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. SILENT PRAGUE ¶¶ You are now listening to the Patriot Power Hour. This live episode features the situational awareness you need to practice self-reliance and independence. Introducing your hosts, Ben, the Breaker of Banksters,

and Future Dan, the editor of FutureDanger.com. Patriot Power Hour, episode 282. It's October 16, 2024. Ben, the Breaker of Banksters, here with Future Dan. Pumping out a tweet for our show. Spreaker kicking off a link to our show tonight episode 282 hashtag patriot power hour hashtag future danger hashtag prepper broadcasting network gonna tag you on it gangster breaker i'm gonna respond right now i need to get uh

get in there mix it up i used to be mixing it up on social media before it was cool. Then everyone started doing it, and I was like, this isn't cool anymore. But that's not the reason I do it or anyone should. So get the message out. Also, not only try to educate people, but learn a lot yourself. So anyway, at Prepper Radio is Prepper Broadcast and Networks. So at Prepper Radio, if you do use X, a.k.a. Twitter, go ahead and follow. Actually, did you know PBN has 14,400 followers? That's a hell of a lot.

I'm going to go retweet it right now myself and looking nice. Looking nice, man. All right. So we're just under 500 hours to the 2024 election how are you seeing things shaping up well the continuing theme just a little bit we've uh i've been talking about that poly market in the betting markets they've gotten a lot they've gone another five percent towards trump so we're seeing to 60% chance of Trump in the odds pretty much in all the markets now. So it's definitely not going the right way.

But as you pointed out last episode, that doesn't mean that much. There could be a lot of reasons that's skewed. But it does seem, at least in the direction of polls, and in particular the betting markets, Trump is improving, at least. I just wonder how seriously the betting markets understand that it's 50 separate elections, and the Electoral College is what decides this, right? How many of those bettors don't understand that it's not a popular vote i think more than you might expect and let's might as well take a quick look at it i will say it is their money that matters like you think it's rational because they it's mostly people

betting their money and well okay here we go next week's going to be our election special so we're going to talk about the machinations of the election. Also, I've been starting on my homework to go use some AI to analyze about a dozen of our episodes from 2020 election and the time after the election up until and beyond January 6th. That's going to be next week, but we will talk about this to the opening. I'm looking at polymarket.com slash elections. And each individual state

you can bet on, and I think they probably take the aggregate of that or kind of the math of what everyone's betting per state and then roll that up into the national.

Not sure, but you can bet each individual state. And the states have been moving a lot wisconsin's really gone for trump in the last week so that's affected it i guess they got other questions though that are they got a lot of other funny questions yeah yeah what are these will there be another debate six percent chance

will kamala win all six swing states 13 chance uh will trump get more black votes in 2024 than before i suppose gotta read the fine print 77 chance and these percent chances are based off the betting odds so won't get into how they imply the odds but they also have uh senate so 80 chance the senate is republican when everything's settled 55 chance the house is democrat um 14 chance that democrats sweep the presidency senate and the house so they still say i mean if you think about it though 14 chance that they could sweep all three is pretty high still. So it's not, this isn't locked up by any means. But they think 41%, or at least this betting market,

41% implied odds, 41% chance that Republicans sweep the presidency, Senate, and House. Now that number went up from like 30% last week to darn near 40, you know, a little over 30% last week to 41% this week. That's grown a lot. What do you think this means for reality, though? We actually misquoted the amount of money that this market has last week.

It actually has like $1.8 billion spent, you know, bet on it, so it's not a small market. What does it mean for reality, though? Well, if they try to steal the election or there's some other shenanigans going on, that might not be priced in here. That's a big concern. We've seen odds swing all the time. Hell, if you're a sports bettor, you know that sometimes it's like your team has a 94% chance to win,

and they still blow it all the time, it seems like. There's still those chances. Honestly, hard to trust that things will be kosher, but even if there are, there's still a more than 40% chance Harris wins, and that's quite a lot. Still a more than 40% chance Harris wins, and that's quite a lot. 40% is too high in my book, but it's less than 47%, which it was last week or something like that. And it tracks it all the way back.

So again, polymarket.com slash elections. So Harris had a slight lead on Trump at one point. When was this? Like in about this time last month. So today's October 16th. So mid-September. Mid-September, Harris was 52, Trump was 47. It's all been downhill for Harris since. Honestly, they really switched places right around the Feist presidential debate.

Was that because Vance wiped the floor with walls? Might have had a little bit of an impact on it. It's also just, you know, I think more and more people are seeing that Harris campaign is just a total joke. But, again, this doesn't mean much. People still got to go out to vote and still got to look out for shenanigans at the polls and in some of the swing states especially, right? Yeah. I think those are felonies though. I wouldn't

characterize them as some sort of minimal mischief. No. Well, there's all levels of it but if you're talking about stuff and balance then yeah, that's the worst case. One of the worst case for sure i consider liberty killing fraud actually yeah well and so i think keep i think not having voter id is liberty killing fraud myself

a lot of states don't require that or there's all there's all types of shenanigans going on uh but yeah he you know i think it's uh worth life in prison if you are caught and it's proven under law that you manipulated this stuff especially if you were in like some managerial position or like you know it wasn't just like one ballot you affected hundreds of ballots definitely i'm not sure in your lifetime if if literacy tests existed on any ballots any longer in the united states but it it's within many listeners lifetimes clearly mind that there were literacy tests at one point that complete you know you couldn't just pull someone out of uh you know developmentally delayed or you know just just so infirm or not conscious to the world person and bring them to the polls.

I mean, they had to pass a literacy test. They had to be, you know, intelligent and recognizable and speak English. I mean, that's not too far ago in the past. I think that seems pretty reasonable too. Always was, I'm pretty sure'm pretty sure it's kind of crazy so how far the overton window is is shifted um what about in your local environment forget online polls social media news manipulation forget all all those sources of information bring it down to the street level day-to-day interaction during work shopping social life getting places going places seeing things

seeing people overhearing people you know observing behaviors what what is your environment this october 2024 tell you about this election i guess the first thing that pops in my mind is in a more rural setting where i live there's way more trump than you know trump signs or just overall support than in suburban and urban blue areas. But that was true four years ago. But I wasn't living in this area, so I assume that difference was stark. So you're not able to baseline it

because previously you're in predominantly... So it's pretty stark now, but I don't know if it got even more stark or less than before. I don't know that it got even crazy you know even more stark or less than before i don't know that so i've been have not changed locations my daily routine and places i go things i see have been you know i have a baseline 2020 to now i can tell you there's way less harris signs oh yeah on yards okay then there had been biden signs uh and i think trump is about the same not more not less okay and so i don't know if what i'm about to share with you is directly related sort of tangential to this conversation it's

something else i observed in my local environment last night at a grocery store local grocery store shopping so after covid the predominance of self-checkout rose to the forefront right and you go to larger grocery stores or other department stores there'd be no one to check you out farmers you know drug stores what they basically you you'd do it yourself there was there's no one no no cashier right i went to a major i'm not going to name it but you know for opsec purposes but you know everybody pretty much is gonna have gone to the store I'm talking about last night. Guess how many cashiers they had going.

Large grocery store. About as large as they get. About as large as grocery stores get. It was today's Wednesday, October 16th. So it was a Tuesday night. Yeah. Like three? Eight.

Eight? Guess how many lanes they had for self-checkout open compared to the total available at the store. Really? Not all of them? Guess how many. Well, I don't know how many total they had, but I would say at least half of them open four registers in one lane accepting 15 items or less with a store manager standing right in the middle of the four watching what everybody was doing with another 16 roped off shut down unavailable of self-checkout little stations meanwhile eight cashiers using using the lanes that have that

were there before covid no way but even before covid they didn't staff eight human beings ringing up the the groceries oh that seems like shit from the 90s or no it looked like when i grew up yeah i remember this like unless i don't know just like 1993 94 be like oh well even there even the early 2000s it was still okay it was like a lifetime ago but i remember that i i'm thinking that this major franchise because everyone's getting stolen from i think they have realized done the analysis it's it's it's more profitable to have people checking out right then the honor system one time things are tight out there you know i honestly overpay for toilet paper one time on those self checkouts but i've never stolen anything that i know of but i could have totally made a mistake for all i know but i think

the actual store got over on me but i'm honest and i'm not trying to pilfer stuff at the supermarket i couldn't believe that they even did this i would figure like even if only what i think a supermarket's margin is like gosh i thought i heard it is like two or three percent and they would definitely have two or three percent freaking leakage as they call it or stolen goods. So all their profit would be stolen, I would expect, on the honor system. So I can't believe they even did it for as long as it's gone on, I guess. Yeah, eight cashiers in four lanes, front and back.

And pretty much you were not going through that store checking out food on your own without tight supervision. And if you had any amount of food, more 15 items somebody else was doing it did it seem like oh so it wasn't even an option for there's a cashier no so if you had under 15 items you couldn't even do it all those other lanes were roped off shut down inoperable couldn't go there so you couldn't even wait in line no you had to wait in line to go through a cashier like the old days and then i'm heading out the front and and and and someone's checking the receipt and i and i ask him what's going on well you got all these cashiers and he mumbled something about not being in the meeting that the decision was made but he he expressed

surprise it's like he he basically revealed this is new. They're doing this now. They have not had eight cashiers in the evening, right? It was near 8 p.m. checking people out. So obviously theft as a result of inflation. Right. And just the decay of values and the lack of enforcement, right? And just the decay of values and the lack of enforcement, right?

These stores probably have all the security cameras and footage of these minor thefts over time. And they made a decision over time to just overlook it. Now, that's coming where I live. There's going to be other listeners in California and other places where the shoplifting went, you know, to national embarrassment levels, this is nothing new. Locked up by the deodorant or something. Yeah. Or parts of the country I see on social media that have everything locked up in glass cases, socks locked up so they can't be, you know, stolen. Not electronics, right? Yeah. So, I mean, when that kind of environment shifts where I live,

that's where I think, you know, we can talk about the headlines on Future Danger, and we will on this show, national level, macro level kind of trends. But I'm all about paying attention locally, too. Super interesting insight i'm gonna have to pay attention kind of where i live see if i notice that um especially i thought well i won't say the name of the store i go to i think it's different than the one you go to uh oh i go to many different ones yeah so i'm always rotating around I like to, when COVID came down, I like to get tight, you know, pay attention to which stores had what, who was running out of stuff, shortages.

All right, we'll be back with the news dashboard here in a second, folks. Stick with us. Thunder and rays in war and I We have come into the night Thunder and rays in war and I We will fight for our kings For Ragnarok Finger up for Ragnarok Finger up for Ragnarok Patriot Power Hour Interception February 25th, 2020, episode 85.

Why can low interest rates be bad? In 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 rate's 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.

That is the heat map dashboard off of future danger tonight.

Bankster Breaker, your reaction. The economics, not much going on there except for gold coming right back to all time high. Just under 2700 right now. And Bitcoin's up a little bit but like

you said there's not massive amount of bankruptcies but there's not tons of great news that the harris campaign is touting either it's kind of just uh i guess everyone's just holding tight waiting till the election but the federal reserve actually i think meets the wednesday after the election like it's early early November for the next Fed meeting, but that's not even taking place before the election. So it seems mostly economic news

for better or worse is holding tight until the election at this point. Beans are one thing, bullets are another. Let's jump into this issue of DOD Directive 5240.01. That article is lengthy, and I will recommend readers go to it. defense is committed to contributing to domestic law enforcement in in you know during times of of crisis and the author of this article is is clearly raising issues with you know the the

violation of posse comitas the post-civil war law that prevents military forces from being used to you know enforce the law inside the united states without without the president suspending posse comitas the critique of the article that i would have is it doesn't really address the fact that posse comitas can be suspended by the president in times of emergency which is i think why dod has a policy for that eventuality the thing this time is it does mention lethal force against american citizens something that no one previously in the department of defense thought was you know a uh a topic to be announcing in a public, unclassified document, at least. And that did happen at the end of last month.

Well, I guess it's something that maybe 10 years ago I would have been one of those raving conspiracy theorists saying FEMA's getting the FEMA camps ready to exterminate you and they're buying up all the ammo, and they're going to use lethal force and suspend posse comitatus, et cetera. Sounded crazy. More and more of it's coming true, even if it's not fully fledged out, even if there's not taking away from FEMA camps yet.

You know, they did have the essentially coerced vaccines between now and then, so that was a big part of it. But, I don't know, I expect, I already think we live in a police state, and just maybe two degrees away from brown shirts taking people away at night. So this is just a little more proof of it. Ron Paul talked about it, of course. He's been all over this type of overreach for quite a while. And, you know, I don't know.

I'm too jaded to really comment more on it. I'm like, yeah, I already knew this was going to happen. It's happening. Some people are freaking out. I'm like, what? You didn't see this comment 10 years ago? But what do you think? You think this is actually a big deal?

Or it's just like a couple actually added to a policy that doesn't really mean anything or something in between i i think it's one of those things that is now entirely politicized in the department of defense and there are you know so much research on niche you know groups consuming news and and and and what the democrats would call fringe conspiracists are you know in knowing that you can activate them and anger them and produce social media content why not change some simple dod guidance that's existed you know in a you know somewhat innocuous form for decades in a way that gets ron paul and alex jones and others to talk about it in you know a hyper excited way because you want to excite and agitate and and

bring about you know speculation that is going to be deemed by your constituency as crazy. Well, I didn't listen to Alex today, but... I'm not sure he talked about this today either, but... Well, I listened to about three minutes of his intro. I didn't get a chance to actually listen to it. I don't listen every day. Maybe once or twice a week. But he did say, confirmed they're planning Civil War conditions

after the election. So I'm pretty sure he was talking about this. He's talking about you know trump winning but they the i don't know who they are but i probably like the david axelrods and all the friends over there and the pedestas and all them trying to come up with a way to not certify the election so even if trump wins he's a felon or they come up with a way to not certify the election. So even if Trump wins, he's a felon, or they can come up with all these excuses that we're going to talk about next week, why maybe they do or do

not hold any water. Right? So we can talk maybe about the immunity as well, and Supreme Court. But anyway, they're pretty much saying out of the Alex Jones of the world, at least. And I didn't listen to today's episode, but I know this is where he's going he's been previewing

it and a lot of people follow this track that either A they're going to steal the election from Trump but B maybe Trump will win by so much they can't steal the election in terms of fraud and the actual votes so they will come up with some other

reason to not allow him to be inaugurated in January. And that's the, you know, just because we get through the election, if election night, it's like, wow, Trump actually won, looks like he's going to win the electoral college, they're saying no, there's still, you know, 60 or 70 days or whatever until January 2025 where they're going to try some stuff to, till January 2025 where they're going to try some stuff to, they are going to try some stuff to stop Trump from actually getting in.

That's what they're talking about, and they say that will cause so many people to freak out and be pissed that they're going to need to clamp down on all the right-wing extremists is essentially where they're going with it. The challenge I have with that is who is the they and how is what you're talking about. Yeah. Well, I would say Alex would have some of his ideas. We're not the Alex Jones show here, but I guess.

So do you think this is more of a – I'm open to the idea. I just need more fact and more mechanically at the tactical level and i think we're gonna you know take it upon ourselves to talk about how how the you know this can happen and we're not breaking a lot of new ground here what dinesh desouza did with you know 2000 mules obviously shed light on on one of the techniques to stuff the ballot boxes but uh and know, we're not going to necessarily talk about every permutation of fraud because the most dangerous ones are the ones we haven't seen coming yet, right? There'll be new stuff this year.

That's a great way to put it. It's not going to work like in 2020 with the lockdowns and the mail-ins at that degree. But I always have that problem with the big mysterious they argument you're going to have to be more accurate this is kind of the opposite of Q this would be like the anti-Q it would be the they on the Democrat deep states

that somehow would be able to prevent Trump from now they've I don't have the quotes queued up, but I have heard some of these, you know, DNC type folks, talk about how they would try,

to bring Trump down, even if he wins the election, that he's unfit, but the technical and legal jargon, I don't have that ready to go. Yeah, I'm not sure there's any fitness argument, that is constitutionally

sound in the least disqualified from conviction well uh he got the civil conviction in new york uh criminal conviction is also in new york but it's uh under appeal so yeah and it wasn't for insurrection. That's a totally different thing. Right. So on a state-by-state basis, I would have thought by now they would have tried to get him removed from certain state ballots based upon state law to this regard, and it hasn't happened. Well, it was attempted. Right. Supreme Court shut it down. So why wouldn't they?

Yeah, I think. Right. All these things keep bailing, so why wouldn't they? Yeah, I think. I'm not afraid of mysterious they's that don't have a how to do this. Now, there may be they's out there, and they may have a how, and we haven't seen what's coming yet, but you've got to show me. You've got to show me something. That makes sense.

You got to show me something. That makes sense. They seem pretty desperate, but it's not over yet. I guess we'll be doing our show the Wednesday after. That will be the first day the Fed meets, for what it's worth. But today is the 16th of October, so the 23rd next week we'll be doing our election show. The 30th, we're still going to be live on air, I believe, but we'll be talking, of course, about the election. But it won't be our election special, so to speak. We wanted to do that a couple weeks before.

And then it'll be the 6th, so that's the day after. So we'll be covering it in great detail anything else you wanted to talk about the race specifically or really anything there's more shoes to drop there's more pre-planned

October surprises that are going to be rolled out how many of them are trivial and overlooked whether any actually have a meaning i don't know the the threat of the israelis striking iran and and absolutely demolishing that country's petroleum export capability you know that that that lingers over in the air over all of this it could almost happen any any night there were there's always reports of this. It could almost happen any night. There's always reports of this and reports of that.

There are reports of it was going to happen last night. It did not. A lot of analysts out there say that Israel's going to have that decapitation strike they want to hit beforehand. But I guess it's been, what, a couple weeks and they have not really done that. Decapitation strike against the Iranian regime? Well, yeah, exactly. Yeah, and I've said previously, they might go ahead and do that and there might be nothing that Iran can do in response.

I guess I kind of thought it would have happened by now, especially they had such a roll going with taking out the leaders of different terrorist organizations and then the beepers and then Iran kind of hit them back so they had kind of that momentum where they could be like, all right, well, this is our counterattack to your counterattack. But it's been quiet the last week or two relatively. They're still actually, both sides are still hitting each other.

And there's deaths every day. But it's not like thousands of rockets on either side are going off at this point. This goes head into heels right into Israeli supply of interceptor missiles under strain amid daily barrages. So maybe it's kind of an attritional warfare in that regard um it looks like this president is uh you know limiting the supply and the protection in order to de-escalate what israel's been doing so there's some of that going on netanyahu versus versus Biden in the background. Yeah, so October 1st was the Iranian ballistic missile attack,

so just over two weeks ago. And yes, again, Israel is launching bombing strikes and ground attacks and whatnot, but they haven't tried to take out the Ayatollah that we know of. In Lebanon and in Syria sometimes. Not directly in Iran any time recently. Yes. A lot of people were saying that would happen potentially between now and the start of October until now.

Do you think there's a chance it'll happen between now and the election? Do you think that's one of those potential October surprises? And do you think that's one of those potential October surprises? Or do you think this has kind of hit its peak? If it hasn't happened by now, maybe it won't happen. Well, how many people could it surprise? It could surprise big swaths of the U.S. electorate

that's unaware of what's going on in the Middle East. But, I mean, if you're voting for president, you're probably somewhat aware of what's happened in the Middle East in the last two years. And Iran's been kind of the face of, at least one of the faces of the axes of evil for two decades. So people know Iran is bad. A lot of people don't like Israel these days, though, but still.

I think a lot of voters are like, oh, Israel's our ally, so we like Israel more than Iran. Now, yeah. I think most voters would prefer not to have the Middle East on absolute fire. Right? I would hope so. No matter what is going on there not having it being a bloodbath is is probably important for everybody that'd be helpful

but if it turns into a bloodbath between now and the election what result would that you know would that affect the election at all in your opinion or just it's you know horrible and it's gonna cause problems all around the world but it's's not really going to matter in the election. All I know is I haven't seen the Democrats lose an election without scapegoating someone. In their own, you know, external to them usually lately. Used to be they blamed Dukakis or blamed Kerry, right? But now when they lose, there's going to have to be somebody to blame, right? There's only so much screaming about Trump

that they could do after they lose to him, if they lose to him. So somebody's going to get blamed, and the current leader of Israel might be on that list if that happens. So China encircling Taiwan with a military exercise. They do that every now and again.

They do. Do you have any reason to think that'll blow up between now and the election? I don't. I don't think the Chinese have the military capability to take that island, and I'm pretty sure they know it, and that they do these major shows of force because they they might have a group think going on in in beijing and that regime that um that that how could taiwan possibly stay independent from the mainland forever and that it

naturally has to be absorbed by people's republic of China and that these military shows of force are a way of persuading the population of Taiwan over time that they'll inevitably be absorbed into the communist state. I'm not sure that there's going to be any kind of... It wouldn't be in China's interest to launch that war right before our election. It would definitely hand the election to Trump, don't you think? I would expect as much. I don't think they're going to launch that right now. Anyway, we'd see a lot more buildup.

A lot more buildup. They can't just try to take an island without anybody noticing these days. and just try to take an island without anybody noticing these days. The trouble for Indo-Pacific Command and our allies, Japan, Australia, Philippines, even the cooperation with Vietnam and all the military staffs of all these countries is every time the People's Liberation Army puts that many war planes and warships out out around taiwan every single time you gotta take it seriously you have to be you have to be ready right and i'll bring that back to um the middle east iran bombarded israel proper on october 1st 16 days later the israeli defense force is is probably letting the iranians stay on the highest possible guard day after day after day like how long could you keep

your air defense guards up at at that level and then right you know maybe wait for an earthquake and and hit them covertly during that is is types of things in Tel Aviv that they probably plan for. All right. Readiness fatigue or something like that. Can't stay on watch at all times. That applies to the average prepper as well, really. Yeah, and we also have drones being flown around military bases. Yeah, tell me about this.

What is this? Yeah, so there's one article that is now published and mainstream and is out there that Langley Air Force Base detected some kind of drones in their airspace. And Langley has the F-22 Rapt raptor probably the most advanced war plane ever built lots of them so that's it's clearly an indicator to me of of foreign black ops i was watching fox news last night who reported on this incident and had their own report which i have been unable to find a direct headline link to actually i think i have had a link to this in the past they were just summoning up something that's happened recently a chinese student um in the norfolk virginia area where there's

giant presence of you know u.s navy concentration and tidewater region uh was uh arrested trying to leave the country after being caught pulling a drone out of a tree nearby uh other suspicious drone flights so it's pretty clear that we have advanced force operations at a long-term strategic continual basis, always in effect inside our own country. And that's the type of thing during the days of the Soviet Union and the Cold War that the FBI hunted down and prevented. Doesn't seem like they're doing that now. Yeah, like one drone coming over and then running away five

seconds later is totally bad enough and needs to be fully investigated but for at least on this article i don't know this doesn't even seem real but it must be 17 days how could these drones continue to fly over over a 17 day period like and they just let this happen? Oh, I'll answer that. Bring it back to DOD Directive 5240. And what can local military commanders do in emergency situations when their military installations are under threat? Oh, yeah. That's the core of that directive is absence

guidance from any chain of command if you are a commander of an installation and you know it's under attack you know drone drone surveillance is one thing but in a real emergency right well drone bombs like ukraine looking what what can a air force commander do at langley air force base protect his air force base during a you know you know the complete fog of war some massive internal unrest right it's pretty clear to me the chinese and other governments have all kinds of you know proverbial sleep i don't know about sleeper cells that's more of a terrorist concept but just special operators and intelligence gathering that are here they can report home what they know about our posture and the opportunity for sabotage is is there i don't think our dod in in the worst case scenario would sit back and and do nothing but we're not in the worst case scenario and that is why the Langley Air Force Base commander

probably is relatively powerless to do anything. He has to turn it over to local police to do something about it. Can't be shooting out of the sky with Stinger missiles, I guess. Can't accelerate it that much. They could if the drones were over the actual installation. They certainly could do that. So it wasn't exactly over. It's just...

I'm pretty sure they're intelligently, cleverly near the airspace. Right. With sensors that can look in without being in the airspace. Right. It makes more sense. If whatever part of this report was declassified, I'd be guessing that's the kind of things that, you know, obviously our enemies are doing in our country

and nearly in broad daylight. And that totally makes sense why the base commanders should have that sort of authority. What I'm more worried about is, well, every road within a 50-mile radius is important to our base's security. Therefore, we have to have checkpoints all throughout. That's possible. That would be, you know, during a major World War scenario,

that would happen. That would be obvious. Suspend posse comitatus and you have martial law. It's possible. Of course, Lincoln did it. Now, what happens if two or three Oklahoma City-level bombings occur

on November 9th, and they say it was some terrorist cell, and they suspect people like you and I are in it. Who's they? FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security, DOJ, and the tips that they're receiving. I'll be listening to what the military says. None of the rest of them.

Do you expect that there would be some sort of martial law regionally or in those cities if there were multiple bombings like that? Pretty much September 11th or worse. Bombings of what? Federal buildings. Federal facilities attacked? Oh, yeah. Civilian, not military.

Yeah, but federal civilian facilities attacked? Yeah. Yeah, no, they'd fortify them. They'd reinforce them. No, would they, like, roll out the National Guard and try to- They would. Like, nationwide, though. Yeah, they'd fortify them. They'd reinforce them. Would they roll out the National Guard? They would. Nationwide, though. Yeah, they would.

And if it is advanced force operations by an enemy actor state with deep undercover sabotage forces, shouldn't they do that? What if it's a false flag? Yeah, exactly. That's the problem. Yeah. That's what I'm... Yeah.

It is definitely like I want them to be able to do this if it's truly false flag? Yeah, exactly. That's the problem. Yeah. That's what I'm. Yeah, it is definitely like, I want them to be able to do this if it's truly China invading us. But I'm as worried of domestic enemies as foreign. So we'll be covering it best we can here, of course. But anything else you want to touch on that? I, yeah,

it makes a lot more sense that if the drones were not like literally over the f-22 hangars but could be peer over them or you know we're well for all we know there's been many that have been caught doing that and disabled and brought down and that that would be all classified exactly that's another thing i wanted i've always thinking in the background i was like yeah like they didn't tell us about the ones they caught or the people they caught or the spies. What do you think of the fact that this even comes out? Do you think it's just so many people already knew about it they had to release this? It's not good news for this presidency.

This is from Tim Kaine, Senate Armed Services Committee member from Virginia. I'm surprised that's coming out. I'm surprised that the FBI is revising upwardly their crime statistics. Some of this stuff, you've got to have an explanation for. If you're going to be hyper-conspiratorial and say that it's parts of the

deep state that want to see Trump return to power so they can bring about the mysterious they, somebody, somehow they can bring about you know the the mysterious they somebody somehow could bring about uh you know an entire collapse of the system under trump that there's a certain logic to that but if you think that you know the deep state has been firmly under the control of the democrats since the time bill clinton left office that office, why would that news be getting leaked now? Maybe it's a product of freedom of information requests,

court filing, judicial system, illegal process, public laws, and people just fighting to get that information out. I don't know the background of why the FBI revised today. I'm just speculating, but odd that that news is out. We had mob looting freight train of flat-screen TVs in lawless Chicago. Obama's beautiful Chicago. I'm sure you saw this. Obviously, theft is going up.

Violent crime, which is separate than theft is going up as well what are you seeing from from this and you know is this just uh something that happens every day are you starting to see a trend of kind of mass thefts whether it's at a uh luxury store or apparently now just just on the railroad, they're breaking in. This isn't the first time. We've seen the rail yards looted in California and smash and grab mob riots, flash mob riots. I mean, pretty much it happens in places that are dangerous to live. Those are cities governed by Democrats.

And if you're there and listening to this broadcast, I would love to sit down and understand your preparedness plan to survive when that goes, you know, even one order of magnitude worse. Oh, yeah. And honestly, it'll go an order of magnitude or two order of magnitudes higher and way more people will be doing it instead of it just being one percent of people doing it it's gonna be like 10 or 20 and they're gonna be way more desperate and brazen than they already are so it's multi you know that's exponential a hop of exponential. Could get that way. Could. In certain areas, very quick, depending on how Mad Max you want to get it. I usually presume some of the worst case scenarios for what you've got to try to prep towards. But not living in these areas is a start.

Some people have to live in congested areas and high crime areas. It is what it is. But hopefully you've got a bug out plan at least if the power goes out or things occur you probably don't want to be there at least a couple days into that so this deal about a man arrested outside trump rally the would-be third potential assassin of trump last news i saw is he he was absolutely denying that that was absolutely denying any of the allegations. Apparently California couldn't hold him, released him. So got to be honest, didn't follow where that news story has gone.

But Trump wasn't assassinated. It wasn't even a close shot. So we did watch him return to Butler, Pennsylvania, uh we did watch him return to butler pennsylvania behind a turret of see-through bulletproof you know podium glass so uh i'm not sure whether that's still a realistic scenario for trump to get shot at a rally at this point but you know i, I think you, you've, you've said that, you know, you'd be surprised if he made it alive to the election day. How,

how, what are your thoughts on three weeks left? Should we, we concerned he's going to be assassinated. They, they've been trying is the day I'm going to, I'm going to do a whole show on they, and the banksters are the day that I talk.

Somebody, you can use somebody somebody's been trying to put down to the to trump and i think multiple uh people or organizations not just like one one group trying to do it again what are we not what are we never seen what types of attempts have they foiled that no one knows about right now. That's one question. They don't have much time though. So you think they would try harder as time goes on or,

or just give up on the idea. So I guess right now, hopefully they've given up on the idea or they're going to have to double down with something besides a shooting and whether that's like a truck bombing or some type of drone thing, or I think you're talking about or any conspirators within the government who would let it happen on purpose this is a much larger they yes yeah not not a random lone wolf they there's certainly hundreds of people crazy enough to go ahead on their own kill any president of any party at any

time that's what the secret service is there for. We know we have to, you know, in modern society, you're going to have the threats of assassins. So, I believe in the back channels, maybe it was even the NBC guy himself. I forgot who it was exactly, but they put a meme

or, you know, it was like, Plan A was Biden, Plan B was, you know, this is how to beat Trump. It was Biden, then it was try to assassinate him, then it was bring in Kamala, then it was have that second assassination attempt, then it's

steal the vote, then it's like World War III. If all else fails, maybe World War III. Anyway, point is, they continue to fail, and they're either going to have to just let Trump win, or they're really running out of time, so the next few weeks is when they have to assassinate him, I think. Or, you know, if he becomes actually elected,

I don't think anyone's going to believe that it was just a random person anymore. And if he actually became elected and certified, then I guess we'd go to Vanceance and hopefully people would rally behind him because if everyone's just only relying on trump even in the best case scenario in four or five years or whatever the the revolution's gonna run out of steam like you know mag is not gonna have trump forever so people gotta start playing from that, number one. But also, got to get across the finish line, and he ain't there quite yet. I think Vance has presented himself pretty well this campaign.

I like him a lot. Vice presidential debate. Hadn't stepped on it. He did a good job. Hasn't embarrassed anybody. Hadn't had a bad moment that had people who otherwise would support him second-guess him. Sure. that that that had people who otherwise would support him second guess him sure so you know out of the four candidates the the mr magoo with the shotgun last weekend kamala harrison and even trump who you know steps on it time to time from time you get he misstates something and gives his

opponents an ability to take his plain spoken words and blow them out of context it does it i think he does it on purpose right he wants it right it's part of the you know part of the you know angst that propels him to the presidency is tweaking his opponents oh yeah vance has been sort of a flashback to an era where political candidates were much more even keeled. I think that's a good thing. I'm not almost never saying nice things about politicians, but in the vice presidential debate

especially, but I've heard them speak on Twitter as well. Vance is growing on me. Still worried about some of his past with some of the banksters and whatnot. But, hey, we're not trying to vote in someone who's 110% pristine. I don't like the phrase lesser of two evils.

But, you know, Trump and Vance, not bad. Kamala, freaking pure evil. And her cabal, she's just a front lady for it. So, you know, I don't need, if Trump and Vance can be a B in my book, that is enough to vote for them for sure. And that's pretty high. I've never given a politician a B in my book, except maybe Ron Paul. I don't really think about it that way anymore at all. I know.

Well, now we're at war, essentially, so you can't. I think about who do you vote against. You vote for the candidate most likely to put the people that must stay out of power out of power. Well, usually the stakes aren't this intense, but they are now. Four years from now, it'll be as intense or worse. Four years after that, how's it going to be less intense or worse? You've seen the trajectory of the federal debt. You know the financial basis of the country is rotting from within.

How is not every midterm and presidential federal election not going to be like this and like this and like this until something breaks? Because one thing's for sure, this election, neither party is going to have the amount of votes in the Senate to bring cloture. You have 60 votes to bring a bill forward for a vote. i have 60 votes to bring a bill forward for a vote but neither one's going to get that unless they want to break and wipe out those rules of the senate which the last people talked about the nuclear option but no one's dared do it yet you know we're not gonna we're not gonna have uh even if even if that 41 poly market prediction on the republicans sweeping the house the senate and the presidency if that happened the the margins are going to be so slim that Trump and Vance are going to be wheeling and dealing to get whatever they can get through

because there's going to be a great big middle portion of the Republican Party that will have made it to power and faced election again in two years, the members of the Congress. So this is by design. We have limited government and balance of power on purpose every four years we get people you know who don't really pay attention carefully to politics for the rest of the time come in and weigh in on you know what they hope and expect to happen with a presidential election you know he that person presides right they're not an executive in any you know medieval

dictatorial way and for democrats to say that trump's going to come in and be that way i mean it's obviously there's constitutional limits he's going to get crushed by lawsuits by them like as soon as he's in power if he makes it it there. Sure. No, it's not easy at all. Well, none of the candidates are really talking about stopping any spending. I don't know. Have you heard Trump or Vance talk about balancing the budget? Trump's attitude is that if he raises tariffs, he can bring in the revenues to put the trajectory of that deficit, change that trajectory, right? And somehow he's made it to this point

and and the democrats have been unable to you know it's just that they don't even think this way so they can't make the argument but the spending that came out for the stimulus during covid under trump is clearly the result of the, you know, that inflation was going to result from that. Sure. Oh yeah. And Trump's completely blamed Harrison and Biden for the inflation because it

showed up right under him. And he's, he's completely, you know, the whole topic of whether the COVID vaccines were unhealthy to take and, and, and how Trump took credit for, you know,

operation warp speed, getting the experimental vaccines out. All of his supporters who absolutely hate the fact that that experimental vaccine was put out and the effects of it, they're all silent right now, you know, lesser of two evils, right?

You can talk about that, but it's not going to help Trump. So don't talk about it yeah it's hard for me to do that but i guess i could see where you're coming from um anything else you got for the night what else you learning from poly market i just was clicking around 80 chance the Fed cuts rate by a quarter of a point. 11% they keep it steady. But I don't know. There's just all types of...

You can bet on anything in this world. Trump prison time in New York case before the election. Obviously, 98% chance no prison time. You can make some money off this. Uh, if you wanted to, yeah. 3% chance.

Biden resigns before the election. They don't let you bet on people passing away or dying. Do they? Uh, probably maybe on this website, but like Trump is Trump assassinated? Is that what you're looking for? Or Biden dies?

Biden resigns. I know. But. I think the chances of him actually passing away might be higher than him. I don't think anything would cause them to resign. Right. I was actually thinking sort of the same thing thing like might not even make it to the election not because he resigned

but other purposes or other reasons um anyway we're running low on time any other articles we missed here I just I'd back off and have you know just the gestalt we got two indicators gold soaring

foreign black ops clearly suspected those are grade one black on red happening now and then most of the security column is grade one news topical news no no no no real movement beyond the normal towards any crisis there and in that column but uh the absence of news in the liberty column and the economic column um i i chalked that up to you know during the election every single thing is politicized any single news coming out or released is going to be seized upon by the campaign so nothing's coming out that doesn't mean nothing bad is happening in the background secretly but

there just isn't any news I don't know if that'll last much longer I mean we'll be back next week and we'll be back the week after that and the week after that before you know it it'll be the post election special but we also of course reserve the right to jump on

if anything crazy happens. We could maybe show up on a random Saturday, for all you know. So stay tuned and listen to PBN as a whole.
