It seems like everyone outside of the Biden-Harris regime is predicting recession is just around the corner. Elon Musk says it will last until 2024. Others predict it will go on longer and that we may never recover if things don’t get very much better soon. To me, the most likely scenarios are either western economies are brought the brink of full-blown economic collapse, or we’ll get pushed all the way over the edge. Depression or near-depression are coming.
The reason I believe this is because the Biden-Harris regime as well as other western governments appear to be intentionally manufacturing a collapse. We must assume they’re doing so on behalf of the Liberal World Order so the globalist elite cabal can realize their dream of The Great Reset. It’s hard to convince people to abandon a system that isn’t broken, so the powers-that-be are trying to break western capitalism and replace it with their Neo-Marxist dreams of utopia for the elites and dystopia for the rest of us.
But my theories are not enough to make people “know” the Uniparty Swamp in DC is intentionally taking us into a depression. The best clue I’d ask everyone to examine is the messaging coming out of the White House. While it’s easy to dismiss their seemingly idiotic claims of good tidings for the economy as election-driven denialism, we must dig deeper. Ahead of a midterm election during a down economy, there’s only one strategy that helps those in power retain power. If Democrats really wanted to win, they’d acknowledge the economic downturn that’s blatant to everyone else, then offer a tangible plan moving forward to fix things.
Pretending like the problem isn’t really there is a surefire way to LOSE elections. This is why I cringe when I hear conservative pundits claim the Democrats’ denial of our fiscal woes is their attempt to salvage their election futures. Democrats KNOW they’re putting out the wrong messaging. The only thing that can make any politician risk losing their power is if they have an agenda driving them. Today, that agenda is The Great Reset.
By trying to keep people in the dark while making themselves look like financial dunces, the Biden-Harris regime and their Uniparty Swamp cronies are just offering fodder so people won’t realize this is all manufactured. They don’t want to risk being exposed as intentionally tanking the economy — not yet, at least — so they’re pretending like they believe everything is fine. This keeps the people and the vast majority of conservative commentators busy insulting the regime’s idiocy so we don’t take time to recognize this is all part of their plan.
The regime and their corporate media proxies are gaslighting us. We can see with our own eyes when we look at our bank accounts that the economy is not “strong as hell,” but that’s exactly what Biden claimed. We look at our investment portfolios and retirement accounts and wonder if things will at least level out if not recover before the wealth we’ve worked so hard to earn is gone.
This is why I continue to be extremely bullish about precious metals despite the fact that I panned them just two years ago. I’ve never had precious metals sponsors for two reasons. The first is because until this regime took power, I did not see gold or silver as necessary investments. That has obviously changed. The second reason is because the vast majority of precious metals companies that sponsor conservative news outlets are quietly donating the money they earn to Democrats. Many are even attached in some way to proxies of the Chinese Communist Party. I’m not willing to support such companies. Thankfully, the last year-and-a-half I’ve been vetting out companies and their executives to identify precious metals companies that share our America First worldview. Out of just over two dozen I looked at, I found three. Just three. They are:
-
Our Gold Guy – Family-owned business for personal consultations
-
Genesis Gold Group – Mid-sized company with a Christian worldview
-
Goldco – Corporate precious metals
The article below by Mary Villareal from Natural News offers further details about some who believe recession is coming and there’s pretty much no way to stop it. I generally avoid doom-and-gloom articles when it comes to the economy as nobody really knows with 100% certainty what’s coming, but this is worth a read because it’s very likely true.
Bloomberg Model Projection Says Recession Is 100% Certain in Next 12 Months
President Joe Biden is trying his best to convince Americans that recession is avoidable – especially with the midterm elections so close.
But according to a model projection from Bloomberg Economics, the U.S. economy is effectively certain to enter a recession in the next 12 months. The probability models maintained by Bloomberg economists Anna Wong and Eliza Winger had earlier shown just a 65 percent chance of a recession over the coming 12 months.
The latest projection doesn’t bode well for Biden and the Democrats ahead of the November elections.
Biden has repeatedly said that the U.S. will avoid a recession and that the downturn would be “very slight.” The president is obviously trying desperately to reassure Americans that the economy is still on solid footing. It’s not.
The tightening financial conditions, which include persistent inflation and expectations of a hawkish Federal Reserve pressing ahead with rate hikes, are raising the risk of an economic contraction.
A separate survey of 42 economists also showed rising probability of a recession – from 50 percent last month to 60 percent this October.

The odds of the U.S. entering a recession even sooner are also up. In the 11-month window, the probability is at 73 percent – up from 30 percent. In the 10-month window, the probability rose to 25 percent from zero.
These forecasts are a sharp contrast to Biden’s positivity. He has focused on strong job growth as he campaigns to help Democrats win House and Senate majorities in the midterms.
Inflation, which has hovered near a four-decade high, has been a drag on the prospects of Democrats in an election where polls indicate that the economy is the voters’ top concern.
Biden still in denial despite dire numbers presented by experts
Despite the dire numbers presented by economic experts, Biden still insists that he does not anticipate the U.S. to enter a recession.
He noted that economists have been predicting a slowdown in the economy for months, but the recession has not yet occurred. “I don’t think there will be a recession. If it is, it will be a very slight recession,” he said in a recent interview with CNN‘s Jake Tapper. “It’s possible. I don’t anticipate it.”
This remark came just hours after the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasted a global economic slowdown and a tightening of monetary and financial conditions in the United States.
“In short, the worst is yet to come and, for many people, 2023 will feel like a recession,” the IMF said. (Related: Americans for Tax Reform president slams White House for attempting to redefine recession.)
The IMF noted that the high inflation, a slowdown in China and the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine are contributing to the challenges in the global economy.
Meanwhile, Biden said he has no intention of meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin at the G20 summit in Indonesia next month, although he will consider a conversation depending on the topic.
Biden said he would speak with Putin if the latter approached him at the conference and said he wanted to talk about releasing professional basketball player Brittney Griner.

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.
Our economy is already in a recession because the definition of recession is two consecutive quarters of negative growth. Just because the MSM fake news and biden, who wouldn’t tell the truth if it sounded better, change the definition of words doesn’t make it true. Conservatives shouldn’t play these games, call it a recession according to the definition that we have used for decades not the new definition the rats use to gaslight us.
