(WND)—The latest warning making the rounds concerns the least-qualified person being the most likely person to be the next president of the United States. The call has gone out to the citizens! Get ready to fight the existential threat of the Obama team’s fourth term. And we pause for a moment of mournful prayer. None of us can see the future, to be sure (except maybe once). But, given the present circumstance, we had damned-well better exercise our suspicions.
I rarely write in the first person, but, here, I must suspect my own thinking first, and let others confess or deny their own gullibility, without my making any accusations. Am I alone in being encouraged by the assurances of victory of these incessant drum-beating polls concerning the coming battle of the Titans? OK, maybe more like the battle between the Titan, Trump, and that other, well-past-his-expiration fellow, old Joe Biden. But how can any righteous being in this long-suffering nation not hear these daily lopsided polling reports, as music to the ears?
But, “fool me once,” etc., etc.
I remember, being nearly overcome with a joyful certainty, both in ’16 and ’20, that the forces opposing Trump’s MAGA were so patently pathetic that victory was assured. Being right, one time out of two, is never much comfort when you’re counting the times that we avoided a coup. Hmm. Is this a bit of déjà vu?
I remember deciding to skip the clot shot and being encouraged by all the information that was surfacing about the actual impotency of the China flu, if addressed with prompt symptomatic treatment (hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, any available inflammation-reducing treatments, administered immediately, etc.) and the gradually emerging but stark evidence of the deadly consequence of taking the “safe and effective” “vaccine.” I wrote an article calling it genocide. I thought we were about to turn the corner!
Instead, what emerged was a worldwide administrative state in lockstep denial of what has become obvious to the billions who now take a pass, opting out of any further administrations of the poison. We have gone from a planetary flood of the sadly fooled to a trickle of benighted, still willing, pin cushions. Despite this the promotions by Big Pharma, Big Gov and Big Media have continued. They are still running ads for the “vaccines.” And we still have no shortage of doctors who, in blinding fear, continue to carry the murderous party line. They’ve made enough money, by now to buy almost anyone – and gathered power enough to threaten, with professional and social extinction, anyone contra-indicating their deadly prescription.
I can remember being very excited to hear the prognosticated “news,” in 2020. Surely, one thought, as election fraud case after case was kicked up to the next higher court, the Supreme Court would inevitably have to hear the petition for relief, put forth by no less than 19 sovereign states. But it was not to be. Logically, it would seem to the rational mind the wholesale theft of America could never have begun or proceeded without the certainty of that outcome arranged and known in advance. Maybe they just had to improvise and lucked out, but an ace of blackmail spades up their sleeve for one or two of the Supremes seems more probable.
I remember watching “2,000 Mules” and writing some nonsense about the Kraken having been finally located. At last, the proof positive had been revealed with mathematically provable clarity. But so much as a mention of “2,000 Mules” was universally suppressed, even by Fox News and NewsMax.
So, now comes the time, to stop and measure the degree to which propaganda can utterly smother the truth.
Now comes the time to watch what we ourselves are thinking and question the origins of the viewpoint. Did we hink it out? Or did we simply succumb to hostile influences that are strategically offering us something we would really much rather believe?
I would gladly agree to be giddy at the vision of the wretched Biden falling before the Trump juggernaut. But, aha! Be still my pounding heart! Let’s move the issue about a foot to the north and think about it.
Biden is already toast, to be sure. Talking Democrat shills are starting to spread the word, even now.
What is being portrayed by the propaganda arm of the DNC, and apparently soothing even many on the right? What a conundrum! What a fatal trap has ensnared the left! Not only is old Joe uninterested in stepping aside, but they have no one else who can reliably replace him!
Don’t believe it. It’s an ambush.
Head fake No. 1: Well, it’s really up to Joe, whatever he decides to do. [Not.]
Head fake No. 2: Michelle O. really doesn’t want to get her hands dirty. Maybe she’s just too sensitive or too lazy. [Not.]
Head fake No. 3: Barack’s team isn’t really running the show. Joe is in charge now. He only has half of Barack’s old staffers, working as half of Joe’s new staffers, because Obama’s just a generous guy. [Not.]
Head fake No. 4: Michelle’s not even running a primary challenge, so it’s all out of the question. [Not.]
There are voices on the right, just now coming out of the ether, acknowledging the high probability of Joe stroking out (or whatever) just after his nomination is confirmed, leaving the Dems “no choice” but to name a favored replacement. Michelle Obama will take to the mic and claim it’s not a job she wants, but to save the country she is willing. And never you mind about my qualifications. Because I will have the most qualified adviser in America by my side.
Remember this. Michelle remains among America’s most beloved. The women’s vote. The black vote. Everything the Dems have to rely on. Plus, the Obama name has long since proved its mettle. And, if Trump prevails, the same manner of lawfare unjustly used against him may well be justly addressed to vanquish the treasonous, who have been doing all things possible to destroy America. So, think about it Michelle. You and Barack could play good cop/bad cop all day long, and all of America will still love you, as if your name were Oprah Obama.
The point here is that, for now, campaigning against Biden may be the fools’ mission of the century. The most logical thing is to raise the alarm, identify Biden, once and for all, as the Obama proxy that he is, and address the Obama-Biden regime as one and the same, a nation-destroying team, with our erstwhile heroine, Michelle, the next bitter slugger on deck.

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.
