OK,the hard red winter wheat crop will be short of last year's, because of the western drought, but soft red and spring wheat yields won't be too bad. The US is still predicted to produce a 1,200,000,000 bushel wheat harvest this year.

Wheat futures were down substantially last week on the realization that things aren't too bad.

What about Barley? Here in Pennsyltucky Barley will be ready in early June. And wheat ripens about a month later; early July. As soon as the Barley is off and the straw is baled, they’ll plant some 90-day corn or maybe soybeans, and get 2 crops in one season. Some places in Delaware the Barley is already off and the corn or soybeans already planted. Can’t tell what they planted until it pops through the soil. Down there the 2nd crop is often sweet corn.

Then all hell breaks loose after they manage to steal the election again.
___________________________

Even if they lose, overall, many regulations are already in place to further their agenda. The bureaucracy is still in control federally and in many states/counties/cities.

It gets worse when they issue those debit cards for food and fuel. Incrementally, people become accustomed to being given allotments for commodities. First one is only limited by amount of credit. Next, come limits per person of each category. Some recipients are more favored over others, with mandated tribal preferences. Next, comes incentives with compliance equaling increased access. Gradually, compliance becomes the norm, while the demands narrow all individual choice.

Welcome to the Company Store. Here are your labor quotas and your social obligations. As for characteristics that equal less/more access, live with it. Or not.

I’m sure many will be just fine with this, since it will signal their own virtue while granting a bit of lost comfort. “It’s for the greater good. Don’t be selfish. It’s _only_....”

These are the people who will zealously monitor their family, friends and neighbors, especially when snitch bonuses are introduced.

East Germany and North Korea are the harbingers for the entire world. First eliminate/exclude the old, then the disabled or ill and the children, along with the babies, as has already happened. Target the non-BIPOC. It will get more draconian.

Comply or die. The kapos won’t care as long as they are rewarded. Later, they won’t care as long as others are treated more harshly. When all the untermenschen are eliminated, the kapos will be eliminated, as well.

Do you believe that?

Even if it’s true, there will still be shipping barriers exacerbated by the ever-increasing, but righteous, Forever Sanctions.

Solve the shipping problems and there will barriers to acceptance at ports of destination. Solve that roadblock and there will be distribution problems. Get it distributed and then there will be mandated rationing based on Social Credit.

They ever-so-efficient fascists have wargamed this and have a problem waiting for every solution.

There will be blood. Or at least whimpers.

Reading most of the comments of Freepers about farming is something akin to reading comments of 10 year old boys about sex.

I know a TON about farming. I used to play FarmTown on FaceBook!

Regardless of the condition of the country or Ukraine quagmire, the plan is to steal the election. I think “righteous and justifiable” anti Supreme Court violence in the streets, just like the blm riots operation in ‘20, will be the vehicle.

John Deere is having problems getting techs. My nephew in Georgia is a college educated engineer who worked at Deere and recently joined a private firm. They are swamped with desperate farmers who need equipment mods/repairs/upgrades. Probably 25% of customers are not getting serviced.

I bought a John Deere 920 commercial mower in October, and it was the last one with promises of maybe April for delivery of others. Didn’t happen. The mods I wanted on my 920 took 6 weeks to get the parts and a tech to install them. It has only gotten a little better, but still no end in sight.

Malevolence, without a doubt.

Demonic grade.

Maybe your ISP? I couldn’t post a link to that site on twitter.

“We can’t complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful. Visit our Help Center to learn more.”

Harmful to the narrative.

Hope and a plan is where we are as a family. Of course if I let the plan out I’d have to either vet, or nullify everyone I shared it with.

Government will accuse people of hoarding. Any sane individual would classify the plan as preparation.

I’m getting a 403 Forbidden error with a bunch of Cyrillic error message text I can’t read. This on both AT&T and Comcast, FWIW.

Laz, any ideas?

And just a few minutes later it is now working. But I have a screen cap of the 403 FWLIW, Matt and I weren’t making it up.

Weird.

Come to find out, it’s considered a Russia State supported outlet, according to wikipedia at least, for what that’s worth.

This is a pretty deep dive and duplicated on the other site; https://cynthiachung.substack.com/p/sleepwalking-into-fascism-why-cianatos

I’m not going to pretend I’m 100% sure of either of the two opposing ‘truths’. I just want to be able to access both but it seems this is a one way narrative, much like COVID.

So who am I to believe? The same MSM that lied for two years about COVID, Ivermectin, HCQ and lied for 5 years before that about Trump being a Russian asset or some alternative sources?
