Leftist media is turning on Joe Biden. Fellow Democrats are turning on Joe Biden. The Hunter Biden “hack” over the weekend is making things even worse. Is Joe Biden done? Yes, and we need to understand that the powers-that-be planned it that way.
First, let’s go back to 2020 during the Democrat nominee selection process. Joe Biden was quickly knocked out early on. He had abysmal showings in all but one state, South Carolina, where he won but not by the margin they were expecting. Going into Super Tuesday, Bernie Sanders had all the momentum with Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar showing the best chances of beating him.
Then, magically, two of the “Establishment” frontrunners dropped out to make room for Biden to perform well for Super Tuesday. The rest is history.
At the time, I was wondering what Biden had done to earn the push by the powerbrokers at the DNC. One theory came from Lt. General Thomas McInerney who believed Biden’s connections to Hammer and Scorecard were necessary for Democrats to win in the general election, so he parlayed that into backing from the DNC. It made sense because two weeks before Super Tuesday, Democrat Senators who were hammering the various voting machine companies about their massive vulnerabilities suddenly stopped asking questions, stopped having hearings, and stopped speaking out against companies like Dominion. It was as if they knew something, or to be more accurate, it was as if they were given instructions to back off.
While I still think Lt. General McInerney’s theory has some legs, I’m now leaning toward the theory that Biden was simply the most expendable of the candidates. The powers-that-be in the Liberal World Order knew they needed someone they could control and eventually sacrifice once things got really bad in America. They determined they could do the most damage by having TWO people they could control. With Biden in the Oval Office and Kamala Harris lurking in the shadows, they had the ability to use Biden to take America down economically, which he has done. Then, they could eject him and move someone else they controlled, Harris, into the driver’s seat.
Corporate media is doing their part. They’ve essentially turned on Biden completely. The NY Times is questioning whether Biden is too old. CNN and MSNBC are regularly reporting on his abysmal approval ratings. Even WaPo is writing hit pieces against him. The media defenders of all things Democrat have become critics of the regime for some reason. Of course, we believe we know what that reason is. They’re being told to do so.
Is Joe on his way out? It would seem like that’s the case, especially when we take into account the Hunter Biden “hacks” over the weekend. I posted my thoughts about them on Twitter:
The Hunter “hack” was intentionally allowed by the powers-that-be.
It is Standard Operating Procedure to secure ALL devices and online accounts of POTUS and VP family members. The securing process is extreme for normal people. For Hunter Biden, it would have been a monstrous undertaking that was checked by multiple agencies multiple times.

Dozens if not hundreds of high-end hacker groups, most of them state-sponsored, attempt to compromise anyone associated with a POTUS. There is a zero percent chance that any of the ones capable of doing this would then put it on 4Chan without being told to do so.
Hunter Biden’s incompetence + 4Chan’s penchant for chaos = Suspension of disbelief. Most are not seeing that this was manufactured for an agenda because the players involved make the scenario seem plausible as long as we disregard that it’s impossible that it went down that way.

This whole mess was one triggering factor in a plan to take down Joe Biden. And to those who think this was the “good guys” doing good guy things, it’s not. The demolition of our economy and the reduction of our status in the world will be blamed on an outgoing Biden.
Kamala Harris, who is the least-qualified and most ill-prepared VP in modern history, is not an upgrade from Joe Biden. The globalist elites will control her just like they control Biden and America will continue its downward trend as they usher in The Great Reset.

On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I dove into more details about it. I also continued my interview with Christopher Marston from Mass Tort Financing. We discussed the various ways the economy is looking bad and how investors are seeking alternative asset classes that make better sense for their money. In the third segment I replayed the mini-show I did over the weekend about the suspicious gas line and plant explosions that have been happening lately.
We can laugh at Hunter Biden and cheer on the regime’s downfall all we want, but things are not looking rosy for America’s recovery of status, economic standing, or freedom.
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.
