Just when it seems like we can’t possibly go any lower, we always manage to top ourselves.  In the old days, every once in a while I would come across a story that would make me shake my head in disbelief because it was just so absurd.  Now it is happening on a daily basis.  In this article I am going to share some examples with you.  I realize that some of these things are difficult to believe, but all of them are true.  Our country really is coming apart at the seams right in front of our eyes, and the pace of our national decline only seems to be accelerating.  If we are not able to turn our cultural decay around, eventually we will not have a country at all.

For years, bad things have been happening to California.  Is there a reason why the state is being forced to endure crisis after crisis?  This week, an unprecedented heat wave is making headlines all over the globe.  Over a million California residents experienced high temperatures of at least 110 degrees on Tuesday, and Wednesday was the ninth day in a row when at least some part of the state has been under a heat alert.  Of course this comes at the tail end of a summer that has been extremely bitter.  The endless heat and endless drought have been absolutely devastating agricultural production, and it seems like the wildfires never stop.

The ultra-wealthy are some of the best preppers in the entire world.  I realize that statement may sound strange to many of you, but it is actually true.  The elite are very well aware that we are on the precipice of a full-blown societal meltdown, and many of them are spending enormous amounts of time, money and energy to prepare themselves for the extremely difficult times that are rapidly approaching.  In some cases, ultra-wealthy individuals are forking out giant mountains of cash for luxurious underground bunkers in the middle of nowhere.  In other cases, elitists are actually buying citizenship in far away foreign lands that they think will be safe.  We are talking about some of the smartest and wealthiest people in our entire society, and they are so freaked out about what is coming that they have become absolutely obsessed with trying to save themselves.

A number of people have asked me about the Shemitah year lately, and so in this article I will attempt to provide some answers.  According to Orthodox Judaism, the current 7 year Shemitah cycle will end and a new 7 year Shemitah cycle will begin when Rosh Hashanah arrives on the evening of September 25th.  But that assumes that they have been calculating the Shemitah cycles correctly.  There are some that believe that this is not actually a Shemitah year at all.  There are others that believe that a Shemitah year should begin on the first day of the Biblical year and not on Rosh Hashanah.  And then there is the debate between those that believe a full Jubilee cycle is 49 years long and those that believe a full Jubilee cycle is 50 years long.  As you can see, researching this topic can quickly become extremely complicated.  So let me start off by reviewing some of the basics.  This is what Wikipedia has to say about how the Shemitah year is observed in the land of Israel today… (Read More...)

Have you noticed that more people than ever in our society seem to be going completely crazy?  And when I say crazy, I don’t mean it in a fun, non-threatening way.  All over the country, we are literally seeing people “go psycho” and commit some of the most heinous acts of violence imaginable.  It is almost as if we have all been transported into a game of “Grand Theft Auto” where people feel free to indulge their basest instincts.  In recent months I have repeatedly written about the fact that crime rates have been soaring, but it isn’t just the number of crimes that is alarming.  We are starting to see things happen in our streets that are so bizarre that it is difficult to believe that they are actually real.  In fact, many of them seem like they have been pulled right out of an extremely violent Hollywood movie.

America’s public schools have never been worse than they are right now.  Test scores are falling, and many of our kids cannot read, write, speak or do basic math effectively.  As a result, each level of education has had to be “dumbed down”, because each year the next incoming class has been woefully unprepared at the previous level.  This is one of the big reasons why many tests these days require only answers that are true/false or multiple choice.  Our kids are simply not equipped to handle much more than that.  Sadly, this is true even at the college level.  I spent eight years earning three degrees at a couple of the best public institutions in America, and the level of education that I received was exceedingly poor.  Even at that time, the family pet could have passed most of the “college courses” that I was forced to endure.  Of course things have only gotten far worse since then.

I don’t know how I could say it any more clearly.  At this moment, the vast majority of the population is completely and utterly unprepared for what is ahead of us.  Every day, there are more signs in the news that global events are starting to spiral out of control, but instead of using this summer to get prepared much of the population is partying instead.  This greatly frustrates me, because I have been working extremely hard to try to sound the alarm.  People should be using the window of opportunity that we have this summer to take action, because the months ahead of us will be filled with famine, war, pestilence, natural disasters and severe economic troubles.  Summer officially ends in late September, and I believe that global events will accelerate greatly throughout the remainder of 2022 and into the early stages of 2023.

You have probably noticed that food prices just keep going up at the grocery store.  Many people believe that this is just a temporary phenomenon, and those people would be wrong.  In fact, things are really going to start going haywire when a lot of the food that is supposed to be on our store shelves in 2023 doesn’t show up.  Of course the reason that food isn’t going to be there is because it isn’t being grown in 2022.  This summer, food production in the United States is constantly being slammed by one disaster after another.  Sadly, most Americans still don’t understand that this is going to deeply affect all of us in the months ahead.
