And again, rings defined by defense scientists. But before that, you know, the bomb goes off. Then there's this blast wave that's like several hundred miles an hour, pushing out like a bulldozer, knocking everything down, bridges, buildings. I mean, you can read FEMA records manuals about what the rubble will be like.
You're talking about 30 feet deep rubble as the buildings go over, six, seven, eight, 10 miles out. That speaks nothing of the megafires that will then ensue. So once all these people die and third degree radiation burns, did you even know there was such a thing as fourth degree radiation burns, right? We're talking about the wind ripping the skin off people's faces many miles out.

And then you have a sucking action, right? Everyone is, or many people are familiar with what the nuclear mushroom cloud looks like, and it's STEM. is actually creates, and again, this is from physicists who advise the Defense Department on this, the sucking up into the nuclear stem, 300 mile an hour winds. You're talking about people miles out getting sucked up into that step.

When you see the mushroom cloud, Lex, that is in a nuclear war, that would be people. Those are like the remnants of people and of things in the cloud. 30, 40 mile wide mushroom cloud blocking out the sun. And that speaks nothing of the radiation poisoning that follows.

And by the way, those details were given to me by Obama's FEMA director, Craig Fugate, who was in charge of... So FEMA is the agency in America that... plans for nuclear war. Okay. And what Fugate said to me was, you know, Annie, we plan for asteroid strikes. These are called low probability, but high consequence events.

And FEMA is the organization that, you know, when there's a hurricane or an earthquake or a flood, FEMA steps in and they do what's called population protection planning. They take care of people. And what Fugate told me is after a nuclear strike, after a bolt out of the blue attack, he used those terms, there is no population protection. Everyone's dead.

And he means that metaphorically, but also kind of more literally, because he just said at that point, you just hope that you stalked Pedialyte.

I can't imagine that not happening. I think that's why people love post-apocalyptic television shows and films, because they see that. And then, of course, there's always one great charismatic person who's trying to restore morality. And these are great narratives that people like to tell themselves in the world of science fiction. But what we're dealing with is science fact in this scenario.
