What We Offer
Defcon Alerts delivers exclusive, actionable alerts with unparalleled detail—vetted, concise, and tied to global events with geopolitical weight. We monitor the world to pinpoint what’s urgent.
Our Commitment
Independence: Free from government, political, or third-party sway.
Accuracy: Rigorously vetted—though not flawless (spot an error? Tell us).
Quality: Real-time alerts from trusted sources, including global government statements.
Our alerts, news and intel consistently outpace news cycles, cuts through government filters—free from their constraints—and zeros in tighter than scattered social media chatter. We ditch bureaucratic gloss for blunt, descriptive updates pulling from global agencies and obscure, vetted sources.
Our alert frequency scales with the intensity of global events so we’re always keeping an eye on things. Alerts are meticulously checked for accuracy, focusing on high-quality, reliable information that matters.
Timely reports demonstrate our relentless real-time tracking of the global geopolitical pulse, enriched with historical context to reveal critical insights.
Our Standards
We skip political bias, zeroing in on events shaping the U.S. and beyond with geopolitical relevance. As a born-again Christian, Donald Standeford vets every alert with integrity, aiming for excellence.
What Do We Mean By No Bias?
When we say “no bias,” we mean delivering information that’s clear, accurate, and grounded in verifiable facts, unswayed by political influence or hidden agendas—even though, as humans, we all have our own perspectives.
We draw from a wide net of global sources, as it is available, including government statements, defense ministries, and media outlets worldwide, to ensure a broad, honest picture.
Donald Standeford puts it this way: “My goal is to offer straightforward content with just enough context to be meaningful and insightful, but leaving room for readers to form their own judgments. As a Christian, I’m guided by a commitment to integrity, which shapes my approach to ensuring honesty and fairness in what I share.”
That’s the driving force behind keeping our work transparent and factual, no matter where the intel comes from.
