What if the greatest threat to your future isn’t political chaos or an economic collapse—but spiritual blindness? In this powerful episode of Ready Radio, Bill Anderson—your “modern-day Noah”—sits down with expert instructor and patriot Todd Fossey of Integrative Defense Strategies (https://thisisids.com) to uncover the patterns shaping our times. From the art of psychological warfare to the crumbling foundation of our financial system, they reveal how propaganda, fear, and distraction are being used to divide and deceive. Are we witnessing history’s oldest battle—the war for truth—playing out before our eyes? Todd shares insights from his background in neuropsychology, human performance,
SPEAKER 06 :
This is Ready Radio, preparing you to be ready for anything now. Here’s your survival guide for Ready Radio, John Rush.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, good afternoon, Denver. This is Bill Anderson, your modern-day Noah, filling in for John today. And today we’ve got a wonderful topic, wonderful discussion with my instructor, a great friend of mine, Mr. Todd Fossey. Todd, how are you doing?
SPEAKER 07 :
Bill, it’s great to be here. Thanks for having me on.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah. You’re calling all the way from Minnesota and you got to say it that way, right? Minnesota.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, sure.
SPEAKER 08 :
You betcha. Yeah. So, so Todd has got a vast background. And before we, we dive into our conversation today, uh, Todd, would you just let a little bit of, you know, our listeners know a little bit about you?
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, sure. Well, first and foremost, um, I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and I want the audience to know that’s one of the things I was really excited about being on with you, Bill, that we could speak freely on that topic. Second, I’m a patriot. I’m a patriot and lover of my country, the United States. And third, I’m a husband, and I’m also the founder and chief instructor at Integrative Defense Strategies. My background is in neuropsychology. I lectured at medical schools for 15 years on the topic of psychoneuroimmunology. I also have a deep background in motor learning and skill acquisition, the science of human performance. But all of that to be said, I have an interest in big topics. I’m really interested, and I’ve been studying pretty intensely for many years, things like macroeconomics and geopolitics. So all of those things really converge together into this one conversation, I think, that we’re about to have. So I’m excited to go there with you today.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, the kind of the drive behind the topic of this radio and this particular program is ready radio, that we are ready for the what-ifs of life. And often, you know, we think of prepping or preparing in worst-case scenario, but like the IDS system and like you have taught me, strategically speaking, you know, we deal in more likely probabilities today. than the big things. Yeah, the doomsday apocalypse might happen, but you’re probably more likely to be affected with something locally, like maybe a health issue or a loss of a job or even a localized storm. But we also have this on the horizon, this brewing on the horizon, the political storm that I think is before us. And that’s very important because while I have said on the radio program numerous times, you know, there’s things, that we can’t control. We can’t control certain things that’s gonna happen in Washington, let’s just say. And I’m speaking of one individual. Now collectively we can, I understand that, the voices that come together. But when we look at just one person, I’m not gonna be able to control. And not only that, Todd, but I don’t even know exactly what’s going on behind the scenes. And so what I encourage people to do is let’s work on the things that we can control regardless of what happens. But, you know, so that’s kind of where I’d like the conversation to go there. And, you know, but we kind of need a little bit of background as to what we possibly might be facing. You know, we’re on the tail end of an election on Tuesday, which, you know, some people were like, wasn’t surprising. Those are very blue states. And then other people were like, well, it is kind of surprising that, And some of us even think, well, this is going to be maybe what we have to look forward to in the midterms coming up, a big, massive pendulum swing in the other direction. Where can you help us in, you know, that kind of a conversation?
SPEAKER 07 :
When you say a big kind of a pendulum swing in the other direction, what direction are you referring to?
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, the fact that, you know, right now the conservatives have the House, the Senate, and the executive branch saying, In the midterms, we could see the House turn. There’s about, what, 17 seats open on the Senate side. I might be wrong in those numbers a little bit, but we could see a flip of both of those. And then, of course, the The last two years of the president would just be an uphill battle for him because, you know, he’s just fighting the House and the Senate. But you may have that pendulum swing. And that’s what I was referring to. Don’t really know, Todd, because like I said, there’s a lot of things that the average person doesn’t know as to what’s going on behind the scenes. But it kind of feels that way, you know, just out there in the public right now.
SPEAKER 07 :
Boy, that’s a big question, and it’s a multi-part question, right, in terms of the things that we can control and where I think things are headed politically. I do have some inside information that I think maybe we can share today in this conversation, but, you know, I had a private practice in psychotherapy for 15 years, and I think the important thing in terms of to start with, we’ll work our way through that multi-part question. In terms of the things that you can control is to manage yourself. And that is to observe right now my, you know, I also have a background in mass communication and I have the ability to recognize a lot of propaganda and manipulation techniques that are being thrown at us. And that’s a little bit different conversation, but the best way that your audience can manage themselves. with all of the different psychological operations that are happening right now that we’re being bombarded with is to what I call observe, but don’t absorb. Watch the craziness happen before you, but don’t absorb it. Don’t internalize it. Don’t take it personally. And when you can do that and you can manage yourself and manage your own in most immediate environment, particularly within your own mind, that’s going to be the best way to go about that. And I’ll tell you that that really starts with prayer. When you can center yourself and you can get with the Holy Spirit and you can get with Jesus Christ and you can ask for the gift of wisdom and you can ask for the gift of discernment and you can stay calm and manage yourself and manage your immediate environment and your family appropriately, that is the single most important first thing that anybody can do. It’s something I practice on a regular basis where I find myself getting a little bit overwhelmed with all the information that I have, and I make it a point to sit down for a block of 20 to 30 minutes each day and just get grounded with the Holy Spirit. And that’s a great place to start. You know this better than I do, Bill, but there’s no political solution to a spiritual problem. And the more that we can all ground ourselves in the Holy Spirit, and the more that we can all individually repent, and we can take the log out of our own eye, the faster that our land can be healed. And so that’s the first thing that you can do, right? And then I know that you’ve covered in depth all of the other ways that you can, I’m sure, that you can prepare yourself for your family. And that’s another piece of mind. It doesn’t make you paranoid to be prepared, but It just means that you care. And by the way, psychologically speaking, with paranoia, there’s no rational point of origin. When we take a look around at all the evidence that we’re faced with in the world today, there’s plenty of rational and logical evidence that says that we should be prepared for what’s coming down the road. So technically, it’s not paranoia at all. It’s just being prudent.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right, right. The Bible talks about being watchmen, and I tell this to the church all the time. I says, think about that for a moment. You’re called to be a watchman. What is the watchman looking for? Well, he’s looking for a known threat, right? He’s not up there just casually going, well, let’s Let’s see what comes over the hill today. It’s watching for, hey, I know that something’s going to come, and I’m up here, and I’m watching for it, and I’m not caught by surprise. That’s the opposite of the thief in the night, right? And so we are to be called watchmen. We are to be observers, and that’s the number one. That’s what I tell people all the time, Todd, is the number one self-defense you can have is kind of the art of observation, right, that situational awareness.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yes.
SPEAKER 08 :
Of what’s going on around us and what’s happening. And then you can, you know, position yourself correctly to that situation. Through the things that we teach and the things that you have taught me through what you call fight IQ with the distance timing and the transition to the dominant angles and all those fun things, but they’re very much applicable.
SPEAKER 07 :
It applies to everything.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, to not only political, but also spiritual, too. It’s interesting because on Wednesdays nights, we’re doing a deep dive in Genesis. We just kicked off Genesis and spent a lot of time in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. And when you really understand what the curse is, what the temptation, the knowledge of the tree and good and evil, the knowledge wasn’t information, the knowledge, that word, that original Hebrew word means autonomy, which means you can self-proclaim what is right and wrong. And since then, That’s the problem, right? You’ve got the right thing. This is what’s the right way to go. You got the left thing. This is the right way to go. And the bottom line is, is just like with Cain and Abel, Cain was like upset with God because he offered a, you know, a sacrifice that he thought was good that God should accept. And God said, no, it’s my way or no pun intended, the highway. right? Jesus says in John chapter 14, I am the way, the truth, and the life, and that’s the only way. And so until, to your point earlier, until the right and the left get off of what they think is right, and we get onto the, hey, this is the right path, not defined by man, but defined by God, you’re going to be lost, right, Todd?
SPEAKER 07 :
Absolutely. Those are great words. And I would encourage the audience, um, if they are familiar with spiritual warfare, that this is the time. This is the time for you to get into the spiritual battle. And as we know, everything that affects the spiritual world affects the natural world, and everything that affects the natural world affects the spiritual world. But get into that spiritual battle if you’re familiar with it. If you’re not familiar with it, it’s time to get familiar with spiritual warfare. And that’s where the war is, actually, I would say, in my opinion, and I don’t know what the audience is going to think of this, but this is the way I see it. This is where the war is being won, and I do believe that we are winning that war. Something that I want to add on to what you were saying on being a watchman, when I was born again, the Lord cast me and gave me the commission as a watchman. and Ezekiel 33, 1 through 6 is what you’re referring to, and that’s not an easy commission. That’s a very difficult commission, and that’s almost like the special warfare, you know, special warfare division, special forces division of spiritual warfare, but I want to add to that, and feel free to jump on this too, Bill, if you want to, but To be a watchman doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re a prophet. The things that you see coming aren’t necessarily a thus saith the Lord, that everything that you say is correct. It’s your job to see the threats that are out there, and it’s your job to warn those around you of the threats that you see coming. And that’s the heavy part about being a watchman, right? Because if you don’t warn them and they perish, then their blood is on your hands.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right, right.
SPEAKER 07 :
So that’s why we take our role so seriously, both on the spiritual and on the physical end of things.
SPEAKER 08 :
And there’s two ways to look at that word prophecy. And most people think that it is the foretelling of future. But the problem is that’s not the Hebrew naming of prophecy. That’s more of the Greek or the Western culture of prophecy. The Hebrew prophecy is patterns and truth. And so we can look through the Bible and see pattern after pattern after pattern. And guess what, Todd? It’s the same patterns being played out right before us. We still got the same spirit of Jezebel. We still have all these things. And when you even go into Revelation, you see that ultimate rebellion, which is going to lose the battle. But that’s the progression. And nothing is new under the sun, we’re told. So it’s just pattern. Hebrew prophecy is pattern, pattern, pattern. And so being that watchman is calling out the patterns, the patterns that has been used since day one. And the number one tactic of the enemy is, right, I’m not going to tell you the truth. I’m going to bring disillusion to you and cause you to question what you’re seeing. It’s kind of like a disinformation. Did God really say that? Did God really say that, Eve, that you would surely die? So you see it’s deception. It’s deception. So Todd, I really like what you’re talking about. Give us some ideas of what we’re listening to maybe when we hear. And again, it doesn’t matter whether you’re right side or left side, right? Because the truth of the matter is, is we’re the one stuck in the middle of both of those. But tell us some of the patterns based on that, that we could see, or maybe we can recognize through some of the speech and some of the things that are being said that we can now recognize, you know, be the watchman and go, Hey, there it is. That’s what you’re hearing. And that’s what that is. I don’t know if you can share any examples of,
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, I wish we had about five or six hours, of course, and I’ll do the best I can to distill it down.
SPEAKER 08 :
Deep conversations.
SPEAKER 07 :
I want to say first that it’s important to understand that we are intentionally being bombarded with misdirection and misdirection from both the good guys and and the bad guys happening all the time, because that’s the art of war. It’s all about misdirection and deception and obfuscation. We’re put in a house of mirrors right now with all kinds of deceptions happening all around us. And I’ll tell you, as a person who has training in psychological warfare, that’s a way that you can brainwash the masses, but it’s also a way that you can un-brainwash the masses. So it’s a matter of what your perspective is going to be in terms of how you really want to look at that. And so that’s why I say it’s so important that we really ground ourselves in prayer and in truth. I’ll tell you in the natural what are some of the patterns that I see coming. On the economic side of things, let’s start with that, because the economic and the political side of things are happening differently. really, at the same time, and they’re really one and the same. And there’s a lot of misdirection that’s happening there, too. The first thing that we have to understand when it comes to economics is the strength of currencies, and as the Bible would call, just weights and measures. And we have never lived, Bill and I, I’m 55, and Bill, you’re 50 now, is that right?
SPEAKER 1 :
50, 51? 53. 53.
SPEAKER 08 :
I know I look younger than I am.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah. So, so, um, we, we were born immediately. The moment that we were born, um, we, the United States was taken, the U S dollar was taken off the gold standard.
SPEAKER 08 :
Right.
SPEAKER 07 :
Right. And going all the way back to 1977, right? It was in 71.
SPEAKER 08 :
It was in 71.
SPEAKER 07 :
Okay. In August of 1971, uh, When we when Nixon took us off the gold standard. And so we have never known in our entire lives and most of the generations here, even going back to it goes even further back to 1913. If you want to go even more goes back to 1871, but that’s a different conversation that we don’t have time for today. But the point is, we have never known what it’s like to live with sound money. We have never known what it’s like to live with a currency that was backed one for one by tangible commodities or by gold and silver. So we’ve been living under and with a fiat currency, and no fiat currency has ever lasted longer than 40 years. The exception to the U.S. dollar is we have been the global reserve currency, meaning the world was forced after World War II to use the dollar for trade. But now that’s changing. The world has stopped trading oil and dollars. In fact, Saudi Arabia stopped trading oil and dollars back, I believe it was November of last year. And so now the dollar is in serious trouble, and the Federal Reserve has no choice but to print more money and loan more of that money that they print to us. at interest. And so what we can start to anticipate here very soon is the end of the US dollar, not only as the global reserve currency, but even within our own trade, between ourselves, within the United States itself, we’re going to start to see really major events happen around our currency. We’re going to experience hyperinflation. So we need to be prepared for that. And whenever – this is all throughout history if you want to talk about a pattern. Whenever currencies have lost their values, they’ve lost its value while the morality of that culture has also proportionally lost its values as well. So we can start to see those –
SPEAKER 08 :
Hold that thought there, Todd. We got to catch a break here real quick. And when we come back, you can continue that thought. And then also maybe give our listeners some advice on, you know, is it Bitcoin? Is it gold? Is it silver? What that shoring or that preparedness ready currency might be for the future. All right. We’ll be right back. This is 560 KLZ.

SPEAKER 08 :
5 6 0 0 3 0 3 4 7 7 5 6 0 0. And if you have a question for Todd, we may be able to squeeze that in, but I know we got a lot going on. If you want to check out my website, it’s prep to protect CEO prep, the number to protect CEO. And you can register there for all of our IDS training, our gun classes. We can talk about generators back up. power that we can supply for your house and all those good things. All right, Todd, we were talking about the fiat currency and I got a couple of books and I can’t think of the name of them, but fiat currency. And there’s also the fiat medical system and the fiat foods. that I’ve been listening to, but you know, it seems to be a, be a hot word, if you will. And it really brings in the understanding of this is all a system. And you were continuing to talk about that. And then we were probably going to hopefully get to what we can do to kind of hedge ourselves against that.
SPEAKER 07 :
So, well, it’s interesting, isn’t it? Because it seems everything that we’re experiencing the world right now is via meaning it’s fake. It’s everything that we’re talking about is literally a counterfeit. And isn’t that the exact goal of the enemy in the fallen world that we’re living in is for us to live in a fake system and fake fiat, meaning that there’s nothing that is true? And isn’t it interesting that the enemy has us worshipping the money and what kind of symbolism do we literally have on the dollars that we hold in our wallets?
SPEAKER 08 :
Even social media, Todd, is stake lives that people are living. This is kind of continuing on.
SPEAKER 1 :
100%.
SPEAKER 07 :
So that being said, let’s talk about some things that people can do to help to protect themselves as the economy continues to deteriorate here, meaning specifically the monetary economy, the money itself, the dollar itself. First, I want to say that I’m not a financial advisor. However, I have been studying macroeconomics and monetary economics intensely for over 20 years. And I do have friends that are financial advisors and wealth managers. And a lot of my family, extended family, is in that field. And I tend to be the person that they call for input for managing very large portfolios. I’m not trying to boost myself, but my mind is just really good at processing large amounts of information and recognizing the patterns and trends. So I always want to say that, and I want to make sure that whoever’s listening knows that always take all of your decisions, but especially your financial decisions, in prayer and let the Holy Spirit be your true financial advisor. And my hope and prayer is that he will speak through me today to all of you to maybe offer some guidance. So I want to start by qualifying what I’m going to say that way. Okay, Bill? Gotcha.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, that’s important.
SPEAKER 07 :
All right. As the dollar continues to evaporate before our eyes, as its value continues to deteriorate, especially as they continue to lower interest rates, that means they have to print more money in order to compensate for that. That’s a complicated conversation. But the important thing is, from my perspective, is that we are getting out of the dollar and and that we are getting ourselves into some level of tangible asset. And what that means for you depends on you because everybody’s situation is so unique, right? But what that means is as you hold money in the bank, it’s just going to lose more value than it’s going to retain. So even if it means that you’re going to have your own chickens in your backyard so that you can have eggs, or your own rabbits or chickens so that you can have meat or that you’re growing your own food. That’s a tangible asset. That’s something that you can do. Or if you have larger amounts of money, maybe you might consider putting it into metal bullion, like gold and silver bullion that you actually have in your possession that you can trade with or you can have as a means of simply holding its value. Those who have been following it know that the spot price of metals has been going up astronomically. It’s been a little bit of a pullback here recently, but there’s been major, major increases in the spot prices of metals as of recently. That’s not the price of metals actually going up. That’s the value of the dollar going down other things. Maybe it’s farmland or machinery. Maybe it’s re maybe it’s real estate. And I’ll tell you as someone who does study this very intensely, there are digital assets that are, that are, a good option for some people. And I’m not going to tell you which ones that those are. That’s up for the public and the listeners to do their own research on and decide what’s going to be best for them. There’s a lot of misunderstandings about crypto and a lot of misunderstandings about digital assets and where that’s going. But that is a viable option for a lot of people as well.
SPEAKER 08 :
And when you say that having a good mixed portfolio, if you will, is really the way to go because a table that has many legs, you know, if one of their two of the legs get knocked out, you know, the table can still stand up. I equate, I’ve been changing my analogy lately with, you know, this kind of asset, you know, kind of distributing different types of portfolios. It’s like a fence, right? And it really came alongside. The idea of thinking of churches, right? You’re better off to have lots of little churches than you are to have one strong power. And the reason I say is because each individual fence post, as strong as it is, holds up the entire fence. Right. And you can create a perimeter if you follow along with my my picture here, a fence that goes around you with let’s let’s say one one fence post is crypto. One fence post is gold. One fence post is silver. One is an asset such as land. One is an asset such as, you know, you begin to name it. And all of a sudden now you’ve got this. this fence around you. Right. And, and, you know, most of my listeners know they may have forgotten. We get new listeners all the time, you know, how radio live radio is people tuning in at different times, but, but I have rabbits, I have chickens, I have, you know, greenhouse, I grow mushrooms inside. I’ve got indoor gardens. I’ve got all of that stuff, which we’re trying to put together and trying to help educate and teach people because you it’s not about me making money or it’s not about me being the one source, but it’s about the stronger collectively we are, the stronger as a unit that we are, right? I’m teaching people to stop being a liability on society and you can start being an asset where you are not a consumer, but you are now a provider. And a new saying that I’ve kind of picked up on lately, Todd is, Hey, don’t have a backup plan. Be the backup plan. I really like that.
SPEAKER 07 :
Fantastic analogy, Bill. I apologize for interrupting. I think there might be a little bit of a delay on the radio. Yeah, there is.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m always on the phone.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, that’s a really fantastic analogy. And diversification is really key. key right now. And there will be tangible assets that you have that are immediate, like we’ve been talking about, things that you can touch and use on a regular day-to-day basis, and some things that are going to be different parts of this forecast. But I feel very confident in saying that that having this type of diversification into tangible assets or even deflationary assets, meaning things that don’t automatically go down in value, but instead things that will automatically go up in value, depending on what your financial situation is, and it’s different for everybody. But the principles that Bill is talking about and that I’m describing here, those are the things that I’m going to strongly recommend to for people moving forward. Bill can probably cite the chapter and verse better than I can, but a wise man sees trouble and stays out of the way. We see the patterns coming, right? We see the patterns coming. And so now we can start to build our arc, so to speak. And we can prepare ourselves for that. When I was born again and Bill’s been to my little hobby farm here, that was what he told me. He said, I want you to have this land and I want you to build an arc on it. And so that’s the lifestyle that my wife and I have been living ever since, based on what the Lord has told us that He would like for us to do in preparation for moving forward.
SPEAKER 08 :
And not only that, Todd, but let’s just play this out, right? Let’s say that nothing ever does happen in our lifetimes. Let’s say it goes out. Have you really lost anything by doing what you’re doing? And I always tell people, no, absolutely not. My wife went to the store last night. She’s like, I feel like some steak. She called me at the store and said, three ribeye, $75. And this is at Walmart. And I’m like, oh, my gosh, holy cow. So she ended up only getting two, but still two steaks, 40 bucks. I mean, it is going up and up and up and up. And so, you know, there’s a point where, OK, maybe doomsday apocalypse doesn’t happen, but I don’t know who can sustain these food prices. Right.
SPEAKER 07 :
So now I’ve got my.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, no downside. Plus the health benefits, right, Todd?
SPEAKER 07 :
That’s right. There’s no downside. We could slice it and dice it all day long, but the simple answer is really there’s no downside. Now let’s take a look at what’s happening with SNAP benefits, and let’s take a look at what’s happening with food stamps and what’s happening on the welfare side of things happening right now. Those benefits have been shut off. And so now, right, so now we can start to take a look at how we can start to see crime and violent crime deteriorating as people’s basic day-to-day needs begin to become less and less available. Now let’s take the next step on top of that. You know, let’s think about the millions of illegals that cross the border and the during the previous administration. Well, we know from very reliable intelligence sources that a huge percentage of those that crossed that border during that time are not here to do good things within the United States. There are some very unsavory assets and sleeper cells that have crossed our border that are just waiting for orders to create chaos within the United States. And there’s a very good chance that the higher level operators within that group are going to go after infrastructure. And so that means what? There’s a very good chance that we’re going to begin to see a disruption in utilities and services. So the more self-reliant that we can be for ourselves and for our community in different ways, the more stable that we can keep the world around us, both in our immediate neighborhoods and our immediate homes and within our own minds and bodies and souls. But the world collectively as a whole, we are the salt and light of the earth, that we are the preservation and we are here to purify things. And that’s one of the very first ways that we can do it after prayer. And that ties directly into you know, what we’ve been talking about with monetary policy. That’s, I believe, one of the core reasons why we’re seeing this shutdown right now of our government. The real reason is, is because there’s going to be a transfer over to a whole new type of economy and monetary system. And that this is a part of, this is one of the steps that’s going to be necessary in order for that to happen.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah. And you got to remember too, people have a hard time with this. Again, it’s not right versus left. If you’re a believer, it’s the citizen of heaven versus the citizen of the earth. And even when you get down to right versus left, it becomes us against the state. Because I’m going to tell you, both sides, and I don’t care, I’ll probably ruffle some feathers here, but I don’t care. Both sides want a divided population because a divided population is a controlled population, Todd. And, you know, really neither one of them wants… you know, full power because they have no power if there’s full power. You know, and think about all those people, was it 42, 45 million that are on the SNAPS benefits? What if they would have taken the advice that we have given them today? They wouldn’t be so dependent upon the food stamps. But you know what? The problem is, is that government wants to create dependency on And then therefore, now you’re going to give them their vote because they need you, and it’s just crazy. And people are – I hate to say it. I’m going to say a four-letter word. Are you ready? People are afraid of work. I know. It was a bad language. Nobody wants to hear that anymore, Todd.
SPEAKER 07 :
You’re going to be canceled for that one, Bill.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m going to be canceled for staying at work.
SPEAKER 07 :
One of the things that you brought up earlier on the show was the elections. And so I’m going to share some information with the public listening for their consideration. But I have some very reliable sources that have shared some information with me. First, I want to say this. I know that you’re in Colorado. I want to say this out loud. that I am going to declare and decree in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that Tina Peters be released from prison. She’s a political prisoner in the state of Colorado. She did her job with valor and with honor. She exposed the corruption that happened within the 2020 election. And for that very reason, she’s being held in prison to this very day. And I am declaring and decreeing in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that Tina Peters be released from prison immediately. Okay. The public will start to see very soon. The public will start to see very soon that the 2020 election, the fraud of the 2020 election, and other elections before that, including 71 other countries around the world, that there was a system that was put in place to throw those elections into a very specific direction. And what Tina Peters discovered during her investigations was the Rosetta Stone were the core principles for how those elections were being manipulated digitally. So I want to say that right now, the public can start to anticipate that. And it also ties directly into one of the main reasons why we are going into Venezuela. Because a lot of the hacking and the digital shenanigans that were happening took place out of Venezuela, and Serbia. So keep an eye out. I’m going to tell the public to keep an eye out for some things that are going to be coming out down the road that will expose those things. And I want to be careful that I’m not saying too much there. But another thing that we can start to anticipate to happen soon is for the Trump administration and President Trump himself to create an executive order that will formally reform our process for elections. Soon you will see us going back to paper ballots where the results of those ballots will be happening on the same day. And there will be a very limited scope when it comes to who is allowed to have mail-in ballots. And you’re going to have to be able to prove that you’re a U.S. citizen. and some other factors that will be involved with that. But I think the public will start to see some big changes happening on the side of reform when it comes to our election process. And that you’ll also start to see some major things that happened in the past because fraud vitiates everything. And some of the things that were part of that fraudulent process will undo a lot of the political events that took place And rulings that took place in the United States over the course of a special many years back, but especially the last 10 years. So I think we can anticipate some major changes happening. And I think that it’s only prudent for us to be optimistic cautiously optimistic and prepared for the worst, but we also have to allow for the best. And I think that’s going to be an important part of some of the things that we can anticipate moving forward because we have to have hope. We have to have optimism, too. And I think that we can be very optimistic on that front.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, we definitely got to keep pressing forward. You know, that’s the danger of sometimes I feel like in my communication of, Hey, there’s things you can control and there’s things you can’t control that it can give the attitude of, well, Bill’s just given up. He’s given up hope. And I’m saying, no, I’m not just going to become overzealous on things I can’t control. I’m going to be overzealous on the things I can control. So it’s time for a break. And when we come back, I have a question for you in regards to the voting and how that would look state by state, because I’m a little confused on, I thought the states were responsible for running their own election and And how can the executive branch dictate to the state what they’re going to do? So we’ll address that when we come back. So we’ll be back in a few after this break.

SPEAKER 08 :
And welcome back. Today we are with Mr. Todd Fossey, the Grand Poobah, as I call him, Master Yoda of IDS, Integrated Defense Strategies. Todd, if anybody wanted to learn anything more about you, how would they find out that information?
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, I mean, I’ll be honored if you check me out on social media, Todd Fossey on Instagram and Facebook. And you can also check out Integrated Defense Strategies on all social media platforms. And then if you’re interested in our online training, IDSCitizenDefender.com, and that’ll give you some additional information.
SPEAKER 08 :
Awesome. And then on a side note of that, if you’re interested in any local training with what Todd provides, I am an actual certified instructor, and I work under John Hallett out of Rocky Mountain Self-Defense, and he is also a certified instructor, and you can come down and visit us in Castle Rock, and we can get you taken care of personally as well. All right, so my question there for you, Todd, is, I know you said that the administration, you’ve got information, they’re planning on restructuring the elections in time for the midterm so that there’s no shenanigans happening. My question is, I thought each state was responsible for their own voting and their own systems, and then they submit to the national level what the results are. So how can, at the executive level, tell every state what to do?
SPEAKER 07 :
Well, do you remember when I said that foreign countries were involved with the rigging of U.S. elections?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yes, Venezuela.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, Venezuela, Serbia, that’s where the servers and the hackers were positioned.
SPEAKER 08 :
Todd, is that the Dominion software?
SPEAKER 07 :
That’s one of them. That’s one of them. It’s a much more complex system, but Dominion is a part of it. Yeah. there are other nation states that were directly involved with not just the 2020 election in the United States, but 71 other countries, but also going many elections back. When a foreign country is involved with the manipulation of an election, specifically within the United States, that’s considered an act of war. And so because that’s an act of war, the president can declare a state of emergency. And when the president can declare a state of emergency because it’s an act of war, then that means that the U.S. government goes under a special process called continuity of government or COG. And through that process, that gives the authority to the federal government to do things like reform elections. and supervise elections until they can give that authority back to the states. But right now, let’s face it, the states are – the state elections are – and the local elections are corrupted. Like, let’s just take a look at what happened this week. I think you’re also going to find out that those elections were also rigged.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, so – Let me circle back on something you made a point on, because one of the things being challenged right now is the Trump attack in the boats, the smugglers. And they’re saying that if that’s an act of war, then you need Congress approval on that, that you have to get that. Is that the same case if he was to declare the voting interference act of war, they wouldn’t need Congress? Nope. Not under continuity of government.
SPEAKER 07 :
The cognitive government is a very different process. It’s much closer to a soft level of martial law where now the military is managing things temporarily until things can get cleared up.
SPEAKER 08 :
And martial law scares everybody, right and left, by the way.
SPEAKER 07 :
The term scares everybody, but we can think of lots of cases where the public would love to see some martial law. It’s all going to be a matter of what is the benevolence of the person who’s in charge of it. Like if we see 17 to 20 cities being attacked simultaneously within the United States, do you think that you’re going to want the military to intervene? And by the way, why are we seeing the military being distributed to so many major cities around the United States right now? Yeah, I was just going to make that comment. In preparation for things to come.
SPEAKER 08 :
So we think it’s the ICE raids and things like that, but it’s much deeper than that is what you’re alluding to.
SPEAKER 07 :
Yeah, the positioning of that, I mean, obviously it helps with street crime and the homeless problem and the situation with ICE and all those different types of things, but that’s just cover for a much deeper operation.
SPEAKER 08 :
Gotcha. To some degree, even the U.S., historically speaking, has been blamed for meddling in other issues you know, nation’s elections. I mean, everybody kind of has their own best interest, you know, in mind here. And, you know, we don’t want a certain president or a certain dictator or a certain whatever you, you need to get into play. So this is not anything new. This is something that historically has happened globally since I don’t know how long time began. And that was the, that was the CIA.
SPEAKER 07 :
And yeah, The CIA is supposed to operate outside of the United States, but I’m here to tell you the CIA has been operating within the United States, and you’ll see very soon who was the director of the CIA at the time of the 2020 election, John Brennan. And now who is under indictment right now? John Brennan. Yeah, yeah. And all the indictments that you’re seeing with the Russiagate collusion hoax, all of these things are all interconnected with one another. And John Brennan will be along with all the others with directly impeding the 2020 election as well as several other things that will come out in the wash.
SPEAKER 08 :
Lots of things. As a watchman, you’re just up there pointing it out, revealing the patterns, revealing the truth out there. So what does that mean as we kind of come to a close? We’ve got maybe about seven or eight minutes left here. kind of circling back, what does that mean for the context of this station? And what can we do to get ready? We’ve kind of talked about the diversification. We talked about, you know, assets such as gold. And, you know, I always struggle with gold a little bit because, you know, you got a gold bar and how do you, what do you do with that? If you need to buy something, you know, how do you chip that off or whatever? But I always think about gold bars are great.
SPEAKER 07 :
Think about gold and gold bars as a way of, of wealth preservation or the purchase of a larger asset when fiat currency no longer has value or silver is something that you can trade for smaller items. They both are a great preservation of wealth, but during a time of collapse, those are both really great things to have in hand for sure.
SPEAKER 08 :
It also helps with whatever the new established currency is, because then you can turn that gold into, if that’s what you’re going to do, you can rebuy the new established currency with that precious metal.
SPEAKER 07 :
But yeah, what are some other things outside of that? The new currency in the future will still be the dollar. It’ll just be a different kind of dollar that will be backed by tangible commodities like Other things, in addition to all the things that we’ve already talked about, be prepared to protect hearth and home physically. But don’t go too far from home. Protect your neighborhood. Stay close to home because the last thing that you want to do is be misconstrued if you’re going too far away as an enemy combatant. You want to stay where people will recognize you and that you will recognize the people in your immediate community. There are very few people listening to this broadcast who are qualified to do more than that or who will want to do more than that. So be prepared to literally protect and preserve Hearth’s home and your immediate surroundings.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, you know, that’s a great point. I actually heard somebody talking about that earlier this week because, you know, the trend for a long time was, was bug out, get out of Dodge. And in fact, John and I just talked about that last week, you know, based on my hunting trip, do I go up into the mountains? Do I go East where I go? And it’s actually, I heard somebody say, it’s easier to defend your neighborhood. It’s easier to defend your home than it is to defend, you know, a camp in the wilderness or whatever it may be. So that was a good point. So I’m glad you kind of made that statement. It’s like, you know, we should be focused more about bugging in and, then maybe getting out there because now we’ve lost everything.
SPEAKER 07 :
Absolutely. And then have secondary and tertiary options. If you have to, if you have to evacuate other places that you can go, if you have to evacuate. Yeah. And that’s the strategic relocation like that is a, is a, is a whole shell into itself. Right. But the main, the main points are what are most important for people who are listening. I’m very optimistic about the future, but I think that we’re going to see dark and scary times. happening for a brief period. I don’t think it’ll be too prolonged, but for a brief period, be prepared to be as self-reliant for yourself and those around you as you possibly can be, and then stay optimistic about what’s on the other side of that. I think that the system that we have now has to be broken before it can be replaced.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah. And it’s, it’s, it’s about hedging. You may not replace everything, right, Todd, you’re not going to replace. And I tell people all this, there really is no such thing as the true self-sufficient. Those are very rare. You’re not going to replace everything. You’re, you’re going to need gas. You’re not going to be the refinery. So, you know, One of the biggest things that I think you realize outside of once you get the concept of, hey, it’s not about me heading to the hills or heading to a cornfield in Nebraska, but it’s establishing my neighborhood, establishing my community, and getting like-minded people that you’re in agreeance with. And I’ve got the rabbits, and maybe the guy down the road’s got the goats, and maybe the guy on the other side of town’s got the got the pigs or whatever it may be. And then we start to be a community that sustains itself through one another. I think that that’s a huge thing that we often forget about.
SPEAKER 07 :
Absolutely. I couldn’t agree more. And while we do that, you know, there will be a lot of people who will be afraid. They’ll be very scared. So the more calm and assertive that we can be, the more that we can, the better our problem solving will be and everything will just go a whole lot smoother for everybody else. That’s the main thing. And it’s an important reason why we prepare, right? That way we don’t have to scramble to play catch up. We can stay calm. We know that we have our preparations in place. And now we can have our mind focused on bigger problem solving as opposed to being, you know, really concerned about just hand to mouth. We can think bigger picture a little bit, and we have the ability to lead others because we’ve taken care of our immediate needs.
SPEAKER 08 :
Absolutely, absolutely. Well, it’s been great having you. What a wonderful conversation. I’m sure John’s going to be sad he missed it. Maybe he’ll listen. I don’t know. He’s a pretty busy guy, but he’ll be back with us again next week, and maybe he’ll pick it up and we’ll continue on. I love the thought of the modern-day Noah. That’s what we’re called to be. Todd, thanks for your time, and we’ll talk to you soon.
SPEAKER 07 :
God bless, everybody.
