Joshua Michael opens with excitement about organizing a Republican primary debate for Oregon governor candidates on April 2, 2026, at the Grand Theater in downtown Salem. The event features all major candidates (including mentions of David Medina, Christine Drazan, Ed Diehl, Chris Dudley, Danielle Bethell), limited to 400 seats (with priority for youth/college attendees via .edu accounts for free entry). Key innovations include public-submitted questions (under 100 characters, starting around February 13), internal nonpartisan selection of top questions per category, public voting on finalists, and potential small Q&A. The debate emphasizes uncurated, people-driven dialogue to engage youth voters and influencers (with live streaming planned). Tickets and details go on sale the week of February 12–13; sponsorship/vendor opportunities available.

The bulk of the show shifts to critical analysis of perceived federal overreach in the Trump administration's second term. Michael expresses disillusionment among some MAGA supporters, citing slow progress on issues like Epstein arrests, economic manipulation (e.g., silver market shortages, COMEX deficits, precious metals classified as emergency minerals), and broader globalist threats. He heavily references a February 6, 2026, article by Mike Adams on NaturalNews.com titled "Blueprint for Genocide: The Trump Administration’s $55 Billion Network of Domestic ‘Concentration Camps’," which alleges repurposing of abandoned warehouses/retail spaces into permanent, high-capacity detention facilities (up to 10,000+ per site, with features like 8-foot walls, security fencing, medical waste incinerators) via a ballooned Navy contract (from ~$10B to $55B) under DHS/ICE for the "mass deportation agenda." Michael warns this infrastructure—framed initially for illegal immigrants—could pivot to target American dissenters, critics, gun owners, or political enemies (drawing parallels to historical examples like Uighur camps, Holocaust logistics, or January 6 repercussions), especially if a non-Republican wins in 2028 or amid economic collapse/CBDC risks. He ties in related concerns: DHS using administrative subpoenas for data on anonymous critics of Trump/ICE, market crashes/oligarch manipulation, BRICS de-dollarization pressures, potential energy/food shortages, and a lingering illness wave reminiscent of 2019.

The episode closes on calls for preparation, local Oregon activism (e.g., turning the state "red" to disrupt West Coast alliances, building on 250,000 signatures against gas tax hikes), balanced criticism of Trump (not enough action vs. necessary overreach), and viewer engagement via email jm@noncompliantamerica.com (mailto:jm@noncompliantamerica.com).Overall tone: Urgent, skeptical of centralized power (even under Trump), pro-constitutionalist, and action-focused on grassroots involvement in Oregon's 2026 gubernatorial primary.

in this January 17, 2026 episode of Non-Compliant America, host Joshua Michael (jm) warns of escalating signs that the fiat system is cracking, with powerful interests attempting to block "exits" into physical precious metals through capital controls and banking restrictions.He reports that multiple clients were unable to wire funds to his full-service gold and silver dealership (and other precious metals companies), with banks citing fraud concerns but effectively imposing a blanket policy against such transfers to keep people trapped in fiat.The core focus is on the silver market chaos: The US Mint suspended sales of all silver numismatic products (including collector coins) mid-week due to unprecedented demand and rapidly rising prices, canceling orders and reevaluating pricing. They later posted a dramatically higher price for the 2025/2026 American Eagle one-ounce silver proof coin at $173 (nearly double the ~$90 spot price at the time), yet availability remains restricted.Dealers like APMEX describe massive historical demand, extended shipping delays, increased staffing, and a scramble for physical silver amid over-leveraged paper contracts (ratios as high as 426:1 or recently ~375:1). China has imposed tighter export controls on silver (effective January 1, 2026), limiting authorized exporters and exacerbating global shortages, especially for industrial uses like EVs, solar, and electronics.Michael frames this as manipulation in paper markets (mostly in the US), a decoupling between paper and physical prices, and part of broader economic/geopolitical warfare — including potential ties to resource grabs (e.g., Greenland, Venezuela) and the crumbling fiat system. He highlights a massive annual supply deficit, industrial ramps (e.g., Samsung/Honda batteries), and parallels to historical currency collapses leading to war.Urging listeners to hold tangible assets outside the system (physical metals, not vaulted/IRAs), he stresses preparation for volatility, potential bank crises, devaluation, and shortages. He criticizes over-leveraged banking, fraud in government spending, and calls for self-reliance, community building, and rejecting "docile" policies (e.g., fluoride in water).The episode blends market analysis, conspiracy-tinged warnings about control and impending hard times, and a motivational push for personal sovereignty and "non-compliance" in a time of systemic risk.
