Red Beacon Daily News July 27th.
2026, news to me, folks.
News to me.
Oil prices fall after U.S. Iran pause attacks.
U.S. President Donald Trump ordered a pause in attacks on Iran over the weekend.
Oil prices dropped more than 5% on Monday after the United States and Iran paused attacks for a second straight day following weeks of strikes.
That had to push Brent crude prices to above.
$100 per barrel.
Hey Brent, you're an asshole.
Brent crude futures fell.
$5.70.
By 304 a.m. Eastern Standard Time after briefly slipping under the key support level of $90
earlier in the session.
This is the thing about oil, right?
It doesn't have anything to do with how comfortable you are.
It has to do with guys in rooms deciding how much money.
you're going to spend.
You know, the Red Beacon speaks to rebellion.
And it speaks to rebellion against these very things, right?
It speaks to rebellion against any time there are large groups of people in a room making decisions for you that you didn't elect.
This is tyranny.
Right?
This is something that must be rebelled against.
And Big Oil has its hold on a lot of things.
But I'll tell you, this kind of behavior here
is making me want to install solar and get an electric car.
I'll tell you that.
I love gasoline, man.
I love gas-powered things.
But what are you going to do, right?
What are you going to do?
You've got to become stronger.
You've got to become more self-sufficient.
White House Communications Director Stephen Chung said
on July 26th at U.S. President Donald Trump
had ordered a pause and attacks on Iran.
the weekend, but will, quote, retain all options if Iran continues terrorist activities in the
Strait of Hormuz or against allies. This is where we sit with the war, folks. I'm bored of it,
just as bored of it as you are. I want it to be over, right? I don't know what else to say to you.
It is what it is. Another, again, you didn't vote on the war, right? You couldn't vote on the war.
Your representatives never got a chance to vote on the war because there was no vote on the war.
but now there's a war.
Now there's a war that's going to cost us trillions, right?
The new spending bill, trillions of dollars, the NDAA.
Beware, that's all.
What do you say?
Beware of the government, the military industrial complex, right?
Harry Truman, beware of the military industrial complex.
What is the military industrial complex?
Really what he was getting at, he was seeing,
The emergence of a complex.
Now we have numerous complex eye all over the United States, right?
We have multiple complex to be worried about.
And what we're going to talk about next is just another example of that.
Your AI assistant here.
We've got a bit of a good news situation.
A bunch of guys in a bunch of rooms making decisions with,
artificial intelligence, right?
AI is short.
Today what we're going to do, today what we're going to do rather than one story is we're going to do a collection of headlines that will give you an overview and an idea of just how much AI has made it into your life and your personal information and you have no idea and you had no say in it whatsoever.
We're rapidly approaching a moment in time that's cost me a lot of money, which is the rapid disconnection from all these digital things.
we're going to have to get on tour in order to keep this sort of me and you talking,
me talking at you thing going.
Meta Microsoft, Nvidia, IBM, and others back, Openweight AI.
Now, here's the thing.
I don't know what open weight AI is.
But meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and IBM know, and they're backing it.
Do they care what it's going to do to you?
Do they know what it's going to do to you?
Do you know what it's going to do to you?
Hmm.
No.
But don't worry because OpenAI pushes chat GPT into patient health records.
Wait what?
Chat GPT into patient health records.
I thought we couldn't even ask questions about patient health.
I thought patient health records were completely and totally off limits.
What happened to that?
Invidia bets physical AI can solve healthcare robotics data problem.
Open AI presence sells enterprise AI AI AI.
agents with engineers attached.
The world of AI, folks.
There's no more...
There's no more it's coming.
There's no more it might.
There's no more it will, or it is.
Where we are now is it is.
Right?
Brister Myers and Squibb buys
Nvidia AI system for drug discovery.
We talked about that.
Chinese open-weight models of AI are cheap.
This is very dangerous for our economy.
Right?
You flood the market with cheap AI, open weight, cheap AI models.
And all of a sudden businesses go, well, what do we do in waiting on meta?
What are we doing waiting on the trillion, multi-trillion dollar investment that is meta to come to fruition?
When we can get our, you know, customer service reps from Shenzhen.
And, you know, how much different is it?
US in Japan announced sweeping AI and tech collaboration.
Did you know about that?
Did you vote about that?
Did a representative bring that up at all?
Did anybody talk about that with you?
UK and Canada signed AI compute agreement.
Now, here's my problem with UK and Canada AI compute agreement.
Canada's in bed with China as we speak.
Something tells me that's not going to go over well.
But of course, artificial intelligence is double-edged, folks.
Do you know what I mean?
The folks at be-prepared Solutions.co are what I want to talk about
on the prepper tech side of things today.
I met with these guys last week.
I met with them again early Friday morning.
Early, 6 a.m.
We're on the phone talking.
And, you know, what?
Now, these guys are, I just want to preface this with the fact that there's a lot of AI stuff coming out,
a lot of technology coming out in the prepper world.
That's literally why I decided to do this segment on Red Beacon Daily News.
Because there's a lot of prepper tech out there.
What's good, what's not good, what works, what don't work.
Sometimes I just tell you what it is and have no plans of telling you whether or not it's good or not.
You do the homework, right?
I don't got to make every decision for you, do I?
But what I will tell you is I've worked with this right here.
You go to be prepared solutions.com.
They gave the Atrepit commander a free key so I could get in there and play around.
And the alert system and the be warned system is really something.
It really is.
I mean, it is something.
You get yourself in a situation where things are going down.
You know what I mean?
Like, if things are going down, civil unrest in the area,
I would have loved to have the Be Aware dashboard back in 2020 during the riots.
But basically what I'm looking at right now, and I'll show you guys this in a video, just not today.
What I'm looking at right now is a dashboard of my area where I live.
And it culminates everything that's going on.
Who's out of power?
We had some big storms last night.
Who's out of power?
Where are the power outages?
How's the river doing?
There's some breaking news that scrolls down at the bottom, local only, right?
Multi-vehicle crash blocks I-95 North Patrick Henry
Motorcyclist killed in two-vehicle crash
There's some information about
What are these guys?
Customers affected for, they'll tell you where the power outages, who's affected?
110 customers in the city are affected.
We got information about small creeks and small bodies of water
Tocaho Creek at River Road, 7.5 feet, right?
We drill down on that.
It tells you, they don't have a gauge for flooding, but it lets you know, right?
Now, the James River has a gauge for flooding, and it tells us exactly where that is.
High hazard, right?
Winston Lake Dam, high hazard.
It's really great.
Down here in the bottom left-hand corner, it tells us about how many outages there are total in the area
and how many people are affected.
So, you know, this is the next level of threat alert.
That's what it is.
You know, I used to run Alerts USA on my old phone years and years ago
before I got tired of being told about, you know,
people getting shot up in Bahrain like I cared.
You know what I mean?
It's terrible, but, you know, what am I going to do?
What are you going to buy another AR-15?
Because when people got shot up in Bahrain?
So the thing about this is
It takes the threat alert concept
And puts it, you know
It just focuses in on your area
Gives you all that's relevant to you
There's something about it, man
It's a good thing
It's really amazing
It's really amazing
I'd recommend you try it
Be Prepared Solutions.com
And they do much more than that
I mean they do plans, they do kits
They do consulting
They do a lot of cool stuff
the plans are amazing
if you're
here's the deal
here's the real deal with the plans
if you're willing to put your information
into their system
which is a big ask for preppers like us
if you're willing to put your information
into their system they will build you an awesome plan
it's very thoughtful
it's not going to be perfect
you're going to have to tweak it
because it's your plan not you know
not theirs so you're going to have to tweak it
but at the same time
It's something, man.
You know, we don't want to think about this stuff.
There's a lot of people out there don't want to think about this stuff.
I almost look at these.
I almost look at the tool like Be Prepared Solutions.
And I didn't talk to them about this because I didn't think about it until now.
As a place that should sell like gift cards.
You know what I mean?
Some gift cards.
Because it's a gift.
This is a gift you can give to someone who doesn't.
doesn't care any about preparedness, but wants to be prepared, but you know they're not going to do it, right?
You say, look, go to Be Prepared Solutions.com, put in your information.
They'll tell you how much food you need, water, pets, family, medical, you know, backup, what things to back up, all that kind of stuff.
It'll give you a whole shebang.
And I think there's a certain segment of the population folks that are just like, and I've said this for a long time.
They're just like, tell me what to do.
I don't want to figure it out.
I'm not excited about it.
I don't want to figure it out.
Just tell me what to do, and I'll do it.
And those people might be,
they might be waiting for a gift from be preparedsolutions.co.
All right.
So that's our prep or tech segment for the day.
I'm over at red beaconmedia.com.
I'd highly recommend you come over to red beaconmedia.com.
What we got over here today,
I'm going to have to change the movie soon.
So you know, the homepage has a...
We're Rebellion X Renaissance,
but the homepage also has a music X movies.
It has a poem from some...
One of the greats is always up on the homepage.
You can go read.
And then there's some great music you probably never heard.
And a movie that I think is a great movie to watch.
And again, it's about zooming out from the social media world.
It's about zooming out from the digital world.
It's about zooming out and getting back to like...
and all that is life, man.
Life is a big, wide thing.
You know, you get into this mindset that everything sucks and everything's bad because you get in a silo.
You get in this little stuck in the house isolation brain.
Or to work, from work, to home, from home to work, sort of merry-go-round where everything sucks and is stale and is stagnant and I need more money.
And then you read The Rodera, or the Rodora.
by Ralph Waldo Emerson, and you're reminded,
there's a big wide world out there, man.
You know what I mean?
It's way bigger than your bank account,
or lack thereof.
In May, when sea winds pierced our solitudes,
I found the fresh Rhodora in the woods,
spreading its leafless blooms in the dang nook
to please the desert and the sluggish brook.
The purple petals fallen in the pool
made the black water with their beauty gay.
Here might the redbirds come, his plumes to cool,
and court the flower that cheapens his array.
Rodora, if the sages ask thee why,
this charm is wasted on the earth and sky.
Tell them, dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,
then beauty is its own excuse for being.
Ah? What a line.
Tell them, dear,
if eyes were made for seeing, then beauty is its own excuse for being.
Why thou wert there, O rival of the rose?
I never thought to ask. I never knew.
But in my simple ignorance suppose, the self-same power that brought me there brought you.
That is the Rodora by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
A normal guy.
A normal guy who decided he was going to write some poems.
and sprung about the great American Renaissance
at a time when we were becoming what we were becoming
just like we are now.
Right?
Just an ordinary guy like you or a gal like you
who decided to put pen to paper
and write about the things that truly moved him.
We're in danger of slipping under this digitized narcotization
or little things like the Rodora flower
will no longer move us.
We'll never see them because we'll be forever trapped inside.
Metaphorically and, you know, truly.
I hope you enjoyed Red Beacon Daily News today, folks.
Heed the warnings.
This is about rebellion.
This is about Renaissance.
This is about humanity.
And I look forward to another big week with the Red Beacon.
