Doesn’t it seem as if the ignoble nobles running our country into the ground are working overtime to dump extra loads of misery before the year ends? Now that they’ve plunged the country into an energy and heating crisis by tilting at “climate change” windmills, coal was too valuable to waste on these scrooges’ Christmas stockings. Let them survive on frozen wind turbines and snowdrift-covered solar panels!
While I have done my best to celebrate the Christmas season and ignore the commie curmudgeons bah-humbug-ing all around, it has felt as if government-worshiping Krampus creatures have been let loose (or are they trans-Krampus, demon-worshiping leftists wearing antlers and spreading Marxist hate?). Consider the parade of horribles unleashed during just the last few weeks:
Congress passed a two-trillion-dollar spending monstrosity that looks like little more than a long list of bribes and IOUs come due. The same Uniparty Republicans that could never find spare change for President Trump’s border wall have seen fit to fund every leftist fever pitch imaginable. Scrutinizing the 4,155 pages of omnibus filth and its 3,213 Democrat earmarks, writer Deroy Murdock bluntly concludes that “Mitch McConnell transformed the Senate GOP into a wishing well for Democrats.”
Handicapping incoming House Republicans’ budgetary powers for the next year, the exercise in printing and burning U.S. dollars (and exacerbating inflation) protects the borders of foreign countries all over the world, while going out of its way to make sure America’s are left wide open. Manchurian McConnell defends sending another forty-five billion dollars to Ukraine as “morally right,” while Americans from coast to coast are struggling to survive unchecked inflation, unaffordable food and fuel prices, crumbling infrastructure (actual bridges and roads, not the “reparations” and “climate change” hooey leftists now define as “infrastructure”), unguarded borders, the further impoverishment of once-prosperous blue-collar towns, an emotionally-crippling rise in suicides and fentanyl-related overdoses, COVID-1984-initiated wealth destruction, and the prospect of a looming monster recession (which we entered months ago but must not acknowledge — silence, citizen!).
I nearly flew out of my chair when I heard the backstabbing Turtle (flanked by his Uniparty Republican Old Guard) tell reporters, “Providing assistance for the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians, that’s the number one priority for the United States right now, according to most Republicans. That’s sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment.” Which “Republicans” feel that way — the Democrat-supporting RINOs who hate actual Republican voters or the ones who have already been paid off with quid-pro-quo windfalls to their campaign war chests, family-run political action committees, and favorite self-serving “charities”? I am not surprised that McConnell is willfully blind to the real “challenges confronting the country”; I am surprised that his Uniparty corruption and disdain for normal Americans are so robust that he’d happily spill the beans to the whole world! McConnell and all who rally by his side sell out America for personal gain and will continue to “fundamentally transform” this nation into another failed totalitarian Marxist State.
Elon Musk’s “Twitter Files” confirm that the platform is primarily a Deep State tool for psychologically manipulating and censoring public opinion. After President Trump’s 2016 victory shocked the cloistered “ruling class,” the FBI dedicated an 80-strong team of agents to monitor and influence Twitter (and who knows how many more interference agents to do the same elsewhere on social media), and the rest of the Intelligence Community got straight to work using the FBI censorship team as a weapon for mass psychological warfare (including blacklisting, deplatforming, and demonetizing any speakers adverse to government interests) against the American people.
To no one’s surprise, Twitter and bureaucratic agents of the State conspired to suppress COVID information and silence dissenting points of view that contradicted official U.S. government policy “narratives.” FBI Trump-Russia-collusion-hoaxer-turned-Twitter-executive Jim Baker argued that President Trump violated Twitter policy (thereby deserving suspension and language control) for tweeting just before the 2020 election that he felt better than ever after having recovered from COVID and urging Americans to be resilient and unafraid! (For Big Government control mechanisms to work, Americans must be kept in a permanent state of fear!)
Brit Hume has digested the tranche of “Twitter Files” thus far released and dispassionately concludes that the purpose of the secretive relationship between Twitter and the U.S. government is perfectly clear: censorship. Yet even amid the revelation of these grotesque violations of the First Amendment, V-un-IP V.P. Kamala Harris still demands that social media companies spread Democrats’ propaganda in the name of “protecting our democracy.” And while the U.S. government censors American citizens, it has been caught paying foreign reporters to push climate apocalypse doomsaying across the globe!
With the destruction of America’s territorial sovereignty almost complete and millions of illegal aliens streaming into the interior, the Department of Homeland Security (specializing in its opposite) has issued a “gag order” restricting agents from telling Americans the truth about just how lawless our lawless border has become.
The forced mRNA injections have caused so many injuries, miscarriages, and “sudden deaths” that now even once-prominent proponents of universal “vaccination” are ringing alarm bells (too little, too late) in their horror.

The recent midterms proved that U.S. elections are now just ballot pump-n-dumps in which Uniparty operatives simply print scores of ballots, fill them out, ignore signature verification requirements, and collect fraudulent “victories.”
As if official Washington didn’t have enough money-laundering operations already filling its coffers, the criminals running the government have also been nonchalantly accepting payoffs from a child crypto-king washing billions of dollars from investor accounts into PACs, Ukraine War kickbacks, non-governmental organizations, philanthropic shell companies, and anywhere else accounting trails disappear.
In but one example of education curricula across the country attempting to brainwash children into accepting their fate as automatons controlled by an all-knowing totalitarian government, climate science teachers in the state of Washington have been instructed to prioritize “emotion” over “rational thinking” in their lesson plans and to explore the roles of “sexism in science” and “abuse of power” — in other words, to scare children into believing their planet is dying in a few short years and to indoctrinate their tiny captives into rejecting scientific achievements made by white males.
Finally, the Biden administration lied about how many jobs have been created; blue-state hellholes are reimposing mask mandates; influential people are openly accusing the CIA of having participated in the assassination of President Kennedy; and Congress released its farcically unconstitutional J6 report attempting to keep Trump from office — signaling clearly how much D.C. fears his 2024 re-election.

For a look at what evil heads our way in the New Year, take a glance at the liberty-crushing goose-stepping of our Western allies:
The World Economic Forum’s subsidiary Dutch government has begun an unjust expropriation of thousands of farms under the unscientific pretense of fighting “climate change” as a means for taking more control of the world’s food supply and eventually squeezing desperately starving peasants into submission. The European Union has moved forward with new carbon regulations that will necessarily lead to the future imposition of a personal carbon credit system under which all citizen activity is tracked, recorded, and scrutinized.
New Zealand has released an official guide for turning in potential “terrorists” who dare to oppose government policies. And as further evidence that freedom of thought is under attack throughout the West, U.K. police officers arrested a woman around Christmas for silently praying outside an abortion facility.
I’m ready to put 2022 in the rearview mirror. Let’s gear up for the fights ahead.
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.
