Things are heating up across the globe. It isn’t just Ukraine. Taiwan is squarely in the Chinese Communist Party’s crosshairs. Iran is turning more militant. North Korea is testing weapons again. Wars and rumors of wars are abundant.
Then, there’s Pandemic Panic Theater. Just when we thought they’d done their worst with Omicron and it fizzled on them, reports of new variants as well as “more dangerous” versions of Omicron are making the news. And just as many lockdowns are ending, more seem to be in the planning stage for whatever the powers-that-be have waiting around the corner, most likely near election time in the United States.
Supply chains are crumbling. Stock markets are crashing. Crypto restrictions are coming. Employment remains an enigma. I’m generally not a doom-and-gloom guy, but I’m truly worried about an economic collapse on the horizon for the first time ever.
I didn’t freak out when Y2K was supposed to take down the world’s technology. I didn’t panic over the 2008-09 housing market collapse because I figured the economy still had the resilience to bounce back eventually, and I was correct. Obamacare got me a little worried in 2010-11, so we began our first mini-foray into “prepping” by getting a couple of bugout bags and a few buckets of freeze dried food. But it was just a phase and eventually my fears subsided.
The Trump era brought hope for continued prosperity until Covid-19 came around. When the toilet-paper-apocalypse sprung into inexplicable effect in 2020, I was among those who called for calm and lambasted those who bought a year’s supply of Charmin, not because prudence is unappreciated but because they were manufacturing scarcity for the rest of us. Throughout it all, I never thought the economic collapse was around the corner.
Today, I do.
I am new to the whole “prepping” thing, but I’ve done extensive research over the past few months in anticipation of where we’re at today. By no means am I an expert nor am I an economist, but I see gas and food prices rising rapidly and that’s enough to chap my khakis. You see it as well. You’ve probably taken some steps to get ready, but if you’re like most Americans you’re not really ready at all.
Christian-Driven America-First Precious Metals.
Before markets collapse, the smart play is to move wealth or retirement to precious metals. Contact Genesis Gold now to make it happen smoothly with no hassles from a group driven by fellowship.
In this episode of The Midnight Sentinel, I explained why I’m turning at least some of my attention towards helping people prepare for what’s to come. As always, the biggest concern is being spiritually prepared. All the survival food and ammunition in the world is worthless if you do not have faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.
Beyond that, the physical needs are great in a near-future America in which stores and retailers like Amazon are no longer stocked with items necessary for survival. While most preppers recommend starting with 72-hour bugout bags, the various potential crises we face are more suited for bugging in. This is why I prioritize short-term food and water storage. Make sure you have enough food and water for two weeks, then a month, than a couple of months. MyPatriotSupply is the sponsor that we recommend for that.
As for water, most people underestimate this. It takes approximately one gallon of water per person per day to survive.
After you’re stocked up for bugging in, it’s time to get ready for bugging out. I’ll be posting more stories and articles about this in the future. For now, recognizing that we face multiple threats and realizing there’s a strong chance the supply chain will fully crumble in the near future is a good start.
In the second segment, I spoke to Our Gold Guy, Ira. It’s funny that after 300 shows, I never had him on before today. The volatility in financial markets sparked by Russia and the threat of China makes physical precious metals a hot topic. Ira’s wealth of knowledge was appreciated. You can schedule a precious metals consultation with him on our other website.
It’s not time to panic yet, but it’s definitely time to prepare. Things are getting strange on multiple fronts. It’s better to prepare and not need it than to be unprepared when you need it.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
