There have been all kinds of bad and bogus narratives about our open southern border with Mexico. The narratives prove real investigative journalism in this country is now officially dead. The most common narrative these days (if we hear anybody attempting journalism at all) goes like this, “Is Joe Biden completely incompetent about our open southern border, or is he just clueless?”
Anybody who has been following globalist billionaire George Soros and his Open Society Foundation knows that he wants open borders for America, which will destroy our sovereignty. Their misinformation campaign of Soros begins when this question is asked, and then he answers:
“Is the United States an open society?
We are an open society. The principles of an open society are enshrined in the Declaration of Independence. And the institutions of our democracy are protected by our Constitution. The fact that we have a bunch of far-right ideologues in our executive branch does not turn us into a totalitarian dictatorship.”
Some adhere to the idea that America must be an “open society” rather than a “capitalist economy.” Some adhere to America must be a “managed democracy,” as of a book written in 1927. Those who are nationalists adhere to the ideal we are a “constitutional republic” before anything else.
“Why America is Not An Open Society”
Those who adhere to the teachings and beliefs of Soros argue America is a “society,” not an “economy.” We should be about people and not profit margins.
The problem with this is Soros and others with average thinking abilities know that when a society has more takers than makers, the system (whether you want to call it a society or economy) is unsustainable. We have already seen this in terms of blue “Death Spiral States” such as California and Illinois. Liberal Democrat policies are causing major corporations to close shops, and corporate headquarters are moving from these states. Whether you want to look at Tesla leaving California or Caterpillar leaving Illinois, the liberal policies forced upon the corporations and residences of these states are causing a mass exodus making a bad situation go from bad to worse.
When Democrat blue states allow for the lawlessness of liberal blue voters while severely and unconstitutionally prosecuting red voters simply trying to protect their own, America becomes dysfunctional.
The most disturbing aspect of these liberal globalist Democrats is they are gaslighters at the least and out-and-out liars and the most. Take a recent Wall Street Journal article of George Soros, where he cited a bogus study of the socialist left.
On March 15, 2022, a left-wing advocacy organization called The Third Way published a 15-page study with the provocative title “The Red State Murder Problem.” The report was written by Jim Kessler, a long-time Democratic policy director to Representative/Senator Charles “Chuck” Schumer, and Kylie Murdock, a former intern for Congresswoman Barbara Lee. She also served as a volunteer for Elizabeth Warren for President. Their study stated that the “murder rates are far higher in Trump-voting red states than Biden-voting blue states.”
The only problem with their report is it was a complete and utter lie, and they most probably knew so! The quickest way to call out bogus “researchers” is to challenge them to an open public debate with peers in their field. THEY NEVER ACCEPT THE OFFER, EVEN FOR PAY!
Dr. Tony Fauci is a good recent example after being challenged by entrepreneur billionaire Steve Kirsch to come to debate the Covid-19 pandemic and resultant vaccines that are not really vaccines at all but experimental drugs with unknown/unproven end results.
So this red state/city lie report comes out about crime being higher in Trump MAGA country. Of course, dozens of media outlets, including The Washington Post, The Hill, Inside Edition, Politifact, The Daily Beast, Los Angeles Magazine, the San Francisco Examiner, NBC News18, and many others, picked up this “study” and rabidly reported on its “findings.”
Americans are not stupid. That is why they are fleeing blue states in droves for red states.
Chicago and New York are well-known killing fields, even though the mainstream media no longer gives much reporting time to the senselessness of the crimes committed there.
So what is the end game of George Soros and his desire for open borders?
It may surprise many readers that you can legally bet on something (society or economy) to fail and profit from that failure. I first learned of this as a youth in agriculture. The publication Successful Farming did a really good editorial with an explanation on this about a year ago:
“The coming year may be a year to buy put options and perhaps sell less than you normally would. Puts provide you the right (not the obligation) to be short (sell) futures. You can think of puts like insurance against lower prices. Puts establish a price floor. Leave the crop in the bin and expected production unpriced to appreciate in value if prices rally.”
Even with this knowledge as a youth, I was shocked and horrified when this method was used as part of an insider trading or informed trading incident on 9-11-2001. A handful of investors took output options that both American and United airliners were going to go down that day, and, of course, they did.
While some “independent fact checkers” (aka gaslighters) tried to state this story was a conspiracy theory, Press for Truth offered a video that confirmed it is exactly true and another example of the FBI being derelict in duty!
The video that includes snippets of “The International Hearings on the Events of September 11, 2001” offers testimonies by experts that prove that those individuals who bet on these airliners failing on this particular day were no coincidence!

Also see the journal report titled “Unusual Option Market Activity and the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001”.
George Soros is betting on America to fail. He is actively working for it to do so in several ways.
- He controls the narrative of our news. Media Research Center (MRC) reports liberal billionaire George Soros is tied to at least 253 media organizations around the world by funding them.
- He funds campaigns of liberal prosecutors for cities and states. Chicago’s Kim Foxx is one such abysmal failure in her biased handling of the Jussie Smollett hoax, which caused the Chicago Police Department to actually have to threaten her if she did not do her job in prosecuting him. (Smollett alleged he was attacked by some guys wearing MAGA caps in downtown Chicago who attacked him for his race and homosexuality. In fact, he paid two guys he knew to rough him up as part of a publicity stunt.
- He funds states and cities that promote cashless bail, such as Illinois, with their new 2023 SAFE-T Act.
- He funds political candidates who promote sanctuary cities.
- He funds political candidates who support open borders.
And if you still think George is such as great man simply putting people over profits, go back and watch his “60 Minutes” interview of December 20, 1998, where Soros, himself, admitted to Steve Kroft that he had no regrets whatsoever about assisting the Nazis in confiscating property from the Jewish people during the Holocaust. Or maybe go see the part he played in the collapse of the Bank of England on September 16, 1992, on “Black Wednesday” when speculators “broke the pound.” You could do a deep dive as to why several countries starting with Russia, have International Arrest Warrants out on him. And while much of this is heavily hidden on the Internet these days, the story of Myanmar seizing Soros bank accounts with 11 arrest warrants issued for Open Society Foundation employees is not.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
So make no mistake, Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats who have supported our open southern border in the past and are now stonewalling discussion about the humanitarian crisis developing today are not stupid or inept. They are on George’s payroll, which is willful and intentional treason!
It is estimated some new 5 million “takers” have entered the United States from 160 countries in the form of illegal immigrants since Joe Biden assumed the Oval Office. When America fails, and it will, George Soros and all of them need to be removed by force.

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.
