Time Text
I don't know.
and welcome.
You're listening to the X-22 Report.
My name is Dave and this is episode 2316B and today's date is October 30th, 2020 and the title of the episode is Deep State Readies Their Plan, Sky Fortress Engaged, National Guard Activated.
Playbook known.

Let's get into the economic collapse, political, and geopolitical news.
Now the deep state, the mainstream media, they are ready and prepared to move ahead with their plan.
But the patriots, they already know their plan.
They already know what they're trying to do.
And they're getting ready to counter everything they're trying to do.
They already know they can't win the election.
Actually, the patriots have been countering them in all different states with the mail-in ballots.
And it seems that they're starting to reverse course.
And I'm talking about the deep state players, the corrupt politicians, where they're reversing course saying, don't mail in your ballots, hand deliver them.
Because Trump has been countering all of this.
And they're running scared right now.
And this is why they're pushing this great reset.
This is why they're pushing the dark winter, which I do believe Biden came out and said this and he wasn't really supposed to say this.
I think he slipped up letting everyone know what their plan was because we could see it out in Europe and here in the United States, which we'll be talking about a little bit later.
But the patriots, they're all prepared and ready for this.
They understand what they're trying to do.
And to have the people on their side, they need to show them exactly what their plan is.
It can't just be a little bit.
It just can't be the pandemic.
It just can't be censoring.
It just can't be the riots.
They need to see their full plan in action so people understand what they're really trying to do.
Because once Trump has everyone on his side and the deep state, the mainstream media, the corrupt politicians see that the people are standing with Trump.
And I don't mean every single person in the country.
He doesn't need every single person in the country.
He just needs the majority.
When they see the majority of the people standing with him, backing him, because 2016 was not an anomaly.
It was true that the people actually wanted him to be president.
And throughout these four years, The people now have shown, yes, we want him.
He's not a politician.
We want him to drain the swamp.
This is going to be the signal.
This is going to be the initial phase of where Trump goes into action.
Because he wants the deep state.
He wants the corrupt politicians.
He wants the mainstream media to understand that the people are behind him.
You have lost control.
And the people want law and order.
They want justice.
This is what they want.
And I am carrying out their orders because I report to the people.
This is what they've been waiting for.
Now, we know the deep state and the mainstream media, they're not going to give up.
They're going to fight until the very end.
And we know this.
Yes, they're going to use dirty tricks.
They're going to use riots.
They're going to use dark winter.
Remember Dark Winter Operation?
I think Biden, like I just said, he kind of messed up when he mentioned that.
And I think he gave the plan out.
Yes, they're going to try a second and third wave of the pandemic.
I do believe this is what they're going to be trying to do.
Now, with all the information coming out with Biden, they're trying to pretend that it doesn't exist.
They tried that.
Yes, the mainstream media outlets, they're not reporting it.
They're pretending it's Russian disinformation.
But all of this is failing.
Nothing is working.
So they decided to take this to the next step.
They put out that...
This whole thing is a right-wing internet conspiracy.
And this is what NBC put out.
And this is from Kyle Griffin.
NBC exclusive, the Hunter Biden dossier that went viral on right-wing internet sites and was later disseminated by Trump's close associates, appears to be from a fake intelligence firm.
The author of the report, Martin Aspin, does not exist.
Now, This is not about Bobulinski.
It's not about his documents.
Yes, if you're just reading it, people are going to think that this is exactly what they want.
What they're actually doing right now is they are muddying the water.
What does that mean?
Muddy the water.
Confuse the issue as in bringing up one irrelevant fact after another.
So they're trying to use this to make people think, well, if this is fake, then everything else must be fake.
If Hunter Biden's pictures that are fake that we put out there, then those real ones must be fake.
This is what they tried to do.
Is it going to work?
No.
Why is that?
Because there's too many facts.
There's too many documents with Hunter's signature on it.
There's pictures that are absolutely pictures of him and they're not photoshopped, they're not faked, and they're all going to be analyzed, which they've been doing already.
Same thing with the documents and the emails.
is true.
And we'll be talking about that in just a moment.
But first, Tony Bobulinski, he's saying that he was interviewed by the FBI for five hours about Biden and the Chinese business deals.
So the FBI, they interviewed him.
They discussed certain things.
And we know that the information that he's been giving out, the documentation and everything like that, well, it is all true.
It's being verified.
And it seems that the Senate has verified that, yes, this information is true.
And I do believe more information coming out is going to show that all of this is true.
Now, what's very interesting is that when Trump was doing an interview with Leslie Stahl from 60 Minutes, she said that these emails, they can't be verified.
You know, the ones on Hunter Biden's laptop.
Well, it seems that these emails were just verified via forensic analysis.
So, that whole story about the emails not being verified and they can't be verified, they are now verified.
And think about what Adam Schiff said.
He accused Trump of handing Putin a propaganda coup.
He called this Russian disinformation.
Now, with the emails being verified, saying that, yes, they came from Hunter, yes, all these emails that went back and forth, they are true, how can this be Russian disinformation?
It can't be.
So how did they prove that these emails were absolutely true?
Well, cybersecurity expert Robert Graham said that the emails that are That he looked at are unquestionably authentic after analyzing its DKIM signature.
And he told everyone that these emails sent from Gmail, these messages that Hunter Biden received and sent, can absolutely be verified beyond a shadow of a doubt by testing its contents against the unique DKIM signature found in its meta tag.
And he used this to verify all of it.
And he said the only way that these emails could have been faked is if someone hacked into a Google server, found the private key, and then used it to reverse engineer the email's DKIM signature.
So right now, with everything that he has found, it shows that these emails, they are verified.
And the documents that Bobulinski has, they are verified.
Now what's very interesting is that Trump, he tweeted out One word, all together.
It's three words, but he put it as one with a hashtag.
And it says, Biden Crime Family.
That's all it says.
Hashtag Biden Crime Family.
But what's very interesting about this tweet is that the word family in his tweet has two I's.
F-A-M-I-I-L-Y. Now, Julian's Rum, he picked this up.
And he said, extra I in brackets.
The I's in brackets.
Marker, nine.
Nine is in brackets.
And he said indictments.
Now, let's take this one step further.
It seems that Trump signed a Due Process Protection Act on 10-21-20.
And this is the Brady now in Rule 5.
And when you read this, it says the law, which became effective on enactment and men rule five of federal rules of criminal procedure five initial appearance by adding a requirement that trial judges in all criminal proceedings on the first scheduled court date, when both prosecutors and defense counsel are present issue an oral and written when both prosecutors and defense counsel are present issue an oral and written order confirming the prosecutor's disclosure obligations under Brady versus Maryland And to notifying the prosecution of the possible consequences of violating the order.
The amendment to rule five further requires that each judicial counsel promulgate a model order for use by judges.
Now what's very interesting about this, it says, in all criminal proceedings, and the I is in brackets.
So when you look at both of these things, they kind of match.
There's an extra I. There's an I in brackets.
Marker 9.
What's the ninth letter of the alphabet?
I. And if you go to post 3717, this is December 17, 2019, it says first indictment unsealed will trigger mass population awakening.
First arrest will verify action and confirm future direction.
They will fight, but you are ready.
Marker 9.
So it seems that we're getting very, very close to the first indictment.
And we know that the grand jury has been looking at many individuals, not just Biden, but many.
And we also understand that all of this is connected.
How do we know that there's an investigation going on?
Well, the Department of Justice just confirmed this.
A Justice Department official confirmed that the FBI opened up a criminal investigation into Hunter Biden and his associates, focused on allegations of money laundering, and that this case is still open and active today.
It means they've been investigating this for a very long time, since 2019.
And remember, this is not the TV shows of all these criminal cases where they wrap it up in two hours and, This is not the movies.
This is about following the money, following the documentation, putting everything together to make sure that you have all the information.
This is why true investigations take a very long time.
It's not something that just happens overnight.
And we can see that all of this now is moving forward.
And this is why the deep state is ready to react.
This is why the politicians are ready to push their agenda.
They already know that they lost the election.
They already know they don't have a chance.
The mail-in voting is not going to work.
But if you really look at like the social media companies and you look at the mainstream media, actually, they've been interfering with the election.
Think about what they've done so far.
Have any of the mainstream media channels, stations, have they reported on Joe Biden, on Hunter Biden?
Have they brought anything up?
I'm not talking about Fox News and certain individuals like Tucker Carlson.
I'm talking about the mainstream media.
No, they really haven't.
So they're holding this information back to try to manipulate the election.
Without people seeing this, you don't think there's anything wrong.
Well, let's take this a step further.
What about social media?
They've been doing this.
Also, they've been holding everything back.
They've also been peddling fake narratives.
Look what came out yesterday.
The anonymous op-ed person who didn't know Trump, didn't know, never met him, never said anything.
And they brought that out just yesterday.
And this was produced back in 2018 through the New York Times.
Trying to create a narrative.
Trying to skew the elections.
This is why they brought it up now.
Think about them cheering suppression of everyone that is trying to bring out the truth on social media.
What are they doing?
They're suspending, they're censoring.
So the mainstream media, where they're not reporting anything, the social media companies, where they're hiding things, where they're trying to stop everyone from reporting all of this information, they are manipulating the elections.
And it's being done on purpose.
Remember, everything that they say where they say, oh, Trump is trying to manipulate the elections, Trump is doing this, it's really them projecting everything that they're doing onto Trump.
Now, it seems that more and more people are coming out and endorsing Trump.
We have Lil Wayne.
He's out there saying, yes, he is going to support Trump.
We also have Brett Favre out there.
And he tweeted this out.
My vote is for what makes the country great.
Freedom of speech and religion, Second Amendment, hard work and taxpaying citizens, police and military.
In this election, we have freedom of choice, which all should respect.
For me and these principles, my vote is for Trump.
And he's absolutely right.
And actually, Richard Grinnell responded to this and said, boom.
And also, the Philadelphia Firefighters Union voted overwhelmingly not to rescind its endorsement of Trump.
Now, this is massive.
Remember, he has the firefighters, he has the police officers, he has law and order on his side.
This is going against Biden in every single way.
Because the people see what's going on all around the country.
They see the riots.
They see the fires.
They see the police standing down because the mayors and the governors are telling them to do this.
They see all of this.
And the people realize, no, we need the police.
We need law and order.
We need to make sure that they're not just burning and hurting people and destroying people's lives.
And this is completely working against the deep state players.
Now, Trump and his team, they've been out there and they've been issuing lawsuits against all these different states where he's trying to stop the mail-in vote.
Now, he's not really trying to stop the mail-in vote.
He wants it counted on election day.
He doesn't want this to drag out for six days, 15 days, 20 days.
And a lot of the states, they have ruled in his favor.
Yes, there's a couple that have not, but a lot of states are ruling in his favor.
And we just got the ruling from Minnesota saying that you need to count all the ballots on election day.
And you can see like Amy Klobuchar, Pelosi, you know what they're saying now?
They're saying, listen, don't mail in your ballot, hand deliver it, stand up for your rights.
Actually, they're now backtracking.
So Trump wanted everyone to go to the polls anyhow.
They wanted everyone to vote in person.
So people now are going to vote in person.
They're backtracking on all this mail-in voting, which means Trump has countered all of this.
This was his plan.
Absolutely.
But the social media platforms, they're continually censoring people.
I believe Mark Morgan, who got his Twitter account suspended for producing The Wall, showing a video of The Wall and how it protects the country against gang members and crime and drugs and everything like that.
It seems that Twitter decided, okay, we'll give you the account back.
Because I think a lot of people came out and said, why did you ban his account?
This makes no sense.
Actually, it doesn't make sense for any of the bannings that we are seeing.
But we also see on Instagram, they're going to be doing away with hashtags until after the election.
So anything hashtag Trump or anything like that, you will not see them.
They will be hidden from everyone.
And again, this is being done on purpose.
And what does this do?
Are they trying to manipulate the election?
Of course they are.
They already know this is a landslide.
Well, early voting is showing that it's in favor of Trump right now.
The Democrats, the mainstream media, they can't figure this out.
They don't know what's going on right now.
And this is why they're...
And I'm talking about the deep state, the corrupt politicians, the invisible enemy.
This is why they're pushing their agenda right now.
And we know that Biden mentioned dark winter.
And what's happening right now, it seems that they're ready to push this agenda forward.
How do we know this?
Well...
We know it because we're seeing it out in Europe, and the mainstream media is now building this up.
Even though the recovery rate is 99.99x, depending on the age, they're still pushing this.
Remember, they don't have the death count anymore.
They don't have the nursing homes anymore.
So all they're going to try to do is use cases.
But what Trump has proven over this entire time is that even if you have it, it doesn't mean anything.
It doesn't mean that you're sick.
It doesn't mean that you're going to Drop dead.
Actually, look at all the homeless people around the world.
Do you see bodies all over the streets where they're cleaning them up?
No.
If this was a true pandemic, these individuals with compromised immune systems, they'd be dead.
They're not wearing masks.
They're not washing their hands.
They're living on the streets.
And it's cold, it's hot, it's wet.
And we would see death all over the place.
This is how you know it's not true.
But coming out of Paris, the people were rioting because they're preparing for another nationwide lockdown.
When we look at Belgium, the Prime Minister there is saying we're going to be locking down the country for the second wave.
Here in the United States, what are they doing?
Well, this is coming out of ABC News.
Justin, 29 states report a record number of new COVID-19 cases in October.
CNN. Across the U.S., researchers have administered COVID-19 tests to pets and other animal species ranging from farm minks and zoo cats to unexpected critters like dolphins, armadillos, and anteaters.
And here's what they found.
Yes, these creatures can be infected with COVID-19.
That's what they're reporting right now.
And then another one from CNN. A majority of the 1918 flu deaths occurred in the fall of 1918, the second and worst wave of the 1918 flu.
We could face a similar fate with COVID-19 if some people continue to ignore what a century of scientific progress has taught us about pandemics.
Well, if you're really following the science and you're following the science of masks and you're following the science of how viruses react and how small they are, you would know that all this is fake.
I'm not talking about if there's a virus or not.
I'm just saying that it's the fake information that they're putting out there about the virus, that it's really deadly, that a mask will protect you.
Because look at the recovery rate.
The case numbers are astronomical now because we're doing a lot more testing.
Yes, if you test, you're going to find out that people have it.
Actually, if you go and test people for the flu virus right now, I'm sure a lot of people will probably have it.
But if you don't do any tests, nobody knows you have it.
So I do believe that Joe Biden, when he mentioned this during the debates, when he mentioned this is going to be a dark winter, I think he screwed up.
So it doesn't really matter at this point, but they're moving ahead with their plan.
But if you look at the actual COVID-19 deaths by week, this whole pandemic, it's done.
It's finished.
It's over.
The death count is almost zero.
There's nothing here anymore and all they're doing is pushing it and what else are they doing?
Well, they're getting prepared and ready for after the election.
Now, if the deep state was in control and they had all the power, they wouldn't be trying to create a second wave of the pandemic.
They wouldn't mention a dark winter.
They wouldn't be doing any of this if they were in control because if they were going to win, why would you need any of this?
You wouldn't.
The only reason you need all of this is It's because you're losing.
Because you don't have control.
The deep state doesn't have control.
The invisible enemy doesn't have control.
The central banks don't have control.
They have control over nothing.
And we can see out in D.C. They are now taking precautions.
They are boarding up many of the buildings.
This is coming from Christopher Ruffo.
And it says the entire neighborhood surrounding the White House is preparing for mass unrest.
Boards, chains, fences, and barriers...
This is insane, he says.
Yes, they are preparing for all of this.
And we'll be talking a little bit more about this a little bit later.
But first, let's get into Q's post here.
This is post 4941.
This is October 30th, 2020.
Now, Q gave us this letter.
And this is an open letter to the President of the United States.
And what is this letter talking about?
It's talking about the Great Reset.
It's talking about...
How they're going to be using the pandemic, the second wave, third wave, the fourth wave to get their way.
They're preparing to push their agenda forward.
And I'm talking about the deep state players, the invisible enemy.
This is what they're doing right now.
They're pushing their agenda and they're using...
All of this for the Great Reset.
That's what this letter says.
It looks like it's about four pages long here.
And this is what it says.
It says that they're ready to do this.
Now what's very interesting is that General Flynn, he tweeted this out right after Q posted this.
And is that a coincidence?
I think not.
But what's very interesting is that we know from Q, and if we go back to the beginning, we understand that they're preparing for riots, they're preparing for unrest, and they've been readied for this for a long time because they know that they're not in control.
They know that they're going to lose the election because if they're going to win the election, there'd be no reason to To go after Trump in the White House, to seize Washington, to have riots in all different cities.
Because if they're going to win, you wouldn't need any of that.
Which means they know they're going to lose.
But what's very interesting is that Millie Weaver, she had exclusive footage of federal employees, intelligence contractors, and others Planning to shut down Washington Take over the White House Take a listen to what they were saying Inauguration day.
Do we have any plans for how to respond if there's a coup?
Come to BLM Plaza anytime after 4 p.m.
on election night.
On the 5th, we're going to shut down the White House.
Matt, the White House, didn't know every access point so we knew we could blockade it.
On the 6th, we're going to shut down larger parts of Washington, D.C. We've been working on a target map and a framework for scenario.
So where are all the police stations?
Where are all the key government buildings?
Who are the Trump boosters?
Members of Congress that are coming in, we're going to meet them at the airports or at Union Station and send them back to where they came from until we deal with the situation that we're in.
We are going to be in a crisis, but we want it to be one that we are creating.
Whoever's got the guns can win.
Let's take over the buildings.
If there are people that are willing to do that, we should support them.
Get ready to shut your city down on the 4th or the 5th.
Regardless of who wins.
So what they're talking about is they're talking about shutting it all down.
And it's basically insurrection.
So I want to go back to post 4,476.
Now this post is from June 17th, 2020.
And down below it says, how did Hitler gain power?
What events created population defines extremism, the insurrection, global economic depression, reparations, huge rise on unemployment.
German began to lose faith in democracy and look to extreme parties on the both the left, the communists and the right, the Nazis, for quick and simple solutions.
When people are unemployed, hungry and desperate, as millions were in Germany between 1930 and 33, they often turn to extreme political parties offering simple solutions to their problems.
Between 1930 and 1933 supported the extreme right wing Nazis and the extreme left wing communist sword.
Now, MSDNC, peaceful protests.
MSDNC, propaganda campaign.
MSDNC, information warfare.
MSDNC, POTUS must be removed.
Push years.
One to now.
COVID-19, global economic depression.
D party, BLM race push, reparations.
COVID-19, huge rise in unemployment, 40 million.
Insurrection, riots, city takeovers, remove police, weaken, property destroy, assault, murder, release.
By D governor, mayors, back to streets, safe zones, division, hostility, race war, etc.
End goal then, verification.
Verse now.
Government control.
Understanding the past helps to understand the present.
Then we go to post 3900.
This is March 26, 2020.
Then down below it says treason, rebellion or insurrection, sedition, conspiracy, advocating overthrow of government, and so forth.
Then we move on to post 4360.
This is May 30, 2020.
And it says, Insurrection Act of 1807.
Determination that the various state and local authorities are not up to the task of responding to the growing unrest.
Call the ball.
What does call the ball mean?
Commit to a course of action.
Make a final decision about a course of action.
Derived from the U.S. Navy terminology for naval aviator confirming he has the optical landing aids in sight prior to landing on the aircraft.
This was famously used during the movie Top Gun, where flight control, Maverick, you're at three quarters of a mile.
Call the ball.
Maverick, Roger.
Maverick has the ball.
So will Trump and the Patriots call the ball?
Will they have the ball during this period of time?
I do believe so.
Because what are we seeing?
Well, we're starting to see the National Guard.
They're being deployed in Texas.
They're being deployed in Pennsylvania and many other places.
Do you think this is just for the elections?
Or do you think it's something else?
I do believe it is something else.
And that brings us back to Post 22.
This is November 1st, 2017.
Who controls the National Guard?
Why was the National Guard recently activated in select cities within the U.S.?
Can the National Guard work in coordination with the Marines?
Yes.
Do conditions need to be satisfied to authorize?
Yes.
What former president used the military to save the republic and what occurred exactly?
Biggest drop to ever be provided on the boards.
Study and prepare.
The masses tend to panic in such situations.
No war, no civil unrest, clean and swift.
So the federal law permits a president to federalize the Guard under very limited circumstances, including when he is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States.
This language may be open to interpretation, but in the context of the election, it appears to allow federalization only if there is a fundamental breakdown in state and local officials' ability to conduct voting and vote counting.
If the president federalizes Guard troops, they are then under his control, not the governor's.
And the president can order them into a state without the governor's permission.
So, we've been told about this a long time ago.
Because when they come after the White House...
When they make their move in D.C. and other cities, this will be insurrection.
Now what's very interesting is that Trump was planning to be in his hotel or a hotel during the elections.
And it seems that on election night, he decided that he was going to be in the White House.
And what's very interesting about this is that they're calling the White House the fortress.
And this is what the White House said.
There's really no reason to move from point A to point B.
I'm not sure you can control the number of people who show up at a hotel.
The White House is a bit more of a fortress.
And that reminded me of Post 501.
Now, there's a lot of different letters and characters in this, and it says, you know, P underscore P-E-R-S, one confirmed.
But down below, it says, for God and country, Sky Fortress engaged.
And I believe Sky Fortress is Air Force One.
The White House is a fortress engaged.
Are they preparing for what's to come?
I do believe they know this playbook, they see what's happening, and they've been prepping for this for a very long time.
Let's move on to post 4942.
This is a link to time.com, and it says, The Great Reset.
The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a unique opportunity to think about the kind of future we want.
Time partnered with the World Economic Forum to ask leadership thinkers to share ideas for how to transform the way we live and work.
Now this is the reset the central bankers want.
They're pushing this now.
We mentioned this in the economic report.
Down below, Q says, this is not about Republican versus Democrat.
This is about preserving our way of life.
If America falls, the world falls.
Patriots on guard.
And this is not just a reset of the economy.
It's a reset...
On everything.
Where the United States is no longer the United States.
There is no constitution.
They blend the worlds together.
It's controlled by one government.
People are receiving this guaranteed income.
You can't move up.
You can't move down.
Yes, those people that are the elite.
Yes, they'll live very, very well.
Just like we've seen in many other nations.
But this is what they are planning right now.
Let's move on to post 4,943.
This is a Twitter link from Brent Shear.
And it says, So let me just read the part here on PolitiFact.
An anti-Black Lives Matter flag replaced the American flag behind President Trump during a Waukesha campaign rally.
Mostly true.
So down below it says fact checkers created an effort to reinforce propaganda digestion.
The battle to prevent truth from reaching the people.
The battle to maintain and push division.
Divide you are weak.
Divided you fight each other.
Divided you pose no threat.
System of control.
Information warfare.
And we can see that the deep state, the mainstream media, the corrupt politicians, they're pulling out everything they have to create chaos, to stop everything that Trump is trying to do, that we the people are trying to do.
And this is why I do believe that he waited for the elections to show the deep state, to show the world that the people are united.
Remember, this is just the beginning with the Bidens, with all that information about corruption coming out.
The people have to be behind Trump to move forward.
And he needs to show the mainstream media, the deep state, the corrupt, the invisible enemy that you no longer control these people.
They can think for themselves.
They're awake.
You can't put them back to sleep.
No one is buying what you're selling.
And I do believe that this is the strength that he's going to need to push forward against these corrupt individuals.
Push against the invisible enemy.
Push against the central bank.
