While what is sure to be one of the most contentious presidential races in the history of our great nation draws ever nearer, we’re starting to see an increase in bad omens concerning the U.S. economy. I know, I know. We’ve been seeing these for a long, long time now. Every time you step foot in the grocery store you see the signs, right? Need to fill up your gas tank? Oof. Another bad sign. Well, I’m here to tell you that things are actually getting a bit worse than initially predicted. You know things are getting bad when CNN…

One of the biggest economic threats Americans face today is the possibility of slipping into a recession. Right now, with inflation sky high leading to a massive uptick in the cost of living and thus placing a heavy burden on folks when it comes to purchasing the basic necessities of life. Just go to the grocery store and you’ll see products you’ve bought for years suddenly three times more expensive than they were. And it doesn’t look like relief is going to be coming anytime soon, especially if President Joe Biden gets a second term in the White House. A…
Why does it seem like every single time there’s a major infectious disease of some type it always has its origin in China? What the heck are people doing over there to cause this problem? I mean, we basically know that the issues with COVID were the result of a lab leak from experiments being done on the coronavirus that should have never been done, but what in the world is going on over there now? Well, according to the latest report from NBC News, an investigation launched into five fur farms in the communist country that house animals such…
Well, guys, it’s an election year. You know what that means. Time for the radical left to introduce a new pandemic to force lockdown mandates on everyone so that the infamous mail-in ballots — which makes fudging numbers on vote counts as easy as apple pie — become a hot topic of conversation once again. For months now, the medical establishment, along with all of the usual medical health organizations, have been warning folks that there could be another big time sickness coming to pound us to smithereens like Mike Tyson smashing hooks and uppercuts into Jake Paul’s face. So…
A UK-based asset manager, Ruffer LLP, which has $27.6 billion in assets, is making a rather huge bet, likely its biggest one ever, on cash money as liquidity in the United States continues to shrink faster than Wayne Szalinski’s children, which provides a boost to the possibility of their being a rather violent — think Michael Meyers in “Halloween Kills” kind of violent, only financially speaking — market reversal. According to Yahoo, “Two-thirds of the money it oversees now sits in cash, a record allocation, according to fund manager Matt Smith. The income from that stash is being funneled into…
Tesla CEO and owner of social media platform X, Elon Musk, issued a rather terrifying prediction earlier this week when he stated that he believes the development of artificial intelligence that will bypass the smartest human on earth could potentially happen by next or 2026. This is why we shouldn’t be trying to play God. For decade upon decade, going all the way back to Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein,” stories on stage, screen, and written in prose have warned us about the dangers of attempting to supplant the Creator and make life, not in terms of procreation, but literally creating beings…
Well, President Joe Biden has done it again. He’s further ruined the hopes and dreams of a ton of workers across the country as the national chain of 99 Cent Only stores, which has 371 locations across four states, is now closing its doors for good. The reason why? According to operators it’s due to a ton of theft and massive inflation. Now, hold on a minute. You mean to tell me that there are people out there in our society, right now, who will legitimately steal things from a store where the merchandise is a dollar? Really? It’s a…
Jamie Dimon, the chief of JPMorgan Chase, issued a warning concerning U.S. interest rates, stating that they could end up surging over 8 percent over the course of the coming years as our nation’s debt hits record highs, coupled with a number of ongoing conflicts on the geopolitical conflicts make it more difficult to bring inflation levels down. That’s not exactly the kind of good news we want to hear, but that’s where our economy is at the moment, which is why it’s critical to remove Joe Biden from the presidency and get Trump in office. “Huge fiscal spending, the…
If you’re looking to invest and get, over a lengthy period of time, a super solid return, you can’t go wrong with the stock market. While gold, oil, housing, and other asset classes have managed to make more than a few people some serious cash, they don’t even come close to the kind of annualized average returns that stocks have brought in over the last 100 years. However, when you start to narrow things down and look at a short period of just a few years and take a crack at predicting the directional moves of the Dow Jones Industrial…
“Survivor” is a phrase that really should include as part of its definition the fact that the one who makes it through a do-or-die situation is the one who is most prepared for such an eventuality, which includes training the mindset that you’ll do whatever you need to do in order to push through an emergency situation and help your family do the same. And that means daydreaming about horrific scenarios in order to come up with a potential plan of action should the proverbial crap hit the fan. If you have actual crap hitting the fan, well, that’s a…
Ever since our ancestors popped a squat around the fire and could grunt and fart stories, mankind has been issued warning after warning about the dangers of “playing God” and getting too big for our britches. Arrogance has been the root cause of the vast majority of the problems that have plagued mankind since day one. The very reason Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was because they wanted to be like God — not in a good way — deciding for themselves what is right and wrong. In other…
There’s a brand new threat to the health and mortality of human beings all over the world, and it even has some rather serious side effects for our economy and healthcare system too. This threat is being called the “silent pandemic,” as it is now the third-fastest growing cause of death around the world. We’re talking about kidney disease. That’s probably not at all what you expected, is it? According to an article written and published by Nature, by the time 2040 rolls around, kidney disease is expected to be the fifth-highest cause of death among people. As this piece…
The Congressional Budget Office has issued a major warning alongside its latest projections that show the current path the U.S. federal government is on concerning debt is terrifying for the future of our nation. The government’s debt is set to go up from 97 percent of GDP last year to 116 percent in the next decade, which is a higher number than in Second World War. Actually, the outcome for now looks even worse for the future than it did at that time in history. Thanks, Biden. Here are some details from Yahoo: From tax revenue to defense spending and…
The Central Intelligence Agency has issued a stern warning to the nation of Israel saying that Iran will likely be attacking their country sometime within the next 48 hours, according to a report from The Express. It’s being reported that Israel wiped out two commanders within the Iranian military after carrying out a strike on Tehrain’s consulate located in Damascus, the capital of Syria this week. Things in the Middle East really beginning to pop and not in a good way. Conflicts that continue to escalate like this are almost guaranteed, at some point, to drag us into them. I…
The Niagara Falls area of Canada has declared a state of emergency just ahead of the April 8 solar eclipse. No, it’s not because they are expecting some sort of cosmic disaster to unfold — although you never know, right? — but due to the hundreds of thousands of tourists that are expected to pay a visit to the area to witness the once-in-a-lifetime event. And that, in and of itself, can lead to widespread chaos if anything weird does goes down, so declaring a state of emergency does not seem like a bad idea. Check out more details from…
A former top general in the United States issued a warning on Sunday that radical Islamic terrorist organization, ISIS, is once again gaining strength. And here’s the problem with all of these groups. Unless you begin to dismantle their ideology and start fighting against the wickedness it promotes in the realm of philosophy and belief, they will continue to come back. We have to face the facts that, like it or not, ISIS and other terrorist organizations have waged a holy war against the rest of the world. Simply killing all the bad guys will not suffice because the ideas…
I can’t remember the last time there was this much hype about the happenings in a single month, and given I work in the media industry, that’s saying something. It’s been a long, long time since folks have been buzzing about so many events all happening at close to the same time, and I don’t think it’s just because of the Great American Eclipse taking place on April 8. There have been a whole lot of people speculating that something huge is about to go down this month. It’s an electricity in the air and we’re all just holding our…
As the general election season starts to kick into high gear, there’s a massive new threat emerging in the United States that everyone should be aware of: cyber attacks on the power grid. This is honestly the stuff of nightmares. A successful attack on the power grid could not only have a negative impact on the election itself, but on the spread of information. Chaos will undoubtedly ensue, especially if folks lose power for extended periods of time. Traffic lights go out. And I think we’re all aware of the dimwits that are out on the road driving who suddenly…
The horrific collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland early on Tuesday morning will reportedly lead to widespread disruption to trade, however, Americans experts have revealed that Americans are prepared to avoid another supply chain debacle like that which took place during the coronavirus pandemic. Still, at a time when our economy is already swirling around the bottom of the toilet bowl, this disruption could not possibly happen at a worse time. Watch for prices on specific goods to increase due to lack of supply here real soon. With so many people thinking that the boat crash…
We’re living in a really dangerous time in human history, especially here in the United States. Once, long, long ago, people could leave their doors and windows unlocked most of the night. That seems like a cliche, but it really was that way for a short time. The reason for this level of societal peace and cooperation was shared values and beliefs. The nation was majority Christian at that time and most folks held to the same ideology, with some differences here and there. Progressives have destroyed the common ground we once held and has sowed deep division in our…
