Why Donald Trump will be the last U.S. President
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
I've got some great news to share with you.
This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Thank you for joining me.
And I really want to welcome you to this, I think, very comforting discussion that you'll find, well, comforting.
And here's why.
Look, the world is going crazy.
There's a lot of intensity, a lot of craziness coming.
I'll talk about some of that, but at this point, you've seen how the establishment is completely wrong.
You know how the younger people tend to be totally clueless, kind of like the way we all were when we were younger, right?
You know, most of the people who listen to this are at least 40 years old or older, so we've had that life experience.
We've lived through it all.
And so we're more experienced, we're wise to what's going on, and so we have a sense of realism about what to expect from the world.
And frankly, most of us don't expect anything other than lies and deception and incompetence.
People say, well, why can't you just be more positive?
Well, we have to be realistic, and there are negatives and there are positives that can be found, but we have to be realistic about the negatives or what you might call the challenges or the obstacles.
Ask yourself this question, have you ever experienced America or the world, Europe or anywhere, have you ever experienced this world with such intense disagreements, such intense polarization?
Such opposite views on the spectrum of everything from politics to vaccines.
We're living in a time of revolt.
The people all over the world are revolting against the failures of globalism and the failed promises of the establishment.
We saw the Brexit vote in the UK, the Trump victory in the United States.
We're about to see...
Other similar types of victories, perhaps in France, Italy, maybe even Greece.
We're looking at this reactionary...
I don't know.
Reactionary is not the right word.
It's more of an awakening of the people to the truth about what's been happening to them and how they've been lied to all these years.
But in this process, you have really two groups of people.
You have those who prefer to stay asleep and hypnotized, And that tends to be the progressives or the political left.
And then you have those who prefer to be awake, which right now is the more independent thinkers, which happens to be more nationalistic, more anti-establishment, more libertarian, or perhaps conservative.
That end of the spectrum.
And so these two groups do not have very much in common anymore.
There's almost no common ground between them.
And this is why, for example, the political left in the United States is refusing to accept the outcome of this recent election.
They cannot cognitively grasp the idea that Donald Trump won the election, because in their minds they believe he's such an evil monster, you know, such a Racist, bigoted, whatever.
All those words that Hillary threw out there, the deplorables.
They believe that he is that, and so as a result, they cannot accept that the American people voted for him.
In fact, an electoral majority voted for him.
And he won the election as it was structured in an electoral college.
Now, had it been, of course, a popular vote structure, he would have campaigned in Los Angeles and New York.
Which he did not campaign in.
He would have been there and he would have won the popular vote instead of the electoral vote.
So Trump would have won either way because of the uprising.
But because we have an electoral college system, he targeted the electoral strategy to victory, which is what the Constitution lays out as the rules of the game.
So he won the game by playing the game or the system that is defined by law.
Nevertheless, the left cannot accept this, and so they are rejecting it or they're trying to overturn it.
If Hillary Clinton had won the electoral vote, if she had reached 270 and had been declared the president, I guarantee you that millions, tens of millions of people on the right would have rejected her as president as well.
And that's because these two groups cannot see eye to eye on hardly anything anymore.
You know, immigration, economic issues, taxation, healthcare, regulation, all of these big, big issues, international trade, debt, government debt, government spending, the size of government, the role of government, the surveillance state, all of these things.
There is extreme disagreement.
As a result, where we are headed right now, unless the curve of trajectory changes, the way we're heading right now, if you project this trend into the near future, it's going to be a civil war.
It's going to be fighting, literal fighting, uprising, battle, actual battle in the streets between these two groups.
Again, if the trajectory does not change.
So hopefully this trajectory can change and we can come together more as a country.
Now that's not going to even begin to happen until Donald Trump is inaugurated, January 20.
So before then, President Obama and the political left are going to try to, quote, poison pill the nation and cause as much damage and strife and upheaval and chaos and rioting and racial tension as possible.
So I want you to be aware that you should expect various activities that are organized by the left that are intended to cause this exact scenario, the chaos, the disruption, and so on.
These will very likely include bombings, riots, social unrest, looting, arson.
Beatings of white people, as we've already seen some of, targeting innocent people for beatdowns or looting, perhaps murder in the streets, and so on.
We should fully expect to see these kinds of activities all the way up to January 20, and even including January 20, the day on which the radical left intends to overthrow the government with a popular uprising.
Now, that day...
And yes, I have information from a source who infiltrated the leftist organizational meetings that are planning this uprising.
Got that?
So my source was at the meetings and told me what they heard being organized by the radical leftists.
And some of their plans include an attempted assassination on Donald Trump, which will fail, by the way, because they're not very good at that kind of thing.
And Trump is well protected, by the way.
But also an attempted uprising on Inauguration Day.
And the way that they plan to have that unfold, and by the way, they will fail.
I just want you to know in advance, don't worry.
They're not going to take over the country on January 20th.
Don't worry about it.
There's a thousand Marines, roughly a thousand U.S. Marines, active duty, stationed in Washington, D.C. on Inauguration Day.
And I don't care if you have a hundred thousand or even a million Marines Protesters, you put a thousand Marines there, they can hold back a million leftist snowflakes.
Believe me, that is no competition at all.
So, these radical leftists are going to try to take over and occupy, very likely, the U.S. Capitol Building or other kinds of buildings.
Now, if they were to try to take over the White House itself, that would fail.
They would be shot, frankly.
If they were to try to take over the Capitol Building, that might be allowed to happen because the Capitol Building is not, there's nothing really going on there that day.
And it's not even very well defended, apparently, from what I've been told.
And so leftists might be able to march into the Capitol building and occupy it and just sort of squat in the Capitol building and claim, you know, this is our country now, and we're taking it over.
Well, what they forget is that that day, Donald Trump becomes president.
And if he has to, his first order will be to the U.S. Marines...
Or just maybe the Washington, D.C. police.
There's about 50,000 of those men and women in blue.
And Trump could just tell them, clean out the Capitol building.
It's not going to be a difficult thing.
So don't worry, the left isn't going to be able to take over the country in a communist uprising.
Now, if for some reason they manage to take over the Capitol building or the White House or whatever...
And somehow the police aren't able to handle it or the military isn't able to handle it, which is impossible.
Of course they can handle it.
But if somehow that's not effective, then you've got, you know, you've got 100 million firearm owning U.S. patriots who will gladly go to D.C. and, you know, clean, clean the cockroaches out of the as they see it out of the Capitol building to restore law and order clean the cockroaches out of the as they see it out of the Capitol building to restore So have no have no concerns.
You are not going to lose your country on January 20th.
Now, this is just the beginning, though.
Once Trump is the president, this is where the real battle begins.
And it's not a battle on the streets.
It's a financial battle.
This is the real big news, the big point that I wanted to get to.
The globalists...
How much should I assume that everybody knows here?
I'm going to assume you know a lot about the global debt system.
So you know that the entire system, which is based on debt instruments that are derived from other debt instruments, that are derived from yet other debt instruments through many, many layers of debt construction and credit swaps and so on, you know that this system has been on the verge of collapse since, frankly, well, 1997, long-term capital management, LTCM, John Corzine, you know, MF Global, right?
That's when it started.
They bailed those guys out in 1997 without fixing the problems.
And then they reduced regulations on banks and they eliminated Glass-Steagall.
And they put in Frank Dodd, which was written by lobbyists, basically.
And then in 2008, the problem happened again.
Too much debt, too much leveraging.
Nobel Prize winning economists forgot to, oops, calculate risk correctly because they don't understand systemic risk.
They don't understand the complexity of emergent phenomenon from dynamic, responsive market theory.
This is their big failing.
Yeah, they can win a Nobel Prize and they still are freaking clueless about reality because Nobel Prizes are given for theories.
Not reality.
You don't even have to be right.
You just have to have an elegant theory.
They'll give you a prize for it.
Meanwhile, the people who are telling the truth are derided as insane, right?
But that's how the 2008 crash happened, right?
The subprime mortgage crash.
Massive, massive crash.
Everybody was wrong yet again.
Numerous banks went under.
The entire global financial system nearly collapsed at that time, if not for yet another bailout.
Right?
So this other bailout comes along.
And they still don't fix the problems.
They just throw money at it.
This is what the Fed does.
This is what Bernanke and that whole class of elite money laundering elitists, I don't know how to describe them, globalists, this is what they do.
They throw money at the problem and then make it worse, and they don't fix the underlying issues that led to too much risk being taken on, too much leverage, and so on and so forth.
So now, the system should have corrected and crashed in 1997.
It should have corrected and crashed again in 2008.
Now, we're about to enter 2017.
When the crash happens this time, It is very likely to be so systemic, so huge, that no one can bail it out.
We're talking about what's known in financial circles as sovereign default risk.
Sovereign default means the country's ability to create money or cover debt collapses.
A nation, the entire currency Collapses, or more accurately, the ability of the nation to meet its obligations collapses.
So where have you seen this in history?
Everywhere where a country has been based on a fiat currency.
There is no fiat currency, and by fiat I mean a currency that is not tied to redeemability in precious metals or other hard assets.
There is no fiat currency in world history that has not eventually collapsed, except just the ones that are in existence today and have yet to collapse.
In other words, all fiat currencies will collapse.
The only ones that haven't are just the ones that haven't yet, but they will because of mathematics.
So because every fiat currency will collapse, the banks have had to prop up the debt system and prop up the economies by creating new money, which makes the problem bigger and bigger and bigger, so they can bail out the wealthy elites while screwing over the working man, so to speak.
And they've created a situation where the next systemic debt collapse will be so enormous that it is very likely going to wipe out the entire system.
Every bank, every central bank I should say, will go down.
Every Western-connected central bank.
In other words, the Bank of Japan, the EU Bank, United States, all across Western Europe, all across Asia, all across Central and South America.
Everywhere except perhaps, you know, Russia or North Korea or countries that have firewalls of financial isolation from the West.
You know, Iran, for example, or Turkey.
Well, Turkey will be affected, but Iran, not so much.
So, the entire Western civilization of banking We'll likely experience the most horrendous, systemically amplified, and perhaps fatal crash that has ever been experienced in human history.
That's the point that we have now reached.
Now, you may be asking yourself, well, where the heck is the good news in all of this?
I told you, I promise you, the good news is wrapped around some bad news.
The bad news is that this entire global banking system of debt and fake money and this system where an entire class of bankers just make money doing nothing other than basically crunching numbers and siphoning off money from the economy, that whole system is going to come to an end.
So the bad news is it's going to be very chaotic as that system ends.
The good news is that system will end because it is a parasitic type of system where you have this entire class of banksters, you know, hucksters running the banks who are basically stealing money and collecting wealth, siphoning wealth out of the economy in order to pad their own pockets.
And they're billionaires while the working people of America are getting royally screwed day in and day out.
They're stealing money from you every minute of every day, quietly, because they're debasing your money that you've earned.
They're stealing from you without even having to loot your bank account in a criminal way.
They loot it in a legal way.
It's called quantitative easing.
So that system will come to an end.
Now, it doesn't mean they won't create another system similar to it.
That's possible.
But the system that we now know today will come to an end.
Now, the good news in all of this is that as this financial collapse happens, a financial collapse in the modern world is really an unraveling of a very complex system of mathematical fictional constructs.
What is a derivative?
It is a fictional construct.
In fact, almost everything that happens at the high level in these markets and investing in banks and so on is a fictional construct.
It is a model, a theory, perhaps a thought experiment is a better way to say it.
These are thought experiments which are given values that aren't real.
None of it's based in reality.
You know, these derivatives, for example, these credit swaps, all these things, they're not based on real things in most cases.
I mean, sure, you can have options on, you know, pork bellies or corn or wheat or oil or whatever, those are things.
Those have some basis in reality.
But the deeper you get into the marketplace, the more you have derivatives on derivatives and you have fictional constructs parading around as if they were real things.
But they're not real.
So everything that isn't real is very likely to collapse, including fake currency, fiat currency, because it's not real.
The good news is that the things that are real...
We'll obviously survive the crash because think about it if you own a hundred acres of farmland in the middle of Nebraska after the crash Is that farmland still there?
Yes, it is.
In fact, the farmland has no idea what happened on the New York Stock Exchange that day, and it doesn't care.
Farmland has been there millions of years before, and it will still be there millions of years later.
It's not going anywhere, well, except for plate tectonics and the slow movement of North America.
But, I mean, it's not going to disappear in a financial crash, because a financial crash is a crash of things that are fictional.
Whereas your land is real.
It's going to be there.
So is your gold.
Your physical gold.
Your physical silver.
Your physical firearms.
Your ammunition.
Your power tools.
Your John Deere tractor.
Your backyard chickens.
You know, the home.
The roof over your head.
The water supply you have.
Maybe you're collecting rainwater.
Whatever you're doing that's based in reality is going to still be there.
Because, obviously, it's real.
And so what our civilization is going to experience in a catastrophic and yet awakening kind of way is a massive shift from things that are fictional to things that are real.
The world of fiction will consume itself.
It will be destroyed because it cannot sustain the fictions.
And as it collapses, it will give rise to increased awareness and valuation of those things which are real.
What is real?
Well, labor is real.
You know?
Planting a garden, that's labor.
That's real.
Seeds are real.
Food is real.
All of these things are real things, and this is where the value is going to focus.
And it will be perhaps the hardest lesson that our modern civilization has ever learned.
And there will be collapses of the population.
There will be mass starvation.
I'll just say that right up front here.
We're looking at a mass starvation scenario.
Not everybody, obviously, but especially people who are dependent on food stamps, people who live in the inner cities, people who have lived in artificial environments and don't have connection with where food comes from.
They are the most likely to literally starve to death.
And by the way, the food stamps won't work when this happens.
You know, that transaction system barely works on a good day.
It will be one of the very first things to go down.
And so human psychology will kick in then.
You're going to have desperate, you know, 50 million people desperate, no longer getting their food stamp credits and wondering how are they going to get food?
How are they going to feed themselves?
Well...
Think about where that goes in society.
It turns into looting and crime and gangs and all of these things.
Nevertheless, if you are in a position where you own things that are real and you are capable of defending them through this transformation period, then you are going to come out ahead.
You're going to come out as an owner of things that are real.
And you will have a very solid footing.
I've talked about this for several years, how there's going to be a next society after the collapse of the current system that we know.
And I think it's a reasonable guess to say that Donald Trump may very well be the last president of the United States of America as we know it today.
In other words, 50 states.
You know, structured as a republic with all 50 states that we know today.
I don't think that eight years from now it's going to be the same map.
I very much doubt it.
I may be wrong on that one, but I think Trump is the last president over the 50 states.
And I think that the financial collapse is going to be timed and engineered, even accelerated, in order to discredit the Trump administration.
I've spoken about this before, too, but this is a really crucial point to understand.
If you're wondering why I'm so confident that the coming crash is going to happen in the next year or two years, or certainly within the first term of the Trump administration, the answer is because the globalists who run the banking system have been intentionally propping up the debt and putting off the crash,
in other words, kicking the can down the road, so that they could protect the The legacy of Obama so that they could get Hillary Clinton elected, for example.
They wanted the market to do well.
They wanted a sense of optimism for the liberal policies of Obama and Clinton.
And so ever since 2008, they have been desperately pulling out all the stops, lowering interest rates to zero.
Pumping, what, $200-300 billion a month sometimes into the banking system in the form of quantitative easing.
We're talking trillions of dollars have flowed into that system that were created out of thin air.
They have done everything possible to prop the system up.
Because they wanted things to go well.
Now that Trump is about to be inaugurated, that assumption is now flipped upside down.
The globalists hate Trump.
They want to see him fail.
They want to punish the American people who voted Trump into office.
It's the same way the UK globalists want to punish the voters there for voting for Brexit.
Wherever populations rise up and awaken and vote the globalists out of office and challenge the status quo, challenge the establishment, there are going to be punitive actions taken by globalists to make their lives miserable.
Remember, for example, just if you're wondering if that's really true, remember several years ago when the Republicans and the Democrats could not agree on a federal budget, and so the Republicans effectively, well, this is how it was blamed on them, shut down the government.
They would not approve the new budget without getting the cuts they wanted.
And so what did Obama do?
What was one of the very first things he did?
He started releasing violent felony criminals from federal prison systems, saying that the government, being shut down, could no longer afford to house these criminals.
So he used this opportunity as a punitive tactic to put violent criminals on the streets as a way to say, we're going to use the power of the government to unleash mass violence on the people until we get our way, which was, of course, a massive we're going to use the power of the government to unleash mass violence on And they ultimately did get their way.
And that's why Obama took us to nearly $20 trillion in debt, because if the Democrats didn't get their way, then they were going to unleash massive chaos, punitive actions all across America.
They were going to just have streets swarming with rapists and murderers and, of course, illegal aliens running across the border and doing their raping and murdering, too.
That's always been part of the Obama plan.
But Obama and the Democrats have never been afraid to use violence and death to achieve their political goals.
And the globalists think the same way.
You got that?
The globalists think the same way.
The globalists will do this on a global scale.
They will push countries to the brink of wipeout if they have to.
There is no limit to what they will do.
And they do not value the lives of what they consider to be the little people.
They call them the useless eaters.
You know, you and I, in their minds, we are all useless eaters.
We don't matter to them, other than the fact they can extract some tax money from us.
That's about it.
They don't value us.
They don't need us.
Heck, they're about to replace us all in the next 20 years with robots anyway.
They've got a plan to eliminate 90% of us when the robot revolution comes in.
So believe me, they don't care.
If they can create massive financial chaos and punish you and thrust nations into desperate collapse scenarios while they are blaming the anti-establishment people like Trump, that is their dream come true.
That's perfect for them.
That's like the best scenario they can imagine.
And during all of this, they will try to call for impeachment of Trump, and they will have the leftist media, you know, funded by George Soros, blaming everything on Trump.
Look what happened!
You elected a moron, and now the markets crash and everybody's homeless.
Of course, it was their policies, and it was Obama's debt, and it was the bankster fraud that led to all of that, but that's not the way they'll describe it.
They'll say, oh, this is all Trump.
So, you must be ready for this.
I've been talking about the coming financial storm since 2008, and every warning has been legitimate.
And has been grounded, founded in pillars of truth, financial truth since 2008.
The globalists have been artificially propping up the markets to stave off a deep correction slash crash since that year.
And they can't put it off forever.
And if given an opportunity, they will crash the system when it is politically expedient for them to do so.
In other words, when the political gains from crashing the system outweigh the financial losses, they will pull the trigger and they will make it happen.
And it will happen so swiftly.
It'll be virtually overnight.
One day you think everything's normal.
The next day you wake up, the banks are closed.
Your money's gone.
Your checking account's gone, your savings account is gone, your pensions are freaking gone.
That's the world that you're going to wake up in one day.
And when that happens, I hope that you wake up and find yourself in a situation where you have enough real stuff You know, a roof over your head, land, food growing in the garden, you know, some gold and silver, whatever is real.
I hope you have enough real stuff to say, you know what?
I can make it.
I just lost all my bank accounts.
I just lost all stock investment options, bonds, T-bills, everything.
It's gone.
Your pension is gone.
It's all gone.
But you can still make it because you saw this coming ahead of time and you divested enough into real things that you can still feed yourself, you can still Have shelter.
You know, you can still have personal security and safety.
You can protect the things that you own, and you can ride out the collapse of the banking system, the financial sector, as we know it today.
And so, I know that's a long way to get to the point, but that is the good news, is that this is survivable.
In fact, it is survivable with a very, very high percentage of survival if you just do a few basic things.
Make sure you've got all the standard preps.
Food, medicine, water sources, water filters, firearms, ammunition.
Make sure you know how to use firearms.
Make sure you have a night vision device, like a PVS-14.
Right?
PVS-14.
Make sure you have...
that you don't live in a city!
You know, for goodness sake.
Make sure that you are not in the middle of the burning and looting and murder and mayhem when all of this hits the fan.
You need to be outside, well outside the city.
Make sure you have a bug-out plan and a bug-out bag and a bug-out path.
You have a GPS device that will help you bug out.
There's a really good one here.
What is this?
I really like this one.
It's the Garmin Trek...
Oh, Trex 401.
Yeah, the Garmin...
I can't read all of it.
Something Trex 401.
You wear it on your wrist, it uses very little energy, and it's just reading your GPS positions as you're walking along.
It's really great.
You better know how to use a compass.
You better have a topo map of your local area.
Have a bug-out plan.
Know where your water sources are.
Know how to protect your property.
Where's the most likely entryway for people engaged in looting or hoarding.
And, by the way, you better have your guard up.
Because, I need to do a whole segment on this, but the easiest way to describe this is to say you have to abandon preconceived notions of a polite society.
Because when it all hits the fan and these people are desperate and they're hungry and they're coming to you, they're not trying to trade with you or barter from you.
They're trying to kill you and take your stuff, okay?
They're going to knock on your door.
And they're going to have a sob story.
And they're going to say, you know, they're desperate and they need some help.
And if you open your door, they're going to have a sharpshooter from 200 yards away that shoots you and kills you and then they take over your home and take your stuff.
If you don't understand that now, then you probably will not survive what's coming.
You have to...
Change your mindset and stop thinking that you're living in a polite society when that actually happens.
Because you're not.
You're living in a Mad Max type of survival scenario.
And while it is important to help those you can, you also have to make sure that you aren't suckered into these kinds of simple tactics to take your stuff, steal your stuff, whatever.
And by the way, it's, you need to, I don't have time to go into all this, but your plans can't be just to sit in your house and wait for people to come in and then shoot them when they walk in the door.
You know, any, any decent, any half intelligent gang has all kinds of plans for getting you out of your house.
Number one, they just set fire to it, you know, or secondly, they just have like a pepper spray grenade or a CS gas grenade, which you can buy online right now.
They're, they're readily available to consumers.
You know, you just knock out a window and you chuck a CS gas grenade into a home and wait for everybody to come fleeing out, coughing and, and wheezing.
And then you just, they, they would just, they, you know, they would take you out and And then they'd just go into your house and take all your stuff.
So you need to be thinking about what is a realistic way to be safe and to survive the brutality of the aftermath of a collapse.
The brutality of It nullifies the politeness that you and I are normally used to.
Because every day, right now, in an orderly society, you and I are polite people.
We're compassionate people.
We try to help our neighbors, and hopefully we always have that attitude.
We may have Christian values.
We have ethics and morality.
But in a post-collapse environment, you can never assume that the other party is operating with that same set of ethics and morals.
because they probably are not.
They probably are lying to you.
They're setting a trap.
You know, if you're driving down the road in a post-apocalyptic scenario and there's a car pulled over on the side of the road and there's a woman there screaming who looks injured, you need to be thinking, this is probably a trap.
Not to say that you can't help people, because it is important to help people whenever you can.
But, you see, the bad guys will rely on your compassion and polite society types of behaviors and decisions in order to ensnare you in their schemes where they murder you, or rape you, or steal your stuff, or steal your vehicle, or whatever.
So, I know this is a very difficult thing for people to understand, especially since you and I, we are not criminals.
We are not products of the federal prison system.
We don't run in gangs.
This is not the kind of life we live.
So to make that leap into that mentality is going to be very, very difficult, but it is a necessary survival defense mechanism that you're going to have to...
I mean, you're going to have to think seriously about how people are trying to get to you and take your stuff and steal your stuff and harm you because they did not prepare.
So I know I've covered a lot of ground here, and I know this whole talk can get fairly depressing, and you may wonder, how is this good news again?
Well, again, the good news is you can defend yourself if you just plan ahead.
The good news is that you can come out of this unscathed.
You can come out of this ahead of the game.
Because you anticipate what's coming, you understand the brutality that the enemy will be bringing to this, so you are making psychological preparations and physical preparations and even perhaps geographical preparations to be in a position where you yourself can be ethical, you can be grounded in morals, you can help others, and you can also defend and protect yourself and your family.
These goals can be accomplished simultaneously.
You do not have to give up one in order to accomplish the other.
You can have it all.
You can make it through this.
That's the good news.
And it's only because you have the psychological willingness to entertain the possibility of this happening that you are going to be able to survive it.
Whereas most people, 999 out of a thousand people, are not even willing to, quote, go there.
They can't even imagine a world that's any different from the one that they see around them right now.
It's called normalcy bias.
They think tomorrow will be just like today.
It's true with investors, by the way, in the markets.
They think that, you know, like during the dot-com boom, oh, stocks are going to go up forever.
Why?
Well, they did yesterday and the day before and the day before.
So that must be now forever.
See, it's called normalcy bias.
It's a psychological short-circuiting of the human brain, and almost everyone suffers from it.
And you have to make a conscious decision to overcome normalcy bias and come to the realization that, guess what, tomorrow could be wildly different from today.
In fact, human history has been full of totally unexpected, catastrophic, history-changing events.
And they don't come along gradually, they come along suddenly.
Suddenly there's World War II. Suddenly there's the Vietnam War.
I know events led up to it, but in terms of the scope of history, these things appeared rather suddenly on the horizon.
Suddenly a volcano goes off.
Krakatoa.
You know?
These things happen, and most people are not psychologically prepared to even admit the possibility of them happening, and that's why they will die.
That's why they're not prepared.
That's why they will try to steal food from you out of desperation, because they did not have the foresight to prepare themselves.
So, you know, really, preparedness is really an exercise in mental flexibility.
It's not even so much an exercise of gathering stuff.
You know, there's a lot of people that have stuff.
But to even get to the point where you begin to take action to prepare, you have to have mental flexibility.
You have to have the ability to look at the world around you today and And know inside your own mind that tomorrow may not be anything like the world we see today.
I do this, by the way, every time I go to the grocery store.
And yeah, I still go to the grocery store.
I can't grow all my own food.
There are things I need there.
Every time I'm shopping there, I feel like I've won the lottery because I'm loading up on stuff.
I'm like, wow, this is so awesome that this is available.
Because I imagine a world where all those store shelves are empty, where the whole store has been looted out.
It's all gone.
And the parking lot, if you even try to get in there, is full of, you know, people pointing guns at your head and trying to take your car and take your stuff or whatever.
When I go shopping at the grocery store, to me, it is miraculous.
That all this food from all over the place is available so cheaply.
And that's why I buy things.
I stick them in the freezer.
I buy things that are high calorie density.
That would be great survival food.
Like, for example, let me just give you a great example of this.
Bacon.
Now, I don't buy nitrite bacon because, of course, I avoid sodium nitrite.
So I buy bacon that has no nitrites in it.
Different types of companies that sell those, you know, that kind of bacon.
But bacon has very high energy density because of all the grease and fat.
Now, would I just eat raw bacon in a survival scenario?
No.
I've also stored all kinds of beans, you know, and rice and wheat and quinoa.
Bacon can go into anything else and make it a more filling soup, a more filling recipe, you see?
So I'm at the store, I'm buying bacon and chucking it into the freezer while I'm also stocking it up on quinoa.
Or, you know, organic freeze-dried vegetables because I can make a stew and I can put in the bacon.
Or butter is the same thing.
I don't have a milking cow and a butter churn and all that.
I don't make my own butter.
If you think about how inexpensive it is to buy butter at the store, it's a miracle!
I just buy organic butter!
And I just stock up on the butter, knowing that butter can go into everything.
It can go into soup.
It can make a creamy base for a soup.
It can go into bread mixes.
It can go on top of pancakes, whatever.
You know, again, I don't consume massive amounts of butter right now in a normal, orderly society, but in a collapse, I want to have butter and bacon and peanut butter and, you know, organic lard, frankly.
Lard is a very important ingredient for survival, believe it or not.
So, it's a mindset.
It's the ability to move through the world, a world full of zombies who can't see anything other than what's right in front of their eyes, and yet, in our own minds, we are able to correctly imagine This entire construct no longer existing.
We're able to see the faults in the system that can appear without warning and catastrophically, and we're able to anticipate that.
And that actually makes us highly intelligent individuals.
It makes us more curious.
That's why people like you who listen to this I tend to be very creative people.
Scientists or musicians, for example.
A lot of people in the healing arts.
A lot of people who are in cognitively demanding types of jobs.
Or architects, for example.
Or law, for example.
Or even tactically demanding types of jobs.
Or a lot of active duty military officers who follow my work, for example.
And all of you, what you have in common is that you're able to outthink with cognitive flexibility the typical zombie citizen who can only see the world five minutes at a time in front of them, or, you know, a day at a time.
They live paycheck to paycheck.
They vote for whoever the television tells them to vote for.
They never plan ahead.
They just go from one meal to the next.
The refrigerator is mostly empty.
Their pantry is empty.
They eat out a lot.
They eat out almost every meal.
They don't do any planning for the future.
And that is the vast majority of the population.
Those are the people who are not going to do very well in a catastrophic collapse type of scenario.
So, I know I'm a little long here.
I wanted to bring you all of this information.
Oh, let me make an announcement here at the end as I wrap this up.
Next year, 2017, I am launching, at least this is the current plan, five days a week, commercial-free, live talk show.

It's going to be five days a week, a live talk show covering the news in real time.
We'll even be able to take calls from listeners.
So that's in the works.
I intend to cover the breaking news as it's happening and bring you intelligent analysis because I know that 2017 is going to be the most crucial year Thank
goal.
Thank you for listening.
