With the recent news that Joe Biden has tested positive for the Wu Flu, speculation is once again running rampant that he is about to be replaced. And since it is so unimaginable that the thoroughly buffoonish Kamala Harris could ever hold the Nation’s highest office, every other possibility is being floated. Unfortunately, all of this discussion remains as thoroughly wrongheaded as it has been from the beginning of the totally corrupted and choreographed 2020 campaign season. As such it holds the potential for great harm to America.
Too many Americans (and that now even includes a disturbing number of Patriots/Conservatives) have mindlessly and reflexively embraced a couple of dangerous notions. First, they accede to the lie that Joe Biden is “president” as a consequence of being duly elected. Second, they treat him as if he’s actually in control of anything at the highest levels of government. The fallacy of both of these ideas isn’t merely cosmetic. Their ramifications are truly dire.
If anyone in America is willing to regard Biden as “president” under any pretence, whether it is an attempt at expedient discussion of the “more relevant” issues, out of “respect for the office,” or some other platitude, they must by default agree to the premise that once an election is stolen, however flagrantly and illegally, everyone is thereafter compelled to accept the results. That is not the stuff of a genuine democratic process, but instead reflects the worst qualities of tinhorn despotism. It presumes that those who can wield force to gain control are thereafter deemed “legitimate” in holding power and in their words and actions. America, under such dominion is finished as the land of the free and home of the brave.
The whole concept of government that “derives its just power from the consent of the governed” begins with an understanding that those in high office have gained the lawful approval of the populace they lead. Clearly, that did not happen in November of 2020. So to simply skip forward and continue the scam will in no way return things to a semblance of normalcy, but will instead cement the despotic acquisition of power, and the inevitable loss of freedom, from that point forward. Why would any authoritarian regime simply decide to relinquish its ultimate obsession, that being its ability to control the masses with no accountability?
Since the Biden Cabal officially wormed its way into the White House in January of 2021, it has been relentlessly dismantling all of the defining cornerstones of our great Nation, from our sovereignty, to our security, to our prosperity, justice and freedom. This Cabal is clearly not a beneficent leader with our best interests in mind. And it is beyond foolish to expect it to spontaneously morph into such a thing out of its own good intentions.
The second absurd premise that too many Americans automatically accept is that Ol’ Joe is, in any capacity, actually the decision maker at the top of the heap. Those pulling his strings are happy for him to take heat for the disastrous consequences of their hard left policy, as long as they can continue calling the shots. Their primary concern with him is to prevent him from stumbling and bumbling too badly. And it is to our enormous detriment that the Nation overwhelmingly goes along with the ruse.
On a daily basis, reports from left and right discuss “What Joe Biden thinks…” or “How Joe Biden feels…” on one policy matter after another, as if he has even the slightest grasp of what is going on. This flimsy charade of a functioning chief executive regularly verges on imploding, but is then bolstered by the absolute shamelessness of leftist assertions that he is in complete control of his faculties, and of the country. Many invertebrates on the right, fearing mockery and attacks, go along with the script to some degree. And even when they occasionally voice their tepid criticism, the scam works just fine for the left. An “operational” government can declare itself to be the highest authority, even in the midst of a few bumps and bruises.
Indeed that facade is fully capable of collapsing in on itself at any moment’s notice. And that is where America is falling into a huge setup. The leftists who are running things have no innate affinity for Biden. They wouldn’t shed a single tear if they had to suddenly ditch him, any more than are they concerned at how he’s being pushed and prodded along his stumbling way now. But if that situation eventuates, you can be sure that their last usage of Ol’ Joe will be to dump all over him as the focus of every gripe from every unhappy American.
Believing Biden was the author of such bad policy gives them the opening for a “new beginning” once he’s out of the way. Insistence on a “Honeymoon” grace period for their replacement puppet is absolutely guaranteed, thus providing an extended window of opportunity to continue wreaking even more irreparable damage on America. At some point, our side needs to figure out that the suffering and hardship inflicted across this land are absolutely intentional. And leftists will never stop until they are stopped.
The thrust of our efforts against them must be directed at their entire lying corrupt, DNC/Fake News axis, and not merely at a single individual who can easily be replaced with another while their vile agenda remains intact. Otherwise, we can be absolutely sure that this is how they will slither out of being held responsible for the mess they are making. America is not suffering from the missteps of a single hapless individual, but from a treasonous, full-scale war being waged by a fully coordinated leftist malignancy in our midst, of which Biden actually only plays a very small part.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
