Ok. Bug out Bag / Car bag. This is going to be a long thread. Keep in mind this is a bag/kit designed around having a bag that you can throw in your car and use from there. Not a gun bag or a backpack which I will likely touch on at a later time.
So here goes. My main bag is massive. I wanted something like a duffle that i could move in and out of my car as needed.
MH makes amazing tents and bags. The color isnt ideal, but for something that will be in the car its fine.

All of them are pretty well made and all serve a kind of unique purpose with what your packing.
So clothes. The first thing i tried to keep in mind is layers. Rain/wind/ cold.
2nd layer; insulator/work. Depending on weather this is a shirt with….
https://t.co/dvUAN9HxJe
3rd Layer: wind/water SHELL. This is a no shit super thin layer that repels water and wind. Marmot/northface/Patagonia nearly everyone makes these and you can pick them up pretty cheap
I keep a single set of each layer in a black hole or MR zoid. I also pack wool/athletic socks in the 1st layer.
I also pack a neck gaiter, and some sort of warm beanie. Minimal room, maximum comfort when you need it.
Filters; i have a steripen with 2x change of batteries and a nalgene specifically for that system.
I have the nalgenes separate to decrease cross contamination of it were to occur, and gives me a few ways to hold water.
I also have a shower bladder in addition….
Food: everyone loves jetboils. I do too. But if fuel cans freeze, or cant be found youre kind of fucked. So in addition to that and 3 cans. I have an MSR whisperlite, that runs on gas, diesel, alcohol and probably the blood of virgins.
I also keep 3 days of MRES. AND 3 days of MTN house/backpacker pantry. Food in a wonton bag
-all weather sleep system. Mil surplus places sell 3 layer sleep systems fairly cheap, and while heavy are absolutely amazing, just the bivy alone is a life saver
-non emergent meds- Ibuprofen, Tylenol, pepto bismol…
- batteries/solar- i keep a solar accessory charger in my car that allows me to charge everything except a laptop. I have an outlet car charger for that

The real pro move too is packing shower shoes as well. Hear me out.

So it's now October 10, 2018 and....Rod Rosenstein is STILL not fired.
He's STILL in charge of the Mueller investigation.
He's STILL refusing to hand over the McCabe memos.
He's STILL holding up the declassification of the #SpyGate documents & their release to the public.
I love a good cover story.......
The guy had a face-to-face with El Grande Trumpo himself on Air Force One just 2 days ago. Inside just about the most secure SCIF in the world.
And Trump came out of AF1 and gave ol' Rod a big thumbs up!
And so we're right back to 'that dirty rat Rosenstein!' 2 days later.
At this point it's clear some members of Congress are either in on this and helping the cover story or they haven't got a clue and are out in the cold.
Note the conflicting stories about 'Rosenstein cancelled meeting with Congress on Oct 11!"
First, rumors surfaced of a scheduled meeting on Oct. 11 between Rosenstein & members of Congress, and Rosenstein just cancelled it.

Rep. Andy Biggs and Rep. Matt Gaetz say DAG Rod Rosenstein cancelled an Oct. 11 appearance before the judiciary and oversight committees. They are now calling for a subpoena. pic.twitter.com/TknVHKjXtd
