Precious metals expert David Morgan expects half of the regional banks in the U.S. are going to collapse this year.
He made this prediction during an appearance on the “Health Ranger Report,” telling the Health Ranger Mike Adams that there are between 4,600 and 4,800 regional banks in the country. Citing another personality with a strong internet following, Morgan said he believes half of that number will fail before 2023 ends. In response, Adams said his prediction of half a dozen banks collapsing was more conservative than that of his guest.
“It’s made a lot of sense to me over the years, and that’s possible. They’re all interconnected,” said Morgan, also the publisher and CEO of The Morgan Report. As an example, he noted that a particular regional bank might be made up of 300 banks – including its total holdings. If these regional banks collapse, they would be consolidated under the aegis of a bigger bank that serves as the money center. (Related: Moody’s downgrades ratings of 11 regional banks as banking instability continues.)
“I’m not trying to scare anyone, but there’s a consolidation at hand. That’s very obvious. The powers that be want the regional banks to fail. They want to put it on the money center banks [so] they can consolidate their control,” remarked the precious metals expert.
“[This] means you’ve got your all-seeing eye looking over the entire world. And it’s one entity that controls everything – that’s their AI. That’s what they’re shooting for.”
Meanwhile, Adams mentioned that he feels sorry for the depositors when banks collapse. However, this feeling does not extend to the banksters, bank principals and shareholders – which he dubbed as crooks taking people’s money and throwing it into unprofitable instruments. According to the Brighteon.com and Natural News founder, many of the banks aren’t doing their business of paying attention to risk and watching over depositors’ money.
Morgan agreed, pointing out that capitalism has been blamed for the problem. However, the real culprit is crony capitalism that deprives people access to some financial exchanges merely for what they believe in. Real capitalism, Morgan said, comes with the right to succeed or fail.
Adams: Americans are going to be forced into CBDC
The Health Ranger remarked that Americans are now going to be forced into digital money, in the form of central bank digital currency (CBDC). He cited the Federal Reserve’s FedNow payment system as a precursor to this. The push for CBDCs has brought up some questions for Adams, especially in light of the failures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank.
According to him, he would rather trust a private peer-to-peer (P2P) cryptocurrency instead of a CBDC. If banking goes digital, Adams would much prefer a decentralized digital currency than a CBDC which is under constant government surveillance. Morgan seconded the Health Ranger’s preference for a P2P model and called on Americans to decentralize.
People have all been enslaved at one level or another because of the current system, said the precious metals expert. Thus, Americans need a system where they can take the power back. A P2P system gives this power back to the people in whatever form – crypto, silver coin or precious metals.

Safeguarding Your American Dream: Discover the Power of America First Healthcare
In today’s economy, healthcare costs remain one of the biggest threats to financial stability and family security. Americans work hard to build a better life, yet rising medical expenses can quickly erode savings, force tough trade-offs, and even push families toward debt or bankruptcy. Medical bills continue to rank as the leading cause of personal bankruptcy in the United States, with millions facing underinsurance or unexpected out-of-pocket burdens that no one plans for. Many turn to government-run marketplace plans under the Affordable Care Act, hoping for relief, only to discover that what appears affordable on paper often delivers higher long-term costs, limited real protection, and coverage that may not align with personal values or family needs.
America First Healthcare stands out as a private insurance agency dedicated to helping conservatives and families secure better coverage and better rates through customized, values-aligned options. By conducting free insurance reviews, the agency uncovers hidden gaps in existing policies and connects clients with private alternatives that emphasize personal responsibility, small-government principles, and genuine affordability—often delivering up to 20% savings while providing stronger protection for the American Dream.
The allure of marketplace plans is easy to understand: open enrollment periods, premium tax credits for many households, and the promise of “comprehensive” benefits mandated by law. Yet recent data reveals a different reality, especially after the expiration of enhanced premium subsidies at the end of 2025. Enrollment for 2026 dropped by more than one million people compared to the prior year, with many shifting to lower-tier bronze plans to keep monthly premiums manageable.
These plans feature significantly higher deductibles—averaging around $7,500 nationally—and greater cost-sharing requirements. Families who once paid modest amounts after subsidies now face average premium increases of $65 or more per month, even as they accept plans that leave them responsible for thousands in upfront costs before meaningful coverage kicks in.
High deductibles create a dangerous barrier to care. Studies show that people in such plans are less likely to seek timely treatment for chronic conditions, attend preventive screenings, or fill necessary prescriptions. A seemingly minor illness or injury can balloon into major expenses when patients delay care until problems worsen. For a family of four, a single hospitalization, cancer diagnosis, or unexpected surgery can easily exceed the deductible, triggering coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximums that still leave substantial bills. One recent analysis noted that some proposed changes could push family deductibles toward $31,000 in future years, further exposing households to financial risk.
Beyond the numbers, marketplace plans often carry structural limitations. Coverage for certain critical services may include waiting periods or narrower networks that restrict access to preferred doctors and specialists. Preventive care is required to be covered without cost-sharing, but everything else—lab work, imaging, specialist visits, or ongoing treatment—typically waits until the deductible is met. This reactive model contrasts sharply with the proactive, holistic approach many families prefer, especially those focused on wellness, early intervention, and maintaining health to enjoy life rather than merely reacting to illness.
Values alignment represents another growing concern. Government-influenced plans operate within a framework shaped by federal mandates and political priorities that may not reflect conservative principles of limited government, personal freedom, and ethical stewardship. Families who want to direct their healthcare dollars toward providers and benefits that honor traditional values sometimes find marketplace options feel misaligned, forcing a compromise between affordability and conviction.
Private alternatives, by contrast, offer year-round flexibility without the restrictions of open enrollment windows. Independent agents can shop across a wider range of carriers to design plans tailored to specific family needs—whether that means lower deductibles for frequent medical users, broader provider networks, or add-ons that support wellness and preventive services from day one. Clients frequently report more stable premiums that do not automatically escalate each year, along with genuine cost savings once the full picture of deductibles, copays, and coverage depth is considered.
Take the experience of real families who made the switch. Amanda C. shared that her new plan felt “way better” than what she had through the marketplace. Johnny Y. noted his previous coverage kept increasing annually until he found a more stable private option. Sofia S. expressed delight with her plan and began recommending it to others. These stories echo a common theme: when families move beyond one-size-fits-all government marketplaces, they often discover customized protection that better safeguards both health and finances.
Founder Jordan Sarmiento’s own journey underscores the stakes. In 2021, a six-day hospitalization generated a $95,000 bill. Under a well-structured private “Conservative Care Coverage” plan, his out-of-pocket responsibility would have been just $500. That stark difference illustrates how thoughtful planning and private options can prevent a medical event from becoming a financial catastrophe.
Practical steps exist for anyone questioning their current coverage. Start with a no-obligation review of your existing policy to identify gaps—high deductibles, limited critical-care benefits, or escalating premiums. Compare total projected costs (premiums plus potential out-of-pocket expenses) rather than monthly premiums alone. Consider family health history, anticipated needs, and lifestyle priorities. Private agencies can present side-by-side options that include stronger wellness incentives, broader access, and plans built on shared values of self-reliance and freedom.
In an era when healthcare inflation continues to outpace general cost-of-living increases, relying solely on marketplace solutions carries growing risk. Families who proactively explore private alternatives frequently achieve meaningful savings while gaining peace of mind that their coverage truly works when needed most.
America First Healthcare makes this exploration straightforward through its free review process. Families and individuals receive personalized guidance to close coverage holes, reduce unnecessary expenses, and secure plans that align with conservative principles—protecting wallets, health, and the American Dream without government overreach. Many who complete a review discover they can enjoy better benefits for less, often saving up to 20% while gaining the customization and stability that marketplace plans struggle to deliver.
Ultimately, protecting your family’s future requires looking beyond the marketing of “affordable” government options. By understanding the long-term costs hidden in high deductibles, shifting coverage tiers, and values mismatches, Americans can make empowered choices. Private, values-driven insurance offers a smarter path—one that rewards diligence, supports wellness, and delivers real security. For those ready to move beyond the limitations of traditional marketplace plans, a simple review can reveal options designed to serve families, not bureaucracies. The American Dream thrives when individuals and families retain control over their healthcare decisions, and thoughtful private coverage plays a vital role in making that possible.
