Time Text
Welcome to the Situation Update for Tuesday, May 17th, 2021.
Mike Adams here, and the situation today is rather dire.
And we've got a lot to cover, but I'm going to start out with a three-minute clip that was put together by the archivist for InfoWars, and it's a compilation of Alex Jones and myself...
A year ago, predicting exactly what happened this last weekend with the racially motivated shooting in Buffalo, New York at that mostly black area grocery store.
In fact, Alex called it just precisely.
He said, yeah, the deep state's going to find a mentally ill white kid and they're going to do an MKUltra on him and then they're going to unleash him.
Against a black grocery store or a black church or a black school or something like that.
So listen for the next three minutes.
You're going to hear this compilation.
Most of these statements that you hear were made by Alex Jones or myself about a year ago.
Not all of them a year ago, some less than a year ago, but many, many months ago.
So check this out.
So what are they going to do?
They're going to attack a minority church or college or grocery store, some type of minority gathering.
And they're either going to completely false flag it and do it 100% themselves, or they're going to find mentally ill, incel, white supremacist types that will really be devil worshippers, whacked out of their minds on prescription and illegal drugs.
It'll be a two- or three-man idiot squad that'll go in and start shooting black people at a church.
Then there'll be a backup team that'll kill them, claiming they committed suicide, who will then actually kill a couple hundred black people.
Because the Satanists always start shooting people and they kind of, wow, I'm actually killing somebody.
This isn't as cool as I thought.
And then they get killed by the black op team.
The black op team then kills the lion's share of the people.
They're going to want a big number, hundreds of dead black children.
So if you go to a black church or you go to a rural, say, black grocery store, you better...
Be packing.
You better be watching.
Because let me tell you, the deep states are coming.
It's going to be the whole collapse of society and you're going to be bad because you were a Republican voter, period.
That's how they intend to do this is connect the Republican Party to white supremacism and the Second Amendment to it.
That's how they plan to overturn it.
That's the whole program you're seeing right now.
But if the people are aware of it, it's over.
This is the New World Order's revolution.
This is an assault and it only gets worse from here.
And that's why no matter how much heat they get and how bad they look, and no matter how much everything they do falls apart, they are moving towards staging massive terror attacks and other crises to blame their opposition and frame us for terror so they can move directly against us.
They're going to try to launch a race war.
They're going to pull off a false flag event, try to blame, of course, the gun owners and Trump supporters and Christians and so on.
They will see if the people will comply to turn in their guns, which I believe people will not comply.
That would be insane at this point with the police being defunded and violent crime exploding all across liberal cities everywhere.
People need self-defense more than ever, including, by the way, women.
And people of color and also gays and lesbians and transgenders are buying guns more than ever before right now.
So it's the left that's buying guns more than ever.
So it's gonna make gun control very difficult among left-wing legislators.
So they're gonna try to push a false flag and they're gonna try to take the guns.
If we, the American people, if we surrender our guns, I believe we will be invaded.
They are planning, in my view, False flag terror attacks here in America to submit their rollout against us.
Massive white supremacist attack they staged.
That's all the pre-programming in the media so you know what's coming.
They're pushing for violence and preparing real false flags.
Not just guys dressed up like white nationalists to discredit the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Virginia.
But violence, my friends.
And that's why they're freaking out because that's the card they want to play.
That's the point we've gotten to.
So there you go.
You know what?
I understand that Alex Jones can be controversial and I am as well in the minds of many people.
But you can't say that we didn't see this coming because we did.
And Alex saw it coming in more detail than I did.
And he went public and he warned people about this exact scenario.
And I did as well because what Alex and I both see is And we don't plan anything together.
We don't have meetings.
I never talk to Alex.
The only time I ever talk to him is when I'm on the air, except sometimes we exchange texts about breaking news, and that's about it.
But I never talk to him.
But we see the same things happening, and we make predictions and warnings about what's coming.
And what's very clear right now is that America is being thrust into an attempted race war.
And it's going to be a very ugly scenario.
In fact, I've recorded a separate podcast about a 10 or 12 minute report that is all about the coming race war attempt and urging people to reject the hate that is being pushed by the media and pushed by the deep state and pushed by the FBI. I've recorded a separate podcast about a 10 or 12 They're trying to whip up hate between white people and black people or Asian people and black people or what have you.
Latinos and white people.
I don't know.
They're just trying to pit everybody against each other and we have to reject that.
And the way to reject that is to Reject your neurology being hijacked by the hatred that's pushed by the journo-terrorist media.
Remember, so-called journalism in the corporate media does not exist.
They are not journalists.
They are not reporters.
They're not reporting news.
They are propagandists.
They are hijacking your neurology with contrived images, with videos that are deceptively edited, with selective reporting, for example, only reporting the race of an attacker if that attacker is white.
But you never hear about the race if the attacker is a person of color, for example.
This is all manipulation by the media to try to invoke hatred because what they want is a race war in America.
Only with a race war can they achieve the kinds of things that were achieved in Yugoslavia, the total revolution, the martial law, which is what the establishment wants, and then the confiscation of firearms and also the extreme demonization of all white people, all conservatives, all Christians, and then the confiscation of firearms and also the extreme demonization of all gun owners.
You understand.
Maybe even all anti-vaxxers, as they say.
That's what this is.
And once you understand that, Then listen to this prediction, because mark my words where this is going.
They are planning something so much bigger than shooting 10 people in a grocery store.
They are planning something on the scale that Alex was actually mentioning.
They, the deep state fascists who are trying to rip this country to shreds, They want to kill hundreds of probably black children in some kind of a bloody 9-11 style or Oklahoma City style attack or bombing or something that they can blame on their political enemies so they can justify the State Department demonizing conservatives as terrorists.
But they need a—they, the tyrants, the fascists in charge, they need a much bigger event with a whole lot more blood in order to cause this massive, you know, schism, you could say, in the psyche of America's culture.
So they are absolutely planning something— Much, much larger.
And you might think, well, gosh, America's already killing black babies.
It's called Planned Parenthood, right?
It's abortion centers.
And yeah, that's true.
So just understand that the left, they don't mind murdering babies as long as it's done in the name of abortion.
But they're going to figure out a way to murder a whole lot of black children for political purposes in order to blame white people and try to set off a race war.
And what we need to do, as people who are all brothers and sisters of the same human race, by the way, and every single one of you listening to this can, you know, you can take a genetic test, you're going to find out you're X percent African anyway.
You know, because all our ancestors came from Africa, by the way, folks.
We're all African Americans, if you're an American listening to this.
Essentially, we are all brothers and sisters.
But they try to divide us, and they try to make us hate each other, try to make us attack each other.
We've got to reject that and understand that the real threat against humanity is...
The globalists, the deep state, the fascist regime, the criminal cartel that claims to be the Biden administration that actually rigged the elections, that occupies the fake White House soundstage set, and that is running a war against the American people, literally terrorizing the American people every single day from the White House, from the media, and from big tech.
And also, of course, the vaccine industry and trying to exterminate people.
So, understand who the true enemies of humanity are.
It's not the person of a different color than you.
It's not a black-skinned person, a white-skinned person, a Latino person.
No.
The real enemies against humanity are the fascists, the globalists, the criminals in charge who are trying to get us to destroy each other while they sit back in their billion-dollar bunkers and their underground cities that have been stockpiled with all the recalled pizzas and frozen ground beef and everything.
Probably a bunch of baby food disappeared down into those tunnels as well, come to think of it.
They sit back underground for a year or two and just nuke the surface of the earth and let everybody kill each other in cold-blooded murder.
That's their scenario, you understand?
They want a war on the surface of the earth because they believe they can survive in their underground cities.
Yeah, seriously.
So this explains the escalation of war with Russia.
This explains why the U.S. wants a war with China, excuse me, not Taiwan, but to defend Taiwan against China.
And by the way, that shooting that took place in that church in California, it was a Chinese, a mainland Chinese national, a man, I think 68 years old, who allegedly shot up and shot and killed Taiwanese churchgoers because he hated Taiwan because of the mainland Chinese propaganda that's anti-Taiwan, you see.
Because this hate game is played by communist China, just as it's played by the U.S. corporate media, which is actually controlled by the CIA or the White House.
All the governments of the world, they need perpetual hate.
They need perpetual terrorism.
They need perpetual violence so they can justify their own existence.
But do you understand that if all the governments of the world vanished tomorrow, that the remaining people would just live in peace?
That there would be no more terrorism.
There would be no more wars.
There would be no more hate crimes.
There would be no more white extremists shooting up a grocery store.
You know why?
Because all of those events are carried out by governments as acts of war to terrorize the people.
The governments of the world are at war with the people.
Without those governments, the people would live in peace.
Understand that based on what we know about these governments, the next most likely false flag attack or engineered terrorism in order to achieve the race riots that the controllers want, their most likely next target is going to be a school, like an elementary school in a black neighborhood with mostly black kids who are shot up kind of like Sandy Hook style.
That's probably the next thing that's going to happen because they have to use dead children on the news in order to invoke the emotional response that bypasses the reason and rationality of the human mind.
Understand that all of these false flag type of attacks, these are neurological hijacking They are using emotions and hate as weapons to control your neurology and to push you into hatred so that you might rise up and lash out against some other innocent person who has a different skin color than yourself.
So again, the next most likely target of these deep state operators is going to be an elementary school of black children.
And it's going to happen, of course, in a gun-free zone, you know, an anti-gun city of some kind, and then they're going to use it to try to set off the race war and try to have martial law, nationwide gun confiscation, and declare all guns to be illegal, turn them in, you know?
They always do this.
Look at the history of Australia and the gun control there.
And similar things have happened in European countries as well.
And many efforts have been made to try to take down the Second Amendment in the United States, but they have failed.
Think about Operation Fast and Furious, Eric Holder and Barack Obama, right?
And many other similar operations as well.
Think about Oklahoma City.
Was that 1994, I believe?
Timothy McVeigh was the patsy.
He was the sheep-dipped MK Ultra patsy put in there by the deep state while they engineered all the bombs into the, what was it, the Edward R. Murrah building in Oklahoma City and blew that sucker up with a daycare center in there.
So they could have dead babies on TV so that then Bill Clinton could blame at that time conservative talk radio, Rush Limbaugh, who was exploding all over AM radio at the time.
And that was pre-internet for the most part.
The internet hadn't really matured at that time.
So AM radio was the outlet where you could find some truth.
And they used that to try to take down Rush Limbaugh.
They blamed Rush for the Oklahoma City bombing.
That's right.
Just like they're doing now, they're blaming conservative voices online for every shooting.
It's the same playbook, folks, and they're just gonna wrap it up even more.
All right, now we're going to switch gears a little bit and go to a segment that I call Dumb and Dumber.
And we might even add to it and make it dumb and dumber and dumber-er.
We'll see.
We'll see where this goes.
But the first one is dumb.
Remember how I talked about how the leaders of the United States and European nations, such as Germany, that the leaders are cognitively retarded.
They are mentally incompetent morons who can barely speak.
They They have no cognition.
They have no conceptual framework through which to grasp the world or even describe the world.
And there's a great example of this, probably the dumbest quote I've ever heard from a White House spokesperson.
We have a new White House spokesperson now who has just replaced Jen Psaki, and this new woman is a race-obsessed White House spokesperson.
And she was asked by Ducey, I think on her first day on the job, asked by a Fox News reporter, I believe, Ducey, I think that's his name.
He was asking her, how does raising taxes on corporations fight inflation?
Because this is something that was tweeted out by the Biden White House to say, oh, we're going to fight inflation by making the corporations pay more money in taxes.
And Ducey's like, what?
How does that work?
I want you to listen to that question.
And this is just a one-minute clip.
And listen to the answer, the total nonsense answer...
By the White House spokeswoman who is cognitively retarded.
She has no ability to answer this in any meaningful way whatsoever.
Give it a listen.
Here we go.
The president's Twitter account posted the other day, you want to bring down inflation, let's make sure the wealthiest corporations pay their fair share.
How does raising taxes on corporations reduce inflation?
Are you talking about a specific tweet?
He tweeted, you want to bring down inflation, let's make sure the wealthiest corporations pay their fair share.
We have talked about this this past year, about making sure that the wealthiest among us are paying their fair share.
And that is important to do.
And that is something that, you know, the president has been, you know, working on every day when we talk about inflation and lowering costs.
And so it's very important that, you know, as we're seeing costs rise, as we're talking about how to, you know, you know, build an America that's safe, that's equal for everyone and doesn't leave everyone behind.
That is an important part of that as well.
So do you grasp the mental retardation of this woman?
She says that the way to bring down costs is to make corporations pay more.
Well, corporations are pass-through entities when it comes to costs for consumers.
You know that, right?
So what consumers pay...
It's based on what corporations have to pay in taxes, plus all of their costs, you know, labor, raw materials, building investments, whatever.
So when corporations have to pay more to the government, then corporations just raise their prices to consumers, which means that if you tax corporations more, prices to consumers go up, which is called inflation.
But this moron, lunatic woman at the White House, she thinks that the way to lower inflation is to make corporations pay more in taxes and raise their costs.
So, again, it is the opposite of reality.
But this is just like that German minister that I mentioned yesterday, it was her name, Annalena Baerbach, who's berating Russia, saying that Russia is causing, what, brutal hunger in the world, while her own country, Germany, committed economic brutal hunger in the world, while her own country, Germany, committed economic sanctions against Russia, making sure that Russia can't export wheat because Russia can't use euros or dollars any longer due to the economic deplatforming in the
So it's these leaders, these spokespeople, these ministers, they have absolutely no recognition of the reality around them.
They have no understanding of cause and effect.
They do not grasp how anything works in the real world.
And yet these are the people in charge.
That's frightening.
These low-IQ, dumb-as-dirt lunatics, whether it's German minister, White House spokesperson, some UK minister, and there's plenty of those.
There's like a million ministers in the UK ministering over everything.
They're all idiots.
They have no idea what they're talking about, and they're driving Western civilization into a scenario of total collapse, which is what I've been warning about here.
And you wonder, is it true?
Is Western civilization really going to collapse?
Well, just think about it yourself.
If civilization were to not collapse, in other words, if it were to be sustainable, wouldn't it have to be led by rational people who had logic and reason and could plan and could think ahead and could make sense when they talk and who understood ramifications of their decisions and actions? wouldn't it have to be led by rational people who That's a reasonable statement, right?
Yet time and time again, none of these people have any of those traits.
They are oblivious fools who are driving civilization into total destruction.
So that's our first example today.
That's dumb.
And now we're going to go to dumber.
Oh, this is great.
Wait till you see dumber.
So for this dumber segment, I want you to check out this photo that was published by Reuters talking about how Ukrainian soldiers have repelled Russian encouraging into the Sumi region.
So this Ukrainian military photo, if you look closely, it turns out that the guns are paintball guns and they're wearing paintball masks, you know, so you don't get hit with a paintball in the face, which is very painful, by the way.
I've played some paintball in my younger years.
And, yeah, leave some big bruises, you know, take out an eye or something if you get hit there.
But this is what Reuters thinks war is in Ukraine, that it's soldiers with paintball guns running around with paintball masks.
And, of course, Reuters was widely mocked for this because it just shows you that even the, quote, establishment media, you know, the fact checkers, they can't even check their own facts.
I mean, if you're going to show Ukrainian soldiers, wouldn't you show them with the actual rifles that they're using?
Maybe M4s or something?
But no, no, paintball.
So that's dumber.
And now...
We've got Dumberer.
Okay, get ready for Dumberer.
We have on MSNBC a military analyst.
His name is Barry R. McCaffrey.
He's a retired four-star general, and he's a propagandist for MSNBC. He posted a clip that he claimed was showing that Russian fighter jets are being shot down, the MiG-29s, shot down by an air defense system.
And this was broadcast by MSNBC, I believe.
Turns out the footage is from a video game.
That's right.
It's just from a video game.
I don't know what game it's from.
It looks pretty realistic, obviously.
But now they're posting video game footage as if...
I think Arma 3, yeah, that's the name of the video game, Arma 3.
It's an open world military tactical shooter game for the PC that was published in 2013.
So these are the fact checkers at MSNBC just rolling out video game footage and claiming this is the war in Ukraine.
So there you go.
Dumb and dumber and dumberer.
We have the dumb White House spokesperson, the dumber Reuters publishing paintball photos as Ukrainian soldiers, and then the dumberer Four-star general posting a video game clip and claiming it's Ukrainian war footage.
And remember, these are the people who claim that the independent media is spewing disinformation.
You know, these are the media outlets that claim to tell the truth about vaccines and everything.
And Russia.
And, you know, economics and elections and everything else.
They lie all the time.
It's a joke.
They're pathetic in their lies.
It's hilarious, actually.
Just unreal stuff.
Now, in kind of related news, McDonald's has decided to close all of its restaurants in Russia due to the Ukraine war.
So once again, Russia wins.
It's just incredible.
Russia is going to get healthier without McDonald's.
I mean, if you think about junk food as a weapon system against human beings, it's We have McDonald's in America that's, in my opinion, as a food science expert, McDonald's is contributing to obesity and diabetes and cancer and all kinds of degenerative conditions of the American people.
It's almost like the drive-thru at McDonald's is kind of like, sign up and shorten your life here and it will give you some chronic degenerative diseases if you keep eating this stuff.
Whereas Russia now will not have McDonald's.
Boo-hoo!
Oh, you mean so Russia's going to have to return to eating healthier food?
Like traditional Russian food and, I don't know, maybe some beans and lentils and things like that that are, you know, wholesome, nutritious foods that aren't processed and filled with artificial chemicals and flavor enhancers and processed garbage meat and so on?
Oh, wow.
So yeah, Russia is going to get healthier because of this.
And didn't a bunch of other corporations also pull out of Russia because of this, like, Didn't Pornhub pull out and Netflix and all these filthy broadcasts or streaming channels and so on?
I thought they pulled out of Russia too.
So Russia's going to have no Chicken McNuggets, no porn, no satanic Netflix childhood indoctrination videos.
Again, Russia's winning.
Russia is winning as the toxic Western culture pulls out of Russia.
When I lived in South America, I was always shocked by how Procter& Gamble had invaded South America with all the toxic products, the laundry detergent, the personal care, the deodorants, the shampoos, the lotions.
I was always shocked about how much the people of Ecuador or Peru or Central American countries, how much they loved Western products that were filled with toxic fragrance.
They just loved it.
They thought this was a step up into a first world existence as if your laundry smells like toxic perfumes all day.
They loved that stuff.
And nobody uses cologne like a South American man.
Trust me.
They're just dumping it all over themselves because they think that makes them sort of first world-ish or something.
I never understood it.
Are you kidding me?
The First World wants to be more like your ancestors.
I mean, the informed people, they want to get away from the toxins.
They want to get off the grid.
They want to live in the pristine areas of Central and South America, untouched by Western culture, which is highly, highly toxic.
But it always struck me as strange how much so many South Americans want to be more like Americans, but the Americans who know what's going up want to be more like South Americans before the rise of Procter& Gamble and McDonald's and Pizza Hut and Kentucky Fried Chicken.
It always bothered me.
You go around cities like Quito in Ecuador or Lima in Peru.
And what do you see?
It's the same toxic junk food.
It's again, it's Kentucky Fried Chicken, McDonald's, Burger King, all the same crap.
And then that's when, you know, cancer and disease rates start skyrocketing in those countries because they're eating all the toxic food that America is exporting onto the world because one of America's most prolific exports is disease.
And again, Russia has blocked the disease.
because McDonald's is pulling out.
Oh, no more McRib sandwiches for the Russians, which always leads people to wonder what the heck is in a McRib because there's no ribs in there.
The great mystery meat of the West is what that is.
That could be Soylent Green.
So we're going to get to a new video from Steve Bannon, by the way, War Room.
Very fascinating, just about a one-minute clip that you're going to want to hear.
But first, let me give a shout-out to my sponsors.
The Satellite Phone Store is our sponsor today.
The Bivy Stick is a two-way satellite-based text messaging system.
You've heard me talk about it before.
Definitely check these out as a backup communications system.
It works just like texting on your cell phone, but it doesn't use cell towers.
It uses satellites, and you use your phone to compose messages, to view them, to read them, but the device actually talks to the satellites to send and receive text messages.
It's called the Bivy Stick.
They've got a few thousand still remaining at sat123.com.
S-A-T-1-2-3.com.
And they're going to be the last retailer with any of these in inventory in America.
Mark my words, because I know some of the kind of behind the scenes of what's going on with the microchip supply and everything.
The Satellite Phone Store will be the last to have these, and they're probably going to run out.
Well, actually, there's no doubt they're going to run out.
So get them while you can, sat123.com.
Also want to just remind you that there's still the 10% discount code at DawsonKnives.
That is in effect through the end of this month, I believe.
The discount code is SpringAdams10, and that's the digits, 1-0.
SpringAdams10 will save you 10% at DawsonKnives.com.
They are an occasional sponsor here of this podcast, and they make what I consider to be the best heavy-duty, hard-use knives.
You just can't beat them.
Made in America.
Exceptional alloys, exceptional heat-treating process makes them incredibly durable, corrosion-resistant, but also resilient and sharp.
It's just incredible.
Advanced technology.
No, seriously, in the metallurgy, it's advanced tech, but that's DawsonKnives.com.
All right, now we're going to play a one-minute video from Steve Bannon, where he talks about how the system is collapsing.
Kind of wondering if Steve Bannon is listening to my podcast or something.
Not that he needs to.
I mean, he's a sharp guy, and he's put the pieces of the puzzle together himself.
But it was eerie.
When I pulled up this video clip a few hours ago, I was like, wow, it sounds just like me yesterday.
I guess we're kind of seeing the same pattern, but check this out, about a one-minute clip from Steve Bannon.
This is a collapse of a complex system.
They yammer on about the international rules-based order.
They never talk about this sense of trust that you have to have or self-organizing.
Between countries and businesses and people and all that.
And this has been shattered.
It's been shattered by their direct policies.
You're seeing, let me repeat this, the baby formula, the diesel gas, India just declared they're not going to ship any wheat out of India.
Okay?
Sri Lanka right now is absolutely burning to the ground because of food shortages.
India has just announced they're not going to ship any food outside of India.
Okay?
Back in the 1930s, this was called Beggar Thy Neighbor.
This is not about protectionism.
This is about people when they saw the complex system that kind of collapsed We're good to go.
Okay, what Steve Bannon is really hinting at here is something I've talked about from time to time, which is the collapse vulnerability of highly complex systems.
And so as we have this globalist system of logistics, very long supply lines, and just-in-time delivery, manufacturing with sometimes single-source vendors that themselves have very long supply lines, You know, crossing continents in many cases, you end up creating a system that is highly vulnerable to collapse or systemic collapse.
And this is where we are right now.
We are at the breaking point moment, or let's say the tipping point, of the collapse of Western civilization.
And very few people realize it, even those who are warning others about, let's say, the coming food riots or the food scarcity or the rising prices of diesel fuel, which Brandon mentioned, or the risk of war, international war with Russia or the erosion of the value of the dollar
and so on, you know, or the rising racial animosity that's being invoked by the media, as we talked about, more violence, more desperation, you know, hungry children, hungry babies across America, parents getting desperate, all of it.
Most people do not realize, they don't recognize what they're seeing.
They think that they are seeing isolated problems that will get individually resolved.
They think that we're going to get back to normal someday soon, as soon as the supply chain catches up, right?
They think we're going to get back to normal.
We are not getting back to normal.
You are not observing isolated events.
you're observing symptoms of a systemic cascading domino effect failure of the very structure of complex civilization.
You are watching, in other words, the early stages of the unwinding of a complex system that is now folding in upon itself under the weight of its own complexity.
And there will be no recovery from this until there is a global collapse of this system.
And in that global collapse, you will lose the benefits of complex societies, which is, for example, very low cost of production, very high production in agricultural outputs.
So the benefits of this complex system are very cheap food, very affordable fuel.
Very cheap consumer goods, cheap money even, because of the artificially low interest rates that have been kept there.
The result of all of that, which has been in place for many decades, at least since 1971, we could say, when Nixon took us off the gold standard for the U.S. dollar.
During that time, there have been, I'm just going to have to estimate here because I don't see the numbers, but a couple of billion people added to the world population, maybe more than a couple billion.
There's definitely billions.
Those billions of people We'll not be sustainable as this complex system collapses because the food will no longer be as affordable as it has been for the past couple of generations.
The fuel will not be as affordable.
You think gas prices are ever going to go back to $1.50?
Not going to happen.
Oh, you think a loaf of bread is going to go back to $1.50?
No, not going to happen.
The prices that you saw during the Trump era, those are the lowest prices that you will ever see again.
Because we are losing, again, we're losing the efficiencies of complex societies because we're losing the international marketplace of buying and selling and trading freely without economic sanctions and with shipping working and without lockdowns and without bioweapons being released on the world and so on.
All of that is gone and it is gone forever.
Everything's going to get more expensive from here forward, and it's going to push many people past the margins of what they can afford in order to just feed their families.
So you are looking at global famine and starvation and uprisings around the world.
Now, Steve Bannon mentioned Sri Lanka, and I'm glad he mentioned that because I have a note here.
Crisis hit Sri Lanka has enough petrol left for only one day, new leader warns.
This is from news.sky.com, so Sky News.
Two shipments of petrol and two of diesel, petrol means gas, what we would call gasoline, using an Indian credit line could provide relief in the next few days, Ranil Wikremensinghe said, but the country is also facing a shortage of 14 essential medicines.
So apparently Sri Lanka has only enough fuel to last one day With the possibility of power outages lasting up to 15 hours a day, warned the new Prime Minister.
Oh boy.
Understand in Sri Lanka there's already riots.
They're already burning down the homes of the so-called leaders, like literally just going and burning their houses down.
You thought Antifa was bad.
Check out the Sri Lanka riots.
They're burning down the homes.
They've run out of fuel.
They've run out of medicines.
And the country, by the way, defaulted on dollar-denominated national debt.
That was, what, a couple of weeks ago.
The country is in collapse.
And Sri Lanka is just kind of an early indicator.
You know, it's the canary in the coal mine of what's coming for the world.
It just hit Sri Lanka first because Sri Lanka was the most vulnerable.
Guess who's next?
Middle Eastern countries, African nations, Western European nations, and then, yes, the United States of America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan.
Actually, Japan goes higher up in that list because they're going to get hit much more quickly.
And a lot of Southeast Asian nations as well.
So China's got its own economic problems at the same time, but China does a better job of planning ahead and stockpiling food so that their people don't starve, by the way.
So, watch Sri Lanka, because this is going to be a very strong indicator of what's coming for the rest of the world.
Now, the other thing contributing to this is that according to a well-respected analyst, Scott Ritter, Russia is no longer well-positioned to achieve a quick, decisive victory in Ukraine.
And I've recorded a special report about 10 minutes in duration or so.
I recorded it earlier separately that I'm going to insert here to give you the full analysis because it covers the surrender of troops from the Azovstal steel factory, as well as Scott Ritter's analysis of what's happening with U.S. artillery units or hardware successfully making as well as Scott Ritter's analysis of what's happening with U.S. artillery units or hardware successfully making it But why I'm a little bit skeptical of Scott Ritter's analysis and I explain why in this kind of standalone recording.
So let's go to that now and then...
When that wraps up, I'll have some other news and comments on the other side.
All right, for this section, we're going to talk about Ukraine and Russia because there have been some developments, a couple of interesting things that have taken place.
Number one, it is confirmed that around 50 occupants of the Azov steel mill have indeed surrendered to the Russians.
This has been confirmed by Ukraine.
There are rumors that the number of people surrendering is in the hundreds, but that hasn't been confirmed yet.
So what we do know, 50 have surrendered.
There are hundreds more apparently who have not yet surrendered.
Some of those who have surrendered are quite severely injured and have been taken to the hospital.
And there was some kind of exchange that was taking place here that Russia wanted some of its POWs back in exchange for some of these POWs, but it wasn't clear.
I don't know.
Maybe some of it was lost in translation.
It wasn't clear to me reading the stories what was actually going on.
But over the next couple of days, it seems altogether likely that That the remaining occupants of the Azovstal factory are going to probably surrender.
Now, remember, it is rumored that there are French national military advisors and there are some Brits who are also military people and a few Americans in there as well.
There's also been a rumor that one former U.S. admiral has already been arrested, although he was retired from the military.
Again, these are all in the category of unconfirmed reports.
They may or may not pan out.
But remember that I had intel a few weeks ago that sources told me there would be NATO military personnel who would be captured and then would admit to taking part in war crimes involving the biological weapons factories in eastern Ukraine.
This could be just a real ace in the hole for Russia, if in fact that is true.
I mean, we'll see.
Could also be that those individuals maybe committed suicide or maybe they were killed by colleagues in order to prevent these secrets from being obtained by the Russians.
We just don't know yet, but that's the latest on Azov's stall.
It looks like that situation is concluding pretty soon here, probably within the next few days.
Now, the next important piece in all of this is that intelligence analysts or I should say weapons analyst Scott Ritter has dramatically changed his perception of the status of the war between Russia and Ukraine.
And previously he had said that Russia was in control with a commanding, decisive victory at hand in order to carry out Russia's goals, which were not taking over Kiev or every other city in Ukraine, but rather demilitarizing which were not taking over Kiev or every other city in Ukraine, but rather demilitarizing Ukraine, which involves And that has been done.
And also denazifying Ukraine in Russia's words, that has not necessarily been accomplished until the entire Donbass region is controlled by Russia, which Russia is in the process of doing that, but it hasn't been accomplished yet.
Russia's been moving rather slowly for the last few weeks as Ukraine has been running a stalling operation, ordering soldiers not to back down from their positions.
So Russia has been shelling them with a lot of artillery and causing very high casualty rates, a lot of attrition in the ranks of the Ukrainian military.
But Ukraine also has a lot of Men still remaining who are still somewhat effective, although they're not getting the supplies they need.
Lack of food and medical supplies and ammunition has been impairing their ability to fight effectively.
But Scott Ritter has now changed his assessment of the situation.
And I listened to a couple of interviews from Ritter.
Over the weekend.
And it appears that the entire basis for his change of opinion is the fact that U.S. artillery is making its way to the front lines of the conflict in the hands of the Ukrainian military and that those artillery units are being deployed in an effective manner against Russia.
So I think Scott Ritter was surprised that these weapons were not successfully interdicted by Russia, that they were able to get all the way across Western Ukraine to Eastern Ukraine and into the hands of Ukrainian troops with whatever amount of training is necessary to run those artillery units.
So Ritter now says that he thinks Ukraine has a much better position than his previous assessment.
And the longer this is delayed, the more Ukraine gets support from NATO and the more equipment comes flooding in, especially the so-called $40 billion that the U.S. wants to send to Ukraine, which Senator Rand Paul blocked.
Because Rand Paul said, you know, sending money to Ukraine is not going to stop the collapse of America.
We need to shore up our problems here at home first.
But nevertheless, if that $40 billion makes its way to Ukraine, although you have to subtract like $35 billion to go into the pockets of all the weapons manufacturers and, you know, greasing the hands of the senators and State Department officials who are all corrupt and they're all getting kickbacks and bribes and everything. greasing the hands of the senators and State Department officials There might be $5 billion or maybe $2 billion that actually ends up in Ukraine.
That's still a lot of money.
A couple of billion dollars?
That buys a lot of weapons.
So Scott Ritter thinks that as long as the West keeps pouring money and weapons into Ukraine, that Russia is not going to be able to win this now.
Now, again, his assessment is really based on a couple of assumptions, and it makes me kind of wonder, where is Scott Ritter getting this?
Because he's been known as a very cool-headed, meticulous analyst ever since the Gulf War days.
Scott Ritter has never been afraid to buck the establishment narrative.
He's never been afraid to tell it like it is.
And he's always been evidence-driven.
But to see him flip-flop so radically on Ukraine...
And it does bring up quite a number of questions, actually.
Like, where is he getting this?
Although I would say that Scott Ritter is one of the most experienced analysts in the world on weapon systems and deployment and conflict zones and so on.
He's certainly more qualified than almost anyone that I can think of.
More qualified than anyone in the media and more qualified than myself by far.
So you do have to give him a certain amount of credit, a certain amount of weight to his intelligent, informed opinion.
Nevertheless, he's assuming that a lot of other weapon systems that are making their way to Ukraine will be as simple to operate as artillery systems.
And I think that he may be overlooking the complexity of the other systems.
I mean, it's one thing to send artillery in.
And you can train men on artillery relatively quickly because artillery is pretty simple.
You know, you set the charge on the shells.
You know, you choose the angle.
You aim, you fire, you have a spotter, you get feedback, and then you adjust, and then you do it again.
It's not a super complex system.
And I understand that's...
I just oversimplified it.
For those of you in the military, you're like, well, it's not actually that simple.
Okay.
But it's...
Artillery is not as complex as, say, running, you know, a tank or an anti-aircraft vehicle or anything of that kind, or surface-to-air battery system, you know?
The training requirements for these other systems, or aircraft for that matter, are so much more complex than artillery that you can't safely assume that just because artillery made it to the front lines of Ukraine, that therefore also all these tanks are going to make it and be effective and anti-aircraft systems and aircraft and so on.
It just doesn't work that way, especially when you have all these combined...
Different manufacturers, different countries providing tanks or tracked vehicles, and they don't really work well together.
They don't have interchangeable parts.
They don't use the same comms systems or even frequencies in many cases or encryption.
They are not interoperable.
They're not designed to work together, and they don't work together.
So, you know, you can't just throw together a hodgepodge of all kinds of equipment made in different decades from different nations, different languages and different, you know, parts and just throw all that onto the battlefield and expect the soldiers to suddenly be an expert in running every single system.
Like, here, run this Russian tank.
And here, run this American tank.
And then when that blows up, you know, go ahead and run this German tank.
You know, it doesn't work that way.
It takes...
Frankly, it takes a couple of years to train a tank commander to be effective.
So you can throw hardware at this situation, but you can't make hardware automatically effective.
Whereas artillery is different.
Artillery can be used very quickly.
So Scott Ritter, his assessment is that Russia is going to need to escalate this into a true war type of conflict, that Russia is going to need to get serious, or that Russia will be defeated by all of this hardware flowing in from NATO nations or that Russia will be defeated by all of this hardware flowing in from Is Scott Ritter right about that?
I don't know.
I guess history will tell.
But he is one of the most qualified probably, so we can't really dismiss his opinion right away.
But that's my assessment of the situation in Ukraine and Russia.
Okay, so getting back to more news about NATO and the European Union and the war with Russia and so on, I've got to bring you this comment from Erdogan of Turkey, of course.
And he is opposing Sweden and Finland joining NATO because he says specifically that Sweden and Finland are supporting terrorists.
He says, quote, Sweden is a breeding ground for terrorists and Sweden and Finland do not have a clear position against terrorism.
Well, of course Sweden is a breeding ground for terrorists because Sweden is one of these socialist, progressive, left-wing, globalist countries, a small country of mostly socialist, left-leaning, kind of really arrogant people who allowed their country to be overrun by Middle East terrorists.
And now Sweden is actually a terrorist recruitment and training hub, and these terrorists are threatening other NATO members like Turkey.
This is what Erdogan is talking about.
So Western Europe is in the process of being completely overrun, which is why I've said we are observing the fall of Western civilization.
Western Europe is going to collapse first, and then America after that, at least America as we know it, and also Japan is going to have a financial collapse in the midst of all this, and we'll probably be in a war with China and a war with Russia.
But anyway, understand that Finland and Sweden are being pressured to join NATO because NATO wants a Russian neighbor, i.e. Finland, to be able to carry out a false flag operation to blame on Russia in order to justify a NATO invasion of Russia as part of the to be able to carry out a false flag operation to blame on Russia in order to justify a NATO invasion of Russia as part of
But remember, NATO wants to invade Russia, even if it's a small incursion that is quickly defeated because NATO wants to be able to push out the propaganda to say, oh, we invaded Russia.
They wouldn't use the term invaded.
They would say, you know, we took the battle to Russia.
We defeated their defenses.
And I don't know, they're going to compare it to like attacking Hitler in World War II, which is really quite absurd since, you know, Hitler was the Nazi.
And in Ukraine, you got the Azov battalions that are the Nazis today.
So Russia is the anti-Nazi force both in World War II and in this war.
And yet America is going to claim that they're defeating Nazis when America is actually allied with Nazis.
So, you know, it gets convoluted.
Pretty crazy situation.
But nevertheless, they're trying to push Finland and Sweden to join NATO. And Turkey is currently saying no.
And, you know, I don't blame Turkey for that.
It's also going to lead to a very dangerous escalation into World War III if Finland in particular joins NATO. Now, what else is fascinating about all this is now being reported that there are 20 countries that are on Russia's unfriendly list.
These 20 countries are now buying gas and oil energy exports in rubles.
Now, not directly.
They are doing the two accounts with Russian Central Bank.
They're depositing euros or dollars into one account, and then those euros and dollars get converted into rubles, and then they're using the rubles to make the purchases.
So that's kind of the setup, or at least the simplified version of that.
So 20 countries are now buying gas in rubles.
Which is not surprising because they need Russian gas in order for their economies to function.
But isn't it interesting that the media isn't talking about that, how 20 countries have essentially broken the sanctions and are doing exactly what Putin demanded, which is to support the ruble and pay in rubles effectively for these exports.
And this is why Russia is making huge profits right now on its energy exports, which means that these same European countries that claim they're trying to defeat Russia, they're actually paying Russia, they're paying a premium for gas and energy products they're paying a premium for gas and energy products that is giving Russia billions of dollars in unexpected revenue that Russia is able to then turn around and invest in more wartime production.
So in effect, Western Europe is sending Russia the money that Russia needs to ramp up its war that's going to engage Western Europe at some point here, you know, when NATO attacks.
So while the United States is trying to send $40 billion to Ukraine, Russia is making tens of billions on energy exports and using the profits from that, in part at least, to fund its war effort.
But there's something else to this.
The EU has backed off from its decision that they were going to block all energy exports from Russia.
They backed off of that, and they now say that it's okay for European countries to make payments in euros or dollars to Moscow and then have Moscow convert that into rubles in order to buy the energy.
So now the EU is saying, yeah, we're all going to have to pay in rubles effectively, but they're just using word games to claim that they're only paying in dollars or euros.
No, they're converting euros into rubles, and then they're buying in rubles, but they don't want to admit that.
They're doing exactly what Putin demanded they do.
So the EU could not hold out against Russia.
You know, the EU could not stick to its guns on this total energy embargo.
Why?
Because European nations were going to suffer a catastrophic industrial collapse.
I mean, Germany can't function without electricity.
I mean, no modern country can function without electricity or even with rolling blackouts that make industry unreliable.
So they're paying in rubles, effectively.
Well, here's the next question.
Now, start thinking ahead about where this goes.
Russia is making huge money right now by selling energy to Western Europe.
Finland is about to join NATO. When Finland joins NATO, which will happen, Finland will probably be accepted because Turkey will be appeased in some way.
Turkey will end up voting to approve.
Trust me on that.
That's the way this is going.
Then NATO is going to do the false flag against Russia, probably sometime in June.
And then NATO is going to attack Russia in a total escalation of global war.
At that time, don't you think that Russia will cut off all energy to Western Europe?
Of course they will.
Of course they will.
Because at that time, we're going to be in a world war and it's pretty obvious that Russia and China are going to tag team together on this.
Russia and China are going to be allies in a war against Europe and America.
And I'm not sure how India falls in this because India has had border disputes with China, but India is a trading partner with Russia.
India is also a trading partner with the United States.
India is kind of in the middle ground on this.
I don't know how that's going to go.
And frankly, I'm not sure how Turkey is going to go either.
But we do know how Japan is going to go.
Japan is going to go.
It's going to have a total economic collapse, by the way, or a currency collapse of the yen.
Central bank collapse.
But Western Europe is going to be destroyed because of the lack of energy being cut off from Russia, while at the same time the United States is viciously attacked by China.
I wouldn't be surprised if China unleashes its invasion against the United States once they determine that the U.S. has expended most of its weapons in Ukraine trying to fight Russia.
So the United States will be in a two-front war The U.S. will have sent a whole lot of equipment over to Ukraine, leaving the United States domestically vulnerable to China's invasion, which will begin...
Actually, China's invasion will happen in three places.
They'll send troops from the north, from Canada, with the approval of the treasonous criminal Justin Castro Trudeau.
They will also send troops north from Mexico in conjunction with the Mexican narcos who have been trained by Chinese military leaders to use drones for surveillance and intel gathering, SIGINT analysis, and also routes of invasion and so on.
But also China will land ships in California at the Long Beach port area with the permission of Governor Newsom of California.
So China will have troops coming from the north, the south, and the west, while America will have most of its attention in Ukraine.
And at that time, America will be in grave danger of being occupied and conquered by something like a few million Chinese troops, mainland Chinese troops.
Yeah, you think that scenario can't happen?
Read your history.
That scenario is extremely likely to happen, and it could begin actually real soon here.
And it's also likely that there is an arrangement that's being made between China and Russia, where Russia will be allowed to expand the former Soviet empire to territory that is much larger than the former USSR, For example, Russia will expand westward.
They will take Poland.
They will take, of course, Belarus.
They will take Hungary.
They will take Germany past Berlin.
They will continue, and Russia will continue.
Probably conquer almost all of Western Europe, including France and Spain and Italy and Greece and so on.
The UK, not clear.
But Russia will definitely expand into a whole lot of Western Europe as Western Europe fails.
Meanwhile, China will be conquering the continental United States, North America, but also the Hawaiian Islands.
Russia will probably go for Alaska.
So it's going to be hard to know in advance how this is all going to be divvied up.
And then eventually Russia and China will turn against each other.
But that's many years in the future.
Right now they have a common enemy, which is the West.
And they are going to work together to defeat the West.
Now, as all of this is happening, it's going to go nuclear.
Have no illusions.
Because the U.S. will be forced into it, actually.
The first nukes might be fired by the United States.
The U.S. is going to end up probably nuking Beijing and maybe trying to nuke Russia, and Russia will respond with nuclear weapons or perhaps first strike attacks against certain targets in Poland.
But this thing almost certainly goes nuclear.
And you might wonder, well, how do we back away from all of this?
How do we prevent this?
And the answer is trade.
You know, what's the saying?
If goods and services don't cross borders, then tanks and soldiers will.
If you want to stop the fighting and get us back to peace, then you've got to open up the trade routes, which means you've got to stop the economic sanctions.
And you've got to stop the aggression of NATO, which continues to try to expand eastward.
And you've got to stop the globalist cartel of criminals that are trying to exterminate humanity with these vaccines and bioweapons coming out of the U.S. and China.
In effect, you've got to take down the globalist cartel.
That's the only way to get back to peace.
That's the only way to prevent a nuclear war.
Because the way this is going, with America's desired expansion, or even desired destruction of Russia and destruction of China, this only goes badly, and it ends up in World War III, and it ends up with Chinese troops in the United States.
And when I say in the United States, I'm talking about coming into Arizona, California, northern Washington.
So it's going to be initially probably these western states of America are going to be hit with invading Chinese forces.
Remember, I interviewed J.R. Nyquist about this, who told me about the pre-staging of all the Chinese equipment, the mortars, the uniforms.
They have...
Police uniforms and first responder uniforms in warehouses that are sitting and ready for activation.
They've got weapons.
They've got full auto weapons.
Remember the ATF seizing the shipments coming into the United States of the drop-in full auto triggers and seers for AR-15s and also AK-47s and also all these illegal suppressors and all kinds of Chinese-made night vision equipment and so on.
This is already pre-staged all across America, including probably, my guess, hundreds of thousands of rounds of mortar ammunition, Chinese-made mortar.
Oh, and I'm just reminded, don't forget about the other intel from maybe a year ago, that there were surface-to-air missiles that had gone missing that were being tracked by the State Department, but China smuggled them into the United States across the southern border and I forgot the details of how many missiles that was,
But they were SAMs, surface-to-air missiles designed to take down aircraft, but it could include commercial aircraft or passenger jets, for example.
Not just military aircraft.
But that's been smuggled in.
And don't forget about the super-secret Chinese drone that was surveilling the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base near Tucson, Arizona, and that was famously tracked by the police helicopter.
I don't know if it was the Tucson police or what it was.
They were trying to follow this drone, which was just surveilling the military base there.
And this was all written up by that publication called The Drive, thedrive.com.
Again, it's kind of an older article, but I covered it last year.
China has been surveilling the military bases with advanced optics in these super advanced drones that could outfly and outmaneuver police helicopters, by the way.
These are not like off-the-shelf DJI drones.
These are custom military drones that are being launched from Mexico.
They're controlled by Chinese troops, which are stationed there, and they are surveilling all the terrain and all the military assets that We're good to go.
Race riots or civil war or food scarcity or dollar collapse or whatever the case may be, that's when China attacks, when America is the most vulnerable.
And China attacks, again, from the north, the south, and the west.
And then we're going to have a domestic guerrilla war on our hands where American patriots using AR-15s and all sorts of homemade explosives and such are trying to take out invading communist Chinese troops.
While the Biden regime will be on the side of China trying to destroy America, you see, because Biden is a Chinese puppet.
And if you don't believe me, just look at Hunter Biden's laptop emails, which have also been released.
That dude is so compromised.
The whole Biden family is so compromised by China.
It's just unreal.
Total criminal cartel is in charge of the United States government right now.
And they are plotting against America.
They are traitors.
They want to see America invaded and taken down by the communist Chinese.
And unless something changes, they're going to get what they want.
We are on the path to this scenario.
I'm sorry to say it so bluntly, but you need to know this because there are a whole lot of analysts and publishers and voices and so on that are not yet realizing the gravity of the situation we're in.
And, you know, kudos to Alex Jones because he gets this.
He has understood this for a long time.
And there are other people who understand the gravity of the situation, like Brandon Howes, And I've been on his show several times, and he broadcasts on Brighteon.tv, by the way.
Brannon absolutely gets it.
He understands the gravity of the situation.
He was reporting on the hidden missile systems in the containers, the shipping containers, a couple of years ago.
He gets it.
There are a few of us who get this.
But by and large...
What we see across even the independent media is a failure to understand the gravity of the situation where we are.
There's an unwillingness to, quote, go there.
And a lot of publishers just don't want to go there because it just sounds too radical.
Oh, America being invaded by China?
No, how could that be?
Well, just wait.
Remember, people like Alex Jones and myself were the ones who sounded the warning over everything that you've seen unfold over the last couple of years.
The bioweapons, the depopulation vaccines, the attacks on freedom of speech, the financial attacks on conservatives, on and on and on.
We predicted all of it.
We laid it out in advance.
And I'm telling you now, we're being set up for a Chinese invasion.
We're being set up for it.
And actually, if you think about it, if you understand that Russia and China already have an agreement about this, then you understand that Russia, their operation in Ukraine is actually a fixing maneuver to occupy America's military hardware in that theater, making America vulnerable to an invasion by China.
You see?
Think bigger.
Think bigger.
Think that America is spending months and months shipping everything in the military over to Poland and dedicating tanks and planes and artillery and, you know, javelins.
How many javelins do we have left in America's arsenal when we shipped thousands of them over to Ukraine?
How many do we have left?
Not that many!
How are you going to fight Chinese tanks when they land in California or they roll up through Mexico?
How are you going to fight Chinese tanks when you don't have anti-tank weapon systems?
What are you going to do?
Run around with paint guns like Reuters shows us?
It's like, hit them with green paint!
You're going to have to go back to World War II sticky bombs, you know?
Standard GI issue sock with axle grease and explosives in it, and somebody gets to run up there and stick it on the tank axle and try to blow the tracks off that sucker.
Good luck with that.
You know, it's a high-risk business approaching tanks on foot, by the way, in case you're wondering.
They have, you know,.50 caliber machine guns, not even counting the main gun.
So yesterday I said that you're living, if you're in America, you're living in a kill zone.
Today I'm warning you, you're about to be living in a war zone.
You thought the war was only in Ukraine?
Think again.
The war is coming to America.
If you live in Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington, you're going to be in a war zone.
And if you live in a city, you might be living in a radioactive fallout zone real soon here.
No joke.
And by the way, the western half of the United States has no future because there's no water.
And the regulators in California just canned a desalination plant that was going to provide water to, I don't know, half a million people or something in California.
And the environmentalists said, no, it can't have that.
Oh, guess what?
There's something else here.
I know I'm getting late on time, but I forgot to tell you about this.
Dirty bomb drills are now being run in Austin, Texas.
And this was reported on Infowars.
This is from a story by Adan Salazar.
Radiological exercise in Austin, Texas to feature low-flying aircraft attack simulation.
Feds are warning that the public may see first responders in PPE using radiological monitoring and detection equipment, as well as a radiological attack simulation during, quote, cobalt magnet 22 drill.
This is only an exercise, says the Austin mayor.
Cobalt Magnet 22.
Jeez.
So this is being conducted by the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration, the NNSA. Okay, this is supposed to be preparing us for radiological threats, and this is written up by the NNSA. And if you're wondering why they're calling it cobalt magnet, okay?
So you've got to understand about the table of elements.
And, you know, look at cobalt, atomic number 27.
Let's see.
Cobalt 60 is, okay, the normal atomic mass.
Let me see if I can find the isotopes of cobalt.
So if you look at the cobalt isotopes, and I didn't realize how many isotopes there are of cobalt, but there's a lot.
It ranges in masses from 47 to, what, 75?
So cobalt-60 is a synthetic radioactive isotope of cobalt.
It's produced artificially in nuclear reactors, and it's used in industry, I believe.
It is used in...
It's sterilizing medical equipment and in foods.
So it is a source of gamma rays, it looks like.
I'll have to look at this.
Cobalt-60 has a half-life of 5.3.
Two, seven years.
Okay.
So that tells us a lot right there.
So the half-life of cobalt-60, a shorter half-life means it emits a lot more radiation in a shorter amount of time, even compared to something like cesium-137, which has a half-life of, I believe, 29 years.
So a half-life of 5.2 years, remember that it takes 10 half-lives for a radiological isotope to be considered gone.
So this means that if you have a dirty bomb incident with cobalt-60, that you would render an area unusable, Uninhabitable for 52 years, roughly.
52, 53 years.
Something in that range, which is a long time.
But it also means that cobalt-60 gives out more energy than cesium-137 gram per gram because the half-life is shorter, so it's actually converting more mass into energy on a shorter timescale.
So cobalt-60 is...
Again, use in medical sterilization and food sterilization, which means that it is accessible by terrorists who are looking to build dirty bombs.
That's what this exercise is all about, but it's also an indication that somebody in the...
Which group was this again?
Somebody at the NNSA believes that there may be a dirty bomb incident.
Now, why would they think that?
Well, I've got other intel that I haven't even talked about yet, and I'm not going to get into all the details at all because I'm almost out of time.
But this intel...
It says that the U.S. State Department is expecting radicalized Middle East originating terrorists to make their way to the United States using the refugee migration channels from Ukraine.
So in other words, they're going to go to Ukraine and then they're going to make their way into Western Europe.
And from there...
Probably acquire passports or some kind of ID that's necessary to pretend to be an EU member.
And then they'll probably just fly to the United States.
They don't even have to walk across the border.
And once they're in the U.S., they would then be able to acquire Cobalt-60 and build their dirty bomb weapon systems, which they would combine with kinetic explosives, which are readily available to make if you're, I guess, a highly trained Middle Eastern terrorist.
You probably know how to do all that stuff, making pipe bombs like in the first Terminator movie.
Didn't he make, he just went to the grocery store and bought that stuff.
Remember that?
Kyle Reese was like, we're making pipe bombs, lady.
And he just went to the grocery store, came back with, I don't know, ammonia and like scary chemicals and stuff.
He put it together in a hotel room.
Remember that?
Well, anyway, just like, oh my gosh, these Middle Eastern terrorists are going to be doing that and then combining it with Cobalt-60.
So what they can do, obviously, is they can roll into a city like Austin, which is where these drills are happening, and they can set off, you know, a dirty bomb.
And they can render a city like Austin uninhabitable for 53 years.
Just saying.
Because you can't go in there.
There's too much radiation.
Or you're going to create, you know, mass panic, which is probably the whole point of this.
Like, the U.S. attacked with a radiological dirty bomb.
You know, that's never happened in history.
And even back in the 1970s, a three-mile island radiation leak was nothing.
It was nothing.
It was a little tiny leak.
I mean, compared to Fukushima, it doesn't even compare.
Orders of magnitude different.
You set off a radiological bomb in America, then that allows the Biden administration to declare martial law and declare basically a military-run domestic war scenario in which they can attempt gun confiscation, you see.
I wouldn't be surprised if the deep state is in on it.
They're probably handing the terrorists the Cobalt 60.
Here you go.
Have all this medical imaging equipment.
Just harvest the Cobalt out of there.
But anyway, that's where cobalt comes from.
That's why this exercise is named Cobalt Magnet.
Now, why magnet?
Well, because terrorists are attracted to Cobalt-60.
That's why.
That's where it gets its name, no doubt.
I mean, no one told me that.
It just makes sense.
So understand, even though this would be a nuclear event, I mean, nuclear is not really the right term, because it's not a nuclear detonation.
It's not fission in a nuke.
It's just radiological isotopes being blown into smithereens, basically using traditional kinetic explosives.
But if properly aerosolized, Or put into, you know, the right air currents or maybe even distributed via a drone or something.
Maybe a Chinese-made drone flying over Austin, dropping Cobalt-60 down 6th Street or something, you know?
There's all kinds of horrifying scenarios that could be pursued in order to do this, you know?
Not a good thing.
And then everybody's going to be running around trying to buy miso.
Miso soup.
Read your history.
Understand why, following Hiroshima and Nagasaki, why people in Japan were eating so much fermented soy miso.
There's a reason for it.
There is a health reason for it when exposed to radiation.
By the way, just another little tidbit that you might only hear right here on the Situation Update.
So the overall point I'm trying to make here is that The global war is coming to America.
Maybe that should be the title of this.
The war is coming to America.
We're going to be hit with weapons in America, radiological or nuclear or certainly cyber warfare attacks.
And by the way, some Russians put out a big warning.
I think it's called Kill Net.
Obviously, I don't speak Russian, so I don't know exactly what they said, but Reportedly, they put out a warning that they're going to be attacking through cyber warfare all the NATO countries in the United States, trying to target power grid functions and so on with all kinds of cyber attacks.
We don't know when that's coming, but we know it probably is coming, and a new warning was put out.
Again, I think it's called KillNet, but the U.S. is going to be hit with Many different types of attacks and probably an invasion, and you are going to be living in a battlefield, an active war zone, if you live in America.
Doesn't mean that you should flee America.
I'm not fleeing America, because I live in Texas, and Texas is going to fight for Texas.
There's no question about that.
And I'm pretty sure Idaho is going to fight for Idaho, too.
I think Utah is going to fight for Utah.
I mean, California may surrender the Chinese, but there's a lot of states that will not surrender.
They will fight.
And Texas is one of those states.
Heck, probably Arizona is one of those states, too.
So things are about to get super dicey, but you're going to find yourself living in a war zone, and you're going to find yourself thinking how good...
Yeah, even during the COVID lockdowns and forced vaccines, those are going to be the good times.
Compared to what's coming when you have no fuel, no food, power grids down, countries getting nuked or bombed with radiological terror attacks.
You're living under martial law.
All your guns are made illegal.
And, you know, the government's just going door to door, murdering conservatives and Christians.
Like, that's what's coming.
So, sorry, I don't have any positive spin on any of that, except maybe to say this is the process through which the mass awakening does occur, ultimately, among the survivors.
And that's why we get prepared, folks.
That's why we get ready for what's coming.
It's far worse than what most people have imagined.
Far worse than what most media are willing to report.
It's so bad that That the United States of America as we know it, and I've been making this prediction for at least five years, will no longer exist by the end of 2025.
There will not be a USA as you have known it.
That's an easy prediction to make.
And the population of survivors will be much smaller than the current population.
There won't be 330 million Americans by that time.
We're going to be lucky to have 200 million.
But we'll see how it goes.
Well, thank you for listening.
Sorry I don't have awesome, great news for you today.
Just trying to give you the real story of where things are going.
And God willing, I'll be with you tomorrow.
In the meantime, get prepared.
Stay informed.
Spread the word.
Let people know.
This is the do-or-die moment for not only each of us individually, but also for our nations and our civilization.
And maybe, just maybe, maybe we can defeat these globalists and prevent all of this from happening.
Wouldn't that be awesome?
Kind of feel like if we could get Trump back in the White House, we could stop most of this.
I don't think China would invade America if Trump were in the White House.
What do you think?
I think Trump would pull us out of war with Russia and Russia.
Halt war with China, and Trump would probably reestablish trade, and prices would start to fall, and the oil would flow again, and we could maybe get back to normal.
But how's Trump going to get back in the White House?
When, you know, all the officials in our country are corrupt, criminals, traitors, even most of the Supreme Court, too.
So, I don't know.
We'll see.
Maybe the reason this gets so bad is because we get to the point where the miracle that saves us has to be an act of God.
Maybe that's why this is getting so bad, because when God intervenes, We will know only God could have saved us from this impending doom.
Maybe that's what's going to happen.
Keep the faith, folks.
And thank you for your support.
I'm Mike Adams.
I'll be with you again tomorrow.
