Ex-ECB chief Mario Draghi has announced his resignation as prime minister of Italy. The country with ten parliamentary parties thus seems to be slipping into a government crisis once again. Italians are reacting with great jubilation and are already gathering in the country’s major squares. The WEF man, ex-Goldman Sachs banker, ex-ECB head and regular guest at Bilderberg meetings is considered one of the worst globalists in Europe.
After Boris Johnson, the next globalist among European leaders has been kicked out. Draghi submitted his resignation, but it was rejected by Italy’s President Sergio Mattarella – a weird reaction and one that seems to have been met with surprise internationally.
On the same day, Estonia’s Prime Minister Kaja Kallas also announced her resignation. However, this was only a formality. Kallas, who like Draghi is part of the WEF as well as a member of the Council of Women World Leaders, currently leads Estonia’s regime, which has been ruling without a parliamentary majority for more than a month. She was tasked with forming a new government for the EU and NATO member.
Draghi is known to be answerable to many international organisations and, according to critics, to the citizens and parliament least of all. Draghi is also a member of the ominous Rockefeller organisation “Group of 30”. It is said to have the features of a Masonic lodge and consists of international private bankers. These are the folks who are engineering our downfall via inflation to protect their assets.
The terminally stupid EU’s Brusselites together with their banker sponsors are largely responsible for the massive inflation and the irresponsible monetary policy of the ECB that has caused the euro to be at a record low. When it came to sanctions against Russia, too, the EU was the main driving force behind pestering and threatening member states, and as a result they have further aggravated the energy crisis. However, when it comes to solutions to the problems that have been caused, none are in sight.
And it seems that the Brusselionians (or maybe Brussels Sprouts?) have nothing better to do than to incessantly badger normal, functioning and popular governments by once again taking action against Hungary. Proceedings have been initiated against the state because of the regulations on the fuel price cap. And also because a radio station had its license revoked.
In addition, Prime Minister Orban is also facing complaints from the EU Commission before the European Court of Justice (ECJ), because the country does not want to bow to the EU’s gender ideology and has banned advertising for homosexual and transgender ideology in schools.
The sprouts in Brussels have decided to follow the Anglo-Saxon example by unleashing fluid gender terror onto us all.
The face of America in 2022!

Gas purchases to ensure security of supply have been talked about for months, but nothing has been done. Only suggestions such as heating to a maximum of 19 degrees and other austerity measures could be heard from the taxpayer-financed huge civil service and its princely politicians. And naturally, calls for inflation adjustment of their own salaries. For citizens who can no longer afford to live and do not even have the security of being able to heat their own homes winter, well, a giant middle-finger from our rulers.
While no viable solutions to the misery are coming out of Brussels; instead they are eager to sabotage the actions of countries that have shown initiative and do not wish to be part of the EU’s suicide pact. That is why Hungary has once again become the target.
Hungary was one of the first countries to decide a price cap for fuel while nonsensical sanctions against Russia were also rejected. As a result, Hungarians continue to pay 70 percent less for petrol or diesel than the citizens of EU member states. However, since this casts an even worse light on the inability or unwillingness of the grafting EU bigwigs, a reason was quickly found to bash Orban.
Cheap fuel allegedly violates the rules for the free movement of goods and people within the EU. Because especially in the current situation, according to the EU Commission, it is important that the internal market is punished harshly for their moronic policies. You can’t make this stuff up.
Two lawsuits have also been filed against the Orban administration. One deals with the gender agenda, one of the favorite topics of Brussels bureaucrats. Hungary had passed a law – which came into force in July 2021 – banning LGBTQ propaganda in children’s publications. Gay and transgender advertising was also banned. The law was part of the “pedophilia package”. It also banned the showing of pornographic or other content that encourages gender change or homosexuality under the age of 18. This also applies to advertisements and TV shows and thus also to corporations, which increasingly appear with a rainbow during Pride Month. Hungary argued that regulations on LGBTQ rights were a matter for individual countries. In addition, the law should protect children, not attack the community. The EU sees this as a clear case of discrimination and has filed a lawsuit.
The second lawsuit against Hungary concerns the broadcasting license for the radio station “Klubradio” after it expired. An automatic extension was not granted because it had committed six administrative offenses in the 7 years on air, including being convicted of defamation through anonymous phone calls.
In view of the fact that the EU has launched the largest censorship packages in Europe since 1945 with the Digital Service Act (DSA) and other measures, the EU’s fake concern about “media freedom” in this lawsuit is a joke.

Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.
