WASHINGTON (TNND) — Former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino warned his podcast listeners this week to take action and stock up on essentials like food and water as other countries have warned their citizens to stockpile amid threats of cyberattacks.

During his podcast, Bongino said that people should have 30 days of food and water ready in case of an emergency.

“There have been some warnings put out by the UK government and elsewhere about 30 days of preparedness and having food ready and power,” Bongino said, according to Mediaite.

One of his sponsors is, what appears to be, a survivalist company, or some such. Or so says a gun forum: This thread

Also, from the OP, this quote: "Last week, the United Kingdom advised its citizens to stockpile on water and food in its “Be Ready” campaign and prepare for the threat of “state-sponsored terrorism” by Russia or a climate crisis, according to The Guardian. They advised people to have supplies that last at least 72 hours."

This whole thing is just too general. Opinions?

[ConservativeMind]

Isn’t that just an ad for survival food manufacturers?

[DIRTYSECRET]

Does the Mormon church advocate the same thing? Heard it somewhere.

Thomas Sowell wrote there are no Mormons on welfare. “Ethnic America”.

[rktman]

Have ammo.

[PghBaldy]

They are telling military to have 90 day supply, IIRC. Would be funny if there is really no generalized threat, only that instructions to military spread like wildfire aka telephone game.

November on the Oregon coast.... A lack of water is not a problem.

[The Louiswu]

I think it's a good idea to have some food and water on hand in case of emergencies however, I feel that when the next major crisis arrives the death toll will be in the billions, the next fight will be for control of the planet and a reset of civilization.

I believe that the more important thing is to pray, pray and give glory to God Almighty and beg for His salvation, the forgiveness of your sins and to be covered in the blood of the lamb, Jesus.

Extra food and water are nice, but eternal life is the only thing.

[dayglored]

Enough food, water, and basic medical supplies for 72 hours is reasonable preparation.

For 30 days? 720 hours? That's outlandish, unless one has an offline bunker with independent power, refrigeration, and a well.

Speaking of power... a battery bank and inverter plus generator and gas is certainly possible, and PVs help depending on where you are. But that's not something you put together in a couple days.

[I want the USA back]

Does mean that the FBI knows that radical America haters are planning something very big?

[Pete Dovgan]

cyberattacks won’t stop food and water. I don’t see it.

Food and Water for 30 days, worldwide mean contamination. That suggest NUCLEAR event.

That means, especially with Iran having serious problems, that the Iranians are going to use thermonuclear weapons. Which the Democrats have promised they don’t have and never developed because of ‘Obama Deal’.

[Resolute Conservative]

That’s #1.

[PROCON]

I've always thought Bongino was a nutcase, this just reinforces it.

The same screeds came out during Obozo's regime too.

[woodbutcher1963]

Okay, I just watched a YT video this morning from Glen Beck reporting the same thing. Not only is the UK stating this, so are other EU countries.

I usually don’t watch Glen Beck, but watched this.
He also said you should have CASH on hand. Which I always do. Having enough water, canned food, AMMUNITION, medicine,
fuel to run a generator, etc.

All of this goes along with why billionaires are building bunkers on Hawaiian islands to be able to bug out to.

[dfwgator]

And clean underwear.

Food you can get anywhere. Even if you have to eat something you normally wouldn’t. I find it unfathomable that all shelves of everything will be gone due to cyber attacks.

Water on the other hand, for many people, is a resource provided by infrastructure that can be affected by cyber attacks. However, you can still get water from most anywhere, including nature. Rain water, streams, wells, etc. A shallow well can be dug in some places with higher water tables without great cost. The only trick water obtained from nature is to boil at the minimum, or have the ability to distill it is even better.

I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days

“Isn’t that just an ad for survival food manufacturers?”

And the food they sell is HORRIFIC - virtually all carbs. If you want food that will last long-term, start with canned food, that’s usually good for 10 years. Ideally cycle through it, but if not, just sample it once a year and if it gets crappy, then replace as needed.

[hillarys cankles]

My gut is telling me there is something coming. What that is im not sure. This isn’t just happening here in the US. It’s happening world wide. Govts are warning their populations to start preparing. For what? SMOD? CME? EMP? I’d bet my next paycheck something is coming soon.

[Shady]

Something is up. With the Military setting up Fortress we had better be serious about this. You all understand that “They” hate us and want us dead, don’t you?

[No.6]

If there’s a thing, I’d expect it to be related to the stuff DataRepublican has been turning up.

Even if quashed such an attempt may involve multi-pronged disruptions of fuel, electricity and/or transportation. In situations like that panic buying sets in and shelves go empty fast.

I’m not in for MRE-style food stocks but fuel, water, and easy staples like rice and other cookables, canned goods, etc. are nice to have around anyway.

For EU still stirring with Russia they’re going to have heating problems again, which is called “winter” but it’s a crisis when the heat doesn’t happen. Voile “climate crisis.”
