Good morning and welcome to Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg and it is the eighteenth day of November twenty twenty five. Welcome to our show today. So today we've got a nine o'clock John Tater and then at ten o'clock Sean Starry. I love these guys. They're fantastic and always learn so much. Morning, John. How are you doing? I'm good. I'm good. Good. I wanted to tell everybody that at least half the Internet is down right now. I'm going to go over here a minute and we're going to I want to show everybody. this down detector. Let me see Verizon problems. Hang on a minute. All right. Let me get back to center here and we'll see if we can get the show people what they can do. If they, if they're, if any of the providers are down or if your connectivity is down, you can always go down to it. As long as they're up, they weren't up for a little bit there this morning, which is kind of interesting. All right, what happened? Here we go. It's taking its own sweet time. And we can go here in the morning and find out who is having problems or where the problems are. So all of these, look at all the providers that are down. So when Cloudflare is down, everything is down. But look at what happened this morning. OpenAI, Grindr, which is probably not a bad thing. Spotify, all of them. Look, all of them is down. So the whole internet has a glitch going on right now. Isn't that interesting? Except for, I don't know how we're doing it, but I want to see if we get down to YouTube. But for some reason, we're still up and running. Amazon, Canvas. Oh, there's Grok. So Grok is still kind of sort of up, but the whole internet's having a problem right now. which I think is pretty interesting. Well, I'll kind of watch this. I'm going to keep it, keep it up and see what's happening. Some of the problems are going down. So you never know. We may be able to start up Twitter here or X. I can't stop calling it Twitter and I don't know why, but as always, your most, your most stable, your most stable channel for Brandenburg news network is always going to be being on dot or Brandenburg news network.com. That is the, That is the most stable. So anyhow, what are we going to talk about today? And you know what? If anybody is out there listening right now, go ahead and tell them that we are, in fact, up and running. And we're going to keep going. Go to brandbergnewsnetwork.com or our Rumble channel. So anyhow, what are we talking about today, sir? Well, we've got to kind of talk a little bit about everything, including your – I'm going to – Squeak in a little bit on Sean Starr's ideas about creeping commies. So we can, I mean, we really need to talk about the illegal aliens at this moment because there's a lot of crap going on on the internet. There's a lot of people, a lot of cities. And I just read a little article about Charlevoix, I think, in Michigan. where the school system is down a lot of students because a lot of them are probably alien. And they've arrested a whole bunch of aliens, illegal aliens. And therefore, the school system has lost a lot of its students. And so the mayor is concerned. Well, if they're all illegal, they need to be gone. And so we talked about this yesterday, that there's a lot of the school systems that have ghost students. It was just like the ghost voters. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. There are ghost students. Military was military was great for that in the seventies and eighties. They were paying ghost the ghost soldiers. And guess who was collected? And in fact, in the unit that I was at, the uh the uh person involved in finance was collecting the checks the ghost checks so he's living a pretty good life but he got caught when was that oh that was uh in the late eighties i think approximately so the military was doing it long time ago and now it seems like it's just perpetuated into the public sphere. But there were a lot of soldiers out there. Now we're having problems. Huh? Now we're having problems. I'm watching us go up. I said now we're having problems. I'm watching us go on and off. The sound is. So maybe YouTube is going to be next to go down or stream to listen. This is not good. So let's take a look at that map here, see where we've got a problem here with them. This is part of the blackouts that they've been promising. They've been promising a blackout of the Internet and the cell systems and so on and so forth. for some time already. And it's obviously the deep state that wants to keep all of the information that's coming out about them covered up. So nobody knows about it. So nobody hears about it. So they think that all of these deep state people that are in the system will be protected because nobody knows about it. You know, Swalwell is the lady. Sean said that he's Swalwell is the latest to be... What's that, John? Can you hear me? Repeat what you said, because there's a little delay there. You said about Swalwell. Swalwell has been pinched now for fraudulent... mortgages he's got um and actually he's got a claim that he lives in california where he doesn't live in california or at least his residence isn't in california and he can't be in congress if he's not representing the state that he's living in so he's being pinched along with uh a handful of others that we we all already know about the others So this stuff has been going on for some time. And evidently, it's the deep state that has gone and made a deal with these guys. Oh, we don't care where you live. You can live anywhere you want. We'll just put you in California and say you live in California and then you can represent California. You know, the nonsense that's been going on. But if you and I get caught. doing a mortgage fraud, we'd be in jail for the next day. I mean, they would be after us. We'd be arrested. But these people are still out there. They're still in Congress. They're still making decisions on laws. Talk about a corrupt government and a corrupt legal system that we have and the corrupt judges that put up with this that allow this to go on. This is a pretty sad situation. But it's gotten cleaned up, but it's just going to take time. But anyway, let's get back to the illegal aliens. Illegal aliens that come in illegally and they are criminals, they do not get due process. They're not Americans. They're illegal aliens. There's no such thing as due process for illegal aliens that break the law to get into this country illegally. So this nonsense of the Democrats jumping up and down and saying, oh, they haven't had their due process and they can't be shipped out without their due process is a load of baloney. They can't get due process because they're not American citizens, number one. and number two they came in illegally so they broke the law to begin with so this this whole thing about the constitution um does not apply to them uh what about mandani you know we talk about him and we know that he's a socialist actually uh socialist communist whatever you want to call him i think socialism and communism are pretty close to the same thing But he is violating article four, section four of the constitution. If he pulls any of this crap and did he swear an oath to the constitution? I doubt it, but most, how can you, how could you take office without swearing an oath to the constitution? Yeah. Or is he a fake? because he didn't swear an oath to the constitution if he didn't do that he didn't fulfill the requirements for his office number one is that he's sworn to the constitution number two is that he's trying to bring in socialism into new york but he can't because the constitution says article four section four that we are guaranteed a republican form of government So he's in conflict with the law right off the bat. If he didn't swear an oath, then he's fake, that he doesn't exist. If he did swear an oath, then he's violating his oath and he needs to go to jail for that. So either way, he's cooked. I don't know. When you look at the entirety of who's sitting in the seats, including the judges and such, the whole system is an illusion. Yes, it's fake. And that's dependent on whether people wake up and see it, quite honestly. People need to wake up and see that we're living in an illusion, that they have literally overlaid pretended legislation onto what the country is supposed to look like. That's right. That's right. They're violating their only oath of office. Swalwell, Schumer, all of the Democrats, as far as I'm concerned, ninety percent of the Democrats out there are creating are violating their oath of office by pushing what they're pushing in this country. And by violating your oath of office, I mean, if there is no um important thing in your life like the oath of office that's why you take that oath is that you swear that you're going to do what the constitution says you're going to do and then they turn around and they violate it and they say well we're not going to pay any attention to that or or i've never read it and therefore i'm leading ignorant these people need to be arrested and put in jail and with the last election we've had a lot of people out there that have been violating their oath of office right off the bat by the things that they have been standing on and the issues that they have been talking about to begin with. And they're not even in office yet. And some of them that will get in office, maybe will flip the switch and follow the Republic and follow their oath. But most of the time, they will violate their oath of office. They don't know what their oath is because they never read the Constitution. They don't know what the Constitution states and why they're in that office to begin with. So this is a big problem that we have. The Democrats are supporting illegals. They're supporting sanctuary cities. And we're also talking about the rhinos. They're violating federal law. which that in itself should put them in jail i mean this should be a slam dunk they should be arrested the problem is that we have judges on the bench that have been violating their oath of office because they swear a second oath to the bar and they're supporting the bar which is supporting the illegal system which we live under and so that whole mess that we're living in has to be cleaned up. We have to get rid of the judges that are out there. And we have to then bring the country back to where it's supposed to be by the Constitution. If you violate your oath of office, you're done. You should be kicked out immediately. There shouldn't be a referendum or not a referendum, but a recall or any of that stuff. You should just be, you're fake. There's got to be a way to remove people quicker than what we have right now when they do violate. Because it just seems like everything takes so long. What's the quickest way to remove somebody who's violated their oath? Norton v. Shelby County. An unconstitutional act is not a law. It offers no... i got to get the get the exact wording because i i don't remember the exact wording but i'll pull it up and and i'll read it exactly how it's how it's stated because we need to we need to understand that that phrase is so critical and so important that the government especially president trump and i think president trump knows about it but He's trying to play everything by the rule of law. And this is the rule of law. Actually, Norton versus Shelby County is the rule of law by the Supreme Court. So there's no other way out of that by saying that they have to get a trial and they have to be recalled. No, no, that's not what Norton versus Shelby County stands for. And that's why that case is so critical. And that's why so many people do not want to, and especially the attorneys, do not want to talk about it, because it will destroy the whole bar system and turn this country almost overnight into a Republican form of government. Are the people ready for it? I don't know. That's another question that I don't have an answer for. I think everybody's learning. I mean, the thing about it is, is that, you know, we all learn at a different time, different time and different rate. People are starting to wake up to things, but, you know, people are still learning. And there's a lot of people that are still in denial on what's really gone on. I think that's probably one of the biggest things right now. I just, I just found out Twitter's back up and running right now or X. And so I'm going to, see if I can post this so we can get people to know that we're here today. Okay, Martin v. Shelby County, a Supreme Court decision by nine judges saying yes and no judges saying no. So it's a nine-zero decision. It is as powerful as the Constitution. Actually, it's part of the Constitution. And it says an unconstitutional act is not a law. So if you violate your oath of office, you are creating an unconstitutional act right off the bat. If you lie to the public, if you violate Article IV, Section IV, you are creating an unconstitutional act. It is not a law. It confers no rights. It imposes no duties. It affords no protection. it creates no office it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed that's a very very powerful statement and the only way that this constitution can be changed or adjusted is if it no longer exists or if we've been revolutionized And that means we have removed the Constitution as the supreme law of the land, which hasn't happened. It is still the supreme law of the land. And everything is the Supreme Court still based on the Constitution. And most of the people that swear an oath to the Constitution in order to get into that office, have created an unconstitutional act if they violate that oath of office. So it is as clear as can be. Trump was good in his, uh, movie or in his, uh, television broadcast. What was the name of that broadcast where he, yeah, you're fired. Well, that's all he has to do is you're fired. You're fired. I used to love that show. I thought that was a fun show to watch. Well, that's what he should be doing. I know he would raise a lot of anger and frustration, and people would say he's a dictator. No, he's not. He's following the law. The law is. An unconstitutional act is not a law. If you violated the law, if you violated the Constitution, You violated your oath of office, you're out of business. I mean, that goes to the California governor, Newscum, and the whole group of them. And now New York is going to be facing that with Mondani if he stretches beyond the Constitution. An unconstitutional act is not a law. You're fired. And, of course, that's what he should be doing, and he probably will eventually when he gets control of the House and the Senate at the midterms. Well, guess what? BNN was up on Twitter for just a minute, and now it's back down again. They probably don't want to hear what we're saying. No, I think this is like the whole of X is down. So it was up for a few minutes, and now it's all down. So we'll see what happens here. This is wild. That's all right. Well, we'll keep it. Well, I'll keep watching it. Maybe it'll come back, come back to us again. So I'm going to try not to be distracted, but it's not working for me right now. I'm trying to get it going. So, you know, the AI system out there is listening on to us constantly. And if we say things that it doesn't like, it can do things like shut down the system. Well, I think this is the whole, it's not just my ex, it's all of ex. Like one third of the entire internet is down. I understand. Do you ever think about Memdami? One of the things that I wonder about him is he's so cartoon-esque. He's like a cartoon character. Because it's almost unbelievable that a person could crawl out from under a rock and be that way. I just can't come to terms with it. So I have to wonder if he's an actor trying to get people... upset about things enough to get in the game and do things. Maybe he's working on the side of the White Hats. Who knows? I wonder if there's a lot of actors that are trying to get those sheeple that are not awake, if they're trying to wake people up a little bit. I hope that's the case. It could very well be that, although Bill Clinton crawled from under a rock and became president. Yeah, Little Rock. Yeah, well, Little Rock, Big Rock. It doesn't matter. And Hillary, too. You've got to wonder about that guy. I always wonder about, say, why is it that people go to being very, very evil? What happened in their life? Are people born that way? Or what is it that will make people snap and choose the wrong thing? I don't know how to answer that, but it's just curious. I think a lot of it has to do with money, wealth, and power. Yeah, Leb said, what do you think about Fetterman? Yeah, that's another one. Yeah, he's another flip-flopper. Who knows? I'm not sure about Fetterman. You ever see the comparison photos of him? Have you ever seen the comparison photos of Fetterman? There's like eight Fettermans out there, different-looking guys. It's kind of humorous, actually. So could be more than one. Yeah. So anyhow, let's go back to Norton versus Shelby County again and go over that again, because I think that I think that that goes back to the whole process of nullification. Now, I personally think that all the candidates suck. And I was thinking about doing a show on it that says all the candidates suck. Change my mind, because I think they all suck. Absolutely suck. But kind of kind of wondering. Remember what Ben Franklin said. They don't understand how to go back to scratch and fix this thing from a structural point of view. You've got to go to nullification. And if anybody's not talking nullification, I'm literally done with them at that moment in time because you have to have nullification in order for the system to work. I really believe that. Partially true. I agree. Well, we got to get rid of it. That's what Norton versus Shelby County does is that that's all about nullification. It's about just like being done. But nullification basically talks about jury duties, juries and juries and in courts and where the courts can nullify the law and nullify the judge. That's basically where we the people can use it appropriately. Politicians don't really need the word nullification because it's an unconstitutional act that if it's an unconstitutional act, it's not a law. And if you're pushing as a public functionary, an unconstitutional act, you are violating your oath of office. And if you violate your oath of office, why are you there? Because you violated the most sacred thing on the planet that you had to do in order to get into that office. Getting voted in is one thing, but if you can't say the oath of office and you can't be convicted to the oath of office, then who are you? Then what are you? Then you're on nothing. Well, I kind of think that like all the case law that we have on the books right now, that we need to go back and only have the cases standing that are in the constitutional courts and let those those stand. But there's got to be wipe everything else off the books. That would be the easiest thing to do. And then go to those those decisions, Supreme Court decisions and see if they're constitutionally compliant or not. And if they're not gone, nullified, erased like they never existed. Check this out. This is kind of interesting. This came up this morning. MAGA doesn't understand how Republicans operate. I thought this was a really good article. on how they're dividing the United States up. Because this is the other thing that they're really involved in, is trying to get all of us who should be standing with the Constitution, the Republic, and honestly what President Trump stated that he was trying to do. And what I think he's trying to do is get people to wake up and actually understand what's going on with the constitution so we can self-govern because if we if we can't if we don't even know what it means to self-govern what it means to standing with the republic how can we possibly self-govern so you know you've got all these clowns out there like memdami and such who are pushing the limits of even people that are asleep should be able to look at that and say this is wrong this is absolutely wrong but I thought this was interesting. For the better part of this year, I've been noticing publicly on Twitter and all these pages how the financial interests of the global political establishment, elite, and a host of affiliated technocrats, formerly outlined as the Sea Island Group, have been working on Operation Divide Mega. That operation is to separate President Trump from his support base. President Trump has been navigating this dynamic sometimes failing, not surprisingly, given the scope of the issue, yet keeping his focus on the larger objective, the ultimate solutions approach he is known for. Israel, to it, many people have criticized President Trump for being too close to Israeli interests, as if those voices do not understand the scale of institutional interest towards maintaining foreign influence in U.S. politics. Perhaps many don't. Example, if Ron DeSantis said, right now, we would be talking about forwarding operating U.S. bases in Iran. Perhaps people criticized President Trump for attending the Kennesaw legislative session in Israel, yet did not notice that totally Trumpian move of calling out Maryam Adelson during those same remarks. In essence, President Trump candidly spotlit the very nature of the thing that people are upset about. And I think this is really interesting, because if we're involved in things, we've got to tell the truth. I do that when I go to, say, like Mar-a-Lago or any other place I go, because things are not always exactly as they appear. And you've got to be able to get into these infiltrated Everything's infiltrated. I don't care what you're talking about. Now, there's always going to be somebody that's going to show up to infiltrate. You've got to have people on the ground that have some discernment so that you can say, wait a minute, hold the phone. This isn't exactly what it appears to be, even in the things we see that are good. And I thought this was interesting. On the H-B visas, nobody wants to see H-B visa abuse. Yet do we accept the scale and scope of the tech sector exploiting or using this system? Have we forgotten Elon Musk's December, or those of Vivek Ramaswamy, which highlighted the tech red line position? Do we understand the tenuous nature of the coalition candidate Trump put together to defeat the professional uniparty, which included the same very influential tech leaders as lukewarm allies to MAGA. Big tech is broader, is broader, adverse, institutionally minded globalists, i.e. in traditionally comfortable relation with the Democrats. And so I think this is really interesting because this guy on the conservative tree house highlights all of these areas where president Trump has been working through. And I think this is interesting. Many people are upset about President Trump having working dinners with bankers and members of high finance. Yet, if President Trump collapsed the U.S. dollar, we'd never hear the end of it, nor survive as a prospering nation through the ramifications of it. President Trump is trying to build a strong domestic economy for the U.S. while still maintaining the dollar as the best alternative for global investment and trade currency. So to all the people out there that are just sitting out there whining and sobbing about things, things are always more complicated than what they appear. And I think that, you know, I'm sure somebody could crash the entire system and watch it devolve into chaos. But if we can do a controlled demolition, it's probably the best plan. I agree. the part of the whole system comes out in in in the form of a military operation i agree in the middle of uh yes it is it is a spiritual operation too it is a spiritual battle between the evil and the good but it is conducted as a military operation We don't tell the enemy exactly what's going on. We make the allies where we can, and we keep the enemy close enough so we know what they're doing. This is a typical military strategy, and Trump is using it pretty well, as far as I'm concerned. I think so, too. He's got his act together. He knows what's going on. I know he's not the only one. that's doing this, and it's not his brainchild completely. He's got a lot of people, a lot of staffers that are working with him. He's got his force behind him, and he's got the people, the mega people. But you're right, ever since Obama got on board, it's been divide, divide, divide, divide the blacks against the whites, divide the Chinese against the Americans, divide the The gays against the trans, the trans against the people that keep the country in a bunch of little groups so we can't get together and do anything. And that's exactly what's been going on. I have a friend that owned a restaurant and she kept it open. She happens to be a lesbian and she kept the restaurant open all the way through COVID. Well, when she started really deciding that she really liked President Trump and flying the American flag rather than the rainbow flag, for gay pride flag and such. She wasn't gay enough for them. So they actually, there was a group that attacked her because now she wasn't gay enough for the rest of the gay community in the area. And they literally destroyed her. They destroyed her business for not being exclusive, which I think is absolutely horrible. It's absolutely horrible. And that kind of stuff has to stop. Happens in all the communities. If you're a Christian, there's always somebody that you're not Christian enough. Really? Who died made you God. You know, it's like, I love this whole judgment thing and having a bar out there on how people live their lives or what they do and say. And it's really too bad. So people that are mega, oh, they're not mega enough, you know, or any of this. Come on, guys. We got it. We got to. We got to work together. You know, I'm going to do a Biden thing. Come on, man. You know, maybe maybe the dumb people listen to me if I speak their language. It is important that we as a country, as a as a people decide on which direction we want to go. Do we want to be a country? a ruled country where we have dictators ruling our way of life, where we have people like Mandani pulling in socialism, taking money from everybody to pay for those people that aren't doing anything. Is that what we want? Or do we want a country where we can pick ourselves up by our bootstraps, make something out of our life, and continue moving forward. Regardless of what your thought process is, whether you're gay or lesbian or black or white or pink or orange, it doesn't matter because we were once upon a time the melting pot. Remember when you came to America from a foreign country, you came to America because America was the place where you could be yourself, where you could rule yourself. self-governance, freedom and liberty. And we have given it up to a lot of these tin pot dictators that are in office right now. One in particular is Whitmer and the Three Horse of Babylon or Three Horse of Lansing over there. Those three are totally in violation of the first of Norton versus Shelby County, and total violation of the Constitution. They have done things. Whitmer has done things with the COVID business. She herself has been violating laws and going out of the state of Michigan and making deals with foreign countries, which she has no authority to do. And we have allowed it. We have allowed it. We voted her in office twice, not knowing the corrupt person that she is or knowing the corrupt person she is. We still voted her in. And obviously, we're talking about the elections being rigged, and that's how she probably got in because it was rigged. But these are the processes that we, the American people, need to say, no, we're not going to do this anymore. We are going to stand together as Americans. Whether you want to call yourself mega or not, you are still an American and you are still to support the Constitution and the rights and privileges of everybody in this country. And as long as I don't interfere with your rights and privileges, you have no right to interfere with my rights and privileges. And you remember what Ben Franklin said. Ben Franklin said to the woman who said, what kind of country did you give us? He said, we're going to give you a republic if you could keep it, madam. And the kind of people that are going to be put in office are beggars and thieves and self-centered men. But we're going to bind them with the chains of the Constitution. Well, we have let those chains, links break. and allow the Constitution to be flapping about in the breeze and not paying attention to it. We got to go back to the original floor plan of this country, the Constitution, and support the movement to bring it back and bring the Constitution back into power again, life and power again, which it has. But it's being fractured here and there by groups of people. I've got a question for you. OK, so since we know that the nineteen sixty three constitution was illegally or unlawfully installed. Yes. OK, by one tenth of one percent, correct? Correct. OK. So when when people think about how few people are actually making the decisions in the United States, this should be sobering. Now, my question is, is how do when you know that it was unconstitutionally installed, how what is the process for getting rid of it and going back to. the original intention, the original Constitution or the last version that was lawfully installed, which is nineteen oh eight, I believe. Well, there's a couple of ways the Constitution is coming up. Michigan Constitution is coming up for review, I think, next year. I'm terrified by that because we don't have we don't have people there that are having that problem to preserve. So how do you get rid of a constitution that's in power at the moment when you have an illegal judicial system in power? And legislature. The whole legislature needs to go too. A whole group of them. But it's got to go to the judicial system where we can file a lawsuit against it and have it heard. And we haven't had that process happen because we have judges that won't listen to it. I have a judge that won't listen to my case in the federal courts. He's saying, hey, you know, these judges have absolute immunity, which they do not. And he's trying to play that card. And it's going to have to go to the Supreme Court, I'm pretty sure, because that Judge Berg is is acting as a criminal right now he's not following the constitution he's not following the uh supreme court decisions he's making his stuff up on the fly as he goes along because somebody paid him off because somebody's got something over him and they're blackmailing him because he doesn't understand the constitution never read it has no idea what it says there's a whole bunch of reasons why he's behaving the way he's behaving but Eventually, he's going to lose. Eventually, the Constitution is going to take over and he's going to be booted. But until that time, that's a battle I'm fighting and as many other people are fighting in courts because the judges are corrupt themselves. Again, paid off or compromised. I'm not sure which one it is. I can't tell that. I can't tell that exactly. That's my wife calling. She's coming in from, from the side. So I suspect she's telling me she's in the car, but I'm not, I can't answer the phone now. You got a beautiful wife. I think so cool that you guys got married this summer and I'm still happy for you guys. Yeah, it's been wonderful. Susie is a doll. Susie is an absolute doll. What a, what a wonderful, wonderful woman you chose. Well, it took a while, but yeah. So who took the longest, you or her, to say yes? I don't think either of us had the yes or the no part about it. Okay. It was a both of you thing then. It was a decision that we were just going to do it at a particular time. And that's the way that happened. We spent a lot of time together. And I think that's important to do, to find out, you know, can I tolerate your this or your that? Can you tolerate my this or my that? Is that going to be a problem? Is that not going to be a problem? So all of those things kind of worked themselves out. And we found that it was a good thing. It's so cool, it's so cool. Okay, back to what we were talking about, the Constitution. So the best way, let's go back, and the short list is? The short list is, I think, what Trump is doing right now with MEGA, getting rid of the deep staters. putting light on them because people don't know about Swalwell, who he is. I mean, I've heard his name lots of times and I know he doesn't follow the law and he does that kind of thing. But I didn't know that on record, on a document, on a federal document, he lied. And if he was capable of doing that where it's public, on a document, then he's culpable to do just about anything. And he's not the only one. I mean, we know the list of people that have violated their mortgage agreements for financial benefit and got away with it for some time. Well, that time has run out. Those people need to be in prison permanently. Gone. Done. And maybe that'll wake up those handful in there that are still in there that said, oh my God, I did something wrong. Maybe I ought to exit out of here before they come after me. This is the problem that we have with our country. We have allowed this kind of crap to go on for a long time, going all the way back to, I mean, way back when, back to the JFK assassination In fact, probably before that, but the JFK assassination was the main cornerstone in our country that if they could assassinate a president and get away with it, then they can just do about anything. That's what happened. So that, that whole thought was really interesting is when you look at the, at what happened with JFK and then Reagan and, uh, the presidents that have been, that have been shot. I think what's kind of amazing is how now I heard at one time that they didn't know how to keep people alive back then, but because we do have some surveillance, we actually do have the ability, um, to keep people alive. And, uh, I think that's, you know, in office, which I think is pretty significant, quite honestly. And I don't know, I would very much like to see some justice for what happened to President Trump, President Reagan, and certainly President Kennedy, because I think they were trying to out the deep state. But this is kind of interesting. So I brought this, this is a legislature, Michigan's constitution. We've got And then we have when it was ratified in nineteen oh eight and eighteen fifty eighteen thirty five historical document. So I think that's really interesting. Greg, Greg, that's on my show. Greg Martini on Wednesday. He did this. He's done a spreadsheet of all the constitutions in the United States as we have fifty one constitutions. We have the national or the federal and then we have all the state constitutions. And he compares what changes in each in each article. and section to the previous one. It's brilliant. He is a brilliant person. I love Greg. What it did is it took our power as people away from us, chipped away from us each time. And the Michigan Constitution of sixty three took a lot of power away from us. Which one? A lot of power into the hands of government. which one would you go back to the thirty five or or, you know, if you had to go back to the changes that were made, which are actually unconstitutional changes, because I haven't studied all of them in depth like I'm sure you have. And I know Greg has. Well, I would say the nineteen oh eight constitution is probably where we should go back to and then we could expand from there. The sixty three constitution is so the whole purpose of the constitution was to govern government, not the people. And in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, in this particular, Am I correct? Well, I think it's more than a contract. I think it is the blueprint or the diagram by which government can operate. In other words, in order to be in the government and be functional as a government public functionary, You need to follow the rules. These are these are what are laid down for you. They're not laid down for me. They're laid down for you to follow. And if you don't follow these rules, then it's, you know, it's like building a bicycle. and you have a map to how to build that bicycle a direction and if you forget to put two or two nuts or two screws in uh that were critical then your bike is going to fall apart well that's basically what the constitution is it is a diagram it is the direction uh by which the the government operates that's all it's not the direction by which we operate it's the direction by which they operate And that's why it was originally set up as the United States Constitution. And all constitutions of every state had to follow the basic premise of the federal constitution. And if they didn't, then they could not, as a people, vote and become part of the republic, part of one of the states of the United States. because they did not follow it, fall in line with the federal constitution and the directive of the federal constitution. But but over time, we have allowed as people allowed this kind of nonsense to go on. And we know that when they push this constitution, I think it went to three or four votes before three or four votes before it finally got accepted by one ten to one percent of the public and that that in itself is in violation of the law because if you've got to amend the constitution it should take two-thirds of the house of representatives or the of the senate and house of representatives to amend that constitution and yet we could bring it on board by one ten to one percent that So it really can't even be voted directly by the people is what you're saying? No, it can't. It can't. That's why we had hired representatives. We put representatives in office. All of these referendums that are part of the sixty three constitution are illegal. They are not how they are not Republican informed. They are a democracy informed. And therefore, they are illegal under the Constitution, under Article IV, Section IV of the Federal Constitution, which says we are guaranteed a Republican form of government, not a democracy. Think about how effective that would be if the local areas actually interfaced with those people they put in office instead of showing up once a year at the voting booth. That's it. That's about most people's involvement out there. There's a lot of people that go to a lot of political events, but I mean, actually working with them on the things, show up to work with the representatives and have it be more of a team approach so that the team works on these things and then the representative goes in and actually addresses them the way the people want. That would be really a novel idea, but that's, I think, the way it's supposed to work, isn't it? It is. I just got a brochure from my representative, and he's telling me all of these good things that he has done. It's a big brochure. He does stuff. in Lansing, but what does he doing in Lansing? And, and the question is, I read some of this stuff and I'm saying he doesn't have any authority to do that to begin with. That's not his job. It's all backwards. Everything is upside down. Exactly. He's not there to try to see how much money he can spread around in the public, uh, our money. He's there to see that the system operates properly and what is local should be local and what is state should be state. And they have they have decided that they can wobble over into the local stuff and wobble into the federal stuff and and flip flop and do whatever they want to do. And that's not the job of voter integrity. We don't have any voter integrity in Michigan. And this this should be in his brochure. He should be talking about how to fix the voting system. It's not that's not his. That's not what he's doing. And that's one of those things that they mentioned that, though, that's like that's like a death blow to their ever being and in able to run again. That's that's a problem. You're right. You notice how few candidates are actually talking about fixing the election systems and what they'll do is they change their mess messaging when they go into different groups just to push their hot buttons. But they have, they have no idea, you know, they have no intention of going in there and fixing it. If they make it that far, it's because they're part of the system. That's right. They are part of the system. Uh, they, he talks in, in, in this particular case, he's talking about, uh, department of housing. Uh, he's talking about, um, um, Meeting with constituents and stockholders about what? Why would he be meeting with these people? What's his purpose? Why is he what's he doing specifically with them? And then he says no budget is perfect. What does that mean? No budget is perfect. so you know this guy he doesn't know what his kind what his job is in the in the republic and and his his whole idea here is to put these brochures out and it sounds really good what he's doing oh uh he's he's funding ten thousand dollars uh continuing no-cost school meals and creating a public safety revenue sharing grant program That's his job. It's all the stuff the government shouldn't be involved in. It's the fluff, yes. And unfortunately, people are voting themselves. They're voting so that they can get more money from the government. They don't realize that they're part of it. When you do that, it's an integrity issue because nothing's for free. Someone has to be doing the work. So that means that you're expecting someone else to pay your way. The more of these programs we cut, I mean, think about it. The more individual discretion people have to spend the money they have on their own. I mean, if taxes were cut to what they were supposed to be, there's like no direct tax, not really on the people. You know, there's the income tax, unconstitutional. Property tax, unconstitutional the way it is. There's no basis for any of this. Think about it if people had the taxing, all the taxes back in their pockets. it and it goes back i guess i got to say this because we're really reaching the end of our broadcast it all goes back to the fake money system set up by the banking cartels it goes back to the fake paper money that we have that they've been printing out of nothing and creating all kinds of inflation to tax us inflation is a tax upon the public because we lose our spending power, because we keep chasing the dollar so we can provide food for our family. And by doing that, we don't have time to deal with the other stuff that's more important, such as government. We allow that to slide by because we think, oh, it's going to handle itself. It's handling us, not handling itself. And so we have to become involved in that process and do what we can as public to shore up and bring forth this government and bring them back under control. And vote no on every single proposal that they bring out for more money. All these bond issues, they should all be voted down. I don't understand how people or why people think they should vote positive for a bond issue because that's just voting a new tax for yourself. And then you complain about the property taxes going up. Well, you're part of that problem. You created that problem. And the public functionaries turn to you and say, hey, that's what you wanted. We gave you what you asked for. So it's like a big circle that you can't hold this Jimmy Wilson responsible because we voted it in. So there you go. Exactly. Yeah, it's really kind of a sad situation, though, that the country had gotten to. And all I can say is I'm really thankful for President Trump. His tariffs are working. I think that people are waking up. And you know what? People don't change unless there's a little bit of pain in their lives. When people are too comfortable, left to their own devices, they usually make really bad choices. I'll never forget, a friend of mine was one of the last ones that was airlifted. out of Vietnam. And that it was it was she remembered, she remembered the story of when they took him on the American destroyers. And it was very interesting. It was very, very interesting. When when her experiences there. And I remember the many discussions I had with her in my twenties, when we would sit and have coffee and such. She said, you know what the problem is, is that when people have too much prosperity and good, she said, they make bad choices every time. She said, when we talked about Russia and the Berlin Wall falling and all that sort of thing, she said, my biggest fear is that people will go to a situation where they're creating their own problems. So people need a little bit of a rub and a struggle in order to have a balanced and healthy life. And I thought that was pretty interesting and pretty telling coming from her. Okay. Yeah. So we need that struggle. No matter what anybody says, we need that struggle. Well, I think... I think that those struggles can be brought on by yourself. I had everything completely fixed for me right now. And the world was beautiful and I had all the money and everything I wanted. I would still find something to do. to create a new situation, a new project, a new hobby, a new this, a new that. That's what people should be doing. That's the creative mind. If you have the time, you can become more creative. It's not that you will sit down and do nothing. Most people, I follow the philosophy of Locke and Aristotle who say that people, given everything that they want, will do the right thing. Not Hegel, who says if people have given everything, they do the wrong thing. They turn evil. I believe people, if they were given the opportunity, would do the right thing and progress beyond where we are at this moment. Some would, some wouldn't. It depends honestly on the internal makeup of people, whether they go to selfishness or whether they go to service. It's the only choice that you have to make. There's no reason to be selfish if you have what you need, right? Well, yeah, but look, there's a lot of people who are like uber rich, and it's like a drug. They just want to take, take, take, take, take. It's a game and a drug to try to beat people and dominate. It's because they've been put in that cycle, and that's all they know. Yeah, I don't know. I think it's an internal lack of integrity and alignment. Well, that comes from the upbringing, right? I don't know. I really don't know. Because, you know, you can look in families and one kid will turn out one way and another kid will turn out another way. And so I'm not always convinced that it has to do with upbringing either. I think that there's something more there and it's more of a spiritual connection and whether people do the right thing or the wrong thing. And in any given situation, you can have you can have two people that were raised in a in a wonderful family and still have somebody go off the rails. Was it the parents fault? Probably not. They made some bad decisions themselves, you know, but which you don't know because you weren't there. But why is it that that people in the same circumstances can turn out radically different? Some people can have money and be a psychopath. Some people can have money and be incredibly generous and take care of the people around them. Some people who are very poor can be very, very generous. Some of the most generous people I know that would give you the shirt off their backs. And some people, all they think of is taking from other people. I think it's a spiritual issue, quite honestly. And I'm very proud to find that. I agree with that spiritual issue part, I do. I follow a philosophy some time ago and learned some things from the Kabbalists. And that's another story we could get into on another day. But it's interesting. Where do you come from when you are born? Are you a spirit in the past and you come into this new world? And what was your spiritual surroundings before you came into this primordial world? What was it like? Who were you? The baggage that you bring forth into this new world. Is it good baggage? Is it bad baggage? What did you do the previous life if you believe in reincarnation? There's a whole lot of different things that we really don't have an answer for because we've been put in this little eggshell and can't get outside of it. They don't want to tell us what's really going on. So I guess that's where we have to figure it out, right? That's right. We have to figure it out. Yeah, I think that's amazing. With all the clutter and such out there, I think we have to look at things on an individual basis and make decisions on whether it's good or bad and really take the time to introspectively check things out and find out. Well, thanks for being on. I'm going to bring Sean on here a minute. You have any last words? Hey, wait a minute. Let me put the banner on. We are going to be at Nicholas this, uh, I have some skills this Wednesday. Uh, Nicholas is in Southfield and you have an opportunity to come and sit with us and talk with us and be part of our group and get some learning about, uh, different things that are going on, uh, how to win your, how to fight the battles in, in court and, and be successful. We have some, uh, History of that. And so this week, Wednesday at seven, between five and nine, we'll be at Nicholas. If you want to know where that is, write me, text me, look at the Magnificent Republic and you'll find out. There you go. So, all right, John, thanks for being on today and we will see you next week, Tuesday, okay? Absolutely. Yep. Take care. Have a great day. You too. Morning, Sean. How you doing? Are you there? Hello, Sean. Well, hang on. You know what? I'm going to go to my media intro here. We're going to play it a minute. I need to get some more coffee anyhow, but I'll be right back in fifty seven seconds. Good morning and welcome to the Second Hour Brandenburg News Network. I am Donna Brandenburg and it is the eighteenth day of November twenty twenty five and I'm waiting for Sean to jump on. I just talked to him a second ago. He'll be on in just a minute. And the down detector is rising. So more up. There you go. You got on me there, Sean. Where's Sean? Hey, good morning. We are ready to go. Oh, awesome. I had to get Dorita John's banner here a minute, but yeah, I've been watching the down detector and it is in fact climbing. The problem is getting more, more egregious at this moment in time. Kind of interesting. I want to see where X kind of came back up, but cloud flare is rising. So it's affecting opening eye. Let me throw this up here a minute. We're going to watch this today because it feels like this is, this is not a normal activity here. And I have a feeling you posted something that said it's a DOD attack. Yeah. So all these websites and apps and things to see on there, they all use Cloudflare, Cloudflare system, right? Right. And it's not just like there's there's a lot more than what there's actually been posting and showing. There's actually a what is it called? The medical system where a lot of these like clinics and doctors, offices and hospitals are using the same cloud system. And one good friend of mine, she's actually a doctor. a person that does the coding for the clinic. And she said that their system is down because it's dependent upon Cloudflare. So all those systems are dependent upon Cloudflare now. The story is that Cloudflare said they were trying to decentralize their entire system, which would be like an end-to-end encryption user system, right? So that gives Cloudflare the ability to be able to protect their entire system without getting it hacked if it's on an end-to-end encryption user system. So they both said for a long time this is what it was and so on. the attack that happened this morning uh based on that information we know that the only way that can be done is to a dod server attack on the system and so that's why they've got their maintenance guys all working trying to get it up and running but i think it's pretty uh i don't believe in coincidences either because take a look at all surrounding events that are going on right now we have Hillary and Bill Clinton didn't show up for the Senate hearing yesterday. Today, they're going to be releasing the Epstein files. They're voting on it to get it released. They believe they have all the votes to get it done. There was a press conference that Marjorie Taylor, Thomas Massey, and some of the other Democrats are out talking this morning about it. Let's see, we have... Yesterday, Marco Rubio had just appointed the Muslim Brotherhood as a designated terrorist organization yesterday. So here's my thought. So if I was... an enemy of a foreign country, and I wanted to take down and say, you know, maybe do a routine run, a test, and see if we can shut down half of the country, especially the most important part of the critical infrastructure, which is like your hospitals, your Your water and your electricity, your gas, all the things that, you know, as well as like nine one one nine one one systems. Right. So if they are all operating on the cloud fair system and you take down the cloud fair system by putting up a book like a bot or bug or whatever, a computer virus into it, that would affect if not more than half. That means communications go down. That means the most important way for people to get access to certain information, to provide services, basic services for people, all that stuff goes down. so that tells me right there that the end the end encryption user system uh where they have told us basically then the encrypted end-to-end encryption user system is the best and safest way as far as communication system goes and now we know that it's a fallacy this is something i have been talking about for years about um Like, well, one of the big issues I said back about eight years ago, I had said that once the United States starts putting all of their systems on the digital system. Right. So if it's not in a closed loop system, a closed loop system and. which a lot of it is, but they've been integrating a lot of the other, not the mainline system, but the other types of systems that are dependent upon companies like Cloudflare. And just recently, we found out that China has had access to our entire military database, which means they've been having access to literally everything, which means where their ships are, the communication logs, I mean, everything. So when a country starts putting everything all in one, we start putting all of our stuff in one basket. And today, we just found out that over half of the internet went down. Are we up to half now? Because I was saying it was about a third. Is it about half that we're up to? Because it's climbing. It's half. Half of the internet system went down. And because they pointed out on... Get Cloudflare here. I'm going to see where we're at. I believe there was a post on X. If you look up the hashtag CloudFlare, somebody had posted about how half of the goods and services and the systems that are out there, they're dependent upon CloudFlare for their basic OS operating systems. And earlier when I was looking at that chart, it showed that, let's see, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, Yeah, looks like they've got part of it back up again. I had to kill the feet there because it's going down our feet a little bit here. So there's struggles out there. There's some struggles today. Yeah, yeah. That's why I told and advised a lot of people, even like real estate agents to... even like a local police department to anybody that has basic services. It's a really great idea that you keep all the paper copies of everything. I said, you may look at it as a redundant system, but I said, listen, anytime you put anything into a digital format, it can be hacked, it can be corrupted, and it can be destroyed very easily. So if you have a backup system, maybe you've got some backup flash drives, you know, start saving things on flash drives. If you need to get access to offline, you know, screenshot it, you know, screen capture it or record whatever the video is or whatever. Put everything up back on. I have tons of USB flash drives and they're really not that expensive and they're really great. I mean, you can buy them like in a big bulk package on Amazon. You can say you're like movies, your music or your documentations and things like this. And it's going to serve you well because down the road, if the Internet does go completely, I mean, completely goes out or it's been hacked and it's unusable, maybe a few redundant systems can use it. You're going to want to be able to have access to information, right? So having those USB cards is going to be your lifesaver. Well, here's another thing, too, is in order to protect yourself against an EMP attack, which could happen. I mean, I think that's a very large probability that that's going to happen at some point in time. I just do. You know, I might be wrong or even a solar flare. A solar flare could tip it off. You know, that's that's something. And if you use an old microwave, you can get an old microwave and unplug it and stick all your stuff in there and close the door. That'll that'll help protect some of your stuff from an EMP. That's actually a policy, by the way. Oh, is it? Yes, it is. Okay. My bad. The reason why it's a policy is because number one, it's not grounded to anything. So if it's not grounded, see the way electricity works is when something captures electricity, it's got to go somewhere. And if you don't have a, and this is what I do, what I've done before many times is you can take an old microwave, but what you need to do is take a pair of pliers and you're going to pull out the two flat tongs and leave the ground and you plug that into an outlet. now you've got it grounded you can stick it you can stick your stuff in there and it'll protect it for the most part but you have to understand that if any time you have say for example i take my cell phone um and i put my cell phone inside of a microwave If I don't create a barrier between this and the microwave itself, for example, and I just set it right on the metal on the microwave, it's electricity hits it. It's going to surround the entire thing inside and out before it gets grounded out. So it's going to get affected. So the best way to do it is just put cardboard over, you know, some cardboard sleeve or you can get one of those like little EMP pads. they have those little EMP bags that you can get, stick your phones and stuff in it, right? A lot of other people in the intelligence world, we have those little EMP bags and stick them in there. And you don't have to turn your phone off. Even if you turned your phone off, I will tell people this. So if you turn your phone off, so your, your, Essentially, the government or hacker, they can still get access to your phones nowadays, even if your phone is off, right? Remember how back in the day they used to have the phones where you can pop open the back, you can take the batteries out? Yeah. Well, what a lot of people don't realize is there's a small residual amount of electricity that's actually being still stored into your phones. They're still able to hack into your phones. even with the battery taken out. So you get about two, three hours worth of stored energy. It's called kinetic energy. That's still stored into the phone. Well, the only surefire way, and I always tell people get those little Faraday bags, but if you're worried about EMP, here's the thing. If an EMP were to actually happen, You've got about fifteen seconds. You've got about fifteen seconds to get your phone into that little Faraday bag. Now, the question is, where do you keep it stored and how quickly can you get to it? So the chances are ninety nine percent of everything that's every electronic device is going to be out there. It's going to get fried at some point. But the ones that are actually a little bit ahead of everybody else. they're going to have something like uh say a metal morton building and they're going to take copper wire and they're going to screw copper wire to the side of the building and they're going to send that into the ground say a copper rod you're going to put into the ground and they drill a hole in the copper rod and stick the copper line to it Now, that whole building is nothing more than a Faraday cage. You can put your tractors in it. You can put your phones in it. You can put literally everything in it. Those people are going to have all their stuff protected. But here's the problem is your devices are inherent upon cell towers. They're also inherent upon, say, like I have a Starlink, right? So I have a Starlink satellite. so you might go make myself a cup of coffee while you're talking about this i can still hear you but i'm gonna go grab some more coffee okay sounds good because i think you can i think you got this right yeah okay i'll be right back okay so yeah so you if you have uh any type of like you know uh any all the systems that are out there if they get do good with an amp Chances are that the vast majority of them are not hardened. Okay. So, which means as chances are that you're, even if you preserve your cell phone in a Faraday bag, or let's say you've got a Morton building and you're working in there and it's grounded. Okay. Or if you have a metal shed and you ground that metal shed, everything that's in it is going to work. Okay. So you're, maybe you got a little helicopter. little two-man helicopter in there or a car or you know things like this they're going to be um pretty well protected, and you can still use them. They're still usable, and you can drive them out, fly them out, or whatever. But as far as communications go, what's going to be the mode of communication is going to be either a citizen band radio, which a lot of people are going to be using, or you can get yourself a handheld ham radio, okay? This is going to be the big thing. So you want to have at least this... uh this type of system uh already you know uh charged up and everything ready to go that's what comes with two batteries But you want to have those so that way if the system goes down, your phone is going to be just nothing more than going back and looking through pictures, right? Most of your vast majority of the apps will not be able to work. The internet is going to be down. You're not going to have access to the mainstream internet. You will not have access to the military internet. Hard lined system, which is where they're all the communication that's being handled through the hard line. The general public does not have access to that. So. However, they do have on the military does have a several different channels on the ham radio. And you can go to those and you can listen in, right? Just like, you know, your radio stations and stuff. Chances are the vast majority of the radio stations are going to be affected as well, like your local FM channels and stuff. But the ones that are and this is something that I've noticed, too, is that there since twenty thirteen, there was a implementation plan. There was a bunch of tax money that went into this. where the vast majority of the radio stations were getting the money to harden their systems. But even if they harden their systems, there's still a chance that if an EMP were to take it out or a part of it, say, for example, there was a certain function of it, they would have to replace that function. And if they don't have an extra piece of that function on hand, That radio station is not going to be operable. If it is operable, it's only going to be for short range because a lot of your electrical systems right now, like the nineteen nineteen eleven electrical systems, that's what we call the electrical grid system. We'll go down completely. So if they don't have a backup generator, people don't have backup generators. Chances are they're not going to have electricity for their homes, businesses and things like this. So if we do get hit with the EMP, there's there's several ways we can get hit with the EMP. One, like you were saying, solar flare. Right. Now, this probability of the chance of actually getting hit with a solar flare is like the margin is like one and one and a half a million. OK, that's that's you have a greater chance of getting struck by lightning than for it to go down because of a solar flare. the more probable likelihood of an emp happening is going to be done to say a hypersonic nuclear missile where it's going to have a very low yield it's going to say maybe like a like a ten maybe twenty uh maybe a twenty ton right and what they do is they fly that up over the central part of the united states of stratosphere and they detonate it and it's a controlled detonation now what happens is the amount of energy that comes out of it it starts to scatter as far as wide as it can and then it starts to come down like rain but the thing is you'll see this big orange ball of fire in the sky but what you can't see is the static electricity is coming now but you'll notice it because the hair on your arm will stand up like really Oh, yeah, you're on your arm and your neck, everything starts to stand up like static electricity, like you rub yourself with a balloon. That's that's what you're going to have this feeling like static electricity all around you. This is crazy, because this past week, a couple of us were talking, you know, when the solar flares were going on, a bunch of us were talking about having, you know, static, getting, you know, an unusual amount of static. So When they detonate like a hypersonic, it's even more. You'll feel, yeah, it's much more. You'll feel it is more intense. Really? Much more intense. Okay. It's... You ever got that feeling like when you maybe like you're in a dark alley or in a darker room and just trying to navigate through and all of a sudden you feel something kind of just sort of brush up against you just sort of like a slightly for a second. And all of a sudden all the hairs in the back of your head start standing up and your brain is just buzzing. And that's the kind of the general relativity feeling that you'll get from a hypersonic nuclear missile going off in the sky. Now, there is going to be a certain level of radiation that will come down with it. It's not going to be, well, I'll put it this way, wherever it detonates over America and right below that, that's going to be the most heavily concentrated parts of the area. So the model, the radiation exposure, that's nobody knows. And even the best scientists in the world have come up with theories based on math calculations. And they say, well, it's like, you know, point oh five percent. Right. Especially if it detonates way up in the stratosphere. But there is still a chance for that radiation can still catch that jet stream and still end up somewhere else. How much is it relative to what's usually around us? uh so well according to a lot of the the research panels on this um if you're more likely to suffer a horrible horrible radiation burns um if you are let's just say a typical strategy would be is it would send a hypersonic missile and it would detonate a hundred and fifty feet above the city. Okay, off the ground a hundred and fifty feet. It will have in fact a widespread effect right up to about I think it's like five miles. Say an average kiloton of nuclear kiloton could be anywhere from to on up to two hundred and twenty but a lot of the tactical nuclear missiles that we have today they're like again they're very tactical they're small small amounts of yield it could be you know five ten it could be twenty at the most depending on the size of the city that they're trying to target or the area but when it detonates a hundred and fifty feet above the ground, it's going to have a greater outward blast. Now, if it's an actual impact to the ground, the actual outspread of it is going to be, it's going to be very diminished, right? So it's not going to go out as wide. We're talking like maybe, you know, a half a mile to a mile out, an air burst at a hundred and fifty feet. We're talking up to, a total of maybe thirty miles. That's with the aftershocks. But when you're talking about a detonation in the stratosphere, there is a... They have tried to measure this, and they said... There could be aftershocks from that that comes down, but it's going to be more generalized. The whole place is going to feel like an earthquake, sort of, especially right directly underneath where that blast is coming from. As far as getting radiation, when radiation burns, there's still a potential, because again, we wouldn't know exactly how many kilotons that particular missile has to begin with before it's detonated, right? Because obviously we have an early detection system. We can actually see when the launch takes place within ten to fifteen seconds. NORAD picks up on that. And they've got a bunch of other complicated systems that's all tied into this. But within thirty seconds of that missile going off, they know exactly where that missile is going, what kind of missile it is, what class it is, and they will have a pretty generalized idea as to if it's a nuclear missile or if it's a... Most of them nowadays are tactical missiles, but They have roughly about ten to fifteen minutes to shoot it down, right? And most missiles can, well, say, for example, let's say Russia were to launch an nuclear missile out to the United States, it would take about approximately thirty minutes to reach the United States. So that's why we have our early detection systems And Russia has their detection systems and everybody has detection systems. But as soon as they know somebody is launching a missile at them and they know that's where it's going to land, it's going to detonate. Um, they'll send a response back, which is they'll send their missiles back to that location. Um, it's all kind of, it's all a bunch of war game stuff. But as far as when it burst up way up in the sky, um, But what I've read anyway, didn't get up to about to what a sunburn, you know, you start standing outside in the Southern Florida in the middle of summer without a t-shirt on, you know, and you're out there for about an hour. And then all of a sudden you go back into the house and you were just beat, beat red, right? You'd get the sunburn. That's about what the effect would be. But there will be a lot of, a ton of static electricity that comes down with it. So if, If your stuff, the general rule is if it ain't grounded, it's no good. So if your house isn't grounded, obviously that's an issue too. You can turn your regular home into a Faraday cage and there is a way to do that. How do you do that? so one of the best ways to do it is actually put steel roof on your house and then at the end of your steel grub you're going to drill a hole and you're going to insert your copper wire to it and you're going to attach it to that and run it down the side of your house and have it go straight into the ground maybe like a copper rod again you know and how about uh have a hole in the copper rod and that feeds your line to it put your screw in and hold it in place But the copper rod needs to go down at least about three sheet. And you can do that on both sides of the house. And essentially you turn your whole house into a Faraday cage. That's a cool idea. I never thought about doing that. I know a rich man up in Northern Wisconsin. He built this million dollar house. And he built the whole house around the function of turning it into a Faraday cage. Wow, that's kind of cool. steel roofing, steel siding. Um, even the windows, they're all made of steel around the window itself. Um, it's not that little, or I like the windows we have where we have that plastic, you know, um, everything is all steel, like everything except for the windows on the outside of the house is all steel and everything is grounded. Cause he's got probably over a hundred and fifty grounding points, uh, around the walls. So yeah. That's really kind of cool. I didn't even think about that. Yeah. And then, of course, he's got all the parts and stuff. He was showing me one day, he's like, I've got these towers. He's got this little radio, like a TV tower, as they call it. It's all their TV antennas. They're kind of like a triangular one. He's got like all a bunch of them down in this basement. He goes, yeah, the world goes to shit. I've already got the pad and everything. I've got the three little prongs sticking up in it. He said, all I need to do is go out there and assemble that tower. and raise it up stick it in there stick the bolts in he said i i don't need to worry about anything else because everything already attached to it i can i can run my ham radio to it i can put a tv you know antenna or whatever he used that for his like his communication tower so but the guy's like all prepped out ready to go and it's just it was absolutely crazy but He invited me out for a weekend just to go and take a look at it, all of this stuff and give him ideas about what he can do differently or what's the best way to do this or whatever. Cause hit big thing is all about security. That's a great idea. I love it. Yeah, he's like, well, you know, he said, my house is out in the middle of the woods. It's like forty miles out of the bump up. You know, you're never going to find me. I said, well, what you got a heat signature that gives off on your house. So if someone's flying a little drone looking for a heat signature, they're going to find your house. I said, how are you going to mask that? You know? Yeah. Have you ever seen this? It's a bananas about bananas and radiation. I thought this is so. So it's showing that if you live within fifty miles of a nuclear nuclear power plant, this is what it's equivalent of in bananas. They go down airport security, dental X-ray one day on Earth. You know, each one of those as a case. And I don't know how many are in that. But any a flight from New York to L.A., living in concrete, stone or brick for a year. Average dose within ten miles of Three Mile Island accident. Spending an hour two miles from Fukushima. Six months of eating food, mammogram, and a CAT scan. That is kind of cool, you know? Yeah, and you know what? Here's what's interesting. So when people go get chemotherapy for, like, cancer treatment, right? Yep. Well, they tell you there's only a certain amount of chemotherapy we can give to a human being based on it's a generalization of radiation or chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is a form of radiation. And so they give you this radiation basically to kill the cancer. And then what the problem with that is it's killing healthy cells as well. It all does. Burn slash and poison is what the cancer industry uses to deal with the problem. And I think it creates way more of a problem. That's why I opted out. Yeah, because, you know, it's like taking a hammer. It's like taking a hammer to yourself, trying to smash out whatever it is. It doesn't work because you're hurting the host as much as the cancer. So I just seen yesterday there was a. There was a research center in India, and they just came out with a method. There are three method programs they have. It's all experimental right now, but they're getting really good results from this. But the three methods that they use, none of it is radiological, none of it is chemical. It has to do with basically they use certain parts of organic plants and they derive serums from that and they filter out what they don't need. But there's three-step program that they apply to this. And what it does is that they inject it into the body right where the cancer is. And then what it does is it really... goes into the cancer the DNA of the cancer and it tricks the cancer into flipping back to being becoming a normal healthy cell huh that's interesting yeah and and they could trick that cancer into becoming a normal healthy cell again Well, voila, the cancer is turned back into healthy cells and you don't lose that cell mass that your body requires, right? So oftentimes people who are on medications or on chemo radiation, they lose that cell mass because it not only attacks the cancer itself, which is basically cancer does is consume the other cells. So when you kill off that cancer, it's also hurting the host as well as hurting other parts of the cells in the body. And then pretty soon it just leaves you into nothing more than a husk of a shell. And where this process is more, instead of just trying to take a hammer to this problem, let's just trick the cancer into thinking that it's got to get, you know, turn into a healthy cell. and so far they've showed a few things but uh it's very promising and they found a few cases where people have been completely healed from it or have reduced the amount of the cancer throughout the body significantly like ninety to eighty to ninety percent so um we'll see Wow. It's so interesting. There's so much that we have to learn out now. And we tweak the things that we know. Every day we should be learning something new and increasing our knowledge and our ability to have discernment and wisdom. All we got to do is ask God about that. So it's awesome. He provides. He sure does. Yeah. So what else do you want to talk about today, Sean? Hmm. Well, I think one of the things is, I think the importance on why people need to know Jesus Christ, why he's so important. And I think that, you know, more and more people nowadays, they really do need Jesus. I mean, the evidence of sin is so prolific nowadays, you know. more people just if more people come to know Jesus I'm telling you that could fundamentally shift a lot I mean it would take it to care of a lot of problems you know on this world today because people will have a conviction in their heart saying you know all I know what's right I know what's wrong and knowing that you've got this You got this guy who was actually God in the flesh who took the punishment for the punishment for all of us. You know, all the lashings that he took, it would have been enough to kill anybody. And then on top of it, they made him carry his cross all the way up to Golgotha, which is like well over a mile. And once he gets there, they nail him to this cross. And this is the most fantastical thing about it is, is that he didn't die from his injuries. He died from giving up his life. You know, he told the Lord, he told God, he said, I surrender my life. I put my life in your hands. So he voluntarily died for us so that we could come to grace. We come into the fold, into the kingdom of heaven. But here's the thing that I've been seeing is that a lot of people who have come to Christ are still becoming more lukewarm Christians. They're not, what's the best way to say it? Put their phone down, put their computers down, open up the Bible and just read. I see a lot of people using Christianity for prosperity and for the material world. They think that you, you know, the claimant and frameant people They're still worshiping the material world rather than worshiping God and trying to make things right here, which we should. We should be doing that. But it's in a way that we serve, not in the way that we take. And so people say, if I say the right words and God's going to give me this, that's wrong. OK, that you don't hold God to a contract. He will bless us as he sees fit. And usually it's to give away to other people, not for himself. well jesus tells us when you follow me you take up your cross and follow me so what is by taking up a cross mean well you're taking up the cross that was actually well whether you know it or not that cross you've already got a cross that was designed by sin for you and you're going to have to carry that cross with you no matter what but to be in a position where Jesus says, okay, because you have placed your faith in me, I want you to pick up your cross. I want you to carry it, and I want you to follow me. So what do children do best? They watch their mom and dad. They watch the people in their environment, and they follow them. They mimic everything they do, right? So if they see, you know, it's like my son was saying to me one day he's when he when he first got saved he's like i don't even know how to act like a christian man i said well easy just take up your cross and follow jesus so whatever jesus says do what he says just obey him that's that's how we we allow him to mold us and sculpt us and to clean out every area of our heart that's filthy because I know I've had this one skeleton in my heart for a long, long time, and I was like, no, Jesus, I don't want you to go in there and clean that up, because, you know, I'm afraid of losing my salvation. And then... One day Jesus comes to me and he goes, listen, let me clean it out so you don't have to carry that burden anymore. He said, in essence, it doesn't belong to you. It belongs to me. So I said, okay. I opened it up and I said, have at it. It's just dirty. There's a lot of dead skeletons in there. And the amount of relief that I felt, just this burden lifted off my shoulders and sat down. I don't have to feel that burden anymore. It made me want to pick up that cross that made me want to follow him, pursue him. And people think that it's going to be a heavy burden to carry, but it's the exact opposite. And he says that in the Bible that, that, you know, that, My yoke is light. And it's something that the more you become more like Jesus, the more light, the lighter the world feels. You don't feel the pressure. You don't feel the pressure so much. You don't feel because you realize that not everything here is hanging on what we do individually. This is God's work. Or what we look like or what kind of job. Yeah. yeah so it's it's like i i've shared with my family and i shared with friends when they asked me what is your relationship with jesus like and i said well i'm not alone anymore I said, I could be before I knew Jesus, I could be in a crowded room. I could be in a football stadium, you know, the Superbowl and it's just, everything's happening. People are, are, you know, shouting, whatever you can hear. There's just loud roar. Right. And I could feel like the loneliest man in that room, the entire stadium. I could be the loneliest man. I'm just completely unhappy. I'm not anywhere near to being satisfied. but when i came to christ that's when i realized that i'm not alone anymore ever anywhere i go anything i do you know you start to get that sneaking feeling like man i feel like i'm kind of alone in this situation right but then all of a sudden he starts speaking right and you hear him not in a normal way but it's almost like Some of the Gen Z's will say it was telepathic. You know, Jesus speaks telepathically in a sense. He does. Yeah. And when he tells me, he goes, Hey, I'm right here. You're not alone. He says, we got this. You and I will do this together. I said, okay. And you know, I'll stop for a second. Sometimes a lot of, a lot of times during the day when I'm, writing music right and so the other day i was writing a song called reveal and i remembered i was writing it and i was like lord just reveal yourself to me in the way that i've never seen you before and give me the words you know of how to what to write in the song just reveal right And I didn't even have a title for the song yet. And then all of a sudden hit me and he speaks to me. He says, all right, I want you to write the song reveal. Okay. So he's bouncing back. What, you know, this idea that I had, they took what I had and then he used it as an idea and gave it to me. It feeds me that inspiration. And then I sat down and just, I mean, I went through like almost a whole notebook, just writing out the lyrics and, But it finally got it all right. And then, you know, started working on it, started sinking into sounds and started singing and everything else. And I just felt like Jesus was wrapping his arms around me the whole time I sang. And it just, I felt so free, so empowered. Like I could move a mountain with just one breath of air. And it felt great, you know. Yeah, that's, it really is amazing. And all of a sudden, you know, you can be in a situation and all of a sudden, you know, you'll get that, you get that boom and you just know, you know, and, and it's, it's hard to explain. It's like, it's a true knowing that, yeah, he's, I've actually, you know, I've had a couple of times where I've been upset about things and I'll literally hear him say, I got this. Don't worry about it. You know, trust. It's so counterintuitive to the way your brain is thinking at that moment because you're just, you know, you're wrapped up in the things around us. And I think that that's where we exercise our discernment in listening to hear God's voice instead of being distracted by the headlines and the things that are around us. It needs to be exercised. And when you exercise the gifts of the spirit, you hone them in. It's like sharpening a stone or sharpening a knife on a stone. You know, you're making that sharper so that you're quicker at hearing his voice than you used to be. And you're better at drowning out all the distractions. Exactly. You know, that's the thing is, you know, this is this is. A subject I hold very dear and close to my heart because when I led a men's Bible study group, it was called I Am Sharpened I Am. And we talked about the importance of understanding who the church is to begin with. The church is the individuals that have received Jesus Christ. It's not the building because... But you go back into scriptures when Jesus meets the woman at the well. Okay. This is a high noon or the hottest time of the day. Usually all the women come up early mornings, but this particular woman has come from a very, um, a very, uh, um, damaged past and her her social status reputation is literally in the gutter so she's not allowed to come up in the mornings with the other women to collect water from the well for the day so she has to come up during the hottest time of the day and she just feels like she's all alone and she feels like she can't worship god in the way in the best capacity as possible and even when she goes to the temple she has to go at a different time than everybody else and according to traditions uh the the gentile tradition that's you know i guess that's not uh you can't achieve that forgiveness because you didn't go at that certain time but because of the social status she's not allowed to go and so she's keep in mind she's this a really fractured woman and she's at the well and jesus shows up and He starts talking to her to have a conversation, and then he says, who do you say that I am? And she was the first one to declare that he was God in the flesh. And he says, I have come that whoever shall believe it in me, I shall fill them like a never-ending spring. So what he's talking about is he's come to destroy the traditional church. And that is why a lot of the- The religious spirit. Right. He's putting it under the religious spirit. He's putting into a lot of traditional stuff, the traditional ways of doing things. Because in the beginning, it was meant to chastise people to be godly people. But then the religious leaders used that and turned it into a religious spirit rather than a spirit of relationship with God himself. So that's why Jesus came. So he has a personal relationship with each and every one of us. Look at the tangible things that we have now. So our country started out as a republic with a constitution. Evil people started adding to this. And they added more and more laws and rules. And each one of those got us away from the freedom we had. And I'm using this as an analogous situation to the Bible because God gave us what we needed to walk in the Garden of Eden with him. We kind of screwed it up. And as soon as we left that, the people that around like to dominate other people, because if you don't follow God, If you don't follow God and you don't have a relationship with God, you will turn yourself into a form of God and you'll want to dominate. and control and dominate. God doesn't work that way. He gives freedom. He gives joy. He gives love. Domination has nothing to do with God whatsoever, nor do the rules. And so you go back to the Bible and the Jews added like six hundred forty eight more rules onto what God gave us. And those were manmade. And so when you look at what happened to the United States, it's kind of the same way. You know, we had we had a short list of amendments. And very no statutory law whatsoever. You protected the rights of people to walk freely with God and let him teach people what's going on. And so it is the pattern is set there for domination control and to usurp God through those through those activities. And, you know, people want to create themselves as little gods and their little fiefdoms and such instead of acting like we should, which is of service and being an observer, not somebody who controls. And it happens all the time in the Christian church. People want to turn other people into their projects. That is evil. That is wrong. Other people aren't anybody's project. And we can love them and look at them exactly the way they are. Now, you have to stop people who are infringing on other people's rights or are doing the wrong thing. And that's God's law. You have to stop them. You can't allow them to continue to hurt other people, right? But the point being is that when we walk with God, you want to obey his rules, his natural law. And then your heart is inclined to service to others, not self-gratification or for self. That's not what's part of it. It's always in service. It's growing. It's about life. When you watch what happens with Satan, who is a miserable failure and a puke, like I said yesterday, all he wants to do is destroy control and pull people away from God. He's trying to set himself up as a proxy God. Guess what? He'll never do it, which is the joke's on him. He's that dumb that he thinks that he can usurp God. What's he going to do? Get rid of God? What's going to happen to his existence? If he were actually to get rid of God, I'm pretty sure that he's toast at that moment anyhow. Talk about total insanity. Even Satan knows he's going to lose. He knows the end of the story. He's already lost. He's a miserable, blind, blaming little puke. Yeah, so that's why he's trying so hard to convince every human being to follow him, right? And to basically just follow themselves right into their own hell. Yes. Does he really care about people? No, absolutely not. He could care less. He feeds off of people. They feed off of fear and of this emotional nonsense that people get themselves tied into. They literally feed off of it. exactly and you know and i always told my kids is that the bible gives us instructions on on everything in life anything and everything you need to know about life if you're a young man you're a grown woman even if you're you know somebody in the middle age or even older you know if you're if you're struggling and you need instructions on how to deal with the situation this is where the bible gives you very clear instructions on how to deal with this and how to deal with it in the best way ever um and if you compare that to all the other modern worldly ways of doing things the scripture will give you the best version of yourself the best version of who you are your identity and and creator um but more importantly how to deal with the situations around you And one of the things I've learned is the truth is the only amount of control that I have today is that I have decided to put my faith into Jesus Christ and I've decided to obey Him and I've decided to pursue Him and I've decided to serve in any capacity where I can. The only thing I have that's real and it's truly solid is choices. This is the one thing that separates us, the human race, from all of this other creation is we were given the choice to say yes or no, to follow or, you know, to lead, right? Or to chase after Jesus or chase after the material things, right? We are the only creation. Why? Because we were literally created in his image. Literally. Okay. So if you, you know, prior to Jesus coming, It was all metaphorical, right? We can go back and read in the Old Testament. There were so many prophecies about him coming. And people would say, well, this is metaphorical. God doesn't understand my pain because he's never come down. He's never had to suffer like I've had to suffer. And I worship and I give and I give. And in the end, I end up with nothing. And I'm still going to hell because of my sin. Well, God had a plan already. And so, and this is the really cool story that I teach people is that what scripture says is when Jesus died, where did he go? He went to Abraham's bosom, which is considered heaven, right? That's another word for heaven, Abraham's bosom. And there's a chasm between Abraham's bosom and hell. And Jesus is there and he's preaching the living word of God to everybody that's in hell. These are all the people that died before he arrived, right? So those people got a second chance. So those who turned and said, No, Lord, Lord, my God. They were able to ascend to heaven. Why? Because they heard about the word. They tried to live an honest, a perfect life, right? But they found that they have failed. Why? Because they're sinning the sin that's in the body. If you sin just once in your entire life, you're doomed. You're doomed to go down. If you think about it in your mind, it's the same as doing it. That's what Jesus said. so you know if you think about doing something wrong that's that's it's the same thing as doing it yeah in the eyes of god do you've already condemned yourself and there's no way that we could pay we cannot pay that just that one sinful thought right there's no way we could pay that debt it would it would be a forever thing in hell okay that's that's the payment Well, like we were talking yesterday, when we do things that are wrong or even think things that are wrong, it doesn't stop with us. It goes out into the world. Therefore, there's a spiritual law that was broken that God laid out, his sandbox, his rules, his law. We have to obey it. We're not above him. And so when we break those spiritual rules that he's given us, even to think the wrong things, there's a penalty for that. There's something that has to be done or paid to make it right. And the only one that can do that is God Almighty. I like the analogy that we brought up yesterday that we're in a parallel universe. When Jesus came down, he dipped down into our universe and took on God's form. Or took on man's form. But he's still here. He was still here, but he dipped down and he took on the form of man. He's the only one that lived a perfect life, absolutely spotless life, that can stand before God Almighty. And he paid the price for us. so that we can live with God forever without that, without him doing that. We, we, there's a, there's a barrier between us. Yeah. Yeah. There's, there's a veil. There's literally a veil between us and the heavens. Right. And when Jesus came in, he died. The moment that he had died, God has shed a tear and. The veil was run into and, and, And he destroyed the barrier between us of us going directly to him. I have a different idea on some people like to pray to other entities. I do not. Because I believe that when that veil was rent in two, it was for us to go to the top dog and that's God himself and Jesus Christ. It's like when you are able to go and talk directly to God instead of, you know, instead of, you know, praying to some million spiritual entities out there. You know, I'm like, I'd rather just go talk to him because it seems to be monkey in the middle doesn't always work out because you may not know exactly who you're talking to when you go to God. I mean, why wouldn't you go to God? That's kind of, That's kind of like, you know, you know what that sounds like to me when people don't go directly to God. It's like having two little kids on, you know, brother and sister who are fighting and they've got a problem and they want to try to scam mom and dad. So they'll go to another with their brother or sister and say, hey, go talk to dad about this for me, you know, or something like that. Why would you do that when you can go right straight to dad? It makes no makes no sense to me whatsoever. Yeah. And think about it this way, as far as like technology wise. So, you know, we've had cable TV for like numbers of years, right? So basically the way it works is they put these towers up or they have the lines in the ground, right? They have this huge middleman. So here's your house over here. Here's the middleman. And then there's essentially the cable company itself, right? And they get all their information that comes in from satellite from somewhere else, right? So you get all these little middlemans in there. Now, when I got the Starlink satellite, so I put Starlink satellite and put it up, right? I have literally a direct access to that satellite. You skip the earthly grid. You go right straight to the satellite. And I have access to literally everything around the entire globe. So I can get on that internet. I can literally see everything. And I don't have all these interruptions like I did with the cable company, right? So this is like what Jesus did was when he when he had died, an earthquake had happened. Right. And the temple was literally ripped in half. It even be what they call that temple. menorah veil the menorah veil was ripped in half as well so what that does is it was a pretty empty setup so when jesus came back three days later and he started speaking to the apostles he said i'm going to send the holy spirit and what is the holy spirit that is him speaking of the breath of the breath of god right So that Holy Spirit now has access to us because that veil has been torn that allows us to have direct communication with the Creator, with Jesus, through that Holy Spirit. You know, the Starlink, right? And have any questions, you know, concerns, or you just, maybe you just have one of those days, you need to just sit there and listen to what he's telling you, you know? Maybe you'll pick up the Bible, start reading his word. Hopefully he's something in that words or speaking loudly. You ever do that where you left your Bible fall open and you'll just let it fall open and let God put his finger and go there. And then all of a sudden you go, boom, and you start reading it and you're like, whoa, this is amazing. I did that after I found my dad's Bible and it was somebody had come in and removed a bunch of stuff that they shouldn't have done. And all of a sudden, the only thing I really wanted was my dad's Bible. That's the truth. And so I, and it wasn't there and I was like, yeah, we searched for it, but we can't find it anywhere. And I was really sad. And then all of a sudden I looked in a stack of, I was looking around for it and I looked in a stack. where he would never have put his Bible. It was on the floor under a stack of books and papers and such. And I looked down there and there it was. I couldn't believe it. It was like God was directing me right straight to where dad put it. And I kind of felt we had a connection. My dad and I had a very good spiritual connection. And I went right there, and I picked it up, and I couldn't believe it. I'm like, oh my gosh, I found it. Another person that was standing there, and it looked like I slapped him right across the face. He's like, where was it? And I'm like, oh, so that might have been gone too at the time. Who knows, you know? And so I looked at that, and I'm like, I was just like, thanks, God. That's the only thing I really wanted. I came home that night, and I was pondering things. And I let the Bible fall open. And it was a direct message to my heart over what had just happened and the events of the day. And I couldn't believe it. It couldn't have been more clear. And a lot of times that happens. If you let God order your steps and follow him, amazing things will happen and you know that that also goes back to the discernment when jesus was um you know on the mount of olives what was the first thing he said the first thing he said is watch out that no one deceives you watch out that no one deceived you don't live by the headlines you've got to live by the word of and the breath of god And you will be able to discern and see exactly what you're taught, what or who you're listening to. I got, I got to yourself, you know, what you listen to, you know, our spiritual, you know, there's so much talk about the poisons in our food and our water and our air, but you know what, it's way more important to watch those spiritual things that come into us and don't bite on everything just because we want, we have, we human beings have a natural inclination towards the towards the things that are fantastic. And we want to believe them. We want to see them. It breaks the monotony of everyday life for most people. Some people like myself love the monotony of life. I can sit there and throw a horse and do her all day long and just do the normal tasks. And I don't need the fantastic. I just don't need it. I would be so happy living in the Garden of Eden. I'd be just like, oh, cool. Look at what bloomed today. That's kind of fun. I guess I'm going to move these leaves over here and do these normal mundane things that most people find. That's me. I'm perfectly happy doing absolutely pottering around. I can do both, but I'm perfectly happy with that. But we've got to be careful and really, really touch our hearts. and not jump after the shiny things in the world, but listen to that small voice and be content in all things. That's when you do it. And one of the things, one of my skill sets that God has given me was I'm a really good teacher when it comes to teaching things, right? So I thought, well, okay, how do I incorporate God's word? and teaching people today about what is disinformation what is misinformation right just to be very different from one another and how to guard your emotions from the lies of the world right because the world is full of lies right so i thought okay i'm gonna sit down and i'm gonna write this out and and i i will admit i kind of cheated a little bit i used grok to help me out you know and which was which was really helpful because when you're talking about disinformation and misinformation and then how literally tied into the bible and so i wrote a song and it's called echo box echo box gives you an actual description of instructions that it helps you understand how to guard your emotions from sensationalist things that are out there right like here's a good example so if you You see a big tag headline, and it's meant to evoke your emotions, right? Particularly what emotion is the most reactive emotion? That's anger, right? If we see something horrible happen to a little kid, every parent's going to be like, oh, I'm so mad, you know, all this happened, or these people allowed this to happen, or whatever, right? Mm-hmm. It's all invoked out of anger. Well, you have to take a step back and go, okay, who is sending this? Who's the source? And why are they sending this? Why is this the headlines that's constantly feeding on X constantly all the time? I see so many different people parroting basically the same post, right? Why am I seeing this in my feed? Okay. Oh, okay. Well, number one, chances are it's probably disinformation. It's probably misinformation. One of the two. So God tells us we need to take the approach is to be slow to anger, right? Be slow to anger. So take a step back and realize this does not directly impact you. Now, can impact your life in the long term possibly maybe but this is where this is where we need to pray about it first get directions from him on how to deal with the situation and he'll tell us you know this this isn't good for you sean you don't need to be seeing this today this is not not the direction i want you to go here's the direction i want you to go So just, just, just, just listen to my voice. Just obey me. And I promise you, you know, you're going to have a much better day. Don't worry about this. He's like, I've had control over everything, every circumstances, every situation from the beginning of time. He says, nothing is what he's saying. Yeah. So I'm like, okay, daddy, you know, I'll take your advice here, you know, and I started thinking about a lot of how we've got social media that don't like it when people post. Let's say a situation is like, oh, we've got all these Muslims that are coming into America and they're literally trying to take over a lot of these cities and a lot of states and stuff. And then I go back and I say, Lord, what do I do with this? He says, I want you to study about the history of Islam. And then come back to me. Okay. I want to study the history of Islam. And then I came back to him. I said, Lord, this is awful. This is, this was like, you know, right along with all the other religions that have ever existed, you know, all the tragedies and things that have unfolded because of it, or part of that, that spirit of religion. Right. And then I said, what should I do? What should I do? He says, write a song about this. I'm going to write a song about this. And I actually had come up with a title called Islam Scourge. And my distributor is saying, oh, no, that's, that's racist. You can't do that. You're going to offend people's feelings. Oh, no, you can't. Even though we have to, we live with people that are, that are, you know, that are Muslim and we live with people that are Jewish. You can't talk about it. You can't say the word black. You can't say the word white. You can't say any of this. You can't even address it. You can't say their name. You can't pretend to know anything. How do you know anything other than in your pathetic whiteness? I was so angry. I was so frustrated. And I came back to the Lord. I said, what do I do now? I said, this is not working. And he goes, read that email from your distributor. You know, okay, I want to read the email. Well, the poster or the cover is offensive, right? It doesn't say the music. It just says the album cover. I thought, ah. So I went and got, you know, just more generalized, looking like a little computer glitch. And then I thought, I'm going to change it a little bit. Instead of writing Islam Scourge, I'm just going to put Scourge on there. And nobody would ever be the wiser until they started listening to it. Well, by then, it's already out on iTunes, Spotify, and Boomplay, and millions of people have listened to it. And they go, oh, yeah, I resonate with this song, you know. And the ones that are offended, well, guess what? Sorry, it's too late. It's already out there. Well, this is interesting. You know what? I hate to say it, but I think I need to get going here a little bit early today, but I'm really thankful that you were able to come on because I really think we need to help people understand because I'm not hearing a lot of good teaching out there. It's all psychology rather than who is God? What's our relationship to God? I mean, you and I talked about it the other day and it's like, I don't hear a lot of messages of teachers that are going to who is God and what does this really look like? It's all, you know, what do I get and how do I, you know, the seven mountains churches and such. It's all about, it's the prosperity doctrine. It's like, is this what we worship? Is this what we're supposed to do? I don't think so. I really don't. And I think that when you look at the end times and what God said it was going to look like in the end times, People would be the lovers of money, the material world. Lovers of wealth, lovers of money, lovers of apostasy, lovers of false teaching, lovers of different ideologies, different interpretations. The word of God is never meant to be twisted up in any direction. It's very clear. So can you pray today? You want me to pray or do you want to pray? I can pray. That's fine. Let's do that. Why don't we finish it out today and we'll have you pray and then we're going to go around about our days. Sounds good. Go ahead. Dear Lord Jesus, we come to you today with excitement and obedience. Lord, we want to thank you for this opportunity to be able to speak out to the world and to share your word with the masses out there. And thank you for giving us the courage, the strength, and the stamina to be able to do this today and every day. Lord, we pray that, you know, You will reach out and capture the hearts and the minds of all the people out there, all the sinners, and help them repent, help them change and turn back to You, because You are the source of life. You have been since the beginning, and You always will be, even unto the end. Lord, we want to thank You for just... and general all the blessings that you've given us and your direction and your steadfast love and protection but more importantly for your sacrifice your sacrifice is the biggest significance in our faith in you and knowing that when we come to you and repent and change and ask that for you to lead us we know that we're not alone anymore And we don't have to be alone. We thank you, Lord, and we pray this in Jesus' name, God Almighty. Amen. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Thank you. All right, boys and girls, this is part of the show where we go to ding, ding, ding, ding. Don't go to brandenburgforgovernor.com because I'm the best non-consider as ever in the history of the United States of America. And I'd like to have a discussion with the rightful president of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump. Cowboy boots, they weren't better. We did talk about this, that, and everything. We fix things, right? At any rate, you know, our trust isn't in any person out there, whether it is, you know, there are people out there doing good works. There are people out there that are doing good works that look like bad works and bad works that look like good works. There's so much complexity going on. But the one thing that never changes is God Almighty. We can always put our trust in him and know that he works all things to good to those who love him and are called according to his purposes. He works all things. And so that's important to remember. It doesn't just work just the good things that make us feel good. Even the things that we don't like, he turns it into something beautiful. Every life needs a little manure on it, just like a garden, you know, in order to grow. So, you know, with that said, have a great day today and I'll be on again tomorrow. Hopefully we'll have more internet connectivity. I know it was kind of on and off today, but we kept going. We endeavored to persevere and we just kept going. With that said, everybody, God bless you. God bless all those whom you love and God bless America. Make it a great day today. And all your acts, deeds, thoughts, words, walks, whatever you want to say. Have a great day.
