    Winter Survival Guide: Make Your Car Winter Storm Proof | Facts Matter

    In some areas, the snowstorm dumped several feet of snow in a matter of a couple of hours. This happened during the height of that year’s holiday travel season. The snowstorm knocked out power for more than 100,000 people, it paralyzed most emergency services, it effectively stopped travel in general, and when all was said and done, it left at least 47 people dead. Some of those people died as a result of heart complications, because they over-exerted themselves shoveling snow. However, a significant portion of the deaths were a result of motorists who were trapped in their vehicles for an extended period of time, in freezing temperatures, beyond the reach of any emergency service personnel. These people sadly, literally, froze to death in their cars and trucks. And we’ve seen this sad scenario play out many times before when a natural disaster strikes. People assume, sometimes fatally, that first responders will be able to make it to them and save them from a desperate situation. But unfortunately, that’s not always the case. Sometimes, you really have to be your own first responder. And so in that vein, since we’re heading into the winter season, here are some recommendations on things that you can do to protect yourself and your family.

    With Donald Trump now officially being the president-elect, the big question becomes: what will he actually do?

And so, let’s review some of the recent statements made by Trump, in order to map out the 8 executive actions that he’ll likely take immediately after assuming office.

    America Gains 1 Million Square Kilometers After 20-Year Exploration | Facts Matter

    You probably didn’t know it, but in December 2023, the United States got a lot bigger. Specifically, the United States added about 1 million square kilometers to its territory. That’s approximately 386,000 square miles—roughly the size of two Californias. Now, you would think that something like this would have been front-page news. But it actually went largely unnoticed—probably because the area in question isn’t a physical landmass. Instead, the United States gained a million square kilometers (nearly 400,000 square miles) of premium seafloor real estate. This expansion (just from a sheer size perspective) is the most significant enlargement of the United States since the year 1867, which is the year Alaska was purchased from Russia.

    How Social Security Will Run Dry by 2035 | Facts Matter

    The Social Security program is quickly approaching the point of insolvency. According to a new analysis by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, within the next nine years—if nothing changes—the average retired couple will see their benefits reduced by $16,500. At the same time, inflation over the next nine years will likely make goods and services significantly more expensive.

    The Coming Inflation Re-Acceleration–Regardless of Who Wins Election | Facts Matter

    We are just less than three weeks out from the 2024 election. Meaning that in about three and a half weeks—or however long it takes to count the votes—we’re going to know who will lead the country for the next four years. Regardless of who wins, however, there is a massive structural problem in America that is essentially colorblind. It’s not red, it’s not blue—so it doesn’t matter who’s in office. It’s that the design of the system will make it such that inflation will re-accelerate. The national debt currently sits at an astonishing $35 trillion. Looking at the national debt on a timeline, the increase over the last 100 years has been staggering, going from about $400 billion in 1923 to $35 trillion today—an increase of 8,750 percent. To give you some perspective on that, if the United States were to completely stop all of its spending and, instead, the federal government spent a million dollars every single minute to pay off this debt, it would never get paid off—because we’re currently paying $2 million dollars per minute just to service the interest on that debt. And so today, let’s go through the details of the situation, and why inflation is essentially the only answer to this problem—regardless of who’s in office.

    Florida County Goes ‘Constitutional’: Growing List of Counties Moving to Protect Bill of Rights | Facts Matter

    For a while now, there have been two competing trends in the United States. At the federal level, there has been more centralization, the introduction of more levels of bureaucracy, more attempts to chip away at the Second Amendment, and so on. At the same time, however, at the local level, many municipalities have been moving in the opposite direction, declaring themselves to be “constitutional counties” wherein any effort to infringe on the constitutional rights of their citizens will be treated as criminal activity—even if it’s done by state or federal officials.
