In 2026 the Line Between Real and Fake Will Become Increasingly Blurred

It’s time to pull the plug on the matrix. The alternative in a digitized world is to let your humanity be swallowed up. And once you lose it, there’s no guarantee you’ll get it back.
I hoped that 2025 would be the year people woke up and realized they were being manipulated – needlessly divided and pitted against each other.
I hoped they would escape the Fox News/CNN/MSNBC matrix. I hoped they would see the world as it really is, not as the belligerent neoconservatives and neoliberals in Washington want us to see it—with a foreign bogeyman lurking around every corner, writes Leo Hohman .
Many have rubbed enough sleep from their eyes to see that the biggest enemy is our own government and its corporate “partners” in Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Food, and Big Agriculture. But that’s far from enough. Too many people remain stuck in a media-induced trance focused on the wrong things, on issues that have already been decided at the government policy level, or on problems that provoke lip service and public outrage from politicians who have no intention of solving them.
Take, for example, the Somali childcare fraud case, which has been a hot topic in the news these past two weeks. Perhaps a few dozen Somali migrants will be charged, perhaps even face short prison sentences, but the people in power who enabled the Somali fraudsters to defraud taxpayers for years will never be brought to justice. The same goes for election fraud. The same goes for the Epstein affair.
Most Americans are aware that something is wrong. But far too many people are still living in illusions, believing we can escape this disturbing downward spiral simply by voting more forcefully. That the Golden Age is just around the corner if we just elect the right people.
I’m not saying that no one should vote anymore, but I am saying that it will take much more than just voting to get the ship back on course.
It takes a conscious effort to see things clearly with true spiritual insight. We must unite in moral courage, prayer, and righteous anger.
This week, we heard in the news that foreign leaders are making “demands” of the US for security guarantees. They’re offering us nothing of real value, but committing us to decades of financial and military “aid.” These are contracts our government makes with the governments of other countries, but there’s no signature requirement for us, the people, to pay for them. We, our children, and grandchildren will foot the bill for other countries’ security, making a small percentage of Americans very wealthy.
It’s time for us, the people, to start making our own demands. Why, for example, are we so silent while our government collaborates with Big Tech to control and censor our freedom of speech?
Foreign governments have no right to make demands of us, who pay the taxes that finance the billions in foreign aid they receive, and yet they are not shy. They are brazen. They come to the White House or Mar-A-Lago with their hands outstretched and an attitude of entitlement.
We remain silent. Docile. Engrossed in football, petty politics, and all sorts of other games.
The movement must begin with the realization that everything, and I mean everything, that comes out of the White House (regardless of who lives there) and the corporate media (including much of what passes for conservative media) is either blatantly untrue or a watered-down version of the truth. It’s what they don’t talk about that we should be focusing on in 2026.
Everyone in Washington is compromised. Everyone in Washington is someone’s puppet. This was the realization that drove Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to resign from Congress. She realized it was all a game. She broke with those who served as water boys for Trump’s psychological operation. They realized she was onto them, they knew she knew, and so she had to go. She had a choice: retire gracefully or be drilled away like a screw with its threads damaged. MTG chose the former, and I can’t really blame her.
The nightmare scenario for the Luciferian globalist technocrats is that both the right and the left realize that the red-blue, Democratic-Republican divide is the biggest psy-op of all. It masks the real problems and the real enemies of the people. As someone once said, there is no red and blue, only green . Money, and especially the love of money, has corrupted our republic in a way that goes far beyond partisan divisions. Both Democrats and Republicans know that peace is not profitable. And they want to capitalize on it. That’s why we don’t see an organized peace movement at a time when we need it most.
The momentum is completely focused on war. You can feel the pressure building. The international pressure tank will likely explode in 2026.
We need to ask ourselves: what can almost everyone in a country as divided as America agree on? These are the things the globalist elites don’t want us to look at, let alone focus on. Because as soon as we do, it’s game over for them.
So what are those common issues that most Americans, regardless of their political persuasion, can easily agree on?
- That we don’t want a Third World War and a possible nuclear war.
- That we don’t want to be digitally monitored by AI technologies, in our cars, in our homes, through our devices, in our workplaces, and in public spaces. Turn off the cameras. Now.
- That we don’t want our jobs to be outsourced to AI and robots.
- That we don’t want continued cost inflation and stagnant wages.
- And we all lament the ever-increasing taxes—state, local, and federal—and all the financial woes that come with them.
The globalist power elites who control the media will use every diversion at their disposal, many of which sound like vital issues, to prevent us from paying attention to these core issues. Why? Because they want to lead us to war. They want to slowly collapse the dollar and replace it with a traceable, programmable, digitized, tokenized, virtual economy. And they want to replace us, not with immigrants, but with machines.
It’s time to question everything. Pray for discernment so we can see the difference between a core issue aimed at stripping us of our freedom and humanity, and important-sounding issues designed to distract us.
A few of my readers have criticized me recently for not speaking enough about certain issues. Islam, for example. One accused me of being “soft on Islam.” I’ve never been soft on Islam, but if I don’t speak as often about the evils of this false ideology as I used to, it’s because I realize that while Islam can destroy our country in 50 to 100 years, the implementation of advanced AI and the digitized surveillance state can destroy our country in the next 12 months, and certainly by 2030 at the latest.
Think of it this way: you see a man 50 meters away glaring at you and grabbing a knife. Simultaneously, you see a man 10 meters away grabbing a loaded gun, cocking it, and aiming it at your head. Both are dangerous and want to kill you. Both might even be working together to kill you. But who should you focus on first? I think it’s pretty obvious. The man closer and with a more lethal weapon should be your first priority. After you’ve dealt with him, you can focus on the other man a bit further away.
We live in an age of deception, as Jesus warns in Matthew 24, and it will only get worse in 2026. Many voices and forces, including some that serve as distractions, are vying for our attention.
You’ll never escape the system as long as you keep believing it’s real. It all starts with the realization that what we’re fed every day in the “news” is theater, a continuation of the bread and circuses meant to distract, disorient, and mislead us.
As we enter a new year, try to find joy and meaning in the simple things. Your family. Your friends. Time alone with God.
The Bible verse that comes to mind is Micah 6:8 (NKJV). Meditate on this:
He has shown you, O man, what is good ;
And what does the Lord ask of you?
Besides acting justly,
To love mercy
And walk humbly with your God?
The key here is not to change the world, but to walk humbly with its Creator. Sometimes we must detach ourselves from those who dwell in vanity and self-worship. The alternative is to be sucked into following a false man, a false movement, a false paradigm, and a false Christ, all based on false promises of a new “Golden Age.”
We may not be able to change the ungodly system that runs America and the world, but we can refuse to submit to it and give it power over our lives.
