Coming Conflict Inside The USA
230: America's Fractured Political & Social Landscape
Alright folks — good morning to ya.
If you missed it I dropped the new fall reading list yesterday that has a focus on the top titles in geopolitics, business, and finance. You can find it below.
This Friday I’ll be putting out a markets & global news update and next week we will have a China Deep Dive Interview with
a newsletter written for national security professionals, China Hands, and informed Americans who are searching for strategic analysis of US-China competition. Make sure to upgrade if you are interested in receiving this, and other deep dives I put out. I’ve kept the price low so all can access.Today’s deep dive is going to focus on a trend/potential outcome that was really only briefly touched on during the riots and civil unrest of 2019/2020.
The possibility of a new civil war or sustained conflict within the United States and Europe.
The fact of the matter is — the United States has never been more divided. Boomers and older folks like to try to one up the current state of affairs with stories from the 60’s or 80’s in the US when we saw uncertain economies, conflicts overseas, and brief spurts of inflation — but the truth is the current situation is nothing like those — this one has the capacity to end very very poorly for the everyday citizen.
There’s been a new awakening of sorts in the US and Western countries with the onset of the conflict in Israel.
Shit is getting real as they say. True extremist groups and those who follow corresponding ideology are actually acting and executing based on said belief systems. Violence is openly being used now for all of the world to see.
Prolific figures like Elon Musk have commented on Twitter and other social media spaces that Civil War in the US and in Europe is imminent and to be honest, I’m not sure they’re wrong.
Tensions are high right now — and escalation looks likely for the conflict in the Middle East which will have impacts on all of our lives in the US and across the world. Consider what these events indicate and what these developments mean down the line.
At Arb Letter many of the “calls” I’ve spoken about have ended up coming true — from an increase in mass shootings and civil unrest, to the resurgence of crypto, to the world inching closer to World War III — this happens because I focus intently on indicators and patterns that suggest those outcomes are becoming more likely.
NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ ran a poll that found that 77% of Americans are concerned the war could lead to terror attacks in the U.S.
Egypt's PM said this week that the country is "prepared to sacrifice millions of lives" to ensure "no one encroaches upon"
The FB-ISAO raised its cyber threat level to “elevated” just last week
Houthi rebels operating in Yemen declared war on Israel
After the tragic mass shooting in Maine that left 19 dead, a man was found dead with firearms and explosives at an amusement park in Colorado
Ibrahim Bharmal, Editor of the Harvard Law Review was seen this week on camera physically and verbally assaulting an Israeli student during an anti-Israel protest on campus.
Three students were stabbed at Van Nuys High School in Los Angeles
A new caravan of over 7,000 illegal migrants from Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, and Venezuela, left southern Mexico on Monday, headed towards the US border. (Officials have confirmed they have caught 18 people on the FBI’s terror watch list trying to cross the southern border last month alone.)
Customs and Border Protection officials apprehended 24,048 Chinese citizens at the border with Mexico over the 2023 fiscal year ending in September — up more than 10 times from the 1,970 arrests the previous fiscal year (NYPost)

The Marine Corp CENTCOM Ball (the 248th) has been cancelled due to “unforeseen operational commitments” There have been mixed reactions to this online in the veteran/military community with some saying this is a big deal and some saying it’s not since it’s not all the balls — I fall in the former camp. Something is absolutely brewing in the Middle East.
While we’ll touch on the global events today — today’s deep dive is focused on why this matters at home — either within the United States or inside other Western countries.
Today I will touch on the following areas:
The causes of division in the US/chances it escalates
How global developments or escalation in conflict will impact us
Why the next year is going to be unprecedented
How to ensure you’re mentally, physically, and financially ready for what’s coming
By now we have 22,000 similarly minded folks from over 150 countries reading Arb Letter — which is a testament to the importance and usefulness of the predictions, forecasts, and tips I cover.
It’s quite literally never been as important as it is now to be properly informed on what’s happening in the world and in your country. The endless years of decadence, peace, and relative prosperity are over now. The chickens are coming home to roost.
You won’t find the type of analysis we put out today in mainstream media sources or from “approved” talking heads.
Today’s post is a pragmatic look at the rising threats to Americans and Westerners stemming from loose immigration policies, poor foreign policy, and the worsening economic and political state of many democracies.
Ensure you are prepared and up to speed on this information so that you can form your own opinions and not rely on traditional sources that omit, bastardize, and obfuscate this critical intelligence for the sake of political correctness and optics.
Let’s start with the root causes of this intense division so that you can get an idea of what is likely coming on our own soil in the coming months and years.
"Hamas terrorists may conduct attacks here on our own soil…… the threat is elevated”
— FBI Director Christopher Wray
Division In The US
Something unique has happened as a result of the Israel Hamas conflict. You’re starting to see political attitudes shift and people begin to wake up to some extent. Still there are many people who remain completely in the dark about the rising threat within the US and Western countries.
