It’s been a while since we’ve posted a story about a famous person testing positive for Covid-19 because Pandemic Panic Theater took a brief hiatus. But as they ramp up their “Election Variant” fearmongering and gaslighting ahead of 2024, we can expect a steady flow of stories popping up to drive their narrative.
The short straw was picked by First Lady Jill Biden this time. It’s her second Covid infection despite being “protected” by two jabs and two boosters. Biden’s 72-year-old wife, whose symptoms were described as mild, last had Covid in August of last year.
“This evening, the First Lady tested positive for COVID-19,” her communications director, Elizabeth Alexander, said in a statement. “She will remain at their home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.”
And…. Here it comes.

This tells us they’re deploying the latest scariant of Covid-19 for mass infection. Expect every few days for someone “newsworthy” to test positive in their efforts to normalize concern. But it won’t be the usual suspects like the CDC or corporate media who will truly be driving the narrative. It will be their useful idiots living and working among us who are their best tools.
Fear of Covid-19 seems to be an inherent quality. In other words, most who still feared it as late as 2022 will embrace the coming surge as a reason to reengage with their fears. They may not consciously like it, but unconsciously they are drawn to it like moths to a flame.
It’s fair to say that most Americans were concerned in the early days of 2020, especially with published lies about its potential fatality rate. But once more people were infected and the mostly healthy recovered quickly, concerns subsided in some. Fast forward through 2021 and into 2022 and a strong majority of Americans no longer feared the disease.
To subvert this lack of fear, we’re seeing Pandemic Panic Theater 2.0. My astute readers might believe it won’t work, that neither they nor most Americans will fall for it this time. I would argue two points. First, never underestimate your neighbor’s addiction to fear. Second and more importantly, the powers-that-be don’t need a majority to be fearful. They don’t even need a plurality. They simply need enough scared people to falsely justify the need for more lockdowns. If that’s just 5% of the population — and it will be more than that — then they will have the anecdotal terror necessary to pretend like lockdowns are necessary.
Today, we’re hearing a lot of people claiming they will not comply. I am hopeful that this is true and a huge chunk of America will stick to their guns on this one. If most roll over and allow themselves to be chastised into compliance, then I’m not being an alarmist when I say our nation will be lost.

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
