You are now listening to the Patriot Power Hour, the newest show of the Prepper Broadcasting Network. 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 future of attendance. here with future Dan. What's going on future Dan?

Future Dan, you may be muted still. Yeah, I'm here Ben and thank you to our audience for tuning in again. We're back from a break. Had a lot of intense news in June. Some of it remains intense and and other indicators have cooled right off. It's been quite the whirlwind the last four to six weeks. and and other indicators have gone away but have quieted down the protests. Those have not gone away but have quieted down some. Meanwhile, we do have a lot of I'm not going to say

brand new news but a lot of topics, headlines, indicators that we haven't talked about at least for several weeks that have started to pop back up. So, I would say that just at first glance, this is kind of an average news blitz in terms of frequency, severity. So we'll get to that in the next 10 or 15 minutes. But you know, not going to bury the lead. Epstein, just in the last couple

days. Well, Justice Department has said there really is not a client list. Trump Trump has been trying to move the question of is with me off on high ranking people, government, academia, business, and otherwise, that should be on that list and they have that sort of evidence. But I remember you saying, hey, first off, Trump's not on the list because they would have used that against him 10, 12 years ago, whatever. But number two, he may be leveraging that in other ways. What's your take on that with essentially the case is closed According to the Trump administration as of a couple days ago either bondi and and

Patel and Trump have the goods on the quote Western Intelligence Agency that backed Epstein or multiple agencies actually, British, Israel, possibly our own CIA involved, right? He's got the goods and it is leverage or the Biden administration destroyed whatever was left of the evidence and there's none to be had or the evidence has been destroyed but those other western intelligence agencies can't be entirely sure of that therefore there's still leverage seems like one of those three is going on to me

l2 survive what's happening l2 on? L to survive. What's years probably though. I need to boost mine. But what's going on L2 Survive? Appreciate that. I'm always like, we don't have a producer. It's just featured Dan and I. So we're always like, fingers crossed, is the audio on point or not? So I don't know. I could talk about Epstein for hours, but we've already taught about him so much whether it was in 2019 when he hanged himself and even before then I was doing podcast back. I think my first was in

2013 and I'm not saying in 2013. I was talking about Epstein but certainly even a few years before the question the integrity of the entire institutions of all branches of government at this point, US and international. Yeah, it is bad. We lose a lot of leverage too. But yeah, I think those, it should come out though. So it's it. I don't know. Again, talk about it forever. I'm not going to talk too much more about it. But anything else you wanted to say or where do you expect this to go? more about it, but anything else you wanted to say or where do you expect this to go?

I think I've, I remember Trump in previous campaigns. He clearly. Emphasize it in his first run for president and, and, and, and his attempt at reelection in 2020 that he wants to be the president that brings. Keys to the middle East, you know? If he can, I suppose if he had to look at it like a trade on a spreadsheet, what can I say? I'm a finance guy. Probably not the best way to look at it, but maybe it is. If you get, well, we're not really seeing peace in Ukraine but if we got

peace in Ukraine, peace in the Middle East, trade deals, a closed border, and fixing a lot of other problems here at home, all that went in the positive section of the spreadsheet and the only negative was well, a lot of banksters and government

big wigs that are a bunch of pervs and horrible people got away with it. Is that an even trade or you know, it's it's a sacrifice willing to be done. I don't know. There's some sort of balance equilibrium there where you have to say it's

worth it. Like if it was that or literally World War three, everybody's dead. Of course, the Epstein list. Let's bury that. Let's stop World War three if you had to look at that extreme but I don't I don't know what the actual equations are

and stuff but my point is I uh it's definitely lowering my overall evaluation of the administration because they made it sound like they were going to bust some people. It was on the desk ready to be reviewed and now they're like nope, Epstein didn't kill himself. Just like come on man. Or that could change tomorrow, right? If the evidence is there and this administration is now in possession of it, it's definitely a tool to wield. And I've talked to you a long time about the potential of 2020 being very dangerous because if financial powers and foreign actors, state and non-state decided to bring about some kind of calamity that

would cast Trump's legacy, everything he tried to do as a long-term failure, make him a hooper, herald in the second new deal, which will be orders of magnitude worse than the first New Deal, which was terrible for us, then having something like this in the back pocket that, you know, he could just toss that hand grenade on the table if anybody tries to pull that shit on Trump. And by the way, he could also, you know, succeed in his, in his term. And if his successor loses to the Democrats, he could throw that hand grenade on the table going out the door. Hey, I would like to see that right. Get everything.

Use this for a few months as a stalling tactic, get other things done and then expose everybody. I don't know. I don't want to believe in such 3D chess, 4D chess, but I don't know. A lot of other things are going in the right direction. So, I mean, what would you do? You ain't given up yet. What would you do if you had that power? you had that leverage and you had those objectives. I would suppose it. I would, I think, man, because. Yeah. But what would you gain from that? It wouldn't necessarily, it could blow up your agenda while you're still in power for everything else. And coming back to the peace in the Middle East, you know if You know younger people don't necessarily view them

You know the Middle East the way Trump's generation did but in Trump's generation seventies in particular After Israel had fought the 67 war 73 war, you know all big wars right the goal to bring That was a highly sought after goal right you know Carter wanted to do it but Egypt and Israel to the table Egypt and Israel haven't fought since by the way so you know that's kind of the perspective is like Trump, Trump's probably look at the Epstein thing and say, this is bad, but it's leverage. And if I can get, you know, a sustainable peace in the Middle East by using it to control Israel potentially, right? You know, because, you know,

the release of that information could collapse Netanyahu's government. Right. So it's serious leverage. So if you want to bring it to economics, there's some cost, right? The cost to our country by what was done to us it is what it is but you can use that to you know for a far an upside that I wouldn't be surprised that's not for DHS seems pretty obvious to me right at the beginning you know the AG came out and said we got the we got the information we're going to release the list. Now suddenly it's a 180 degree U-turn. That's suspicious. I think they got the goods and they're using them to bring

about greater effects. That's a very plausible, rational use of that information from the perspective of the White House, I think. And then I guess the question is who's the tail, who's the dog? Is the White House holding people to account or is the other way around? We're hoping that if it is being, if there is the goods as you call it, that it's being used against Israel, against the royal family, against the bankster against Israel against the royal family against the bankster organizations against the Bill Gates of the world. Maybe this is prevented a another COVID

equivalent of being released man made because of it. Maybe not maybe Trump's maybe Trump's uh you know being held hostage himself, but he almost got his head blown off. I'd hope he wouldn't be scared of anything.'s why I release it he doesn't look like they don't have anything on him that how could they possibly have not used it right so you and I've talked it on you know many times on Patriot power hour in an entirely different sphere you know back at the limited warfare we saw between India and Pakistan, we had to talk about mutually assured destruction. We did it again, talked about

it, whether or not Iran had nukes and doesn't look like they did. That's why Israel went ahead and did what they did. There was no mutually assured destruction. So I think that that's valid. And part of that entire concept is you can't strike without a devastating counterstrike, which renders the option of the first strike illogical. You're not going to do it. Right. So in those, in those strategic thinking, you know, kind of, you know, modes of framing thought, there's, there's this concept of, you know, holding your opponent at risk. Right. And if you play chess, you know,

that you use pieces to hold other pieces at risk. Right. Those pieces can't move because if they do, you can take them. They're at risk by positioning and having the ability to expose the world that Britain and Israel and the CIA collaborated for their leaders to be filmed in acts of pedophilia for whatever reason that would stabilize or integrate or confirm alliance, whatever. Just having that fact and be able to hold everybody else at risk with that information, it seems like that could be going on right now. Really does. L2 survives says the only way all this makes sense is if Trump's blackmailing these CEOs and heads of state to do his bidding or get outed. Now I've heard one person actually say they believe this so it's more everybody has some strategy behind it.

I've heard if anybody out there actually believes they're that Epstein killed himself and this is not some leverage strategy. Let us know but just want to point that out. He might have killed himself very easily. Right. If he's an intelligence operative and you you know, hit the, hit the end of the wall, the old, you know, bite the cyanide tooth type of thing. Uh, but doesn't mean he wasn't an agent and hadn't done what he had done. Um, I wouldn't use the word blackmail.

Anybody that is caught up in that is, you know, are already liable. Right? So blackmailing would be like taking the information and telling them directly I'm gonna do the X Y and Z if you don't or I'm gonna release this if you don't do things for me, right? I don't I don't think Trump's doing that They know all he's do is just you know, and he does 180 degree u-turns Look at look at what he says about tariffs, right? He's got all the world in absolute fear and turmoil because they don't know what he's gonna say next Which is obviously a deliberate strategy, right?

Same thing with this today. There are no tapes. There are no black book. There are there, you know, there is no evidence If people know people are at risk from that know that that's not true Then they're just sitting there fearing, you know, Trump doing the crazy Ivan and pulling a 180 and that could explain why Bondi and Patel and um Bon Gino were saying, hey, we're going to break this. We're investigating and we got it ready to go. Just give us a

few months and now they totally reverse courses because it was kind of it made people look at it even more like right now. There's a huge flurry. True and that's even like more people like what now it's a total scam. I'm really pissed. I'm

really looking at all across the board. Not just you know, MAGA either. So yeah, that could be that 3D chess type of the the the the the the the the the the How about we go to a break and do the news blitz? What do you say? Let's do it.

All right, let's get that rolling. We'll be right back, folks. Got a couple ads for you to check out. Streaming is just kind of tweaking out. Let's see if I can fix this. There we go. We'll be right back, folks. Stick with us.

Again, that's the Preppers Medical Handbook by William W. Fordy.

Here's my question to you. Are you really going to build that kit? Look, it's 2025. It's time to get honest. Are you going to build out that get home kit, that bug out bag? Lima Tango Survival is the best value and the best quality, frankly, that I've ever seen in pre-made survival kits. Traips in through the urban sprawl

Alright, we're back with the news blitz episode 311 July 9th. 2025. Let's go for it

straight away. Zoom in here a little bit. Let's simply go left to right in the first column Liberty. Former Texas Democrat Party County chair indicted for ballot harvesting. 15 Democrats indicted in Frio County, Texas for vote harvesting. Another article deeper into that. Epstein questions remain after DOJ denies conspiracies, outrage, grows. We talked about that in great detail. We'll go look at the long-range history of that maybe a little later. National security, well, domestic security as well.

More rioting at Portland ICE Detention Center as mob tries to storm holding cells. Unlawful assembly declared in LA as rioters clashed with National Guard. the the US. 200 Marines headed to Florida to assist ice. It's a little bit of a pickup. Not that same level as uh middle of June but definitely picking back up a little bit. Both Marines and National Guard. And of course,

that ambush on the ice officers where man was killed opening fire on on officers at the border patrol facility. Economically, not ton of news and usually there isn't in the month of July. President sends tariff letters threatening 70% levies. Sparks fear of delayed trade deals

came out and said, and future Dan sent this to me before I had seen it earlier this week, BRICS nations should get a 10% tariff minimum. If you join BRICS, you get a 10% tariff. the the the the the going up. Steady. Well above and I guess we've been around and I guess we've been around the $36 for a little longer than I thought. Times flown what can I say summer goes fast but near that multi-year high probably decade high and the all-time highest silver is within spinning distance it's like $43 or something, and it was not there for very long, so a 10-20%

increase in silver could occur pretty quick, and boom, all-time high in silver, all-time hole in gold, and of course, good old-fashioned Bitcoin hit an all-time high today. It did retrace a little bit but just above $112,000. It's currently at $111,000 and change up $2,400 today. Ether and some of the other altcoins are up as well. I call those scam coins for lack of a better term. And let's finish off with health the biggest and really the worst story of the week if not in terms of the heat map in terms of like

the horrible aspect at least. Texas flood death toll above 100. I believe at least a couple hundred are still missing, maybe more than a couple hundred. So there's also been flooding other parts of the country, but that Texas flood was intense over the weekend. That Texas flood was intense over the weekend. We have some earthquakes, hundreds of them, small, but still hundreds of them in Japan. We have an earthquake swarm beneath Mount Rainier in Washington state. There's a new variant 10% of our population being imported within the last decade as illegals. Maybe that could be the reason. I'm not sure.

Dutch lab breeds 100% fatal mutant bird flu that spreads between mammals. Yeah, read that again. A Dutch lab breeds intentionally 100% fatal mutant bird flu that's jumped to mammals, that can spread between mammals. Yeah. Speaking of other lab-grown, I'm going to call it abomination. It could be some good use for some of this technology, but lab-grown sperm and eggs just a few years away.

I don't know. Maybe in a surrogate way that actually could be helpful but it also sounds quite dystopian. And that is the news for the day. Future Dan, I'll try to get our audio synced up. I think I'm going to try to turn you down a little bit because your connection is actually stronger than mine. But anyway, that's the news blitz for you, sir. Yeah. That's our news environment.

Pretty disjointed, except for column two. Security-related incidents are clearly all tied to deportation and the rioting and violence in reaction to it. So everything else is kind of just all over the place. Lots of, lots of integrators we've seen activated and deactivated over time. So hard to, hard to characterize this week's heat map dashboard, other than to say that, you know,

calm too has integrity in you know from the perspective of being from the same basis the deportation and violence in reaction to it. Right it's hasn't the same high water mark of the also not be antagonized, but they got to defend themselves. So it's, yeah, that's a tough situation. I says, uh, doing things that I didn't even consider them likely to do. Um, some of the issues that we're having in Los Angeles right now stem from the fact that, uh, and I didn't know this, but MS-13, the Salvadoran violent gang, actually was founded or has deep roots in MacArthur Park, Los Angeles. It's considered MS-13's Mecca.

And putting on a strategic thinking hat, ICE is deliberately going into the heart of that zone as a demonstration of force. Mounted police and armored vehicles, they took over the park. And that's not necessarily a direct effort. They're not actually apprehending a large amount of locals. So in a purely utilitarian viewpoint, that's not completely effective in contribution to the deportation effort, but indirectly, symbolically, psychologically, information warfare level, it's a major blow to that gang. Yeah, it's like capturing their standard or taking their only understand that type of power struggle

or flex of power, right? And you don't, you don't ever see a federal law enforcement agency, you know, thinking in those terms. So, you know, it's, it's interesting. I'm not sure if it ultimately be effective but you know if you're inside of that gang in that area you know you can complain about it but you can't stop it. You're you're you're you're you're just subjugated to being you know like when we captured Baghdad right you could be the insurgent but you don't have the capital anymore. And you won't last very long you might be able to take a surgeon but you don't have the capital anymore and you won't

last very long. You might be able to take a couple guys with you or cause some problems but eventually you're going to get stomped out and others might be like, oh man, I'm not going over the over the trench next that I just saw

what happened to that guy. So, I'm just going to lay low or self-deport back to El Salvador or maybe they don't want to go there because they the the the the the the the they were waging war on our streets. This is kind of fighting back defending. Don't want this to turn into some brown shirt in a police state, but I don't think it's there

at this point and this is needed. Let's talk about that. This is being done to non-citizen, alien, violent organizations inside of our borders. Right. And it is not even being done by the armed forces. I mean, it could be if Trump declared an insurrection, right? Suspended policy comitatus and he could do that, right? But he hasn't, he's using ICE to do the job that ICE is designed to do. And would this carry over to a Democrat administration and become a force that we would expect that

party to use against our citizens? Let me argue that that's not necessarily easy to do, right? Because ICE has to be manned by people who believe in what they're doing, right? So ICE wouldn't be the police arm that would come and raid your house four years from now if Democrats took power. That would be the FBI. The FBI is being dismantled internally as well right now. But it begs the bigger question. And this has always been part of the thinking that I've done about could there be a police state that could

ever do that to the US citizenry? And I'm not sure it's true because that police state would have to be, you know, the personnel within it would have to be believing in what they're doing. And I'm not sure any of these organizations could ever grow big enough to successfully suppress the United States because I don't think they would have people that would that could effectively carry out that mission and That's a key reason why In my opinion besides just the voting block

The muscle of the legals coming in unfettered and imagine if Harris had won or discontinues another decade, then they would be able to get illegals to potentially join that civilian force that Obama talked about 15 years ago.

Time flies. I guess it's about that long ago. I don't think they could. I don't I don't think they could. I don't think that the caliber of people that are coming across the border would be an effective police state force. It would have to come from native-born Americans that really, really were neo-Bolshevik in nature. Look at Anapa. Look at what these people are out on the streets. They're violent, but

they're not effective and they're not well organized. The fact of the matter is there's no body of military age able-bodied men in this country that would serve in our military or in these federal law enforcement agencies in numbers great enough to suppress our country. Not today, not even in the next generation. I just don't see where that manpower would come from. You could get small federal forces or a rump US army with true believers in suppressing the US citizenry but it would be small and ineffective. Certainly I agree the professional soldiers or police officers would not be coming as illegals over here number one. Number two, that's been cut off and some are being

pushed back. Uh number three, I think it's a great point. Uh every leftist that seems to be militant or wants to be militant is pathetic excuse of a man for lack of a better terms. Can't fight. Apparently can't shoot. Not that I want them to be able to ambush but to do. I mean, they're they're the 20, 30, 50 year. That's a That totalitarian state in China wouldn't exist without the People's Liberation Army

and massive amounts of people that are, you know, it would take that. It would take a cultural revolution. It would take something that would block the patriots from joining any of these organizations. And it would take, it would take a civil war to result in a force that would have that power and that indoctrination. Right now, you're seeing lots of people joining the military. You're seeing lots of people joining ICE and being all for the mission. And you're seeing highly effective organizations at work. US Air Force, what they did to hit those bunkers or those

facilities in Iran, yeah, it was unopposed. They didn't have to fly, it contested airspace. Israel took care of that, but no one else could do that. No other Air Force in the world could do that. A lot of power there, and a lot of power there manned by patriots that wouldn't be there if the organizations weren't doing things that are in the interest of the country. So this whole fear of the police state thing, it all comes down to fear who's manning the forces. And, you know, Bala talked about having his, you know, civilian force to do such things in some vague way that scared everybody never emerged. It never happened.

Thankfully, I agree. The robot takeover we've talked talked about they don't have the energy pack ability to run these robot armies, so to speak, buddy. 3050 years from now, I'm definitely concerned of police state. I don't think it's gone away. Watch watch. Watch news out of DARPA, right? Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and a lot of their contracts are classified as Watch, watch, um, watch news out of DARPA, right? Defense advanced research projects agency. And a lot of their contracts are classified, but a lot of what they, you know, publicly are seeking to, you know, gain military edge on is, you know, out there in the public is companies get to bid and try to, you know, win work to,

you know, explore really advanced technology. And DARPA has been looking at how to put more electricity into some object that will store it, a battery, in a denser way so that you can get ground vehicles to be, autonomous ground vehicles to actually be militarily effective, not just robot dogs dancing down Constitution Avenue on the Army's 250th anniversary as a display. Those things aren't ready for action in any serious way. They don't have enough electricity. They can't go long enough. They don't have enough electricity. They can't go long enough, right? So you're going to need like a material, like technology readiness level one, basic physics

kind of like breakthrough before you're ever going to have the electricity necessary to run around with ground robots. Air is more forgiving. Drones in the air, obviously they're up there. They're out there. They exist. We've you know, we're leading the world in that technology. No doubt, right? But on the ground, like something that would actually replace ground forces. It's not scientifically feasible right now. the country is not visible

point. I don't really think any of them would come and take other patriots. In fact, half the military and police and ICE or probably more would lay down their arms for the corrupt government and join the resistance if it came to that, I would hope and expect. So yeah. The FBI has been a dangerous organization in the last 10 years under Democrats and under Trump the first time But it's you know that that kind of organization inside of the FBI is getting just dismantled Hiring freezes the biggest way they're doing hiring freezes and Forcing people out with early retirement. And the Supreme Court just upheld Trump's power to do this, which we expected. So there's going to be a wrecking ball taken to the pockets of proto-tyranny that were being set up by by

Biden and before him Obama. So if if if that party gains power again, they're going to have to be rebuilding for a while. So it's not on the news blitz because it happened uh more than a week ago or just about a week ago and maybe it's not necessarily dangerous but the big beautiful bill I think it was about a week ago more than a week ago or just about a week ago and maybe it's not necessarily dangerous but the big beautiful bill passed and was signed at going to add a

lot of debt over time but it does have a lot of good things to it. A lot of pork as well. It's a mixed bag. I don't like all the spending involved though but what's your take on, on that bill that did pass in the last, since our last broadcast? The most powerful economic idea that I've ever learned and it's been, you know, utterly rejected by mainstream economists, but never effectively disputed is art laffers curve, the laffer curve, right?

So you know, if you pull back on the level of taxation and promote economic activity, ultimately you can increase revenue to the US Treasury with lower tax rates. It's worked every single time it's been tried. Yeah, the bill increases the debt. Okay. I'm looking at what it does to the GDP. If the GDP is a blowout, which it has every chance of being for the next eight, nine quarters, ten quarters, whatever is left in effectively in Trump's term.

I'm not sure we're having the same conversation at that point in time. The revenues and then I'm not even talking about the tariffs on top of that. It's if it adds, I guess going back to the the spreadsheet or the accounting point of view, if every dollar of additional debt is matched with a

dollar of growth and it's just net zero. Then then that's actually a good thing because there's a dollar of tax revenue a dollar a dollar of tax revenue because there was $10 of growth. Yeah. Okay. I I guess I mean, I don't I didn't

do my homework on this. So, I don't know the exact numbers. Let's just say it adds $3 trillion of debt over 5 years. Well, if it grows the GDP by $3 trillion over that 5 years, then it's uh you know, that should be fine. I guess you're

saying it will grow the tax revenue. So, it actually had to grow the GDP 10 times the rate to then tax down to balance that. So I get what you mean there. Um, the point is when you hear about these bills and if you ever listen to Democrats or all the organizations and you know, the news that supports Democrats, they always look at it as a static model, right? And it's it's always wrong, right? When you promote economic growth, you get more tax revenue and it it does help to balance budgets. So, yeah. I would go

as far to say that, you know, even if there's a slight paper loss, it still could be worth it if those investments are made wisely in real capital and real production that may bear fruits 10, 20, 30 years down the road so you can't really capture an immediate GDP. You know what I mean? Like, I'm all about that. We don't have to absolutely balance it. We can run a little bit of a deficit, but there's a lot of porky pig in there and I just wanna see less spending. I really wanna see less taxes,

but I really wanna see less spending too. But I can understand in the short term here, got a jumpstart, the dead patient, the economy was really in crappy shape this time last year and really hasn't been in awesome shape since COVID. It just got injected with trillions and trillions of fake cash. So, I

get it. I get it. I'm I'm much more with this, I guess, in terms of sacrificing it to boost the GDP than I am, for example, the Epstein leverage perspective. But I'm still not a fan of the storage perspective but I'm still not a fan of uh all the deficit spending all the the BS. You know, they're spending like

tens of millions of dollars to move some old space shuttle to a new museum. It's already in a perfectly good museum. You're going to spend like 30 or 40 million dollars on that **** That's like 20 times more than I'll ever pay in my life. That's 20 of me lifetime payments to move a museum piece like this.

I don't know, man. Just saying. Yeah, I get you. I get you. But, uh, the way that the federal government's been structured, especially since the new deal FDR, that, you know, it's, it's, if you can cut it, but if you cut it too much, you're going to lose political power. You're going to, you're going to directly affect enough voters lives in a negative way that you'll lose power with the, with the margin that

the Republicans have in Congress. This literally is the best bill that could get passed. You know, if if the Republicans picked up twenty seats in the house and four or five more in the Senate, I think you'd get a bill that addressed the deficit much more seriously but it's it's just not where the power is balanced right now. It's not that's why y'all had to take care of yourself. Prep and power. Power is balanced right going to keep hitting all time highs. So, we'll gold and silver, probably real estate too. Some real estate in certain areas is starting to roll over a little bit but there's still a lot of expensive real estate out there and land, quality

land is not dropping in value anytime soon. So, there's ways to at least try to take this into your own hands if you, you know, so I think the proof will be in the pudding. I like, I'm really interested to see what the inflation and the GDP numbers look like in the next 6 to 18 months. Pretty much up

to the midterms, right? So, that's probably what it would peak in terms of positive. So, that is potentially beneficial for the midterms for sure. What do you think of Musk filing for the America party? Well, here's another one where I, this is a great show of sacrificing my ideals for pragmatic action, I suppose,

where I totally would love to have a third party come in and just trounce the Republicans the Democratic side of the the Democrats. It would just hand the Democrats wins. I'm pretty sure because you know, for II would assume I'm not a pollster for you know, every five, you know, let's just say 1010 people that go and join the America Party, a couple

independents maybe or people that never voted or hated voting, right? And they're going to give it another chance. And then maybe a couple Democrats, but there'll be like five or six MAGA types. So my point is, it'll really take away from from the Republicans and it'll give the Democrats a chance for victory, I think. What do you think? If they, if, if must, and I think he said this,, he's, he's a pretty smart guy. Um, they're going to target certain seats and if they can target certain seats and pick up, you know, a block of maybe 20, you know, in, in the house.

Right. And now that block has power. Right. that block has power, right? If it could ever achieve enough of seats in Congress so that nothing could pass without the American party going along with it, we'd start to see kind of some of the factions that we saw, you know, going back to the Civil War, right? You know, and earlier in our public's history, when the parties weren't as thoroughly just, you know, two-party system. We don't have a two-party system by law by any means, right? So it's feasible. But when you have first past the post plurality wins, right?

Most votes win to get a seat. And that's mostly the case in most jurisdictions in the United States, some places, you know, Louisiana and others, you have to have a runoff, you know, so that the winner is a majority of the votes, but mostly not. When you have a system like that, it does have a lot of advantages compared to parliamentary systems elsewhere in the world. It gravitates to two parties. That's just kind of a political science kind of axiom. It's not really anybody's fault. I'm not sure if I'm gonna say moving. So, there's almost, there's very often a third party that comes and goes for a very short period but it's really those two main objects, those main parties kind of in a physics point of view, a two-body system with maybe a third coming in occasionally and disrupting

the gravity forces and then getting flung right off or absorbing into them. Usually, it absorbs into one or the other and that becomes the. They're not flung right off or absorbing into them. Usually it absorbs into one or the other and that becomes the dominant one. Uh probably size somewhat interesting but I was like, okay, if you say so,

you're saying we got better than the Europeans. I like it. Uh but on the other hand, I'm sick of the Republicans. I think Magga is one of the best things that could have happened a Republican party but there's still a bunch of scum and enablers of the Democrats that

are in this party which must certainly is not happy with them. So, support that. I don't know if I'll be supporting the America party. Um but the targeted aspect. I like that meaning you know, this is the slippery slope, double in the details, but going after certain Republicans that are of the old guard, are the neocons,

and you know, the type of Republicans we don't like. I like that, that'd be awesome. Well, we got primaries, the parties have primaries, and for the longest time, those were, you know, tiny amount of voters participated in primaries. We got the mechanism You could go go live in Britain. Don't be a British subject. You don't have primaries Your left right parties choose who will be the candidate in your district

Take it or leave it. You never get the vote for them. We got primaries everywhere the right way to you, undo the status quo is get involved in the primaries. And Trump's definitely, he's learned this, he knows this. We got Tillis out of the Senate in North Carolina that voted against the bill and also is resigning his seat because he's never going to survive the primary. Going after Massey too, but Massey might gonna survive the world. If people participate and get out there and, you know, know when your primaries are, know who the candidates are, donate to them, campaign for them, you know, participate. You can get people into Congress that, you know, can win a primary, that, you know, undo what you see that

I don't know how many he's planning to run or just looking for 20 seats or all in. I guess gonna start somewhere though. All right, what else we got? We're almost up to an hour. Any other articles? You want to have a look at the Black Ops suspected archive. You hinted at maybe we the the and is actually way back in 2017. Claim, DHS insider says, Weiner, that is his name, remember, Weiner the Democrat in New York. He was married to frickin', you know, Hillary Clinton's little girlfriend who just married George Soros's son, by the way. So anyway, Epstein videos will bring Mass Pedo arrest back in February 17th, 2017, you're going to be able to watch it anyway. Yeah, there's

Epstein videos will bring MassPedal arrest back in February 17th, 2017. More than eight years ago, almost eight and a half years ago, you were covering this on future danger and yeah, there are a lot of other examples with or without

Epstein. Uh unfortunately, this is a pretty packed indicator every year has a dozen or more articles and uh more and more Epstein as you get higher up but yeah, the first article in this indicator, February 20 2017 was an Epstein article.

Powerful pedophiles exposed. You know, if you just say it out loud, you're inclined to think, hey, that's a good thing. And in one sense, it is, right? It's kind of like gold soaring. Well, if you own gold, gold soaring is a good thing. But it is definitely a sign of a badly damaged republic that, you know, maybe Trump made the decision that exposing this would be just, just to destabilizing to our country and to other countries, just, you know, just, it's really not in our interest to bring it out because of, you know, things might spiral out of control from there. It got to be one of the, if it is what everyone talks about, it is global the world. We is going to hit us in 30 years. They

haven't told us about it is I can see why it could upset the fabric of civilization but on the other hand, I want these scum to be called out for the record books but it's not over yet. I guess and we all know without knowing so maybe it's

emperor without clothes thing where we all know it and maybe again, that's why DOJ in March was saying they're going to release it. Now, they've done the 180 to really get people, you know, amped up kind of that Streisand effect. I hope it's something like that. I hope they're not compromised. I'll I I hope not. They they you know, they can bring out little little drops of, leak, you know, every other month for throughout

Trump's presidency, each one designed to keep all of this in the consciousness of America and just as a threat to those that are guilty to know this, you know, you can be exposed at any single second. All right. Any other articles or thoughts for the night? Pitcher day. Yeah, I think they probably set up whatever tapes that they had that, you know, you can't actually, you know, bring a successful court case, right?

It's something about it is set up in a way that you know, you could go and arrest everybody on those tapes and everybody in the flight logs and you could prosecute them but what would happen if you lost most of those cases, right? Yeah, look at the Diddy got away with like almost everything except one of the more minor the the the the the the

the the answer or alleged client I don't know exactly. I don't I guess I'll go ahead and announce it. Why the heck not the commander and I are going to be doing some hiking and doing some other challenges. Uh I don't know. I don't want to get too much into it. I think he's

going to announce it but I don't know if he has. I haven't been able to listen to the network in the last day or two. I don't think you announced it or posted it but expect some content this weekend and then Trevor

Commander and I are going to be out and about in the woods and we'll end up at the at the Jones stead. How about that? What's what what are you trying to accomplish in the most basic form? Well, that's the thing. I don't know if I can tell or not, but I might as well. We're trying to- Is that secretive?

I don't think it is. And maybe it is, it's attorney-client privilege. It has to do with sponsorship and money, so. Okay, okay, that part, that part, let's tease it but not get into it, but. Okay. So some share of this is just keeping up your physical capabilities and your ability Okay. So, some share of this is I'm not a fan of that a lot but you know, it's not a Oz or

highland so to speak but it's sort of a physical challenge equivalent to that in a way. So, there you go. You're hardening the systems. Yeah. Deep. How about that? I'll take it. Yes. So, I'm looking forward to that. The lack of sleep is always the one that kills me, but it doesn't actually like when I'm in the moment, the lack of sleep doesn't kill me as much as I think it will. Usually we'll see, but not expecting much sleep this weekend either.

So I'm wondering if you're paying attention enough to conventional conservative news to have noticed how an anti-fed attitude is pretty mainstream in the GOP right now, Trump has normalized that the entire idea that the federal reserve should be an independent, you know, quasi executive branch agency that that gets to do whatever it wants under its own governance is directly threatened on a daily basis from the very top, the president, to many of his economic surrogates who get questions whether they're going to be the next Fed chair and they all smile and then bash the Fed to, you know, calling into question the spending at Fed headquarters in DC, like the elite food and art collections and renovations of lovely building top terraces, they are under attack by...

If there's a uni party, there's only one wing attacking it right now. And it's the, you know, stauntly conservative base. And you'd never would have heard that under a previous Republican presidents in your life. No, and it's something that's a little surreal, but I love it whenever I see anything talking trash about the Fed on anywhere, really. But of course, on the Fox News of the world or other, you know, more mainstream I don't want to be talking trash about the fed on anywhere really but of course on the Fox News of

the world or other you know more mainstream radio for example YouTube glad to hear it. I don't want all that momentum and fervor to just be squandered on. Hey, if we just change the the fed chairman and they lower rates to the Fed is going to be on hey, I don't want that type. I hopefully a lot of people are more aware and awake than that nowadays, but a lot of people will go along with that narrative. Do you agree that the dual mandate should be governed by federal policy at all? Controlling inflation and controlling unemployment or employment by setting a rate that other banks run off

of? Is that your fundamental criticism that that structure shouldn't exist at all? Or has your criticism lied in the fact that it was an unelected, unaccountable, quasi-governmental organization that was running it out of control of any properly elected official. Yeah, I think you hit on it more there. If this is just a consortium of banks that under their own free will decided to work together and float their own interbank lending and set their own rates amongst each other. You know, that can still be a cartel

and have a lot of problems, but the fact that they're doing that with the legal tender of the United States of America is the bullshit. They're not just doing it with their own. They're doing it with our money, with the reserve currency of the world. And we're doing it with our money with the reserve currency of the world. And that's you know that's what I love. I love bitcoin about is uh people can go start their own coin of any type and there are

some successes and there's reasons to use something else but I don't have to worry about that if I stick with bitcoin. So it's the tie into the the the the the

the that. Not many. Um exactly. So, it's just like it's forced. So, it's not free market. These banks are working together and they're trying real hard to set the right rates to grow and make their stockholders happy and there's some risks to that

but that I would that'd be much more palatable if it wasn't literally the US dollar that they were doing it with and the only source like they have the monopoly on that. There's not like twenty competing interest rates in America from

different banks and consortiums but a decentralized blockchain is free market. That's why it's so volatile up and down but it's not being suppressed or pumped or both pump and dump. So going back to the dual mandate, so you, you reject the idea that a federal entity

of, or any, any aspect of the state should attempt to manage rates to, you know, with, with the intent of holding inflation low or increasing employment. You, you just, you think that should all be done by the private sector. the need to do. Do we need transfer payments to the poor? Do we need government projects and infrastructure or should it all be privatized and all that? Um need some government spending but it's become a huge crutch

and a massive part of the economy in the last 100 years. Government is so large part of it now and I don't know. Musk said a constitutional amendment the the the the the That's funny that you attribute that to Musk. The balance budget amendment idea started during Reagan's presidency and was really pushed by George H.W. Bush. And they couldn't

get it anywhere close to becoming a constitutional amendment. Oh, I could see that being essentially impossible. Almost as impossible as getting Congress to just have the honor system to not exceed a certain deficit. No, it's possible. You just have to have enough people voting for enough representatives, especially at the state level because never forget, it's never happened, but a convention of the states could occur. You don't have to have Congress to change the Constitution. So It just it take a big enough national will that's why

It's your power hours out here talking about these issues that lay dormant that become the status quo No one ever questions. No one ever challenges. I shouldn't say no one. There's lots of patriots questioning and challenging Ron Paul foremost in some of these regards for a long, long time. Just not enough people, not enough people to really tilt it. But you know, this entire country, this entire structure, our federalized system, 50 states, four territories, the ability to self-govern, the ability to, you know, it just, it takes awareness and it takes will. And if you had the awareness and you had the will, anything's possible. I like it. That is exactly what we're doing. I liken it to, earlier in the show, you were

talking about we need a general technology improvement in material science and battery technology. You need just that general level of technology needs to go up before more specific project based technology, I guess. Same thing

with the patriotism and understanding of the citizenry. It's true. Meet a minimal levels of certain education and motivation. Certain things just can't get unlocked. For lack of a better term, you can't unlock the next you know, evolution or level up or whatever. Yeah. So, that's what we're doing on picture power this summer. Summer season 2025. We're

setting the stage to help all this level up to a freer, fairer, more secure American Republic. Great stuff. Great show. Future Dan will be back next week and uh expect some content from Intrepid Commander and I, alright? Yeah, looking forward to that, Ben. Thank you all to our audience for listening to Patriot Power, episode 311.

Catch you next week. Thank you for watching!
