	Welcome to the situation update for Wednesday, April 20th, 2022.
	Mike Adams here, brighteon.com, naturalnews.com.
	Thank you for joining me.
	Today's two primary topics are, number one, Western Europe is committing civilization suicide by now issuing an embargo against Russian coal and oil.
	So basically, Western Europe is saying, we're just going to have no energy and see what happens.
	So we're going to cover that in a little more detail.
	And it's actually not just Western Europe.
	It's Western civilization is committing suicide.
	And then the second major story is that the United States is using up a significant portion of its military assets, its weapons, such as the javelins, And, you know, ammunition, missiles, whatever, even bullets, just in fighting this proxy war with Russia.
	And there are alarm bells sounding now that the U.S. is not going to have any real weapons available to defend itself if, for example, China were to invade or launch a war with the United States.
	So one of the strategies that appears to be unfolding here is that Russia is sort of Causing the U.S. to see its military supplies dwindle and it will take years to replace.
	Yep, all this just so that Joe Biden can cover up his crimes, his family's crimes with the bioweapons labs in eastern Ukraine, because that's a big part of what this is all about, by the way, just trying to cover up the evidence.
	We're going to get to that, but we've got a lot of other sort of short headlines first.
	There is word going around online that the headquarters for Azure Standard, which is a major organic produce company, their headquarters has burned down just yesterday, and this is suspected as being another attack on the food distribution system, kind of a weaponization system.
	You know, of shutting down the food supply.
	Now, that's just speculation.
	The fire may have been caused by something else.
	We don't know yet.
	But that is circulating out there.
	And we hope to learn more about that.
	We offer our condolences and prayers to Azure Standard, anyone who's been devastated by fire, especially when you're in the business of trying to sell healthy food to people.
	So that's just one data point in what's going on.
	Wanted to let you know, I have also posted on my channel, or at least it should be posted, a documentary that I produced back in 2017 that is suddenly relevant again, and it's been banned everywhere, and it's called The Science Agenda to Exterminate Blacks.
	Now, this was copied and posted all over YouTube for many years.
	YouTube decided to ban it because they didn't want black people to know that the science industry, you know, vaccines and pharmaceuticals and chemotherapy and all that, is targeting blacks for ethnic cleansing.
	I mean, there's no other way to say it.
	Depopulation of black people.
	And so we have resurrected that documentary.
	We are reposting it now back to brighttown.com.
	And feel free to take that and post it elsewhere because people need to see this.
	They need to understand that long before COVID, the science establishment was targeting people of color and trying to carry out mass extermination.
	And if you watch that documentary, you'll find that a whole lot of that has come true now during COVID and especially the vaccine push on blacks and Latinos.
	Remember what we talked about yesterday?
	We had the Health and Human Services Secretary Becerra, and I'd been pronouncing his name Javier, but I guess it's Xavier.
	I don't know.
	It starts with an X. Sometimes I've heard that pronounced like Javier.
	But anyway, Becerra had said that vaccines are killing black people and killing Latinos at twice the rate of white people.
	So That reminded me about this documentary, and we're reposting it to make sure everybody gets to see this and understand the truth about what's going on.
	Okay, I also want to acknowledge that Gonzalo Lira appears to be missing for now five days.
	He was also known as Coach Red Pill, and he had been living in Kharkov, and he was commenting about the Ukraine-Russia situation that With a lot of criticism about the Ukrainian regime and the thugs and the scumbags that work for Zelensky who carry out political executions and the disappearing of dissidents and so on and so forth.
	I mean, it's a universal thing.
	This happens in America, too.
	I'm sure it happens in Russia as well, so I'm not singling out Ukraine.
	But Gonzalo Lira, who's originally from Chile, but he's been an American citizen since a very young age, he was rather outspoken, and he did an interview with Scott Ritter that is definitely worth listening to, and that was maybe a week ago now, or thereabouts.
	And Scott Ritter, of course, is the weapons inspector who originally came to fame during the Gulf War.
	Desert Storm, the whole fiasco surrounding the so-called weapons of mass destruction that Saddam Hussein had.
	Remember the yellow cake uranium story that the Bush regime concocted?
	And that turned out to be completely fake, right?
	Total fabrication of the deep state intelligence community.
	What else is new?
	But anyway, Scott Ritter has some very important comments about what's going on right now in Ukraine.
	And I watched that interview.
	I would love to interview Scott Ritter, too, by the way.
	I'm not sure that's going to be able to happen.
	I would also like to interview Gonzalo, but he's gone missing.
	So we don't know if he's alive.
	We don't know if he's captured.
	We don't know if he's being tortured.
	And we need to raise the alarm about this.
	So spread the word.
	He was known as Coach Red Pill.
	His channel name on Telegram is RealCRP.
	Oh, that's for Coach Red Pill.
	I get it.
	Okay.
	RealCRP.
	And he has not posted since, it looks like, yeah, roughly five days ago or so.
	So we're very concerned about Gonzalo Lira.
	And his whereabouts, you know, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with his politics or his analysis and so on, I mean, you know, he definitely has said a lot of provocative things.
	Doesn't mean that he should be imprisoned or executed by goon squads.
	So...
	Spread the word.
	And also note that Gonzalo was the one who was constantly asking, where is Tiffany Dover?
	Another person has gone missing.
	Tiffany Dover is the nurse at that, what was it?
	Was it a Tennessee hospital or a North Carolina hospital?
	Forgot where she was on camera, took the vaccine and then passed out.
	And the rumor is she died.
	Because no one's ever heard from her again.
	She's never appeared on TV, not in any interview, not in any podcast, nothing.
	Gone.
	And Tiffany Dover has been kind of memory holed because apparently, at least the rumor is, that she was killed by the vaccine.
	So Gonzalo was constantly reminding us about that, and now Gonzalo has disappeared.
	We need to sound the alarm on these people disappearing.
	We need to let the powers that be know that we are going to hold them accountable for the disappearances and the deaths of these individuals, perhaps in the case of Tiffany, if she is dead.
	We don't have proof of that yet, but it seems to be the most likely outcome.
	And we're going to continue to say these people's names and sound the alarm and demand some accountability of these regimes that are taking these people out, apparently.
	All right, moving on in other news, Lucky Charms cereal has been making a lot of people sick, apparently.
	Hundreds of people, if not thousands, have reported that following consuming Lucky Charms, they were feeling very, very sick, and they reported on a website called iwaspoisoned.com, which I guess is kind of like down detector, but for bad food, that Let's see.
	According to the Wall Street Journal, thousands of people have reported symptoms like nausea after eating the cereal.
	And the FDA has opened an official investigation into Lucky Charms.
	All kinds of jokes pending here on this, of course.
	And they're magically nauseating.
	General Mills, which is the manufacturer of Lucky Charms, has conducted its own review and has not found anything that would cause people to feel sick.
	Now, as you know, if you grew up in the era that I grew up in, the proper way to eat Lucky Charms is to eat...
	All of the non-sugar bits first, leaving only the floating sugar bits in the sweetened milk, and then you eat those last to get your sugar rush when you're seven years old.
	And I suspect that people are having tummy aches because they're eating the Lucky Charms in the wrong order.
	So just spread the word.
	anybody who's crazy enough to still be eating sugar bomb cereals with kind of weird, almost like transgender leprechaun guy on the cover with magical rainbows and so on.
	I mean, we didn't know what all that meant back then in the 1970s, but now it's all pretty obvious.
	I think people are eating it in the wrong order, and that's what's causing the stomach ache.
	Either that or something's gone horribly wrong with the food coloring chemicals.
	That are used in the charms.
	Maybe the charms aren't so lucky after all.
	Anyway, we hope General Mills gets to the bottom of this and doesn't have to go looking for the answers at the end of a rainbow.
	So, And in culture news, we've all enjoyed the channel called Libs of TikTok.
	We all love it, right?
	I mean, it's just so hilarious to watch the libs of TikTok destroy themselves in their own words and with their own actions and with their own weird...
	What do you even call it?
	Body projecting?
	Outpicturing?
	What is that?
	You know, when they dress up like demons and they have all the body piercings and tattoos and alterations and so on, and then they tell you how liberal they are and they're so condescending.
	Well, anyway, there's a Washington Post reporter named Taylor Lorenz who has been stalking and now doxing the creator of Libs of TikTok and even apparently stalking family members of the creator of Libs of TikTok, who is a woman.
	At least that's what's being reported.
	I don't know who it is.
	But Taylor Lorenz is the same Washington Post journalist who was Crying the other day, talking about how she was being brutalized by so many online trolls.
	And then she runs around stalking family members and doxing people.
	And I got to say, you know, she, the Washington Post reporter, Lorenz, is just another example of the kind of evil, malicious journal terrorism that has taken over the corporate media.
	And there are people like Taylor Lorenz who work at NBC News, And at the Washington Post and the New York Times and so on.
	And their job is to run around and threaten and terrorize and try to destroy anybody who is exposing the lunacy of the left, which is what libs of TikTok does extremely well.
	I could spend the whole hour here showing you videos from libs of TikTok.
	And I just want to say, if anybody from libs of TikTok is listening to You are more than welcome to keep posting on Brighteon.com.
	You know why?
	Because I'm the founder of Brighteon.com and we would love to have libs of TikTok all over Brighteon so that we can wake up and have a good laugh each morning.
	That would be very invigorating.
	It's good, you know, for healing, for cardiovascular function, get the oxygen moving if you're laughing your ass off and rolling on the floor because of the libs of TikTok latest videos.
	So please post on Brighteon.com.
	You are welcome.
	And you know, come to think of it, we don't have a channel called Libs of Brighteon because there just aren't that many freaky libs who post on Brighteon, which is a shame.
	You know, it is a free speech platform.
	So, you know, freaky weird-ass libs are totally welcome to post on Brighteon as well.
	We might share some of those videos.
	If you do decide to post there, just go ahead and use the channel name Libs of Brighteon because I don't think it's taken.
	At this point, or maybe somebody will take it now.
	And maybe somebody will just cross-post libs of TikTok.
	There you go.
	It's going to be interesting.
	All right.
	Inflation in Argentina has reached almost 60% annual inflation.
	That's huge.
	I mean, wow.
	Now, in the United States, we are way over 60% annual inflation when it comes to food prices.
	As we've covered, the FAO numbers out of the United Nations are currently pegging month-over-month food inflation at over 12%, I think 12.6%.
	And so you might say, well, so what is annual inflation of food if it's 12% month-over-month?
	Well, If you know the rule of 72, of course, you can divide 72 by 12% and you figure out that food prices are going to double about every six months.
	So that means you have essentially 100% inflation every six months right now in food prices based on the month-over-month increase, which means they're going to double again in the next six months.
	So, I mean, whatever costs, let's say, $10 right now in a year will cost about $40.
	That is if the month-over-month rates continue at 12-plus percent per month.
	But in Argentina, these 60% annualized inflation rates apply across the board.
	So this is for construction goods, vehicles, all kinds of things, not just food.
	And Argentina is starting to, you know, freak out over this.
	People are losing their savings, which is what always happens as governments move into hyperinflation territory, which is coming.
	I think in many ways we've already entered that in the Western world.
	And I got to move forward here to get to the main stories today.
	But yeah, we're about to enter mega inflation.
	So In fact, let's get to the suicide of Western Europe.
	And let me begin by introducing a story from RealClearEnergy.org.
	This is a site that I don't really cite very much.
	But they had a great story called Woke Investors Threaten the West's Security.
	In an era of rising geopolitical tensions, it is folly to let Wall Street determine the nation's energy policy.
	And if I could paraphrase this story by Rupert Darwall, and again, I'm paraphrasing.
	I don't assign these words to Rupert.
	These are my own words.
	But I would say that what he's actually laying out is that when libtards control Wall Street and investors make their decisions based on libtardism or runaway libtardia instead of rationality and reason, logic and forecasting future events and so on, then you end up with all this money chasing these harebrained ideas that do not work, such as trying to run your entire economy on solar panels.
	And wind farms or even hydroelectric power, what have you, while dismantling the fossil fuel energy infrastructure before you have an alternative for transitioning onto.
	So this is what's happening in Western Europe is they have systematically dismantled their systems of energy, fossil fuels, you know, oil, natural gas and so on.
	And now they are faced with a catastrophic situation that is very, very woke.
	Lots of virtue signaling.
	Oh, my God, we're all so clean and green.
	But in fact, they it's a collapse of energy, which means it's going to be a collapse of Western civilization as we know it.
	So right now we have an oil embargo that has been declared by the EU. That's right.
	EU to impose full embargo on Russian oil next week.
	And that's going to send oil prices above $185 a barrel, according to J.P. Morgan.
	This is reported by Zero Hedge.
	An EU gas price to shoot up as EU to declare embargo on Russian oil after French election next week.
	So they're waiting for the French election because they don't want the French voters to vote for Le Pen.
	Because if the French voters are suffering, they might choose the alternative candidate.
	Which is Le Pen, in this case, kind of like the female version of France's Trump, in a way.
	We'll see what happens there.
	But then they're going to, the EU is going to declare a full embargo on Russian oil, which is kind of like, I don't know, taking a knife and cutting one of your major arteries or something, which is an insane suicide move.
	But that's what the European Union is doing to itself.
	So, once again, we have these economic embargoes trying to target Russia, but it ended up just hurting Western civilization nations.
	I mean, you can say, if you're Western Europe, you can say, yeah, we're not going to buy your oil, Putin.
	And Putin's like, okay, we'll sell it to Turkey, we'll sell it to India, we'll sell it to China, and African nations, and so on.
	I mean, just like, 60%, 70% of the world's population lives in countries that are still, or maybe more, that are happy to do business with Russia.
	And every country needs oil, so Russia's not going to have any shortage of buyers.
	All that's really happening is Western nations are cutting themselves off.
	Cutting off their nose to spike their face, or actually cutting off their own heads.
	To expand the metaphor.
	To spite everything.
	I don't know.
	Just to commit suicide.
	So the question is, how are Western European nations going to power their economies?
	What's going to happen as their productivity utterly collapses because they do not have Russian energy?
	I mean, what happens when they cut off the pipelines as well for natural gas?
	Now, there's another element in all of this, and that is that the EU is also going to block Russian coal.
	Yeah, they're going to eliminate imports of Russian coal.
	So this is from a group called Capitalist Exploits.
	70% of Europe's thermal coal comes from Russia, and coal accounts for about 20% of Europe's electricity production, at least 20%, perhaps a little bit more.
	So you may not know this, but the three largest exporters of coal in the world are Indonesia, Australia, and Russia.
	That's right.
	And Russia's more than double the United States or South Africa or any other nation.
	So you look at Western Europe and they're saying, ah, we're going to embargo Russian oil and Russian coal and probably Russian natural gas and all kinds of Russian technology and goods and commodities and exports and wheat and copper and everything else.
	And it's like, hey, who's going to suffer here?
	It's Western Europe that's going to suffer, and Western nations like the United States as well.
	So this is the economic suicide of Western Europe, and this is the total downfall.
	What has occurred to me is that Western civilization has become so dysfunctional and so mentally ill that The people running it can no longer operate in any kind of rational way to even maintain the way the system works, to maintain the pillars of sustainable civilization.
	All they want to do is diddle your children.
	All they want to do is fantasize about genitalia mutilation of kindergartners.
	That's their total preoccupation.
	And they have no sense about keeping society functioning, about having the rule of law, about communities being safe, or having a money supply that works instead of collapses all the time.
	All they wanted, they're just totally preoccupied with transgenderism and grooming of children.
	And so civilization is collapsing all around them because they don't care about civilization.
	I mean, truly, a lot of these lunatics running Western nations, I think that they don't mind if nations collapse as long as they get the proper sufficient supply of children delivered so they can commit acts of pedophilia and so on.
	They feel fine about it.
	That's all they care about.
	They don't care that all of Western civilization is on a path of total collapse.
	And the winner in all of this, by the way, is going to be, well, Russia and China.
	Russia, because Russia is making record money off of the energy exports because of sky-high prices.
	Russia is actually gaining territory in Ukraine.
	Mark my words, when this is all said and done, Russia is going to be bigger.
	Ukraine is going to be smaller.
	That's where this is going.
	And Russia is demanding rubles for its commodities.
	So the Russian currency is going to get stronger and stronger while the U.S. dollar and the euro are headed for collapse.
	The euro is going to collapse, folks.
	The euro will collapse, the dollar will collapse, and the Japanese yen will also collapse.
	Those three currencies are going to collapse.
	I don't know the order of the collapse, but I suspect the EU goes first.
	In fact, I'm quite certain of that at this point, and I think the dollar goes last.
	So if I had to guess, it's going to be The euro goes down and then the yen goes down and then the dollar is the last one standing and then it's the, you know, finally collapses and that ripples across the world and then we're in, you know, a total collapse scenario for some period of time, complete with mass starvation and uprisings and chaos and, you know, all the things that we've talked about in other podcasts.
	You know, the half glass full type of pod, the real positive podcast, right?
	Those are the ones.
	So the energy situation is so dire that, check this out, this announcement, The Biden administration is going to resume oil and gas drilling on federal lands.
	And this story, by the way, you know, ecowatch.com is a website that I like.
	I like Ecowatch.
	They have a lot of good stories about a lot of very interesting things, but they are most definitely not pro-oil.
	You know, just to be clear, Ecowatch is more concerned about CO2 and so on.
	But EcoWatch, nevertheless, is a, I think, a good publishing news website.
	And so they're not happy, obviously, about this gas drilling on federal lands, even as they report about it.
	The Interior Department said in a press release that it's going to auction off drilling leases across 225 square miles in nine states.
	That's Wyoming and a bunch of other states.
	It begs the question, why does the federal government own this land?
	Why does it claim to own this land?
	I mean, first of all, that's all unconstitutional.
	The federal government is an occupying enemy force to the states.
	You know, what happened to the 10th Amendment?
	How come Wyoming land isn't owned by the people of Wyoming?
	Or the same thing with Nevada and Utah and so on, and Montana, you name it.
	But so much of the West is actually seized by the federal government and then they claim to have control over it.
	Well, gas prices are going so high that the Biden regime has now decided, well, we're just going to have to drill, baby, drill.
	Remember that slogan?
	We're going to have to drill.
	Otherwise, the Democrats are going to lose every election coming up here if the elections are held.
	But the funny part of this, or kind of the ironic part, is that it takes years to develop these sites.
	So I don't know why they think this is going to help them win in the midterm elections, because you don't just have a permit and then roll out there next week and start pumping oil out of the ground.
	You have to do all these permits and site assessments and ecological surveys and reports and approvals, and then you have to have the equipment go out there and drill wells, and it is a very complex thing.
	It's actually quite...
	Technical and rather ingenious the way it's done these days.
	It's very high tech and it's difficult to pull off and it takes time.
	And a lot of the wells don't produce.
	So, you know, you can end up drilling 100 wells and you might only get two that are worth keeping.
	So you could spend years drilling for nothing.
	So this isn't really going to help the Biden regime at all, but it just shows you that they don't understand the oil industry.
	So they're like desperately, yeah, let's just start drilling.
	Well, too late.
	You shouldn't have canceled the pipelines two years ago is the real story.
	You should have kept America's oil flowing, which is what Trump was doing.
	All right, anyway, moving on to the U.S. running out of munitions and bombs.
	This is today's rut-row segment.
	Rut-row, row, row, row, rut, rut, row.
	The U.S. is running out of bombs and it may soon struggle to make more.
	This is from defensenews.com.
	This is because the U.S. is sending so many bombs and munitions to Ukraine, you know, to fight the proxy war with Russia, that America is running out of munitions.
	So, from the story, the Pentagon plans to invest $20 billion in munitions in its next budget.
	But whether there's an industrial base to even support such massive expenditures is up in the air.
	You follow this?
	So, the question is, can the United States even make weapons?
	At the at the rate that they're being used up and the answer is no, it turns out.
	So there's a industrial capabilities report that was put out by the Pentagon's Office of Manufacturing and Industrial Based Policy.
	Has concluded essentially that the industrial base of the munitions sector in America is not actually able to build much anymore.
	Because, well, you know, it's all been downsized and outsourced and everything.
	And the supply chain isn't working and nobody wants to work in America because they're getting free handout money.
	You know, I want my bailout money.
	So, and also, it's all outdated now.
	Most of the weapons are just out of date.
	There hasn't been a lot of new R&D in this area.
	You know, the weapons companies, by and large, have been fat cat collectors of, you know, free money, just feeding at the government trough, collecting huge dollars for outdated weapon systems like the Javelin or the Patriot missiles and so on.
	You know how old those things are?
	The Javelins are from the 1990s.
	And the Patriot missiles, I think they're from the early 80s.
	I'm not sure exactly what year, but they're outdated and practically useless against Russia's cruise missiles, by the way, especially the hypersonic missiles.
	So the story says some suppliers have dropped out entirely, leaving no option for replacing vital materials, and other key suppliers are foreign-owned.
	Like, only in America, right?
	Would the key suppliers of our national defense munitions sector be owned by foreigners?
	Quote, with no indigenous capacity to produce vital parts and materials.
	That means we can't make it in America.
	Huh, Ross Perot was right.
	A giant sucking sound.
	That has sucked the manufacturing out of America.
	Remember that?
	Quote, setting up the risk that a conflict with China could rely on Chinese-made parts.
	Yes, indeed.
	Again, how insanely stupid is the Pentagon to have munitions made based on parts that come from China?
	It's just ludicrous.
	It's just the dumbest thing imaginable in terms of national defense.
	But, you know, what else should we expect from these pigs feeding at the trough?
	The big fat cat Pentagon LGBT pushers who don't give a crap about America's national defense.
	They just want to make easy money selling outdated weapons while the troops will be dying on the battlefield because they're not equipped with anything that actually works.
	Sound familiar?
	Because that's what's happening in Ukraine right now.
	America is shipping all these javelins and everything over there, and a lot of it doesn't work.
	Check this out.
	The military's desire to tinker with existing designs rather than create brand new weapons has left the industrial base with a lack of design experience, which means that, quote, design skills for critical components within the missile sector industrial base are at risk.
	In other words, nobody knows how to design missiles anymore.
	That's really what it means, because all the smart people have been, you know, kicked out because of the virtue signaling.
	Oh, high IQ white person, you're gone.
	You're going to be replaced by this libtard over here who just checks off all the boxes, transgender, victimology.
	They're going to come in and design missiles that don't work.
	We can't have this smart Asian people or white people designing missiles that work when we could have, you know, all these libtards in here, you know, virtue signaling.
	So, you know, the Pentagon, America's military may have the first gay missiles and transgender torpedoes.
	And they won't work because it'll all be make-believe.
	There'll be a sticker on the side of the torpedo.
	I self-identify as a torpedo with an effective tracking system.
	But inside, there will be no tracking system.
	It'll just be filled with whatever goes into Mike Lindell's MyPillow stuffing.
	That's what's going to be inside the torpedoes.
	They'll be like transgender pillow-stuffed torpedoes, and they'll cost $5 million each, and they'll have rainbows on them, and there'll be awards for all the libtards who designed those systems that don't work, because America has become completely dysfunctional, irrational, suicidal.
	All the best-qualified people have been fired from their jobs.
	You know, remember, because math is racist, or said correctly, math is racist.
	Science is racist.
	It's all racist.
	Just totally insane.
	Whatever happened to meritocracy?
	I mean, shouldn't we hire the best engineers, regardless of their skin color or their sexual orientation?
	I don't care if they're gay or lesbian or even trans.
	If they're the best designers, let them work on the systems, you know?
	But that's not how society works anymore.
	And, you know, it all comes down to just two companies, Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.
	Both of which have become embroiled in a bunch of virtue signaling libtardia.
	They account for about 97% of the munitions and missile procurement for the Department of Defense.
	97%.
	And that's it.
	So Defense News published a list of things that we're not going to be able to have.
	Not going to be able to make.
	Four areas.
	Number one, solid rocket motors.
	These are the things that create thrust in missiles and so on.
	Can't get those.
	Thermal batteries, these batteries are used in the missiles, the ones that actually work.
	And then fuses, you've got to have fuses, and we don't really have much of an ability to manufacture fuses.
	And then small turbine engines, there are only two companies involved in this sector, and one of them is going to Leave, or had left already in 2018, so there's only one left.
	So, yeah.
	Out of 121 second-tier suppliers for munitions capabilities, 98% of them were single-source, which means no redundancy.
	No redundancy.
	Can't get it.
	Where are you going to get your bombs?
	Where are you going to get your missiles?
	Actually, there's a positive slant to all of this because it also means that if Washington goes totally insane and tries to, let's say, wage war against the American people using the military, that military is going to be so dysfunctional and have no functioning weapons.
	I mean, they're not going to be effective.
	They could not conquer America using the military.
	It would be impossible.
	They just don't have the weapons and the American people would be fighting back like crazy.
	But in any case, the military can't even defend America against some other invader.
	So here's another story from BloombergQuint.com Ukraine war is depleting America's arsenal of democracy.
	What a mind frack phrase, quote, arsenal of democracy.
	It's not democracy.
	Let's not even pretend.
	You know, we're under a totalitarian regime, an illegitimate fake government that rigged the election and occupies the White House.
	So let's not call it an arsenal of democracy.
	It's an arsenal of terror.
	I mean, America has bombed more innocent countries and more infrastructure and killed more civilians around the world than almost anybody since what?
	Since, well, since World War II, probably.
	I would imagine.
	I don't know.
	The history of democide is pretty long and pretty horrifying.
	So we might have to fact check that.
	But America, I know, killed, what, half a million Iraqis in the Gulf War.
	By bombing infrastructure, causing mass starvation, and no water supply, and so on.
	That's all America's doing right there.
	Let's not call it an arsenal of democracy.
	Give me a break.
	But anyway, this story talks about how America has been sending, shipping weapons and munitions over to Ukraine.
	And as a result, America's been using up its supply of different kinds of systems.
	So Mark Milley, General Milley, you know, the traitor, told Congress that we've delivered now 60,000 anti-tank weapons and 25,000 anti-aircraft weapons to Kiev.
	And then we're supposed to be sending over, I don't know, $800 million in helicopters and armored personnel carriers and so on.
	And this is supposed to be helping Ukraine win the war, but Ukraine isn't winning the war because all the hardware we send over there just gets blown up by Russians, it seems.
	And so Pentagon officials from the story say that Kiev is blowing through a week's worth of deliveries of anti-tank munitions every day.
	You got that?
	So whatever anti-tank systems we deliver in a week, they use them all in one day.
	They're also running short of usable aircraft as Russian airstrikes and combat losses take their toll.
	Ammunition has become scarce in Mariupol and other areas.
	This is presenting Western countries with a stark choice between pouring more supplies into Ukraine or husbanding finite capabilities they may need for their own defense.
	You got that?
	It's kind of like, well, we can keep sending Ukraine all this stuff while watching the Russians blow it up.
	Or...
	We could actually have a national defense here at home and have munitions for ourselves.
	And the thing is, a lot of these systems take years to manufacture.
	You can't just wave a magic wand and have 5,000 more javelins overnight.
	It takes years to make them, and they're outdated anyway.
	So from the story, Germany has declined to transfer tanks to Ukraine on the grounds that it can't spare them.
	It's like Germany's like, we need the tanks!
	For what?
	What does Germany need tanks for?
	Well, you could probably imagine a few things that are about to happen.
	Germany might need some tanks because, you know, they're part of the...
	The resurrection of the Third Reich that's trying to take over the world.
	So anyway, Canada has run short on rocket launchers.
	It sounds like Canada, actually.
	Welcome to Canada.
	We've run out of rocket launchers.
	Yes, you're in the right place.
	The U.S. has provided one-third of its stockpile of Javelin anti-tank missiles, and it can't deliver more without leaving its own armories badly depleted.
	And it may take years to ramp up production, Yeah, so here, have more javelins, and then we'll have nothing left.
	You know, so let's be honest about the situation in Ukraine.
	I mean, Russia is in total control of the battlefield in eastern Ukraine, the Donbass region, the industrial heartland of Ukraine.
	I mean, Russia's in total control.
	Russia's got absolute air dominance.
	The U.S. isn't shooting down Russian fighter jets and bombers.
	Not at all.
	Russia's got the hypersonic missiles.
	Russia has very powerful artillery systems with high fire rates and laser-guided artillery munitions and so on.
	I mean, it's very advanced stuff.
	Russia's got, you know, the SA... What is it?
	The SA-400s and the...
	Or the S-400, excuse me.
	And I think...
	Isn't there an S-500...
	Anti-air defense system that is incredibly advanced, can shoot down fighter jets, hypersonic missiles, and even low-Earth orbit satellites.
	That's some pretty amazing capability right there.
	And you know, Ukraine has put up some pretty rugged defenses, considering, in the cities, you know, in the city areas or the industrial areas, but If this war goes to the open land of Ukraine, you know, the farmlands and all the space between Donbass and Kiev, Russia's going to decimate Ukrainian forces because, well, think about it.
	Russia's got air dominance and tanks, long-range missile systems, and there's no place to hide out in the middle of a wheat field.
	You know, you can't hide in the factory buildings of Azov's stall.
	You know, out in the middle of central Ukraine.
	So, sending weapons to Ukraine right now, it's really only accomplishing a couple of things, both of which are bad.
	Number one, it's getting a lot of Ukrainian soldiers killed.
	Because they're trying to, you know, run up on the tanks with the javelins.
	And you have to get within, I think, what, two kilometers or so, or 2.5 kilometers away.
	Which is within the range of the tank shooting you back, by the way.
	Those tanks can shoot quite far.
	So you're running up on the tank and you hit fire and you try to run away before the tank kills you.
	So a lot of Ukrainians are getting killed and the javelins misfire all the time.
	They're not that great.
	They don't work very well.
	And the kill rate is not what has been claimed like 93% or something.
	That's insane.
	It's probably closer to 20%.
	And then secondly, the other thing that's happening is that America's running out of munitions.
	And so is Western Europe.
	And you know who's laughing at this?
	China.
	China is watching this and just smiling, planning, plotting.
	China's saying, yeah, let's just let Russia and America just burn up all their weapons and all their missiles.
	Because then when we attack United States...
	They have nothing left to shoot at us!
	That was a little China impersonation right there.
	Apologies to Chinese people who don't sound like that.
	You got to put up with some of my really caricature cartoon voices.
	But believe me, anything goes, I make fun of everybody sooner or later, including myself.
	All those Yankees, they run out of Germany!
	Time to evade!
	And they just send the troops across from the Canadian border from the north and then, you know, from Mexico and the south.
	And then America's got nothing, nothing to defend with because all our hardware got shot up by the Russians in Ukraine.
	You know, what are you going to do when armored vehicles from China's military start crossing the southern border?
	What are you going to do?
	I mean, you're going to have to get creative, I guess.
	Run around there with paintball guns trying to blind them.
	Paintball the windshields!
	Or use the old sticky bombs from World War II. Remember that?
	You take a standard issue GI sock, you coat it in axle grease, and you put explosives inside.
	You light the fuse, and then you run up on the tank, and you throw the grease-covered sock onto the side of the tank.
	Remember?
	Remember Brothers?
	What was it?
	A band of brothers?
	Yeah?
	And then you hope that you don't get blown away by the tank.
	Before your sticky bomb explodes, and it probably won't really damage the tank, but if you're lucky, it might immobilize it.
	It might break one of the tracks, which is still pretty effective.
	If you can destroy a tank's tracks, then it's kind of a sitting duck at that point.
	But is this what America is going to have to do when the Chinese invade because we burned up all our munitions fighting the Russians over Ukraine's bioweapons laboratories?
	I mean, really?
	And by the way, going back in time at World War II, America was a manufacturing country.
	You know, America had a culture of hard work and elbow grease.
	Even the women went into the munitions factories and helped make ammunition and standard-issue GI socks and MREs and put them on freighter ships and shipped them across the Atlantic to the Allied forces fighting the Third Reich in Europe.
	And that's how America helped win the war, by the way, as allies with Russia at the time, of course, and allies with France, fighting the Germans.
	But it was America's industrial might that allowed the allies to achieve victory.
	And then America was fighting a two-front war, fighting the Japanese Empire in the Pacific theater of war, primarily with the United States Navy.
	It's taking a brutal beating through the entire time.
	Massive losses in the Pacific theater because Japanese are pretty sharp cookies when it comes to, you know, destroying things and engineering aircraft and ships that work quite well.
	You know, Japanese are really smart engineers.
	But America had the ability to manufacture everything.
	Because we were making cars.
	You could turn the car factories into tank factories.
	You could roll out bullet factories.
	You could just launch all kinds of clothing factories and rifle factories and so on.
	And the American people got to work.
	And that's how we were able to fight a two-front war and win on both fronts.
	What do you think that would look like today?
	You got the lazy, decadent culture of people who don't think they should have to work.
	People, especially the younger generation, not really experts in anything other than, I don't know, celebrity news and maybe Bitcoin trading and using their mobile phones to get more likes on Facebook.
	And they don't have a culture of work.
	They have a culture of privilege.
	It's like, give me more free stuff.
	We're going to consume more stuff.
	Never worked an honest day in their lives.
	And the manufacturing base is gone anyway.
	We don't have the machines.
	We don't have the steel mills.
	We don't have the factories.
	We don't have the infrastructure to do any of that stuff.
	America can't manufacture weapons.
	At anywhere near the pace that would be necessary not just to fight a single front war, such as with Russia, but a dual front war, such as Russia and China.
	And I do believe, by the way, that one of the main reasons why the United States is very reluctant to engage Russia right now directly is Have you noticed there aren't fighter jets blowing each other out of the sky like American fighters and Russian fighters?
	You know why?
	Because the Americans are keeping their distance.
	And you know why?
	Because the American technology doesn't work.
	For all the reasons I mentioned here.
	Because, again, they fired all the best engineers.
	You know, the smart people who could do math.
	They've replaced them with, you know, victimology libtards.
	So we have no real engineering anymore.
	We have no manufacturing base.
	We have no domestic supply chains.
	We don't even have a culture of people who want to work.
	Half our culture wants to commit suicide, which brings us back to libs of TikTok.
	We don't have the country we once had in World War II. We have a country that is a shadow of its former self.
	America has become a bloated, corrupt, dysfunctional, mentally ill criminal enterprise of global pillagers and national rapists and so on.
	That's really what America does now under these regimes like Biden and Obama and so on.
	America is in the business of printing money, creating debt.
	That's our biggest export is debt.
	We don't make much of anything anymore, with a few exceptions.
	We just don't make that much.
	So, not only can America not win a scenario like World War II, America can probably barely hold its own on some regional conflict, which is what we're seeing right now with Russia and Ukraine.
	Just shipping weapons to Ukraine, America is depleting its own supply at an alarming pace.
	What weapons is America going to have remaining?
	To defend America, if there's even any will to do so.
	Of course, there isn't, because the Biden regime isn't even willing to defend America's open borders and stop the flood of millions of migrants that are pouring into the United States right now.
	A situation that's only going to get far worse as food inflation and fuel inflation both continue to skyrocket.
	So, folks, folks, the alarm bells should be going off in your head over this Because we don't have the industrial base to manufacture the weapon systems to defend America.
	And China knows it.
	China has the manufacturing base.
	China is in the position that America was in in World War II. China can out-manufacture America and Western Europe and even Russia.
	So in any prolonged war...
	Whoever can churn out the most tanks and planes and bullets wins.
	And today that's China.
	And so out of acts of desperation, the only other kind of game changers in this field would be cyber warfare and then nuclear warfare.
	And yeah, I mean, those are kind of, you know, wildcard types of vectors of attack.
	But America is not that strong in cyber warfare.
	China is very strong.
	And then in nuclear warfare, yeah, America has the most nukes, but Russia has plenty of nukes, more than enough to destroy the whole world a thousand times over, it turns out.
	So there's no scenario that's good for America right here because America has been run by traitors decade after decade, traitors in the Senate, traitors in the House, traitors in the White House, traitors in the media, and so on.
	They've sold us out.
	Sold out our manufacturing base.
	They've run a culture war against America to eliminate the culture of honest hard work and ethics, which goes along with the culture of Christianity, by the way.
	So now we have this decrepit, despotic culture of self-induced servitude, kind of like a death cult of insane lunatics who are triggered by the thought of Elon Musk buying Twitter.
	But they don't think about the fact that America has no ability to defend itself in a world of very dangerous potential enemies such as Russia and China.
	So let me read for you from Russia's point of view on this, from Sputnik News, because it's important to see how Russia views the United States.
	They have an article with a headline, U.S. running out of javelin anti-tank missiles to send to Ukraine.
	So again, this is from Russia's point of view.
	The United States and its allies have sent 17,000 anti-tank weapons to Ukraine over the past six weeks, ranging from old Soviet-era inventory cluttering up NATO stockpiles to the FGM-148 Javelins, the anti-tank missile system.
	Let's see.
	Having transferred about a third of its inventory of Javelin missiles to Ukraine, the Pentagon may be running out of stocks critical for the security of the homeland and possible U.S. wars abroad.
	So this all comes from a man named Mark Kankian, Center for Strategic and International Studies.
	He's a researcher.
	And he says that America is currently manufacturing only about 1,000 javelins a year.
	And he says the production rate to be ramped up to 6,000 a year would take many years to reach.
	When a missile is ordered, it takes 32 months to deliver it.
	So, quote, this means it will take three to four years to replace the missiles that have been delivered so far.
	And if the United States delivers more missiles to Ukraine...
	This time to replace extends.
	And by the way, guess how much it costs for every Javelin missile, for each one?
	It's over $200,000.
	Some of them are $250,000.
	Yeah, that's a single-use weapon.
	Boom.
	Quarter of a million.
	That's what that costs.
	Yeah, no wonder the military-industrial complex is so wealthy, right?
	Getting a quarter of a million per pop for just one round of a missile.
	I mean, you spend a quarter of a million, even if you hit the target, you know, the vehicle you're blowing up is probably worth a lot less than a quarter of a million dollars.
	I mean, even if you hit, you still lose financially.
	You're spending more money making the weapons than what you're removing off the battlefield of the enemy.
	I mean, Russia can essentially make, you know, cargo carriers for $25,000 each and just roll them out almost for target practice and get America to expend all its javelins.
	At a quarter of a million dollars a pop.
	And before long, you have no javelins left.
	And then what are you going to do?
	And how much you want to bet those missile systems are using parts from China?
	Microchips that are backlogged 18 months or something.
	How much you want to bet?
	Pretty sure that's the case.
	It's pathetic, really.
	What has been allowed to happen?
	From the post-World War II strength of America, the industrial base, the work ethic, the petrodollar global currency dominant status, America had it all.
	America had the natural resources, the farmland, the culture, the hard work ethic, the strong American family.
	America had everything.
	And we flittered it all away.
	Because people, I don't know, they turned away from God.
	People wanted to be progressive, so they destroyed the family.
	They wanted abortion, so they started murdering their children.
	They wanted to have more material goods, so they worshipped money instead of ethics.
	They wanted to make more profits as business owners, so they outsourced it to China for cheap manufacturing, destroying American jobs.
	And then, of course, the American consumer wanted to buy cheap goods at Walmart, made in China.
	And so they didn't shop for made in America.
	They shopped at Walmart.
	And so they encouraged this entire system.
	And then the manufacturing base, just the bottom fell out of it all across America.
	And now, today, America can't make televisions, can't make displays, can't make computers.
	America can barely make weapons.
	What does America make?
	Again, debt.
	America makes debt.
	And also, you know, Orwellian surveillance software systems such as Google and Apple.
	Those are the biggest industries now, is spying on everybody around the world and building systems that communist regimes will use to monitor and then enslave or execute political dissidents.
	You know, that's what Apple is all about.
	Apple practically is an extension of communist China.
	And Google is an extension of the globalist deep state.
	So these are the industries that America specializes in now, industries of evil.
	Not being creative, not fighting the good fight to defeat evil, but rather, America, the industries, the top corporations have become evil.
	Look at the vaccine companies.
	Look at corporate media.
	Look at the weapons industry and big tech.
	It's all just layers of evil upon evil upon evil.
	And the bioweapons industry and hospitals and so-called healthcare, which is nothing but sick care, the mass murder of people.
	In the hospitals via ventilators and remdesivir It's just America has become a death cult that turned away from God and has embraced Satanism and demonism.
	And guess what?
	It's going to fall.
	There is no longer anything sustainable.
	The dollar isn't sustainable.
	The industrial base hardly exists.
	The culture has been largely destroyed.
	The elections are totally rigged.
	The justice system is a joke.
	The FBI has been weaponized as a terrorist operation.
	The White House is a fake soundstage somewhere in D.C. I mean, the NIH funds biological weapons crimes against humanity, and the CDC is a bunch of pharma whores who are taking taxpayer money to pay out awards for influencers to tell people to get injected with mRNA shots that are going to kill them.
	I mean, this is what America has become.
	No wonder America as we know it has no future.
	No wonder society is falling.
	And it's just that This war with Russia is exposing the fragile nature of the post-World War II system that America now relies on.
	We can't even replace the weapons that we're sending to Ukraine.
	That's a shocker.
	That should be a wake-up call to everybody.
	If we don't start manufacturing weapons systems in the United States and then using them to defend our borders, then we aren't a country.
	And if we don't have an honest money system without all this massive money printing, then we aren't a country.
	We've got to get back to a gold standard, honest government, and no more debt spending by the government.
	And that's not possible in the current environment.
	It's going to take a collapse and a reboot in order to see that happen.
	And if we don't have a healthcare system that cares about health, then we don't have a country.
	If we don't have a culture that honors the family and stops the grooming and the pedophile abuse of children, then we don't have a country.
	And right now, in America, we don't have a country.
	We have the largest corporations, most powerful influencers like Disney, grooming children, becoming pedophile hubs in the movies and in the theme parks.
	We have a corporate media that does nothing but lie to people constantly, each and every day.
	Nothing but lies.
	We have a technology sector that censors the truth and censors the voices of reason and censors the very people who represent the kind of philosophy and pillars of civilization that America needs in order to be sustainable.
	America has become so decadent and so steeped in demonism and evil and so corrupt that It is unsustainable.
	It is impossible for America to defend itself even against something very small.
	Even a small incursion by China would be very successful.
	And really, what America is going to collapse into is a third world nation with nukes.
	That's what it's going to become.
	As the dollar collapses, we'll still have the nukes.
	The nukes do work.
	Because they were engineered and built long before we had all this woke Tardia stuff.
	You know, the nukes have been working for a long time since the, what, 1970s and 80s and so on.
	And they still work because the laws of physics have not changed.
	The ICBMs can still fly.
	But the rest of America is headed for collapse.
	You know, the dollar, the food system, The industrial base, the rule of law, civility, transportation infrastructure is being meticulously shut down day by day.
	I've covered it here with you on many days.
	Education system is in shambles.
	The mega churches are all working for Satan.
	Elections are rigged.
	The media is run by traitors who are working against the interests of America and so on.
	It's kind of like even if the Republicans win in November and take control, it's control of what?
	What do you have control of?
	A collapsing, desperate system of corruption and demonism.
	You know, this system, I think Michael Snyder is correct.
	The only way...
	To dismantle this system is to let it collapse in upon itself and then be ready to reboot and rebuild on the other side of it.
	This system is so bloated, so corrupt, so evil, it can't be fixed from the inside.
	It's going to collapse and it has to collapse for there to be a future for the American people.
	So that's where this is going.
	This collapse is going to be absolutely catastrophic.
	And out of it, I don't know if America as we know it will ever be restored because so many threats internationally.
	I don't know.
	I know that the America that we know and love is alive and well in our hearts and our minds, and they can't destroy that.
	absolutely invade this country and China is planning to do that.
	And, you know, the opportune time to carry that out would be after America is weakened from a year or two of war with Russia.
	And that's exactly where things are being engineered into that direction.
	The battlefield is being shaped right now to deplete America's military resources to have them expended in Ukraine with Russia.
	And then when America is at its weakest moment, also suffering from food riots and financial collapse and so on, then China moves in.
	And carries out mass slaughter, mass genocide of the American people, occupies America's farmland, exterminates every last American citizen that they can.
	And then we're in a guerrilla war at that point where all the American people pull out their rifles and their.50 cals, and they just start going to town on the invading Chinese troops at that point.
	That's where the Second Amendment kicks in and may very well save the country.
	And that's why people have been stockpiling ammo like crazy.
	So, yeah, anybody that tries to invade America is going to be in for quite a fight.
	But then again, if they bring armored vehicles in, you know, and you don't have javelins to defend yourself, you got to start getting real creative with your guerrilla defense systems, you know, to defend your country.
	So we'll see where all this goes.
	I know I'm kind of getting ahead of myself on all this.
	These situations have not yet happened, but this is where it's headed.
	We need to be aware of that.
	And we need to be aware that America is being outmaneuvered on a global scale by the fact that we're expending all of our munitions and missiles and javelins in the theater of war in Ukraine.
	And that really most of those systems are being destroyed before they can even reach the Ukrainian military.
	So you're just basically throwing hardware down the drain because Russia is interdicting the shipments.
	And then ultimately you're going to lose the Donbass region of Ukraine and then you're going to lose America too because you have no defenses.
	And never forget, by the way, I haven't mentioned this in a while, but Governor Newsom of California has, according to our sources, made a deal with Communist China to allow the Long Beach port to be used as a beachhead for landing Chinese troops in California.
	And the libtards of California, they love communism so much, they'll actually welcome the very communist occupation that will eventually execute them all.
	Because the Chinese don't want any Americans left over, not even the ones that cooperated with the invasion.
	So don't be surprised if one day you wake up and China has invaded Taiwan and has landed troops in California and already has an operational beachhead there and is unloading tanks and mobile missile systems in California.
	Don't be surprised because the government of California is run by a bunch of traitors.
	And they have long been planning the takedown of America because they think they're going to be rewarded with some, you know, governorship or rule over the Chinese occupation of North America.
	In reality, they're all going to be executed by the Chinese if it comes to that.
	But that's their plan.
	They think that China is their friend.
	But in truth, all these Democrat governors and just Democrats on the West Coast, they're all traitors.
	They're all enemies of America.
	And they will betray this nation at every opportunity.
	And we'll see where that goes.
	We'll see what happens.
	But it's not going to be a simple thing.
	That's for sure.

	I mean, that's the good news.
	They can't kill us all.
	Many of us will survive.
	We'll make it through.
	We will be part of the rebuilding.
	God is with us.
	God is with you.
	God bless you.
	And thank you for your prayers and your support.
	I'm Mike Adams.
	Talk to you tomorrow.
	Take care.
	A global reset is coming.
	And that's why I've recorded a new nine-hour audiobook.
	It's called The Global Reset Survival Guide.
	You can download it for free by subscribing to the naturalnews.com email newsletter, which is also free.
	I'll describe how the monetary system fails.
	I also cover emergency medicine and first aid and what to buy to help you avoid infections.
	So download this guide.
	It's free.
