Staring Down Danger: How to Handle Intimidating Eye Contact with Confidence

Understanding the Power of a Stare

Eye contact is one of the most basic yet potent forms of human communication. It can convey interest, confidence, or curiosity—but it can also be used as a weapon.

When someone stares at you with bad intentions, it’s often a way to assert dominance or provoke a reaction. In such scenarios, ignoring it may seem like the best route, but doing so can send unintended signals of fear or weakness.

A deliberate, controlled response can make a significant difference in ensuring your safety and projecting strength.

Acknowledging Presence Without Escalating

Contrary to instinct, the first step in handling an aggressive stare is not to look away but to acknowledge the person’s presence. This doesn’t mean initiating a confrontation. A brief look that signals awareness is often enough.

The key is to avoid a prolonged stare, which could be interpreted as a challenge. A simple nod, preferably downward, can be a subtle cue that says, “I see you,” without fanning the flames of hostility. The way you manage this moment is essential; it communicates that you’re not an easy target while avoiding escalation.

Mastering the Subtle Art of Situational Awareness

Once you’ve acknowledged the individual, the next step is to maintain awareness of their position and actions. This doesn’t mean you should keep staring at them. Instead, use your surroundings strategically.

Reflective surfaces like shop windows or car mirrors can provide glimpses of what’s happening behind you without drawing attention to yourself. Stay observant but discreet. Knowing where the person is, who they’re with, and how they’re behaving offers critical insights and can help you anticipate any sudden movements or threats.

This situational awareness should extend to their companions as well. Often, individuals who try to intimidate do so with support nearby. Look for people dressed similarly or standing in close proximity.

These visual cues may indicate group dynamics and help you prepare for any group-based escalation. However, it’s crucial not to become overly focused. Hypervigilance can not only draw attention but also compromise your composure, making you appear anxious or uncertain.

Tactical Withdrawal: Leaving Without Turning Your Back

Knowing if the individual is alone or accompanied, and recognizing if someone attempts to follow or cut you off, can be the difference between avoiding danger and walking into a trap.

If you sense that the situation may escalate or if you’ve picked up on warning signs, it’s time to remove yourself. But leaving doesn’t mean retreating blindly. Tactical withdrawal involves walking away while keeping tabs on your environment.

Use your peripheral vision or reflective surfaces to monitor the person’s position. This allows you to move to safety without exposing your back or losing awareness of a potential threat.

This method, often referred to as situational awareness in reverse, is about staying one step ahead. Knowing if the individual is alone or accompanied, and recognizing if someone attempts to follow or cut you off, can be the difference between avoiding danger and walking into a trap. The goal isn’t to run but to relocate with awareness and purpose.

Confidence as the Ultimate Defense

Aggressive stares often come from a place of insecurity. Individuals who feel the need to assert dominance through intimidation are typically grappling with their own fears and self-worth. By understanding this, you can better manage your response. The goal isn’t to challenge them but to project inner confidence that renders their tactics ineffective.

One powerful way to build this confidence is through self-defense training. Learning how to fight doesn’t mean you’re looking for a fight.

It means you’re preparing yourself mentally and physically so that you never have to engage in one. This preparedness gives you the psychological edge to remain calm under pressure and to make smart, controlled decisions in tense situations.

Final Thoughts

Dealing with someone who stares at you with bad intentions is a psychological and situational challenge. It demands presence of mind, self-awareness, and a calm but firm approach.

Acknowledge them without antagonizing. Stay aware of your environment and any supporting individuals. Withdraw with intelligence, not fear. And above all, cultivate confidence that doesn’t rely on confrontation but on knowing your own strength.

These small but vital strategies can help you navigate hostile encounters with grace and safety. By preparing your mind and body, you ensure that the power of a stare remains just that—a look, not a threat.

8 Signs That The Bombing Of Iran Could Be Coming Very Soon

If bombs start falling on Iran’s nuclear facilities, it would instantly be the biggest news story of 2025 so far.  Iranian air defenses would need to be neutralized first, and that would be quite an extensive operation all by itself.  Subsequently, destroying Iran’s nuclear facilities would be extraordinarily difficult, because many of them are very deep underground.  We have heard a lot about our “bunker buster” bombs, but there is a lot of debate about whether those bombs can actually destroy facilities that are buried that deep.  Of course the moment the Iranians start getting bombed, they will strike back by hitting Israeli cities and U.S. bases all over the Middle East.  At that point we would be at war with the Iranians, and there would be no turning back.  The following are 8 signs that the bombing of Iran could be coming very soon…

#1 A second U.S. aircraft carrier is being moved within striking distance of Iran

New satellite imagery shows the USS Carl Vinson entering the Indian Ocean via the Malacca Straits, marking a significant step in the U.S. military’s increased presence in the region.

This move comes as tensions with Iran and the Houthis in Yemen escalate, signaling the potential for a more aggressive U.S. stance in the coming days and weeks.

#2 It is being reported that 6 B-2 bombers have been deployed to the base on Diego Garcia.  This represents 30 percent of our entire fleet of B-2 bombers…

In the largest single deployment of stealth bombers in U.S. history, the Pentagon has sent six B-2 “Spirit” aircraft to Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.

The long-range bombers, which are uniquely suited to evade Iranian air defenses and can carry America’s most potent bunker busting weapons, flew in from Missouri last week in a little noticed operation.

#3 The B-2 bombers that have been deployed to Diego Garcia are being left out in the open so that the Iranians can see them

“All the bombers, they’re not in hangers, they’re underneath satellites where they can be photographed and seen; and the idea is, do you see our sword?” retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt, who served as Deputy U.S. Military Representative to NATO, said in an interview with Newsmax last week. Holt also said that the B-2 deployment “gives the president a military option that he can actually use these weapons against Iran if needed.”

#4 Negotiations with Iran are scheduled to begin this weekend.  The New York Times is reporting that the Iranians are expected to reject President Trump’s demands…

But Mr. Trump’s public demands — that Iran stop nuclear enrichment, hand over its large supply of enriched uranium and destroy its existing nuclear facilities — will almost surely be rejected by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, as an unacceptable humiliation and surrender. How far both sides are willing to compromise is unclear, but Mr. Trump is well known for making ultimate demands at the start and then searching for a deal.

#5 President Trump is warning that if negotiations with the Iranians do not succeed “it will be a very bad day for Iran”…

Speaking from the White House’ Oval Office last night Trump warned Iran “would be in great danger” if the projected talks were stymied. He said: “We’re having direct talks with Iran, and they’ve started. It’ll go on Saturday.

“We have a very big meeting, and we’ll see what can happen. And I think everybody agrees that doing a deal would be preferable.

“Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and if the talks aren’t successful, I actually think it will be a very bad day for Iran”.

#6 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is openly telling us that a military strike on Iran has almost become “inevitable”…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that if US ‘indirect’ talks with Iran over its nuclear program fail, then a military attack becomes ‘inevitable’. He issued the warning fresh off his Monday Oval Office visit with President Trump, wherein the US leader announced for the first time that Saturday talks with the Iranians will be hosted in Oman.

Netanyahu said in the new video statement, ““We agree that Iran will not have nuclear weapons. This can be done in an agreement, but only if… they go in, blow up (Iran’s) facilities, dismantle all the equipment, under American supervision.” And he added: “If talks drag on, then the military option becomes inevitable.”

#7 Now that Trump is in the White House, the Israelis believe that now is “the optimum moment to deal with Iran”

An Israeli diplomatic source warned it is crucial a deal be thrashed out with Iran to temper its nuclear programme.

They said: “From Israel’s perspective, with Trump in the White House, this represents the optimum moment to deal with Iran. There won’t be a better chance.

“Obtaining precise intelligence on just how far Iran’s nuclear programme has advanced has always been hard to obtain.

“But the reality is they’re much much closer than anyone can be comfortable with. And they have been for some time.”

#8 It is just an unverified rumor at this stage, but an Iraqi journalist named Bassim Alhazradji is alleging that the United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel have decided to begin a bombing campaign within the next seven days

Iraqi journalist Bassim Alhazradji has made a startling claim that the United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel have reached a final agreement to launch a coordinated military strike against Iran. According to Alhazradji, the attack is expected to begin within the next seven days. While the journalist did not reveal the sources of his information, the statement has caused a ripple of speculation across regional media and political circles.

Alhazradji’s report has not been independently verified, and no official government has issued a statement confirming such a plan. However, rising tensions between Iran and the West, particularly following Tehran’s increasingly confrontational rhetoric and alleged nuclear advancements, lend a measure of plausibility to the claims. Analysts have also pointed to recent military drills conducted by the US Navy in the Persian Gulf, as well as reports of Israeli air force activity near Iranian airspace, as possible signs of an impending escalation.

Personally, I do not think that the bombing of Iran will start within the next seven days.

But if negotiations fail, it is coming soon.

Dr. Oz Hassan has told a British news source that any significant effort to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities would essentially be “the start of a major war”…

“A serious attempt to destroy Iran’s capabilities would require a large, complex military operation, involving stealth bombers, powerful bunker-busting bombs, and attacks on Iran’s air defences and military systems. This would look less like a quick raid and more like the start of a major war.”

And such an operation would also likely kill any chance of peace with the Russians.

In fact, a Russian spokesperson has said that any attempt to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities would “inevitably lead to an irreversible global catastrophe”

Maria Zakharova, from Russia’s foreign ministry, said: “The use of military force by Iran’s opponents in the context of the settlement is illegal and unacceptable.

“Threats from outside to bomb Iran’s nuclear infrastructure facilities will inevitably lead to an irreversible global catastrophe. These threats are simply unacceptable.”

We are so close to the unthinkable.

So let us hope that the Iranians are in a mood to compromise and that the negotiations that are scheduled for this weekend go well.

Because if negotiations with Iran fail, it appears that there will be all-out war in the Middle East.

Are You Ready To Pay A 104% Tariff On All Products From China?

How many products do you have in your home right now that were made in China?  If you are like most Americans, that number is very high.  We should have never allowed ourselves to become so dependent on cheap Chinese goods, but we did.  Walmart, Target and our dollar stores are absolutely teeming with products that were manufactured in China, and now those products are about to get much more expensive.  The 34 percent “retaliatory tariff” that the Trump administration recently imposed on the Chinese was on top of a 20 percent tariff that the Trump administration had already imposed on them.  The White House has confirmed this.  Unfortunately, the 54 percent tariff that we were potentially facing will now rise to 104 percent thanks to an additional 50 percent tariff that will go into effect on April 9th.  Earlier today, President Trump posted the following on his Truth Social account

Yesterday, China issued Retaliatory Tariffs of 34%, on top of their already record setting Tariffs, Non-Monetary Tariffs, Illegal Subsidization of companies, and massive long term Currency Manipulation, despite my warning that any country that Retaliates against the U.S. by issuing additional Tariffs, above and beyond their already existing long term Tariff abuse of our Nation, will be immediately met with new and substantially higher Tariffs, over and above those initially set. Therefore, if China does not withdraw its 34% increase above their already long term trading abuses by tomorrow, April 8th, 2025, the United States will impose ADDITIONAL Tariffs on China of 50%, effective April 9th. Additionally, all talks with China concerning their requested meetings with us will be terminated! Negotiations with other countries, which have also requested meetings, will begin taking place immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The math is very clear: 20 percent plus 34 percent plus 50 percent equals 104 percent.

No matter how the pundits try to spin this, the truth is that we will be paying this tariff if we continue to purchase Chinese products.

It is easy to say that we should just switch to products made in the U.S., but in thousands of cases there simply are not any similar products manufactured here.

And in thousands of other cases, products that are ultimately assembled in the U.S. depend on components that come from China.

Once again, we should have never allowed ourselves to get into this situation.

Trying to reverse course now is going to be a major league headache.  I asked Google AI to tell me some of the products that we get from China, and it produced quite an extensive list…

Consumer Electronics: China is a major source for smartphones, computers, video game consoles, and other electronic devices.

Toys and Games: A significant portion of the toys, games, and sporting goods imported into the U.S. come from China.

Furniture and Bedding: China is a major source for furniture, bedding, and other home goods.

Textiles and Clothing: China is a major source for textile products and clothing.

Machinery and Electrical Equipment: China is a major source for machinery, nuclear reactors, boilers, and electrical equipment

Other Products: China also supplies the U.S. with items like lithium-ion batteries, plastics, and miscellaneous manufactured goods.

Food: While a small percentage of the U.S. food supply comes from China, it is a major supplier for specific items like apple juice, garlic, canned mandarin oranges, fish, and shrimp.

At this point, a list of things that we don’t get from China might be shorter.

I am particularly concerned about what these tariffs will do to the pharmaceutical industry, because Google AI says that the vast majority of the active ingredients in our pharmaceutical drugs are imported from China…

While it’s difficult to pinpoint an exact percentage, a significant portion of raw materials for pharmaceutical drugs in the U.S. come from China, with estimates suggesting that around 80% of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are sourced from China and other countries like India.

We are in so much trouble.

Bill Ackman is warning that unless these tariffs are rolled back we are headed into a “self-induced economic nuclear winter”

Billionaire fund manager Bill Ackman, a staunch President Trump ally, has warned that the world is on the brink of “self-induced economic nuclear winter” as he begged the commander-in-chief to pause his sweeping tariffs.

“The President has an opportunity on Monday to call a time out and have the time to execute on fixing an unfair tariff system. Alternatively, we are heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter, and we should start hunkering down,” Ackman wrote in a lengthy X post Sunday night.

“May cooler heads prevail.”

Bill Ackman wouldn’t have become a billionaire if he wasn’t extremely sharp, and I agree with his assessment.

The outlook for the months ahead is extremely dismal.

In fact, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink is admitting that most CEOs that he talks to “would say we are probably in a recession right now”

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said that the stock market could see declines deepen by another 20% amid uncertainty over President Donald Trump’s tariffs and that CEOs are telling him they think the U.S. economy is likely already in a recession.

“Most CEOs I talk to would say we are probably in a recession right now,” Fink told the Economic Club of New York on Monday. Tariffs are expected to make a wide variety of products more expensive, exacerbating inflationary pressures that have been persistent in recent months.

As I discussed on Friday, our economic momentum has been taking us in the wrong direction for a long time.

And now these tariffs are going to introduce a tremendous amount of chaos into the equation.

As a result of the tariffs that were just imposed, Volkswagen is actually “holding 37,000 cars at US ports”

Volkswagen is holding 37,000 cars at US ports amid tariff turmoil.

Audi, the luxury arm of the world’s second largest global automaker, has confirmed it’s in a high-stakes holding pattern triggered by President Donald Trump’s 25 percent tariff on imported vehicles.

The affected cars arrived in the U.S. the same day Trump announced the sweeping levies. Now, they sit idle as VW considers its next move. Executives are thought to be hoping for either a presidential U-turn or a chance to negotiate a lower rate.

How long can they possibly hold these vehicles at our ports?

Of course the U.S. auto industry is going to be hit really hard as well

If President Trump’s trade war has a physical battleground, it is Michigan, where companies and workers are already feeling the beginning of an onslaught that could blow a hole in the state’s economy.

Nearly 20% of the economy is tied to the auto industry, which has become increasingly dependent on parts and vehicles from Canada, Mexico and China—imports Trump hit with steep tariffs in recent weeks. This trade has grown so large that Michigan ranks fifth in the nation by the size of its imports and exports, even though its total economy ranks 14th.

Even before the tariffs were announced, it was clear that a major slowdown was now upon us.

For example, the number of commercial bankruptcies in March 2025 was much higher than the number of commercial bankruptcies in March 2024…

More companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March than a year ago, indicating economic stress among U.S. businesses, according to the American Bankruptcy Institute (ABI).

“Commercial Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings increased 20 percent in March 2025, with filings climbing to 733 from the 611 filings registered in March 2024,” ABI said in an April 3 statement.

And during the first three months of this year, U.S. banks filed to close hundreds of local branches

Banks filed nearly 400 notices for the planned closures of some of their locations across the U.S. in the first three months of the year, according to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s (OCC) records.

Only some of these branches have already shut their doors. The closure of others has received approval from the OCC but has not yet been carried through by the bank, which may ultimately decide against it. Many are pending approval from the OCC, an independent federal agency which safeguards the U.S. banking system, making sure it remains accessible to underserved consumers and communities.

I have been warning that it was not going to take much to push the U.S. economy over the edge.

Unfortunately, we just got a really big shove.

We have been through so much economic pain over the past four years, and I know that a lot of people out there were quite eager for better times to arrive.

Sadly, what we are about to experience is not going to be pleasant at all.

Security Experts Urge Brits To Prepare Survival Kits Amid “Russian Threat”

Anonymous security experts have urged Britons to prepare 72-hour emergency survival kits amid a “Russia energy infrastructure threat” that Moscow has denied. The “experts” claim that Russia is looking to sabotage Britain’s energy pipelines, potentially leading to significant disruptions.

The prepared kit should include water, non-perishable food, medicines, a battery-powered radio, a flashlight, identity documents, and a Swiss Army knife.

“We know that the Russians are active in the North Sea and have the power to cripple our energy links. We need to become much more self-sufficient, and quickly. And households should be ready for all eventualities,” the source said.

The Daily Mail claimed that the fears about potential Russian sabotage also hinge on the fact it “was linked to a string of apparent sabotage incidents in the Baltic Sea” in recent months, but Western investigators have failed to find any proof of this being the case. Moscow has vehemently denied the speculation about its involvement, calling it “absurd.”

Putin Blames The U.S. For Nord Stream Sabotage

If Russia did decide to “sabotage” the United Kingdom’s energy infrastructure, wouldn’t they do so for longer than a three-day period? Why only 72 hours’ worth of provisions?

As the U.K. continues to pursue net-zero environmental targets, which have already led to the closure of coal-fired power stations, the country has become increasingly reliant on supplies of gas and electricity from abroad in order to “keep the lights on.”

Nearly 40 percent of the U.K.’s gas supply is imported from Norway, much of which comes through the single, 700-mile Langeled pipeline.

The protection of critical undersea infrastructure will form part of the Government’s Strategic Defence Review (SDR) by former Nato secretary-general Lord Robertson this year.

It comes after Moscow was linked to a string of apparent sabotage incidents in the Baltic Sea in the past two years, affecting cable and pipeline links. Germany‘s Nord Stream gas pipelines were also sabotaged in 2022.

Separately, the Russians are also believed to have placed listening devices on offshore UK wind turbines in an attempt to track the movement of British submarines. –Daily Mail

According to a report by RT, Moscow has dismissed speculation it could sabotage Western energy infrastructure

76 Trillion Gallons Of Water Is Expected To Fall On The U.S. During Yet Another “Once In A Generation” Storm. This Is Perfectly Normal.

Four months of rain is about to fall in five days in some areas in the middle of the country. We are being told that an atmospheric river will produce a “firehose of moisture” that is expected to dump 76 trillion gallons of water on the heartland of America over the next week.  This is perfectly normal, or so they keep telling us.  Western Kentucky, parts of Missouri, northwestern Tennessee, much of Arkansas, southern Indiana and southern Illinois are supposed to get hit the hardest.  Overall, 32 million people currently live in areas where a flood watch is now in effect.

So much rainfall is coming that USA Today is joking that it may be time “to build an ark”

Time to build an ark?

“Generational” rainfall amounts are forecast to fall across portions of the central U.S. from Wednesday to Saturday, resulting in historic and life-threatening flooding across the region, the National Weather Service in Memphis said.

Over the past couple of years, it seems like we have had “historic and life-threatening flooding” every few weeks.

This is normal.

And the fact that four months of rain is about to fall in just five days is normal too…

According to AccuWeather, up to four months’ worth of rain will fall in five days along portions of a 1,000-mile-long swath from Texas to Ohio.

“People who have lived in a community their entire lives may see water rapidly rising and flooding areas they have never seen flood before,” AccuWeather chief meteorologist Jonathan Porter said. “Do not assume that if you have not seen flooding in an area before, that it will not occur this time.”

Nothing to see here.

Move along.

Once upon a time we would have gotten worked up over something like this, but for the past two years the United States has been averaging a “billion dollar disaster” about once every two weeks.

So it is extremely normal that we are about to witness a rainfall event that “has a return interval of anywhere from 25 to 100 years”

“The forecast heavy rainfall in this event has a return interval of anywhere from 25 to 100 years. In other words, a heavy rainfall event of this magnitude falling within 4 days is an event that happens once in a generation to once in a lifetime,” said the weather service office in Newark, Arkansas. “Historic rainfall totals and impacts are possible.”

Oh, and all of this rainfall is going to produce horrific flooding.

An Accuweather spokesperson actually told Newsweek “that floods like this have a 0.1 percent chance of happening in any given year”.

That is so incredibly normal.

This storm is also expected to spawn a bunch of tornadoes.  In fact, quite a few tornado watches have already been issued

Tornado watches were active Wednesday across multiple states, including Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri and Illinois, according to the National Weather Service. By the afternoon, severe weather was being felt across the middle of the country, with hundreds of flight delays, tens of thousands of power outages and crews examining damage from possible tornadoes.

Of course it was just less than a month ago that a “mega storm” suddenly spawned more than 70 tornadoes in that same part of the country…

This newest tornado threat comes less than three weeks after a ‘mega storm’ ripped through this same part of the US in March.

Over 40 people died due to the extreme weather event, which dropped more than 70 tornadoes on communities throughout the South and Midwest.

Exceptionally normal.

After all, they call it “tornado alley” for a reason, right?

Generational storms, epic tornado outbreaks and historic flooding events are all a normal part of life in America now.  So the storm that we are about to witness is no big deal

“Should the amount of rain occur that we anticipate over the middle of the nation, it would exceed the 500 to 1,000-year average,” Clark said, “Truly, the potential is there for a historic flash flooding event.”

People living along or traveling on roads near small streams in hilly terrain should be especially vigilant for rapidly rising water that can sweep vehicles and homes away.

Interestingly, Greece was also just hit by historic flooding.  in their case, the floodwaters were so powerful that they literally “swept vehicles away”

Several Greek holiday islands have been devastated by floods after severe rainstorms turned roads into raging rivers and swept vehicles away.

Two of Greece’s most popular tourist destinations, Paros and Mykonos, have been left submerged in murky waters after what has been described as ‘biblical disaster’ rainfall lashed through the islands on Monday.

Dark skies loomed overhead and heavy rain quickly turned the streets into torrents, with footage showing cars being swept away in the deluge.

So normal.

We are also being told that it is completely normal that the core of our planet is now “rotating in reverse”

Buried more than 3,000 miles beneath our feet, Earth’s solid inner core was once thought to be unchanging—locked in place at the heart of the planet. But new research has revealed something much more dynamic. According to a recent study published in Nature Geoscience, Earth’s inner core has not only slowed down, it now appears to be rotating in reverse compared to the planet’s surface.

Scientists are telling us that this must be part of a long-term cycle, because there is no way that this is not normal.

Elsewhere, other scientists have discovered that the continent of North America is literally “dripping” down into the Earth’s mantle

An ancient slab of Earth’s crust buried deep beneath the Midwest is sucking huge swatches of present-day’s North American crust down into the mantle, researchers say.

The slab’s pull has created giant “drips” that hang from the underside of the continent down to about 400 miles (640 kilometers) deep inside the mantle, according to a new study. These drips are located beneath an area spanning from Michigan to Nebraska and Alabama, but their presence appears to be impacting the entire continent.

The dripping area looks like a large funnel, with rocks from across North America being pulled toward it horizontally before getting sucked down. As a result, large parts of North America are losing material from the underside of their crust, the researchers said.

Wow, I had no idea that large portions of North America were being sucked down into the Earth’s mantle.

I can’t even think of anything more normal than that.

I wonder how that will affect the deep geological scar that currently exists directly under the New Madrid Seismic Zone.

Perhaps someone should look into that.

Meanwhile, the rest of us will just continue to pretend that everything is going to be just fine.

Five Survival Skills You Need Before Spring Hits—Are You Ready?

Spring is the perfect time to sharpen your survival skills. Why? The weather is mild, which makes outdoor practice more comfortable and more enjoyable. Plus, the longer days also give you more time to train. Meanwhile, nature’s fresh resources provide plenty of opportunities to test your abilities. If you want to build self-reliance, now is the time to get started. Here are five survival skills that will help you thrive in the wild.

Five Survival Skills to Keep You Safe This Spring Season!

The world is waking up from winter’s grip, but so are its dangers: wild weather, unpredictable terrain, and unexpected situations. That’s why you need these five survival skills locked in before spring gets into full swing. Let’s get into what you need to know before the season shifts.

1. Fire-Starting: A Skill You Can’t Ignore

Fire is one of the most important survival tools. It provides warmth, cooks food, and helps purify water. In an emergency, you can even use it as a lifesaving signal for rescue. However, starting a fire in the wild isn’t as easy as striking a match. Wind, damp wood, and unexpected weather conditions can make it difficult. That’s why regular practice is essential to master this survival skill.

Start by experimenting with different fire-starting methods. Try a ferro rod, flint, steel or bow drill to see which works best in your environment. Additionally, dry tinder is a key fire-starting factor so practice gathering birch bark, pine needles, or dry grass. If the ground is wet, look for dry twigs on trees instead of picking up wood from the forest floor.

Once you master the basics, challenge yourself to make fire under tougher conditions. Try lighting one after rain or in strong winds and practice using only one match. If you can start a fire in bad weather, you can do it when the real emergency situation happens.

2. Navigating Without Technology

While GPS is convenient, it also poses major risks. Devices break, batteries die, and signals fail. Without a backup plan to get directions, you could find yourself stranded. That’s why learning traditional navigation skills is a must.

Start with a map and compass. You can also study topographic maps to understand elevation, landmarks, and water sources. Moreover, practice setting a bearing and following it in the woods. If you get off course, use backtracking techniques to find your way back.

When a compass or GPS fails, natural navigation becomes a necessary survival skill. Observing the sun’s movement helps since it rises in the east and sets in the west. At night, finding the North Star is a great guide because it stays fixed while other stars shift. During the day, moss growth can indicate direction, as the plant often appears more on the north side of trees in damp forests. However, it’s not always reliable since sunlight, moisture, and tree type affect its growth.

3. Tracking and Animal Signs: Read Nature Like a Book

Spring is the best season to study animal tracks as wildlife tends to be more active and leave clear signs behind. Learning how to read these signs improves awareness and helps you locate food and avoid danger.

Start by looking for fresh mud, sand, or soft dirt tracks. Then study the shape, size, and depth of each print. Different animals leave unique tracks, so use a guide to identify them. Also, note their movement patterns. A straight path often means an animal is traveling while zig-zag patterns suggest it’s searching for food.

Besides footprints, pay attention to other signs. Broken branches, fur on tree bark, and disturbed soil serve as clues. Scat (animal droppings) can also reveal the animal’s diet and recent activity. If you follow these signs carefully, you can determine an animal’s size, direction, and behavior.

4. Knot-Tying: Secure, Build, and Survive

Knots are essential for survival. They help secure shelters, set traps, and fasten gear. Without strong knots, your setup may fail when it matters most.

Start with three essential knots. The bowline creates a secure loop that won’t slip. The clove hitch is useful for attaching ropes to trees or poles. The trucker’s hitch lets you tighten a rope with ease.

Once you master knot-tying, keep increasing the difficulty. Try tying them one-handed or in the dark. Test their strength by putting weight on them. Remember, a well-tied knot should hold firm under stress. If it slips, retie it until secure. The goal is to make knot-tying second nature, so you’ll be ready out there in the wild.

5. Foraging for Wild Edible Plants: Find Food in Nature

Knowing how to find food in the wild is a great survival skill. Spring brings new plant growth, making it the best time to learn. However, eating the wrong plant can be dangerous, that’s why we need to identify them properly.

Start with easy-to-recognize plants like dandelions, wild onions, and chickweed. Learn which parts are edible and how to prepare them. Some plants can be eaten raw, while others need cooking to remove toxins.

Always verify plants before eating them, as some toxic plants look similar to safe ones. For example, poison hemlock resembles wild carrots but has purple blotches on its stem and an unpleasant smell. Use a field guide or a foraging app to confirm identification.

To build confidence, practice foraging in your area. Identify a few safe plants and learn how to prepare them. The more you know, the safer you’ll be if you ever need to rely on wild food.

Train Now, Survive Later

Spring offers the best conditions for survival training. The weather is mild, the days are longer, and nature is full of resources. Practicing fire-starting, navigation, tracking, knot-tying, and foraging will prepare you for any outdoor challenge.

The key to success is consistent practice. Push yourself by testing these five survival skills in different environments and weather conditions. When real survival situations arise, you’ll be ready!

10 Short FAQs on Practicing Five Survival Skills in Spring
  1. How does the sun help with navigation?
    The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, providing a basic directional guide.
  2. Why is the North Star useful for navigation?
    It stays fixed in the sky, always pointing north, while other stars move.
  3. Can moss accurately show direction?
    Sometimes, but it’s unreliable since sunlight, moisture, and tree type affect its growth.
  4. How can shadows help determine direction?
    Stick shadows move west to east, showing where the sun is in the sky.
  5. What’s the easiest way to find the North Star?
    Locate the Big Dipper; the two outer stars of its bowl point to it.

German Politicians Worry About Their Gold In US Vaults

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. 

For decades, the idea that Germany’s gold reserves—some of the largest in the world—might not be safe in the vaults of the New York Federal Reserve would have seemed like the stuff of conspiracy theories. But as the political landscape shifts in Washington—and questions have been raised about what’s actually in US vaults —some German lawmakers are beginning to wonder aloud: Is their gold still secure?

Germany holds the second-largest hoard of gold on the planet, surpassed only by the United States itself. Roughly 37 percent of that treasure – some 1,236 metric tons, currently valued at around €113 billion – supposedly lies deep beneath the streets of Manhattan, stored with America’s central bank. For decades, the arrangement was seen as a prudent hedge, offering Germany immediate access to dollar liquidity in the event of a crisis.

Now, some in Berlin are rethinking that assumption.

Of course, the question now arises again,” Marco Wanderwitz, an outgoing lawmaker from the center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), told the German tabloid Bild (owned by POLITICO’s parent company, Axel Springer) last week. Wanderwitz has long harbored doubts about the wisdom of keeping such a significant portion of the country’s wealth abroad. In 2012, he made an unsuccessful push to personally inspect the gold, urging the Bundesbank to act more transparently – or bring the bullion home.

Fellow CDU member Markus Ferber, a member of the European Parliament, echoed those sentiments, calling for more rigorous oversight. “Official representatives of the Bundesbank must personally count the bars and document their results,” Ferber told the outlet.

These calls come at a time of deepening skepticism toward the institutions that once underpinned Germany’s postwar confidence. The recent decision to discard the so-called “debt brake,” a long-sacrosanct cap on public borrowing, signaled a willingness to rethink long-standing fiscal orthodoxy. The logic behind storing Germany’s gold in New York, once assumed to be self-evident, is now coming under similar scrutiny.

Adding to the speculation is Elon Musk and DOGE, who have questioned the authenticity of stated U.S. gold holdings – recently calling for a formal audit of America’s reserves.

For the Deutsche Bundesbank, which oversees the management of Germany’s reserves, any suggestion of instability is unwelcome. The central bank has maintained a quiet and resolute stance, rebuffing insinuations of risk.

We have a trustworthy and reliable partner in the Fed in New York for the storage of our gold holdings,” Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel said at a press conference in February, a line the bank reiterated when asked for comment on Friday. “It does not keep me awake at night. I have complete confidence in our colleagues at the American central bank.

Famous last words…

In 2013, amid a populist outcry and growing eurozone instability, the ‘completely confident’ Bundesbank repatriated hundreds of tons of gold previously held in Paris – a move that was seen at the time as a symbolic reassertion of sovereignty. The bank argued that, with France and Germany sharing the euro, the strategic rationale for keeping reserves in Paris had faded.

Now, more than half of Germany’s gold sits safely in Frankfurt. Thirteen percent is held in London. But it is the tranche in New York – once a monument to transatlantic trust – that is drawing the most anxious of glances.

One question… GOT GOLD?

Bill Gates Says AI Will Eliminate Most Jobs Except For Coders, Energy Experts, And Biologists

This article was originally published by Rhoda Wilson at The Exposé.

Doctors, teachers, farmers, and many others who are going along with the Globalists’ agenda will soon learn what the agenda has in store for them.

Bill Gates has “predicted” that over the next decade, advances in artificial intelligence (“AI”) will mean that humans will no longer be needed “for most things” in the world.  He singled out three occupations that AI will not be able to replace: coders, energy experts, and biologists.

On Wednesday, CNBC reported that Bill Gates has “predicted” that within the next 10 years, advancements in artificial intelligence (“AI”) will significantly reduce the need for human involvement in many tasks, including those of doctors, teachers, and people who are “growing food.” He made the remarks during an interview with Jimmy Fallon last month.

The Tonight Show: Bill Gates Joked with Steve Jobs About Taking the Wrong LSD, Talks AI and Optimism for the Future, 5 February 2025 (10 mins)

The full interview from which the clip above was taken is unavailable in the UK. However, Indian news outlets are reporting more details.  According to Business Standard, during the interview, Gates identified only three occupations that are likely to remain safe from a hostile AI takeover: coders, energy experts and biologists.

See also:

Gates believes coders are necessary because while AI can generate code, it makes errors that only human programmers can correct. So, coders are needed to refine, debug and advance AI itself.  But for how long will coders be useful?

Interestingly, writing for Windows Central earlier this week, Kevin Okemwa said, “Over the past few months, I’ve covered multiple reports suggesting that coding might be dead in the water with the rapid prevalence of AI.  NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang discouraged the youth from exploring a career path in software engineering, suggesting they might have better luck in biology, education, manufacturing or farming.”

As for “energy experts,” Gates claims the complexity of managing power grids and critical infrastructure requires human oversight for safety and strategic decisions.  Again, for how long? Because when the energy required to supply the Globalists’ control system is in place, will “energy experts” be required?

The strategic decision Gates refers to is not for our benefit, it is part of an agenda to monitor and control everything and everyone.  Together with the Internet of Things (“IoT”) and other technologies, AI is part of the Fourth Industrial Revolutionaccording to the World Economic Forum (“WEF”).

The IoT consists of sensors and intelligence added to physical objects such as mobile phones, wearables, driverless cars, waste management, objects on city streets, in homes and hospitals; any object or location (e.g. a city or factory) prefixed by the word “smart,” which collects and shares data across the internet, is part of the IoT.

“By 2025, 41.6 billion devices will be capturing data on how we live, work, move through our cities and operate and maintain the machines on which we depend,” WEF predicted in 2021.

AI will be used to monitor and control all the IoT data. And the IoT isn’t the only ambition they have.  There are similar plans for the Internet of Bodies (“IoB”), also known as the Internet of Living Things (“IoLT”), the Internet of Underwater Things (“IoUT”), Industrial Internet of Things (“IIoT”) and the Internet of Everything (“IoE”), as well as digital twinsdigital IDs and central bank digital currencies (“CBDCs”) or cryptocurrencies.

AI requires an enormous amount of energy. The more AI is used, the more energy the system will require.

The third group whose jobs Gates deems worthy of saving are biologists. Gates “predicts” that biologists will remain essential in the face of AI advancements due to their unique skills in scientific discovery and critical thinking.

While AI can process vast datasets and aid in disease diagnosis, it lacks the ability to formulate groundbreaking hypotheses or make intuitive leaps in research.  AI has yet to master creativity, intuition and critical thinking – Gates is foolish if he thinks it ever will.  Nevertheless, apparently, out of all the many roles people fulfil in the world, biologists are the only ones, according to Gates, who rely on these human qualities.

Importantly to Gates, these qualities are essential for pushing the boundaries of medical research and understanding life’s complexities. While AI excels in processing data and identifying patterns, so it is claimed, it cannot independently generate novel ideas or challenge conventional knowledge.  Medical advancements often require years of trial and error, ethical considerations, and an in-depth understanding of human biology, which AI cannot fully replicate.

They may attempt to promote their agenda to the public as being “for our own good,” but in reality, it is anything but that. While we do not know the exact or full purpose for which Gates intends to use biologists, we can make some educated guesses. As we have learnt during the covid era, none of them are good. See our previous articles below for some ideas Gates may be harbouring:

If biologists have the creativity, intuition and critical thinking Gates aims to use to further his agenda, then they will know that when their usefulness to Gates comes to an end, they will share the same fate as doctors, farmers and teachers.

If Everything Is Going To Be Okay, Why Are The U.S. And The EU Feverishly Preparing For World War III?

If there is going to be peace in the Middle East, why has the Pentagon sent 25 percent of our entire fleet of B-2 stealth bombers to the region? And if there is going to be peace in Europe, why is the European Union telling all of their citizens to store up food and water for a war with Russia?  We keep being told that everything is going to be okay, but meanwhile western officials continue to make moves that indicate that more war is coming.

According to Newsweek, the United States has “significantly increased its military presence” in the Middle East during the past couple of weeks…

The U.S. has significantly increased its military presence in both the Gulf and Indian Ocean, deploying B-2 stealth bombers, cargo planes, and aerial refueling tankers, alongside key assets like the USS Carl Vinson and USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carriers.

I am particularly concerned about the deployment of highly advanced B-2 stealth bombers to the region.

It is being reported that “at least five” B-2 stealth bombers have been deployed to the island of Diego Garcia…

The US military has sent at least five B-2 Spirit stealth bombers to highly strategic island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean.

These heavy bombers can obliterate targets with their huge 25 tonne bomb payload per jet.

This means the US’s deadly fleet of five could carry an astounding 125 tonnes of bombs.

For those that do not know, Afghanistan was relentlessly bombed by U.S. air assets based in Diego Garcia during the invasion of that nation in 2001, and Iraq was relentlessly bombed by U.S. air assets based in Diego Garcia during the invasion of that nation in 2003.

Currently, the U.S. only possesses 20 B-2 stealth bombers, and so that means that 25 percent of them are now in Diego Garcia.

It is being speculated that these B-2 bombers could be involved in the ongoing campaign to bomb the Houthis in Yemen, but it is important to note that these B-2 bombers would also be ideal for carrying out the sort of “bunker buster” strikes that would be necessary to take out Iran’s nuclear program…

The bombers present a unique mix of capabilities, particularly their ability to penetrate past dense enemy air defenses to carry out ‘bunker buster’ strikes employing 30,000-pound class GBU-57/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bombs. MOP, which only the B-2 is currently certified to employ operationally, itself offers a unique conventional option for striking deeply buried and fortified targets, of which there are many in Iran.

We do know that President Trump recently delivered a letter to the Iranians that gives them a choice with a very clear deadline.

Either the Iranians must make an agreement to end their nuclear program within two months or they will be attacked

Recently, President Trump revealed that he had sent a letter to Tehran, demanding a new nuclear agreement within two months or face significant military consequences. With negotiations stalled and the deadline looming, the diplomatic window for de-escalation is quickly closing, leaving military action as an increasingly likely outcome.

The Iranians have already told us that they have no plans to negotiate.

So it appears that it is just a matter of time before the second option is implemented.

In a recent interview with “Face the Nation”, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz made it clear that there will be no compromises

“Iran has to give up its program in a way that the entire world can see,” Mike Waltz, Trump’s National Security Advisor, said during a separate interview on CBS News‘ “Face the Nation” this weekend. “It is time for Iran to walk away completely from its desire to have a nuclear weapon, and they will not and cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapons program. That is its weaponization and its strategic missiles program.”

If B-2 stealth bombers start hitting Iran’s nuclear facilities, we will officially be at war with Iran.

I hope that everyone understands the implications of that.

Meanwhile, the European Union is “pushing for every household in the 27-nation bloc” to prepare an emergency kit in case a direct war with Russia breaks out…

European Union bureaucrats are pushing for every household in the 27-nation bloc to prepare the kit for war and natural disasters.

It is expected that will be part of a union’s broader “preparedness strategy” amid the threat from Russia.

Key items they will ask the bloc’s 450 million citizens to gather includes water, energy bars and a flashlight.

Why does every home in the EU need to prepare for war with Russia if there is going to be peace?

Do EU bureaucrats know something that the rest of us do not?

Sadly, it appears that even the very limited agreements that Russia and Ukraine just agreed to are not going to hold.  The Ukrainians just launched more strikes against Russian energy infrastructure, and the Russians just keep sending waves of drone attacks at Ukrainian cities

Overnight, Russia said it had taken down nine drones, including two over the Black Sea. It also said Ukraine tried to attack a gas storage facility in Russian-occupied Crimea and energy infrastructure in Russia’s Kursk and Bryansk regions. Ukraine said it conducted no such strikes.

Ukraine’s military reported 117 Russian drone attacks overnight. Local officials said the city of Kryvyi Rih had been hit by the biggest drone attack it has faced yet.

Hopefully both sides will come to their senses, because this is our one shot at peace.

If negotiations ultimately fail, it is inevitable that both sides will escalate matters, and NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte is warning that an attack on Poland or any other NATO member “will be met with the full force of this fierce alliance”

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte issued a stern warning to Vladimir Putin, stating that any attack on Poland or another NATO member would be met with a “devastating” response.

“If anyone were to miscalculate and think they can get away with an attack on Poland or on any other ally, they will be met with the full force of this fierce alliance. Our reaction will be devastating” he declared in Warsaw. “This has to be very clear to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and anyone else who wants to attack us.”

Those are unusually strong words.

Is he expecting something to happen?

Ominously, we are being told that four U.S. soldiers were just found dead near Lithuania’s border with Belarus

Four US soldiers have reportedly been found dead in Lithuania after going missing during a training mission. A major search operation was launched after the tracked vehicle they were travelling in disappeared at around 4.45pm yesterday.

The Embassy in Vilnius has yet to confirm the deaths after releasing a statement to confirm only that four soldiers were missing. But speaking to reporters while visiting Warsaw, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said: “Whilst I was speaking the news came out about four American soldiers who were killed in an incident in Lithuania,” as he confirmed he had no further details. The search, involving Lithuanian and US assets, has identified a “possible location” of where they are believed to have disappeared.

This is a very alarming incident.

Hopefully we will learn more details shortly.

There is one last thing that I wanted to mention today.  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy just told European journalists that Russian President Vladimir Putin “will die soon”

Volodymyr Zelensky has predicted that Russian President Vladimir Putin ‘will die soon’ in a candid assessment as he discussed the war on Ukraine. Speaking during a round table with journalists including the BBC’s Jeremy Bowen, the Ukrainian leader said: “He will die soon, and that’s a fact, and it will come to an end.”

What an irresponsible thing to say.

Yes, Putin has been experiencing health problems for a long time.

But if Putin does die soon, the Russians will remember what Zelenskyy just said.  At that point it would be exceedingly difficult to convince the Russians that nothing nefarious was going on, and getting both sides to agree to any sort of a peace deal would almost certainly become impossible.

We are at such a delicate moment.

The decisions that global leaders make over the next several months could dramatically alter the course of human history, and right now I am not particularly optimistic about where things are heading.

An Internal Revolution Started By The Communists

Everyone knew that there would be violence once Donald Trump returned to the White House.  He has been the most demonized man in America for the past eight years, and there are a lot of people out there that have deeply internalized the propaganda that has been relentlessly pounded into their heads.  At this point, there is no president in the entire history of our country that the left hates more than Donald Trump.  Just the mere thought of him can provoke uncontrollable rage in many leftists.  So it was inevitable that there would be violence, and I am entirely convinced that what we have experienced so far is just the beginning of a tsunami of civil disorder.

During the past couple of months, Tesla vehicles and Tesla dealerships have become favorite targets for those that absolutely hate the changes that Donald Trump and Elon Musk have been making to the federal government.  The following summary of attacks was put together by Connor O’Keeffe

In recent weeks, there has been a sharp increase in violent attacks aimed at destroying cars and other property carrying the logo of Elon Musk’s electric car company, Tesla.

In Colorado, a woman was charged with using Molotov cocktails to set multiple cars at a Tesla dealership on fire before painting the word Nazi on a store sign. In Oregon, one man fired a rifle into one Tesla dealership while someone else fired shots and threw explosives into another. In Washington, four Tesla Cybertrucks were set on fire, a Tesla sedan was covered in gasoline and set ablaze on a city street, and various other Cybertrucks had swastikas painted on them.

Seven Tesla charging stations were burned in Massachusetts, two Teslas were set on fire in Texas, several Teslas were shot and lit on fire in Nevada, and much more. As recently as Monday, multiple firebombs were discovered in a Tesla dealership in Austin, Texas. It’s clear that these are, at the very least, copycat acts aimed at Elon Musk and anyone who owns or is interested in buying a car from his company.

We have seen attacks happen over and over again, and a number of the perpetrators have been arrested.

Needless to say, it isn’t moderate Democrats that are committing these acts of violence.

In almost every case, the ideology of those that have been arrested is on the far left of the political spectrum.

In fact, a 36-year-old man that has been charged with a series of attacks in Las Vegas is being described as a “potential communist”

An alleged ‘Communist’ has been arrested in Las Vegas for setting several Tesla cars on fire using Molotov cocktails before firing rounds into the burning vehicles on March 18.

Paul Hyon Kim, 36, was charged on Wednesday with 15 offenses, including arson and destroying or injuring personal property valued at $5,000 or more, police told a press conference the following day.

Las Vegas Metro Police also said Kim’s social media indicated that he was a ‘potential Communist’ with ‘pro Palestine affiliations’, according to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin.

Even before the election, many on the far left were openly talking about the need for a “revolution” if Trump won.

Now that Trump is back in the Oval Office, the chatter about a “revolution” on social media has only intensified.

Most conservatives have no idea how serious there people are about their plans.

Of course many on the far left don’t use the term “communist” anymore.  Instead they will refer to themselves as “socialists”, “anarchists”, “revolutionaries” or “progressives”.

But at the end of the day, their ideology is pretty much indistinguishable from the ideology of other communist movements all over the globe.

Many conservatives are downplaying the threat of far left violence, and I believe that is a huge mistake.

Yes, there have been some incidents that have been quite funny.  For example, one radical leftist that attempted to ram his four-wheeler into the side of a Cybertruck should have known that it wouldn’t do any damage at all.  The following comes from a humorous piece that was posted on Zero Hedge

We present readers with what may be one of the dumbest, most brainwashed, unhealthiest, lowest IQ, and unhinged Democrat yet—a morbidly obsessed activist who slammed his ATV into the driver’s side of a Tesla Cybertruck, an incident likely linked to radical far-left political grievances captured by the vehicle’s Sentry Mode security cameras.

Tesla investor Sawyer Merritt wrote on X, “This guy was arrested today after ramming his mini four-wheeler into a Cybertruck,” adding, “Little did he know that the Cybertruck has 1.8mm bulletproof stainless-steel doors capable of taking some heavy hits. He was charged with one count of felony criminal mischief & failure to identify.”

Apparently this particular individual vandalized a number of Tesla vehicles, and Texarkana police reported on Facebook that they now have him in custody…

We arrested 33 year old Demarqeyun Cox this afternoon after he allegedly damaged multiple Tesla vehicles in separate incidents across the city today.

The first report came from the Golden Palace restaurant on Summerhill Road, where surveillance footage from the car itself captured a guy on a mini four-wheeler intentionally ramming a parked Tesla at full speed. While officers were searching for the suspect, another call came in reporting damage to a Tesla in the Lowe’s parking lot.

Shortly after that, Officer Blake Lummus spotted Cox riding a mini four-wheeler near Summerhill and New Boston Roads and recognized him as the suspect in the earlier video. After being stopped, Cox initially gave a false name but was quickly identified and taken into custody.

That is great news.

But there are thousands of others just like him.

And in this environment, Elon Musk is not the only billionaire that is being targeted.

A “Robin Hood mentality” is starting to take hold in America, and there are apparently many leftists that are convinced that it is okay to shoplift from Whole Foods because it is owned by Jeff Bezos

Take Jesse, a 30-something tech worker who until recently would steal entire bags of groceries from Whole Foods with his roommates. A friend at Instacart tipped them off to the opportunity — with so many personal shoppers roaming around the aisles, workers weren’t going to notice another person loading bags or whether they were paying for what was in them. Once, they got expensive steaks from the butcher and left without paying for them, later grilling them out on a friend’s roof.

“I never felt bad for the corporation as a whole, because it was Amazon and, you know, it was Jeff Bezos,” Jesse said. “He just profits so much taking advantage of the little people, so if we as little people can bite back a little bit, and that’s me taking $100 maybe out of revenue for him, that’s a little bit of a middle finger.”

Separately, there’s Carson, another Whole Foods bandit whose friends joke they’re actually “liberating” items from the store, not stealing. As Carson, a 30-something who works in the nonprofit sector, told me for a story last year, he likes slipping salmon lox into his laptop sleeve and estimates he saves about $1,000 in groceries a year by shoplifting, largely from Whole Foods.

Stealing something that does not belong to you is always wrong.

It doesn’t matter if it is owned by a billionaire or by a homeless person.

Unfortunately, so many leftists in our society now believe that morality is relative.

They have created an entirely alternate reality for themselves where it is okay to lie, cheat, steal and firebomb Tesla dealerships.

And in this alternate reality, Donald Trump is literally the devil.

Since Trump is literally the personification of evil in their minds, they desperately want Democrats in Washington “to be much more aggressive” with Trump…

Mike Arnold, a 74-year-old Air Force veteran from Cathedral City, California, said he attended a Khanna event in Norco this past weekend, because he “got tired of screaming at the TV.”

Like Siegel, he said he isn’t sure the country will make it to Democratic elections in 2026. Trump, he said, is advancing an authoritarian agenda — bullying white-shoe law firms and universities and calling for the impeachment of judges who rule against him.

“The courts might not hold, and if the courts don’t hold, the only next thing is the military itself,” said Arnold. Democratic leaders, Arnold said, “have to be much more aggressive than they have been.”

During the weeks and months ahead, I certainly expect the left to get “much more aggressive”, and that will not be good for any of us.

In a civilized society, there is no room for political violence.

Unfortunately, we are not a civilized society any longer.

An internal revolution has already begun, and it will grow every time Donald Trump makes another major move that the left does not like.

Sadly, most people on the left and the right have no idea where all of this civil disorder will eventually take us.
