Statement of purpose. Should I email you? Should I put this on your action item list? You decide your own level of involvement. We are the Prepper Broadcasting Network. 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 editor of future danger.com. Patriot Power Hour.

Live once more. It's August 20th, 2026. And it's, you know, the 358th episode, hard to believe, but we keep on, keep on rocking. I've been to break our bankers here with Future Dan. Future Dan, we hit $40 trillion in debt officially. We did. We did.

It might be a centerpiece of the heat map dashboard. Stewart tonight, which is very full, much more news than we typically ever get in the middle of an August, Ben.

It's going to take us at least 20 minutes to read through the different headlines and indicators. And then we got to actually talk about how these impact. And there's a lot of important news. This is not just been where, you know, this is cursory news.

This is topical. I will say there are some pieces of news here that don't rate, extremely high, but it's very active. And there are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, nine headlines that are ShtF. So there is some topical sort of news, but there's a lot of midgrade and there's a heck of a lot, especially relative to this time of the year. Normally, you know, August 20th, I would have to say this is the busiest dashboard. There might be a couple of reasons for that future day. I'll let you dive into that, but I think it truly is a very active news environment right now.

You do have to stand aside the mainstream media's anti-Trump tendencies, right? Some of this stuff, ask yourself a question, were they reporting on this when Biden was president? And if it doesn't seem true, then, you know, you got a built-in political dimension to this. But everything's earned its way on to the heat map dashboard tonight. And I want to make an announcement, Ben. Okay, go for it. Artificial intelligence previously been around the margins of what I do to create

and maintain future danger.com. Now it's pretty much, I would say that the large language models have gotten to the point where they can be asked to produce quality representative news articles for these indicators on a consistent basis. Search the internet, pull them back, avoid censorship and biases that I don't want. Open up the search to all sources

and actually have the logic to map them to 492 indicators and to look for news in periods of time against 492 indicators. I can tell you that the subscriptions I've used for AI even a half year ago would have struggled at that. it's now a main tool of producing the news on future danger. It's not the only one. There are other sources that I look and think about that I always want to see on a daily

basis. But a lot of these news articles are going to be mainstream articles. Some of them you might hit a paywall. Sorry about that. It depends on, you know, they take paywalls, put them up, take them down. What can I do, right? But much more news. So for the audience,

out there. Some of this stuff, ask yourself, would I have cared if it was, you know, under Biden or, you know, does it tell me what direction we're going in? I'm not so sure that the news that I've found with AI, it should be fully trusted. I want your opinion on that, Manchester Breaker. As a matter of fact, once it was concluded the heat map dashboard. Well, for a lot of new listeners, future danger.com is what we're talking about. a lot of new listeners influx into Prepper Broadcasting Network since Preper Camp last week.

And just over the summer, listenership is up. So if this is your first time, Patriot Power Hour, we use Future Danger as the spine of the news portion or aspect of this show. Here's what I would say, Future Dan, if you trust AI to do this, then I trust it because you've done this by hand for 10 plus years. And I know the last thing you would do is, you know, the integrity of your website and the entire effort you've done for more than a decade, you would not hand that over to AI unless you trusted it to do a good enough job. But also, I'm sure, and I know that you have guardrails and ways for human input. So it's not fully automated by any means. You have the ability to still have a human touch. Oh, everything.

I read every article before I put them on. for sure. Right. They've all been opened and looked at to make sure they say what the headline suggests they say. Absolutely. I'm just concerned about edge cases in the green grade five, low danger, not zero, but low danger headlines.

How many edge cases that could have gone either way are kind of making their way in here? So I'm actually trying to protect the long-term concerns. consistency of the data. So, you know, I want to make sure that stuff that is, you know, route to routine to be worthy of Patriot Power Hour or the dashboard that'll make its way on.

Get it, absolutely. Based off my review so far, I think it's all quite serious. I'm not seeing any grasping for content, but let's go ahead and take the dashboard, you know, one column at a time, and we'll discuss it, you know, both the articles as well as the new feel of future danger, all right? Yeah, we're in a critical August, 2006. Have that, it then.

All right. Let's start with economics and let's start with ShtF level news about treasury rates. It goes hand in hand with the $40 trillion in debt. It's kind of, you know, another side of the coin rates surging while debt. is also searching. U.S. long-term borrowing costs hit 25-year high. Highest since 2008, highest interest rates. Yield on 30-year Treasury, two-decade high, 5.33%. So just as Asia was seeing massive, massive collapse in equity markets, but also spikes interest rates, it was coming over here to the Pacific across the Pacific.

But the Treasury, that same day, the morning of, they say, look, we're going to not only buy back some of our debt, we're going to double what we had proposed previously. So Treasury Secretary announces double the debt buyback program to steady the bond market. We'll get deeper into that down the line. But let's keep moving. One knock on effect of all that. Gold up 3%.

Bitcoin up 10% in the last couple of. days. Gas prices reach highest ever recorded for August of any particular year. Borrowing costs, not just for mortgages, but not just for government, but corporations all going up, up, up. And debt as a share of GDP last scene at this level, World War II. So we're in World War II level debt compared to GDP. Private credit is one place you will see stress and perhaps collapse. Troubled loans, foreclosure rates, etc. Repos and just the lack of people trying to even get loans because the interest rates are so high. We're seeing signals of that. And yes, personal bankruptcy filing surging. So there's the economic

And I see zero articles That should not be in there So that is a full hit right there But I believe a lot of those would have shown up Regardless, but who knows? We'll talk about that down the line, but that's a Full column that deserves to be there to say the least.

Let's move on to Natural News and Health The fourth column. Second for the night tonight, though. Week long, life-threatening American Heat Dome was predicted. It's been a pretty hot summer. Flooding in Indiana,

six people killed a fair amount of property damage. Hawaii was hit with a hurricane last weekend. 100 homes swept away. Power outage, but nothing too catastrophic, thankfully. Those are three articles that should be on the dashboard, but are not, you know, particularly trouble someone less here in that region, but they deserve to be there, in my opinion.

How about this? This is a dense, very dense indicator. Pestilence befalls. Let's test out a few of these headlines. Record measles cases in the United States, 35-year high. Excuse me, recorded measles cases at a 35-year high. A boll of victim in Congo province, not previously affected by the ongoing outbreak ends up dying. So we've talked about Ebola this summer. It hasn't spiked and gone crazy, but still have some concerns. Measles outbreak in Kentucky, so not just in USA, but particularly in Western Kentucky, there's a dense outbreak in Western Kentucky.

5,000 cases going back to Ebola, 101 predicted in the last 24 hours. so it's not going away. Even though it's not going parabolic, still 101 new cases of Ebola, which is very deadly in the last 24 hours. Deadliest in Congo's history. That's an important watermark. And Portuguese man of war plagued, jellyfish,

coming out to the European beaches. It's so warm in the water, I suppose. That's scary. I was always worried about those. that one's behind a paywall. I wanted to go look at that right now, but we'll talk to future day and maybe about that one. Two oil slicks appear in the Gulf from huge spill off Oman. 7.2 million acres of the U.S. have burned so far in 2026.

There was a 7.7 magnitude earthquake, which is one of the biggest we've seen since Patriot Power Hour started a decade ago or a little less. So 7.7, quite large. in Indonesia, 47 dead. Peru, 6.7 magnitude earthquake. We, of course, saw Venezuela and Colombia had big earthquakes earlier this year. Pacific Rim seems quite active.

Don't see any volcanic activity today, though, which we often have seen this summer. And finally, in the nature column, Lake Powell, Lake Mead, reservoirs hit record lows amid Western drought. Potentially Hoover Dam stopped producing electricity they're talking about. So record lows for Lake Powell and Lake Mead.

That's the natural news column. Maybe there was a couple articles. I wouldn't have made it normally, but I think all those deserve their place to say the least. Let's move back on over to the Liberty Indicators try to go through this as quick as possible. There is a lot of news. We're going to have to really run through these.

Here we go. We'll start with Shtf level privacy annihilated. Comcast turns millions of routers into motion and identity sensors. So Comcast cable, which is, of course, NBC. Millions of routers, motion and identity sensors. and flock. James Walton talked a bit about flock today on his show and the network has as well.

But it is more than just license plates. It has an AI tool that lets police search for people by how they drive. No plate or name or crime is needed. There actually can program AI to find trends and find you without even your license plate. or your name, privacy annihilated. We have, let's go towards the top.

We have broadcast networks ignoring new Fauci texts on COVID vaccine and pregnancy and miscarriages, etc. Under news blatantly censored. New York state law bans glocks and similar modern pistols. Senator Rand Paul goes to Fort Knox to verify U.S. gold stockpile says it still exists. He says it still exists. DOJ to deploy a record 1,000 federal monitors to polling places nationwide for the midterms coming up this November. President says Census Bureau analysis confirms 24,000 foreigners voted in 2020 with at least 32 million records to be analyzed.

There's a lot of records to still be analyzed. 24,000 does not sound like a lot, but that is quite a lot. Fourth Circuit blocks arresting criminal illegal aliens, hiding in churches. So, Fourth Circuit blocks the arresting of criminal illegal aliens, hiding in churches when they're claiming that this policy burdens religious exercise, scares off the illegal aliens. So, I guess amnesty in the church. for the illegals. President threatens to bomb Oman

over the Hormuz. And as we saw on a different article earlier today, the oil slicks, huge spill off of Oman. So that war is still ongoing. That looks to be the end of that column. So let's move on to the final column.

Really all focused on national security and domestic security. Japan to test, hypersonic missiles in Australia. Lois Alamos, lab workers' death looks like murder. Declassified FBI files show suspected Chinese intelligence operative, compromised, former California congressman. Eric Swalwell confessed.

South Korea forces fire warning shots after North Korean soldiers cross the demarcation line. President orders joint exercises with South Korea scaled back. which is almost the opposite of what you expect, but he has his reasons. We'll talk about that. South Korea is seeking the wartime command at the same time. China completes work on man-made island, ideally placed for a Taiwan invasion.

Who needs an aircraft carrier or amphibious landing when you got artificial island. And National Guard activated going back to floods in Indiana. National Guard activated. Evacuations forced. But Dan, unless I missed any,

that's the newsblitz. Yeah, it's meant to be anything and everything dangerous to the USA and her people in the last six days. What do you think?

I think essentially every one of these should be on there. And maybe a couple of those would not have been on there without AI assistance and so therefore AI is helping quite a lot. I don't see any false positives or like if I had to pick one that was a false positive

maybe the Portuguese man of war. Like I don't know. But still, whatever. We have a lot of natural news like that. Something that's, you know, topical and normally could have got picked up anyway. Maybe when there's just pestilence and plague on American beaches. we should restrict it to that.

But think about it. Like if you had that go out of control on the East Coast during the summer, you know, that would be the economic impact, right? So. Certainly. Yeah, that one's a little bit edgy.

But yeah, good job covering it all. Where would you like to begin on this analysis? Appreciate it. It's going to be tough for me. I'm going to have to really make sure I'm warmed up before. newsblitz is in the future, but where do I want to start? That's

another thing. My voice has got to handle it. My brain's got to handle it. Right now, I want to touch on everything, but I am the breaker banksters. So let's just hit on some of the Treasury rates and the economics super fast and go from there. What do you say? So Treasury Secretary is trying to punish shorts

with that buyback. And I'm not sure if that's the second time in the month. If it was, there's an article that says that's the second time the Treasury did that, I might have missed the other one, but doing it twice is definitely a danger side. And now everybody's saying that it had zero effect. I'm looking back in the month of July when we started to see the 30-year gain. I think we hit a headline and we talked

about it the day, Ben, when it moved up four basis points. And I asked you a question, how many basis point move in a single day before you know something very severe has broken. Right. It's like five shows ago, four shows ago. Yep. And you said 10 in a day. And I'm not sure we've had 10 in a day. We had many two to three basis point climbing, climbing right into this month.

Is all hell about to break loose? Should this be looked at like, listen for big cracking sound? because things are about to break 2008 style. It's not going to be the same after. I think it's more of that, right, what you said. There's a ceiling for those that are watching, you know, we have a lot of radio listeners, but those that are watching live or watching archive,

what's going on, shout out to you especially. I'm showing you guys, CNBC.com, go straight to the belly of the beast, pulled up the 10-year treasury yield, and right now it's sitting at about 4.71%. kind of where things get really scary is above 5%. You know, and as you approach it, it gets scarier. Because mortgage rates would go through the roof and all the different types of debt instruments.

So what we've seen since 4th of July is this going from 4.4 to 4.75. If it continued on that rate and then by the midterms or even before, we'd be well above 5%. And it seemingly was on that trajectory, especially to start this week. But, and without getting too much in the weeds, what's happening is the Fed on one end is trying to sop up some of this excess debt themselves, the Federal Reserve. But also now the Treasury is going to buy short-term debt instruments. And guess what? We already are running a deficit every year. The only way that the Treasury can buy back our own debt is by issuing new debt,

and that new debt will be at a worse interest rate down the line. So it's kicking the can down the road. And now, whether this is working or not is a question. It did stop anything from going above the 4.75. So if they can keep it below 5%, they're going to consider it working, but they may not be able to drop it back to 4.4, 4%, or anything like that. without an emergency kind of intervention, which, hey, maybe we'll get that. So are globalist banksters trying to Hoover Trump for American Democrats?

It could. Our thesis, especially yours, all this show's been that they would try to wait until the presidential election in 2028, but maybe they feel like they couldn't hold the things together that long, so you might as well do it now. If you wanted to put the tinfoil hat aspect of it. It also could be that they are just full tinfoil. Yeah, full tinfoil. The non-tip foil is that they might just be losing control, which could be worse almost. I agree.

Yeah, and the timing of it. So if my original theory is that they'd wait until, you know, about the same time COVID-19 showed up ahead of Trump's reelection, 11 months, 10 months. All right. That 10-month window worked really well. He didn't have time to fire Fauci and fucking disown vaccines and reopen everything. He just slid right into an election that didn't end up with him retaining power. Are they rushing that again because they feel really good? If we're going to say a full tinfoil hat, all these things can be controlled.

So this is going to get dropped on Trump to leave him for a century. being the scapegoat for another great depression, right? Or are they really losing control because, you know, this is, you know, what, 2, 26, 8 months ahead of the next presidential election? Yep. All great questions. I'm one who thinks there's a lot of the variables going together. So there's a lot of reasons why potentially, I would say,

though to kind of find it to kind of support that they're losing control potentially is what's going on in Japan and South Korea. And that infection, if their market collapses, it'll blow back on us so badly because of the carry trade because we've been using. What's that mean? Lots of people don't know what carry trade is. so the Japanese have had extremely low interest rates like free money that you could borrow in yen. And then everyone was buying U.S. debt.

So a big portion of the national debt that was purchased in the last 20 years was because people were making a little arbitrage trade between Japan, which had very, very low interest rates. and our interest rates. Now, during certain periods, our interest rates went to like 0%. But Japan went negative for all intensive purposes. But anyway, for most of this period, there's been a solid spread or carry trade. And it's almost like easy money.

But when that unwinds, it gets nasty. What's happening is really Japan has been doing what we're doing, but like they're 10 years further down the road. So they've been doing all the bailouts and the treasury buying debt equivalent and the, their Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan has been doing all the shenanigans to try to do the quantitative easing and all that stuff. No one believes that anymore. They've literally exhausted seemingly every financial engineering scheme in the world.

Maybe they need to like hire Citadel and Bernanke to come up with something new. I mean, I think they've already tried. No. So anyway, their interest rates are going really high. And that's causing their markets to collapse and soon it'll be unemployment. I mean, we're not even seeing unemployment yet. But when if it went huge corporate bankruptcies and layoffs happen, then it'll just really snowball. So anyway, their interest rates are exploding. The West is like, hey, we will try to help you Japan so you don't collapse everything. But that's just that's circular. It's more banksteryism. And for a prepper, you know, you should just know that inflation is going to go up. And it might be really hard to borrow money.

So you may not want to, you know, it might be too late to borrow money if these interest rates really explode. This is August 20th, 2006. And I got a really strong feeling what you just heard folks coming back in the future. It's going to be a window into what's happening. well I'd be remiss if I didn't say tomorrow is the 15 year anniversary of dethrone the banksters we'll get back to the news but I figured I'd have to throw it in here real quick future Dan let's uh oh it's not like you haven't said it before but in the current environment the current set of facts it what you're describing is resonating let's just say it's

it's more tangible than ever, Ben. Well, this all goes, yes. fucked up this right image of it. But I just want to say, in the last 15 years, we went from from four years, future Dan, I think we both

connection but I think we're both back. Are you there? Yeah, you were rubber band in a bit, but I'm back. If you can hear me. Yep, I got you back. Not sure why I rubber banded, but we're going back to the news anyway. So here we go. All right. I think we hit a lot of the Baxter stuff. Shout out to the to throw into Bancers' 15-year anniversary. Gas prices and diesel especially continue to ride future dance. So that's another reason rates are going up is because inflation, When inflation goes up, rates have to go up to match it. That's just another force that's involved. And that's just math.

That's beyond any political stuff, really. Yeah, the math of, we're measuring debt now by the, what, the minute, $90,000. Is it a minute per second? It's ridiculously scale of debt being added. Second. Yeah, that's bad. That's super bad. added a million dollars since you started this thought.

Not good. That's pretty much my, all the tax I'll pay as a tax cow for the federal government is less than what has already been added to the debt just since we've been talking about this particular article. That's astronomical. It's really scary, actually. So anyway, we got, let's see, about halfway through the show tonight, future Dan. we got man how many articles do we have today we might have to start uh counting them um i know you can't on the back end but it looks like at least 50 articles we've hit a solid 10 of them i think when we group them all together but where do you want to head next any of these in particular

just just an update that hasn't made the e-map dashboard uh swalwell's been rated now by the fbi i that's a little bit of an update to you know hit that story uh might be you know some some real evidence of Chinese espionage at the constitutional officer level, right? That's what a congressman is. So stay tuned for that. One thing we're not seeing this summer is violence. There's no violence in the streets. Hasn't been any situations provoked.

He'll police brutality, ice. It's just we don't have rioting, right? So think about the, you know, the, I. amount of news we got now, it's something like that, you know, came, came into play on top of this. You know,

that's a lot of news, a lot, that would be, that'd be crisis. You know, we're pretty much at a poly crisis level tonight. But that, you know,

then you got to think about what's not happening, too. Great point. Well, the polycrite, I don't know. That's why I'm a big fan of your AI is we're worried about what's, we're not,

what we're missing. I think we could be more confident than ever that your your net is being cast wide and with little tweaking it'll be even better. Sorry, I've been looking at fang-fang she's alluring to me. I was looking at a fang-fang. Yeah, raiding his offices. We'll talk a lot about that when we get more information next week, but he's already confessed, Eric Swala, well, confessed to drug-fueled sex romp with Fang-fang and says that he has, he was on Ambien, I wasn't even really remember it. But, you know, she ended up getting interns placed into his office. And who knows what other kind of access on behalf of CCP.

So he was on the Intel community. He's on the House Intel Committee. And got to wonder how many other of these type of spies are in there. I mean, she's pretty obvious, I guess. But yeah, I don't know. Not good at all. And that's exactly why the corruption of the FBI is a critical, critical problem. That's the agency that, you know, counter espionage is their mission.

So the dangerous part to me is, you know, Swalwell's voters didn't care, don't care, don't know, don't spend any time, look the other way, doesn't matter to them. Probably some of them are just quietly applauding that China's helping them. Yes, there's a portion that do that. And then there's a portion that just won't believe it and say, oh, it's just Red Scare. You guys are mean, you know, that they're so ignorant that they're like, oh, Red Scare, Red Square, oh, McCarthyism or something. There's no spies.

This is all made up. How many people in Swallow's district know anything about that history? Like the foreign-born percentage must have. be, you know, astronomical compared to historical norms. No, those people got taught the red scare in the 1950s in the United States in whatever schooling they got before they illegally moved here.

I don't think they don't even know. I'm biased towards the 70-year-old liberals, what they're saying, not the other sides of the socialist republic they're trying to form. I'm just looking at his constituency. That's the scary part. Not that he did it. Not that China would try.

Not that we weren't able to stop it. All that can be repaired, right? Through elections. But the people that elected him, that constituency, that's the problem. Right. The true rot on the floorboard. Under the floorboard, that is. Also under foreign black ops suspected Los Alamos lab workers' death.

Looks like murder after the autopsy. We've been hitting on this case in particular, but a lot of disappearances and odd deaths, etc. Of, well, running from the UFO to nuclear secrets to Intel community, whatever. But right here, fresh autopsy findings on the skeletal remains of a Los Alamos National Laboratory Administrative Assistant, who we did report on earlier this year, delivered a direct challenge to any suggestion of suicide. Propped up against a tree in a remote stretch of New Mexico forest

a year after she vanished. Gunshot went through the base for a skull, and after a full autopsy, seems like it was maybe set up to look like a suicide. And there's other evidence that shows that, you know, unlikely it was her included a tobacco pouch possible horse hair, some clothing, and just other circumstances, as well as chain of custody problems. So very, I guess future Dan, this rates within the SHTF indicator.

You want to expand more upon what this means and some of the trend we've seen this year for people that maybe didn't hear other episodes where we talked about this. Yeah, something important to understand if you're new to future danger. The most, usually the most recent headline drives the grade. And that's, you know, so not necessarily every headline is grade one. S-F-H-H-T or F-F-T, yeah. So that alone probably would have been more closer to topical because there's no evidence of espionage there. I still want to know where the Air Force Research Lab retired commander went. Yes.

That Air Force General is still missing. You never saw that resolved. I never saw it on this. It hasn't been. That hasn't been. They don't know. They don't know what happened. Right.

So you're going to attack a country like us taking advantage of the freedoms in a very warlike manner. Throw up in the United States and just, you know, start killing our, killing our kidnapping, retired generals and admirals. You know, did that happen? I don't know. Does anybody know where he went? not publicly if they know somehow the surveillance state probably knows somehow but

what does not behoove them to release it perhaps that would be my guess any other surprises on the heat map dashboard any other hot spots that you're seeing news that you didn't think you might be seeing tonight

well I want to absolutely hit on the other ShtF level articles and it's a all about privacy being annihilated. Yeah. And one is with flock, which we've talked about. And others on this network have talked about.

But it's way beyond now, just the license play reader. And just look at what's going on in China. That's what they would love to have here. They could not just face reading, but they can read your gate. And who knows the other type of digital fingerprints and biometrics. so yeah flock built an AI tool that lets police search for people by how they drive and this is just ongoing efforts in this but it's just not it's not just flock that's what hopefully everyone understands this is just one problem of the attack there's many other in the surveillance state surveillance state so it's not just flock I'm glad they're getting called out though right about time I became an adult

the Tiananetmen massacre happened. And I distinctly remember watching the news. I want to say it was like ABC Nightly News, Tom Brocah, where they were doing a report and showing dissidents in China and really highlighting all the surveillance cameras and all the streets in Beijing and how the survivors of, the massacre, we're slowly being hunted down, rounded up, and disappeared.

And just the whole point, you know, this is 1989, the whole point of it was like that just grotesque surveillance state. You know, look at the way the Chinese are with that, right? Communist China. Yep. And look at America in 2006. Dangerous. Certainly.

And, wow. 1989 to now. Can you imagine the amount of infrastructure that's been put in place, not to mention the advances in technology, and just how much wealthier China is, so they can invest even more into the surveillance? Well, trust me, some of the powers that be here in the West also want that sort of lockdown.

In fact, I think London has more surveillance cameras per square meter. Maybe China beats them out. It's probably unreported, but some of the big cities here are already locked down like that. But adding drones and infrared and all different types, let alone, of course, data mining and the internet, the tracking of the internet, etc. So and the cell phones in our pocket track you too. So this is a good segue into Comcast turns millions of routers. So those routers in your home into motion sensors. and the same Wi-Fi signals can ID you with 99.9.5% accuracy.

They can use the Wi-Fi signals and other methods to determine how far away you are. They can detect you through rooms and they can tell how tall you are, your dimensions. So that's why they can identify, you know, identify you with 99.5% identity, excuse me, with confidence. It's pretty creepy there. Yeah. Sort of the effects of Wi-Fi. So watch that on the same pathways, COVID-Vax. It might take longer.

Probably take longer now because the establishment of the corporations and just the, you know, pro-surveillance dictator left are going to just ignore the health effects of those signals. But science will... eventually emerge. Truth wants to be free. There you go. I like that. That's a big foundation of Patriot Power Hour. So this is called beam forming feedback information.

And the more devices you have connected in your home, the better it can triangulate and no information about you. Again, this is not through cameras or even the audio of an Alexa or something that it's own has its own problems obviously but this is literally just how the different Wi-Fi signals bounce off you it's a polar radar it's a former radar exactly it's radio detection and ranging it's it's it's a radar if now imagine the five you have to have and imagine the 5g out in public especially in crowded areas so put that all together too um so So, Maryland State, the flock is the tip of the iceberg or one prong or whatever analogy you want.

But there's a lot more going on. Comcast, right at the center of it. One of the heads of the hydra, there you go. And the people that would mock what we're talking about are the enemy. I agree 100%. But there is one small hope but glimmer. I feel like the left and the right both hate this just for totally different reasons. So maybe we can unite to fight the police state.

But I don't know how it seems a little bit pie in the sky. But the left is pissed about this too, funny enough. Are they? I mean, the bitchy complain about it. I don't think they are not for the fundamental reasons we are angry about it, I would say. Let's talk about what we talk about at the beginning. Would this be a big controversy with all these mainstream news sources hyping this? If Harris was president right now, I think part of the strategy is just constantly

bavard the environment with bad news. And every Democrat has to tell everybody else they know how bad things are every single day. Which has a silver lining because at least this information is getting out. So Trump has kind of taken the bullets on behalf of this information if they have to move against him. it's better than repressing it to save Kamala face. So I mean, that's another good reason to get Trump in there is they have to take him down and they have to place some of their cards on the table at least.

Then does that hold water right there? Well, taking him down right now amounts to conviction and impeachment or, you know, just jailing him after he's out. Probably going to give himself a blanket pardon. And so I don't know, I don't know what necessarily, you know, short of assassinating him, God knows there's probably no shortage of people would love to try that if they could. Think of Hoover, hoovering him, but across the board,

surveillance state for obviously economically, any policy or type of endeavor he's involved with, they would try to simultaneously take him out. they're not just going to, if they're going to Hoover them, I guess, my point with the tinfoil hat going to that, they're going to do it across the board for sure. They're not going to just, but at least we get to see some of the negative stuff, even if they're trying to leverage that against Trump. I'm personally happy that this flock thing came out. And like you said, this may not be a big story if Kamala was in and that would be not a good thing. I'm glad this is coming at.

Yeah. And remember, you got a, kind of, a router in your house that's effectively a radar device you can lock it in a box right you can put it a lead box you can still have internet and not have Wi-Fi right you don't you don't have to use your mobile phone you all kinds of devices out there where you can shield your phone

so while you're traveling to and pro you can't receive or send signal it all kinds of techniques to fight back against the system so I'm not one that just kind of throws up my hands and says well the given is I have to use Wi-Fi therefore what was me because of the surveillance state you know there's another you can have other predicates to handle this

definitely good attitude and that's part of what I'm glad that we made it on prepper broadcast the network so many years ago is because like hey now I can do something about it even if it's kind of at a local level or just my own prep and etc. and just complaining about it so like you said the Faraday cage for the router and only used wired Ethernet is actually very easy to do if you want to people so it's like you could just bitch and complain about this for hours and hours and hours and maybe you should but you should also do something about it if you're going to spend so many hours complaining like spend 20 minutes to change your lifestyle I do use Wi-Fi I won't lie so I'm a hypocrite there but not very much I mostly do what maybe this is me I need to put it into the Faraday cage now because I don't really use Wi-Fi that much, but I do have one of

these routers and, you know, I love Ethernet much better, but there is Wi-Fi signal in my house, so maybe I'm talking to myself here. How about that? I'm going to do that. It's supposedly you could ask these telecoms to shut it off, but do you really trust it off? No. No way. No. No. That's not even, yeah, that's not too much tinfoil for that opinion. I think. All right. Well, okay, one more point to make on this. Just in your own house, you can do that.

But if you're walking down the street, anywhere in public, I mean, you're going to be bathed in the radiation, let alone the surveillance state. So, I mean, I know you're in public. You give up some of your right to privacy. But, man, they're really pushing an envelope with public surveillance. And I saw an article today about,

you know, police drones being used much more often. to patrol for speeding, et cetera, et cetera. Hey, we'll get a little bit more safety, but yeah, hits a slippery slope and I don't know, man. Can't escape the eye in the sky anymore. That's for sure. Yeah, yeah. I'm not sure you can't, but getting harder.

Harder, sure. All right. That was all the Shtf level indicators. Let's head back to future danger. I'm sure there's at least a few more articles we can really jump on. Loading it up. Anything on, you know, I say we got a solid 10 minutes left. What else we want to touch on tonight?

Well, we got an anniversary to celebrate. That's true. All right. We'll give it the full. Let's just roll with it. I'll go with it. I appreciate it. Let me.

So, speaking of, of, of complaining about things and then deciding to do something about it at least a little bit, you know, one step at a time about 15 years ago. I remember about my aid. We got lunch and I was just complaining.

And in all these topics. But it was 15 years tomorrow, August 21st. And I asked chat GPT to go through the entire website. I archived the entire website and find some of the most prescient quotes

and best predictions and topics from 15 years ago, 14 years ago, 13 years ago. A few of those. How about that? First and foremost, well, I kind of got ahead of myself earlier in the show If I talked, just 15 years ago, it was

under 15 trillion years ago. Future Dan, we're back. Unfortunately, when I'm trying to share my screen there, it collapsed again. This is the second time it happened tonight. Yeah, apologies to the audience.

I started to hear you rubber band, and then I left the show to see if it helped. And I can hear you now, though. Let's try to wrap this up. and you were bringing up your infographic. I'm not sure the video should make any difference to you. Well, that's the thing. It's whenever I was sharing the infographic and went to it,

that's when it broke prior and broke now. But I'm trying a different way of sharing it right now, and it's going to be a little smaller, harder to see. But I think you can still hear me and I can still hear you. So I'll just jump into it super fast. 15 years, August 21, 2011 to August 21, 2026. a few of the biggest quotes. Here we go. Inflation affects the poor much more than it affects the rich, particularly when it's the price of food and energy that are skyrocketing. That's the quote I wrote.

And chat GPT says this is absolute reality. We hit a high of 9.1% inflation back in 2022. Energy is up 41% in the last 15 years, food up double digits or more. and that hurts the working families. Of course, the black hole of debt talked all about that. But I went further and continued to go further by saying, don't just use national debt as some nebulous number. It's actually your pension. It's your insurance. It's your annuity.

And in fact, it's the stability of medical. care and social security and every other government funded obligation and pretty much every private obligation in the future is part of that national debt. So if you just say wipe the national debt out, okay, all those assets will also be out. So I was pointing that out back on November 3rd, 2011, that this debt is growing and growing. And yeah, the debt more than, I mean, it pretty much almost tripled since then and the interest rates are up. I talked big time about trade war with China. I talked to actually I had a hypothetical Israel striking Iran.

I wrote on December 27th, 2012, in a hypothetical Israel launched a surprise aerial campaign against Iranian nuclear and military targets and talking about how that was going to cause massive inflation. And I also wrote November 2011 that Iran, Syria, and Pakistan are all in the sites take your pick one or more will be the enemy soon obviously syria got wiped out thereafter and i ran in the last year or so been it can hit so there were a couple misses that i had uh back on to throw in the bankers ah it's a celebration i won't go into it too much but a couple more real quick surveillance state i wrote in 2012 drones over your head cameras in your face data on everything you

do yeah there was surveillance back in 2012, but it's only gotten worse. And I even was talking about AI and automation, jobs being automated, and that the system is designed to replace you in the coming decades and that this would take decades, not just years. Well, we're one and a half decades forward and continue to march on. And finally, I had an entire article about Facebook and how Facebook was pretty much the devil. And the last 15 years, The social media manipulation as well as censorship is just way worse than anything I imagined. In 2011, I had no idea that social media would get so big and have such an impact politically.

I knew it was big for people share photos and their family and, of course, corporations trying to sell ads and stuff. I knew social media was going to be big for sure, but, I mean, breaking news on social media. Trump has true social. Twitter was sold for what $40 billion to Musk and anyway the manipulation though I was writing that on social media my quote was

on social media the illusion of open debate is a fraud because even back then they would ban you and stuff but holy cow they got so much worse by about 2016 2015 and 2016 who is so much worse so anyway that's some of the highs of articles

I was writing 15 years ago and pretty cool to see all that and we just keep on grinding. Yeah. Yeah, it's an awesome infographics. Get those that's out on your X, X account. Maybe share it with the world. That is the right, right way to do it.

So I have a couple extra tweaks I want to do. Tomorrow is really the birthday. So I got a couple iterations. This was made with AI. So there's a couple oddities to the graphic itself. But it's like 90% there. I will say there's, open AI, added a couple communist or socialist type of touches to this because, oh,

dethrone the banksters all about class warfare. No, that's not what I'm all about. And definitely, it's, if you had to do a class warfare, it's like 0.001%, not 1%. But anyway, they had like the raised fist, universal symbol for the people, the communists,

well, we will rise. Then I'm seeing some red stars here. So a few five-pointed red stars and other, like, power to the people. And, yeah, I've seen a little bit of a crossover to the leftist Occupy Wall Street, but that's not what the throne of the banksters was all about. And so a couple of those tweaks I got to fix here before I publish this. And maybe make the color scheme look less like the Soviet flag. Yeah. I've never used a color scheme that had these yellow, gold, red, white, Soviet. Exactly. So it's, I don't think it's a coincidence that Open AI framed anti-banksters as anti-capitalism. I mean, that's what it tried to do. So there you go. I'm not going to let that fly, though.

Very important point. We're not anti-capitalism. We're anti-stateism. And it's been the stateism. since 1913 from the Federal Reserve, it brought us to this breaking point. It has not been capitalism. Exactly, exactly. It's, uh, markets have not been free. And if you don't have free markets, definitely not capitalism. It could be some,

all these other amalgamations, but not real capitalism. And also it's, uh, yeah, I don't know. I could go down a whole rabble. on that. But we got to actually get out of here, pursued future, Dan, but I appreciate you, give him a few minutes to go through this. 15 years

of truth telling. I didn't say that. It said millions have people have been reached by the throne the banksters. That's not true, but thousands have been reached through this website as well as this podcast because I decided to write that first blog post.

So anybody out there listening, man, just take one step at a time before you know it, 15 years gone by and hopefully you made some difference, you know? Yeah, why did you choose the word dethrone anyways? That's a great, great question. I don't know exactly why. I did write an article early on that said a big portion of the banksters is the old royal family.

So that's a big portion of the bankster power comes from the royals and the old royal family and aristocrats and whatnot of the last 500 plus years. Europe. So it was kind of, but it's beyond the throning royalty. It's, there's other types of banksters as well besides just the old money or the old banksters. So, but it kind of alludes to, hey, this is nonviolent. I'm not saying kill them, right? We want to get them off of the throne. And they're not elected and they're definitely not. They're operating in the shower, in the shadows and get them off the throne, I guess. There you go.

And with a certain amount of billions in your back pocket, it becomes generational, right? It comes a neo-aristocracy. Yeah. 100%. 100%. I got you. I'm with you.

I liked the website when I first saw it. Right after I built Future Danger, I checked out all kinds of podcasts out there that might want to learn what I made. Get it out there. Put it out there. Get people listening and watch and looking.

And the original Patriot Power are the Solo Act. We've been the breaker of banksters. Talking about his website, D-thrown the Banksters, was one of many. I Am Liberty with James Walton was another.

And here we are now. I'm prepping broadcasting network. Bring it to you, August of 2026. watching the poly crisis unfold. I wouldn't say it's time to start executing more, shall we say, intensive, preparatory branches and sequels of your plan. But the environment's tight.

You can get that way real fast. Evacuations, bugging in, bugging out, making moves financially, and just getting batting down and, you know, just survive what's coming. Definitely the writing's on the world. wall tonight, Ben. Definitely is. We'll be back next Thursday and pretty much every week on Thursdays, 6 p.m. Eastern or thereabouts. And in fact, if we're getting dashboards this, pretty much this intense every single Thursday, we might have to start doing two shows a week into the fall because the fall

traditionally is the most busy time, you know, Labor Day through Thanksgiving at a minimum. If we start going from 40 or 50 articles to 80 plus articles. Plus, I know there's articles we don't even talk about sometimes on our show because it's happened so early in the week, et cetera, et cetera. I guess my point is we're going to be on live every single week and possibly up to twice per week. I think we might have to do that future dance. So we'll keep on, keep documenting and keep looking for solutions too.

Yeah, that's right. God bless our audience. God bless the United States. Thanks for having the show with us, Ben, and the audience. Really appreciate it. We'll be back next week on Patriot Power Hour on the Prepper Broadcasting Network.
