O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) founder James O’Keefe has built a reputation over the years for being the gold standard among investigative journalists. His time with Project Veritas and now with OMG has delivered some of the most profound revelations and exposés in modern history.
This is why it took me aback when I read a message he posted on social media over the weekend. It wasn’t a bombshell secret he discovered or a rant about any of the various evil entities he has exposed. It was a warning intended for all of us. And as I noted in reply, it’s the most important message he’s ever delivered.
Evil is coming for all of us. Nobody is immune and nobody will come out unscathed.
In the fight against powers and principalities, the weak ones will bend a knee and lie in order to ‘survive.’
The strong ones with morals who adhere to truth and trust God will persevere.
This is the most important message you've ever delivered, which is saying a lot.

The Powers and Principalities that many of us often discuss were brought to light in Ephesians 6:12:
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The forces of the adversary are all around us, but they are most prevalent in the various halls of power across this planet. From high-ranking government officials to corporate CEOs to the mega-rich activists funding the globalist elite cabal, the minions of Satan are driving this world toward its fiery conclusion. This is both terrifying and wonderful to understand. It’s terrifying for those who are aware of our trajectory as a society, but it can be wonderful (and still sometimes terrifying) to Bible-believing Christians who appreciate the implications.
The end may be near, but we must never stop fighting the good fight.
My one extended conversation with O’Keefe was both infuriating and insightful. His reputation of being a bit prickly is well-deserved, but his mind is sharp and his devotion to the truth is unmatched. I’m more impressed now as he delivers this important message. Hopefully he and others will continue sharing the realities of this world because we need as many people as possible to wake up and realize the adversary is coming after us all.
There is only One who deserves our bent knee. The adversary and his minions deserve nothing from us but the sword.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
