This is a topic we have covered extensively, and it is great to see Tucker Carlson questioning the sudden alignment of various elements that are creating a very real food insecurity problem.
The #1 factor in the shortage of food production is the newly emboldened ‘western energy policy‘ and the impact energy has on everything from field (fertilizer) to fork (distribution). Other factors include government policy that blocks food development (Dutch, Irish and Sri Lanka Farmers), a sudden uptick in food facilities having major fires and damage, and a series of issues with the feed that goes into the production of proteins.
This is all happening as the advancement of insects as a more “sustainable” protein replacement is being advanced by the same western governments. However, if you happen to notice that all of the issues travel in the same direction, you are a conspiracy theorist, or something. WATCH:
We have been watching the predictable outcomes surrounding the western government shift to change energy policy for almost two years. Approximately a year ago we first said, “the absence of food will change things.”
As energy resources like natural gas were curtailed the resulting price increase and subsequent shortage of fertilizer was discussed in great detail well in advance.
Now, we are starting to see exactly what those warning voices were talking about.
An interesting article in ZeroHedge Saturday [SEE HERE] draws attention to how the media can no longer try to ignore the created global food crisis.
ZeroHedge – People on the other side of the planet are dropping dead from starvation right now, but most people don’t even realize that this is happening. Unfortunately, most people just assume that everything is fine and dandy. If you are one of those people that believe that everything is just wonderful, I would encourage you to pay close attention to the details that I am about to share with you. Global hunger is rapidly spreading, and that is because global food supplies have been getting tighter and tighter.
If current trends continue, we could potentially be facing a nightmare scenario before this calendar year is over. (read more)
The article then goes on to detail the issues and food shortages in Pakistan, India and the entire African continent. Factually, according to media reports on the region, the worst food crisis in history is happening – yet most U.S. and European Union media are avoiding it. The famine is happening in almost complete western silence.
Keep in mind, none of this is unexpected. In fact, the G7 countries discussed the pending problem in mid 2022, yet no one took any steps to avoid it.
Vladimir Putin’s military action against eastern Ukraine had nothing to do with the severe food shortages and inflation in Sri Lanka {link}. Nor did Russia have any influence over the Dutch government trying to stop food production {link}. Additionally, Putin had no control over Justin Trudeau’s decision to limit harvest yields by blocking the use of nitrogen-based fertilizer {link}. More importantly, it was not Vladimir Putin who forced all the western politicians to sign up for a new ‘climate friendly’ energy program that is destroying the ability of western farms to generate higher yield crops.
You do not need to be a farmer to understand that nitrogen/phosphorus-based industrial fertilizer has been the reason why farm yields have generated massive amounts of food on a global basis. The United States, Canada, the U.K. and places like the Netherlands have massively increased their ability to generate food for export, in large part due to the success of improved fertilizer and crop saving modern pesticides. Take those farming advancements away under the guise of climate change and you get Sri Lanka, Pakistan and now the African Continent.
Those western climate and energy policies create downstream consequences. The decision to chase a new global energy policy under the name “Build Back Better,” in combination with short-sighted EU sanctions against Russia, and you get food shortages.
It was not Vladimir Putin who told British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz their proactive recommendation to switch from crop-based biofuels to human food would be blocked. That G7 decision was made by Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden. {link} Even more significantly, it was not Russia who threatened the multinational energy companies about investing in Africa for expanded natural gas supplies for their fertilizer needs. That threat came from the same western government alliance, per their instructions from the World Economic Forum group {link}.
It was predictable {JUNE 21st} {June 30th} and {July 6th} that western government leaders would seek to avoid responsibility for the food crisis they created, and throughout the latter part of 2022 we saw western media trying, desperately, to frame Russia for global food shortages in order to protect western politicians.
I said this in July of last year and as the consequences now surface it is even more critical to understand.
Joe Biden, NATO, the G7, the European Union, the World Bank, USAID, and every western leader in the United States and Europe stated in early and mid 2022 there will be food shortages in 2023.
They did not say there might be shortages; their statements were emphatic, there will be shortages.
Accept this basic cornerstone. Then ask why not a single proactive step has been taken by any of the aforementioned institutions or governments to alleviate what they declare is a certainty. Why?
Simple question, “why?”
If all of the western nations, non-govt organizations and heads of state, are aware of a coming food crisis, why is there no proactive response?
It is a question that even the most hardcore leftists will not answer, because there is only one answer. No action is being taken because they do not want to take action. No effort to avoid the crisis is being done, because they do not want the crisis avoided.
Peel all the layers of obfuscation and causation away, and what we find is the epicenter of the food shortage is directly the result of the Build Back Better agenda. A post-pandemic western government deliberate decision to radically change global energy development. In succinct terms, the climate change agenda.
However, regardless of how you feel about the validity of “climate change,” the cause of diminished food supplies is purposeful. It is not climate change causing food shortages. It is the purposeful action taken under the guise of mitigating climate change that is causing the shortage of food.
The collective Build Back Better energy policy of western governments’ is the reason for massive increases in energy costs, massive oil price jumps, gasoline price increases, significant increases in chemical costs, increases in diesel fuel costs, shortages of fertilizer created using natural gas, and the end result is lower crop yields, higher farming costs and eventually, food shortages. They knew this.
All of the organizations and government who have been decrying the future shortage of food, know it is the radical shift in energy resource development that is creating the crisis. This acceptance of reality begins the framework to understand just how entrenched and committed these western leaders are toward their beloved climate change agenda.
We are only just now beginning to see the first aspects of the food shortage. However, once the issue becomes unavoidable the western leaders will not and cannot accept the blame for what they have done. They will blame-cast, excuse and justify what is surfacing.
Food shortages will be blamed on the Ukraine conflict, Russian aggression, climate change and any various iteration of justification that does not identify the true cause, their energy ideology.
I’m not so sure that people fully understand what the entire system of western government would be willing to do to avoid being blamed for avoidable death on a potential scale that is quite alarming. All of the western leaders, institutions and governments are on the same boat. They are all in this together.
(June 22, 2022) – (Reuters) – The European Union is divided on how to help poorer nations fight a growing food crisis and address shortages of fertilizers caused by the war in Ukraine, with some fearing a plan to invest in plants in Africa would clash with EU green goals.
The need for food “clashes with EU green goals.”… Let that sink in.
Priorities!
Nothing to see here comrade, nothing to see….
Our 3 chickens. Last summer getting 4-5 eggs every couple days. Since about September, 1 egg total every 2-4 days. Friend at church. 27 or so chickens. 6-7 eggs total every couple days. I just checked my feed. It’s Layer Crumbles from, interestingly, Tucker Milling in Guntersville, AL. I get mine at a local family farm supply place. I’ll try and contact Tucker Milling.
Just sent a comment/question. Hope not too late and it puts me in spam as too late for real comment.
they lay less in the winter. once the days start getting longer they will lay more.
^^^ This. Egg ‘factories’ use artificial lights and heating to keep production up.
That’s true. One more result of the bi dung administration’s war on fuel production.
“Bi dung”. Boy is that accurate!!
So do experienced farmers. It’s more than just the Winter molt. Some small time producers haven’t seen eggs since last September. It’s the feed. Stop the corporate feed and give them ANYTHING else, even dog or cat food if you have to. They’ll eat it.
My grandmother grew up on a farm but lived in town and kept chickens in town, and fed them nothing but kitchen scraps. Remember as a little kid watching them fight over potato peelings.
My grandparents did, too.
Best thing for chickens is a well sown pasture. Put them in a tractor and move them to a different spot a couple times a week. You can map out a grid in your yard by the dimensions of the tractor x 12, and you won’t need to buy hardly any feed at all
There have been numerous rumors about the feed from Tractor Supply. I know people with chickens and their hens are laying, but they use different feed.
Strong lites help in production.
It is winter Capt paranoia, and birds start laying less after their first year in every case.
Did anyone watch the vid????
Tractor Supply feed has been pegged to low egg yields this winter.
I don’t remember which day, maybe last Friday Mike Adams (from Natural News) said he was going to be testing Tractor Feed’s chicken feed, he lives in Texas, & I don’t remember if he says he buys a local feed or Tractor’s.
Went looking to see if I could find some more info, & from the first link:
“…Note: Mike Adams has committed to acquiring and testing Tractor Supply chicken feed products in his food science lab and sharing the results publicly, whatever they show. Tests to be conducted will include aflatoxins, heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, zinc, copper, strontium, etc.), glyphosate and a full slate of microbiology including e.coli, salmonella, yeast and mold…”
https://www.naturalnews.com/2023-01-26-tractor-supply-chicken-feed-laced-stop-eggs.html
https://www.naturalnews.com/2023-01-31-tractor-supplys-board-of-directors-heavily-infested-with-globalists.html
I have heard Tractor Supply has been putting a product in their feed that slows egg laying. I know they put things in cow feed so they don’t produce psilocybin mushrooms.
How does TSC do that when its made in a factory by PURINA? Shouldn’t you be blaming PURINA?
tucker carlson showed a woman egg farmer saying her purina chicken feed was the problem. when she switched to a small local feed producer the chickens started producing eggs again.
I’ve heard great things about Tucker Milling and other stories of people having great success with their chickens on that feed. Tractor Supply feed was the culprit and they buy from big conglomerates who are also in the egg business, so read into that what you will. I use the local feed store cooperative. I have had no problems with my chickens other than molting time and short days during winter. I don’t do heat or lights to push them to lay. Production is going back up now that the days are longer.
If you need the extra eggs, give them additional light ( but be careful to avoid broken bulbs or hot bulbs contacting bedding! Try cooler LED lights.)
Adding extra protein to their diet helps, too.
I give them sunflower seeds.
I buy chicken feed from Azure Standard. It is organic, and not much more costly than what they sell at the farm stores.
Since I use a whole grain food, I am going to try sprouting it. That makes the nutrients more bio-available. Youtube has how-to videos on this.
Yeah, they can miss me with their bugs.
Not going to happen…ever.
I do want to get wheels on my little coop to roll around in the yard and let the chickens eat the bugs to maybe increase egg production.
I read where someone switched to rabbit feed and her chickens began laying again.
If you do that it is fine but you should also provide a calcium source. Oyster shells work well.
zee bugz is what zee chickens eat
And dried mealworms, animal feed grade (sad the grade would ever need mentioning) is currently around $10/lb at the local tractor supply.
So if i am paying about $7/lb for organic hamburger meat now, in the future… its going to be unaffordable to put bugs on the table!!!
😂
About two months ago…someone somewhere posted a picture of ‘incgredients’ on a bag of green bean type chips…which showed ‘powdered crickets’ as part of the ingredients…..
Buyer beware!
For the oldsters amongst us….carry a dedicated magnifying glass in your purse or wallet and take it out and use it when shopping for for food….
Start reading labels.
Start objecting to the non pronouncable chemicals in our food and other edible stuff.
I am of the opinon that a lot of these chemicals (and bugs), are left over industrial compounds that the globalists and corporatists have found a use for. And monetized it. Check out flouride, for instance.
Also notice the country source of the food. The can, bag, or jar will say, “Product of Peru” or “Product of China” or something similar. Food plants in other countries don’t necessarily have inspections and they don’t particularly care if there is a problem with the product.
I also noticed recently that some produce now says from North America as opposed to USA or Mexico.
Or made in America but they don’t say where the ingredients come from.
All my dog friends are against treats from the big boxes. Also, the quality of kibble has declined over the years….Purina used to be top line…now, linked to Nestles I think which is linked to France.
Some even make their own dog food now…I am not that dedicated, yet….
I feed my dogs green beans, potatoes, and chicken thighs. I can it up in my canner and do monthly batches in quart jars
eating highly processed foods is probably a bad idea to start with. eat potatoes not potato chips, corn not corn chips.
So true.
Where is Ellen Brockovitch when we need her?
Don’t worry, processed convenience food is going away.
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are Disease, Pestilence, Famine and WAR (not death, which is inevitable). Notice that ruling demonic parasites have control over all these death vectors and are out to exterminate humanity. Disobey.
If we eat the bugs…no one will notice, at least for a while, ‘pestilence’.
Remember also that the Lord said that unless He shortened the time of the tribulation that “there would be no flesh left”.
no they aren’t. for starters disease and pestilence are synonyms. they are, according to st. john the divine, author of the book of revelations, conquest, slaughter, famine, and death. now that seems to double count slaughter/death but it’s really two sources of death: from war (conquest) and from famine. disease doesn’t need to apply because once you have been conquered and your food taken you will die from starvation in less than a month. disease need not apply.
When I hear the word, ‘pestilence’, I think of swarms of crickets and locusts etc….but that is just me…
Disease can be caused by pestilence? Like the fleas on rats that caused the bubonic plaque?
Or … bioengineered mosquitoes?
“Food shortages will be blamed on the Ukraine conflict, Russian aggression, climate change and any various iteration of justification that does not identify the true cause, their energy ideology.”
Correction: The “energy ideology” is the faux cause. The real driver is weakening the US and western alliance to enable the rising hegemon to complete its rise. (The 100 Year Plan)
Have you noticed how China and Russia are strengthening their energy position, while the US and western alliance weaken theirs?
“However, if you happen to notice that all of the issues travel in the same direction, you are a conspiracy theorist, or something.”
Its not just food and energy. EVERYTHING is trending in the same direction. While the propaganda, censorship, and psyops machines spin madly, and the masses are under the spell of mass formation.

The West will end up like Oliver Twist to China and Russia….begging for food. Not the western elite, but we plebes.
Let’s not forget we’re in a solar minimum too, so to me it’s an acknowledgement from the greenness their philosophy is BS and they’re taking advantage available with lockdowns, “viruses”, clot-shots and the energy/food/capital production reduction to lower the human population. They think we’re stupid, and many are…but even now many of them are waking up. Question is, is it too late?
Some observe:
The US and western alliance will end up as vassals to China. Under totalitarian rule by satraps. (The 100 Year Plan)
Russia will end up higher in the hierarchy, but still subject to China the hegemon.
The Ukraine war is Russia sacrificing blood and treasure in exchange for this position in the coming hegemony. The US is also playing a part in Ukraine in exchange for position under the rising hegemon, in this view.
These views stem from the fact that there does not appear to be a rational, defensible goal with the US/NATO Ukraine campaign, but Ukraine does serve to further weaken the western alliance in multiple ways: Depleting weapons; accelerating debt, inflation, and coming monetary collapse; causing more energy strangulation and food shortages; breaking the petrodollar hegemony; further destroying global trust in the US; increasing fear and anxiety to reinforce mass formation leading to totalitarianism. Possibly to cause WWIII to slam totalitarianism down abruptly.
In this view, Russia is overtly allied with China, this is corroborated by joint military operations, oil transactions circumventing western sanctions, coordination on SWIFT and petrodollar usurpation, and other things.
Also in this view, the US is also allied with China, but covertly. Many things indicate this, you can connect the dots.
So China is the rising hegemon pulling the strings behind the curtain, both Russia and the US dance to China’s tune in Ukraine, NATO and the western alliance follow the US out of fear, and the 100 Year Plan nears its goals.
China is at least as broke as the US. We are I believe about 60% of their export market. If/when our economy goes, so does theirs. China is not taking over the world. And neither is the US. Or the EU for that matter.
It is never too late to turn to God, I mean, if they are truly “waking up.”
At this point it’s our only chance.
We’re not able to change God’s Will. We are under His judgement now, for millions of abortions and for, as a country, turning away from God. There is no saving the U.S. at this point. But God will not forsake His children. There are millions of us here.
There have been other countries that have fallen in the past as documented in the Bible. The U.S. will be the latest one to fall.
May God have mercy on us, His Children. And I thank God for His judgement on this corrupt and hedonistic country. Praise God!
Totally agree.
The stupid ones vote for dumbocrats.
But at least most of the dumbocraps got the safe and effective stroke poke.
In a solar minimum and resulting mini ice age (like the Maunder Minimum*), nations with strong energy positions will fare much better than nations with weak energy positions.
Notice: China, Russia, and other BRICS+ nation plus central and South America, are STRENGTHENING their energy positions.
While the US and western alliance are actively WEAKENING their energy positions.
Could an approaching mini ice age be a factor in the timing of: The manufactured plandemic and gravely harmful shots, installing the elderpuppet to the WH, escalation of the manufactured environmental hysteria used to harm energy and food supplies, and the manufactured Ukraine conflict, all combining to seriously weaken the US western alliance including energy?
Asking for a friend.
It’s a factor in their timing to relelase the pandemic and accompanying economic shutdowns… They will claim the inactivity stopped or slowed AGW… so now they must continue with the restrictions since they “work”…. And most will never realize it was all a natural process caused by the solar cycles, having nothing to do with tyranny, despotism and the diabolical NWO they are trying to force upon all of us.
Nope. China imports almost 40% of their food.
The solar cycle is past minimum, heading to a new maximum, and going there faster than expected.

The war of information! 5th Gen. warfare!
When you go shopping, check out the ingredients on things like cereal, bread, cheese, etc. You may see something that says ‘acheta domesticus’. What is that, you wonder? It’s house crickets. They are already being bred, cooked, turned into powder, and being put into various food items. I wonder why the ingredients just don’t say ‘house cricket’…??? It is, of course, just another way for the government to slip something by you.
You are awesome! I just posted something similar upthread…great minds think alike.
I advocated for carrying a magnifying glass in one’s purse or wallet, and to read and check ingredients.
We can hold our elected officials feets to the fire!
Conversely, the wheat production in Russia last year increased by something like 20%. They are attempting to thwart the absurd ideology of the west, by assisting ‘friendly countries’ (ie, 80% of the world that is not aligned with ‘western’ values), with this production. How strange is it, to grow up thinking that the US ‘experiment’ forged in the 1700’s, was going to bring democracy and human rights to the world, only to learn now that, at some point, we actually became the ‘baddies’.
We became the “baddies” because too many foxes, left unchecked, have been guarding the henhouse. This is what happens when our leaders are *installed* by enemy combatants instead of duly elected (or not) by the American people!!
This is the paradox of a free society left unguarded. Of COURSE we attracted all the despots! Here in our free society, it’s all too easy for the snakes to slide into place with minimal resistance, especially with our rigged elections!
When even the Supreme Court forgets their original purpose, which is to actually defend and protect the US Constitution, and Federal judges are no longer compelled to follow Constitutional law, we have truly lost our way!
Our ENEmedia parrots the ideals of a “Democracy! Democracy!” to further erode what is, in fact, our Constitutional Republic. USA is NOT a democracy!
Even our military is out to lunch, enlisting to receive sex reassignment surgeries and fight UN’s neocon/ proxy wars, instead of to serve and PROTECT our Constitutional Republic and the American people!
Only God can help us now!
Fun fact: It takes over 350,000 crickets to give the protein of one cow.
So given that little statistic, for the people of say one country….lets say the USA for kicks and giggles/s…how many crickets will we need on an annual basis?
Now…who and how many “whos” will ‘raise’ or produce ze bugs before they go to the factory for processing?
How many factories will be needed? What is the estimated operational cost of said factory?
How many people to staff those factories? Wages? Unions?
How much electricity used, diverted say from those glorious Electric Vehicles? Just for food?
How many new “regulations” will be needed? And regulators and auditors for the FDA?
This looks to be a uni-bird party type newly to be created industry???
Humans Cannot live on insects, we cannot digest bugs! Cancer and other ailments will be the result.
I agree….I was being sarcastic, kind of pointing out how the government would tool this as a new industry and job creation type thing….
I forgot to add in my above list….the regulators from CDC, FDA, NIH, various and local city, state and county health departments…..
There are a lot of ailments associated with overly fluoridated water, too.

So, the revolutionists are following the same path as Mao,Pol Pot, and Stalin.. Control if the means of production to the point of starvation of the masses. Stalin and Lithuania come to mind.
Simple way to understand Covid, Global Warming, Energy Denial, and mass Food Starvation;
Apocalypse Now!
That is what they want. And that is what they are putting us through.
Nitrogen based fertilizer is fundamental to increased carbon capture. The more green leaves that sprout, the more carbon dioxide absorbed and the more oxygen generated along with more carbohydrates for human and livestock consumption. (They are called CARBO hydrates for a reason)
“Nitrogen based fertilizer is fundamental to increased carbon capture. The more green leaves that sprout,…”
Yes but: The Environmentalists claim that fertilizer is bad because it uses natural gas to produce, and the water runoff from nitrogen-fertilized farms causes problems for the natural ecosystems.
The first one is a canard (climate change). The second is true, but it is the price to pay for feeding mankind. So the depopulationists want to decimate the number of people that need to eat.
Witness the Dutch now.
Back when customers furrow or flood irrigated, many used nitrogen fixing cover crops between the vines or trees to limit weed growth and fix nitrogen into the soil for fertilizer. Dynamics changed somewhat when drip irrigation became more prevalent.
However, chemistry loomed large in my early years when working for the ag chemical companies tasked with soil reclamation, essentially turning worthless soil in a prime growing region into productive land. Nitrogen and sulfuric acid loomed large in that era. Much of my work was on the compressors and pumps that moved the chemical gases and fluids at the production facilities.
With all that land put into production, then we moved on to the next problem, notwithstanding the environmental conflicts, water. It’s kinda hard to grow stuff in a vertable desert without water. I can drive a few miles out to the alkali flats that have never been reclaimed and see what the valley was largely like firsthand even today. IDK, nature may reclaim it the way things are going.
Soda, almond milk etc are HUGE luxuries when comparing the vast fresh water use to create them.
🙏🏻🙏🏻😥😥
The COVID SNAP benefits of 95 bucks a month will expire in a lot of entitlement states in Feb/Mar. In many states it has already expired. The “redish” states are Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, South Carolina, Tennessee and Wyoming.
Notice who will be cut off, and that will no doubt be news to them.
That’s just going to be more pressure for potential “food riots” or “mostly peaceful crimes” in blue hives. 95 bucks might not seem much to some, but those on the margin will go right off a cliff.
Top off your pantry and ammo box.
Get your survival garden supplies – seeds, growing medium, peat pots, fertilizer, insect control and canning lids. I’m in Zone 7a and with just two weeks to go until starting early vegetables indoors, time is a wasting. Friggin Romaine lettuce is $3.75 for a large head…baby spinach is $6 per pound… cabbage is $3.50 for a head.
Yes!
And for those who don’t know, you can buy the living lettuce, use the leaves and plant the root base. It will grow back.
I have tried that twice. They didn’t grow new leaves; the plant base just rotted and died.
Start off in a saucer of water for about 2 weeks until it develops 1″ roots, then plant it. Works for celery, head lettuce, scallions, leeks and rhubarb. Probably other things too, but these are the few I have had no issues with.
Where I live in Oregon, kale is very robust and I leave it out on the porch in containers which get rained on and clip off stalks when wanting some greens. It started with some seeds a neighbor gave me. It survived an extended period of absence and has been going fine ever since.
I dismantled the greenhouse in CA and need to reassemble it in OR for any semblance of crop production to occur in the relatively short growing season there. Thanks for the tips; it’s a matter of matching the crops to the climate. Coastal rain forest is very different from irrigated desert.
“Matching the crops to the climate”
I agree 100%. I’m planting highbush blueberries this year because they do well in my area.
You probably cut the leaves off too short. The central core has to remain undamaged, only take the outside 2/3 of the leaf, and keep the roots hydrated, during the one day it’s at your house before you plant it in a pot.
Well, if we don’t grow our own lettuce, we’ll be eating mRNA lettuce in the future.
I’m in zone 9a. I’ve started my seeds 2 weeks ago, ready to plant at the end of February. I’m adding 10 more citrus, avocado and pomegranate trees, and I’m ready to go. Chickens will arrive in March.
Don’t forget the herb garden!
My herbs are in pots inside for the winter, they are very happy and warm 😊
Yes, for those of us who qualify for very little SNAP, the pandemic benefit has been quite a windfall. The key has been to eat frugally and use the pandemic benefit to lay in a food pantry.
I’ve done that across two buildings in the forest where everything stays cool and dry. Nothing earth shattering, little different from what my grandparents did on the ranch in the root cellar and smokehouse during the Depression. Main difference is they produced all their own food from cows to pigs to chickens to crops to hunting, fishing, etc.
Kinda sad that we’re looking at similar coping methods to the Depression era. We’ll make it. Humans adapt. Our faith will hold us in good stead.
Hard times make hard men. Bravo on your rewards from frugal decisions. My grandfather used to say he learned how to live like a king on just pennies through the Depression.
The famine will hit the cities 1st, & the hardest. The chickens & the eggs will last a little while, but the starvation-mad marauders will come out of those cities and take them (and everything else) from the rural dwellers.
Yet there is still hope for anyone – 2 Chron 7:14
They might roll through the cities without much resistance, but they will get dropped in the rural counties.
Don’t count on it. This is a Satanic juggernaut.
Only if you get organized.
Yes. And most won’t get very far in any case. When was the last time you saw a lardass walk a mile?
Most modern family owned farms only produce one or two products. There are a few small farms that are self sustaining like the Amish but even these are partially dependent on outside products. Backyard chickens need feed.
Small farms need fuel and fertilizer. Not sustainable long term. The crash of food production will be a calamity of unknown proportions.
Backyard chickens do just fine with bugs and greens. You do not need feed, except if you have cold winters where there’s no grass and no bugs.
Consider this: When the food shortages really hit, “officials” will start going door to door “requesting” all the food you have stockpiled so they can distribute it “fairly” to all those who did not plan for the future and it will become a crime to refuse. It’s not going to be enough to HAVE the stuff. You’re going to have to have a place to hide it, at least while it lasts.
That is exactly what happened in Ukraine in the the 1920s.
Farmers resisted forced collectivization. The Soviets used the Red Army to confiscate harvested crops. Millions died of starvation.
Can it happen here? I pray that it doesn’t but I hold out little hope the way things are going.
Little children would glean the wasted produce in the fields after the armies went through and sneak the food back to their families. Can you imagine sending a small child out on a dangerous food collection mission? History shows us that people did that.
The Bolsheviks also took the seeds so the people could not replant. Sadistic behavior and seems like
the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Nah. They’ll just send their ANTIFA “agents” your way to loot and then raze your place to the ground. Think about it.
I doubt it. ANTIFA in a rural setting would drop faster than Deer!
Yep. People need to plan for this. Above the ceiling, a false wall in the basement or closet, inside box springs. A root cellar with a buried entrance. Or get more creative.
Schedule 40 (the thick stuff) 4″ diameter PVC plumbing pipes (unconnected to any plumbing) look innocuous but hold lots of stuff.
When people are affected by food shortages followed by rationing and more government control and created crisis diversions, all part of the reset, will they get their heads out of the sand and realize the government isn’t going to save you. They are the enemy.
Stock up.
Unless we turn to God for true sustenance, we will be gaslighted into oblivion by Lucifer.
This is a huge issue. Thank you Tucker, for staying on it. Every egg section in the grocery shelves in and around Yardley, Pa., have shrunk by a half while prices have doubled or tripled. People just go with it. The only complaints I hear about are cable or internet service disruptions. Can’t win an insurrection with bums like these.
Anytime I hear price complaints in the store I say “That’s what people get when they vote for democraps. People never seem to learn.” I either get ignored with dirty looks or agreement with more political discussions.
I get snooty looks with remarks like “I hate people like that” as I walk away.
I too have experienced that. Well, those who make those sort of remarks ARE the party of hate and self-righteousness.
My reply when I hear any negative comments, at least we don’t any more mean tweets!
Me too! I let em know they voted for it.
I’ve discovered a better way of responding. I say, “I’m never voting Democrat again.” (Even though I never did.) It doesn’t sound accusatory and doesn’t put people on the defensive. It makes me sound like I have buyer’s remorse. I’ve used that phrase several times, with positive results, most notably with 20-something cashiers at local stores. This week, one cashier responded, “I can’t disagree with that.”
Avoid being starved into submission. Have your beans, bullets and bandaids ready.
I don’t deny the facts here but the idea that China will continue to dominate is not factual. There are many other experts who understand China and say that China is much weaker than is being acknowledged. Peter Zeihan is one. He has done numerous interviews and videos.
Here is one from just twelve hours ago on the collapse of China.
Also, during the Trump administration, China came close to collapse. Manufacturing started to return to America. It was an astonishingly fast turnaround, and the mood was very optimistic.
Truly, all it would take to collapse China’s economy is for the whole world to stop buying what it makes.
The MSM are not “curious” about this for exactly the same reason they are not “curious” about election fraud when a MAGA Republican (hi Kari!) has been cheated, or “curious” about why the Rule of Law no longer applies to any Democrat who commits treason, perjury, or even murder (Covid1984). We don’t need to ask questions anymore about who the MSM really are, Tucker. Everyone knows who they obey, on his black throne way, way down under.
We are the world, we are the chi…. Never mind. Eliminate the surplus population. Bah, humbug! \s
Yep! Where is Geldof and Bono? Where is stop the war?
The US grows an abundance of food so we can export it to countries who need it.
Because of the “build back better” green policies, these people in other countries
will starve to death. In the US, these policies will lead to a severe depression because
people will not be able to do more than pay for their family existence, if that. I expect
massive retail store closings when this hits. Something most of us in our lifetimes
have not seen before.
As an aside, I was in Pottery Barn store getting a rug sample to take home to see if
it worked in my dining room. The person assisting me made a point to ask me if I
would come back in the store to order. If I ordered it online, the retail store would
not get credit. The bean counters running the corporate office, are shutting down
retail stores because people are only ordering online.
At this point I do not think this is about climate change, etc.
I think it is a purposeful program to reduce the population.
I also think that is/was the goal of Covid and the vaccine.
These leaders are evil.
Biden talks about lack of food but no action. Stop growing corn for Ethanol, grow corn for food.
What does he care? He has his ice cream every day, that’s all that counts to him.
Didn’t Obama consume 3 pies per day? Nasty little grifters!
Ask your congressperson about what is going on. For months my rep Jim McGovern has has been pushing local farming. I will have to see. I stopped taking the government’s word on anything in 2020, and will hold each and everyone of them accountable.
I don’t know who makes me the angriest………. the elite who lies and manipulates or the sheeple to are culpably ignorant/native that is lazy enough to be manipulated. Please God, awaken the people who want to be “…left alone..” in their ‘comfy’ lives.
Verified story: Family feeds their layers Tractor Supply (Producer’s Pride) feed–>they stopped laying eggs by Nov 22, all of them, for 3 weeks, then food was suspected.
Family switched to a to Rural King brand–>the hens started laying within a week.
Then by mistake, the next time the feeders needed refill, one of the tenders used the Tractors Supply brand again–>the chickens stopped laying eggs within a week.
The family removed the Tractor Supply feed and replaced it with a mixture of food they prepared in their kitchen since they ran out of Rural King’s feed–>The hens restarted to lay eggs again.
Finally, they got more Rural King feed and the hens continue to lay eggs.
What is going on with Tractor Supply’s feed? I am not returning to that store for any reason until this is clarified (without bogus cover up stories).
What’s going on with Purina foods? Not the first issue with Producer’s Pride –
https://nwdistrict.ifas.ufl.edu/phag/2019/01/18/purina-recalls-producers-pride-cattle-cubes-from-florida-tractor-supply-stores/
Tractor Supply food is supplied by several large conglomerates. I wouldn’t enter one of their stores. There are other options.
Who died and made these people God?
Nobody. Yaweh is going to teach them a thing or two very soon.
I am going to brand a new chicken and swine feed. I am going to call the chicken feed Gates scratch, and the swine feed Schwab nuggets!
I have a couple of thoughts:
The first one is, if we’re supposedly in the grip of a terrible “bird flu”, why then are we NOT seeing dead birds laying around everywhere like we were 15 or 20 years ago during the real outbreak we had? I live in the Mojave desert, and there were quite a few dead birds then. Why not now?
How did we allow these kind of people to take control?
And do they imagine that they will escape God’s wrath for what they’ve done? I know the answer to that one, they don’t believe in God. They will, though. Every knee shall bow, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
The only dead birds i see are from the wind turbines! Ya know the ones that produce 0.01% energy that are nothing more than eye sores on the lanscape that you and I pay for.
Just like the wufroo. They know the average low info citizens are mushrooms so they feed them BS.
You’re right. Phil.2:9-11-“Therefore God has highly exalted him and given him a name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.” I can’t wait. I try to picture how many people this verse encompasses and my brain just can’t do it but it will be something else when it happens for sure!
When those bugs hit my windshield I say thank god for windshields.
The logic is if people are hungry enough they will eat bugs.
0bama is absolutely hellbent on every American taking a bite of the sht sandwich he has made for us.
Distance yourself as much from government and all things government related, even food. For those with chickens? They are not picky eaters. Go to the bait store and buy some worms and work them into a part of the yard and let them multiply. Chicken feed. Leftovers and food clippings? Give it the chickens. Chicken feed. And of course free ranging. You can also control what they’re eating there. We have to take control of our own lives again, starting in the backyard. Buy a deep freezer while you still can. Stop buying meat at the Supermarkets and order a half or quarter from a local butcher. Learn to garden. Find out when and wear local farmers’ markets are. Learn to can. Stop eating processed foods. Chickens aren’t the only thing they’re poisoning.
Evil abounds, from the committee of 300 who want to run what is left of the world after they refashion it to their will, to the mouth of the marionette at 1600.
The meek will inherit the earth. Lean on that while we are buffeted from every side. Meekness doesn’t include cowardice. Jesus must first come in fire to cleanse us.
And don’t forget the oft overlooked chemtrails!!! To poison us AND the ground we use in which to plant crops. Why has this not been stopped?? I have seen for a few years. Seemed to slow down while DJT was in office, but under bye-den has accelerated. Most do NOT notice.
If you will visit this group on Telegram, which is growing significantly, you will see evidence.
@SpookdBlogWeatherWeaponization
I’ve been watching the checkerboard skies here in NE Ohio for years. At first I was horrified at the pictures that people all over the world were posting. Then I started reading about them and not looking at the pictures so much because really, I couldn’t sleep without thinking about what I was seeing and I was so angry that anyone would do this. I’m 72 and I know this will seem unbelievable to younger people but the skies when I was young used to be almost as blue as the blue tarps used for covering things. Think about that–these maniacs have changed the color of the sky. There is a ton of stuff they are already sending up there-check out Geoengineering Watch.
Yes, the Geoengineering Watch site is excellent, and the spookd weather weaponization chat uses is a lot.

And no comments from Secretary Vilsak (https://www.usda.gov/our-agency/about-usda/our-secretary)
Unlike Mayor Pete, he’s staying off the radar.
Pointing out food shortages is racist.
I have found in my local gardening center – left over from last year – fertilizer, sprays, grow lights, gardening gloves, etc. at reduced prices. They are putting in new stock and clearing out old stock.
Get whatever fertilizer, soil additives, sprays, canning and freezing containers/lids, pickling ingredients that you will need for this year now. The last two years, there has been a run on these things in March, April, and May and stores have run out of some things.
I was in the local grocery store yesterday and thought I’d pick up a couple boxes of flats. They STILL didn’t have any.
This is the issue as always with our corrupt leaders, if we want to eat bugs we should have that ability. Growing up my brothers and I tried all kinds. EV’s if you want one be my guest many could benefit from them most cannot.
They want to profit off government laws and it just doesn’t work for obvious reasons.
I find our populace very civilized and not real motivated, the answer to all our problems is this. Globalists need to be the preferred meat, “globalists long pig” advertised as a delicacy and have many ways to prepare the meat. Then let nature take its course. World hunger would quickly disappear as well as our problems.
As of now, little white boys and girls are the preferred sex toys and they are discarded like trash once used by these demonic monsters.
I’ll be feasting on ”long pig” before I eat bugs on purpose
When evil proliferates it is like a plague that spreads through every house. It is despised by all and accepted by many. The only antidote is love and it is repulsive to both the perpetrator and the victim but is the only cure.
We are a fallen people destined for hell by our own purpose, and we can see why in these times.
We live in NW Montana with temps in low to negative single digits. Our 8 chickens put out 3 to 6 eggs daily. In addition to bag feed the wife mixes can corn, cooked rice and a touch of brewers yeast every morning. It’s a mad scramble at the feed trough. They seem pretty happy…….
food shortages ended empires where the people didn’t even get the pretense of a vote. why do these unworthies think they are immune from history? it’s not like putin needs them to elect him. whenever he and xi want to bring the hammer down they start talking and acting about settling international debts in gold. buying gold and silver futures and standing for delivery. refusing to sell any more gold to the west. buying what is available at the controlled prices.
certainly if taiwan, south korea, japan, et. al. are watching what is happening in ukraine they might just want to hedge their bets a little considering their near total dependence on the u.s. for protection from the chinese the u.s. is doing its all to provoke. those countries sure do have a whole lot of dollars and treasuries and not very much gold. probably time for a little portfolio reallocation.
The Elites are following their historical playbook. They want the masses to give them an excuse for using the tools they have created against them.
Liquidation is the goal.
Essential Nutrients Found Only in Meat

Frankly, I would go vegetarian before I would eat bugs for protein and then supplement what I was missing as best I could.
Cults control diets the same way. It makes members easier to control.
The Left hates humanity. Our government is the Left. Time to burn it all down starting with academia; big business; the foundations; the rich.
All of these issues point to one thing. Our government can’t kill us peasants off fast enough and it has nothing to do with “saving the planet” .
President Trump would do well to bring the coming global food disaster to the forefront of the political converstion like only he can do, and bang the drum daily.
One more arrow in his quiver to pierce the corrpt BBB crowd and their corporate, political and government enablers. Shove in in their face for all the world to understand that these criminal psycopaths need to go.
The trouble with that approach is that, as will be widely understood come primary season or November 2024, the biggest BBB atrocity is the clot shot and the associated murders. I don’t know if there’s a way for Trump not to be blamed for that, especially given his refusal to get off that train early, as soon as the disaster was evident. It’s an unfathomable and probably fatal error.
Talking about food shortages is racist.
I was idly looking at farm property online when I noticed something disturbing, at least, to me. Many large chicken farms were up for sale. I don’t know a whole lot about chicken farming on a large scale. I have about 30 on my farm. But, from what I’ve read, the big chicken (and turkey) conglomerates do a contract with the farmer. If the farmer doesn’t follow the contract to a T, they don’t get paid. Can you imagine thinking that being a chicken farmer was a good idea, then the corporation comes out and euthanizes all the chickens due to the “bird flu”. You’re out of luck. A couple years of that and you’re bankrupt. You had to buy their chics, their feed, follow their protocols, then boom – you’re ruined.
What I hope and pray for is that small farming (like this former city girl is trying to do) comes back into vogue in a huge way, and we go back to bartering for what we need. I try to avoid big Ag, big Pharma, big Government, personally.
I have been actively looking for a farmette for about 2 years that is closer to where I want to live for retirement. Yes, there are indeed quite a few chicken farm operations up for sale around the Delmarva peninsula, home of some big chicken corporations.
In my current rural area, we have a few co-ops and numerous roadside stands for eggs, honey, vegetables of all kinds. The lockdowns forced change out of necessity. People have definitely returned to home grown vegetables and home raised poultry. I was quite surprised by a new mixed domestic bird flock crossing the road back in the fall – ducks, geese, chickens all going from their coops/pens into a recently harvested field for their breakfast.
Joe Biden, in his dementia, says the quiet part out loud. Largest … voter fraud organization ever assembled; we’re going to create food shortages.
Black soldier fly larvae is great feed for chickens. I was looking into a setup for food waste and it was touted to process 5 lbs of food waste a day once the colony is established.
I’ve seen info on the fly larvae as well. It looked interesting.
“Putins war”? Surely you mean NATO and the west’s war on the Russian border that is interfering with a squabble between them and one of their former territories?
just how much Money Laundering and bio-weapons labs ARE going on there in Ukraine that the world is ready to start a nuclear war to cover up their crimes over?
Cause theres no way in HELL we are doing all this over a country that is regarded as the 3rd most CORRUPT country in the world…
i mean think about it, why didnt this happen when it was Georgia? or any OTHER former territory and why did we give them guarantee’s we wouldn’t encroach towards Russia with NATO and yet here we on ON THEIR BORDER.
THINK!
The Globalists serve Satan.
Humanity is the sacrifice they make to him.
Never forget:
they hate us and want us dead.
I just checked to see if there is more info about Tractor Feed on Natural News. There’s this article about the recent fire at a commercial egg farm, & saw this info in it:
“…“Two essential amino acids for egg production have been removed from commercial feed, and it has been done intentionally and on purpose – change your feed immediately,” one commenter wrote about the Tractor Supply chicken feed scandal.
“Use local feed mills. If you have to drive, then drive and buy bulk. Lysine and methionine.”…”
