Welcome to The Village Oak Tree

I am your host, Terrance Ó Domhnaill.

Here we are, entering the Ides of March, as the old saying goes. The sun has been shining a wee bit where I am, along with rising temperatures. And I'm a few days behind on my normal schedule this week.

I'm still dealing with home repairs caused by climate change this winter and I'm not done yet. But the work I needed to do to date did cause an interruption in my normal schedule. With everything that's going on in my household, and the world at large, I shouldn't be too awfully worried about this minor hiccup. Given the way things are moving so fast, this may not be the last schedule disruption I will incur this year.

I managed to find a handful of news stories from across the spectrum, in between my work schedule, to point out how all of this is going to affect average citizens around the world.

Once I've finished talking about the stories I found for this week, I would ask everyone to stick around through my commercial break so I can read to you another chapter of The Priest, from Michael Campi.

So, come sit you down somewhere in a patch of spring sunshine, or a warm cozy spot if you live in the more northern climates, and let me regale you with what I have found.

(00:00):
Welcome to the Village Oak Tree. I'm your host, Terence O'Donnell. Here we are, entering

(00:18):
the Ides of March as the old saying goes. The sun has been shining a wee bit where I
am, along with rising temperatures. And I'm a few days behind on my normal schedule this
week. I'm still dealing with home repairs caused by climate change this winter, and
I'm not done yet. The work I needed to do to date did cause an interruption in my normal
schedule. But everything that's going on in my household and the world at large, I shouldn't

(00:43):
be too awfully worried about this minor hiccup. Given the way things are moving so fast, this
may not be the last schedule interruption I'll incur this year. I didn't manage to find
a handful of news stories from across the spectrum in between my work schedule to point out how
all of this is going to affect average citizens around the world. Once I've finished talking

(01:04):
about the stories I found for this week, I would ask everyone to stick around through
my commercial break so I can read to you another chapter of The Priest from Michael Campy.
So come sit you down somewhere in a patch of spring sunshine or a warm cozy spot if you
live in the more northern climates. And let me regale you with what I found for this week.

(01:29):
As I said, I was a bit, you know, I struggled a little bit, you know, as far as what to
do this week because of everything that was going on. And I was at a bit of a loss is
what I wanted to say this week. And after watching the chaos every morning before going
to work, I finally managed to come up with something. Part of it is because I've been
very busy with house repairs, as I mentioned over the last week, plus going out to work

(01:52):
at some IT gig jobs that have come up a lot lately. And now I'm tired. I spent the last
month dealing with the remnants of my burst water pipe in the wall from the last week
of January between organizing contractors, order materials, having to do some of the
repairs myself because of a shady home insurance company. And this week, finding out that the

(02:12):
hardwood floor material I ordered got lost in shipping. And the company can't replace
the missing shipment. So I have to start all over again, all of which makes me a little
tired. At first, my excuse was physical, as I didn't finish the repairs to my guest bathroom
until late last Wednesday evening, which Wednesday be in my normal day for the show. And doing

(02:34):
the show was not going to happen. So I told myself that I would put it off until I had
some more free time, which here Saturday, I actually have a free day sort of. I'm sort
of there now with the bathroom complete, for the most part. My wife will finish the rest
with my help, of course. My hardwood flooring will have to wait till I can find the materials

(02:55):
again. This is the new America. We better get used to this from here on out. The overseas
supply chains are already starting to dry up. Then there's my next project, which is
to replace an out of date, as in discontinued gas fireplace. I have materials ready to go
mostly. And I'll be starting that next week. So who knows, I may have another scheduled

(03:20):
interruption just because I'll be knee deep and putting a new fireplace in. Once I have
those projects completed, I'll be done for the year unless I have another weather emergency.
I told my wife that we need to complete all home repair projects early this year before
the prices of materials go up because of the tariffs that are probably going to be imposed,

(03:41):
even though Trump can't seem to make up his mind this week. And with that in mind, I've
got a story here that I'll show you. Just how exactly what that means. Let me bring
this story up here.

(04:06):
I got the story in the next one out of CBC Canada. As you can see, Trump says, we're
going to do the 25% tariff next week after a month long pause, which is supposed to be
March 4th. This is what we can expect, right? You think he's been saying it long enough?

(04:33):
But as we can see, he can't seem to make up his mind. Okay? So let me bring up this other
one. All right? And this, you'll see what I mean.

(04:54):
And then I have this story. Big tariffs on Canada, not necessarily what White House says.
Well, you know what? This was the beginning of these two stories were for the beginning

(05:15):
of this week. Monday, he said tariffs. Tuesday, he said maybe not. Now everybody's geared
up because now he's saying it again. I mean, really, you know, he needs to make up his
mind. Yes or no. You know, Canada is right now sitting on the edge trying to figure
out what's coming next. So the thing is, we all know that's nothing new. He says one

(05:39):
thing turns around and says something else the next day, or sometimes within just a few
hours. I mean, you can't never tell. And as when somebody pointed out this week, almost
everything he says is a lie or a blatant exaggeration. So the big thing is, I do think he'll eventually
get around to setting him in place eventually. The ones for China were already set. It's

(06:00):
only a short matter of time before the retail market starts to reflect these new taxes,
building materials being at the top of my list right now. So I'm just, you know, I'm
just like any other normal person, I got stuff I got to take care of, and I'm having trouble

(06:20):
getting stuff ordered in. I can't just run down to the local store. Well, unless unless
I want to occur a lot more expenses, you know, by changing out the complete flooring in my
house, I have to order I have to special order to stuff. And as I said, it's it's you know,
the delays are getting ridiculous. So I set aside some interesting articles over the last

(06:44):
few days. But now some of them seem to be rather minuscule compared to the more important
things I discovered late this week. Like all this business of Trump trying to shake down
Ukraine over all those Russian rare earth and other minerals. I'm sure everybody has
been talking about this. Okay. I mean, really, um, the deal making with Putin in a Kremlin

(07:09):
over any in the war, and who gets the spoils, once the troops are pulled back, has been
that it's been a big topic. Europe is all in a tether about this. And they said they're
more prominent emissaries to the White House to try and curry favor from the want to be
king of the Western world. Both Macron and Starmer have paid business to the castle in
Washington in order to persuade Trump to give Europe what they want. Both left pretty much

(07:33):
empty handed. I watched a couple of military experts this week tell us that Egypt is moving
its military to the border of Israel and Palestine. These retired military officers are saying
that Egypt may be getting ready to invade. Maybe even coordinate with their neighbors
to put a stop to Israelis. There is talk of Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Egypt, and maybe Jordan

(07:57):
working on some kind of a plan to subdue Israel and help the Palestinians. Wouldn't that set
off a bunch of fireworks in the Middle East? Maybe even Turkey will get into the mix and
help drive the IDF out of southwestern Syria. Now, a major conflict in the Middle East may
not have a direct impact on your American public at first. But as we may remember from

(08:21):
past fricases in the Middle East, a regional war will have an effect on shipments of oil
from that region and drive up the price of oil and gas around the world, especially in
the US. As with previous spikes like this in the past, when the price of gas and diesel
goes way up, the people protest in the streets to try and force the government to do something
about it. With Trump in a White House, you can guess how he'll handle something like

(08:45):
that. Much like how we watched him not handle the COVID pandemic back in 2020. He probably
won't handle a major economic crisis any better either. It's becoming painfully obvious
that Trump is doing what he always does. He has a plan sort of in motion that suffers
little tweaks nearly every day when he lies about something one day and reverses himself

(09:08):
the next day or just outright lies to everyone without regard for the consequences. Then
this latest spectacle on Friday with the public argument for Zelensky with him not being
respectful enough for the mafia don. I do have a story for that. This is one I got from

(09:36):
Zatayo who I subscribe to for a lot of things. They have some pretty good stuff. But as you
can see, this is just one independent news. This was all over the news everywhere you
could think of. So as I said, this is the latest spectacle on Friday with the public
argument. Trump's always Trump not acting like an old school Sicilian mobster. But then

(10:05):
I digress. I have an article for one of my favorite Americans. He's a climate engineer
and according to his latest article, he also has a master's degree in economics. So let
me let me pull that up for you. And I'll kind of show you where it's at. And this is this

(10:36):
is this is his article, The Coming Debt Trap, How Trump's Economic Moves Could Reshape
Your Financial Future. He tells us in this latest article that Trump's supposed plan
to artificially inflate the price of gold in order to cash in on that while fleeceing

(10:56):
in middle class and the poor. Of course, this would also benefit the morbidly rich who can
afford to invest in significant amount of funds to take advantage of this artificial
price hike. While this is speculation so far, he lays out a pretty convincing argument
about how this is shaping out. For those of us who have invested in gold, it could be

(11:18):
a nice short term get risk scheme until people figure out the scam and the price drops like
a stone. But according to the author, that's the point. Buy low and sell high before anyone
could figure it out. He speculates that this may be the real reason Trump wants to send
must to the federal treasury facilities, the inventory, the gold bullion and evaluate its

(11:41):
worth. Imagine a horror if Trump and must manage to somehow steal the US gold. Who would
be the ultimate con job or just outright thievery? Of course, everybody knows he thinks that
nobody can touch him or is the courts a concern. There's more to there's more to this in the
article. So I urge as many people as possible to read this and decide for yourselves. Our

(12:05):
King Donald and his boy wonder planning on stealing US Treasury somehow. As if there isn't
enough hygiene is going on in the land we seek. Musk is also gutting the FAA. These
gutting air traffic controllers across the country. He wants to dump Verizon as communication

(12:27):
provider for all the air air towers. There's speculation in the story that he wants to
replace Verizon with this Starlink systems. That shouldn't surprise anyone by now. More
and more is beginning to look like Musk is planning on replacing as much infrastructure
as possible with his different corporate products with the blessings of the US president. Maybe

(12:47):
they will even share a little bit of that spoils of war with Bezos and Zuckerberg. Who
knows anymore? And last but not least this week, I've been reading a lot of climate environmental
articles lately since Trump and Musk have defunded and fire nearly everyone in the
EPA by now. To keep it all simple, for those of us who will live around all these polluted

(13:10):
places in the US without the EPA to keep things legal, more and more people are going to get
sick and die in the future. I have an article from inside Clive News that talks about how
a nuclear power plant that had been on the chopping block is now going to be revived
in order to keep up with the high demand for more and more electricity. So let me bring

(13:30):
that up. So as I said, this is from inside climate news. It talks about this nuclear

(13:50):
power plant on the coast of Lake Michigan on the Michigan side, which was sited and slated
for shutdown, cited as in like fine and all kinds of other punishments until recently
for cooling the leakages and into the lake air from the smoke stacks that was making people
sick. And it says people living around this plant have a large percentage of thyroid cancer

(14:11):
and other maladies, which is why they were going to shut the plant down and demolish
it. This is just one example of all the corporate polluters who are now going to literally get
away with murder by the hundreds. These corporations don't care. They never really did. I'm old
not to remember when all the largest corporations were being held to task, fined and even some
executives arrested through the decades until now. In this new age, fossil fuel companies

(14:37):
and any other polluters who were always operating on the margins of safety and pollution will
now have free rein to do whatever they want, as there's no longer anyone to hold them
accountable anymore. This applies to general workplace safety as well. I'm sure that everyone
who has ever worked in any type of industrial environment has heard of OSHA. I know I have.

(15:03):
When I had my own service company, even though most of the time I was the only employee,
I still had to keep OSHA safety posters up where anyone could see them. That's the law
or used to be anyway. Maybe not anymore. It seems the US is moving backward in time to
when workplace safety, whether it involves moving objects or pollution is becoming a

(15:24):
thing of the past. With health insurance becoming so expensive for nearly everyone, if someone
gets hurt at work, they may be out of luck all the way around. Without workplace health
insurance or enforced safety regulations, going to work may become hazardous to your
health. But then, now working is also hazardous to your health for different reasons. The

(15:45):
working class in the United States appear to be entering a damned if you do and damned
if you don't situation anymore with regard to taking care of their families. There's
so much speculation about where the United States is heading as far as the near future
is concerned. There are strong rumors circulating in the media that the 2026 midterm elections
are already being decided as far as congressional candidates are concerned. There are spreading

(16:09):
rumors that the MAGA party is already rigging the election right now in 2025 to further
restrict who could vote and who the voters can vote for in 2026. This is to set up a
new single party electorate in the US for 2028. Given how Congress is largely sitting
on their hands right now, fawning over the new president, letting the executive branch

(16:31):
do whatever it wants, the US just might look like Hungary, Russia, or North Korea by 2028.
I don't know about any of you folks, but I can't afford to go looking for a better place
to live on planet Earth. Europe is collapsing. Africa is a chaotic mess as they are suffering
growing pains while they throw out their old colonizers such as France, Britain, and the

(16:52):
US, and many others. Central and South America are also up and up people to a degree while
they try to sort themselves out after some of them thumbed their noses at the US and
the US is trying to play the bully still. Then there is Asia. China has the fastest growing
economy in the world as anyone not living under a rock knows by now. And the United

(17:14):
States is having connexions over this. This is the main reason they are dissing Europe
right now, causing all kinds of anxiety over there. The US is trying to pivot to the Pacific
in order to step on China with an iron-shod boot, and they don't have the money to take
care of Europe while they try to shut down the Chinese. There are lots of analysts who
are telling anyone who will listen that the US is doing all the work towards enacting

(17:37):
a maritime blockade of China in order to choke off their economy. The US doesn't want any
competitors in the world markets, and they have no problems using every dirty trick they
can muster up to accomplish that. It's not like this is anything new. The United States
has been doing this for over 100 years, and as I mentioned here before, these morbidly
rich Americans seem to have an addiction to hoarding money, much like drugs or alcohol

(18:00):
or gambling. The crash of 1929 was the first time their
scans brought some of their house of cars down, but that didn't stop them for long.
In the World War II, they saw another opportunity, and they've been working at being this monopoly
on and off ever since. The crash of 2008 didn't deter them that much, as then President

(18:21):
Obama famously bailed the biggest ones out at the expense of the taxpayers in order to
keep the country out of a major depression that these corporate banks got everyone into
in the first place. I thought back then and still do that he was wrong. He should have
let them all go belly up. Sure, it would have hurt the economy some of the time, but the

(18:41):
US would likely be in a better place now if he had.
In the year 2025, the US has a president who is all in on the US being the economic monopoly
of the world. It doesn't have a clue on how to get that done
smartly, so he's falling back on standard mafia tactics. Bullying anyone he can get
what he wants. Course those he can't bully or lie to them in order to trick them into

(19:05):
giving what he wants. Bottom line, use any trick possible to get what he wants.
Surely everyone in the world, media, social media has a front row to this. The big question
everyone watching this spectacle is asking. What's he going to do next? No one knows
one day to the next what's going to happen once the sun comes up in the morning. Everything

(19:29):
he says in public is taken at face value, even though most people know he's lying nearly
every time he says something from exacting facts to outright figments of the imagination.
The trouble is no one can afford to dismiss him. He has too much power in the world and
no one is sure whether he will be crazy enough to wield it against them.

(19:50):
These state visits by France, Britain, and Ukraine this week were perfect examples.
Meanwhile, while we're watching the circus and watching DC, there are movements taking
place behind the scenes to maneuver things towards the private sector.
Jessica Wildfire provided an article from Politico about how private security corporations
are trying to push Trump into authorizing private immigration forces, more private prisons

(20:14):
and private planes to expedite the illegal immigration removals around the country.
They're already getting lots of news stories of people being rounded up and sent to Guantanamo,
Vancouver, then on to their final destination, their original country. They may have entered
the country illegally and never committed any other crime, but they're being apprehended

(20:35):
anyway.
I haven't heard any more stories lately of American citizens or green card holders being
swept up again. That may be due to a massive cover-up, or maybe they haven't taken any
lately. I'm sure there'll be some eventually, though, if they're still planning to round
up millions of people.
Trump signs off on this bid for privatization, imagining companies worth a reputation of

(20:57):
BlackRock showing up in neighborhoods all across the U.S. searching homes without warrants
to arrest illegal immigrants. What could go wrong? Not to mention that now, Trump would
have his own private army, much like the German Browse Church or the Irish Black Intans of
the last century. I repeat, what could possibly go wrong? If history is any teacher, everything

(21:20):
will go wrong.
So far, according to this article in Politico, Trump has ignored this request. Maybe he's
not even aware of it. Maybe that's a good thing. Let's just hope it stays that way.
There's already enough chaos on what we can do without any more. And has anyone heard

(21:40):
about all these newly terminated federal employees are going to do for a living now? We have
yet to hear of the unemployment statistics that are going to go up because of all this.
But given how this government doesn't like to talk about bad economic news, it may take
a month or two before we see the numbers go up. And even then, Trump's people will likely
lie about it, much like Biden's people did. Will all of this add to the homeless population,

(22:04):
which stands at roughly 800,000 as of last fall? With one in five U.S. citizens taking
advantage of some part of Medicaid until now, you can bet that a large portion of them will
likely end up being homeless as well. While Trump spends tax dollars with bait and switch
programs to try to fool people into believing you slashed in the budget, the latest bill

(22:24):
making its way through Congress is just such one of those. A bait and switch. The only
ones benefiting from this legislation are the morbidly rich, according to the news sources.
They're not going to be tripping the budget, just moving the money into the pockets of
the oligarchs. The only good news is that last Friday there was a so-called boycott

(22:47):
at Corporate Retailers Day. It was supposed to be a national day that people could stop
buying things at corporate box stores. I mean, it's a good thing. It's a start, but
just one day is nothing more than an ineffectual symbolic gesture. If people really want to
make an economic impact, a boycott like that would have to last at least a month or more.

(23:10):
I don't see many Americans willing to make that kind of sacrifice yet. Look at what
happened back in 2020 when the country shut down for a month due to the pandemic. The
majority of the people went bonkers. They're still talking about that even now here in
2025. I don't know anymore where we're headed with all this. It most certainly looks like
a clown show at a circus. It's likely going on behind the scenes that scares me more these

(23:37):
days. It's things like that that will show up unannounced when released expected and
dramatically change our lives forever. Things like firing the joint chiefs of staff at the
Pentagon for stupid reasons or no reason at all, fake reasons, in order to replace them
with finding loyalists who will not question orders from the commander in chief, firing
a large percentage of the civil servants, and this mass roundup of millions of illegal

(24:01):
immigrants without warrants that have me looking over my shoulder more these days. I'm also
asking myself nearly every day when I watch or read the news, what's coming next? What
new surprise can we expect today or tomorrow? So many people across the U.S. are also asking
themselves the same questions. So many are now worried about whether they're going to

(24:22):
have a roof over their heads and access to food tomorrow, next week, next month. Many
others are wondering if any American immigration militias will be paying them a visit soon.
Although I may not be worried too much about immigration authorities personally, simply
because the color of my skin, I am worried about the economy. If things keep going the

(24:44):
way they are, we may all be experiencing food and shelter insecurity someday within the
next couple of years, or at least those of us who are not morally rich anyway. For those
who voted for Trump in order to save them from economic ruin, I'm sorry, but you are
conned once again. This time from someone who will go down in the history books as the

(25:04):
greatest grifter in history. It'll take a while for all of us to sink in, but it will
eventually. Then what? It's not like the U.S. can vote for non-confidence in their government
like the Europeans and the Canadians can do. Once elected, the executive branch is there
for four long years, unless they die or removed from very serious crimes, like Richard Nixon

(25:26):
and his VP were back in the 1970. What was it? 1974. Now, the thing is, we already tried
down with Trump the last time he was president, and we saw how that worked out, don't we?
The U.S. is the only super power to have a convicted felon as a president. In the past,

(25:49):
we fired those criminals. Now we have a cult hero. I think he'll turn out to be more of
an anti-hero before too much longer. But then what? We have J.D. Vance as a backup. In
theatrics in the Oval Office with Zelensky last Friday, or a small example of what anyone
can expect from him. Senator Bernie Sanders is making the rounds of the country to try

(26:09):
and take the glitter off his government. We need more politicians like him to do the
same thing if we're going to save what's left of democracy. Democrats are way too slow
and not even visible right now, and that needs to change quickly. Maybe if enough independent
news people make enough noise, these Democrats will finally crawl out of their caves and

(26:31):
stand up fight. One can only hope as the lights are starting to go dim in the United States
as more and more customers take their business elsewhere. Europe and Canada are starting to
do that after last week. China has been doing that for a while and will be going ahead and
earn us now. Yeah, Africans will look harder towards China and Russia now that the U.S.

(26:51):
is proving to be more unreliable. South America is also, except for Argentina, moving closer
to China and Russia. It will take a bit, but eventually all of Trump's bullying will isolate
the U.S. from everyone else in the world and the economy will hit the brakes hard. I honestly
thought Trump would take a hint last week, but after Friday's antics, I no longer think

(27:13):
that. We need to all prepare for a global recession depression. Some countries will
get hit extremely hard, like in Western Europe and the U.K. Commonwealth, due to their ties
with the U.S. The rest will take a hit, but stay afloat due to their alliances that are
not so dependent on the U.S. The brakes block comes to mind when I say this. Get ready,

(27:34):
folks. Wherever you live on planet Earth, if Trump continues as he is doing, and I have
no reason to believe he will change, he will cause a major disruption across the globe,
and those of us who live in the Americas will feel it the most. I, for one, am taking care
of all my necessary things now while I still can, because unless something radically changes

(27:55):
very soon, those of us who don't have the luxury of six-figure incomes or more may end
up with food and shelter insecurities we haven't experienced since the 1930s. As we continue
to watch these clowns go from the White House in the United States, think about what I just
said. Trump is already impacting life across the developed world today. If you live in

(28:16):
Europe right now, how much has your economy tanked lately and impacted your lives? The
U.S. is starting to feel this a little bit now, but it's going to get worse very quickly,
very soon. Countries across the Americas are all scrambling to create new supply chains
right now to offset the loss of the U.S. markets due to the oncoming tariffs starting next week

(28:36):
on March 4th, unless Trump changes his mind again. You never know. If you truly want to
know what's going on, use the Internet to search out the independent news and learn
things that mainstream media is afraid to tell you and be very afraid, very, very afraid.
So that's all I've got for you this week. I'm going to let you listen to my little commercial

(29:01):
right now. And when I come back, I'll read another chapter of the priest from Michael
Campy.
I want to take this minute to explain how you can support this podcast and advertise
my book. The podcast is free and can be found on these major mobile podcast apps on my YouTube

(29:23):
channel and my sub stack page at crown of beehivethetreeoflife and substack.com. To help you frame
my cost, I'm asking for donations of any amount so everyone has an opportunity to watch or
listen to this podcast anywhere in the world. I set up a donations tab at rss.com and the

(29:44):
village oak tree and on my website at www.crownofbeehive.com and all linked PayPal for your security. This
way you can use any currency you wish from around the world providing PayPal is available
to you in your country.
So now let me tell you about my book.

(30:08):
Fugitives in New United States, which can be found in all major online book retailers
around the world, comes in hardcover paperback and ebook version. You don't want to wait
for them to print you one, you can also buy a hardcover paperback edition from me directly
to the bookstore page of my website and I'll ship it right out to you.
This is a dystopian fiction about what the United States might look like by 2031 under

(30:32):
a Christian theocracy. It's full of drama, action, and romance set against a backdrop
of US societal collapse. The story follows a tree of resistance fighters as they navigate
across upper New England and their quest to escape from their authoritarian regime.
So that's all I have here and I appreciate any effort you can to support this endeavor

(30:55):
that I'm doing no matter how small it may be. Thank you very much.
Welcome back. So let me bring you chapter 27.
This is the priest formerly known as Bob and this one's titled All Abored to Fun Train.
Dolly and poor crept up to an old truck parked just out at the camp. There were 20 men lying

(31:19):
around as though someone had just thrown a handful of men on the ground and left them
where they landed. Is this how they always sleep past Dolly? Yes. There's no rhyme or
reason to it. Mostly they just pass out and stay where they fall until they wake up. So
they always sleep at night most of the time unless they're going out on a raid. Where
do they stay in the daytime? There are all sorts of tunnels and vaults and underground

(31:42):
rooms that stay cool during the day. It's kind of rare that you find them sleep a sleep
outside at night. They're pretty pleased with themselves and don't think they have anything
to worry about. Well, let's see if we can change that. Is there one that was particularly
brutal and unpleasant said Dolly? They're all that way. But the leader was always the
worst. He seemed to think that to maintain his alpha position, he had to be meaner and

(32:05):
more violent than the rest. Would you know him if you saw him? She pointed at it and
said, he's right there in the middle. The one with the Viking hat on. A fucking Viking
hat? He thought it made him look scary. Okay, so here's your first lesson. You're just going
to kill him. I thought we were going to kill all of them. In any kind of violent physical

(32:26):
interaction with more than one opponent, your best strategy is to identify the top dog and
take him or her out first. This has this has a demoralizing effect on other attackers.
Imagine what's going to be like for these guys. If they wake up and find that someone
stuck into their camp and killed their leader, they'll probably panic. They'll real they'll

(32:47):
feel real fear knowing that they're not as invulnerable as they thought. It's not 100%
guaranteed, but it may scare them enough that they'll think twice about chasing chasing
us. Do you think that'll happen? Might might not. I'm hoping because I don't want to worry
about them. How do I do it? The best way in this situation is to slash his throat. We

(33:09):
don't want him to wake up and start kicking up a fuss with this throat cut. He won't be
saying much. He'll make a weird girdling noise as he tries to breathe. He'll bleed out in
a few minutes. Your job should you decide to accept it. I've wanted to say that ever
since I saw mission impossible. Poor looked at him like you would look at a dog who just
threw up on a carpet. What said Dolly? That's just weird. You're just the you're using apocalypse

(33:36):
as an excuse to say your favorite lines from movies. It's a hobby. I'm trying to get all
my favorites in before I die. Like I said, weird. Dolly looked hurt. It's not weird. It's
just my jam. Don't you have a jam? I've been a little busy getting kidnapped, beaten,
starved and abused by a bunch of psychos. Didn't have a I didn't it didn't leave a lot of time

(33:58):
for recreational pursuits. It's not weird. Dolly say quietly is weird. Is not. Can we
back? Can we get back to the reason why we're here? Dolly got excited. I was surprised for
you. For me, you shouldn't have. He reached under his dress and pulled out a vicious looking
double edged knife. This is a replica of what's known as a V 42 fighting knife. It was designed

(34:22):
to kill people during World War Two. There was a special forces group known as the black
devils who were a highly trained group of killers who used it behind enemy lines. I
was told that they even had the a little sign they would leave on the bodies of their victims
that said the worst is yet to come. I like that story so much that I had a bunch of those
signs made up. I still have a few left. He reached in his pocket and pulled out one of

(34:46):
the notes. This is a few to put on the leader after he's dead. You sure you want to give
me this? She said holding up the knife. I have another one. The one I have I got from
my father who got it from his father who was a member of the black devils. Quite a lineage
she said. It's the only family heirloom I have left. When we go in there, I want you
to walk heel to toe like this. He stepped forward onto his heel and then rolled his foot forward.

(35:12):
It's easier to walk quietly that way. She tried a few steps like that. Exactly like
that. You ready? I am. They began to move forward toward the group on the ground, stepping
over the bodies of the sleeping men. Poor moved quietly toward the middle of the men. Dolly
stayed on the periphery to keep watch. She's right at the man who would soon feel the blade

(35:34):
of her knife. She grunts beside him and leaned over and blew in his ear. What are you doing?
asked Dolly in a loud whisper. Poor didn't look at him and blew again. He opened his
eyes. She smiled at him and said, Do you remember me? He looked shocked. She drew the knife across
his throat and said, That's for all of us. She didn't move and watched as the blood came

(35:55):
gushing out. Dolly came in quickly and grabbed her arm. We got to go. She stood slowly and
as Dolly pulled her back, she stepped on one of the men. He woke up. What the fuck? Dolly
kicked him in the face and he went back to sleep. Come on. He said she was remarkable.
She was remarkably calm as she allowed herself to be let out of the camp. When he got back

(36:17):
to where they had hidden, Dolly began to run. You got a few hundred yards away and she stopped.
Shit. She said, What are you doing? I forgot to put the sign on him. Would you like to
go back? He said sarcastically. She looked back towards the camp and said, Now I'll do
it next time. Dolly grabbed her by the shoulders and looked deep into her eyes. They were deep
and dark and it felt to him like he was staring into a black hole. He smiled. You're one of

(36:42):
us. She smiled back. So that's all I have for you this week as far as the show goes.
And I appreciate everybody from for tuning in. I hope you enjoyed it and you'll return
again to talk more about the world we live in. Please like, subscribe, reply, share the

(37:03):
videos or audio podcast however you watch and listen. The goal here is to resist the
people who want to take our freedoms away from us. I appreciate everyone around the
world no matter who or where you are. Together, using independent media like this, we can
resist the authoritarian oligarchs in the West and everywhere else for that matter.

(37:23):
As I say goodbye this week, I wish to leave you with this Irish blessing as we try to
survive another week of mayhem. May we finally find peace and contentment we seek despite
the whirlwinds of chaos brewing all around us. Schlange foil.
