Red Beacon Daily News 5.26.26

Welcome in the Red Beacon Daily News. Folks. It is May twenty six, twenty twenty six. The US Iran talks are accelerating. President Trump stated the agreement is quote largely negotiated and quote subject to finalization, with both sides signaling a possible off ramp after the twelve day's war seems a little longer than twelve days. Israel weaseling their way in. There is pushing hard for full nuclear dismantlement, which I mean Trump wants it as well. Iran is threatening wider escalation if strikes resume, and we wake up this morning to see that quote unquote defensive strikes have taken place by the US, So we'll see. You know what that is, what that is, and that has to do with you, right. I think the lesson simple right empires and headlines what completely unpredictable. And really when things reach this point, you happen to be the last thing on the minds of the people making the moves. So this is a reminder to build resilience right your path back to stability. It's essential, food, water, comms, community, you name it, right, you name it, because that's what that's what it's all about. That's what it will be about as we head deeper into this world where where what you know, the dominant powers sort of muscle their way around the world. You know, the sin of our time is greed. There's no denying of it. There's no denying the sin of our time is greed, and it adulterates everything. And you know you're watching it in real time. So we'll focus on self reliance and independence. It's gonna it's it is what will float you. It will float you through the tough times. It will give you the confidence, it will give you a peace of mind. Man. And in today's prepper Tech spotlight, I want to talk about portable deployable solar blankets from off grid Tech. Pretty cool, pretty cool high efficiency panels that work in the rain, snow. Uh. They it's basically it's basically a blanket with solar cells. I don't know what the measurement is, but they're they're in blocks, they're in squares throughout this blanket and it can be deployed, leaned against things, laid out flat, folded over things. Right. Obviously, you want to you want to manage the Sun's direct rays with it to get the most out of it, but it comes with controller for r V or emergency use. You compare it with a solid emergency radio like the poc link. Right now, you've got off grid power, you got off grid comms. The pock Link is an amazing radio that we've been testing over at the Prepper Broadcasting Network, and we've used it in a lot of different situations. And while it piggybacks off of the five G cell towers, you know, a lot of naysayers with the pock link are like, well, what happens if all the cell towers are down. One of the things I've been thinking about a lot is if all the cell towers are downe, You're gonna have a lot of different problems. Right, So it's not the only thing you need, but I think it's important to understand how rare that is. And the other thing about the pot link radio that I love is it's a push to talk. It's there's no frequency finding, there's no antenna running, you know what I mean. It's a push to talk. So yeah, check out the deployable solar blankets fool Tech. Like I said, solar does definitely seem to be in its infancy right, no doubt about it. But off grid, off grid life is rebellion, man, it is. The off grid life is tethered to the sort of rebellion and renaissance that we represent here at Red Beacon Media. And yeah, it's there's a lot of innovation. The Prepper Tech Spotlight is going to be a daily segment because there is so much innovation out there. Man, it's it's constant, it's beautiful, it's fun, you know, and and to be honest, we'll probably do some Prepper Tech review some Red Beacon reviews or something along those lines as time goes on, because there's just so much. There's so much, and it's it's worth looking into. But there are other things we need to look into in the tech realm. Right. Our next segment on Red Beacon Daily News, Eyes on Ai, what is Sky going up to now? Chinese chip stock surge today on why Way's latest breakthrough announcements in advanced semiconductors. You remember why Way, right, They used to put out really great cell phones. Man, The y Wai cell phone is the thing Dode you need to get your hands on. Once turns out they were spying on us through why Wai. There's a whole big case spurt case, God bless me, and why Wai was had their hands slapped and they weren't allowed to sell in the United States. I'm pretty sure they're not anymore. But chip stock surge today. Why Wai's latest breakthrough announcements in advanced semiconductors a direct challenge to export controls and a sign that the AI arms race isn't slowing. Meanwhile, Google open sourced its Agent and Execute, a framework making it easier for developers to run autonomous AI agents in production. Robotics and agentic AI systems that plan and act are heating up fast. Man, this it's not enough to do AI and tech news every single day, Like it's literally not. It's everything's happening so fast right in video's upbeat forecast is keeping the AI investment frenzy alive despite bubble fears, governments and big tech are racing to invent AI everywhere from farms to finance. We know that. Look, we know artificial intelligence is a tremendous tool. There's no denying that it's a tremendous tool. It's a double edged sword. The real story with artificial intelligence, guys, is that it's it's just being adulterated by greed. That's it. It's being adulterated taking a technology, and look, there will be a lot of good to come. It's not that. The bad that comes from it is the fact that it's human nature and human greed is adulterating it for gain. And you know it's it's gonna go into war, it's gonna go into and every every spiral out of control will probably largely be able to point back to that, right, So get you know, what can you do? What can you do? What you can do is stay on top of it and understand what the hell is going on. I think that's important, you know what I mean. If you're walking blindly into what's happening with Dai, I think it's a bad move. It's a really bad move. Just it's like drowning, you know. So we're gonna look to bring you that Eyes on Ai segment on a regular basis. But I also want to bring you guys some good news here on reg Beacon Daily News because you know, there's a great story out of the Epic Times how my grandmother taught me to love the greatest country ever. This is a story over at the Epic Times written by Dina bu Night, and her grandmother was Madeline Weishoff van der Walker, who fled Germany and is a great story in the Epic Times about her experience coming here, being here seventy years an American citizen living through You know, she got here in nineteen twenty nine. I think the story says me, find it so good. She learned cosmetology skills, partly in Luxembourg City and partly in Chicago, where she immigrated originally to join the only sibling out of twelve who immigrated before her. Upon arriving in December nineteen twenty nine, listen, listen up during the Great Depression to what she often referred to as quote the greatest country ever, she said, quote the streets were lined with gold compared to where I had come from, And I'm not sure why everyone called it a depression. Immediately, she enrolled in Berlit's English course, determined to become a proficient in her new country's language. She landed a job at a hair stylist shop, met my grandfather, Charles van der Walker, and worked hard to not only send money back to her family in Luxembourg, but also to one day become an American citizen. She went on to you know, be a cosmetologist and cut hair for Kennedy's and Clark Gable and b O'Keefe's. I mean, she really made it in that world, and she was a huge inspiration to the author. I mean, like really basically her driving force. She says, as I look at what was one of her and now is one of my prize possessions hanging on my library wall, her nineteen thirty six certificate of citizenship, I realized that she ignited in me a passion for all things historical. Not only did I want to learn about her history because she was one small fiber in the weave of American history, but I desired to glean as much about this country's past as possible. She also loved to travel and instilled in me an insatiable wander lust. And the more history I can absorb during the journey, the better. It's a great story, man. It's you know, a reminder off of off of Memorial Day, right, what this is all about, like what this American experiment is all about? And not just that, but like for the jaded American citizen out there who's been born in this great place, and lived in this great place and most of the time knows its its ills better than it appreciates all the good that it does. It's great to read a closing paragraph like while she was still alive, I honored her by having her name etched on the Ellis Island Wall of Honor. She honored me with her example in her presence. I never take for granted that I live in quote the greatest country ever when I contribute that to my grandmother, Madeline Wisenhof van de Walker, it's a beautiful story, man, Do you know what I mean? How often do you get to hear something like that? How often do you get to hear a thing as wonderful as that? Now, each and every day that we do Red Beacon Daily News, we're also going to take some time to explore literary grades and hopefully one day we'll be exploring the writings of the Lightkeepers. And for those of you are unaware, the Lightkeepers are those who are brave enough to submit your own great poetry and writing and prose and even paintings, drawings, whatever it is you know we are here. One of our goals here is to inspire a human renaissance in the time of AI, you know, exploding into every industry. We are here to be a reminder that the human experience cannot be replicated by machines. Right, And the best example of the human experience is our art, right, it really is. It really is sort of the filter through which the human experience sifts and then you know, the wider public can explore it and go okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, we are all in this thing together, right, So I'd love to be reading your work in the near future. Currently, I'm reading the work of Henry David Thureaux from a book that everyone needs to read right now called Walden, published in eighteen fifty four. But if you read that book in eighteen from eighteen fifty four, you come to realize, just like you realize with all great literary work, that you know, we humans haven't much changed. I went to the woods because I wish to live deliberately very popular quote by threat Oh by the way, to front only the essential facts of life and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not when I came to die discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life. Living is so dear nor did I wish to practice resignation unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and spartan like as to put to route all that was not life. Henry David Thereau Walden, thank you so much for joining us for Red Beacon Daily News. I do appreciate you. We will see you next time. See you to month
