I dont have time to read all the comments and your replies to them, to busy posting your blog everywhere along w others on Soc Media for fun.:) So i just want to thank you for your honest, straightforward Articles. You are truly one of a kind Mr. JD Rucker. Have a great day everyone, be safe
That's one that I will ask back at the audience today. I've found a couple, one that's a Facebook group and one that's a website, but so far I haven't been impressed enough to recommend them. There MUST be some out there and I think it would be a good idea for me and others to investigate. We definitely need them. I'll have this question asked on the show so I can turn it back to the audience. Otherwise, I'll start looking harder next week.
This is one of the reasons it's SO important that we do what we can to build a local infrastructure. I'm a hypocrite for saying it because we just don't have a lot of real life friends or family close to where I live but we're growing it. For the first time in many years, I'm actually meaningfully talking to neighbors, shop owners, and people I'd normally never engage with beyond, "Hi, how are you?"
It didn't used to be like that. I had lots of friends and family in Oklahoma. But I found it harder to find like-minded people in California so at some point I just stopped trying. Now, I'm doing whatever I can to switch back to "Friendly JD."
Those of us who generally only interact online are going to be isolated if we don't do something about it now.
I agree. I live in a somewhat isolated & very red pocket of deep blue NM - cowboys, farmers, ranchers, oilfield workers. That’s a better crowd to be in with for sure than the liberal loons in Santa Fe & Albuquerque. I just worry so much about being completely cut off - phones, computers, even our vehicles, also reliant on the grid, even if gas powered (I think?)
If I were the regime, this action would be in the playbook somewhere in the middle...when we needed to sew chaos and get people to be more dependent on the gov.
You can't go to work, so there will be a UBI, implemented and deposited bi weekly in your digital wallet...that will be all set up, when we get things up and running again...just another day or two folks.
They understand that we have painted ourselves into social corners, that they can easily manipulate. The majority of the masses, are just to stupid...yes I used the S word...in their failure to to realize that all this social everything (media, email, cell phones, etc) are unintentional, but beneficial means of control, for the regimes and orchestrators.
Completely agree, Dots, ESP the stupidity of so many. I predict that re CBDC, many will think what great convenience, many may be irritated but they’ll go along. None of them will appreciate the danger it & all the rest will pose. And what becomes of those of us who try to defy? Likely shut out of everything.
I especially like the people who say they will refuse to use it, as if there will be an alternative choice.
However, if they come up with a way to pay their mortgages, rents, buy gas and heat their homes by trading chickens, ammo, food, or other items they have, I'll eat my words and start bartering.
No one ever wants to think like a burglar, killer, rapist or tyrant, in order to see what is coming, right around the corner. That is the mistake we've collectively made for centuries and wound up here...time and time again, throughout history.
One of the very best ways is right here!!! This substack!!! And many others!!!
Click on the name of any of the people who reply and whole new world of information to share and discuss will open up. I have found so many wonderful people and ideas by doing just that.
How will we get out of the ENTIRETY of this cluster of the past 3 years - masks, lockdowns, vaxx mandates, CBDC, digital passports, threats already coming out to expect more of the same & WORSE & how do we obtain any justice when the most culpable seem to have all the power? So much despair, sometimes.
That's going to take a long answer. I'll talk about it on the show but I'll also return here this evening to answer it fully. Big question needs a thoughtful answer.
NOTHING that we're hearing coming out of East Palestine should be considered true until it's verified by trustworthy sources. Unfortunately, I've had a hard time finding sources on the ground that I trust.
Is this the first time? No idea. But nothing about what's going on in Ohio and Pennsylvania right now makes any sense.
Thanks JD! I do have a curious question. Why has there been NO mention of the second confirmed balloon that took a more southern route across South America? Where did it end up? Were those countries not concerned? I just find it peculiar that after it’s existence was confirmed there was not any follow up... “ look here, not there” ??? Like most things these days, that makes no sense. Thank you!
The lack of news was so sudden and complete, I almost forgot about it myself. I mentioned it on the last show or the show before that, but I haven't heard a thing about it from conservative or alternative media since the day it was confirmed over Costa Rico.
Thank you.. I never even heard that much. It begs the question... was it innocuous? And odd, that the US didn’t address it and the media?? I obviously don’t trust any of “ them.”
JD...(1)What are you doing to prepare besides buying Gold and Silver and buying food and such? (2)Where or how to find your tribe pr community of like minded?
First and foremost, we're trying to change our living situation. We're currently stuck in Southern California for medical reasons, but it's getting to the point that we must get out of this communist hellhole.
That's arguably the most important advice I can give anyone, more important that gold or food. Those of us who are in the wrong place when things start getting really bad will not be able to do much with gold or food when the crackdowns start. So being in a freer state away from major metros is something I believe everyone should strive to do. It's just not possible for many and I get that. I'm living it. But we're trying to find a way.
As for finding like-minded people, that's been asked a couple of times now and I don't have a great answer. I've found a website and a Facebook group for those purposes but neither have been impressive yet. I'll be asking it on the show today in earnest.
At tremendous personal expense after residing in Southern California for 30 years, I moved out last summer. I dragged along my teenage son who still hates me for it. Whatever. I had to take a sudden early retirement because the DOD was starting to punish me for refusing to take the slab jabs.
I agree that once the full on SHTF, the demoniacs will come down fast and full bore on Christian freedom lovers. The politicians temporarily shelved some of the more heinous bills, but they can swiftly return for passage. Sadly, CA is lost.
Thank you JD. I agree. I'm im NW CT. Very Red part, small town. Cannot move due to my husbands health. Finances too. I don't see how a freer state will remain free if it all really goes down as ' THEY ' want. I guess we'll all be in a real life living hell.
Sorry I missed this episode of Ask Me Anything Fridays. It wasn’t bad, so decent questions and answers. See you next Friday and I’ll try not to be busy.
Ha, I love the idea! I had a well versed chemistry professor that would do this on Fridays- it was a blast- learned way more on those days. I now have my daughters do the same thing- they think up anything they would like to know and ask on Fridays. :)
How soon before open Civil War between freedom states and Federal states? My frame is Covid deaths and illness from non-vaccines cascading greatly over two years.
I want to know how we can impeach this whole administration. I know...impossible, but it’s always in my mind. The corruption is so deep. DOJ is brazen with their unjust actions.
It is my premise, that we (this country, but global societies in general) are sliding down the slippery slope...we're no longer at the top approaching it.
We only get this back to a semblance of "normal" through ideological attrition on their side and a build up on ours...in the K-12 populous.
If the staate school indoctrination is even 50% effective, we are turning out 12.5 million new woke-sters, per year (2019 U.S. graduate stats)...that's just in the U.S. The home schooled and pockets of kids getting red pill upbringing, is miniscule in comparison.
Additionally, these indoctrinated K-12 kids, are day 1 soft activists, spreading the message at home. They do not need to be 12th graders to shift the narrative or do societal damage.
The numbers of the woke are increasing, although birth rates have dropped and we now have younger people dropping like flies, so things may be normalizing.
I think it will be 30-50 years, before you have a society that just believe there are two sexes. Yes there may be outliers and those with mental issues, but birth certificates will say boy or girl. That will be the first sign, that the pendulum is nearing the center again.
What time frame would you put on this, return to the center?
Unfortunately it could take a complete societal collapse before the most stubbornly indoctrinated give up on the worldview that's been programmed into them. That would mean that rather than a shift to the center we're looking at the end of America. I'm not saying that's definitely going to happen, but unless there's a true unifying force or event, it seems like we're going to be stuck on one extreme or the other.
I think America will be the eternal cancer patient...not bad enough to die all together (think taken over by anther country...new Hong Kong) but sick enough to never improve.
Thanks for the response and format. It's a great idea.
Love the question. Unfortunately it's just not possible to name names without risking a lawsuit that I cannot afford. To say any company in particular is "not America First" is an invitation to be on the receiving end of a defamation suit. I know because I DID publish the list of the first 6 companies I vetted and I received a very nasty email within nine hours. Apparently these companies monitor mentions of their names very closely. I even had someone call me that I didn't know asking if I'd at least tell them who the "bad" companies were. This happened just over a week after I had taken down the list of companies. It was an odd conversation and by the end I concluded I was being baited to commit slander.
I can say Disney is, for example, an anti-American company because I do not have sponsors who are competitors. I could say that I do not like Tempur-Pedic because I think their pillows are too hard even though I have MyPillow as a sponsor, but I could not say Tempur-Pedic's executives are sympathetic to the Chinese Communist Party as that would be defaming.
So I apologize but that's one question that I would LOVE to answer but cannot. Not to tease a forbidden discussion further but I have stories about my vetting adventures that would entertain and possibly even inform, but I can't do it with names. For example, I had one company I had called to verify their depository was a CCP proxy. They refused to tell me which depository they used and claimed they don't even tell buyers until after the purchase. I asked, "So we have to buy the gold first before we're allowed to know where it will be storied?" They replied, "Yes, that's standard operating procedure in the industry!"
Needless to say, out of nearly three dozen companies that I looked into they were the only ones who wouldn't tell me up front about the depository.
Dear JD , thanks for all you do for your readers and our cause , God Bless you and your readers !
Thank you!

How do we find like minded people (for the future) where we live. Do you know of any websites for that purpose?
That's one that I will ask back at the audience today. I've found a couple, one that's a Facebook group and one that's a website, but so far I haven't been impressed enough to recommend them. There MUST be some out there and I think it would be a good idea for me and others to investigate. We definitely need them. I'll have this question asked on the show so I can turn it back to the audience. Otherwise, I'll start looking harder next week.
A related question would be that if the grid went down, how would we find each other, communicate?
This is one of the reasons it's SO important that we do what we can to build a local infrastructure. I'm a hypocrite for saying it because we just don't have a lot of real life friends or family close to where I live but we're growing it. For the first time in many years, I'm actually meaningfully talking to neighbors, shop owners, and people I'd normally never engage with beyond, "Hi, how are you?"

Excellent question Cindi.

Well stated Cindi.
I especially like the people who say they will refuse to use it, as if there will be an alternative choice.

*sigh*
I should have been more specific. I don't do any social media so I'm not going to go on Facebook to look for anybody so need other resources

Im sorry if I missed it? Have not seen answer?
Is this the First time that FEMA help has been refused by the feds at scene of catastrophic environmental disaster in Palatine in Ohio
NOTHING that we're hearing coming out of East Palestine should be considered true until it's verified by trustworthy sources. Unfortunately, I've had a hard time finding sources on the ground that I trust.

A freer state will only delay the inevitable if things get REALLY bad. But a delay may be just what we need to get as prepared as possible.
I guess thats true and also many more like minded in the same boat.

OMFG have I ever got a question for you JD ... been sitting in this one for 2-3 months ...
Last year you said you had access to info that revealed that 27 precious metals (G&S) brokers were making regular donations to the DEM party ...
NAMES PLEASE !
I spend much time in the finance-macro space and I'm not gonna let you off the hook on this ...
Love the question. Unfortunately it's just not possible to name names without risking a lawsuit that I cannot afford.
