This is Chris Sims. This is Tom Romago. This is Chuck Pradnik. This is Alex Kraner. This is Daniel Smith. And welcome to the Sean Newman podcast. Welcome to the podcast. Folks, happy Monday.

Oh, man, we had a weekend. Let's, we'll get to that here in a couple of moments. First, silver gold bull. Gold. It is skyrocketing. Government, not so much. They're kind of plummeting. And, you know, historically, gold has been a measure of trust in government.

And that is why silver gold. Bull has a special offer just for you, the S&P listener, that is, on quarter ounce gold coins from the Royal Canadian Mint. For anyone looking to protect their savings with physical gold, these low-cost fractional coins are a great buy. You can text or email Graham down in the show notes for details and make sure if you're on silvergoldbull.ca.com, whichever side of the border you're on. If you're doing anything on there, you're buying anything, make sure to reference the SNP.

And it helps you get a lower price. It's going to help me, and it's going to help them know that you find folks are paying attention. Calrock, your trusted partner and surplus oil field equipment, leading supplier of new used and reconditioned oil field production equipment here in Canada. But that's not all. Tank fabrication, new and refurbous fluid storage tanks, trucking, pumpjacks, and demolition. Go to calrock.com.ca for all your oilfield needs. When it comes to firearms, you know, optics, accessories, et cetera, we're talking Prophet River. It doesn't matter where you're sitting at in Canada.

They can get it to you. They specialize in importing firearms from the United States of America. But if you're in Lloyd, stop into the Prophet River location. I haven't told this story a while, but once upon a time the location therein was this brand new bar. Then it went under and it sat vacant for forever. And Profit River bought the location and is now this beautiful gun store in there. So you can stop in Lloyd. I highly suggest you do.

You see Ed and Clay and team and just see that, you know, the great facility it is. But then the other thing they got going on is they got consignment. So they're selling used firearms for other people. So you can find a ton of different bargain buys. I mean, you know, how much are you saving? That's up to you, the expert, to figure that out. Regardless, it is there. They got consignment guns for different people.

So you can go online. You can look through that. And I just, no matter where you're listening from in Canada, folks, they can get it to you. That's what they do. So just go to Profitriver.com. They are the major retailer of firearms, optics, and accessories serving all of Canada. Windsor Plywood. It was actually just, we had our first U-7 practice.

And I got to, I'm coaching Carly Clossens' youngest, Teddy. So shout out to the, Klossens and they aren't the builders of the podcast studio table. Maybe while you were watching the live election stream coverage on Saturday night, maybe you noticed the table that me and twos were sitting behind. And that's, uh, um, uh, I got Lisa Mirren calling me. It's funny. I, that would be the lawyer on Bill C-293.

I'll get to that in a second, Lisa, working on, uh, this. I'm getting sidetracked. My apologies. Going back to Carly Clause and Windsor Plywood. They are the builders of the podcast studio table. And last night on live election coverage, you would have saw it in the shot. That's what we were sitting behind. We used the studio last night.

Had a lot of fun. So when it comes to Character Wood, you want something that, like, people are going to walk in and be like, oh, man, where did you get that from? Ah, Windsor Plywood. Stop in and see the team today here in Lloyd Minster, tell him I sent you, and go bug Carly for a bit. Great, well, great business. fantastic food. Now, live election coverage, okay? So Saturday night, me and twos started at 7 p.m. Mountain Standard Time.

We realized that was two hours before any of the results would start to populate. And at the time, we thought that was a poor decision. But it turned out to be a ton of fun. We had, just to put this in perspective, we had somewhere in the range of 10,000 plus people tune in and watch. and, you know, in comparison, that's more, we like, blue CTV news out of the water for viewers. We were comparable to global news,

and by, you know, the numbers last, two nights ago, I guess, it was about 60% of CBC. And me and twos are like two, you know, Western Prairie boys that don't live in BC. Heck, we're just, you know, and we just looked up, good people to bring on and this is what we're going to do we're going to give you news coverage that

doesn't suck we're going to have some fun and there was a lot of laughter last night it went off the rails multiple times but it was well received we had a ton of people tune in and when it came against you know the legacy media the regime media we were blown it out of the water so the next time we're doing this and we're hoping we can do it again uh blowed out of the water that is is Saskatchewan October 28th, Toos is back in studio. We are live covering the next Saskatchewan election. We're excited about it. We're going to have a huge lineup coming in for that one.

It's a Monday night. And I don't think there's going to be anything really on your telly that you're going to be like, oh, I think maybe I'll just tune into this. Tune into this, folks. Share it far and wide. And let's see if we can't just smash the other statistics. Grab on the CBC's high-nobiles. and and and you know just mangled it but either way it was well received thank you to everyone who

tuned in and to everyone who made it what it was um the cornerstone forum it returns may 10th 2025 okay you got uh here's what you got is that the wind sport in calgary keynote speakers so far confirmed tom loongo alex craner chuck prodnick and we got two guest hosts chris sims from the canadian taxpayers federation and tom bodervix from palisades gold radio That is going to be a ton of fun. There's going to be more details on that soon, but right now that's what we can confirm. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Okay. Substack, you should sign up. It's free. Emails coming out once a week.

on Sundays right now and that is a week in review so go do that down the show notes that's what I got for you day I'm over seven minutes I had to talk about a few things and well let's get on to that tale of the tape he's an American author who graduated from the University of Virginia in 1979 with a degree in Russian studies he's a former Navy seal I'm talking about Matt Bracken so buckle up here we go Welcome to the Sean Newman podcast today. I'm joined by Matt Bracken.

So, sir, thank you for hopping on. Thank you for inviting me. You know, I was saying to before we got going that when your name came up with Lieutenant Colonel Stephen Murray, I had a bunch of Canadians specifically reach out and said, hey, you should get Matt on. I used to read his books, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And I chuckled. I said, actually, I do have him coming.

on. And so I know there's a whole bunch of my audience who knows who you are, probably follows you right now. But for maybe the rest of us that don't know a whole lot about Matt, maybe we could just start there and then, of course, get into things of today. Well, I was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1957, but I've been blessed with really good health. So even though I'm, you know, a boomer for sure, I'm still pretty physically active. You know, I still go out, do some pretty hard work, physical type stuff, aerobic stuff. So I've just been fortunate in that way. I went to the University of Virginia on an NROTC, a Navy ROTC scholarship.

and that obligated me for four years of naval service. And I wanted to do something more interesting than riding a ship or a desk. So I went into Bud's training and made it as a seal. That took me through my active duty and then some reserve time. That was in the 80s and 90s. And after that, I've just been kind of a solo outsuitable. Sider, done some, I built, I built a 48 foot steel sailboat. I've been through the Panama Canal a couple times. I have a great wife that I met in the Navy while we were both on active duty.

I was a Navy SEAL. She was a Navy nurse. And we got married in 1983 and we're still happily married. So I'm a very fortunate man. And with my wife's support, I've been able to write these books and you know I I really consider these like my lasting legacy the printed ones you know the printed ones I get I have you know have them on audiobook on Amazon and on Kindle ebook but what really counts to me are these the printed books because they can't be deleted you know they're out there now in the wild these are these are strongly dissident writings you know that I write about the future that I see coming. And you can write a lot of truth in fiction that would put you on bad lists if you were making some kind of current day analysis and saying what's going to happen. But when you

set it 10 years in the future, you have a lot of liberty and a lot of what I've been writing about unfortunately has been coming true. A lot of what people said, oh, that's hyperbolic. That'll never happen. It's happened, you know, and it's continuing to happen. So I've gotten a reputation for being able to, you know, predict events, not events, but trends and historical long run outcomes. And that's really why my books, I think, are pretty important. You know, they document that people in the 2000s saw what was coming. You know, they, they document that people in the 2000s saw what was coming. You know, that they, that they, there were people who weren't surprised by this. There were people analyzing events and determining where it's going.

And since I have a good track record over the last 15 or so years, that gives me now today a voice to predict what's coming in the next 10 or 15 years, you know, that if I had just popped up out of nowhere, you know, making predictions, who cares? But if I have a track record of predictions that have been coming to pass, then maybe now when it matters, people will tend to listen to what I have to say because I've been right a lot. If you go back to when you, you know, you mentioned the encouragement from your wife. And congrats. I think that's, if my math is correct, that's what, 41 years of marriage?

Am I right on that? Yes. My hat's off to you. I think in a world where. And we met in 1980. We met in 1980 in the Navy. Well, my hat's off to you because I think that's, it's on this side of things on the podcast, it's not extremely rare.

I see lots of married men come through this channel, but still, 41 years is no small feat. Now, if I go back to when you first start writing, and maybe it's before then, I don't know, What is starting to set off your alarm bells, alarm bells back then that you're like, I, is nobody else seeing this? Like, were we going to talk about this? What is it that sticks out to you, Matt, that back then started to happen? Yeah, you know, my first, my first novel is this one, enemies foreign and domestic with the Gadsden flag or the Gadsden snake in the AR-15.

I was, when I was at SEAL Team 2, I would, that was a, one of the original seal teams. There was seal team one in California, seal team two in Virginia. And that was when seal team six was, was commissioned, early 80s. And the seal team six got into a lot of trouble early because they were in kind of a new realm of like a black ops seal team. Okay. Very murky funding. And there were some scandals in the first decade of SEAL Team 6 that were uncovered. You know, not to, there's a lot written on the subject, but I saw that when people get a blank credit card, they're basically handed a credit card with no oversight.

Just go out and the element then the was the urgency. This was following the disaster of Desert One in 1980 when we tried to do the Iran rescue and the planes and helicopters crashed in the Iranian desert and they had to abort the mission. It was kind of a real, we would call a cluster foxtrot. After that, it was determined that they needed some purpose-built special operations teams that would work together, Socom, not just pulling ad hoc groups like, let's get some marine helicopters and get these. these Air Force guys and these Navy guys and these Army guys and we'll do a few practices and throw them into the desert in Iran. You know, they had a plane and a helicopter crash. People

died, terrible fiasco. So there was a great urgency about getting SEAL Team 6 up and running very fast. And part of that was their budget was kind of, you know, unobserved. And people basically did a lot of crimes because they figured nobody knows what we're buying with these credit cards. They had that they had an attitude in the early days that whatever we do is okay. Partly it came from the SEALs sort of a piratical, if you can get away with it, it's not wrong if you get away with it. If you get caught, you're, you're punished. But if you get away with something, sort of a pirate attitude.

But it was taken to a, to an extreme in the early days of SEAL. Team 6, people went to jail, et cetera. And I saw, well, you know, this is really corrupting. You give somebody a blank check credit card, no oversight. Tell them you're going to write your own job description. You're going to, you know, wear uniforms, don't wear uniforms. Claim that your people, that you're not. Whatever advances the mission, just do it. And at the same time, I've always been going back, you know, to high school and college, a very strong advocate of the Second Amendment. And I was always keenly watching the Bureau of Alcohol at the back on firearms. And they were really just walking all over people civil rights, planting evidence,

just, you know, obviously shooting the dogs, doing, you know, doing searches of houses that were just like Gestapo raids to trash the house, you know, to just punish people. extrajudiciously and just absolutely violating the law, going into gun stores and doing things that were not allowed by the law. And it just didn't seem to get any traction that this was happening. And I could just see the trends going out forward. Then it seemed to also be in the FBI, the more I studied it. You know, the FBI, until even today, they don't record their interviews. And, you know, the best advice every lawyer will say is that The FBI comes to your door, close the door, get a lawyer.

Do not talk to them because they are allowed to do pretextual conversations. They're allowed to say, oh, no, you're not a suspect. We're interested in some client or customer of yours. But it's all a lie. But if they can trap you into a lie about saying I was somewhere last Tuesday, but it was Wednesday, that's a 10-year jail term for lying to a federal officer. So extrapolating from what I'd seen at SEAL Team 6, people have a blank check, no oversight. Then it seemed like, well, the ATF and the FBI, they just run roughshod over people's civil rights.

And there's nobody to ride, you know, to check up on them or to keep them in control. So why would they stay in control? They get away with murder. So why wouldn't they just abuse authority? You know, they have all this authority and no oversight, human beings will take advantage. And they did. And then there were some cases, you know, early on, back in the early 2000s, when there was something called Operation Fast and Furious, which was being sold as a narrative was being pushed that most of the guns in Mexico picked up at crime scenes that come from American gun stores. This was, you know, you could tell that it was a narrative because all of the Democrat talking heads, including Hillary Clinton, were using the same

lines that were lies. Like, 90% of the guns picked up in Mexican crime scenes came from American gun stores. They were all parroting the same line on the, when various talk shows, Sunday, the Sunday morning TV shows. And it turned out that this was completely BS. The ATF was coercing gun store owners, literally going in and telling them. we're going to send some shady characters in here and you're just going to sell them the guns. Don't worry, it's part of a law enforcement operation. It's no problem. You know, just comply with what we're telling you.

There won't be any blowback on you. Well, the guns were just wholesale, like trunk loads being given to cartel members. They weren't being, there was no transmitter devices. They were just being pumped into Mexico in order for that. them to be used in a crime by cartel members so that our Democrats could then say, look, our gun stores are out of control. Not saying this was, you know, this was completely the plan. The plan was get Mexicans killed in Mexico to blame the Second Amendment in order to crack down, especially on what they call assault weapons, semi-automatic rifles. And this, this was, you know, there were

people doing pioneering work on this like David Codria and some other reporters. And in the alternate, at the early days of the alternate internet websites, Western rifle shooters and David Codria's sites, other sites, we were becoming aware of what was really happening. And then you turn on the television and the narrative is completely this, oh, 90% of the murders in Mexico are committed with guns. guns just sold across the counter in American gun stores. And that a real, a real capstone of this for me, there was, there was a family in New Mexico

that had a gun store. And the FBI, or excuse me, the ATF was demanding that they do act as part of this Operation Gun Runner Fest and Furious and just give, you know, sell guns over the counter cash to to gangsters and they wouldn't, they wouldn't cooperate. And the ATF and the feds were so pissed at their non-cooperation that they ruined this family's life for years. And there were a couple of attorneys that did pro bono work even moved to New Mexico to represent these people.

And I saw what really evil things that they did, like they arrested, you know, the father and the sons of this family and they had some younger children and told them, if you don't plead guilty, right, we're going to have your kids in foster homes. You've lost your gun store. We seize all your assets. You can't hire an attorney because we froze your bank accounts. You're kicked out of your house. There's a crime scene. You're kicked out of your gun store. It's a crime scene. You have zero assets. You're penniless. And you have to plead guilty and go to jail for 10 or 12 years. Otherwise, your younger sons will also be in jail. And then they'll have nobody to watch out for the family and the smaller children will be put in foster care and sent

out of your control. That's how they, that's how they coerce of false confessions and false pleas of guilt because the, the father will fall on his sword and confess to a crime he didn't commit. in order to prevent his other sons from going to prison, his family being destroyed. Well, over like a four or five year process, these attorneys, pro bono attorneys kept digging and digging into this case. This was the Reese family in New Mexico, R-E-E-E-S-E. And they found out, and this was very important for my understanding, they found out that, number one, the FBI, ATF and FBI out of the field office they're cooperating on this in destroying his family. They were relying on the testimony of police officers like sheriff's deputies,

that the Rieces had committed some crimes. And it turns out that these police officers were corrupt to the core. They had been protecting cartel flights into the New Mexico desert. You know, they'd been like the security for drug flights. When the FBI and DEA caught them at this, instead of charging them and putting them in prison, they turn them into their slaves. They turn them into people that they now own. You will, if we say you're going to testify to this,

you'll just, you'll be in court testifying to it. So these, the FBI was using these corrupt police. Instead of putting the corrupt police in prison, they used them to lay full. evidence against innocent Americans. That was the basis of these men, of this family being destroyed and going to jail. False evidence. And these attorneys gradually unraveled it. And then there's this concept of backstopping. The simplest way to understand backstopping is if, you know, you're in a foreign country and somebody gives you a business card and says, oh, yeah, I work for this company. It's really CIA. You call the number. There's somebody there that answers it and says, X, Y, Z imports, it's really Langley, it's CIA. That's a backstop. Another level of backstopping is the judge, wow, went to law school with the district attorney and is married to the assistant special agent in charge of the field office. They're all working on the same team. They're

supposed to be independent. You know, they're supposed to each one come into this, into a trial situation, you know, just with it with no preconceived notions, no prejudices, but they're all collaborating. They're all like gun dealers are evil. Our job is to crush gun dealers, make examples of them, jail them, put them out of business so nobody will want to be a gun dealer, especially the ones that wouldn't cooperate with us on this fast and furious. So they were all under the table passing the cards to each other to railroad this family. And it took years for finally this appeals process to reach a judge that looked at all this evidence of this collusion. And the family members were let out of jail.

Of course, none of the FBI, corrupt DAs, judges. It just continues with other people. They got out in that case. And this was just all part of setting me on the path to like, you know, writing novels like my first one, that power that's unchecked is going to be abused. And they'll create false narratives. They will build false cases. They will lie. They will use suborned testimony of these corrupt police in New Mexico to put honest, innocent Americans in prison.

They do it. And I just thought somebody's got to write about where this goes if it's not checked. So my first book is a false flag book. You know, somebody shoots into a stadium. And it's blamed on a deranged veteran who got an assault weapon too easily. You know, the deranged veteran is shot by the SWAT team, so he's not going to testify. And Congress then passes the law outlawing semi-automatic weapons. The ATF people that pulled the false flag, they know that half of America is going to think it's BS.

They don't, they're not like, they're not, they don't have like pure hearts and just hate the evil assault weapons. They're just empire building. and they realize that their budget, their power is going to rise enormously if they're now tasked with disarming Americans. You know, their empire will grow. They don't really care. They're just out for it to increase the size and wealth, you know, power of their bureaucracy. And they're willing to, you know, shoot some Americans to accomplish this. And, I mean, things that we've seen lately, you know, with these assassination attempts against Trump,

all of the evidence, I mean, they still are like, oh, we just can't get into those cell phones. We don't know who these guys are. All of the evidence points to both crooks and roof are people connected to the government. I mean, in Ukraine, CIA connections. And meanwhile, the Secret Service just happens to not be on the post at the moment when the snipers on the roof, the Secret Service people are all looking in the other direction. I have absolutely no faith now in our federal law enforcement agencies at all. I think that they're completely out of control.

And anyway, that's what I've been writing about. I mean, the thing in North Carolina, for example, is very parallel to this book, Foreign Enemies and Traders, which, you know, a series of natural disasters in the southeast, the same thing. People can't live in their house. FEMA wants to put them in FEMA camps, so people don't want to leave. Results in conflict between local population and the federal government over whether you can stay on this property. It doesn't have electricity. It's not up to code. You have to leave. You know, that's, I mean, a lot of current events are like tracking my novels. People would say, I mean, look, this one I wrote, this is my second novel. You know,

the southeast turning into cartel land. You know, the southeast has been, and that's New Mexico there where the Reese's work, judges, DAs, attorney generals in these states, many of them have been strong advocates of of separatism for years. You know, from high school, they belong to chapters of La Raza, Ozt, Mecha, which means match and fuse in Spanish. which stands for the student movement for Oslan. You know, so these guys are now judges. You know, they're attorney generals,

and they really don't think their states should be part of the United States. So they, you know, are allowing this invasion. They're not trying to stop it. You know, the Southwest is turning into cartel land, and they're not stopping it. So a lot of what I've been writing about, it just seems like it's unfolding today.

It's a long diet's right, but. Well, it's a good, no, it really brings us up to speed where, I think, you know, like for me, a little bit of your background never hurts. And so I look at it then and I go, okay, what trends do you see now, you know, and if you were writing your next book, or maybe you are, where would you put, where would you put, where we're heading? Just finishing off on that, that's why I, the printed books, matter to me the most because if I'm considered like a dissident writer, I can be taken off of

Amazon tomorrow. My audible and Kindle books can just be deleted. They can delete books right off of your e-reader. They have that power. Every time you hook up your Kindle to like download a book, they can unload a book. So I have no faith that people will be able to find these books in digital format in a few years. But they're out there. There's too many of them on shelves that have been read for them to just like delete it. Like, oh, Matt Bracken, he never existed. What are you talking about some guy that predicted all these things? Because the books are out there. And I think that gives me hopefully some kind of insurance because moves against me would just publicize the books more. I mean, not that I would be able to sell anymore, but they can't be erased now. So,

I think that, you know, what's coming next? There's so many variables leading into this election. It seems like the war in Ukraine may be winding down at the same time the war in the Middle East is winding up. In the United States, it's just unbelievable how the media, left or right media, is just 100% behind Israel. Like, whatever Israel needs to do is great. Like right now, they're celebrating on American media that the killing of another Hezbollah leader or Hamas leader and Winding up, Israel's winding up to attack Iran. We're putting fad missiles in, we have put them into Israel. So now there's like a tripwire force of American active duty soldiers in Israel. So if the Iranians attack, the next thing you know, it'll be, oh, this is an attack on American

troops, we have to go to war with Iran. So that's one huge element is just what's going to happen. Israel has sworn or stated that they're going to attack Iran in some amazing, surprising, unpredictable way. Iran's got by far most of its ballistic missiles still to fire. And, you know, we could see World War III starting in the Middle East. I think that the Israelis, Netanyahu, they're not sure that Trump will maintain this open book, you know, just open checkbook for whatever Israel needs. And when they talk about Israeli defensive weapons, you're primarily talking about 2,000-pound bombs, you know, that destroy an entire city block and crater it.

And we've given them thousands of these 2,000-pound bombs. That's what's turned Gaza into like Dresden, post-World War II Dresden. And they're now proceeding to do this in Beirut and across Lebanon, north to south in Lebanon, dropping 2,000-pound bombs at will. And when American media, it's just great. Whatever Israel needs, that's fine. And my point is that the rest of the world's not getting that take. The rest of the world is seeing another American-made 2,000-pound bomb just blew up another city block, killing hundreds of people.

It's like a daily occurrence. And so the rest, I think that a lot of the world, for example, they are not showing the video from the hospital tents that were where people were burned alive. In the rest of the world, people are, especially in the Arab world, they are seeing that video of people burning alive. you know and it's so so america's uh narrative mindset is going in one direction the rest of the world is going in another so i think that i think that netanyahu and his staff their big play is to get america involved in a war in a war against iran they know that israelis cannot possibly uh attack iran to a point where they can't they can no long longer attack Israel. I mean, obviously, Israel can't occupy Iran. That's a joke. But they can't even

attack Iran to the point where all their missiles are eliminated. And if they go after infrastructure targets like the oil refineries, then Iran will close the Straits of Hormuz and throw the world into a global depression overnight. You know, the price of oil will go up five times in a week. you know, if the straight of, if 20% of the world's oil is taken off the market overnight, which Iran can do, that's sort of the Iranian Samson option, close the Straits of Hormuz. So we're really on thin ice leading up to the election because I think that if Trump is elected, you know, by the by the time he's inaugurated, if he's inaugurated, he may be making peace proposals that would possibly cut off the open blank checkbook for Israel.

You know, no more 2,000 pound bombs to drop wherever, whenever you want. And so I think that there's like a quickening, like when a pond freezes, you know, it's water and then it looks like some shimmery frost is on it. The next thing, you know, boom, it's ice. It just changed states. We could be going from a pre-war, risky, dangerous situation to full-blown war, like very quickly. Israel hasn't announced what they're going to do, but after their pager and walkie-talkie attacks, when Israel says we're going to do something surprising and unexpected, people are taking that very seriously.

I don't think that just taking out leaders is going to change anything in Iran. It'll make them angrier, but taking out, for example, the Iranian power grid isn't going to stop ballistic missiles from being fired at Israel. I think that the fad battery, the Americans, the 100 Americans in Israel, they're basically a staked out goat. The Israelis are hoping that they get taken out by Iranian missiles, which would then bring. bring, could then bring the full force of the American military on the side of Israel into a full-blown war against Iran. And remember, no matter what happens in a full-blown war against Iran, the Strait of Hormuz is closed. Over 20% of the world's oil stops that day and can't be reopened. I mean, we can't even open the Red Sea against the Houthis, right? There's no American

ships going through the Red Sea in like the last couple of months. months, zero. So they can close the Red Sea with the Houthis, with little rockets on trucks. The Iranians have been prepared to close the Straits of Hormuz much more effectively for far longer. And it's a much tougher proposition. The U.S. military of World War II, if it existed, would have to launch like simultaneous Normandy D-Day and Okinawa-level invasion. to go into the the coast of Iran around the strait of Hormuz to to move in hundreds of miles searching every cave for you know a missile on a truck hidden in a cave it's impossible so everybody is playing with fire and it's sort of like bluffing like we're in a gunpowder factory and I'm like sparking my bick next to the fuse of the dynamite better watch out I'm going to light it Yeah, but then the whole dynamite factory will blow up. Right.

That's why you better back off because I'm going to do it. So Israel is saying that to Iran. Iran is saying, you know, if you cut off our refineries, if you shut down our power grid, the last missile salvo that Iran fired into Israel was fired primarily at military bases, like where the F-35s were based, killed, I think, only one person, which has been mis portrayed in the West as a demonstration that the Iranian missiles are not accurate. If the Iranians had wanted to, they could have put all of those missiles straight into Tel Aviv and were high fun. They didn't. They aimed them

at big military bases that were away from population centers. But I think that the demonstration was clear that, because you can tell by how the impacts are clustered, what their average accuracy is. And there's other ways for a country to prove that they hit what they aimed at with a very close circular error probability. So the Israelis know that if there's another huge Iranian missile barrage incoming, the FAD missile batteries will be exhausted in the first 10 minutes. You know, so that won't stop the next 200 ballistic missiles coming in. But what they're hoping is the Americans get killed and then President Biden's

handlers have him come out and say we're declaring war on Iran. Matt, could you break down a thad battery for me? I heard you mentioned it a couple times. I think I understand. But at the same time, I'm like, I don't want to skip over that and get something wrong there. What is a thad battery and the importance of it? Well, think of Patriot missiles that were first rolled out against the Scuds in like Desert Storm in the 90s.

This is the latest iteration and these are designed to be able to kinetically hit an incoming ballistic missile. It has a superior radar, a really excellent radar that can see everything coming in. The Israeli version, the not as good Israeli version, was all used up in the last Iranian missile barrage. American ships have missiles with an anti-ballistic missile capability, but there aren't enough of them. I think we fired like a dozen of them at the last Iranian ballistic missile barrage, but you have to fire like at least two at each incoming missile. And if you only have, I think it's something like 50 missiles in the in the THAAD battery,

then you're, that's two for each of the incoming first 25 missiles. After that, you're just absorbing missiles. So there's a concept like with a gun magazine capacity, you know, Glock holds, you know, 17 or or a revolver hold six. A ship may hold, you know, it may have 48 vertical launch missile tubes, but only certain number of them are the missiles that can be used for intercepting a ballistic missile. Once they're fired, there's no reload. The ship has to go to an allied port, you know, days or week, you know, days away to be reloaded with more missiles. So our magazine capacity is limited. When, when America was to do that, you know, when America was to be reloaded, you know, days away to be reloaded with more missiles. So, so our magazine capacity is limited. When America was designing these weapons, we were thinking in the terms of like a Saddam Hussein firing, you know, a dozen scud missiles, you know, two or three a day.

And you would be able to keep pace with that with our Patriot batteries. And the aside from the magazine capacity being limited, like I said, if you, you know, you could possibly target the first 25 missiles coming in. But what about the next 75? You don't have any more anti-ballistic missile missiles. The next factor is industrial capacity. If we're only making, say, 50 of these missiles a year, because these are extremely expensive, complex systems, we don't have like a World War II level of industry. We're not churning out, you know, B-17 bombers like 10 a day.

That's not America anymore. So if we're making 50 of these missiles per year and in our inventory, we have 200 and we already fired 150 of them, everybody in the world can do the math and figure out, you know, it's like a video, first person video game where, you know, you can see on the bottom how many, how many bullets you have left, you know, what's your reload? Well, everybody can see our reload capacity is getting extremely stretched. So this is just dealing, for example, with the Houthis in the Red Sea. I mean, we flew B2 bombers, the stealth bombers, all the way they come from Missouri. They mid-air refuel halfway around the world to the Red Sea, you know, to Yemen to drop five or six bombs. I mean, this is a token against a rag tag outfit like the Houthis, which don't even control all of Yemen, right? What does that say about us going to war against possibly Russia, Iran, and China?

Even just Iran, like I said, we attack Iran, they shut the Straits of Hormuz. And the rest of the world knowing that we don't have the magazine capacity, our ships don't just respawn missiles. It's not like a video game. You know, respawn missiles. No, the ship's got to leave. It's got to go to Italy. It's got to, you know, go somewhere far away, Dubai, somewhere.

to have more missiles put in by a crane vertically. They can't do it at sea. So the rest of the world sees this. And they also understand our industrial capacity. It took you 10 years to build X missiles and you've just gone through 75% of them. So when China is doing drills like blockade Taiwan drills, you can assume that as soon as we go to a larger war against Iran, we are already. pulling assets from the Western Pacific, you know, carrier battle groups, etc., leaving the Western Pacific uncovered, well, China is going to understand this is our opportunity. We can't let America fight Iran alone.

America may prevail, at least in destroying Iran's capacity to attack Israel. Occupying Iran like we did with Iraq is absolutely off the table. I mean, that's like nobody's even thinking. thinking about that, landing Marines in Iran, unless it's like a quick port raid and out. But China is going to say, look at this, America is now strapped just dealing with Iran. This is our chance to do Taiwan. And I don't think they're going to do a Normandy invasion of Taiwan. I think they'll blockade it. They'll blockade it and we won't be able to do anything about it.

Our ships can't get close enough to Taiwan to resupply or defend Taiwan, because, you know, they'll blockade it, Because all of Taiwan and all the way out to, say, Guam, the second island group, is covered by Chinese missiles now. Our aircraft carriers are kind of like an obsolete joke. Their planes cannot fly as far from the aircraft carrier as the missiles that are targeting the carrier. So the aircraft carriers have to stay so far from Taiwan or other places like that that they're basically, their airwings are. ineffective. They can barely defend themselves. They're totally obsolete platform. The rest of the world gets this. In America, no. In America, it's still rah, rah. We have the greatest military in the history of the world. Whatever America wants to do, we can do. The rest of the world has got a different

message, and they know we're weak. We've already used up so much of our munitions supplying Ukraine and now Israel that if there's a war that lasts more than two weeks, we're out. We're out. of weapons. We're out of our high-tech weapons. We're done. And you can't just snap your fingers and respawn extra factories to start building new missiles next week. Those factories take years to build. You can't just say, we're going from building 40 a year to 400 a year. You could in time, but we won't have that time. If there's a war, it's going to take place so fast, the expenditure of our of our of our of our high-tech weapons will be will be depleted so fast and iran will still have missiles to fire at israel and china will still be in a position to

to blockade and possibly take Taiwan you know russia will take whatever it wants in ukraine i don't think they want to occupy ukrainian speaking parts of ukraine but they nobody will be in a position to stop them at that point America is a very empty America is empty. America is a paper tiger at this point. America can go up against barely the Houthis. We can't even open the Red Sea, but we're going to attack Iran. Does it feel like, you know, I'm spacing on the movie.

It's bugging me that I can't think of it. But when you start talking about magazine clips and like reload time and then how you know how they put missiles back into ships and you know expenditures on trying to shoot them down and and all these different things it almost feels like they're just testing different points of the defense system to see what happens and then monitor how long it takes the ship to go and on and on not to mention well i was going to say not to mention uh sorry man not to mention that uh like watching the ammunition depletion of the united states like they could they probably know all that why i'm sure they know all they do right absolutely it's like a gunfight

and you know the guy's only got one bullet left in his revolver and you're ready to jump out with your lever action which you just reloaded right in the in the american cowboy movie the sheriff with one bullet left you know makes the amazing shot all the way down the street and shoots the guy with the fully loaded lever action but in reality that isn't going to happen but the rest of the world can do the math they can work out the ranges they can They can work out how many anti-missiles need to be fired for each missile incoming. How many does Iran have? Hundreds.

How many weapons capable of stopping those missiles does America have? Dozens. That doesn't work to our favor. Our military, probably since the 90s, certainly, we used, when I was in the military, we were, you know, still planning to fight a ground war. in Europe defending Germany against, you know, armored attacks plus paratroopers, plus bombs by the Soviet Union, peer-to-peer conflict. As the Cold War wound down, our military became an expeditionary military that was basically adapted to smacking down third world countries. It didn't, you know, to Libya,

it didn't matter if we only had 40 missiles because 20 would do the job on the ships there. Or, They didn't have a way to attack the carrier that was just coming in with an easy aircraft range of Libya. They didn't have a way to attack it. So our American, you know, military big stick was basically adapted for at the most like Iraq. So we could we could occupy Iraq. We did. Boom. Occupied Iraq. But then a resistance starts and you're bled. You know, we don't, we could, we could quote unquote, mission accomplished, take over Iraq, but that is not the same as subduing it and occupying it. It's like the Romans didn't ever occupy Scotland. You know, they've reached a point where they built Hadrian's wall. It's like it ain't worth it. We can't do it. The Roman Empire at its

height said Scotland too far. Germany, the what is it, the Turringen forest, what it, it's like too far. America has reached the too far point, and now we're not talking about attacking Libya or just the Houthis in Yemen. We're talking about joining Israel in a total war against Iran. And no matter what happens in that case, the Strait of Hormuz gets closed down, 20% of the world's oil is cut off. The price of oil will go up five times. It'll go from like $70 a barrel to, you know four or five hundred dollars a barrel you're taking off 20 percent of the oil doesn't mean it goes up 20 percent in price it means that everybody that needs oil is in a new bidding war for it it doesn't just mean oh 20 percent is gone price goes up 20 percent 20 percent is gone it goes up

500 percent because of the world that needs oil will be all bidding for the same diminished amount of oil. And I think that, and then, you know, you have in the Israelis, you have a very strong religious element to this war that is kind of new compared to the previous incursions. This has got very biblical apocalyptic overtones to it. You know, they talk about the Palestinian people as Amalek. You know, these are like the enemy nation of Israel and your God says you just got to wipe them out. You know, they use the term amoelect. That means scorched earth, total, total, you know, near genocide conditions. I mean, they're dropping 2,000 pound bombs on houses. And we, and we just say, how many more do you need? And there's no questions asked. The rest of the world is seeing those

people on fire or seeing, you know, square blocks of Beirut just cratered to get one man killing hundreds and hundreds, right? No problem. There's no questions asked on American media. It's like whatever Israel needs to do is fine. So I just feel like we're gearing up for a huge confrontation and the rest of the world doesn't see America as the good guys anymore. You know, we're not John Wayne riding to the rescue. We're, you know, kind of the bully smashing his way around the world and it's almost over. Same thing with the dollar, you know, compared to the bricks. you know, precious metals and a commodity-based currency. They're kind of been a brick summit in Russia.

You know, America loses a reserve currency status. We're toast. We're Argentina with nukes. And Argentina with nukes would be extremely dangerous. And meanwhile, you've got the whole American election cycle coming up, and everything's like on a teeter totter in this country, are we going to go full-blown communist with a president that's not really running anything, just like Joe Biden's been seen all for at least three years. He hasn't run anything.

We don't even know who's running this country. When I was in college, it was still like the Brezhnev era of the Soviet Union. They used to do a thing called Kremlinology. They'd have the big Mayday parade and they'd be standing on the Kremlin wall. You say, well, there's Brezhnev in the middle. You can't talk anymore. They put them on a cart and wheeled him out. But they would look at, you know, the generals and bureaucrats standing on each side of the El Supremo. And then we would discuss who's what, what power shifts have happened. Who's moved closer to the center to next to the leader and who's further away or who's missing?

Who's the new guy? Who's this guy with the scar on his head? Oh, that's Gorbachev, a new guy. You know, that was called Kremlinology. We don't even know who's running America. It's not Joe Biden. It's not Kamala Harris. Is it Anthony Blinken and Majorcas?

I mean, who's running America? It's like a crazy situation. The Russians, you can say what you want about Putin or Iran. They know who's running their country, China. We don't even know who is running America. And anybody that tells you they know is lying. Is it like four people that have a secret, you know, messaging system? and they're making decisions together?

Is it 40? Is there some Rasputin? We don't even know the name of some Rasputin. Who writes the teleprompter for Biden or Harris? Who does that? We don't even know. This is so fraught with danger. It's unbelievable. The next few months are going to be wild

because you have the election in three weeks and then January 20th, 2025, supposedly a new president will be in August. I know Stephen Murray, he doesn't even think there will be a new president inaugurated. There will be some excuse for martial law. That's another reason why there are forces not only in Israel trying to draw Sindwell war with Iran. There are forces inside of America trying to draw Sindwellworth Iran. You know, that would be an excuse to like have total censorship under wartime conditions, social media shutdown.

dissidents can just be rounded up and arrested like we've done in other wars, World War I, Germans, World War II, Japanese, just round up, round up time, total censorship, martial law conditions. You can't have an election in Ukraine because there's a war. Well, you can't have an election in America because there's a war. Or as Stephen Murray says, the conditions are set that nobody will accept the outcome of the election. No matter which way it goes, you know, election night, four days later, two weeks later, each side is going to claim the other side cheated. So half of the country will be totally refusing to go along with the election. And then you possibly put a war on top of that or an economic crisis, say the Straits of Hormuz get blocked and oil goes to $500 a gallon.

I mean, we're in an immediate global depression. It's going to be an interesting few months. Well, you look at, my wife calls me, my wife says, I'm just like Mr. Doom and Gloom, you know, Mr. Worst case scenario. But so far, I haven't been wrong. I mean, you look at it and you go, okay, is there, you know, in the next, like the scenarios that you're painting out there, I go, okay. Donald Trump gets elected. although there is going to be a huge chunk of the Democrats that don't believe it, he's a man that I think that can settle things down in different parts of the world.

Am I wrong in that? Diplomatically oversees, yes. His problem is going to be inside of the bureaucracy of the United States where these embedded bureaucrats are going to do the equivalent of spiking trees. You know, they're not just going to, you're not just going to, you're not just going to flip a switch inside the minds of people that are essentially Marxists that hate Trump and think he is Hitler. They're not going to say, well, he won. So now I'm going to do everything I can to support him and make the economy work, make my department more efficient.

They're going to monkey wrench the internal workings of our country to create a crisis that the narrative will then be sold, that Trump can't lead, that this economic, crisis is Trump's fault that, you know, the riots and the civil unrest, it's all Trump's fault. Yeah, they're going to go total scorched earth. The left will go scorched earth with riots, with economic sabotage, and with internal bureaucratic monkey wrenching. Then what can he do? He can maybe try to make some symbolic arrests of people that are, you know, that are sabotaging the internal government workings. They did the lawfare against him. When he was elected, they came out with the whole Russia hoax. You know, the steel dossier and Trump is a Russian agent. It was total BS. But it

paralyzed him for most of his, it paralyzed the Trump administration from day one right through COVID, which was another form of paralysis. So he did the best he could, in essence, between being called a Russian trader by our own CIA, you know, by our own spook infrastructure, like Senator Chuck Schumer had said during the election, you know, for a smart businessman, Trump is pretty dumb because the intelligence agencies have seven waves from Sunday of getting back at you. That was prophetic. They did. They sold lie after lie, which was completely accepted at face value on all mainstream media except for Fox. But you can eliminate Fox because like, oh, sure, they're conservatives. But all the mainstream media played 100%. Brennan, Clapper, Comey, they come on TV. Yes, Trump is a traitor.

Here's the proof. How is he a traitor? Oh, he's a traitor in so many ways. He's a Russian agent. They did that to him for the first three years of his administration right into the COVID emergency. And they're going to, they'll do it again. I guarantee you these these traders inside of our government are going to monkey wrench the government to sabotage him to prevent him from being effective. But I do think on the foreign stage, yes, he would he would be able to calm things down. He said today, he said he said on the Patrick Ben David podcast, which is going to be released tomorrow, that no, he is not for regime change in Iran, that we need to stay the hell out of there and mind our own damn business. We got our own problems. We can't run our own.

country. We shouldn't be trying to, you know, reorder the world and how they run their country. That's exactly the opposite of the, you know, the Blinken, Mayorkas, those guys. They're, they are absolutely all about like, let's have a war with Iran. So I think Trump is signaling he wants to calm these things down. And, you know, we saw him in North Korea. We walked over the border. It's like not that I love, you know, the leader of the young leader of North Korea, but we have to, we have to calm things down and avoid a world war. I mean, Nixon went to Moscow and then, and sent Kissinger to China. It doesn't mean you love people, but you, you know, you don't want to just be like maniacs in a dynamite factory,

you know, bluffing, lighting the fuse on the stick of dynamite, which is what we've got now. You know, we have to detach from Israel. I'm sorry, Israel, you just can't drop American 2,000 pound bombs across the Middle East, you know, provoking everybody in sight to try to attack you to draw America into your war against Iran. I mean, I think that Trump is against that. And that's why before the election and even if Trump is appears to be elected, I think they're going to be pushing for this war with Iran.

They, you know, and the war with Iran, Straits of Hormuz, Global Depression. One, two, three. If you get global depression, walk me through that train of thought, right? They close the Straits of Hemos and, or Hormuz, sorry. And, you know, and you go through that thought process. Where does that lead you? Like, what would a global? Entire countries will starve.

You know, the, the oil is not the only thing that it has to. be moving on ships. Fertilizer has to move on ships. Food has to move on ships. There are maps of the world that show like net importer and exporter of food and reliance on fertilizer. So a lot of countries might say, yeah, Michael Yan turned me onto this. Like Thailand will say, oh, we're a net exporter of food. Right. But your rice is basically a byproduct of fertilizer based on natural gas, which you can't afford anymore, you know, that without the input of the fertilizer, you're a net input, you're no longer exporting rice. You're now needing more rice than you're producing. So when there's this global depression, countries are not going to be able to afford ships full of fertilizer or ships full of grain.

You know, Egypt, Pakistan will starve because nobody is just on charity going to say, let's keep sending Egypt grain. Because we just feel like it would be so tragic if, if, you know, 100 million Egyptians starved, Nigeria, Pakistan, you go down the list, you know, Bangladesh, all these countries that are net importers of food, they depend on those ships. When the oil stops moving through the Straits of Hormuz, there's going to be an economic implosion. Ships are not going to be sending, you know, the, the food around the world way, because that people won't be able to pay for it. And you know, you can very rapidly get into a situation, great instability across the world because so many countries that are net importers of food,

and we're talking big countries like Pakistan and Egypt, they're going to starve. And this is, and like I said, these are the madmen at two ends of a dynamite factory, you know, flicking their bick and getting it closer to the fuse saying, you'd better back out of the dynamite factory or I'm going to blow the whole dynamite factory up. That's, imagine, you know, like Crucchev and JFK or something. I won't talk to it, Crucchev. Tell Khrushchev, get the ships out of there or we bomb them tomorrow. I mean, you have to talk.

You know, Nixon talked. Reagan talked. You know, Reagan had those long discussions with Gorbachev. You know, they didn't threaten each other. They didn't say, you do this or else. Right now, Israel and America, which is like the tail wagging the dog, is threatening everybody in the region, you get out of my dynamite warehouse or out lighten the fuse and we all get blown up.

And America is like, wait a minute, I don't want to be in the dynamite factory with you getting blown up. And no, we're sending them, we're sending them shiploads of 2,000 pound bombs. All you want, drop them anywhere you want. It's all good. And the rest of the world is seeing the consequences of those. So we're heading into a conflict where America is not going to be seen as the good guy. And then piggybacked on the potential to likely civil unrest if Trump wins,

we'll see probably infrastructure attacks by some of these terrorists that we've led into the country, thousands of them. Another consequence of the wide open border isn't just Trenda, Aragua, and all these other gangster factions coming in. Actual terrorists have come in. It's like the word went out. Why wait for a drone strike in the Middle East? Go to America and be ready to attack right there on the great Satan's soil. You know, just thousands of these guys could just shut down our grid overnight, just shooting at transformers, the big transformers.

You know, it's not like a secret. It's not a secret how to do this. You know, people understand how weak we are. And we don't. We still think we're like the 500-pound gorilla that tells everybody what to do. And that day is going away. It's going to be an interesting few months.

Yeah, well, I mean, the 500-pound gorilla, you know, up here in the north, at times you can, you could still be the 500-pound gorilla. But in the meantime, time, you know, like it's interesting to me. Like you just think of all the things going on on all the different levels. Okay. So if it was just the border, you'd like, okay, that's a bad problem, right? You got, I don't know what's what's the number, Matt? Is it 40 million roughly? Is that give or take? It's like a joke inside of America that from like 1990 to 2020, they were always saying 11 million illegals were in the country. It's like that's like when the order of the Soviet Union

saying, you know, everybody's hungry, but they say, we had a record grain harvest. That's in all the media. 11 million became a joke in America. It's like nobody's come in since like 1990. You've been saying 11 million for 25 years. So the number was probably 11 million just in California. This is before Biden Harris. But when you add up the people that they registered, gave a cell phone and patted them on the back and gave them a bus ticket, you add then just the the, the, the gotaways, the ones that, you know, are the actual real serious criminals. See, they'd push hundreds of just civilians through in one sector, knowing that the border patrol will be busy passing out box lunches, cell phones, debit cards.

And then the real gangsters come in where there's, you know, 20 miles of nobody on the border at all, bringing in the fentanyl and et cetera. So I think that that the number being quoted for just under Biden, Harris, is probably around 20 million. And I would say it was probably 20 to 25 million before. So out of a population of in America of what, 350 million, I forget, it's high 300 millions. I would say 40 or 50 million are illegals right now.

You walk into any Walmart. Just walk around in any Walmart in America. And it's like obvious there are newcomers that do not speak English that are unassimilated. assimilated, you know, that are just somehow here. And, and they, you know, they get the full treatment. And this is also brewing up a great deal of resentment. I just listened to Mike Farris today. He had on, he had on a guest that was saying, you know, the American policy, you know, the function of a thing is what it does. The American policy is take the tax money from productive American citizens and give it to low IQ illegal aliens who will then be beholden Democrat Party voters

forever because they've got nothing else. They're not going to start jobs. The U.S. Army, they don't use IQ. They use another system that's an analog to IQ. The U.S. Army will not recruit anybody with an IQ below 82 or 84. No matter what, the amount of training you give this guy will never get him past being able to stack boxes in a warehouse if that he'll below that he'll he'll f up the warehouse you know what i mean he won't know about out he'll you'll tell him put things in alphabetical order but he doesn't know what that means so you go back into the warehouse and everything is out of order so the u.s army won't take people that is higher the cutoff for the u.s army for the lowest job sweep the barracks job the cutoff for the army is

higher than the average population of countries like, you know, Congo, Sudan, Somalia, where we're bringing in people an entire class of people who are, you know, they're not going to like breathe the magic air, walk on the magic dirt, and suddenly become high IQ. They're 65, 70 IQ. They will be 100% dependent on the government. They will each require translators, government employees, or contract, you know, NGOs paid with taxpayer monies. That's like the way that they launder the money. It's not a lot.

The government didn't pay to put those people in the house in a hotel. No, the NGO did. Right. Well, the NGO got the money from the government. So it's just a cutout. It's a laundering process. But these people that are coming in with an average IQ below what the army will recruit just too dumb to stack boxes in a warehouse.

They're all going to need medical. They've never seen a dentist. They've never had seen a doctor. They're all going to need medical. They're all going to need education. They're putting like 20-year-olds in middle school classes because that's where they test. So you've got a 20-year-old testosterone-raging man from the third world sitting in with your, you know, 13-year-old daughter next to her in the classroom.

All of this is designed to wreck this country. It's not just, wow, nobody could have seen it. they do see what's coming. I mean, my Yorkist, the head of DHS, not born in America, born in Cuba, of Jewish persuasion, like Tony Blinken, like Janet Yellen, like the head of the Department of Justice, by a coincidence, an amazing coincidence. But he's not even born in America. His job before becoming the head of the Department of Homeland Security, which is in charge of the border, Secret Service and Federal Emergency Management Agency.

That's DHS. Critical, critical job. His job before that was he was a board member of highest, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society. This is one of the leading NGOs, along with Catholic charities, Lutheran charities, that take billions in tax money to then distribute it to the illegal aliens.

So the government will say, no, no, we didn't give cell phones illegal aliens. No, you gave it to Catholic charities. They bought the cell phones and gave them to the illegal aliens. Well, Majorcas was the head of highest. That to me, he's an enemy general. He's one of the, he's one of the functionaries of the globalists. That would be like hiring Alexander, what's his, Soros, George Soros's son. Like, imagine, oh, Alexander Soros, he'll be perfect for head of DHS. Why not? You know, his father is George Soros. Majorcas is a board member, like a leading general of one of the enemy armies whose mission

is to flood America with low IQ immigrants from the third world. These guys, they say, oh, they'll self-deport. If we just cut off their welfare, they'll self-deport. A guy from Congo with a 70 IQ can't self-deport. He can't find the airport. He had to have people hold his hand, put cards in his hand, put maps in his hands, you know, with with pictographs because he can't read to get him to the airport, to put him on the plane to Ecuador. You know, this guy can't self-deport. He never bought a plane ticket in his life. People handed him plane tickets. So just cutting off the welfare isn't going to mean he's going to be going back to Congo. He don't, he barely understands how.

he got to America. It's like some series of miracles happened to him. Nice people kept handing him maps and tickets. The next thing you know, he's in Chicago. You can't say cut off his welfare. He'll go back to Congo. He can't figure out how to get to the bus stop. He doesn't speak English either. So the people that are doing this are doing it because they're globalists. They believe in a global government vision. There has to be one global government, of course them in charge. Klaus Schwab, the Wef, George Soros, Alexander Soros, Open Society, highest groups like this. They see America as the last impediment to global government, one world government. They're not worried about Canada because you've got Krista Freeland and

Justin Trudeau. They're already on board. Alexander and George Soros are like on their, you know, short list of texting. They're like best buds. Krista Freeland, how is she also on the board of the wef? She's one of Klaus Schwab's like senior generals. At the same time, she's really running Canada, I think more than Justin Trudeau, who's just like the happy face. How do you have a board member of Wef running your treasury? Isn't that what's her job? She's a finance minister. and deputy prime minister and deputy prime minister and the real power problem the real shot caller i would say how does she become that in charge of that in Canada well how did myorkas become in charge of

border policy he's an enemy general i mean if imagine in world war two isenhower is replaced by hans goderian you know that oh goderian just switched side He's going to come from the Russian front. Now he's in London and he's going to lead the allies. Wait, he's an enemy. He's an enemy general. I go back to your, I go back to your 600 or 500 pound gorilla comment. And I go, it's so many multiple things because the more you dig into it, the more you see, okay.

And I, what I was where the started was, I was saying immigration. But then you look at DEI. You look at different things that are like. subtle, maybe not that subtle, but you know, to maybe the average population kind of settled behind the scenes. And it's just picking away at what makes the United States, the United States. And then- It's a full-on sabotage. Now, there are people who believe in DEI. And a lot of them have government jobs that wouldn't exist, you know, unless it was created by the government. You're going to be

a human resources manager at this corporation or university. The job wouldn't exist. There's no value added, right? They don't, they are strictly a friction device, you know, that is helping to get rid of high IQ white men and replace them with low IQ non-white men, you know, not white men everywhere. So this is why Boeing's airplanes have problems and SpaceX is leading the world in rocketry because Elon Musk is not into DEI. His main priority is, his main priority. is not a critical race theory and diversity equity inclusion. It's getting rockets into space. So it's a perfect example.

But the people that are higher up, the idiot that's got the DEI job, she doesn't understand she's just a pawn in this. She's just happy that she's making $100,000 a year to harass people at a corporation, you know, with nonsense. But the people higher up at the Majorcas, you know, blinking, level, they're doing sabotage. They do not believe in sovereign nations. They think America as a free capitalist society is much too strong and it's like a giant boulder in the middle of the river. They're trying to get this world government going. And first though, they have to either

completely subvert America and turn it communist, which Kamala Harris, nominal president would go a long way toward that or just wreck it you know turn you know just drop a bomb on that boulder in the river and blow america to pieces so that it can never be rebuilt you know bringing in a 20 or so million low IQ people that'll never be productive citizens they're they're only feeding themselves because they're given a card right they're given a cell phone so that they can continue getting messages you know that a blast message will go out you are now eligible for another benefit call this number and set up your next dental appointment so they're they're given these these cell phones to keep them on a dependency leash and their and their whereabouts are known

and at the same time so it's a very it's a very um enveloping kind of corruption and so and and and and and sabotage because for years now, we've had motor voter laws. Oh, we should, it's so inconvenient to have to go to two lines, one to get your driver's license over there at the DMV and one over there to get your, your, your voter registration. That's just asking too much of people. Let's put the driver's license and the voter registration on the same sheet of paper. And you have to affirm, no, I am not an American citizen.

Don't give me a voter registration. But at the same time, the message is going out on Spanish TV, Spanish radio in California, other states, billboards. Nobody has ever been charged with election fraud in California. There is nobody in California law enforcement looking at election fraud. They're doing a giant wink, wink, wink. When you get your motor voter, nobody can. cares if you get a voter registration. And they don't even care if that guy himself gets a mail-in

ballot and does it. They don't care. All these Haitians in Springfield are going to vote. Does that mean they're going to suddenly learn English and fill out this paperwork? No. Their names are in a database that is crossed with, you know, the DMV motor voter automatic registration. So people, their names will vote. The guy won't be aware that he voted, but their names will be put in as a vote, as a mail-in ballot. So let me ask you this, because, you know, like, you know, when, when Biden had to drop, when Biden had to debate Trump, it was kind of like he'd been let out to pasture, you know, everybody could see what the powers of B were doing. And then, and then they installed Harris, right?

So now you got Harris versus Trump. Did you see the Harris? I assume you did. The Harris Fox interview with Brett. I'll forget his last name. Thank you. Thank you. But spelled differently.

Correct. I don't know. Up until that point, I felt like they've been very, I don't know, structured or very strategic, probably is the word I'm looking for, on where they've allowed Kamala Harris to talk. And then they put her on Fox. And I thought, that's a very strange thing to do. And then I, you know, I watched the interview and I was like, well, this doesn't, like, I don't know. I came out of the debate, you know, I had Martin Armstrong on after the debate against Trump. And Armstrong was like, it felt like Kamala Harris won it.

I was like, interesting. Okay. And then you fast forward and then she goes on that, like of all places that, why did they put her there? I don't know. Maybe I'm looking at it different. Most conservatives think that it's a sign of desperation that you're if you're down four points, they say, if you're down four points in the fourth quarter with a minute to go, you have to. You have no choice, even though that every unstructured interview has been kind of a disaster

for her. But there's something else also. Our country is so split. In terms of media, the people that watch Fox will see, oh, she's an idiot. She made a fool of herself. She didn't answer a single question. But half of our country thinks that Fox is like Satan. That's like Hitler's broadcast studio, okay? They would rip their eyeballs out. If Fox came on for a second, you know, they would pour acid in their eyes before they would watch, you know, Sean Hannity, right? They would like, la, la, la, la, I can't hear you. Literally. I have relatives like that. So when they turn on CNN or MSNBC or go to their podcast sites and their their Twitter feed sites, they're seeing 20-second clips showing Kamala Harris just jujitsued Brett

Bear. Wow. Isn't she awesome? She doesn't put up with crap. She hits back. She is the power woman. So that sounds like nonsense to conservatives that watched all 25 minutes. But it doesn't matter because we're not one country anymore.

We're like a letter Y and we split a long time ago. And their side of the river is. seeing only clips that reinforce the narrative that she's a powerful modern woman who's going to preserve your reproductive rights, you know, and not put illegal aliens in concentration camps like Trump wants to do. We're just not one country anymore. So you can have a, you can have a narrative that's just completely, they're not even touching. There's not even crossover. So yeah, But I think that the odds are Trump will probably win this election. I think that they'll have to cheat at such a level that it will be obvious, that it'll be too

obvious. And the real shot callers, you know, the dozen or 20 people that are the most influential, if their internal polling is showing, look, Trump is going to win in a landslide. We can't fake this. We can't pretend that, you know, Trump just got. Going back to the 2020 election, Trump got more votes than Obama. He got more votes than anybody else in history except for Biden who miraculously leapfrog past Obama and everybody else in popularity and came up with 81 million votes.

Conservatives think that's BS. Like how many of those votes were like the ones that came in at 3 a.m. in the vans, right? They can't suddenly just inject so many votes in at 3 a.m. this time. Or say, oh, we're still counting votes in Pennsylvania for two weeks. Look, we found some in a closet. We found some in a car trunk. Oh, all these votes have to be counted until they drag Harris over the finish line. I don't think that will work this time.

So some of the smarter people on the Democrat side are saying, look, if Trump wins conclusively, we can't, we have to admit that he won. But then we go to plan B, which is civil disorder. Don't let Trump be inaugurated. Go straight to the riots and bureaucrats in Washington start monkey wrenching. You know, start introducing chaos into your systems so that everything, the gears will all freeze up and it will be blamed on Trump. That their backup is civil disorder and internal sabotage. to prevent Trump from succeeding. They'd rather wreck America.

They would absolutely rather wreck America than have Trump succeed. Do you see any of that happening here before the election? You know, like, I mean, one of the things with talking with Tom Luongo and Alice Criner in the lead up and then Trump being shot, you're like, holy diana, right? I, you know, I would say I was pretty naive even then to think they would go to such an extent. And then they tried. And I mean, since I've tried again. and you kind of just...

And by coincidence, you know, the roof is unguarded. Well, yeah. Well, you couldn't put a... You couldn't put a Secret Service agent on that roof is too sloped. And then you see the slope and you're like, this is wild. It's too many coincidences. It's... Yes.

An example I've used before, it would be possible, like in an astronomical sense, for a homeless beggar off the street to push a shopping cart into like, you know, the first national bank downtown. And all the tellers were looking away at that moment. And the cameras didn't work because they're being maintained that day. And the vault inner door was open because they're ready to move to a armored car. Right. And there's one of these giant things full of cash and he just puts it in his shopping cart and then pushes it out.

It's possible that could happen. It's not impossible, right? All the tellers, bank managers and all their backs are turned at that exact moment. But it strains credulity. It's possible, but it's highly improbable. But all of these things happening with Trump security to get a guy in position for a shot where the guy is like not Mr. Tactical Ninja. He's just walking on a roof with a rifle.

And then it happens again in Florida. And the guy just happens to be in a, you know, CIA sponsored as of, battalion promo ad and he's flying he's his is making like no money and he's flying to like turkey and all these countries and when you when you see some guy like this and he's flying to thailand and turkey what you're doing is meeting people there are people that you can't fly into america to meet him right and he can't fly to iran for example but he can fly to turkey and the iranian contact can fly to turkey right and they've been then they're they're in adjoining rooms at the same hotel in turkey this is tradecraft 101 so this

guy ruth flying all over the world no visible means of support drives a portia lives in hawaii come on i mean it's just it's a it's a joke how we're just like being fed such bullshit they they really don't want trump to be president but if he if he does win if it's like a a landslide. If it's like Reagan Carter, you know, or or Bush Dukakis, if it's a landslide like that, then, um, well, once again, I go to, they're going to go riots and sabotage. I go back to Armstrong. And Armstrong, you know, brought it up with the computer and it shows it's going to be that type of landslide. Like, uh, and for listeners, if they go back to that last time Martin Armstrong was on, it was basically 6040 is basically in the United States, that's a landslide. Like,

60, 40, and you go, okay. So there's, there's multiple options or thought process that go on. And it's like, maybe I'm wrong because, you know, you're looking at what's going on. Trump's been asking to upgrade his security to like military aircraft with anti-missile capabilities. You know, they put out the flares and have other jamming. That he's, he's obviously somebody's told him that there's like some loose surface to air missiles. And when you're flying in on an airplane that says Trump on the side, that's highly risky. And I also worry about other attack vectors like these, you know, you've got these lithium batteries, the size of an old computer mouse, you know, your charge pack battery.

Sure. You can run your cell phone for a few more hours. They're everywhere. And they can be totally functional, but they're actually half C4 and half battery. But their lights turn on, they'll, you know, they'll charge the laptop, everything. So, you know, the cameraman that gets on the aircraft with a figure like Trump could unwittingly be carrying a bomb on the airplane. Because it would be so easy to sneak into his hotel room, you know, while he's down at the hotel bar. And you just switch out his, you know, Apple charging unit with one that's half C4.

He gets on the airplane at 10,000 feet, it explodes. things like that are very easy to do. And at this point, I think that there are people that are, some people might be thinking, look, if he wins, we have to deal with it, then we'll do sabotage and civil disorder. But there are others that are thinking, like John Brennan, I could be going to prison for, you know, some form of treason for what I did with the Russia collusion hoax, etc. I could be going to prison. I'm too old to spend 20 years in prison.

I'd rather blow this guy out of the air than take a chance on that. Yeah, so I think that, you know, And there's parts of the United States that would cheer that on. Sure. That's the scary thing. And there's also poison. There's besides ingestable poison, there's contact poisons. They can put something in your shoe that like, you know, polonium, something that causes like what the Russians have allegedly done.

You know, the super highly radioactive polonium in somebody's teacup, you know, that, yeah, there's ways to take people. out. I mean, we've seen assassinations. Abe was assassinated. Abe was assassinated more like one of these low, low grade attacks against Trump, but it succeeded. A fanatic who was, you know, fed on the anti-Abe script because Abe had bad health problems, but he was going to make a comeback, maybe run for office again. A guy in Japan actually made his own ceramic gun. He made like a homemade zip gun. And he, like, jumped over a barricade into a street and shot Abe and killed him. So you can say, well, like the Japanese CIA didn't do that. No, but the Japanese media that he listened to was saying, you'll be a hero if you take him out because he's like a potential Japanese Hitler. You keep calling

Trump Hitler. You're basically announcing to the world, you'll be a hero if you kill Hitler. You know, to that part of the world, you'll be a hero if you take him out. And there are people that I think at this point would be willing to go to other means like poison, exploding batteries, surfaced air missile. I rule nothing out because there are people that do not want him in office. I mean, it's a world war. We're already in a world war. We're in a world war. But it's like a crypto, it's a crypto war in the sense that the globalists know they're in a war. They're sabotaging our country, dropping 20 million, you know, low IQ savages into our country is sabotage. You know, if somebody took a jar full of scorpions with a loose lid and put it in the

kindergarten and the curious kids opened the lid and got, you know, stung by scorpions, you wouldn't blame the scorpions, right? The scorpion is just being a scorpion. A savage from Congo dropped into Chicago, or Dublin, or Frankfurt, he's just being a savage from Congo. You have to blame the guy that handed him tickets and maps and tickets and maps to get him from Congo. That's Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society. That's the United Nations refugee of UNRWA. You know, that's these organizations. They're in a global war. America is the main enemy and Western Europe. And their goal is to wreck it, to level the field. There's a guy, Kalergi. You look up the Kalergi plan sometime. It's coming into

fruition. This whole, we got to wreck the European and America, Australia, New Zealand, the white English-speaking world has to be wrecked. And they're well on the way. And we don't know most Americans don't even know we're in this war. We're losing a war and most Americans don't even understand we're in a war. That's what dropping 20 million low IQ savages into a country is. It's not a gift. It's not a mistake. It's a weapon.

It's like pouring some rot mold fungus into a wooden castle. You're supposed to be cleaning with pine saw, but instead you're swabbing mold spores all over the wood. You're doing that because you're pretending to be the genital. monitor, but your real goal is to destroy this wood structure. So instead of pine sole disinfectant, you're spreading mold spore, you know, cocktail all through the wood. That's what's happening to our country. And most people still think, well, he's trying to do a good job. Look at him over there working. He's really cleaning that wood, isn't he? No, he's trying to wreck your house. And that's

what they're doing to America. We're in a world war. We're losing it. And most Americans have not even come to grips with the shape of this war because it's not the Japanese over there, the Americans, the Germans and the Russians in uniforms, tanks, airplanes. It's a different kind of war. But it's a war and we're losing. And Trump is like possibly going to pull the American side back together when he starts talking about mass deportation, whether or not he can pull it off, right? whether or not it's feasible. Like I said, the Congolese guy can't figure out how to get back to Congo, nor would he, right? But they understand that him just talking about deportation, mass deportation, to the globalist.

That means he sees us. He's blowing away the camouflage smoke. It's like they've got the cloaking device over them that says, charity, helpful people. Christian Lutheran Hebrew charity, United Nations Refugee Program. Oh, there's a really good people. They're blowing away the smoke and you're seeing underneath is an enemy that is trying to wreck your country by infiltrating unassimitable savages, terrorists, murderers, gang members, everybody, all comers, and then paying them money to keep their peace so that at the moment when they,

those debit cards aren't refilled. And that's how they've been eating on a debit card that automatically re-ups. And billions are spent on these illegal aliens, billions. And then this disaster happens in Western North Carolina. And Marcos comes out and says, we're out of money. Oh, that the billions that we spent on the illegal aliens that FEMA spent on illegal aliens, That was from a different, that was from my left pocket, not my right pocket. So it has nothing to do with it. So you get your $750 and you're not going to see a helicopter. You're not going to see any kind of reconstruction going on.

It's just screw you white, conservative Christians in North Carolina. You know, good luck voting. Got no electricity. No roads for Katrina. By comparison, when New Orleans was flooded and that Southern. Louisiana, they immediately initiated, this was Bush, they immediately initiated the biggest peacetime helicopter airlift in world history. The Department of Defense told everybody with helicopters head to New Orleans, head to Louisiana. We'll do the paperwork later. They sent something like

600 helicopters from as far as like California and New York, where they would have to lily pad, you know, multiple refuel just to get there. Just get the helicopters moving. We'll figure out how to pay for it later. For North Carolina, they're just a couple hundred miles away from some of the biggest military bases with hundreds of helicopters sitting there. Fort Campbell, Kentucky, home of the 101st. Fort Bragg now renamed Fort Liberty, 82nd Airborne, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina Marine Corps, hundreds of helicopters. sitting on the ground for the first, say, week after that hurricane hit Western North Carolina,

the only way to do anything was by helicopter. And instead of like a Katrina level of operation, they were saying, you can't even fly your own civilian helicopter in, we'll ground you, we'll take your license. So I'm not like with some people like Stephen Murray and others that think that they can now steer hurricanes. I'm not there. but they can certainly treat disasters totally different depending on who's being affected. New Orleans, Democrats, 500 helicopters, go.

Western North Carolina, Republicans, we're out of money. We gave it all to illegal aliens. So, yeah, and part of it is just to create this anger. You know, they want to stoke the anger. They need a response from the right wing. They can't always put left-wing Antifa on the street to do right. riots like after George Floyd. They're trying to provoke a right-wing response so that they can then justify more crackdowns, eventually martial law, et cetera. They even just change the law

in this country to loosen the restrictions on American military, shooting, lethally shooting at Americans if they're like on a mission where they feel threatened. This is like completely in ethma in America. American soldiers getting permission to shoot Americans in America. That was like past two weeks ago. So you know they're gearing up for something. All these stories, oh, the militias ran the FEMA out of North Carolina. What militias? They're building a narrative that the right wingers have to be taken down. So yeah, we're in a crazy period in history with what's going on in the Middle East, China, Taiwan, Russia, Ukraine, and factions in this country that would rather see World War III than Trump inauguration.

They'd rather wreck our economy than see Trump succeed. You know, they're not American patriots. They're globalists. They do not love the idea of a strong, powerful, independent, sovereign, wealthy America. They hate that. They want to wreck it. That's how a person like Mayorkas becomes, you know, an enemy general changes uniforms and becomes the general of the Department of Homeland Security.

I mean, it's mind-boggling. But you could understand it in Canada. You got Krista Freeland and Fidel Castro's bastard son, right? I mean, there's 100%. You can look at, you can pick 100 random pictures off the internet. It's Fidel Castro's son. Trudeau Sr. was a big commie. His son, his late in life wife was a big commie lover, a honeymoon in Cuba.

What do you think happened? I mean, you can't even, this is like something like Rosemary's Baby or one of those rapture movies, you know, the Damien, you know, the omens, those kind of movies. It's like, son of Satan, Justin Trudeau, Fidel Castro's bastard son. Can you say it in Canada? I'll probably get pulled off of there in Canada for saying that. Well, one of the things we don't do on this side is we don't self-sensor. make sure that guests are, you know, like people can disagree with everything you've said

today, Matt, or they can agree with all of it in between, but we don't do anything on this, dad. We let Google how many times, Google how many times Justin Trudeau and Christopher Reland have met with like Klaus Schwab and Alexander and George Soros. They're like bridge partners almost. I mean, how do how does America have an enemy general running our border patrol And how does Canada have an enemy general running, you know, the deputy, the deputy prime minister and finance minister? I mean, we're in a war and people don't even see it. Do you think, you know, I guess before I lay out here, the one thing I'm thinking is, you know, like one of the things when I look at this in the amount of time they've taken to get it to where it is, right? This didn't happen overnight.

This has taken time. Sure, it feels like it's accelerating at an exceptional pace. and at the same time I'm like I don't know is there a way Trump gets elected in and things die down for a bit and we sit here in four years time at another U.S. election

knowing that Donald Trump can't run again and we're not having the same conversation but maybe they just don't it doesn't play out this way because instead of thinking and would have to get done in the next two weeks they've been very creative, I would say, and I don't mean that in the positive light.

I just mean it, you know, they've been playing this long game. Is it possible they're going to play the game longer than we think? If this was the 90s, the early 2000s, yes. But we're not just talking about whether it's going to be Harris and whoever her handlers are or Trump in the White House. At the same time, we're talking about, you know, financial dominance that's coming to an end, you know, that the dollar is going to no longer

be the world reserve currency. We have unpaid pension overhang that can never be paid. You know, military, corporate, you know, there are like, you know, Martin Armstrong, he's been on this for decades and decades. You just can't keep papering over the rot. You know, we're at the end of that cycle that we're at the end of the debt cycle. End of an age. John Maynard Keynes said, was asked, you know, how long can this, what we now call modern monetary theory, how long can this, you know, can this go on? You know, in the, in the long run, doesn't have, doesn't it always have to collapse? And he wrote this in like the 1930s.

Well, in the long run, we're all dead. So he was a homosexual with no children. John Maynard Keens. So like a lot of the European leaders, they don't have children. They're not married. You know, their emotional investment is to a world vision. It's a religion in essence. Their religion is globalism, ecology, climate change. That's their religion. And they're like monks dedicated to this religion. They don't have children. They don't have a vision for like what their children will be doing. When John Maynard Keen said in the long run, we're all dead, it's basically, so what, it'll blow up in 2025. I won't be here.

You know, it'll work great from 1930 to 2000. After that, ain't my problem, right? I'm in Kami Valhalla. It won't matter to me. Well, now we're getting to the end of that cycle. You can't just keep putting a coat of whitewash over, you know, the rot. You just can't keep printing money. I mean, you can add digits to people's debit cards, but that won't put food on the shelves.

Anyway, I'm sorry to be so cheerful and... But yeah, I'm gonna vote for Trump. Some people are like, what differences make? I won't vote. I'm gonna vote for Trump. And did you ever see the movie Flight with Denzel Washington? Yes, absolutely, where he's high and possibly drunk and then the plane goes down and he crashes it into the field, right?

Right. But he has to flip it because it's like a mechanical male, he's drunk, but he's drunk, but there's a mechanical malfunction. He has to roll the plane inverted so that it went by diving, it'll be going up. And then at the last minute, flip it again so it lands in the field. So I got three pilots. I've got, there's a show called like air disaster or something like that where they recreate different air crashes. There was a German wings, like a low budget Luftanzah pilot flying like from, you know, from Spain back to Germany.

And when the main pilot was in the bathroom, he locked. him out and then he set the autopilot to fly right into the French Alps. Okay. That's Kamala Harris. Her economic theory and the people she wants them, they want war with Iran, which will cause a global depression. They want to wreck America, even if she doesn't realize that's the plan. Then you've got, you've got Denzel Washington in flight. That's Trump. He's drunk, but he's a great pilot. You know, he's a drunk addict asshole. But in a crunch, he's at least trying to land the airplane in the field, right? He's not trying to fly it into the mouth.

And Sullenberger, the guy that landed on the Hudson, he's not an option. So you can't say, I'm not voting unless the perfect pilot is on the list. Okay. That's not the choice. The choice is A, wants to fly straight into the mountain. B, the drunk pilot who is at least going to try to land it in the field. And I'll vote for the drunk pilot who wants to land it in the field. I'm not going to say, I refuse because I'll only vote for Sullenberger.

Sullenberger is not on the plane. It's not an option. So, yeah, I hope that we hit the field minimal damage. We can get through all the civil unrest. We don't have our grid attack. We don't go to war with Iran. Yeah, but that's still, and we get through into 2025, no, no world war, de-escalate with Russia, de-escalate with Iran, but that still doesn't solve our long-term economic issues.

But at least a longer process will allow more time for adjustment than just a complete break, you know, like a close the straits of Hormuz, oil goes to 500 tomorrow. Countries starve and are in revolution. That's what we don't want to see. So yeah, I'm voting for Trump and I hope he makes it to January 20th and I hope that, you know, we have new people in charge of these key cabinet positions like instead of Mayorkas, put some, put one of these former real border patrol guys in charge. They can close the border in a day. They don't need a law of nothing. It's in our Constitution, Article 4, Section 4, and other places that protecting the country against invasion is like right in the Constitution as the federal government must.

You know, it shall. It's not like May. It's shall. Shall. It's called the guarantee clause. Article 4, Section 4, Federal Government shall protect the states against invasion. Shall. They're not.

They're leading the invasion. So you don't need a law to undo what Biden and Harris have done. give the order to the border patrol, nobody crosses starting today. Tear gas, tasers, you know, whatever it takes. We'll be building the wall, electrify the damn wall. We used until until like the 50s, the army was on the border. It's like the army wasn't for occupying Iraq or Haiti or Nicaragua or Mexico. The army was for protecting our border. I mean, what a concept. Your army protecting your border. Wow. What an amazing mind-blowing concept.

We did that for like the first 150 years. Then it became a civilian job. And then the president can say, let everybody throw. Amazing times to live in. Matt, thanks for hopping on this side. And, well, if you need a cold shower, folks, that's all right. One of the things that, you know, we appreciate you coming on and speak of your mind. And if people, yeah, people want to go buy your book and do some reading, where can they find it?

Yeah, if you want them signed, I can send them directly and you cut Amazon out of the process completely. And the details are on my website, Enemiesfarneddomestic.com. These are big books like 500 pages each. And I prefer, however you get them, it's better the printed books. They can't be mass deleted or digitally corrupted and lost, you know, when the internet implodes. There will still be a book on the shelf. But if you don't care about the signature, they're available at Amazon, also in audiobook and Kindle formats. How about social media?

If people want to follow you. I'm on Twitter for now until the next time I get banned as Matt underscore Bracken 48. And I'm on Gab as Matt underscore Bracken. And I recommend people get a Gab account and parallel post. because just as Musk opened up Twitter, especially if Harris wins, they're going to go for censorship like you can't believe. And, you know, Twitter will probably be tightened up again. So I recommend Gab, just as a backup at least. And if you order, you know, it's funny with postage, it's so much more economical for me to send more than one book at a time.

So if you buy three or more books, then they're 20 each. These are 500-page books. But if you order three or more, it's 20 each, which will actually beat the Amazon price unless you have, like, Prime or something. But I don't care. But Kindle is great, audio books. A lot of people like to hear a book.

But however you get them, I prefer that they'd be on a shelf so they can't be deleted. Matt, thanks for doing this. And hopefully some people not only buy a book, but start following you on Twitter or Gab, wherever they can find you. Appreciate you hopping on and giving us some time today. Thank you, Sean.

It's great.
