There are lots of theories as to why the FBI raided Donald Trump’s home in Mar-A-Lago, and several of them could be true at the same time.
During a recent episode of BrightonTV’s America Unhinged where I guest hosted for Dr John Diamond, I broke down the five most plausible motivations for this raid.
1. Intimidate Donald Trump and his base
There’s a pattern of the corrupt Department of Justice and FBI appearing to attempt to setup Donald Trump and the America First Movement to look like violent extremists and enemies of America. We saw that with the public portrayal of the MAGA rallies, January 6th and now the FBI raid on President Donald Trump’s home at Mar-A-Lago.
One of the tactics often used by the Deep State is to make examples of people as a warning to not follow in their footsteps. It’s possible that this was part of their motivation when it comes to the FBI raid… they see Donald Trump as Public Enemy #1, and they want all of his followers to know that if we continue following President Trump, that they can do this to us, as well.
2. Fish for information that can be used to prosecute President Trump
Given the fact that the Mueller Investigation wasted millions of taxpayer dollars trying to find a tie -any tie- to Russia, then the ridiculous impeachment trial attempting to claim Trump had an illegal phone conversation with the Ukrainian President, followed by the January 6th Commission’s show trial attempting to claim Trump incited a violent insurrection… it’s clear that there’s a pattern of the Deep State throwing out a wild conspiracy theory as fact, and then attempting to find any evidence that they can to support their ridiculous claim. While they’ve yet to find any corrupt dealings with President Trump, they are doing everything they can to find anything they can twist into supporting their claims.
3. Disqualify Trump from running for President
According to US Code Title 18, Section 2071: anyone who “willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, or destroys, or attempts to do so, or with intent to do so takes and carries away any record” faces a fine and up to three years in prison. That person would also “forget his office and be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.

Remember, the 2020 Election was stolen in order to establish Joe Biden as the Alleged President of the United States. Trump won in a landslide. The Democrats could be terrified that Trump is going to win in such large numbers that they see their only chance at being able to win without getting caught cheating is to disqualify him from running on a technicality.
4. Force Ron DeSantis out of the 2024 Presidential race
One of the other interesting angles that I’ve heard is that the Democrats are actually more scared of Ron DeSantis running for President than Donald Trump, and here’s why:
While Donald Trump’s America First base is rabidly supporting him, many middle of the road Republicans, Independent’s and small percentage of Democrats that are sick of Biden just can’t bring themselves to vote for Donald Trump. They just want to move on from the extreme polarization, and while they may agree with Trump’s policies, they don’t want another four years of chaos that occurred with the Dems constantly bashing Trump.
With Ron DeSantis, they see someone who is an America First policy guy, without being as extremely polarizing on a personality level as Trump. But how would the FBI raid force DeSantis out of the race?
The hope would be that they could coerce Trump into announcing he is running for President, which would make it virtually impossible for DeSantis to enter the race without being seen as anti-Trump and pissing off the America First base. If DeSantis gets in the race before Trump, then he wouldn’t be seen as being a Trump challenger. But if he gets in the race first, before Trump, he’ll have the opportunity to gain a following and make his case before Trump jumps in the race.
All that to say, if DeSantis can’t announce he’s running for president until after he wins re-election as governor in Florida come November. While Trump has been toying with announcing after the Mid-Terms, since the FBI raid, there’s been lots of talk he’d announce sooner than later, which would make DeSantis entering the race virtually impossible.
5. Escalate tensions in the hopes of inciting a repeat of January 6th or even a Civil War
The most extreme scenario, yet also quite plausible, is that the Deep State is trying to divide our nation even more and incite utter chaos. The America First crowd was setup by the FBI on January 6th, which falsely painted us all as violent extremists. The FBI raid has caused tensions to rise, since our own government is being weaponized against us. The goal of the Deep State could be to inflame the situation to get some people to stupidly resort to violence, creating either a repeat of January 6th or even an outbreak of civil war.
Conclusion
All of these scenarios are just speculation on my part, but each of them seem plausible in their own way. I took a deeper dive into each of these scenarios, as well as what do we do about it during this episode of America Unhinged on BrighteonTV that I guest-hosted for Dr John Diamond. I encourage you to watch it in its entirety.
I’ve published a couple of books on the Deep State’s strategy of destroying America. The book Social Injustice takes a look at the ideology of the Social Justice movement, while Church & State dives into the strategy of infiltration.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
