A Country on Edge
Since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, something has shifted in the air. It feels like there was a “before” and now there’s an “after.” Tension was already building, but now the unease is thick enough to cut. People are angry. People are tired. And I don’t see things trending in a good direction.
I’m not claiming to be a prophet, but I can read the signs. The economy is shaky, the housing market is insane, and inflation is eating people alive. Wages are up on paper, but the cost of living is through the roof. Folks are malcontent, and when enough people feel boxed in with no way out, sparks fly.
History Doesn’t Repeat, but It Rhymes
Looking back, wars and revolutions rarely had a single clear starting gun in the moment. Only in hindsight do historians point to “the shot heard round the world.” Right now, we might be living through the prelude to something bigger, and we won’t know what the spark was until after the fact.
That’s what worries me most—how close are we to seeing the next escalation? The cultural divide is real, and patience on both sides is wearing thin. The right has been remarkably restrained so far, but people only tolerate being demonized, taxed, and pushed so far before something breaks.
Why This Moment Feels So Dangerous
The Economy: Housing is a mess, mortgages are unaffordable, and homeowners are getting squeezed by skyrocketing taxes and insurance.
Inflation: A 2% cost-of-living raise doesn’t touch the reality of compounding price hikes. People feel poorer no matter what the numbers say.
Division: The left and right are farther apart than ever, and every news cycle pours gasoline on the fire.
The Wildcards: Veterans trained in violence, unstable individuals, and outright psychopaths are all part of society. Once political violence becomes normalized, there’s no capping it again.
All of this together is a recipe for escalation.
What You Can Do Right Now
I don’t say this to spread fear—I say it so you can act while there’s still time.
Avoid the Hot Zones – Big blue cities are already boiling over. If you live in one, have a plan to get out. Better yet, move if you can.
Bug Out Ready – If sparks fly, you don’t want to be trapped in the middle. Have a destination and a plan.
Stay Situationally Aware – Head on a swivel. Keep your awareness tuned up.
Carry – If you’re legally able, conceal carry consistently. Get your system dialed in so it’s second nature.
Travel Smart – If you’ve got trips planned to volatile areas, think twice. Vacations aren’t worth walking into a powder keg.
Closing Thoughts
I don’t know exactly where things are going, but I know it’s not good. The best advice I can give you is simple: be safe. Stay vigilant, keep prepping, and don’t get caught off guard.

What if your time to die could become the capstone of a life well-lived rather than a tragic ending? In this episode of the Christian Prepper podcast, Todd explores two contrasting perspectives on death through the biblical stories of Rachel and Isaac.
You'll discover the profound difference between dying in sorrow versus dying "full of days," and learn how your preparedness journey can become a legacy of impact that touches your family, friends, and community long after you're gone.
This episode challenges listeners to view their time to die not as an ending to fear, but as motivation to live with greater purpose and intentionality.
Whether you're new to preparedness or have been living this lifestyle for years, you'll gain fresh perspectives on death, legacy, and how your preparedness journey can become a blessing to others.

Episode 500 feels like a milestone—and it’s the perfect time to share the story of what built the Survival Punk philosophy. Prepping isn’t just something I read in a book or picked up from watching TV. It’s something forged in the fires of real life, hard lessons, and a stubborn streak of DIY that’s been with me from the start.

Join us as we delve into the unknown and unexplored aspects of the 9/11 attacks, revealing a conspiracy that has gone unnoticed by the general public. This video will take you on a journey to uncover the truth behind the events that transpired on that fateful day, exploring the mysteries and inconsistencies that have been overlooked or ignored. From surprising eyewitness accounts to shocking evidence, we'll examine the facts and separate them from fiction, shedding new light on one of the most pivotal moments in modern history. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, this video aims to challenge your perceptions and encourage a fresh perspective on the 9/11 conspiracy. So, if you're ready to have your mind opened to new possibilities and confront the unknown, then watch until the very end to discover the 9/11 conspiracy you never knew about.

For decades, the global economy has run on razor-thin margins. Factories don’t store parts, stores don’t store food, and warehouses only keep enough on hand to keep costs low. It’s called just-in-time delivery—and it works great until something breaks. When one link in the chain fails, the whole thing collapses faster than most people realize.

The Prepping Academy welcomes Forrest Garvin, founder of PrepperNet, Garvin Academy, and other entrepreneurial ventures that are countable. In today's episode, Forrest updates us on what he has been up to over the last year.  We also discuss the current happenings in  PrepperNet, where PrepperNet is heading in the future, and a general update on the status of Prepping 2025.
