Remember the false narrative about WMDs in Iraq? That was so the US politicians could invade and steal oil. That’s called disinformation, and the US Government is a leader in its practice and implementation. Disinformation is misleading or false information, such as a mainstream “narrative,” that is deliberately deceptive. It’s worse than misinformation, which is not always deliberate. Narratives are often never attributed to any particular source, besides other false narratives, that all just circle back to each other as “sources,” as witnessed with the long-standing Russia-Collusion hoax after Trump won the presidency.
Over time, disinformation can affect memory and influence actions of those who become emotionally connected or “brainwashed,” even after that incorrect information is retracted. The role of social media should not be underrated, especially among millennials and today’s youth, as disinformation coming from the US government through those portals has been nothing short of a disinformation tsunami.
Advances in technology have helped the CDC and Biden Regime rapidly spread disinformation about disease, climate, war, and resources
Young folks, including young adults, teens, and children, are quick to believe everything they see and hear on social media, YouTube, and by searching via Google. They don’t watch much TV news, talk shows, or read the newspapers, like the older generations still do. For example, entire communities of young people are convinced the world is getting hotter due to human activity and that we’ll all die of heat if we don’t stop using gasoline in the next decade or two. That’s environmental disinformation spread by regulatory agencies, like the EPA, on a grand scale.
Nearly all Democrats and Liberals are still wearing their bacteria-breeding masks from the pandemic, either out of sheer brainwashing (paranoia) or as a sense of collusion, or both. They don’t understand that the masks were always just a form of communist control of the populace, to see how badly they could be coerced, and to help breed disease and disorder during the scamdemic. Talk about a contagious form of disinformation. It was the masks that went “viral,” more so than any virus or “gain of function” parasites. Then came the Covid clot shots and the most dangerous and deadly disinformation campaign the world has ever known. It’s nothing short of a Vaccine Holocaust, and it’s still happening.
For politicians to continue embezzling American taxpayer funds on the grandest of scales, they must invoke war and somehow brainwash a large swath of citizens to support it. This is the case with the “War on Ukraine.” The brainwashing is right there in the name, as it declares that the war is ON them, and so they must be defended, as if the leaders of that nation are innocent of horrific crimes and NATO-funded atrocities. In fact, several chemical warfare bio-labs were built, funded, and revealed there, but the disinformation campaign by Beijing Biden and his cohorts has convinced many Americans otherwise. Ukraine forces are Nazi-sympathizers and deserve no assistance from our country, especially while the USA is suffering its own economic woes and supply chain dismantling.
The food, money, and gun grab is core to the Biden Regime turning America into a socialist and communist hell-hole
Food shortages in America are well planned, but the socialist regime does not want anyone to realize it, so the disinformation campaign on that runs deep. Everything but the purposeful supply chain crippling is to blame, including “Russia’s war on Ukraine,” climate change, random fires and explosions at food processing factories, bird flu, and wait for it… Americans who won’t eat bugs instead of meat and eggs.
Between the Obama regime and the Biden regime, over $15 trillion dollars has been printed and disappeared into thin air. None was spent on education, infrastructure, or military defense systems. It’s just gone. Some was given as handouts to keep people reliant on Big Government, only to try to ensure future votes from lazy, unemployed peons, illegal immigrants, and drug addicts. The disinformation campaign about money is splattered everywhere, while the tyrants in Washington DC (along with their globalist cohorts) try to rob the rest of the world of every single penny.
Then there are always disinformation campaigns run by the Democrats right after mass shootings. Most mass shootings occur when young men, often Democrats themselves, take psychotropic SSRI medications and use registered weapons to shoot up a school, mall, or movie theatre. Sometimes those events are completely staged by the FBI. Still, the disinformation narratives run across all mass media and social media so the ‘Dirty Dems’ can attempt to take away all guns from Americans and nullify the second amendment of the Constitution. This is nothing new, and it never works.
One of the first large-scale disinformation campaigns came with the Vietnam War, where American politicians continually lied and told American citizens we were “winning” the war, while putting Blacks on the front lines in what was later termed the “meat grinder.” Martin Luther King tried to blow the whistle on this disinformation campaign, but he was shot to death for it.

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

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