I'm here with Tim the Toolman.
We're live at SOE.
Except we're not live.
You're watching this prerecorded.
This is the Cronorad Alert.
Civil defense information will be broadcast at 640.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Hello.
Y2K, how can we prepare?
Stop a few of their machines and radios.
Throw them into darkness for a few hours.
We are fighting for our lives.
My family must survive.
Over five years, a thousand gallons of gas, air filtration, water filtration.
Hey guys, Toolman Tim here.
We are live at Self Reliance Festival, fall 2024.
And I got this little fella here with me, Bear from Bear Independent.
How are you, brother?
I'm good. This is the first time we've actually had a chance to sit down. I mean, stand up and
talk. Yeah. We got 10 minutes. How you doing? I'm overwhelmed and exhausted, but I'm going to make
it. How come? So we have a lot of ongoing operations, Eastern Tennessee, Western North
Carolina, through Grindstone Ministries. We've got ongoing
operations with Caleb House, which is our counter-trafficking ministry, you know,
wife homestead businesses, traveling, dancing bear stuff here at SOE, all of which is good.
It's all good. It's just bandwidth-wise, just a little smelted. So I know personally that your deal for showing up at events is if there's a crisis,
you are allowed to say goodbye and go deal with what needs to be dealt with.
Pull stakes and run toward the problem.
But you're here.
Yep.
How come?
So it's interesting.
Here, we've, SOE in Camden,den Tennessee I don't know why the father knows
has been like a jumping off point for three different deployments that we've done
and it just keeps happening and the last time I was slated to speak here I had to go because
Rolling Fork Mississippi got hit by a tornado and said to to your point, I have an out clause. If I got to go,
I'm going to go right now. I'm here because I'm the second wave going in to Eastern Tennessee,
North Carolina. Grindstone ministries has been on the ground for the last nine days in Eastern
Tennessee, North Carolina. And our guys at the fob right now, fob cherry Hill are smoked.
They are smoked.
And so I've been back on this end doing TOC stuff, Tactile Operations Center,
strategic level coordinating needs and capabilities,
trying to get stuff in the right place at the right time.
And so now I'm headed into the thing so I can get some of our guys through there,
turn back so they can go home, rest, and refit.
So the first thing I want to ask before we go any further in case we get cut off
or something is how do people help right now? Because there's a lot of BS out there right now
and a lot of weird stuff. So if you said this is what you can do right now. So grindstoneministries.com
if you want to deploy, all the information is on there to deploy with us.
You have to be vetted.
You have to email serve at grindstoneministries.com.
Right now, earliest availability for on-site volunteers
is the 14th of October.
We're covered up until then.
Praise the Father.
We've got 60 plus volunteers per day,
which beyond 60, it gets
a little difficult to manage given the resources that we have available. If the Spirit is convicting
you to donate monetarily, you can do that at the website, Grindstone Ministries. If you want to buy
stuff to support the cause, we have an Amazon wishlist. Just search for Grindstone Ministries.
And then you can also email serve at grindstoneministries.com if you want to procure stuff on your end and coordinate a delivery, either you're going to put it on trucks or trailers, bring it to us or have it drop shipped to our FOB location.
Now, there's a lot of rumors that have been going around about Tennessee has been confiscating supplies that have been donated.
Per my current understanding, that is not true.
A lot of those resources were donated and then they were put into schools to house the resources.
Well, they're nine days away from opening the schools back up again.
You can't have school in a building filled with resources.
So they're coming back out of the schools.
They are in some cases being passed to other churches to steward those resources. So they're coming back out of the schools. They are in some cases being passed to other churches to steward those resources. But by and large, under TEMA, Tennessee Emergency
Management Agency, they're going to Bristol Motor Speedway, which is near to where the problem is,
but it's far enough removed. There's enough standoff there. We can get all of the stuff.
See, TEMA and Grindstone are working together on this. We are advising TEMA because this is our
46th deployment. It's the first time they've had to deal with something like this. We are advising TEMA because this is our 46th deployment.
It's the first time they've had to deal
with something like this, okay?
So, Grindstone is advising TEMA at Bristol Motor Speedway.
If we can bring in everything we've got in the area,
now we can better inventory it
so we can match what we have on hand
with the need that's presented in the field.
Oftentimes what happens is somebody needs something
at location A that exists in location B but we don't have any commo with location B, we don't
have an inventory on location B, so the need goes unmet because all the
resources are disaggregated out across the battle space. By bringing it all to
Bristol, we can inventory and control all of it so that we can push it back out to
where it's needed. On the Tennessee side, it's not being confiscated and given to illegal immigrants.
It's not being taken by FEMA.
It's being resourced so that it can be distributed effectively.
In North Carolina, that's a whole other story.
North Carolina, I have never seen FEMA actively work against recovery,
and that is what is happening there.
We literally yesterday established the Ho Chi Musk Trail to smuggle Starlinks behind
enemy lines in North Carolina to get camo up so that we can coordinate supply, logistics,
rescue on the North Carolina side.
And FEMA has put a cordon around the affected areas in North Carolina so that they will
not allow supplies, resources,
commo in for those affected people.
You want to share your thoughts on why that might possibly be?
I think we're maybe looking at a federal land grab here.
Really?
Yep.
In what way?
There's critical infrastructure to the defense and the economy of the United States of America
located inside of that disaster zone.
Okay.
Let it happen, made it happen, Black rock mining permits, blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, maybe.
Possible.
Entirely possible.
Comma.
We really care about the people that are inside of there, but the intel picture is not stacking
up.
Okay.
And so FEMA is keeping people out.
And then of course you have the governor who's going back and forth on whether or not to
declare a federally declared state of emergency, which would enact title 10, which means DOD and federal assets can come in.
And they've been back and forth on whether or not they want to do that. And so a little bit of
insider baseball, the governor, you know, the governor should have declared an emergency days
ago. But if he did, and then FEMA comes in because it's a nationally declared federal emergency,
they have jurisdiction over that area, which means they could do an even more effective job
of keeping people out because right now jurisdictionally the sheriff in each
county is the has the highest authority in that County and so the sheriff's can
and are arresting FEMA people pushing pushing FEMA out, blowing FEMA.
Dude, it's an asymmetric guerrilla war that is happening in North Carolina right now.
We're not hearing about it.
No, of course you're not hearing about it because there's no damn Starlinks in there.
There's no Camo, which is why we established the Ho Chi Musk Trail to get all that stuff in there. We're literally bringing ham radios, Starlinks, and portable solar generators into these areas on our backs,
and mules and M860 helicopters,
zodiacs, however we can to get them in there so we can get a network up because without
commo there's no logistics.
Without logistics we can't affect rescue, we can't affect resupply.
So without, I don't want to reach too deep here for you, but is there a story that you've
heard over the last nine days
that's jumped out and grabbed at you a little bit that maybe people haven't heard or maybe
not even that they haven't heard, but something that'll maybe paint the picture? Yes. Little
Germany outside of Jonesboro, Tennessee. There are 42, now 41 souls at Little Germany. They've been
in the new American captivity for nine days as of the time of this recording.
They were affecting Como with a single handheld five watt bow fang. They are completely cut off
from the outside world. They have no power. They have no access, no roads, bridges, anything like
that. And there are now 41 people who are banding together as a small community up on the top of a mountain
to take care of themselves and their livestock and their property.
They would have left. They could have left.
We've flown 60s over them on multiple occasions, but they've chosen to stay because the looting in the area is so bad
and they don't want their property destroyed.
Well, as of last night, somebody in Little Germany had had enough and committed suicide.
They're starving for information.
Their morale is incredibly low.
One issue that nobody had forecasted is they're having issues with bears and raccoons because they're generating so much trash.
Sure.
And they're burning what they can, but cans of food don't burn that good
so now we're having to sling load trash out of there and little germany is up there um affecting
camo with a handheld radio um charging it uh however they can they have no aggregated solar
they're using their rooftops for water collection they're eating uh non-perishable foods. They have no way to heat or boil water.
And so we've been flying in propane burners and propane for them.
And that's just Little Germany.
Sure.
And there are hundreds of Little Germanys in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina.
And so it kind of paints the picture.
And the only aid they have gotten has come through Grindstone.
The only intel they have gotten has come through grindstone. The only intel they've gotten
has come through grindstone. Their only connection to the outside world is a five watt bow thing.
And it's in the tactically, we got to meet this need. That's what we're doing.
It's also an incredible opportunity to learn. How are people going to behave when SHTF happens?
What are they going to go through? What actually works? What doesn't work? Can they improvise, adapt, overcome? Are they? Do they have
the will to improvise, adapt, overcome? And so it's a fascinating case study. And for anybody out there
who has ever thought that the government is coming to save you, they are not coming to save you.
They also, and this is really important, they do not have the capacity to enslave you either.
And so if more good people would just stand up and do the right thing,
regardless of what the government says, this problem would be solved already.
Bear, thank you, brother.
One more time.
How do they help you?
How can they work with you?
