The most important thing I learned from this program is a lesson our founders knew. We can NEVER trust the government, no matter who is president

"It safe guards the vast wealth of the United States" The U.S. national debt is currently around $36.22 trillion 🤣🤣 We broke as a joke! Fun fact, its takes about 31 years just to count to one trillion.

We demand full transparency & accountability for what is really going on in our government. Complete corruption & lies from within our very own crooked government is unacceptable.🛡⚖

While in the Army on a training mission I apparently was flying my OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopter too close to the most outer fence at Fort Knox. A polite man’s voice came across my radio and simply said “You’re too close lead aircraft, move away immediately.” I don’t know how they knew my team’s internal frequency and didn’t feel too close, but I moved outward and on my way. Yes, not even the U.S. Army pilots were trusted to fly “too close” to Fort Knox. It was a cool radio call I’ll never forget… I simply replied with one word, “Roger.”

Many years ago when I was in the US Army, I was told that when our scientists used quite a lot of the gold to make the machine that was used to make the nuclear bombs that we dropped on Japan. When they were done with it , they took the reactor and buried it because it was highly radioactive ☢️.
