Here’s a quick internal note for our readers. The last few days have seen fewer news stories than usual. This was supposed to be a weekend thing but as it turns out the transition to focus more on The JD Rucker Show has taken a bit longer than expected.
Once we have the show itself properly situated, we will be going back to post a LOT more content here. In fact, we’ll be posting more content than we used to post because of additions to the team that will allow more dedicated news hounds. My intention was for this transition to be done by Monday morning but it looks like Tuesday is a more realistic goal.
As fort he show, we are going ALL-IN. We will have at least one and sometimes two full shows, plus we will be posting individual segments as news updates right here on this website. Combined with additional news and editorial content that you’re accustomed to seeing here and we should be one step closer to being among the best independent news outlets in America.
Our America First mentality will not change. We are still Christians, patriots, and conservatives and the content will reflect this. So don’t think things are going to be changing. Instead, we will simply be posting more and better of the same that you’ve grown accustomed to over the years.
Thank you for your patience. We’re almost ready. Stay tuned, stay frosty, and never fear.
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
