Inflationary pressures are building but the risk is almost unnoticed. No matter where you look, you should see clear signals that prices are on the rise. If you eat out, you’ve noticed. If you buy groceries, it’s obvious. When you fill up your tank, there’s no doubt.

It’s been a while since bank failures hit our headlines before this past week. But the norm in America has been one financial crisis every decade or so. What’s different this time is that it is happening when we have such a massive federal debt (almost $32 trillion of reported debt and climbing).

Here are some things to consider:

I have a new book coming out. Sadly, it helps make sense of all the disparate crises we’ve endured the past few years. It explains how things have changed so drastically in such a short time. To get a taste of what the book will cover, be sure to watch my Economic War Room episode #201. You can watch here

There is good news. Once we recognize the plan, we can respond. It is not too late. And the forthcoming book will have an Action Plan to respond.

If I were writing an advertisement to sell a newsletter subscription, I’d hype the “Founder’s Secret” idea. You’d read it and be invited to watch a 30-minute video that was one long, high-pressure push to get you to subscribe to an expensive newsletter. Then, there would be some gimmick that would barely make sense in the newsletter, but by then it would be too late.

You have been blasted with a media narrative which does have some ring of truth. But it isn’t the whole truth and what you may have missed is a threat to your future, your finances, and also to your Liberty. By the way, I’ve been warning about what we are watching unfold for quite some time. In 2013, I authored the cover story for The Counter Terrorist Magazine. It’s turned out to have been frighteningly accurate.

There was a monumental political statement this week from voters. The far left should have gotten the message.

Never Forget!

And yet, we have forgotten, and we have been shamed into ignoring the important lessons of the tragedy of 20 years ago. The stain of our recent Afghanistan failure obscures the tremendous sacrifice that so many Americans have made over the past two decades.

As we close Memorial Day, it’s a time to reflect on the resilience of America. There is no doubt that we are under a double-barreled assault from enemies, foreign and domestic. And yet, based on the genius of the Founders, the blessings of God Almighty, and the sacrifice of patriots through the past couple of centuries, America is still standing.

The risk is that, unless we act to shore up the foundations, we will lose our resilience. President Reagan wisely told us:
