NC Renegades

The Israeli war has now become the nexus of WWIII. Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Syria and Yemen are lined up to escalate the conflict. How large a role will the United States play in the opening salvos is unknown since no one knows who is in charge of our country.

The catastrophic consequences of Hurricane Helene shows us how fragile our nation’s infrastructure has become under incompetent and greedy politicians. WNC’s roads, power, Internet and supply distribution have been destroyed.

Let’s consider what else is on our horizon:

1. Another tropical disturbance is forming in the Gulf of Mexico.
2. A dock strike may start October 1, 2024 immediately impacting the country.
3. China’s banks are collapsing.
4. Trump has survived two assassination attempts while five more are pending.
5. Voter fraud is being uncovered daily for the 2024 election and exposing the stolen election in 2020.
6. Our military is being sent to Cyprus for the impending Middle East conflict.
7. Gold is on track to be up 50% in one year. Or another way to view this is that the dollar has been devalued 50%.
8. ICE released over 435,000 migrants with criminal convictions into the country.
9. The October BRICS meeting could be the end of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.

Another October stock market crash also must be considered. Get your money out of the banks, stock up on supplies that you will use or barter and consider your how faith will be important in the coming trials.

The Biden administration has deliberately downgraded rural Internet reception for political reasons. Elon Musk’s Starlink service has been shut out of the process which now has a profound impact on the Western North Carolina natural disaster. Another $425 billion Biden loss that will now have an impact on people’s lives.

Here is the link for the power outages in North Carolina. Some areas will have no power for a month as the electrical infrastructure will need to be completely rebuilt once the roads are cleared and rebuilt. The cost to rebuild WNC will have an inflationary impact on construction costs throughout the country.

Biden’s stalled rural internet program ignites debate about exclusion of Musk’s Starlink

President Biden’s slow rollout of a $42.5 billion rural internet program has increased criticism of the administration’s decision to yank federal funding from Elon Musk’s Starlink broadband service, which proponents say could provide faster, cheaper internet access to areas with little or no connectivity.

Mr. Musk criticized the federal program in response to a Washington Times report detailing the yearslong process of administering the massive tranche of funds and connecting homes to the internet.

“Your tax dollars for nothing,” Mr. Musk posted on his social media site, X.

At the current pace of distributing the funds, high-speed internet connections to most of the rural areas intended to benefit from BEAD won’t be completed until 2030. The Commerce Department, which is in charge of the program, said none of the projects will begin until 2025 or 2026.

Mr. Musk’s SpaceX is excluded from the BEAD federal subsidies because the money is reserved for companies deploying fiber-optic cable, which the government views as a more proven technology than satellite connections.

During the Trump administration, SpaceX was on track to receive $885.5 million from a different federal program to provide internet to rural locations. The Democratic-led Federal Communications Commission canceled the SpaceX award in August 2022.
