(WND)—With the arrest last week of media mogul “SEAN COMBS, a/k/a ‘Puff Daddy,’ a/k/a ‘P. Diddy,’ a/k/a ‘PD,’ a/k/a ‘Love'” – it would appear that high profile Democratic movers and shakers are allowed a long leash before the law reels it in.
Combs stands accused of, among other crimes, “sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.” The charges against Combs and his “enterprise” date back to 2009.
In the 15 years since, while his perverse behavior was an open secret, any number of Democratic candidates, Kamala Harris included, solicited his support.
On April 10, 2020, for instance, Harris tweeted, “Thank you,@Diddy, for hosting this town hall last night. There’s a lot at stake for our communities right now and it’s critical we bring to the forefront how coronavirus is perpetuating racial inequality and health disparities.”
Combs is also accused of sexually exploiting minors, performers Usher and Justin Bieber among them.
Having established that, yes, Democrats are capable of running secret sex rings, it might be time to reexamine the most hush-hush Democratic sex scandal of all,”Pizzgate.”
In researching my book “Ashli: The Untold Story of the Women of January 6,” I took my first serious look at this potential scandal.
I say “potential” because an event becomes a “scandal” only when the New York Times calls it a “scandal” on its front page. “Diddygate” has crossed this Rubicon. “Pizzagate” is nowhere close.
What got me interested was the Times’ headline about the death of Ashli Babbitt on Jan. 7, 2021, “Woman Killed in Capitol Embraced Trump and QAnon.”
The Times might have mentioned that Ashli was a 14-year Air Force veteran, but the media were obsessed with QAnon.
In its initial article on Ashli, the Times made the unsourced claim that QAnon “has asserted that the 2020 presidential election was stolen by an elite Satan-worshiping cabal, and that it was up to ordinary people to reinstate Mr. Trump.”
In fact, the Q phenomenon does have a strong association with Pizzagate, the reputed high-level ring of pedophiles that involves, most prominently, John Podesta, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign chair.
The Left, of course, ridicules Pizzagate, and the respectable conservative media dare not even mention it, but before readers dismiss it, they might watch the movie “Out of Shadows.”
Among the people featured in the film is Liz Crokin, a veteran reporter and columnist who sacrificed any career ambitions she might have had to report on child sex trafficking.
Said Crokin, “I was basically embraced by the mainstream media until I started reporting on Pizzagate.”
Her deconstruction of the coded language in the Podesta emails obtained by WikiLeaks could make a Times fact-checker sweat. “I’d be willing to debate anyone who thinks Pizzagate has been debunked,” said Crokin.
Crokin is dismayed that “there has not been one single investigation into any of it.”
No doubt, prominent Democrats had been behaving badly in the run-up to the 2020 election. Anthony Weiner, Harvey Weinstein and Hunter Biden come quickly to mind.

Other than perhaps Podesta, none proved more dangerous to the existing order than celebrity pedophile and Democratic prince, Jeffrey Epstein. After years of being protected, Epstein was arrested in 2018.
His secrets intact, he died in jail soon after in an incident that vaguely resembled a suicide. Although Epstein’s client list remains more closely guarded than Barack Obama’s SAT scores, the story of his child trafficking is well enough known.
Less well known is the saga of Keith Raniere, in the words of the New York Daily News, the “creepy leader of the woman-branding sex cult.”
Just a week before the November 2020 election, Raniere was sentenced to 120 years in prison. Among other diabolic acts, Raniere had sex with minors, created and distributed pornography with their images, and forced the girls to have abortions if they became pregnant.
Given the timing of his sentencing, the media downplayed Raniere’s relationship with Sara and Clare Bronfman, the youngest daughters of the late Seagram’s chair and Democratic megadonor, Edgar Bronfman.
A recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Bill Clinton in 1999, Bronfman supported Hillary in the 2008 campaign before backing Barack Obama in the general election.
Those were the circles in which high-profile Democrats ran. Malia Obama interned with Harvey Weinstein. Bill Clinton logged frequent flyer miles on Epstein’s “Lolita Express.”
Hillary Clinton intimate Huma Abedin married Anthony Weiner. A few years earlier, the Hollywood Left gave child rapist Roman Polanski a standing O and an Oscar.
In 2020, Barack Obama did a one-on-one interview with Bronfman’s granddaughter, Hannah Bronfman, a reputed “influencer.”
A month prior, Hannah’s aunt Clare was sentenced to 81 months in prison for her role in Raniere’s sex-trafficking ring. Actress Allison Mack was sentenced to two years in prison for her involvement after accepting a plea deal in 2019.
A child star, Mack may herself have been groomed. As revealed in the explosive five-part 2024 Max series, “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,” Hollywood has long been a hotbed of pedophilia.
The show focuses on Nickelodeon and its disgraced producer Dan Schneider. Not surprisingly, Schneider was a friend of the Obamas.

But Pizzagate is off limits? Hmmm!

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.
