boat with what they just did on the big ticket items. What you got is all you got. So they ate up a whole series of categories of defensive and offensive weapons. Whether or not they were effective, mostly it's argued they weren't. So again, you had to keep burning more up. Well, they're at the bottom of the well for the moment they claim. Now whether they are or aren't, they could be lying your ass off, okay? But let's just say that they are. This is where you have to start, you know, again, backing off and focusing and prioritizing. And especially with regard to rifle marksmanship and accuracy, you know, again, we're going to have to focus on reducing the fire rate. Everybody's wanting to select fire, and again, I've pointed this out. How many of you had time on a machine gun, on an automatic weapon? If you haven't, most people base their thinking, their needs for an automatic weapon based upon watching movies. Movies, for the most part, are very unrealistic. They do not offer the, again, let's just say the wherewithal to develop any kind of skill with an automatic weapon. People either braze them, you know, the word brandish, or they, you know, do stupid things with them where you, because it looks dynamic to, you know, hose down an area. Well, okay, you ran out your belt. How much of the beltway, how many of those belts do you have with you? And you have noticed in most movies they don't want you to think about picking up spares because, well, that would be dangerous. That would make you a thinking human being. And we can't have that. That's why we have movies. So you don't think. You don't do right by yourself. And it's one of the biggest problems that we've got across the board is perception as opposed to reality. And reality is very different. The moment that the bullets start to fly, whoever gains the process of teamwork combined with discipline will defeat whoever they face. Teamwork combined, and that's why they don't want you to train. That's why they don't want you to, I mean seriously train. I'm not talking about going to the range and just blazing ammunition. That's been a popular plinking event forever with people. That's not what we're talking about here. We're in a very different situation right now where people are already lamenting about ammunition availability mostly because also the price. And everybody knows this. If you've been out to go shopping for anything, what's the cost of all that stuff that used to be relatively cheap? Well, it ain't cheap anymore. In fact, just reverse. That's why we need to be scraping up all of the material laying around across the countryside that pops up from these estate sales and things of that nature because again, even there they're asking a lot more than they used to typically, but it's still a better price than over the counter or even through the, you know, through whatever deals you're making through the internet. And nobody knows where it is. In fact, as a policy, let me point this out, you want to invest in money, you know, in a way with your money, take your digits and turn it into something useful. If you go to any kind of the state sales or yard sales and they've got a bunch of ammunition laying there, you'd be better off buying that ammunition. Well, I don't have that caliber. No, maybe you don't, but somebody else does. So the idea is that you guys can actually do quite well in the trade. Remember when the barter and trade process is in motion, you'd be amazed what people will do for a handful of ammunition as far as what they'll exchange and what they're willing to trade out. Now of course if you're a smart voyage air, let's not give them enough ammunition to kill us. On the other hand, you're selling something to somebody that might be used on you. Yes, we understand that, so you also have to be discerning about who you market to. All of this is part of being an adult and why we need to be thinking ahead before all this hits. And again, too much, by the way, while we were off, I had a bunch of videos that were thrown at me and me. Thank you, I appreciate it, I'm not complaining. But one of the things you'll notice is total intentional confusion right now. That's not an accident. That's intentional. That's part of the, again, creating the fog of reality, but it also serves the enemy's purpose with regard to not counting on or being able to collect and integrate the information that you get in coming up with a sensible solution. This is why most of what you have... What is the reputation thing about? It's the ball of the field. That's right. Exactly. And again, we got the thinkers, they got the stinkers. So I'm not concerned that we're going to fail in this. But there is a problem with being in the, again, where are you in the learning curve before everything happens? If we're ahead of everybody, if you're ahead of the game, as they always say, then you're not going to get bit when the time comes. You're not going to be hit with a You know, with a big blindsided hit with a surprise pop to the head. That's what they obviously, I mean, obviously are trying to do. The whole idea of the confusion is you're not supposed to figure out that they're betraying you. I mean, I think everybody's figured out, you know, gentlemen, we have gotten betrayed. Remember, the wild geese. Well, we have. So now, cough, you know, check to find out when your oysters are still attached, get over it, and now let's get on with dealing with the problem. And most of this has to do with being properly organized in advance, armed, equipped, and of course training. And training, as much as anything has to do with, as I've said a million times, SOP, standard operating procedure. You don't have to give orders because your people are all thinking and they're all on the same page. The toughest thing about that is as you expand your force, and this is what all militia units find out very quickly, you have a whole bunch of people that you've recruited that are new, that they've been vetted, you know who's in the zoo, you know where they're from, you know who they are, you grew up with everybody. That protects you from most of the operational security issues. But you still have to bring the people up to speed to a level of performance comparable to the team that's developed the process, you know, developed how we fight. So you have to have a program in place now in preparation for that. You need to be thinking ahead right now, how am I going to properly integrate these people that I'm bringing into the fold? And it is work. It's a lot of work. It is tiring in many cases for a lot of people. But it is satisfying when you're done. Let's put it that way. When you're done with the process, you know that everybody's copacetic. You're on the same page. You're all on the same mind. And you can work almost as a hand, as I've said many times. The fire team is four fingers. That's the fire team members. And the fire team leader, that's the thumb. Without that opposing thumb, the fingers don't work so well. They work, but they don't work the same. The opposing thumb is what made all the difference in the world with regard to digital process and manipulative control. So understand that your fire team and your squads have to be thinking that you have to be developed the same way so that they integrate perfectly. Now, if I lose a finger, can I still function? Yes. And if I lost that thumb, could I still function? Well, I better plan on being able to. I know that's not likely, it's like, well Mark, you said we need it. Yes, we do, but you know, again, we have to get used to the idea that we are going to see combat losses. You can't help that. Fickle finger or fate doesn't favor anybody. One minute you're there, next minute you're not. Congratulations. You're going to have to get over that idea real quick about that being something to lament or nash of teeth over. The other side will exterminate you given the opportunity. Our job is to prevent that from happening, which means we still have to take a risk. Sorry guys, that's just how the world works. But in the process, you know, we're going to deny the enemy the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and destroy our civilization. We are going to stop that. We have a mission in life. It's a great mission. It's a great job. Wonderful, wonderful, great job. Like Donald Trump would say, wonderful, beautiful, wonderful, wonderful, great job. But we can accomplish it. Go ahead, jump in there. Most of the family members of people I know are like this. Oh well, what will be will be. And that's it. That's how we are. So true. So you're going to put a boot up their ass and you're going to be the one helping the BSB. What will be will be. Well, guess what? Congratulations. Get up off your good ass and get a motion. At a given point, they're going to have to make some decisions anyway. So if they choose to, they choose to. If not, again, there's a basic rule a long time ago I learned is brush off your, you know, dust off your cloak, brush off your sandals, and get on down the road because there's a whole lot of other people waiting for you. It's like the situation right now. We have sufficient coercive force potential to get any job done. We have militia stacked like, you know, like cordwood. Literally, we have massive numbers of fighting formations. are the issue is the support units that need to be in place in order for those units to continue to function. So what's really critical right now is the support element and that's something that can be easily developed because as I've said many times, they might not fight, but people typically will pitch in especially since they can see the benefit that they might need assistance to in developing, you know, again, medical support response. and how to deal with the threat, deal with casualties. So that's one of the, right now I'd say that's taking up 40% of my time in terms of present recruitment at my level as far as things that I'm doing. We're still constantly bringing in new units or developing or helping, pointing people in whatever direction we can to a system. That's our job. But the big issue is again, oh wow, It's the transportation, medical support, communications, and a number of other logistic elements or demi-logistic issues that need to be dealt with by people who don't have to be fighters. And there's quite a few different tasks. And I'm more concerned with that at the moment because if we don't have, if you can be a shallow crust, well, it's like a thin ice. break the ice and the water is you know, you're not operational you're free-floating your chunks of debris floating in water. We need the depth and we need it in place as quickly as we can which is why we're expediting specific programs. So again be creative. Rule number one, I'm not fretting about who doesn't want to participate I'm just paying attention to those who claim they don't want to because when the time comes A lot of those fools also think somehow they're going to be some kind of management. Well, I'm smarter than you. Well, you can get your act together, or have your head so far up your ass, you didn't decide to move until the last minute. You're not exactly what we would call management material, no matter what the hell you think you're doing. And it is one of the other problems that we have, there's a lot of people who think they're all going to be telling people what to do. Well, you weren't there for the let's get ready phase. And I don't plan on letting anything like that happen because I'm going to acquiesce and be nice. Someone's going to get a boot up their ass for being stupid and we're going to continue to make sure that we preserve conservation and force. To do that, we've got to properly manage. And it's one of the many issues or problems that we're facing right now with dealing with people. Don't fret, but also don't dwell over some of these issues with regard to people. Just walk down. You got enough keeping busy as it is. Go ahead, jump in there, caller. Well, you know, another thing I hear is, I don't need anything. I've already done it. I have enough training. I mean, so... Really? Then, yeah. So, yeah, I get that a lot too. But, yeah, I don't need to go with training. I got enough training. I do enough training. I don't need any more. Hey, whatever. Well, again, the different people, well, there's a difference between somebody prepared and squared away pretty well logistically in place and with experience. Again, with every group or organization they're going to be participant with, the biggest problem is, as I've said, is developing the S-free decor combined with, you know, again, unit development to the point where you work literally as a hand, you work as a team. But I think the best analogy I can explain over the radio is what I just said. Remember, those fingers have to develop dexterity. You have to understand how they need to be employed. What does it take to move them and get them to where they need to be to be able to accomplish the task and get the mission done. Or again, just to be able to move. I think one of our biggest problems is that quite a few people are talking about it, is the whole threat development process with the technology, which by the way, there's nothing I'm seeing new in technology. I think that's maybe it's because of where we came from in the first place, but you know, because everybody goes, the drones, the drone technology, it's a variance on it, have been in place for as long as I've been in, you know, in any military association. There isn't anything new there. It makes me wonder what the hell were they doing as far as education and training with these people that they're so cluster screwed on this stuff. I have to be polite about a lot of my terms here because this is, it used to be second nature. It's like organic air defense. And I know and I've already explained to you what it was. It's called stealing the money because they stole the money. The tools aren't there. The training's not there. They didn't integrate it. They felt they didn't need to burden everybody with it. Why worry about that? We have our wonder weapons. Well, the wonder weapons have all failed, which was expected by the way. We warned everybody about that. So now we're in a situation where you have to play catch up. Well, you had all the money and resources to get things done right. So you have a general management failure on a massive scale that's taking place here. And because of it, it puts the conventional forces at risk. Now here's what's interesting. Our militia, this is how we've trained, basically looking at infrared thermal because that's a supremacy weapon issue on the other side. They got more money to buy more goodies. So what we have to look at are countermeasures. Countermeasures are always cheaper than the product that's being used. They just don't want to tell you that. You're not supposed to think that. Remember it's feudal resist. You'll be absorbed. We're all going to die, blah, blah, blah. The reality though is that if you understand the threat, then you start looking for solutions and the solutions need to be least expensive. That's the first thing you need to remember about countermeasures. you want countermeasures that will deceive the aggressor so they cannot determine the target from the dummy, from the decoy, whatever it is you've created. And so that means you need to develop skills in operating the equipment or again, developing the decoying technology, which has got to be throw away. It's got to be throw away, it's got to be simple, has to work. That's one of the things that we focused on for a very, very, very long time. So our people at Second Nature, I could put a unit in the field with an opt-for, and one of the things that many of the individuals who were training officers had a problem with is, number one, they thought they were going to play games. So they would intentionally alter the organizational activity for, say, a particular training exercise at the last minute. And their logic was that they were going to mess up the aggressor force, which is what I was running, And the fact of the matter is that I got the thinkers, they got the thinkers. For us, running on the fly was the norm. Deploying, you know, in a rapid deployment sense and being able to having to be flexible based upon what the threat development was, means that our people already were used to the idea of altering, completely shifting force, personnel, munitions, fire power in general. And over and over again it was the individual who was trying to bollocks up the event for the sake of trying to throw egg on our face. They were the ones that failed completely because they expected, they assumed that their people could do their job and they couldn't. Whereas this was something that our people, I had worked into the training concept from the beginning. Also, replacement or straw bossing. In other words, if I needed to send a platoon of men in a direction, I could point at a man who was not a platoon commander and he was completely up to speed with regard to being able to integrate and work with each of the squad leaders to accomplish the task because everybody was cross trained. I took seriously what we were taught way back in the 70s that everybody knows everybody else's job. It's one of the few things that's in We were soldiers. If you watch it, every man needs to know the job of the man above him and below him. Well, in reality, what it means is everybody needs to know all the jobs in the team. So everybody gets a chance, everybody gets cross trained, and by the time you're done, there isn't anything you don't know. And if you keep repeating the process by repeating, again, train as you will, fight for you, will fight as you have trained. We took this from platoon to company strength to battalion strength. Right up to, of course, Oneo-Marine Divisional strength now. Michigan Militia at Large has the equivalent to heavy brigades, which constitute 4,000 or 5,000 people. Now we don't have as many of those brigades because those constitute two or three counties overlapping in some cases, but they're organized like a fast response, a quick response brigade. They know where they're going to be rallying. They vary the rally point depending upon the need, depending upon the threat. They incorporate all of the present technologies, but they also incorporate all of the deception technology, which includes anti-thermal, anti-infrared, and also signal communications discipline. Because remember, if you don't create a footprint, it's a little harder to track you. And by the way, there are no cell phones in the field. Everybody understands that. Let them carry cell phones. We'll see how that works for them. We all know what we're going to be doing with that. Anyway, a couple things I want to touch on before we get to the top here. I'm going to shift subjects now. Again, attention, attention, attention. Over at CenterFireSystems.com. CenterFireSystems.com. CenterFireSystems.com. I didn't know that these things were there. I had appointed you to them sooner. When all these price changes take place and stuff has shifted, it's interesting that a certain thing that may have been put together, and we're in that flinky point with a lot of stuff like this. Over at CenterFireSystems.com, go to magazines, magazines for weapons, then go to AR-15 magazines. When you get there, go back to, I think about page five or six, you'll have to go through, there's a bundle deal. I want you to take a look at that bundle deal. It includes a pack, it includes magazines, it includes a drum, it includes three different types of sites. Tri-rail site, an AR-15A1 carry handle mount fixture to give you a picatinny rail to work with. There's a single mag pouch, not a big deal, but it's a gimme. And take a look at it. A flashlight holder too, I think. So you've got everything to add all the doodads you might need on an AR-15. But if you added up, oh, and an AR-15, a really nice sand, earth, coyote, brown, color, whatever you want to call it, a skeletonized AR-15 stock, CAR-15 stock. Anyway, it's not the usual Car-15 old mill. It's a triangular-shaped stock, and it's collapsible. But what's interesting is it's a great bundle deal. You get, if you go take a look, the magazines, what they cost, the drum, what it costs. The backpack is in that wasp camouflage pattern, one of the four. That's one package deal. You want to take a look at it, then do the math, go figure out what the cost of the items are, and you'll see it's a pretty good deal. The other is go to AK mags. Same thing, go to CenterfireSystem.com. Go to magazines, then go to AK-47 magazines. Couple pages, three pages in, maybe four. There's another bundle group for the AK. Now in this case, they have 20 round AK mags. They're steel. But there's a bunch of other items that are in the package deal. Once again, because of the shift in prices on things, both of those bundle deals are actually a pretty good package. Both of them are actually you're saving quite a bit. Go look at the cost for the particular items. Now in theory, those are supposed to be in stock. Now some of the items that are in those bundles are not in stock. So, the only thing I might do is tomorrow I'll probably give them a call and say, hey, are these bundles effective or not? They should be, because they do go into the shopping cart, which is how I test it, and they go, okay, yep, they work. Anyway, these are two pretty good deals. They're both at www.centerfiresystems.com, centerfiresystems.com, and they're bundled deals. One is over in the AR-15 Magazine category. Go through it, you'll find it's the only one of its kind. And it says that it's in stock. And over in the AK magazines, it's again, the only bundle deal of its type. What's interesting is the AR one, the Wasp camouflage items are all kind of high priced. So if you just figure what the average price for that backpack is and then add the mags and the drum, You've already exceeded the cost of the bundle and everything else is a gimme. So just a heads up. How do you want to do the math on it? The mags are free and the other stuff is what cost. But it's a pretty decent package deal for either. It's one place to stop where if you've got an AR and you were looking at piecing things together, you're by yourself. It definitely would be a way to get the mags you need to fill up your mag pouches. You got a drum, which is kind of handy to have. and a whole bunch of other items that may be related that maybe you didn't pick up yet because you're piecing your gun together. So check them out. We gotta go what we can afford. Not what we'd like, but what we can afford. That's how we need to be thinking right now. Other than that, we're almost to the top. If you want to support Liberty Tree Radio, you can send us a donation if you feel like it. And while I say thank you, we've got people who do that every month. Actually, some cases every week. And again, God bless you for pitching in. There are some things that we are changing out and or we're moving. And that's going to happen. We've got some technology upgrades we're looking at. Also, water, water and more water. Well, Mark, it's raining out there. Yeah, I know. We know. We got lots of water falling from the sky. Water storage. Whatever containers that you can find that are food grade, and if they're not, Mark them just for cooling or toilet flushing. But you do need to put some water in reserve, not in the pumps, but actually already above ground and in containers that are sealed. I highly recommend you do that sooner rather than later. Again, the intentional confusion that you are seeing right now is just that it's intentional. And this fog and miasma that they've created is to try and set you off in a skew so that you're not really sure of what's going to happen. Well, rule number one, let's make sure we take care of ourselves. To do that, you need to deal with the problems that we've put on the big long series of lists we've made on the program or you can find easily with the guru of your choice out there. But whatever you do, get it done. Once it's done, you're set for a little bit. I keep adding water. I just got a new source for water containers that are food grade, massive quantity, and every day I've been grabbing more and filling up more. Because if I have a small army show up, I've got to be able to at least provide them immediately what they need. They may not have any time to sit in one place for very long. They'll have to tactically disperse. protect themselves from overhead issues and in the process we feed them, we re-clothe them if needed, restock ammunition and also make sure that all those canteens are filled that they're carrying so because water is life. So there are a whole lot of things you can do to help pitch in and be prepared for what the bad guys have planned. And the bad guys are in Washington DC and over there in Israel. Hell. And you see what they're doing to all those people? They want to do it to you the same way. Let's get our act together. Square everything away. God bless our Republic. Yes, in the new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. Hey, Louie, we're on the mark. Most day in the night. Kick him to the slight and beat him down hard. I'm gonna get out of the way and take him over for El Cherkana. Monday has come to a close for the intel report. But we'll be back tomorrow on Tuesday same time on LTR. God bless.
