Editor’s Note: Stop the presses! The fat lady is about to sing. For the first time in the history of this publication, we are going to post a story from… wait for it… MSN. Granted, it wasn’t written by them. They pulled the story from some publication that I can’t actually source since the story doesn’t appear to be on their site, but that’s not important.
Thankfully, I didn’t have to go to MSN to get this list put together. Principia Scientific International did the honors, so I’ll link to them instead of to a corporate media site. Here’s their post…
In 2013, Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor, leaked classified documents that revealed the extent of the U.S. government’s surveillance programs.
The documents showed that the NSA was collecting phone records of millions of Americans and spying on foreign governments and individuals. Snowden’s revelations sparked a global debate about government surveillance and privacy rights.
This wasn’t the first or last conspiracy theory that was revealed to be true in the end.
Operation Mockingbird
The CIA’s covert operation to control the media by planting stories and manipulating the news was exposed in the 1970s.
The Lavon Affair
In 1954, Israeli agents planted bombs in US and UK targets in Egypt to frame Muslim Brotherhood militants and damage US-Egyptian relations. The operation became known as the Lavon affair after the Israeli defense minister, Pinhas Lavon, who was forced to resign.
CIA Assassinations
The CIA was involved in multiple assassinations of foreign leaders, including Patrice Lumumba of Congo and Salvador Allende of Chile.
COINTELPRO
The FBI’s Counterintelligence Program was aimed at disrupting and discrediting political organizations in the US. It included illegal surveillance, infiltration, and harassment of civil rights leaders and anti-war activists.
The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment
From 1932 to 1972, the US Public Health Service conducted an unethical medical experiment on African American men with syphilis, without their knowledge or consent.
The Iran-Contra Affair
In the 1980s, the US sold weapons to Iran and used the proceeds to fund Contra rebels in Nicaragua, despite a congressional ban on such funding.
Operation Gladio
A secret NATO network of anti-communist “stay-behind” armies operated in Europe from the 1950s to the 1990s. It was involved in numerous terrorist attacks and assassinations.
Watergate
The Watergate Scandal is considered one of the most significant political scandals in US history. The scandal involved the Nixon administration, which was accused of breaking into the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters in the Watergate complex to spy on their political opponents. The scandal eventually led to Nixon’s resignation and several White House officials being indicted and convicted.
Operation Northwoods
Operation Northwoods was a proposed false flag operation by the US government in the 1960s to stage terrorist attacks against US citizens to justify a war with Cuba. The plan was rejected by then-President Kennedy, but it was later revealed through declassified documents.
The Iran Hostage Crisis
The 1979 hostage crisis at the US embassy in Tehran was initially dismissed by some as a staged event to demonize Iran. However, it was later confirmed to be a genuine crisis.
The BCCI Scandal
The Bank of Credit and Commerce International was a corrupt bank that laundered money for drug cartels, terrorists, and corrupt politicians. Its downfall in the 1990s exposed widespread corruption in the banking industry.
Prohibition Poisonings
From 1920 to 1933, the U.S. government put a ban on all alcoholic sales due to the ethical and moral corruption it was hypothesized to cause. During this period, the government began adding toxic chemicals to industrial alcohol to discourage people from drinking it.
The chemicals used included things like kerosene, gasoline, and formaldehyde, which led to thousands of deaths and illnesses. Despite the risks, the government continued to poison alcohol until Prohibition was repealed in 1933.
The Business Plot
In 1933, wealthy businessmen allegedly planned a coup to overthrow President Roosevelt and install a fascist government. The plot was exposed by Marine Corps General Smedley Butler.
The Iran-Contra Drug Trafficking
The Contra rebels funded by the US government were involved in drug trafficking to finance their activities. The CIA was aware of the drug trade but turned a blind eye.
Operation Ajax
The US and UK orchestrated a coup in Iran in 1953 to overthrow Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh, who had nationalized the country’s oil industry.
MK-Ultra
MK-Ultra was a CIA project in the 1950s and 60s that involved mind control experiments on human subjects. The experiments included the use of drugs, hypnosis, and other forms of psychological torture. The project was initially denied by the CIA, but it was later confirmed through declassified documents.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
The Gulf Of Tonkin Incident
The 1964 attack on the USS Maddox in the Gulf of Tonkin was used as a pretext for US involvement in the Vietnam War. Declassified documents later revealed that the attack never happened.
The Manhattan Project
The top-secret US government project to develop the first atomic bomb was kept hidden from the public until after the bombs were dropped on Japan in 1945.
The Roswell Incident
The Roswell Incident has long been a topic of debate among conspiracy theorists, with many believing that the U.S. government covered up evidence of an alien spacecraft crash in 1947. While the government initially denied any knowledge of the incident, it later admitted that it had in fact been involved in the recovery of a “flying disc.”
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.
These are not necessarily “conspiracy theories,” but many are just secret government actions, not all of which are bad actions from a standpoint of national security. The Manhattan project put the US on the fast track not just to develop a bomb but to develop it before Germany did, also in a fast track. The whiners that say the bomb was unnecessary forget that if Germany had completed the research first, America across the ocean would have been the target instead of Japan, which means if that had happened, these snowflakes wouldn’t be here to throw stones at America.
So true. There’s a picture taken by the Nazis towards the very end of WW2 (Nazi archives), from a Junkers 390, of the Manhattan skyline from about 20 miles out in the Atlantic. The Junkers 390 was one of 3 humongous transport planes capable of flying transatlantic round trip on one fueling The Nazis were very close to having an A bomb and that might of been a dry run.
Lucky for future America hating snowflakes, The Nazi war machine collapsed.
Add, 9-11, COVID, clot shots, Bohemian Grove, Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, Sandy Hoax, War in Ukraine, Libyan arms smuggling, every color revolution of the last 70 years, The Great Reset, Georgia Guidestones, Club of Rome, WEF, IMF, EU, North American Union, Global Government, depopulation agenda… And the list goes on….
Uh oh. You said Sandy Hoax. That’s s billion dollar default judgement judgement from the corrupt courts, right there!
Add to that baby berth registrations in this country, add phony U.S. Citizenship, add Russia bad.
I was not aware that the government had admitted to recovering a flying disk at Roswell. Anyone have a citation for this one? Google just returned junk, like Google does.
I’ve never heard that one, either.

At no point EVER will I be convinced that Biden received 81 million legitimate votes.
1000% Correct!
Many of these are not “conspiracy theories.” Watergate, for example, was never disbelieved… now the theory that CIA agents perpetrated it to sink Nixon is a conspiracy theory, and likely true.
BINGO! Like Reagan (attempted assassination) and Trump, normalizing relations with the Russians is frowned upon.
The existence of Area 51was denied for years by the US government.
The lone gunmen theory behind the Kennedy assassination.
Benghazi
WMD in Iraq as a pretext for the first Gulf War.
How about when philly PD bombed a neighborhood
The CIA created the term “Conspiracy Theory” after JFK was assassinated by the CIA because the American people never bought the magic bullet theory & lone Ass Assin BS. By the way the operation was overseen by Elder CIA Pres Bush with the Ass istance of Senator Cruz’s Daddy who were both photographed in Dallas that day and Both CIA Operatives. Elder Bush’s Daddy Prescott Bush was 1 of the Co-Conspirators trying to overthrow Roosevelt & with his banking cronies who Funded Hitler – All Good Little NAZIs. There is No Such Thing as a “Conspiracy Theory” either there Is a Conspiracy or there Isn’t. Just your everyday typical Brainwashing, Programming, Propaganda, Social Media Mind Control & Emotion Control brought to you by the Powers That Be AKA Demons AKA Satan’s Minions AKA real Pieces of Chit.
What about the cover-up of Satan the Antichrist announced in the Apocalypse in the Bible?
Obama the Antichrist took over government and has stifled freedom of speech to cover up his tracks.
Thankfully Newsweek blew the whistle on him in this article.
Belief Watch: Is Obama the Antichrist?
But we’ve still got to take the garbage out now and reveal him, break the news everywhere and carry out our duty of being the Chosen Ones that go to heaven.
You had me for a little while. Watergate was a CIA op and everyone who was arrested on site worked for the CIA. Nixon had nothing to do with it. Why would he bug the Democrats, he was going to win in a landslide, everybody knew it, and he did. And it was the biggest landslide in U.S. history. The entire premise didn’t make sense then, and doesn’t make sense now. Since you got that so terribly wrong, I must assume this entire article is just as flawed.
The Rest of the Story regarding the Gulf of Tonkin Incident is that Admiral Morrison was the Dad of that Lizard King himself Jim Morrison singer for The Doors!
People are strange.
And all of this, along with the rest of our “accepted history”, will become unimportant the minute that the population finally realises that we are about to go thru the biggest change in the history of mankind. If folks only knew how big our “galactic metamorphosis” truly is, they would not waste their time listening to the MSM spout out their distraction narrative and brainwashing techniques just to keep John Q Public in the dark about what is REALLY going on…
Sleight of hand folks. sleight of hand…Why do you think the NEWS is free?……
