I would like to say a few more words about the midterms and the fight ahead. I really do understand the despair eating away at American patriots who are heartbroken to see Islamism, communism, and general lawlessness take over the country.
As I’m sure most of you did, I suffered after the 2020 election. Perhaps the issue that bothered me most six years ago was how the public messaging “narrative” painted that election as a rejection of President Trump’s “Make America Great Again” policies, including his successful border enforcement and dedication to the resurrection of manufacturing in the United States.
Trump won eleven million more votes than he had received in his 2016 victory. No president had ever increased his support by a 20% margin and failed to win re-election; in fact, you have to go all the way back to the nineteenth century to find any president who gained votes but lost re-election. That president, Grover Cleveland, ended up winning again four years later, just as President Trump has done this century.
There were claims of election fraud when President Cleveland was first denied a second term, just as there were claims of election fraud in 2020. Nevertheless, both Cleveland and Trump were publicly ridiculed as “unpopular” and “rejected by the voters,” despite both having gained support over the course of their presidencies.
I have despised this propaganda war against Trump in 2020 and beyond because the “narrative” effort has been part of a grand scheme to rewrite history. The false story continues to be told, “See, Americans really want open borders and multinational corporations to offshore their jobs to Chinese slaves,” and the propaganda press tell this story ad nauseam. The true history reveals just the opposite — that Americans overwhelmingly believe in national sovereignty and their unique cultural heritage.
Now a similar propaganda war and rewriting of history is going on. Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans are claiming that voters soundly rejected the president and his “America First” policies. However, compared to the 2022 midterms (when Republicans came out in force to denounce the installation of puppet “President” Biden), Republicans actually increased their support by roughly two million voters.
The Democrats’ “blue tsunami” smashed us because they somehow turned out twenty million more voters than in the 2022 midterms and, in many states, exceeded the vote totals that Kamala Harris received only two years ago. Not only did strange soy-boi James Talarico win more votes in Texas than the last three presidential nominees but also Texas swung more than twenty-six points from Republicans to Democrats in just two years. President Trump carried Texas by fourteen points; soy-boi won by twelve.
Were the 2026 midterm elections stolen just like the 2020 presidential election? Maybe. A growing number of analyses all point to that conclusion. At the very least, we know that Democrat-controlled states have been allowing illegal aliens and other ineligible voters to cast ballots for decades. Combined with the unfair advantage that Democrats enjoy by being able to add congressional seats based upon tens of millions of foreigners unlawfully residing in the United States, there is no doubt that American elections have been illegitimate for quite some time.
The composition of congressional representation has been permanently and corruptly rigged in favor of Democrats and against Republicans.
Will anybody step in to remedy this injustice? Almost certainly not.
Six years ago, the Intelligence Community worked with Democrats and Establishment Republicans to give us the January 6 “Reichstag fire” fake “insurrection” — an event that put thousands of Trump voters in jail and nearly condemned the president to life imprisonment.
We know that Democrat Senator Elissa Slotkin and others have been preparing a “color revolution” against the Trump administration all this year.
We know that President Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, James Comey, and many other prominent members of the Intelligence Community conspired to frame President Trump as a Russian spy after his 2016 victory in an effort to force his removal from office — perhaps the greatest political scandal of our time, yet largely covered up because the propaganda press aided and abetted what amounted to an attempted coup d’état.
The 2016 coup plotters were never punished. The 2020 election-riggers and “Reichstag fire” instigators were never punished. Why would this year’s election thieves get what they deserve when nobody else has? Democrats refuse to punish crimes of any kind unless the defendant is a Republican. Two-tiered “justice” is the norm across America.
Does this make me mad? Of course it does. Do I struggle with fatigue and creeping despair? Of course I do. Will any of these injustices, setbacks, or outright defeats convince me to give up? Absolutely not.
I do not say this to you because I believe it is my job to lift your spirits. In fact, this is not a paying job for me. I have never received a single penny of income for any of my essays here or elsewhere.
Sometimes, the pro-Ukraine War crowd accuse me of being on Russia’s payroll (an aspersion that is false and defamatory) simply because I do not believe that we should be allowing the United Kingdom, the European Union, or Establishment Uniparty politicians in D.C. to drag America into WWIII with nuclear-armed Russia over territories whose people overwhelmingly identify as Russian!
Whether it regards war in Europe or election integrity in the United States, I write because I feel morally compelled to make these arguments and express them to as many people as possible in the hope that they might change or open a few minds. For those who might read what I write and agree, it is my hope that they feel encouraged by the truth that they are not alone.
Because, make no mistake — we are in an information war, and in all such wars, the enemy seeks first and foremost to intimidate, demoralize, and defeat you. The propaganda press and their globalist masters wish to sap you of your strength by weakening your convictions. They attack your mind, so that you give up and refuse to stand. These people and institutions are parasites; you are their intended victims.
I simply ask this: Is there anything you would not do to defend the people you love? The answer is, “No,” correct? It doesn’t matter whether a home intruder ties you up by your ankles and leaves you dangling over a fire pit. If you see your loved ones in danger, you will do whatever you must to free yourself and save them.
I think that is how many of us feel about our country. We love America. It doesn’t matter that our enemies have tied us up and left us to die. We will never stop fighting to save our nation. The midterms were huge. Were they decisive? I say, “Hell, no!”
They were one battle, and as with all battles, the good guys sometimes lose. The war, on the other hand, is still up for grabs. In fact, it’s just getting started. This conflict was never going to come to fruition until the communists and Islamists clearly identified their intentions to destroy the United States.
Now that they have done so, the real contest begins. It’s pretty difficult to fight a war for the hearts and minds of Americans when most Americans don’t even know a war is raging! The Declaration of Independence did not come until six years after the Boston Massacre! You cannot prosecute a war for freedom until a near-majority understand that their rights and liberties are under attack!
I say, “Bring it!” Whatever the Marxist-globalists, Islamists, and outright communists have planned, they have never gone to war with angry, committed Americans. They think that they have us on the run. Maybe some of you do, too. I am telling you, we are just getting started.
Bypass Big Tech Censors
Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.
