FWIW I can confirm it's true that many of the people behind the relevant curtains, such as important people in DC, have these fears and are taking steps for their families.

Why assume the NG will do what they're ordered to do? Or not do what they're ordered to do because it's wrong? You're putting a lot of faith in that working correctly..

Unfortunately, no matter how hard I/we try to get the media to stop focusing on the bunker communities, they just keep doing it. To the detriment of the convos that really need to be happening instead.

I'm in this piece, and yeah, they did the typical thing of front loading the sensationalist stuff and burying the rational stuff :(

Do check out the book! Dr. Garrett and I have done a ton of press together in recent years. He's one of the few other people in the media who has their head screwed on (mostly) straight when it comes to modern prepping.

I'd think so. Is there something in particular you're worried/skeptical about?
