After the Covid-19 pandemic and mainstream media’s neglect of the Hunter Biden Laptop From Hell story in 2020, people are starting to have conversations and ask questions. Some of the key questions include:
- Was this a manmade gain-of-function virus made intentionally to lower the world population?
- Was it released from a lab intentionally, and if so, who was responsible?
- Did American taxpayer dollars go into the development of this virus?
- Who profited off of the pandemic?
- Was burying the Hunter Biden laptop story election interference?
- Were governmental agencies involved in burying the Hunter Biden laptop story rather than actively investigating and prosecuting it?
- Who labeled the Hunter Biden laptop story “Russian disinformation,” which was knowingly an outright lie?
- If the public had known about this Laptop From Hell and its contents, would that have swung the 2020 General Election to Donald Trump?
Probably the most interesting and intriguing question is, “Was this the first attempt at Fifth Generation Warfare (5GW)?”
If you are not familiar with the term, “Fifth Generation Warfare,” most of us were not. While there is some disagreement as to the divisions of warfare over time, in general, the five generations of warfare can be broken down as follows:
First Generation – Refers to ancient and post-classical battles fought with massed manpower using a phalanx (men in columns and rows) with uniformed soldiers governed by the state. Swords, spears, bows with arrows, shields, and body armor were indicative of these battles.
Second Generation – This term was created by the U.S. Military in 1989. It marked the advent of the rifled musket and breech-loading weapons that used black powder or gunpowder. Rifled projectiles flew longer distances with greater accuracy to target than previous firearms.
Third Generation – Is said to be a period where facing your enemies in phalanx columns and rows gave way to trying to outmaneuver and flank your enemy on the battlefield for a greater tactical advantage. Speed, stealth, and surprise were often used to confuse and panic the enemy when they found themselves seemingly or really surrounded. This was less a generation of weaponry than a tactic.
Fourth Generation – This is a conflict where there is a blurring of the lines between war and politics, as well as combatants and civilians. The war in Vietnam might have been a good early example of this generation of warfare. Civilians caught up on the way would adapt to whichever armed personnel was occupying their villages at the moment, Viet Cong or American Military. Their end game was less about war and politics than simply working to stay alive. Terms that come out of this phase of warfare include guerrillas, terrorists, and rioters. Such players make it difficult for enemies to identify a focal point to deliver a conflict-ending blow.
Fifth Generation – Involves using non-kinetic military actions, which could use social engineering, misinformation, cyberattacks, artificial intelligence, and fully autonomous systems. Author Daniel Abbot wrote this generation war of “information and perception.” “Operation Mockingbird” refers to the CIA’s 1970’s involvement in journalism. The CIA is said to have bribed college students and legacy journalists, and reporters to write CIA versions of events. Then Senator Frank Church established the Church Committee to investigate ‘government operations and potential abuses.’ During this investigation, the CIA admitted its manipulation of the mainstream media.

This latest Fifth Generation of Warfare reminds us of a quote attributed to Nazi German on The Big Lie (German: Große Lüge):
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic, and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
This quote is often attributed to Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels. Still, the fact is, nobody is sure who said it though it is thought to have originated in the time of Nazi Germany due to when it first surfaced.
Given the Democrats of the left’s penchant for accusing the right of everything they actually do and are guilty of and the fact today’s American Democrats share socialism with the German Nazis of 70+ years ago, one must now have to consider the very real possibility is “The Big Lie” is that there was no election fraud in 2020!
If we look at just the two examples of misinformation (AKA LIES) during the pandemic and the Hunter Biden laptop, it is safe to say the American public is now engaged in Fifth Generation Warfare. When acting president Joe Biden threatens to come for your guns, now would be a good time to tell him to go to hell. It has been said, “The only thing protecting the First Amendment is the Second Amendment.” It has also been said, “Never, throughout the history of time, have those looking to confiscate guns been the good guys.”
Donald Trump is an American hero for exposing the Deep State as reality. Elon Musk is a new American hero for exposing America’s immersion in Fifth Generation Warfare by purchasing Twitter. He is pulling back the curtain to reveal the Wizard, and he is to be thanked and congratulated.

Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.




Donald Trump is the American hero president who locked down the population, spending trillions of dollars to keep them locked down and followed that with the release of unsafe and ineffective fake vaccines that damage the human body and immune systems.
But by all means, make him out to be the hero of the pandemic or something.
I have been saying the same thing for years, our country is being taken down everywhere you look, and the US Government is in on it.,
“Yes” to all questions asked.
Yet people are still funding these rogue foreign agents by paying taxes. Hit them in their pocket books, Shut em off!
Yes Trump performed tremendous service to the nation in exposing the fact that in the United States it is completely unaccountable and untouchable woke nazi govt functionaries and NOT be Congress or the President–let alone “The People.”
The best service he could perform now is to get out of the way and let someone competent to actually DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT take the baton. I mean Trump (god bless him) had four years and basically just let himself get played the entire time.
Right now that Florida governor is looking more and more like the leader we need.
