I had an unusual start to the show after oversleeping the morning after my birthday, but once we got rolling, the conversation turned into a wide-ranging and revealing discussion about the state of the country. We talked through a disturbing firsthand account of an ICE detention in New Mexico, the growing surveillance state through Flock cameras and Palantir-style data systems, and the way ordinary people can be pulled into administrative and legal traps even when they believe they have done nothing wrong. The callers also raised concerns about AI-driven policing, digital tracking, and how quickly technology is being used against the public rather than for them.From there, we moved into the bigger picture: the Middle East, the risk of escalation with Iran, the financial pressures behind policy, and the endless layers of fraud and coercion built into modern government. We also spent time on tax resistance strategies, Dave Champion’s work, jury and citizenship arguments, and Jeffrey Tucker’s recent Epoch Times piece on whether Americans are citizens or subjects. For all the heaviness of the topics, there was still room for laughter, birthday wishes, and reminders that our strength is in staying informed, staying connected, and continuing to seek freedom together.Global Voice Radio: http://radio.globalvoiceradio.netEuro Folk Radio: https://eurofolkradio.com/Stew Peters Network (Rumble): https://rumble.com/StewPetersFlock Safety: https://www.flocksafety.com/Palantir: https://www.palantir.com/about/TeamViewer: https://www.teamviewer.com/en-us/global/company/about-teamviewer/magicJack: https://www.magicjack.com/Dr. Reality (Dave Champion): https://drreality.news/Income Tax: Shattering the Myths by Dave Champion: https://drreality.news/product/income-tax-shattering-the-myths/The Epoch Times article “Are We Subjects or Citizens?” by Jeffrey A.
