  1. 0:00I want to tell you to prepare for
  2. 0:01impact. And this is something that I
  3. 0:03don't say lightly. It is something that
  4. 0:06Jason and I have talked about for a
  5. 0:08while. I have I have
  6. 0:11You can dismiss this all you want and
  7. 0:14you might be right.
  8. 0:15But I want to show you a trend and some
  9. 0:17things that have been bothering me.
  10. 0:20And
  11. 0:21tell you what I think is a prudent
  12. 0:24thing to do.
  13. 0:26Last time I said something like this was
  14. 0:272007 I think when I was when it had been
  15. 0:31bothering me, bothering me, bothering me
  16. 0:33for a long time and and
  17. 0:36you [clears throat] know what happened
  18. 0:37in 2008.
  19. 0:39I want you to prepare for impact. I'm
  20. 0:41going to explain that here in a second,
  21. 0:42but
  22. 0:44I think it was on Monday the the UK
  23. 0:47government launched a national campaign
  24. 0:49called be ready.
  25. 0:51Be ready.
  26. 0:54What they're saying is every household
  27. 0:56in the country should have water, food
  28. 0:59that needs no cooking.
  29. 1:01That means lack of power, medicine, a
  30. 1:03flashlight, a wind-up radio, and cash.
  31. 1:06And enough to last 3 days.
  32. 1:1072 hours is how long it usually takes
  33. 1:13when a government can respond. If
  34. 1:16there's a big emergency, it's usually 72
  35. 1:19hours. So you know
  36. 1:21after 72 hours things begin to break
  37. 1:24down. Look at any big disaster. You look
  38. 1:27at Katrina. Everything held together
  39. 1:29pretty well for 72 hours. Once there is
  40. 1:34no help coming after 72 hours, that's
  41. 1:37when the bad guys decide I can take
  42. 1:40this. Okay?
  43. 1:42So be careful on the 72-hour thing, but
  44. 1:44pay attention.
  45. 1:46So they're asking everybody in the UK to
  46. 1:49be ready. Their words, not mine. And
  47. 1:52Britain is not alone on this. Germany is
  48. 1:54telling its people to keep 10 days.
  49. 1:57France and Ireland and the Netherlands
  50. 1:59also want 72-hour kits in every home.
  51. 2:03The Dutch are even now telling their
  52. 2:05people how much cash to keep in a
  53. 2:07drawer. When's the last time you had
  54. 2:08cash?
  55. 2:10Do you even carry cash anymore?
  56. 2:13You need to have cash.
  57. 2:15You must have cash. What they're saying
  58. 2:18what by saying they have to have cash.
  59. 2:20Now, they say again,
  60. 2:21multiple countries in Europe, they're
  61. 2:24saying right now, put cash in a drawer.
  62. 2:26What is that? That's because they
  63. 2:28believe there could be some sort of
  64. 2:30digital disruption.
  65. 2:33Now, Sweden dusted off its old Cold War
  66. 2:36pamphlet about 6 months ago and they
  67. 2:37wrote it rewrote it for today and it
  68. 2:39reminds citizens that
  69. 2:41in a war, the these are their words, not
  70. 2:44mine.
  71. 2:45Reminder, this is from the Cold War and
  72. 2:47they've updated it. In a war, you have a
  73. 2:49duty to help.
  74. 2:52The Swiss also have done exactly the
  75. 2:55same thing. They've been doing this for
  76. 2:57decades, but they got they stopped after
  77. 2:59the Cold War and they've gotten serious
  78. 3:00about it again. The European Union has
  79. 3:03asked all 450 million of its people to
  80. 3:07do the same. Prepare.
  81. 3:11Now, why?
  82. 3:14Well, it's crisis commissioner called
  83. 3:17being ready for anything is, quote, our
  84. 3:20new European way of life.
  85. 3:25Okay, now come home to the United
  86. 3:26States. September 30th, Secretary of War
  87. 3:28signed a memo creating something called
  88. 3:30Fortress. I don't know if you heard
  89. 3:32about it, but under Fortress, every
  90. 3:35major military base in the continental
  91. 3:37US must be able to run for 90 days
  92. 3:42without any outside help. It's requiring
  93. 3:46now to have their own power, its own
  94. 3:48water, its own fuel, its own food and be
  95. 3:51able to close those gates and run for 90
  96. 3:55days.
  97. 3:57Its own communications, everything.
  98. 4:00Some bases are going to get their own
  99. 4:03small nuclear reactors.
  100. 4:11That's now the standard
  101. 4:13in the United States. It was just
  102. 4:15announced.
  103. 4:16The Pentagon's chief spokesman said, and
  104. 4:19I'm quoting, "In the next major war,
  105. 4:21global supply chains will break." Do you
  106. 4:24remember what happened during COVID? If
  107. 4:26you think that's bad, imagine war.
  108. 4:31Then there is also the RF the RAF base
  109. 4:35in Fairford.
  110. 4:36This is the base in England where the
  111. 4:38American B-1 bombers where we fly our
  112. 4:41bombers to strike on Iran, okay?
  113. 4:44Early hours of September 27th, neighbors
  114. 4:47called the police about white vans and
  115. 4:49masked men near the fence. And what did
  116. 4:51the prime minister over there say? Well,
  117. 4:53that's nothing. They were just crazy. It
  118. 4:55was just they're having a picnic in the
  119. 4:57middle of the night. Remember?
  120. 4:59Five men were arrested on suspicion of
  121. 5:01preparing a terrorist act. Then our
  122. 5:04American bombers were pulled out because
  123. 5:06we I my guess is we didn't think that
  124. 5:09they were taking this seriously.
  125. 5:11Yesterday, Great Britain
  126. 5:14arrested two 24-year-old British men
  127. 5:18charged under Britain's National
  128. 5:20Security Act.
  129. 5:22Both have unpronounceable names. Either
  130. 5:25Muhammad or Abdul is their first.
  131. 5:28One is accused of assisting a foreign
  132. 5:31intelligence service. Now, Britain's top
  133. 5:34counter-terror cop named that country,
  134. 5:37Iran.
  135. 5:40The prime minister says the plot was
  136. 5:42almost certain quoting, "Almost
  137. 5:44certainly directed by the Revolutionary
  138. 5:47Guard." And that more than 50 people
  139. 5:50have been arrested over Iran-linked
  140. 5:52plots in Great Britain just in the last
  141. 5:55few months.
  142. 5:57Don't know if you saw this piece of news
  143. 5:58in Palm Beach.
  144. 6:01The army has now put the Avenger air
  145. 6:04defense system on a barge in the
  146. 6:07Intercoastal Waterway outside of
  147. 6:09Mar-a-Lago.
  148. 6:11It is in plain view now of anyone
  149. 6:13driving down the Southern Boulevard.
  150. 6:16Who confirmed it? And who is running it?
  151. 6:20NORAD.
  152. 6:22NORAD
  153. 6:24has put it in and is running it at the
  154. 6:26request of the Secret Service. Same day,
  155. 6:30the Director of National Intelligence
  156. 6:32warned Secretary of State that Iran has
  157. 6:34substantially increased its efforts to
  158. 6:37target plain old everyday Americans and
  159. 6:41some of those advanced plots have
  160. 6:43reached advanced stages.
  161. 6:47Now,
  162. 6:49none of these stories
  163. 6:51mean the sky is falling. None of these.
  164. 6:55A government asking you to keep 3 days
  165. 6:57of water is asking you to do what your
  166. 6:59grandmother did without being told.
  167. 7:03You know,
  168. 7:04she would can.
  169. 7:06Our Our grandparents knew. I Every time
  170. 7:08I would say, you know, they would talk
  171. 7:09about the Depression and I'd be like,
  172. 7:11"Grandma and Grandpa, this is not going
  173. 7:12to happen again. It can't happen again."
  174. 7:13They were like, my grandfather would
  175. 7:15turn to me and he would look at me like
  176. 7:17death in his eyes and he'd go, "Don't
  177. 7:20ever think that way. You have no idea
  178. 7:22how fast this can collapse." They lived
  179. 7:25through it.
  180. 7:28So, none of these stories is tall the
  181. 7:30sky is falling, but you put them side by
  182. 7:32side, capital after capital in the same
  183. 7:36couple of months,
  184. 7:39what do you get?
  185. 7:40You get people telling its own people
  186. 7:45prepare.
  187. 7:47You get them saying, "When something
  188. 7:48breaks, you're going to be on your own
  189. 7:50for a while." Hear me.
  190. 7:53When something breaks, you're going to
  191. 7:55be on your own for a while. And while
  192. 7:58our own military is planning to be on
  193. 8:01its own for 3 months, you should do the
  194. 8:05same.
  195. 8:07Do you understand what that means? All
  196. 8:08of our bases have to run
  197. 8:11and have to be self-sufficient for 90
  198. 8:14days. That means no help is coming.
  199. 8:22So, here's my read on this and take it
  200. 8:24for what it's worth.
  201. 8:26But, I will tell you I feel compelled to
  202. 8:29tell you these things.
  203. 8:34People who are running the West
  204. 8:37know
  205. 8:39things are breaking down.
  206. 8:41They see the same numbers we do.
  207. 8:44We see economies that have stopped
  208. 8:46growing all over Europe.
  209. 8:48They have sabotaged their own
  210. 8:50refineries. They have sabotaged their
  211. 8:52own ability to make electricity.
  212. 8:55They have not paid for their own
  213. 8:57military. They have societies that are
  214. 9:00unwilling or unable to fight for itself.
  215. 9:05You have a Europe with absolutely no
  216. 9:07plan to grow again.
  217. 9:10It has all been managed decline.
  218. 9:13You open the borders to millions of
  219. 9:15people
  220. 9:17without asking the people who already
  221. 9:19live there and then without asking those
  222. 9:21millions of people who the hell are you?
  223. 9:25They also have no will to ask newcomers
  224. 9:29to embrace the culture that took them
  225. 9:30in.
  226. 9:32And so, what do you have? You have
  227. 9:34Islamist organizing in the open telling
  228. 9:37you what they're going to do.
  229. 9:40You have Marxist and common communists
  230. 9:42now no longer bothering to hide what
  231. 9:45they want or who they are. They are
  232. 9:47telling you that they are going to
  233. 9:51overthrow the West and the United States
  234. 9:54of America. You can dismiss these
  235. 9:56things. You know,
  236. 9:57somebody asked me
  237. 9:58Glenn, you know, cuz I I said there will
  238. 10:02be buildings and bodies in the streets
  239. 10:04of New York within the next 10 years. I
  240. 10:06said that on WABC in 1999.
  241. 10:11I said there will be blood and bodies
  242. 10:13and buildings in this city on these
  243. 10:16streets and it will have Osama bin
  244. 10:18Laden's name on it.
  245. 10:21I have warned you about things that have
  246. 10:23come true. I have warned you about
  247. 10:25things that haven't come true and I hope
  248. 10:26this is one of those that don't come
  249. 10:28true.
  250. 10:29But here's how I know.
  251. 10:32Here's how I know you should prepare.
  252. 10:35How did you get that right about Osama
  253. 10:36bin Laden? I read what he said.
  254. 10:40And like a normal human being, when
  255. 10:42someone says they're going to kill you,
  256. 10:46they're going to take your family,
  257. 10:49they're going to destroy your culture,
  258. 10:51believe them. You're an idiot if you
  259. 10:54don't. They may not mean it. They may
  260. 10:57not have the ability, but if you don't
  261. 11:00take them at their word,
  262. 11:03you are suicidal.
  263. 11:06That's what I was saying in 1999. My
  264. 11:10whole monologue was about take this guy
  265. 11:12seriously.
  266. 11:16So Europe is now just trying they're
  267. 11:19trying to figure out they're realizing,
  268. 11:21oh crap, we are not going to be able to
  269. 11:24control this decline. It could blow up
  270. 11:27in our face. And so now they're telling
  271. 11:29their people shore up whatever you can.
  272. 11:33Now none of them are going to tell you
  273. 11:35why they're saying that.
  274. 11:38Because the the explanation ends in a
  275. 11:41confession.
  276. 11:44We've warned you for your own people
  277. 11:46have warned you for years. You called
  278. 11:49them bigots. You kept going.
  279. 11:52No one in Brussels or London is going to
  280. 11:54give the speech that says, boy, were we
  281. 11:56wrong. We should have listened to the
  282. 11:57people. So instead, you get a pamphlet
  283. 12:00about bottled water.
  284. 12:03Is it too late for Europe? I don't know.
  285. 12:06I pray it isn't.
  286. 12:10But I'll say what they won't.
  287. 12:16And I hope and pray I'm wrong.
  288. 12:20But massive war is coming.
  289. 12:24I want you to do an experiment. I want
  290. 12:25you to pick a controversial story and in
  291. 12:27the news like AI data centers and try
  292. 12:30searching what's AI's impact on energy
  293. 12:33and China's position. Look what comes
  294. 12:35back. Then go to Free Spoke and search
  295. 12:38for the exact same thing. I guarantee
  296. 12:40you're going to see a different picture.
  297. 12:41These are important topics for our
  298. 12:43nation and you need a full
  299. 12:44understanding. If you're wondering, why
  300. 12:47do I keep saying the same stories from
  301. 12:49the same sources over and over again?
  302. 12:50Who decided this is what I'm supposed to
  303. 12:52see? That's the problem with algorithms.
  304. 12:55Once somebody else is ranking the
  305. 12:56information for you, that someone has a
  306. 12:58thumb on your scale. I started using
  307. 13:01Free Spoke for a couple of reasons. They
  308. 13:03don't track me, they give me news from
  309. 13:05across viewpoints and they let me decide
  310. 13:08what matters. When I think Google's
  311. 13:09hiding it, Free Spoke always finds it.
  312. 13:11So don't take my word for it. Run the
  313. 13:13experiment yourself. Search the same
  314. 13:15story on Google and then Free Spoke side
  315. 13:17by side, see the difference. Then go to
  316. 13:19your app store, download Free Spoke and
  317. 13:22start seeing what you've been missing.
  318. 13:24Now it may not be tank crossing a border
  319. 13:27on a Tuesday morning like we normally
  320. 13:29think about it, though no one in Poland
  321. 13:31or the Baltics are ruling that out.
  322. 13:34More likely it is the kind of war
  323. 13:36already begun but
  324. 13:40enough to cause massive disruption.
  325. 13:44Vans outside of airbases, synagogues
  326. 13:46firebombed, power grids, water systems
  327. 13:49probed and bombed or destroyed,
  328. 13:51neighborhoods
  329. 13:53that are in trouble, in crisis with
  330. 13:56people on the street and the state no
  331. 13:57longer fully controlling it.
  332. 14:02America is not immune.
  333. 14:05And damn it, we are going into this
  334. 14:07election and how many Americans are
  335. 14:09blind, how many Americans will hear this
  336. 14:11warning and write it off.
  337. 14:15>> Please don't.
  338. 14:19I beg you, please don't write this off.
  339. 14:23The radicals are already inside our
  340. 14:25house. They're all over the West.
  341. 14:28And that includes here, and in 6 days we
  342. 14:31vote. Our vote is not going to stop this
  343. 14:35from happening, but it may slow it down.
  344. 14:40And I warn you, if that this election
  345. 14:42goes poorly, this is not about scaring
  346. 14:45you into voting.
  347. 14:47This is about telling you the truth.
  348. 14:49Don't expect a gentle correction. Expect
  349. 14:53the radicals who have already told you
  350. 14:56what they want to abolish the Senate,
  351. 14:59abolish ICE, erase the border, to treat
  352. 15:02the gavel as permission.
  353. 15:05That's what they're telling you. Take
  354. 15:07them at their word,
  355. 15:10or you're suicidal.
  356. 15:13Because by January, we could look less
  357. 15:15like America and more like Brazil or
  358. 15:18France.
  359. 15:20A country where one judge can switch off
  360. 15:22a social network for an entire nation.
  361. 15:26Do you know they just asked for the
  362. 15:27switch to the network? They said prepare
  363. 15:30for us to shut down all social media in
  364. 15:34Europe. They just made that announcement
  365. 15:36last week.
  366. 15:43I do not like giving you these warnings.
  367. 15:49Prepare for impact.
  368. 15:51Do not panic. Do not change your life
  369. 15:54Make plans for Christmas. Go visit your
  370. 15:57relatives on Christmas and Thanksgiving.
  371. 15:59When a pilot says brace for impact, he's
  372. 16:02not screaming. He's calm because he
  373. 16:05knows what's going to happen next, and
  374. 16:07he wants you to know it, too, so you are
  375. 16:10not freaking out. Start with simple
  376. 16:13things. If they say 3 days, do 2 weeks.
  377. 16:18Just brace for impact. If that video
  378. 16:22made you think
  379. 16:23wait a minute, there has to be more to
  380. 16:24this story. Good. Yes, there usually is.
  381. 16:27Subscribe to this channel and we'll go
  382. 16:28down the rabbit hole together. And trust
  383. 16:30me, we're nowhere near the bottom.
