Pandemic Threats

| Can you explain a little bit more the black swans? | |
| The black swans, epidemics, pandemics. | |
| We've got a taste of it in the Ebola in Liberia and West Africa and how it was devastating to those people. | |
| Well, just imagine if one came to this country. | |
| You know, we think our CDC is so good and they'll detect things. | |
| But as you mentioned pastor with the immigration issue, we aren't vetting people that come across the border. | |
| They're bringing all sorts of diseases. | |
| And there's a chance. | |
| I don't know how big or how small, but there's a chance we could face a pandemic. | |
| We could easily see something like the European Union fall, the Euro fall. | |
| That would cause the collapse of a major world currency which would have ripple effects across all markets and all financial institutions. | |
| We could easily see something like a solar flare that could destroy all the electronics in the world. | |
| Much like an EMP, an EMP is a real possibility here. | |
| You mentioned the satellite going over above the United States. | |
| Given what Iran, given what the Russians, frankly, are doing, there are things that are happening today that I go in here that you'd read a little about, but I go into a lot more detail. | |
| These are real threats. | |
| This isn't 20, 30 years ago. | |
| What happened in the 1950s under Dwight Eisenhower? | |
| General Eisenhower says, you know, as the new president of the United States, we're facing 172 Russian divisions in Western Europe. | |
| They're going to invade. | |
| They're going to take over the world. | |
| Well, he said, we don't want to afford this to be able to fight against that. | |
| We can't match them man for man. | |
| So he started a nuclear arsenal. | |
| And it took the Russians 20 years to catch up. | |
| And that's what we call the offset one strategy. | |
| The offset two strategy, we tried to overcome their nuclear arsenal with technology, cruise missiles, precision-guided things, stealth fighters, and so forth. | |
| Well, they have just now started to catch up on all that. | |
| We are starting the third offset strategy now. | |
| And that blows my mind because these are the very things I talk about in future war. | |
| You know, the cyborg soldiers, certainly the cyber network. | |
| What are you saying? | |
| Cyborgs? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Part human, part machine. | |
| Wow. | |
| Is that coming? | |
| Yes. | |
| Is that real? | |
| Yes. | |
| Are they working on that technology now? | |
| Yes. | |
| Not just us, but the Chinese and the Russians. | |
| And it's a capability that started back, you know, and then we, General Paul Gorman went to an organization, a secret organization that is called DARPA at the Pentagon, and he said, we need soldiers that can, you know, are no longer weaklings or fearful on the battlefield. | |
| So you start to mess with their bodies and you start to mess with their brains. | |
| And you can either do it robotically through artificial intelligence or you can do it using the human and adding features to them. | |
| An exoskeleton, you can have a climatic system. | |
| You can give them automatic weapons that you think about and then they fire. | |
| We are working on all sorts of technologies. | |
| It's not just us, like I said. | |
| And the difference between us and them, it was brought up by the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs just a week ago. | |
| And he said, you know, I am concerned about the use of artificial intelligence because I want a human in the decision loop on whether or not they're going to kill somebody or something. | |
| And the Chinese and the Russians won't do that. | |
| We want to do that, but we're all working on the same technologies. | |
| So that technology is very real, and it is growing. | |
| And I, you know, back, it looks like about a year and a half, we're going to come up with something called TALOS, which is the first generation of the cyborg, which we are already working with the Special Operations Command. | |
| They're going to have some soldiers that will wear this outfit that will give them capabilities to lift larger weights and to run much faster. | |
| And that's just the beginning because we're going to eventually have a ballistic capable, you know, taking a 50-caliber round in the chest and surviving. | |
| It will let off all sorts of things into the bloodstream in case you're wounded to stop the hemorrhaging. | |
