Be Prepared with Sat Phones & Backup Battery Power
Sponsored Post by the Satellite Phone Store
More than 1.5 million Verizon customers reported outages on Wednesday, Jan. 14, about impacting wireless voice and data services. Verizon confirmed the disruption and said “engineers are actively working to restore service,” acknowledging how critical reliable connectivity is for daily life. The outage has now been resolved, but not without a seven-hour service interruption.
Situations like this highlight a real issue: when cellular networks go down, phones simply stop working. That’s where satellite phones come in. Unlike cell phones, satellite phones operate independently of terrestrial towers, making them a reliable backup during outages, disasters or network failures.
At Sat123.com, we provide satellite phones and service plans designed to keep people connected when traditional networks fail. It’s not about replacing your cell phone — it’s about having a dependable backup when you need it most.
Sat123.com will be offering a free faraday satellite sleeve if customers call in to place their order this week only.
Also, don’t forget about the huge strain on power grids like the warning coming out of Pennsylvania this week. These power generation warnings are increasing all over America. So, you might want to think about getting backup battery power from Satellite Phone Store.
There is an 8-minute video to explain how easy it is to ride out any power outage, terror attack or extreme storm. You can get more information at Sat123.com and BeReady123.com. You can also call 855-980-5830 and talk to a real human.

I bought one of those Buddy portable indoor/ outdoor propane heaters after the last power outage,,, They are really nice,,, you can use a small regular camping propane bottle or get a hose with filter and run with a 20 lb big propane tank,,, It puts out heat like crazy,,,, They come in 2 sizes,,, make sure it’s the indoor safe version !!! Thanks Greg !!! ( I bought the Buddy 4000-9000 BTU version and I might buy the next size bigger ,,,,,, We had power out for almost a day and the house was down to 48 degrees,,, thank goodness the power came back on !!! ),,,,, Canadian Prepper ( Nate ) interviewed David Morgan today,,, was really good,,, Greg ,, hopefully you can get him and Bill H back on soon,,,!!! The local Gold / Silver shop has been super busy,, I think everyone knows the dollars value/ collapse is near !!!
People that have never bought Silver / Gold buying ,,,,Hopefully Discount Gold and Silver is busy and thanks for supporting Greg!!!
I see NATO sending troops to Greenland to shore up security with American made Hercules with transponders off ( ZeroHedge article tonight),,,,, all of the euro tards Germany France Norway and Sweden ,, led by the Danes,,,,,,,,,,, stock up on popcorn 🍿 everyone !!! Trump doesn’t comprehend losing Bigley,,,,Trump should pull all support for Ukraine,,,, then take Greenland however the MIC deems best,,,and get out of NATO and the UN ,,,, Let’s see how tough NATO is in Ukraine against Russia without US support,,,,,,, Vladamir will be licking his chops!!! We should then start trade with Russia and watch Europe collapse,,,,Trading with Russia would really cripple China,,,Hopefully someone with a brain can figure that out ( not L – graham crackers ),,,, Trading with Russia would boost the American economy and give strength to the dying dollar 💵 ,,, again not sure anyone smart enough to comprehend that or figure that out ,,,, ????
A US Strike on Iran is Imminent, this means a Retaliatory Strike by Iran against our US Power Grid is possible. Having Solar and Battery back-up power “Is Just Common Sense!!!
Katy,,, Iran might get attacked but we won’t,,, Only America can project power,,,,, America is still top dog,, China & Russia & Iran know it,,,,, we have plasma weapons and other things to deploy no one else knows about,,,,, even satellites I think could be capable of dropping nukes,,, and that is pretty much undetectable ,,, might be better than hypersonics for end game warfare or strategic hits with other satellite weapons,,, space has been weaponized ,,,,,,Katy Iranian Prince Reza Pahlavi calling for US surgical strikes to topple the bunch that wear sleeping bags on their heads inside Iran ,,,, I think it’s the end for the Mullahs ,,, end of the current Regime,,,Trump will get Greenland under the US Flag,,,, 🇺🇸 One thing with Trump once he makes his mind up no changing it,,,,and Greenland is incredibly strategic for 🇺🇸……….
Also,
Owning Physical Silver and some Cash (rather then Crypto and Electronic Credit Cards) is a smart choice during a Grid Take Down that will shut down ATM’s and the Banks!!
Katy,
Wells Fargo is Down – does this mean “Failure to Deliver” is IMMINENT!!
Bill Holter believes so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDW13QnEFgk&t=27s

Thanks, Brother Dan.

Very timely, Greg. Let those who have ears, hear.
Communication is essential. Electricity is essential.
Our forefathers were sturdy, stronger.
You need communication, power, water, food, protection, and trade goods unless you have everything you thing you need for the next decade.
I recommend AU, AG, alcohol, spices
Thanks Greg!
I was out on a bike ride yesterday when the verizon outages happened. My phone went into SOS mode and couldn’t send or receive calls . My wife’s phone however, was unaffected and she was less than 10 miles away. Interesting.
The issue was resolved early last evening.

Interim Venezuelan President HAS MEETING WITH CIA Director | TRENDING
The Hill Jan 16, 2026 CIA Director John Ratcliffe met with Venezuela’s interim President Delcy Rodríguez on Thursday in Caracas, the same day President Trump met with Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado at the White House.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujSESn5ew5Y
Ratcliffe, the most senior administration official to visit Venezuela since U.S. Army Special Forces captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, traveled to the Latin American country at Trump’s direction to “deliver the message that the United States looks forward to an improved working relationship,” a U.S. official told The Hill’s sister network NewsNation on Friday.

JAPAN SEIZES TAIWAN SILVER SHIPMENT | Security Threat
Créatures Surprenantes 37,357 views Jan 15, 2026
A Taiwan cargo ship carrying 3 million ounces of silver to China was seized by Japan in international waters. The charge: “strategic materials with military applications.”
Japan cited a new law nobody knew existed. Taiwan is trapped between their protector and their customer. China is deploying warships.
This is the third seizure in two weeks. 8.3 million ounces confiscated. $670 million in cargo. The trade is dead. 985 subscribers

When your ally becomes your blocker, the rules have changed.

Gale,
Japan (likely under US orders) Is Seizing Silver Cargo Ships heading to China and Is Confiscating the Silver – Does this mean the US Silver Supply Deficit can be closed with all the Silver Japan is Seizing from these China bound ships and therefore End of the Current Silver Rally?? Not Necessarily, because China can Simply Continue Ordering Silver (paying with US dollars they want to get rid of anyway) and then “Sink the Silver Cargo Ships” (to keep the Silver out of Japanese/US hands) and by buying Silver (delivered by land) “at Extremely Elevated Prices” to Continue Supplying their Solar, EV and AI Industries!!!

THEY PASSED IT: The New Banking Rule Begins Tonight. (Get Out)
At exactly 5 PM today, while banks across America closed their doors for the weekend, a new financial regulation quietly went into effect that fundamentally changes your access to your own money. This isn’t speculation or fear-mongering—this is documented policy that imposes strict withdrawal limits, extends suspicious activity definitions, and creates a framework for unprecedented capital controls. If you try to withdraw more than five hundred dollars from an ATM starting tonight, you’ll likely face immediate restrictions. If you attempt to move funds into cryptocurrency, gold, or silver, your account will be flagged and potentially frozen for thirty days. This comprehensive analysis breaks down exactly what happened, why it happened now, and what the historical precedents from Greece, Cyprus, and Lebanon tell us about what comes next. We examine the mathematical impossibility of fractional reserve banking during crisis conditions, the coordinated implementation of similar rules across the UK and Australia in the same week, and the connection between cash restrictions and the coming Central Bank Digital Currency infrastructure. Most importantly, we outline the strategic positioning options that remain available in this narrow window before restrictions tighten further. The pattern of denial, restriction, and freeze has played out across multiple countries and decades—and that pattern is now unfolding in real time. This is critical information that won’t appear on mainstream news channels, delivered in clear economic analysis without hype or exaggeration. Watch until the end to understand the timeline and your remaining options.

Please point to where this “law” passed. I just withdrew $2000 my daily limit to go to a trade show. I called the bank and was told that my limit resets 24 hr so I can get another $2K tomorrow.
Why do people like you push fear driving propaganda ?
As far as the Nazis regime in the Ukraine, if Putin was playing hard ball, he would have reduced the country infrastructure to ruble years ago.
WELLS FARGO DOWN: Direct Deposits “Missing” & Accounts Zeroed (Silver to $100) Jon CC Jan 16, 2026
Millions of Wells Fargo customers woke up this morning to a financial nightmare: Missing direct deposits and bank account balances showing “$0.00”. The outage reports spiked on DownDetector starting at 4:30 AM EST.
While the bank PR team claims this is a “Technical Glitch” with overnight processing, the timing suggests a deeper Liquidity Crisis. This is exactly how Northern Rock failed in 2008—delays, glitches, and then the doors closed.
If your money is digital, it can be deleted or frozen in seconds. This outage is a critical warning sign. The banking system is fragile, and “Counterparty Risk” is at an all-time high. This is why we are moving to physical Silver.
In this video, we analyze the real-time outage map, the missing billions in float, and why Silver is the only insurance against a digital banking collapse.

Greg, I think you would get more uptake if you wrapped this kind of thing into a weekend wrap-up. we all love to hear what you have to say about what’s going on.
Hi Chip,
Not sure where you are but this is a timely message for many. My neighbor has Verizon and couldn’t make a call for 2 days, I don’t know for sure the issue is totally fixed.

Only in America…

Just as there were people saying a civil war was not happening and spectators were picnicking near by at Bullrun.
It was not realized until later that it was the start of the 1st Civil War. I say 1st as the 2nd has started in MN. I am unsure what historians will say the actual start of the 2nd Civil War is but I assure you, it has started.
You have feral humans being inculcated for the last 40 years that America is bad, that they are owed special privileges and treatment for Democrats owning slaves in the South… slavery that ended 160 yrs ago. No American owes anyone anything.
Ok, how about this, any slave from the 1860s currently alive is owed a cool million dollars, non taxable. Not great great great great great great grandchildren… just those that were actually enslaved. But I digress…
The inculcation includes dehumanizing whitey to the point where feral humans rob, rape and murder us with wild abandon. They murder our infants, they rape and kill our elders and women. There is no rehabilitation for a person that can do this.
This 18 yo is a waste of Jehovah’s oxygen. She should be tried, and when convicted, there should be a televised public execution in short order. It should be a requirement of having a public broadcast license to carry this live and rebroadcast at least twice so that all Americans can see during normal evenings news.
https://www.breitbart.com/crime/2026/01/16/police-minnesota-childcare-worker-18-arrested-for-smothering-two-children-on-the-same-day-killing-one/
The war has started and is ongoing…
Anyone that doesn’t have the means to protect yourself and your family from the feral humans are going to be victims.
And feral, contrary to what many try to claim, is a condition, not a color… there are plenty of feral humans in all colors. A case can be made that certain demographics have a much higher % population wise. But there is a reason for stereotypes. Between the green haired weirdos, the illegals alien invaders and the feral humans… the demons have their foot soldiers , their useful idiots. And they are already at war with us.
There is no rehabilitation for these cretins and there is only 1 option that I see to deal with these enemies of mankind. Please let me know if you honestly think there is any other option besides putting these people in a gulag in the middle of nowhere surrounded by land mines and guards that are required to shoot the ner’do’wells if they go over the wire. Guards get a bonus for each on target round. Air drop food 1 a month and the tools for agriculture. They either work it out or die. But society will be safe from them.
How else can you deal with people that think there is nothing off the table to destroy America?
You have terrorist in black robes, subjugating justice. Terrorists posing as jurors are preventing the conviction of and protecting demonstrable criminals.
