Stand for America - Brittney Griner National Anthem
15 months ago, Brittney Griner, the all-star WNBA center and 2-time gold medal Olympian, and was detained for drug smuggling, and eventually found guilty in a Russian court.
She actually admitted it. And for her crimes, she was sentenced to 9-years in a Russian penal colony. A little harsh by our standards. Heck, I can’t walk down the street downtown anymore without a waft of pot reminding me that times have changed here.
But in my opinion, this was parking ticket offense compared to the disrespect she had for our country and all those who died in the name of Freedom, when she refused to stand in respect for the American flag, our national anthem, and the country for which it stands, before her WNBA games - back before she ended up in the Russian gulag.
People died for this flag. Literally died for it. Maybe while racing forward with it on the killing fields of Antietam, maybe while laying down fire so others could raise it over a mound of dirt called Iwo Jima, maybe while wearing it on their sleeves as they were clearing buildings in Fallujah. People bled for this flag. People lost limbs and burned for this flag. People paid the ultimate sacrifice and died for this flag.
And yet, Griner and countless others can’t even bear to stand 1 minute and 56 seconds during the national anthem to honor it. To honor them.
That’s right, Griner, along with teammate Brianna Turner, called for the WNBA to stop playing the national anthem before the games. She said "I honestly feel we should not play the national anthem during our season. I think we should take that much of a stand." How courageous Brittney. Wow. What a statement.
She further went on to say that she does not believe that the national anthem should be played at sporting events at all.
And this, to protest the alleged systematic injustices and transgressions of the United States and the flag which represents it. That was 2020.
Well guess what, she’s standing now.
You see, after a short stint in a Russian penitentiary, she’s come around. She’s realized how naïve she was. How selfish and self-centered she was. How disrespectful she was.
You see, despite our current idiocy in D.C. - and the forces at work trying to divide us, America is still the greatest country on earth.
I said this back when she sentenced.
I said I hoped she could come home some day. And I said that when she did, I would welcome her back like the prodigal child she was. Because that’s what she was. A child. A grown confused child.
So when she was released in a prisoner exchange sponsored by the Biden regime, I was happy for her. I was disappointed of course that Paul Whelan, a former US marine, accused of espionage was ignored and forgotten – and still sits in a Russian prison.
And despite the fact that the Biden regime clearly missed the chapter in the Art of the Deal about negotiating, by giving up a legitimate Russian bad guy for a basketball player – I was still happy she could come home.
I remember seeing her board the plane. She was a different person. She seemed hollow. Shell shocked. Silent. Different.
And now, five months after her release, she finally made her return to the court. The flag was flying. The national anthem was playing.
And she was standing. At attention almost. Gazing up at that beautiful, glorious old flag of ours. Yep, she’s a different woman now. I guess a little bit of Russian prison will do that to you.
Good for you Brittney. Welcome home.
This is the America I love folks. You can be the stupidest person on earth. You can have huge lapses in judgement. You can even be a convicted international criminal.
But Americans forgive. Because we love America. And we love Americans.
If you share our values, our love of country, our way of life – we will love you.
This … is We the People.
And We the people need to keep America free. We the People need to stick together as Pack. If we don’t, the America we love… our America we love… will be lost.
I invite you to join me, and join the cause.
What do you think? And where do you stand on this one?

Until next time, be ready, be strong, be alert and keep on prepping.

New Government Plan - Will You Comply?
https://nutrientsurvival.com Use code YT10 for 10% off. I'm going to tell it like it is: there is a movement afoot to control you, at the state, federal, and even the global level. What we just experienced over the past couple of years was a dress rehearsal. Candidly, the powers that be liked what they saw, and they learned a lot about us as a people, as a society. They saw that creating a global crisis allowed them to make rules, requirements, and mandates that changed our behaviors on a compliant, massive scale. This resulted in, by exception, submission to their agenda - their agenda to control you, to control me, 80% of us went along. Some of us, like me, went along because we didn't want to deal with the BS anymore. You see, I wanted to travel internationally to see my son, who's a swimmer, compete. And if I didn't go along, I wouldn't be able to leave or get back without incredible hassle due to the rules, the limitations, the difficulties involved with international travel. And even with me going along, it was still a pain to travel quasi-freely, quasi. To me, my family was more important. And so I said, "Screw it, stick me. That's the truth. I'm going to die somehow anyway. It might as well be that way."
But here's the thing. The government, elected and unelected, didn't force me to do anything. I could have held out, but I didn't want to anymore. Many of you did hold out, and I'm honestly very proud of you. You've given me tremendous hope. But what they learned is that most everyone has a breaking point. Some easier to break than others, as you know. And the more coordinated the narrative, the more difficult they are, the more hostile they can make your neighbor, your grocer, your restaurateur, your barber, your banker, your doctor, towards those that don't comply, the more pressure you'll feel to say uncle and call that a day. This pressure had one goal in mind: to control you. And for the most part, it worked.
So now here comes the next globalist idea, the next federal idea, the next state idea. Everyone needs to give up their cash and go to a centralized banking digital currency. You've heard of them. They're in the news; they're everywhere. And while you're at it, let's make sure you get a digital identification card too. So what happens when we say, "Nope, we're not going to give up my cash, I'm not going to give up my currency"? Well, first they're going to make your cash worthless. And we're seeing this with the printing of trillions of dollars of paper, and it's devaluing everything you've been saving for your whole life. Then they're going to make it so cash isn't accepted anymore. We're already seeing it; it's already here. Some places refuse to take it. And besides, folks, it's so 19th century. I mean, Apple Pay is way easier and way cooler. Come on, man, get with the program, Jack.
Yep, some of us will voluntarily walk away from cash and other currencies out of convenience. But what if you still refuse to comply? What if you want to use cash? Well, that's when they won't sell you food. There's an old saying, and this is where it's all going: "Control the food, control the people." I used to think that this was because of the welfare state, control the food, control the people, the welfare state. Because when you can't eat, well, you get in line and you wait for the handout of government cheese. But guess what? It's not about welfare at all. It's about control, which you may argue is welfare, but it's about control. If you're hungry, you'll do what they say. Yes, you'll get in line. Then you'll sign up for digital food stamps. You'll get the digital ID. You'll support digital currency. You'll snitch on your neighbors that aren't with the program for an extra piece of chicken. You'll do what they say. And in doing so, you will surrender your freedom and you will be in their control. They will tell you what you get to eat this week. They will have a record of how many loaves of bread you got. They will say, "Sorry, no meat for you. Let little Johnny eat bugs."
This is why it's important to become self-reliant, to learn how to grow a garden, how to preserve fruits and vegetables, how to hunt, how to fish. This is why it's important to stock up with layers of food because one more day, one more week, one more month of food on your own means that it's one more without surrendering your freedom. And this is why, folks, this is why we do what we do here at Nutrient Survival. You see, we are not a survival food company. We're a freedom company, and we happen to sell survival food. It's why we say, "Feed your freedom." Yeah, it's a clever and catchy little sales line, but we mean it, I mean it. And it's why I'm out here talking to you. I'm putting myself, my family, my future at risk. I'm not doing this to sell you a can of lasagna. I'm doing this because I believe in freedom and I believe in you.

EMP Protection and Preparedness with EMPDoctor - What You Need to Know
https://nutrientsurvival.com Code YT10 for 10% off your order.
Learn more about the products discussed in this episode:
https://disasterpreparer.com
https://emfbeacon.com
Dr. Arthur Bradley, better known as the EMP Doctor, is a best-selling author of the Survivalist series. He holds a doctorate in engineering from Auburn University and currently works as a senior engineer for NASA. Additionally, he is a former Army veteran. Dr. Bradley also runs a website called Disaster Preparer (not prepper). During an interview, he describes EMP as an acronym for electromagnetic pulse, a term that refers to various sources of electromagnetic energy. While lightning is one source of EMP, people often talk about EMP attacks, which are nuclear-generated high-altitude EMPs detonated hundreds of miles above the earth's surface. The electromagnetic wave created during an EMP attack can cause damage to electronic devices by flowing into electrical conductors. Some people also talk about EMPs in reference to solar coronal mass ejections, which are different from nuclear-generated EMPs. Dr. Bradley explains the differences between the two and notes that nuclear-generated EMPs have three components (E1, E2, and E3) and are much more powerful than coronal mass ejections from the sun.
Is it a thousand times more powerful from a nuke blast, or is this just kind of business as usual? Well, so they're different. A nuclear-generated EMP has three components to it, the waveform components. And everybody talks about E1, E2, and E3. Those are the three components, and they're each worth understanding.
So E1 is the thing that immediately happens after the detonation. It's a very, very narrow pulse of energy that perturbs the Earth. It only lasts maybe about 20 nanoseconds, so a very small amount of time, but it's supremely powerful. You might generate fields of 50,000 volts per meter, which is a lot. And so that can cause damage to nearly anything. Small-scale electronics like your phone or your car or anything like that, those are all considered small scale, as well as propagating energy into longer conductors, which can damage other things. So you get this E1 burst.
Now the sun does not emit anything like that. So there is no E1 burst from the sun. So that's good news. The sun's never going to damage your cell phone or your car or anything like that because it doesn't have energy to get into those small devices. The EMP also has an E2, which is very similar to a lightning type event. So a nearby lightning strike generates something akin to an E2. So, you know, nearby lightning can cause damages. And that's very similar to what an EMP does from its E2 waveform. If you have normal protectors on your systems like surge protection and stuff, they will generally protect against E2. They're just designed for that frequency spectrum. They won't do much against E1 because E1 is just too fast. And then there's a third component, E3, which is a very long-duration sort of slow swelling of energy. You can think about it kind of like a flood where energy on the long conductor starts to rise over time slowly. And so you think about your power lines. They normally have, you know, 120 volts AC RMS on. They start to climb up and climb up. And that can cause damage to transformers as well as just anything else attached.
The sun also possesses the ability to create that E3. So if you looked at EMPs and the solar chroma mass ejection, they overlap at the E3. They can both generate an E3 event. And they can both destroy the power grid, and they can both cause lots and lots of damage to the country. So I would say both of them are equally dangerous in that way. The disadvantage of the EMP is it also has the E1 and the E2, which can damage all kinds of small-scale electronics as well. So in a sense, it's much worse than the CME because it just has that other compatibility there that's just spreading everything else.
Got it. Wow. That's fascinating. So a Nuke Blast generated EMP, this is the one that, you know, obviously most of us are concerned about. Alright, we're going to lose all our communications. Our cars are going to be fried. We are not going to be able to communicate. You know, it's kind of life as we know it. Our dependence on electronics is gone versus the slow swell of the E3 with significant damage to the power grid. Okay, but still, our electronics would work if it were a solar generated versus an EMP. Right. That's right. So your car is still going to start just fine and be able to drive until you run out of gas. Right.

Tucker Carlson Out at Fox News
https://nutrientsurvival.com Use codeYT10 for 10% off.
Tucker is out. He is canceled. He is canned and the left is rejoicing. That's right. The bombshell report came across the wire early today, came across my computer that Fox News and Tucker Carlson have parted ways. There was really no explanation why. Just a simple, we thank him for his service to the network. That's classic corporate speak for get out of here. And that was his last show that we saw last Friday, April 21st.
It is stunning because Tucker's show was must-watch TV for half the country, at least half the country. In fact, he was the highest-rated single host at Fox News. And for all that, he got his pink slip this morning. The left is singing hallelujah. CNN called him a right-wing extremist who used his prime-time perch at the talk network to exert a firm grip over the Republican party. Yeah, that's right. No one's talking about Don Lemon being canned today. Everyone is hypothesizing why, though. Why is Tucker out?
And here are the two main reasons that you're gonna hear in the news. Number one, follow the money. Just a week ago, Fox News sold a monster defamation lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems. It was almost $800 million over the network's coverage. If you recall, Dan Bongino last week said he was leaving the network. Well, apparently, that was just the first domino. But Tucker was part of that coverage. And you may not know this, but there's another lawsuit out there still being brought by Sparkmatic. It's another polling manufacturing machine company. So we haven't seen the end of all the defamation lawsuits yet. But if that $800 million settlement has anything to do with what's coming down the pike, well, there's more to come. Then there's the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg. She was a Fox News producer who was fired by the network last month. And she alleges a sexist work environment, among other things. So it's pretty simple. It's just math. When the cost of something outweighs the benefit of something, regardless of your ratings, you're gonna be out. And that's what Fox News Corp, or Fox Corp, and Chairman Rupert Murdoch decided as they evaluated the facts.
Okay, so both of those seem like legitimate grounds for a termination, for a departure. But I really, really believe there's something more at play here. And that's everything to do with control the narrative to control the people. Let's face it. Tucker Carlson was the deep state and the mainstream media's public enemy, number one. It was only a matter of time before he would be silenced one way or another. It always happens this way. You are eventually silenced.
Tucker wasn't afraid to take on what every other news reporter or network was afraid of. He was original, he was bold, he was unafraid. And now he's gone. Even if he were to try to rebuild his platform, it would take years. And again, the left is clapping. Just look at how hard it's been for Bill O'Reilly or Glenn Beck without the might of a network like Fox News behind you as a platform. It's very, very difficult.
Don't forget also that it was Tucker who blew the lid on the January 6th Capitol riot. He obliterated the prosecution and the January 6th committee's assertion about what went down that day. And how did he do it? He simply played the videotapes of what happened, of what went down. And none of us had seen any of that until he played them on national news, on prime-time national news. And the alleged insurrectionists strolling through the Capitol, being escorted by Capitol Police and taking selfies along the way were all news to us. New news.
And it was Tucker who just had on Elon Musk and blew the lid on the FBI's undue influence on social media with his release of the Twitter files. Many people before this had heard about what Elon was doing and had seen what Matt Taibbi and others were doing with the Twitter files being enabled by Elon Musk, making very public all of this information that some suspected, but we didn't have clear evidence of. Now, when Tucker put it on air, people like my mom and dad found out about it for the first time, and people listened, and people were disgusted. And now we know it is systemic. The three-letter agencies are systemic in our social media to control the narrative.
And it was Tucker who continues to beat the drum about Hunter Biden lying about his laptop, lying about his Chinese dealings, lying about Ukraine dealings, lying about Russia dealings, and all the like. You see, to the deep state, Tucker was dangerous. He was too dangerous. And so they took him out.

Prepping Russia Ukraine and China - Cold War Prepper
http://nutrientsurvival.com It's not every day that you get a chance to speak to a former Russian codebreaker, but that's who we have with us today in Lee, the Cold War prepper. He runs a YouTube channel, is a member of a lot of different preparedness groups, has been a civil servant for his entire life, and he's here today to talk to us a little bit about some of the things that we're all scratching our heads on these days. So Lee, it's great to have you, and I appreciate all the great promotional support in the background there. Shameless plugs. Oh, shucks. Yeah, it's there. -Yeah. -In all my videos. -Awesome. -Welcome. -Well, thank you. Yeah, man. Definitely.
Let me start with this. Someone who is fluent in Russian. You know, you don't meet folks like that every day. My roommate at West Point actually took Russian. But you've been a student of Russian strategy and tactics since, well, probably back Cuban Missile Crisis time. And in fact, it was your career for 20-something years and maybe even beyond that.
You were with the Army Security Agency, Military Intelligence, and you had to have some pretty unique perspectives on what's happening today over in Russia and Ukraine.
So do you want to talk a little bit about prepping for food prepping and planning? You talk about, like, first, you need to make sure you're the scenario, like what's happened and then the timeline for how long it's going to be or, like, where you are in the timeline. So can you give our audience a little bit of that perspective of mentality on how you approach prepping?"
Sure. So let's take a look at my life. So, you know, back in 1963, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, we had lifeboat rations and we had spam and a couple of other things, you know, canned dried beef. So that didn't become that much of an issue. But later on, back in the '80s, we had in the '70s started out with Mountain House. You now had a source of food company where you get some freeze-dried foods that would last you twenty-five years shelf life. So what I say is when do we anticipate whatever event is going to happen to happen? If you think you have a long time between now and when the event's going to happen, freeze-dried foods make the best sense because they're going to have a long shelf life. Then question number two becomes one of how long is the event itself and its total effects going to last? Okay, if we say that we're going to suffer an EMP and it's going to take down 90 percent of the US and we have two years' worth of seeds stored and we have two years' worth of freeze-dried food stored. But this event's going to last five years. We're not going to survive through it because we're one year short of covering that devastating time. So we've got to say we have to have enough so we can survive through that entire devastating event until it comes back to normal. And so then that tells you how much you need to get prior to the event. The longer time you have, the less money you spend, the more you can accumulate over time. If it's a very short horizon, if you think that World War III is going to happen before the end of the summer, then there's another triangle I use. And on the top, you've got time. Over here, you've got cost. And over here, you've got quality. Okay, so if you want it fast and cheap, it's going to be low quality because you can only have two of the three points at one time. If you want it fast and good, it's going to cost you a lot of money. It's not going to be cheap. If you want it inexpensive and good quality, then it's going to take you a long time to acquire it. So that's the basis I use for anything I do as far as planning food. And that is how much time do I have until the event? How long will the event last? And then what can I do to fill those gaps where I need to have my food?"

Time to Draft Women in Combat?
https://nutrientsurival.com Here's something that I guarantee will make you squirm. When I graduated West Point in 1991, only men could serve in the Army's combat arms. That's infantry, armor, field artillery, air defense artillery. No one really asked about the reasons why because to me, to us, it all seemed pretty obvious. These roles in combat arms often had physical requirements that were beyond the strength of your average woman. Yes, there are exceptions, but I'm sorry. Men are typically physically stronger than women. And beyond that, the idea of sending women to a combat zone where they could be taken prisoner by an immoral or evil enemy like Al Qaeda or the Taliban and be subjected to sexual abuse at best and tortured to death at worst and then have them sent back home in body bags, it wasn't a very appealing idea. I mean, we know what these guys are capable of doing. We know what our enemies are up to. Have we already forgotten the beheadings?
Okay, now over the years, that restriction has changed. And since 2015, the Department of Defense has opened all combat roles and combat operations to women too. And this is good. Now, we've even had some women take part in and complete special ops training like Ranger School, like SFAS, Special Forces Assessment and Selection, like the Naval Special Warfare Corps and the like. Now to my knowledge, there are no women Navy SEALs or Marsok Marine Raiders, though some have tried. So clearly, women are able and willing to serve in a combat capacity up to including our most elite fighting forces like the special ops.
Now, as a father with a daughter, I am very thankful for those women pioneers out there who have paved the way for others who choose to serve in that capacity to do so. And as the old saying goes, and I'm reminded frequently at my house, whatever a man can do, a woman can do better. It's true, honey.
So that said, let me turn the tables on you for just a minute. This will be interesting. I wonder if it's time to require all women to register for the draft as well. Now hear me out. Today, despite all the progress women have made, there is still no requirement to sign up for the Selective Service. It is only a requirement for biological males to do so. In fact, even trans women have to register for the draft. Those are that were born male, but transition gender. And the opposite does not apply. So again, it is biological males sign up for the draft.
Now, maybe this is a completely philosophical question anyway. As we all know, we have an entirely volunteer armed force. And we haven't used the draft since the Vietnam War.
We are spreading ourselves thin across the globe as the world's police force. We're depleting our munitions stockpiles, and we can't make enough to get them back into shape. We're handing out our military equipment to bad actors like the Taliban and even new friends like Ukraine. It's just like candy at a parade. And we're facing waning recruitment numbers with tens of thousands of unfilled roles.
So all this coupled with a very real threat of fighting on multiple fronts, it's very likely, be it with China over Taiwan, Russia over Ukraine, North Korea over South Korea, or Iran over Israel. I don't know where it will happen, but something will happen. I mean, what more of a threat do we need to justify opening up the draft to all able-bodied Americans? Maybe at the same time, we should even increase the draft eligible age as well. We are living longer, you know. Currently it caps at 25. Maybe we should take it to 30, who knows?
Now, if you're still with me and you know me at all, you probably know that what I'm saying is just to make a point. To tell you the truth, I don't want to see women drafted. And that's because I don't want to see my daughter sent over to a foreign land to die for a dirty politician. And I don't want to see my son sent over for that reason either.
War is hell. And it doesn't matter what sex your birth certificate says you are when you have a bullet through your chest or you get your legs blown off or your face is burned down to the bone. In all cases, the outcome is the same. And for many, it ends in a black body bag.
No, I think we keep it just the way it is. Call me old fashioned. Call me whatever you want. I think it's great if women want to join the combat arms. I think it's great if they want to volunteer. I think it's great if they can get through ranger school. I think it's great if they can get through Seal school, through BUDS. And I know it's just a matter of time before someone worthy, someone worthy does. Don't change the standards. I guarantee you that a woman that is trying to break the barrier to get through seal school, buds, they don't want your charity. And they would appreciate if you kept the standards high.

Avian Influenza HPAI Bird Flu Chicken Farming with Dr. Bruce Stewart-Brown of Perdue Farms
HPAI stands for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, also known as bird flu. It is a viral disease that can infect domesticated and wild birds, and in some cases, it can be transmitted to humans. HPAI viruses are highly contagious and can cause severe illness and death in birds.
There are many strains of HPAI viruses, including the H5N1, H7N9, and H5N8 subtypes, which have caused outbreaks in poultry populations around the world. The H5N1 subtype, in particular, has caused concern because of its potential to spread to humans and cause a global pandemic.
Prevention and control measures for HPAI include vaccination of poultry, biosecurity measures, surveillance, and early detection of outbreaks.
HPAI can be particularly devastating in chickens, as they are highly susceptible to the virus and can quickly become infected and die. The virus is spread through direct contact with infected birds, as well as through contaminated feed, water, and equipment.
Chickens infected with HPAI may exhibit symptoms such as sudden death, decreased egg production, respiratory distress, swelling and discoloration of the comb and wattles, and diarrhea. However, some chickens may not show any symptoms at all.
If HPAI is suspected in a flock of chickens, it is important to immediately isolate and cull any infected birds and properly dispose of their carcasses. In addition, the premises should be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to prevent the spread of the virus. Biosecurity measures, such as restricting access to the flock and screening visitors, can also help prevent the introduction of the virus to a farm.
Bird flu, also known as avian influenza, is a viral disease that primarily affects birds, including domesticated poultry such as chickens and turkeys, as well as wild birds. The disease is caused by influenza A viruses, which can be divided into two main categories: low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) and highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI).
LPAI usually causes mild or no symptoms in birds and is not considered a significant threat to public health. However, HPAI viruses can cause severe disease and death in poultry populations and may also pose a risk to human health. Some HPAI viruses have been known to cause severe respiratory illness in humans, and in rare cases, have been associated with deaths.
Bird flu is spread through direct contact with infected birds or their droppings, as well as through contaminated surfaces, equipment, and feed. Wild birds can also carry and spread the virus without showing any symptoms.
Prevention and control measures for bird flu include biosecurity measures such as controlling access to poultry farms, ensuring proper sanitation and hygiene, and separating different bird species to prevent transmission. In addition, vaccination can be used to reduce the spread of the virus in poultry populations.
In humans, antiviral drugs may be used to treat severe cases of bird flu, and in some cases, vaccines may be developed to prevent the spread of the virus from birds to humans. It is important to note that the risk of human infection with bird flu is generally low, but it is important to practice good hygiene and avoid contact with sick or dead birds.

Will America Fall? Collapse of an Empire
https://nutrientsurvival.com Economically, the dollar is on the ropes. No longer seen as the infallible global currency, our adversaries – and even our friends - are brimming with excitement that the dollar’s grip on the global economy is about to end.
China is striking deals with Russia, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia for international trade in the respective nation’s currencies, and away from the dollar - and the petrodollar.
Even our oldest ally, France is turning it’s back. Just this week, after a short visit with Chinese President Xi Jingping, French President Emmanuel Macron called for reduced reliance on the US dollar – and toward strategic autonomy instead of being a vassal of the US.
What a slap in the face. So obviously all the ass-kissing President Biden has been doing in Europe has gotten him – and us - nothing. Bring on another Paris accord ok.
Militarily, we’re about to get called on what I believe is smoke screen strength. Our demise will probably go down like big bad Russia - who marched into Ukraine and freaked the world out with thoughts of “this is the end of Ukraine.” Low and behold that didn’t happen, and a year later – here we are - Russia has its tail between its legs like a beaten dog – wishing they had never embarked on their “special military operation”.
The same fate waits for us - the U.S. – we’re living a lie. Our ammunition is depleted. Our forces are spread thin. And worse of all, our morale is low. We are laughed at because we are wussies. Big guns, but no balls to use them. Our military has lost faith in our commander in chief and the many woke appointees wearing the stars that he gave them. Everyone I talk to that’s in can’t wait to get out. Our real warriors are walking away. And our recruitment numbers are way off where they need to be across every branch of service. That shouldn’t be a surprise.
Our military leaders have alienated half the country because of their blind kow towing to what in their heart of hearts they know to be wrong. Walking away from Afghanistan and leaving billions of military equipment behind for the Taliban. Watching balloons float across our country gathering valuable intelligence on our strategic nuclear missile programs. Cowering away from these tangible threats without action, but instead just words – just weak concessions like “we seek competition. We do not seek conflict.” And finally, knowingly following illegitimate “science” – forcing objectors – warrior objectors -- to the vax out of service, even those with strongly held religious beliefs.
What was once a noble mission to fight and win our nation’s wars, is now more about complying with woke liberal policies and calling someone by their preferred pronouns than it is about duty, honor, country.
And domestically - here at home, our nation is more divided than ever. Blue vs. Red. Urban vs. rural. Christian vs. secular.
The only thing preventing us from all out civil war is our inability to draw the battle lines. So we sit by seething. Carefully determining who we can trust and who can’t. It’s a scene right out of the revolutionary war with the loyalists to the crown walking the same streets as the insurrectionists that today we call our founding fathers.
Crime surrounds us. We have no law and order. The liberal elites defund the police, and then cry when their homes and their businesses are ransacked by hoodlum criminals. I admire businesses like Walmart and CVS that keep it objective. They just shut their doors and walk away when the cost of doing business is greater than benefit of keeping the lights on. And predictably, they are attacked by the very people who they serve but then demonize them for their for profit interests – for pulling out, and refusing to operate stores even though it puts their business and employees at risk. You can’t have it both ways.
Our southern border is like a sieve. We have no border. Illegal immigration has become the new national pastime. Our border patrol agents have lost faith in their leadership, and fear being punished for doing their jobs.
And because of this illegal immigration has exploded – and along with it our adversaries are stuffing the flow of illegal aliens full of fighting age operatives who will infiltrate, blend in, create sleeper cells, and then - follow their foreign orders towards destroying the U.S. from within. That assumes of course, that we’re not already gone by our own doing. And all the while, we pretend like nothings the matter. It’s just another day in paradise.
For those that are awake, it frightens us. It chills us. It eats at us. But for those who sleep. Put their heads in the sand. Cast their ballots blindly for more of the same. They deserve what they get. Higher prices. Greater debt. Servitude. It’s what they want – to control you.

RED DAWN ALERT - Chinese Spies on USA Soil
https://nutrientsurvival.com We have an enemy from within. And they’re from China.
While the memories of the spy balloon floating across our country are still fresh in our minds, and calls for TikTok’s ban is this week’s latest headline, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Beijing’s use of intelligence gathering on the U.S. In fact, in 2021, the Center for Strategic & International Studies – the CSIS -- a think tank in Washington, DC - compiled a list of 160 incidents of Chinese espionage directed at the US since 2000. And that was in 2021 so it doesn’t include all the more recent incidents that we’ve heard about.
And what you’re feeling is true, Chinese spying is on the rise – with 76% of those incidents happening in the last decade. And it’s understated because the CSIS noted that its list was derived from open-source material and likely didn’t comprise the actual total number of incidents happening. Not only that but since Xi Jinping took over, more than half of these incidents occurred under his watch – or should I say direction.
So what are the Chinese doing? Well we all know they’re hacking our computers, and using satellites and balloons to suck up imagery, but I’m going to go old school and talk about the HUMINT side of things –HUMINT of course meaning HUMAN INTELLIGENCE. PEOPLE SPIES.
Let’s start with secret agents. In 2020, then-US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo – a West Point grad I might add – said that the Chinese Consulate in Manhattan was being used as a major hub of Beijing’s espionage program. “They’re engaged in activities where they’re crossing the line from normal diplomacy to the kinds of things that would be more akin to what spies are doing,” he said at the time.
Here’s one of my favorites. The honeypot trap. Right out of the ancient Chinese strategems. Back then it was called the “beauty trap” but it still works just as well. Honey trapping is the use of romantic or sexual relationships to glean information or influence over their target. And let’s face it. Men are stupid. We fall for this every time, and we always will.
So let’s talk about Fang Fang. She was a Chinese spy that cuddled up with Rep. Eric Swalwell of California. Fang, also known as “Christine Fang,” was a Swalwell fundraiser who also helped place at least one intern in his office. Why Swalwell? Well he was a key member of the House Intelligence Committee – who knows what pillow talk happened in between massages.
Finally, the one I’m most concerned about. Our southern border.
It’s been clear for some time that we have no southern border. Thanks to the Biden administration we’ve opened the door wide open for anyone and everyone to come on through. And that includes the Chinese. In fact, according to the Customs and Border Protection – the CBP, the number of Chinese migrants illegally crossing into the US during the last three months of 2022 skyrocketed by over 700% compared to the same period a year earlier.
The CBP apprehended 1,862 Chinese nationals trying to cross the US-Mexico border during the last quarter of 2022 compared to 229 during those same months in 2021. And the number of Chinese nationals illegally crossing into the US this fiscal year, which kicked off in October, is set to eclipse the total number caught in the entirety of 2022. Most of those caught are single adults. Single male adults. Fighting age male adults. Spying age male adults.
So where does this leave us? The answer. In trouble.
You see, while we the people have become a society of instant gratification, the Chinese on the other hand are patient.
As the ancient Chinese stratagem goes … “Wait at leisure while the enemy labors”

RED DAWN ALERT - WEAK LINK IN THE ARMOR - USA No New Tanks
http://nutrientsurvival.com The Lima Army Tank Plant, or Joint Systems Manufacturing Center (JSMC), is a major U.S. Army tank manufacturing facility that has been in operation since 1942. The plant has been responsible for producing a variety of armored vehicles over the years, including the M4 Sherman, M26 Pershing, M60 Patton, and M1 Abrams main battle tanks.
Currently, the plant is responsible for the production of the M1 Abrams tank, which is the main battle tank used by the U.S. Army and several other countries around the world. The plant produces various versions of the tank, including the M1A1, M1A2, and M1A2 SEP (System Enhancement Package) versions.
The plant has undergone several modernization efforts over the years, and is now a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility that utilizes advanced technologies and processes to produce high-quality armored vehicles for the U.S. military and its allies.
The number of tanks produced at the Lima Army Tank Plant, or Joint Systems Manufacturing Center (JSMC), can vary depending on the needs of the U.S. military and its allies. However, the plant has the capacity to produce up to 120 tanks per year.
The U.S. Army often brings in older M1 Abrams tanks to the Lima Army Tank Plant for upgrades. This is done to extend the service life of these tanks and to bring them up to the latest standards of performance and technology.
The upgrade process typically involves stripping the tank down to its basic components and then rebuilding it with updated systems and components. Some of the upgrades that can be installed on older M1 Abrams tanks include:
Improved armor protection: This can include new composite armor, explosive reactive armor (ERA), and/or active protection systems (APS) to improve the tank's ability to withstand enemy fire.
New fire control systems: These can include upgraded gun sights, thermal imaging systems, and targeting computers to improve accuracy and situational awareness.
Upgraded engines and transmissions: These can improve the tank's mobility and reliability.
Digital electronic architecture: This can include updated computers and communications systems to improve the tank's connectivity with other battlefield assets.
By upgrading older tanks, the U.S. Army is able to keep its armored forces up-to-date and ready for any future conflicts. The Lima Army Tank Plant is equipped to perform these upgrades and has the necessary expertise and facilities to handle the complex process of modernizing the M1 Abrams tank.

SURVIVAL SITREP - U.S. Launches Airstrikes in Syria After Military Bases Attacked
https://nutrientsurvival.com
On March 23rd (approximately 1:38 p.m. local time) , a U.S. contractor was killed and five U.S. service members and one additional U.S. contractor were wounded after a one-way unmanned aerial vehicle struck a maintenance facility on a Coalition base near Hasakah in northeast Syria. The intelligence community assess the UAV to be of Iranian origin.
In retaliation, President Biden authorized U.S. Central Command forces to conduct precision airstrikes in eastern Syria against facilities used by groups affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). The airstrikes were conducted in response to these attack as well as a series of recent attacks against Coalition forces in Syria by groups affiliated with the IRGC.
With an estimated 900 troops deployed in the country. The U.S. military presence in Syria began in 2015 as part of the international coalition fighting against the Islamic State (IS) group.
The U.S. military has maintained several bases in Syria, including a military airbase in Al-Tanf, in southeastern Syria, and a base in northeastern Syria. These bases serve as key locations for U.S. forces to carry out operations against the IS group, train and equip local forces, and maintain a military presence in the region. However, the situation on the ground in Syria is complex, with multiple actors involved in the conflict, and the presence of U.S. military bases has been a contentious issue for some parties involved.
Our forces have been attacked 78 times since 2021.
