The world’s leading news aggregator always stays on top of the most important stories in the world. With over a billion monthly visitors to his web site at DrudgeReport.com, it’s why thousands of media organizations follow his every post. Though seemingly a private person, there is no doubt that Matt Drudge has the inside scoop on many goings on in Washington and around the country. With contacts in high places, it stands to reason that the man behind the largest news source on the planet might get a heads up about key developments every so often.

Yesterday, after having completely wiped his social media Twitter account clean recently, Matt Drudge posted his first message in months.

It’s a simple message and very much to the point, but for those following the news of failing Ebola containment protocols it’s terrifying.

Maybe Matt Drudge has gotten word of something that we’re not yet aware of just yet.

Or, perhaps, like any concerned citizen watching the Centers for Disease control botch the handling of Ebola, he sees the writing on the wall. The virus, as has been the case in Africa, will continue to spread.

(snip)

There’s no telling how many people Vinson or Nina Pham (Patient #2) came into contact with while they were infected or where those people are now.

Given these latest developments, Matt Drudge may be right on target with his recommendation to self-quarantine.

But is it time to do that now?

He can't let this turn into a raging explosion.

¡¡¡¡sí, él puede!!!! (Yes, he can!!!!)

Remember; never let a crisis go to waste.

And its corollary; never let an opportunity to create a crisis go to waste.

[DJ Taylor]

My personal nightmare is the thought of multiple ISIS suicide “bombers” crossing our southern border with backpacks containing thermos jugs of blood drained from West African Ebola casualties. Before these Jihadists greet their 72 virgins, they could easily contaminate millions of Americans by surreptitiously dribbling this contaminated blood while traveling on mass transportation in our major cities.

[Guenevere]

Thanks!..Appreciate it.

[DoughtyOne]

I pretty much subscribe to that too, but I do think there are limits. You scare the populace too much and you an overplay your hand.

[EBH]

Perhaps they go by the cover of ISIS...

[Vision]

Yes, it was “be sure to drink your ovaltine.”

[ROCKLOBSTER]

this is really all about stopping this in Africa.

Yes, he wants it stopped in Africa but "going viral" here.

[Kartographer]

Preppers’ PING!!

[petercooper]

You have a water pipe burst. You immediately shut of the main, and then worry about cleaning up. Not Obama. He has a pipe burst, and immediately starts cleaning up before shutting off the main. Brilliant!

[Kartographer]

It is your choice you can prep or you can stand around on a bridge waiting for FEMA to bring you a bottle of water, a MRE, a warm blanket and a kiss for your boo-boo and maybe you can even get your picture as you stand there on the national news.

The world is dry tinder just awaiting the right spark maybe mother nature has decided it is time to shuffle the deck.

So listen to what the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it. NIV Proverbs 22:3

Selco covers this in this article many times people just can not except that a breakdown is occurring even as they watch it happening before their eyes. Why don’t they realize it? It’s caused by a condition called ‘Normalcy Bias’ a mental state people enter when facing a disaster.

It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of governments to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred then it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.

A good article on ‘Normalcy Bias’ is on our own ChocChipCookies Blog The Survival Mom:

http://thesurvivalmom.com/2010/12/29/normalcy-bias/

You either prepare and stand on your own beholden to no one or you become dependent on others to provide your basic needs and become their ‘serf’. Me I don’t want to be beholden to anyone for providing what is needed for me and mine. I certainly don’t want to have to kiss some ‘gubberment’ third class bureaucratic to try and coax some help from them, I don’t want some ‘jack booted’ thug herding me in line and telling me where to stand, sit, eat or sleep. And last but not least I don’t want to be shut up in with a bunch of ‘zombies’ and have to worry about not only trying to get basic necessities but having to fight to keep what I manage to get.

Just getting started or an old hand you might find my Preparedness Manual helpful. You can download the manual at:

http://tomeaker.com/kart/Preparedness1j.pdf NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!

For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, cash (I myself have been putting up change for the past few years both for the metal content and the fact that using change places to make what purchases you can will move you down the the list of possible marks during shtf), tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.

As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”

“There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger. Underestimation can be fatal.”

[Califreak]

The scary thing about what you posted is that royally screwing things up is all they ever do.

[zeaal]

Our school district in the DFW Metroplex sent out the following late this afternoon: http://www.lisd.net/apps/news/show_news.jsp?REC_ID=409853&id=0

[DoughtyOne]

LOL, good point.

[Lazamataz]

Yes. But, I am so screwed.

NOW what?

[gunsequalfreedom]

What is needed to self quarantine?

[combat_boots]

Yes, he can. He wants martial law.

[SatinDoll]

Or maybe they’re members of ISIS caught coming over the southern border, since we’re not being told publicly about them, either.

[Veto!]

He can't let this turn into a raging explosion.

Don't give him too much credit. He has no clue how to prevent that.

[yorkiemom]

Rather the opposite of his recent message.

[yorkiemom]

Well, they are following the party line.

Yet another reason to homeschool.
