Welcome, everyone, to this emergency interview with our featured guest today, Matt Bracken.
And Matt Bracken, a former Navy SEAL, incredible author.
His books are practically, I mean, in my view, it's almost prophetic what his books have His books are Enemies, Foreign, and Domestic.
He's got the whole series.
You can check out his website, enemiesforeignanddomestic.com.
Welcome to the show today, Matt.
It's always an honor, sir, to have you on.
The honor is mine.
I'm very pleased to be back on during these events in Southern California.
Yeah, things are really getting very interesting, to say the least.
You know, when they started breaking out over the weekend, I told my producer, I said, you've got to invite Matt Bracken on.
And that was, I think, Sunday.
And I'm so thankful that you accepted that.
And then I saw that you were on with Alex Jones on Monday.
So Alex and I were thinking the same thing, like, let's get Matt Bracken, you know?
And that was a great interview you had with Alex Jones.
So, you know, thank you for doing that.
But can you give us a summary of what you think the situation is shaping up for?
Well, just for background, I was living in Southern California and San Diego in the early 2000s.
And I was already writing Enemies, Foreign and Domestic, but these events were happening in Southern California, this is 20 years ago, where at a high school, the American flag was pulled down, the Mexican flag was put up, and there were a lot of rallies that were directed towards amnesty.
That was the call then, amnesty.
And so it doesn't matter, you know, this generation, this decade, next decade.
There will be a buzzword or a catchphrase, but, you know, the radical Latinos in the Southwest, going back, you know, to literally the late 60s, the left radical, same period of, you know, the different other radical organizations, the Weather Underground and the, you know.
They formed at the same time, and they have never gone away.
Yeah, right.
So there are groups like the Brown Brays of Aslan, which I've been posting this photo that I shot 20 years ago in San Diego, San Isidro, but these guys are rallying all over the place.
The Brown Brays of Aslan are in a tiny way back in the news, thanks to social media, because they're the ones that are passing out these $500 gas masks.
Yeah.
Truckloads, pickup truckloads.
So you can do the math.
It's tens of thousands of dollars.
And the reason that they're passing these gas masks out has nothing to do with protecting innocent protesters.
You have to understand that that.
That Antifa and the and the left in general, they are very on top of their street tactics.
They understand they understand insurrection.
I mean, it's like, look at General Giop or Ho Chi Minh.
I mean, who won that war?
You know, you can say, well, you got B-52s.
You know, we got the 101st Airborne.
What do they got, AK-47s?
Well, they won, okay?
And so anybody that mocks these folks and derides them.
The Taliban is very short-sighted and foolish.
I mean, look who's still in Afghanistan, and look who spent trillions of dollars and is not in Afghanistan.
The Taliban is still running Afghanistan.
So anybody that mocks a small organization like the Brown Berets of Aslan, they are very short-sighted.
So these guys are still in existence.
20 years after I took that picture, the banner picture, you know, showing what they consider to be You know, their territory.
And the reason that they're still important is that they provide an existing structure, an organizational structure.
And, you know, currently I'm writing a new novel based in Ireland, The Future in Ireland.
And so I've been doing a lot of deep study on not just the IRA of the 70s and 80s.
But the IRA of the 19-teens and 20s, the 1950s, sometimes an organization like the IRA, which when we think of it, we're just thinking of Northern Ireland in the 70s, 80s, 90s.
They go through periods where they're almost extinct, but they provide an organizational structure.
So the next time that the brush fire flares into a forest fire, they're ready to flesh out their numbers.
They're ready to accept recruits.
And that's the position right now of groups like the Brown Berets of Aslan.
When this kicks off and becomes kinetic, people are going to flock to them and join them.
At least that's their hope.
I've studied these guys and they're very serious.
Did you see that the Mexican Senate leader was calling for a return to the 1830 boundaries where Mexico would, I'm sure you saw that post.
Which is a total joke because, you know, Mexico declared independence from Spain, which had its own problems and could no longer maintain an overseas empire in the early 19th century.
So Mexico declares independence, but Mexico, the new country, the Republic of Mexico, Is basically involved in a 20-year civil war fighting around Mexico City over who's going to run the country.
So these distant northern provinces of California and what was called New Mexico, Arizona, there was no Arizona.
The province was New Mexico and Arizona together was called New Mexico.
And then there was Texas, Tejas.
In the absence of any actual order in Mexico City, there was no protection from Mexican soldiers in the southern tier, the southwest.
So ranches that had existed for, you know, 100 years were overrun by Comanches and Apaches.
It was a period of total anarchy and disorder.
This is like the 1830s.
So at the same time, America was surging westward.
And this is when famous names like Kit Carson come into the picture.
So wagon trains coming out of St. Louis, not only are they heading to California and Oregon, they were also heading to New Mexico because there was a market there, an existing market, all these ranches, the city of Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and the country of Mexico.
It was essentially in a period of anarchy and revolution itself, Civil War.
So they were providing no trade, no economic activity.
And here come these rising gringos with, you know, vast wagon trains.
We're talking wagons that are huge, like the tractor-trailer of wagons that are pulled by, you know, 20 ox.
That's where the term teamster comes from, like the teamster's unions.
A teamster was a guy who could drive, you know, a tractor trailer pulled by ox.
And these were coming into Santa Fe and Albuquerque.
And the people living in this territory, which had been New Spain before the revolution against Spain, they turned towards America gladly because here comes trade and opportunity.
So when the Gadsden purchase occurs, Right.
They were not like, oh, my God, no, we have to stay with Mexico.
They never heard of Mexico.
They never saw a Mexican soldier.
As far as they were concerned, there was New Spain.
The Spanish were kicked out of Mexico City.
There's a period of civil war in Mexico City.
They're not getting anything from Mexico.
And the gringos are coming with trade and opportunity.
By every metric, they were welcomed.
And to this day, the people of New Mexico, the Hispanics that have been here for more than 100 years, do not consider themselves Mexicans.
In fact, it's an insult to call a New Mexican a Mexican if his family's been in the state since independence, because they consider that they went from Spain to America, period.
That's the true history of the Southwest.
Well, the Brown Berets of Aslan and La Raza and a group called Mecha, which in Spanish means the student movement for Chicano Aslan, if you can imagine.
Movimiento Estudantil Chicano Aslan.
Their symbol is literally like a war eagle holding a lipstick of dynamite, okay?
A lipstick.
And Mecha in Spanish means both fuse.
Like a cannon fuse or an old matchlock fuse or match, like lighting a fire with a match.
So that's where we get match, Mecha.
So Mecha means a fuse.
Their logo is a war eagle holding a lit stick of dynamite, okay?
And they and the Brown Berets of Aslan, they have a vision that the Southwest is going to be Ripped away from the United States.
They are not saying we're going to rejoin Mexico.
They're being used as a vessel.
They really have no plan after they destroy federal control from Washington.
There's no distinct plan.
The Brown Bray's logo is a cross with two crossed rifles.
So they're very confused on where they're actually going with this.
But at the end of the day, the Southwest is going to be another failed narco state, like in my book cover from 20 years ago.
This doesn't mean that they plan to rejoin Mexico.
The people that are going to inherit this carcass of the Southwest will be narcos and communists and terrorists.
They are going to just carve this territory up.
And that'll serve their purposes.
But the enemies of America at a higher level, they know that this is the beginning of the destruction of the USA.
When the Southwest is peeled off from America, that's the end of the 50-state America.
And anybody who thinks that's ridiculous can just look at Ukraine.
You know, like Crimea, Ukraine.
Goes from Soviet Union to independent, you know, let's have referendums, and then you have a war.
So this kind of thing can absolutely happen.
Going back to L.A., then, what's happening in L.A., and from listening to what you said to Alex on Monday, is it your understanding or your belief that this is not just a small, one-time thing that...
This is the big push.
This is the big push.
And the reason it may slow down and speed up is that, and Alex and I talked about this on that show on Monday, and as Michael Yan also says, information war is the highest level of warfare.
If you control the brain, you can control the rest.
You know, you can have a giant elephant or a giant, you know, bull, but if you've got a ring in its nose or if the mabut on top of the elephant knows how to, you know, tap it, it controls the elephant, it controls the bull.
So if you can control the mind, you can control the rest.
And the narrative, the optical narrative of this is a critical terrain.
The Brown Berets of Aslan and Mecha, they would be very happy to go straight to rifles and be shooting police cars from Texas to San Francisco.
They see this in the future.
They will gladly go to that.
But that would lose the optical war.
That would lose the narrative.
So the key of this is controlling.
The narrative in terms of who can be perceived or portrayed in the media as the innocent party that's just the peaceful protesters, the aggrieved party.
We're just struggling for civil rights.
We don't want mass deportations.
They intend to take this to a kinetic civil war.
But the outcome of a kinetic civil war will depend on, to a large extent, The popular perception in the rest of America, in those states and the rest of America.
So what they're going to try to do is instigate a situation similar to Kent State, Ohio in 1970, where some students were shot by the National Guard, or Bloody Sunday 1972 in London, Derry, Derry in Northern Ireland.
You know, where 20-some Irish were shot by British paratroopers.
So they need to get a George Floyd, but even bigger if possible.
They need a Rodney King.
It's clear.
And Trump seems to be sort of potentially falling into this trap by deploying active-duty Marines, who I assume will not be armed with paintball guns.
Isn't this almost a perfect storm?
My understanding is that the active duty troops, Marines to begin with, will be, and this does make sense to me, and it requires just a tiny bit of explanation.
They will be tasked with static defense of federal buildings.
That's my understanding, too.
And not like patrolling or doing checkpoints, which would be a disaster.
What this does is it frees up the DHS.
Paramilitary cops and National Guard and police units to do the checkpoints and interfacing with the public.
So I do agree with that.
In the Portland riots, 100 days of the siege of the Portland Federal Building, literally, and this is very key to Trump's understanding, that in Minnesota, Minneapolis, they did not call for National Guard because You know, the governor of Oregon, the governor of Minnesota, they're communists.
They're on the other side.
They want a disaster, right?
So they were happy to see the federal building under siege.
Green lasers, you know, what they call fireworks, mortar shell explosives being thrown at law enforcement, Molotov cocktails every night, 100 days.
The left was happy about this.
And the troops that were guarding that building, You know, now we'll be relieved in the Los Angeles context because active duty troops can do that.
Just stand there, guard the building.
And even at that, it'll be difficult because you have people that are very well trained, understand all of this asymmetrical warfare, guerrilla warfare.
They have read every book you and I have read.
They're just looking at it from the other point of view.
They totally get this.
And what they want is some Marine to fire some rounds into a crowd of Antifa.
Invariably, there will be a mamacita with a baby who will be shot.
This is what they're gearing for.
That's why they keep bringing children to these protests, like using them as human shields.
That's why they bring the children to the protests.
Gypsies will cripple their children to make them better begging tools.
We're not dealing with people with our psychology, our mentality.
They will use a baby as a weapon for sure.
So this in the 14th coming up, there's going to be rallies across the country called the note, the note kings rallies and marches.
And these guys are extremely well funded.
It's the regular cast of of of horribles is funding them with millions of dollars.
We'll go to their website.
It's fantastic.
Terrific.
It's top tier.
They are now, today, organizing all the free buses through many cutouts, so it'll be difficult to charge them.
They're dropping off the pallets of bricks.
They're bringing in the gas masks.
They're arranging the people with the firework explosive grenades.
They're doing that now because between now and the 14th, they're hoping for a George Floyd You know, Jorge Floido or a Rodney Kingo, right?
Or a Kent State or a Bloody Sunday.
So they organized the entire logistics of the 14th as if we're just going to have mass peaceful rallies, you know, in cities across America objecting to the heavy-handed ICE tactics of the tyrant Donald Trump.
Okay, that's fine.
But that's just a pretext.
That's how you can organize it in advance.
They may instigate a false flag.
Well, they're going to try to instigate a Kent State.
In Kent State, I mean, I was born in 57, so I was 13 in 1970.
I remember all this.
And Nixon had sent troops into Cambodia because they were just flagrantly using Cambodia and Laos as a...
So somebody got to Nixon and convinced him what we need to do is actually send ground troops into Cambodia.
This sounds like ancient history to anybody born, you know, in the last 30, 40 years.
But it has meaning.
So there had already been mass protests in Washington and elsewhere when we went into Cambodia that was used as a So they would typically go to the ROTC buildings and burn them.
Then the National Guard, depending on the state, would be called up to guard the federal property around the campuses.
Then the students would Walk right up to the soldiers who are standing there with rifles, you know, in a gas mask in their pouch, you know, not knowing what the hell to do.
They're just National Guard.
And, you know, the picture will be, here's this hippie chick trying to put a daisy in the end of the rifle barrel.
That's so cute.
Boo-hoo.
She's for peace.
Ten feet away, somebody's throwing a baggie full of piss at another National Guard.
Okay?
No picture, right?
Or a frozen bottle, you know.
So, they instigated a situation where some, you know, second lieutenant authorized to load weapons, and the next thing you know, you have four dead students.
That's the famous Neil Young song, Four Dead in Ohio, you know, Ten Soldiers and Nixon's Coming.
This was huge when I was a kid.
You can't even imagine how powerful that was.
So the power of the four dead students, you know, was part of, Of pushing Nixon out.
That made him like, you know, an evil tyrant.
Four dead in Ohio.
Ten soldiers and Nixon's coming.
Look it up.
Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young.
And whoever gets shot will be painted by the media as the second coming of Jesus.
And that's what they're hoping for between now.
They have to instigate that between now and the 14th.
Look, if they don't, if nothing happens, then the 14th will go and they'll pass and they'll gear up for something in July, right?
It's not like they're going to quit.
It's not like North Vietnam is going to say, damn, the Tet Offensive didn't win, so I guess we're just going to surrender and go back to North Vietnam and let America rule South Vietnam.
No.
Matt, right now, though, the imagery that the radicals on the left are using...
But it's recruiting these 10 to 20 million that just walked across the border from everywhere in the world, the Darien Gap, Mexico, Central America.
A lot of these guys are hardcore Marxists.
And they're hearing that the fight is on.
You know, this is the fight.
That brown beret of Aslan flag, Americans look at that and they laugh.
Ha ha ha.
They think they're going to take Nevada and California and Utah and Texas.
Ha ha ha.
What a joke.
It's not a joke to that senator in Mexico.
He said, we'll build the wall, but it's going to be around the 1830 map.
So it's not a joke to a lot of people.
I don't think it can succeed.
I'm not saying, oh, they're going to win.
But at another level, these are all concentric circles and levels on top of levels like the pyramids.
So at the higher level, there are people that just say, if these guys, we can use them as useful idiots because they believe this Aslan fairy tale, which is total BS and it's never going to work.
But if it blows up the United States, if it blows up the USA, Then we get to my next book, which is after you lose the Southwest, the whole country just fractures.
So the enemies of America will love this opportunity.
And if things quiet down, there are at least the Mexican drug cartels, Russia, I don't have a big problem with Russia, but Russia, China, North Korea, Iran.
Any of these governments can say, you know what, it serves our purpose at the time being to have America tied up in internal stress.
So if things are quieting down on the Los Angeles front, let's heat them back up a little.
And so let's just take out their grid with a few rifle shots.
Blame it on somebody else.
I'm actually glad you mentioned that, the sabotage wave, because you and I have spoken before about, and you've tweeted about this a lot.
Let me mention your Twitter address.
Let me get it here.
What is it?
Matt underscore Bracken 48. Right.
That's my current Twitter since I was unbanned.
My new Twitter.
Okay.
All right.
Matt underscore Bracken 48. You've posted and we've talked about the prepositioning of weapons.
In storage containers or storage units across America.
Can you speak to that right now?
What kinds of weapons?
How many weapons?
And it's other gear.
I know it's ballistic vests and night vision and things like that.
But what do they have prepositioned?
For sure.
Yes.
Drones could take out our entire Air Force on the ground.
Like this thing in Ukraine.
Ukraine just proved that.
We have a hundred times more aircraft just parked in the open.
And a lot of these aircraft, Their manufacturing lines are gone.
You can't just say, let's order another one to replace the 50 that just got burned by drones last night.
Right.
Their production lines stopped 20 years ago.
Correct.
So you whittle down that number until they're gone, then you hopefully create a new airplane.
Anyway, as far as storage containers of AK-47s, RPGs, yes, I certainly think they're in the country.
But for the next stage, that's not even critical.
And I'm writing about Ireland, not just Northern Ireland, the Troubles, but the Republic of Ireland resisting this genocide conquest that's undergoing, that's happening now in Ireland.
In Northern Ireland from the 70s, 80s, 90s, the people that know this will say there were no more than a couple hundred what you would be considered active IRA.
These are guys under orders.
They follow orders.
They're in a chain of command.
A couple hundred.
And they only had a couple hundred guns at any one time.
Because the Brits would find caches and take them.
So it was very difficult to get arms into Northern Ireland.
It's basically the British Navy surrounds the whole place.
They tried bringing in small ships from Libya.
They tried bringing in a trawler from Boston.
They were caught.
So 10 or 20 rifles or machine guns would be snuck in at a time here and there.
So let's just say a few hundred active IRA and a few hundred guns and caches.
They had so few guns that these IRA guys didn't have like a gun at home.
They had to be like given one for a job and then return it.
Compare that to America.
Every cartel gang member in America has You know, at least an AK-47 and a Glock, the minimum, right?
Already.
So the 10 to 20 million that just walked over the border, they can, depending on their willingness to go violent, they can just be handed a rifle tomorrow.
So it took Britain 30 years to say, you know what, we're never going to subdue Northern Ireland.
This is just six counties of the 26 counties of Ireland.
And the British, so Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom, right?
Wales, Scotland, England, and Northern Ireland.
And the British army, right next door, said, we're done.
You know, no matter what we do, they'll send people to England and bomb Canary Wharf and blow all the windows out of their Wall Street.
And they said, we're finished.
That's a couple hundred active IRA with a couple hundred weapons.
Los Angeles County, which is like, you know, 15 or 18 million people in the whole county, where there's not like a green space between cities.
You know, you only know you're going from Los Angeles to Riverside if you catch a sign, you know, on the highway.
So this is like 10 Fallujahs.
In terms of a sea for gorillas to swim in, Los Angeles is it.
A majority of Los Angelinos are going to support these terrorists.
But it doesn't matter.
If 3% are there, you're talking 100,000 armed guys today.
So the only question is, how do they escalate to the point where they can just start openly firing at police cars and military vehicles without being portrayed as the ones that initiated the violence?
It's all about the optics of maintaining violence.
Who drew first blood?
Exactly.
That's why they're desperate to have a Kent State or a Rodney King.
It's the positioning, the victimization narrative, then justifies the actions that they want to take.
And we've already seen that with Newsom and Bass, the communist, seven trips to Cuba.
I mean, give me a break.
You know, she went chopping sugarcane.
So it's all about the optics.
So immediately they began blaming Trump and bringing in the National Guard.
Trump's point of view, and I agree with it, is we didn't bring in the National Guard in Portland and Minnesota and Minneapolis, and look what happened.
So we have to do it before the governors are so desperate and the police stations are all burned down.
Right, right.
And since Trump sent in the Guard, then all of a sudden the governor and the mayor activate more local law enforcement posturing.
But they don't have enough.
Los Angeles, LAPD.
Compared to NYPD is vastly undermanned in terms of population and vastly in terms of geography because it's not like you're dealing with Manhattan.
It's a huge area.
So just the city of Los Angeles is ten times more populated and larger than Belfast, Northern Ireland.
The British Army could never stamp out the IRA in Little Belfast.
So anybody that thinks 3,000 or 5,000 or 10,000 National Guard will make any difference in a metropolis of 15 to 18 million people, you know, Los Angeles County, I mean, it's bigger than countries.
And when this goes kinetic, it's going to be like a Fallujah for Trump, but a 20 times bigger Fallujah.
Right, right.
Well, and yeah, Fallujah America is what I've said before.
But also, you mentioned that you thought there's a very high likelihood that at some point the power grid is taken out or goes down, serving Los Angeles.
Now, to me, that seems catastrophic.
Tell us about that.
There's two more concentric rings or pyramid levels above just, you can't just think in terms of like, well, they're having an insurrection and going back to Northern Ireland.
The whole time during the Troubles, Supermarkets were restocked and people drove to work, right?
There might have been a bombing you heard about in another town, you know, 10 miles away, but you went to work.
Maybe some Catholics or Protestants were shot by death squads, but you went to work and the supermarket was stocked.
In Los Angeles, there are two more things that can happen that can be blamed on anybody because it may be false flagged, real flagged, blamed on a third party.
That Metcalf attack when the grid stationed in California like 10 years ago, that was a proof-of-concept operation by a foreign national-level actor.
That was a one-star Iranian or North Korean general saying, you give me more funding and I can take out America's grid overnight.
Prove it.
Okay, here.
Just read the newspaper next week.
I can do this 20 times a night for a week.
And there will be no grid in America.
So that's what Metcalfe was.
So if it seems like some foreign actor or cartels wants to really amplify the dreadfulness of what's going on in Los Angeles, they'll black it out or black out part of it.
And once blackouts begin, there's a psychological reaction where You know, if you see that I have no power, but across the freeway they have power, people will say, well, screw them.
Why do they have power?
And they start shooting the Transformers.
We live in a high-trust society.
It's like our jugular vein is on the outside, like this, like, please don't cut it.
So these things, the small to large Transformers, you shoot them, and there's the power.
If one or two go out in lightning storms, thunderstorms, Sure, the power company comes along, fixes them.
You're out of power for a couple hours.
Katrina, you're out of power for a couple weeks.
If this becomes a campaign, like Metcalf after Metcalf, you can black out cities.
So that's one threat.
Because there will be people, accelerationists, foreign actors.
That want to take this and blow on the flames and accelerate the flames, increase the flames, because they want America to have a bigger internal problem.
So we can't think about Iran, Russia, China, because we're going to be putting out fires at home.
And then that's the next subject, which is fires.
All you got to do is wait for a dry, windy day, drive up above any of these cities with the wind blow in the right direction and start throwing flares.
That Palisades fire.
It was an accidental campfire, supposedly, but the fires in New Jersey were absolutely arson, North Carolina, arson.
So if you think, if you like hate America, if you've been raised on America is the great Satan, and it's time to pay America back, you might be an Islamist, you might be a cartel guy, you might be my mother just got deported guy, right?
And you're just pissed at America.
All you've got to do is go upwind on a dry day when the wind's blowing, and you can start burning Los Angeles down.
The police will be busy with riots.
The grid might be down.
So my analogy is America is like a big glass mansion.
We're so rich that nobody ever dared to throw a rock at our glass mansion.
But now we're vulnerable.
The enemy's inside the glass mansion.
About anti-fragility, you know, about redundant security systems, hardening our grid.
Instead, we're still, like, threatening Iran, you know, with military destruction.
Yeah.
You know, and things like that, you know, threatening China.
I mean, and I'm not saying these are good actors, but when you're so vulnerable at home, it's not like 1941.
Then they did Pearl Harbor.
They couldn't attack the mainland.
They tried with, like, incendiary balloons from submarines.
It's ridiculous.
Now we've got millions of enemy inside the country.
Like Michael Yan's been reporting, tens of thousands of Chinese coming over.
They're not looking for a ride when they get here.
Their bus picks them up.
They've got a smartphone, and they're just, like, doing their codes and taking away.
Organized, intelligent Chinese.
They're here for a reason.
And the long-term solution to this has to involve mass deportation.
Has to.
But even though that effort has begun, even on a good day, Homan manages to get, what, 1,500 people out of the country.
But under Biden, there were 10,000 a day coming in.
So we're not even going to touch this.
At a political level, this operates as a one-way ratchet of 99%.
To 1% one-way ratchet, where under a Democrat president, whether it's, you know, Biden is just the auto pen, whoever was running his teleprompter, they can bring in 15 million.
And then as soon as the next Republican president says, we want to reverse that, all of these communist judges are like, no way, that's unconstitutional.
700 unelected judges.
Any one of them can veto the president.
This is a completely dysfunctional system designed to collapse the United States.
So at some point, a president will have to assume kind of emergency powers and even, like, arrest these judges as seditionists, which imagine the media then.
Then what do you do?
Right.
Left-wing narrative.
Right.
So it's a very thorny situation.
My last book ends in Texas, Doomsday Reef, and the survivors of a 10-year rolling disaster, they're not waiting for orders from anybody.
Texas militia in this book at the end, they're just, oh, you don't speak English?
Do you have a deed to that property?
Can you show us some documentation that you own this ranch?
No?
Bang!
It's like, no more patience.
The rule of law is like Rule 556, Rule 308.
Right.
Because doing this legally, doing this through the process, rule of law process, is a guaranteed fail.
I mean, it's guaranteed on so many levels.
The money's going to collapse.
They're going to try to roll out some stablecoin CBDC that's going to fail.
We're...
People call me a pessimist, but I say, well, maybe you're just a Pollyanna.
Take off your rose-colored glasses.
Look at reality.
And we already see the total collapse of the rule of law under Democrat control in L.A., where the shopkeepers are never allowed to shoot the looters, which seems like the obvious solution.
They're never allowed to shoot looters, so the looters just come in and ransack every place.
It's got nothing to do with immigration, nothing to do with ICE.
They're just looting because they can, and there's no rule of law.
The rule of law only held while the law enforcement side could literally, it sounds quaint, but read the Riot Act.
Reading the Riot Act, and it would vary from state to state, it essentially meant get off the street or we're going to go live fire in 10 minutes.
You know, because riots can get out of control like a like a wildfire.
If you have a, you know, 10 square foot wildfire, you can put it out with a five gallon bucket of water.
But if you don't get permission to use the five gallon bucket of water and you wait till it's in your forest, then what?
You can't control it.
So the riot act meant we have to put out the small fires before the forest catches on.
So when the lynch mob would come towards the jail, you know, to lynch a prisoner that they thought should be hanged a little quicker, a couple sheriff's deputies on the porch would say, we're reading the riot act.
You have 10 minutes to disperse or it's lead coming your way.
And if you want to take your chances, And how many rounds we have in our revolvers, shotguns, and Winchesters, then know that the Texas Rangers from, you know, a hundred more Texas Rangers will be coming over the next few days.
They'll hunt you down and kill you.
Because people believed it.
There was a saying in Texas, one Ranger, one riot.
That's because they knew he wasn't kidding.
One Ranger meant the Ranger would stand in front of the rioters and say, Who wants to die before I unload this gun, you know, and you can overrun me?
But know that tomorrow 100 Rangers are coming.
And they were like, I want to mess with that.
I have to imagine that this is going to come back into practical fashion here because there's no other way to maintain security of a community if you aren't willing to shoot the violent gun.
So there's three huge LA riots over a couple generations.
1965 Watts riots, 1992 Rodney King riots, and then what's unfolding now, which may not get to that level.
But in the 1965 Watts riots, there were no SWAT teams yet.
They hadn't been created.
So uniformed patrol officers.
We're making up their tactics by the seat of the pants.
And one of the things that I've read over and over again is that they would put like three or four cops in one car so that they could use just a patrol car as like a little personnel carrier.
So two or three cars could unload eight or ten cops real quick.
And that the police brought their own personally owned deer rifles.
They had no SWAT sniper teams.
So police brought their own deer rifle.
And when they saw somebody preparing a Molotov cocktail, because Watts riots were big arson riots like Detroit later in 68. So when they saw a person preparing an arson attack, they shot him.
And there was no police report.
You know, it was just another guy dead in the riot.
But that had like the later rooftop Koreans of – They were only a solution in as far as guarding their little shopping mall, their little strip shopping center.
They weren't a solution in general to people rolling into the suburbs.
But when the police are totally hamstrung, the alternative is going to be vigilante action.
Americans aren't pacifists.
We're armed to the teeth, both sides, especially the conservatives.
So if the police have rules of engagement that are so restrictive, shop owners can't defend their own shop, then people are going to take vigilante action.
And, you know, initially vigilante action is I'm standing in front of my subdivision guarding it.
But pretty soon you realize we're going to have to extend our area of operation out until we can, like, meet with the other neighborhood self-defense forces.
And if we're going to have any economy, we've got to get these highways open.
Look at Los Angeles, high-trust society, power grid, highways.
It all runs through this whole checkerboard of ethnic conflict.
So anybody can stand up on a highway overpass.
We've only seen the bricks and cinder block portion yet.
Wait until it's people sniping.
Then it's going to, and the police are still going to, I've heard, People saying, well, you know, special forces could go in there and do that.
They won't get permission.
Nobody will give permission to go weapons-free on looters and rioters.
Well, this is a really critical point.
Yeah, because the governor and Mayor Bass of L.A. and the police chief, etc., they will never do what is necessary to stop this because they benefit from this chaos.
And another lesson from Northern Ireland, the troubles of that era.
The security services, and you can also see this with so-called death squads in countries like Brazil at different eras.
If the security services, they're tasked with gathering intel.
So they've got the computer programs, they've got all the faces, the databases, the social network analysis, spider web pictures of who are the critical node actors.
But they can't do anything, right?
It's like, I go to the prosecutor, the prosecutor's a communist and won't charge or indict anybody.
So what's the next step?
Whether it's in Northern Ireland with, like, a Royal Ulster Constabulary or in Brazil with police, they go to the same bars and hang out at the same clubs as these, like, former police that are now, quote-unquote, death squad guys.
Northern Ireland, it would be, like, Ulster Defense Force, things like that.
Ulster Defense Volunteer.
Anyway, there's loyalist British Protestant death squads.
They thought they weren't dealing with the IRA harshly enough.
So the overt British police and Northern Ireland police hand the intel packages to their buddies that will go out and do, you know, midnight killings.
You saw this in Brazil.
They would be called death squads or El Salvador at different times.
That's a natural progression.
If the police feel handcuffed, they're like, I know who the bad guys are, but I go to the DA and the DA is a freaking communist, right?
And the DA is like never arresting any of these people.
Then the information gets given to these paramilitary vigilante squads.
It's like mushrooms growing after rain.
It's like the sun coming up tomorrow.
That's why I write these books, because it's like you don't need to be a genius.
You don't need a crystal ball.
You just got to study history and just see where we are in the progression.
So it keeps turning.
Yeah.
From all your historical analysis and the books that you've written, which are extraordinary.
I mean, Yeah, going through the first one with the terrorist attack in the football stadium and all that, the long range.
It seems like you are convinced that this situation is not going to be able to be de-escalated.
No.
I hope I'm wrong.
I hope I'm wrong.
But, see, Trump is the perfect target for these guys.
They would never do this under a Democrat administration, no matter what happened with, you know, police shooting Rodney King, George Floyd.
Under a Democrat, they would, but they know that they have the correct tyrant enemy, enemy of freedom and enemy of the Constitution named Donald Trump.
So he's the perfect enemy, villain, but they just have to escalate so that the messaging, the optics will be.
That the Marines shot poor, you know, Guadalupe and her baby.
Right.
Or, you know, as Alex and I have agreed, stay away from parking garages.
Parking garages are like a 360-degree sniper nest, okay?
Right.
Many ways in, many ways out, hard concrete, you know, palisades or revetments to fire over.
So this is a total trap for Trump, though, because if Trump pulls all the federal troops out and just says, oh, you're on your own, then, of course, there will be violence and killings and Trump will be blamed for not stopping it.
But if he's there, then he will be blamed.
It just requires a lot of care and some understanding of history.
The British made some key mistakes in Northern Ireland that blew back on them.
You know, they got bad advice.
Tactics that had worked in Kenya in the Mau Mau War.
A guy named Major and then finally General Frank Kitson wrote Gangs and Counter Gangs about their great success in Kenya countering the Mau Mau's where they did false flag attacks like one terror group being blamed for attacking another terror group.
This worked fantastically in Kenya.
In the 1950s, they bring this to Northern Ireland, and they're like, well, let's plant a bomb in a Catholic bar, but we'll say that it was an accident and that the IRA was doing the bomb.
So they were initiating these false flag operations, thinking we're going to split the IRA and get them all fighting against each other.
And it absolutely did not work like Kenya.
It went 100% the other way.
They also did internment.
So, in 1972, they said, we've got to, like, have a surprise attack, like a Pearl Harbor of arrests, and we have a list of 800 people we think are IRA, and we're going to just round them up and put them in internment camps.
No trial, nothing.
Because we've got to do something, right, to stop this.
Well, half the people they picked up were, like, old guys from the 1950s IRA, hadn't touched a gun in, you know, 20 years, or guys that weren't IRA at all.
They just were.
You know, sympathizers wrote letters to the editor or whatever.
So they thought we'll like take out the middle level in the leadership of the IRA and that'll stop the IRA.
Huge mistake.
There wasn't even a provisional IRA then.
That created the provisional IRA because the official IRA who were more communist socialist weren't doing enough kinetically against the British soldiers.
The provosts were just, we're nationalists, we're not communists, but we want to shoot Brits.
After internment, immediately, volunteers flooded to the IRA.
And this is a comparison I make to groups like the Brown Berets of Aslan.
You can say, Matt, there's not even 500 of those guys.
Well, there weren't 500 IRA in 1968 either.
But the volunteers will flock to these organizations.
That picture that I put, that's up on X. The Brown Braves of Aslan with that banner, they led that big march.
How did they lead that march?
Was there an election?
Did the march leaders say, you know who should be in the front?
The Brown Braves of Aslan with that provocative flag of Aslan, you know, from like, you know, Utah, California, Texas, it's all part of us now.
How did they lead?
That parade.
They led the parade because they were in uniforms, they looked sharp, they looked disciplined, and they went to the front of the parade.
Who's going to say, no, we want the LGBTQ rainbow fairy Mexicans?
No.
These tough guys with berets, they go to the front of the parade, they led the parade.
So that's a paradigm.
That's the paradigm of how an organization that's just an empty structure, an almost empty structure.
It's ready to be fleshed out.
And so those 500 Brown Berets today will be the 500, you know, officers and NCOs.
And each one of them will have a cell of, you know, six or ten guys.
And remember, in Northern Ireland, a few hundred IRA with a few hundred guns fought the Brits to a standstill over 30 years.
So, Los Angeles is a much harder battlefield to win on than Belfast, Northern Ireland.
Oh, yeah.
Absolutely.
All right.
So, we're about to wrap this up, Matt, and I appreciate your time today and your analysis as always is spot on, but also a reminder to people of how quickly this can go sideways and how futile the efforts will be.
For Trump to try to, you know, completely control this situation, especially when the mayor, the governor, the police chiefs, and everybody, they're all commies.
And the judges in LA, they're all communists.
They're all Marxists.
I mean, they want this to happen.
So there's almost no way to stop this.
Last question, you know, is this going to spread to other cities and be a multi-year domestic battlefield?
They're key.
They're like our biggest West Coast port, manmade ports.
And they're rail and truck hubs.
You know, they're they're key.
You know, they still pull a lot of oil out of California.
There's refineries, chemical plants.
It's a big place.
And it all depends on a high-trust society because these pipelines, chemical plants, all their infrastructure runs across a checkerboard of ethnic hate, you know, where somebody eventually says, why are they profiting from this oil going from that point to that point right through my neighborhood?
And let's just see what happens if we blow it up.
And the more force that comes in to try to restore order.
So I'm not saying we can't win.
I'm not saying that at all.
I'm just saying going in like a bull in a china shop, which Trump may tend to do, will be a huge mistake.
And comparing to internment in Northern Ireland, if you're going to arrest mayors and people like that, you have to build a really Airtight case, even in federal court.
Because if you make arrests that are half-cocked, like, oh, we know he's guilty of something, once we get him in jail, you know, we'll arrange the charges.
That's going to smell like internment.
And that becomes a recruitment pitch, you know, for the other side.
So, you know, you have to be strong, but careful.
All right.
Well said, Matt.
And hopefully he will.
His administration will heed these warnings.
We're in dangerous territory.
I want to give out your website again, enemiesforeignanddomestic.com.
That whole phrase.
Yeah, and Matt underscore Bracken48 on Twitter.
I'm also on Gab under my real name.
But this book that I wrote almost 20 years ago that's kind of coming true today.
I've read a lot of what you would call patriot fiction, and most of it is really badly written, well-meaning people, but just people that can't write.
I would say that my novels stand as novels.
Very evocative, good fiction.
I would second that.
Reconquista is the name of your second book there, Domestic Enemies.
