I am seeing more and more women becoming gun owners and deciding to get their concealed carry licenses. These new women gun owners are typically full of questions and eager to learn. Unlike many men who see themselves as experts in the firearms field, most women who are new to gun ownership are open-minded and…

Just over the past few days, our planet has been hit over and over again by major natural disasters. So why is this happening? At this moment, we are reaching the end of a summer that many of us will remember for a long time to come. The western United States, Europe and China are all in the midst of the worst droughts that they have experienced in centuries, and meanwhile relentless flooding has absolutely devastated other areas. For example, unprecedented flooding resulted in a third of the entire nation of Pakistan being under water for an extended period of time. We could definitely use a break, but instead the past few days have brought us an extremely alarming series of historic disasters. For example, the western coast of Mexico was just hit by an extremely powerful magnitude 7.6 earthquake…
A powerful earthquake struck near the coast of western Mexico on Monday on the anniversary of two devastating temblors, shaking buildings and sending residents of Mexico City scurrying onto the streets for safety.
Shortly after 1 p.m. local time, the quake registered at 7.6 magnitude by the U.S. Geological Survey hit near the coast on the border region of the states of Michoacan and Colima at a depth of around 15 km (9 miles).
Interestingly, this quake happened on the exact same date that enormous earthquakes hit Mexico in 1985 and 2017.
Is that just some sort of a bizarre coincidence?
Meanwhile, Hurricane Fiona continues to cause “catastrophic” damage in the Caribbean…
Hurricane Fiona bore down on the Dominican Republic on Monday after knocking out the power grid and unleashing floods and landslides in Puerto Rico, where the governor said the damage was ‘catastrophic’.
Fiona was forecast to swipe the Dominican Republic early Monday and then northern Haiti and the Turks and Caicos Islands with the threat of heavy rain. It could threaten the far southern end of the Bahamas on Tuesday.
Hurricane warnings were posted for the Dominican Republic’s eastern coast from Cabo Caucedo to Cabo Frances Viejo, and for the Turks and Caicos.
It is going to take Puerto Rico many years to recover from the utter devastation that has been caused by this exceedingly intense storm.
At the same time, “one of the worst typhoons the country has ever seen” is literally forcing millions of people to evacuate from their homes in Japan…
Nine million people have been told to evacuate their homes as Japan is battered by one of the worst typhoons the country has ever seen.
The super typhoon Nanmadol has killed two people and injured almost 90.
It hit Kyushu, the southernmost of Japan’s four main islands, on Sunday morning, and is set to reach Honshu, the largest island, in the coming days.
We aren’t hearing too much about this “super typhoon” in the United States, but it is truly one of the worst disasters in the modern history of Japan.
Not too far away, a magnitude 6.4 earthquake hit Taiwan on Saturday, and that was followed by a magnitude 6.8 earthquake on Sunday…
A 6.8 magnitude earthquake rattled much of Taiwan on Sunday, which followed a 6.4 magnitude earthquake Saturday, according to Taiwan’s Central Weather Bureau (CWB).
The magnitude 6.8 quake hit around 2:44 pm local time (0644 GMT), with an epicenter in Taitung county, a town in the eastern part of the island nation. CWB said the quake was recorded at a relatively shallow depth of 7 kilometers (4 miles).
The US Geological Survey initially reported that the quake registered a 7.2 magnitude but revised it to 6.9 — still a higher reading than CWB’s estimate.
These quakes caused quite a bit of destruction, and of course this comes at a really bad time as Taiwanese authorities feverishly prepare for a potential Chinese invasion.
Also on Saturday, Alaska was hit by a storm that was so immense that it was actually ripping homes right off of their foundations…
The western coast of Alaska was hit with historic storms on Saturday, causing extreme flooding that led to several homes being ripped from their foundations.
Gov. Mike Dunleavy of Alaska declared the crisis a disaster emergency at a Saturday press conference where he also confirmed that had been zero reported injuries.
“Just now, I verbally declared a disaster for communities impacted by the West Coast storm. SEOC (State Emergency Operations Center) has received no reports of injuries at this time. We will continue to monitor the storm and update Alaskans as much as possible,” the Republican governor said.
Meanwhile, we continue to see a tremendous amount of volcanic activity all over the planet.
According to Volcano Discovery, there are 26 volcanoes that are currently erupting around the globe right now.
I have been relentlessly warning my readers that our planet is becoming increasingly unstable, and that process seems to be accelerating as we approach the final days of summer.
So will the months ahead bring even more devastation?
Sadly, as with so many other things, many people out there simply assume that things will eventually “return to normal” somehow.
Of course there are others that acknowledge that conditions are changing, but they believe that humanity can fix what is wrong if we just pass enough laws.
Needless to say, those people are completely and utterly delusional.
Nothing that we can do will alter the changes that are happening.
The giant rock that we all live on is starting to go haywire, and the shaking that we are experiencing now is going to get a whole lot worse during the years that are ahead of us.
Earthquakes will increase in power and frequency, volcanic eruptions will become more common, great storms will cause unprecedented destruction, and immense droughts and floods will continue to ravage much of the planet.
And through it all, many of the “experts” will continue to insist that everything is completely “normal” even to the bitter end.
You can believe them if you want.
Of you can believe the evidence that is happening right in front of your eyes.
The choice is up to you.

The post Why Are So Many Historic Natural Disasters Suddenly Hitting Our Planet As We Reach The End Of Summer? appeared first on The Economic Collapse.
Things are starting to get really crazy in Germany. The Germans are dealing with the worst inflation crisis that they have seen since the days of the Weimar Republic, and meanwhile economic activity is starting to shut down all over the nation. Of course other European countries are facing similar problems, but Germany was supposed to be the economic rock that the rest of Europe could always depend upon. Unfortunately, the decision by the Russians to cut off the flow of gas through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline is hitting Germany extremely hard. If we could just get both sides to agree to end the war in Ukraine, that would greatly help matters, but that simply isn’t going to happen. In fact, it appears that Vladimir Putin has decided to greatly escalate matters, and the western powers will inevitably greatly escalate matters in response. What this means is that the economic turmoil that we are witnessing in Europe isn’t going anywhere any time soon.
This week, we got some inflation numbers out of Germany that are so high that it is difficult to believe that they are actually real…
German producer prices rose in August at the fastest rate since records began in 1949, data released by the Federal Statistical Office showed today, pointing to a further increase in consumer prices.
Producer prices of industrial products rose by 45.8 percent compared to the same month of last year. Compared to July 2022, prices rose 7.9 percent.
Soaring energy prices on the back of Russia’s war against the Ukraine remain the main driver behind rising prices.
If we continue to see monthly increases of around 8 percent, next year at this time we could be talking about a yearly jump of close to 100 percent.
Wow.
How bad do things have to get before we actually start using the term “hyperinflation”?
Energy prices are the biggest reason why inflation has gotten completely out of control, and the German government has been forced to nationalize a huge natural gas company in order to keep it from going under…
The German government is closing in on an agreement to nationalize gas giant Uniper SE, as Berlin moves to stave off a collapse of the country’s energy sector.
A provisional agreement between the government, Uniper and its main shareholder, Finland’s Fortum Oyj, has been reached, according to people familiar with the situation. While contracts haven’t been signed, Berlin is aiming for an announcement later this week.
According to the CEO of Uniper, the company has been losing about 100 million euros a day during this crisis.
Needless to say, the German government cannot save everyone, and so a lot of firms won’t survive this crisis at all.
For example, a manufacturer that has been making toilet paper for Germans for nearly 100 years is now headed into insolvency…
Hakle has been a German household name since 1928, but the Duesseldorf-based toilet paper manufacturer said all it took was this summer’s gas price shock to drive it into insolvency.
Sadly, this is just the beginning.
According to the German central bank, the nation is moving into a “broad-based and prolonged decline in economic output”…
“Economic activity may pull back somewhat this quarter and shrink markedly in the autumn and winter months,” the central bank said, adding that it didn’t forecast this adverse scenario in a June report.
Bundesbank continued: “There are mounting signs of a recession in the German economy in the sense of a clear, broad-based and prolonged decline in economic output.” It said a contraction is expected in the third quarter with deeper declines in economic activity in the fourth.
“High inflation and uncertainty with regard to energy supply and its costs affect not only the gas and electricity-intensive industry and its export business and investments, but also private consumption and the service providers dependent on it,” the central bank said.
You can refer to such a scenario as a “recession” or a “depression” if it makes you feel better.
I call it an economic collapse.
The U.S. economy will soon be experiencing immense turmoil as well.
According to billionaire Barry Sternlicht, the Fed’s exceedingly foolish policies are pushing us toward a “serious recession”…
In an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Thursday, Barry Sternlicht, the chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital, said he believes Americans are facing a major recession if the Federal Reserve proceeds with several more rate hikes as a means of curbing inflation, which is reportedly the central bank’s plan.
“The economy is braking hard,” Sternlicht told the financial news outlet, according to the Daily Caller. “If the Fed keeps this up, they are going to have a serious recession and people will lose their jobs.”
He is right on target, but instead of saying “people will lose their jobs” he should have noted that lots of people are already being laid off. This is something that I have been documenting on my website for quite some time, and this week we learned that Gap has decided to lay off hundreds of corporate workers…
Gap Inc. is cutting about 500 corporate jobs as the clothing retailer struggles with declining sales.
The job cuts, which include open positions, will be primarily at Gap’s offices in San Francisco, New York and Asia and hit various departments, a representative for the retailer confirmed Tuesday. The moves were first reported by The Wall Street Journal.
Ouch.
In this environment, very few workers are truly safe.
At this point, even the entertainment industry is letting lots of people go…
The struggling TV and film industry continues to run face first into bad news. This week it was reported that Warner Bros. Discovery was firing 100 TV ad salespeople at the same time that Paramount has considered ending offering Showtime as a standalone service, Bloomberg reported.
Netflix followed suit with their own layoffs, the report says. The company has reportedly let go hundreds of employees and abandoned some of its office space. At the same time, the firm’s stock price has collapsed and fallen more than 60% from its all time highs.
Back in 2008 and 2009, millions of Americans lost their jobs.
Will we see something similar in the months ahead?
And just like during “the Great Recession”, the housing market is really starting to slow down. In fact, we just learned that homebuilder confidence has now fallen for nine months in a row…
The confidence of builders of single-family houses fell again in September, the ninth month in a row of declines, “as the combination of elevated interest rates, persistent building material supply chain disruptions, and high home prices continue to take a toll on affordability,” the NAHB report said.
With today’s index value of 46, the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index is now below where it had been in May 2006, on the way down into the Housing Bust.
This time around, it won’t just be a few areas of the planet that suffer.
At this moment we are literally witnessing economic implosions all over the planet, and the stage is being set for an immensely painful 2023.
The one thing that could really turn things around would be peace.
Unfortunately, global leaders on both sides seem absolutely determined to drag us into the type of cataclysmic global conflict that I have been warning about for years.
So there isn’t going to be peace, and that means that things are going to get really bad in 2023 and beyond.
But I also believe that you were put at this specific moment in history for a reason.
It is when times are the darkest that the greatest good can be done, and that is something that we will all need to remember during the very dark times in front of us.

Back in August, we brought you news on the new Anderson Manufacturing Precision Series. It sparked immediate interest, with four different models, affordably priced, chambered in 5.56mm. Now Anderson adds to the series, right in time for hunting season, with two new models chambered in the growing .350 Legend.
The hunting rifles come via the Sharpshooter and Marksman variants. The Sharpshooter comes with a 20-inch government profile barrel, while the Marksman sports an 18-inch barrel. Each comes fitted with an A2 flash hider. Both rifles utilize carbine-length gas systems and feature the Anderson Low-Profile Steel Gas Block. A 15-inch M-LOK handguard provides accessory attachment points.
Inside, a Schmid Tool Two-Stage Trigger upgrades the fire control with 4 1/2-pound pull. A Magpul MOE-K2 Pistol Grip and fully adjustable PRS stock complete the furniture. Quick-detach sling mounts, adjustable comb and length of pull and a low-profile buttpad round out this well-executed hunting package.
The .350 Legend continues gaining momentum in hunting camps. Developed for states and hunting area requiring straight-walled cartridges, the .350 Legend delivers an upgrade in performance. Hunters already know, it’s billed as “the fastest straight-walled hunting cartridge in the world.”
Editor’s Note: The following story introduced the Anderson Manufacturing Precision Series in August 2022:
Few product categories continue driving interest quite like long-range and precision shooting. From long-distance hunting to PRS-style matches, it seems riflemen increasingly desire to go long. Now more folks can afford it than ever before. The Anderson Manufacturing Precision Series brings four unique long-range ARs to the market. All chambered in 5.56, each rifle retails for less than $1,000.
The Precision Series includes four distinct models: The Competitor, The Marksman, The Sharpshooter and The Varminter. Each comes with a Schmid Tool two-stage trigger and Magpul PRS (Precision Rifle Series) Lite stock. The Schmid trigger delivers a 4 1/2-pound pull with a quick reset, according to Anderson Manufacturing. Meanwhile, the PRS Lite delivers versatility via ambidextrous, quick-detach sling mounts, along with comb height and length of pull adjustment. A low-profile rubber buttpadd provides adjustment for both height and cant. The entire component weighs just 18.2 ounces.
“The precision series was developed to serve Anderson customers who like to push the limits of the AR-15 platform,” said Truman Brough, Engineer, Anderson Manufacturing. “These rifles were designed with accuracy in mind, for the most demanding shooters. Attach your favorite optic and stretch your limits at the range.”
Editor’s Take:
At first glance, this looks like a well-executed series of rifles. The 5.56 chambering makes it a great first foray into long-range (read mid-range in practical application). This provides an excellent platform to take those first steps in shooting at longer ranges. With four models featuring smart choices in affordable, quality components, the Precision Series provides a solid entry-level long-range AR.

They know exactly what they are doing. The “experts” that run the Federal Reserve know that if they dramatically hike interest rates it will cause countless American workers to lose their jobs and it will absolutely crush the housing market. And even though those two things are already starting to happen, they just announced another massive rate hike. If there was a school for central bankers, one of the very first things that they would teach you is that you should never, ever raise rates as an economy is plunging into a recession. Every Fed official knows what has happened in the past when rates have been hiked at the beginning of an economic slowdown, but they are doing it anyway. To call this “economic malpractice” would be a major understatement, and the American people should be deeply alarmed about what they are doing to us.
After everything that has already happened, it is hard to believe that Fed officials would continue to be so reckless. On Wednesday, it was announced that rates would be raised by another 75 basis points…
The Federal Reserve on Wednesday raised its benchmark interest rate by 75 basis points for the third straight month as it struggles to bring scorching-hot inflation under control, a move that threatens to slow U.S. economic growth and exacerbate financial pain for millions of households and businesses.
The three-quarter percentage point hikes in June, July and September — the most aggressive series of increases since 1994 — underscore just how serious Fed officials are about tackling the inflation crisis after a string of alarming economic reports. Policymakers voted unanimously to approve the latest super-sized hike.
It was a unanimous vote.
There wasn’t even one dissenting voice.
Have they gone completely mad?
Wall Street certainly did not like this decision. The Dow plunged hundreds of points immediately after it was announced…
The Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 522.45 points, or 1.7%, to close at 30,183.78. The S&P 500 shed 1.71% to 3,789.93, and the Nasdaq Composite slumped 1.79% to 11,220.19.
The S&P ended Wednesday’s session down more than 10% in the past month and 21% off its 52-week high. Even before the rate decision, stocks were pricing in an aggressive tightening campaign by the Fed that could tip the economy into a recession.
For ages, the Fed coddled the financial markets, but now it is almost as if they don’t even care anymore.
Personally, I am far more concerned about what will happen to ordinary hard working Americans in the months ahead. Even Jerome Powell is admitting that “an increase in unemployment” is likely because of what the Fed is doing…
“I think there’s a very high likelihood we will have a period of … much lower growth and it could give rise to an increase in unemployment,” he said.
Will that mean a recession?
“No one knows whether that process will lead to a recession or how significant a recession it will be,” Powell said. “I don’t know the odds.”
Actually, we are in a recession right now.
And Powell and his minions just made things a whole lot worse.
Even Democrats understand this. After the rate hike was announced, Senator Elizabeth Warren went on Twitter and warned that “millions of Americans” could soon lose their jobs…
.@federalreserve’s Chair Powell just announced another extreme interest rate hike while forecasting higher unemployment. I’ve been warning that Chair Powell’s Fed would throw millions of Americans out of work — and I fear he’s already on the path to doing so.
This is one of the rare occasions when Elizabeth Warren is right on target.
As I have been documenting on my website for weeks, large numbers of Americans have already been getting laid off.
In fact, things are already so bad that even Facebook is trimming their numbers…
As growth stalls and competition intensifies, Facebook parent Meta has begun quietly cutting staff by reorganizing departments, while giving ‘reorganized’ employees a narrow window to apply for other roles within the company, according to the Wall Street Journal, citing current and former managers familiar with the matter.
By shuffling people around, the company achieves staffing cuts “while forestalling the mass issuance of pink slips.”
So why would the Fed choose to raise rates when layoffs are already beginning to spike?
Higher rates are also having a devastating impact on the housing market.
This week, we learned that sales of existing homes have now fallen for seven months in a row…
Home sales declined for the seventh month in a row in August as higher mortgage rates and stubbornly high prices pushed prospective buyers out of the market.
Sales of existing homes — which include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops — were down 19.9% from a year ago and down 0.4% from July, according to a report from the National Association of Realtors.
Someone should start putting “Jerome Powell did this” stickers on for sale signs all over the nation.
Because this didn’t have to happen.
Now the housing market is already in a “deep recession”, and the Fed just keeps making things even worse…
The prolonged downturn in confidence shows the housing market has been “in a tailspin for the whole of this year,” according to Pantheon Macroeconomics chief economist Ian Shepherdson.
“Activity tracks mortgage applications with a lag, and the early September numbers are grim, even before the full hit from the rebound in mortgage rates in recent weeks works through,” Shepherdson said in a note to clients on Monday.
“In short, the housing market is in a deep recession, which is already hammering homebuilders and will soon depress housing-related retail sales,” he added.
The Fed seems determined to kill the economy.
But why?
Why would they do this?
One analyst that was just quoted by Fox Business is warning that “times are going to get tougher from here”…
“With the new rate projections, the Fed is engineering a hard landing — a soft landing is almost out of the question,” said Seema Shah, chief global strategist of Principal Global Investors. “Powell’s admission that there will be below-trend growth for a period should be translated as central bank speak for ‘recession.’ Times are going to get tougher from here.”
Yes, times are definitely going to get tougher from here.
In fact, we are eventually headed for a meltdown of epic proportions.
But instead of working to prevent a historic crisis, the Federal Reserve is actually encouraging one.
The American people deserve some answers, because there is something about all of this that really stinks.

The post They Know That They Are Killing The Economy, But They Are Doing It Anyway… appeared first on The Economic Collapse.
Do we really want to go to war with Russia and China at the same time? Because if we stay on the path that we are currently on, that is precisely what is going to happen. The incompetence that we are witnessing in Washington right now is extremely alarming, because it has very serious implications for our future. If a full-blown global war erupts, the consequences won’t just be felt on the other side of the planet. Russia and China both have multitudes of ways that they can hurt us, and a simultaneous war with both of them could easily result in millions of Americans ending up dead. In fact, most of the U.S. population could end up dead if there is a large scale nuclear exchange. So the stakes are incredibly high, and right now our current crop of leaders is the worst that we have ever had in the entire history of this country.
When Joe Biden entered the White House, I warned that he was surrounding himself with an all-star team of warmongers.
At the time, a lot of people didn’t seem too alarmed by that because a major war seemed to be a very remote possibility.
But since then warmongers such as Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan have ben relentlessly pushing Biden to be super aggressive with both Russia and China.
Now we are very deeply involved in a horrifying proxy war with Russia in Ukraine, and an interview that Biden just did with 60 Minutes has brought us much closer to a potential war with China.
When Biden was asked if U.S. forces would be sent to defend Taiwan if China decides to invade, this is how Biden responded…
When asked if the U.S forces would defend the self-ruled island which China claims as part of its territory, Biden replied: “Yes, if in fact there was an unprecedented attack.”
Asked whether this meant that, unlike in Ukraine, American men and women from the U.S. forces would be sent to defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion, Biden replied: “Yes.”
Immediately after the interview, the White House sought to “clarify” Biden’s remarks by insisting that U.S. policy toward Taiwan has not changed.
But of course the truth is that what Biden said represents a radical departure from how previous administrations approached this issue.
Needless to say, the Chinese are absolutely furious.
White House officials can try to spin this any way that they want, but all that matters to the Chinese is that the president of the United States just stated that he would send U.S. troops to Taiwan if the Chinese attempt to “reunify” with the island.
President Biden tells 60 Minutes that U.S. men and women would defend Taiwan in the event of a Chinese invasion. However, after our interview, a White House official told us that U.S. policy on Taiwan has not changed. https://t.co/ANg54LifSH pic.twitter.com/V5qjoqF36T
— 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) September 19, 2022
They are going to play this clip over and over again.
And every time they play it, they are going to get even angrier.
I have no idea why Biden would say something like this.
Either he is almost completely gone mentally, or he is trying to pick a fight with China.
I can’t really think of a third alternative that makes any sense.
Do we really want a war with China? Even prominent Democrats such as Dennis Kucinich are now asking this question…
“Is U.S. prepared for War [with] China over Taiwan? NO,” Kucinich tweeted.
“China has world’s largest navy, coast guard, military of two million, number 1 in ship building and steel production. Yet U.S. troops to defend Taiwan [says] Prez on 60 Min. Then WH says ‘No.’ Dangerous game [with] our troops as pawns.”
Kucinich ended the tweet with a hashtag reading “WWIII.”
Of course Biden and his all-star team of warmongers are not the only ones that are pushing us toward a major conflict with China.
In recent days, a key Senate committee approved a bill that would “dramatically boost American military support for Taiwan”…
A U.S. Senate committee last week approved a bill to dramatically boost American military support for Taiwan, a move that prompted warnings from both China and anti-war voices in the United States that such a policy increases the likelihood of armed conflict.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 17-5 in favor of the Taiwan Policy Act of 2022, which according to its text “promotes the security of Taiwan, ensures regional stability, and deters People’s Republic of China (PRC) aggression against Taiwan. It also threatens severe sanctions against the PRC for hostile action against Taiwan.”
If you are a member of the U.S. Senate, please do not vote for that bill.
It will make the possibility of a war with China far more likely.
And once war with China starts, nothing will ever be the same again.
Meanwhile, both sides continue to escalate the war in Ukraine.
At this point, the United States is providing more equipment to the Ukrainian military than everyone else combined. In a recent article that he published, Raheem Kassam attempted to put together a complete list of everything that we have sent them so far…
That is one long list!
And of course the Ukrainians are asking for even more, and we aren’t going to refuse them.
In fact, there are rumblings that we are going to give them longer range missiles that can reach deep inside Russia.
Vladimir Putin is warning that this would cross a “red line” and that there will be very serious “consequences” if that actually happens…
Russian President Vladimir Putin is becoming increasingly fed up with losing troops in Ukraine thanks to U.S.- and NATO-supplied weapons, and he’s clarifying what he considers a ‘red line’ that cannot be crossed without consequences.
Specifically, if the Biden regime supplies Ukraine with longer-range missiles capable of striking far deeper inside Russian territory, Putin has vowed to defend the country with any means necessary, Russia Today, which is a state-aligned media organ, reported this week.
Meanwhile, forces on the ground on both sides are being bolstered by lots of new arrivals.
On the Ukrainian side, somehow vast numbers of troops have been able to learn fluent English and now have perfect American accents…

On the Russian side, there are reports that up to 100,000 “volunteers” from North Korea could soon be made available…
North Korea has offered 100,000 “volunteer” troops to the Kremlin to help Russia win the war against Ukraine, according to Russian state media.
“There are reports that 100,000 North Korean volunteers are prepared to come and take part in the conflict,” said the Russian military pundit Igor Korotchenko on Channel One Russia, per the New York Post.
I think that fighting in Ukraine would be considered a great option compared to life in a North Korean concentration camp, and I have a feeling that is where a lot of those “volunteers” would come from.
Of course there are already lots of rumors on social media about “foreign troops” from eastern nations entering Ukraine recently.
But just like the Ukrainians, the Russians will probably deny that their ranks are being swelled by outside sources.
On another note, we have seen a number of extremely sophisticated terror attacks happen deep inside Russia recently, and Putin is warning that this could motivate his nation to greatly escalate matters in Ukraine…
“Recently, Russian Armed Forces delivered a couple of sensitive blows in that area,” Putin added, referring to Russian strikes on Ukrainian power infrastructure that came after Kyiv’s Kharkiv counteroffensive. “If the situation continues like that, our response will be more impactful. Terrorist attacks are a serious matter.”
Putin accused Ukraine of attempting to attack nuclear power plants inside Russia. “We even see attempts at perpetrating terrorist attacks in the Russian Federation, including — I am not sure if this was made public — attempts to carry out terrorist attacks near our nuclear facilities, nuclear power plants in the Russian Federation,” he said.
If what Putin is claiming is true, that is extremely alarming.
Needless to say, it isn’t just the Ukrainians and their western backers that have the ability to carry out such terror attacks.
What do you think would happen if the Russians or the Chinese decided to attack nuclear facilities or other critical infrastructure here in the United States?
If a full-blown global war erupts, they won’t hesitate to fight dirty.
Long before the war in Ukraine started, I was telling my readers that war with Russia and war with China would be coming.
Now Biden and his minions have us on the brink of such a cataclysmic global conflict, and we should all be doing whatever we can to keep it from happening.
If the American people truly understood what was at stake, there would be massive protests in every major U.S. city right now.
Unfortunately, most of the population is in a deep state of sleep.
Hopefully they will wake up soon, because the clock is ticking.

This is a place where you have stockpiled food supplies, weapons, and survival gear.
Having it secure means staying alive, so you have to install window security bars.
Then when you get to the cabin, everything is ready for you because nobody can access it.
First off, having window bars is a safety feature in itself, but there are extra deterrents you can use.
You should use unique tamper-resistant screws for exterior window bars. Once you drive them in, no one is getting them out without the right tool.
They can either have a slip side when trying to back them off or a head that requires a special tool to fit in and turn them.
Most intruders will not have this tool, so they will give up quickly when they see this.
Some models have quick release functions if you need to get out through the window.
This is important for a family. Why? Because becoming trapped inside your home during an invasion or fire, could be deadly.
You can have bars that include an interior bar that spins in place so they can’t be sawed off.
This is a clever safety feature because it will deter a burglar even if they have cutting tools.
Spear edges are also popular. Because if someone tries to reach in to open a latch, or attempt to squeeze in around the side, they’ll get snagged and cut up.
The real question is, where shouldn’t I?
Every window in your home, business, and cabin is susceptible to break-ins.
If money allows, you should get them all done. If you’re concerned about the cost or don’t want your place to look like a prison, start with the most vulnerable ones first.
They are easy to reach, and an intruder can lay on the ground to access them without much hassle.
Any windows or glass doors behind trees and bushes give a burglar time to break in while camouflaged.
Once an intruder is in the backyard, they can move around unnoticed.
These back windows are off the street. And usually, there are more windows and sliding glass doors outback.
If you have lower windows in your home where kids can get to, guard them.
Tragically, too many children have fallen to their deaths through open windows.
Any business entrance that’s made of glass can be smashed without much hassle.
So install bars OR window security film on all glass windows and doors for overnight security.
Home security is a must-have these days. Because as a responsible, resilient adult, you must protect what’s yours. And keep those inside safe from harm.
Skilled Survival has your safety and security in mind. Our list of window security bars and locks will help fortify your homestead and bug-out cabin.

Gun folks love a good debate. From .30-06 versus .270, to 1911s and Glocks, we all have our preferences. Those choices go a long way in reflecting what we hold dear in guns and shooting. Power versus speed, old school or modern, several different entrenched camps often define, and sometimes divide us as shooters. These debates range from fun to full-on rage monsters at times. One debate that continues picking up steam with the progression of small cartridges and the semi-autos that chamber them comes via .380 vs 9mm.
One of our favorite competition shooters just posted a video jumping on that vey topic. Lena Miculek, of the famed shooting Miculeks by way of Shootout Lane, shoots for Team SIG Sauer. She’s one of the absolute best and really knows her stuff.
Part promotion for the wildly popular P365 platform, the video nevertheless frames the question of which cartridge works best. And the answer, especially in today’s CCW market of small semi-autos and advanced bullet technology, centers on the needs and ability of the shooter.
The .380 and 9mm both offer their own sets of strengths and weaknesses. In terms of shooting the rounds out of the same basic platform, bullet velocity constitutes a performance difference.
“What these guns eat is what makes them different,” Miculek said. “The .380 is a smaller bullet, just by a bit. And you’re like, ‘OK, what does that mean?’ Well, we’re looking at like 100 feet per second difference in velocity. Velocity is how fast these bullets are actually coming out of the gun.”
Next comes bullet weight, a big factor in terminal performance. Here the 9mm shines greater, in an apples-to-apples comparison, Given equal barrel length, defensive 9mm loads achieve greater muzzle velocity than the .380.
“The 9mm, it weighs more than this one (.380). This is a 90-grain bullet (.380). This one’s like (9mm) like a 115-grain. That’s 25 grains (difference),” Miculek said.
Those differences play out in shootability for some. The .380 delivers less perceived recoil upon the shooter. That most often translates into less muzzle flip, helping shooters put more rounds on target quickly. Conversely, 9mm hits a little bit harder. With today’s incredible bullet technology, 9mm bullets perform tremendously during ballistic testing. They deliver performance not achieved way back when some of these cartridge debates first formed.
“Carrying a gun on you is a huge responsibility. … But know that A gun is so much better than no gun,” Miculek said “So if 9mm is too much for you to handle, you don’t feel comfortable and confident shooing it, it’s just not where you are physically, maybe it’s just a no. Cool, it doesn’t matter what your reason is, it’s your reason. .380 might be your answer because it can help you feel more comfortable, feel a little bit more confident, not have the gun jump in your hands so much. And it can either be a forever answer, a training answer, it can be anything, but it’s definitely a solid answer for anyone looking for concealed carry.”
