Miami International Airport was shut down for several hours after screeners found a suspicious package belonging to a scientist with a prior conviction for shipping bubonic plague. CNN reported the incident as a potential pipe bomb threat, though it was later cleared by the bomb squad. The hosts suggest the event was a staged "setup" to coincide with National Preparedness Month and instill fear of biological warfare.

The federal government has designated September as National Preparedness Month, launching the Ready.gov website with various public service announcements. The hosts critique the "poorly acted" video series featuring a family preparing for disasters like toxic train derailments. They express skepticism toward the Citizen Corps and Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT), labeling them as government-run "grassroots" initiatives.
