Well, this is Jim Fetzer, your host on authentic news right here on RBN Live this 16th, 14th day of January, 2026, with a breaking news story.
I mean, it's soul breaking.
I'm just adding it now.
Reuters, U.S. military action against the Iran regime may start within the next 24 hours.
I don't like the thought of it.
I think that's absolutely horrific.
But let's see what Gateway Pundit has to say about it.
momentarily.
Here it is.
Here it comes.
Reuters.
U.S. military action against the Iranian regime may start within the next 24 hours.
Many of us have been very concerned about this.
According to Reuters, U.S. military action may begin within the next 24 U.S. personnel have been advised to leave the U.S. military's Al-Uded Air Base in Qatar by Wednesday night.
By Wednesday night, that would be tonight.
Al-Udad Air Base is the Middle East's largest U.S. military base, housing around 10,000.
The Iranians declared if they're attacked, they will take out American bases in the Middle East.
And I have no doubt about their ability to do it or their determination should the United States attack again.
Reuters said two European officials said the military action may start within the next 24 hours.
U.S. diplomats were told to leave the base.
An estimated 2,000 anti-regime protesters were reportedly killed this week by the blue Islamic regime during the control protest, continued protest against the Ayatollah's government.
That, I guarantee you, is not true.
They may have had to crack down on protests, but the protests were engineered, manufactured.
This is a classic U.S. Mossad color revolution attempt in this case, intended to give Trump a quote pretext for invading Iran on behalf of the Iranian people when it has not a damn thing to do with the Iranian people.
This is all for Israel.
Meanwhile, we have another report.
Why Iran is suddenly here's how I eat low-carb, high-protein meals every day.
These are my lunches this week.
Eating carnivore or keto isn't cheaper fast.
So have you heard the news that American B-52 bombers just landed in Qatar?
It looks like the Middle East is standing on the edge of a massive, historic explosion.
Everyone is talking about zero hour and the start of a devastating, all-out war.
Stay with me to find out why Iran has suddenly shut down its entire airspace.
It is no longer just rumors.
American fuel tankers have anchored right near Iran.
Reports indicate that several massive tankers have arrived at the Al-Udaid airbase in Qatar.
This means they are prepping fighter jets for very long and heavy combat missions.
Even strategic B-52 bombers are sitting on the runway, waiting for the final order.
Even stranger, another tanker was flying at a very low altitude towards Iraq today.
At the same time, US spy drones are circling like eagles over the Persian Gulf.
They have even approached Iranian airspace and are constantly patrolling the borderlines.
It feels like they are scanning every single movement, moment by moment, for an attack.
The scarier news is that the situation inside the US itself is not normal.
Three nuclear command and control aircraft took to the skies simultaneously over America today.
These birds are designed specifically to manage nuclear wars and extreme crisis situations.
Their circling in the sky means the Pentagon is preparing itself for the worst scenario.
Now, let's see what the Israelis are saying.
They believe we reached zero hour.
Zero hour is the moment when diplomacy ends and the shooting finally begins.
Intelligence sources say that the United States is scheduled to start this massive operation.
Of course, the start might not be with bombs, but with something else entirely.
There are many theories, but the most likely is a cyber attack comes first.
A paralyzing strike on infrastructure to blind Iran's defense systems completely before the bombs.
After that, it will be time for physical war and heavy aerial bombardments.
The main goal seems to be eliminating key figures and decapitating the command system.
When I say decapitation, I mean a very broad and simultaneous assassination operation.
The Americans might want to target the regime's leaders in the very first hours.
This is exactly the scenario that many military analysts are currently afraid of happening.
There were rumors Tel Aviv shelters opened, but they quickly denied that specific report.
But don't think Iran is sitting and watching.
They have become intensely active.
Iran has entered a security phase called total sovereign quarantine by the military.
This status is usually only declared when the threat of assassinating leaders is serious.
It means the Iranian intelligence system has also smelled blood in the atmosphere today.
The first sign of this fear is the flight ban over Jamaran and Tehran.
Jamaran is the political beating heart and residence of the leader of the Islamic Republic.
It is the central command center and all war orders are issued from there.
Closing the sky over this area means they expect a direct hit on leadership.
It is not just Jamaran.
All of Tehran is locked down within 50 miles.
They have ordered that no civilian aircraft have the right to fly in this zone.
Air defense systems are set to the most sensitive mode to shoot anything down.
This means the capital of Iran has practically turned into a military war garrison.
Maribad Airport and Imam Khomeini Airport have cancelled flights until further notice is given.
Imagine two main airports closing down.
This is no joke, my friends.
Passengers are stranded, but the government's priority is securing the sky against attacks.
Any flying object that is not identified will be destroyed immediately by defenses.
Now, let's go south.
In Bandar Abbas, the situation is just as red.
The IRGC Navy Headquarters, which controls the Persian Gulf, is now a no-fly zone.
This is where commanders plan for closing the Strait of Hormuz during conflict.
They know that if war happens, the Gulf is the first naval battlefield.
The next sensitive point is Simnan, where Iran's advanced radars are currently stationed.
It is said that high-frequency radars for detecting ballistic missiles have been powered on.
These radars are tasked with tracking Israeli Jericho missiles while they are in the air.
Activating these sites means Iran is expecting a rain of missiles from the enemy.
It is interesting to know that all these strange events happened in 24 hours.
Of course, they were ready before, but now the alert level has peaked.
Iran was checking its infrastructure daily, but now the story is totally different.
It seems they have received precise intelligence regarding the probable time of an attack.
Our analyst says Iran has entered the terrifying silence before the storm phase.
All defense protocols are active and fingers are placed on the triggers of heavy weapons.
This silence shows Iran has prepared itself for an all-out war.
It is no longer about deterrence, it's about survival and fighting to the last breath.
In Iraq, the Americans are not idle either, and suspicious movements are reported.
Unknown cargoes are being moved, which are likely support equipment for the drones.
The sky of Iraq is full of spy birds looking for their targets.
Iraq has always been the backyard of conflicts, and this time is no exception.
Rest assured, for now, there is no news of a ground war or infantry.
The White House only sent a cryptic message saying, God is with our army.
A ground invasion of Iranian soil in these conditions is not logical or possible.
Modern warfare today is a war of missiles, drones, and precise airstrikes.
By putting these puzzle pieces together, we see the situation is moving towards war.
We may not know exactly when or how, but the gears are moving.
The atmosphere is so inflamed that a small spark can burn everything down.
Diplomats have given up hope, and now it's the general's turn to enter.
Israelis are being clever, saying, we have decided not to act for now.
They want to pretend that America is the only party fighting the Islamic Republic.
Maybe they want to pull their feet out to pay a lower cost.
But we all know that ultimately the fate of Tel Aviv and Washington is linked.
But Iran is not fooled by these diplomatic words and media games today.
Tehran's decision is firm.
If the first missile hits, we will target Israel.
It doesn't matter if the attack is from America or anyone else.
They want to strike the initial blows so heavily that the enemy is shocked.
A confident report from the Mossad network has leaked, and hearing it is interesting.
They say Trump gave a serious warning to Netanyahu about regime change in Iran.
He said, if you drag us into this war, the story gets complex.
Trump wanted to ensure Israel is ready to pay the heavy costs of battle.
Trump has washed his hands of it, saying the responsibility lies with you.
War with Iran is not a picnic.
It has terrible human and financial costs.
Israel must be prepared for its cities to be under the guard's missile reign.
Enduring Iran's retaliatory strikes is not something that can be easily ignored.
Whether Trump gave a warning or not, Iran has no choice but to react.
An attack on Iranian soil automatically drags Israel into the middle of the mess.
The Islamic Republic is forced to show deterrence with force for its own survival.
This time is not like previous times, and it will not be a joke.
Whether Iran's air defenses can stop the wave of American attacks is unclear.
On paper, everything is ready, but the real battlefield has a different story.
We must see if Russian and Iranian tech can survive against the West in practice.
We will understand the answer to this question only after the first shots start.
Friends, we are monitoring this extremely sensitive situation moment by moment for you.
Any new news that breaks, I will immediately make a video and publish it.
Write your comments.
Do you think the war will start tonight or not?
Take care of yourself.
I think the war will start tonight.
And under circumstances like this, facing imminent threat of attack, Iran actually has the right of a preemptive strike against the American bases.
Look, when we bring our B-52s over all the way to Qatar, we are serious.
This is for real.
And my concern is what kind of laser-borne weaponry, what kind of satellite-borne weaponry may deploy.
We notice in Turkey we had some very unusual weapons that were used against Maduro's guards.
They may have been sonic.
More likely, they were electromagnetic, but they were devastating.
I'm terribly worried.
I do believe Iran is massively prepared for conventional warfare, but I'm concerned too that it may be the U.S. is going to deploy even methods that are illegal under international law.
Trump has shown he doesn't give a damn about international law.
We even have a report of a new plan to build a $2 billion Israeli tank production facility in Gaza.
$2 billion.
Of course, it's going to be financed by you and me, by the American taxpayer.
I think this is a situation where Iran, even though it is of the highest moral character and does not want to respond unless it is hit first, ought to contemplate the prospect of a preemptive strike.
I believe the circumstances warrant it.
That is morally, politically, and militarily justified.
And were I in a position to advise the Iranian regime, I would recommend doing it.
And that, I believe, is the most likely prospect for Iran to survive with far less damage to its population than to its infrastructure.
Trump has shown signs of dementia.
It's a kind of frontal temporal cortex that leads to bad judgment, a loss of empathy.
I discussed it in some detail with a show on the raw deal earlier today with Russ Winter and Joaquina Goov and Paul from California, and I'm telling you.
Trump appears to be suffering from this form of dementia, which is precisely the sort of circumstance that could put us into exactly this situation.
Wow.
Meanwhile.
Taking a page from the Ukraine-Russia war.
A surviving member of Maduro's security team says they were overwhelmed by swarms of drones had destroyed air defenses and just clogged up the airspace.
The Navy has been testing locust, low-cost UAV swarming technology, which you see here.
These launch boxes can fit on just about any ship.
And of course, trying to bring down hundreds of drones is very problematic.
Taking a page from the Ukraine-Russia war, a surviving member.
Here you go.
Meanwhile, the U.S. was involved in financial sabotage of Venezuela before we undertook our invasion.
Here's a discussion about it.
A form of ketamine was recently approved by the FDA for depression.
Ketamine.

It was hard to get out of bed today.
Yeah.
You have a flu.
I hope you don't have this influenza like the one I described going around our house.
Everyone is talking in New York State.
That's not really getting us there.
Meanwhile, here's a nice one.
The U.S. should have kidnapped Netanyahu instead of Maduro, according to a Pakistani official.
Israeli prime minister is the worst criminal of humanity, said the Pakistani Defense Minister.
Washington should order his military to capture P.M. Benjamin Netanyahu and prosecute him in any of its courts at Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaji Hasof.
He condemned the U.S. Abbe in Venezuela, describing the capture of President Maduro as a kidnapping, said such an action would be justified, carried out against Israel.
After the raid a week ago, the U.S. government charged Maduro with narcotic trafficking.
Allegation he consistently designed and I had appear to be complete fabrications, saying Washington's actions are aimed at seizing his country's natural resources rather than upholding the law.
Indeed.
U.S. actions open up Pandora's box by giving legitimacy to an approach that was highly controversial in the past, Ashes told Pakistani broadcaster GOTV in an interview earlier this week, the world order is collapsing.
The defense minister warned adding that what Washington did was not a good thing to do.
There's one person in the world who deserves a treatment.
If there were one person in the world who deserves such treatment, that would be Netanyahu, as if clarified, calling the Israeli leader the worst criminal of humanity and pointing to the operation in God.

Look at it as an incentive.
Number three, don't buy its paper pretenders.
We talked about that a lot.
Buy gold.
Buy the real thing in the form of coins and bullion.
Fourth, don't fall prey to glitzy television or Facebook ads.
Do your due diligence instead.

Multiple reports following the stories we've already been covering.
Terrifying eyewitness reports of mystery weapon use in Venezuela.
Mass bleeding and vomiting.
Trump sonic weapon rocks Venezuela during Maduro capture.
The top secret sonic weapon Trump used to make Maduro's military vomit blood.
200 killed instantly.
Well, take a look at this.
I'm not sure it's sonic.
I suspect it may be electromagnetic or micro waves.
Your buddy gets hard, but goes soft fast.
That's your body rejecting the erection.
Your equipment r- Wow.
Hey, Grok, put him in a bikini.
What's up, guys?
It's Benny.
Nicolas Maduro was camping out in a bunker in the most secure military facility that was guarded by Chinese and Russian technology.
They had high-end stuff.
They spent billions of dollars and he had 300 security guards.
Nicholas Maduro was not just standing in the middle of a Walmart parking lot.
He was secure and he was within feet of a safe room, yet he was blackbagged and chucked in the back of a helicopter like it was nothing and no Americans lost their lives.
They barely even got shot at.
How the hell did that happen?
Well, the American military executed the single most sophisticated and strategic special forces strike with the assistance of futuristic weapons that have never been used before on the battlefield.
U.S. used mystery, secret weapons that brought Venezuelan soldiers to their knees vomiting blood and bleeding out of their eyes and noses and ears.
Witness account is horrifying.
Let's read it and then we'll talk about what this weapon actually is and what the consequences of this will be.
This account from a Venezuelan security guard to Nicolas Maduro, absolutely chilling, as explains a lot about what the tone across Latin America suddenly changed.
Get a little of this.
And this, by the way, in case you're wondering if somebody's just making this up, this is translated directly from the security guard.
I'll play the Spanish version of this translated as well.
But this is just transcribed Spanish language interview of Nicolas Maduro's one of his top security guards or surviving security guards because the rest of them are dead.
On the day of the operation, we didn't hear anything coming.
We were on guard.
All of a sudden, our radar systems shut down without explanation.
The next thing we saw, drones, lots of drones flying over our positions.
We didn't know how to react.
So what happened?
How was the main attack?
Security guard.
After those drones appeared, some helicopters arrived, but there were very few.
I think barely eight helicopters.
From those helicopters, soldiers came down, but a very small number, maybe 20 men.
Those men were technologically very advanced.
They didn't look like anything we fought against before.
And the battle?
Yes, but it was a massacre.
We were hundreds, but we had no chance against 20 men here.
Listen, they were shooting with such precision and speed, it seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute.
We couldn't do anything.
300 rounds per minute.
They had a mini-gun.
It was the drones.
I'm about to get ahead of myself.
Here we go.
And your weapons, didn't they help?
Security guard, no help at all because it wasn't just the weapons.
At one point, they launched something.
I don't know how to describe it.
It was a very intense sound wave.
Suddenly, I felt my head was exploding from the inside.
We started bleeding from the nose, vomiting, blood.
We fell to the ground, unable to move.
Interviewer.
And your comrades, did they manage to resist?
Security Guard?
No, not at all.
Those 20 men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us.
We had no way to compete with their technology and with their weapons.
I swear, I've never seen anything like it.
We couldn't even stand up after the sonic weapon or whatever it was.
So do you think that the rest of the region would think twice before confronting the Americans?
Without a doubt, says the guard.
I'm sending a warning to anybody who thinks they can fight the United States.
They have no idea what they're capable of.
After what I saw, I have never wanted to be on the other side of that again.
They are not to be messed with.
Interviewer, now that Trump said Mexico is on the list, do you think the situation will change in Latin America?
Security Guard, definitely.
Everyone is already talking about this.
No one wants to go through what we went through.
Now everyone thinks twice.
What happened here is going to change a lot of things, not just Venezuela, but throughout the region.
Well, I'm worried about the same thing happening with regard to Iran and whether in some ways, maybe the ob against Maduro was a warning to Iran, but it's very, very serious, no doubt.
Here's that point I was making.
U.S. Army documents reveal $2 billion plan to build Israeli tank plant amid the Gaza war.
American tag players on the verge of bankrolling a massive expansion of Israel's armored vehicle production, directly fueling the very machines used in a war that has drawn global condemnation and accusations of genocide.
Internal U.S. Army docks reveal plans to finance a new Israeli tank plant with up to $2 billion, a move that would bore gasoline on the fire of a brutal conflict and dramatically contradict Washington's occasional rhetoric urging restraint.

So Exxon CEO Darren Woods is saying he wants what his company always sought in Venezuela but couldn't get post-Chavez.
Laissez-faire laws guaranteeing maximum foreign plunder without having to pay back into the state.
He is demanding full regime change.
See this clip.
With respect to Venezuela in particular, we have a very long history in Venezuela.
In fact, we first got into Venezuela back in the 1940s.
We've had our assets seized there twice.
And so you can imagine to re-enter a third time would require some pretty significant changes from what we've historically seen.
We've had our assets seized twice already.
Yeah.
I wonder why that is.
What hint are you not taking?
Being here in what is currently the state.
If we look at the legal and commercial constructs and frameworks in place today in Venezuela, today it's uninvestable.
Man, stealing and maintaining other people's resources is really tough, a difficult task.
We're sorry, Darren Woods.
Changes have to be made to those commercial frameworks, the legal system.
There has to be durable investment protections, and there has to be a change to the doesn't really sound like a free market this guy's spelling out, does it?
Sounds like a highly protectionist, government-subsidized market that helps capitalists stay solvent and afloat.
That's what it more so seems like.
But yet we have to praise the free market, guys.
This is just the free market doing its thing.
The hydrocarbon laws in the country.
We're confident that with this administration and President Trump working hand in hand with the Venezuelan government, that those changes can be put in place.
See, this is just case in point.
The people that talk about the free market, even they don't believe this shit.
They understand that it's centrally planned.
Let that be a word to the wise, you know?
Look at that clip.
That tells you everything.
They don't believe their own BS.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, wanted by the International Criminal Court for War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity, says he won't allow independent journalists into Gaza because he cares about journalists too much.
That's why he murders them senselessly.
And because Israel is still at war with Gaza.
One way of putting pressure on Hamas is for the world's press to report what's really going on there and to give body to the things you've been saying about what they're doing.
Why don't you allow international journalists into Gaza?
I think we do, but we could do more.
We probably should.
Not without being with the IDF.
Yeah, well, that's not an uncommon practice, but I can tell you one thing.
First of all, we don't want any journalists killed.
and some have been tragically killed because there's crossfire.
Could you say, definitively, that you would allow the- You did crossfire.
Crossfire, really?
They're out there slaughtering journalists in Gaza.
So he says they don't want any journalists killed.
They want them all killed.
They want them all dead.
Meanwhile, we have an Argentine journalist raking his silence about it.
We can't dismiss this as just another unhinged rant.
Trump is threatening to abolish voting by mail and Jerry May.
I'm here today with Sylvina Sernin Pensel.
She is an Argentinian journalist based out of New York.
We're here to discuss Israeli-Argentine-Argentina relations, how the new president and the new administration is affecting Argentina when it comes to Israeli policy and the censorship that we're seeing in Argentina as well.
Silvina, thanks so much for joining today.
It's my pleasure, Wally.
And let me tell you that we are absolutely saddened by the situation.
I don't know if your audience is familiar with where the wildfires are occurring.
It's the Patagonia region, world famous for its beauty, for its lakes, its mountains, its woods, its forest, its wooden areas with trees that are, you know, a zillion years old.
And so the fact that we are seeing those areas, particularly the province of Tobut, engulfed in flames and all the, you know, the firefighters, some of them are volunteer.
They don't receive any monetary compensation for their.
Let me just say, I was in Argentina in 2008 and 2009 giving lectures on JFK in 9-11.
And already the idea of Patagonia being a target of the Israelis to create a new Israel in Argentina was very much in public discussion.
And what appears to be the case is they feel that if they burn the land, and they would have to do that in a lot of development, they burn the land, they can get it at cheaper prices.
In other words, this is an operation to steal land.
I think we've seen it already in the Pacific Palisades, Paradise, California, Lahaina, Hawaii.
This is a standard mode of conducting business for the Israelis.
And it is a lush area, extraordinarily rich in resources, extraordinarily beautiful.
That appears to be what's going on.
Meanwhile, we have Trump declaring we'll do something about Greenland, whether they like it or not.
This is all very, very bad.
We have other stories about Chinese weaponry going into Venezuela, but you can see how much good it did.
Here we have Judge Napolitano, a lawless presidency from Amazon.com.
The United States invasion of Venezuelan kidnapping of Nicolas Maduro, the domestically recognized Venezuelan president, violated the U.S. Constitution and international law.
The Constitution made clear that only Congress can authorize a foreign invasion.
In the pre-World War II era, Congress declared war on countries that attacked the U.S. or were allowed with those that did.
And those declarations expired upon the surrender by legal authorities in the targeted countries.
In the post-9-11 era, Congress has chosen to authorize the use of military force without providing for a trigger that would terminate the authorization.
Indeed, just last month, Congress rescinded George W. Bush-era military authorization that had been used by President Barack Obama and Donald Trump to target groups not even in existence at the time of the authorization.
But as morally deficient as the authorizations were, they were at least constitutionally sound, as they were the product of presidential requests in congressional deliberation and authorizations.
We now know at least two of them were fraudulent.
The admin lied to Congress and to the United States, but at least it fomented debate and recognized its obligation under the Constitution and the U.N. Charter to seek approval before invading a foreign country.
Here we have more.
The Trump doctrine.
They have it.
We want it.
We take it.

Back when I was a young child, I used to enjoy watching any Saturday morning cartoons, and they were often quite amusing.
More decades have passed and I'd like to consider my memories a garbled, but I recall those cartoons occasionally featured a character called something like Ugh the Caveman.
Ugh was always casually dressed in a one-piece leopard suit sarong, walked around with a gigantic club slung over his shoulder.
Whenever he saw another caveman with something he wanted, he'd smash that fellow on the head with his club and take it.
This suggested the nature of business transactions in those prehistoric times.
President Donald Trump is quite a bit older than I.
Those cartoons had already been around for many years when I watched them, so he may have done the same as a child.
It's also quite possible his love for television cartoons remained strong even as he reached adulthood, as he might have been watching such cartoons at the age of 20 or 30 prior to his gradual shift to the far more sophisticated adult era pro-wrestling shows.
For whatever reason, it does seem that Trump's understanding of international relations derives from the lessons he had originally learned from old Ugg the Caveman.
I think that's an appropriate comparison.
Meanwhile, we have a congressman dropping a hammer on the Somali wharf welfare scandals on the floor house.
Here's how I eat low-carb, high-protein meals every day.
These are my lunches this week.
Eating carnivore or keto isn't cheap or fast.
Diversity is our strength.
The farmer keeps the gate open because it's good for us.
It's not safe for us in the wilderness.
The farmer's land is where we must, let's say, assimilate.
I can't wait to meet our new neighbors.
Close the gate, you morons.
I'm constantly asking who made the decision to bring Somalians into America?
Not just a few, hundreds of thousands of them.
And we explained that.
Has any politician ever stood in front of a microphone and said, here's why we're doing this.
Here's why this makes America better?
They can't.
Because it's indefensible.
Because if you look at the data, and Somalia, not only is it a failed state, not only is it the single number one worst country in the world to live in, based on the United Nations own study, it is also a nation that has very high coefficients of inbreeding, a lot of marriages or first and second cousin marriages, a lot of child brides, in complete and total Sharia law in the country,
secretarian and tribal violence, and an IQ that hovers somewhere around 70, which is the IQ of somebody who's mentally handicapped.
And so then you have to ask the question like, well, if you have a society whose main objective and career path is piracy, why would you ever bring a bunch of pirates into your own functional country?
Nobody ever explains these questions, but at the very least, they're being asked by politicians.
At the very least, we're starting to get these questions.
Brandon Gill of Texas asked this week in a clip that is stunning and is, well, I guess what Congress should be doing.
Lou.
Again, thank you for being here.
Let me ask you: does large-scale Somali immigration make Minnesota stronger or weaker?
Certainly stronger.
Certainly stronger.
Do you know what percentage of Somali-headed households in Minnesota are on food stamps?
No.
54%.
Do you know what that number is for native Minnesota-headed households?
Well, to be clear, a majority of those.
It's 7%.
There's a big difference between 54% and 7%, is there not?
Excuse me, sir.
Could I answer the question?
Let me move on.
We've got a lot of questions here.
What percentage of Somali-headed households in Minnesota are on Medicaid?
I don't know.
It's 73%.
Do you know what that number is for Minnesota native households?
Again, you're using the phrase Minnesota native households, but the number is 18%.
That's quite an astounding difference.
I think we would.
Can I answer the question, please?
Let me ask you one more and then we can go into that.
What percentage of Somali-headed households are on welfare in general?
I don't know.
It's 81%.
What about, let me just ask you, after 10 years of being in the United States, what percentage of Somali immigrant households are on, continue to be on welfare?
I don't know.
The number is 78%.
So even after 10 years, 78% of Somali immigrant households continue to be on welfare.
Do you know what that number is for native Minnesota-headed households?
Again, you're using the phrase- Non-Somali immigrant-headed households.
If I can just answer the question, when you're using the phrase native Minnesotans- The majority of Somali Minnesotans are as Minnesotan as any of us.
They were born in the United States.
It's only 8,000 of the 108,000 in Somalia.
Nevertheless, the welfare usage is astoundingly different.
Let me ask you again: does that make Minnesota stronger or weaker?
Again, I'd like the opportunity to answer the question here.
I think the answer is obvious.
This Somali stuff is just outrageous.
The scandal is enormous.
They're builting the American people.
And Minnesota authorities don't want to admit it.
Here's something I like, but it could have enormous ramifications.
President Trump to cut off all federal funding to sanctuary cities and states.
I think this is the right thing to do.
Here we have a report about it.
Starting February 1st, we're not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens and it breeds fraud and crime.
We're giving 90-day notices to places like California, Scott.
Right away, we're going to send out that notice.
Who would build a federal government as people poured into the state to send those people back because no country can afford to do it?
No country can afford to take in millions of people, pay for their education, their health care, their hospitals.
You just can't do it.
And we all have a heart.
You can't do it.
But many of those people are murderers.
They're people released from jails, prisons, mental institutions, insane asylums.
They're people that are drug dealers.
They're addicts.
Additionally, starting February 1st, we're not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens.
And it breeds fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come.
So we're not making any payment to anybody that supports sanctuary cities.
This is pretty clearly an historic move by Trump.
I think it's a good move to make, but I do think it's going to generate enormous resistance from the blue states and the extremists who want to have the migrants here because they beef up the Democrat voting rolls.
They keep more representatives in Congress.
And they ignore the fact that this is part of the clergy plan devised by a Jewish intellectual in the 1930s originally to plot European countries with African migrants to destroy their culture and their racial identity.
It's been adapted here in the U.S., not just from Africa, but from, I don't know, 100 different nations.
We have them here.
And it's well known from the Cloven Pivin study.
You cannot have a welfare state and open borders.
Otherwise, the economy is going to collapse.
Now, they wanted that to happen because they thought it would lead to rebuilding the United States closer to their egalitarian ideal where everyone has the same amount of everything regardless of their ability or contribution is pretty serious stuff, but it's happening.
I think Trump has done the right thing.
Meanwhile, here's the report.
Minnesota Somali community criminal network fraud may be the biggest fraud scheme in U.S. history.
Framed as the largest welfare fraud scheme in U.S. history, the massive increase in fraudulent Medicaid housing stabilization services claims related to autism and housing stabilization in Minnesota is largely attributed to Somali community actors.
I've been using the X39 LifeWave patches every day since December 2023.
The X39 patches help with pain relief and my strength and stamina.
Proper use of the X39 has been proven to significantly increase human GHKCU copper peptides in the body.
Increasing the human production of copper peptides has been proven to increase healthy stem cell activity.
Wear the X39 for 12 hours a day, giving yourself a 12-hour break before applying a new patch.
Do this for six to twelve months.
Continue daily use to maintain your health benefits and get regular checkups with your healthcare provider to track any internal progress you may not have noticed.
It's quite extraordinary to be able to use the same technology used by U.S. Navy SEALs.
The SEALs rely on life wave patches to accomplish their missions.

I'm the founder of Black Out Coffee, and I started Black Out because I really love coffee.
I've always loved coffee, and after traveling so much to Europe, South America, and trying so many different coffees that were so good.
And every time I came back to the U.S., I was so disappointed with the coffee.
So I figured that I had to do something about it.
The biggest difference is really on the beans and the roasting process, how we roast it, and how fresh it is.
The fresher the roast, the better the quality.
Here I like how all of the coffee is roasted within one to two days prior to being shipped.
So it literally gets to consumers' house within three to five days after being roasted.
If you like coffee, you have to try ours.
It's fresh roasted.
It's one of the best beans that we can get, and you will definitely see the difference.

ExtendoVite really works.
Just listen to what Wayne has to say.
I have been taking it for about two years, and I had really bad heart palpitations.
And since I've been taking it, I don't have any major episodes at all anymore.
I'm 76 years old, and I still play competitive basketball.
Of course, I've taken care of myself really good since I was 60, but Extendivite really helped the blood pressure, really helped the.
I used to get really bad episodes of heart palpitations just skipping beats and double beats.
But also, I'm going to tell you that I really appreciate your broadcast.
Just really refreshing.

Well, because of the breaking news about a potential attack by the U.S. and Israel on Iran, there are lots of stories I did not also cover.
One from Miles Mathis, who's taking a skeptical look at what's happened in Minneapolis, the title, Minneapolis Good Fake.
He raises a lot of interesting questions about the identity of this woman, Renee Nicole Good, or Renee Macklin Good, or other.
We do have a photograph of one bullet hole through the windshield.
He also notes how the license plate of the car she's driving is from Missouri.
Missouri.
What in the world is license plate doing from Missouri?
Now, the more I contemplate this controversial case, the more it appears to me both sides were at fault.
We discussed this yesterday in part, but she was blocking the roadway.
That was illegal.
That was improper.
When the ICE agents approached her and asked her, did I part a car?
She backed up and then drove off, even though there was an agent in front of her.
She at least bruised him, pushing him to the side.
He was super fast on the draw, I gotta say.
I do not believe she deserved to be shot, but I do believe she brought this on herself.
Her partner, her husband, also another woman, this is a gay relationship, said it was her fault, the partner's fault, that this happened because she had encouraged her to flee.
In any case, it's a messy one.
We'll no doubt be discussing it further during the second hour.

Well, welcome to the second hour of Authentic News right here on RBM Martin.
14 day January 2026.
Grim news and story important financially.
RBM financially is in dire straits.
We're about five grand in the hole to get back on track.
We they owe ourselves some back play, about three grand in bills.
If anyone can do anything to help RBN and keep us on the air, now is the time.
Meanwhile, we have several callers standing by.
Begin with Paul in New Jersey.
Paul, go right ahead, join the conversation, Paul.
Yeah, on Monday at the end of the show, Mr. Petzer, you had a fella saying, basically, it was kind of flipping, but he said, oh, what's the big deal if they're lesbian?
All right.
And so let me explain this to people why in a normal healthy society, you want to steer both sexes away from homosexuality.
All right.
For one, you know, when we tell homosexual people, hey, why don't you quit that and go get yourself married and have children?
That's a compliment.
You see, because when you tell somebody, you know, you should get married, that's like saying, go make copies of yourself.
In other words, I like your image or the way you look enough and the way you comport yourself enough.
But I think it would be good for society to make copies of yourself.
And as is, the only way in the current world to make a copy of yourself is through heterosexual reproduction.
Okay, so that's one reason.
So all these people who get like, oh, I'm all insulted when you tell me to get married or, oh, I'm insulted when you're telling people I should stop being gay and go, you know, get married.
It's a compliment.
We're urging these people to reproduce.
That's a compliment.
Telling people, oh, you shouldn't have children.
Now, that's a really big insult.
Anyway, so I went through, you know, by going to John Hopkins and Google AI, I asked some questions to both of them comparing lesbians in various studies with heterosexuals.
Now, we should keep in mind that many lesbians turn gay because they might have been abused or raped in an early stage, and then they just hate men and they're going to hate men their whole lives because they've been traumatized.
And so they turn to other women as like a safety net for security since they were abused by men.
So we understand that.
But now get this.
It is true.
24% of lesbian couples have children, while 38% of heterosexual couples have children.
So heterosexual couples have more children, right?
Lesbian couples, think of it.
You're taking two fertile women.
And generally, if they have children, they're going to have what?
A couple, one or two, right?
But that means for replacement reproduction, you need 2.1 children per couple.
So really, for a lesbian couple to maintain the population, they're going to have to have at least four children.
Paul, just interject.
Obviously, gay couples can't have any children.
So when you say these lesbian couples have children, you're talking about adoptees.
I mean, I'm a little baffled.
Artificial intimidation or IDF.
Okay.
I'm just kidding.
Okay.
Yeah.
With a turkey baser kind of thing.
You know, they joke about it with a turkey baster.
Anyway, here's another one.
Studies indicate that lesbian women report experience intimate partner violence at higher rates than heterosexual women.
So when it comes to domestic abuse, they have higher rates of domestic abuse than heterosexuals.
You know, you think you'd need a man to be physically abused, but it's not the case, right?
Lesbian and bisexual women drink more than heterosexual women and have a higher occurrence of alcohol-related problems.
Research has discovered higher rates of smoking, cocaine, and marijuana use among lesbian and bisexual women than heterosexual women.
Lesbian and bisexual women suffer from higher rates of obesity than heterosexual women.
Asking Google AI, do lesbians live shorter lives?
I got the following answer.
Yes, recent studies, including one from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health published in JAMA, indicate that lesbian women and sexual minority women overall experience higher rates of premature mortality, with one study finding lesbian women died about 20% sooner than heterosexual women, highlighting significant health disparities.
I asked Google AI, are there more lesbians in jail?
Yes, studies show lesbians and bisexual women are significantly overrepresented in jails and prisons compared to heterosexual women.
Okay, so you see, there's a lot of social pathologies associated with lesbianism.
Now, one might be one of these things, a chicken or the egg thing, but it doesn't matter.
The result is the same.
And so it's really an unhealthy lifestyle.
You don't want to steer women into it.
And you know how women, in my argument, I contend that women are more socially pressured than males are.
They're more herd-oriented.
And so I don't see why we as a culture should promote it, normalize, or make it seem like a healthy lifestyle.
And that goes for homosexual males also, when they live shorter lives in comparison with heterosexuals.
So really for the public health, you really don't want to promote homosexuality either among men or women.
That's my response.
I'm very unfamiliar with the statistics you're offering, but they are rather sobering.
And, you know, I'm a different strokes for different folks kind of guy.
You know, I don't want to interfere in anyone's personal decisions about their sex life.
But you are making observations that reflect how it impacts on the community, the larger community and population, in this case, of the United States.
So I appreciate all that, adding those elements of empirical data to the discussion.
Would you like to add a few further thoughts?
Well, I just, you know, we have to collectively, or as individuals, we kind of have to police our society, each one of us.
You know what I mean?
If you see somebody litter, you have to tell that person, hey, buddy, why do you throw that on the ground?
Right.
Yeah.
And so the same with trying to police people about these unhealthy lifestyles.
You know, it's like, hey, if you're going to, you know, indulge in these behaviors, it can cause this, this, and this.
You know, if you're going to the bathhouse, right, or you allow the bathhouse to continue and these parties to go on among the homosexual men, then people are surprised that we got AIDS or monkeypox.
Remember that monkeypox outbreak from three years ago?
Right.
And that's why really homosexuality should not be out in the open.
There's nothing to be proud about.
There's no child issuing from homosexual sex.
It doesn't really benefit the society.
And I would argue most cultures that tolerate homosexuality, that's an indicator of the end stage and the imminent decline of your culture.
And the people with the lower birth rates will get replaced with the people with the higher birth rates.
And Western style capitalism and immigration practices, as we've seen over the past 40 years, have basically caused the capitalists and the economist to promote replacement migration because the domestic birth rates are too low.
So promoting homosexuality is promoting lower domestic birth rates.
And this is something.
So if you want to keep your civilization going, you basically don't want to condone or promote homosexuality.
Very, very, very celebrated Paul.
Thank you for all of that.
I'm delighted to welcome back Layla from Canada.
Layla, join the conversation.
Yes.
Hello, Jim.
I wanted to compliment you on the way you responded to the description of the woman who was shot by an ICE agent when she was running him over.
You broke it down perfectly.
It's almost asking to be injured or killed or suicidal to actually challenge a federal official who is doing his or her duty.
That is an absurdity.
But in any case, the defender of her actions was someone calling from New York who rarely calls in and I suspect is one of those who gets the 7,000 shekels for calling in.
But there's another woman who calls in regularly who is always very aggressive and always ready to start a fight.
And on January 12th, she referred to herself and this other fellow as being the only ones who do not suffer from dementia.
Do you realize what that says about everyone else who listens to or calls into RBN, that we all have a mental or brain disorder, that we are all diseased except for this woman and her so-called admirer who is promoting her?
And there are those who say that they like the fact she's not into, she likes to use the academic jargon of paradigm.
Now you can interject that to give yourself some credibility, but the paradigm or the division of right-left Republican Democrat doesn't exist anymore.
We are a pluralistic society.
And yes, that person is not a Democrat or a Republican.
That person, she is an anarchist.
Does anyone remember the word anarchist?
You as a political philosopher know very well the ramifications of anarchy.
So what Paul was also saying is very accurate.
I will go back to the days of Pierre Trudeau when he legalized sodomy.
Sodomy in Canada used to be a federal crime if you were caught doing it.
And that is because of its endangerment to the public health.
Pierre Trudeau announced what happens in the nation's bedrooms is none of the government's business.
Well, the problem is the pathogens that reside in the anorectal area do not stay in the bedroom, especially if there's oral contact.
When they go to a restaurant, they are then implanting whatever pathogens are in their mouth onto cups and glasses and cuddlery that people use.
They are spreading it.
I remember a story where in Vancouver, there was a cafe frequented by gay men or faggots, if I may use my favorite term, where they, where meningitis was being spread.
That is a fatal disease of the meninges that is supposed to protect the brain.
That story lasted for one day and then it disappeared.
That is because restaurants do not sterilize their cups, their glasses, and their cuttlery.
So pathogens that are easily resistant to normal treatment are going to be spread to the general innocent public.
And remember when the blood supply was endangered by those who had contracted HIV, some of them innocently, not by engaging in perversion?
I'm sorry, there is a logic to nature.
Nature made men and women.
You don't have to believe in God and God created man.
And then as his helper, God created women.
Never mind that.
Let's just go with evolution.
Every species has a male and female, except for the occasional rarity where there might be an opposite function.
But the general norm is male and female.
Those who behave otherwise are deviant, perverse, and demented.
And that woman with her so-called husband telling her to defy this.
I'm sorry, if somebody comes to me speeding in their car, you think I'm not going to use anything in my power to stop them from killing me?
Even if the guy was not acting in his authority as a federal function authorized by the top upper levels, if ICE was not acting in his role, he was as an individual defending himself from someone who was trying to run him over.
So you can throw away all your legalese.
It's normal.
It's common law that when someone is attempting to kill you, you can use the same amount of force that is necessary as the force that's being exercised against you.
If it's potentially lethal, then you can use lethal force only while the act is being committed.
Unlike Israel, who seems to think that the idea of defending yourself goes on in perpetuity as long as you can kill anybody and everybody under a purported event that occurs on October 7th.
So I also want to thank Jim for his call, Jim from Michigan, for his call on Friday, for calling out the person.
He called out Renee.
I mean, let's just not pretend we don't know who we're talking about.
Jim and I think it's his brother John from Michigan, two very, very polite men who call in with interesting comments and they're always very courteous and they make relevant comments.
And I have to say that Michiganders are some of the nicest people I've ever known.
And I worked both in Marquette and in Grand Rapids.
Wonderful people, wonderful places.
And what I loved about Grand Rapids was the Tulip Festival.
It was called the Bible Belt.
People there were, and the Bible Belt, whether or not you want to consider, yes, the Bibles have been distorted, they've been rewritten, they've been redacted because we know who owns the printing presses and who owns the distribution systems.
So it is no longer God's word.
It is handwritten or published or printed digitally and distributed by those who have an interest in distributing it.
But the people who believe in the original basic tenets of religion, of Christianity, I really admire them.
Islam also, now they're a little too harsh on the women, but would you rather see a woman wearing a hijab or a grotesque woman running around in tight lycra, thinking that, you know, her big fat ball, sorry, I was just looking, I was in a store yesterday, looking to buy some ski clothing.
And there was a woman who was wearing, oh, these are called leggings.
And I looked at her and I thought, oh my God, has anyone told you that you really should not be wearing that?
But anyway, health is a public health is a matter of everybody's interest.
And homosexuality, whether it's lesbians or homosexual men, because of their oral anal contact, oral.
other growing contact, they do bring it out into the general public.
Never mind the use of, and in Canada, not only was Pierre Trudeau the first to make it legal under the norm that, oh, what happens in private is none of the public's business.
That's fine if it stays in private.
And you use surgical techniques to ensure sterility when you go out into the public.
You don't spread it to the public.
That is the problem.
And besides, then there's the social aspect, the destruction of the role of women.
Women were always the nucleus of our culture.
When women are degenerated, the whole culture goes down.
And it's fitted with Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, and all those other ugly Jewish women who were paid by the CIA to destroy the pride women took in being mothers and wives and being feminine.
And the first thing was, Ms., I still insist, even though my husband is dead, I still insist I am Mrs. You do not call me as Ms. And the whole argument that taking your husband's name is patriarchal.
Well, if you take your mother's surname, where did she get it?
From her father.
And where did her mother get it?
From her father.
Face it, nature dictates for a patriarchal society.
When men are honorable, society as a whole is protected by them.
So I think I've said far more than many people will like because there are too many who call in now in the objecting to patriarchy.
But I want to thank you, Jim, for your role in having clarified a situation that was distorted by those who opposed it.
And thank you for your call, Layla.
Much appreciated.
We look forward to the next.
You bet.
Take care, Jim.

He wants only rolling.
He got hair down to his knee.
Not to be a dope nothing.
Well, Paul and Leila have certainly given us a lot to think about regarding gay and lesbian sex.
As I said, I'm a different strokes for different folks kind of guy.
I don't have a concern about other people's sex life.
Layla is suggesting it as a ramification for public health.
I'm rather startled at the thought that restaurants might not be sterilizing their eating utensils, plates, glasses, all that.
That would be news to me.
I hope it isn't true.
But if she is correct, it's obviously a real issue.
I'd also like to add, I do seem to remember Renee saying something flippant about being the only ones who weren't demanded, but of course, she did not mean that literally.
That was just a, you know, humorous, intended to be humorous remark.
Meanwhile, we got Keith Rogers back.
Always glad to hear from Keith.
Join the conversation, my friend.
Yeah, good afternoon, James.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, very clearly.
Very clearly.
Okay.
Hey, a couple comments.
Your earlier show and your present one here.
I know a lot of stuff's in the news about the Somalians and stuff, and I want to confirm something Tom said down there in Florida there.
But first, there was some quotes there off a Huffington Post about Donald Trump.
One of his quotes was: When people wrong you, go after those people, because it's a good feeling and because other people will see you doing it.
I always get even.
And underneath that, it puts, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you.
And so, in lieu of that, when I was listening to your earlier show and all about the Somalians and stuff like that, you know, and which I realize there's a problem there, everyone does.
But when you realize that the United States sends $45 million a day to Israel for all these targeted countries like Somalia to take out, as General Wesley Clark said, these people, when Trump talks about sending these people home and stuff like that, one has to look at the humanities side of it and realize a lot of these people don't have homes to go to because Americans were too busy screaming, America, F yeah, you know,
as the U.S. military blew up their homelands.
And so this is just like the prodigal son coming home.
Anyway, in lieu of what Tom said here about these 1% loans, Tom is 100% correct.
And there's a caveat to that, though.
These loans are issued, guaranteed, granted by the Homeland Security.
And you can find these on findhelp.org.
They help you with green cards, citizenship, all this stuff like that.
This is your own government sabotaging your own culture.
And in lieu of that, there's a video on YouTube called Depopulation Bomb.
And it talks about when these foreigners come into your local areas.
The one they highlighted the most is the UK, where a lot of people sit around, they have a pint with their friends after work like that.
And because they become offensive to, say, the Muslims moving in, they close those, they close the churches, and then suddenly the call of prayer is being broadcasted because the church is bought up by whoever like that, you know.
But this is all part of cultural engineering, just like ICE.
They want you to accept expanded, I call it military operations.
Jackson Hinkle on YouTube brought out the fact that these guys were all being trained by the tiny hats.
Same thing with CRI training down in Las Vegas.
They train all U.S. law enforcement, police, all this stuff like that, you know.
But in the humanities side, there, these loans, of course, like that, they have to be paid back within a year.
They have 1% interest.
And the checks are all payable to Homeland Security.
They're automatically deducted from your checking account, which just sounds more like that UN biosecurity measures there because of what they're putting in play there.
But remember, in 22, the CIA said that there's going to be a civil war in America.
Well, this is all being staged for us, and we're supposed to accept more militarization.
And that's what's sad about it.
We're all the victims, regardless.
And this is because we have a few idiots in our government.
I hate to say our, but in this government, that have their own political and/or religious agenda, whether making America a white nationalist, like a lot of these evangelicals and stuff.
Russell Bought comes to mind first with that Mandate Project 2025.
But anyway, these are all, we're all being culturally manipulated.
And the same thing with whether it's gay or what like that.
Remember, with what I've proven through the File sheet files and stuff when you're running a vaccine program that's got the HIV spike protein in it.
Of course, you want to encourage the LGBT community because then you have someone else to blame for their lifestyles and stuff.
It's a great cover.
But I like to diffuse all this stuff like that and let people realize that we're all humans, we're all on this earth together.
And the same funds that you bitch about or they bitch about about being spent for the Somalians, whether it's for food or what your homeland security is the one issuing loans to set these people up in businesses to get their documentation, all this stuff.
You know, anyone, we're on a break.
I'll carry over for final thoughts.
I'll carry you over for final thoughts.
You know, we'll support your truth, you know, because you can handle the truth.

Health Simple with Calorada Shiloji, Factbit Number Three.
Shilogy is the supreme yoga vaja.
Within Ayurveda, Shiloji is a singular substance that towers above all other herbs, herbal minerals, and earth-made adaptogens.
Yoga Vaja refers to substances that have the ability to synergistically make better and carry other substances to its prescribed destination.
In the case of Shiloh, most any herb, food, or mineral is amplified with ionic potential, superimposing superior efficacy with increased cellular energy and absorption rates.
One of the best applications for Shiloh is to add a drop or two into your favorite herbal tincture and food stuff.
Simply put, Shiloh makes other substances more effective.

G-O-R-B-N.
All these things had that moment.
When lovers and friends, I still can recall.
Some are dead and some are living.
My eyes, I've loved them all.
Well, we seem to have lost Keith.
I'm going to take a couple other callers, Keith.
But if you want to call back in with some final thoughts, we can do that.
We got Dan in Washington always having opinions.
Dan, join the conversation.
Thanks.
Yeah, I wanted to agree with Layla while I didn't call in about this, but you know, even the Girl Scouts were told to wear pants, you know, like little stuff like that over the decades to make American women less feminine, you know, basically.
That's like, why would they make the Girl Scouts, you know, not wearing dresses or seeing girls wear dresses in America, you know, contributes to that.
I mean, I agree with what she was saying about the attack on femininity.
But I called, you go over these, you know, there's a psyop or people call them gay ops or whatever.
But I noticed like when this girl, you've studied this, there's always like two videos, and there's always like a delay to, so like the first video, you see the girl get shot.
It looks like, you know, total injustice, whatever.
And then that gives, so they release the first video.
That gets the public all riled up, divided, people get mad.
And then there's always the second video, like a week or two later, you know, that shows the cops' point of view and what this lady was saying and stuff.
It's like the guy that said, I can't breathe.
You know, you see the first video where the cops like smiling with his knee on his neck, it looks like, and but then, okay, then you see the other video like a month later after everybody's writing of like he's saying I can't breathe in the back of the car before it even happened, came to that.
I mean, the timed videos to me is a clue that this is some kind of a psyop, I guess.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, difficulty breathing is a symptom of a fentanyl overdose.
And he actually had his knee on his back rather than on his neck and was acting in accordance with standard police procedure in Minneapolis.
So you're making good points, Dan.
A final thought?
No, that was the main thing.
I'm just noticing that there's the delay in the videos coming out.
You know, it's only sequence can make a big difference.
That first impression.
You're absolutely right, Dan.
Thanks for the call.
We got James in Vancouver.
Welcome back, James.
Thoughts today.
Well, I got an idea.
Let's go be Muslims, James.
More wives and more children.
What the heck, right?
By the way, I think that translator got the rounds per minute incorrectly.
He said 300 rounds a minute.
I think it's 300 rounds a second.
And the reason is because now machine guns don't have mechanical fire.
Their shells are timed by computers.
So conceivably, I could fire 300 rounds a second.
That would take anybody out who's got conventional weapons.
Back to you for your comment.
Yeah, I've wondered about that, frankly.
So I think you're raising a good question.
The firepower of some of these, the firepower of some of these weapons is stunning.
I mean, even staggering.
And whatever the hell they were using down there, what is your thought?
What type weapon do you think they were using?
It's called sonic or electromagnetic or microwave.
Your best guess.
Well, I think it's a micro EMP.
It could be also, I've heard, micro-neutron bombs.
Remember, I helped you with that World Trade Center one and two, right?
So these drones could be carrying miniature neutron bombs, all right?
And that would definitely take a bunch of human beings out.
And I believe, of course, they were used in the secret wars in Cambodia because there's eyewitness testimony.
When YouTube was still a place you could go to to get information around 2005, let's say, guys were testifying to the fact that they saw these blue flashes while the Kong were chasing them.
The helicopter was waiting.
All of a sudden, there was a blue flash.
The GI turns around.
Of course, he's secret.
He's not supposed to be there.
He turns around and all these Kong just fall over.
So this technology has been around.
Oh, yeah.
Jones mentioned it yesterday.
Alex Jones mentioned it yesterday.
I think though, now Iraq, Iran, Iran might be different because I know that the Russians know this stuff.
So I would imagine they have made preparations for such an attack.
Back to you for your conversation.
I wanted to ask exactly that question.
Whether you think this poses a threat to Iran for which it's unprepared.
And I'm glad to have your suggestion.
No, no, in all probability or prepared because the Russians know all about these forms of technology.
Frankly, I feel much better just hearing you say that.
I've been very disturbed.
I mean, you know, they could use these lasers.
Are they going to use space-based lasers, you know, on Iran?
I mean, I don't think anything is off the table.
Go ahead.
Go ahead, Jim.
Well, okay.
Fire a laser at me.
I'll have a parabolic mirror.
I'll just deflect it back at you if I know how to do it right.
And I think the Russians and the Chinese, because remember, Iran is still locked into China.
Yeah.
This is their backyard, okay?
It's one thing to attack Venezuela out in the boondocks where they're expecting conventional warfare.
Okay.
Yeah.
And, well, of course, and the Russians and the Chinese, you notice it's like a chess game.
I'm not going to put my most important pieces in Venezuela because I'm going to tip the Venezuelans off.
Venezuelans are going to tell the Americans what I got.
You see what I'm saying?
I'm going to save my goodies for when the Americans think it's going to be a cakewalk, right?
Yeah.
Now, Donald Trump's rhetoric these days, like I'm hearing, well, I want you to take names of all the people that heard you.
Yeah.
And you give us the names and we'll take care of them.
Yeah, What century is this?
You see?
So they think that, well, and of course they're being pushed.
The Americans are being pushed by their buddies to go for it, right?
Because, okay, first time lucky, but that doesn't mean, okay, they're going to be lucky because I think good old Putin is a chess player.
And the Chinese are, they're not too stupid either.
They've got a trap set.
That's what I would do.
Back to you.
Fascinating.
I think it's going to happen.
I think it's going to happen.
You don't send out B-52s over there unless you're serious.
And we knew they were stocking up in advance.
I've been very concerned it would have happened already, but I do think it's going to happen now.
Yeah.
I worked on an anti-aircraft gun while I was contracting, while I was consulting for you.
I worked on an anti-aircraft gun using fast neutrons, which I never told you about.
So this is one of the next fast neutrons have a velocity of 14,000 kilometers a second.
That's 5% of the speed of light.
So this is going to be the next technology.
And of course, each blast of neutrons is a mini nuke, you see.
So conceivably, you could have a gatling gun of mini nukes firing fast neutrons out the barrel.
Okay.
And I think this is the stuff that's coming.
Okay.
I'll let you go.
Glad you're going to be able to do it.
Very, very glad you called, James.
Lots of important points there.
Much, much, much appreciated.
Road Jockey.
Thanks, James.
Road Jockey from Kansas.
Join the conversation, Road Jockey.
Okay, so I listened to most of the show today to most of what they had to say.
I hear lots of what she has to say, too.
But all this fighting over the, was it a justified shooting for the lady in Minneapolis or was it not a justified shooting?
I understand the valid points on every side of the argument if it was an actual event.
But if you study the footage, you will find out that it was highly scripted.
And they didn't just freaking let an AI video make its own freaking, they highly scripted and edited and made this AI video for people to see, for the people to react on both sides.
Like your one caller said, you got one video that shows one thing, and then later on there's another video that shows another thing.
So I was in Minneapolis the other day or Minnesota the other day, yesterday, and nice guys came up to me and I'm like, oh, great.
Let me just get my ID.
So they're fucking scanning it.
And I'm talking to other people and they're like, oh, yeah, I don't care.
They can scan my stuff because I'm a dumb stupid American anyway.
And I don't care.
And I'm like, guys, that's not the point.
This is a frog in the boiling water.
They're getting us used to that.
And one day they're going to scan your ID and it's going to pop up and say, take them away.
They don't freaking write the code as to what the computer program says.
They're just out there to scan and take people away.
If it's good, you stay another day.
If it's bad, you go away.
And they didn't understand that.
And I'm like, look, you know, There's like 600 concentration camps here in America for Americans.
And I've been to a couple of them.
They don't want to believe it.
But the other thing is, I think I heard on a program a while back, I'm not sure 11726 was supposed to be the start of World War III or whatever, or very hot and heavy with the action going on, possibly with Iran.
I don't know if I heard it on this show or not.
I don't know if any other callers know anything about that.
I don't know if it has to do with like Jumatria or the numerology or something like that.
I'm not sure, but I thought I heard that probably about back in October.
Did you hear anything about that?
117.
No, I can't say I did.
That would be three days hence.
I think it may happen.
I think it may happen sooner, Road Jockey, but we'll see.
We'll see.
We'll see.
I think the situation is now completely loaded.
I don't see this not happening.
I think it's now all but inevitable.
Your thoughts?
Well, I mean, here's the thing.
I thought I heard some.
Oh, also that video that you played yesterday about some guy saying that how Donald Trump was chosen by the Jews or whatever.
They're going to name him the king.
They've already named him the king.
Yeah.
So I wanted to call in yesterday, but I couldn't get in on that.
Yeah, okay.
I was the one that sent you.
I was the one that sent you information that Donald Trump is the biblical Antichrist.
Now, here's the thing: I am not a Bible-thumping Christian like Layla and all these other people.
That's fine if you do, but I can also understand that you don't have to have an actual God like in the Bible, but you can have the holy papers or holy what scriptures?
It's a script.
They wrote a script and they have been working with their families for thousands of years to carry this out for their benefit.
And all of this is scripted, and all of it was set up for this person, this man of perdition, to take over and run with the ball.
And he is the person that matches up with everything.
I know, I know, I know if you're well, I'm an agnostic.
It's hard to believe.
I know.
And because I'm a spiritual person, I don't believe in the Bible like that.
Well, I'm an agnostic, you know, and the whole butler thing about the pierced earth was all fabricated.
That was a fake, a staged event.
So I don't know if you're talking about God and all that.
I mean, the contrived events count.
See, I think this is all very, very political, not really religious, but very political.
Well, here's the thing.
Unfortunately, politics and religion are tied together.
Yeah.
But you're right.
It was a staged event.
It was a satanic ritual designed to look like a assassination attempt.
There weren't any shots.
Yeah.
The way the audio, the way the way the audience in the background acted, it was, and the first news reports were like, oh, there was like some kind of audio or whatever.
What happened was the people that were supposedly his staff and the protectors, the secret service agents, they were new agents on the team.
They were like a stand-in team.
And so, you know, what those were, were those were participants in the Church of Satan.
And when he got down on the ground, they took a razor blade and they nicked his ear.
That is the ritual of a person that proclaims in front of an audience, they are the most loyal servant of Satan.
And so that's what that was.
In the Bible, people are like, oh, no, the anarchist is supposed to die.
No, it says he appears to have a mortal head wound, and then he comes back three days later.
Comes back three days later.
What do you mean he died?
No, he comes back three days later, as in he came back.
He went away for a while.
He was underground.
And then he came back at the convention.
Thanks.
The convention in Milwaukee.
Milwaukee's known for beer.
What's the most famous beer Milwaukee is known for?
Old Milwaukee.
What was the nickname of it?
The beef.
He does all this stuff to play with people to get you to try to realize it.
People, you are not understanding the game that is being played on you.
He's throwing some of these hints out and he's messing with you.
He's trolling you, but you're not getting the message.
Road, I'd love that call.
I got a couple others, but I'd love that call.
Call again.
Call again.
I like that call very much.
We got Mitchell in Tennessee, I think, who wants to clarify some of the issues.
Go right ahead, Mitchell.
Tim, what's going on?
Listen, I wanted to speak to something, a couple of things, but I'll try this for starters.
Layla was talking about Renee and Renee being an anarchist.
I think Renee is an anarchist because she follows the teachings of Mark Passio.
What I want to do is I want to look, and I've got here anarchy according to the Random House Dictionary.
I want to read some definitions here if I may.
Three definitions of anarchy.
Number one, political and social disorder due to absence of governmental control.
We now live in a status with a status authoritarian government system intact, in play.
Could not that definition apply to what we have right now?
Hey.
Yeah, good.
I know that break.
Go ahead.
No, political and social.
This is the definition.
This is one of the definitions of anarchy according to the dictionary here.
A political and social disorder due to absence of government control.
That's what we have now.
Definition number two, confusion, chaos, and disorder.
What the hell do we have now?
With a status, authoritarian government system intact, we have confusion.
You guys are just talking about the beginning of World War III, for God's sake.
Yeah.
We're talking about civil war.
We have confusion, chaos, and disorder as we are living in a statist government system.
Authoritarian government system that you guys, that so many people are advocating for.
Now I have what, number three, I have what, this is what I'm sure Renee's looking at.
And this is what I'll consider to be the etymologically correct definition of the word anarchy.
No archons, no masters.
Okay.
If there's no masters, there's going to be no slaves.
We have here a theory that regards the absence of all direct or coercive government as a political ideal that proposes the cooperative and voluntary association of individuals and groups as the principal mode of organized society.
I like that definition.
I like that ideology.
I don't think that's dirty and nasty.
And that is what I consider closest to be the correct definition of the word anarchy.
Well, I'll tell you, I think somebody great, great.
Mark, go ahead.
I think somebody greatly appreciates that, and she'll be speaking right after you.
So go tie it together because I got Renee standing by.
Well, because the word anarchy has been so stigmatized, a lot of people that like this ideology have chosen to use the word voluntarism.
I will say that there's some brilliant people, Mark and Rose, Mark Passio, David Friedman, Michael Humer, Professor Michael Humer.
There's a bunch of people that have studied this and look at this, and it possibly could work.
But all the concerns that people have about Things wouldn't work with an anarchist society.
It's all speculation.
And again, to reiterate here, what you have right now with your government system, whatever the hell you want to call it, UCC, representative of a government institutional democracy, it's not working.
Yeah, thanks.
I got a complication because we got a new member joining RBN that I want to introduce.
He's a wonderful guy.
Let me squeeze in Renee for just a minute.
Renee, you got to be super concise.
I'll bring you in tomorrow and we can talk at greater length.
Go ahead.
Renee.
The word anarchy has been twisted by governments, okay?
The thing is, conservatives say they like little government.
They don't want big government.
But look what they have brought in.
The complete opposite.
You're right about that third definition.
These types of very sophisticated, smart anarchists like Larkin Rose and Mark Passio, they're very freedom-minded and they don't like the state being abusive.
You know, one of my favorite quotes is by Deero.
He said, mankind will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrance of the last priest.
Okay?
These groups work together to oppress us harvesting.
Look at that control.
Like I say, all the things, are they protecting us right now?
Not at all.
Like I say, I like the Keep's point.
Like I say, who brings those Somalis in here?
Who gives them the damn checks?
Okay.
I'm not mad at them.
I'm mad at the people who are doing it.
And it's your own government.
Y'all can't raise the fact that your own government is betraying you.
Okay.
Y'all, it's much easier to kick down than to punch up because those people hit back hard.
You're great.
You're great.
Love it.
Call in tomorrow.
We'll talk at greater length.
I'm sorry for those others who I couldn't get on today.
I got an introduction here to make.
We got a new host here on RBN.
He's going to have this show following mine.
His name is Bob Tusk, and I've known him for a long time.
He's a very smart guy, a very good guy.
I'm sure he's going to be a valuable contribution to RBN.
Bob, are you standing by?
I'm just delighted to have you join the team.
Thanks, Jim.
It's been a while.
You know, the last time we spoke was probably a dozen years ago when you came to the Free Your Mind conference that we held in Philadelphia.
And although I'm a new show to RBN, I used to broadcast way back when, Monday through Friday, three hours a day, right in the same very time slot.
So I'm ecstatic to be back to do at least one day a week starting off Wednesdays from 5 to 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
And we're going to get into a whole cornicop copia of topics.
Nothing is off limits.
As usual, I will call a spadis paid when needed.
I'll look for solutions when needed.
I hate to focus too much on the fear-mongering because I think there are some pragmatic things that we need to put in place.
So focusing on getting our own affairs in order is very important to me.
I appreciate what you do every day right before this time slot, and it gives me the worldview that I then apply using logic and critical thinking.
As you know, Jim, I ended up with a degree in philosophy.
Don't hold it against me.
And just like you, I tend to try to apply some of those critical thinking skills to the madness that we see in our world today.
Well, it's just wonderful to hear you.
It's wonderful to hear your voice, Bob.
And your conferences were brilliant.
So, I'm overjoyed to have you here on RBN and to be following my show.
How wonderful indeed.
So, welcome, welcome, welcome.
And I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of those who liked my show are going to like yours just as well.
So, I'm delighted to have you here.
A final word?
Well, I hope so.
And I hope that this is something different.
I'm tired of preaching in the choir.
I'm tiring of doing the same old.
I've come back rejuvenated.
I've come back with a mission, and I want to accomplish that mission.
And if you're not going to participate, fine.
But at the end of the day, you and I, Jim, are not the type to stand by and watch this society collapse.
We will take care of our family.
We will take care of our communities.
And this broadcast is going to be an extension of just that.
Perfect.
Perfect, Bob.
I'm just delighted, very happy to have you coming on board right here at RBN.
And it's a wonderful family.
You're going to like them a lot, Bob.
I think the audience is going to appreciate you, and you are going to appreciate your audience.
So I hope so.
And anybody that wants to confront me on anything, feel free to call in: 800-313-9443.
You got it, Bob.
You'll be hearing from them.
All right, brother.
Thank you.
Love you.
You too.
Meanwhile, everyone spends as much time with your family, your friends, people you love and care about.
We don't know how much time we have left.
It may be a whole lot less than we would like, especially given the development of events in the Middle East.
Support RBN.
And God willing, and I say that emphatically now, God willing, we'll be back tomorrow and we'll do it all over again.
