Former Texas Representative Ron Paul warned the public to prepare for a major “Black Swan” event this year.
During an appearance on the Tucker Carlson Show, Paul recalled how he had predicted the conflict in regions like Ukraine in 2014, long before it happened.
Paul expressed concerns about unexpected, significant events coming this year that could catch the world by surprise.
“I think we’re reaching this point where some sudden thing is going to happen,” he began.
“I believe in that theory of the black swan. Yes, it’s going to pop up, and it’s not going to be controllable,” Paul said.
He also warned the public to prepare for these challenges, touting the homeschooling program.
“But people you ask, what can they do? I think the most important thing is understanding what’s going on, which is education,” Paul said.
“That’s why I happen to have a homeschooling program. And I try to teach this stuff early because you can’t change it,” he added.
“You can’t just demand, for example, $50 an hour. That’s not how it works… You have to know what actions to take. One is to protect your money. Another is to protect your wealth,” Paul added.”
The former Congressman said there is a need for a deep understanding of the causes of societal and economic shifts.
“It’s very, very dangerous,” he warned.

As we reported last December, CBS News investigative reporter Catherine Herridge also predicted that 2024 will produce a ‘Black Swan Event’ that will send shock waves throughout the world.
During a round table discussion, host Margaret Brennan asked Herridge about what we could expect to see in 2024.
“Well, mine’s a little dark,” Herridge began.
“I just feel a lot of concern that 2024 may be the year of a black swan event.”
“This is a national security event with high impact that’s very hard to predict.”
