Have the elites decided to erase our borders without telling the rest of us? Border Patrol agents are busing illegal aliens to the interior of the U.S., and Republican donors are developing large shantytowns for illegal aliens. Colony Ridge appears to be one such enclave. It’s about the size of Washington, D.C., and illegals there can borrow money for a piece of property directly from the developer, bypassing the usual requirements needed for a loan. Reportedly, the place is a dump and hosts plenty of crime. Who is behind it?
In other stories, the Texas Senate just acquitted Attorney General Ken Paxton of what looked to be purely politically motivated charges to begin with; one carbon-capture pipeline company just announced a major setback in South Dakota and part of Iowa; and scientists are giddy about a recent discovery on a planet called K2-18B.
Also on today’s show, The New American’s Alex Newman interviews Swedish academic Jacob Nordangard about the planned convergence of technology and digitalization into a dystopian “digital world brain” that could end up dominating the entire planet, and Steve Bonta and Gary Benoit continue their discussion of enumerated powers by diving into the few and specific powers delegated to the U.S. Congress by the U.S. Constitution.
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
