What can I do? (Laying the Foundation)

This is the beginning of the “practical” part. This practical part is also broken down into two areas; 1) the learning, 2) the doing. The ‘learning’ part can be fun and accomplished pretty quickly if you have the time…and to a lesser degree, if you have the money.

As I’ve documented many times through my decades of experience in professional incident and emergency management there are 7 Common basic threats/risks to every emergency, disaster, or grid-down event. They are:

  1. Violence
  2. Injury or Sickness
  3. Poor/No Communications
  4. Poor/No Organization
  5. Dehydration
  6. Exposure
  7. Starvation

So these are the areas, the only areas, you need to worry about and concentrate on when it comes to the practical part of prepping. Why? because it covers all the bases.

There are a whole lot of so-called ‘experts’ out there that will preach all sorts of systems and methods. Don’t be sucked into, or suckered into, all that crap. No doubt they may have some skills in certain areas but few will have decades of experience with a wide range of incidents and 1000’s of hours of training in an approach to preparedness that makes sense and is organized…and is proven successful.

Why are the “7” numbered 1 – 7 in my list above? Because that is their priority order to be worked on and accomplished. It is also the same priority order of risk of killing you and your family. Listen to me…hear this loud and clear…the priority order is an absolute! Anyone who tells you anything else is laying the groundwork for YOUR failure…which means your family’s failure.

How so? Simple, as an example notice the ‘starvation’ threat/risk is priority #7? Let’s do a little exercise…you decide, because you read it on the Internet, that you must have food storage before anything else. So you spend hundreds, maybe thousands, of dollars buying two years worth of food storage. Yea for you! Oh, wait…you completely ignored priority #1.

Now along comes a disaster, you are all set to go…plenty to eat, no problems. Yeah, no problems until a couple of guys come along armed with nothing more than a baseball bat…and take all of that food storage that you so diligently acquired. And no, you can’t do anything about it other than getting your head bashed in because you ignored priority #1.

Let me make this real clear for you…How long do you last in a gun fight if you don’t have a gun…maybe 1 – 3 seconds? Further clarification…Did you know an average person can last 3 – 7 days without food? Hummmmmm…1 – 3 seconds vs 3 – 7 days…which is the higher priority again?

Do prepper ‘experts’ have knowledge that is worth learning? Of course many do, some don’t. Pick up quality skills and applicable information from any source you can. But if you don’t prepare correctly with a proven system, then you are prepping for somebody else’s benefit other than for you and your family.

And let me share this serious danger with you right now…I know men who have a simple plan when times get tough…they plan on taking whatever they need from people who have it. And I will also share this with you…they have the skills to do it. And if you don’t have the weapons and skills to stop them…your ‘stuff’ will become their stuff. And taking your stuff will be the best case scenario when talking about kids and women. Yes…a dark warning…a very dark and very real warning.

Enough of that…let’s get to laying the foundation practical prepping…

Broadly speaking you are prepping for emergencies. However, there are different types of emergencies, so you must learn how to prepare for each type. Otherwise, you are just flopping around like a fish on the dock.

Categorizing Emergencies –

Within the broad stroke of ‘emergencies’ (a.k.a. incidents) there are actually three categories; 1) emergencies, 2) disasters, and 3) grid-down events. And they are far, far different in sense of urgency and potential for loss of life. Let me share this with you:

  1. cut finger = emergency
  2. wildfire = disaster
  3. EMP attack = grid-down event

Here’s another way to look at it…if you get a cut finger maybe a simple first aid kit can handle it, or a trip to the 24-hour clinic for stitches may be required. Chance of loss of life is virtually nil. Now, a wildfire comes through your community might entail you evacuating, or fighting the fire yourself, and potentially losing your home. Chance of loss of life is real, and far above a simple cut finger. Finally, an EMP attack on the country could be devastating, shutting down the entire power grid, taking out all chances of hospital care, and collapsing the economic system. Chance of loss of life skyrockets due to looting, theft, desperation…to say nothing of traumatic injury and disease.

Here is a way to look at this ‘probability’ of each occurring. You are far more likely (probable) to cut your finger than an EMP attack occurring against the country.

And that comes to setting priorities for ‘how’ you prep or ‘what’ you buy. Here is a great example of all of this…if you put together a basic first aid kit you probably have the cut finger covered as far as being prepared to provide self-care. Therefore, when you put together your Individual First Aid Kit (BOK & IFAK) it still applies to all three levels. Eventually you want your family to have a Field Trauma Care Kit (FTCK) to take care of far worse injuries, such as you might find in the EMP attack. But, the time, effort, and money you put into the BOK & IFAK is just as valuable as it ever was.

So once you know how to categorize emergencies you can readily identify which to prepare for.

Setting Priorities –

So once you know which emergencies are ‘where’ on the severity scorecard…how do you know what to prepare for first?

I already hit on that…it is the “7”. But how do you come up with that “7” and which to go after first in prepping? For that you have to understand setting priorities. Not hard…LIPS.

What can I do? (Principles)

I ended yesterdays’ article with a couple of questions:

  • Who are you really and what do you truly believe in?
  • Are you willing to die for those things you believe in?

Isn’t that the real test of commitment in something? Are you willing to lay down your life for something you believe in?

Here is an example of a principle that you might consider…

Self-Defense: While many say they believe in the right to self-defense most don’t understand its origins and authority. If you don’t understand the foundation of a principle, how easily could you be persuaded, or compelled, to abandon that principle?

What is self-defense? Generally speaking it is a legal concept that allows an individual to use reasonable force to protect themselves or another from personal injury that is inflicted by another. Our Founding Fathers saw it as a God-given or natural right, but it didn’t originate with them.

Our Founders refined that concept from John Locke (1632–1704) who stated that natural rights were self-evident and gave man the right/power to pursue life, health, liberty, and possessions, as well as the right to self-defense. But that right came from English law long recognized an absolute right all the way back to 1330. And that can be traced back to Roman law 2000 years ago that stated a man had the right to defend his family and home from anyone who would invade that home. But it can go back further still, all the way to Exodus 22 (1400 BC) stating that a man has the right to defend his home, family, and possessions. Today we would call that the ‘castle doctrine’.

In today’s day and age in a constitutional sense, the natural law basis of the right to armed self-defense is part of the original meaning of the Second Amendment. That human rights were inherent (coming from God), and not granted by government…after all, the entire basis on which the nation was created comes from:

We hold these truths to be self-evident…that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…” – Colonial America Declaration of Independence, the foundational document of the United States of America.

How does this right of self-defense apply? Well, it is easy to understand how it applies against criminals who wish to hurt us or others. And I noticed that there is no defining of, or any limitations on, who a person can defend against as it applies to that right. So the criminal part is easy…but so is the defense against a government who wishes to harm/injure us. And that was the bottom line to the whole Declaration of Independence…the right of self-defense from a government that was oppressing 1700’s Colonial Americans.

Hence, we see the Second Amendment was written based on the events of April 19th, 1775 in the Battles of Lexington and Concord. If the Founding Fathers didn’t want us to be able to have the unlimited right of self-defense they would have not have clearly stated such in our Founding Documents and they would not have executed that right themselves 249 years ago.

Now it comes down to morals in terms of self-defense…for instance, if we are committing a crime and injure/kill a person trying to stop us…is that self-defense? No…plain and simple. Or is it? In 1930’s & 1940’s Nazi Germany it was against the law to help Jews avoid capture. Would a German citizen be committing a crime trying to help Jews avoid capture? Yes.

So it boils down again to morals. What morals have priority…which have the highest authority when it comes to laws…now comes the concept of right and wrong.

See how this can get weird and deep…and confusing without much trouble. Let’s go back to Nazi Germany…would you have the moral courage to recognize that the capture and murder of Jews to be right or wrong? Think about it…killing men, women, children, and babies either by shooting, starving, or gassing…right or wrong? For my way of thinking…unquestionably wrong!!

So now it comes down to this…if I break the law helping Jews escape that fate and kill a government agent doing so (i.e. Gestapo), am I guilty of murder or am I justified through the natural right of self-defense?

Let’s change it up a bit…I am a Jew and I kill a German soldier defending my family against capture by Nazis am I guilty of murder or am I justified through the natural right of self-defense even though I committed the crime of murder trying to protect my family?

Let’s make it way too close to home…example: in a disaster law enforcement officers come to my house to take my food storage and my only source of power to keep the lights on and heat running in my home. They do so with the five members of my family present. I refuse to turn over the generator, they threaten my family with guns and attempt to take the food and generator. Would I be justified in defending myself and family?

Remember, there is a difference between justified/legal and the right thing to do (morals). And remember, murder is the shedding of innocent blood. A thief is a thief is a thief…and therefore not innocent.

Let’s take a hypothetical example out just a bit…The Second Amendment is clear…perfectly clear. So next year the US federal government declares all semi-automatic guns illegal via an ATF ruling and begins immediate forceful confiscation the next day. How do you feel about that? I mean how do you really feel about it way down deep in your soul? Pause to think…

Then the day after the declaration…a heavily armed FBI/ATF SWAT team shows up at your door breaking it down to confiscate your guns…what do you do? Or, they show up at your neighbor’s door doing the same…what do you do? How deep is your commitment to the Constitution and Bill of Rights? Are you truly committed…or a fair-weather Constitutionalist?

Can you be persuaded to give up your beliefs in clearly outlined rights, liberties, and freedoms when a pretty boy starts talking about safety, security, the greater good, or national security? Politicians and bureaucrats talk that crap all the time. They spew national security, national interests, keeping the street safe, protecting our children, common sense gun laws, protecting the homeland, patriotism, salute the flag, sing the national anthem, law and order, apple pie…pure bullshit.

What is my point to all of this? The point is…WHO ARE YOU? What do you truly believe in? How deep is your commitment to what you believe in?

If you don’t know the answer to those questions then no amount of preparedness will mean a damn thing. You will be too easily swayed by anything and anyone that comes along who sounds pretty and talks convincingly…or has a gun and a badge.

Here are some examples of my principles/beliefs:

  • No one will lay a hand on my family to do harm.
  • Abortion, other than to save the life of the mother, is shedding innocent blood.
  • The First and Second Amendments are sacrosanct.
  • Transgenderism is a mental illness.
  • Mutilation of a child in the quest for transgenderism is absolute evil and demonic.

The above are examples where I will not budge and will not be moved. Any attempt to do so will be met with resistance as needed. And no, I am not saying violence…I am saying resistance. However, the Founders did set the example that made violence an action of last resort. (Read the Declaration of Independence)

What about your principles/beliefs?

What do I base my principles/beliefs on? That is an easy one!

First, I base my beliefs on eternal principles. Meaning scripture based words of God. And I follow God far more than any man-made law. Man-made laws will come and go…God’s laws are eternal. Don’t murder, don’t steal, don’t commit fraud, and be faithful to your family. Add into that…try my best to treat others as I want to be treated.

Second, I also base my beliefs on the United States’ founding documents; 1) Declaration of Independence, 2) Constitution, 3) Bill of Rights. I see them each as carrying equal weight.

Anything preached outside of those two areas are null and void if it conflicts with either. And anyone who is doing preaching to persuade otherwise is not to be trusted at all…or is to be resisted or potentially stopped.

What would you use as a basis to define your beliefs and principles? In today’s world…there are lot of people and a lot of organizations that talk pretty, their ideas even sound good and look good. But, if they fall outside of, or are in conflict with, my ‘first’ and ‘second’…then they are of no use, no value, and are to be cast aside by me.

How about you?

In my way of thinking…you MUST figure out who you are, what you believe in, and how committed you are. Otherwise, how will prepping really do you much good?

ASKED OF ME: What can I do?

The following question was posted as a comment to article of mine last month. The article that I had written outlined a number of current event issues that had come up that are very disturbing and that little can be done by the average person to affect them. So the person posting a comment asked “What can I do?”…mostly out of frustration I think.

The question that was asked shows amazing fortitude and desire to make a difference. Another way to ask that question could be “How do I prepare for what is happening and what is coming?” I am sure there are other versions of that same question but the bottom line is the same.

The answer is “preparedness”…or…to be prepared. To ensure we are on the same page, here are some well-established everyday definitions:

  • Preparedness = The state of having been made ready.
  • Prepared = Made fit or suitable; adapted; ready; willing.
  • Prepare = To make ready beforehand for a specific purpose, as for an event or occasion. To equip yourself.

I found it really interesting how these words all fit together in intention and action. Then it occurred to me to look at another term… self-reliant.

Self-reliant means to be reliant upon one’s self; trusting to one’s own powers or judgment. And to be free from external control and constraint in action and judgment.

As I was pondering this whole concept I put it together like this…

Self-reliant is the end-state, the goal. To get to that point (the end-state or goal), you have to prepare (the action)…thus you are not just prepared, you are self-reliant.

Can you actually be self-reliant in this day and age…or self-reliant in any and all scenarios such as TEOTWAWKI? I don’t think so…too many moving parts and no one person can be sufficiently proficient in all aspects of preparedness. Example: You might be really good at food storage but you might not be a combat medic ready to treat gunshot wounds. In my opinion, being self-reliant in all things is not realistic.

However, I do believe that it is possible to be relatively free from external control and constraint in action and judgment when it comes to who you are and what you believe in…when things get rough. I also believe that the more you are prepared the more self-reliant you can be. Then add to that a trusted circle of people who have additional and complimentary skills.

Why is this exercise in terminology needed? Because you have to have realistic expectations of what you can and can’t accomplish. If it’s not realistic…then you will always be in a state of “fail”. What you want is to be suitably ready, willing, and adaptable to deal with the events that are occurring/coming, while being free external controls and constraints…to the best of your ability. To me that is the essence of preparedness.

If you wanted an instant answer with me telling you what to do, the list could include things such as:

  • Call an elderly couple and ask them if you could do their shopping for them.
  • Take some diapers over to a single mom’s home.
  • Give a couple of rolls of toilet paper to the largest family you know.
  • Take a meal to an elderly woman’s home.
  • Call your friends and ask them how they are doing and if they need anything.
  • Take a big container of soup to your neighbor’s house for dinner.
  • Get on Skype and read books to your grandchildren.
  • Ask your church’s congregation leadership if a family could use your help.
  • Identify some older couple in your neighborhood and call them each day to see how they are doing.
  • Take a gallon of milk to a needy family with kids.
  • Bake a loaf of bread for your Pastor/Minister/Bishop.
  • Post positive stories and messages on your social media account.
  • Text friends telling them you are thinking of them and hope things are going well with them.
  • If you are shopping take only what you need, and don’t take the last item…look around for someone who needs it more…especially if they are elderly…take it over to them and offer it to them.
  • If you are shopping and you see an elderly person shopping by themselves…help them…or at least make eye contact and smile at them.
  • Start a Neighborhood Watch program.
  • Get out of the mainstream economy the most you can; buy at farmer’s markets, buy at garage sales, buy meat direct from a cattle rancher, barter some of your excess garden vegetables with your neighbors. Trade your skills for other folks’ skills.
  • Don’t buy into the FBI propaganda and public relations; see them for who they are.
  • Don’t believe a single thing the DOJ says.
  • Don’t let law enforcement on you property, especially in your house, without a warrant.
  • Never talk with a federal agent without a lawyer present.
  • Stay away from 90% of all mainstream media outlets.
  • Garden, can, dehydrate, ferment, and freeze as much of your own fruit and produce as possible.
  • Learn about and understand the ATF is the most unconstitutional federal law enforcement agency ever created. It exists specifically and solely to destroy the 2nd Amendment and imprison US citizens.
  • If you belong to a political party…leave it.
  • Develop strong principles, morals, and ethics…don’t compromise them.
  • If you belong to a church that supports abortion…leave it and find a Christ-centered church to join.
  • If you have children in public schools…try your best to homeschool…or at least provide education to your children that counters the anti-American, pro-Socialist/Communist crap they learn in public schools.
  • Learn and teach history.
  • Figure out how to make a great living without going to college. Professions such as electricians, plumbers, builders, mechanics, computer programmers and technicians, and a wide range of other occupations that pay as good or better than college educated jobs…and without the 10’s of thousands of $’s of debt that college requires.
  • Become as independent of the government, utilities, media, school systems, and the economy as possible.
  • Work outside of the conventional economy. Buy direct from farmers, ranchers, and farmers markets; buy from thrift stores, flea markets, and swap meets. Go to garage sales and estate sales; buy from online classifieds. Give your unneeded stuff away…or barter them for things you wan/need.

All of the above could make a difference in life…for you and others. But, you know, I really don’t want to just tell you things to do because they would be my ideas, not personal/applicable to you. Additionally, you also would just be doing stuff and not figuring out what was behind it all…the ‘why’ you were doing it. And honestly, the list may not include a single thing for you; you have to figure out what is right for you to do.

I would much rather share some insight in preparing and let you run with it…you figure out your own list.

Preparedness has two major components; 1) the principles, 2) the practical. Preparedness also is by far more a state of mind than anything tangible. Most people live their lives simply going through the daily motions of eat, sleep, work, a little socializing, barely some quality time with the family…repeat. Few folks ever really put much thought into the “what if” side of life…probably for along list of reasons. Mostly, I believe that people feel that disasters happen to others and ‘grid-down’ stuff only shows up in novels and movies. Add on top of that, preparing takes time and money…something most people feel they already don’t have enough of. It takes a particular, a special, mindset to be successful at prepping long-term.

Have you already had a change of your mindset, your thinking, your view of the world? If not, are you willing to see things differently, unconventionally, non-conforming?

Generally speaking the “principles” part are the intangibles, the “why’s” and the underlying reasons behind what you will be doing as a prepper. This principles area is a little more ambiguous in nature and due to it being so broad of a subject it will need a bit more explanation. The “practical” part is fairly easy…it is what you will do to be prepared. The “principles” part is who you are, or who you will become, to be prepared.

Which element is more important, principles or the practical?

Dang, tough question to answer…kinda like a “chicken or the egg” kinda question. They both are very important and one can’t be very successful without the other. But, I feel the “principles” component is the highest priority. Why? Because it will probably take more thinking, more introspection, and potentially tougher actions/changes.

Principles –

What exactly am I referring to when I talk about principles? Over the last several years my attitude and view of principles have changed. My view used to be strictly along the lines of principles only as applying to the practical side of preparedness. Topics such as Situational Awareness, classification of events to be prepared for, risk mitigation, etc. And I wasn’t wrong. But, as time went on I realized there was a whole other side to the principles concept.

Let me share a couple of quotes for you to ponder…

A man who has nothing he is willing to die for has nothing worth living for.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

“If you’re not ready to die for it, put the word ‘freedom’ out of your vocabulary.” – Malcom X

In the great scheme of things, what matters is not how long you live but why you live, what you stand for and what you are willing to die for.” – Paul Watson

If you’re not at least willing to die for something -something that really matters- in the end, you die for nothing.” – Andrew Klavan

And then there is…

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!” – Patrick Henry, 1775

A little less dramatic would be a quote normally attributed to Alexander Hamilton –

If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.”

The point I am trying to make is this…Who are you really and what do you truly believe in? Followed up with…Are you willing to die for those things you believe in? Isn’t that the real test of commitment in something? Are you willing to lay down your life for something you believe in?

Tomorrow I will get a little further into those questions with actual examples, more information, and a challenge for you.

Merry Christmas !

Please remember the reason for the season…and bring your family close and hold them tight.

Christopher Wray…Prison or Gallows?

Most of you have heard by now that FBI Director Christopher Wray announced that he will resign before Trump’s inauguration. He made that announcement on Dec 12th. Why that particular and specific day for his resignation announcement?

Hang on for a minute, before I get into that let me apologize for not writing about his resignation before now. I simply couldn’t. First of all that was the first day (12/12) of my flu, respiratory issue, COVID, or whatever it is that I have that has knocked the wind out of my sails. I just felt like crap…kinda still do. And add to that my passionate views of the FBI…well, I just had to wait until I mellowed out and felt better. But here goes…

Well, well…on December 13th Justice Department inspector general’s office released a report on their investigation into the FBI’s involvement in the January 6th “event” (we will call it that for now). The report clearly states that there were 26 FBI assets/resources present at the event and had acted presently and/or previously at the direction of the FBI. Of the 26; 17 of them entered restricted areas including the Capitol itself. Another 3 were involved in planning meetings.

Oddly enough…it made it clear that the FBI had advance warning of the Jan 6th event. Obviously, since FBI assets were there in the event’s planning meetings. Duh!

Now, let’s clear up a potential misunderstanding. All 26 were “informants”; however, they were, or had been, acting under the direction and control of the FBI. For clarity, at this point they are not being identified at undercover FBI agents. Meaning, the 26 were not official bureau employees. The 26 are currently being identified as “confidential human sources” (CHS) by the IG report.

In exchange for information, the FBI offers to CHSs several types of incentives for cooperation. These incentives may include monetary compensation, a reduction of penalties if involved in criminal activity, or complete absolution for crimes. Since there is an exchange of goods for services, or the promise of goods (i.e. money or preferential treatment) there exists a “contract”…with the FBI in control. That means the FBI had a contractual relationship with these 26 folks.

What does this mean? It means that the FBI had their assets involved, directly involved, in the Jan 6th event. 17 of those broke the law…and there is no record that they were ever charged, arrested, or prosecuted for those crimes. But here is the important part…3 of the FBI’s assets were involved in the planning of the event. But is that all of it? Ah, no…the most important part is this…

FBI Director Wray was repeatedly asked in Congressional hearings if the FBI, FBI agents, or FBI resources (including CHSs) were involved in Jan 6th. Under oath Wray gave the same answer every time…no. That is a crime itself…lying to Congress, especially under oath. Yeah, irony there…primary federal law enforcement agency head lying under oath. Huh?

So how do we know the depth of the FBI’s involvement in Jan 6th? Simple test…if the CHSs were not there under the direction of the FBI all Wray had to do is simply state that FBI informants were present but not at the direction of the FBI. And oddly enough…Wray never stated that. Meaning…logically, that the CHSs were there at the FBI’s direction…otherwise Wray would have stated such. Yes?

Now let’s go back to the “event”. Have whatever opinion you want…but here is where words matter…

“The United States House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol” was the official title of the Democrat controlled Congressional committee charged with investigating Jan 6th. The committee recommended charging Trump with obstruction of an official proceeding; conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to make a false statement; and attempts to “incite”, “assist” or “aid or comfort” an insurrection. Remember this…it’s important!!

Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution defines treason against the United States as: 1) levying war against the nation, 2) adhering to its enemies by giving them aid and comfort.

Chief Justice John Marshall clarified in Ex parte Bollman (1807) that “levying war” requires an actual assemblage of men for a treasonable purpose, not merely plotting. The line between conspiracy and treason is drawn at the point of physical assembly for hostile action against the United States. “Aiding and comforting the enemy” deals with acts that support entities hostile to the United States. Cramer v. United States (1945) clarified that this requires both concrete actions and intent to betray.

So the committee saw Trump worthy of those charges previously mentioned. And here is an important part…since they considered it an “attack on the capitol” and conducted by organized armed men, it rises to the level of treason. Yes? Hang in there with me one more minute…since Trump wasn’t physically there they had to charge him with “giving them aid and comfort”…again, a treason offense. Yes?

Okay, now set Trump aside for a minute, and think about this…

  1. FBI assets were involved in the planning of this attack / insurrection.
  2. FBI assets were involved in the breach of the Capitol and other restricted areas.
  3. FBI personnel lied to Congress attempting to cover-up the involvement of their assets in the attack / insurrection.
  4. The FBI had previously clearly had a contractual relations with them…at the very least.
  5. Christopher Wray was the head of the FBI during this time…he was in charge of all of this.

Does this paint a pretty clear picture of obstruction of an official proceeding; conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to make a false statement; and attempts to “incite”, “assist” or “aid or comfort” an insurrection?

Well, let’s set all of that aside for another minute. We know facts regarding the FBI:

  • August 2022 the FBI performed a SWAT raid on Trump’s home…nothing even close to anything like that ever having been done in the history of the US. And don’t forget…Biden authorized the use of deadly force during the raid.
  • In 2022 the FBI targeted the Catholic church as a hotbed of “Violent Extremists” and sought to develop confidential informants among Catholic clergy and members. Specifically targeting the Catholic church for their “pro-life views”.
  • Throughout Biden’s term as President the FBI made numerous highly armed SWAT raids of people accused of praying outside of Abortion clinics. Most of those targeted were senior citizens, many in their 70’s & 80’s.
  • In 2021 the FBI began an operation to use counterterrorism tools against parents speaking out at school board meetings in opposition to transgender-related issues and critical race theory curricula. Is was suggested in White House and FBI discussions that these parents were to be considered as violating the Patriot Act as “domestic terrorists.”
  • In the last 10 years the FBI abandoned the investigation recommendation into Biden’s illegal influence scheme with foreign governments in 2015. Including illegal payments to Biden from both Ukraine and China.
  • After the assassination attempt on Trump where he was shot, narrowly missing his head, but striking his ear, Wray testified before Congress suggesting Trump was never struck by a bullet.
  • The FBI knew about Hunter Biden’s laptop and its damning evidence against Joe Biden prior to the 2020 Presidential election. Then they had actual procession of it. The FBI hid that fact and covered up the entire incident until after the election when Trump was defeated. A clear example of election inference on the part of the FBI.
  • The FBI knew about the extensive criminal activity of Hunter Biden in regards to gun violations and tax evasion and covered it up. In 2022 an FBI whistleblower revealed that FBI leadership told FBI officials to drop the investigations.
  • FISC Judge Rudolph Contreras revealed in 2022 the FBI illegally spied on US politicians…and this was just one of several operations discovered.
  • And let’s not forget the FBI’s direct involvement in the illegal Steele RussiaGate operation.
  • Then there is a long list of whistleblowers who have exposed the crimes of the FBI.

And probably the most disgusting and disturbing of FBI atrocities…remember the report revealed in a Congressional hearing that stated more than 300,000 minors brought across the southern border NOT in the company of their parents. Yes, illegal human trafficking. How many of those more than 300,000 children has the FBI recovered and how many of their human traffickers have they arrested and are in prison? Yeah…you know that answer and you should be throwing up right about now. So ask this…Why do you think they have done nothing?

And the list goes on and on and on…and on and on and on…but you get the point by now. A significant fact to understand…this didn’t start recently or with Wray…the FBI has been doing this from the very beginning of their agency.

So now what? You will see a clear sign of guilt of Wray and the FBI if one or more of the following occurs:

  • Biden gives Wray a pardon.
  • Wray is never investigated.
  • Patel is not confirmed as head of the FBI.
  • No action is taken against any FBI personnel for any of the long list of FBI law breaking mentioned above.
  • No charges and prison time for any of the 26 FBI assets involved in the event.

So my question that served as the title of the post “Christopher Wray…Prison or Gallows?” is a moot point. Wray is a key player in the DeepState and will never be held accountable…as the FBI will never be held accountable. Why not the FBI? Based on factual evidence of the FBI’s conduct for decades…would it not be realistic to ask…”Is the FBI the thug enforcement arm of the DeepState?”

In a true Constitutional Republic an agency like the FBI would never exist. And the Founding Fathers saw it the same way…the US Constitution does not mention authorizing any agency even closely resembling the FBI. Hence, the FBI is not a Constitutional entity and should not exist.

However, if somehow the FBI was actually a part of a true Constitutional Republic and the FBI perpetrated the crimes they have since their beginning…well, the landscape would look entirely different. Huge numbers of FBI personnel would be in jail right now awaiting trial, those already found guilty would be serving long prison terms, and FBI leadership might just be facing the penalties of committing acts of sedation, insurrection, and/or treason.

But none of that will ever happen in our Banana Republic. Not because of the purity, blindness, and righteousness of our justice system…but because the DeepState controls this country’s government to its very core. And evil men will run amok using the government to create even more demonic evil.

Here is a little tidbit to close on…Wray’s salary as FBI Director is approximately $192,000 per year. His current net worth is somewhere between $23million and $43million. Huh. And how did that happen? Where is the money coming from? And more than all of that…why hasn’t Wray ever been required to release his true and exact net worth and exactly where the money comes/came from? Just asking…

Hey wait a minute…Ever wonder why the report came out just after the 2024 Presidential Election and not before? Surely you’re not thinking that the DOJ and FBI would again commit election interference…surely not!

DANGER: We are in World War III right now!

Let’s get this straight right off the bat…war in 2024 does not, will not, look like war in 1944…or even war in 1964. War in 2025…well, that might look a little more like the movies or past wars…well, not too much, just a little more. But that could change.

What makes me think WWIII has already started? Well, let’s look at two different ways I think it has started; 1) rebellions/civil wars, 2) proxy wars. If you look at rebellions and civil wars around the world right now you would see a couple dozen or so. Syria is the latest example, Lebanon, Sudan and Congo before that. Since Syria has fallen, both the US and Israel are carrying out military operations inside that sovereign country. Obviously we can’t leave out Myanmar, Nigeria, Mali, Ethiopia, Yemen, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Cameroon. Then there is the near civil war happening in South Korea. When was the last time you heard about the serious political turmoil and problems in Japan? And there are more issues, lot’s more. It’s just that the average American is oblivious to the conflicts in the world.

And then there are the proxy wars, Russia vs the West (NATO & USA), Iran vs Israel (USA), China vs Taiwan (USA)…and more. But so far US troops have not directly engaged foreign enemy troops in the current proxy wars in a meaningful way. However, we are in direct conflict with China, Russia, and Iran just to mention the top 3. How so?

All three have used computer and grid hacking against us…and us against them. We know for sure that China hacked both Verizon and AT&T this year along with Lumen Technologies and T-Mobile plus four more communications/Internet companies. Then there have been ransomware attacks by these foreign players as well as data breaches; millions and millions of Social Security record information was lost in one hack alone. UnitedHealth paid a $22 million ransom to a Russian cybercrime group in early 2024. Then add into that hacks of VPNs and even Microsoft executive personal accounts. I could go on for hours just how bad the hacks were and the huge volume of those attacks…and its economic impacts.

But it gets worse…National Intelligence Council released a report that found Russia and Iran carried out operations to influence the 2024 election. Oddly, on behalf of and benefiting the Dems. Russian hackers attacked and breached not just the DOJ but also the DOD in 2024. The hacking is relentless and costly…and it is warfare.

But it gets worse…US troops, including US Special Forces, are currently operating in 133 countries in 2024. FWIW…a 24% increase since 2015. Just to mention a few of the better known countries…Australia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, El Salvador, France, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, Poland, Peru, Turkey and the United Kingdom. Sometimes operating against al-Qaeda and ISIS, and sometimes against local “insurgent” groups. But not to be forgotten…there are countries where the US is actively engaged in overthrowing those countries…and I better not mention those for security reasons.

The point to all of this is simple…World War III has started and the US is involved…heavily involved. Now the question is…Does WWIII go hot? But before we get to that, let’s talk about the type of war currently taking place, that ensures we understand what we are dealing with.

Asymmetrical Warfare is the implementation of unconventional strategies, tactics, weapons, methods, psychological operations, and the exploitation of resources. The aim of asymmetrical warfare is to disrupt, confuse, or demoralize the enemy. This kind of warfare often leads to “underdog” victories despite numerical or technological advantages of the superior power.

As we see China, Iran, Russia, and to a lesser degree, North Korea hack, conduct election interference, computer hacking, and wage financial war against the US we get a clear picture of asymmetrical warfare. Added to those methods you can also include propaganda, media influence, oil price and production manipulation, and even blowing up gas lines or cutting Internet cables with ships in northern Europe. Lastly, “proxy wars” in a another example of asymmetrical warfare.

So I mentioned the Axis of Evil countries waging asymmetrical warfare…does the US do the same? Absolutely!!!! The US may wage more of it than the other four countries combined. And that would also include assassinations, infrastructure attacks, grid attacks, etc. Those terrorist tactics are primarily carried out by the CIA field operatives and the CIA paramilitary operations units, often with the help of US Special Forces, primarily Delta.

So here we have World War III already being waged…just not like the movies such as Saving Private Ryan – WWII…but causing death and destruction all the same. Look, in the Ukraine-Russian war alone more than 1,000,000 casualties! About 400,000 Ukrainians and about 600,000 Russians…AND FOR WHAT???

Remember this folks…Russia and Ukraine had a peace agreement within just a few months of the start of that war…AND THE UNITED STATES MADE UKRAINE BACK OUT OF IT!!!! Have you ever asked yourself “why” the US would want a war to continue and rack up a million causalities along with virtually destroying the country of Ukraine???

War…the US government’s unquenchable desire lust for war, death, and destruction. And therein lies the biggest threat…but not the only threat.

Look over these before & after pictures of Ukraine…

Think about this…1,000,000 deaths and injuries in the Ukraine-Russian war since it started in 2022. But get this…since Biden took office in 2021 about 300,000 people died in the US from fentanyl. And what country is the primary source for fentanyl in the US? China! And how does it get into the US? Primarily through the southern border with Mexico. And who transports that fentanyl into the US? Illegal aliens.

So is the US already in WWIII with China? Absolutely!!!!! And, through the use of asymmetrical warfare China has killed hundreds of thousands of Americans over the last 4 years…with the help of Mexico. And the US has helped kill hundreds of thousands in Ukraine and Russia.

Russia’s Putin has told the west consistently that if NATO (primarily the US) crosses certain “red lines” in Russia’s war with Ukraine that Russia’s use of nuclear weapons is on the table as an option. And yet…the US continues to push those red lines. So ask yourself…why is the US pushing those red lines and Russia towards the use of nuclear weapons? Hell, try this question…Why are we not only actively engaged in that war…why the hell we have prevented the peace process to stop that war!?!

I’ve written before that the world’s Doomsday Clock is showing 90 seconds to midnight. That is the closest it has ever been to indicating the potential for a global catastrophic destruction. Think about that for a minute.

So why do I bring this up…especially considering you probably have nothing you can do to stop any of this? Two reasons really; well, only two reasons that I feel are of the utmost importance; 1) be aware of the people and countries that are behind it, 2) to prepare for it. #1 is probably a discussion for another day…but it is pretty self-evident. #2 is the “actionable item”…prepare for it to escalate.

But, wait! You might ask…If we are already in WWIII what realistically can I do to prepare for it? And there is the crux of it.

Fortunately, most of you are not yet directly affected by WWIII. In my way of thinking WWIII started on 9/11/2001…literally the 21st century equivalent of Pearl Harbor. It was the excuse the US was looking for to take dozens of military conflicts all over the world and turn them into a single war…WWIII.

I should have said…hopefully you have not been directly affected by WWIII yet. Consider this…since WWIII started (9/11/2001) there have been at least 60,000 US military casualties, some estimates are much higher. The number of deaths related to combat are somewhere near 10,000. But here is the disgusting part…there have been well over 30,000 suicides of military personnel since 2001 (as of 2021). Why do you think that is?

So while we take kids to soccer practice, go to church on Sundays, work our 8-hour days, go to family reunions, build our new house, buy a new car, and a ton of regular daily activities…100,000 (+/-) military deaths and hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths in WWIII in the United States of America. Yes, that’s hundreds of thousands of US citizens dead in WWIII since it started. Have you honestly ever considered that?

Consider this…

  • China is staged and ready to invade Taiwan
  • Russia has threatened to use nukes against NATO and the USA
  • North Korea (a nuclear power) is run by a crazy man
  • Iran (religious crazies) is now a nuclear power
  • The US & NATO is pushing Russia to the breaking point
  • The US cannot fight a war with Russia and China at the same time…and win
  • The Middles East has been at war, the most recent war, for over a year…and getting worse

How long do think it will be before some country’s leadership pushes the red button? Or, the US directly engages China, or the US more directly engages Russia; or Iran uses a nuke against Israel? Remember we are already at war and the body count is rising in the US around the world on all sides.

You can’t stop any of this…but you can do something constructive about it. Prepare…simple as that.

Prepare “what” or “how”? Yeah, don’t despair. You probably already know what to do. But I am working on an article that might help a bit, maybe shed a little light on, or provide some new perspective on the whole “prepare” thing. It will probably be posted early next week.

Here are couple of little tidbits I would like you to chew on:

right click to enlarge

  • 2014 is the year when fentanyl deaths really began to spike in the US. And we know that virtually all fentanyl comes from China. 2014 is also the year that the US overthrew the Russia-friendly government in the Ukraine. Starting in 2014 the Biden family started receiving millions of dollars from China.
  • It was also late in 2014 that the Biden family started receiving millions from Ukraine. And it was a 2013 a US operation began to overthrow the pro-Russia Ukrainian government that finalized in 2014. The heads of that joint operation were Hillary Clinton (Secretary of State) and Joe Biden (Vice President).
  • In 1997 – 1998 China moved millions and millions of dollars to the Democrat National Committee, the DNC later moved

    right click to enlarge

    much of that money to the Clinton family. In 1998 Clinton allowed the transfer of previously highly classified military technology to China, including satellite and missile technology. It was during this same time that China “acquired” classified information on advanced fighter jet and other military technology from the US. In 1998/1999 China began a notable increase in military spending that led to China becoming a military super-power that rivals the US.

  • In 2021, Biden’s first year as President, the number of Chinese illegal border crossing was low, less than 1,000. By the end of 2023 that number had gone up 24 times…up 2400%. In the first 3 months of 2024 the number had grown to 22,000…in just three

    right click to enlarge

    months time. But get this…since Joe Biden has been President…100,000 (+/-) Chinese have crossed the US southern border…that we know about. And oddly enough…most of those 100,000 have been military age men.

Am I the only one that sees a whole bunch of dots connecting here?

It is time to get very, very serious about preparing.

Kash Patel, FBI Director, Spygate, Coup Against Trump…

I don’t know about you but before Trump announced Kash Patel as the new FBI Director I had no idea who he was. I thought I had heard his name before but I wouldn’t swear to it. After the announcement, in my spare time, I started to do some research into him. Man, I was surprised, pleasantly surprised…thrilled actually!

I have included a great video regarding his role as lead investigator into Spygate (the Russian hoax against Trump), how he exposed the role of the FBI in the coup against Trump, how he exposed the weaponization of the DOJ, how the federal government classifies documents just to keep the public in the dark about their criminal inner dealings, and how badly the whole FISA thing is for America. But for me, the most important thing he did was exposed how the FBI has become the thug enforcement arm of the DeepState and other authoritarians in the US government.

All that being said, if you really listen to Patel’s answers to the intense questions he is asked…well, listen closely for yourself. For me, the spirit whispered to me a clear message…this man is a man with morals, with character, with principles, a man who loves this country and the Constitution…and wants both the rule of law (the Constitution) and the Republic restored.

Further, Patal is extremely intelligent, very methodical, logical, systematic, and thorough. This is a man who can hopefully do the job Trump had outlined for him. For me…I hope he has the opportunity to at least reform the FBI, which is sorely needed…but best case, abolish the FBI entirely. That would be my best case scenario…abolishing the FBI would help restore both the Constitution and the Republic along with putting a big dent in the DeepState’s ability to destroy the USA.

The video is 44 minutes long…and worth every single second!!! Please, in this day and age people must become informed about what is happening in Washington and just how corrupt and evil the rot has become…and how it can be stopped and changed. Please watch.

One last note…I don’t expect any Democrat to support Patel’s nomination; if one does, that Dem might just be a good guy. Any Republican that would oppose Patel’s nomination would clearly be part of the DeepState or potentially they might  be blackmailed by the FBI…which the FBI happens to be very good at.

Denver vs Chicago…

No, “Denver vs Chicago” isn’t about an NFL rivalry, or who will make it to the any sports playoff venue at all. It actually ties back into my recent post about Denver spending $356million dollars on criminal illegal aliens while US citizens (including US veterans), homeless and hungry, go hungry and freezing while criminal illegal aliens are treated to free food, free housing in hotels and motels, free medical care, free education, and provided free legal services. Well, Denver has been out down!!

Just a couple days ago it was revealed that Chicago won the criminal illegal alien spending spree award! Yup, Chicago beat Denver by over 60% in this horrific competition. Yeah, Chicago spent $575million giving free food, free housing in hotels and motels, free medical care, free education, and provided free legal services to criminal illegal aliens. And they did so smiling…while, once again, US citizens go hungry and homeless in an extremely violent city.

But here is the kicker to this outrageous expenditure of taxpayer money…Chicago did this while suffering from a $1billion budget deficit. Yes, you read that right. While city came up short one BILLION dollars for their annual budget they are passing out hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars to criminals.

Yeah, I am thinking the same thing…How do the politicians get away with this?

Honestly, I don’t know…not entirely anyways. We know for a fact that Democrats are importing these criminal illegal aliens knowing/hoping that one day they will become their voters creating an imbalance in the US political system. And we know that global elites are assisting the invasion of the US by criminal illegal aliens to accomplish their goal of destabilizing and eventually overthrowing the US.

But, is there more to it? I think so…

Let’s look at some interesting stats:

  • In 2022 Cook County, Illinois (Chicago) had nearly 1000 homicides…#1 city in the nation.
  • From 2022 to 2023 every aspect of crime is up in Chicago, violent crime up almost 20%. But interestingly, arrests are down significantly. The trend of violent crimes vs arrests for those violent crimes is notable. Violent crimes up significantly (nearly 20%), arrests for violent crimes down significantly (down over 30%).
  • There are almost 50 shootings per week in Chicago.

Not to leave Denver (including the greater Denver area) out…every sector of criminal activity in Denver is also up significantly in 2024. Also, compared to pre-illegal alien days, violent crime, especially shootings and shooting deaths, are up just about 50%. Now, to Denver’s credit…they are not nearly as bad as Chicago. Then again, Denver only spends about $3 for every $5 that Chicago spends on criminal illegal aliens. And Denver didn’t report a $1billion dollar budget deficit either.

So Chicago wins the most violent city award and higher spending on criminal illegal aliens award.

While Denver wins the most budget conscious violence award and comes in second place to Chicago’s outrageous spending on criminal illegal aliens.

So is there a loser in this competition? Of course there is…homeless and hungry US citizens lose…and lose BIG time! Both cities, Democrat controlled, ignore the plight of US citizens while they pander to and provide the lap of luxury to criminal illegal aliens.

Way to go Chicago and Denver !

Predicting The ‘Economic End Of The World’ Over The National Debt Have Been Consistently Wrong

note: the title of this post comes from a headline, it is not my feeling.

Last week a very well known and respected money guy talked about the national debt, now approaching $37trillion. He made a good point…people have predicted economic doomsday for decades…and it hasn’t materialized.

While he acknowledges that the debt is a serious concern, he doesn’t believe it’s about to cause the economy to crash. “Is it concerning? Yeah, it’s concerning. But is it going to cause a crash? Apparently not,” he said. And he is right…so far. And he will be right, until he’s not.

What?

Back in July 2021 I explained what Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) is. A part of MMT is never-ending national debt. Essentially, MMT is where a sovereign country like the U.S. can spend, tax, and borrow in a fiat currency that they fully control; and that country is not fiscally constrained by revenues when it comes to federal government spending. Yes, it means the government can borrow ad infinitum…without end or limits.

So was this economic guru and genius right? Well, sort of, kinda, but not really…almost.

He is right in that as the US federal government wants to spend more money, it simply borrows it (known as Treasury Notes). So what happens if there are no more buyers of Treasury Notes? That’s no longer a problem. Now, the Federal Reserve, simply buys the notes if there are no other buyers. Ah, how do they pay for those notes? They have the US Treasury print money. Well, technically the US Treasury creates it digitally. The Treasury then transfers the digital money to the Federal Reserve who then buys the Treasury Notes with that digital money.

If it were anyone other than the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury…they would all be spending life in prison for fraud. The point is…the government can borrow an unlimited amount of money to pay for goods and services.

So what are the problems, if any?

Oh, wow:

#1 – The annual “debt service” cost. The amount of money now required to pay the interest on all of those Treasury Notes exceeds $1trillion. Yeah, more than $1,000,000,000,000 (about 15 – 20% of the entire US government budget). Well, theoretically that isn’t too much of an issue…the country can just borrow the money to pay the interest on the money it borrowed. Yes, you read that right.

Who gets those interest dollars? 27% goes to the Federal Reserve, 24% goes to foreign countries and investors.

Yeah, imagine that…over 50% of the interest on US Treasury Notes goes to private bankers (Federal Reserve) or to line the pockets of foreigners (think “global elites”). No wonder that the US government loves to borrow money so freely to spend money so freely!

The way I see it…it is a problem that so much of US taxpayer dollars go to feed the greed of private bankers and foreigners.

#2 – The bigger problem is inflation. One way inflation is caused is when too many dollars chase to few goods and services. As the US federal governments spends trillions of dollars each year, much of which it has to borrow, it floods the economy with ‘too many dollars’ it drives up the cost of everything for the average citizen.

#3 – Speaking of average citizen…since federal workers make about 2.5 times more than the average American worker it creates an ‘elite class’ with government workers. Yup, the federal government simply borrows more and more money to fund the ruling class (a.k.a. elite class – government employees) and the average Americans pay the interest on that borrowed money…in addition to all the taxes the average American pays!

#4 – Diverting money from the private sector. Since the federal budget comes from taxpayers, or is borrowed, it takes money out of the private sector and diverts it to the government who then spends it on what they prioritize. Think if there was no government borrowing, no government interest being paid, and all that money stayed in the hands of US citizens who actually earned it. Yeah, $2trillion borrowed in 2024. Think of this way…if the US government didn’t borrow any money in 2024 that would have put over $6,000 in the hands of every man, woman, and child in the United States. Yeah, imagine the average family of 4 having $25,000 extra to spend on what they want/need to spend it on!!

#5 – The US military spends just at a $1trillion per year to fund America’s endless wars and military adventurism. And they can do that because once again…the US simply will borrow the money to fund those wars. Just imagine for a minute if the US only funded the military for defensive purposes…your know, actually protecting the homeland. That would put another $1,500 in the hands of every man, woman, and child in the United States.

So where does all this interest paid and borrowed money go? Here is a great list:

  • The huge military-industrial complex (includes global foreign companies).
  • Private bankers (via the Federal Reserve).
  • Foreign governments and investors.
  • A bloated ruling class of federal government workers.

So yeah, there are problems with the federal government borrowing money to fund its operations. But there is a bigger issue here. Remember I mentioned Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) earlier?

A little tidbit of information, an historically proven fact…any government and/or empire that has ever adopted MMT has failed and crashed. Ooooppppssss!

And then there is the vulnerability issue. What do you think happens if one day the 24% of US debt owned by foreign governments gets flooded out onto the bond market? Yup…crash! Or what if those country’s leaders just threaten the US to dump the notes on the open market? Yo think that gets them a bit of influence in Washington?

And then there is the Treasury Note holdings by the Federal Reserve. What happens if the private bankers who run the Federal Reserve decide one day they don’t like the way a President is calling the shots? Do you think they might pick up the phone and share with the President what happens if the Federal Reserve dumps its holdings on the market?

Bottom line…all this national debt, government spending/borrowing, and interest on the national debt is just fine…till it’s not. But when it hits the “it’s not” part…the pain is real, the crash is severe, and people suffer and die. Why? Because the dollar becomes worthless and no one is left with any money that’s worth a damn.

So take a minute a decide for yourself if the national debt is an issue for you or not. I have already made up my mind.

And please…don’t try and make a case that the national debt can be paid off. It can’t. There is no realistic way that the US national debt can be paid off…period!

Lastly…when these talking head experts vomit spew their guru knowledge…well, think it through for yourself.

Man…was I wrong!!!

In my article (Important questions/issues that came up…) I mentioned that Denver mayor had diverted $180million since December 2022 to provide free services to criminal illegal aliens. Man, I was wrong! I reported the mayor had denied basic human services to homeless US residents, including US homeless veterans to come up with the money for illegal aliens. I stated that their brainless mayor will leave homeless US citizens and US veterans in the streets while criminal illegal aliens get nice cozy accommodations, including motels & motels, keeping all those criminal illegal aliens safe, warm, and well fed. I was wrong…forgive me.

Common Sense Institute (CSI), a non-partisan research organization dedicated to protecting and promoting the U.S. economy reported that the actual figures based on audits was $356million vs $180million. Get this, that is $7,900 per criminal illegal alien in the city!! Yup!!!!! Leave the US homeless on the streets, let US veterans go hungry but the reckless Denver mayor will ensure that all these illegal aliens (45,000 of them) are well taken care of, well fed, housed in hotels and motels, given free medical care, free education, and provided free legal services.

What I find interesting is that Denver doctors earlier this year said that the migrant crisis had pushed the hospital system to its breaking point and was causing a humanitarian crisis. How much worse does the Biden Administration and Democrats want to force the US into? Well, think about this…all those illegal aliens have cost Denver medical providers $50million in uncompensated medical care on top of the $356million cost to the city budget.

And you guessed it…”undocumented migrant” advocates say the city just isn’t providing enough assistance. What? Yup, imagine that.

So where do you think all this ends up, eh?

A better question might be…Why do you think the illegal invasion is happening to begin with and who is behind it?
