The American Pronunciation Guide Presents ''How to Pronounce Cuban Refugee'' Not too long ago, two friends of mine were talking to a Cuban refugee, a businessman who had escaped from Castro. And in the midst of his story, one of my friends turned to the other and said, we don't know how lucky we are. And the Cuban stopped and said, how lucky you are. I had some place to escape to. And in that sentence, he told us the entire story. If we lose freedom here, there's no place to escape to. And in that sentence, he told us the entire story.

If we lose freedom here, there's no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth. This is the last stand on Earth. The last stand on earth. Sous-titrage ST' 501 ¶¶ You are now listening to the Patriot Power Hour. This live episode features the situational awareness you need to practice self-reliance and independence. and independence. Introducing your hosts, Ben, the Breaker of Banksters, and Future Dan, the editor of FutureDanger.com. Patriot Power Hour. We are live, episode 281, October 9th, 2024. Ben, the Breaker of Banksters here with future Dan and the dangerous news is all in column 4 almost all in column 4 tonight

natural this is the eve of hurricane crashing into the Tampa Sarasota region tonight landfall expected 9pm and it is predicted to hit at category 4 region tonight. Landfall expected 9 p.m. and it is predicted to hit at category 4. Happening right now.

That's Milton. Obviously still working through unfortunately recovery of bodies. 232 dead from Helene about 7-10 days ago.

So working through that, but a new one, Milton coming through. It was actually a Category 5 and then has dipped down a little bit, but this one looks pretty bad future, Dan, and it's not because of the rain, it's more the storm surge on that low lane beachfront

property in Tampa and Sarasota. So we'll hit the headlines. Not typical to have column four contain the preponderance of headlines, at least not since COVID lockdowns. And we have that tonight. So we'll save the precise facts for segment two like we always do but what we sometimes don't do is talk about headlines that we can't find and there's a major controversy right now not not finding itself on the heat map dashboard pretty much for lack of a reliable headline, at least a well thought out one.

But there is talk of a web weather weapon being exposed by these two earthquakes. But like many things that are, yeah, like many things that are widely disbelieved and marginally believed, it's hard to and White House is picking up on that to point out the ridiculousness of the claim. Alex Jones, and apparently Infowars, not yet shut down or auctioned off, I should say, right out there saying that these hurricanes are weather manipulation. Again, no articles to point to that verify this in any reasonable way. But this hurricane, Milton, is coming from Mexico to the west coast of Florida, the opposite

direction of any hurricane in our lives, Ben. In fact, I thought it was unique and strange that the weather, I think it was the weather channel or AccuWeather, was pointing out that only twice in recorded history has a hurricane moved from west to east, at least one of this intensity. And they cited 1800s, a pair of them in the 1800s, about seven years apart, that reportedly moved from west to east. Milton picked up from a tropical depression to a storm to a Category 5 with one of the tightest eye walls you'll ever see on radar. In like 24 hours, it is headed west to east.

So it's not a typical hurricane. A lot to unpack there. I'll start by saying I remember a couple hurricanes coming from east to west, kind of curving under Florida, then maybe going north, northeast a little bit, and crashed into the Gulf Coast. But I don't remember one starting that far west, coming all the way past Yucatan Peninsula, all the way through past Cuba, bam, right into Florida, and it started there, and it happened so quickly. Now, I mean, we could talk about this literally for a whole hour, and we will talk a lot about this.

I'm going to start with can they manipulate the weather? I think that should be a separate question from are they doing that right now to the hurricanes so i think it's a lot easier to find evidence to support that they've at least experimented with in many different ways many countries many militaries many governments have experimented with changing the weather from cloud seeding to manipulating the ionosphere and everything in between even like you know i don't know the exact altitude but higher than commercial jets fly they tested nuclear weapons in in the 50s and 60s they blew up atom bombs maybe even hydrogen bombs

like a hundred thousand feet in the air. So was that an experiment for weather or did they just gather data from what occurred there and then were able, you know, long story short, I feel that they have the ability to manipulate at some degree the weather. Now, are they actually doing that right now? And to what degree can they change it? Maybe they can only make it go from a category four to a category five or conversely from a four to a three i don't think they can just like gin them up out of nowhere and just throw one right at a at a country that seems a

little bit too crazy but maybe they can ratchet it up a little bit. Maybe they can steer it within a 50-mile area, right? Maybe nudge it certain directions. So can they do it at all? Compared, and there is evidence that they've tried, and I could go write a book about it, I guess, but I think there's other people that have got a lot deeper into that than me. But then separate, are these hurricanes, the last two, a product of that?

That one, we can't answer that or really even try to go into that right now unless you want to go into who would benefit from that. You could try to reverse engineer it with who benefits, but we don't get too much into that here on Patriot Power Hour, do we? into that here on Patriot Power Hour, do we? Well, unless there's facts that make speculating on any aspect of that logical.

I guess I'm very hypothetical off the cuff. We're not just going to jibber-jabber off the cuff come up with reasons like, oh, well, it's going to hit more Republican areas, so it's definitely the Democrats trying to kill Republicans before the election. Like, okay, that might be a little over the top, really hard to build a case there in

of itself, and we're not going to spend a lot of time on that. But, again, I believe that they have secret and top secret abilities to change the weather. It's just to what degree, and are they doing it right now? I can't answer that. Well, I can speculate, but before I did, I would say that the two cases where a powerful storm like this in the Gulf of Mexico originating on the coast of Mexico and then heading east are apparently 60 years before the invention of radar. So what kind of report is that anyways? Like, what are the newspaper accounts? What are the written accounts in the 1880s or so when this supposedly happened?

You know, it's not very reliable, right? You know, how well do they know exactly how the storms traveled, you know, in those days across the Gulf of Mexico? Should a military research whether this is possible? Damn right. Right. Obviously, right? The same reason chemical weapons and biological weapons are researched is to be fully aware of what might be brought against you and to plan for a defense from it, right?

So the way geopolitical state power is wielded in the past two centuries, you know, really four centuries, five centuries with nation states, it's inevitable that it should be attempted to know whether it's possible. To what degree can a Category 5 storm be generated, or if it emerges naturally manipulated, and how it would be done? Right, so there's the problem. Let's see some facts. Even if it's physicists that could lay down the theoreticals on how that could be done. Right? We don't see headlines of it.

But perhaps that's telling. Because it is possible and it's all classified. I love data. I'm a data guy. A data set I would love to see is solar activity, solar cycles. Just remember five, six months ago, solar storms inbound. The sun is at its peak or damn near its peak and has been over the last few years of a solar cycle and

they have super cycles right now so i think that is reasonable explanation right now there you go so add that together it could be just that it could be man-made it could be just these things happen in the law of large numbers sometimes two crazy things happen at the same time and having two major hurricanes isn't that totally out of bounds uh with so much tension in the world right now especially around election season it sure as heck seems a little more than a coincidence but things happen but the solar cycle solar activity i just really want to point that out and you made it i mean it's there is like you said there's a storm pretty much going on right now, and that has to have some effect, I think, right?

So think of a number of variables that go on to create a Category 5 hurricane on a particular track, right? I mean, there's no way you're ever going to convince me that all those variables can be controlled by, by, by humankind. No way. But that's not the same as saying that none of them can. Right.

So it, it takes a flexible mind to entertain, you know, what, what's the parameters of what's possible. But, uh, you know, Cat 5 hurricanes can obviously happen naturally and always did, always will, and it doesn't really matter the source of how it got to where it's going tonight.

It's going to damage Florida very badly with storm surges that are going to just absolutely sink Tampa. Let's try to keep it to two or three minutes because we're going to go to break and come back with a dashboard of a little thought experiment. Let's look on the other side of the graph, the other side of zero if you're looking on the scale. Let's talk about stopping a hurricane or muting it or turning it away.

Everyone's talking about can they accelerate it or make it worse or steer it. What about couldn't they try to destroy it somehow? They make the joke about Trump saying, nuke it. Not saying that, but the fact that they're not trying, they should be making a big effort. Like, we're going to fly these missions into it and try to disrupt it. We may not be successful, but we're going to try to save Tampa. That would be like a huge PR, you know, double thumbs up.

The fact they're not even trying that is kind of weird. I don't know. Just a thought. Well, the only way to really prevent it would be to cool the oceans, right? Because these come from hot water. So heating the water, that creates the energy. So you have to cool the water. But heating the water in a specific spot with some kind of directed energy, weaponry,

it's not absolutely unthinkable that people would have thought of that. Supposedly that was HAARP out of antenna arrays in Alaska, et cetera. There's been a lot out there on this. None of it substantiated to my satisfaction but if you don't know tampa is home of mcgill air force base the headquarters for u.s central command as well as u.s special operations commands very very important air base which houses those joint commands. So if you're going to talk about the they, the big anonymous boogeyman they that never seems to get

named adequately while conspiracies are speculated upon, if it's even possible, would it not make sense for an adversary to do it at that military base during an election? Could be.

I think in this past week, I don't have the clip, but Hillary Clinton said, we're going to lose control. We, the we she's talking about is the they I'm talking about in the conspiracies. In this past week, I don't have the clip, but Hillary Clinton said, we're going to lose control. We. The we she's talking about is the they I'm talking about in the conspiracies. Whoever we is in her mind. Anyway, we're going to break.

Coming back with the dashboard. We've got a lot more to talk about. Patriot Power Hour. Stick with us. We'll be right back. The ravens in the sky The king shall deceive We have come into the night Thunder and rays in war and night We have come into the night

Thunder and rays in war and night We will fight! Patriot Power Hour Interception patriot power hour interception february 25th 2020 episode 85 why can low interest rates be bad in lay layman's terms, think of it as adrenaline. If you're running on adrenaline at all times, that is really taxing the system. And really, it could kill you. Sometimes you need adrenaline if there's a medical emergency. That can keep the patient alive, right? Bam, right in the heart like Pulp Fiction.

But guess what? You can't be having that all the time we're not just seeing emergency measures we're seeing unprecedented emergency measures very low interest rates for prolonged period of time they simply lead to bad and poor allocation of capital slash resources malinvestment those investors whether it's your pension fund, whether it's 401k, whether it's foreigners who buy a lot of our debt, by the way, all those folks, they want to get a return. And guess what? When inflation is actually higher, even though they say inflation rates low, it's not this low and the lower these rates go

it just means inflation is much and much higher where does that end? just ends in the total unfortunately the total destruction in an exponential fashion of any mathematical model We are the Prepper Broadcasting Network. Lone survivor, alas, they got me in the sights No surrender, no trigger, fingers go Living the dangerous life Hey, hey, hey, every day when I wake

I'm trying to get up, they're knocking me down Chewing me up, spitting me out Hey, hey, hey, when I need to be saved You're making me strong, you're making me stand Outro Music Time for the News Blitz. The dashboard here on Patriot Power Hour, episode 281, October 9th, 2024. We will get back into the hurricane, the hurricanes even. Talk about Helene and what's going on there still. But Milton forming as well.

Let's go ahead and start with other news. Because there's definitely some stuff going on. And while this hand's doing this, what are the other hands doing? start with other news because there's there's definitely some stuff going on and what's while this hand is doing this with other hands doing what we got to make sure we pay attention to everything head on a swivel so here we go middle east people are still waiting to see if israel is going to take the the big leap and target Iran's nuclear facilities, etc. It has not occurred in the last week. But Israeli jets mount another attack on Damascus.

They've been bombing Lebanon quite a lot on October 7th, which was just a couple days ago. There were rockets shot into Israel. But it was kind of a tit-for-tat overall, and nothing has escalated, at least seemingly, in the last week compared to where we were. We have seen massive escalation in the last few weeks, though, starting with those pager bombers. though, starting with those pager bombers. Afghan National, who entered U.S. on special visa, charged with plotting Election Day

massacre. That's something to keep an eye on for sure. Texas demands federal government verify nearly half a million unverified voters. Other states trying to crack down on voter rolls, making sure they're up to date, accurate. Or if you listen to the liberals,

absolutely discriminatory threats to democracy for keeping the voter rolls clean. I don't know. Pick your, you decide, listeners of Patriot Power Hour. But the Texas government is demanding that the feds verify nearly half a million unverified voters. So state and federal pitted against each other. Economically, markets somewhat flat over the last week. Oil up a little.

It's at 73 bucks. Gold and silver down slightly, but almost flat as well. So everything except for the national debt is pretty flat. National debt skyrocketing. Bitcoin just above $60,000. Gold $2,600. Silver $30.47. Under the indicator gas lines form,

1,300 Florida gas stations run out of fuel ahead of Hurricane Milton. So, there's a reason to keep a fuel stash in a safe manner, of course. NBC guy always talks about rotating his gas, using his sheets rewards and all that. Well, you better at least have enough gas to get out of town. about rotating his gas, using his sheets rewards and all that, well, you better at least have enough gas to get out of town, and sit in traffic for hours and hours, all right, let's see,

couple, there are a couple natural news type of articles here, besides hurricanes, we'll hit those, then we'll just jump right back in the hurricanes 200 feared buried alive and unfortunately dead now in large landslide in brazil so these things happen everywhere dust storm triggers 60 car pile up in Idaho. There you go. We alluded to it.

Strong solar radiation in progress. Severe geomagnetic storm watch in effect. We've been getting hit from the spring all the way through the summer and even now with very high levels of solar radiation. Embryos being made without eggs or sperm. Under nature is re-engineered. I would think so.

That's pretty much the basis of nature being re-engineered. Holy cow. We'll certainly jump into that. Now time for Megastorms Mall. Already have some tornadoes in florida even on the east coast east coast is going to get hit pretty hard too of course storm surge is going to hit west coast a lot worse was a category five looks like it's down to a four and potentially down to a three when it hits land it's pretty darn near hitting land now but 9m. Eastern, it's about 7 to 30 Eastern right now, so an hour and a half or so.

Yucatan Peninsula already got hit a bit. Of course, Helene, really that disaster in that region is still being assessed, let alone recovered from. Of course, Helene, really that disaster in that region, still being assessed, let alone recovered from. 232 dead across six states, many missing still. Just devastation, it's pretty crazy. Certainly some podcast episodes you need to listen to on this network

Prepper Broadcasting Network over the past week or even going back 10 days ago around Prepper Camp and all this is going on go back in the archives if you haven't listened to them yet how you can help with recovery efforts and all that

and also maybe some lessons learned. NBC guy was very thankful for some things he did, but also said, you know what, this is some things probably should have been done differently next time. So as preppers, we're all preppers, right? Got to look at it that way. And future Dan, it looks like that's the news blitz for the day. October 9th.

Yeah. Column 4 dominates. So in the gas lines forming economics, that's an economic indicator, but it's clearly related to the storms, right? I realize that the indicators available designed in the future danger, there isn't one for gas being unavailable. Flat out, there is no gas in a region. So gas lines forming, yeah, there's probably not a lot of lines right now.

Everybody knows they can't get gas. So that's a little bit of a misfit was the best place to put it but economically we don't have any other news all the government reported figures are as rosy as possible right now so there's a gigantic other shoe to drop so at some point in the future gigantic other shoe to drop at some point in the future. And all is well enter the new fiscal year, right? And we can just

keep on spending at this point. No government shut down looming. The strikes at the port's been pushed off a little longer, so all clear. And I'm being a little facetious here, but in a way, hey, they have cleared the way at least until November, until Election day it seems what i actually saw a report today that interest rates on homes

for mortgages it went up after the fed cut how about that damn i'm hoping they'll cut again in november and then i might make a purchase of something or other. But I can see why interest rates are similar to hurricanes, although a lot different. Only an economist like me would say they're similar to a hurricane. But there's a lot of variables, a lot of things that affect them. And you also got to remember, just like a weather forecast, they're always looking into the future, and if they change their forecast or something happens now that changed the forecast that's already built in, that's when you get a big commotion.

So that's bad. I guess what I'm trying to say is that's a bad thing. In there, in the banksters' view, they're trying to lower rates, but rates are going up. That means something's broken. Maybe they pushed it too far. We'll be covering this down the line. Don't worry.

So where do you want to go next in this wide array of threats that we're going to discuss on Episode 281, Patriot Power Hour? I got a question for you. Let's just dive right into this article. This is literally the headline. They were made without eggs or sperm. Are they human? This is under nature is re-engineered.

What's your thoughts on that, and is this something you ever would have expected in your lifetime, and how this something you ever would have expected in your lifetime, and how would you answer that? So first, can you describe for the audience what this article is talking about, like what the scientists actually did? All right, from stem cells, and I'm not going to define really what stem cells are, but stem cells can become many different types of cell. They're kind of like the primordial cell.

There you go. That's what you get for being lame and like me. pretty much resembled what human embryo looks like 14 days after development, after the joining of the sperm and the egg 14 days later. You got a little tiny, tiny embryo, right? They were able to mimic that and get to that same level without the egg and the sperm, just using stem cell, just manipulating that stem cell. Now, they're not saying that they can continue past 14 days and turn this into a human,

but 14 days is pretty impressive. They're partway there. Not yet. It gets a little more difficult as time goes on, I'm sure. It gets a little more complicated of an organism. 50, 100, 150, 500 years from now, who knows what they'll be able to come up by then.

So how did I do on the explanation and what kind of thoughts you got on this? I don't consider this to be a human at all, but they're asking the question, maybe just laying the foundation for future transhumanism or genetic manipulation. What do you got to say about that? Well, they're telegraphing the potential for clones and parentalist births, right?

Just completely artificially conceived human life. And I think that's a reality that we have to come to grips with. That will be coming. And even if we can ban it and successfully enforce a ban against it in our country and in other civilized countries, a big, big swath of the world will always seek to accomplish this. And I'm thinking of China, number one. Me too. So how it carries over into a new dimension of biological warfare

is what we all have to be caring about. This stuff's possible, and they're proving it. This stuff's possible, and they're proving it. And this is kind of a slippery slope, or it can start with good intentions and go downhill pretty quickly, I think. I feel like a world-class athlete that tore their Achilles but can get some stem cells and recover in six weeks instead of six months or having to retire. You could say, okay, that's

great. Maybe some people, I mean, a lot of people are totally against that in of itself, too, because what are the sources of these stem cells and all that. So maybe some people aren't cool even with that. But assuming you're like, okay, I want my star quarterback to come back

this season and I want stem cells, or if you're like, okay, I want my star quarterback to come back this season and I want stem cells, or if you're like Joe Rogan, admit you go to Mexico or Colombia, get stem cells to regenerate injuries and to recover and to stay young. So that's a little bit of a slippery slope. But then it gets worse and worse and worse. And before you know it, you're going to have, I mean, science fiction does a great job of

talking about uber mention and clone armies and all types of diseases that can be spawned out of this i mean think of what kind of pandemic might be able to be grown out of this so it runs the whole gamut science fiction is becoming more and more science fact but the answer to this question I don't consider this human I think it's pretty flat but it comes from the Atlantic who's to say we don't use a bankster organization

news media mainstream media against themselves that's what we're doing here they're just teleg in the future. This is a form of predictive programming. It won't be a case of quarterback it'll be you. It'll be you to do. Right.

Your youthfulness or your lifespan right and they'll come from human beings that were sacrificed you break it up a little bit i think it's like the yo-yo rubber band effect effect of either cell phone or skype who got the we got the gist of it so we'll try to make sure that you come back in. Agree that the main reason most people will be for this technology is life extension or saving

their own life from fatal disease. Hard to say. I wouldn't want that to save my life if I'm actually in that circumstance and you will die in one year or you take these and we can guarantee you'll live at least five I mean

you gotta make a tough decision but I think it's too good to be true and I don't trust the people in charge of this shit number one technology itself is one thing but I don't trust the people behind this same people behind COVID and the vaccine and all that so that's enough for me right there.

Yeah, and stem cells come from the unborn. So lives were sacrificed in an incredibly uncivilized way. If you believe in life at conception, this is, this is not, uh, you know, the article that we're, we're talking about tonight right now, you know,

how the scientists did this and they, they, they said this raises ethical, ethical concerns. Well, there's ethical concerns with creating embryo embryos to harvest their stem cells in the first place. Of course.

Yes, definitely. And even if they try to come around that it'll be just like uh just like the abortion debate but it'll be another level genetic manipulation they'll be like do you own your body should you be allowed to get genetic manipulation of course you should i could I can see that right down the pike. Anything else you wanted to cover on this? This is an interesting article. From a neutral, scientific-focused point of view, super interesting.

But again, I know who's driving this research, who's using this, who's experimenting on we the people, and they're the same people that did COVID. That's all you got to know. Yep. So some other headlines that aren't on the heat map dashboard but perhaps are worthy of discussion, raging debate whether FEMA is actually blocking a response to Helene. And last week I gave you the middle-of-the-road kind of explanation of what FEMA's role is, right?

What they're supposed to be able to do. And just before we aired tonight, the Florida governor was on the news answering some reporter's question about this. How will Florida interact with FEMA? And DeSantis clearly said, we're in charge. This is Florida. FEMA supports us.

There's no, you know, turning to FEMA to prevent things or to solve things that the state can't. So it's been raging in the last week. You know, all kinds of stories coming out about FEMA, you know, preventing a response. And what I think that is, is a combination of, you know, incompetent people inside of FEMA, insensitive, and maybe malicious, some malicious people inside of FEMA, crossing paths with a news environment where any opportunity to say something outrageous, to try to provoke a response from pro-government Democrats, it's an election year.

And all I know is I've seen videos of Blackhawks flying over staging areas, blowing everything away. And I'm thinking to myself, that could be a handy disinformation tactic. Honestly, that could be. Somebody in one of those state national guards coordinates with some other guys they know on the ground, and they full well stage an incident and then blame it on FEMA to blame it on the Biden-Harris administration.

And just so much, you can't be certain of what you're seeing, right? And I'm sure there's people there that are going back and be like, no, no, no no no no it really was happening and i think in certain pockets there probably are malicious people in fema that are happy to go down there and make things worse the uh the fog of war must be real dense down there so there's certainly mistakes going on or i could see why the the authorities would say don't come in don't try to help just give us your stuff we're way more efficient we'll probably have to come rescue you if you try to go help from a common sense

point of view i can see like okay like a little bit of that is good but also what is the sheriff supposed to do if things are out of control? Get the posse together. Get the militia together. Allow the citizens who have the will and the equipment to try to help do that. And it seems like FEMA is definitely like, this is our jurisdiction at a minimum. They're doing that type of crap. But like you said, it could be be worse at least in certain circumstances um i'm not going to a fema camp so

be sure you can either bug out or bug in and don't go to the fema camp that's my advice desantis came around and said fema doesn't have authority for any of that in Florida tonight. So they can stockpile the supplies, and the state of Florida will take it from there. I do like that. I like it. But that's how it's designed to be. That's what Congress intends FEMA to be. Well, that's what the state is supposed to be,

kind of a counterbalance to federal just in the general sense too. So, yeah, it's great. Well, that's what the state is supposed to be, kind of a counterbalance to federal, just in the general sense, too. Yeah, it's great. I like that. I want more state power. I don't want all state power, but I certainly don't want all federal power, and it's been swinging to the feds quite a bit, it feels like, the last 30 years.

I don't know. I haven't been around that long, but it feels like the federal government's grown a little bit since 9-11. But when Katrina happened in 2005, the obvious George W. Bush opponent's choice was to blame him for not having FEMA rescue all of New Orleans, which was never designed to. It was never going to be able to do that. Not for category five and Katrina, it was a more powerful storm than, than Milton is tonight, by the way. And that whole narrative that, that, that, that exercise in, in, in, in that side of the political spectrum, just, just assuming that we had an agency that was perfectly capable of

stopping the results of such a terrible storm, it's just so misleading. It's not designed for that. It can't do that. We have no such federal emergency agency that could ever manage better than the state itself. And I think if you fall into that narrative, you misunderstand how it's designed by Congress to

even function. I'm usually a fan of decentralized things, but having a little coordination at the top sounds good in theory. I want to hear some more of what... Yeah, but the top is the state. The top is the state where it happened. There is no top above that.

Wow. I think DHS would say otherwise in a martial law situation, but I'm glad there's governors like DeSantis that would say, actually, I call your bluff on that. I'd like to see what happens, but hopefully it won't be Civil War. Let me help you put that into perspective. What's the largest football stadium capacity we have in this country? Michigan, University of Michigan?

Yep, I was going to say Michigan is like 100 or 110. capacity we have in this country. Michigan, University of Michigan. Yep. I was going to say Michigan is like 100 or 110. Yeah, I think Cowboys is probably 80 or 90, something like that. Okay. Yeah, so if you took every person in the U.S. military that has an infantry occupation, including slight variance in different services, but, you know, trigger pullers. They would all fit in that football stadium.

That's kind of crazy to think of. And if you took all the police forces and DHS federal law enforcement, police forces and DHS federal law enforcement. They would be less than that amount, but certainly not two stadiums worth. That's the totality of that kind of military and paramilitary force that exists in this country on a normal basis, right? in this country on a normal basis, right? You'd have to scale up all those arms with conscription to get anywhere close to the manpower during Vietnam or Korea or World War II.

You'd have to have conscription. Volunteer forces, which is what police forces are and what our armed forces currently are. There just aren't that many. So DHS could argue as though that they could show up in a state and impose its martial law. They don't have the manpower. It doesn't exist. Obama did say at one point he should have a civilian force just as strong,

just as powerful as the military. I wonder if the 20, 30, 40 million illegals over the last 10 years, some of that might be conscripted. It would have to be something crazy, like literally nuclear war or a tsunami weapon that took out one of the coasts, or a meteor, or a pandemic that literally

did kill 25 30 of the population not one percent so i absolutely hope that doesn't happen you know how mad max you want to get just things to talk about i you know i want to keep the feds at bay i don't want states to be too powerful either, but I'm definitely more worried about the Fed, so I'm on DeSantis' side here. I'll tell you that. It would take less than that to bring about a conscription situation, but now you'd be diluting the effectiveness, the training, the conscripted army. I mean, there's a reason after Vietnam we don't do that anymore, right?

True. In any event, major natural disasters crossed the eastern United States the last two weeks, and we keep watching news on all channels, all fronts, and economically it's eerily quiet. Yeah. In the Liberty column, eerily quiet. I think we say this a lot on Patriot Power that, you know, watch out a week or two weeks from now and try to notice what we're not even talking about anymore because all the new threats have you know they're not new but

they've they've they've heated back up again they blinked back on right and i think that's going to be incredibly true i mean we've gone this far into episode 21 haven't even spoke about trump's security situation again right he? He was in Butler again. True. Behind several layers of glass, this time, I might add, bulletproof podium. So, you know, what comes next is anybody's guess, but there's a pretty wide array of threat indicators

that you and I have been tracking all summer, all of them likely to come right back. The Supreme Court is going to start having rulings in its fall term. Some of those rulings could be, if they're decided wrongly, be very detrimental to your Bill of Rights. Watching it all, Ben. Yeah, we definitely are. A couple weeks on the 23rd of October,

I guess if things go as planned, you never know, but it'll be episode 283. Today's 281. On the 23rd of October, we're planning to have ourselves kind of an election special. I'm going to do my homework.

I'm going to get us 10, 15 minutes of clips from our shows. Pretty much. I'm going to aim for October, 2020 to mid Jan, maybe just inauguration. So mid January, 2021,

you know, maybe even into early February. Just to really look for any trends or get an idea of what we were talking about, what the world was looking like, what the news trends were looking like. We'll kind of review that and talk about the election coming up as well and see what that comes with. So I'm looking forward to that. I'll take care of business there.

Yep. Meanwhile, southern border absolutely overrun this year. The amount of people in this country that are illegal is untold millions. How the vote is stolen, if it's stolen, it won't resemble 2020. It could be all kinds of novel techniques that are exposed. But I think the amount of people looking for it and the amount of people ready to report on it, the amount of people that are not ready to stick their head in the sand

and pretend like it isn't happening again is happening again is, uh, you know, at an all time high as well. So election special will be basically a recap of the electoral college process, how it works step-by-step and what, how it could be interfered with what to expect at each of those steps. But, uh, you know, on the ground, election day, polling station, what to watch for. I don't believe we have a very high risk of a federal election going completely off the rails. But ultimately, if one state or two state or a handful of states ballots, their electoral votes are have to be discounted because they did not hold.

Legal elections was what should have happened with Pennsylvania in 2020. You know, I think I think we'll survive it. What happens simultaneous in the Bali crisis, economically, geopolitically, naturally, simultaneous to that, that's how things get destabilized to a point where your prepping plans need to, you know, have contingencies for those kinds of events.

And we're going to talk about it all fall. That's exactly what we're going to do. I'm looking at polymarket.com. I mentioned this. A lot of people know what this is, but I mentioned it last show. Polymarket.com slash elections. You can place your bets if you'd like,

but it's more more just an aggregate of market data trump's at a 53.3 chance to win harris at 46.1 to win about a month ago harris was slightly higher than trump so pretty much when did those change uh About a week ago. They were 50-50 a week ago, and since then it's really separated. In fact, I personally believe a lot of that momentum came from that Vance, J.D. Vance VP performance and Waltz's poor performance. That's when the momentum shifted on Polymarket, and I felt like that seems to hold, but still super early. Got a long way to go until election.

Even if it's less than a month away, it's going to feel like a long time, I think. So, Ben, you're citing the poll that's just the outcome of the election. Right. And so there's sort of a paradox here that we should probably try to resolve. It's easy on many of the topics we talk about on Patriot Power Hour to ascribe one of the root causes of any particular problem to ignorance in the public. particular problem to ignorance in the public. Just an increasing ignorance, just a lack of historical understanding, just lowering education standards, just people and lots of people that are here from a born in a different country that just don't understand our national historical context, right?

So how can we do that on one hand? Let's say, for example, we're guilty of that at times. At the same time, trust the wisdom of the crowd to be picking a winner in the gambling market when some percentage of that number of betters don't understand what the electoral college is. Right. And maybe it's just the echo chamber where they're like, oh, well, we think Trump's going to win, so now we're going to bet on it.

Oh, well, I heard people are betting on it, so I should bet on it too. And then everyone's just kind of following along. All good. All good points um to counter that and I don't can't go too deep with this counter but there's been a lot of studies out there that show that crowd source information is surprisingly accurate and you know more accurate than you might think it was. You might think, oh, the average person's pretty stupid, so if we ask 50,000 people what to do, ask them a question what to do, it's going to be pretty bad results. But I've seen studies.

I've seen studies. That's probably the most, that's what everyone's saying these days, and no one's backing it up. But I swear, I have, where the wisdom of the crowd isn't as bad as you might expect, especially gamblers in Vegas. They're pretty damn good at that stuff.

That's why I don't bet NFL or really anything. But I get where you're coming from. And in the end, this is such a close margin that it's 53 to 46. Does it really say much in and of itself, by itself? No. But I think it's interesting to watch how it fluctuates over time. Does Polymarket let you bet on state-by-state presidential outcomes? Yes, it does, actually.

And it gives percentages on all of them. So, for example, Indiana, 98% chance Trump will win. So, Harris would be a huge underdog. I can go find the actual numbers here. There you go. Pretty much like 48 to 1. So, you bet a dollar on Harris. If she won Indiana, you got 48 bucks.

That's not going to happen, though. But anyway, each individual state you can bet on. You can bet on the popular vote. Right now, Harris has a 72% chance to win the popular vote. So as you've already talked about, and we'll have to dive into the facts, but also the cultural significance of electoral college, etc. There's going to be a lot of people, if Harris loses, if she loses electoral but wins the popular vote,

tons of people are going to be bitching and complaining about that. So something to get ahead of already. One more real quick. Will Biden resign before the election? Only a 2% chance? I think that's worth the bet today, folks. This is Ben the Breaker of Banksters' bet of the week.

Will Biden resign before the election? 2%? 1 in 50? I think there's a 1 in 50 chance he might. I don't know. Take a stab, folks. Better than burning your money on NFL. Yeah, the state-by-state bets would make a lot more sense to be quoting because that's someone actually who understands that each state has an outcome

and the aggregate in the electoral college is what decides it. So what's the odds or what's the spread on Pennsylvania tonight? It is, and let's see if we can get over time. We can. We can get time element of it as well. Right now, Pennsylvania is a 55% for Trump, 45% Harris. And just about a week ago, it was 50-50. So when was Butler?

I guess since Butler has really diverged, you know, 55 to 45, was that the only reason? Hard to say, but Trump's gained a lot in Pennsylvania, and really that is correlated really heavily with his overall chance to win, it looks like. A couple other things, if I could, since I might as well jump in, it's almost done, but Senate, 74% chance the Senate majority is Republican. 55% chance that the House is Democrat. So they still, it's still in the toss up level. So they kind of have all these different permutations,

but they say there's a chance for a sweep for the Republicans. They say it's a one out of three chance that the Republicans win the presidency, Senate, and the House. 34% chance. Whereas they're only saying it's a 19% chance that the House wins the presidency, Senate, and House. So essentially, the Republicans should be locked in at the Senate. If they lost the Senate somehow, that would be disastrous. But Republicans have a better chance to have all three compared to the Democrats, though, is what this is showing. By a lot.

By almost twice as much of a chance. So you use the word chance, but in reality, that's percent of betters believing. Yes. That's the data set. The data set is still pretty low look it only has 26 million dollars bet on the balance of power question let's go see maybe the last one i'll dig uh just pennsylvania only how much money is being bet on pennsylvania right now 12.6 million. So that's not that much money, right? Compared to the stakes here,

like the future of civilization. So it's a pretty small sample size. Which does argue that even foreign actors or somebody wealthy in the country could throw away money to skew those.

But to what effect, right? Hey, spending a few million dollars to skew these polls by 3%, 5%, 7%, probably way more effective per dollar than some shitty YouTube ad for one of the candidates, right? So totally great point, man. Because they're not polls, right? They're just booking bets. So a pollster would make an argument that these are clearly not scientific polls.

I mean, these are clearly not scientific polls. You'd come back and say, in a perfect world, every gambler acting in their own self-interest is putting money behind this with, you know, true intent and belief that, you know, their bet is going to economically benefit them. Some share of 100% of any given bet in this arena, political, there's some share of it that's irrational. It's just being done out of fandom, hope, but not necessarily a rational bet. But compared to trying to catch people on their phones, or how do they even do polling now with most people without phones that will accept the calls right right right you know what what what can you trust what what can you trust can even trust the actual ballots that they count on in november that's what we're going to be talking about, guaranteed. But tonight, it's all about the hurricanes, aftermath of Helene,

the pending destruction of Milton. I know we're going to be talking about both of those storms a week from tonight. And God bless everybody in the past and in the recovery zones of those natural disasters. That's when it gets real. That's when being prepared really does matter. That's when it gets real. That's when being prepared really does matter. And everything else sometimes, you know, you have to put it in perspective.

When storms like that are coming, you know, the political world does take a step back. Certainly, certainly. Hey, that's, you know, whether it's a regional or a national or a worldwide calamity, that's why I'm a prepper, you know. Whatever happens to you is the most important thing that's happening that day. Pretty much, we're humans. That's how it works. So, all right.

Hey, great show. We'll be back next week. What do you say? Let's do it. Good show, Ben. Great show. Thank you. I am paying for this microphone. Thank you for listening to the Prepper Broadcasting Network where we promote self-reliance and independence.

Tune in tomorrow for another great show and visit us at
