“They don’t prep half a trillion unless something behind the curtain is breaking.“

This lead story is the work of “echodatruth” on X.

I have coupled it with a video by two people who have a well-deserved reputation for knowing their stuff – in this case, particularly about silver – and then a closing list of 100 items worth perusing, because there are still dark days ahead of us.

It Looks Like The Last Gasps Of The Federal (NOT) Reserve

While Everyone’s Distracted… Most people have no idea what just happened.

On October 16th, 2025, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York quietly injected $8.35 BILLION into the financial system through something called a Repo Operation, and that’s just what they admitted publicly.

Nearly 80% of that was backed by mortgage-backed securities, not Treasuries. Translation: the banks are running out of cash, and they’re now pawning off their riskiest assets just to get short-term liquidity.

Let me break it down: The Repo Market is basically a virtual pawn shop for banks. They bring their “valuables” government bonds or mortgage-backed securities and the Fed gives them a quick cash loan overnight. The next day, they “repurchase” their collateral. That’s why it’s called a repurchase (repo) agreement.

Now here’s the problem When banks start pawning mortgage-backed securities instead of safe Treasuries, it means they’re desperate for cash. It’s like someone pawning their TV, their car, and then finally their wedding ring. And the Fed knows it.

That’s why they quietly announced a $491.65 BILLION Standing Repo Facility for later that same day — nearly half a trillion dollars in emergency overnight liquidity.

They don’t prep half a trillion unless something behind the curtain is breaking.

Meanwhile, what’s trending right now? Protests. Political drama. Manufactured headlines designed to divide and distract.

While the world argues, the monetary system is quietly unraveling in real time. This isn’t conspiracy. It’s public data straight from the Fed’s own website.

We’ve passed the point of no return.

You can’t print your way out of a debt-based system forever. You can’t keep pretending it’s fine when the repo window is catching fire again. There’s no “going back”, only forward.

And the future isn’t built on bailouts and backroom deals… It’s built on transparent, asset-backed, blockchain-based systems like Metal Blockchain and the XPR Network, where collateral and liquidity exist on-chain, not in secret.

While the world sleeps, those who know what they hold are preparing.

What if you don’t have or can’t afford to invest in silver or gold?

First, I’ll go back to basics, because there was a time when I first learned about the Deep State, and its shocking intention to literally kill off millions, if not billions, of people around the world.

After getting prepared as best I could for myself, like moving out of the city, I eventually started a business, The Portland Preparedness Center, in Portland, Oregon, and published this following list in a newsletter of the time. (And yes, I may get a small percentage for any sales but that doesn’t affect your price).

By the way, the business went bust because the Big Box stores got into the preparedness line while many preppers were getting ready for “something” to happen in 2012.

But even if you’ve already done a lot along preparedness lines, you’ll know for sure that the way the world is going to hell in a hand basket at the moment, so it’s worth checking this out in case there are any things you might still be wise to consider.

Some What Ifs.

Now if our banks go tits up and our current fiat (paper) money is replaced by a new version backed by gold, it seems to me that there will be a transition period.

Using the US as an example, but it could be the same in other countries as well, we might still be able to use our paper money as cash (but probably not our plastic cards) for a period of time.

Of course, the best scenario would be to have already stocked up enough on essentials to keep us going for some period of time, plus some other items that can be bartered.

I’d put tobacco in that category, along with cigarette papers. Both pipe and cigarette tobacco can be bought in 8oz and 1lb bags at most smoke shops. Butane lighters are quite cheap, and roll-your-own cigarette papers aren’t too expensive either. Other barter items could be toilet paper, lots of pasta and bags of rice.

Considering the reality that many big cities are now almost war zones in some respects, it’s important to consider the possibility of major power outages.

To cover that, I’d suggest as a minimum, a Coleman camp stove and propane bottles, as well as some handy buckets or containers for water.

All you have to do is think like a SQUIRREL, A BEAR, OR SOMETHING AS INTELLIGENT AS AN ANT.

sTOCK UP AHEAD OF THE HARD TIMES – STAY SAFE UNTIL SPRING…AND THEN COME THE NEXT GOLDEN DAYS OF SUMMER.

(SORRY ABOUT THE CASPS – NOT REALLy0.

Maybe I should have an old Remington typewriter somewhere, like I learned my two-finger typing on back in 1960….and I can type by candle light….or perhaps invest in a couple of quill pens…

All the best,

Hey.. 90% on this news list have been receiving the newsletter for free for several years.

My fair question is are you one of those who doesn’t value “free” stuff?

I know there are many on the free list who can’t afford to subscribe at one of the tiers, and those who do donate or pay a small recurring monthly amount, and the occasional voluntary one-time donation are what keeps this going for hundreds of others.

But if you’re just a freeloader, and you don’t value or even use what you learn, how about you unsubscribe?

Or maybe I should follow the example of many others, and produce special articles, such as this, for paying subscribers only, with maybe only a once-a-week newsletter for the free folk.

Anyway, think about it.
