Why Is There Such A Frenzy To Buy Up The Properties That Were Just Burned Down During The Fires In Hawaii?
Can you imagine calling up a family that has just seen their home burn to the ground and offering to buy their land for below market value?

Grieving property owners are being bombarded with calls from very greedy people, and I think that says a lot about the current state of our society. We literally worship material possessions and financial gain, and the sheer greed that we are witnessing at this moment is absolutely staggering.

Euphrates River’s water level hits historic low at Tabqa Dam, Syria
The water level of the Euphrates River has plummeted drastically over the past three weeks, reaching a concerning historical low at Tabqa Dam, Syria.

WEF Declare 'We Are Gods, if You Stand in Our Way, You Will Die'
A World Economic Forum insider has declared that the globalist elite are going to become gods, and if you interfere with this process there will be big trouble.
According to the globalists, the only way to stop them becoming gods is to kill them, and before you manage to do that, they will kill you.
This is the most direct and bloodthirsty warning from the WEF to date and it leaves no room for the mainstream media and their fact checkers to dissemble the facts and muddy the waters. There is no room for debate – the globalist elite have messiah complexes and they are hell-bent on playing god.
The WEF is a fucking death wish, you may kill me, but I'm going to take some of you motherfuckers with me, maybe even you, Klaus Schwab, you old dirty evil man.
