…I present to you some non-official-narrative information on, IMHO, one of the biggest government coverups in history.

I was living in Las Vegas at the time of this event. I was listening to the radio traffic when this event happened. I watched the news for four days straight after this event. And the more information that came out, including official press conferences which often contradicted information previously released to the the point that the sheriff finally stopped answering questions at his press conferences all together, the more the facts weren’t adding up.

• This is the “official” report on the incident from Las Vegas Metro PD. There are so many holes in this report your could drive an entire armored vehicle through it. Speaking of which, why, when the county has a 40+ person SWAT team they could call up, were there only two SWAT team members in attendance when police breached the hotel room door of the shooter (and only two listed in the entire FIT report)? This “tactical team” assembled outside of the hotel room door for almost an hour before breaching the door. You mean to tell me they didn’t dispatch a SWAT team to the shooters location besides a couple who accidentally showed up? Then they said the shooter set up two sniper positions but the police had to breached the locked door between the two positions? On page 89 of the report the police found a note with elevation and windage calculations yet the shooter used a bump stock? The could have hired a better storyteller and continuity editor than whoever wrote this report.
• In the photo of the dead “mass shooter” he apparently used a revolver to shoot himself yet he had spent brass sprinkled around his head?
• This video askes even more questions about the event (none of which were ever answered by law enforcement of course).
• And this interview conflicts with both the photo of the dead shooter as well as other “official details”.
• There was this video of police activity in a nearby hotel during the mass shooting. Apparently the “officer” front right was trained to point his rifle at the public with his finger wrapped around the trigger when doing an escort?
• This sounds like a more likely explanation of what happened.
• Then someone decided to top off this farce with an official conclusion by comedian Ellen DeGeneres.

If we still had a free press it would have been interesting to find out what really happened but the days of Watergate-style investigations are long gone.

In yet another way the globalists want to control and manipulate you via the media, I introduce the EU’s new Digital Service Act…

• Here’s what the DSA is.
• And how it will give the EU broad new censorship powers.
• You thought ‘1984’ was bad…
• This is what it will do to free speech in America.

Just a small warning about the UN/WEF/Great Reset…

• The WEF and UN formed a strategic partnership a few years back.
• Then in an article on CNN today, the UN Secretary-
  General provided this urgent warning. Where he also noted that “to ensure peace between nations in a multipolar order, new and strengthened multilateral institutions are all the more important.” Multilateral institutions (“Miles Kahler defines multilateralism as “international governance” or global governance of the “many,”) with leaders elected by who? I am guessing your average American would have no say in who these multilateral institution leaders would be.
• Of course this push towards global governance stomps all over the constitution.

In no particular order…

1. Amazing how fast things can be deleted from the internet (about an hour for this study). Thank goodness for the Wayback Machine.
2. Why I stopped using reddit a few years ago.
3. Why I’ve been mostly vegan for several years.
4. More WEF stuff.
5. Making the chicken run? We should all have multiple SHTF evacuation plans.

Short answer, yes. Long answer…

• Education levels continue to plummet. My local school district is a hot mess. And internationally, the US continues to drop in the rankings.
• Somehow the US government can find 1000 people to prosecute who showed up at the capital to protest on January 6th, but they can’t find a single person to prosecute who bought the trafficked girls from Ghislaine Maxwell.
• About 90% of the food in US grocery stores will kill you eventually. And since Big Ag has paid off congress, nothing will change with our food policy.
• And Big Pharma has paid off congress as well. So don’t expect the government to actually care about you health.
• The FDA, the government agency that is supposed to regulate Big Pharma, is financially supported by Big Pharma. Hmmm, conflict of interest much?
• The covid debacle? The government knows it was a lab leak from an agency funded by the National Institute of Health, that sickened over 100 million Americans and killed over a million of them, yet as long as government officials and congress made bank from this travesty, I’m pretty sure there will be no criminal prosecutions here either.
• The government is allowing our country to be overrun with illegal immigrants. To what end? {cough} WEF {cough}
• And many jurisdictions have decided to stop prosecuting criminals, allow open drug use, and even hand over parts of their cities to rioters to appease them. Seriously, WTF???
• About 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. And 77% of young Americans are unfit to serve in the military. Suicide rates are at an all time high. As are rates of mental illness.
• Don’t look for the healthcare system to help you. The entire continuum of care is collapsing. 911 services take ages to answer calls now. And EMS services are also crumbling. Emergency departments at hospitals hit critical mass a while back. Then there are the drug shortages, hospital bed shortages, out-patient care providers shortages…don’t even get me started on the psych bed shortages.
• Also, the “supreme law of the land” that is supposed to protect Americans, namely the Constitution, has apparently never even been read by some governors.
• Finally, I am not the only one noticing this, the collapse of America appears to be in full swing. Examples here, here, here, here, and here.

So yes, America is circling the drain and it is sad to watch. Prepare accordingly.

2. Get your furnace tuned up and ready for use.
3. Change the batteries in your smoke detectors.
4. Make sure your fire extinguishers are fully charged.

6. Reverse your ceiling fans for winter use.
7. If you have a two-story home, have safe ways to exit out the window of each bedroom in case of fire.
8. If you live in an area with dangerous weather, be sure to have a NOAA radio on hand.
9. Have your fireplace/wood stove flue cleaned.
10. Install carbon monoxide detectors around your home (make sure the batteries are good in these).

12. Clean your gutters, take down dead or dying trees, weather seal the deck, etc.
13. Change out your summer bedding for winter bedding (flannel sheets and a down comforter are great ways to keep warm in the winter).
14. Put away your summer clothes/shoes and break out your winter clothing/boots/etc.
15. Clean out your medicine cabinets and first aid kits, rotate supplies, toss and replace anything that has expired, add or remove items as needed, etc.
16. Clean out your dryer vent.
17. Install bidets (this will greatly decrease the amount of toilet paper you need to stockpile).
18. Clean out closets, get rid of anything you no longer wear, and buy new items as needed.
19. Stockpile all consumables (soap, shampoo, razors, paper towels, laundry soap, etc).
20. Expand your non-tech entertainment options (books, board games, art supplies, etc).
21. Empty your bug out bag, restock supplies and food as needed, replace anything that has expired, replace summer clothing with winter clothing, etc.
22. Experiment with making your own power with a battery bank and solar panels.
23. Have a back-up heating source (kerosene heater with spare fuel for example).
24. Have a back up cooking source (patio grill or Coleman camp stove for example).
25. Have back-up lighting sources (candles and matches, flashlights, lanterns, rechargeable solar garden lights, etc).
26. Have a battery-operated radio for news and information when the power goes out.
27. Stockpile any special items you use in your home (baby diapers, adult diapers, baby formula, hearing aid batteries, et al).
28. Sign the entire family up for a first aid/CPR/AED and/or CERT class.
29. Take everything out of your freezer and rotate food in order to use up the oldest food first. Note any items you are low on and replace them as soon as possible.
30. Take everything out of your pantry, rotate the food, get rid of expired items, and restock as needed.
31. Prepare a fall/winter garden if possible.
32. Do a final yard clean up then clean and put away all of your yard and garden machines/tools.
33. Do a home energy audit and add insulation/weather stripping/seal windows/etc as needed.
34. Insulate or wrap water pipes, drain and store hoses, insulate exterior water spigots, etc.
35. Make sure your pets and other animals are ready for winter (stockpile feed, insulate the chicken coop, etc).
36. Make sure your vehicles are ready for winter (have chains or snow tires ready to go, revamp your vehicle bug out bag, change the windshield wipers and vehicle air filters, top off fluids and antifreeze, put a shovel and some cat litter in the trunk to add traction if you get stuck, etc).
37. Have the tools to make your vehicle safe on the road during the winter (ice scraper, snow brush, etc).
38. Keep your vehicle’s gas tank topped off at all times; also make sure you have appropriate air in your tires.
39. Get snow and ice removal items ready for use (de icer, snow shovel, snow blower, etc).
40. Winterize/put away your summer “toys” (boat, RV, pool, etc) and get your winter “toys” (snowmobile, skis, ice skates) ready for use.
41. Get your generator tuned up and ready to use during winter power outages (be sure to stockpile enough fuel as well).
42. Clean out your disaster supplies box/closet and make sure everything is not expired, adequate for your current needs, adequately stocked, etc.
43. Clean out the garage. Get rid of unneeded things that have been stored there, make sure chemicals/rags are stored safely, etc.
44. Make any improvements needed deflect water away from your home (make sure the basement sump pump works, add curtain drains if needed, put a dehumidifier in the basement, etc).
45. Cover any access holes to your attic and/or crawlspace to keep creatures from invading your home.
46. Make it a habit to refill any prescription medications as soon as possible so you won’t be at risk of running out if there is a disaster in your area.
47. Have non-electric back ups for your electric appliances (ie: manual can opener, coffee percolator, etc).
48. Check and rotate your stockpiled water supply.
49. Make sure everyone in the family has the means to stay warm during a power outage (warm clothing layers, sleeping bags, a freestanding tent that can be set up in the living room, hats, gloves, etc).
50. Have a back up plan for your kids (a babysitter in case school is closed due to inclement weather, a way to check school closure status of their schools, a way to be notified of early release during adverse weather, a family communication plan, etc).
51. Practice outdoor winter survival skills (camping in the back yard, starting a fire in the rain, etc).
52. Keep up your daily exercise routine but change it up for the season if needed (ie: walking indoors instead of outdoors, trade swimming for cross country skiing, etc).
53. Make your fireplace/woodstove as safe as possible (put up a physical barrier if you have small children in the house, use only adequately seasoned fire wood, use a fire screen, keep anything combustible several feet away, etc).
54. Never (ever ever ever) use gasoline to start the fire in your fireplace or woodstove; use only approved firestarters if necessary.
55. Check the weather report daily during storm season and plan your day accordingly.
56. Have space heaters to warm small spaces but be sure to use them safely.
57. Take winter sports safety seriously. Wear a helmet when skiing, never ice skate on naturally frozen ponds unless it is safe to do so, don’t warm up your snowmobile in an enclosed space like a barn without sufficient ventilation, etc.
58. If you will be hunting during the fall or winter, take a hunter safety class if you haven’t done so before, make yourself visible to other hunters (wear orange!), take care when using treestands, etc.
59. If you will be traveling during the winter, leave your itinerary and route with a trusted person who will know to look for you if you don’t check in on time.
60. For drivers who don’t have experience driving on snow, rain, or ice, practice in a parking lot before hitting the roads (there are plenty of videos on YouTube about winter driving skills).
61. Always keep you home well stocked so you don’t need to run to the store for milk or diapers just as a big storm is set to hit. This way you can safely stay home and know you have all that you need to weather the storm.
62. Keep clean up/disaster abatement supplies on hand. If a tree crashes through your roof, have tarps and ropes on hand to keep rain out of the area. If a window breaks, have plastic sheeting and duct tape on hand to make a quick repair. If flooding happens, have buckets, rubber gloves, and other cleaning supplies on hand for clean up.
63. Review your home insurance policy so you will know what is, and what isn’t, covered when it comes to winter storm damage (wind damage, flood damage, tree damage, etc).
64. If you live in a very cold area, know about ice dams, snow fences, car engine block warmers, etc.
65. Sign up for your community’s emergency alert system (usually found on the city/county department of emergency management website).
66. Keep cash safely stored at home in case you can’t access your bank or ATM.
67. Back up all of your important documents then keep these documents in a safe place, ready to grab and go at a moment’s notice. Ditto computer files, pictures, etc.
68. Keep back-up battery banks charged for emergency use. This includes portable 10k battery banks that can charge your phone a few times to battery jumper boxes, and larger Jackery-style portable battery power stations.
69. Be knowledgeable about winter first aid (how to identify and treat hypothermia, frostbite, burn injuries, etc).
70. Have a list of people you can call for emergency, risky jobs that you probably shouldn’t be doing yourself like removing snow from the roof, sawing up downed trees, etc.
71. When in doubt, stay home. Wind storms, ice storms, snow storms, etc. all mean dangerous driving and dangerous conditions you could get stranded in.
72. Stockpile easy-to-eat food (energy bars, cereal, sandwich supplies) that you can eat during a power outage and which don’t require cooking.
73. Consider using disposable products (paper plates, plastic utensils) if you can’t easily wash dishes.
74. Stock a bunch of “treats” to lift spirits during a bad storm or power outage (ie: cookies, candy, hot chocolate or S’mores supplies, new comic or coloring books, etc).
75. If a storm is coming that could shut down your access to water, fill the bathtub and buckets so you will have water for flushing, cleaning, etc.
76. Be sure to check on friends and neighbors, especially the elderly, during bad storms to make sure everyone is doing OK.
77. Follow local YouTubers for up-to-date information on local storms. Ryan Hall and Reed Timmer offer exceptional coverage of tornadoes/hurricanes/etc.
78. Use a programmable thermostat; your home will be warm when you wake up and it will lower temps when you go to bed.
79. If you must walk outside, wear adequate layered clothing, winter socks and shoes/boots, and non-slip protection like YakTrax. Carrying rechargable hand warmers is another good idea.
80. If you have medically fragile people at your home, plan in advance for their care. Have back up power for ventilators and CPAPs, consider evacuating them to a safer location before a big storm hits, have a plan to acquire supplemental oxygen and medications if the roads are too icy to drive on, etc.
81. Keep a packet of emergency documents for ill or infirm family members. This should include a list of current medications and medical history, DNR order, living will, medical power or attorney, health insurance card, etc.
82. If your area is hit by a major storm, prepare for no one to answer your 911 call, no access to an ambulance or an EMS service, no police response, no garbage pick up, etc. for one or more days.
83. Also be prepared to protect yourself and your family. Emergency responders will be stretched thin during a disaster and help may not arrive for hours or days.
84. Have the tools and supplies on hand to make minor plumbing, construction, and electrical fixes.
85. Be proactive and clear storm drains by your home to prevent water from backing up into your yard and possibly home.
86. Know where and how to turn off the main water valve in your home if a pipe bursts.
87. Be aware of any mental or physical changes in the people in your home/neighbors. Many people have heart attacks from the sudden exertion of shoveling snow, the change of season can have a detrimental effect on people’s mental health, holidays can be challenging psychologically for some people, etc.
88. Plan ahead for winter travel. Prepare to be stranded in an airport due to storm or snow delays, carry winter clothing even if you are going to a tropical location in case you get stuck in a cold area on the way to your destination, and have enough funds to cover travel delays (extra food, hotel costs, etc).
89. Update your video inventory of everything in (and outside of) your home in case you need the information for an insurance claim.
90. Keep all electronics charged up. Unexpected power outages mean it is just good practice to always keep your phone, tablet, laptop, batteries, etc. charged up daily.
91. Use storm windows and storm doors for an extra layer of protection during the winter. Remove window air conditioners and seal the space until spring.
92. If you have a major home system in poor condition (furnace, hot water tank, roof, etc), consider replacing the item before storm season starts.
93. Install useful apps on your cell phone (emergency alerts, weather alerts, traffic alerts, mountain driving updates, etc).
94. Plan season-appropriate activities for the family (fall harvest festivals, holiday events, inside activities at the library or kid’s museum, skiing or sledding, etc).
95. Hit up the Dollar Store for emergency items like matches, first aid supplies, tarps, etc.
96. Bring pets inside during harsh weather even if they usually stay outside.
97. If you work in an office, keep an emergency bag of supplies in your desk in case you get stranded overnight in your office due to bad weather.
98. Learn how to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning (a common killer during the winter). Don’t use outdoor cooking appliances indoors, don’t set your generator exhaust right under a window, always ensure good ventilation when using alternate heating sources, etc.
99. In every situation, consider injury prevention tactics. Falls are the leading cause of death and injury for the elderly so avoiding fall situation (icy stairs, snowy walkways) should always be a top priority. Ditto fire prevention (don’t drop a frozen turkey into a deep fryer!), avoid driving during storms, don’t walk near ice covered power lines, etc.
100. Remember EDAM. Educate your family, drill various scenarios, keep a positive attitude, make due with what you have in any particular situation.

Most people scroll YouTube and social media mindlessly but what if you were to spend that time actually learning something that could help you out when TSHTF? It could be any topic–gardening, how build a tiny house, how to pick a lock, how to make strawberry jam–the list is endless, and so is the number of videos on YouTube for every topic under the sun. Next time you go to scroll, check out something, anything, that can teach you something new and useful. My task this week is to learn how to fly a plane, not literally, but in the (very unlikely) event that I end up in a small plane and the pilot becomes incapacitated, I would at least like to have watched some videos and got the gist of how these contraptions work.

It’s hard not to be labeled a “conspiracy theorist” when things that should have the entirety of our nation questioning situations, situations that in years past would have resulted in a Pulitzer for investigative reporting, are today seen as inconsequential things. Several things this week made me say WTF is happening here…

1. A senator was publicly told how to vote during a senate appropriations session. Of course she voted as she was told to.
2. A YouTuber who discusses privacy topics repeatedly said that if he ended up suicided he didn’t do it. Sadly, this sort of comment is becoming more and more prevalent because the possibility of actually being suicided seems to be becoming more and more prevalent. Exhibit A
3. And how many times do mainstream news shows on every station report the same “news” word-for word? Exhibit A
4. Speaking of the news, I saw a post that Chase Bank canceled Dr Mercola (and his entire team’s) bank accounts. Wanting to confirm this, I looked for mainstream media covering this and…crickets. It’s a pretty big deal that any mainstream media organization should want to definitively prove or definitively disprove.
5. Finally, what’s with all of these young athletes experiencing sudden cardiac arrest? Of course this isn’t a new thing, but either due to more publicity, or straight up more young athletes experiencing this condition, it is hitting the news practically every week. The only doctor who hasn’t been deplatformed for questioning the covid connection seems to be Dr Campbell (you have to listen carefully, however, as he tiptoes around the facts which could get him banned from YouTube).

Social engineering is defined as “a manipulation technique that exploits human error to gain private information, access, or valuables. In cybercrime, these “human hacking” scams tend to lure unsuspecting users into exposing data, spreading malware infections, or giving access to restricted systems. Attacks can happen online, in-person, and via other interactions.” A more thorough definition can be found here. I’m not sure if we have hit peak social engineering yet but we are definitely headed in that direction.

Especially with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), people can be so easily hacked, swayed, and manipulated that it is/will be difficult to tell what is real. I am particularly concerned about what election season will look like. Here’s some ways to become more aware of, and thus more resistant to, social engineering attacks:

1. Read the fine print. This AI generated social influencer says right on her social media platforms that she is AI-generated yet people still believe she is real.
2. Search “sneak in” on YouTube. Some of their social engineering tactics are quite impressive. This guy pretty much takes the cake for social engineering tactics taken to extremes.
3. Here are several ways to avoid social engineering attacks: examples here, here, here, and here.
4. Learn about ways that social media is used to manipulate you (or just avoid social media all together). Part 1 Part 2
5. Realize that AI will allow social engineering attacks to escalate exponentially (examples here and here).
6. Just as in the real world, situational awareness should be key. Don’t give out personal information and don’t react emotionally to a situation (use logic and suspicion about any unusual situation). You could even play with the trolls if you want to, examples here and here.
7. If you run into an unusual situation, try Googling the details. Chances are there will be several (in many cases several hundred) pages of information pointing out that it is a common scam.
