Editor’s Note: As always, I appreciate Daisy Luther‘s take on these important subjects. She is one of the best resources on the internet for all-things-prepper. I’ve allowed her link to her gold sponsor to remain in the article, but know that they are not one of OUR gold sponsors. We vetted out nearly 30 gold companies and found the ones we consider to be America First. It’s noteworthy that we did not look into the one mentioned by Daisy below, so the good news is they haven’t been eliminate from our consideration! We simply haven’t gotten around to them. With that said, here’s Daisy…
The circus surrounding the arrest of former President Donald Trump may have been a perfectly timed distraction. Not only are our banks still in a state of collapse despite a brief government-funded reprieve. Not only is the advent CBDCs looming over us.
The world is rapidly dumping the dollar, and that’s a next-level economic disaster.
This article contains several videos with in-depth information about what you need to know.
What countries are dumping the dollar?
A lengthy list of countries are moving away from using the US dollar, which has long been the reserve currency of the world. The following countries are in the process of reducing their dependency on the dollar.
- Russia
- China
- Iran
- Brazil
- Argentina
- Saudi Arabia
- UAE
- India

This video has a detailed explanation of what’s going on.
The dollar crisis is rapidly unfolding.
Tim Poole suggested that the arrest of Trump was a distraction for the looming dollar collapse:
Robert Kiyosaki of Rich Dad fame is convinced that it’s over for the dollar and that people need to rapidly take steps to protect the money they currently have in banks. He assures us that the banking crisis is just beginning. This is a longer video but there’s a ton of valuable insight within.
How to protect yourself
I’ve written before about how to protect yourself in this situation.
- Stock up on tangible goods like food, medicine, tools, and other supplies you know you’ll need.
- Limit the amount of money you keep in each bank account.
- Consider investing in physical gold and silver to maintain the value of the extra money you have.
If you want a free consultation about how you would switch some of your savings into gold and silver, I strongly recommend ITM Trading. This is the company that I use, and I trust and strongly recommend them. I find that they are incredibly educational and there’s no pressure whatsoever to make a purchase. Go here to learn more and set up your free strategy session – just talk to them – there’s nothing to lose and a ton of knowledge to gain.
Peter Schiff also seems convinced that people are going to quickly move to cold as the system collapses around our ears.
What happens if we lose reserve currency status?
Former Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs for the U.S. Department of the Treasury Monica Crowley says that if the dollar loses its status we would rapidly face “catastrophic” consequences and the “implosion” of our economic system.
If oil begins to be traded in units other than the petrodollar, we face an almost immediate crisis. According to Crowley, “If that were to end, that would mean the end of the U.S. dollar.”
Emphasizing that the U.S. dollar having the world’s reserve currency status “has been a real privilege,” she expressed: “We’ve abused the privilege by wholly reckless monetary and fiscal policy for so many years, certainly over the last couple of years, which has really devalued the dollar.”
Crowley continued: “On top of that, now you do have this perfect storm of Biden’s weakness, his war on American domestic energy production, the Ukraine war … Because of all of these things, we’ve got America’s enemies, led by China, forming a new economic bloc.”
All of this is ramping up.
All the things mentioned in these videos have occurred over the past two weeks, while everyone was (justifiably) outraged or gleeful about the indictment of Trump. Last month we watched the banking system teetering on the brink of disaster. It’s not going to take more than a hard sneeze to send the entire thing crashing down.
What do you think?
Is the US dollar about to lose its status as the world’s reserve currency? Are we watching the end of the petrodollar? Can the banking system withstand it all? Was the arrest of Trump a distraction from a looming economic catastrophe?
Let’s discuss it in the comments.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
