Cutting Through the Propaganda, Part 2

Clayton & Natali Morris Interview Chris Martenson

This is a 20 minute video, also featuring Peak Prosperity’s Chris Martenson.

I met Chris and his wife twice at Peak’s Annual Summit in New England. What an amazing group of people this event attracts. Chris and Evie were very gracious and I have developed a wonderful rapport with them. I sent them an Easter Mass card this year (they aren’t even Catholic) and they wrote back a handwritten “thank you” note, which was completely unexpected.

I have learned so much from Chris over the years and it is because of him that I threw myself into gardening 15 years ago (I had some experience, but this is when I got really serious), which led to teaching my son gardening (he’s better than me now) and also myself taking the Cornell Master Gardener Course…and other adventures. At that time, I had already started my first version of this blog, “futurecatholic.net,” 2 years earlier.

Mr. & Mrs. Morris interview Chris on their well-known show “Redacted,” about the Iran War and its fallout. The oil supply of the US is discussed…it’s not as much as you’ve been told…and we are in the process of actively depleting our strategic reserve.

As always, don’t worry, trust in God and do the best you can with what you have been given. Always be at peace. Always be joyful, as you receive Our Blessed Lord each week in Holy Communion. Pray the Rosary and seek to fulfill Our Lady of Fatima’s requests to mitigate this time of sorrows and bring souls back to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His Holy Church. We live for Heaven. Anything that happens on earth will look like a mere moment within eternity!

Cutting Through the Propaganda...

Mario Nawfal Interviews Chris Martenson

Here is a 13 minute video that explains the polycrises unfolding globally at this time. The USA is not immune to the results of it’s own actions in a war which probably does not meet the criteria for defensive attack taught by Holy Church. Furthermore, the USA and Israel had no right to visit such chaos and very potentially, famine, upon the world, due to lack of critical supply. Even furthermore, it is arguable that crimes against humanity/war crimes have been committed by America and Israel in Iran and Lebanon.

I am very impressed by this young man, Mario Nawfal, who has made a name for himself in alternative media. This is part of a longer interview with my friend Chris Martenson. Chris has been all over the alt media recently giving his expertise in economy and energy, which are precisely the issues before us.

The time is short. Act now to prepare, stocking up on supplies is most important right now…while things are still available and affordable…and while you still have the gas to get to the stores. A perfect storm is brewing of many things exploding at once. Do the math yourself, this isn’t rocket science. All the experts across the board are now saying the same things. The person on the street though, hasn’t seemed to have gotten the memo, BUT YOU HAVE!

…And don’t forget about our Preparedness Worksheet on the Home page:)

About This "UFO Disclosure" Thing...

It happened on a feast of Saint Michael!

Why is this significant? Remember when Roe vs. Wade was overturned on the feast of the Sacred Heart? God works in amazing ways to console us and give us signs. People don’t plan these things this way, it just happens, perhaps through Divine Providence.

Professor and author Daniel O’Connor is of the belief, along with many others who have studied “aliens,” Unidentified Flying Objects or Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, and related paranormal experiences…that these entities are real, and in fact, demonic manifestations. If this is true, it adds meaning to the fact that this initial date of “disclosure” took place on a feast of the greatest Archangel Michael, the very angel who thrust Satan into Hell with the words “Who is like unto God?” So we should not worry. Such things must happen at this time, but God is in control and everything He allows will work to His ultimate glory and the salvation of souls!

O’Connor has written 2 books on this topic, here is the shorter one below (we do not necessarily endorse all of the assertions in this book)…

Joe Blogs ~ Panic Spreads

From the notes:

“In today’s video, we take a deep dive into the growing economic fallout from the ongoing war in Iran — and this time the warnings are coming directly from major global companies. Quarterly earnings reports and shareholder updates are now revealing the real-world impact of soaring oil prices, supply chain disruption, rising shipping costs, inflation pressures, and operational chaos across multiple industries.

Airlines, automotive firms, chemical companies, consumer brands, logistics businesses and tech companies are all now reporting financial damage linked to the crisis in the Middle East. With oil prices remaining above $100 and no clear resolution in sight, the risks to the global economy continue to grow.

The big question now is whether this escalating situation could push the world towards recession.”

“Coming Food Crisis”...

…Predicted in Financial Times Essay (UK)

From Hunger Notes, excerpt…

The contraction in exports from the Middle East is not just a short-term increase in price for agricutural inputs; it risks actual production shortfalls in upcoming harvests.  Rising energy prices always raise food prices.

…sulfur, urrea, and ammonia from the Middle East are key components of farm inputs in China, India, Brazil, Morocco, Indonesia, Australia, the United States and other countries.

…The essay argues that this is a slow-moving yet systemic crisis as farmers plant less now, with resulting smaller harvests months ahead, leading to further increases in food prices later this year.  FT recognizes that poor countries will be hit harvest [hardest? both words work].  While wealthier countries will experience inflation, low income countries may face famine.

The Importance of California to Food Supply

From WisdomAnswer:

Is California the breadbasket of America?

California has often been referred to as the breadbasket of the world. Interestingly, California only possesses 4% of the total U.S. farms, but supplies the nation with the most agriculture products. California is the leading dairy state in the United States and is the leading producer of dairy products.

Where is the bread basket of California?

San Joaquin Valley. Additionally, the San Joaquin Valley in California has also been called the breadbasket of the world. The San Joaquin Valley produces the majority of the 12.8% of the United States’ agricultural production (as measured by dollar value) that comes from California.

Moral of the story: Bad for California = Bad for the United States

Last Middle East oil shipment reaches Southern California

From ABC 7 Los Angeles

Excerpt:

Gas prices are at a four-year high and experts are warning they could climb even higher.

The final oil tanker from the Middle East has docked in Long Beach, putting the region's supply chain under pressure. According to a report from the Los Angeles Times, it's the last shipment from the Strait of Hormuz to reach California.

After that tanker leaves, it could be weeks or potentially months before the next one arrives from the Middle East.

"The war in Iran and the closing of the Strait of Hormuz has actually been buffered by the fact that all of these tankers were at sea at the time that the Strait of Hormuz closed," said UCLA Professor Michael Ross. "So all of that supply has still been making its way to consumers. This is the last shipment of that supply that was keeping prices relatively stable."
