Well folks, it's time for the time to come clean with our sentiment and concerns surrounding the upcoming 2024 election. The highly probable ripple effects are very intense (like circuses and camping combined) so let's chat about them. What's at stake here? An entire idea. An idea that this nation was born from. An idea under assault from globalists who never appreciated nor understood the American spirit. So let's do what we can and look to our communities to represent these concerns in less than two weeks at the polls.

It's not very often you get the opportunity to listen to your prescribed enemy articulate their motivations for invading a neighboring country in great detail. In the interest of being exposed to alternative opinions and not just focusing on what we believe to be right, the team decided to give the Tucker/Putin interview a good swing.

While we are all familiar with some of the more recent US interventions in the Middle East and all the fall out associated with those failures, the US Government has attempted to subvert, destroy and manipulate the political systems of other countries for a long time.

On this episode the team dives in to review an organization heard in the news quite a bit these days; Wagner Group. A Russian private military contracting firm, Wagner has been on our radar for several years, popping up all over the globe in places like Mali, Libya and Syria. Now they find themselves holding sections of Russian lines in Ukraine as well as conducting bold offensives utilizing Russian convicts, regular guys and veterans recruited at one of their 40 recruiting stations. With deep ties to the Kremlin and aspirations for power, their founder is someone who will undoubtedly shape the future of Russia.

Just over one year after the fall of Kabul, the team sits down with a guest to bring you previously untold stories capturing the chaotic withdrawal of NATO forces from Afghanistan. Combining the team's experiences operating in the same area years prior with the firsthand accounts of the near apocalyptic vibe gripping HKIA, we are able to get a solid grasp on just how nutty the situation was and just how much leadership failed us and our Afghan partners deserving of evacuation. And here we are over a year later with no formal accountability after American and Afghan leaders squandered and tarnished over 20 years of effort and loss. But as the team examines on this episode, it was not all for nothing. Millions of Afghans were given the opportunity to live free of fear and tyrannical zealots.

Throughout history every great alliance has been tested. Some have broken, while others have flourished, finding the true meaning in partnership.

Tune into this episode to learn a bit more about the most recent ruling made by an enforcement body that is also modifying definitions to establish laws...that they enforce, which produce data that they then use to appropriate more tax payer dollars for their agency.

This time it took place in a relatively obscure country to most folks, yet Kazakhstan bears a pivotal role in the central Asian region. This event not only highlighted that, but it also provided a showcase for Russia's ability to rapidly deploy "peace keepers" and retain the status of a regional powerhouse.

Well folks, we have truly done it this time. Very similarly to how we did it in 1975, as if the wars in Afghanistan and Vietnam didn't have enough similarities. On this episode, 3 members of our team who have deployed to Afghanistan in multiple capacities, bringing a vast amount of experience to the table, sit down and discuss the withdrawal. Messy, cold and arrogant while being simultaneously weak, it would seem our political elite have taken their personalities and produced our foreign policy in their self image.
