THE BIG PICTURE
There Is Hope for Your Moment of Change – “It’s called your “and then” moment. If you are going through a time where you feel life is too heavy, too hard, or too much, don’t give up. The Bible contains numerous examples of people who experienced times of testing or preparation just before a single moment changed their lives forever. It’s called the “and then” moment.” – Kate Dreston
Collapse of US Agriculture – “The American Southwest has entered a state of terminal hydrological collapse. The mountain snowpack that sustains the region has failed pushing American agriculture toward a potential disaster in 2026. This high-altitude frozen reservoir is currently at its lowest level in recorded history, signaling an immediate crisis for the 40 million people and the vast industrial complex dependent on the Colorado River. This is a structural shift in the region’s ability to support human life and economic activity. This regional water crisis collides with a global energy and fertilizer shock. Following Operation Epic Fury, Iran effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, trapping 20 percent of the world’s oil, LNG, and approximately one-third of the world’s seaborne fertilizer. The loss of natural gas impacts fertilizer production globally. The loss of 50 percent of the world’s seaborne sulfur hurts phosphate fertilizer production.” – Sarah Connor – AND FOR THOSE WHO MAKE FUN OF PREPPERS, THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE REASONS PEOPLE PREP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unproven in the Field: Terrana’s RNA “Plant Vaccines” Deserve Serious Scrutiny – “World Economic Forum contributor Noubar Afeyan, the billionaire who co-founded Moderna, has launched a company that plans to use “the language of nature to give plants new instructions.” Called Terrana Biosciences, the company will manipulate the vast ecosystem of self-replicating RNAs from across the plant world, rewriting them with unique instructions to make any desired trait and solve problems at any point in the plant’s lifecycle. Terrana—launched last July by Flagship Pioneering (the folks behind Moderna)—is all about “native” RNA-based tweaks for crops.” – Tracy Beanz & Michelle Edwards

IF I WAS MOSSAD… – “Today, Laura Loomer as acting director of the US Mossad, has warned that Israel will commit a false flag operation in the US imminently with ten times the destruction and casualties as the Twin Towers… Of course, she inserted, Iran for Israel, but we all know who is the false flag maker of coups, destruction and death for the past 60 years. And yet every single US President is shocked by Islamic terrorism. Shocked, I say! IF I was Mossad – what American city and structure would I bomb to realize the most casualties? In March, Larry Silverstein acquired ownership of the US Bank Tower in LA and bought ‘terrorism risk insurance’. World Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein “fortuitously” took out terrorism insurance just months before the 9/11. He received $4.557Billion from the insurance. He bought the building for $3.2 billion 2 months before the attack. Appreciation is a bitch.” – Helena Glass – NOTHING TO SEE HERE THOUGH!!!

Chaos, War, and Murder Continue in the Face of a Failed U.S. Empire – “We are in the middle of hell in this now heinous authoritarian country called America. To not see this or act against it, is pure pathetic madness. It is as if everything going on here is like living in a giant national Hollywood soap opera; a cesspool to be sure. The difference of course, is that this mess is real, regardless of the actors pretending to be ‘leaders’ of this totalitarian governing system. Can any even imagine all that is going on at once, while ‘Rome’ burns to the ground?” – Gary D. Barnett
The American Rubicon – “If one sought to identify the quintessential “government” agency, it would be difficult to improve upon “the TSA” as your choice. consider: TSA is a relatively recent institution created a scant 45 days after the 9/11 attack and a month before that ghastly exemplar of DC naming inversion “the Patriot Act” came to be. Prior to TSA, airports ran their own security and “security lines” were basically not a thing. “Thus began the misery of TSA and shoe removal and let me count the ounces of your shampoo and long lines with gropers and annoyances at the front most of whom just seem to be milling around to no good purpose in an overstaffed pantomime of security theater. – El Gato Malo
The Problem Isn’t “Kings”, The Problem Is US Presidents – “The problem is US presidents, not kings. The problem is the US empire, not Trump. The United States needs drastic, revolutionary change, not daytime protests designed to be as inoffensive as possible” – Caitlin Johnstone
Patriotic Purge: The Real Cost of War – “Fighting for corruption and profits. War has never made the lives of the common people any better, with the exception of our fight for independence and the War of 1812, in which our shores were attacked. It has padded the pockets of those who were already rich, and paved the way for new fortunes for those willing to sell their souls. WWI introduced deadly globalism to the world. WWII made the world safe for communism and Zionism.” – Donald Jeffries
Mercy, Forgiveness, Peace – “In Trump’s America, a lot of words have gone out of style. Words like compassion, generosity, forgiveness, grace, mercy, and especially peace. “Punch ‘em when they’re down” Hegseth symbolizes the fake-tough-guy attitude of Trump and crew.” – Bill Astore
Iran Can’t Accept Trump’s Absurd ‘Plan’ I- “f the reported details are correct, the so-called plan includes many of the same unrealistic and maximalist demands that the administration has been making for the last year. – Daniel Larison
Strategic Failure: Trump’s Contradictory Iran Strategy Unravels – “US President Donald Trump appears to be continually backtracking and/or contradicting himself on his various announcements regarding Iran.

The European Union Hates Hungary, Loves Ukraine – “The EU discards members, protects non-members. While the E.U. and NATO fight Russian authoritarianism by protecting Ukrainian authoritarianism, both institutions have remained relatively quiet as member states sustain actual attacks.” – J.B. Shurk
Destruction of America – “Our country stands on the brink of…well, something. And something bad. I won’t pretend to know precisely just how bad, but I know it won’t be mild. What I’m talking about are two different parts of the Democrats’ current play in Congress. In particular, the current shutdown of DHS and the SAVE Act. These two things shouldn’t look like they have anything to do with one another, at least on the surface, but you don’t have to dig too deeply to see where the connection is. Both involve Democrats trying to protect illegal aliens—I hate the term, personally, but I refuse to allow the left to pretend illegals are just immigrants and equate them with those who followed the rules to come here—and both need to be dealt with if we want to step away from the brink.’ – Tom Knighton

Reflections from the Heart of the Empire: Delusions, Magic Tricks, and Resistance – “Secretary of War Tats Pete Hegseth announced that the Administration will be seeking $200 billion more from American taxpayers to insure that the ongoing imperial catastrophe in the Middle East has the necessary funding to be the Most Colossal Catastrophe in History because Donald Trump and Israel deserve nothing less. BBC is practically salivating at the prospect of 5000 US Marines invading Kharg Island, Iran. OK, let’s look at Kharg Island.The Marines would have to be supplied by sea. Note the Strait of Hormuz to the right. US Navy ships carrying those supplies, not to mention the Marines themselves, would have to run a gauntlet of Iranian missiles. Or they can try supplying them by air, you know, like the French did at Dien Bien Phu. I’m pretty sure the Iranians have heard of that one.” – Ohio Barbarian – THE BARBARIAN’S WEEKLY RECAP, GOOD AS USUAL!!!

Is Cuba Next? (VIDEO) with Mario Braga – “The Trump Administration is now openly saying it may “take Cuba next”. What does that mean? What would it look like? And why does the US want to do this?” – Adam Taggart | Thoughtful Money®
Where will the winds take Cuba? – Cuba can still be categorized as a socialist system, but it is already far removed from any orthodox, Marxist conception of “communism.” Despite Cuba’s historical resilience, a product of its revolutionary experience, we have already witnessed that, in the long term, embargoes and sanctions can undermine the willpower of leadership and the population. Furthermore, let us remember, the generation in power in Cuba is no longer the revolutionary generation.” – Raphael Machado

American Girl—Yes, the Doll Company—Is Promoting Hijabs – “I’m on my knees thanking the Lord that my babies are grown.

AND OTHER CULTURAL HOLIDAYS AS WELL. I DON’T RECALL HER COMPLAINING ABOUT THOSE OUTFITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Greatest Economic Crash Ever – “The “greatest economy ever,” as the king and all the king’s men (and women) keep calling it, is creating the greatest private-credit crisis ever. A crisis that is increasingly being described as something that could rapidly achieve critical mass like the Great Financial Crisis did keeps blowing up relentlessly. Today, yet another private credit fund that holds investments in many issuers of private credit, jumped on the heap of those that have already been throttling back on how much investors can withdraw from their funds in order to prevent an account-draining rush down the sewers of corporate history. Apollo Global Management became the latest shadow bank to cap redemptions from one its biggest private credit funds” – David Haggith

Why Silver Is Doing What It Shouldn’t – “Really?!? Silver is doing everything wrong. War risk is rising, inflation isn’t dead, and global instability is spreading. Under normal conditions, silver should be ripping higher. Instead, it drops — and that contradiction is the entire story. When markets stop making sense, they start sending signals. Most investors think silver is malfunctioning. It isn’t. This is a deliberate stress test designed to shake out weak conviction and force bad decisions at the worst possible time. The market’s job is to make you quit right before the move.” – Kerry Lutz

David explains the mechanics of this “liquidation phase,” the role of the futures market, and why he believes a massive supply-demand squeeze is still on the horizon.” – Financial Survival Network

Do you want to know why there are so many obese people in our country? They aren’t over-eating. They are purchasing the cheapest available foods, which are highly processed, low in nutritional value, and high in calories.” – Sara Sue

Hardening Without Advertising: Making Your Property Less Appealing Without Looking Like a Fortress – “There’s a quiet mistake many people make when they begin taking security seriously.

Because while you’re making your property harder to break into, you may also be sending a different message:” – denob
