Chris Martenson's Most Recent Alert
This is an article with a 39 minute video (member access extends the video to 1 hour), posted July 22nd…
Extended ALERT: Oil Supply Collapse, Exponential Debt, and Why You Must Prepare Now
Introduction:
“With the Iran war spiraling and Russian refining capacity devastated, global oil and fuel supplies are plunging toward critical shortages. I am formally extending the ALERT: stock up now – time is running out.
…with the inability of Russia to defend its refineries and even its Wildberries warehouses (Russia’s Amazon equivalent) under devastating attacks, the economic fallout from just the loss of crude oil, natural gas, and refined oil products will range from severe to catastrophic, depending on how much longer the disruptions to supplies last.
I’ve been working on covering the Iran and Russian situations since I first issued an ALERT on February 27 – before the war with Iran had even begun [we issued an alert on this blog March 3rd, as soon as the Strait closed]. That’s 144 days straight without a break. Lots of content, and now it’s time to take a deeper dive into the reasons I am so alarmed at the direction events are currently taking.
I am hereby formally extending my war & economic ALERT for a third time. For subscribers, I will go into that in greater detail in the second part of this report. For everyone else, be sure that you are as stocked up as you can be with water, a year’s worth of stored food, home energy generation and batteries, the ability to defend your family and property, plenty of ammo, medicine, and anything else your particular circumstances require.”
Dr. Martenson was recently on the Tucker Carlson Show (he comes in at 36:45) and RT’s Sanchez Effect (he comes in at 17:30), discussing related topics. He has been featured on many other prominent alternative media platforms (particularly in the past several months), along with interviewing prominent experts on his own site.

The Real Problem With These Waves of Strikes Against Iran
*** HIGH LEVEL PREPAREDNESS ALERT ***
Due to the escalation of the wars with Iran and Russia and the resulting affects on energy supply, product supply and the economy….
WE ARE ISSUING A HIGH LEVEL ALERT!
This alert will remain in effect until such time as the situation abates and the concerns are alleviated. I will be posting supporting evidence later today and in the coming week, but do not wait to up your preps in whatever ways you can. One of the most important things right now is to stock up on supplies while they are still available and affordable. See our “15 Points” on the Home page and make your plan now!
Pray to the Holy Ghost for guidance always.
(If you have followed me for the past 17 years, you know I have never issued an alert like this and I do so with much prayer, and not lightly.)
Another Northeast Fireball Today
Meteor explodes off coast of Massachusetts
We’re trying to keep track of these events, have a look at this post from April 18th:
Is God Telling Us Something? Fireballs From the Sky....
We are told in Holy Scripture to be watchful and read the signs of the times:
“And in the morning: Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red and lowering. You know then how to discern the face of the sky: and can you not know the signs of the times?”
Matthew 16:3
“Be sober and watch: because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about seeking whom he may devour.”
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!
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)…

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
