Beside your love, love involvement. We are the Prepper 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. Patrick Power Hour. We're live once more, July sixteenth, twenty twenty six. It's episode three, five four, three hundred and fifty fourth episode of Patriot Power Hour. Ben the Breaker at Banksters here with Future Dan. What's going on Future Dan. Yeah, it's the middle of summer. I don't know if it reaches that period of the year that you called dog days, but it's hot. It's hot summer right now, and some of the predictions we made, some of the things we talked about, luckily are not happening. We've had incidences with ice killing people justified or not, you know, deaths by ice officers officers, and we don't have rioting. So it's one of the things we got to look for, especially every summer before a federal election when Trump's president. But right now we don't have anything like that. But abroad we got open warfare with Iran again. Man, we have so much going on, I'm gonna have to do the analysis, but I think this could be the most packed since twenty twenty for a mid July show. As you said, I call the dog days or the doldrums, the summer kind of that mid to late July all the way to the Labor Day. It's not always the case, right, but seems like that news is kind of tapered off then, except for the summer of twenty twenty with BLM riots and of course COVID and all that going on. But that today is just we have three different indicators that are SHTF. Each of them have several headlines within them, and lots of others to talk about. Not to mention Trump talking later tonight in a few hours intentionally election fraud exposed. That's not even on the heat map. So we'll do the dashboards shortly. Where do you want to start, Well, it is previewed, so maybe we should start and call them too, where you'll see some of the earliest headlines on what happens tonight. Again, this is episode three fifty four. In the evening six twenty two, a BM Eastern Coast time. I guess which is now going to be daily savings time forever. Talk about that to Ben, but we'll start in call them too and see what we think is going to be the news that we'll hear tonight. So in about two and a half to three hours, Trump's expected to give an address presidential address Thursday night, the sixteenth of July. National security emergency related to election fraud is what's supposed to be on the table here, also talk about the Save Act. We could go a lot of ways with this. What's your preview of tonight's show, not show but speech announcement? With Trump? Here, I'm not sure what we'll hear, and that's why everybody is going to be watching for exactly what he comes out and said to be highly highly paid attention to. And I think I said in the past the president has this ability to change the subject constantly because of everything that is readily available as absolute scandal under Biden and even before him Obama. So what the Department of Justice and the other agencies that during Trump two point zero, he clearly understands how to wield control. Right, It's almost like the first term he got handed a government that decided when he won that they're going to lock every single door. And I think of like, you know, the Rears of the Lost Arc, right the movie where the Arc gets hidden away in some warehouse at the end of the movie. It's like every little room of every little department, every office, every cluster of bureaucrat put locks on for the first administration, and Trump is now unlocking the doors, digging in, going deeper and deeper into the bureaucracy, digging into the deep state. He could break major news tonight and change everybody's subject. I love that analogy. I can see that some of those locked away rooms they're trying to clear out and scrub, but they're not able to get everything out necessarily on all of them, maybe even trying to burn some of them down or destroy it. I mean, talk about what was it, the bleach bit or destroying servers and other records, But they can't get it all. And so that's you know, it's kind of a race between can they hide, obscu kate or destroy or can it be exposed. It seems like it's a good race. Remember where they started with doge volunteers showed up with their technology and applied it to government it systems. What you're suggesting, they just it takes some time to how to unlock into different compartments. Deeper and deeper they go, but they know how to kick in those doors now. And I'm looking to hear about facts about election corruption from twenty twenty. And I'll recall, you know, when you and I joined a different podcast as guests and talked about this in twenty twenty, and I drew some iron from that audience by saying, you know, what's done is done. Biden's president. Now, there's no undoing this, right, but the evidence that they and I knew at the time was very likely to exist. If if it's coming out, it's coming out tonight, and it could be a information operation by Trump's administration the White House to you know, drop something like this every two weeks, every week, two weeks from now until November. Wow, that's uh, that's not that far away. It's three months, three and a half months. So they could drop several of these every couple of weeks and that would time up perfectly. So if the evidence does come out, what's gonna you know, what would be the next step some sort of like grand jury would have to be put together, a Congress would have to act, or what can be done with real evidence, assuming real evidence is gonna be exposed here. Well, you were talking about, like, you know, really getting in there and changing the way things are. And Bill Poulte got signed as acting OD and I right, so there's no Senate confirmation for that, but he has acting powers and he's been in the intelligence community for many weeks firing people, long time people because they've built the file on them, and it's a human resources action. It's not subject to review. We know that now with the slaughter decision, right, So first they waited for the slaughter decision. There's no question that the president has power to fire people, and Poulte has been in there doing it. And when you go through and purge like that, there could be people that knew what was happening was wrong all along that would like to continue to have their job, and they're probably cooperating now. Pulte is going to stand behind the President when he makes his statement tonight. And hope a lot of the Rats would turn and another generally, I think of the Democrats perpetrating the fraud, which I'm sure a lot of it is just home grown. But I I'm hoping that there's evidence exposed and that Trump talks about it tonight of foreign black ops suspected and elections being stolen by way of foreign interference too. Well, that's what it's going to be about, and how foreign intelligence agencies might have assisted actors in the United States. But well, we'll see how well they covered it up, right, But the pattern that shows that trying to cooperate with Trump's political opposition to bring about the twenty twenty deal. I mean, that's what tonight's about. And there's got to be Democrat think tanks right now, just conjecture what could it be? What could it be? What might they say? What might they say so that the instant Trump stops talking, they can show up on cable and start to say that, you know, refute it, all right, so watch out when that happens. And I'm going to check out the the anti Trump cable sources tonight. I'm sitting and watch them and if they're saying no evidence, no evidence, no evidence, they just completely repeat that slogan. They start saying that constantly during Obama's turn, right, no evidence to show when they say that, I look at that and be like, Okay, that's what they're telling themselves. That's not me. I'm not agreeing with that in the least that if that's what they're telling themselves, watch and see what DNN talking heads are telling themselves tonight, and it probably tells you more to the truth of what Trump comes out with than anything Trump himself says. Besides saying no evidence any other options they may come up with, would they even try to say that Trump's trying to frame them or anything like that. You think they would go that far. If they get into that or they look absolutely flabbergasted, then you just, again judged by their reactions, if they have a talking point well thought out for every single thing Trump's comes out with, then there's they're staying ahead of him. And remember, if the theory is correct, there's tens of thousand members of the Chinese Intelligence Service sitting there for months knowing exactly what they did, helping feed talking points to refute it information war. Certainly, how about we hit the dashboard. I mean, I can talk about several of these topics for quite a while and we would just forget about the dashboard, honestly, So how about I hit the dashboard as fast as I can, and then we come back to it. Yeah, yeah, call him too. Let her rip, Let her rip, all right? SHTF level foreign black ops suspected one hundred and thirteen active spies from foreign countries arrested by the FBI. One hundred and thirteen spies foreign A preview of the President speaking to the nation tonight here in a few hours, reports of foreign interference going to be joined by the CIA director, FBI director, and as future Dan said, Acting Director of National Security or excuse me, national Intelligence, and DHS secretary. So quite a group. National security Emergency for elections could be declared in preparation to prep the battlefield for October into November election. Supreme Court justices ask Congress for more security funding after more death threats, FBI probes the sudden death of Senator out of South Carolina, and eight indicted in White House UFC event attack plot that June fourteenth UFC event on the White House lawn. Eight have been indicted for the planned attack. Let's just knock out the next column super fast. There's almost no news. Economically, we are seeing Chapter eleven filings bankruptcy for small businesses up fifty percent year of a year. That's a big alarm bell. But most other economic financial news is tepid. Bitcoin has hardly changed it all in the last month or two. Golds down a bit, just at the four thousand mark, down a couple hundred bucks. In the last week, Silver broke below sixty dollars. Let's head to nature and health. Well, it is hot, hot, hot again, a repeat of extreme heat waves from a few weeks ago or hitting in Europe and the United States. The strongest heat dome on the planet to bake American heartland. A little dramatic but true. One hundred plus degree temperatures one hundred and ten plus feels like heat indexes, which can be very dangerous. Venezuela earthquake, forty one hundred plus confirmed dead. We have seven thousand cases of food born illness confirmed or under investigation nationwide, cyclosporasis, world facing male reproductive crisis, infertility and other problems, and a localized fish kill in the Potomac record high temperatures of the river water near Maryland. Hot. Let's head to the first calum to finish the night, first but not last, or actually first but last here Federal appeals Court upholds Illinois ban on modern rifles. Democratic Socialists call for ending presidency Supreme Court in their new platform, so they're essentially saying they can enter the presidency and the Supreme Court follow us Democratic Socialists into the new revolution. Federal election integrity efforts meet resistance in courts. Apple News and Google News are centering the Maine Democrat the state of Maine Democrat Senate candidate scandals for many months under news blatantly censored Apple and Google I'm sure others as well. Then finally we have two straight indicators SHTF black on red actually happening and very serious and dangerous. First, unreasonable search and seizure normalized special council appointed by potus forty six spied on forty four members of Congress, so spying and unreasonable search and seizure by the special council appointed by the last President Biden. Then we have war unconstitutionally waged. YEP, the straits closed again. We have essentially open warfare, although mostly one way. Central Command announces fourth consecutive day of strikes and Iran As naval blockade resumes fresh round of strikes Misslesalvos on the Gulf states, So some of our golf allies, as they're called, argetting, hit some of that infrastructure, et cetera. President says the US to hit Iranian power plants and bridges next week unless the regime returns to talks, a real escalation of destruction. The US launches six consecutive night of strikes. But it's kind of you know, it went from four to six continuing, but there's different degrees of it, of course, so continues to add up. And I do believe that is the news blister for today July sixteenth, twenty twenty six, future Dan where you want. Ahead, Yeah, so about abolishing the president and the Supreme Court, if Democrats, socialists ever even began to pool people into thinking that they could do that. There's no obligation for patriots to remain peaceful. That's fighting words. Yeah, that's uh beyond the declaration of independent like the threshold where that would apply to redress our grievances and unconstitutional et cetera. Can't let it get to that. But I agree for sure there. Kind of resembles, you know, storylines I've heard, you know before twenty twenty elections, like they're going to cancel it all right, it's going to get canceled. These institutions have a kind of a gravity and momentum of their own. You know, fifty states federal elections, you're not going to cancel right, You're not gonna You're not gonna do away with the president of Supreme Court without horrendous bloodshed. It's just the fact. And uh, I guess one thing I would say to relate this to what Trump's we been talking about seeming Lee later tonight. What we started this show with is if what if they do this legitimately with amendment with through Congress, but we find out most of the voting is from illegals that came through in the last couple of decades and or total fraudulent, not to mention all the other media blackouts and just psychological warfare. At this point, if the system is so corrupt that we can't trust our elections, then you also cannot trust any constitutional amendments at this point. Is that fair or is that a little too far? What do you think we'd have to be super majorities in both houses, So if if that level of voting fraud could take place to put sixty six seats in the Senate, and you know whatever equivalent two thirds in the House in a Democrat hands, and we are way way into a revolution already, Like right now, I think the best the best that they could do is twenty twenty. Right, some of those margins, some of those late grafts showing Trump with a lead, and then just a massive boxes of ballots came out of nowhere and pumped over the top. Yeah, that enabled you know, two to eight percent, you know, steal to get that, so that you had sixty six percent of both houses of so much so many other things would have gone so bad by that. Ah, that's where I was gonna go. All it would take, in my opinion, is Trump to be hoovered and the entire economy to crash into a great depression two point zero in the next decade, and all blamed on quote unquote capitalism, really the crony capitalism. This is the Great Reset, as folks probably have heard from many other podcasters with the Great Reset is so take that, take the two thousand and eight financial crisis and COVID and nineteen twenty nine, mix it all up, maybe have a world war at the same time. Plus, as we've talked about Generation coming up, seems predisposed to become democratic socialists at this rate. I'm just thinking that the actual population will and this is our own fault. If we let it happen, our own population could become more agreeable to democratic socialists. So there could be some of that rising tide of that. But then you add in that five to ten percent margin of steel. If we don't stop it and reverse it, then it could happen in the next decade or two. Unfortunately, I really hope not. But that's where I see as very possible to what we're fighting against, one of the main things we're fighting against here on PPH. So I'm inclined to focus then on you know, the part about also a world war. So it's not world war in my opinion, unless you're at this point in history exchanging nukes. If you're exchanging nukes, then yeah, there might not be a president in a Supreme Court or or Congress or or anything. Right like, that's world War three, major war, major conflict, right, major non nuclear combat, high intensity combat in several theaters, especially with you ground troops during a great depression, could be possible and still you know, not go to the point of you know, nuclear war, but that would just be against you know, Iran's in the world, and Cuba's in the world, and and other countries don't have nukes because if countries have nukes, you know that, you know, now we're exchanging them. I don't think you know, Korea doesn't have a you know, the capability of retaliating. They don't have counterstrike on us, but the ones that we worry about, Russia and China, they do. So that But that financial crisis that you're talking about alone, if it could bring in two thirds majority in both houses, then yeah, they could amend the constitution and I have a president in the Supreme Court. Again, I think that's a civil war if they did it. Oh yeah, well agree and that you know, cross that bridge when we get there. But it would end up that and before or that, I would think as well, not to go down too much of a rabbit hole. But we did talk about flock cameras recently, and I've seen a ton of news about flock cameras getting chopped down and American flags being put there in place. Not publicly advocating that on air here, but it's become quite the news item. And you know, that spirit of rebellion and just you know, you know, things are so nice like they are right now relative to a total economic collapse, imagine that spirit of rebellion. It would not go very well for anybody, really, but definitely not for the tyrants. Let's heat map this thing, or talk about the heat map in you know, in a general frame, zoom out. We got black on reds, but they're not the most serious of types. Black cops is. We'll find out more tonight, but the rest of this is definitely elevated, definitely hotter than usual and most summers, the threat of domestic street violence is part of the equation when you see it hot and that's not even here right now, right. Right, Hey, I saw this explanation. I'm not going to pretend I came up with it, but all the funding cut to the NGOs, right and there was a lot of money in organizing going into BLM riots and even before back in what was it twenty sixteen or seventeen, those set of riots, that was a lot of money and organization required to hit that critical mass, especially like for happening every single city, not just the city where it happened having one instance, so that could be an explanation. It's also been hot as heck, maybe people are too hot for the protesters. I don't know. And another thing is Washington, d C. When there's major protesting in Washington, DC, it gets replicated in other cities. It has since Vietnam. Right, big, big, big protests in d C back in the day, you know, and they were peaceful, right, not like they would be today. So with the National Guard on the streets of Washington, d C. It's just a massive lesson learned from Trump's first administration. Right, that's a great point as well. Don't let the spark go because you know, I don't wanted to spread throughout the entire nation in this case. Here's another question for you or my thought. You know, a lot of the just think of who supports the Democratic Party here. A lot of them are boom boomers, and a lot of them are the caring type of boomers who they're not gonna be violent, and that's a good thing. I don't want anybody to be violent. But they have go out there and they do their little picketing, and that's great, you know, protests, but they're not gonna burned things down. Right. Then you have another section of the Democrat voters, and that would be guess what, illegal immigrants and the voter fraud. That's a good percentage of it. And they don't even care about this stuff. They're just getting the free benefits in exchange for their votes. So they're not gonna go burn stuff down unless they get hungry and the snap benefits and that's a whole other level. Then who else is there to protest and burn stuff down? Right? That's like most of the Democratic base. I don't think anyone's actually ideologically pissed off enough to go and do the dirty work of the Democrats right now unless snap benefits get turned off. Like I said, actually I think that might be in the speech tonight because I saw other reports that I didn't see enough substance to them to add them to form black ops. But apparently, you know, Cuban organizations organizing leftist groups in the United States, that could be part of what's disclosed. That's not as concrete as you know, Beijing directly interfering in the outcome of our elections, right, but Cuba, Cuba's black ops the United States. I'm gonna see a little bit more about what effect they might have had we could get some headlines there, and they're the ones that are going out and helping stand up antify units. And you know, it's the multi prong attack, but it's just different tentacles from the same octopus. But the octopus has been speared with a trident. That was one of the best things of this whole administration was in my opinion, certainly Doge and how quick that was and how the funding and USAID was taken away and the ramifications, and I think that's a big part of it. Not the only thing, but that took you know, that hurt the octopus. It's still got some some mte to it, but we're not seeing those riots. And there's gotta be reasons for it. I'll come back to you. Gotta think feel and carb. We're having enough just having it up and siding with Trump and bringing Palenteer technology inside the government. That's how they found everything at USA I did. They just did intelligence, war fighting intelligence technology, mapped it all out, saw all the connections, drew it all together, and absolutely shut it down. And that's what's staring at you know. You know, George and Alex Sorops. They can't spend a penny without it being treated as like terrorist funding. It's watched like that now. Yeah, they have to register as foreign agents a lot of these things now, or they've been forced to, or they're getting paperwork like under the Foreign Agent Registration Act. Is something similar to that. I've seen a few. I've seen a few and so battles, not one. I know it takes a while. That was something that was really glad that happened so quickly. Some of this other stuff's taken longer. I'm hoping we see fruits of the labor. I'm a I've guard into a little bit. I'm no homesteader, but I know certain certain crops grow super fast. Some take months and months, you know, in this case, maybe years, Bob Hope. You know, sometimes that bountiful harvest is worth the years, sometimes not. I'm hopeful though here future day and I think tonight's gonna be a big one. And if it's like a series of rollouts and planned for the next couple of months, we're in for. We're in for some interesting shows here on p p H. And the folks out there there are like, I won't be satisfied till there. You know that people are frog marks and chains, you know, same thing with Epstein. Files might be disappointed, but to me this is, you know, the dialectic, a very simple generic dialectic taken place right, you. Know, the status quo, the thesis, and then then the counter thesis comes along, and then to get a synthesis, and and and and the way Trump wandered into Washington, d C. The first time around, somewhat naive and took all the blows, everything that happened, and now it's all out there, it's all you know, we've seen the counter and the syentenesis is you know, it's gonna be next to him possible to try it again. You know, if he comes out with facts that ultimately no no one can refute, we'll see if he has them. That was where I was gonna go. Yeah, we're definitely on the same path tonight. Is all that really matters. And all we can control is that it doesn't happen again. I hate to say that because I want the people who in the past who perpetrated this fraud to be held accountable. But that's like the sunk cost fallacy equivalent from economics, Like, really, I can't do anything about the past. We need to just make sure it doesn't happen again. Right, That's that's the sort of compromise where you can't we got to focus on that more than anything. I guess, right, Well, that's because that's why January sixth, twenty twenty one, that's why it mattered. Because when Congress passed the resolution that the vote was valid, right, you know, the electoral college, when they when the Congress accepted the electoral college, it was done. That was it. Anything else after that would be unconstitutional because that body did do its role and certified the election done at that point Biden won, but never putting all this out in the open, so that next you know, January, when a new Congress is coming in, Congress doesn't have to certify elections that are shown to be stolen. Right, and and Trump Trump's doj doesn't you know, they'll they'll take it to court, but that won't matter because courts will do the same thing they did last time, and you know, say they have no standing or make a decision. So many months later, it's what Congress does it Congress certifies it and making it impossible for the cheating to happen again in this midterm. And then two years from now again, is really all Trump get hoped for. I want to parlay that into a few decades of positive consequences. But yeah, just one or two election cycles is you know, I don't want to get greedy. I'll just I'll settle for that for now, one election at a time at this rate. But no, I totally gave where you're coming from. Man, only two hours to that speech. I'm actually I'm not going to say I'm like excited or looking forward to it. Per sex is so important, but it's also like, hey, this is appointment viewing. And the ICE is gonna target illegals voting big time, right, It's probably probably gonna get announced tonight. So if if illegals or people that are not citizens, aliens who are carrying palettes that had dead uss and names on it. I don't know how it always worked out. There's so many permutations, but Dennis Desuza's movie Two Thousand Mules lays it out really really well how they did it in twenty twenty. If that becomes impossible, then you know, we got the elections we need. Trump might you know, the Republicans might still lose both houses. They usually you know, the party and power usually does in the midterms. But if, if, if they can somehow cheat in broad daylight again and nothing could be done about it, you know that that would be a dangerous outcome this fall. Oh, that would be That'd be horrible because if we we still can't turn the tide, now, when are we going to do it? Like he got this much momentum and hopefully political clout that actually be able to make a difference and prevent it, even if temporarily for a few years. If they can't do it this time, they're not going to do it, be able to just randomly be able to do it in twenty twenty eight? What else interested you on the. Let's see here, let's see here FBI probing the sudden death of senator will have to just look at that quickly, obviously, Lindsey Graham died, had visited Ukraine, came back, died almost Let me ask you a question thereafter, Yeah. What are the chances you're ever going to think about him again on this show? Hopefully not much? Yeah, I hope I'll never have to think about her, to look at him ever again. Unless he was a sad by a foreign intelligence agency, then then we have because I don't care who did it, We just we can't have that right. That's right any party, if it's the constitutional officer, one of our constitutional officers get knocked off in the least by anybody. It's a problem that it's war. Did you see and if so, how do you respond to some initial I guess speculation that he might have actually been killed in Ukraine and they were falsifying the heart attack thing, and that he was actually in Ukraine when he and he got blown up because apparently the hotel he was at and the factory he visited may have been hit. Did you did you've run that down? Did you see any of that? There witnesses of him being alive in the United States, So okay, I think that's kind of fantasty. But a handshake from somebody with some kind of substance that has been honed to cause a heart attack seventy two hours later if you didn't know to wash your hand, sounds pretty plausible to me. I think. I think when Snowden did what he did, there was reports of people in the Deep State saying that he needs that kind of handshake. Right, they can get rid of they can get rid of him, and no one would know, right, and Trump's already come out and says a waste of time. So that could cut three ways. Either he knows damn well that was just a heart attack, or he knows that another superpower did it and we can't fight him. So you got to just you got to just accept the loss and conceal that information. That would be very bad. That'd be major escalation. Obviously, somebody's got JFK too. Oswald was in the Soviet Union. Yeah, but there wasn't all this activity in Iran and in Ukraine and just all I feel like it's pretty rough. I guess it's pretty tough in the sixties too, but oh, they were much. More afraid to fight back then. Yeah, that was the problem. If there maybe people aren't afraid enough to fight right now, and then that would actually start the fight. Well, you can jet over to Moscow and ask Lamir Plutin why he thought it was a good idea, But no, they decided to do it, and then you know, the logic holds it. You know, we're not going to risk nuclear war for Ukraine, so yeah, we would pro Poland or Romania. So I think they know where the line is well. I suppose that if I had to choose one, it'd be that he actually died from a real heart attack. His father died when he was sixty nine years and Lindsey Graham was seventy one. I don't know, for what it's worth. Hopefully it was a heart attack. If not, then we're in a much more serious situation. But whatever, Hey, we are our prepper broadcast network should be prepping like an EMP is going to go off over your city tomorrow. Anyway, That's I don't know. James Walton actually did a podcast about this about a month ago that maybe we're getting a little too soft as preppers. Maybe we need to get our edge of extreme back a little bit. What say you there? I don't think you have to be an emotional turmoil about current events the prep right, true. So so if you have a plan to stick to it, right, Dave Jones, improve on your position daily, right, and you know, at certain points, if you've done it to the best of your ability, there's maybe not as much to do every day. I'm setting aside at home centers, right, you're living off grid, obviously, that's that's just that's a totally different way of life that's highly resilient in that circumstance, but you're living it. But if you're not a home setting prepper, time to get it's time to get to it like a plateau, a terminal status and maintain right. I like the way you put it there. It's you don't want to get too high or too low. It depends where you are in your prep and your goal. I guess too, like you said, and then. The skills building, right, there's always other skills to build, right. So that's the majority of this network, lots of people talking about the skills needed to do this, to do it all yourself, survive in a calamity. But uh, I'm not I'm not sure. I'm not wishing for bad news to get everybody motivated. That's this show is about, you know, important the way it is calling balls and strikes and tonight it's hot, it's hot, hotter than usual. But there's no crisis here, right. I maybe not right here, but there's just so many tinder boxes that could flash overnight that we should be prepping. I like, you know, you got to be able to hold multiple thoughts in your head is the goal for what we do specifically, analyzing the news. We should be somewhat level headed, I would say, for sure for actually budgeting and spending and for your preps. I think you also should be more methodical. Otherwise you're gonna spend way too much money, buy a bunch of crapy you don't need, and then realize you screwed up down the line. But there's still kind of that undercurve or for your kind of for doing your chores of prepping, whether that's inventory and something or practicing your skills. I don't know. I feel like it's helpful to have a little bit of a fire under your ass to do the things that are a little tougher, but you know you got There's different all different aspects. It's whatever motivates you best, I suppose, but. UH think like like you're trying to cross an eight highway right and you gotta wait wait, and then you know, now now is the lull. There's no traffic right now, so you'll make the crossing, get get the work done, get the preps done now. But when you're crossing an eight lane highway, you're running because you know there's cars coming on it fast. Right to see map dashboard, there's no, no, no, no, nothing out. There's no major accidents, like it's clear, it's relatively say, but this lull might end that that's how you, I would suggest, get motivated, you know, having having calamity breaking out to get you motivated. Something about that says that you know that's not optimal. It's not it probably is not. Uh. We love analogies. My analogy would be to a boxer or an mm A fighter who says, I gotta hate my opponent, I gotta be pissed to train. But then when they don't hate their opponent, or they get a little more comfy in life because they're making millions, then they kind of fall off because they still don't have that drive. So you can't fully rely on that. But sometimes a little spark of that can help a little bit at least my experience getting off my ass. I'm trying to self motivate myself here. I need to do some skill building and some inventory of my trips in the next month or two. Yeah, just get in there with your gear, turn on Eige of the Tiger and pretending I go beat mister t again or something. Essentially, I will say this, I've been kicking ass on the range. I've been putting a lot of range time in so I've been building that skill, but other skills deteriorating because I haven't been using them. So I don't know. It's always a balance. But yeah, there you go. There there's my prepping PSA for the show. I think it's you know, it's question do you need to be reactionary to motivate or can you be proactory? I'm avocating for the pro act, you know, you know, you know, talk the holes and stitch the sales when it's good weather. Right there you go, there you go. And I I'm not seeing the best weather. I'm not seeing total destruction on the horizon necessarily, but I do. This heat map is pretty dense and at high levels, and we haven't been quiet this summer, and we haven't been super quiet this year, and I don't think things are going to get quieter. So hey, I there's enough out there to be motivated to prep I suppose in the end, because there's a lot of activity. Man, it's not a quiet news news week this week by any means. So too want a scenario where it can spiral badly out of control, and between now and November whatever gets announced tonight. If that provokes rioting essentially in any shape or form, then you know it might be used as a pretext for spending bossy commentantas and really locking down those elections, and and and and you know what's going to be said if we do that right and you know that, you know, could Trump win by doing that? It all depends on how big that fraud is you think that's built into the system, If it's if it's if it's giant, it's if it's underestimated right now by those of us that think twenty twenties election was stolen, then this scenario could you know, play out in Trump's favor, but it could it could repulse a lot of independent voters. All right, I want to head to other foreign spies and other foreign interference ready for this year. Here this is intellectual property and other things that are stolen military secrets, I'm sure, of course, but we're talking more commercial intellectual property here. Up to or between four to six thousand dollars per American family after tax worth of intellectual property. Now, every American family does not necessarily own that. A lot of it is some of these super corporations. Butay, we don't want them stealing American technology regardless, and it doesn't negatively affect American families in the aggregate when the technology we put so much R and D money effort into ripped off and manufactured at ten cents on the dollar. Therefore, our domestic production cannot compete with China that just pollutes the crap out of things, treats their workers badly, and really now they've had to somewhat improve their pollution standards, somewhat improve their worker standards, but their number one competitive advantage is stealing this ip future Dan. So this is actually one of the most important things besides energy, the energy war with China, but the next is the ip I. Honestly think most American companies don't protect it well enough. Now, that's a cost. So so either way, when you got somebody stealing when you have degeneracy, almost every solution has a cost to it. And you're not going to just ask the Chinese to stop and and and the and then you won't have the problem, right, So the cost is built in and it always gets passed onto the market, right. One hundred percent, either because something's just not available to you and you don't even know that you don't have it available to you, or it's so much costly that was never produced, or they couldn't beat China, so some other company didn't even produce it for you. That's the edge case, but there are literal price implications and shortages as well well. Uh, two ways to hit it. Number one, I think finally, with Trump in the last decade, let's just even go back to his first term. Certainly this term too, with tariffs and more tougher talk, but even back then he was calling out China big time. But before that, going back twenty thirty years, they just let China do this and really encouraged them. By the time he gets to Obama, it's just like, yeah, whatever, have at it. So that inertia of multiple decades of China is becoming even more efficient at stealing our technology and outproducing our industry with that stolen technology in different ways. Yeah, that it takes a while to reverse course on that, and Trump's trying to do that kind of regulatory so to speak, and with treaties, tariffs, blah blah blah blah blah. But what you said is super important is our own companies, aren't some of them are almost complicit with and I'm not gonna say complicit, but they might be you know, full of spies themselves, like the Apples and the Metas of the world. They might as well be Chinese companies in my book. So that's a whole other level of it. But all I hope is that you know, the really high tech in the military type of tech is being kept very well guarded. Maybe you give us a little bit of information on that to either assuage fears or double down that maybe China is taking our you know, taking our best weapons too. Hopefully that's not the case. What do you think, Yeah, I think the apparatus is focused on foreign threats orn you know, in the United States in a way that it hasn't been since the Cold War ended right until the end of the eighties early nineties, right KGB serious ongoing thing. Constantly we might be peeking back. Dependulum must swung back in the you know, let's just say the difficulty level for you know, intelligence services to operate in the United States at least you know, you know, invisibly. Past that high water mark so to speak. Ye, how easy it is? Yeah, all depends on the next election, right, How hard or easy. It gets who's cooperating with that happening and who's trying to oppose it, which again I mean that should drive your vote as a patriot right there. The party is going to let it happen. It has to be withheld from power, very little health matters. Yeah, let it happen on purpose, or even facilitate it. I would say Republicans just let it happen from laziness and some corruption, but the Democrats actually facilitate it and try to make make even more money and corruption off of it. So in that case, I suppose got to a Republican game theory. I hate it, but it's it's true. All right, we got a few minutes left. What do you want to hit you? Where do you see the economy going? There's there's not a lot of dangerous indicator news tonight, but that doesn't mean there isn't things to talk about in the economy. We had the FED chair by the way SETI buying and this week I sat and listened to some of it, and uh, catching a lot of questions about constitutional powers. Most Democrats leading leading on this mirage that there's stead independence and a lot of Republicans making it pretty clear that if Congress changes mind, the FED could become something else. Whi's true, this old this old monster of Jekyl Island, you know, outside of any control kind of institution. Now it's the third bank the United States. Congress can change it in a vote tomorrow. And Warsh heard that, but only from one party. So I wanted to react to to Warsh, what's happened on, you know, with the bed and you know, more broadly, if shoes are going to drop in the future, you know, what what do you see? Where do you what bubbles you see popping? If it pops, great question. There's not much going on in economics. It's a good time to reassess, potentially, see what's can happen. First, they want to lower rates, for sure, they just they can't until the strait is fully open for a prolonged period. I don't think they can be a little lower rates. They might even have to raise rates. And I just want to bring that up because we're still paying a ridiculous amount of interest on our debt every year. And if interest rates go up, that don't only increases let alone the consumer debt, the corporate debt. So if interest rates blow out with this huge debt load, Like I don't know, I don't see any economic plan fixing that. So that's the that's a risk, a couple of things that the Fed wants to do to fight that they're doing, I think they're doing. What they should do is just like hold it where it is right now, because if they raise rates that would be horrible, but lowering it could lead to some nasty inflation. We can talk a little bit about revaluing gold and will they revalue gold on the balance sheet and or move to some sort of hard money or try to play some you know, some crypto play in the next two years before the presidential election. I don't know if that's enough though, because the debt load is just so much larger, larger than I mean, all the Golden Fort Knox, even if Goldo's fifty thousand dollars would be like not even I don't have the numbers in front of me, but it's like one year, two years worth of debt spending. So the only way out is to outgrow the debt spending or or raised taxes which will destroy everything. We're cut spending, which will start riots. So which pick your choice. We've got to outgrow. That's the only way. How do we do that is a question, right, right? And the growth numbers apparently are you know, sub two percent, right GDP. So yeah, I don't I can't tell you what's going to fall apart, what's going to happen. I still think that the people that could let it fall apart on purpose powers that be, the anti Trump powers that be of the financial world, and they're out there, right. I'm not sure they're entirely just this Games Bond villain ish partel of no Secret Society doers, but you know there's there's people of that sentiment with a lot of money. And I said before, they're gonna do it this time next year, start looking for it because they can't give Trump enough time to learn how to use the powers available to him to fix it. And he's probably anticipated this, so you know, you know, they gotta they gotta snap it on him, right, he's gotta He's gotta hit him when he has no chance. He's a counter puncher, so you hit him when he doesn't have time left to throw another punch back. If if it's planned, which which is why if economically everything starts flying a part of the seams this year. I think it's because they really did lose control. Everybody lost control. Right, especially if it's some odd time like next spring or like February next year, and it just flies apart that it seems almost out of nowhere. Uh. The ongoing thesis I've had for quite a while is the next major financial crisis, they'll be able to bail it out one more time. We'll see if that's the case. But until or unless that next crisis happens, you know, there's gonna be more and more pressure because there's gonna be more and more debt, and the real GDP compared to the debt level, I mean, it's not gonna be getting better at this rate. It seems. I hope that we've talked about the AI revolution helping with a lot of productivity, et cetera, et cetera, But I don't know. I think just so much damn government spending, so much waste, and a lot of headwinds. But there is that American innovation where we can outgrow to an extent. But I don't know if American people aren't gonna take the medicine which the politicians never want to try to feed, you know, give us their medicine because they ain't gonna get elected off of that. I don't know. I feel there is a moral component to this, where America has been a bit wasteful and way with outside of our bounds, out of our means the last decade, two decades, three decades, who knows a while, and we don't come to terms with that. There's no like easy way out necessarily, so they can monetize the debt, you know, or have a reset this and that. But yeah, expect a big haircut on your four oh one km pension at least. Then. Yeah, And we're coming back to a consistent theme over the years on Patriot Power Hour, kind of kind of getting close to the subject. So I'll bring it up. So you speak of these things in a certain inevitability, and I approach future danger always, you know, did in the economic sphere and everywhere else is sort of a test of let me, let me see what's happening now, let's judge by what facts we know now, right, what state we're in now? I don't know if financial collapse is inevitable because of debt, right, and and to finish a still laden with metaphors. I'll give you another. Although although although nations aren't people, they don't they don't have a you know, you know, a lifetime and then have to die, right, So that part of the metaphor doesn't work well. But if if if you were our nation and you had just all all manner of you know, horrible debt, right, like like you declare bankruptcy and you have nothing left, and you still owe debt that couldn't be resolved by bankruptcy, like by the hundreds of thousands of dollars, right, you can still win the lottery tomorrow, pay that all off and be perfectly comfortable in a significant way. Is AI That lottery is AI plus micro nuclear power generation and an economy that exports the most oil in the world, and you know other other breakthroughs that are probably being employed by military secretly but have yet to you know, been been brought to the civilian economy. Are those lottery tickets out there for the USA? Well, I'll tell you what I don't know. But if there's a country on Earth that has the opportunity to win lotteries, we we we still have an economy, structure and a populace. It's that thinks that way have a shot at that. And what I'm seeing with large language models, the efficiencies they're going to be gained. It's it's going to make the Internet revolution being trivial. We got to leave in it. Trump knows that. That's why. That's why we're getting the data centers built. And New York and California can ban them and just crush your own economies by doing so. People move away and they'll lose electoral college vote, So all good for me. Public Connecticut in Massachusetts and Illinois can ban data center soon. It's all if it transfers to real life assets, would be my reply. If there's a lottery ticket in play. It's if they could reduce the cost of electricity to three cents per kilowatt hour for civilians instead of fifteen or twenty cents. Right, It's if they can lower gas to a dollar fifty a gallon instead of three, four or five dollars. It's if they can make organic steak three dollars a pound and a set of ten dollars a pound. Like, if they could do that through real efficiencies, then we got a great chance. Here's the large legwood models. There will be efficiencies, and that's just I think it's gonna end up being well, they call it the K shaped economy, where those who understand and utilize AI become pretty damn wealthy. Anybody who doesn't left behind worse than some one who can't type on a keyboard over the last thirty years. Right, Like, if you don't know how to use computer type of the keyboard in the last thirty years, everyone agrees your options were limited. Doesn't mean people don't make a lot of money and other things where you don't need to use a keyboard. Very true, same with AI. But that's it's kind of like narrow it down even more for the average person for sure. But data centers is a big part. You brought that up like that is real infrastructure, real building. As long as it's not a huge bubble that collapses and these data centers go unused and all that capital cruel and investment doesn't return over the next ten years, I don't I think it will return, but I don't know. That's that's a whole nother you know, vein of. This even you know, I've heard it's compared to the railroads in Great Britain in the eighteen hundreds, okay, and the people who financed and speculated and created a giant bubble all went bankrupt for it. But the railroads were built, they were there, somebody, somebody possessed them afterwards, and forever after they had that infrastructure of transportation. So I don't really care if black Rock falls apart, seems overinvesting in anything to do with AI, as long as we got the compute superpower of the world when it's. Done exactly, as long as it's owned and operated by Americans, not like a toll road that's made by some Australian company and they get all the money, but ten times worse because it's all the data and all the money goes to some foreign company or damn maybe even some rout that would not be good. The money they makes like a tiny fraction of the trickle down effects of the efficiencies from them being able to access the software. Right, I don't care who's vending the compute. It's it's it's who's taking that and now bringing in efficiencies to the economy, which it hazard to say that's inevitable. It's easy to do. It's the easy to see with big data how to make things much more economic and it's gonna you know, for that matter, somebody who can't even type, you know, I can't even read, could probably. Soon be speaking to devices to speak speak solutions that they have in mind back and you know, the meritocracy can flourish, right, The people that were expected to do and create and have an economic impact, they're going to have every possibility. And you know what, they might not even ability to read, they just speak to us. That's that's definitely a positive way future. Dan, I like you class half full and positive, optimistic. I think that's truthful. I said, look at it this way. Neither you nor I went to college when there were these crazy l ms. There's ways to use them where your education could be massively improved by using them, or you could outsource your education, fake it all the way through super easily using these llms, in my opinion, and no one would really know. Eventually it will be found out when you get to the corporate world and they realize you're a dumb ass. What I feel like society could go the same way, Like we could just fake it and come up with stupid memes. And ninety percent of people use AI for a bunch of garbage and they're gonna need basic income and they're gonna become democratic socialists. Like that would be the bad way. But tell me the positive way. I mean you kind of did like people that will be able to use whatever their talents and interests are, you know, without technical expertise. That is a good thing. Yeah, I think it is, as long as it's you know, stays free inaccessible, right, as long as we don't get a government that comes in place and says, just having a chatbot where you can type in any you feel like, upload anything you feel like, and get you know, free and fair results that you can trust is all. They don't take that away, right. Yeah, and that I'm glad you brought that up, because that was a lot more than where the money goes from the province and stuff. I'm way more concerned about the censorship and the ghosts of the machine that might be put in there by foreign or domestic enemies of the republic future day. Yeah, Well, what about our patriots put that into some Chinese models and get that population already plant some seeds in the other direction, right, nice, that's what it's entirely possible. We we got the technical capability all you need is the political will, right, you know, hundreds of millions of Chinese on AI that every once in a while, you know, subverts that regime. I'm all for that, dropping political flyers or you know, flyers over the front lines, but doing it with AI without being detected, just manipulating the output in such a way. I like it. They better be doing that smart people smarter than me, better be doing that on because you know the enemy's trying to do it to us, so I don't pull any punches for sure. All right, these models are all after what happenedd Inthropic. You know, you know, it had an export license thrown down on it. Like if you if you came up with a new rifle design, right, really really, you know, post modern, just futuristic firearm that was better than anything than any military had ever procured. And our government looked at the designs, they could slap classification on that and export controls and say you can't make that, you can't sell that. It's it's in our national security interest that you do not have that free them in economics, right, that's where we're getting the with the models. An anthropic got slapped on them. That very regime it tar you know, controls against exports, and apparently now it's been lifted. But you know, given what the US Department of War did in the beginning of Epic Fury, the targeting, like I think it was thirteen fourteen thousand strikes, where are the videos of the rubble with the people carrying dead babies out from underneath the collapsed buildings. The Iranians could put that out there if it happened. With the exception of that girls' school at the beginning of the war, we didn't get any of that. Right, that's some pretty good targeting. That was AI powered targeting, right, So it's you know, AI is forever going to be a dual use technology. It's going to get control in this way. Well, I'm a little behind on my project of AI analyzing all Patriot Power our archives, but I got about one hundred and seventy episodes ingested out of three fifty four. Today's episode three fifty four actually got some specials including was it the SGT Report that you were referencing earlier? I believe it was, Yes, I have that. Actually I did ingest that. So when you spoke about that, I recall because I had actually read the summary of the transcript that AI looked at. Blah blah blah blah blah. So I need to I'm almost I'm not gonna say I might get it fully caught up by end of the year, but I'd like to kind of as an end of a year recap, not only have a twenty twenty six look at our predictions and have an AI evaluate that, but also our entire geez. Coming up on nine year anniversary in November, they're about for Patriot Power Hour, so pretty cool. You know what would be interesting, at least to me, maybe to you hopefully the audience too, is to try to look at how your and i've my positions on certain issues of evaulved Yeah. Have you ever seen a host of any podcast or any show of any resemblance to what we're doing ever do a retrospective so you're like, this is the this is the way we both used to think, this is what we've seen since then, this is how we think about this now. That'd be so awesome. I see scatter plots and different trend lines in my head now and at least one hundred data points of you know, measured episode by episode, where the AI evaluates me on a few different spectrums and axes. I love it. Let's do it. You know where the next step goes, run in all those episodes through some kind of tool that does sentiment analysis. Listen to the emotion and tone of voice. Yeah, you know that would be part of the truth. That's a whole another layer that's not being analyzed right now because I'm only doing the transcript so that I keep all the MP threes. And someday it'll be simple to just upload five hundred MP threes get analyzed in a second for three cents. Not that cheap and easy right now, but you know, the through put is going to be huge. I agree though that the sarcasm in a transcript doesn't always come across, but I swear these lms are great at transcripts though just the written word. They can they can infer some of your sarcasm a little bit here and there. For example. You know, it could also expose when we have certain indicators that are you know, redundant for a long long time, like black ops, suspected and powerful pedophiles exposed all the epstein that we went through. They are just thinking back when every epstein every Epstein headline that we even get from now on, if you read, did the disdain in the entire ordeal is to come across in your voice. But stuff that you used to get us excited that doesn't anymore. Stuff that didn't used to bother us, that that agitates us. Now. I think that kind of sentiment announces you know, the all the service tests to call they do that. Now they're listening for your mood. You know, if you raise your voice and show anger because you've been on a hold, running around a phone tree for you know, ten minutes. Oh, now they'll let you talk to somebody. Right, let's you raise your voice, right. So that technology that the service tests, they all have it now, I think I think we're talking about within a few years we'll be able to actually do that to our show. Absolutely. I mean it's been three years since we first at least I first messed around with the original chategy to you, not the original, but when we first talked about it on the show, I think I did a couple experiments. I had it write a poem about Bernanky and the banksters. It was pretty funny. Lah lah lah. It's got like a thousand times better since then, so I can only imagine three years more from from here. So I put a lot of work in to try to get a lot done now. But there's a lot of stuff where I'm like, something that might take me fifty hours now might take me two hours and a year. So like, what should I do with my time? It's uh, it's a weighing process. It's it's tough. Keep on prepping. Yeah, Bernake hikes, I remember doing that with you. Yeah, the Burneki hikes. Well, hey, prepping now, you almost never regret doing some prepping now in the future, you know, spend wisely, don't go bankrupt, don't sell all your assets and buy a bunker because it might be a few years till the apocalypse. You might want to keep your job for now as an example. But on the other hand, like that's something you won't regret. And I don't know, building things in real life is not going to accelerate five x every year compounded for the next several decades like AI might. So like being a homesteader, that's gonna be a good investment just for a lot of reasons. I think, Yeah, we'll be back Thursday next week, six pm ish. We'll be around that time, and I just want to push that out to our audience for constantly coming back, having a listen and hopefully, you know, getting their thoughts provoked. You know, we're not trying to doctrinate anybody to any rigid point of view other than basic American patriotic principles. So that's what you get when you listen to Patriot Power. I want to thank everybody, Thank my co hosts, then the Breaker Banksters for being here every week. And if we get lucky, in my opinion, there'll be even less news to talk about next week. Right there we go. We'll hope for the best, prep for the worst. Great show featured Dan, I'll talk to you next week regardless, good show,
