Mark Koernke discussed federal overreach and border security issues on August 25, 2014. The show featured commentary on a television scene depicting multiple federal agents (FBI, INS, Secret Service) in a post-9/11 surveillance scenario, which Koernke used to critique the police state mentality. A caller from Texas provided a border report on Patriots on Patrol, a citizen militia group led by Archie guarding five river miles and three border miles across four ranches, reporting they had turned back approximately 200 illegal crossers and had direct verbal contact with cartel members across the Rio Grande. The show also covered false active shooter reports at Fort Lee, Virginia and CENTCOM headquarters, wild pig herds in Texas as a preparedness concern, and criticism of ISIS narratives and border security failures. Joe McNeil made an extended on-air appeal for listener donations to keep the Micro Effect network operational, stating he had not paid August bills and needed consistent monthly contributions.
