GDP 4.9% : Economic Celebration ! !

Posted on by

Ahhhhhh…not so fast.

First off, what is “GDP” in this context?

GDP is short for Gross Domestic Product. GDP is the monetary measure of the value of all the goods and services produced in a specific time period in a country. GDP is a measure its economic health.

But, there are three different measures of GDP that are used by the government and economists. The one being referred to in the headlines is apparently “real GDP”, meaning it is adjusted for inflation. And that is a good thing, a more accurate picture, or supposedly so.

Let’s take a closer look…so GDP is up 4.9% is being touted as a proof that the economy is strong and there are no worries in the US from a financial perspective. And they are using a number that is already adjusted for inflation makes it a credible and accurate “fact” right?

Well, first off…inflation is calculated based on the price of 200 items in urban areas. And “core inflation” the primary one used by government does not include food or fuel. It also doesn’t calculate in interest rates on loans, credit cards, etc.

But…interest paid is included in GDP calculations.

Did you notice the “ urban areas” part? Yup, so if you live in the suburbs or outside of city limits…the price you pay for stuff is not included in the inflation calculations. Nice, eh? Makes it very accurate and appropriate for everyone…what?

What does that GDP and inflation information mean?

If you listened to most reporting of the stellar GDP number, you probably didn’t hear that consumer spending was up 4%. Now that may sound great too…folks are spending money. Yea!! The economy MUST be good, right?

Here are some of the real facts:

  1. Interest rates have skyrocketed this year; mortgage rates, credit card rates, car loan rates, etc. all of them up. And those higher interest payments are included in consumer spending (up 4%) but not adjusted for inflation since interest rates are not included in calculating inflation.
  2. Student loan repayments started back up in October (last month of the 3rd quarter). This caused millions of people to start spending big money they previously hadn’t. Which means it is included in the GDP going up and not included in inflation.
  3. I don’t know about where you live, but here gas went from $3.69 to $4.29 in the 3rd quarter they are bragging about. Yeah, gasoline up 16% in that quarter. And that wasn’t included in in the inflation calculation which means the GDP was “adjusted” for it. Meaning…all the extra money that you spent on gasoline is included in the GDP going up…and also is included in the increase in consumer spending…but not included in the inflation figure.
  4. When was the last time you went to the grocery store and saw prices go down? Yeah, thought so! Meaning those food price increases are included in GDP but not included in inflation.

All of this means:

  1. Inflation appears to be going down but doesn’t include the increases in gasoline, food, or interest rates.
  2. Consumer spending is going up but that is due to higher prices of everything, especially gasoline, food, student loan payments, and interest rates.
  3. And that all means that the GDP bragging going on is FALSE!!

And let’s not leave the government out of this…with their mulit-multi-trillion dollar budget pumping money at an historic rate into the US economy…and included in the GDP numbers. But not factoring in for the multi-trillion dollar federal budget deficit adding to inflation.

Yup, the only reason GDP is up is much higher prices that consumer is paying gasoline, food, interest rates, and millions of people now paying on their student loans. Along with the US federal government’s out-of-control spending.

You can test that a number of ways:

  1. Huge increase in the percentage number of people paying for essential living expenses with credit cards and NOT using their paychecks because their paychecks are no longer large enough.
  2. Historic amount of credit card and personal debt.
  3. Historic percentage of credit card and car loan default rates.
  4. Historic number of people living paycheck to paycheck…including those making over $100,000 per year.
  5. Historic number of people with historic low amount of money in savings…under the $400 threshold!

Listen to just a sampling of economists:

  • “Your middle-class consumer is being hammered by inflation, by oil prices, by cost of living…”
  • “The U.S. is no longer the central [economic] power.”
  • Mini-millionaires is the fastest growing wealth sector of Americans, second is the top 1% of Americans. (Are you in one of those categories?)
  • “…low- and moderate-income Americans have depleted much of their excess cash reserves and taken on more credit card debt even as borrowing costs are rising and banks are tightening their lending standards.”

But test is the best way of all…How are your fiances doing?

Is your income going up faster than gas or food prices? Are your bills making you grimace as you pay them? In hard-core real terms…how are your finances doing? Your rent going up? Has your mortgage payments gone up or down? How about insurance…your payment/rates going up or down?

Then again…BELIEVE THE US GOVERNMENT FIGURES ! ! ! ! The economy is great! Good times are here! Everything is just fine! Now, move along…nothing but good news here…move along…like a good little sheep.

Happy Days Are Here Again !!!!

Ah, hold on just a second…let’s recap…

  • The US federal government manipulated inflation to not include three huge items (food, fuel, & interest) to make inflation look much lower than it actually is.
  • The US federal government manipulated GDP, adjusted for false lower inflation, making it look better than it actually is…especially since interest payments are a huge part of the so-called increase/improvement in GDP.
  • The US federal government surely has never and would never lie to us or try to deceive us.

Oh never mind all of that…life is great, the economy is booming, country’s financial situation is wonderful!!!!

Move along…nothing to see here.

Firewood & War

Posted on by

The firewood is all cut, split, and stacked for the winter. Remember on 10/18 I wrote I felt prompted over and over again to put up way more firewood than normal? Well, I have 5 cords of wood ready to go. Yeah, that is a stack of wood 4’ high and 80’ long. Why is that noteworthy? Since we’ve been in the new house we have used between 1-1/4 to 1-3/4 cords of wood during heating season. We now have nearly 3 times that much ready to go…and I am thinking another couple of cutting mornings yet this year.

Any idea why I am putting up that much firewood?

Let’s talk war…back in May 2021 I said I saw a 60% chance of Russia invading Ukraine…7 months later Russia invaded Ukraine. In that same post I said if we get tangled up with Russia then Iran would make a move by forming a coalition against Israel. Well, we now had to witness 10/7 and the horrific slaughter at the hands of Islamic fighters against Israeli civilians. And again, in that same post I said that if we get tangled up with Russia then China would go active as well. And China has.

Throughout 2023 China has been making moves against Taiwan. A recent article by NPR actually outlined all Chinese actions against Taiwan in 2023, apparently testing their defenses and strategies. But it doesn’t stop there…tensions between China and the Philippines has been significantly on the rise in the last few months. And just days ago a Chinese Navy ship rammed a Philippines Navy ship. The worst part…the US immediately warned China that the US will defend the Philippines at all costs.

So we are in a war with Russia in Ukraine. We are now at war with Iran in Israel. And we are threatening China with a war in the Philippines and Taiwan. Why do you think that is?

In numerous articles I have already shown that we no longer have the military capability to fight a serious war…let alone a 2-front war…and certainly not a 3-front war. We no longer have the oil reserves, the oil production capability, the fuel refining capability, the small arms ammunition, the 155mm shells, the missiles…and we are falling far short of the recruiting goals for a peacetime military let-alone a wartime military. Why do you think that is?

But let me digress to the war in Israel. What is the purpose of Iran starting that war? True, they have continuously stated they want to wipe Israel off the map. They are yet another extremely violent Muslim country that has a 1600 year hatred of Jews. Iran is Shia Muslim…and they hate Sunni Muslims…and Saudi Arabia is Sunni Muslim…and Saudi Arabia recently entered into a peace treaty with Egypt and Israel. And no, Iran doesn’t like that. So what better way yo break the peace treaty and unite the Islamic world…KILL THE JEWS!!

As of now…Israel is in a war with Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. And of course the US has pledged to defend Israel. Strange though…somehow the CIA and NSA completely missed a year-long period of Hamas preparing for the 10/7 operation. Why do you think that is?

Let me throw this at you…who are now the top 8 out of 9 oil producing countries in the world? They are Russia, Saudi Arabia (OPEC), Brazil, Iraq (OPEC), China, Iran (OPEC), United Arab Emirates (OPEC), and Kuwait (OPEC).

Now let’s add this to the story…The current members of BRICS are Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.

Who are the newest members of BRICS that are now joining the original BRICS members? Argentina, Egypt, Iran (OPEC), Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia (OPEC) and the United Arab Emirates

And then there is the 2022 alliance between OPEC and Russia.

Does that sound strange to you…maybe some real overlapping of those countries?

Huuummmmm…BRICS mission is to replace the dollar as the world’s reserve currency and knock off the US as the world’s #1 economy. OPEC mission is to control the production and exportation of crude oil around the world and knock off the US as the world’s #1 oil producer and reduce the US economic control around the world. China’s #1 goal for decades has been to replace the US as the world’s sole super-power. Russia’s #1 goal for the last 20 years is to knock the US down a peg or two. And of course the Islamic world’s goal has been to wipe Israel off the map…along with the USA (the Great Satan).

Let me ask the question again but slightly different…What is the purpose of Iran starting the war Israel now?

Tie all the world events together in light of BRICS, OPEC, China, and Russia. Bring that together with Biden as President and the USA never more divided and internally hostile with each other in the last 150 years. Now look at it this way…since 10/7 the world, rather the people of the world, have fallen into two basic camps…Pro-Gaza or Pro-Israel. In other words…kill the Jews or support the Jews. And we are seeing violence around the world between those two groups.

Where does the US government fall in this situation? Well, President Obama put VP Biden in charge of sending huge sums of cash to Iran during the Obama regime. President Obama negotiated the agreement to ensure that Iran would get nuclear weapons. Then Biden released billions of dollars to Iran and restored the Iranian nuclear weapons deal that Trump had canceled. Oh yeah…and it was Biden that left billions and billions of dollars of high-grade military equipment in Afghanistan…some of which showed up in the hands of Hamas on 10/7.

So do you believe a person’s words or their actions…which carries the most weight?

I called it back right after Russia invaded Ukraine…World War III had started. It has now spread to the Middle East…and growing worse by the day. And China is now pushing the limits more and more each day.

So where does that leave you?

First off…if 10/7 didn’t repulse you…well, I feel sad for you and your soul. Islamic fighters attacked Israel…but not as in war. Hamas came in as terrorists and committed horrific acts of terror against men, women, children, and babies. There is no justification or rationalization for that…PERIOD!! If you don’t see that…then you may well be on the side of evil. Because that is exactly what that is…Good vs Evil.

Israel is defending itself now and will continue to do so. And they will not be perfect in how they do it, civilians will die…but as collateral damage NOT as targets or terror.

And before the smug self-righteous bastards start to go off on Israel about how they will conduct war…remember the hundreds of thousands of civilians that the US killed bombing Germany during WWII. Or more recently the thousands and thousands of civilians killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, including men, women, children, and babies.

So what does all of this mean to you? I have no earthly idea.

What it means to me…1) the world is at war and it will get worse, 2) this is a battle of good vs evil, 3) BRICS & OPEC are making a bold attempt to destroy the American Empire, 4) the US government is not what it appears, 5) this war is already in the US and will get worse.

And here are my deepest concerns…1) there are Islamic sleeper cells in the US that will strike when ordered, 2) there are Chinese sleeper cells in the US that will strike when ordered, 3) the US authorities are completely unable to deal with it…even if they desired to, 4) a huge criminal element inside the US, controlled outside of the US, is waiting for just the right moment to raise its head to record levels.

And lastly, what this means to me…no one from the government is coming to save me, my family, or the ones I love and care about.

Again, what does all of this mean to you? And…what are you going to do about it?

For me…I am taking steps even as you read this article. I also hope you are, or do, as well.

Come to think of it…maybe I do know why I was so clearly prompted to put up so much firewood…my primary heat source. Maybe that is why I was prompted to put up a supply of gas & oil for my chain saw. Maybe that is why I was prompted to put up a decent supply of diesel fuel for my tractor. Maybe that is why I was prompted to buy so much compost and other garden supplies this summer. Maybe, maybe, maybe…

Did I mention that OPEC and BRICS control about 90% of oil production the in world? Did I mention that OPEC and BRICS economies dwarf the US economy? Did I mention that OPEC and BRICS control the vast majority of all food produced in the world? Did I mentioned that OPEC and BRICS militaries, including nuclear weapons, dwarf the US military? Did I mention how many military age individuals have come into the US illegally through the southern boarder from OPEC and BRICS in the last 2 decades?

So much I haven’t mentioned, right? Maybe things you might want to think about…both what I have mentioned and what I haven’t. Just a thought.

Oh wait…one last thought…do you think if Israel believes it about to be defeated by Muslims that it will hesitate to use its nuclear weapons? And if Israel does…then who else?

Okay…the real one last thought…with all of these things happening in the world today the way they are…”Why?” No, actually…”Who is orchestrating it and who is supporting it?” might be the better question. Then that answer clarifies everything else.

Current State of the Union – 10/19/2023

Posted on by

I started this article about 3 weeks ago, I stopped working on it due to a number of factors, some of which I have already talked about. I debated continuing this article and posting it, I thought maybe it was outdated. I am convinced that it is even more applicable now than before.

These things we know as fact…

The Federal Reserve, a cabal of private bankers, is destroying the US economy and along with it the economies around the world. And they are doing so intentionally. Ironically, the Federal Reserve has no Constitutional authority to even exist, let alone exert virtual absolute control over the US economy.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has proven itself to be anything but that…justice. The DOJ has become a weapon of the federal government…to increase and enforce the tyrannical power of authoritarians inside the federal government. It has become crystal clear through the testimony of Merrick Garland, current US Attorney General, and his minions, that the DOJ will not submit itself to Congressional oversight as required by law. Ironically, neither the Department of Justice or the office of Attorney General is authorized in the US Constitution.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), along with all other federal law enforcement agencies, have become fully weaponized to enforce the power of a tyrannical federal government at all costs. To act outside of the Bill of Rights, or any other US law structure, is now the lawless norm for these agencies. They have no regard or respect for the rule of law, especially the Bill of Rights. The FBI is an organization of evil, performing heinous acts for those that are their masters. Ironically, no current federal law enforcement agency, including the FBI, is authorized in the US Constitution. Want to see disgusting authoritarians at work, watch FBI Director Wray testify before Congress.

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is one of the most monstrous and immoral organizations the world has ever known. It kills at will, overthrows sovereign governments on command, assassinates world leaders at the stroke of a pen, and ruins millions of lives around the globe with impunity. And does so wrapped in the US flag behind the false face of patriotism. Ironically, the CIA is not authorized in the US Constitution.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have allowed 10’s of millions of illegal boarder crossings to take place over the last two decades. This has resulted in the United States of America being flooded with murderers, rapists, drug smugglers, cartel members, human traffickers, sex offenders, thieves, drunks, and child abusers. But of even greater concern…thousands upon thousands of military age middle eastern men…radical Islamic terrorists. Then there are the hundreds of Chinese men of military age as well. In 2006 I was included in briefings as part of my job and I know these facts to be true. Both CBP and ICE work for Department of Homeland Security (DHS). There are only two logical and realistic answers as to why this has happened…complete and total incompetence or it was intentional. When you listen to Alejandro Mayorkas (head of DHS) periodically testify before Congress you then understand it can only be intentional. He has no regard for the Constitution and utter contempt for those trying to exercise their Constitutional authority to oversee DHS.

Ask yourself these two simple questions…Since 2021 350,000 unaccompanied minor children have crossed the border illegally, a huge increase since Biden took office, why? And of those 350,000 children, why are 85,000 ‘lost” and can’t be located by DHS authorities, why? And let me throw one last question the there for good measure, why isn’t the FBI investigating that? What those children have been thrown into should make you cry.

The US Army…simple…there is no Constitutional authority for a standing Army. However, the Constitution does empower CONGRESS to raise an army and fund it, but not for more than two years…in times of dire need. Why no standing army? Because the Founding Fathers saw the extreme dangers of a standing army and the tyranny it always brings. However, they were opposed by those that wished an authoritarian US federal government. Eventually, over time, Congress made law allowing for an all-powerful standing army. Interestingly, the US Constitution does provide for a US Navy…”the Framers [Founding Fathers] viewed a navy as critical to whether the United States would be commercially independent of foreign naval powers, which might otherwise use their control of the seas to dictate terms under which the United States could trade.” Does that interest you at all?

Neither the Executive or Legislative branch of the US government has any intention to operate within a balanced budget at the federal level. Nor do they intend to eliminate (pay off) the national debt. The current national debt exceeds $33,000,000,000,000 (33 trillion dollars). All of which has been acquired in the past 25 years under 2 Democrat and 2 Republican Presidents…and under Congresses controlled by both Democrats and Republicans. If the United States had used every single dollar value of all goods and services produced in the entire nation in 2022 and applied that to the national debt…it would have only paid off 75% of that debt. And not a single person or company in the US would have received a dime of income. Does that bother you?

On September 18th Janet Yellen, Treasury Secretary, made it clear she has no concern regarding the US national debt. On September 17th a consortium of economists and monetary leaders labeled the US national debt as “meaningless”, never needing to be paid off, and “very appropriate and desirable.” Congress makes zero effort to even have a balanced budget let alone reduce the national debt. Our current President has been proposing more and more federal programs that will add trillions of additional dollars to the national debt. “National debt” is part of a broader monetary policy called “Modern Monetary Theory”…and it has failed every single time it has been attempted over the last 5,000 years.

As far as the US Congress…politicians in general…tell me when, in the last 125 years, that the US Congress has restored one right, liberty, or freedom that it had previously taken from the citizens of the United States. Exactly! Does that have any meaning for you?

The current President of the United States has clearly and unequivocally identified himself as an authoritarian dictator. On September 1st President Biden stated clearly that Republicans, conservatives, and libertarians…essentially anyone other than radical liberals/Progressives…are now labeled as enemies of the state. In 2021, 2022, and again in 2023 Biden made it clear during speeches that he would use US Air Force F15s and nuclear weapons (meaning the full weight of the US military) against anyone who tried to fight against US federal government tyranny.

The entire US federal government and the entire US political system exists for two things; 1) unfettered quest for wealth, 3) lust for absolute power. But, you probably already know that, don’t you?

What is my point? Well, I could go on and on but it is not needed…you know what is happening in the United States. You also see what is happening in the world today. A person only needs to review the G20 plan that came out of their 2023 meeting in India to see what the world’s elite have planned. And yes, I mean the World Economic Forum (WEF). The WEF has it all planned out on how to implement authoritarianism around the globe by 2030. Personally I think that is a little hopeful and aggressive on their part…but I have been wrong before.

There is no…and I mean NO…politician that is coming to save us or you or your family. There is no white knight galloping to the rescue. No one in government or the political system has any intention or desire to save anything. None of them will restore rights, to bring back lost freedoms, or renew liberties is against the very nature of politicians and especially against the design and plan of all US federal law enforcement agencies. A sound and solid Constitutional Republic is totally contrary to that which the politicians and federal bureaucrats desire. US citizenry has been reduced to little more than serfs within the system…and we’ve allowed that to happen. Hell, we’ve willingly voted for it for 130 years!

We, as individuals and families, are entirely on our own.

But…that clarity gives us enormous hope!

Once we truly and completely accept that no one is coming to save us, then we can begin to actually and honestly take steps to save ourselves. Now, don’t think for a minute that I am removing God from the equation, I am not. He, God, is on our side…He will assist us, lead us as we take those necessary steps to salvage that which is needed. God will work with us as we work to restore and renew that which is needed.

Once we, as individuals and families, have established principles that are in harmony with eternal truths and Constitutional precepts, are then prepared to expand our influence to those around us in a larger sphere. Working in our neighborhoods, our communities, and our congregations we can establish an atmosphere of trust, a belief in actual God-give, Constitutionally guaranteed, rights, liberties, and freedoms.

Why is that important? Because like all empires…the USA Empire is going to fall…and fall hard. If you are not prepared, you will fall with it…along with your family and all those that you hold dear. And yes, the world will fall as well as the USA Empire falls.

All the confusion, division, anarchy, political posturing and intrigue, the economic devastation with inflation, the debt bombs about to detonate, the hate and animosity, and the demonic/Satanic cult of transgenderism, multiple wars…it is all designed to destroy not just society in general, but you as an individual…and destroy your family. You, as well as everyone around you, is being specifically targeted to be destroyed.

This is all intentional, all planned…it is all by design. It is designed to bring people to the point where the populace screams for relief, prays for rescue, demands solutions…and it will be given…rather, forced, by request, to those who are unprepared.

If you don’t get ready soon, very soon, time will have run out and you will be one more desperate zombie in the crowd willing to accept whatever crumbs and chains they will offer you. Unfortunately, your family will go with you into starvation and chains…or worse.

I see only two possible scenarios playing out to save America as a Constitutional Republic; 1) divine intervention, 2) revolution.

I have serious doubts about divine intervention. Why? Because America no longer loves, let alone serves, God. Why would He bless us when we least deserve it? Maybe He will, but I just don’t see that happening. I pray I am wrong.

And as far as revolution to restore the Constitution and depose tyranny…well, I don’t see enough Americans having the guts, the raw courage, the passion, to “…with a firm Reliance on the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.”

But we, as individuals, as families, as communities, can become outposts of Constitutional principles in harmony with divine and eternal truths. We can save the Constitution within our hearts, our homes, and our communities. But we must do so soon…time is running out.

Yes, I am OK…

Posted on by
Yesterday morning I got a phone call from one of my best friends who I have known for over 45 years. Yup, they were worried about me and my relative silence for the last 6 weeks or so, an hour later we were hanging up. And that got me thinking about how quiet I’ve actually been…in real-life and through the website. I am OK…sort of, kinda, mostly. I’ve had a lot on my mind and I am following some issues very closely and continuing to do some deep research. But mostly I’ve been getting ready for winter here at the glamstead. The week before I was prompted to cut, split, and stack in their woodshed an older couple’s winters worth of firewood. The I felt an extreme urgency to take care of our firewood needs for the winter. Yup, our primary heat source is a wood stove. So last week I started cutting and splitting our firewood. This week I will have completed that task. Oddly I’ve been continually prompted to put up way more firewood than just what our normal needs would be. I will be posting some articles next week, maybe later this week. I received a ton of emails from wonderful folks after my last post, I will respond to those personally this week. Now a weird thing…I woke up this morning at the end of a nightmare…a very disturbing nightmare. Normally I don’t share dreams or nightmares with my wife…other than maybe to tell her occasionally I had one. And I don’t remember the last time I shared one with anyone but my wife. This morning was entirely different. After I became fully awake I felt strongly prompted to post that I am doing okay. I also was hammered with needing to post my nightmare…but not any kind of opinion, explanation or interpretation. I found that strange. But then clear as a bell it came into my mind that whomever read about the nightmare would understand it for them…if they were meant to. So here goes… It was night time, very dark, I was standing over a well casing pipe, maybe 6” – 8”, looking down into the pipe, I could hear people through the pipe, they were underground at the bottom of the well, water was bubbling around them. The people were scared and talking but I couldn’t understand what they were saying, I could only feel their emotion of being frightened. I shouted down to them that I was there and knew they were there, and I would try to help. There was an old, beat-up orange electric extension cord that I began to lower it down to them to let them know I was trying to do something to help, to reassure them. I brought it back up and was starting to tape some chemical glow sticks to the cord to lower it back down so they would be able to see. Some of the sticks I had already activated and they were giving off that green glowing light; there were other sticks that they could activate later. As I began to lower it a man I knew came up and started to yell at me that I would electrocute them. I showed him it wasn’t plugged in. He was in charge of the rescue effort, very professional, very educated, very authoritative, and told me to leave. They would be bringing in all this fancy expensive equipment and tools to perform the rescue and it would be showing up in several days. I knew it would be too late but I didn’t say anything; but I did ask if I could stay and watch the rigging. I was told to stay in the corner and watch but not participate or speak. Everything in the area was cold, damp, dark, and very uncomfortable. At this point I looked down and noticed something odd about the area around the well pipe. I began to ripe it up with my hands because it was very thin and flimsy plywood that was mostly rotted. The man began to help. Then he was gone. Once the plywood was torn away, the well was now 4’ – 6’ across, the walls were smooth river rock, the well was perfectly round, everything was very damp, dark, and a heavy duty steel ladder attached to the wall of the well. It was firmly bolted to the side of the well and very sturdy but the rock sides of the well were very damp and very slippery. The ladder extended all the way to the water’s surface and then into the water. I could see all of this because I had started to lower the beat-up orange extension cord with the glow sticks back down into the well. There were no longer any people in the well that I could hear or see, but I knew they were below the surface of the water and were no longer alive. Some had been standing on the shoulders of others trying to keep their head above water to survive…but no one survived. I then woke up with the strong prompting to share this. The dream might have lasted longer but we slept with the window partially open last night to enjoy the fresh fall air. However, what woke me up this morning was coyotes howling and yipping not too far away. Kind of an eerie sound to wake-up to after a nightmare like that.
If you would like to contact me direct…

Thank you for your response. ✨

Where have I been?

Posted on by
It’s been over 4 weeks since my last post…and no, I haven’t been on vacation. Actually I’ve been working my tail off. Lots of work to do around here preparing for winter and helping out some neighbors. And yes, I’ve been doing research and studying current events as well…because “it” is coming closer every single day. The only thing that has me in front of the keyboard today to some really stiff wind outside and just didn’t want to be out in it. I really enjoyed the weeks long break from the intense time I put into the website. The number one change that occurred…I started sleeping really well and for 8 hours a night. My wife’s alarm woke me up more than once in the last two weeks! And that simply hasn’t happened in 20 years other than a couple of times when I was sick. Since the majority of my time was spent doing roofing, tractor work, firewood cutting, strawberry raised bed building, splitting neighbor’s firewood, and a paying odd job or two I had plenty of time to think about life in general…my life. Interestingly I came to pondering a couple of questions related to the website; 1) How effective is my website in helping people? 2) What more could I possibly do to help website visitors prepare for the calamities that are coming? The answer to #1 was ironically pretty clear…there is no answer to that one. There have been folks who have contacted me and said the website was helpful and they appreciated it. But those numbers have been few. Which is of no surprise based on how folks use the Internet. The best, absolute best, was the family who contacted me and told me they joined the Church through finding and reading my website over a period of months. That was totally and completely worth every minute I’ve spent at the keyboard. The answer to #2 went unanswered. Well, maybe not…but maybe. You see I can’t come up with any single article that I could write that would help someone prepare that I haven’t already written. I have written about food storage, water filtration/storage, medical/first aid, self-defense, Situational Awareness, and tons more. I have written about current events, past events, future events, and I’ve exposed people. I just don’t know what else to write about. I could write about the Gaza/Israeli War…but if you have been following my website for any time now you would know my view…it is an extension of the Ukraine/Russia War…that is turning it all into a wider World War III. But let us not forget…in January 2016 President Obama transferred almost $2billion to Iran, hundreds of millions of that in pallets of cash via planes. Vice-President Biden was in charge of overseeing that operation. Right after that payment to Iran Hamas began a 6-month long war of relentless rocket attacks on Israel. Then last month Biden released $6billion dollars to Iran…and then Hamas strikes Israel one month later. But the ties don’t stop there. Obama’s 2016 payment of nearly $2billion to Iran was at the same time Obama’s agreement with Iran went into effect. The agreement…a timeline to allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. Oh, and don’t forget that Iranian civilian and military leadership started talking about “wiping Israel off the map” ten years earlier. Obama’s plan would ensure Iran’s capability to do so. President Trump scrapped the Iranian nuclear deal in 2018. But, in 2022 President Biden restored the Iranian nuclear deal ensuring Iran to have a nuclear weapons program once again. Earlier this year Iran displayed it’s own designed and built ballistic missile…capable of delivering a nuclear warhead. On the side of the missile was painted “Death to Israel”. Then came the $6billion Biden-Iranian funds deal last month. And then on Saturday came the Hamas attack on Israel. These events are not coincidence, they are not isolated, they are not disconnected…they are purposeful and intentional. But there are more events involved…US military retreat from Afghanistan (Iranian ally) leaving behind 10’s of billions of dollars of military equipment in the hands of radical Islamists…who just happen to help support, train, and arm Hamas. Then there is Biden who purposely and intentionally degraded the US’s ability to provide fuel to the US military by depleting the US strategic oil reserve and also seriously degrading the ability of the US to produce and refine its own oil and gas. Let’s give Biden some more credit…Russia invaded Ukraine and started that war in February 2022…after Biden ‘green-lighted’ that action to Putin on January 18, 2022. The US has poured well over $100billion of military aid into Ukraine hands…exhausting vast stockpiles of US military equipment and munitions. Yup, to the point that is is now estimated that it will take at least 7 years, maybe more, to replace all the equipment and munitions given to Ukraine up to this point. In 2021 the US military failed to meet National Guard and reserve recruitment goals. In 2022 the US military fell far short of its recruitment goals…the US Army fell short by 60%! Then this year the problem is being referred to as “Recruiting Crisis in the Armed Services”. Add to that an historic high in active duty military suicide rate. There is also the statistic that a US military veteran commits suicide every hour in the US. In 2022 the US Congress began investigating the rise in “woke” training (diversity, inclusion, and transgender) vs actual military readiness training. Seems that US military leadership is just as worried about encouraging transgender surgery as its ability to fight wars. Interesting to note that Biden became Commander In Chief in 2021. Are you seeing the big picture clarify yet? Let’s remember that I have been telling you for years that the plan is to induce total chaos, anarchy, and panic…horrifying terror really, among the world’s population…and specifically here in the US and western world. Then people would plead and beg for a solution and relief from all of it. And that is when the world’s controlling elites would put forward their plan…and transition everything. Some call it the “great reset” but that is only part of it. What do you think happens then? These are not isolated events…they are intentional, planned, by design, and specific in nature and purpose. Simply put…this is a battle of good vs evil…and right now evil is winning…BIG TIME! The horrific attack of Hamas against Israel is a part of that plan…and it worked. Israel has responded to the attack on their country…as they should. So let’s bring this into perspective on how far Israel’s response should go… As of this morning, reliable Israeli figures are:
  • 1,100 dead
  • 2,600 injured
  • 48 kidnapped
Israel is a country of 9,000,000 people. Bringing that home to the US (326,000,000 people) the US numbers would be:
  • 40,000 dead
  • 94,000 injured
  • 1,700 kidnapped
How do you think that we, the US, would respond to that? How far would be go?

Israel didn’t suffer a “9/11” as many have said…their losses were 36 times greater in relative terms!!

Think about it…we invaded and destroyed two countries, killed hundreds of thousands of people (men, women, children, and babies) after 9/11. What do you think Israel should and will do? Honestly, its totally their business what they do. So here was the plan…Iran armed, trained, and funded Hamas to attack Israel. Iran knew what the Israeli response would be. And any thinking person knows what the worldwide outcry would/will be as Israel responds. Hell, whack jobs in the US are already condemning Israel…for their response and for Israel causing the attack to begin with! How unbelievably stupid and crazy is that!? So the Iranian plan worked, but they are not alone…they are close allies with Russia, China, North Korea, Turkey, Afghanistan, etc. Let’s hit another point to ponder…Why did the CIA and NSA stay quiet about the Hamas attack, why didn’t they warn Israel? Don’t think for a minute that they, along with the US State Department, didn’t know it was coming! Doubt me? Let’s test it…if the CIA and NSA didn’t know it wasn’t coming then they are a complete and total bunch of failures in every possible aspect. Strange…it is amazing how competent they are with some things…but a complete and total failure here. Strange don’t you think? And really strange when you think that those same agencies work for the same government that just last month released $6,000,000,000 to the country that organized, trained, funded, armed, and authorized the attack against Israel. Strange! Oh, just like they did back in 2016. Strange! But why write all of this…especially when you probably already know all this? I have no earthly idea. I wanted to write about the October 4th FEMA test. That day I left my phone on, heard the test warning, cleared it off my phone, and went back to splitting firewood for my neighbor. See there are folks who thought all kinds of crazy things would happen. The most bizarre I heard was the tone would activate the nano-robots and/or chemicals that were in the COVID vaccine. Turning vaccinated people into Zombies or something. Holy Crap! Have people lost their minds that far? Have people gone that bat-shit crazy with bullshit social media information? Yup! You see, all those people who wasted untold number of hours, probably millions, weren’t doing anything productive. Those people could have been learning valuable first aid skills on YouTube, reading gardening books to grow food to feed their families, maybe even gone tot he range for useful training. There are a hundred other things they could have been doing…productive, informative, relative, smart. But nope, they wasted a bunch of their life going down a rabbit hole that was absolutely worthless…or worse. I think I am at the point where I don’t want to write to the level of dumb asses out there. There is no helping them, they are stuck in and comfortable with rabbit holes…trash that is of no value whatsoever. So what will I write about going forward? I have no idea…maybe just whatever hits me as important and useful. But I assure you…gone are the days where I try to inform or save the “dumb ass” category of so-called preppers. There are plenty of websites that will cater to that lobotomized group. OK, some are sincere and decent folks…I am just fed-up craziness and websites that promote it. Folks, times are insane and dangerous…you know that. You and I also know that time is growing short, very short. Please focus on only those things that are important and will actually help you in the long run; 1) developing and strengthening spirituality and principles, 2) mental preparedness (skills), 3) physical preparedness. I can not stress enough how important this is! I am going to include a ‘feedback form’…use it to tell me anything you want, request anything you want, complain about anything you want…anything at all. Maybe think about it in terms of the two question I asked myself earlier; 1) How effective is my website in helping people? 2) What more could I possibly do to help website visitors prepare for the calamities that are coming? I want to hear from you. And please enjoy your week!
Contact me and let me know and let me know what you are thinking…

Liberty Safes…Seriously, that’s important?

Posted on by

There are important and serious things going on in the world today…Liberty Safe Scandal is not one of them.

It has been known for decades that Liberty Safe has been cooperating with law enforcement, specifically the ATF and the FBI. And folks, not just with the digital keypad safes. Combination safes have an identifying number on them as well. LEOs call Liberty and Liberty would freely and willingly give the LEO the combination.

So it’s not a matter that Liberty licks the boots of LEOs…its that people didn’t take the time to learn of it.

Or, a better question…why would you have anything in your safe that you didn’t want the FBI to know about? Really, if the FBI wanted into your safe…they would get it, period. So why keep stuff in the safe if you didn’t want it found? Court order or blow torch…they getting in!

Now, maybe the right question would be…How did the ATF and FBI convince Liberty Safes to so freely and willingly cooperate in violating the 4th Amendment to destroy the 2nd Amendment?

Maybe it has something to do with the owners of Liberty Safe…Monomoy Capital Partners. And who might they be and what are they all about?

But it really has everything to do with us and our Situational Awareness.

9/11 – Never Forget ! (I won’t)

Posted on by

My memories of 9/11 have faded a little bit over the last 22 years but still pretty vivid for the most part. I find it hard to fathom that there are adults that have no personal memories of that day. Pretty much anyone under the age of 27 or so won’t have any personal recollection of what happened on 9/11. How sad.

But much else is connected to that day…that many have forgotten or never knew…or have blindly ignored. Maybe in the bigger scheme of things, these events are the most important. I haven’t forgotten:

    • The FBI, CIA, ICE, NSA all had information that an attack was coming, knew that the hijackers involved were taking flying lessons, and the terrorists had over stayed their visas. And yet…they failed to stop that horrific event. A bit strange, don’t ya think?
    • In less than two months after 9/11 the Patriot Act was passed and signed into law. The Patriot Act was the single biggest reduction of American rights, liberties, and freedoms in the history of the United States. It created the largest and best funded federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies the world has ever known. Think about that…when has Congress ever moved that fast? And all done by a conservative Republican President and both houses of Congress controlled by Republicans. Think about that one.
    • Barely a month after 9/11 the United States invaded the sovereign nation of Afghanistan and overthrew their government. That invasion began a decades long war with Afghanistan that cost the United States trillions of dollars…and tens of thousands of US military causalities. And along the way we killed 10’s of thousands of Afghanistan civilians…many of which died at the hands of CIA operations during weddings and funerals. And for what? When America finally retreated from Afghanistan we left the Taliban in control, al-Qaeda able to move freely, and gave them billions and billions of dollars of highly advanced military equipment. Huuuummmmmm???
    • 18 months after 9/11 we invaded the sovereign nation of Iraq and overthrew their government. That invasion began a decades long war with Iraq that cost the US trillions of dollars, thousands of US military dead, 10’s of thousands of US military wounded, 250,000-500,000 dead Iraqi civilians, bombed them into the stone-age, and for what again? Tell me again exactly why we invaded Iraq?
    • Let’s talk money…in 2000 Clinton had a budget surplus. Starting with Bush #2 (post-9/11) the US started a budget deficit of $158billion his first year, ended his presidency running $1.4trillion deficit. Obama started with $1.3trillion budget deficits, ended with a $665billion budget deficit. Trump started with $780billion budget deficit, ended with $2.8trillion budget deficit. (note: in 2020 Trump ran up a $3.1trillion budget deficit.) Biden…well, his first year was $1.4trillion, 2023 looks as if it will exceed $2trillion with ease. So our federal government has spent us down a hole each year, Trump being the worst offender. So 2 Democrats and 2 Republican Presidents have no respect for taxpayer money…and no self-control on how they spend it. Oh, FWIW…during those years…both Republicans and Democrats controlled Congress at one time or another.
    • Let’s keep talking money…in 2000 (under Clinton) the US national debt was $5trillion. In 2022 (under Biden) the US national debt had grown to $31trillion. In 2000 (under Clinton) the US national debt equaled 55% of GDP. In 2022 (under Biden) the US national debt equaled 123% of GDP.
    • One last piece of money information…per year average growth in US national debt: Bush averaged $525billion annually, Obama averaged $963billion annually, Trump averaged $1.7trillion annually, and Biden averaged $2.5trillion.

9/11 was a horrific day in the history of America…there is no doubt about that. I lost 343 brother and sister firefighters that day. America lost 3,000 of our citizens that day. A tragedy like none other.

But what has been lost since then has been even more tragic…and it came upon us from the US federal government. We’ve lost 10’s of thousands of military casualties…about 44 veterans now die each day by suicide.

We’ve spent 10’s of trillions of dollars since 9/11 that we didn’t have and for what? For war against sovereign nations that accomplished nothing. And trillions more to create US federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies that are used to take away rights, liberties, and freedoms from US citizens. The same citizens that ironically are paying the bill for that reduction of rights/freedoms/liberty.

How interesting…the US suffers the worst disaster in its history…that our government had ample prior information about…and 22 years later what exactly has happened? How did we respond? What has been gained? What has been lost? Who has really gained since then?

Both Republicans and Democrats Congresses have betrayed us. Four US Presidents, 2-Republicans & 2-Democrats, have betrayed us.

Sooooooooo, maybe the better question to ask…

Why have we, US citizens, allowed all this bullshit to happen in the first place?

No, I will never forget 9/11…nor will I forget the last 22 years.

Care & Share – Results #2

Posted on by
As a result of my article “Care & Share” on 8/27 I have been sent a bunch of feedback on what some wonderful folks have been doing the last few months. I posted the first batch of results last week, here is batch #2. Keep the info coming…send me what you see happening by great folks out there.

This is the stuff we need!!!

1) Neighbor found out that an older retired couple had run out of dog food for their 5 rescue dogs 1 week before social security checks would arrive. They went and got a couple of 40# bags of dog food to see them through. 2) Man saw his neighbor trying to build a small house without the proper power tools. He lent them a table saw, miter saw, drill, circular saw, and a planer/joiner for weeks, and he put in 40+ hours of labor to help them out. 3) A neighbor in a remote community saw there was no fire protection or water for the road maintenance. She bought a used water trailer and had it refitted with a brand new pump for the community to use. 4) A PTSD counselor met a couple at a small dinner get-together and saw there were problems. He met with them a number of times to help them work through a tender situation. 5) Local American Legion Post started an annual project where they get firewood from donated sources, then split it, and deliver it to the elderly, especially widows, who are in need. Please keep it up…we all need to give and receive! Let me know what people are going in your area.
Contact me and let me know how people are helping each other…

I’m tired…anyone else?

Posted on by
  It started about a month ago…just being tired. And ‘tired’ in just about every aspect…physically, mentally, and even a little on the spiritual side as well. Last week I felt like I needed to write about it. Maybe to get it off my chest, or maybe there is someone else out there who is tired and needs to know they are not alone.    
I know my being tired stems partly from our world today…
  • I am tired of an incompetent, mentally insane, pervert President that is also the head of an international crime family.
  • I am tired of a Department of Justice that is anything but.
  • I am tired of an FBI that kills at will…and is dedicated to protecting the Biden Crime Family at all costs.
  • I am tired of a Republican Party that is all but worthless…actually, more like complicit.
  • I am tired of people who can steal at will and stores don’t even try to stop them anymore. Worse yet, states even sanction it now with no jail time and even no bond requirements.
  • I am tired of hearing about our veterans…a bunch who are homeless and too many vets killing themselves everyday…while we send $100+billion to a country to pay their politicians, their government employees, and to prolong a war that could have been peacefully settled long ago had we kept out noses out of it.
  • I am tired of drag queen perverts infecting our children with their filth during “story time” events.
  • I am tired of doctors mutilating children’s genitalia in the name of some freakish sexual beliefs…and not going to prison for it.
  • I am tired of government schools brainwashing our children with crap that isn’t even remotely true or accurate…all to advance a socialist/progressive agenda.
  • I am tired of politicians who lie about everything and get rich through their criminal political activity.
  • I am tired of the world’s rich elites getting richer and richer every day while so many hardworking regular folks have a hard time putting food on the table or gas in their vehicle.
Okay, you get my point. But I am also tired of my leg not being ‘right’ after almost 2 hours on the operating table two months ago. I am tired of my other leg needing the same surgery but now not thinking it is worth it. I am tired of getting radiation treatments for cancer. I am tired of worrying about cancer. I am tired of a really, really bad allergy season. Some more bitching and complaining…
  • I am tired of my grass being too brown all summer when it should have been rich green.
  • I am tired of tending to my garden each and every day.
  • I am tired of neighbors all around me needing and asking for my help…and my own projects getting pushed to the back.
  • I am tired of seeing so many of my long-time friends die this past year.
  • I am tired of so many of my close friends and relatives getting seriously sick with cancer and other really nasty stuff the last few months.
  • I am tired of getting old.
  • I am tired of 4’ long, 26 pound zucchinis hiding in my garden under a zucchini plant just slightly smaller than my house.
Okay I am done…at least for now. Bottom line…I am tired. I know I can’t be the only one. Are you tired? Then along comes Oliver Anthony’s “Rich Men North of Richmond”…

I’ve been sellin’ my soul, workin’ all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay So I can sit out here and waste my life away Drag back home and drown my troubles away

It’s a damn shame what the world’s gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is

Livin’ in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don’t think you know, but I know that you do ‘Cause your dollar ain’t shit and it’s taxed to no end ‘Cause of rich men north of Richmond

I wish politicians would look out for miners And not just minors on an island somewhere Lord, we got folks in the street, ain’t got nothin’ to eat And the obese milkin’ welfare

God, if you’re 5 foot 3 and you’re 300 pounds Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds Young men are puttin’ themselves six feet in the ground ‘Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin’ them down

Lord, it’s a damn shame what the world’s gotten to For people like me and people like you Wish I could just wake up and it not be true But it is, oh, it is

Livin’ in the new world With an old soul These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don’t think you know, but I know that you do ‘Cause your dollar ain’t shit and it’s taxed to no end ‘Cause of rich men north of Richmond

I’ve been sellin’ my soul, workin’ all day Overtime hours for bullshit pay

I guess I am not completely alone.   Here is Oliver Anthony singing his song…from his yourtube channel. Please, if you want to hear his song, play his video from his channel so he makes a little money from it…not some other youtuber version.
Contact me and let me know how you’re feeling, or am I the only one?
