Patriot Power Hour #347

Purpose. Should I email you? Should I put this on your action item? Listen? Would you decide your love love involvement? We are the Proper Broadcasting Network. You are now listening to The Patriot Power Hour, the newest show of the Prepper Broadcasting Network. This live episode features the situational awareness you need to practice self reliance and independence. Introducing your hosts, Ben The Breaker of Banksters and Future Dan, the editor of Future Danger dot Com. May fourteenth, twenty twenty six. Ben The Breaker of Banksters. Here, it's episode three hundred at forty seven of The Patriot Power Hour. Here in mid May, Future Dan, I'm looking at the dashboards super quick, not crazy active week, but trust me, we're gonna have a lot to cover. Yeah, Trump's and Johina. So that's that's a lot to cover in and of itself. Exactly, And maybe that's why there's a little bit of a natural hold on some of the themes in different news. I don't know how to say it, per se. They're not just trends, they're just evolving over time, and a lot of things have not resolved over the last few years, but seems like they've sort of paused. And the trip to China is really going to be a you know, either a fork in the road or make things accelerate in a negative way potentially, or maybe they'll come to some sort of grand deal. What are you looking at? What are you hearing? So we're looking at, you know, a heat map dashboard of dangerous news. So it's not just a news dashboard, right, It's not just some it's not just aggregating any articles that might be interesting. It's recording what's actually dangerous to the United States of America on any given day. And it's just there aren't headlines. We don't have any headlines. In fact, there's a lot of positive news, but it wouldn't show up here because that's the opposite of dangerous. I would say it's the least dangerous, certainly the least amount of articles on the dashboard this year, right. Yeah, but the beat map won't necessarily track something that you felt was dangerous that was the headlines four weeks ago. Is you know, there's gotta be more news about it, right, You gotta keep on going Otherwise. One uh shout to firewood Forge. He's found his way on over to rumble YouTube. Got squashed, got censored on Prepper Broadcasting Network. But Rubble going strong and Fire with Forges in the chat we're live on Rumble. What's going on, mister Firewolf Forge. Yeah, it's great to see. We're gonna be adding a lot more content to Rubble in the near future. I think it's a little bit of a shadow preview foreshadowing. Uh so, how about I knock out the news blitz. We can really cover that and as much detail as we want. Then we can kind of move on to trip to China Good News potentially. I like to talk about ten minutes fifteen minutes of the show good news in economics, I got at least five or ten minutes of econ that didn't show up as dangerous per se on this, but we got to hit as well. But how about we do the dashboard first? Yeah, I'm ready. Let's see it all right. Well, compared to some of the dashboards we've had in the last couple months, this is twenty five percent or maybe even less, so I'll still try to make it pithy. Let's start with the highest rated SHTF level under foreign black ops suspected a red hot indicator. Really all year, Mayor of Arcadia in California, accused of acting as a Chinese agent. Eileen Wang. We do have an indicator that's rarely seen in the really infosphere under liberty. I've never seen it. We'll take a deep dove later, but it's under elites internationally abscond, meaning elites get the hell out of town. Apocalypse early warning system tracks private jets around the world. So I'm gonna put together a private jet tracker. If all the billionaires are leaving town, is that a warning sign? Really interested? I'm going to dive into that future. Dan. Economically, we got no dangerous news. In fact, stock markers doing pretty well, gold, silver, Bitcoin all doing pretty well. It's just kind of into stasis right now. So no articles. I'll talk about some you know, year to date trends shortly, but yeah, for today. On the May fourteenth, twenty twenty sixth ashboard, no econ news straight away, and let's go to the fourth and final call them natural news and health. Well, we talked a bit about the hantavirus last week and that's developed a bit. The rat plague ship evacuated on Spanish Island. Passengers disembarked from a cruise ship apparently incubation time is thirty forty to fifty days. We'll talk and look into this in more detail. Phoenix nearing one hundred and ten degrees, Las Vegas hitting one hundred already in early to mid May, and just America wide, throughout all of America dryest first three months of the year. You know, some rivers near where I live are at historically low or almost historically low flow rates, et cetera. So definitely drought or near drought like conditions in a lot of areas, which is concerned. So future Dan, that's the news blitz. Yeah, drives three months in American hand story, right, but records going back in time, no, yep, various levels of accuracy into the late eighteen hundreds and then you know that's when they started recording in most places. But that's not good, right. And I don't know if elites getting out of town is a sign of danger, but a lot of people did. So that's why it's always been on the heat map dashboard. So here's a question I have for you. It's under the liberty column elites internationally absconded, liberty, freedom, Bill of Rights, things like that. Where how does it fit into that column. Best you think it belongs to a different column. This was the first ontological challenge to the heat map dashboards system of awfully all time. But now that you got me thinking about it, I'm questioning it. Yeah, I can't really think of it unless you wanted to say economically, because it's like socioeconomically based money. You have each to have a fucking language. But you know you got to be rich to have a private check. See that's where you know, we get back to how focused are you on money? How big is that part of your worldview? Right? And it's a minority view for me, and I think of a lot of elites that aren't necessarily their power and status doesn't come from money, right, So politicians it would be probably be the reason why it's a call them one. It's governmental right when Congress is taking to bunkers or leaving the country. That would be extremely dangerous or a sign of extreme danger. So yeah, the big portion of the elite you got your eye on probably this plane tracker the headlines built off of right, they're probably mostly looking at the billionaire jets. I agree they but then again, it wouldn't get to see the military jets if they shut their transponders off, and the people on those transports are probably more powerful. Makes sense. They don't want to be showing up in the richest people in the world. The truly powerful can do so without being so public about it. In fact, this indicator has been used more often than I would expect, and even as recently as March twenty second of this year. Hundreds of millionaires trying to escape America. Yeah, and that's why that guy made the plane tracker. Right. It's getting focused now, but it's had focus in the path. Yeah, rich and famous flea US. There's a little bit in COVID about them moving to Singapore, moving to the Caribbean, rich and famous, et cetera, et cetera. The article itself here is behind a paywild I will not enter my free access to Washington Post, but there is a free warning system to notify ultra rich flea of city centers en mass. Do you subscribe to this on X future, Dan or do you know do you have some sort of exposure or ability to tap into this information? Honestly I haven't tried. Yeah, not yet, no articles pre now, but maybe we can try right now. Well, I know that you have a lot of really cool lists and trackers and alerts on X even like a death contractor if I recall, but I bet I better going for this now. If there hasn't been it will be soon. I mean it's in Washington posts. So yeah. Still a few people read this occasionally. Search it up and let's see if it's there. All right. Well, I don't know if I'm logged into X and this on this browser, though, but I can. Try give this a if it works, it's it's it's useful. We'll give it a shout out on Patrick Parrar because it might be a piece of the puzzle when everything goes real really really really bad. This might be an early warning, like this could be a leading indicator, right Ben, So oh yeah, if it's if it if and of course these people probably you know, we'll find a way to shut off their transponders too if it was bad enough. But we're gonna call this this was an elite plane tracker. Let's just try that layman search. No track or website where you can track the routes and locations of planes, helicopters, and luxury yachts. This is all about the orban Victor orban I guess probably, But you know, there's a lot of this type of track going on. Of course, you know, I'm sure I could narrow it down and find the exact one we're looking at in this thing. Or it's behind the paywall and it's not here. It's definitely uh well, it doesn't make for good radio for me to poke around and try to find it. But yes, it's pretty cool. How I mean, I can't hide that type of stuff anymore. I would consider that one of the highest signal, lowest noise leading indicators, because you're not gonna have dozens and dozens of billionaires get up and leaving with their jets just for the heck of it, unless they add some sort of coordinated bluff. I guess that's a stretch, I think. Okay, But the people that can afford to do this, I think the paradigm that you use, like they moved to Singapore or New Zealand or something like, not really what we're talking about. The elites already have places like that everywhere. It's where they personally go, right, So it's not like they all they moved to New Zealand, we won't see them again. No, No, they they can jet set anywhere they choose to be when they all jet set away from a particular place. Believe me, any intelligence agency would pay attention to that, So damn right we. Should, right, So I don't you know, there's commenters here to say anyone can set this up with flight Radar twenty four. And I think just the way information is now, assuming social media is up at the time, which you know it should be, that'll be even a bigger forward warning. If most social media goes down, it's not a good thing. But this person says, anyone would you know flight radar twenty four can do that? Pretty much? All this information will be open source, so they'll be decentralized, hundreds and hundreds of people tracking this, so as long as they're not faking it, I mean, you can find trustworthy sources. You know, you don't have to pay a dime for this information. But it's interesting that you know you mentioned something like social media being down or what about just the internet down right? Or power grid down? So future danger dot com is meant to designed to help you before that, right, because it in of itself won't be seen after that. But elites doing things like this and I'm not sure a coordinated bluff makes sense. But again, not only include the the moneyed classes, the little classes with the ones i'd like out of the States, because you know, maybe maybe they heard something about an attack that we're about to suffer, right right. Well, uh, there is a lot of noise out there, and there are just a lot of reports. So it's you know, not simple but pretty interest and print in rest and stuff, anything else on the elites absconding quite the indicatory. Like this, I guess, I guess, I guess we all the listeners follow up will find out what that service of that Washington Post articles really is. But can you at least say the name from the the peak sneak peak you get from the Wasshing Post of what. No, they pretty much block everything except for the photo. So there you go, there's a sight there. Maybe the important thing is, you know, not necessarily what they're doing, because yes, to begin where you asked, there's I got flight tracking lists made next from when it was Twitter to watch for not not just this, but other you know, things going on that fight data can tell you and as you can see, the archive for this indicator is you know, as long has lost off. So somebody's institutionalized it and made it, you know, a topic worth discussion by the Washington Post in twenty twenty six. Whereas when the future Danger indicators were you know, developed, right in twenty fourteen and fifteen, this paper would never have talked of such. Things, no way. And you first put the first article posted under that was on future Danger January twenty fifth, twenty seventeen, nine and a half years ago. So Washington Post nine and a half years behind. Yep, me about right. And they're still whitewashing a lot of it. Probably I wish I could read it, but I okay, fine, they got to make their money one way or another. I'm not gonna be paying for their information. So well, we will move on from that. How about to what was actually the highest threat level SHTF level article today? California Mayor Aileen Wang admits acting as a Chinese spy, not just accused, but admits to acting as a spy and resigns during a plead deal on Monday. This is published on Monday, the eleventh. Geez Arcadie is pretty big town, you know, city whatnot. I don't have the population right here, but it's not small in the southern California area. What you got here futured Dan. There's there's no doubt. For decades, people and intelligence agencies that just sit there, that's their job is to look at how do you exploit an advatasary political system. And obviously the Chinese have done it and infiltrated at the grass roots level, so much of the Democrat Party. And here's another shining example. The fact that no one in that party ever acknowledges this has happened or speaks about it pretty much tells you all you need to know. Yeah, Democrat Aileen Wang agreed with prosecutors that she worked for the People's Republic of China to booze propaganda with a fake news website on US soil between twenty twenty and twenty twenty two, which is COVID in election time, probably the most critical two years recent memory of America. She was elected to the city council in November twenty twenty two, worked with her fiance on a website called US News Center. Now this is what man, if I had more time on my hands, I would like to spend several hours diving deep into what the US News Center actually published between twenty twenty and twenty twenty two. Give us a good look into the type of propaganda that admittedly was being pushed on US so US News Center that is orwelly if I ever heard any thing, and you know this is carrying out Beijing's orders. They were executive directors through the Chinese government, essentially tentacles of the Chinese government. Yeah, anything else here, future Dan? How many more of these people you think are out there that are not being brought to justice? Yeah? Well, we'll speaking of justice, what's gonna happen with Swallwell, the California congressman had just quit Congress and he caught red handed, and he was on the Intelligence Committee. He might be like, as far as we know, the top success in Congress. But you know, I look back at the small dollar donations going into Obama's campaign in two thousand and eight, in twenty twelve, there's no way you can you convinced me that the very people that handled this spy maybe two degrees of separation in the same chain of command, didn't have farms of people just shipping money into Obama's accounts for the both of those elections. That's what that's what China is detalitarian, you know, quasied communist regime didn't really behave you know, you know, Marxist Leninist model anymore. But it could always just snap back to that if if it needed to. It's more just fascist now. And Trump Trump's there tonight, and you know, Trump Trump being there tonight letting them know what, what's what is testament to a failure of the intelligence. But it's not like we defended ourselves very very well, but they didn't completely win. But yeah, yeah, I had some people on the inside opening up the gate in a way here. And also maybe uh, maybe we underestimated China a little bit. I don't know. I don't think anyone should at this point by any means. This is just scratches the surface, though I'm sure there's so much more of this going on. And they don't have to look like they're from China to be a Chinese agent. Let's just say that, just you know, they don't have to have parents that came from China to be working for them. And of course we talked about it. The Supreme Court's birthright citizenship decision coming up, and it was presented to the court. You know, there's Chinese billionaires that have surrogate mothers have produced hundreds of offspring that are all US citizens. Right, so children right now, you know, one hundred thousand a year for the last ten years through through you know, landing in the United States and having the child, or you know, just having surrogates in the United States. That's what we're up against. We're up against. Intelligence Agency is looking head to toe, left to right the entire constitutional order in federal Democrat Republic that we are and how can it be corrupted to their advantage in every possible way. That's what they do. Well, we have the haunt of virus hands the virus, how do you say a future Dan and what do you want of it? Eight days later, Rat and Dean rat plague. It blew up the day after you and I talked about it last week. Mm hmm. Last episode Today's three forty seven. We had. Episode three forty six was on May sixth, and literally like the day after and definitely a few days later over the weekend it was blown up. Yeah, So of course we use an article that somebody else published to talk about it on Patriot Power Hour because it showed up on you Jane your heat map dashboard. But once again, god, you know, God say it, not bragging, But we were talking about things that most people heard about pretty much right afterwards last week. So what are people going to be talking about next week that we could talk about today? What is on the heat map dashboard? It's going to blow up and become widely known. I don't know if. I specifically men with haunt, haunt, the virus or this I'm just gonna call it the rat virus. That's whatever else is calling it. Uh, is this the next covid or has it kind of just blown over or is it still kind of not sure? You knew more details about it infectious nature than I actually did. You said that during the heat map when you're when you were presenting, So I don't know, maybe you tell me. I'm not sure that something that's been known to science this long, can you know, become that dangerous that fast. I don't think it's happening. And I'm seeing all these knee jerk reactions to it, Like especially Europe, they just go into the you know, the they go into quarantine. They're happy to go into quarantine. Well, who Director General Ted Rose came out and said, this is not another COVID, So that means people, you're probably prepping your freaking ass off right now. I'm only kind of joking. So apparently it's I feel like there was a little bit of fear building up, and now they're kind of like, ah, hey guys, it's not you know, like a movie outbreak situation, even though at first it seemed like they were going like, oh, there could be all types of people that are sitting next to them that we can't account for, and there's this really long incubation and it's person to person potentially, which is if that's the first time it's happened with these sorts of viruses. But that's all kind of fallen flat. Well, we'll keep monitoring and hopefully it remains that way. But yeah, I saw symptoms are sort of red flags of them really pushing hard to get the fear going, and then just kind of they pulled back from that. Well, it's a death rate you talked about last week that for listeners of last week, you'll remember me saying I can't believe it's that high forty percent. But then I learned more about it, and you know, just the very very very very small amount of cases that happen annually, right, it's just one of those very rare, non transmissible But I mean, yeah, if they start to see things that are passing between people and that timeline short thing, you know, we gotta watch it. Got to watch that the knee jerk panic mode that many media made it into the day after we talk about here. You know, yeah, I'm not sure if I'm saying that was predictable, but I feel good when we're ahead of that. I mean, that's a good sign. Doesn't definitely doesn't win you in the game by any means, but a good sign. To sum it up, ten thousand to one hundred thousand somewhere around that, which sounds like a lot, but compared to eight billion people not that many per year, ten thousand to one hundred thousand of that up to a forty percent mortality rate. But if there's one thing I learned from COVID, it's, you know, a lot of people can be infected and be non symptomatic or just think it's a cold, So that forty could actually be like an eight percent in reality. But even anything above you know, a couple percent mortality rate is pretty serious. So Yeah, this was seemingly a seemingly I don't know, either the start of a contagion movie or just another reason why it's not going to turn into anything. It's the only strain known of the hantavirus to be human to human and it requires long amount of time and close contact. So you know, on a cruise ship from March through April pretty much like six to eight weeks cruise ship from going all around the world. That's pretty rare situation. You know, people aren't getting packed into you know, wooden ships and going across the Atlantic for six to eight weeks too much. I guess these cruise ship people are though, But I don't know. We'll keep track of it, hoping it won't turn into anything more. Got it. But the design of the Utue danger heat map the purposes to pay attention to the news environment. So you were shaving off days of of of of time that were available to take actions that need to be taken to finalize preps before something major goes down, right, So being a little bit ahead of it, you know, it's not about winning or losing the game. It's about, you know, how much further ahead of really bad things can you be to maximize your chance of their survival. Any minute could count, every day could count. Fire with fore says, where were the tiktoks and Facebook lives from the boat? Good question I had someone else. I heard someone else ask that question, like, Hey, this seems kind of weird, like, look, it didn't maintain the way it all happened. Either it didn't happen, or it staged, or it's totally amplified. I don't know the passenger it was just it was it was just a broad cross section of nationalities. Or is it predominantly somebody's cruise. That's a great question. You might the ai to ask that one. And you might have to go look to see if you know most of the people that are on the cruise of that country is it? Is it actually on social media you just couldn't didn't see it, or maybe maybe TikTok would make it widely known. I don't know. Maybe the people that just didn't want to use TikTok on the ship they were enjoying themselves. Yeah, there's a lot of reasons potentially, something to check into. You unplugged, go ahead, go. Ahead, unplugged, unplugged, take a cruise. Yeah, everyone's getting sick and quarantined and died and ship like i'd be, or the. Or the Wi Fi rates on a daily subscription basis. You know they double them after they they make you stay in your rooms. I don't know, got to bring your own starlink terminal yourself. That's funny. I cracked myself up. Well, if anything, I think this is just a flex by the w h O CDC. They wanted to get back in the news. You know, they're like, don't forget about us, be scared, be afraid, So that would be the conspiratorial even anything, you might as well do that. Tabloids are always going to drive that story. Those agencies are reacting. You know, any any got fear mongering that can sell views, It's gonna happen. That's true. We're trying to not be that on the Patriot Power. This is not you know, the Doom Scroll and Chicken Little show. And that's why it's good. Yeah, Good's exactly great segue. We talked about O, there's not that much bad news, and then you said there was actually some good news. You want to start? Where should we start? What do you think about Trump in China? Anyways? I figure. He's trying to come up with some grand plan. Will it be the future of the dollar. Could it be you know trading, you know, a whole new tariff and trade arrangement. Maybe it's not that that big, but I feel like Trump needs a big win there. Whatever that could be. We could talk about what's a win or what's a loss when he goes there. But I mean he's there in person. This is very important times in human history. China's our closest peer. I'm not gonna call us our peer, but I mean this is a big trip. Russian's nuclear arsenal is more dangerous than theirs. Yeah, but economically Russia is nothing though compared to China. Well, just on a pure threat basis that there's different threats, right, So again depends on their focus on money. Focus is highly on money. China's there, it's military, it's not there, not like Russia still has I see they have a triad, right, and China's position geographically, Look at Russia's just how it stretches all the way across that, you know, top of Asia. Tremendous advantage having that much land. Actually, but I think I would accuse your analysis with all due respect is perhaps just perhaps a little outdated. Which one that. That that Trump no, no, no, that Trump has to show up to leave with something in hand as a as a win. Why would it be outdated like any trip of this man who you better come bat with a win, no matter. What conventionally you used to think that you did think of you know, uh, Reagan and Iceland with the Gorbachev right or you know, used to go used to go and sign treaties that have been negotiated long, long earlier. That's not what Trump does and Rubio does. The State Department had all of the deep state diplomats either that haven't been fired, kept totally out of it. And do you think China would ever agreed anything with Trump? They watched Howie Bays with tariffs. He just change what he'd agreed to later. Right, there's no agreements coming out of any of this, and there hasn't been for a while. This is the year, last year, and this year is when all of that, you know, you know, just old international arrangement, national international you know, intergovernmental structures have been torn to pieces by Trump. Right. Nuclear trees with Russia are abandoned. Now, NATO openly discussed coming apart at the seams. You win. National Security Council utterly ignored by permanent members of of of of it. Right, I can go, I go down. Trump taking us out of many international organizations, is in the United States out of World Health Organization anyways? Like who cares what they say? The intergovernmental structures that were established after World War Two? You know, trade regimes? Right, World Trade Organization? When was the last time they've even said that those words? Right, Trump's not coming out of there with any kind of He'll walk out of there and he's gonna say this is what the Chinese told me and move on. I don't it's all it's all personal relationships now, it's not it's not that old old regime in my opinion any longer. Well, I mean, if he's not going to get anything out of China, now, when's he gonna get it? If the whole point of Iran and closing the straight it was just screwed China over. I mean, he's just going there to taunt him a bit and then he'll walk away and talk trash about it at his back. That doesn't seem very productive. Mike, give him an opportunity to make concessions, he'd be ready to make concessions, but he you know, he's showing up in a position of strength, right sorta. I mean, I don't know. We're in pretty bad shape over here, but I guess they're worse than us as the premise. But is it a premise? Isn't it? It's not obvious they're rationing fuel now then right, they're losing control of you know, rare earth monopolies, monopolies. What part of the Chinese world economic position has has had? It hasn't deteriorated since this time last year. I'd have to see the actual data to see what percentage of GDP they're losing per day from it and stuff? But hurting them that bad? I feel like they could keep this sea chip. For a while. Irans Iran has already lasted eighty days. China could last eight hundred days at this rate, probably, But. We're not subjecting China to we couldn't. That would be an act of war that results into you know, mutually assured destruction. But what part of any aspect of Chinese power is stronger than last year? None? I see no evidence of it. And what aspects of their national power are weaker. Many many they're rationing fuel now, right, that's not stronger, that's weaker. How much fuel are they rationing? Do we know? Well? I guess I guess the important point is more than us. I don't know. I think American people are rashing fuel because they're having to be forced to drive less, produce less, unemployments going up, inflation's going up. But I do agree it hurts China worse than us because we at least produce are on oil. That's the one self imposed rashing. Self imposed rationing is on the heat map dashboard. If you see a headline for that, let me know. I'm not sure that will be written voluntarily, you know, cutting back that's bad. I agree, But I think that's some of the rumors, or if not, the statements coming out of Beijing is that, you know, Trump's announcing energy sales. We export fuel to China, right, That's that's quite a reverse in the economic power structure than even twelve months ago. Well, you know, I guess we're not expecting any revaluation of gold or any grain and agreement of across the trade, you know, with trade. But that's it. I wasn't expecting that off of this trip by any. Means, well, I would I would ask the question on on the you know, who cares what the government, any government says Goldsworth, I mean. I guess oil is more portant than gold because you burn it for your military. Got that one, right? Can Can any government control the price of oil? Yeah? Has been done a pretty good doing that for fifty years. Yeah ran out. Eventually the free market will take over. Maybe when when Saudi's were the biggest player in OPEC, and especially before the collapse of the Soviet Union and Russia's exporting you know, that was a different day, right, But olpec's coming apart. Oil is a strategic resource, that is, you know, freely. You know that price is determined by market action, no matter how hard every government tries to, you know, control it. Gold boy, I think we're getting to the day when it reaches the same status as oil. It wouldn't matter what any government said it was worth. People will know what it's worth. So I figure the government's try to get ahead of that. But maybe not. Maybe not. That's so interesting, And and talk to me about like what's the theories on that with you know, the gold reserves in Fort Knox versus the federal debt. Today, you say it's worth forty two dollars an ounce, which isn't reality at all. That's what the US government says it's worth, right, And if they turned around and said it out we consider announced, We the US government consider announce of gold worth ten grand or fifty grand, what would that mean? Well, it would never happen, I don't think with the banks's in control. So it's more theoretical academic, but it would. It would expose the fiat system pretty badly and shake confidence. And at the meantime, it wouldn't even pay off a quarter of the debt. So that's how big in the hole we are. It won't even matter. Actually, And ultimately, isn't that just a fiat gold price. It's literally directed by the force of government to be a price. Same thing, if they can point out a piece of paper, the dollar bill, say it's worth that, pointing at golden saying it's worth that, isn't it. It's still fiat just to perform a fiat right. The kids just created out of nowhere. True, that's the big difference. And you also can't just point out a brick of gold and say it's worth this when everybody else in the market agrees that something else. Well, that's why I have Trump and China agreed that it's a certain amount because Chin's been buying a shit ton of gold, so it'd be who them for America to raise their price on gold as well. So that would be like, hey, kind of a win win for American and China. Gold is re but it'd be bad for the banksters and the bad for a lot of the rest of the world, like Europe, especially because they've gotten rid of all their gold in the last hundred years. So and this is just one sliver of the economic aspect of the trip to China, let alone the geopolitical and a lot of other stuff going on. So I mean, I don't even know they're talking about any of this, to be honest, what. Do you think about Trump rolling in there with all the billionaire executives and uh, do you think Havana anything to do with that? You broke up a little bit, but I think you said Havana syndrome, will have or did he bring everybody so that he didn't Havanah syndrome. I mean, there's lots of people calling for him to not make this trip because of what might get done to him and all of the all the Americans that accompany him. Right, it's you know, do you think that the Chinese will be bold enough to do something that would prematurely you know, you know, harm and prematurely end the lives of people, not immediately like some stupid Hollywood movie, but three years from now, five years from now, three to five years from now, exposed to some kind of radiation, some kind of sound, some kind of experimental weapon, directed energy weapon that that harms them. I think him rolling in there with all those you know, billionaires is a little bit of a form of a bodyguard in that regard. Like, if you're gonna do it to me, you're gonna do it to a bunch of secret service people that no one will ever know their names. You're gonna also have to do it to them. Is that what because some of those big tech guys are double agents for China, and so China doesn't want to kill their own people, like their own you know, golden goose or is that what you mean? Well, one of them owns acts, one of them runs the you know, the greatest semiconductor maker in the planet, like it'd be hard to go unnoticed if some some attack like that that harm the health of Trump and his team, would you know, I'm just saying, or does he does he really treat it like he's like leading a business delegation. That's that's that's that's so in the face of Democrats and old school Washington and neoliberal order to treat the United States like a corporation, and you show up for a for for a you know, literally, to Trump it's a business trip because if any if if there's a you know, a complaint I would have about him, he's might be a little over focused on money. Hard to do it, though, since he's invaded or at least bombarded Iran, that attackt right there. That was not a money move, was it? Well, more of a power move, I guess. But I mean there's a lot of money involved, for sure, a lot of people making a lot of money off of it, So I don't know I could consider that a money move. See, I think everything's the money move, almost everything at least, but probably a little too biased towards that. But yeah, hundreds of billions of dollars are being made from the Iran war over the next five years minimum, So as a money moved to me. But the harm at the polls for the midterms, Yeah, that's real. Right, So there's money, but then there's power the end of the day, power might you know, Money's only useful in so far as it gives you power. Usually that's true for the powerful people. So sacrificing the midterms to check China and put America in a better place making a noble sacrifice? Is that what you're saying, unless he's coming off the ropes like Muhammad Ali and a ropeo dope and by August the economy is humming. I know you want to get into some economics and what you're seeing. We don't have indicators of anything particularly dangerous right now, but is the is the economy in the background actually powerful enough? AI chip maker Cerberus initial public offering today. You see what happened to that stock, the AI revolution is it's generating a lot of money up since the opening on its first day of trading. So it sounds like pets dot com. Well, I like to see their business. Yeah, they don't just feed your dog. They make the tools that make AI happen. Well, again, I have to research the exact perspectus and actual data and see if they're part of the circle jerk of contracts between the five big corporations that all intermingle and incestually signed trillion dollar contracts with each other, and if one of them collapses, the entire circle jerk falls apart. So there is a lot of leverage out there. But hey, I is super productive and powerful, so I can't pick a company. I don't know if sarahbis is going up another five hundred percent where it's gonna be busting five years because it's a total scam. But you know, we'll see in the in the end, AI is real. And in the end of stock market correction isn't necessarily dangerous, but the lasting effects of being the leader, and you know, a technology like that, it's gonna improve a lot of lives, lives, it's gonna it's gonna be productive. So maybe I mean us economically, what what what did you at the beginning of the show, I want to point out for us a little pricing action of the things you care about, gold, silver, pickcoin. It's not much to it. Just over the last three months, everything's gotten, you know, a little worse inflation is worse growth, has been less than expected. You know, interest rates can't go down now they're really cut rates, although the FED is fighting it out, so we've talked about that. But you know, the overall outlook the last three months is deteriorated a bit. And now you're a new best friend. Kevin warsh is now the FED chair. Yeah, we'll see what he does. What do you expect from him? I hate my friend. What do you expect my friend? Unless he closes down shop and clears his balance sheet? If just and audit, audit the yelling Bernaki yelling ears. If you did. That, that'd be sick. You become a fan that help a lot. That'd be great. First step. First, they should do it. They should, they should do it. That would be making America great. That's the kind of thing that you might see in the last three months of a Trump second term. I know we've had this conversation before. Why it's sometimes I guess it's good to delay these things and have them come out at certain times for best effect. But yeah, I don't know when the ship's going down and you already had like the water levels at your neck, don't have too much time to try to finesse things and play play koy with it over the next thirty six months. You know. Yeah, but like usual, Trump and vast, vast majority of Americans don't agree that the ship's going down. Whether it is or not is what we talk about weekly on Patriot Power Hour. But tonight economic indicators, we don't have any negatives. And that's safer. See if it last. Though, my co host is correct in his basic premise that modern monetary theory is fundamentally flawed occasionally in economics, will eventually lead us to collapse. Has to the math, has to math. National debt cannot achieve you know, tens and tens and tens more trillion dollars for its unviable. Well, we talk about it every night, but god admit, tonight there's just no evidence of it, right. Yeah, no evidence that it's not a critical breaking point. At least getting worse, right. Exactly, no evidence on the surface that it's getting worse tonight or this week. That is so the Chinese published first night of that summit, you know, you know, talking points that came out of the first day's discussion, almost as if they said, you know, they want to say that Taiwan will be you know, brought back into the governance of People's Republic in China and the United States risks war by preventing that. And if you read how they wrote it, though it's a little bit timid. They tried to, you know, be on both sides of that fence at the same time. But my opinion is Iran is an example, a Ukraine is an example that their power projection. It's just it's not even close to what it would need to be to take Taiwan, and it would you know effect. I think probably what Trump needs to do is tells you that if you try it, that's World War three. I think that what is it traditionally three to one attackers to take over defense. But I feel like tired now it's I think the it's way easier for defense now right. Well, no, no, no, that's like historical you know, nineteen eighties AirLand battle ground warfare kind of you know what they learned since World War Two through the eighties one to three on ground attacks. Right, this is seventy miles across the ocean to one of the most advanced economies and militaries. You know that, you know, certainly probably the most advanced for its size on the planet, right, So I don't think I don't think. They're a kilometer. No, I don't think so either, because I think, you know, in landed, I think in the current way the pendulum swung. It's just based off what I see in Ukraine. Like, playing defense is way easier now than it used to be for a while. I'm sure the offense will adapt. But let's just say it's three to one on land. Yeah, on seventy mile, that's probably gonna be like ten to fifteen to one, maybe higher is what you would need. So that seems impossible essentially to me. It all comes down to the submarines and how you can instrument the Western Pacific to know where your enemy's submarines are. You know, you know, air force, space force. They always talk about, you know, the air superiority, the space superiority. But for that situation, whatever controls under the sea dictates whether it's possible to invade Taiwan. In my opinion, if you have submarine superiority, they're not gonna be able to do it. Well, we would have the superiority presuming that, you know, but if all of our forces were concentrated there, we easily would, but we're supposed to be able to have worldwide superiority. I don't know about that all. At the same time, all theaters. It's that subsurface drone warfare that you don't get to see. You get to see the ground drone warfare in Ukraine and the evolution of that, you know, right before our eyes on you know, many social media channels and you watch almost as much gruesome Ukraine war coverage as you need to, and you can see the robots being used. None of us ever get to see what's under the ocean, right, So if Chinese robotics were to show me, you know, naval feats, real naval feats, like real systems that can be out at sea and really do what what our military considers, you know, area denial, keep it keeping us all at bay, doing that in the air, doing that on the surface of the ocean, and under it, right, naval and air force superiority that you'd have to have that to invade Taiwan. And you got to ask yourself when, when jeez people put out that kind of statement, how much is that has meant for us? And how much of that is meant for the world, And really, how much of that is meant to keep his own military you know in line. Mm hm, that makes much sense to anything. That's why I'm worried if you know, more hard lined people got it into power. But it mean you make great point why it's just physically impossible. Wouldn't he impossible with the wrong president in Washington? Somebody can just let him walk in, and I got I was concerned about that under Biden. I would be concerned about that under any Democrat. To bring this show of Patriot Power er back to a different article we talked about earlier about the infiltration of one of our political parties by Chinese intelligence. Right right now, it's mayors in California twenty years from now? Is it, you know, real puppets of Beijing sitting in the White House? If you know that is if Obama and weren't already. Well, we'll keep an eye out on that future. Dan, been a good show so far. Anything else you want to hit on before we end episode three forty seven Patriot Power Hour, I don't. Know, Ben, I think we ran in circles. You asked earlier, though, what could be breaking next week? I don't know. See anything on the heat map dashboard that could blow up in our faces. Ah, No, it'd be something that's not on the dashboard. That's the main you know, that's what's what's not on there that could be trending. Now I was thinking more of that specific question. I guess with that hantavirus, haunt of virus, whatever the hell it's called, is that you know, do you expect that to build week after week more and more under pestilence, befalls and similar or is it already peaked out and it'll be something that we don't even remember, like the Zeca virus. You know what I mean? Well, you know you're watching zeka and ebola and antavirus and all of these things. I've been watched constantly because here's here's the problem. They could mutate naturally, right, it might not be you know, the info wars, you know, conspiracy version of events automatically. So of course you got everybody wants to know, is that these things becoming you know, more fatal? Right the nineteen eighteen Spanish flu that wasn't an hear by anybody, that really did happen? Make everybody? So now I don't, I don't, I don't know what I'm not a scientist, So I can't tell you what that disease is going to do, but the reaction to it if we see it coming back, you know, there's there's always that chance that's they're not faking it, they're not making this stuff up. They're doing what you know it is reasonable to do, right, And that's sort of how we all got lured into COVID nineteen. You and I when we first broken on Prepper Broadcasting Network in January of twenty twenty, you know, we weren't certain how dangerous it could be or you know, exactly the cause of it. Still not exactly sure of that, right. We strongly favor the you know, let release by design by someone in China, but still improving that right, So always got to watch the diseases. But I'm not right now there is enough news to trigger some major change to your prepping posture in my opinion. Yeah, with COVID, I would say the first couple of weeks we talked about it, there wasn't a huge strengthening of the signal, but pretty quickly every week was more and more consumed by it, until it was everywhere by March twenty twenty. So that's the type of trending I'm looking for. We'll instead of having two articles about it next week that are topical news, what we have four articles that are read or even shtf And then the next week or a couple weeks later, what we have more and more and more. I think it's too early to tell, but I'm glad to see that there's not eight articles about it and hundreds of new cases this week compared to last week. We'll keep watching that make sure it's the case by next week when we're live what I think we're in next Thursday as well, twenty first of May next regularly scheduled PPH. You know what would really drive up the fatality numbers on any disease like that, obviously with the older people and obviously in colder temperatures. So to have something that that was, you know, some kind of contagion coming for in the summer, in the warmer months, and you know in the United States, a transmission of this, even if not fatal in the United States, that a lot of people are going to worry about that lot and being ahead of those events. If we see that eight weeks from now, well, yeah, we talked about it tonight, but right now, I don't think this disease that's well known to science like no one's I don't hear the words novel, right, novel virus that was COVID nineteen. I started hearing like, scientists don't know what this is. Speak ears are picking up and this is gonna get rated much more dangerous, a lot faster. Good way to put it. I like that. I like that, all right, Another show in the bag, be back next week, Future Dane. We will picture Power Hour on the Prepper Podcasting Network. Thank you everybody for listening, Will Forge everybody else. We do it for you. We really appreciate you being here with us.
