The United States Navy has deployed one of its most advanced attack submarines, the USS Minnesota (SSN-783) to Guam, as part of the country’s program of strengthening its strategic presence in the Indo-Pacific region amid growing tensions with China.
The Virginia-class fast-attack submarine, along with its crew of approximately 140 sailors, arrived at Naval Base Guam on Nov. 26. This deployment is part of the Navy’s broader “strategic laydown plan,” which positions its most capable units forward to enhance operational readiness and flexibility in the region.
“This posture allows for rapid response capabilities in maritime and joint force operations, helping deter aggression while promoting a peaceful and prosperous Indo-Pacific,” the U.S. Navy stated in a press release.
China’s growing military presence has raised concerns among U.S. officials. The People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) is currently the world’s largest in terms of number of active vessels, with more than 600 PLAN ships and around 230 additional auxiliary vessels, compared to the U.S. Navy’s approximately 470, of which only around 300 are deployable and around 50 are scheduled for retirement in the next three years.
The PLAN fleet includes six nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines and six nuclear-powered attack submarines, as reported by the Department of Defense in 2023. The report predicts that the Chinese submarine fleet will expand to over 80 vessels by 2035, underscoring the increasing maritime competition in the region. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
