Over the last few months, it has become blatantly clear that American beef and the ranchers that produce it are under attack on multiple fronts. Feed and equipment prices are skyrocketing faster than inflation dictates. The largest food producers are importing risky, cheaper beef from other nations. Fires and industrial accidents have plagued the industry at unprecedented rates. They’re now saying avian flu is spreading through entire herds of cattle.
Then, there’s the fact that cows have become the ultimate climate change boogeyman. Add in the border invasion, a new push to inject cattle with mRNA vaccines, and inexplicable regulations popping in quietly from Washington DC and it’s impossible to ignore that the American cattle industry is in the midst of a polycrisis.
“When we launched in 2022, we knew beef was going to be important to supply to Americans but we didn’t anticipate it would get this bad this quickly,” said JD Rucker, co-founder of Prepper All-Naturals (Promo Code “JDR” for 35% off). “I’m somewhat of a conspiracy theorist but even my wildest notions about the beef industry being under attack have been eclipse by the current reality.”
Prepper All-Naturals specializes in high-quality long-term storage steak cuts. Their Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and “Original Steak” products are shelf-stable for 25-years without the use of preservatives or antibiotics. The beef is cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and stored in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers so the steak cubes can retain both maximum flavor and nutrition.
“It’s obvious that the beef industry is under attack, but people often ask me why,” Rucker said. “What makes beef so special that it deserves so much emphasis?” […]

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
