"Holy crap!" my husband exclaimed.
"What!? What's going on?" I responded, peering over his shoulder at the flight tracking map on his screen.
"Usually there are no more than three military refueling tankers flying over the United States on any given night. I got to ride on one when I was a teen in Civil Air Patrol," he said. "But look! Tonight there are eleven refueling tankers in the air simultaneously. What the hell is going on!?!"
What indeed.
If military air traffic gets your motor going, your go-to guy is "MonkeyWerx" aka "MilSpecOpsMonkey." His profile describes him as a "Christian, Prayer Warrior, For God and Country, USAF Spec Ops Veteran, Texan, Aerospace and Defense Guru" and more specifically, "third generation military veteran who has spent more than thirty years in the aerospace and defense industry working on advanced weapons programs." That's good enough for me.
For the past three years, MonkeyWerx has been following military air traffic above the US, writing about it and making YouTube videos once a week...until now. Now he makes videos almost daily because there's just so damn much going on!
Military air traffic above the continental United States has quadrupled (at least!) since MonkeyWerx started his YouTube channel and he's quick to remind us that's only the air traffic we're allowed to see. The increase can't be simply explained away by bringing our men and women in uniform home from overseas so the question on everyone's lips is, "What the *$&@%!$# is going on!?!" MonkeyWerx writes, "What does it all mean? I am looking at this from three different possible scenarios:
People involved in the voting fraud are being pursued
Members of the terrorist organization(s) BLM and ANTIFA are being pursued and/or human traffickers
A combination of both."
His 152,700 Twitter followers are the "Digital Soldiers" General Flynn talks about with boots on the ground in every corner of this nation, providing info on what they're observing in their own backyards. Sometimes they even catch photos...when they're phones aren't suddenly and mysteriously disabled from taking pics!
Christy writes, "A flight of C130s is usually an operation, not an exercise."
D. E. Parrish wrote, "The C130s...if they didn't put boots on the ground, they sure pretended to."
Stillpoint Storm Watch wrote, "A friend in LA says there's hundreds of military vehicles along the LA River."
Arctic Blue chimed in with, "Never seen anything like it in twenty four years service. Not even in combat zone."
Suzy Qster reported that, "My daughter lives very close to Nellis [Air Force Base] called me freaking out this morning says there's so many huge planes landing there and shaking her house." So apparently not business as usual at Nellis assuming Suzy's daughter has lived there for awhile.
But others pooh-poohed it as merely the Air Force's Weapons School Integration training (WSINT) "simulating near-peer adversaries such as Russia and China." Drills, drills, drills. Everything can be explained away by drills, drills, drills. Robin Sage training for Special Forces Qualification began on December 4th. WSINT continues through December 10th. But as MonkeyWerx is quick to point out, they seem to have a real affinity to flying to-and-from locations known for being black works and prisons. Places like "the spa" aka Guantanamo Bay. Michael and I also particularly noticed how thick the aircraft were above states where election fraud is being hotly contested: Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada.
Remember back on 11/13 when I told you the US had raided and seized servers in Frankfurt, Germany? That article received so many comments saying I was certifiably insane for believing such bunk...until it became common knowledge.
But it gets even better. Supposedly multiple sources have confirmed that the CIA's Gina Haspell was on-site in Frankfurt during the raid and wounded in the fracas as were, reportedly, five of the good guys. Might be true, might not be true but patriot geeks who are addicted to the flight maps can confirm there was a flight out of Frankfurt to GITMO that day which jives with the rumor that Gina began "singing like a canary" on that flight. The same day, Sidney Powell is reported to have visited Gitmo for two hours via another flight.
See? Flight tracking can be fun! Downright addictive. Gives patriots a way to be personally invested in history as it unfolds.
But if you watch the military air traffic long enough, there are two unavoidable conclusions that keeps pushing until your brain feels shoved. Number One: There may need to be a brief period of Martial Law while the Swamp is drained under the 1807 Insurrection Act.
How do you catch shoplifters? First you let 'em steal, then you catch 'em. (Unless you're my rich Aunt Dotty, then you just let her steal all she wants, ring up what she steals and send the bill to her rich husband. True story!)
How do you catch election thieves? First you let 'em commit fraud, then you catch 'em.
Number Two: We may be preparing for war on our soil. Do you really think China shelled our $400,000,000 for Dominion and will take a casual la-dee-da attitude towards recouping on its investment!?! I don't think so but I pray I'm wrong!
We've known for years the Chinese military were massing down in Mexico and up around Vancouver Island. They reportedly own seaports in Canada, thousands of acres in Texas as well as land in Florida and Arizona. Despite my deep-seated loathing for looking on the dark side and especially those intensely annoying know-it-all make-fire-with-a-toothpick preppers on YouTube, yeah, it may be time to lay in those some flour, sugar, salt and yeast...and learn how to use them! Bread making is deceptively difficult but I've made every possible bread-making mistake so you don't have to!(Click here for how-to!)
Teddy Roosevelt said, "Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground." Good advice but let's update it. "Keep your eyes on the flight tracking map and your emergency radio handy." God forbid but you may need it.

I believe your right!!
Well, I can say for a fact, I heard 2 different refueling ops talking to ATC during a 2 hour flight back from Florida, on Sunday the 6th, and some A-10’s going to the range.
Very interesting post Lenora. 8>)
Respectfully disagree. When I came upon FR in 1996 sometimes all that were posted were ‘vanities’, essays about current events. They were welcomed because the alternative was mainstream media pasture feces.
There were many times when the only replies in a thread were me and JImRob or some other FReeper discussing the merits of a post. And then, when the corporate copyright lawyers came after JimRob, there was for some time almost no alternative to original content.
I believe we should welcome reasoned analysis, give helpful feedback and encouragement so that these voices grow and multiply and take off beyond this forum.
I’d guess first that it’s guys and crews, active and reserve, getting in missed mandatory training hours for the year after a summer of pandemic delays.
btrl
I guess Antifa brass figures overrunning Seattle’s Third Precinct trained em up enough to beat NATO.
Get some rest, Gina. You look tired.
Welcome to FREEREPUBLIC
WHAT is coming though?
Because of the lack of success in reversing this past election, people are grasping at any sign that something is being done.
I noticed a decent amount of fighter activity undergoing some high-power maneuvering yesterday - we have no fighter stationed at the local base.
Didn’t think anything of it except how I love the sound and feel of military power afterburners shaking up the air.
"It", yes. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
"The pearl is in the liver."
What is/are the links for tracking I should know? Thanks!
FEDERAL FISCAL year ends on Sept 30 each year. Not calendar year end.
Thank you for that background and perspective on FR. Understanding what this site is, exactly, has been a challenge.
I stumbled upon it when someone posted my Trump Is Not A Malignant Narcissist article here and, for some silly reason, perhaps because of the name of the site, assumed I was among like-minded friends. Some are, some aren’t!
If I’d expected FR to be just another forum full of trolls, I wouldn’t have been blindsided by the ferocity of the trolls on this site.
If this site were better moderated, and the trolls put on ice, it would be a much pleasanter place and more people would be apt to linger, share and donate. But with the level of toxicity that’s allowed under the euphemism of “hazing”...a lot of good people leave as soon as they’ve found this site and take their contributions elsewhere.
Really sad. The site has so much potential.
Agreed.
I can’t account for the trolls— whether they’re really conservative and mean for FR to succeed, or they’re leftists messing with us.
There are some self-appointed nannys here who complain about anything original in one breath and also about the cursed ‘mainstream media’ in the next. You can’t silence original voices and complain about ‘the media’.
I don’t know what’s to be gained by shouting down someone o our side (ie you) who is honestly trying to make sense of what we are seeing. I guess it’s self-flattering to some here to take on the role of arbiter and nanny. I take them on when I see them— I wish others would do the same,
In any case, I would encourage you to keep writing, here if you can stand it and anywhere else you can get a forum.

Nice write up! Thanks for posting the whole thing here. Don’t mind the trolls. I’ve been looking for info on this increase in traffic. I wonder if this has anything to do with pre-positioning air assets to distribute vaccine.
