Daily Prepper Deal:

My Patriot Supply dropped their Christmas Bonus early with 25 dollars off every 200 you spend or 75 dollars off every 500, plus when you buy a four week emergency food kit you get two weeks completely free. Smart preppers are stacking the VESTA indoor heater at 25% off and loading up on mix and match number 10 cans with up to 25% savings while most Americans blow their Christmas budget on junk that loses value the moment they unwrap it. This is the gift of readiness when systems fail and grocery stores close, but you either lock in these Christmas discounts now or you pay full price in January while explaining why preparedness was not worth the investment.

Three Minute Prepper - Silver Hit $60

Silver hit $60 an ounce and analysts project it will reach $70 in first half of 2026. The price is up over 100 percent in 2025, outperforming gold. The AI boom is driving demand because giant data centers need solar power. A single 500 megawatt solar array requires 300 metric tons of silver. Hundreds of data centers are being built worldwide. BRICS nations are also driving prices higher. India is the world's second largest market for physical silver. Russia's central bank started buying silver for its State Reserve Fund. China imposed strict export restrictions on silver starting in 2026. Mines can only produce so much each year and it takes many years to get new ones running. About 50 percent of global silver production comes from Central and South America. Mexico produces more silver than anyone else. When central banks buy silver, when major nations restrict exports, and when industrial demand explodes from technology buildout, that confirms what preppers understood years ago. Physical assets win when paper systems fail. Previous issues explained central banks buying record gold while telling citizens fiat is sound. Now the same pattern repeats with silver as nations race to control physical supplies before scarcity hits.

DARPA launched a competition to develop small drones that can exceed current payload capacity. The Lift Challenge seeks drones weighing less than 55 pounds that can carry at least 110 pounds. That is a four to one payload ratio. Current drones operate at one to one. Prize pool is $6.5 million. Trials happen summer 2026. When military research agencies offer millions for specific drone capabilities with trials scheduled 18 months out, those are not theoretical research projects. Those are urgent requirements for conflicts the Pentagon knows are coming within that timeframe.

Western colleges including MIT, Oxford and McGill used taxpayer funds while collaborating with Chinese AI labs embedded in Beijing's security state. Over past five years they worked with labs tied to China's mass detention of Uyghurs and Ministry of Public Security. One lab is led by scientist from CETC, the conglomerate that built the platform used to detain Uyghurs. Joint papers focused on multi object tracking, facial recognition, and surveillance. U.S. defense research dollars underwrote work with Chinese labs that partner with military universities. When elite American universities use taxpayer money to build surveillance systems for adversary nations that run concentration camps, that is not academic collaboration. That is treason wrapped in research grants.

Israel launched new waves of huge airstrikes on Lebanon despite ceasefire in effect since November 2024. Strikes hit 20 to 30 kilometers north of border. Finance Minister said operations will continue until terror infrastructure is destroyed. He said it is likely Israel will need to return and operate there soon to preserve gains against Hezbollah. When nations ignore ceasefires and announce they will continue operations until enemies are finished, those agreements were never about peace. They were pauses for positioning before the next round.

Connect every signal. Silver explodes as nations race to control physical supplies. Military funds urgent drone development for conflicts 18 months out. Universities build enemy surveillance with tax dollars. Ceasefires get violated before ink dries. Previous issues explained institutions prepare for crises they publicly deny. Now every thread confirms it. Those who stacked physical silver before industrial scarcity, understood universities serve whoever funds them, and knew ceasefires without defeated enemies just create rearming windows were not being pessimistic. They were reading what powerful actors actually do rather than what they say.

Stay prepared,
