Brushwood Media Network — Teenager Takeover: Recently "Released" Epstein Files. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
Welcome to the Real Power Family Radio Show, brought to you by Family Success Triangle. Where we talk about how we achieved financial freedom in two years, by the time we were 30. If we can do it, so can you. We will bring you the people who can help you achieve financial freedom, time freedom, and location freedom. Learn how we integrated our business, investing and homeschooling into everyday life. Now, here is the Real Power Family, Eric, Wyla, Devon, and Ethan. Welcome to the Real Power Family Radio Show. Today is a teenager takeover episode where we have some exciting news and starting off with some breaking news, Ethan. And that is the government sucks. It's no way, really? Yeah. And in the latest episode of... And in the latest episode of Who Could Come Up With This, it's too insane that it's
hard to believe. Actually, this one isn't as hard to believe it's some of the other things. But the Epstein files, Ethan, if you didn't hear yet, which I think I told you earlier, but they were released. They released a lot of the quotation marks, like release. With more redactions than you could possibly imagine, entire pages are either just black or are filled with so much green because apparently we can redact in green now. I guess that's a thing. I don't know when that started. They up... With all of the ridiculous printing that the government does and all of their upcharges and tax increases and stuff, they now have the budget to lie in hide truths from American people in green rather than just black. They must have upgraded to color printers. Yeah. In any event, they're as far as I can tell, at least... Oh, wait, no, no, no, no. That's it. They wasted all their black redacting, all of the Epstein and JFK files already.
They ran out of black. They needed another color. Oh, okay. Okay, I can see that. It racist to redact with black. Well, they still redact in many pages in black. So I've gone through hundreds of pages of stuff myself in addition to too many photos that they put on there or whatnot that gave me nothing of use and a lot of redactions. But after going through a lot of it, I haven't made it through every part of those files yet. I'm sure some people have or will. But there certainly was no list. So unfortunately, I cannot broadcast the list of everybody that should be put in prison because of this at least not yet. So we'll see what happens in the future. But this is not the transparency that the Epstein Transparency Act was supposedly named after. I guess government really does just make sure those laws are the opposite.
The names are the opposite of what they actually do, Patriot Act, Inflation Reduction Act, etc. Epstein Transparency Act, yeah, that adds up. I mean, can we really say we're surprised? No. I mean, look at how quickly a bunch of people in the government and in Congress and stuff just turned around and thought, oh, yeah, let's really see Epstein files and Trump being one of them. I mean, let's see. Let's look at this from the top. Starting from him campaigning, he was, let's really see Epstein files to it's a hoax. And then, oh, I guess then it's just for it. Then he said it's a hoax. Then he was for it again. And now here we are. Are we really surprised? I'm pretty sure I said in one of our last teenager takeovers that with how long it's been and with all these people suddenly switching back saying, oh, yeah, let's release the Epstein files, specifically or at least mainly talking about Trump. I'm not surprised that it's heavily redacted and we didn't get anything useful. Yeah.
It's like the third time they released something like first they had the media gathering with this, you know, fancy white binder that's labeled the Epstein files part one or something. And then everyone waved that around and had a media stunt out of it and there was nothing inside of it of use. And then they had some email leaks or something and there was also not really anything new or different or anything in there. Not a whole lot. And now there's this which is heavily redacted and I mean, how many I heard someone talk about it and Devin, you look through a handful of the things. I think someone said, I saw a video on YouTube of all places talking about this where it was one, I forget the name of what it was, but it was like 53 pages straight. They were completely blacked out. Yeah. The one person I heard talking about it said that's not even redacted at that point. It's just like, redacted or something in any event that is not how you release files.
All right. I could take a sharpie and recreate those one for one. It's not that it's not useful. Why do you think we want these files out there? It's not. This is not a difficult thing to figure out. And yet, well, no, they know why we want them out there. That's why they have to adapt and well, maybe that's the case. And either they're evil or stupid, not all of them, just the ones that are doing this. In any event, they should not be in Congress, in whatever position they may be at, put all those redactions in. So other than like Thomas Massey, maybe we need to get some new people in there. I was going to say, I said before about everyone switching back. I think Thomas Massey, still one of the few Thomas Massey, Rand Paul, we brought up Marjorie Taylor Green, possibly being involved with some scheme.
I don't know if I fully believe that. I don't. I mean, there's some things with that that are weird, but he's leaving office and all of that. Anyway, so somebody's going to have to replace her in any event, moving on to something. After this came out and whatnot, Thomas Massey had put a poll out on X that was, do you think that, or actually here, I'll just read it, is a pambondi being transparent and complying with the Epstein Files Transparency Act by releasing the appropriate and necessary information. And this is a poll. And the two options were the DOJ is being transparent or the DOJ is not being transparent. Like it's almost surprising to me because the line that the DOJ is not transparent was only 97%. I'm not sure that you can get a whole lot better consensus than that.
Yeah. Yeah. And just bringing this up, how are, how do people not realize like the people on the government who are doing this, who are behind this? They're working so hard to protect pedophiles. Like this is probably if not the lowest of the low crime that you can commit. Like the worst thing you can do, it's other than maybe murder or genocide or something. It's pretty bad. Let's just keep it at that. Yeah. And not only are they still in their positions and have this good press, they're not, not only are they not getting arrested, they're still in these positions. They're still, I mean, think about it. If you knew that, say, Disney, whoever is in charge of Disney now, just going to use them as an example, if you knew that, you know, the CEO of Disney was a pedophile and well, did everything that we've brought up before, that I'm not going to get into detail.
How many people do you think would want to support Disney or go to say watch the many people? And yet we need to know that, like we need to know who these people are, want to make sure that they are being held accountable for the things they did, which means sending a lot of people to prison. I don't care if it screws up the majority of our political landscape and not only this country, but all around the world, I don't, that would be a good thing. What about the entire entertainment industry? Because plenty of people have said that releasing this would take down the entire entertainment industry. Good. There's not many great movies out there anyway. As I say, first off, most of the new movies suck, which also I do have news on the entertainment industry, but I will bring that up later, something that Disney and Paramount is doing. But also, we're back too. If you're worried about it collapsing parts of the government, do you really want people who are pedophiles and who have tried to protect these pedophiles in government?
Do you really want that type of person leading you or representing you or your country? You're out. I sure don't. I wouldn't. I mean, can you imagine, Ethan, if you were talking to our founding fathers, the people who created this country and where they fought attacks or, yeah, they fought the government over like a 3% tax on T among perhaps a couple other things and granted, there's more to it than that. But very low percentages. And now we're paying between 30 to 50% income tax for some people in some places. And on top of that, the money that they're taking from us is going to, you know, criminals who are protecting said pedophiles. Yep. And also, how many people were trying to slander and get rid of like George Washington monuments or whatever or statues because he was a slave owner and yet we have people in the government
now who are pedophiles. So I'm not saying one's better than the other. Yeah. I would probably, you know, we're not going to get into that. I do have something to add onto the whole taxes thing, but I can bring that up right after this break. If you were a loved one benefacted by inflation, yes, we have the product for you.

Welcome back to the Real Power Family Radio Show. We're Ethan. I think you have some news on taxes they were going to bring up and I do not know what's going on. So, enlighten me. Not really news, but just something to bring up since you brought up before you went to break about, could you imagine our founding fathers fought a war over what two, three percent tax?
And now, well, let me just bring up. I have the list of taxes that the average American pays. So I'm just going to go through those right now. Property tax. Sales tax. State income tax. Marriage license fees. Local school tax. Vehicle registration tax. Business permit fees. Estate tax. Waste management tax. cigarette tax. Court fees. Dog license tax. Drivers license fees. Garbage tax. Gas tax. Gun ownership fees. Gift tax. Social security taxes. Unemployment taxes. Fishing license fees. Highway toll fees. Hotel tax. Hunting license fees. Import tax. Health insurance tax. Inheritance tax. Insect control tax. Inspection fees. IRS interest and penalty charge. Library card fees. License plate fees. Licker tax. Luxury tax. Medicare tax.
Parking meter fees. Passport fees. Biodiesel fuel tax. Air transportation tax. Professional license fees. Recreational vehicle tax. Self-employment tax. Tour and water tax. Service charge taxes. Sports stadium tax. State park entrance fees. I think you got the point of 9.11 tax. Hold on, I'm almost done. Universal service fees. Yeah. Tire tax. And of course, the federal income tax. Okay, now I'm done. And that's just all the taxes we pay. And I think you missed a couple because I still have to pay for permits. When it comes to fixing the properties, including when they tell me I have to fix stuff, and then it has to pay them in the game. That's just for average Americans. So that's not even some of the more specialized stuff. That is, and this brings me back to that. But that's even more than I expected. Would you do go for a minute or two, like two full minutes or something? I looked at my timer. I think it was a minute and 30 to two minutes.
Just listing off the amount of taxes we have. The types of tax, the normal or average person pays. That's not even all of them. This brings me back to the perfect movie quote, or quote from a TV show, Sleepy Hollow. How are people not flocking to the streets in outrage? Yeah, because what do we pay now? Like 50% in taxes are more on our money. I mean, you get taxed before you make it. When you receive it, you have taxes and fees. If you hold it, you get taxed. When you buy something, you're taxed. When you hold that thing that you buy, assuming it's an asset, you get taxed. You might have unrealized, what is that? Unrealized gains tax. Can you sell it? You have sales tax. That's not a real thing. Exactly yet. Although property tax is the thing, which is very similar. Property tax. You sell that sales tax. Then you have every stage. And yeah, inflation is also, you can consider that a tax.
And that is also insanity. But Ethan, that's a lot. And we should probably be doing more to fight against this. If people haven't helped in, at least people in Ohio, fight at least one of these taxes. Well, you can fight to end property taxes, which everybody pays, even if you don't own your own home, the person that rents you to the home has to pay that, which means your rent has to be higher for them to be able to pay it. And to get rid of those taxes, go to ax0htax.com. That's ax0htax.com. And you can figure out how to sign the petition so that we can hopefully end property taxes in Ohio. That would make things a lot better. Now. This gets passed in Ohio is a decent chance. I know Florida is one of them. Do you know all the states that have brought up possibly doing something like that? I know the only ones that know are Florida and Ohio.
Because I do know, I heard stuff about Florida. I don't think there is far along getting something in as we are. But at least they have their governor behind them. I don't know. I thought there was more, but I don't know names. So I'm not going to, I'm not going to try and guess. Yeah. So we'll see what goes on with all of that, but I am going to keep pushing and I'm really hoping to end those property taxes. It would certainly be nice for everyone. Anyway, Ethan, now let's get onto something else. And I want to see if you know this. Kind of moving forward to where our tax dollars go, specifically with the war department. Ethan, do you know where? Everywhere. Yeah. Do you know what it means, Ethan? When there is much, a much higher volume of pizza orders at or near the Pentagon, uh, but oh, I'm sure there's an index or something for this. Doesn't that mean that they're planning something or something's going to happen? Yeah, but for just about every major war or whatever it starts, there is a large spike in the amount of pizza
that gets delivered to the Pentagon. That isn't a joke. This is how people actually track when we're about to have a war. I mean, the business government literally use the, it's amazing how many things like that there are. Doesn't even our own government use like a, they rate how dangerous or destructive some disasters are by seeing if a waffle house is open because waffle house, I got to give it to him. Dad might make fun of them a lot. I went to a waffle house decently recently. Chicken biscuit and hash browns were two toppings. Five bucks, including hard coffee. Have you noticed at the waffle house, they speak their own language? Two hash brown scattered smothered Mike one covered. Ooh, that's gotta be good. I mean, it's not like great food, but it's not terrible. It's better than McDonald's, that's for sure. And mine's not a huge competition there. Are we sure McDonald's is still serving? You know what? I'll save that for later, still serving food. I'm pretty sure they're not, but yeah, they're waffle house. I don't, there's a literal, they have like three different dates.
Like they're either open fully. And that means that the weather's fine. You know, nothing's going on. If there's a power outage or if something goes wrong, they have like a, it's like a yellow something menu. So there's, you can't get everything that you normally could, but you can still get some. And if the waffle house is completely closed, that's like a red alert. Whatever is in the area is really bad. It's either like a war or like a heavy tornado or hurricane or something. Yeah, they have, but don't people like judge how bad some things are based off of that or at least like short term, how bad a natural disaster or something is? I think it's the waffle house index or something. Yeah, I believe the waffle house index is a thing that people use. And I don't know about government, but I know people use it to determine how bad a hurricane or whatever else is. Like, I'm going to look up the house index real quick.
Yeah, you look that up, see how bad it is anywhere. I don't think there's anything bad going on at least not in this country that would cause waffle house to be closed. Normally, hurricanes are what not are probably the most frequent, although I'm sure we can get into the other weird situation that's going on in California later on in this show. But we can talk about more right after this break. Hi, this is Eric Wolland from the Real Power Family and best selling author of Family Success Trangle. Learn how my wife and I became financially free by the time we were only 30 and how we taught these secrets to our kids so they could do the same without any of our money or credit when they were just teenagers. Pick up a copy of our book, Family Success Trangle, available on Amazon today. And don't forget to tune in to the Real Power Family radio show. Weekdays at 7 a.m. Eastern on the Brushwood Media Network. Welcome back to the Real Power Family Radio Show. Before we went to break, I brought up the waffle house index
and just a quick look online. It is the waffle house index. You can look it up if you want more. Yes, apparently the metric is unofficially used by FEMA to inform for disaster response. And yes, green is full menu. Restaurant has power and damages, minimal or absent. Yellow level is the limited menu. Power is either absent or delivered by a generator or food supplies are running low. Red, restaurant enclosed. Restaurant is closed. Indicates severe damage, severe flooding, severe destruction to the restaurant. So that's funny. Yeah, yeah, if it's green, it's not that bad, hunker down, whatever. If it's yellow, I don't know. Maybe think about what you're going to do. If it's red, you better run. Oh, boy, and these are the things that we look at. Anyway, back to what I was talking about before we went to break. And that was before we do that. Can I just bring this up? Why does it seem like we've brought up
that our government really just seems like the stuff we talk about makes it sound like it's out of a movie. If we think about it, we have a washing machine company that also makes things like the gun on the A10 and Warthog. We have defense contractors helped build things like the B2 stealth bomber, the B21, also make the vehicle used by the post office to deliver mail. That's going to be brought up in a later show. I don't know when, but I need to do more research on that. And we have the government, we have all the Epstein stuff, which is not super funny, but it's definitely interesting. And you have FEMA unofficially using the Waffle House index to determine how bad a storm is. Yeah. And don't forget how like everything that's owned by Vanguard, BlackRock, and State Street, who came up with that,
like who made this whole world building thing? Whoever the developer is, I want to talk to him. Seriously, it's like all in some weird fantasy book that the writer or director or whatever just put like a bunch of monkeys in a room on typewriters or just threw a bunch of darts at the wall to land on random stickiness to decide what clump of ideas we're going to put together into a story. Never know. That's our government. We could have a whole set up of, what's that one movie where the guy lives the TV show? The Truman show? The Truman show, that one. We could be just a whole Truman show situation where it got really interesting around season 2020. Anyway, so anyway, where was I before we got to that? Oh, yeah, pizza. Hi, pizza orders that the Pentagon and just before I got too far away from that one to bring up that the current speculation
is that we're going to fight a war with or in or whatever Venezuela, because why not? We need one more endless war. That's a joke. We do not do not go to war with Venezuela or anyone else for that matter. We're back to we're still what I looked it up. Actually, it was a bit back, but we're at like 38.5 trillion or something in debt or we're really far in debt. Yeah, we don't have the, I mean, we can keep printing, but that's not going to do us any good to what? Go and kill people. I mean, we've talked before about killing what a dad call an unlicensed pharmacist. Yeah, I do remember talking about possibly getting into a war with Venezuela. Didn't they like praise Trump for being the guy who got us out of all of these wars? And now he might be getting us into one. Yeah. Are we going to get into one just to get out of it to say, hey, look, Trump got us out of another war?
Yeah, well, if he got us into it, it doesn't really help. Now does it? No, no, that's not super useful. Just getting us into and out of wars isn't better. We're still spending money on war. I want to reduce the government's spending especially on military. We don't need as much as we have. We don't need it for only $1 military budget. Do you know how much a trillion dollars is? Sorry. You got to look at the bottom line for things. People just to put this in like real estate terms. Dad's brought up on financial Fridays. People might be focused on I want this much gross income. It cares about gross. Look at net. If we're forgetting into wars, we should be focused on the net. Let's get out of the Russia Ukraine thing. Let's get out of the Gaza situation. Let's not get us into any more wars because even if we get into and then out of a war, the net's not going to change. All we're going to do is waste time, energy, money, resources and probably human lives. And yet here we are constantly killing more people
and spending more money, which is not something we want to be doing. It's just not good for us, not good for anybody, for that matter. And while we're on the topic, Well, I mean, it's good for general electricians and Raytheon and whoever makes stuff like the F-35 and whatever bombs are dropped. But other than that, it's not good for the American people. It's not good for the Venezuelan people. It's not good for the military people who have to, you know, the soldiers out there who have to go and actually do all of this. No, no, it's not what we want. It's not what, as far as I can tell, most of the American people want. And yet here we are constantly ending up here. And it's just, it's not a good solution. It's not where we want to be. Exactly. All right, let's see. So how did you come up with that? Is there a bunch of pizza orders to the white house or to the Pentagon? Oh, yeah, the big spike in pizza orders to the Pentagon. That's how that came up. So yeah, that could happen.
We're going to see what side note, what pizza does the Pentagon order? I don't think we get that information and it probably varies by which war room we're referring to. I'm guessing pepperoni or pepperonian sausage or climate like which brand. I know that, I don't know, one of the big ones, I think Domino's I may have seen is at least one of them. Anyway, let's get back to something slightly more serious. And by serious, I mean medieval. So in Germany, Ethan, and I think we'd brought this up on a family show not too long ago, but when to bring up on the teenager takeover because it's funny and entertaining and also is fairly educational. So Germany, who they must have really gotten down their gun violence and gotten rid of all the guns and everything, I don't actually have details on how much they've gone after guns Ethan, if you want to look that up real quickly. Yeah, they now have a whole lot of knife violence.
And as I said on the family show, it's almost as if the guns weren't the problem, it's the people doing the killing that were the problem. Anyway, so the police to counter these knives have now at least some of the police, not all of them, but some of them, as they're wearing chainmail armor. Chainmail? Chainmail. That's crazy. I'm gonna go get my medieval knife. I would love, do you have a picture of this? I want to see a cop in chainmail. I actually, I did have that up, where is it? Germany, give me a second, I'll get it up. You know, here in America, we went to Excalibur one of the times we were in Vegas a couple of years back and I'm pretty sure one of the members of our family made a joke, we're back too. You know why there's not jousting anymore? Because one night said to the other one, I'm, let's go jousting. The one's like, okay, whatever. And so they all, they get up on their horses,
they line up and then they wait until high noon or whatever. And then once the ones start charging, the other one just sits there all calm, waits and then pulls out a gun and shoots the other one. Because this is America, we have a second amendment. Yeah, all right, you got it. I'll send this, but now we're back to chainmail. Yeah, we're back to chainmail. We're really, we're evolving backwards as far as I can tell. This, I mean, granted some parts, we're actually getting better in some things from what I can tell, like I brought up in a previous teenager takeover how the price of homes or actually more the mortgage payment measured in hours worked is less now than it was back in 1980. And like, so that parts, it's getting better. Enough people are realizing the government may not have your best interests at heart that perhaps we can actually get something to change,
reduce taxes, reduce the size of government for the first time in many, many years, maybe 250 years. It really, I don't know when the last time we actually truly shrunk government was, but it's been a while. It hasn't been in my lifetime. I know that much. 1774 or 1776 somewhere in the air, excuse me. All right. On your definition of shrinking. Anyways, yeah. We will come back right after this break because I'm sure we've got some other interesting and incredible news to talk about. Brushwood, media network. Well, it may seem like a harmless activity spending countless hours in front of the television could be negatively influencing your children. I'm Shelby Cullinan with your latest health news. A recent study found that when parents watch two or more hours of television a day, their children were more likely to follow suit compared to others. The study authors noted that screen viewing habits can persist throughout adulthood. So establishing healthy habits in childhood
is very important. Limit the time you watch television. Welcome back to The Real Power, a family radio show. And a question that Devon brought up before break that I wanted to bring up again is are we devolving as a civilization? Like some people are making large strides forward, but there are also some parts of the world and some people that really make me question where the human race is going. Cause we brought up before the, here, go ahead Devon. We have a group known as the progressives that are openly pushing for just stealing wealth from anybody more successful than they are. Oh boy. This is called socialism by the way in case you're not sure what I'm referring to. Oh yeah, that is openly stealing at the point of a gun. Sure, you have government as an intermediary. Oh no, they ban guns and us were definitely are supposed to be law abiding citizens.
Give up our guns. The government will protect you. Now we're only held at knife point. I wish I would have bought that chain mail. I may end up getting myself some chain mail just for already have like cut resistant arm bands or something. Yeah, I do have that. And I do have a handful of swords. So maybe the chain mail wasn't a terrible thing. But anyway, just, you gotta, you gotta have it for self defense. And like, what if they have a gun? No, I have that so they are so I can claim self, no where it was. I, let's stay moderately on track. What was our, just to bring up the, are we devolving? Cause, yeah, there's a lot of interesting stuff going on. Like I at least get it the cops using chain mail. It makes sense. That's a solution to knife violence. But if you have to go back to wearing chain mail because of how much knife or machete or whatever violence there is, how did you get there? Maybe we need to do something. Maybe we need a different solution than just taking away the weapons.
Cause let's take away the knives. They're just gonna find something else. Let's really ask ourselves. My dad would say question everything. The question that you should be asking yourself is how did we get here? If you band all these weapons, they're just find different weapons. I mean, how long have been, have people been fighting each other? Pretty much for as long as I can remember, if you're, if you're a Christian or a Jewish, then since like the second generation of humans, like three people in, four people in, they're already killing each other. Didn't last very long. We're gonna find different weapons, whether it's rocks, whether it's, you know, what is that? I don't know. There's not a short and over high tech as you wanna make it. Humans have been fighting each other since, well, since we've existed, or at least as long as I think recorded history, goes. Oh, I wrote a paper on different war tactics. Back in whatever times, they literally would light pigs
and oh, someone, I brought this up on a teenager takeover before I think about weapons. Someone wanted to like either strap bombs to bats or something flying with the bats and then like let them loose to hang in someone's house and then like the house on fire. That backfire ended up burning an entire city down. But, you know, I guess it worked. Just, they, their city burned down not their enemies. Basically what I'm saying, there's no shortage of weapons and with the creativity of people, that's not gonna go well to try and ban everything. Yeah, you can't just take away the weapon. That's not, that's not the root of the problem. The real problem comes from people who believe it's okay to kill. People that either have no, they don't have the morals to know that it's wrong. People that have no sense of a higher power.
So, any kind of a religion at all. Just people that's too many times, just, oh, you did something wrong. You know what, we're gonna let you go. 18th try is the charm. And then they just, for whatever reason and maybe there was more to it, but they just go and kill somebody for no reason on a train. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And all of that for someone, you, someone says something you don't like and then you go and try and kill them. Yeah. How many people at schools, whatever may be happening in all of that and suddenly it's okay to do that? Hey, I'm gonna be, what do you mean something in schools? Ethan? Okay, the way you said that just sounded really weird. Sorry. Anyway. But you know, you're gonna be a big fan of that. Killing or stealing from someone
for any reason whatsoever, reasonable. How did we get here? What makes people think that that's a good or reasonable idea? Well, that's what I'm kind of trying to get at, Ethan, is just when you don't have something to really believe in or any reason to, I guess, be good in my definition. There's nothing stopping you from doing what's evil or wrong or just doing whatever feels right at the time regardless of consequence. You don't think there's gonna be any consequence. What else is there? And like, here's actually a suggestion, I believe this is from a comedian, so take it with a grain of salt, but it would be moderately more interesting. Like all of these school shooters, Ethan, how many of them, like, oh, their name and face and everything is plastered all over after they do it? Maybe instead of just doing that,
we should instead just call them by whatever name that was used to bully them, that made them go and commit that crime. Solution, arm the teachers, and then the next time there's a school shooting, it will be an enticement to anyone who thinks that that's a good idea to not do that. Well, there's also that option, which is probably just as good or better. In any event, there are things that we could be doing, and there's a lot of other things that go into that, not, I don't know enough about it, nor do I have enough notes, nor do I have enough time to go over it in the show, so that that will get delayed to a later time. Can we get onto something slightly happier? Cause this just got even darker real quick. We started with Epstein, so not really sure where you expected this show to go, but we can try. There is no try. But anyway, we will get onto something at least a little bit happier right after this break.
I'm Eric from the Real Power Family Radio Show on the Brushwood Media Network. I'm here with my lovely wife, Alilah, who is known as the mom of the power family. And I gotta tell you, just 25 years ago, we were sleeping on a mattress on a warehouse floor, then we learned to buy more hard assets faster, like Real Power Family Silver Rounds from American Gold Exchange. If you want to get your own Real Power Family Silver Rounds, you can call American Gold Exchange at 1-800-613-9323, or you can visit their website at AMERgold.com. Welcome back to the Real Power Family Radio Show. Before you went to break, Devin wanted to talk about something happier, which does make sense, but I don't have a happy or a funny topic for this show. I have legacy media as racist, RF Fauci is being sued by RFK and lied about vaccines. Oh, he told me about that.
And oh, McDonald's protecting illegal immigrants from ICE. Yeah, tell me about either of those last two, because those both sound at least entertaining. Okay, so I was scrolling through X as I normally do. And I saw a post from Wall Street Apes. I'm just going to read the top off to you, because I think it's funny. And McDonald's franchise located at 2-9-2-9, Hennepin Avenue, South Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55408. It's protecting illegals from ICE in their location. So, you know, not to name any names, but the McDonald's at 2-9-2-9, Hempton and Avenue South. Yeah, you get the point. Apparently there's a guard at the door who stops anyone who looks like they're from ICE from entering to protect the illegal immigrants in there. So, yeah, we're back to, why do we have people trying to protect someone?
They're literally called illegal immigrants, illegal aliens, whatever you call them. Some people might call them undocumented citizens, but they're illegally in our country. We're back to, this should not be an argument if their legal immigration is illegal. Illegal immigration is illegal. This is not complicated. This should not be. I'm breaking into most of the other countries in the world. The how that works for you. How about this? How about the, well, since all of the people in the government who think this is a good idea, or just all the people in general who think this is a good idea? Watch you let all these illegals stay in your home. Yeah, actually. If you think that letting these people into our country just, oh, they don't need to be here legally. And yeah, they're in some places like California, Chicago and New York, I think. They weren't getting prosecuted when they committed crimes. So, you know, who cares?
What father, why bother? But if they're in some, in your home, especially if you have kids, just this random person, might change some people's minds. Oh, yeah, bring them into this country. Bring them into the country. What's going to stop them from breaking more laws? I mean, how many people would say, oh, yeah, bring them into this country. Let's, you know, pay to help them out, get them started, all that fun stuff. But if you bring any of them to the people they're saying, bring them to their house and say, all right, here's this guy, he's undocumented, have fun, he can live with you. We don't have another place to put him and then just leave. How many of that, how many people would be okay with that? Yeah, so Ethan, did I bring him up on a previous show, the like a sponsor, a deportee with ICE thing? Oh, okay. So, somebody had this idea to bring in some more revenue
for the government or more specifically ICE, where it's just, you know, for a couple hundred dollars or whatnot, you could pay, you could send it to ICE and then they would essentially like, that would go towards deporting some illegal immigrant and then they could give you like a little printout or something of like, yeah, here's who you helped deport, they were in here illegally and here's some of the other crimes that they committed while they were here. That's cool. So that would be pretty interesting. A lot of them would donate for that. It's like the Mr. Beast things where he had, I know whenever he reached a subscriber milestone, like for 20 million, he had team trees, and every dollar you donated to, it was probably teamtrees.com or dot org or something, they would, you know, someone would plant one tree and same thing they did for team season, team water and stuff like that. Team free USA or something.
And this is not from him. So don't go hating on him. But like, we can donate money to help DeForto Legos. Do you actually get like a, this is who you helped deport? It's not something that's actually like, this is just somebody on the internet brought it up as a cool idea. It's not actually happened. But it would be cool on B. It would be really cool if they did though. That would be awesome. And I mean, some organizations have done something similar where it's like, hey, pay this amount of money, feed a kid in Africa or something. And then it's like, here's the kid you helped feed, even if that might not actually be the kid. But it's, you know, something cool, you can say you helped. In any event, like that would be a cool thing they could do. Yeah, we talk about like first off, get rid of taxes because that's just blatant theft and let people donate on what they want. If we have, you know, people like us who use some of these airports, I'd be happy to donate to the airport. But it makes no sense for people,
like our place in Tennessee, the airport's been improved a lot recently. I think they just like redid the entire runway and like black top, the whole airport basically. And they've redid the inside of the building and all this stuff. I'm fine paying for that because we get to use it. We use that airport, but it makes no sense for the people who, you know, live in just this tiny town in the middle of nowhere, Tennessee to be paying for an airport that they're never going to use and might not even know is there. Depends on how long they stay there. It's a small town and, you know, who knows? Yeah, but still. Yes, the people that, the people that never fly an airplane shouldn't have to pay for the airport. The people that, yeah, we can donate all of the pilots. I'm sure they'd be happy to donate to improve the airport if they use it. Same goes here. I don't wanna give you my tax dollars just so you can go and give it to Ukraine so they can do whatever they want with it or to use that to buy or make bombs to Wilson
to Ukraine so they can do whatever they want with it. Or really just to any country or a lot of the things that the government does. Money to hire people to black out the Epstein files. Also don't want my money going there. But I would be happy to donate some of my money to help get rid of some of the illegals. That sounds like a good use of my tax dollars. And if you could just choose what your tax dollars went to, just select this box. If you wanna give money, if you want some of your tax money to go to ICE, select this box. If you want some of your tax money to go to the SEC. Okay, we'll leave that one off. This one for airports. This one for roads. This one for this. And then it's just like, select which things you want your tax dollars to go to. Airports. Yes, roads. Yes, ICE. Yes. Oh, I had a couple of things. The FBI, no thank you. Yeah, FBI. No, all of these government things. No, federal wars. Yeah. And then you could really make it. And that's just people could vote by how much money
do you want to go to each of these things? Like do you really want to spend was that if you take a trillion dollars for the military budget, how many people are U.S. citizens? Can you look at them? How many people? Oh, how many U.S. citizens are there? Because if I'm looking this up, I'm gonna figure out, hey, do you really want to pay, however many thousands of dollars or whatever it is to be able to do that? Is it 300 million, Ethan? I think it's gotta be. 340 million, I think? Yeah, 340 million makes it a little under $3,000 per person. If we actually get the war budget to a trillion dollars which it'll probably hit in the not too distant future. So do you want to be paying $3,000 a year? $3,000 for every single person that's a U.S. citizen?
Do you want to be paying that much for us to do whatever we do with all of our military when I can almost guarantee that we do not need anywhere near the smudge military to protect the U.S. We probably need next to nothing, especially considering all of the guns in the U.S. all of the hunters and everything else put that together and we really don't need a big military. And yet we have a thing. Do you see the amount of people that live in the middle and know where just setting stuff up, just waiting for the chance to use the things they've set up in the event that someone and tries to invade our country? Like I saw a video from someone they were talking about Jurassic Park and they're like, you're telling me, if dinosaurs were recreated nowadays, you're telling me there wouldn't be some ranch down in the middle of nowhere, Texas where you could hunt a velociraptor for $100,000 because they're gonna do that. We're gonna have fun and you're telling me
that if we do stupid stuff going hunting for velociraptors and just look, I mean, we've brought up how many people hunt deer. Just deer alone, white tail deer. That doesn't count birds and squirrels and whatever else other people hunt and whatever might get hunted, that doesn't get tagged and counted into whatever government site counts that stuff or wherever it's counted. Yeah, and yet in all of that, especially Ethan, you had kind of brought up how many people are just wishing for the circumstance where they actually get to fight off an invading force? Like there is plenty of people in areas like, say, the South who have watched Red Dawn one too many times and are just waiting to recreated and be the people left on the US side. I'm going with, there's a handful, maybe more than a handful. There's plenty out there.
And how many people do you think have stuff set up like that? I saw a funny video on Instagram or something about this guy was talking about his own government clothing after him because he didn't want to go to court. He's like, you know, this guy's lawyers like you know your court dates on like Wednesday and he's like, yep, I know, I'm not going. I've set stuff up. I flew a Vietnamese guy out here to help me dig 28 miles of tunnels. I got clay Morris. I got a whole barn full of pigeons to see forward tide to their feet. I got, I trained or it's surprisingly easy to train a raccoon to cut brake lines and throw rocks at anything with a crew cut or something. Like just obviously that's probably not that's not real but like how many people do you think just to have stuff set up and think, oh well, we'd have stuff set up. Just in case anyone tries to invade. I mean, look at how many tree stands we have on our property, Devon. How many people notice the tree stands when they drive in? Not many.
They might see one or two. The one's pretty easy to tell because there's a parachute hanging out of it, but other than that, there is, we'll see that. In fact, we have to wear orange so we don't blend into much during deer season. We are supposed to wear blaze orange. And if all we have to do is get rid of that and it makes us very hard to spot, I wouldn't want to be someone trying to invade our property or our country. That's for sure. I mean, that's basically, or that's the reason at least one major person in the Soviet army, back with the Soviet Union, with the Cold War, all of that. Sorry. That's why they didn't want to invade America. Like, they had plans. They could have maybe, according to them, they could have handled our military. They could plan for that. What they couldn't plan for is just all of the American people, the average citizen, that's who they were more afraid of.
And that should tell you something. That is one of the biggest reasons among actually using it, protecting ourselves. And then, of course, fighting off tyrannical governments, even our own, but those are the big reasons we have the Second Amendment. It was kind of important. It was you have to be able to have free speech and talk about what you want, like we are constantly utilizing on this show, even if the government may or may not like it. But right after that is you have to be able to defend yourself, and especially defend all of the other amendments to the Constitution and the Constitution itself. So important stuff, right up there and the most important. All right. Second Amendment. I was gonna say it's the Second Amendment. We have the First Amendment, which is one of the most important, make sure people can say what they want and what they believe. But in the event that that won't work, we have the Second Amendment to help protect the First Amendment. And I'd rather settle things without civilly.
Yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm not a, I wouldn't say I'm a pacifist. It's always better to talk things out. And when we have a table out in our government who are actively hiding and protecting pedophiles, we've tried getting them to release this stuff. And I'm not saying they've done it three times now. It, yeah. And like, I want to find a please full resolution to this or to any other circumstance. When it gets to the point where there is not any chance of a peaceful resolution, in that case, you have to defend yourself. And I'm gonna leave it that. I guess we should, it's not time. I don't think it's time for a res, like a actual armed revolution just yet. Yeah, I'm hoping we never get it. It does sound like that's what I'm insinuating. That is not what I'm insinuating. Yeah, that's why they come to try and take us or do stuff like, what is it?
The UK who is arresting people for what they say on social media. When they're doing stuff like that to violate our First Amendment, and if they are physically trying to do that, then that might be where. When we get to the point where if we get to the point, I hope I pray we never do. And if we ever got to the point where the US government was throwing people in jail for social media posts and or trying to take away everybody's guns, that may be where I draw the line. I don't know. Anyway, let's, there's something else real quickly, because we only have a couple minutes left I do want to get this out in the show. Alaska has launched a whole, the start of its digital ID program, which is essentially a way to verify your age without pulling out your real driver's license with all the other details that are on it.
Like they have a whole thing, but TSA can also supposedly there's something that they can use that for. And I'm sure this will tie into everything else and the whole digital ID infrastructure that is probably going to come back and bite anybody that gets it. So I'm going to say no to digital IDs for now. And I would suggest that people do the same because you can tie that into a lot of things that governments already seem to be planning if not implementing. The UK just seems to be the start and the blueprint and I'm sure they'll bring it to everybody else. Coming to a state near you. Anyway, Ethan, wrap us up. You gotta be watching out for what the government is doing and that's why we try and talk about a lot of current events, especially when it relates to something as big as say the Epstein files. We've got to know and we've got to get people to stand up to fight against it. And we also got to help get rid of their funding, which was probably some of the causes
or reasons behind why they can get away with a lot of this. So starting with getting rid of paying taxes, that's probably a good source of their income. Go to axohtax.com and abolish property taxes. And then hopefully that will come to a state near you. For my last minute wrap ups, just continue fighting for freedom, continue standing up and doing what's right. Even when it's not comfortable saying no, the Constitution is the supreme law of the land. You cannot just go against it. Don't care who what you feel like or what you want to do. This is the supreme law. We are a constitutional republic, not a democracy. Use this to make your world a better place. We'll talk to you tomorrow.
