Patriot Power Hour #348

Do you want statement of purpose? Should I email you? Should I put this on your action item list? Would you decide your own love love involvement? We are the Proper Broadcasting Network. You are now listening to the Patriot Power 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. Patriot Power Hour. We're live once more Thursday May twenty first, twenty twenty six, Episode three hundred and forty eight a Patriot Power Hour. I've Ben the Breaker of Banksters here with Future Dan Future Dan. We're watching a launch of Starship Flight twelve while we intro the show tonight. That's that I love it because lots of times we have Patriot Power Hour during breaking news hours. Sometimes stuff happens after we started and I only find out about after we finished. I'm like, wow, we should find a way to see what's going on live while we talk about Patriot Power our topics here, So now we're doing it. It does take a little bit of foresight. We got to plan ahead to find these things and you know, it's also a little tough to produce and put live video on. But I've been watching this and getting ready for this launch for about a week now. It's a big one. We can talk about why, but I agree that should be kind of a mid year resolution. Everyone got a New Year's resolution, but we're practically midway through the year. Got to use the video part of our audio visual here on Rumble dot com, part of where we broadcast on Prepper Broadcast Network. What do you know about this rocket? Well, big picture Starship is the XL version of SpaceX launch vehicle, or really it's the front end of the launch vehicle. They have the booster which everyone's seen come back down to Earth land in the ocean or even get caught mid air by a grappling arm. So that system Starship. This is the twelfth flight and this will be Hey, I've only done cursory research, but I do know the biggest innovation of this particular launch the Raptor engine version three being used, much more efficient, much more powerful, and they feel like this is the real efficiency gain that will allow them to really be able to make not only on the Moon, not only in kind of that translunar orbit between Earth between the Moon to sort of be that gateway. But even mass produce these vehicles and this type of engine, if not this engine itself on the Moon with raw material on the Moon in twenty thirty forty years and launch from the Moon to Mars. That's their game plan. That's why it's called the Gateway to Mars. So there you go. That's my quick quick update. Here. Is this a launch pad? Is this NASA's property or does SpaceX have private launch pads? Private launch pad in Texas yet at the Starport in Texas. They call it off the Gulf of Mexico or Golf of America. I guess. Big initial public offering coming out for SpaceX, a company that does this. Elon Muss, you know, one of his biggest brands, right. What do you think about buying SpaceX stock at the IPO. Oh buddy, well, let's see how this launch goes. If it blows up, you know, it might be getting a discount on that price. Now, there's a lot of facets to this, so we can talk five to ten minutes about the SpaceX IPO and just IPO and how to use you know, your four one KD your advantage and things like that. But I think SpaceX is legitimate and we'll make a lot of money, but it's probably gonna be overhyped out of the gate. That's my first thought. But you know, for me a year later, do you have any doubt it's gonna behave Like, I don't know, look back at Facebook's IPO, right, if any doubt that the massive worldwide demand for this stock is gonna you know, just make Is it a no brainer investment? No brain there? I don't know if I would say no brainer, But it all depends on the numbers, and I don't have the numbers in front of me. I know they're saying it's gonna be a one point five trillion dollar mark cap valuation, which is bigger than anything practically. Ever, where are they getting that pro forma look forward revenue and earnings multipliers? I don't know. I'd have to look at the data, and maybe I'll do that at some point. But you're pretty much buying the hype. But on the other hand, the hype is real with SpaceX in my opinion. But I wouldn't say it's a dead guarantee or anything like that. Nothing like that. Is so talk to me about financial repression during financial crisises or you know, do a political crisis, you know, worldwide economic contraction like the nineteen twenties. What what what is some of the worst case financial collapse scenarios that would talk me out of you know, ever hoping to benefit from doubling or tripling or quadrupling or maybe time to ten you know, for for a decade or so, but then, as you've said many times, the house of cards falls. You mean, you may never you know what, Well, what do you expect they would do to stock owners of things like this if if they needed to? Hmmm, well, I'll say, if we're not talking about corruption and just stealing your money outright and some sort of bail in theft that buys you know, of course is a huge threat. But a company like SpaceX that has that map I put Nvidia and other and some AI in that too, that you know, looking forward five ten years from now, could just make so much more money than they even are now realistically that there is a case for it be valued at such a crazy level, but in a way that requires a very you know, m How do I say this when you look at the pyramid of economics, like what must have been getting done for the next highest advanced phase to be completed. You know, first level, you got to have water and food. Next level, you know, some basic education and some infrastructure from your you know, the roads, blah blah blah, you keep building and building electrical grid. That's a whole other level. All that stacks on top of each other, and at the very very very very top of that is artificial intelligence and space exploration. So if everything underneath it, the whole pyramid is stable, that yeah, the true frontier vanguard of science and money making would be in space and an AI. But if that entire pyramid below it is shaky or falls apart, you know everything, there's no way they're going to be able to hold together a one point five trillion dollars evaluation. In fact, it might even just be practically nationalized by the US military. Yeah, that's what I was thinking, nationalization for. Both AI and this. So I mean they are like a national strategic resource obviously. So in the meantime with Freedom Raining, we got the live look of you know, some really advanced technology in Texas right now. And we are a tem minus twelve minutes fifty two seconds. And for my you know, I've watched I've seen a couple of rocket launches in person, pretty far away, not that close, thankfully, how to get that dad joke in there. But most times i'd say seventy eighty percent of the time they will stop that. Okay, seventy or eighty percent of the time that they do not launch the rocket, they stop it before what T minus one hour, and almost all the other times they stop it, it's before T minus ten minutes. Now, that's not saying there's not a decent chance that they will stop this at T minus two minutes and do a kind of an emergency stop. But what I'm trying to say is I think it's definitely better than a coin flip that we're gonna have a launch here in about twelve minutes, and maybe they'll have a temporary. Hold at ten minutes. But but we might be watching that while we're doing the news blitz here in a few minutes, we'll see. Maybe that wasn't us. This feed just crashed. Let me see if I can fix it. I actually thought you went to the heat I thought you went to the heat map dashboard with that, but uh no, we watched the clock. I'd like to get back to that when it's live. I will. I'mbout to find another channel. This video is unavailable. Maybe it was taken down. It was I was watching the pirated stream apparently, so let me see what I can do on the other end. That is sucks. That sucks. We'll figure something out anyway. I wanna hear some of your thoughts maybe on if you had any more about either SpaceX IPO or just in space invest investing in a frontier. It's definitely going to attract capital, retail capital away from bitcoin, gold and silver, so there might be buying opportunities there right during that I p O. That's that's a thought. And if it is highly successful, it's reminiscent of what we were doing in the late sixties early seventies, you know, head to head with the Soviet Union, so it's winning winning another space race, you know, before our eyes, So you know, history echoes, right, And I think that getting getting a piece of uh that company through Fiat system equity might be a good idea if you especially if you know, if you otherwise sacrifice your wealth to tax. Is, because you can throw it into four one not pay those axes, right. And this is actually a perfect segue, but not even to say just a related point of fire with Forge in the chat, say tomorrow's Bitcoin Pizza Day, Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day. That's the day bitcoin was officially traded for pizza, one of the first, if not first ever bitcoin transactions. I think it was fifty thousand bitcoin for one pizza. But I want to parlay that into another example of using your four oh one K money or IRA money that's essentially captured and you can't directly buy physical bullion or buy land with it, or buy ammo or prepping gear, but you can get some access or exposure to bitcoin through what used to be called micro strategy now it's called strategy. And what you're talking about here is you can get access to the future of space economy with the SpaceX. You get you know, obviously AI with Nvidia, and this ain't rocket science, but it is. But I get where you're coming from. But man, those valuations are so high. I can't give actual like if I think the number is fair enough, but it seems crazy high, especially when I am much more concerned about the stability of the pyramid underneath, Like you know, it seems real, real shaky ground financially, so it's gonna be hard to maintain such a high valuation, even if it's a legit technology. Right. I wish I could spend bitcoin to buy SpaceX stock better. At what point Musk allowed you to buy Tesla's with bitcoin? I don't know if he still allows that. I think for some reason he rescinded that and everyone was pissed. That's because he's with that doge coin. He thought that was cool. It was a lame uh. I'm a bitcoin maximalist, toxic maximalists, just like fire with Forge probably is. But anyway, I got another feed up. This is like a split screen of the official space X kind of show. Obviously they got their own show going here. They got a couple of hosts on the right, a stack on the left. I know a lot of pretty much everybody, or eighty ninety percent of folks are listening on podcasts. We won't presume you can see everything. We'll try to describe it. But now they got different views of the stack on both sides. T minus eight minutes. They didn't stop it this lunch. I don't think they I don't think stopping it within eight minutes is the something they want to do. I've heard of the ten minutes starts fifteen twenty half hour when they're just running down a checklist and and and then they you know, within a minute, they just turn it back on or they cancel. But now now and under ten minutes, I don't I think it's a go unless if they cancel, if they call it off now, not gonna launch. It exactly perfectly said, and they I believe the next launch window may not be till month or excuse me, tuesday, because we got Memorial Day weekend coming up. They confirmed they would not launch it Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Now they got like Nicki Minaj on the set, who it is one of them? What's up with that? That's crazy but cool whatever. I don't know. She likes rockets and stuff. She likes Trump, that's true. Right, maybe she you know, I don't know, Caunder estimat. Or maybe doing a favor for Eon right now, right. Like the chat's going crazy here on YouTube or whatever the hell is this everyday Astronaut YouTube channel. I was actually watching this a little earlier. He's kind of a cool guy. I don't know if you like astronomy and space launches, go check him out. We'll she give him a shout out here every day astronaut. But his chest make a bank. And and and this she's there for the for the I p O. So yeah, it's gonna be. It's gonna be the all time biggest I p O. Ever, what is the day for that? Did they announce the day? I want to know? And I listened to this announcement yesterday and they announced it yesterday because this was happening today, right, And uh, Musk is a genius in a lot of ways. He's got his problems, but look at this, I. See it June twelfth. June twelfth is NASDA X ticker s p c x X. Yeah, so this would be much larger than you know. I'm sure people have done this analysis. Maybe I can do it on the side or find get a I to do it real quick, but be a lot larger than X. And uh Tesla bye, by far, I believe what is Let me go look with Tesla's market cap now and it's maximum market cap because that Tesla had a much higher market capitalization back in the day. It's still quite large now. But this will be this is much larger, as my point. So what this is just a test launch. I're just putting it in an orbit. Did they say, what that happens to this rocket after it gets up? That's the thing where I really should have done more research. I didn't. Weren't even going to necessarily bring this up too much on the show, but we're like, this is a perfect timing to do before the dashboard. They always have I'm sure they have hundreds of tests going on, honestly, but they have like a few primary objectives, several secondary experiments or tests, and all different types of computers and all different types of stuff going on. So I did not have the whole details on that, but apparently a lot of other stuff too. Look at that spaceport. That's that's good to see. What was it turned Obama's term? There was no launching of anything by the United States. We were taking our stuff over and letting the Russians put it into orbit. Okay, you know, last last decade. So this is this is national security without a doubt. This is something I could absolutely get behind and be raw raw USA USA, because first off, it is of the upmost national security, but it's also coolest shit, and I want to see this. It's embarrassing that we couldn't launch anything. We had to go to Russia get old USSR produced engines that were like mothballed from nineteen eighty four. We had to do that. Pretty sad. Don't have to do that anymore. That's nice to see. Team minus three minutes, twenty seven seconds. Here we go. When there's you know, when the market has a demand and technology catches up to reality. No good things can happen when you stay away, stay out of stay out of the way. Private property, private spaceport in Texas got a private coming out giant part of the revenue of space exss federal contracts of course, but delivering payloads into space on a regular basis at a lower cost, classified payloads that lets us do things that are necessary and no one else can do. This is this is a big, big example of our national power bed. And you're right. It sits on top of a of a of a you know, a pyramid, as you said, or just layers that you know, if it cascades, this doesn't become possible, but possible. Now this is the Patriot Power Hour. So we're gonna we're gonna hopefully watch a central launch or a successful experiment if it goes wrong. You know, that's what muscle come out and says they learn something. Yeah, oh, for sure, he's had pretty good success, but he's had a couple of spectacular fail failures. But that's literally part of the game. They try to push as hard as they can, especially in these test launches before they put a human on it. You know. So a couple of minutes ago, I did do a little research on the side. Tesla's worth one point three trillion right now, so SpaceX would be a little more valuable, but Tesla has quite uh. I guess they've already produced quite a lot, been a livestock for quite a while, so you know, that's a pretty large capitalization honestly, and SpaceX coming right out ahead two one hundred billion plus ahead of that and maybe even rocking it up, so hey, maybe that you know, it's very possible it could go up thirty forty percent in the first like three days, so don't let me hold you back from a gain, But it could also drop another thirty percent like the day after that, So I don't know, maybe not thirty percent, but it could trade almost like a crypto, especially early. On, under what circumstances could you see it not having had a significant gain within twelve months. Well, if they have multiple failures of their products, especially if they had like two hours four launches failed and then future contracts got set back eighteen months, twenty four months, that would just you know, that would hurt morale, and it had hurt some of the financials, so that'd be part of it. And then the biggest one though, all the subsequent global strife, if general recession or even depression, that will that'll just bring it down. There might eyne budget cuts for everything, you know, even even military. I don't know. It sounds like that'd be the last thing to go though, so you could try to say that like, hey, well one of the last things to be cut would be SpaceX federal contracts. So I think that's true. Uh, sabotage target, big sabotage target. So it looks pretty secure. Don't know if any of our adversaries have any kind of directed energy weapons in orbit that could mess with this thing. But it's gotta be done. It's gotta be done. We got we gotta be able to do this, and uh. Oh hell, forty seconds and then it stopped. Now it's positive forty one seconds. I think they positive. That's not good, not. Good at all. Even the chats like uh, oh, scrub, scrub, someone saying they canna scrub it. Talk about hype, I know will be the best Patriot Power hour of the worst intro, I'm not sure. Don't worry, folks, We'll get to the dashboard shortly. We actually already it's already good. Whatever whatever happens here, it's still good. Uh. There could be a lot of reasons to pause this and get eyeballs on the next one that goes off. Well, let's give it another there's forty seconds in the countdown, but a pause, So how about we give it about forty seconds and if it doesn't start up, we're gonna go the dashboard. That'd be pretty much as they say that it's going with thirty six seconds, thirty five, thirty four. That was like that was that could. Possibly technically solved in that amount of time at that point. What what happened there? That's what everybody's gonna do afterwards, Like what happened there? Oh, we had to be clearing an alarm? That's what they'll say we had to clear an alarm, it was a false alarm. Blah blah blah. Are you gonna give us a countdown? Ben? Obviously it's back at forty one seconds, but I don't know if that's delayed. I don't know. They're not giving me the info. I swear I think they held it again. They're messing with us. Chat's going crazy too. That rocket looks st Is this supposed to be venting stuff right before blast off? It was venting a hell a lot before. I don't know if it's got done venting or they stopped venting. No vents right up to being right launched. Yeah, this looks like it's not happening as planned. Wow, doesn't that look shut down? Definitely don't look like it's gonna launch in forty seconds. Damn. This is like real rocket science that we can't cope with. Things aren't as easy as pressing the big red button. You know what happens if we go cut away on Patriot Powerer to the heat board, heat map, dashboard, you know what's gonna happen. I'm gonna have it on the on the third screen over here, so I'll flip it over. If it goes, but uh I our dashboard is not thin. There's a lot of it, so I don't I almost don't want to interrupt it even if this thing does launch, but might have to, I don't know. You make the call. What do you think? I think we should try to flip back and forth? If you can manage it, you are. You are producing the show live, so defer to you on whether you think you can do that. All right, all right, how about all just do the dashboard, but we'll keep it on screen. I do see it ticking down again. It's already messed with us twice, but now it's at thirty three seconds, so I believe. Let's stay right here. What's gonna happen? Let's twenty nine, We've got suspense and Patriot power hoer tonight's back. Up to forty one seconds. I think the SpaceX cat Dad is trolling us or it's got a bug, because they way back to forty one seconds after Can and Dad to twenty seven. I swear this is not even me messing around. Let's go to the dashboard. I'm gonna keep it on the video though. How about that? That's probably a surefire way to have this thing exactly. We got to pull out all the stops here. So let's do this. Let's start with economics. Federal government debt officially hits thirty nine trillion. Every day, five billion dollars added to the federal government debt. Foreign treasury selling is getting serious. Foreign countries selling their US treasury reserves not good. Tomato and beef prices notch new records once more. Americans to face highest Memorial Day gas prices on record fifty six percent increase since March first. Epic Fury West Texas Intermediate hovers around one hundred five dollars a barrel. It did drop under one hundred as well. It's pretty volatile all considered. World oil stockpiles depleting very fast. Warne's head of the i EA International Energy Agency, new FED chair, says he's gonna shrink the balance sheet. Oh man, I can go into a rant for fifteen minutes about that. We'll talk about that in a second. We have one in five jobs facing high risk of AI automation in the next few years. One in five jobs. You're in the Great Depression. The unemployment rate was like twenty or twenty five percent, and that's one in five jobs. I'm just saying more people tapping into their four oh one k's early. This is actually one of the most impactful, highest grade articles of the night. These are new records and it's only growing. More and more people tapping into their four oh one k and totally depleting it too. A couple more economics, we got a strike in the New York commuter rail system. You know, strikes could become a big theme in the coming years. Keep an eye on it. Bitcoin gold silver been fairly flat over the last week. I will say this silver had a huge rocket backup to nearly ninety dollars, but got cut back down to seventy five dollars. It's traded like a crypto. Don't sell your Silver's my advice. Let's move on. Well, quick check on the rocket. It's still stuck there for forty seconds, so we will continue. Let's move to security column, and let's start with well, Trump and his delegation they went to China and they threw away all their Chinese gifts before Air Force one. At first you think maybe that's just disrespectful, but of course foreign black ops suspected what could be in those gifts? What could they be made out of et cetera. The Secretary of wore abruptly cancel's deployment of an armor brigade combat team to Poland, more evidence of NATO potentially dissolving. Then we have riots and curfews all around as a spring break, and it's getting hotter and now heading into the summer, Memorial Day, et cetera. Chaos erups on Jersey Shore, large team gathering sparks of curfew. In Rhode Island, three were stabbed in a violent brawl Virgina Beach saw Crazy Team takeover Florida. They're cracking down on it, and they don't mess around too much in Florida, so they decided to start literally and figuratively cracking down on crazy and vandalism and violence and all that as well. Chicago not as much. They have a street takeover. No one's stopping them in Chicago. Went viral and a lot of these have been kind of partying and that type of writing and curfew. But we do have a Miami man accused of coordinating multiple intersection takeovers which was drag racing. So just chaos out there. Hey, all these people just aren't on their iPads all the time. They're getting out there mixing it up. That's a glass half full way to look at it. That's it for security, especially domestically. We will talk a little Iran, but that's under the first column, under liberty and specifically war unconstitutionally waged. President says he postponed the scheduled attack of Iran at the request of a Middle East leader, not the requests of Congress, but at the request of the Middle East leader. I ran warns of attacks they're gonna make on their enemies outside of the Middle East and in Cuba. Moving on from Venezuela to Cuban. Now US charges former Cuban president with murder. US intel community analyzing how Cuba might respond to military action. So all this under war and constitutionally waged. More liberty security I called the Bill of Rights column. That's how I like to phrase it. Almost we have media ignoring Senate hearing on FAUCI and the COVID lab leak allegations, news being censored, freedom of the press. We have Second Amendment opponents turn their sites on regulating muskets like oh my God, insult to injury, more attacks on the First Amendment. Man jailed for thirty seven days because of a Facebook post actually wins an eight hundred and thirty five thousand dollars settlement. I would spend thirty seven days in jail eight hundred and thirty five k depends which jailer prison I suppose, not a hardcore prison with lifers. I don't think that would be out worth it rby, but DOJ to probe five hundred thousand Maryland mail in ballots? We also have evidence of lots of mail in ballots coming in on Massy. I will say, I ad lib this is not part of the dashboard, but talking about mail in ballots, we had tons of mail in ballots coming in on all different types of elections. This one here five hundred thousand Maryland mail in ballots. And that's it for the first column. We got one more left, and the rocket has not launched, and they've moved on to a guy talking and he looks like he's pleading with the audience like we're really sorry. I can't read lips, but think the launch is scrub Patriot Power Hour continues. Let's you know what I we'll show the dashboard here in a second. I don't want miss anything up. Let me just finish off the fourth column. Nature in Health. Six point one magnitude earthquake in Peru Injures twenty eight, damages some buildings. Really bad drought. We've been covering this for a while. Just continues to get worse throughout the country. But some areas getting relief, some areas getting much worse. Texas Panhandle in western Oklahoma pretty bad. Kansas wheat crop could be the worst since nineteen seventy two, more than fifty years. Thousands evacuate as fast moving, wind driven fire explodes outside Los Angeles Simi Valley. It's called the Sandy Fire in Simi Valley. Thousands under evacuation order. Fifteen percent contained seventeen hundred acres. Some pretty valuable real estate. Some are like heat humidity englfing much of the East. Yeah, earlier this week very hot ninety ninety five degree heat index middle middle of May. Now here's four articles about asteroids. Usually we get like one maybe every other show or one a show. We got four and one episode of Patriot Power Hours. So kill shot is coming for Earth Worn to CIA remote viewer behind re or before their recent death. So a remote viewer ESP can see the future. A kill shot. That's gonna kill off most of humanity or all of humanity's coming. Man, I hope that's not true. Asteroid passes Earth at zero point one three lunar distances, so that's much much closer to the Earth than it is to the Moon. Zero point one three distances from here to the Moon. That's very close. Then we have another asteroid. It was the twelfth ever predicted to hit the Earth and it didn't. So it's a very new science to be like, here's an asteroid that's gonna hit the Earth. They've never actually I mean, this is the twelfth time they've ever actually done it correctly, so they could barely identify them, let alone tell when they're gonna hit and be accurate and do it before it actually hits you. By the time they could figure it out, it'd probably hit already. So anyway, that it's only the twelfth ever that they predicted to hit, and it did, and it hit between Australia and Papua New Guinea. It was very small, of course, didn't you do any damage, thankfully. But then finally another asteroid the size of a blue whale. It could easily destroy New York City, metro area, massive thermonuclear bomb equivalent if that hit, or massive tidal wave for example too. Anyway, it's supposed to be hit coming pretty close to Earth, so you do not have enough reasons to prep How about natural asteroids? If humans can cause our own problems, but asteroids prep for them. Forty one people in the US are being monitored for the Haunta virus, the cruise ship virus. It says it may survive in human sperm for up to six years. Holy. Yeah, that's like spike protein. New Ebola outbreak declared it in Chicago. Eastern Conggo has a rare ebola type. We're always watching these. Hopefully it doesn't bubble up or spread out, but we track this over time. Will be one of the first to release new info if we can get it. Six hundred cases, that's a lot. It's not like five people or twelve, right, six hundred a couple of articles. Mexico City sinking almost an inch per month, that's a lot. Mexico City has like ten million people or something. It's a lot of people. That's not right sinking per se. I mean maybe partially, but I met more like you know, that's a lot of infrastructure that could break, because that's a lot so unprecedented. Sinkholes emerge is the indicator that falls under Well, explore that one later. And finally, I saw this in the back channels earlier this week. Explosive device was found and detonated and a water reservoir in Alabama. Yeah, trying to pretty much bomb a damn. I guess future Dan, what can you give us on that? And any thoughts on this launch that has not launched. I watched the clock. It did the same countdown from forty two to thirty something and went back up. So mystery to us what the SpaceX people are saying. But I don't think it really matters what they're saying. It hasn't launched, and sure we'll find out the reasons later. Yeah, fouling up fresh water reservoirs. That'd be bad for a local area, right, So dangerous news. There lots of different just different angles, different vectors on the heat map dashboard to talk about. Wherever you'd like to explore. I'm with you. Hmmm, let's see. The asteroids got me a little shook, just because they seem to be coming out of nowhere and I can't believe it's only the twelfth one they actually found in time and predicted that it would hit That means because I know more than twelve have hit us since they've tried to do this. So now these are again smaller ones. So maybe and maybe it's a good thing they're starting to catch them. But I don't know that remote viewer, the kill shot. Can you explain why did you put that on there? Why did that hit the threshold of being worth putting on the CIA remote viewer? What is that all about? I don't know about the credibility, but the topic is that that that fits the indicators a backdoor asteroid, like a really big one, and it's coming from the direction of the sun, so we have no means to detect it. Now, there's been a lot of money put into like governments and academia to you know, try to get us some kind of you know, fore warning for these things. But if you thought that this was a solved problem, you probably saw a few Hollywood movies that weren't anywhere close to reality. Oh not, that's very true. That's this is definitely a rude awakening that oh well, we are full. Not only could we not stop one, we might not even see one until a few days before in the. Twelfth ever that was predicted to hit Earth. I think they counted it burning up in the atmosphere. When they burn up in the atmosphere, that that still counts as a hit. And that's what happened on this one. Yes, yes, yes, does does not have to necessarily hit the ground. Very good point. Well, well, I will say this, the remote view was talking about a coronal mass ejection solar flare, which is another space threat from space. As if we did not have enough human made threats, so another good reason to have some prep and going on. I think there's just too many reasons to prep almost but add in oh, I didn't talk about any volcanoes. We you know, we always have the volcano report here. So natural disasters, wildfires, even droughts, earthquakes, it's all, you know, no major event that's killing tens of thousands right now, thankfully, but all those are getting some awareness here and some articles popping up on the on the dashboard. Yeah, much more active column for you know, health and science than usual. Probably should just go back to Bulah. We talk. We've had, we've had the outbreaks since since you know, the last decade to do and I broadcast this show. The hundred is a large number relatively because you know, think think of Ebola as the exact opposite of common cold. Common cold has, you know, easy to transmit and difficult to kill someone, and Ebola's the you know, pretty much the opposite on those dimensions, difficult to transmit but quite easily kills. So as long as it stays that way, it's going to be another tragic Ebola outbreaking. Maybe there'll be a cure for that someday, but we got to watch it because what if it stops being hard to transmit? Right? And this is a new strain, so to speak, or one that has not had much exposure. I don't think it's novel where they've never seen it before, per se, but definitely not to this level where it's spread this much. And that's where the mutation could potentially happen. I think that's the theory there, one of them, one of the other seven Americans that have actually been exposed there, so aid workers and whatnot as well were there and became exposed to it. So and it's always fun to see the the news articles about how, you know, just the evil Trump won't let them back into the country. But you know, obviously gener Obama's ears, they let the people back in the United States, And common sense says, if you're in any place where abola outbreaks occur, should know that you can't come back if you get exposed. It's just I mean, that wouldn't have been a question prior to this century, but in this century it's it's not a political thing. Right, You're right, Yeah, this very recent phenomenon have happened back in the day or even been questioned. So yeah, Northeast cargo. We'll keep an eye on this. You know, next week it's twelve hundred and the week after that it's three thousand. It'll be bad, but hopefully we don't talk about a bola for quite a while. H Well, I've seen the haunt of virus. Am I pronouncing it right? I don't listen to mainstream media. I don't know how they pronounce it, but I call it the cruise ship virus. There's forty one people just in the US being monitored for that hasn't exploded or got into some sort of pandemic trajectory. But what's your what's your thoughts on this one? Yeah, it's just again you know, it has a high lethality, but you know, low transmissibility, and everybody's paying attention to see if that transmissibility is increasing, right, and if it doesn't, then it it stops being a news item pretty soon. Well, to round out this column and round out the blue whale size asteroid firewood forge put blue whale will use anything but the metric system that was pretty funny, doesn't asteroid? Isn't that vivid kind of like you can see the shape like that's a big rock. That is a big, fat, bulbous rock. Yeah, I get it, that's true. They usually do school bout size. So somebody flipped it to well sixty sixty footer, isn't that what a blue whale is? Sixty foot something like that? That's some Yeah, like you said, you know that hits the wrong way. It could be a big problem. It depends what's made out of but especially with like solid nickel, not much will burn up. That'd be the big Mmm. Where have some like ice type of comments and stuff can burn up a little a little bit better. So a lot of variables there. Back Door asteroids spotted will keep tracking what we can here. On That's one where if it really was coming, all the indicators of continuity of government would go into effect. Helicopters lifting off from the middle. Of DC, just everybody getting out of d C, getting to going to the bunkers, headed to the bunkers. That's where you know, if you want to know if that's going down, you know, Chanz will be the last people to find out that the back door asteroid has spotted, right. Right, Yea, all these other things would be flashing, not about the asteroid, is what you're saying, essentially, like. Abnormal behavior and senior government and military leadership. But that's why we have other indicators like you know, military assets moved, continuity of government operations begin Yeah. All right, feeling like it's nineteen ninety seven with some asteroid movies here, I think that's about the year those all came out. Economics, more people tapping four one k's early. While we started the show with should you use your four one K or ira or all that you know to invest in a SpaceX or how can you use that? Or is it you know, should you use it? Blah blah blah blah blah. But a lot of people are actually going the other way, around six percent of Vanguard, one of the biggest four one K financial managers, took a hardship withdrawal in twenty twenty five. And that's before you know, this year where inflation continues and at best growth has stalled. I don't think you know, in the last four or five months has not gotten materially better than twenty twenty five. And and affordability and how much money people are making, so you can expect this trend to continue. I think, uh, it was four point eight percent in twenty twenty four. It was only about two percent before the pandemic. So you're always gonna have two three percent of people who got to use their four to one K for whatever reason. There's obviously legitimate reasons or you need whatever. But six percent three x the baseline. So that's I mean, I understand why. I certainly understand why this is ranked as the highest one of the highest grade articles of the day. What about you, Yeah, it's a leading indicator. It's also one of those indicators that's sort of you know binary yes, no, it's hard to get like topic, you know, great level one green, then yellow, orange red on this when this is announced, when we find out about it, it's happening. Therefore, boom, it's it's black on red grade one. But there's no other black on grade red ones tonight. So you know, it could be a hardbringer of a crisis, but it's not in itself a crisis. And a lot of people, you know, just you know, follow the conventional wisdom and start putting a lot of uh, you know, whatever they can afford into four one ks and iras at a young age and they don't own homes. At some point in their life, they're like, you know what, we're gonna have to do a down payment and get a house. So it could be some of that. Yeah, well, there's definitely different reasons to do it. A hardship with draw. There some restrictions to it, but you can get around it fairly easily if you wanted that cash. But you know, three x compared to the baseline, if we see that grow to four x or five x six x, that would be a real leading indicator, yeah, because it could. It could cause a run on the on the you know, on stocks and on the banking system, right that could you know, a big enough run on four oh one k's would bring down the big, you know, systemically important banks, wouldn't it. I would say that the percent of money in the market sustaining everything that comes from the type of people that would have to take a hardship with draws very very, very very small. So there is an impact of that, i''m sure, But I think it's more of the smoke of a different fire, or the fact that these people were one payment away from getting foreclosed on or getting reput in their car and they're having to hit their four one K. That'll kick the camp for three, six, twelve months and then they're going to run out again. If that makes sense. Yeah, that'd be more you know, widespread basic economic collapse scenario. But you know, enough of enough people losing trust that their money should be in equities and moving it out on the you know, just not participating in four one k that I mean, if it's gradual, the banks will adjust, but if it's awfully abrupt, I wonder if they've laid other bets that you know, bring us you know, bear Stearns two point zero. Well, I don't I always say this, I don't have the numbers in front of me. I would suspect though twenty percent of four to one K holders represent eighty percent of the wealth, like most things are eighty twenty rule, and you know, somewhere around that maybe, And I bet it's probably not the top twenty or thirty percent of four to one K accounts that are taking the hardship withdrawals. But if they are, or they start doing it, that is an even bigger problem than those that are kind of scraping by. They got like a seven thousand dollars four one K that they barely can chip in because they're barely getting by. That's bad and that could hurt the stock market if that margin is cut out. But it's more of the people that you know make two hundred three hundred, four hundred K a year, if they're the ones that stop contributing or even start taking stuff out, that could make a big difference. I'll give you that. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense to me. Yeah. Well, I feel like gasoline and oil still haven't hit that total breaking point yet, but they are maintaining kind of right at that edge. And I think a lot of that is what this article covers here that world oil stockpiles are depleting fast. So you know, oil around that hundred dollars gas around four bucks? But what would it be if they were not using stockpiles? Number one? Number two? How long can the stockpiles go for? Is it a few more months or another year? What's your take on this? And I guess the overall chokehold of oil. So I guess i'd ask you a question with that, how much demand destruction has happened? Because that's what that's what we care about, right to the extent that gas costs war is you know, what we're really getting is what else can people not buy? What else can people not afford? What else can people not sell because people won't buy it because people can't afford it? Right, the demand destruction? And I think we would have heard from all of the standard media outlets that you know, if there was a story there to tell quite yet, they would be screaming about it. I don't hear it, but yeah, it's it's got to come sooner later, doesn't it. Well, some of the function is the time. How long is it? It's still only been a couple months, I guess, you know, two and a half months, really like two months that it's been more elevated prices and about a month month and a half that it's been like four dollars gallon gas. That's not very long. So consumers haven't even had the chance to change their habits if they could. They're kind of just forced into it a lot. It's not like they're downgrading to a more fuel efficient car that's a little cheaper or something instead of a fancy suv. That's like a big picture way to look at its driving less, taking public transportation, war, just not going anywhere, just kind of locking yourself down. Being economical about where you go planning your trips. You're you know, not running out of gas in your typical week, and that definitely cuts down on just kind of stopping here to get something to eat, stopping there to buy something, seeing something that you didn't know was there, going into the store, coming away with the purchase. It's just got at some point with less people out and about it, it's gonna hurt economic activity. I gotta believe it. But I'm wondering if the old you know, shibleth of one hundred dollars bare of oil, that that that kind of concept got frozen in my mind during the first go for war when Iraq invaded Kuwait, right everybody was scared to death of you know, one hundred dollars a barrel oil, And I remember I used to pay for gasoline that was like dollar twenty five, was like the average, and it was never it almost never got that low again. Briefly in the late nineties, I remember buying gas at that price, but not not for much longer. Right, So, but I'm not sure if the one hundred dollars barrel oil price tag is the boogieman that it once was. No, it's not. That's why it's semi acceptable to be here, because well, it was one hundred dollars I think, I mean you said this in the back channel at one point. That is kind of the gas prices we had for I don't even know how long, like at least a year, maybe been a couple of. Years, years under, a couple of years under Obama. Yeah, like two and seven and eight before the blowoff top and financial crisis. I think oil was like one hundred and twenty for a little bit. Definitely, they had one hundred gases four bucks, So we're kind of there. But think everything else has gone up fifty hundred percent inflation since then, So the fair value of gas will be seven or eight dollars a gallon. So I guess we're winning because it's not seven or eight dollars and it didn't follow everything else. But what if it did get to seven or eight dollars. There's just so little slack that could be absorbed. That would be devastating. And I don't necessarily think it will as long as there's oil stock piles to fall back on. But if that dries up or something, you know, that would be rough. That could be tough. I've seeing the Will Smith meme when he was in I Am Legend with the Manhattan gas prices up behind him. High six dollars. Yeah, that would to me psychologically high six dollars. I have a hard time believing that the economy wouldn't be on the way to be collapsing if we got there but four and a half dollars. Yeah. We ran that way for a lot of Obama's term. So we're big on analogies in here, especially like I don't I'm no engineer by any chance, but I did go to Purdue and know I got some engineers and stuff. They're pretty good at it. I not smart enough to do that, but I know a little bit about mechanical engineering and friction and systems, but let's just take it back to a little bicycle. I feel like this is just like if you ever had a brake pad on your bicycle that was just too tight and it just rubbed against your tire. So it's like your break is always on. Yeah, it's like that. So like we have to peddle so much harder just to overcome the drag, and every penny above is just a tighter squeeze. And as you know, there's like a critical breaking point where all of a sudden like locks in and you can't drag through it. It's just kind of like bucks and yeah, now imagine that seven billion people on the planet gets crazy. Well, it's it to be resolved. And we got you know, calling to news where threats being made to relaunch attacks, and it's Trump is just job boning the world oil market on a daily basis for like eight nine weeks now, and there's nothing that the oil market traders could do other than listen to what he says next and trade on it. Well. I don't have any evidence of this, but there's certainly people out there claiming there's a lot of insider trading going on with maybe not even the Trump family, but just those who might have access to that information ten minutes before it hits the wire. You know, a friend of a friend of somebody. I don't know. I know there's a lot of insider trading on the Democrats, a lot of insider trading on the Republicans. And there's a lot of money be made if you had just a little inside information on what Trump's going to say next about oil. So there you go. Yeah, feels like the Soviet accuse your enemy of exactly what you're guilty of, right, Yeah, So from a Democrat point of view, it would be obvious for them to do it. So to them, it's obvious that their political opponents are doing it. Yeah, I don't know. Well, again, if there is evidence of that, I hope it comes out. But un till there's evidence, kind. Of tough to prosecute ghosts, all right, I mean easy to accuse them, right, easy to accurey Salolensky kind of accusation. Really, just just make it and put it out there and no one can unforget it. And the ardent anti trumper is just all they need is, you know, something to repeat that. One of the other ones said that they you know, they collectively can can understand well enough to just repeat. It, right? Do it with Epstein? Now, how does that even make sense? That Trump is guilty of. Anything in that and they and Hillary wouldn't have used it that Obama wouldn't have used it against Trump when it was at least when he made the Republican nomination in twenty sixteen. Like, how they not lay that at his feet to defeat him? Right? That was always the best argument I heard against it, is they had all these files for years and years and PLoP probably lots of other stuff that will never get released, and they would have used it against him unless the one thing is well, unless it would have taken them down with them, and then they're just kind of in a stalemate. But even that's kind of tough to believe. They wouldn't have somehow tried to take him out and in some way with it. I don't know. What else we got on the heat map dashboard. Did the rocket go off? No? I mean I haven't looked the last few minutes, but pretty sure, pretty sure they scrubbed it. Maybe it'll take a look, take a look. See we might want to be right. We are live shows. Let's see, let's see, let's try to be accurate for the audience. Well, I mean, like I said, the guy from I'm Past off the body language of the space A SX guy, he was pleading like, sorry, this did not go off. But is it sitting there on the pad? The live feed says this is ending and it's just sitting there. Yeah, they think lunch that that that probably brings more eyeballs on it next time around. Someone in chat says Nicki Minaj appeared in the Starship scrubbed out of cringe. No, it sounds like it's not. If you're gonna be conspiratorial, that would be a the right kind of media circus. You need a month ahead of you know, an I p O. I don't know. They don't want it to scrub like this. That can't be good. I mean, it's better than it blowing up. But but but you're thinking about terms like you who's aware of you know, everything you explained to us about what this ship is and what the plans are for it, and you know, you know, you're at that level of understanding. There's people that are barely paying attention except for Nicki Barage was there, Minaj was there. And then when they launched it again in a week or two, and then people start talking about. The I p O. Right, it really would it'd be way better for the IP it launched in a week or two. I'll give you that. That's true. It's hard. Hard to not be conspiratorial at times. Do you ever did you ever build those rockets? If you launched those like miniature rockets? Did you do that? As a kid man? I wanted to like the ones that actually had a little motor in them, right, No, I forgot why I didn't get that one and one as a kid, I did live in Colorado's prow to start a forest fire. Maybe that was half the reason, is that right? Okay, that's why I got fireworks for sure. Definitely no fireworks allowed. Like when I was a kid, we'd go down to Denver and we could do fireworks, but like, yeah, no blowing shit up in the in the forest, catch everything on fire. It's not to make jealous, but I'm a little bit older and new a little bit, you know, perhaps back in the days when you know, kids were freer to do stuff. Pretty much because between time I was a kid, and you were a kid. Hundreds of other kids have probably learned how to turn those into RPGs and it hurt people and damaged things. But we did it in high school, as in our shop class we built rocket and even before I, you know, it was yeah, a little bit after that. In tenth grade, I got chicken pox, the real one, ten days. There was no vaccine back then, and you sat it out at home and I got my parents gave me hits to build. So I launched rockets that whole week because you know after you know, I say, you know, but you may not know if you never had chicken pox. You know, the worst part of it is the first every two hours, and then after that, you know, you just you got the marks and you got to heal up and not be contagious. But you feel fine, especially when you're like fifteen, which I was, and I just made rockets that whole week. You know. We used to play with those all the time. And I was watching the Space Ax sitting there on the launchpad and be like same thing. I just that very miniature version of you know, getting one to fly fly straight. You know, it was the whole thing. In my shop class and Junior high is like who. Had the best launch, who could get up the highest, and whose parachute actually worked, and who got it to come back down? You know where you got it again unbroken? It was fun now I'm getting some memories back. We did do that, but it was with water jets that you like compressed water if I remember, so, it wasn't as cool. It's explicive rockets and like it was like middle school, like sixth grade or science class or something. Dude I made. I had the ones that had the two stage like it would oh man, it would go up and then then there was an extra it would burn out up hie and it would pop off the top and another charge would then the second stage higher. Yeah. Those were really hard to build and get to actually work. Ah, I'm jealous. That'd be sick. Maybe I should do that. It'd be fun. Hobby build a drone next so you could film it from the drone launching. Cool. So SpaceX is a scrub but still high drama on Patriot powers and that was fun. What else on he dashboard deserves attention? What else does the audience you know, want want us to talk about? Well, let's go through let's go through Iran. But was it yesterday the President Trump said he postponed the schedule to attack. I believe it was yesterday. It was the day before times flying, but apparently was gonna attack stopped it. Some thoughts some strikes might happen over the weekend here in a day or two, but still kind of in this tense standoff where Iran's been crushed, but they still kind of hold the straight hostage. They said they won't give up to uranium, even though it's all blown the hell it's kind of a cluster. So I don't know. Wow, do you think Trump's gonna hit him again anytime soon? Or are they just still negotiating? What's the timetable here? I don't know what they're gonna do, but waiting out Iran, who might be in a much. Less advantageous position, you know, Like I said, like what would be better for Trump to resolve it tomorrow or to resolve it first week of October decisively? That's a lot of times for things to get worse or wrong or fall apart for some political points. But I guess it'd be maybe better. For our I don't know, I don't know, maybe maybe Cuba goes down by then, right. Yeah, that's true. That's the other It's like, you know, under the same indicator, Cuban president charged with murder, former president charge murder, and Intel community in a lizn how Cube might respond to military action. So there you go, speak of rocket the dictator of North Korea, rocketman. He might get a finger pointed his way sometime this summer. I think this is an agenda this year. The really put hard to the test, you know, real tyrannies, real bloody, torturing, murdering tyrannies. We talk about soft tyranny at home and how how woe is us? I say, as America, how bad are you know? We're getting repressed and we are compared to where we were, compared to what our constitution allows. Definitely an emergency here, but this isn't tyranny compared to some of these places that are you know, attracting, you know. Trump and Rubio's agenda this year. I'm pretty much for what they're doing in Venezuela and Cuba because they're in our backyard and they've been a thorn in our side directly. And I won't even go into how they're involved with Democrats and all types of corruption. But uh yeah, Iran. Listen, talk to the Iranian expatriots, talk to. The Venezuelans, the Cubans, the Iranians, talk to North Korean defectors. Right, like, bloody tyranny is it is what it is. I'm all for bringing it down. It's long overdue. If we could do it successfully without causing more problem. That's the thing I don't know. I don't know's if we'd say that and then decades march by, and these repugnant regimes continue to plague the earth. I'm against them. I'm against that at home too. It's never gonna happen here. We're gonna fight it. We'd fight it if it ever got close. It'll absolutely be a second American Civil War if ever a government started to approach what you know, the Cuban regime has done to its people since the nineteen fifties, or the Iranian regime since nineteen seventy nine. I've had enough of it now. The only thing is that they really should vote for these things. The Congress should vote. They won't, though, and that's why Trump's probably gonna do it anyways. They won't go after North Korea. That would be even stupid than Iran, because I mean, China already set in millions of troops and all types of fighter jets and equipment in the fifties. So you think he ain't gonna do that? Is he. Might be some gunboat diplomacy, some some statements made, some moves made, uh some you know, just some some demonstrations of force. If bringing down maybe three other rotten tyrannies ahead of North Korea, you know, they would have to wonder if it was coming their way. By the way, Uh, we do have breaking news tonight. Heard it right before the start of the show about one security headline that you had. Apparently Poland has successfully changed the administration's mind. The armored cavalry brigade that was scheduled to go to Poland is back on orders to deploy now, So. All right, any reason why Maybe they decided it was a bad idea, Maybe they wanted that armored brigade in their backyard instead of NATO or what I thought. I thought Poland was pretty friendly to Trump in that regard, but maybe or he. Got a concession from him, right, you know, there's there's intra European politics that Trump is clearly interfering. With in a way that no one else would. But you know, it's just no one's going to be able to come back after his terms and say Trump was a globalist, that he was in some cabal that cooperated secretly that you know, suppressed the rights of you know, the inhabitants of nation states because. He was all part of the elite. He is. Absolutely mixing it up, but indicting ral Castro probably guarantees that there's other countries that eventually indict him in the same way. The difference will be that they won't have the power to you know, extra item. Night Stalkers and Command Action Group might remove a ninety four year old Cuban dictator. Well, mixing it up, It's definitely what Trump's doing, and I do like that just you know, blindfold them a little punch around. But I don't know. In some regard, I agree with a lot of what he's doing and it's very strategic, but I think the Iran thing, but there's a lot of information I just may not have where totally different circumstances and what I know about where it is worth doing what he's doing, or maybe this chokehold really was gonna finish off Iran by October and they'll be totally gone forever, and a freedom loving Iran eighty million people come about in five or ten years. Seems like a pipe dream to me, though. You'll probably just think relatively less dangerous. And part of that would be, you know, the amount of oil that is getting exported from North America and and and the Caribbean Venezuela is you know, all time record high. And once those supply chains, the contract arrangements, the financing, the shipping, if that really gets restructured long enough, the you know, the Persian Gulf oil might might be significantly less important than most of our alloy allies. And that would, you know, permanently weaken Iran. You wouldn't do much good for the Golf Arabs either. But that's what's happening, you know, you know, the the economics of oil, it's getting permanently changed right now. Yeah, for sure. And I did a little research which countries were getting hurt the worst. Kuwait and Iraq were taking the brunt of it. Obviously Iran is taking the worse, but UAE is pretty bad. Saudi Arabia is not as bad, though, because they have the east to west pipelines, they're able to get their stuff out the back door. Essentially, Saudi Arabia not a winner because they're still you know, losing money compared to what they would do, but they're still making money, way more money because of the high prices, So a net benefit to them, if that makes sense. So there's winners and losers of who has, you know, the consumers as well as the exporters and producers. So you gotta look at both sides. For sure, all the Pacific remnations are really impacted, really impacted. You know, we're you know, the United States is now exporting to our Asian allies, South Korea and Japan, we are exporting oil to them. If you told me, you know, thirty forty years ago, that that's the way the world oil supplies would work, everybody would have laughed. No one would have thought that was reality. That's happening now. Well, I guess I'm gonna answer my own question, or my own kind of requirement here is that if they're gonna use this strategic reserve, it has to be for a true emergency or war. And I mean, I guess that's what we're in right now. So if we're really squeezing out China and squeezing out some of the others that we are not, you know, very friendly with, they aren't friendly with us. And you know, for every ounce of pain we get, they get two or three ounces of pain and it ends up working out that way. I understand that calculus, but I don't know. We're still wasting a lot of resources. And I'd like to just keep that oil here in America underground for a rainy day. It better be worth it to use it right now. I better get something out of it, that's all. It'd be good to see it Russia not invade any more neighbors, or China to invade Taiwan, and looking at what the US Navy can do alone alone to choke off china supply of oil, let it let alone. You know, the European allies ever decided to get with us on this that you know, they know what time it is in Beijing, in the intelligence agencies and in the military command. They they're being shown their strategic weakness, which could change their thinking and and and mutually assured destruction was you know, it had to be long established before the Cold War ended. But once it was firmly established, then Soviet Union just decayed from within, right, couldn't couldn't satisfy its own people's needs. Being you know, communists that could happen to China. I definitely want to beat them using technology, culture and freedom instead of fighting a war with them. So I could see this being part of the Grand strategy. I just get worried when you know a regime collac apses, doesn't mean George Washington's gonna rise out of the ashes. A lot of times is someone almost as bad or just as. Bad or worse worse than the Chinese communists? Yeah, Chinese fascist or something instead. Well, that's essentially what you know. In the eighties Dang decided to do is stop being Marxist Leninists and essentially being fascist and using market principles but state owned industries. So it's been effectively fascist, but it can always pretend to be Marxist Leninists ever since. But look look at that regimes body count on its own people in the sixties and seventies cultural revolution unforgivable. Then why would they not just become a straight terminator society where they kill off seventy percent of their population with robots and the thirty percent are and like gilded cities. Totally can see that. Okay, well we're gonna make those robots out of Chinese EAM. Drones that flying to your apartment to blow you up. Good point, and not literally terminators. But uh and uh, let's just say I'm not visiting China anytime soon. No, I think that. Government has a real, real internal national security issue is just to never lose control of that population. That population, if it revolted, successfully could wipe out. It's too big, it's too many people. It could easily wipe out any government it had at any time. And yes, watching trying to go through like an epoch of bloody revolution, it'd be horrible to see. But this machine that's in charge now, it's it is inherited, it's got it's got tremendous blood on its hands. And since it's the worst tyranny on earth, and I'm against. It, yeah, I'm a guess, I'm against it. Just whatever is the most effective way to fight and destroy it. I'm four, It's just what is. That same way, same way Reagan brought down the USSR. And that's exactly when Trump learned to pay attention to politics so much of what Reagan ultimately did. Trump's just looking at her saying, you know, let me get let me have a shot at that. All right, anything else on here? I mean, we've got about Oh, we got a couple. How about i'llknock this out. I gotta get out of here pretty quick. But it's been a good show so far. Media Ignore Senate hearing on fouching, COVID lab leak allegations. We've talked about it here, Patriot Power our PBN. Uh yeah, let's talk about report on this. But otherwise it's not been much. Let's talk about that. Let's talk about Thomas Massey. Let's talk about Ram Paul, who you know, ideologically very kin to Massy. And let's talk about Maga. And let's talk about Trump and his base. Right. I think it all ties together. This Fauci situation is just one more thing that can be you know, just rolled out before midterm election to energize the base, to to to get you know, put blood on the streets, you know, frog March, Fauci, get get the justice there. Lay it all out in a way that no one disputes. Later, You'll never hear the Democrats say one goddamn word about you know, any of that period again, because it'll be just so exposed. That's the thing that's politics, right, And so I think this little Senate hearing, it's gonna it's gonna lead to revelations that you know, when you're standing there saying what am I gonna do right before this midterm, it's just gonna be like, the only thing I can do is go and vote against any Democrat I can. Mm hmm. That's the only way I can stomach is who I vote against? Uh yeah, well, Massy all time most money spent in a primary. I believe. I heard twenty plus million dollars from the Israel lobby to take out Massey. Another ten million brought in mostly from individuals, And yeah, they're like, hey, your high liberty score, staunch defender of bill wrights and outspoken about the Iranian war. Well we got to spend thirty million dollars to take you out because you look bad when Trump's up there and someone like you dare speak out, no, okay whatever. Man Like, if they do that to Ron Paul, which they would do if Ron Paul was in this Congress right now, I'd have a very serious problem with that. He can run again in two years, Ben and everybody who lives that district can vote for him in two years. This is a total waste of resources, time and attention. No, it should be used to take out Democrats instead of civil war against probably one of the better people in your party. That actually is you know, pro Constitution, Bill of Rights. There's so many other scumbag Republicans you should take out of anybody. But they did. They did Trump had I think Trump went either thirty seven or thirty nine to zero in his endorsements. He figured out, like the source of power is the primary elections. He had no idea how this worked in twenty sixteen ten I was eighteen in the midterms, is like a massive eye opener. And then you know what happened to him in twenty twenty. It was a giant flap in the face watching all these Republicans. You know, they were with him until they didn't have to be, and then they you know, started you know, voting to impeach him. Some of those guys just got primaried. Right, this is how it was supposed to work. I actually think it's refreshing to see you know, highly contested midterm or primary elections. For mid term elections. I think it's a good thing. It's pretty much association, your money, your opinion, exercise it, and Massi and his supporters could do it in two years come on back and run again. We'll have to look to see what kind of election fraud there may have been. I got reports of ten thousand mail in ballots being counted in the last hour or two, almost all for Master's opponent. I haven't seen that for myself. I don't know if they really were ten thousand mail in, but I've seen that, and I don't trust elections. So there you go. No, I don't trust that report. In a Republican primary in that state. That Alday is real lobby. I'm telling you, man, he's really ain't messing around these days. No, no, no, there's a Republican primary. This isn't a general election. Like like like, there's the chances of that happened in Tennessee in a Republican primary election. That that sounds like someone just saying it because other people will just take it on its fact and it be like never think twice, now, you know, in uh Romney versus Obama, in Philadelphia in that election, one precinct had one hundred percent votes for Obama, Like like, obviously fraud. Someone would have voted against Obama just to push off their mother in law, right, but it didn't happen, right, Like you can you can point to those things and and and we did, we did, you know for years obviously in twenty twenty sounds like just someone just saying it because the people that just believe it without thinking about it. So show me how that election was stolen, Show me the headline, show me any facts like that. I'll easily reverse and examine it, and it'll be our heat map dashboard under election stolen. That just sounds something that's easy to say. There you go, everybody. That's the challenge for future day. And I was just positing the question so hopefully people can go do research. Was there a camera account for you here though? So? Was there a video camera that showed a suitcase of ballots being pulled out after the election? Monitors were ousted out of the room, or you know, like newspapers and other paper bags being taped up to the windows to stop people from outside from walking into the counting, which happened in Michigan, Like, show me that then I'll then I'll start to pay attention. But you know, where's where's the Where's any level of jeromnalism on that? That sounds like just some some social media posts said it. Could be, could be people needed to go look it up. Also, I mean, it's absolutely true that twenty plus million dollars a pac money came in. So what's that about it? Right? That was to pay to express an opinion. It's absolutely free behavior in the United States. It's got to be absolutely has to be. Everybody has to be able to do that. What if most of that money is gotten by fraud? Is that fair? Right? But if you don't believe in the message, doesn't matter how many how many times it was paid to be repeated in your ear, but you're worried about it's just this this kind of parentalism of you know, the money in politics means they can advertise more, and we have way too many stupid. People that can't make up their own minds. I don't I don't believe that. I believe that, you know, everybody, everybody should be able to speak as loudly as they as they want, as loudly as they can afford. To, as long as they're you know, not foreign agent's. For Israel APAX Americans. That lobbying group has been around for a long time. There's another thing people should be investigating. Where's the money be coming from? Is it even coming from the United States? I mean, we talk all about the nng O money, but there's a lot of other influential money out there. It's not just US AID coming overseas. It's a lot of money coming overseas. Money's fungible, right, So foreign cash corrupt the elections? When When? When when that becomes like state sponsored fine? But APAK APAC doesn't need to help Israel to organize get donations and pour them into a district to defeat a politician. They don't want fair game. It's all fair game. The voters in Tennessee didn't have to adopt that point of view. They have to. They have to go with it. They're not they're not feeble minded people that you know, if it were not for you know, out of state money, that they would have done the right thing. You know, when you're talking about one or two percent margin, it can make all the different Because I think it was like, yeah, fifty two to forty eight too. You're completely calling in to question the very concept of representative democracy if people can't hear what they choose to hear. You know, everybody in Tennessee could have just shut off APEX commercials. Didn't that they didn't have to listen to them today, it's not to agree with them. I could call it. I could potentially make a case for predatory advertising that's pushed everywhere and it's totally you know, certain viewpoints get the advantage because of Fortune hundred companies and outlets like Google, YouTube, Spotify, iHeartRadio, all types of media. You know. That's I don't know. I'm not an attorney. You'd have to pay me like sixteen hundred an hour. But I think I could come up with at least a somewhat plausible case that it's totally unfair and it's predatory advertising that could could move things a point or two. When you're putting twenty million dollars into a race that usually gets like two million dollars. Okay, So here's the absurdity of that. If you even believe that line of you know, legal analysis for one minute, it can automatically use to repress any political enemy by any other party in any other. Circumstance in the future. So it's it's ungovernable. It it itself is illiberal to say that that is a basis for you know, you know, to control elections, because inevitably a tyrant will figure out how to control it to their advantage. Yeah, well that makes sense. So that's why the people try. I have to call it out as being bogus, and that's what I do. Now. He Massic can run in two years, you know, and if the sentiment moves towards this point of view greater, like if you're not convincing, if libertarians aren't convincing enough of the population to side with you know, what they have to say, then that's on them. They got they gotta work harder on it. And I would have voted for Massive if I was in the district because I agree with his politics, but I also agree with you know, free and fair elections. I mean, that's what free means. Well, the people are gonna have a come up and when time to pay the debt, whether that's financial or otherwise. But I get it. You know, it is freedom of choice, and you know, your freedom to make whatever votes you want, and the reason libertarians don't win is because they actually want to not get everything for free, quote unquote for free. And also, hey, maybe we should defer some pleasure to the future and tighten our belt a little bit. Now, let's just say that's not sexy on the campaign trail, but I get what you mean. They got to improve the messaging, for sure. And there's other people looking at data centers in space, running AI that's way ahead of what we got now, and off world industries and moving humanity into other planets. And if you, if you, if you have that much optimism in the future, thirty nine million dollars, you know, trillion dollar debt might be manageable. You could also absolutely sink us and get us a correction and a depression and a financial reset that we we absolutely oppose on patriot power are So why we talk about It's why we watch it. Right. You know, federal grument hasn't defaulted yet, certainly could but maybe it won't. Not there yet. I agree. I don't want it to. I want to I want to keep my job and live a comfortable life. So hey, still a chance, still optimistic and just a cap off. Massy maybe it'll piss off enough libertarians country wide that it'll have be a net benefit because it's just you know, one seat. Wow, it's not that big of a deal in the political voting scheme, but it's more of the principle. But yeah, there better be a counter reaction by the libertarians. They just take it, take it like a punk. I guess deserve it. It's a good point there for sure. All Right, that's all I got, not anything for you anything else. Watch out for Supreme Court decisions. There's there's gonna be some big ones in June. The whole idea of election day and mail in ballots that you were talking about earlier, that's that's that's a big question, and we might get a ruling that really really strikes down mechanisms of Democrat party power. It already happened with the racial jarre manding getting you know, thrown out right, so Louisiana court case and that this bizarre district drawn that was majority black and that's that's gone. Now you're like, that's a that's a. Really big change and a really damaging change to Democrat party political power in the United States. The right citizenship that's coming. So we're gonna cover it all, running right through June, trying to do it every you know, aiming for Thursdays, maybe not maybe Wednesday, maybe even Tuesday, but regular schedule for Patriot Power Thursday nights. And I look forward to uh maybe a little more relaxed heat map dashboard next week. But if it's not, we'll be back to talk about it. Thank you to our audience, then thank you to you for doing the show with me. Really appreciate it. For sure, for sure we got a good thing going. I'm gonna keep grinding through it. Yeah, definitely, next three weeks. We will round at the spring season. Probably will take off the week of June fifteenth for our summer solstice, but always reserve the right to come back if there's big breaking news or do more than one show a week, so we'll be there. We'll be ready. All right, another good show in the bag, future dame. Catch you next time. All right, we'll do Thanks for a breaker,
