With food shortages hitting, patriots prepare themselves and their families with long-term storage food. We recommend THREE options.
Don’t get confused by headlines about tremendous bipartisan support for the First Step Act, the criminal justice reform legislation that was passed by the Senate today. Yes, it is overwhelmingly liked by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle as well as the President, but there’s are two very important agendas surrounding the bill that should make citizens squirm.
First, it’s important to note that a small handful of those who are promoting the bill, including Senators Mike Lee (R-UT) and Bernie Sanders (I-VT), have righteous intentions. These intentions may be a bit misguided and may have produced an end result that missed wildly on its stated goals, but their hearts are in the right place. This component of bipartisanship is good for America, especially considering how far apart these two are on the ideological spectrum. It’s a shame it was wasted on such an obtuse piece of legislation.
As for most of the other Republicans supporting the bill, their hearts are not in the right place. They’re being disingenuous. That’s why this bill had so much trouble for years getting to the floor in the first place. These disingenuous agendas weren’t in play then, but they are now.
The first one is financially driven. The right-leaning Koch political machine supports the bill, which means any Republicans who oppose it are not going to get the much-desired financial support that comes from the Kochs’ vast network of GOP donors. It’s as blatantly clear as any corporate lobby in DC. Most Republicans wouldn’t dare pass up on the free campaign money, or worse, risk getting a primary opponent as a result.
The second reason is based on the success of the bill itself. Those who might have voted against the bill saw the writing on the wall when the President backed it. There was nothing that could stop it from getting passed. Republican lawmakers who may be vulnerable to losing even more minority voters than they normally would could not go on record as opposing the bill or they’d risk having it thrown in their face during their next reelection campaign. The bill is highly favored by African-American and Hispanic voters, even if they’re Republicans. Since the bill was going to pass anyway, why fight it?
The reality of the bill is that, despite the President’s claims, it will not make the streets safer. It will not reduce drug trafficking. It will not address the real problems in the criminal justice system.
What it WILL do is open the floodgates way too much. That was the trade-off that was made to get it “bipartisan” support. Democrats on the far left were unwilling to support it early on because it didn’t release enough criminals. To get the support of people like Senator Kamala Harris, the scope needed to be expanded.
There are definitely perversions of justice that need to be addressed. Some people are in jail for ridiculously long terms because of unfortunate loopholes in the system. But this bill doesn’t just help those who are being incarcerated for too long. It helps those who probably should be incarcerated for longer. The concerns of people like Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Conservative Review’s Daniel Horowitz were not satisfied by the meek changes they made to it recently.
A report by the CBO tells a very different story from the one the President and the Koch brothers are pitching:
CBO: First Step Act will release dangerous criminals … and add to the deficit
The revelation from the CBO of how many convicts will leave federal prison early is jolting in its own right. Proponents of jailbreak, who support this and similar bills precisely because it lets violent and dangerous felons out of prison, suddenly get shy when there is public scrutiny on their legislation. They angrily contend that their bill is “reform” and won’t release anyone. Well, now the CBO confirms that is not the case. Imagine releasing the equivalent of 53,000 inmates in one year from the federal population, which houses only 10 percent of the nation’s prisoners, usually the worst career felons, such as cartel and gang members.
Nearly everyone who is supporting the bill has an incentive that is very different from the stated goal of reforming the criminal justice system. We aren’t seeing bipartisanship in action. We’re seeing special interest groups hitting both sides of the table.
Most “Conservative” News Outlets Are on the Big Tech Teat
Not long ago, conservative media was not beholden to anyone. Today, most sites are stuck on the Big Tech gravy train.
I’ll keep this short. The rise of Pandemic Panic Theater, massive voter fraud, and other “taboo” topics have neutered a majority of conservative news sites. You’ll notice they are very careful about what topics they tackle. Sure, they’ll attack Critical Race Theory, Antifa, and the Biden-Harris regime, but you won’t see them going after George Soros, Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, or the Deep State, among others.
The reason is simple. They are beholden to Big Tech, and Big Tech doesn’t allow certain topics to be discussed or they’ll cut you off. Far too many conservative news outlets rely on Google, Facebook, and Twitter for the bulk of their traffic. They depend on big checks from Google ads to keep the sites running. I don’t necessarily hold it against them. We all do what we need to do to survive. I just wish more would do like we have, which is to cut out Big Tech altogether.
We don’t get Google checks. We don’t have Facebook or Twitter buttons on our stories. We don’t have a YouTube Channel (banned), an Instagram profile (never made one), or a TikTok (no thanks, CCP). We’re not perfect, but we’re doing everything we can to not owe anything to anyone… other than our readers. We owe YOU the truth. We owe YOU the facts that others won’t reveal about topics that others won’t tackle. And we owe America, this great land that allows us to take hold of these opportunities.
Like I said, I don’t hold other conservative sites under too much scrutiny over their choices. It’s easy for people to point fingers when we’re not the ones paying their bills or supporting their families. I just wish there were more who would make the bold move. Today, only a handful of other major conservative news outlets have broken free from the Big Tech teat. Of course, we need help.
The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring proper news and opinions to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder.

Our network is currently comprised of nine sites:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Truth. Based. Media.
- Freedom First Network
- Based Underground
- Uncanceled News
- American Conservative Movement
- Conservative Playbook
- Our Gold Guy
We are also building partnerships with great conservative sites like The Liberty Daily and The Epoch Times to advance the message as loudly as possible, and we’re always looking for others with which to partner.
Some of our content is spread across multiple sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.
While donations are the best way to help, you can also support us by buying through our sponsors:
- MyPillow: Use promo code “NOQ” to get up to 66% off AND you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
- ZStack: Improve your immune system with the Z-Stack protocol or rejuvenate your body from vaccines or shedding with Z-DTox by Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
- OurGoldGuy: Tell them JD sent you in your request to buy gold and it will help us… AND (wait for it) you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
- MyPatriotSupply: Stock up on long-term food, survival gear, and other things that you’ll need just in case things don’t recover and we keep heading towards apocalypse.
We know we could make a lot more money if we sold out like so many “conservative” publications out there. You won’t find Google ads on our site for a reason. Yes, they’re lucrative, but I don’t like getting paid by minions of Satan (I don’t like Google very much if you couldn’t tell).
Time is short. As the world spirals towards The Great Reset, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.
Thank you and God Bless,
