I call B.S. the gentleman never stated what specifically he was told by any agency. Barney Fife never stated where he obtained this information. Was it a large alphabet agency or Mudpuddle P.D.? Agencies that know seldom let this kind of information leak. Sounds like his ratings were dropping online.

Are you talking about Pastor Joe Fox? Because he’s not like that at all and he’s a member here.

If you actually knew his background, and had a HINT of what his training has been, you would understand why most of us just nodded, said "THANKS" and moved on into the next functional phase.

Failing to have the background data, consider the rest of our reactions as a "CLUE".

Then ignore his info but I am willing to bet nearly all of us in this board are taking it seriously and making changes /improvements to our games. I know I have.

I waited tables in an inclusive establishment. Two guys were speaking in their language. I glanced at something funny a kid was doing in the next booth and chuckled.

My customers got really upset. Apparently they had just said something funny, and I laughed. One of them accused me of spying on them. They got up and left. I had my husband come to watch me walk to my car that night after work.

They weren't speaking a Latin-based language.

WYLARRY: The key here is to know WHICH 12 or 14. It won't be THAT obvious as looking for the BIG stations, either.

Further, Deponent sayeth not.

It doesn't take much "looking" in anything other than data. The data needed to do any and all of that kind of attack has been made OSINT for a decade or more, thanks to DC. For starters, just look at some of these maps:
https: //catalog.data.gov/dataset/electric-power-transmission-lines
https: //catalog.data.gov/dataset/electric-substations
https: //resilience.climate.gov/datasets/fedmaps::u-s-electric-power-transmission-lines/about
https: //www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=d4090758322c4d32a4cd002ffaa0aa12
https: //hifld-geoplatform.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/bd24d1a282c54428b024988d32578e59_0/explore?location=38.886548%2C-77.424065%2C11.00

Then you have fully OSINT sources as well:
https: //openinframap.org/#6.37/38.829/-76.739
https: //www.infrapedia.com/

Here is another scary thought:

DANG!!
My info came from another direction!

I've got the "Abandoned" RR map on the phone, but THAT "Open Railways map gives rise to all KINDS of thoughts.

Just consider this contrarian point of view. Be patient and humor this never-was. :)

We have watched hundreds of Hezbollah and Hamas members get smoked.

Nothing but saber rattlin' from the Persians.

We are led to believe all these domestic cells have the collective restraint to sit on their hands.


Nicely said.

One thing that is obvious are all the suggestions of what soft targets are out there that the presumed tango cells would target, and on what day, etc. Everything short of ice cream trucks have been mentioned as more than possible, nay even likely, targets.

What is not obvious is that people are failing to think like the presumed tangos would. You just stated the unobvious. Sincere kudos. They do not think as we do and most people forget that.

Congress went on an extended vacation and returned three weeks before the fiscal 2025 funding bills were due for October 1.

They quickly passed a continuing resolution to punt the issues until December 20, after the election. The government will stay open.

They left last Friday and will not be in session at any time in the month of October.

The first subsequent working day for Congress is Monday, November 3, the day before the scheduled election.

Shutting down air traffic like they did on 9/11 would conveniently keep them out of DC on election day.

That should be factored into your timing. Almost all of them travel by air and maybe a few by commuter train.

They won't lead with enough time for workarounds.

That's the timing. I suck at timing, but there it is.

Joe has always seemed to me - whether live or Memorex - to speak from the heart. Plus, he's had decades of experience seeing crazy things happen before he bailed out into civilian life.

I'd judge when he does something this unusual that it's not online ratings numbers because I doubt he does much of that kind of trolling. He specifically cut this loose out from behind his Patreon paywall and I appreciate his sincerity.

O good lawd, must we devolve this thread into something so off course that any nuggets of value are lost amongst the innane chatter and white noise???

You're certainly welcome to your opinion, IDA, but anyone with a pulse who's paying the least lil bit of attention knows the intel is good, and that we've been passing out the same info for the better part of a year now from all sorts of directions- so if your discernment is so lacking that you find yourself unaware, run, don't walk, to the nearest exit, and buy yourself a better set of assessment skills. The lives you save doing so might be your own. And to be clear, we're at the stage in the journy where speaking of saving lives is not hyperboyle.

Just saw that the fryeburg fair here in Maine will be using metal detectors for the first time this year to prevent folks from bringing in large knives and guns

I have no idea if it will be a false flag operation committed by the criminals in DC or the Chinese, Iranians, Russians, North Koreans, or someone else, but something is in the works. If the criminals in DC are really worried about losing the election they will do something to prevent Trump from taking the oath of President. There are something like only 13 critical substations that control the flow of electricity all over the country. Taking out 9 of them by flying drones with bombs into the transformers will shutdown the entire grid. No one will know who did it. You can sit in your house 50 miles away and fly a drone into the substation. How will anyone know who did it? If the grid was taken down in January. Where I live most people will be dead within a month if not sooner by freezing to death. Also no water and food. Something is going to happen.
Texas has its own separate grid, from what I've read. If true, taking out 9 in other parts of the country would have no effect upon their grid.

Anyway, I forgot that I came to post I've spent time in some 40-50k venues the last few days, here in fly over country, and it was my impression that security was a wee bit more alert than usual. Not just the obvious/uniformed folk, but all the rest of the eyes in the crowd.

For many reasons, I trust my discernment implicitly, and know that there were even eyes on me at times. Admittedly, it's second nature to do my own 'security assessments' of venues, and one of our party was unable to attend due to a last minute ER trip, so my analysis and our distress and phone patterns may have given valid reasons for us to be duly noted, even if the alert status hadn't been notched up.

We here in fly over country are paying specific attention to homecoming/harvest events at the schools, and to Halloween.

For those who doubt that there are teams conus, i would remind you that we've seen the lone wolf attacks conus in the last 12 months, and many instances of probing our armed service members and military installations at the gates, etc, as well as countless cyber ransom attacks and denial of services. To think that there is NOT, at this point, suggests a willful blindness to the facts on the ground, imho.

Having said that I do not recommend hiding in the safety of one's home- that is not any way to live. Still, hone your discretion and discernment and relationship with the good Lord, and listen and obey his voice immediately when he says do do this thing, or do not go to this or that place. Again, imho.

As I posted last week, elsewhere, though it's almost amusing to watch Mossad slapping down Hez and Hamas leaders, there are few things more dangerous than rabid rats backed into the corner, so dismissing these reports and possibilities suggests a lack of well honed assessment skills. They ARE here, and they have NOTHING left to lose.

If something as terrible as another 911 happens across the entire country. I can promise you that 9 out of 10 people in Wyoming will be armed no matter where they are going. To work, school, market, gas station, or church. If it goes as badly as some of our worthless intelligent agencies keep telling us. Then not only will people be carrying handguns, but 70% will also be carrying long guns of one type or another. America will be armed to the teeth.
Rural and some of suburban America will be armed. Woke suburban and urban won't be. There simply isn't one America.

Okay. I've been reading all the thread. Between Mongo, Helen and others input. We have been informed on the Israel thread that they are expanding the war, and Iran has threatened to attack Israel with everything they have. In addition, we learned that a large number of F-15 Strike Eagles and some F-22s among other military equipment have deployed to Israel/the middle east.
IF, and it's a big IF, we might see the home front pop off just prior to an action by Iran and their proxies. That's why our brave congress critters have bailed (same way they have insider stock trading info). If Iran/Israel go at it, then we will see the cells activate locally.

In the light of the shipping and now the Teamsters strike (thank you MM), best pick up extra batteries, tin foil, spare parts, anti-freeze, oil filters, oil, etc.
Another security item might be a front door block, and maybe some motion sensor alarms. The sensor and monitor units I have use batteries. I keep the monitor in the bedroom. These are just examples, be sure to get the monitor that can use batteries.
Also, a small battery backup supply for your wifi router and blink/ring alarms/cameras, so you still have warning if power goes out.

I could not get the links to post, search Amazon with these key words:

1. driveway alarms wireless outside battery == should be the fourth one down with white boxes
2. night security door barricade == should be floor bracket and L-shape insert to block the door

Sorry about the lack of links. Maybe someone can find a way to get short link to these.

But IF they hit other places, Tennessee, Georgia, Texas, etc -- they'll hit the places where guns aren't allowed. Movie theaters, malls, etc. Joke will be on them though, because most people I know who carry, also do so to the movie theater and the mall.

I used to get calls all the time about carrying guns in the mall as SIMON Property Group has a "gun free" policy.

I would tell them, "If your weapon is concealed, like it should be, I will never know the differnce, right?" Never had a complaint about that answer.

Independent may be a misunderstanding. They didn't fare overly well back in "21, and it seems as if their few remaining connections to other grids - including to Mexico - saved them.

ERCOT has DEVASTATED the Texas grid. They are a case study on that not to do. However, if management of the Texas grid was ever sorted out to abandon green energy and return to conventional generators, including nuclear, I think they would do just fine. It irritates me that Texas went from the cheapest to the most expensive electricity in the span of about 30 years.

Exactly.

Also, I've always found it interesting that some of the anchor stores don't have the "no guns" sign on the door. I make sure to give those stores more of my money by shopping there first. Or, more accurately, by seeing to it that my daughters shop in those stores first. I'm not big on going to the mall unless I'm dragged there.

As for places/dates, Spirit Halloween stores in the days before Halloween probably fit as multiple soft targets, as would the malls on Black Friday. However, I can't shake a nagging feeling about either October 7th or the days right around it. Not a lot of people in movie theaters on a Monday, probably not a ton of people at the mall, which takes them back to a 9/11 type thing where they attack people where they work. Schools would also be full. And homes, later in the evening, or that night.

Which means we don't KNOW when or where, and we can't stay home until January when we hope Trump becomes president again and starts kicking people out of the country who shouldn't be here. I carry everywhere I go anyway, except government buildings, and I'm never in those anymore since my kids are no longer in school. I don't think much is going to change for us, except I'll be thinking of exit strategies in public a little more often, probably.

Take note of the FedGov response to the hurricane damage (and I mean LACK of response) and plan accordingly.
East coast ports are out of service for a while stopping new cargo coming in.
Movement, power, and transportation along the hurricane damage track is deeply impaired.
Do you think trucks will be bringing food, medical supplies, or gasoline, other goods cross country if we have numerous large scale terrorist attacks? I'd say NO, so plan for that!

I heard a few days ago an interview with Hillary where she was talking about the poll numbers for Harris not being all that great. She said..."I'm not worried about it...there will be an October surprise and all that will change".

I hate it when that "bi**h" talks like that.

In truth, a creative Terror Cell would use "relief trucks" as operational camouflage and bait... Show up at a disaster location, start distributing "aid packages," draw a crowd, then detonate the distributed packages and open up on the crowd.

We are so VERY vulnerable.

I had a dream that was memorable. A friend who considers himself secure, had his place pilferaged and wiped clean of all belongings. The packs of immigrants had descended upon his house and shot the dog (to be eaten later). They took generator, dog and everything else out. Wiped his world clean of all worldly possessions.

I can't help but think that today's events by Iran is not some sort of "go" message to the Muslim invaders. amen

Omg. Hubby is making me go to the tulsa state fair friday morning simply because he got free tickets. We got in an out-n-out shouting fight about it. I lost. His only concession was friday morning when it shouldn't be too busy.
If you are in the area, and have a scanner, try listening in on the following frequencies:

453.9000 WRAB304 127.3 PL Fairgrounds 1 -- Primary Tulsa County Fairgrouds/ Expo Square
453.4000 WRAB304 127.3 PL Fairgrounds 2 -- Secondary Tulsa County Fairgrouds/ Expo Square
454.4125 127.3 PL Fairgrounds 3 Tulsa County Fairgrouds/ Expo Square

They have received a new license for a trunked system (ULS License - Industrial/Business Pool, Trunked License - WSEN283 - Bearcom Operating) (and I don't see them setup on the statewide Trunked system OKWIN) , but I don't know if that is up and operational for this event yet, and even if it is, they will probably have the feed going to one of those older frequencies. I'm betting that they are still using the ones above.

Trunked system:
Mobile radios:
451.5125
451.6875
451.7375
452.0125
Portable radios:
456.5125
456.6875
456.7375
457.0125

If you have a scanner, you could be listening in to the channels this week to see which ones are live and which aren't as well as getting a feel for what "chatter" is flowing over them.

I don't know about taking a scanner in to the fair, as that may set off alarms for them, but that may not be a bad idea if the fair is a large enough venue and if an issue crops up on the other end of it, it may give you a few minutes more time to get out.

Just a thought...

I shared the video with a fellow that DH and I have gotten to be friends with. He thinks we will get raptured before things get unbearable. I do disagree with him.
Yeah.....we're not going go be that lucky. Hope for the best....but prepare for the worst. You usually end up with something in between.
