For the last year, we have railed against the two most powerful financial institutions in the world: BlackRock and Vanguard. And by “financial institutions,” we really have to use that label because they’ve gone far beyond simply being the biggest investment management firms with over $10 trillion between them. They now wield extreme levels of direct power over the most crucial industries in the world, including food production and distribution.
I’ll let Ethan Huff from Natural News describe just how vast their reach is in the article below, but first I want to highlight what this really means. First and foremost, we must look at both corporations as more than simply greedy. They have fully embraced and promoted woke ideologies and progressive values, promoting everything from Critical Race Theory and LGBTQIA+ supremacy to spearheading the push for the destructive tenets of “Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance” (ESG).
They are beyond the money now. Their existence and continued success are all about the accumulation of power and being at the top of the food chain when The Great Reset is fully realized. They don’t get the same attention as individuals like Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, George Soros, or Barack Obama, but they are in lockstep with the machinations of the World Economic Forum and are almost certainly the driving economic force behind the New World Order.
And lest I lose anyone by invoking “conspiracy theories” about the globalist elites, it’s important to know that everything posted in this article is easily verifiable. We don’t have to delve into speculation because they proudly announce both their intentions and the public-facing components of their plan. They can do this because they know so few people are actually willing to peer into the abyss or spend time doing the research.
Very few, even in conservative media, have risked tangling with the demonic forces of BlackRock or Vanguard. Those who have, most notably Glenn Beck, have only had time to scratch the surface, as have we. That’s how gigantic this conspiracy really is.
We know this: Food shortages are coming. We’re not talking about the high inflation we’re seeing today or the reduced availability of certain foods. We’re talking about full-blown Venezuela-level food shortages in which Americans will be standing in line for hours to receive limited supplies from a benevolent government. We’re talking about looting, rioting, and mass chaos. We’re talking about martial law, rampant starvation, and the destruction of western society forever.
These are all necessary events for The Great Reset to happen. BlackRock and Vanguard have the means and the motivation to make it all happen.
There are two things that need to be done immediately. First and foremost, we must fight this by exposing it. Other than prayer, that’s really the only recourse we have. It will take an understanding of what’s happening by a massive number of people before we can reach a tipping point that must be addressed. Otherwise, people like Glenn Beck and us will be preaching to the small portions of the public who are mostly in the know about this stuff already.
The second thing that needs to happen is that individuals and families need to prepare. It behooves all of us if there are fewer Americans forced into breadlines and compliance. We need as many Americans as possible to remain unbeholden to government and resistant to the forces who are trying to enslave us. Even the most patriotic family will be forced into government dependency if they aren’t prepared for what may come.
Hope for and work towards the best, but definitely prepare for the worst. That’s the mentality we all need to embrace immediately.
As my regular readers and podcast listeners know, we only take on sponsorships that we truly believe in. I loved MyPillow before we took them on as a sponsor. I interviewed Dr. Vladimir Zelenko before deciding to sell his Z-Stack protocol and Z-DTox products. I bought and tested a Freedom Phone before taking them on as a sponsor, then dropped them as soon as my phone stopped performing properly even though it was a lucrative sponsorship.
The reason I’m mentioning all this before getting to Ethan’s article is that I want everyone to know I truly believe we all need to do two things to prepare. First, we need survival gear and long-term food stored. I recommend My Patriot Supply because I have bought from them since before they sponsored us. Second, we need to look to more stable forms of wealth. To me, that’s physical gold and silver, which is why I recommend other Our Gold Guy for those seeking personal attention or GoldCo for those who are looking for a broader approach.
If these companies were not sponsors, I would recommend them at such a time as this.
We need to fight the giants at BlackRock and Vanguard and we need to prepare our families for the possibility that we will not succeed. That’s the moral of the story, but Ethan has so much more to say about it…
BlackRock and Vanguard Are Taking Over Centralized Food Production Technologies and Will Have Near-Total Control Over the Future Food Supply in America
Many people are still blissfully unaware of what has happened, but the global food supply has been largely taken over by the oligarchs, including financial giants BlackRock and Vanguard.
It turns out that BlackRock and Vanguard have been gradually gobbling up ownership of the means of production, and now intend to lord it over the masses by centralizing all food production technologies in the United States and enslaving everyone under their control.
The top three shareholders of CD Industries Holdings, the world’s largest fertilizer company, include both BlackRock and Vanguard. BlackRock and Vanguard are also the top shareholders in Union Pacific, the railroad giant that moves fertilizer and other agriculture inputs all across the country.
The world’s top 10 food companies are also largely owned by both BlackRock and Vanguard. These include Nestlé, PepsiCo, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Associated British Foods, Mondel?z, Mars, Danone, Unilever, and Coca-Cola.

“What happens when they control all of the seeds, produce, and meat too?” asks Corey’s Digs.
“What happens when produce and meat are all grown inside secured facilities after a gene splice or inside a petri dish, and farmland becomes dormant due to overreaching regulations, lack of supplies, and manufactured inflation?”
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says “it’s time to force people’s behavior to change”
BlackRock and Vanguard’s influence over CF Industries Holdings and T. Rowe Price Associates is having a major and direct impact on farming in the Midwest. It is also important to note that Union Pacific recently began mandating railroad shipping reductions of 20 percent, further impacting American agriculture.
“This will directly impact key agricultural areas such as Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, and California,” Corey’s Digs adds. “This will ultimately affect food supply and pricing. CF Industries is only one of 30 companies dealing with these restrictions.”
Another major transporter of agricultural goods, the Canadian National Railway (CN), is reportedly trying to help the fertilizer market grow. But its largest owner is none other than billionaire eugenicist Bill Gates, whom we reported is buying up as much American farmland as he can get his grubby little demonic hands on.
Back to BlackRock and Vanguard, the finance giants are also top shareholders in AppHarvest, a Kentucky-based agriculture company that boasts one of the biggest greenhouses in the world at 2.76 million square feet on 60 acres. The facility grows only tomatoes, which are sold at Kroger, Meijer, and Walmart.
Then there is Hydrofarm Holdings, based in Pennsylvania. This company also grows crops in a controlled environment with vertical farming technology. BlackRock and Vanguard are top shareholders in this company as well.
BlackRock currently boasts more than $20 trillion in investments, all of which follow the ESG and “socially responsible” guidelines required by its CEO Larry Fink. Fink infamously stated that “it’s time to force people’s behavior to change,” and he is apparently doing that by seizing control of American agriculture.
“Despite the LED lighting, robotics, computer data analysis, and ventilation systems required to power vertical growing facilities of this magnitude, since water is being saved and less of Bill Gates’ landmass is being used, investments are flowing into these alleged sustainable and environmentally friendly facilities, as well as massive greenhouses,” Corey’s Digs further explains.
Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) is capturing medicine and health care by moving swiftly to pass a new “pandemic treaty” that will give the United Nations total control over public health. This one-two punch of seizing both food and medicine spells a grim future of totalitarian fascism in the entire world.

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.
Concerning Vanguard and not Black Rock.
Vanguard is a passively controlled (meaning they do not exercise their shares with companies they invest in) mutual fund made up of everyday Americans, moms and pops, 401k’s, individual investors who for the most part are not the most savvy investors around.
Just before John C. Bogle died he put out a letter warning about social investing in how it was becoming a thing with mutual funds to exercise their clout with publicly traded companies. He was totally against it. Vanguard has had about 5 new CEO’s since Bogle passed. One addressed this issue (might of been Brenner) some time after David Camera Hogg started bad mouthing Vanguard. Not remembering which one, but he claimed at least two of Vanguard’s fund managers exercised their funds in order to get woman on the seats of the board of the company. The CEO at that time did not condone the actions but also made mention he could not control his fund managers.
That said, I’ve seen nothing else about Vanguard moving in this direction. The Mutual Fund Industry is envious of what Vanguard has and would love for people to leave the fund and join theirs. Deep State would also like this as many investors in Vanguard support conservative causes with their loose change (Camera Hogg). For these reason and the Camera Hogg thing I’d be weary of anyone bad mouthing Vanguard without more information other than they are a majority holder of wealth in the country. True but that wealth is held by millions of individual Americans and not fat cats and the question then becomes are they exercising control of their funds with individual companies. Every story on this I’ve seen never goes that far, to include this one. Bring something more and we can talk about Vanguard. Again Vanguard to the best of my knowledge at this time a passively managed Mutual Fund company.
Please see my comment.
Wr have no idea if there are large owners in that fund, and if there are large owners, those portfolio managers will listen. Moreover, vanguard files 13D forms, meaning they intend to exercise control.
BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says “it’s time to force people’s behavior to change” I think he is right… Starting with HIS behavior, and all the cronies he is working with.
That is the corporate America we the people, should be in their faces every day they exist, defund them, kill the entities (woke companies/corporations) for what they are. It’s either them, or us free people moving ahead with our lives. A simple choice to make, no?
Many big tech companies, pharmaceutical, energy, media, and food corporations are partly owned (usually the largest shareholders) by Blackrock and Vanguard. Vanguard is the largest shareholder of Blackrock. We cannot see who owns Vanguard. Yes, it is a mutual fund company, and many average people have funds with Vanguard for retirement purposes, but the hidden elite can use those funds as a force multipliers to push an agenda.
Anyone or anything who owns 5% or more of a corporation must file an SEC for 13D, D, or F form to disclose ownership. The 13D form is for a party that wants to exercise control, a 13G form is a passive investor – an investor who thinks the securities are good for returns, and 13F is for institutional investment managers.
However, how we do not whether know there is a big or several big investors of Vanguard, such as Soros or CCP, calling the shots with Vanguard. Some will say the portfolio manager runs the show, but is party owns 10%, managers will listen. Although Soros has his own investment firm, investing in Vanguard would be a great way to avoid 13D filings.
There needs to be a law to 1) require 13D, 13G, 13F filings even for these mutual fund companies; and 2) break up these investment funds – limit their ownership.
The shareholders of Vanguard Funds own Vanguard. That is the way the company is structured. Do some research instead of trying to stir up conspiracy theories. Vanguard is often criticized for not represent their shareholder’s interests when it comes to proxy votes, and just going along with whatever the managements of the companies in their portfolios want to do. Now Blackrock is an entirely different story and has a different structure. If you don’t like Vanguard and Blackrock take your money out of their funds and buy your own individual stocks.
How about a simple “no Jews” law?
Here’s what NOQ…bastion of truth…WON’T SAY…
Blackrock and Vanguard are controlled by JEWS.
JEWS control the food in America…
And it’s JEWS that will starve the WHITES, being our racial enemy from the time of the garden of Eden.
John 8:44…YOU (JEWS) ARE OF YOUR FATHER THE DEVIL.
Aww, you’ll vote it down, but you won’t say why. Are you terrified that I might say things that might reveal “Jew truths”?
And what do Nestlé, PepsiCo, General Mills, Kellogg’s, Associated British Foods, Mondel, Mars, Danone, Unilever, and Coca-Cola actually produce? Largely unhealthy JUNK FOODS!
“First and foremost, we must fight this by exposing it. Other than prayer, that’s really the only recourse we have.”
The only recourse? WRONG! How about buying locally-produced foods & staying out of Walmart, Meijer, et al altogether? I agree that people need to do a better job educating themselves as to where their foods come from, but most of us know that hot-house-grown veggies (especially tomatoes) totally suck, virtually tasteless. I buy virtually all of my food from local mom & pop markets or a small family-owned local grocery chain, ditto for restaurants.
One other thing we need to understand is that farming itself is a BUSINESS, not a vocation, not a hobby; to make money in this business, you HAVE to go large, everything must be done on an industrial scale. For Vanguard, or anyone else, seeking to invest in food production is no different than buying up coal producers, off-shore drilling companies, or pipeline operators — it’s all just investment. It only makes good sense to buy up farmland just as it would to buy up commercial real estate properties, oil / nat. gas properties, etc.
OBTW: Gold is not going to save you, PM trading is a heavily-manipulated market as are all the crypto currencies.
What you fail to mention is the influence of the serpent seed in all these “corporations”. And the fact that a “corporation” is itself a black magic entity, grounded in Talmudic Jewry.
I wonder if any of the food production plants that have burned down lately are owned by BlackRock or Vanguard?
