Intel Update - Feb 15 - (Probably) Unnecessary Deep Dives

Hello again everyone and welcome back to the underground this is the Intel update for February 9th through the 15th 2025 so let's get right to it this week I thought I would take the opportunity to focus a little bit more get a little bit a little bit deeper into the Weeds on some of the topics that I covered this week in The Wire because there have been a couple of of things that may seem to be just like a basic news story. But I think are maybe a little bit more important than just that so let's start things off by diving into the incident that occurred in Lincoln Heights Ohio a few days ago now this is a very very inflammatory topic. But I think that it despite all of the potential offenses people might have I think it's worth talking about because this is a very very important thing to remember. Moving forward it's not just about this one specific area I think that just bottom line up front this uh incident may occur in many many other areas as it has occurred in many other areas before and I think that this could very well be a very big point for conflagration in some areas so it's worth talking about some of these things right now uh and when we get to the key takeaways maybe you'll understand why so for those who maybe have not heard about what happened in Lincoln Heights Ohio a few days ago a group of protesters and I say that word protesters in heavy air quotes uh because I think there's a little bit more to the story than just that either way a group of protesters uh who are self-described or at least self- portrayed as being either neo-nazis or national socialists of some kind either way a bunch of guys wearing black and uh carrying swastika Flags these guys uh protested or demonstrated I guess is probably the more accurate term because they're not specifically opposing a specific policy I think it's more of a demonstration we may more doctrinally we may call this a a power projection uh operation a way of projecting influence uh into a new area so bunch of these guys got together and decided that they wanted to go to one of the most ethnically black areas of Northern Cincinnati and demonstrate now as one might imagine this did not go over very well at all I do not know where they parked or where they were dropped off I don't know very much about the initial incident because obviously this demonstration operation was not announced ahead of time either way these guys were observed walking down the sidewalks uh through or adjacent to this area and their mission which has become quite popular in these sorts of circles their goal was to put up signs and uh like zip tie or tape Flags or whatever to the overpass to the to the fence uh on the over pass so that people traveling by on the interstate below would see their demonstration materials once again this has become kind of a common thing now I do want to issue a brief correction because at the time of this protest occurring the initial media that came out the photographs of the people who were taking pictures of these guys on the sidewalk they were unarmed so the people that I saw the initial sourcing that came out the primary sourcing right the on the ground firsthand account seeing these guys none of them had Firearms. However a few days after this uh after this initial protest action and the subsequent uh problems this caused I I did see you can obviously very clearly see pictures of these guys and some of them were armed I don't know if they were all armed. But some of them were open carrying pistols and things like that I do want to make that very very clear right up front because this kind of matters in just a moment. But anyway just for again for those of you who don't know this is not illegal no no crime was committed by these protesters as far as I can tell of course I'm not an attorney or anything. But these guys were on the sidewalk they were not impeding traffic You know despite what their ideology is and the message they were trying to convey it's not illegal at least not yet so that's pretty much how that went uh they protested or demonstrated or whatever they were trying to do put their signs up. And then they immediately left the area rather quickly as you might imagine because the nearby housing projects of hundreds if not thousands of of people responded in force now here's where things get a little bit interesting uh because from what I can tell and again I maybe somebody has some better sourcing out there than me. But I scoured social media and I could not find a single instance of these guys walking through the projects with their Flags I they looked to me like they were just on the freeway uh on the side sidewalks right there so they didn't really go into the the uh you know heavily entrenched project housing project areas. However that didn't seem to matter much uh because of course as many of you have have already seen the projects responded in kind and brought out a few 100 people military age males women children all armed with very interesting weapons and they essentially created checkpoints so as I'm showing you here on the map of the area they created at least one checkpoint right here at the corner of Mangum drive and Dorothy C or Vision Way essentially this this large area here and they also had a few people stationed up on the freeway across the freeway uh I have put pucks on the map for where I have video clips or images that went viral uh because of this so for a couple of days after that initial show of force initial demonstration power projection whatever doctrinal term you want to use these dudes were hanging out here at this intersection with a lot of guns and here is where things crossed that magic red line into illegal land uh just like the initial protesters right just like the initial demonstrators walking around open carrying in Ohio is legal as far as I know um it's it's legal there. However what is not legal is setting up a checkpoint and telling people to roll down their Windows to check who's inside a vehicle and then that person with the gun decides whether or not you can use a public road or not this is a very very big distinction standing on a sidewalk waving a flag no matter how interesting the flag may be uh and how inflammatory it may be it's still not illegal as far as I know in this country uh to do that it is. However illegal to stop people at gunpoint and demand that only people with a certain ideology or in many cases a certain skin color can proceed on a public road now this becomes a problem because not only is that illegal. But also look at where this is located you can very clearly see this is a major highway this is a major thoroughfare here and this is not inside their Community this is a public road this is not a private road this is a major thoroughfare this is a major industrial center here right this is not just some back road that these people have decided to set up checkpoints on this is a big area so that's kind of where things stand now from my limited research on this uh on social media it looks to me like this whole thing's kind of over um as soon as the the initial demonstrators left and tempers got inflamed it's calmed down over the past few days plus weather conditions have not been super great for standing out in the in the weather with uh with a rifle. Anyway once again uh for those of you who live in Ohio and live near Cincinnati and you know of this area I know I'm preaching to the choir on this you guys know this is not surprising in the slightest this has happened before uh I'm fairly certain. Anyway I just thought it to be very very interesting because of some of the key takeaways that that I brought from this incident which is why I wanted to talk about a little bit more so why is this worth talking about this seems like it's a one andone kind of you know nothing bad happened thankfully no nobody got shot um. Even though the risk of that is still fairly High just on a regular day but why is this worth talking about a little bit more than just some you know inflammatory protest so the first takeaway that I wanted to mention is something that we obviously know which is that there is a multi-tier justice system that is at play with with things like this and it's most palpable it's most observable like many things in life when you go to the extremes of a situation you find that you identify some of the problems that you may not have noticed in day-to-day life. But as shocking as it may be for for some it will not be surprising to many others who have been a victim of this multi-tier justice system over the years this is very patently clear I think it's very obvious and I think that this is one of the issues that was on the ballot uh this past election. However I did want to remind everyone that just because a national change of policy a national regime change has occurred and you know that there's been a lot of winning quote unquote winning over the past 3 weeks or so this does not mean that the situation will change overnight in many many areas obviously no law enforcement group in the country is going to to tackle this issue they're going to call this basically just Hood Justice and just kind of move on from there unless somebody gets hurt Andor killed in which case the response is going to be retroactive right well let's see what we can do about this after the fact they're not going to take down a hood checkpoint they're just not going to do that seeing what we learned from the Chaz and chop autonomous zones or you know occupation zones in few major cities around the country and seeing how that all worked out they're just not going to directly go after this sort of thing it's not a it's not a realistic expectation it may be a fair expectation you know. But it's not going it's not a realistic expectation so the first thing is that this is a reminder that you can only get away with this kind of behavior if you are a protected group in society so thing one point two is that a lawful protest despite it technically being legal doesn't mean it's smart these guys who initially started this thing they knew what they were doing they knew they were going to go in there and they were going to poke and prod and they were going to agitate and they were probably trying to get this response itself uh and they got it so is that a genuine method of swaying people to your side of no generally speaking making people angry isn't going to really do a whole lot uh unless the goal was just pure power projection just to dominate and things like that that could just have been the goal and I don't know I don't know if they succeeded at that or not either way just because a person does a protest does not necessarily mean that it's going to be risk-free or even a good idea so this is something to remember once again a lawful protest is a lawful protest. However there are trade-offs right so this brought risk to the people around this area if if you had you know had a flat tire on that overpass when these guys walked up with their flags and the ghetto starts getting little the Hornets Nest gets kicked I would be really really really upset if I was there trying to change my tire or having some kind of you know car problem or something you know and I'm now in the middle of something that I didn't want to be in the middle love again that's a what if thing. But it's just something to to keep in mind right the the risks that these kinds of things bring thirdly and uh second most importantly I think this has become a very big problem in the you know gun Community the gun world and I don't have a solution for it. But I do want I feel like this this statement of fact needs to be stated and it needs to be stated more often than it is being stated by 2A influencers and this is that seeing a person displaying a firearm in public does not automatically mean friend it does not not everyone who has a gun is a second amendment Advocate spoiler alert some people buy firearms legally to commit crimes with them some people buy firearms to hurt people with them I know this may seem to be a surprising thing for the Second Amendment Community who seems to take the attitude that until the bullet clears the end of the barrel no crime has been committed this is not necessarily true and it's certainly not true in this case what were these people doing these people were pulling guns on people and saying you shall not pass they were saying you cannot go down this public Street this public Highway major public Highway unless you participated in our particular brand of ideology okay and if we go a step further pulling a gun on somebody and saying you can't go through this checkpoint on this public street because you have the wrong skin color hard no that is very very illegal Okay so so they're already committing a crime these people are not peacefully demonstrating if they had not set up the checkpoints and they had just stood on the sidewalk with guns there would be no crime being committed. But the Second Amendment Community is so desperate to push something which I'll get to in a moment that they immediately see gun friend and that's a huge problem and this leads to the fourth and final point which I think is the most important thing there is to remember today which is why I wanted to talk about this is is that there are those in the Second Amendment community that do not understand point three and they will and have openly stated that they will arm and train the people who openly state that they want to harm you okay once again I I know that this sounds crazy once I put it like this. But there are a lot of people out there especially a lot of companies a lot of people who write Books A lot of people who are engaged very heavily in the Second Amendment community and things like that that you look at their reaction to these these kinds of incidents and it's not a very positive look I think that because the Second Amendment is such a strong powerful thing in the conservative um political realm in the United States for some people that second amendment is the most important thing in life it's just the most important thing for them it trumps everything the Second Amendment is more important than their religion their their belief system the Second Amendment is their core identity and unfortunately it is there's a warped understanding of it which again is a debate for another day. But I just want people to take note take note of the 2A influencers the companies especially and see what they're doing so I say all of that because I have seen a lot of 2A influencers a lot of people who teach courses pay attention teach courses on these kinds of topics and I really want to make people aware that you know getting education in the Second Amendment Community is good learning how to use your tools is good okay building skills is good. But you also have to remember that you may be giving your money to a company that has openly stated that they're going to Aid and abet insurgents and terrorists on us soil because that's exactly what's Happening Here people who come out who have companies that say ah this is a great thing this is a good thing they ignore the fact that one this is not Community defense okay you don't get to call it a community when it's a public resource right these people are guarding an an onramp off-ramp area okay this is not Community defense this is terrain denial okay let's crack open those books that people claim to read and write so much uh terrain denial is a huge problem Force projection is a huge problem this is not Community defense this is not a peaceful protest this is a crime. And so many companies came out and said good for these guys because they saw black guys with guns and they to wanted to take an opportunity to not appear to be racist and that's exactly what happened not realizing that these guys are openly committing crimes they're checking vehicles and saying you can't come into you can't drive on this road you can't go through our you know checkpoint you know do you see where this might be a problem so look at the companies who are offering training to train these guys to be better okay I don't want to get too far into the weeds with this I know we've got a lot more to talk about today. But I did want to just make everyone aware to be careful be careful who you're giving your money to because you may show up to a training course and it may be all fine and dandy Until you realize that these people also support and they're going to use your money they're going to use your money to train the people who openly say they want to hurt you and I think I'll just leave it at that I know this is a very inflammatory topic there's going to be a lot of tempers flaring on this one. But I did want to to make that a little bit more clear because this is not something that we can just sweep under the rug and pretend never happened no this is going to happen a lot more often the south africanization of the United States is already well underway and this is something that is going to be hard for any national regime change to to solve and because of that we've still got these local mostly community- based problems like this so I thought it was was worth explaining a little bit more in depth so let's move out to the southwest and briefly talk about the uh situation on the border pretty much status quo I'm still personally developing a lot of the things we may need to uh be aware of down there along the border. But one of the more geopolitical concerns that has arisen over the past few days is Mexico uh the president of Mexico clar a shine bomb deciding to threaten the United States with lawsuits because the United States wants to designate cartels as a terrorist or as terrorist organizations I I still don't know how that's going to to work out the United States has already decided to do this uh. However if you look at the actual paperwork that Donald Trump himself has signed it's not super clear as to how it's going to work out you can you can obviously take it back uh so the president of Mexico is is acting as if this has not come into effect just yet dubious as to whether or not that's the case. But either way the president of Mexico is essentially stated and I want to be very careful to not strawman U the Mexican government's position here they do a fine job of doing that on their own. But from my understanding the Mexican government's position is well if you designate these cartels as terrorist organizations well what we're going to have to do in response is uh use the United Nations programs that we get funding through and go after uh use these laws that we have already written in the United Nations as written for us uh to go after say gun companies so it's essentially from what I understand Mexico is saying hey you want to designate our cartels as terrorist groups we're going to have to go after the companies that made the guns that the cartels are using we have seen this argument in the United States of over the past few years and it's a it is a it is a fairly bold argument with lots of audacity to bring in illegal realm. However that's Mexico's position as far as I understand now the reason that I wanted to mention this is is because nearly 100% of Mexico's gun control uh efforts within Mexico come from the United Nations the United Nations tells Mexico what to do with regards to gun control very clearly this has this statement is backed up by uh government accountability office or GAO reports over the past few years which was essentially for those of you who have not heard of the GAO the government accountability office was was Doge before Doge wasn't very good. But still it's an agency that does exist and did write a lot of reports in which they found that yeah basically the United Nations is controlling Mexico's gun policy Well turns out that very long story short us Aid was funding the United Nations gun control efforts and which was in turn funding Mexico so you have this circle where the taxpayer funds usaid the American taxpayer funds usaid usaid gives money to the United Nations the United Nations gives money to Mexico to sue the United States so this has become a huge problem over the past few weeks as it has become very clear that the United States government is funding lawsuits against the United States government from other nations so again a continuation of the very interesting times we live in. But I didn't want to mention it because I thought it was kind of interesting so moving out to another very very interesting uh incident this was the terror attack or grenade attack that occurred in the French city or town of groby a few days ago once again you guys can read the details in The Wire if you want. But the short version is that somebody went up to a storefront in the town of gryl threw a hand grenade through the window and injured a lot of people casualty count so far is looks like it's a couple of dozen people wounded I don't know if anybody's uh if there are any fatalities just yet. But when I was looking into this I I wanted to kind of briefly take you through the investigative process that I went through as you know halfhazard as it was I was casually interested in this because of my own experiences which I'll get to in just a moment so let's dive into this this case and let's see if we can try to figure out what actually happened here so we hear about something occurring on social media in this case a a grenade being thrown into a bar and what's the first step we want to do well we want to find out where it is right so we hop ourselves onto whatever mapping service and we try to figure out can we nail down where this this attack took place and in the hours after the attack a word or a term kept coming up called in French and please forgive my pronunciation. But a lot of French reporters were calling this a bar associative now this is where my own personal bias comes in or you might call it instead of bias experience my uh Spidey senses started tingling because I had heard this term before now for those of you who do not know what a bar associati is in English it's Associates cafe or associative cafe or associative bar or something like that now what what is this kind of establishment because when I hopped into Google Maps to initially search for bars in gryl to kind of figure out which street this occurred on there there weren't any in this area this explosion took place in the old Olympic Village uh there the Olympics was held in groby I think in the 60s 63 or 64 or something like that and the old Olympic Village has become well we'll talk about that in a moment either way there weren't any bars no no um you know alcoholic serving venues anywhere near here so indicator number one so I did a little bit of research and of course all all of my French brothers and sisters out there maybe know immediately where I'm going with this. But a bar associa an associative cafe or Associates Cafe is more akin to what you might call a lounge more along the lines of uh a club I guess as you could say it in English essentially it's not a bar they allegedly do not serve alcohol at this venue this is one of those things in French culture which is become very very popular and we and we'll get to to why that is in just a moment so why are we talking about this why why are we talking about bar Atif why are we talking about my weird Spidey senses what what's going on here like why is this such a an important thing that that I find to be personally very interesting well we'll get to that in a moment let's first get to the geolocation of evidence at the scene again First Step figure out where it happened and uh one of the first thing that you things that you try to do is take the images off of social media and what we do what we call geolocation geolocate them right geoguesser fans will will be very very good at this I am not not very good at this. But essentially we're trying to figure out where images were taken or what you know where the subjects of an image were so this is my very rudimentary uh geolocation of the incident this is a photograph that was taken by either a firefighter or a local responder at the scene and on the left and on the right is Google Street View so as we can see I was able to geolocate where this image was taken and once again if we uh go back to the overall map here I found uh where the these victims were located here in the purple on uh the northeastern corner of this building here on R Claude kogan Claud kogan street right. But as we can see this does not jive with the images of the grenade blast the grenade blast images also on social media showed a completely different place one of these establishments has a storefront on the opposite side of the building here so maybe you can start to piece together why I'm interested in this. First of all there's no street view of this particular establishment there are no restaurants there are no venues there are no shops or stores or anything anywhere near this location at least according to Google Maps and this looks very clearly like a business storefront this looks like a commercial downtown business area well this plays into why I'm interested Now isn't it so maybe we can start putting together what actually happened here and why these photographs don't add up or match up what I personally think happened and this is a little bit of a speculation. But what I personally think happened is a grenade was thrown thrown into an establishment on the inner Courtyard here where there is no vehicle access so you're not going to get Google Street View it's only foot mobile so someone threw a grenade into the inner Courtyard here somewhere and these survivors fled through the establishment out the back door where we get the uh the purple picture here now this is kind of interesting to me because like I said there aren't any businesses here uh at least according to the French authorities and Google Street View and Yelp and all these you know places that track commercial venues so what in the Sam Hill is this place like what is going on here it looks like a commercial venue. But there's nothing listed so so let's go back to the very beginning where I said that I had a little bit of Spidey senses with regards to Bar associate this is a screenshot from Google Maps that shows business affiliations or business licenses in the area and right here right through the building where the survivors of the grenade blast fled through is and an internet cafe now internet cafes for those of you who may be watching who are military targeting guys or dis some time in the Middle East you guys know immediately where I'm going with this so let me just share a little bit of this background knowledge so in the Middle East uh obviously one of the things that is pervasive to the third world is a lack of Internet access and lack of electricity especially going back to the ' 80s and90s a lot of the Middle East uh is technically the third world and in the third world you you tend to not have super super reliable access to Communications so what did they do well they set up these things called internet cafes now again we've had this idea here in the United States before right when the internet was kind of becoming a thing you know '90s 2000s kind of things it's like a coffee shop with desktop computers in it kind of thing you know internet cafe it's not that uncommon we have those here even to this day there's a difference. Though in the Middle East they didn't ever really get rid of that cultural thing so a lot of people who grew up in the Middle East in the ' 80s 90s 2000s. Even though everyone in the Middle East nowadays has a smartphone they really kind of stuck with the cultural thing of internet cafes being a huge thing so again why does this matter well uh let me introduce you to a gentleman by the name of Osama bin Laden yes during the 1980s early 90s a lot of Middle Eastern insurgents took advantage of the internet cafe to upload their ideology to the world many a copy of inspire al-qaeda's sort of like Time Magazine al-qaeda's version of Time Magazine many a copy of these types of training materials was exchanged at internet cafes uh so over the years in the ' 80s '90s early 2000s in the Middle East internet cafes became synonymous with things like headquarters uh terrorist headquarters Insurgent uh Communications hubs a lot of IP addresses traced back to of of you know distributed terroristic kind of content Trace back to uh internet cafes so that it's harder to trace who was actually there at a certain time right so let's bring this back to France why is why is France involved in all of this well uh turns out France is very very very uh much in favor of importing much of the Middle Eastern world into France particularly in groby so if you were to zoom out or just take a little trip around uh Google Street View Lane you can look around the area and tell that the old Olympic Village in groby is a very heavily Islamic migrant dominated area maybe not the whole Olympic Village. But definitely this area is very heavily Islamic uh very heavily um you know Middle Eastern culture and it turns out that going way back to the 80s and 90s when you have a huge Muslim diaspora in a specific area what do they do you'll start seeing internet cafes pop up because. Even if they have a smartphone they use the internet cafe as kind of a way of having these community centers again this is my personal bias or experience you can decide. But my eyewitness testimony is that when I was doing targeting in Syria Iraq uh during the the operation inherent resolve Mission I would see an awful lot of intelligence gathered from places like internet cafes or community centers is what they were a lot of times called and this is because a lot of IP addresses would of of things would Trace back to these places they're Community hubs where people meet and exchange information USB drives are handed off cell phones are plugged in in this place. And so on and so forth it it's sort of like finding you know an Italian Pizzeria in a you know New York City that doesn't actually sell pizza it just becomes kind of obvious that it's a front for something you may not be able to tell what it is. But it's a definitely a front so when I looked into this sort of grenade blast a lot of people looked into this incident and said okay well it's it's just a terrorist attack or something like that this has become tragically common in France and throughout Europe and even in the United States uh grenade attacks are way more common in Europe than they are in the United States obviously uh. But it's still there's still not that much to it well I looked into this and the more I kept digging the more confused I kept getting and eventually the less confused I I got so what is going on at this at this location I don't know. But I can tell you it's not just a terror attack my suspicion pure speculation and this is also backed up by the French authorities pure speculation is this was maybe a little bit of a Turf War maybe a little bit of a uh deliberate targeting between various Insurgent groups who are upset that they uh have competition for various Insurgent activities in an area the French government clearly thinks this may be the case because they're not investigating this as a terror attack they're investigating this as an organized crime incident so what's the point of me talking about this specific area or this specific incident a lot in Greater detail well I think that we're get I'm getting a lot of indications and warnings that this isn't just a simple terror attack I think that this entire area is probably a hot bed for uh everything from Human Trafficking to drug trafficking to everything in between right terrorism if you want to call it that whatever you want to whatever you want to say I think that this is a very big area for that we must remember that none of these businesses are listed on Google Maps none of these businesses are listed anywhere these are residential houses these are residential apartment buildings that the ground floor of which has been knocked out and uh in a lot of cases and refurbished and retrofit all without licenses all without the French government saying that this can occur other than just them kind of ignoring it and they've built essentially an entire Society here and this is the kind of thing that tends to pop up you've got an Associates an associative bar here that is located at the exact same place where a or in the same vicinity of a uh an internet cafe being listed now I personally think they're the same business I think they're the same place. But you see how this is really really confusing uh this is why you haven't seen a lot of French authorities you can Google this story yourself and even the French media don't really know what to do with this they don't really know what to say because what they're doing the journalistic thing they're not doing the Intel thing they're doing the journalistic thing where they try to find out okay where did the blast occur and they're you can see them in the way that they're writing it they don't have details so they just be they just speak in generalities and you can see they don't know what's going on here. But what I think is going on here is this is probably an illegal business that got attacked by in some kind of turf war or something like that with a grenade it was was located very close to a internet cafe. Which means probably very close to some kind of command element some kind of mover or Shaker some powerful person uh who needs a Comm Center who needs a Communications Hub a C2 node command and control node and I think that's why this attack occurred here I don't think it was a random act of violence I think it was very targeted because other Islamic probably Islamic based groups knew that this is a very important building this is a very important place. But because a journalist don't know this history of internet cafes and associative bars and things like that in France the the only time the French people hear about these bar associes is when they get caught running illegal cigarettes without paying taxes or or uh they they get caught up running like things like that or like a hookah bar which is like a front for something they don't look into it from an Insurgent perspective so again my mind going there immediately is is definitely a bias because this is my work history and it's I find it to be very very interesting that this is now occurring in France so again I know probably way more information than a lot of you were expecting on this uh I don't know how many of you will find it interesting. But I I certainly found it to be absolutely fascinating and uh if not if not rather unfortunate that these kinds of things are now happening uh in France um very sad to see. But that's pretty much all I have uh on this I I'm going to do a little bit more digging and see if I can figure out who who's the Mover and Shaker in this area I've already identified a few names. But I'm not confident enough uh in what I've got so far but I did want to just kind of share this and show that it's not as simple as you might imagine and some of the investigative processes that you have to go through to kind of get to the bottom of what's going on here and in many cases you can't get to the bottom of something. But you can get to a point to where you realize something shady is going on here and that's kind of where I'm at with this so that's pretty much all I have uh for now let's talk about some of the ghostnet reports again very good week for ghostnet a lot of you out there testing I saw a few of you mention I didn't get screenshots of it. But I saw a few of you mention uh the mesh tastic options I I think a few of you out there are using the the mesh tastic uh line of sight only Channel node that I've set up in in the ghost net plan I will have more on this at some point and how to get all that set up. But I think that's kind of interesting I think that's a pretty good thing I have not heard anybody use uh the ghost the the ghost net mesh tastic channel in my area. But then again I'm also kind of in a black hole for communicating with mesh tastic uh sometimes so thought it was very interesting that other people are getting some use out of it so um thank you guys for that and and I'm I'm I'm hoping that it helps. But other than that yeah just standard uh kind of news reports very helpful for a lot of people out there I know that a lot of people are listen only and receive only so just be mindful that you know if you're pushing a news report out or a local story or something like that that you think that may need to be covered a little bit more and it's in your area feel free to to to talk about it because I'm sure there are a lot of people it's it would be impossible to determine how many people out there are listening to to certain uh Transmissions that are being made so it's both good and bad. But when it comes to the exchange of news it's just something to keep in mind so that's pretty much all I have for today uh here are the sources as usual thank you guys all for sticking with me with uh some of these more uh Rabbit Hole kind of conversations and uh thank you for bearing with me as I get down in the weeds with some of these things. But all of this doesn't really really matter like a lot not not really it's more of a uh case of being aware that you can get down in the weeds uh with some of these incidents and I think that it may help to do so just so that you can have a better framework for understanding other things that pop up in Du time so thank you guys all for watching thank you for all of your support I think I'll cut it there for today. And so thank you once again and I will see you next time and as always fight in the shade.
