The Black Horse

🌍 GLOBAL FOOD SECURITY SNAPSHOT (2025)

Global:
• 🌐 673 million people worldwide faced hunger in 2024 — about 8.2% of the world’s population.
• ⚠️ 295 million people across 53 countries suffered from acute food insecurity — the highest level in six years.
• 🍞 Elderly, children, and disabled populations are at the greatest risk due to limited income, mobility, and access to aid.

United States:
• 🇺🇸 Over 41 million Americans rely on SNAP (food stamps) monthly.
• 🏠 Millions are seeing delays or cuts in benefits while food prices stay high.
• 👶 Families, seniors, and people with disabilities are forced to choose between food, rent, utilities, or medicine.

Alabama:
• 🥫 11.5% of Alabama households can’t provide enough food for all members.
• 👧 In some counties, 1 in 4 children face food insecurity.
• 👵 Programs like the Elderly Simplified SNAP Application help seniors—but access is limited in rural areas.
• 🏛️ In Nov 2025, Gov. Kay Ivey released $2 million in state emergency funds to support food banks amid SNAP delays.
• 🚗 In rural counties like Chambers County, food aid exists but is scattered, irregular, and often out of reach.

Summary:
The hunger crisis isn’t just happening “over there.” It’s global. It’s national. It’s local. From children and seniors to people living with disabilities, millions are struggling to put food on the table while politics and policies delay relief.
Now is the time for communities, leaders, and neighbors to close the gap and make sure no one goes hungry.

The Red Horse
💰 War Spending vs. Human Well-Being Spending
• Global military expenditure reached about US $2.718 trillion in 2024.
• The United States alone spent roughly US $997 billion on its military in 2024—more than any other country.
• Meanwhile, the U.S. foreign aid (which includes humanitarian and development assistance) was about US $71.9 billion in fiscal year 2023, representing about 1.2% of total federal spending.
• For perspective: For many advanced donor countries, defence spending is about 2.38% of GDP (in 2024) while aid spending on development/humanitarian is far lower (often below 0.7% of GDP).

🧭 Why This Matters for Your Community
• These figures show that vast sums are available for military efforts, but comparatively small sums are directed to feeding children, caring for the elderly, helping disabled people and housing the homeless.
• When you see families in Chambers County struggling with food or shelter, it’s part of a system where resources are being prioritized differently—globally and nationally.
• Your message: “If the money is found to fight wars, why can’t similar resources be found to serve our most vulnerable at home?”
• This comparison empowers your audience: they’re not just dealing with local problems in isolation—they’re part of a larger picture of budget priorities and human need.

Survival Training for Americans
🇺🇸 Be Ready for Anything: A Simple Survival Guide for American Families

If the past few years have taught us anything, it’s this: always be ready.
Whether it’s a government shutdown, a job loss, or an unexpected expense — planning ahead protects your peace of mind and your family’s comfort.

Here’s how to start today — simple steps anyone can follow:

🏠 1️⃣ Plan Your Meals

🗓️ Plan a full month ahead: breakfast → snack → lunch → snack → dinner → snack.
🍝 Keep it simple — oatmeal, sandwiches, soups, chili, casseroles, pasta.
🍨 Save desserts like ice cream or cake for one or two family treat nights a week.
📲 Use free tools like Walmart Grocery to plan, price, and swap brand names for cheaper options.

🍞 2️⃣ Cook at Home, Not the Drive-Thru

Fast food is quick but costly.
For the same $40 you’d spend on pizza, you can buy enough ingredients to make homemade pizza every week. Cooking together builds memories, not debt. ❤️

🧊 3️⃣ Stock & Freeze

🧺 A small deep freezer can save hundreds: buy meat and veggies on sale, divide, and freeze.
🥫 Keep an emergency pantry stocked with rice, beans, pasta, soups, peanut butter, sugar, flour, coffee, and tea.
🔁 Rotate what you store — use the oldest first.

💊 4️⃣ Stock Household Essentials

You don’t have to spend a fortune.
Dollar stores carry affordable:
• Cold & cough medicine
• Ibuprofen & first aid
• Baby wipes & soap
• Toothpaste & cleaning supplies

A small backup supply keeps your household steady through any storm.

🌱 5️⃣ Learn from Our Grandparents

They planted gardens, canned vegetables, cooked from scratch, and made every dollar count. That’s how they got through hard times — and it still works today. Have a potluck night you and several others bring a dish and eat together.

Message:
“Preparedness isn’t panic — it’s peace of mind. If you’re ready for anything, nothing can take your family by surprise.”

THE SMOKE SCREEN

(A Modern Reflection on Revelation and the Mind)

“Then the angel opened the abyss, and smoke rose out like the smoke of a great furnace; and out of the smoke came creatures that harmed only those without the seal of God.” — Revelation 9:2-4

Smoke hides what’s real. It clouds the air, dulls the senses, and blinds people to truth.
That same kind of smoke screen fills today’s world — not just in the sky, but in politics, war, and the human mind.

Take Osama Almasri Najim, a former Libyan police commander accused of war crimes.
The who is a man who once controlled prisons and people.
The what are the crimes — torture, murder, and cruelty against detainees and migrants.
The when is after Libya’s collapse in 2015, when power fractured and chaos gave rise to strongmen.
The where is Tripoli, in detention centers where pain became policy.
The why is the deepest question — why does a system allow one man to rise on the suffering of others?

Psychologically, people like Najim often show traits of antisocial personality disorder and malignant narcissism — marked by deceit, lack of empathy, and pleasure in control. But one man’s illness doesn’t explain the whole picture. Someone gave him power. Someone looked away.

And that’s the real smoke screen: arresting one man while the system that created him still breathes.
It’s the same spiritual blindness Revelation warned about — the smoke that fills the air so thick, people stop noticing the darkness within it.

🏛️ REBUILD THE PROCESS

Why Congress Must Pass Appropriations Bills One by One — Not All at Once

⚖️ INTRODUCTION

SNAP didn’t come through. A federal judge had to order the president to feed the people.
That’s not just dysfunction — that’s a leadership breakdown.

Let’s fix the system before it breaks more lives.

🧠 THE HUMAN SIDE OF POLICY

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

People can’t chase dreams if they’re fighting for food, medicine, or shelter.
Funding delays hit the foundation of life — stability, security, survival.

Clare Graves’ Value Systems

We don’t all think alike.
Americans live in different realities — survival, community, authority, innovation.
A one-size-fits-all budget process? Guaranteed conflict.

🔥 WHAT’S BROKEN
• Congress jams 12 major bills into one massive, last-minute package.
• One fight can block everything — education, defense, food, healthcare.
• In 2025, the Supreme Court had to force the president to resume SNAP benefits.
• Courts and presidents shouldn’t be fighting over whether the people get fed.

🪶 THE FORGOTTEN NATION

A word about Native Americans:

This was their land. Their culture. Their sovereignty.
And it was taken — by force, by policy, by silence.

The U.S. helped restore Israel after WWII.
What about the Native Nations?
Giving them “some benefits” isn’t justice — it’s just surviving.

If any group deserves focused appropriations and reparations, it’s the First People of this land.

📅 A SMARTER STRUCTURE

12 Appropriations Bills → 4 Seasons
• Winter: Defense, Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs
• Spring: Education, Health, Labor
• Summer: Agriculture, Energy, Environment
• Fall: Housing, Transportation, Commerce, Financial Services

Why it works:
• Real time for real decisions
• Each issue gets the stage
• No more hostage politics
• Respects all mindsets — survival to systems-thinking
• Makes room to finally fund Native priorities with intention

🎯 BOTTOM LINE

We need a budget system that reflects:
• Truth
• Balance
• Justice
• Respect between branches
• And respect for the people this country was taken from

This is not just about spending money.
It’s about doing right — and doing it the right way.

✊🏽 FOR THE PEOPLE

12 Bills. 4 Seasons. 1 Nation.
Let’s do this the right way.
