We have been warned over and over again about what will happen if we stay on the path that we are currently on. So why aren’t the American people demanding a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Ukraine? If the American people truly understood what was at stake, we would be seeing absolutely massive protests in all of our major cities right now. Once a nuclear war starts, there will be no turning back. Our nation will be destroyed, and hundreds of millions of people will die. A lot of you out there have big plans for the future, but there will be no future for America if nuclear missiles start flying.
During a campaign rally held in Minden, Nevada on Saturday, Donald Trump delivered the most ominous warning that he has ever issued.
Trump believes that if a peaceful end to the conflict in Ukraine cannot be found soon, “we will end up in World War III and there will be nothing left of our planet”…
“We must demand the immediate negotiation of a peaceful end to the war in Ukraine, or we will end up in World War III and there will be nothing left of our planet all because stupid people didn’t have a clue, they didn’t have a clue,” Trump said. “They don’t understand, they really don’t understand.”
Trump was in the White House for four years.
So he knows what is at stake. And he can also see that the current group that is running our foreign policy is really stupid. I really wish that more Americans could understand this.
Joe Biden is a hothead in an advanced state of mental decline, and he has surrounded himself with an all-star team of warmongers such as Jake Sullivan, Antony Blinken and Victoria Nuland.
If they keep doing what they are doing, they are going to get us nuked.
Instead of looking for a peaceful way out of this mess, both sides just continue to escalate matters. We just witnessed an absolutely stunning attack on the 12 mile bridge that connects Crimea and Russia. That bridge was a pet project of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and he personally opened it in 2018.
Needless to say, he is extremely angry about what has just happened, and he is calling it a “terror attack”…
A red-faced Vladimir Putin has branded the attack on a bridge in Crimea a ‘terror attack’ and blamed Ukrainian special forces for the explosion which severely damaged the key link to the Russian mainland.
Speaking ahead of a meeting with his Security Council tomorrow, the livid Russian president said the blast at the Kerch bridge was designed to destroy ‘critically important civilian infrastructure’.
He declared that the attack was a terrorist incident, a move that could open the door for further escalation in the war that has raged in Ukraine since Russia’s illegal invasion in February.
When Putin meets with his Security Council, they will inevitably decide to hit back really hard.
One very prominent pro-Putin voice named Vladimir Solovyov is suggesting that Russia should strike back by going after critical Ukrainian infrastructure…
“Ukraine should be plunged into dark times. Bridges, dams, railways, thermal power plants and other infrastructure facilities should be destroyed throughout Ukraine.”
Personally, I think that is a very real possibility.
Up to this point, Putin has tried very hard to “play nice” and has not taken out the Ukrainian power grid. But it would be really easy for the Russians to do that, and it would come just before the severely cold weather in Ukraine begins.
There are others that have suggested that Putin should use tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine, but I don’t think that will happen yet. Because if it does happen, that could easily lead to a full-blown nuclear war.
This is something that even Joe Biden realizes…
“First time since the Cuban missile crisis, we have a direct threat of the use (of a) nuclear weapon if in fact things continue down the path they are going,” Biden warned during remarks at a Democratic fundraiser in New York on Friday.
He added: “I don’t think there’s any such thing as the ability to easily (use) a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon.”
Biden understands that we are getting dangerously close to a nuclear conflict.
So why won’t he pull us back from the brink while there is still time?
The Ukrainians would not have attacked the bridge connecting Crimea with Russia unless we had given them approval to do so.
In fact, it is likely that CIA personnel actually cooked up that operation. It is being reported that there is now “a much larger presence of both CIA and U.S. special operations personnel and resources in Ukraine” than there was at the beginning of the war…
Yet clandestine American operations inside Ukraine are now far more extensive than they were early in the war, when U.S. intelligence officials were fearful that Russia would steamroll over the Ukrainian army. There is a much larger presence of both CIA and U.S. special operations personnel and resources in Ukraine than there were at the time of the Russian invasion in February, several current and former intelligence officials told The Intercept.
Secret U.S. operations inside Ukraine are being conducted under a presidential covert action finding, current and former officials said. The finding indicates that the president has quietly notified certain congressional leaders about the administration’s decision to conduct a broad program of clandestine operations inside the country. One former special forces officer said that Biden amended a preexisting finding, originally approved during the Obama administration, that was designed to counter malign foreign influence activities. A former CIA officer told The Intercept that Biden’s use of the preexisting finding has frustrated some intelligence officials, who believe that U.S. involvement in the Ukraine conflict differs so much from the spirit of the finding that it should merit a new one. A CIA spokesperson declined to comment about whether there is a presidential covert action finding for operations in Ukraine.
From what I am hearing, the U.S. intelligence community is very much involved in running the show over there at this point.
But most Americans don’t even know that we have personnel on the ground in Ukraine.
Most of our fellow citizens just assume that this war is a conflict between the Russians and the Ukrainians.
I wish that was true.
Unfortunately, this proxy war between the United States and Russia has gone to a whole new level.
First, the Nord Stream pipeline system was deliberately sabotaged and now the bridge connecting Crimea and Russia has been bombed.
More escalations are inevitably coming.
Is the red horse of war getting ready to ride?
I really hope that those that hear Donald Trump’s warning will take it to heart.
This is not a game.
If a nuclear war happens, it will be the end of our country.
So let us pray for peace, because the alternative is absolutely unthinkable.

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.
Wow, great prediction. He is wrong, but what a great prediction. Nothing left of our planet? Surprising that he does not believe in Global Warming since he thinks we are such amazingly powerful entities.
If WWIII breaks out, he’s not wrong and the last thing anyone will be thinking about is climate change or pushing a green economy. Nope, the survivors will be looking just to keep surviving… period.
“Nothing left of our planet” is hyperbole. How about “end of the world as we know it?” “Total collapse of civilization?”
Where most people are concerned, there WILL be “nothing left of our planet” if all that’s left are pockets of barbarians eating each other to stay alive. Reality would be very close to what Trump described–and possibly even worse; we have the capacity to destroy all life above cockroaches.
Global warming is a scam. More intelligent people than me have spoken out against this scam, but they are “moderated” by Fake News. I feel so sad for the effects on our youth.
“Global warming” is nothing compared to a global thermal nuclear war, 5 and or 6 degrees at most is not comparable to 5,000 degrees. The Left, are death worshipers and nuclear war is the grand prize, a brass ring they want to grab. They honestly believe they and their group of Godless radicals will survive a nuclear war and will rebuild a utopia beyond our dreams. This is some serious mental illness that is going to take mankind with it. Who’s to blame such lunatics are in power, wondering minds may ask? Simple, a group of shallow and political minded lawyers are responsible, “No Standing”, simple as that. Is it too late? It very likely could be but do not look to Washington DC for the answers or good faith action because they live in a political fantasy land that simply doesn’t reflect the real world. May God have mercy on our souls.
There hasn’t been any global warming since 1997: We have kids who graduate from high school and college who will have never seen any “global warming” during their lifetimes. There is no scientific consensus that global warming is occurring and caused by man. Arctic ice is up 50% since 2012. Climate models are fallible and they have been wrong over and over. If the climate models and the predictions about global warming aren’t even close to being correct, wouldn’t it be more scientific to actually follow the real science.
“Biden understands that we are getting dangerously close to a nuclear conflict.”
Does he or is he probably being run by the warmongers in his administration?
I understand the corrupt nature of Ukraine. Russia is corruption personified. So is Washington. Putin went from a KGB underling to become perhaps the wealthiest person on Earth. How? Corruption! Now, the West is panicking. We are willing to demand that Ukraine give up its own territory for us to feel more secure. Reminds me of the old argument that lawful gun owners give up their rights so that others won’t be afraid. What happens when Russia demands Alaska back and threatens nuclear conflict? The only sure route to peace is surrender.
“We are willing to demand that Ukraine give up its own territory for us.”
Well, the corrupt Z is demanding the U.S. pre-emptively strike Russia (which the Ukrainian government is trying to step back now). Besides, we don’t need to demand anything, just stop sending money and weapons to Ukraine. U.S. and some European countries are simply adding fuel to the fire but we’re supposed to just go along with it.
Now we know how other major wars started. Ignorant people.
Whatever you think, no one can imagine the unintended consequences of a nuclear war. Destroying the planet will do. What horrifies me are the lunatics who believe nuclear war is survivable. As was once said, the living will envy the dead. What is so unbearable about peace? I prefer peace. Pray for Peace. 756 days until the election. If we survive. America First. ULTRAMAGA.
I believe over half of America knows exactly what is at stake. Except they are trying to hold onto their domestic lives, their jobs, their faith, while they are being attacked on all sides by the media and even federal agencies gone wild after a two-year nightmare that was supposed to last two weeks. There will not be massive protests, praying for peace. That’s because nuclear ‘armageddon’ almost sounds refreshing after all this horrifying stuff. It was bad enough having Joe mouth it; I don’t need Trump to warn me, either. WE know. Good lord above, we know.
