SINPO=23222.

426- OM talking.
427- News clips regarding Black Lives Matters, Minneapolis protests, etc.
428- Music, dramatic and instrumental.
429- Slow piano music, and then OM speaks. Child's voice reciting pledge of allegiance. Slow piano music continues. OM speaks about revolution, Wuhan corona virus pandemic. America is institutionally unable to make decisions. We've had pandemics before. What's going on is worse than the disease itself. Ulterior motives, organized, orchestrated and premeditated actions by Communists. Mention of KGB agents in the 1970s. Great brainwashing process. A demoralized people and state. What is up is down, what is left is right, what is good is bad. Many disturbing developments happening. President Trump as Commander in Chief. Not MAGA, MAMA, Make America Moral Again. Disgusting destabilization.
445- OM , I am Michael (Something), mention of patriot maybe?
445- "Sober" by Tool.
448- OM speaks briefly, maybe an ID? and then "Sober" by Tool continues.
450- Clip of Samuel L. Jackson saying, "I strongly suggest...that you wake the F--- up!" followed by SSTV.

Thanks for the broadcast. E-QSL if you can.
