The final battle with you at my side, we will demolish the deep state. We will expel the warmongers from our government. We will drive out the globalists. We will cast out the communists, Marxists and fascists. We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all. Reaction. Epic.

Historic. Really unprecedented. Trump can walk. We're going to see what really happens, but damn, that was a hell of an ad right there. Right after his conviction. Yep. Came right out and he's gotten hundreds of millions of dollars in donations in just the last few days. Audio.

What do you think of that? The music. Oh, man. It was epic, like I said. From the message to the actual construction of it, it was just a masterpiece. I've been a critic of Trump, but that was pretty impressive. Very succinct and just epic. What about the visual?

Visual was good, too. Obviously, I'm going to share here, but that was pretty good. Him walking in. Coming down the hallway. Looked like he's not very phased and not beaten down. Looks like he's walking out of court after that conviction. Yeah. Now what about content?

Very general content in terms of going against the globalists, the Marxists, the fascists. Communists. Media. There's a lot. We're named. Exactly. So that sounds great. I always like to get deeper into actual details,

but he identified many of the enemies. It's a 30-second ad. Episode 265, Patriot Power Hour, coming to you tonight. I am Future Dan. Ben the Breaker of Banksters yeah June 4th 2024 also the what

35th anniversary of Tiananmen Square we kind of saw that a few minutes ago but yeah the biggest news since our last episode last week with Trump. And then we played that 33-second sound clip

that was the basis of an ad that was just super successful. It'll go down in history for sure, even though it's being suppressed right now, right? Yeah, yeah. And you look at the history of presidential ads and presidential televised appearances, debates, all the way back in time. There's turning points that documentaries are made about.

This is going to be in there. Sure. So I guess sentencing July 11th, I guess about five or six weeks. Certainly seems like this is backfiring on the globalists, the Marxists, the fascists. I like it. That was the type of stuff we would only say on Patriot Power Hour and I would say on my old shows 5, 7, 10 years ago and it sounded all like a conspiracy, but hey, it wasn't.

And now it's really out there, mainstream. Nothing more mainstream than Trump saying it. How close do you think he was to setting those objectives in that speech the first time he ran I definitely think he realizes stuff's a lot worse than he thought gloves are off yeah he took he trusted

some folks or thought hey I can work in the system and he got sucker punched even stabbed in the back the warmonger day times is for them yeah you can't and so i was trying to play devil's advocate a little bit and and controlled opposition or this and that but i don't think controlled opposition would talk too much smack about warmongers like that is off limits right like he wanted to say that unless he was real to some degree.

The SEC, the IRS, and the Federal Reserve, and the Treasury, and all the instruments and organizations that are ancillary to that power core of the financial repression, financial tyranny that we live under how adequately do you think that was covered by his list of villains they are in at least half of the yeah names he pointed out and he didn't have to call out any particular one which right i would Which I would argue is part of the evolution of conservatism, republicanism, patriotism in the United States. They're not getting called out yet. It's a matter of time. But they're not making a Trump list. They would make a successor to Trump with the same themes.

And we'll see it again. Trump can't run in 2028. So we'll have this conversation for a while. They're not getting named yet. But he pretty much named everybody else, didn't he? Yes, yes. And it'll be interesting to see what his 5, 15, and 1-hour-long speeches are with a little more details.

Hopefully it will. I know one thing he said, we don't have the sound clip, but we need to start putting more sound clips in there. I thought that worked real well. That was all your idea. Great one. He pretty much said he would stop the Ukraine war in 24 hours.

Is that over the top? Maybe. I hope he might have that, but at least he's trying that's at least specific so he'll see that type of planning or at least saying it for other objectives too if he made it happen he would count start the clock 25 hours earlier when he arrived somewhere to meet with putin a summit yes he doesn't literally want to get sworn in that doesn't count that's fair well 24 hours from when he attempts to do it is is what i think he means now it becomes that says literally want to get sworn in. That doesn't count. That's fair enough. Well, 24 hours from when he attempts to do it is what I think he means.

Now, it becomes that says, I will absolutely replace Janet Yellen, Jerome Powell. Oh, Yellen's gone. She's a Treasury Secretary. She wouldn't stay. Yeah, well, no other. You're not going to make her like. He could replace Powell. The IMF or something like that.

Well, let's break down the list of villains. The deep state. Here's a question. down the list of villains. The deep state. Here's a question. Let's do each one. The deep state. If I said to you, you have to name three, but you can't name more than three.

Three departments or agencies in the federal government that are clearly, undeniably, in the deep state. What is the top three to you? DOJ, CIA, and... i don't know the organization the entire deep state is doj no that's like their strongest foothold or most important foothold maybe okay that's kind of what i was thinking so levers do they control the most that are most effective? DOJ. State Department. Yeah, there you go.

I agree with those. I'd narrow it to FBI, CIA, and state. Okay. Yeah, I was thinking FBI, too, but I know DOJ does more than just. But if you want to be more specific, FBI. All right. Now, let's do it again on the warmongers. Okay.

Where's the three power centers for warmongering? That's a, I mean, you could say the Pentagon, I guess, but I don't want to blame them. There's people in there that are absolutely all for the war in Ukraine. They would have to be purged. That's for sure.

But they're supposed to be trained to kind of destroy shit. That's just kind of how it goes. They're under civilian control. Always have been. Always have been. So I'm not, I'm trying to look for other exact ones

in the civilian control to blame more. So that would be State Department. Yep. DOD and State. And who's the third? Gotta be CIA. Yeah, you can say that.

I was going to say the Treasury because all of them. So we're making the Venn chart tonight mentally. We're a radio show. No more CIA. So CIA and State are in the deep state. Deep end. As well as the warmongers.

What else? Next on the list, the communists. Ooh, that would be the financial arm. Would you say the treasury treasury in terms of seizing control of things like credit and property

maybe commerce is in there can you name ones that have more power or more important in terms of their takeover than the Commerce Department. Federally funded academia. Federally funded academia is an institution.

It's a quasi-department. Department of Education if you want to simplify it. Medicare and Social Security can they combine to be the well-being state? I'm thinking those agencies just pay out. They don't have the coercion that would be communist. So, neo-communist at least.

And then next on the list, Marxist. That would definitely be the Fed. Academia again. Academia again. Where else do the Marxists really shine? Department of Education. I would say State Department

again. Okay. State. And who else for Marxist? Academia. Federally funded Academia. And then Treasury. You name Fed. Fed is in this. So this bubble Federally funded academia. And then... You named Fed. Fed.

Yeah. So Fed is in this. Yeah, they would... That's with the Fed. So this bubble, this Venn chart's separate. It doesn't repeat any of the others. Oh, state. State's still in there.

Yeah. State's still in the center. Great job right now. And then fascists. The reason Hillary Clinton ran the State Department. Where's the fascists? Fascists. So this is where...

The merger of corporation and state. The big pharma sort of, like FDA maybe-ish? You think? Merger of corporation? All the farms and the government are merged? I would say FDA. FDA, yeah. The food medical complex?

CDC. It's kind of that. CDC, without a doubt. Yeah. And we're going to call Fauci that. Yesterday he denied to Congress that he had an effect on the policies of the CDC. He is the leading fascist, neo-fascist, by textbook definition in this century, in the world, what he accomplished during COVID. in the world what he what he accomplished during covid the merger of state and uh private business to you know bring about tyranny medical tyranny so we're putting cdc fda

who else is the fascist where are corporations deep deeply built into that has industrial complex well it has to come back to the regulators of Wall Street. That's true. SEC. Are they not beholden to powerful interests in the private sector? Definitely.

So SEC is making a couple of these bubbles. And finally, communist, Marxist, fascist, and then he goes off on... What was the other one? The media. Media. So now he's naming one of the institutions.

All right, let's do it that way then. If it's the media, which three agencies are most captured and have the greatest influence directly into controlling information censorship. In the last few years, it would be like the CDC, I think, would be one. They have so much control over the narrative. The media, yeah. Well, the FCC would be core to this. And the FCC was an independent agency established theoretically

with an even amount of the two parties that were in power in the 20th century, the Democrats and Republicans. So FCC, CDC, and really, really tight-knit with the media complex would have to be... State Department. Again, yeah. CIA too, though. Yeah, well, CIA, yeah i think cia catches that then then chart so there you go we gotta draw that someday i don't know where we could post it but uh maybe on our twitter feeds that there's a van of of all the villains top three in the opinion of

patriot power our host tonight, episode 265. We do have news blitzkrieg, but it's relatively low-key night for most indicators. So we'll be through that in a relatively short order. Get on with other business tonight, early summer.

Relatively calm, of course, except we have a sitting, you know, a former president and candidate for president, you know, facing a jail sentence in July. Yes, and that's something we're going to be talking about weekly up until the election and beyond the election, just the overall situation. situation, but I mean, as you noted a little bit last week, still seeing where it's going to play out, whether that's an appeal, whether it's the sentencing and that's what kind of dictate what happens on the dashboard more

than, you know, what we've seen. Yes, I haven't heard of all the scenarios that are potentially out in front, but the effect, even if they don't put them in jail, is to keep them off ballots, right? So the lawfare is now going into phase two,

working to keep them off of the right ballots. And, you know, you can't get electoral, you know, Biden will automatically get those electoral votes if they do that. So Alan Dershowitz comes out and says Trump is probably going to try to bypass the appellate division

and go directly to the Supreme Court. That makes sense. Yeah, it'd have to go through several layers in New York State. Right. Interesting to know how fast or slow that proceeds. There could be some judge who says hell no just ends it even there maybe not maybe they got that path paved with the right

plants in new york state yep yep so we will be getting to the news blitz and we got a lot more to cover anything else here in the next uh couple minutes what what else has been on your radar well from some of the legal analysis i heard coming out of that conviction the way some of these charges became felonies was to attach them to secondary charges some kind of legal voodoo like that could make them elevate to be felonies and apparently mandatory quality like if this and this happens mandatory it's a felony type of thing yeah and some of the talking heads on cable news you know came out and immediately identified that the the the court didn't the rulings don't have the verdict doesn't specify what the secondary crimes are so there's parts about this that are pure show trial kind of stuff that that there's going to be case law that is compared

against there's going to have to be judges somewhere along the line that to say all right just ignore all that precedent let this stand and and then the question is how high can it go and how long can it go on for before it's entirely overturned? It needs to be a minimal amount of time that it goes on. So it should absolutely be fast-tracked. But I don't know. Maybe that's not constitutional. Maybe a process has to be. What's constitutional these days?

I don't know what to say. But, man, this seems like it should just be brought out immediately by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court says it all the time. They get petitions for bringing suits straight to the supreme court all the time and usually it's assigned to one of the justices and they make the decision on their own and that's part of you know the chief justice's job is to pick you're going to answer this one you're going to answer that one so among the nine justices this is where john roberts has tremendous power well if there's one that should be expedited, I think it would be this one.

I don't know if that's even what the strategy is. Aren't there pictures of Roberts at Epstein Island? Well, Dershowitz was Epstein's attorney, so a lot of Epstein connections all around. Folks, we're going to be going to a real quick break. We'll be back on the other side with the dashboard patriot power hour ¶¶ Are you prepared to be the family doctor in a disaster or emergency?

The pictures tell the story This life had many shades

I'd wake up every morning And before I'd start each day I'd take a drag from last night's cigarette that smoldered in its tray Down a little something and then be on my way I traveled far and wide and laid his head in many ports I was guided by a compass. I saw beauty to the north. I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own. I have these memories all around me so I wouldn't be alone.

Some may be from showing up. Others are from growing up. Sometimes I was all messed up and didn't have a clue. I ain't winning no one over I wear it just for you I got your name written here in a rose tattoo In a rose tattoo In a rose tattoo

I got your name written here in a rose tattoo We are back, Patriot Power Hour, News Blitzkrieg. Tonight, Tuesday, June 4th we will go columns left to right starting with security Israel-Iranian war front fires rage in northern Israel after uptick in Hezbollah attacks foreign black ops

suspected former CIA officer pleads guilty to spying for the Chinese after uptick in Hezbollah attacks, foreign black ops suspected, former CIA officer, pleads guilty, to spying for the Chinese, call them on liberty, free speech is abridged, Supreme Court unanimously rules, against New York State, in NRA free speech case,

meanwhile, federal government attempts, to shut down, Alex Jones' Inf's info wars in bankruptcy dispute column three economics majority of middle-class americans struggling financially that is disappointing economic news initial jobless claims rise to nearly eight month high and software update glitch blamed yesterday for New York Stock Exchange

market break. Trading halted at least temporarily. Column four on the nature and medical front. Not much there. Southwest, though, will bake in first

heat wave of the season. Major records may fall. That's it for the Blitzkrieg, Ben. Not a lot of headlines out there. Again tonight, causing the type of concern that we usually have that goes on to future danger. Nevertheless, some of those headlines are, you know, in and of themselves, bad news, worthy of analysis.

Sure. I mean, we're going to go through all of them, I believe. Let's start with former CIA officer pleads guilty to spying for the Chinese. I consider that bad news. But it's almost like, oh, we all know that already. But that doesn't mean it's not important when it's certified oh it's truly occurring and it's you know a fact and that's why it's a really high rated article you know you know you know who we missed in the previous segment among trump's villains

okay the globalists globalists how can we forget it? Especially with Alex Jones' Infowars being trying to be shut down. The globalists. That's what he would say all the time. The globalists. Yeah, so. Let's do globalists real quick. CIA would be in it because they are infiltrated by the Chinese thoroughly, apparently. Yeah.

Put the Federal Reserve because it's the World Reserve currency and a global currency. And again, it has to come back to the State Department. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. The state's in the middle of them all, aren't they? That'll be an interesting event. They actually had the most, even more than CIA. They're like damn near, at least. Yeah, I think the fascists, we left the state out.

But anyways. Isn't that funny? The Dulles brothers, one was the Secretary of State, one was CIA? Absolutely. Interesting, interesting interesting uh yeah so federal government attempts to shut down alex jones i've been listening to a couple of his podcasts recently he's on still this hasn't happened correct and he's uh getting higher ratings than ever and i'm sure when they literally do shut down, if they do InfoWars, he'll still be on all types of different.

They're not literally going to stop his ability to speak, but definitely infringing on his free speech and trying to throw a lot of obstacles in his way, to say the least. I definitely bought a water filter from his site. I set that up, too. I like it. I'm not going to name the brand. They not a sponsor of prepper broadcasting network but the uh the basic products that are sold there and he's pitched for years i did i did actually just pull the trigger i think i saw you have one too right

i do i have that i have some a couple other uh supplements and things. And actually, I met him at Bilderberg Conference. You did? 2016. He was out there with a megaphone? He was. You get a picture? Shook his hand. No.

He was like, I don't know. It was just kind of like I was in passing. I was walking down the sidewalk real fast with a bunch of people. And then all of a sudden, he just passed right by me. I'm like, shook his hand. He went off. But he was like, he was hustling. He's a big guy.

A lot of energy, obviously. I have no idea who Alex is. I'm pretty sure he can just put ownership of a different place where he broadcasts into someone else's name and just continue. Right. They're just going to ban the name and use of his Infowars.com. Can't stop him from speaking on somebody else somewhere else. So a passionate, passionate broadcast from Infowars when news was breaking that they're trying to seize the business from him in his bankruptcy for Sandy Hook convictions in Connecticut.

So he shares that with Trump for sure. Absolutely. Also, the free speech line of sight. I mean, there's not that many headlines today, but half of them are red level. Yeah. High grade. So Supreme Court unanimously rules against new york state

an nra free speech case so so that's like a metric right but is it when when you have um obama appointees in the supreme court and it's still and biden appointee and it and it's still coming out unanimous look at what these states are doing i it's still coming out unanimous. Look at what these states are doing. I mean, when you're getting an unanimous Supreme Court, throwing out some legal position to advance through a state court, how often has that happened in our history, where states were sending up decisions that all of the Supreme Court members were just throwing out about the bill of rights

that is sort of a metric like the more that happens then it's just a matter of like a a tidal wave breaking against this bastion this seawall that is the supreme court and when personnel in the supreme court turn over then what because because the lower courts have abandoned any reason relative to the Bill of Rights. At least New York, California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Connecticut, there's plenty of states where this is going to start to become even more common. This ties back to the state of New York violating the First Amendment by pressuring insurance companies to cut ties with gun rights organizations. So not even gun manufacturers, gun rights. NRA was in here, but there were other organizations that were threatened as well.

And if you can't get insurance, it's pretty tough to run a business sometimes. Especially if some of that insurance might be mandatory but the state targeted the nra nra based on illegal insurance products therefore was justified in telling companies to seize its work for them that's what they argued that was denied unanimously so So anything that's, yeah, I get where you're coming from. Unanimous, 9-0, too good to be true. What's the catch? But this is a beatdown against Andrew Cuomo. He was the governor behind all this back in 2018.

This was pretty much a result of the Parkland, Texas shooting and it evolved from there. Yeah, five years later, justice. So that's what we have to put up with when these things come along. You're going to have to endure and hope that there's bodies at a higher level that find reason. Well, it happened this time in 2024. Fires rage

in northern Israel after uptick in Hezbollah attacks. Middle East has not turned into a total dystopian nightmare yet, but there's still tons of tension and there are operations going on in Gaza, etc. But Iran hasn't launched another wave but there's still tons of tension, and there are operations going on in Gaza, et cetera.

But Iran hasn't at least launched another wave at Israel or vice versa, so that's good. Right, right. And earlier we talked before the show about whether what's happening in Ukraine is worthy of the heat map. You know, the fighting might rage. It's probably going to rage every summer. But I don't see the paradigm shifting right now. I have seen articles that NATO is looking at ways to put F-16 instructors into Ukraine. But I'm kind of thinking that that's just a cover story that all they have to do is fly to Poland to get whatever they need. So what difference does it make now whether american designed and and european purchased and donated f-16 start striking

into russia that's another question what that would that would be an escalation i still don't see how that alone would you know upend upend the equilibrium we have right now. The two newer or at least worsening threats that I've seen that are making things potentially worse, number one is the attacks into Russia are increasing with more powerful weaponry now, too, as well. I'm not saying that's going to push us into nuclear war right away, but that is something that's increasing.

Yeah, if F-16s were launching cruise missiles or whatnot into Russia proper, that would be a problem. And then the... I'm not sure they can carry a cruise missile, not a problem. And then the... I'm not sure they can carry a cruise missile. Not a properly defined one, but significant strike munitions. They don't need cruise missiles to get close enough

and hit with joint strike munitions that are evolving to be more effective and smarter and less able to be jammed constantly. Like those J-Dams or whatever. It's not like a cruise missile. It's like a Mach 6 or something.

It might be able to attach one. Somebody probably tried. They said they could put tactical nuclear weapons on F-16s. I don't think they will, but... Miniature hypersonics. Miniature hypersonics are probably around the corner. Yeah. So that, you know, Miniature hypersonics are probably around the corner. Yeah. So, more advanced weaponry and more attacks with more munitions in Russia is definitely a problem.

And then, on the other side, from what I understand, Russia's lost a lot of men, but Ukraine has lost a ton too. And they have a way smaller population and had a way smaller army to start with seems like ukraine's kind of hitting some real manpower issues so does that mean they're going to start giving up ground or even lose the war of attrition and or and or is nato or other countries gonna start bringing some manpower in? It seems like the Ukraine manpower situation is getting worse each summer. Maybe they can maintain another summer,

but I don't know. If Ukraine shrunk its perimeter to just around the capital, the distance from where these oblasts or these Russian separatist republics of the donbass where where most of the russian military's you know been projecting force out of if the uh you know

they fell back that distance between the two is is a giant killing field and the russians have advanced that far before and and suffered massive massive losses so not everything comes from aircraft right the ground you know the ability to shorten your supply lines and and and infuse the russian or the ukrainian army with munitions it needs to make that just a absolute lopsided loss exchange ratio kill death ratio pick your term you know you know not in favor of the russians right when does the russian army bleed out and have to wait to you know bring in new recruits and train them that's what's going on it's it's going to go on it's it's resembling you know the types of battles that we saw in the pomme and Passchendaele. But in the 21st century, right, it's not just pure manpower on the ground. They're very dispersed compared to the First World War.

But the munitions and the ISR sensors finding people that are out of cover, that aren't bunkered in and can't withstand the hit, right? So it has features that resemble World War I, but it's entirely a 21st century, absolute modern munition, aerial sensor warfare. And how much can the Russians bleed before they can't? Both sides tried to bleed the other ones out, and I'm not sure who's bleeded out more, who has more blood to give.

They both seem like they're scraping the barrel. But maybe they can dig a little bit more. I would hope that as they got more and more desperate, they'd be like, okay, we need to sue for peace. Maybe we should stop this. But on the other hand, maybe they're going to get more desperate. Either side, really. Well, it's kind of why Trump can go ahead and say he'll end the war in 24 hours.

When he takes power after an election next January, in that scenario, both sides might be very well ready to... Neither side loses face. It'll be an armistice with a DMZ. That's the best we could ask for right now. And there's big pieces of Ukraine that are going to be lost to Russia for the rest of our lifetime, most likely. Honestly, a battle's as good as you could ask for.

I bet, as you said, neither side would admit it, but I bet if not by now, then another 6 or 12 months, 18 months, they would be pretty sick and tired of it. And they didn't have to lose face. They could both kind of go back to their people and be like, look what we won or we got what we wanted or whatever. Trump's able to act like the diplomat of that. That's the best case scenario. I would like that. That's the best case scenario.

I would like that. And one thing that's been just a framework for me that's hard to accept is all kinds of articles I've seen talking about NATO, NATO, NATO, NATO, doing things NATO. All right. So we're still in the nation state system, right? There's members of NATO and the commander of NATO is always American. right there's members of nato and the commander of nato is always american so to speak of nato as this other thing that can act is sort of defies reality that being said though there's intelligence agencies and special operations units in all the european countries and the british and the french and the germans the Germans in particular could easily undermine a kind of peace if factions within Ukraine won't accept it. And I don't think Zelensky's aligned up to accept a truce.

The hardest part of bringing about that truce would be to convince Ukraine that there's no more money, there's no more bullets, there's no more support. There would have to be some kind of peace guarantee from us that prevented South Korea from falling, right? We've always had to occupy. An occupation of the rump state of Ukraine would be something that Russia wouldn't accept. So I don't think. It's very far-fetched. I mean, that's a whole cautious belly for the Russians is the encroachment of NATO

alliance, right? So how this plays out and how this ends, I don't know, but I just don't have this fear tonight that we're going to see World War III emerge from no matter how bad the Ukraine battle gets. Economically.

Where are we at? Let's look at some numbers super quick and get into a couple of the articles. Relatively calm right now. Big debate in the campaign is Democrats telling everybody that the economy is great. And Republicans trying to convince everybody that it's bad and how it is on the average person on the street is, you know, it's a part of the information war in a big way. Oh, for sure.

There's a good portion of Americans that are still living pretty well, still able to go to the beach once a year, travel and buy some stuff, go out to eat once, twice a week, if not more. Stock market's pretty good. 401K is looking decent, even if you adjust for the official inflation numbers. Home values are high. Home values are still high.

There's a great example of a catch-22 where those who have a home are real happy and those that don't are getting not as happy but uh you know i see in my area which has had a nice increase in home values in my region of america but then you have these people who are quite wealthy and those the political ads targeted towards them are talking about how housing prices are too high yeah and you're like well that's a conundrum what are you gonna do about that it's like it's a big part of your asset but it's also too high um i feel like that's a relatively benign version of what the fed and the asset markets are looking at from like a big picture view or it's like, our debt is really high,

but for every piece of debt, there's an asset. So if we were going to retire all this debt or have this debt jubilee or forgive all this debt, well, then all these assets would disappear too. We can't have that. So it kind of stuck. Yep. What else economically is anything atypical? It looks like the deep state and the globalists What else economically is... Anything atypical? Are we just in a...

It looks like the deep state and the globalists and the fascists are holding the economy as high as it can be going into this re-election for Biden. You know, I saw some kind of crazy action with oil. I didn't really catch on to why, but it dropped more than 10% in the last couple trading days. Oil was ramping up. Let's take a quick look. Talk about a fascist market.

Well, oil is a lot lower than I would expect, and there's a lot of reasons for that. It's a strategic resource. It's controlled by every government that can control it in the tightest ways possible from price through the creation the distribution the use it's this this price action is you know why something drops 10 is because it's a you know there's nation states there's many of them there's many members in it uh opec and when they all act in their self-interest they're they're causing this illusion of a free market price but it's there's nothing free about it it's it's it's whoever happens to have the most control of it

at any point in time you know manipulate to their strategic advantage in In a way, I would agree with that, but I also argue maybe the opposite, maybe not, but it's... They always stab each other in the back, or they make these agreements, but they don't actually stick to it. It is a true commodity which, hey, these guys are having a little cartel while other parts of the

world can be like, well, I'm going to sell mine, and then the price will naturally go down. So it actually is kind of a free market, though it's also cornered it's a it's a top three weapon that trump has coming back in it's wiping out regulations that prevent the that cause the higher prices of of oil he think of all the prices he affects when he can lower all those input costs to industry. He did it before. It's there for immediately using at any anti-Democrat White House.

So from February of this year to end of April, oil went from 68 to about 88 bucks. That's legitimate, but in the last month, month and a half, it's dropped from 88 to 72, which is good news. It really is good news. And given all the stuff that's going on worldwide, not to mention just general inflation, like your $72 now

is like 50 bucks in 2018. Right. $50 oil back then was pretty cheap. And the last thing I wanted to say is when the Ukraine invasion happened and all that, oil went pretty crazy, not even all-time highs, though. Remember, all-time highs were like 2007, 2008, $150. That'd be like $250 now.

No kidding. So that's kind of crazy. So all that considered, inflation is still high. So what if oil did go to $200? Our inflation would be just nightmarish. Just keep that in mind. I don't think we've had 250% inflation since 2007. A little exaggeration there, but 30, 40, 50% more expensive since then.

Yeah. Let's look. From 2009, well, it's admitted, I think even the official numbers from 2020 to now, it's about 15% inflation. And I would say from 2009 to 2020, it'd be at least another 15 20 so sure 40 50 inflation from 2008 to 2024 i think is fair some might say a little higher but we're looking at it right now yeah spike it hit about almost exactly 150150 back in July 2008. And then there was a huge, huge collapse. Financial system, if you recall.

Financial crisis, that is. But anyway, it hit $130 when Ukraine popped off in 2022. And it was pretty high into the summer of 2022, if you remember. Then the strategic oil reserves were tapped. Somewhat political reasons, we would think. Anyway, I expected it to bounce and continue its rise into the summer of $100 plus. But it's done the opposite for now. So that is some good news.

It's just important to watch. What do you make of other economic indicators that we look at on a typical basis? I like to look at treasury yield, 10-year yield. I have that. I look at a lot. And it's relatively stable the past couple years. What I'm looking here is

if the yield goes super high, let's say above 5%, then all that debt that we're going through is just going to have so much more interest costs associated with it, as well as mortgages and auto loans. So the financial tyrants are controlling the price of oil well enough to re-elect Biden.

They're controlling the Treasury yield rates well enough. They're holding steady into this election. Which one of these economic indicators would you say they got holding steady into this election what where which one of these economic indicators would you say they they got no control over that if it just turns it nothing going into the election is going to be controllable from their end they'd like to say nothing right because they're globalists that's why they're globalists pretty good at control of this stuff they uh whether it's gold silver silver, oil, stock markets, they've been able to corner and control a lot of those.

And a lot of the large banks have paid a lot of fines in precious metal manipulation and other types. So which one would they lose control of or not have control of? I would say... Unemployment rate. Bitcoin's pretty high up there bitcoin's above 70 000 right now they obviously lost control of inflation yeah that's it's tougher i mean yeah inflation is something where they can do what they can to kind of vacuum it up but it'll permeate

the system and they can't only do so much. Which direction is the M2 money supply going lately? Contracting, which only happens before depressions. Because the interest rates are so high, relative, and the debt's already so high, that actually it's mostly like a plateau, but it's starting to drop, actually. Money supply in a Keynesian economy or system... Has to be expanding. Yeah, even like being 0% money growth over a year... The supply in a Keynesian economy or a system. Has to be expanding. Yeah. Even like being 0% money growth over a year.

Starts to break things. It's not viable really. But let's go look at it real quick actually. I know. Let's go look at it. Let's go look at it. So. Maybe while I look it up. Yeah.

Explain why you ask that or what you mean. Well, to my understanding, money supply is how much money is, quote, unquote, printed and put into circulation. Money supply before digital currency, a.k.a. 80s or earlier, was either accounts in banks or printed ones and zeros held in banks or actual bills and coins, right? And money supply was long understood to be a mechanism that the government can use to control the economy. So you're right. It dipped, and now it's plateauing. It's climbing a little bit. Now, we are using Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis data.

Yeah. using Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis data. Yeah. So, don't want to get too deep into it, but going back to, let's just say 2012. Why not? The money supply was $9.7 trillion. Currently, it's just under $21 trillion. So, more than doubled, the money supply.

So, of course, why wouldn't inflation almost double in a 10-year period if the money supply did? It doesn't work just like that. Kind of think of it that way. One thing I want to point to, I know the listeners can't view this, but look how it jumped right after COVID, all that emergency bailout. It went from $15 trillion to $18 trillion in just a few months. Went from $15 trillion to $18 trillion in just a few months.

Yeah, just made up a bunch of $3 trillion and handed it away to get a great big workforce on the dole. And from there, it stopped its exponential growth, but it was growing at quite a clip. But yeah, right when they started raising interest rates a little bit in spring, summer 2022, it flattened at about a peak of $21.6 trillion. Right now it's at $20.7 trillion. So it's dropped by $1 trillion in the last year or two. But again, even being flat is dangerous. They call it a flat line for a reason. In a debt-based economy, it has to grow.

That's why they say they want a 2% inflation. They don't want 0%. They target and they want 2% inflation. They think that's the ideal amount per year. But they're having the opposite. Not just disinflation, but deflation. Now it's kind of steady. Long story short,

this either has to reverse, meaning they have to print again and go to 0%, which is what I think they'll do in an emergency, or all the assets are going to have to kind of reprice themselves, which would mean 10, 20, 30, 40% drop in markets and other assets. Assuming there's not

some financial crash. 20, 30% repricing. That would be a crash. Yeah, but it wouldn't cause Armageddon. Not 1929 style outcome. Now the problem is everything's so leveraged in domino effect

that 20, 30, 40% drop that could be considered natural will actually turn into an 80 or 90% crash. And that's what we'll get, Ben. Well, I think we got some ads from our sponsors on that Prepper Broadcasting

Let's bring it full circle on Patriot Power Hour, episode 265, Tuesday, June 4th. It's the final battle, Ben ben where are we headed from here well we have uh what about five months till the election i am prepping my butt off this summer and trying to also get into shape because uh stuff hits the fan might be walking and hiking a little bit more so try to get in shape out there. A little advice. But I don't know.

It's going to be a long summer, but I think it will also go by quickly. So every day, get to prepping. That's what I'm taking out of it, one thing. Yep. And looking for opportunities on real estate, I assume. I've actually definitely been putting some Let's say Some searches and some favorites And some watch lists together

I'm not going to Try to time the market or anything But I'm looking at some areas And I would like to see A nice 10-20% reduction And I'll buy it up At some point you've got to buy it up And I need some space

A homestead or some extra space is great, even if I become underwater on my theoretical mortgage. If I've got 10 or 20 acres, who cares? I've got 10 or 20 acres. So I've seen advertisements off of this network for low-cost land out west with access to water. It's way out there, but it would be awesome out west. Yes. With access to water. It's way out there, but it would be awesome. Oh, man.

I don't know. If you add a zero to the price of Bitcoin or gold or silver, maybe I just have to do that. I don't want to totally get away from civilization, but I know in New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, there's a beautiful country out there. So it could be an option for people better be prepared if you're living in the remote parts of the country to you know there

there could be a real media blackout a real shutdown in connectivity especially if you connect to things and wide open spaces wirelessly so great point if you're prepared to be without communication with the outside world, then that's one thing. But if you're not mentally prepared, if not, you know, your preps and your, your,

your survival architecture requires information that that's something to think about. If you get too remote, people that go remote have to be able to live that way. And generally on this network, we're like, yeah, get out of the cities. Get away from people. That's the biggest problem after stuff hits the fan. But

if you actually live in a good community and have good neighbors and stuff, it's a big advantage. Let's just imagine you're out in the total middle of nowhere with no one else. You're an easy target if someone comes across you. But if you have kind of a network in your neighborhood, that can actually be a good thing. I don't know.

Each situation is different, I guess. We got another topic that we are negligent on, on Patriot Power Hour thus far. But maybe we can rectify that a little bit right now. Go for it. So if you would summon uh assistance of an artificial intelligence large language model got it and understanding that you know the information is only as good as the source so we're gonna we're gonna predicate it on this is from chachapiti's freeware model we would like to begin a conversation on looking at arms sales

so let's ask that what are the top arms exporting countries in the United States and see how recent and how accurate they give us that countries or companies

let's do both top 10 exporting or producing exporting say countries or companies? Let's do both. Top 10. Exporting or producing? Exporting. Weapons or military equipment? Weapons. Let's focus on weapons. List the top 10 weapons

exporters by country. Based in the US? No, just by country. Okay. And then list top 10 defense manufacturing firms worldwide by nationality. Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. I have percentages here, not the numbers. I should have perhaps listed more.

But U.S. is number one at 40% of total world exports. Mostly going to Saudi Arabia, Japan, Australia. I'm sure a lot to South Korea. Yeah, Ukraine, Taiwan, Israel. Well, yeah, now for sure. Business is good there. France, number two. Ahead of Russia.

France loves to be involved in world stuff, don't they? 11% share of global arms from France. India, Qatar, Egypt. Russia, number three, tied with France technically, I guess. China's four. China's four at 5.8, so wow. China's only half as large as Russia for now. Keeping it for themselves, maybe.

Just to be clear, French exports, to get them number two on the list, are predominantly to India, Qatar, and Egypt. Okay? Yeah. That's interesting. Ask that again. Ask it to do the top exporters. Don't put a number on it. And then ask it to indicate the top importers of that country's weapons.

Of each one? Yeah, by each one. The top importing country of the exporting countries listed above. Would that work, do you think? Might be confusing, but let's see what it does. It worked! U.S. to Saudi Arabia. France to India.

Russia to India. China to Pakistan. Germany to South Korea is interesting. Italy to Egypt. U.K. to Saudi Arabia. Back to Saudi Arabia. Spain to Australia. Spain's number eight of military equipment or weapons exporting-wise.

Ask it to revise with the top three per exporter. Because I want to see where Israel and Ukraine show up on U.S. Oh, okay. Revise to show the top three importers for each exporting country. Exporter. Yeah. Here we go. See, you know, trust the source, but. Damn, this shit works really good.

It's fast analysis if you trust it. There are. Prove. There are annotations here, too. Digital Capitalist and who else? Euronews. Some of these sources. But the United States

is coming in again first. Top three are Saudi Arabia like before. Japan, Australia. France, India, Qatar, and Egypt. We knew that earlier

because it spat that out. Russia goes to India, China, and Egypt. China goes to Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Thailand. That's interesting. Germany goes to South Korea, Greece, and Algeria. Greece.

Italy goes to Egypt, Turkey, and Qatar. UK to Saudi, Oman, and the United States. We import top three of what UK makes. That makes sense with British Aerospace is a major US firm also in our structure. Let's get into that top 10 defense contractors by country. Spain was also in there to Austria, Turkey, and Greece. Israel exporting to India, Vietnam, and Azerbaijan. South Korea to Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand.

Sort of a web there of alliances on the arms trade front, right? You've got to be friendly with countries to do that. Ready? Oh, this is worldwide. Let's do it. Lockheed Martin, number one. $63.3 billion in defense revenue. Mainly from advanced fighter jets.

Number two, Raytheon, which apparently was renamed RTX. It was. $39.6 billion. Northrop Grumman, $32.4 billion. Stealth bomber and other aerospace technologies. So the top three are U.S. But just as big as Northrop Grumman is China's Aviation Industry Corporation of China. How do you value Chinese state-owned military?

But it is what it is. They say it's about the size of Northrop Grumman. U.S. dollar denominated values. That's how. Yeah, I mean, I guess they just try to estimate how much equipment it produces and value it in American dollars. But Boeing, $30.8 billion. Number five, Boeing.

Yep, number five, Boeing. General Dynamics, about the same size. B-A-E. There you go, British Aerics. Number six. About the same size. BAE. There you go. British Aerospace. Alright. China North Industries. Number eight. China makes four and eight on the list. L3

Harris Tech. That's American. And China South Industries Group. So out of top ten, there's six American, three Chinese, and one British. I want to real quick list the top ten Russian defense contractors that they even have any. I don't know. That's going to be a bizarre list of names you can't pronounce.

Oh, geez. Well, we're running towards the end of the show. Before we leave, anything else you want to hit on while I pull this up? Ask it what countries Russia, China, and North Korea export in common to, and ask it what United States, France, and UK export in common to. I like it. I like it. Super quick, on this Russian one I searched, there's no valuations

of these companies. I actually expected that with China where it's like, well, here's their top ones but we're not able to really do it. But for Russia, they don't give a dollar value.

China, they do. Kind of interesting. You wanted to, which, you wanted to adjust to the US? Just give them the top Russian. What's the name of that company? United Shipbuilding Corporation.

And they make what? Pretty much all of the warships for the Navy. There you go. Followed up by the company that makes the S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems. And then the actual jets and then the helicopters from there and then tanks. Yeah. The actual jets and then the helicopters from there and then tanks. Yeah, so next and final question for the arms trade analysis on Patriot Power Hour, episode 265.

Let's search what the country that is exported to most by U.S., U.K., and France and then ask it in the same response, just hit a period, and tell it, next, do the same for Russia, China, and North Korea. Then you can ask me here again. Just do the same for Russia, China, and North Korea. All right.

This will be interesting. The most weapon exports, or is that the proper way to say it? Recipient, yeah. China, Russia, North Korea? Yeah. I'm thinking Iran showing up on one of these. Here we go. Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

US, UK, and France, their number one customer is the US. US, UK, and France, their number one customer is the US. Saudi Arabia is showing up in India. Saudi Arabia and India seem to share a lot, but especially Saudi Arabia. Alright, so US, UK,

and France export to Saudi and India the most. On the other side of the coin, China has Pakistan, Russia has India, and North Korea has Iran. So they have their channels there. And the interesting thing is India is on both sides. That's something I learned from this for sure. Iran is known to be a significant recipient

of North Korean military technology and arms. They must be ahead of Iran or maybe they mutually exchanged. I didn't really think North Korea really exported anything. They try. When they're not inspected and they can take it over land

and not put it at sea and it can get there if China lets it happen. Jeez, I mean, you got made in China and now you got made in North Korea. I want to trust my life to it, but I'm sure it could blow some stuff up. We got to get out of here. Great show. It was.

We covered a lot of topics from Trump's election video, released right after his conviction, and all the way to the arms trade networks of global status quo. Good show, Ben. Great show. Be back next week, all right? Let's do it. Thank you.
