Everything In Service Of God – “No matter who signs the paycheck, the work we do in every job, and in every profession, is always in service of God.” – Peter Nayland Kust

Old Enough to Buy a Bic? – “Of all the petty indignities that are making life in America increasingly intolerable, having to produce ID to buy a Bic lighter has to be among the top five. And – no – I am not making this up. This just happened to me, at a Dollar Store in Virginia. I went there to get some paper towels and various cleaning products, hoping to get them a little cheaper than they go for at Wal Mart. As I got up to the checkout, I saw the row of Bic lighters and grabbed one because it’s fall and soon it’ll be time to get the wood stove going. Anyhow, when the checkout lady got to the lighter, she asked for my ID/date of birth. I was momentarily staggered speechless but a couple of seconds later I let loose with an are you fucking kidding me? I quickly apologized because I know she’s just a low-wage clerk who is doing what she’s told to do, which is big part of the indignity” – Eric Peters

Epstein, Ring Doorbells & Axon: Israel Controls America’s National Security [Flock Part 3] – “Although this publication was supposed to be about Flock, we have to talk about, of all people, Jeffrey Epstein. It is unbelievable how many times I have written about this guy because his name keeps popping up. That said, let’s get into it… One of Epstein’s many ventures was a geolocation software company called Carbyne, which he founded with a former Israeli prime minister, Ehud Barak. The company’s executive team consisted only of former members of different branches of Israeli intelligence. In case that didn’t sink in, let me repeat it: Jewish blackmailer and child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein founded a company with an ex-Mossad agent and an Israeli prime minister. They control our emergency call system through their company called Carbyne; meanwhile, an accused pedophile artist, Koons, is part of the entity that controls our Amber Alert system.” – Agent131711 – DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE WE GO!!!

Has Big Oil Suppressed Free-Energy? Exploring the Facts Behind a Revolutionary Concept – “Wars are manufactured, stoked, and fought between nations, often overseen by state‑controlled energy giants, and our patriotic young men and women are sent to die, believing they fight for freedom or security. In truth, they fight for pipelines, access, and control. For over a century, the so‑called Seven Sisters, the massive oil companies born from the breakup of Standard Oil, have ruled the world’s energy supply. This is the reality, war has become the engine of the economy, built entirely on fossil fuels; a system that benefits only the few, destroys our natural world, and costs millions of lives. And yet, dear reader, here lies the greatest deception of all: none of this was ever necessary We have possessed the technology to move beyond burning oil, gas, coal and propane since the mid‑1800s.” – Jordan Nuttall

Amidst Defeat, Trump Says Iran War Is Not A War And Is ‘Small Potatoes,’ As US Continues To Strike Iran As Economy Continues To Crash – ““I call it a military conflict because it’s small potatoes for us. It’s not a big thing.” Earlier this week, the Energy Information Agency (EIA) did not post energy data for June due to missing information. This is unprecedented. This is not even current, up-to-date data, these are statistics from several months ago already, the government is no longer disclosing accurate information, concealing the state of just how bad things really are. The WinePress has repeatedly warned about the debilitating effects and energy crisis this “small potatoes” “military operation” would lead to, especially concerning diesel; and the fact that the EIA can’t even provide relevant data from several months ago says all that you need to know…” – The WinePress

Is America preparing a tactical nuke for Iran? – “Trump’s losing the Iran war – and now the nuclear option is being normalized.” – Martin Jay

The Specter of Nuclear War Raises Its Head – “When Trump recently declared the shift in his war against Iran from military to economic sanctions, I thought he had found his exit strategy. But no sooner were the words out of his mouth than Netanyahu had him again bombing Iran at the cost of American lives and military bases. It seems certain that Netanyahu is not going to release Trump from his assigned role as the enforcer of Greater Israel. Iran has to go, and Trump or Israel can only achieve that by using nuclear weapons.” – Paul Craig Roberts

Let NATO’s Free-Riders Fight WWIII – “If the socialists of Canada and Europe wish to fight Russia, they should do so without us.” – J.B. Shurk

Debunking Anti-Gunners: The 2026 National Firearms Survey – “So many inconvenient data points for Second Amendment foes. The survey found that, of the respondents whose ownership of firearms was validated, 54.3% are male and 45.7% are female. Within demographic groups, 33.0% of blacks and 31.3% of Hispanics own guns, compared to 34.6% of whites. It is also interesting to note that, among the respondents who do own guns, the percentage of whites who own the dreaded AR-15s, AR-15 platform rifles, or other so-called “assault weapons” is lower (27.0%) than any other ethnic group:” – Graham Noble  – SO MUCH FOR THE WHITE REDNECK BEING THE PERSON WITH THE AR, LOOKS PRETTY EVEN ACROSS THE BOARD ON WEAPONS OWNERSHIP IN GENERAL AND WHITES EVEN OWN LESS ARs!!!!

ECONOMIC NEWS

Bessent Says the Gold Is All There. I’m Not So – “Sure. He also thinks you can still cash in your old silver certificates.. Over a month ago, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent went on Jesse Watters Primetime. Of course, it’s not the first time Bessent has come off as clueless, which conveniently brings us back to the gold question. Here’s what the auditors actually wrote: In our opinion, the Schedules present fairly, in all material respects, the balances of the United States’ Deep Storage Gold and Silver Reserves in the custody of the Mint as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Translation? They reviewed the schedules of gold reserves. Not the gold itself. And a schedule, in accounting, is exactly what it sounds like. A list.  All fine and well. It just has nothing whatsoever to do with whether there’s any metal in Kentucky. So no, they didn’t inspect, weigh, or test a single bar at Fort Knox. They reviewed a spreadsheet.” – Lau Vegys

Where Are the Jobs? Winners and Losers by Industry – “The job creation machine is running backwards in some industries and forward in others.” – Wolf Richter

Much Ado About Nonsense – Kevin Warsh Takes The Stage – “Given the reasoned warnings from Austrian School economists regarding inducing credit based economic expansion and the current precarious condition of over-leveraged industrial economies, Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh’s furrowed brow commitments, principles, and assurances do not stand up to scrutiny. The above facts instead inform us that Warsh’s speech is just more nonsense from a failed institution of central planners.” – David Jensen

SURVIVAL, PREPAREDNESS AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY

What To DO Before The EMERGENCY?

The FEMA Camps Nobody Wants to Talk About Are Already Part of America’s Emergency Infrastructure—and the Next Crisis Could Change Everything – “The camps may never activate. The legal frameworks may gather dust. The emergency may never come. But the capacity remains, visible on satellite maps, documented in congressional records, maintained by bureaucratic momentum. This is not conspiracy. This is infrastructure. This is the machinery of exception, oiled and waiting, requiring only the desperate moment to begin its work.” – Madge Waggy

I get that in an extended disaster “people are gonna wanna take yer stuff!” and how I deal with that is to build as genuine and deep connections to my neighbors as I possibly can; harden their skills and capabilities as much as they are willing and able to develop themselves; Assure I am contributing to the type of community I want to live in.” -Trooper Channel
