For men, carrying a concealed firearm doesn’t present many problems. The most popular method of concealed carry for most men is an inside-the-waistband holster. While this works great when wearing trousers, most women’s fashions don’t lend themselves very well to a waistband holster for concealed carry. However, there are many other options a woman can…

By now, you have probably heard of a very strange phenomenon that has been taking the Internet by storm in recent days. Large groups of animals, insects and birds have been spotted walking in circles all over the planet, and there is lots of speculation about why this is happening. Some of the potential explanations that have been suggested are blaming this strange behavior on disease, changes in the magnetic field of the Earth, spoiled feed, parasitic brain worms, experiments at CERN, a coming pole shift or spikes in electromagnetic radiation. Personally, I don’t know what to think. Something really weird does seem to be happening, and hopefully we will get some more answers in the coming days.
In early November, a group of sheep in northern China began walking in circles over and over again.
This went on for nearly two weeks, and footage of this behavior has spread very rapidly on various social media platforms…
Bizarre video footage captured on a Chinese farm shows a group of sheep walking in circles for almost two weeks without stopping. The strange behavior has observers—and the sheep’s owner—utterly perplexed as they try to determine what’s behind it. The footage was taken earlier this month in northern China.
A closed-circuit camera on a local farm caught hundreds of sheep walking in a clockwise motion inside their pen. Not all of the animals joined in at first, watching the action from the center of the flock before falling in line with the rest of the herd.
Even our large corporate media outlets have been talking about the sheep in China, but in many cases they have decided that it is something to laugh about.
Hopefully there is a very simple explanation for why the sheep were circling for such a long period of time.
According to one expert that was interviewed by Newsweek, this could simply be a case where the sheep became extremely frustrated because they were penned up for so long…
A potential explanation has been shared by Matt Bell, a professor and director at the Department of Agriculture at Hartpury University, in Gloucester, England.
“It looks like the sheep are in the pen for long periods, and this might lead to stereotypic behavior, with the repeated circling due to frustration about being in the pen and limited [as to where they can go]. This is not good. Then the other sheep join as they are flock animals and bond or join their friends,” Bell told Newsweek.
Maybe Bell is correct.
But why are so many other animals, insects and birds also walking in circles all over the planet?
What we are witnessing is not just limited to one group of sheep in northern China.
This appears to be something that is happening all over the world, and so we need an explanation that can account for that.
I did find an article that blamed the fact that some pigeons in the UK have been circling like “zombie-like creatures” on a certain viral disease…
A viral disease has turned pigeons in the UK into zombie-like creatures – causing them to develop twisted necks and walk around in circles, animal experts said.
This disease is known as “pigeon paramyxovirus”, and we are being told that it “can affect pigeons, doves and poultry”…
“There has been an increase in the number of grounded pigeons coming into the JSPCA Animals’ Shelter in the last few weeks, many of which have been showing neurological signs such as twisted neck, circling or are unable to stand,” said the animal rescue service based in St. Helier, Jersey.
It said the disease appears to be pigeon paramyxovirus, which is described as “an invariably fatal viral disease that can affect pigeons, doves and poultry.”
So this may be an explanation for why a lot of birds have been walking around in circles, but it would not explain why so many sheep, chickens and insects have been affected.
What we need is a theory that can account for everything that we have been witnessing.
Below, I have shared a number of videos that supposedly document this phenomenon. As you can see, there certainly appears to be a lot of footage out there…

I really wish that I could tell you why this is happening.
But I can’t.
Perhaps all of this is much ado about nothing.
Let’s watch and see if this unexplained behavior continues.
Without a doubt, we live in very weird times, and I believe that they will soon get a whole lot weirder.
Truth is stranger than fiction, and I believe that we will see things happen in the years ahead that will go way beyond anything that any of our science fiction authors ever dreamed up.
So if you think that things are crazy now, just wait, because it won’t be too long before events on this planet start getting really bizarre.

The European Union is stockpiling Russian diesel fuel before the ban on Russian oil begins. The oil-products embargo begins in less than three months and the EU lacks alternative sources of fuel.
Russian diesel shipments headed to the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) storage region surged to 215,000 barrels per day from November 1 to November 12. It is a 126% increase from October, according to Pamela Munger, Vortexa senior market analyst. This means, that in order to prepare themselves for the ban they instituted, they are stockpiling the very thing they insisted on banning.
European traders are boosting purchases of Russian diesel ahead of the EU embargo on the country’s oil products, which comes into force in February, Reuters reported on Monday, citing cargo tracker Vortexa.
According to Refinitiv data, and as reported by RT, so far in November Russian diesel made up 44% of the bloc’s imports of the fuel, against 39% last month. This means that Russia remains the region’s largest diesel supplier, despite the fact that overall imports of Russian fuels to the EU dropped significantly over the past months due to Ukraine-related sanctions.
The EU embargo on Russian oil comes into force next month, while the ban on petroleum products will take effect on February 5. Analysts warn it will be difficult for the region to find alternative sources for diesel once this happens, as they are scarce and more costly, while Europe’s domestic diesel production falls short of the region’s consumption. –RT
“The EU will have to secure around 500,000 to 600,000 barrels per day of diesel to replace the Russian volumes; replacements will come from the US as well as east of Suez, primarily the Middle East and India,” Eugene Lindell, market analyst at energy consultancy FGE, told Reuters.
The EU is facing a major diesel fuel crisis thanks to themselves. They insisted on banning a product from a region that they need and are unable to supply themselves with enough of. One could think the “leaders” and ruling class masters are simply ignorant, however, this is looking more like a well-thought-out plan, one that most slaves are still too comfortable with their statism to admit.
I am extremely concerned by what I am seeing in the housing market. When the Federal Reserve decided that it was going to start aggressively hiking interest rates, it was obvious that there would be a housing crash. I repeatedly warned my readers that prices would start declining and that home sales would fall precipitously. Needless to say, that is precisely what has happened. In fact, last week we learned that home sales have now dropped for nine months in a row…
Home sales declined for the ninth straight month in October, as higher interest rates and surging inflation kept buyers on the sidelines.
Sales of previously owned homes dropped 5.9% from September to October, according to the National Association of Realtors.
This is already the longest streak of declining sales ever recorded, and this new housing crash is just getting started.
But of course what we have already witnessed has been pretty breathtaking.
According to Zero Hedge, U.S. home sales in October 2022 were 28.4 percent lower than they were in October 2021…
This monthly decline pushed the year-over-year drop in existing home sales to -28.4% – its worst level since 2008!
Sadly, things are likely to get even worse in the months ahead.
The following are 3 major factors which will make 2023 a historically painful year for the housing market…
#1 The Federal Reserve
Fed officials keep assuring us that interest rates are going to go even higher.
This is literally suicidal behavior, but they are going to do it anyway even though they fully understand what this will do to the housing market.
In fact, an economist at the Dallas Fed just published research which shows that U.S. home prices could soon fall by as much as 20 percent…
U.S. home prices could tumble as much as 20% as the highest mortgage rates in two decades threaten to trigger a “severe” price correction, according to research from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.
Fed policymakers need to strike a delicate balance as they try to deflate the housing bubble without bursting it, Dallas Fed economist Enrique Martínez-García wrote in the analysis published this week.
#2 The Employment Market
Officials at the Federal Reserve also know that hiking interest rates even higher will cause unemployment to go up.
We have already seen major layoff announcements at large corporations all over the nation, and now we can add Carvana to the list…
Carvana is laying off about 1,500 people, or 8% of its workforce, Friday following a free fall in the company’s stock this year, a weakening used vehicle market and concerns around the company’s long-term trajectory, according to an internal message first obtained by CNBC’s Scott Wapner.
The email from Carvana CEO Ernie Garcia, titled “Today is a hard day,” cites economic headwinds including higher financing costs and delayed car purchasing. He says the company “failed to accurately predict how this would all play out and the impact it would have on our business.”
If the Fed continues to raise rates, eventually millions of Americans could lose their jobs.
And because the vast majority of Americans are barely scraping by from month to month, all of a sudden we could have millions of homeowners that are unable to pay their mortgages.
Just like in 2008 and 2009, that would cause a catastrophic spike in foreclosures, and the ripple effects would be absolutely devastating for Wall Street.
#3 Underwater Mortgages
During the last housing crash, millions of homeowners found themselves deeply underwater on their mortgages as home prices fell rapidly.
If home prices end up plunging 20 percent or more in 2023, we will once again have vast numbers of Americans that owe far more on their homes than they are currently worth.
In 2008 and 2009, large numbers of people that found themselves in such a situation decided to simply walk away from their mortgages.
If the same thing were to happen again, it would cause an extraordinary amount of pain for lenders.
So let us hope that such a scenario does not materialize.
Unfortunately, we continue to get more numbers that indicate that we are heading into a very serious economic downturn.
For example, we just learned that the Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators has now fallen for eight months in a row…
The Conference Board’s Leading Economic Indicators index showed that conditions further deteriorated in October, with the gauge down 0.8% from the previous month. That follows a 0.5% decline in September.
“The U.S. LEI fell for an eighth consecutive month, suggesting the economy is possibly in a recession,” said Ataman Ozyildirim, senior director of economic research at The Conference Board.
Meanwhile, yet another survey has found that the vast majority of U.S. consumers are currently living paycheck to paycheck…
A new employee report said on Friday that as many as 60% of U.S. consumers are living paycheck to paycheck.
The report, a collaboration between data analysis PYMNTS and LendingClub, said 55% of nearly 3,500 people surveyed said they have limited spending capacity, and 49% are shifting their shopping preferences.
The report said that 66% of those living paycheck to paycheck have slashed spending.
Most Americans will not be dealing with the harsh economic environment that is ahead from a position of financial strength.
When things get really bad, millions of people will suddenly not be able to pay their bills.
In particular, I feel really bad for those that purchased homes at or near the peak of the market. So many of them are going to end up losing those homes.
We may have been able to avoid another housing crash if our leaders had pursued much different policies.
But that didn’t happen, and now we are going to experience an immense amount of chaos in 2023 and beyond.
The Federal Reserve created the largest housing bubble in American history by flooding the system with money and pushing interest rates all the way to the floor.
Now they are violently bursting that bubble, and the months ahead are going to be extraordinarily painful for the housing market.

A stray Ukrainian missile has hit Poland, killing two people. NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) is blaming Russia in an obvious attempt to provoke a more serious war.
“This is not Ukraine’s fault. Russia bears ultimate responsibility as it continues its illegal war against Ukraine,” NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told reporters in Brussels according to a report by Reuters. The missile fired was likely a Ukrainian air defense missile.
“From the information that we and our allies have, it was an S-300 rocket made in the Soviet Union, an old rocket and there is no evidence that it was launched by the Russian side,” Polish President Andrzej Duda said. “It is highly probable that it was fired by Ukrainian anti-aircraft defense.”
Ukraine immediately called on NATO to “react” to “Russia’s” missile crossing the border, meaning it’s likely this was done on purpose to further ignite a global conflict.
NATO“needs to act,” Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky claimed on Tuesday as he laid the blame for an explosion in Poland not far from the Ukrainian border with Russia. Earlier. “This is a Russian missile strike on collective security!” Zelensky said in a statement, calling it “a very serious escalation.” He also urged western nations to put Russia “in its place” and branded the country as a “terrorist,” according to a report by RT.
Ukraine is convinced it needs to start a global war and the West is convinced the public should blame Russia.
“The longer Russia feels impunity the higher is the threat for anyone within the reach of Russian missiles,” the Ukrainian president warned, though he did not provide evidence proving it was Russian missiles that struck Poland.
The Russian Defense Ministry denied any responsibility for the incident by saying that the nation’s military did not strike any targets near the Polish-Ukrainian border. It also branded the Polish media reports a “provocation.”
There was no immediate Ukrainian response on Wednesday to the suggestions that it was a Ukrainian stray and some in the West wanted an investigation done before accusations were made. However, they were always determined to blame Russia, even if it was a Ukrainian missile that struck Poland.
“[Some Western rulers] stressed that, whatever the outcome of that investigation, Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is squarely to blame for the ongoing violence,” British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s office said after a meeting between Sunak and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on the summit sidelines.
The global energy crisis has entered an alarming new stage. In recent months, natural gas prices have risen to absurd heights and supplies have been getting tighter and tighter all over the planet. But I did not expect that we would see any rationing yet. It had been my opinion that we could possibly see some limited rationing once we reached the worst moments of the winter, but apparently things are worse than I thought. In fact, when I heard about what is going on in Pakistan right now I was absolutely horrified…
Pakistan has no other option but to ration natural gas supply this winter, with gas provided three times a day for cooking to households, amid acute shortages and a forex crisis in the world’s fifth most populous country, an official from the petroleum ministry told a Parliament panel this week.
The energy crisis in Pakistan has deepened this year, and now, natural gas supplies will be very limited for households, according to officials.
How would you feel if your natural gas was turned off throughout the winter except for meal times?
It is being reported that Pakistani households will only have their natural gas turned on “for three hours in the morning, two hours in the afternoon, and three hours in the evening”…
“There would be no gas supply (to household consumers) for 16 hours” a day, Muhammad Mahmood told the Parliament’s Standing Committee on Petroleum, as carried by the local outlet Dawn.
Pakistani households will have gas available for three hours in the morning, two hours in the afternoon, and three hours in the evening, Mahmood added.
I had no idea that conditions were already so bad in Pakistan.
And there are some in the business community that would like to make natural gas rationing for Pakistani households “a permanent feature throughout the year”…
Appreciating the judicious decision of natural gas rationing for domestic consumers, the business community has urged the government to make this prudent decision a permanent feature throughout the year as 50 percent of total gas in Pakistan is consumed by households, which is one of major hindrances in economic growth of the country.
With prices for imported natural gas being so high, it is probably inevitable that other poor countries will be forced to implement similar measures.
Needless to say, that is really, really bad news.
Thanks to relentless stockpiling ahead of time, things will not be quite as bad for Europe this winter as many had originally anticipated.
But Europeans could still be facing occasional blackouts, and they will definitely have to deal with “sky-high energy bills”…
In 1972, natural gas exports from the Soviet Union accounted for around 4% of European gas consumption. By 2021, Russia was providing almost 40% of Europe’s gas. As Moscow’s market share has gradually increased, so has its ability to manipulate prices and trigger crises. Most Europeans now acknowledge that this reliance on Russia represents a major strategic blunder. Too late. Europe’s “green energy transition” features one major flaw: it relies on Russian gas imports.
Back to the future. This will be an extremely difficult winter for all Europeans, whether they face blackouts or heating issues and sky-high energy bills.
The good news, if you want to call it that, is that European fertilizer production is starting to bounce back a bit.
At one point, European fertilizer output had been cut by nearly two-thirds, but now it is back up to 63 percent…
Norway’s Yara International one of the world’s largest fertilizer companies, said that it was now operating at 65% of its European ammonia capacity—having slashed output to just over a third of its total capacity for much of the second half of this year. Commodity research firm CRU International Ltd. said Yara’s moves are in line with other producers. Overall, European fertilizer output is now at about 63% of total capacity, having previously stood at around 37% at the start of October, CRU said.
Let us hope that number continues to rise, because fertilizer prices are already insanely high.
As those prices continue to rise, the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization is warning that the global food crisis that we are now witnessing could get substantially worse…
“Higher costs for imported energy and fertilizer are behind the foreseen increase. Both are particularly relevant in import bills, posing strains for the current accounts of low-income and lower middle-income countries,” the report said, adding that “As a result, some countries may be forced to reduce input applications, almost inevitably resulting in lower agricultural productivity and lower domestic food availability.”
Here in the United States, those that rely on natural gas for heating are likely to see much higher bills this winter.
At this point, things are looking particularly grim in New England…
With the global natural gas supply stretching thin, Eversource and other utility companies have been sounding the alarm.
Bills have already been going up for some.
Eyewitness News ran into someone in Berlin who described how one of her bills increased to over $200.
Even though bills will be going up quite a bit, ISO New England is assuring everyone that there won’t be any shortages as long as winter conditions are “mild” or “moderate”…
While Eversource has sounded the alarm, ISO New England, the region’s electricity grid operator, is still saying we should be ok for the season.
ISO New England said there’s enough supply for mild and moderate winter conditions.
Unfortunately, Eversource is not as confident.
In fact, Eversource is actually asking Joe Biden to waive the Jones Act so that it can secure more natural gas supplies for the upcoming winter season…
The CEO for New England’s largest utility, Eversource Energy, called on President Biden in a letter last week to enact federal emergency orders to “swiftly address the growing concerns” of New England’s access, or lack thereof, to natural gas this winter heating season.
New England, which lacks the natural gas pipeline infrastructure to fill out its demand, relies on LNG shipments to its three liquefied natural gas import facilities on “foreign flagged vessels,” CEO Joseph Nolan said. “However, because of the war in Ukraine, LNG imports are not available…in the volumes necessary to meet this winter’s needs without causing further stress on European markets and the American economy.”
We are still over a month away from the official start of winter.
If authorities are scrambling this much already, what will things be like once we get to January and February?
Without a doubt, this will be a winter like no other.
But I actually expect the following winters to be even worse.
So enjoy this winter while you can, because the years ahead are going to be exceedingly challenging.
The global elite desperately want to move us away from traditional forms of energy, and they promised us that the “green revolution” would change everything.
Well, everything is definitely about to change, but not in a good way.
