Time Text
This is a test.
Go ahead.
.
The hour of the time is also shared on WRMI, Worldwide Shortwave Radio, 99.55 kHz, Monday through Friday nights, 6 until 7, Eastern Daylight Time.
This is my daddy's station.
I'm poop.
Plastic radio, like you always wished it could be.
101.1FM.
Eager.
101.1FM is owned and operated by the Independent Foundation Trust as a non-profit community service.
What's a tank without a barrel?
Leave your barrel at the tower.
What's a tank with a broken roof, A broken back, a scissored back?
Oh yes!
Our own.
Our own.
Our.
Our own.
Well, good evening, ladies and gentlemen, or afternoon, depending, of course, upon
which coast you are listening to this broadcast. And, uh, Some of you long-time listeners may know the significance of yesterday's date.
Not today's date, but yesterday's date.
It was May the 4th, 1992 that the Hour of the Time first aired anywhere in the world on the Becker Satellite Network.
Not thinking, not knowing, not understanding that we even had any listeners at all.
We thought we were just Up on the satellite, and no one in the world was listening.
Until we began getting buckets full of letters from all over the world, as a matter of fact.
And found out that there is a tremendous listening audience just on the satellite alone.
Not even counting all of the radio stations that carry this broadcast.
And the worldwide broadcast on shortwave WRMR.
We've been on a lot of different stations, folks, over the years.
And several different satellite networks.
And I've got to tell you that when we started, I was not even... I was not even confident, to tell you the truth, That we were going to last it all.
It was an experiment.
And as with everything that we have ever done, we sit down and we ask ourselves, is this the right thing to do?
And if it is, then we just do it.
And we trust in God to provide whatever it is that we need to make it work.
And if it is the right thing, then God has never failed to do that.
And so, what began as an experiment five years ago, yesterday, has really blossomed way beyond my wildest dreams or expectations or anything else.
All I knew is that we needed to do it, and that we were going to try it, and if it was right, then everything would go well.
And it has.
We started off With no money.
We couldn't even pay for the first couple of weeks of broadcasting when we went ahead and contracted to do it.
But, as always, magically, whenever we needed anything, it has always appeared.
And sometimes, folks, it has been really as if by magic.
We were recently in dire straits.
And some of you have pulled through and pulled us out of that.
And I want to personally thank on the air today, Al and Diane Hoop, who made a generous, sizable donation over this last two or three days while they were here visiting.
We went from just airing, you know, a show on satellite I think it was three nights a week, if I'm not mistaken.
Gary Bourgeois would probably remember.
But I believe it was three nights a week.
Went from there to three nights a week.
No, that's wrong.
We started off on satellite on Sunday night.
That's all it was.
One show a week on Sunday night.
From there we went to three nights a week.
And then we went to WWCR, Sunday, actually it was Monday morning, about two o'clock in the morning, all across the country, and we had no idea that there were people up at that time of night listening, and began to, you know, get letters from shortwave.
It just amazed me, it's always amazed me how this has happened.
And first we just got overburdened, I mean tons and tons and tons of mail because In the beginning, many of the wrong people thought that we were promoting their message.
And we were getting messages.
We were getting letters.
Newspapers and newsletters and cards of encouragement from Aryan nations and all kinds of weird socialists and communist groups.
And from the New Age, way over, you know, not all New Agers are bad people or are involved in bad things.
But there is, over the cliff, we were getting Stuff from those people.
And it took a while to make our message clear.
And finally we did it.
Then we began to get hate mail from all of those people.
All of them.
The racists claimed that we were race traitors in some way.
And the Jews, not understanding our message, claimed that we were anti-Semitic.
And many blacks I thought that we were against blacks.
Of course, the blacks that had read my book knew better than that.
People still are, ladies and gentlemen, confused all across this country about who they are, what this country is, and what they should be pursuing or promoting or backing, what agendas they should be following.
And that's exactly the way the enemies of freedom want it to be.
Because that's how they keep us divided, and if we are divided, then we are conquered.
There is only one, and I mean one, true, common, uniting bond of all American and freedom-loving people everywhere, and that is freedom.
And freedom means exactly that.
You can't have freedom just for you.
It doesn't work that way.
That's not freedom.
That's elitism.
That's Nazism.
That's all of the things that the tyrants and despots of the history of the world have been.
And of course, I don't promote any of that.
None of it.
I believe in freedom.
I believe that you should be free to do whatever you want to do as long as you don't hurt any other person Or any other person's property on the face of this globe.
And, you know, I haven't always practiced that, especially in my younger days when I was just as foolish and just as sheeple and stupid and ignorant and apathetic as everybody else, and was chasing moonbeams and Crazy causes and didn't understand what I was doing any more than a lot of you did.
And there's been a couple of times in my life when I did hurt somebody else.
And now, you know, I'm extremely sorry for that.
And kick myself in the butt almost on a daily basis for having ever fallen into the delusion that most people live their lives under on a day-to-day basis.
And I don't care who you are folks.
And I don't care what cause or gender you're pushing, in at least some part of it, you are fueling a delusion, a deception, an outright lie, if you will, in fantasy.
Most people live their lives mostly in fantasy, unfortunately, not really understanding anything about the world they live in, or indeed, in most instances, even the city that they live in.
They are afraid of other people or other places or things just because they are different.
They look different.
or they smell different, or...
It doesn't conform to what they've been used to all their life.
.
You see, I'm not one of these people Who is against the world coming together.
That's not in my bag of tricks, folks.
I'm against what's happening now because it's a lie.
It's a deception.
It's being brought about by lies and manipulations.
I'm about freedom.
And I'm about truth.
And I'm about bringing that to the world.
To everybody.
I don't care who it is.
There is no reason at all why we all cannot live together in peace and in harmony and in happiness without forcing our way or our religion or our philosophy or our dogma or whatever it is that we personally believe on everybody else in the world.
I started the Hour of the Times to try to bring that message to the American people and, of course, to the world.
Because if we lose our freedom here, then the whole world loses their freedom everywhere.
When I say world, I should say our freedom everywhere, because that's really the truth of the matter.
There have been some terrible things that have happened.
And because of these terrible things, and because of the study of history that I have And the knowledge of what these scum who are perpetrating the lies and the manipulations are trying to bring about in the world.
I have promoted what all freedom-loving people, and especially those in this country, have always done.
And that is the formation of militias.
The absolute refusal to give up your right to keep and bear arms.
No matter what laws are passed, no matter who says what to who or how they do it, the minute we do, I know that we're going to be enslaved and the world is going to take another step backward as it has done so many times in its history.
So, I think that some of the people who listen to this broadcast have been confused by all There are some people who think that you can't be an American citizen unless you're a white, Christian, free male.
You're wrong.
Just take a look around.
You can see that you're wrong.
And it doesn't matter what they did 200 years ago.
You're never going to go back to that time.
Nothing is going to move backwards.
The world is in a constant state of flux and change.
Nothing is ever going to be as it ever was before.
But it can be good.
And it can be better.
And it can be at least the very best that we can make it.
Whether it's the best that it can be or not.
And that's what I've always tried to instill in the listening audience to strive for.
To get involved.
To become active.
To understand that no matter how good they think it was, it's never going to be that way again.
But it can be better than it is now, or that it ever was.
Okay?
And I've outlined a lot of things that we can do to make that happen.
I've told you a lot of things that have happened and documented them about how our freedom is being taken away.
And we've gone through radio stations, satellite network, and so on and so forth.
And we've gotten to the point now where we've published a major book, Oklahoma City Day One.
We have now gone from just the hour of the time to a worldwide freedom radio network.
just recently and I'll tell you about that in a minute.
Let me let you take a breath here and let me come back and give some announcements and
stuff and then I'll talk about Porterville and where we're going with all of this and
what you can all expect from it in the future.
Thank you.
There's some down here, but it's the rising words, and the skies are not cloudy all day.
Home, home on the range, where the deer and the arrow play.
There's some down here, but it's the rising words, and the skies are not cloudy all day.

How often at night, when the heavens are bright, with the We'll come in pairs, by stirring words, and stars, not
Now vice to Jeremy, can ask as I gaze, if their glory exceeds that of ours.
Home, home on the rain, where the deer and the anvil play.
There's seldom is heard, a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy or rainy.
Home, home on the rain, where the deer and the anvil play.
There's seldom is heard, a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy or rainy.
Some people are going to be living there pretty soon.
You know, our conference is coming up.
Let me tell you about that right now.
For members, we've put together a conference that's... This is the fourth annual CADG Intelligence Service Conference, folks.
And this is going to be the best one ever.
Ever.
We have a private ranch This isn't a hotel.
This is not a motel.
This is a private ranch, ladies and gentlemen, with everything that we need.
Everybody who gets a bed is going to be sleeping in a bunkhouse.
And there are four bunkhouses.
Each one has ten beds, so there are forty beds available.
Everyone will get meals whether they stay in the bunkhouse on the ranch or whether they elect to stay in town at a motel.
Or if they wish, they may camp at the ranch.
And we have separate restrooms for men and women.
Full shower, bath and toilet and everything.
Facilities clean, wonderful.
All under the crystal clear azure blue Actually, it's more cerulean than azure.
Arizona skies.
At night, it's like a lens, a magnifying lens.
And you can see stars that you never dreamed were in the heavens.
It is truly God's country, one of the most beautiful parts of the entire world that you've ever seen in your life.
Now, many of you are visualizing something like Phoenix or Tucson.
You're seeing cactus.
You're seeing rattlesnakes and rocks and things like that.
Not so here.
Arizona has every kind of elevation and climate that you can think of.
And where we're going to be at is at about 7,500 feet in the beautiful White Mountains.
And the temperatures do not get hot like they do down in the Tucson and Phoenix area.
You're not going to find any cactus up here unless it's a real accident.
You will find lots of beautiful trees and deer and elk and antelope and occasionally a herd of skunks will ride through.
But that's okay.
Rabbits and everything that you can think of in great abundance.
Lots of wildflowers, plentiful water, the ranch has horseback riding, there's a petting zoo for the children, and lots of other things that I'm not even going to enumerate.
Just suffice it to say you will be more than pleased, you will be overjoyed, and you will be pampered and taken care of the whole time that you're here.
Remember prices.
This includes all meals, Your bed in the bunkhouse and the conference for five days, June 30th through and including the night of July the 4th.
For a single member, male or female, we don't care, single member of either CAGI or the Intelligence Service, the price is $400 for everything.
You have to provide your own transportation to and from the ranch.
Once you've paid your fee, we will send you all the information that you need, which includes a map.
For a couple, that is two of you, okay?
A couple, $740.
A couple must be a married couple, and you know that's just the way it is, folks.
That's $740 for a couple.
Single, $400.
Couple, $740.
For each child under 12, add $220.
Each child under 12, add $220.
Each child over 12, add $270.
That's each child over 12, add $270.
$740. For each child under 12, add $220. Each child under 12, add $220. Each child over
12, add $270. That's each child over 12, add $270. Remember, we're talking about meals,
bed, and conference. That means meal, breakfast, lunch, and supper for every member of the
family, bed for every member of the family, and conference for every member of the family.
Whether you attend the conference or not, you've still got to pay for it.
Now, here's for the people who want to come to the conference but don't want to stay at the ranch.
Maybe you don't want to stay in a bunkhouse.
Maybe you'd like to just camp out or stay in town at a motel.
For these people, when you have paid your fee, we will send you a list of all the available
motels and the phone numbers.
If you wish, you may camp out on the ranch.
All your meals will be provided and you can use the restroom facilities of the ranch.
That's no problem.
So if you don't want to sleep in the bunkhouse and you're single.
The price is $340.
That includes all your meals and the conference.
All your meals and the conference.
You can either elect to camp out at the ranch or you can sleep in town at one of the motels and you have to arrange for your own motel room.
We will send you a list of the motels and the phone numbers and their normal rates.
For a couple Meals and Conference, a couple, $680.
That's breakfast, lunch, and supper, and all conference functions.
Children under 5, if you're going to sleep in town at a motel or camp out, are free.
Children under 5 are free, and that includes their meals.
Children under 12, add $120.
Children under 12, add $120.
$120.00. Children under 12 add $120.00. Children over 12 add $240.00. Children over 12 add
Children over 12 add $240.
The main discrepancy of children over 12 is we're not charging the children under 12 for the conference.
Children over 12, we are.
Okay?
Because we know that they're probably going to attend.
There is one cabin available.
The cabin is available for anybody who wants it.
Members.
And the whole cabin is $1,075.
That's for a couple with meals.
That's the cabin, folks, with meals and conference, $1,075.
Cabin with meals and conference, $1,075.
One thousand and seventy five dollars.
That's for a couple with meals.
That's the cabin.
Folks with meals.
One thousand conference one thousand and seventy five dollars.
Cabin with meals and conference one thousand and seventy five dollars.
Each child under 12 at one hundred and twenty five dollars.
Each child over 12 at two hundred and forty five dollars.
Now if you're not going to have meals and you want the cabin and you fix the meals yourself in the cabin because there's a kitchen there, deduct $140 per person over 12 and deduct $70 per person under 12.
And that's for the cabin.
So there's only one cabin available.
If you want it, you've got to get your money in like immediately.
If you have any questions on any of this, ladies and gentlemen, Please call my secretary Connie at any time tomorrow.
Don't call during this broadcast.
Please call any time tomorrow and talk to Connie and she will make sure that all of this is explained to you individually so that you can understand it.
Now, non-members.
I've changed the price on non-members because we're going to do something this year that's a little different.
And so I want as many people as possible to come.
And for non-members, here's the price for meals, bed in the bunkhouse, and the conference.
For a single person, it's $500.
Single person, $500.
For a couple, meals, bed, and conference, $840.
So for meals, bed, and conference, non-members.
That's non-members.
Single person, $500.
Couple, $840.
For each child under 12, add $260.
For each child over 12, add $310.
And if you have questions, call Connie anytime tomorrow during the day.

Meals and conference only.
Now, if you're going to do this, and you're a non-member, you're going to have to arrange for your motel, either downtown, or you can camp at the ranch, just like members.

Make sure that you get your money in now.
All payments are non-refundable.
If you make a payment for your conference, however, whatever accommodations you have decided that you want, it is non-refundable under any circumstances.
So if you decide all of a sudden you're not going to come, or you find out for some reason
beyond your control that you cannot come, you are responsible to sell your slot to someone
else or you just lose that money.
If you want to work through us, you can call Connie, and if we have someone who wants to
come and we don't have any more room, then we can arrange for them to contact you and
make arrangements to come in your stead.
So we can help you, but we cannot, under any circumstances, refund your money at all.
We have to pay for the whole ranch.
Thank you.
So, that's the reason, folks.
We always do it this way.
We have facilities we have to pay for and things that we have to do.
So, I hope you all can come.
I'll be right back after this short pause.
Daddy said to play your gauges and the sets before you make it to the road.
Here's the deal, how we run.
When you hear the sound of a gun, because the western folks all know.
He's a pipe-a-lootin' rootin' tootin' son of a gun from Arizona, Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
Up in Arizona, where the bad men are.
The only thing to guide you is an evening star.
Workin', touchin', and the flower is Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
Guys made me sing it to the cows and sheep.
Every heart can sing a thing that hurts asleep.
And a bass so rich and deep.
Smooth and soft and low.
We always sing.
Draggin' music to the cattle as we swing.
Back and forward in the paddle on a horse.
That effect the fable gave, and it's such a funny name.
Who's the lord?
Is it Peter?
How'd he run?
When we hear the fellas come to call to us, then the folks all know.
He's a highfalutin' mootin' tootin' son of a gentleman, It's all right, thank God, all is yours.
So that is my story.
He swung back and forward in the saddle of a horse Then he took the bait he gated and he took the bunny
Made it through the roar and hit the feet of Howdy Rock When he hit the fellow gunner called the Western folks all
know He's a high pollutin' rootin' tootin' fellow gun from
Arizona Ragtime Cowboy Joe
Cowboy, cowboy Ragtime Cowboy Joe
Now, those are the real old Western cowboy, singing cowboy movie star stuff
that I've got tons of here.
And occasionally we do a whole day of that on 101.1 FM, eager.
Which, by the way, is a whole other venture.
Has nothing to do with the Harvest Trust or the Hour of the Time.
Or the World Wide Freedom Radio Network.
It is independently owned and operated by the Independence Foundation Trust as a non-profit community service station.
And the Independence Foundation Trust is our family charitable trust.
So everything that we make that doesn't go to take care of the beneficiaries of the trust during the year At the end of the year is rolled into the charitable trust and that is used to give back to the nation and to the community in thanks for all that they have given to us over the years.
This year the Independence Foundation Trust is giving a scholarship for one of the young high school graduates in the Round Valley to help them go to college.
It's all based upon an essay that they will write and submit for judging by August the 15th of the duty of all Americans to own firearms.
We'll see what comes of that.
Whoever the winner is will of course read it on the air in the Round Valley and maybe on the World Wide Freedom Radio Network.
We'll find out.
But anyway, back to what I was talking about at the beginning of the broadcast.
Porterville, California.
Had a great turnout.
Awful lot of people showed up and I spoke for two days, six hours the first day and I think I went seven or eight hours the second day, Sunday.
And I didn't repeat anything that I said on Saturday on Sunday.
So that's how extensive my workshops and lectures are.
And a lot of people came in there wondering what it was all about and just wanting to find out.
They had heard of me, didn't know anything about me.
Many of them had been listening to The Hour of the Time for years.
Some of them had read my book.
But all of them were interested in this country And in freedom and how we can save freedom for America.
And of course, if we can save it for America, then ultimately we have saved it for the world.
Some people say, well, Bill, you know, how can you be for freedom and be for one world government?
And again, they've got me wrong.
I'm not for world government.
I'm just not against it.
If somebody can show me how we can bring the world together In freedom, protecting the rights of each individual and making sure that no one is threatened or silenced or any of the things that tyrants and despots have done in the history of the world and that are beginning to happen here in this country.
So far, I don't see anybody who's got a plan to do that, so I don't think anybody's in danger of any world government.
What I'm for is freedom.
I'm for freedom, ladies and gentlemen.
Just as the people in the Thirteen Colonies in the beginning of this country said, sure, yeah, it's okay if we can figure out how to bring the rest of this continent into our union.
It's okay with me if we can figure out how to bring the rest of the world into this union, if we can do it preserving freedom for everybody in this world, and in particular for those who have it and have fought for it diligently for well over 200 years and certainly should not be giving it up.
We got together with Doyle Chamley, who was the promoter of that event.
He was a really bright young man, very intelligent, very nice young man.
And we're trying to work something out.
We may just, and again, we're doing this on a wing and a prayer, knowing that it's the right thing to do.
Doyle and I are going to put the Worldwide Freedom Radio Network together With a 50,000 watt FM station.
And then from there we hope we can expand to more stations across the country.
And I'm talking about regular big time broadcasting stations.
We don't know if we can do this.
We think we can.
We have found that it's not as difficult as we thought.
And so we're going to explore that.
We may need some help from you if you want to be a part of this and if you want to see this grow across the country.
We could create an independent network that will, bar none, be better than anything that's available to the American people.
So, once again, we're going to stick it out over the cliff and see if we float or we fall.
If we're doing the right thing, then God will provide and we'll float.
If not, then we're going to fall.
That's just the way it is.
But even if we fall, we can always back up and regroup and go the right way.
So those are the immediate, and I mean immediate, plans that we're going to try to develop.
I'm still just absolutely amazed that we have made it five years Starting off just as a, throwing this thing up on a satellite, not even thinking that there was one person listening to us, and then eventually going to five nights a week, worldwide, on some of the biggest shortwave stations in the world, and on satellites, several different satellites, and then developing into a network of over 700 FM stations across the nation and around the world.
And on still again on shortwave WRMR and now expanding beyond that into major broadcasting stations across the country.
I think that we can really do some big things and I think that if we continue to fight in this manner, if we continue to document the truth And stick with the truth and not get sidetracked by all the detractors and the looky-loos and the jealous people and those who want to knock us down and destroy us because we're pinging against their agenda or we've exposed their lies.
I think that we can do some great things.
Not just things, but some great things.
And I think we can do it together.
and i think we have to do it together. One of the things that i found in putting together
CAGI and the intelligence service is that it's real easy
to find people who want to join uh... most of them want to join for the benefits of joining
not in order to work and uh...
and uh...
you know you know do something Thank you.
They want to get some benefits.
Everybody's always looking for a handout, a benefit, something cheaper, 10% off, 20% off, whatever.
And that's not to say that there are not people There have been a lot of those people.
There have also been a lot who don't.
They're just joiners.
But the biggest problem, folks, is in finding leaders.
helped us tremendously over the years. There have been a lot of those people.
There have also been a lot who don't. They're just joiners.
But the biggest problem, folks, is in finding leaders. Leaders. People who
want to come in and take part of the leadership load and run with it.
it.
Not come in and try to take over the leadership or change everything, but to help us to really shoulder part of the load and work with other people To help them learn how to do what they're doing and make it all work.
That's been the most difficult thing of all.
The leaders that we do find, eventually, after a while, I don't know what happens to them, they drop by the wayside.
There have always been a core group of people who never quit, never fall by the wayside, Never give up, never whine, never cry, and just keep trudging along.
And throughout the history of the world, that's the way I guess it's always been.
And I guess that's never going to change.
It just seems to be a part of human nature.
So, you know, I fought that for a while and tried to overcome it.
I think I've become comfortable with that now.
I don't think I'm going to let it bother me anymore.
I'm going to take the ones that we've got.
I'm tremendously thankful for them and I'm going to help them all I can and we're going to work toward our common goal, our agenda if you will, which is freedom for everybody.
We don't care what race, what religion, what place of ancestral origin anybody came from or what country they live in or anything.
We're interested in freedom.
Freedom.
And that's what we're going to promote on this broadcast.
That's what we're going to promote in our organizations.
That's what we're going to promote in the Worldwide Freedom Radio Network.
That's what we're going to write about.
That's what we're going to try to instill in others.
And we're just never going to give up.
Never.
Never ever.
And we know there will be people who come and go.
And people who come in and will take a little bit of the load for a little while and then they will move on to something else.
And we know that there will be people who will come and stay forever as long as they get some benefit from it.
But we're not going to get anything from them.
And we know there's going to be some people who come in and understand the whole process of what we're doing and they're going to work and contribute and help with this and we're going to do great things together.
And we know there's always going to be a very small percentage who will shoulder a part of the leadership load and will help tremendously along the way.
And to those people I am sincerely In fact, all of the people who have helped and who have really worked and performed and produced and led in any capacity whatsoever, I'm eternally grateful and so very proud of each and every one of you.
For all of you who are coasting And are just there claiming to be for freedom and for, you know, doing things, but never do.
I just hope that someday you wake up and realize that that never works.
You know, you're just not with the program, if you know what I mean.
New stations coming online, joining us all the time.
New affiliate station.
We stopped counting at 700 and we're not counting anymore.
And for those of you who may be new affiliates, if you would like, please send us a postcard and tell us where you're at, what your frequency is, how far out you get from your transmitter and all that kind of stuff so that we'll know.
And that's just so that we have some idea of who you are and where you are.
And occasionally people call in and want to know if any of our affiliates have given us
permission to give out their frequency so that they can find a station to listen to.
So the more of you we have, the more people we can help find a station in their area.
Also, WRMI tells me that the new antenna should be coming online sometime this month.
If not, it'll be certainly in the first couple of weeks of June.
But they're, you know, still striving for this month.
And when it comes online, the coverage will extend tremendously.
And the reception will be much, much better everywhere, as a matter of fact.
So, those are just some of the things that That I've been thinking about recently and you know I thought about preparing some fantastic music intro and really doing a bang up whiz bang birthday celebration broadcast.
But decided at the last minute not to do that.
I'm truly amazed that we've made it this far.
And that we're not just a broadcast, but now have expanded into a network.
And are going to go farther than that.
Like I said, I don't know if we can do it.
We don't have any money.
We never have had any money.
And it takes a tremendous amount of money.
But whenever we've wanted to do something and it has been right, somehow, in some way, it has always been made available to us.
As you all know, we recently lost Swiss America Trading as a sponsor.
And by the way, I want to thank Craig Smith and Swiss America Trading for the four years that they sponsored The Hour of the Current.
The first year we sponsored ourselves.
How we did it, I'll never know.
And then he came along and wanted to back this broadcast along with several others.
We investigated them all and decided to go with Swiss America Trading and we've never regretted it.
I want to thank Craig and Swiss America Trading for the four years of sponsorship that they gave the hour of the time and all of the support and help that we received from them.
And I think it's just wonderful.
We were never looking for a sponsor.
We never anticipated it.
It's just like I said, you know, when we didn't have any money and the future of the broadcast was in question, there they were.
So, that seems to be how it works.
We've had some rough spots along the way.
Of course, we're always being sniped at by the enemies of freedom, socialists.
By people who call themselves patriots, who really are not.
By people who can't even accomplish one one millionth of what we accomplish here.
But know all the different ways to do it better, and how we're doing it wrong, and how it should have been done, and all of this other stuff.
And all I got to say to those people is, hey, produce!
Or get out of the kitchen.
Cook something or get out of the kitchen.
Leave us alone.
If you're not doing it, then you have no right to tell us how to do it or how we can do it the way that you would rather us be doing it.
We're struggling all the time.
I am so amazed that we have done anything with the very little that we have had over all these years.
I'm just blown away.
And you know, for the last couple of months, I wasn't sure that we were going to make it to our fifth anniversary.
That's how amazed I am.
And for the last few months, folks, I have been up against the wall so hard.
And I have been wound up so tight.
And we have been so needful of not just money, but all of our computers broke down at once.
It's just tremendous how people have helped.
A couple in Texas sent us a brand new computer and a monitor which pulled us out of that hole and enabled us to get back online.
So we're very thankful to them.
Just trying to do everything to get Veritas back in print.
You have no idea the amount of work that we do here.
And for so many months I was working like from, you know, early in the morning until, you know, in the wee hours of the morning and trying to catch, you know, three or four hours of sleep and then do it all over again.
I think I was wound up so tight, folks, that I was ready to explode like a volcano.
And on a couple of occasions I did.
And luckily, I think I was right in doing it.
But be that as it may, I don't like being that wound up.
I don't like exploding like that.
And I don't like being pushed to the limit like that.
After we went to Porterville, we stopped on the way back, and I just fell into exhaustion.
Total exhaustion.
I slept for two days and two nights.
Didn't eat anything.
I drank some water, but that's it.
I was just totally gone.
My body could not function anymore.
Then when I got done with that rest, I felt great.
And I feel greater, better now than I felt in several years to tell you the truth.
My body just said no more.
No more.
You've got to rest.
And it refused to function.
And so it went to sleep for 48 hours.
I slept.
And I think Annie was amazed because she's never seen me do that before.
Little Allison at the same time took down Ill.
Pooh got a little sick and there we stayed.
We stayed there.
It wasn't planned.
We stayed there until we all recuperated and then came home.
So, you know, I foresee a lot better things happening I foresee the best conference we've ever had in our history this year.
I foresee a complete reorganization of CAGI and the Intelligence Service.
I see the beginnings of a new press organization called the Independent Press Club, which will have nothing to do with the Family Trusts.
It will be a membership organization for anybody involved in publishing independent of the establishment press.
We don't care what you print.
We believe in freedom of expression, freedom of speech.
So if you're involved in any of those activities, you might want to send us a letter and find out how you can join the
Independent Press Club and get involved in having a bigger voice across this
country in what we do.
I foresee an awful lot of things beginning to happen.
I also foresee me giving up a lot of the burden that I've been carrying because I think that some other people should
be sharing that.
I'm tired of carrying most of the load.
I don't carry the full load, there's other people who carry the load with me, but I carry most of it.
And I'm really tired of that.
I think I deserve a rest.
I think I need a rest.
If I don't need a rest, if I don't take a rest, if I don't stop this insane work schedule of mine, then I may find myself permanently out of action.
And I don't want that to happen.
Because by and large, folks, I'm not trying to toot my own horn.
This is true.
This is a true statement here, and you better listen to it very closely.
I'm the only one on the air, I'm the only voice in this country that is truly fighting for the freedom of every single individual in this country without some stupid, insane agenda that's hidden, concealed, that's going to pop up and smack you in the face sooner or later.
There isn't anybody else out there doing it.
There is no one who has researched what's happening in this country deeper and better than I have.
There's no one who understands their symbology, their hidden language, and their plan better than I do.
So I can't just back out of this and disappear.
I can't allow that to happen.
But at the same time, I can't continue this insane work schedule that I've been involved in.
For all of this time, I've got the farm, some of it out.
And if any of you are interested in helping with that, I'd be certainly happy to hear from you.
We especially need station chiefs across the country, people who are willing to work with other people and help them do their job and lead instead of do everything all by yourself.
That's not leadership.
That's not leadership.
You're not doing other people a favor when you do that.
That's why I established this system so that we could have people who could all contribute and then have a central person who could help those people.
My job was to help the station chiefs, whose job was to help the people under them, and then we could all work together.
It's very seldom worked that way, I've got to tell you.
So anyway, if you're interested in helping out with this and taking some of the burden and running with it, I would certainly be interested in hearing from you.
And once again, I'm just absolutely blown away.
I'm amazed that we've made it five years with the hour of the time, that we have a worldwide radio network, that we have way over 700 FM stations carrying our programming.
That we are now in negotiations to Bring in a 50,000 watt FM station that will carry the programming of the Worldwide Freedom Radio Network 24 hours a day.
And so many other things that, you know, I think I need to go up on the mountain and sit down and just think about all of this for a little bit and make sure that it all comes together because it's so important for all of us.
And if I've burdened you with this monologue for the past hour, I sincerely apologize for that.
But I didn't want to make this a big, big, you know, showy ego thing because it's really not.
We barely made it.
And out of all of the people involved in this, I know that more than anybody.
And I appreciate the fact that we're here.
at the five-year mark and that there are many reasons and many times when that could have been rendered impossible.
So from the bottom of my heart and from the bottom of the hearts and minds of all of the people involved in making the Hour of the Time and the Worldwide Freedom Radio Network possible and making CAGI and the Intelligence Service possible in making it work. We want to thank all of those
sincerely who have contributed in any way over the years that has made this a
successful venture.
And we hope that many of you will enter into a partnership with us to make it
profitable for all of us and I'm not talking about money.
I'm talking about profitable in that it serves our best interest, and our best interest, ladies and gentlemen, is freedom for the next five years and beyond.
Good night, and God bless each and every single one of you.
Happy trails to you until we meet again.
Happy trails to you, keep smiling on the way.
Who cares about the clouds when we're together?
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather.
Happy trails to you.
Tell me me again.
this is the voice of freedom I am the voice of freedom
I am the voice of freedom I am the voice of freedom
