(Natural News) Globalists see humanity as cattle (or sheeple) to be exploited for as long as needed, then culled like cattle herds when they are no longer useful. As a globalist advisor, Yuval Harari is now saying (paraphrased), that the age of humans is coming to an end on planet Earth, and globalists have activated a multi-faceted plan to “cleanse” the planet of all human beings.
If someone were to have some sick, twisted desire to kill off a herd of cattle, they could simply shut off the water and the food. Death would come in a matter of days or weeks at most. The same is happening right now to humans.
The water supply is being cut off via geoengineering, causing global droughts and widespread crop failures. Entire cities like Los Angeles and Los Vegas are being threatened with a terminated water supply in the years ahead.
The food supply is being decimated by cutting off fertilizer supplies and causing diesel fuel prices to go sky high while also attacking the supply chain that supplies agricultural equipment parts.
The result? Both the water supplies and food supplies are being cut off. The human herd is being culled in some of the same ways a herd of cattle might be eliminated.
Vaccines represent another kill vector for global depopulation. Because vaccines are voluntary, they are intended to easily kill off the gullible masses who are so ill-informed that they actually believe Big Government and Big Pharma want to save their lives. In reality, of course, the vaccines are biological weapons designed for infertility and depopulation. A huge percentage — we don’t yet know the final number — of those who have already taken the vaccines will die from self-assembling clots that we now know contain high concentrations of conductive elements such as Aluminum, Tin, and Sodium.
Those who resist the vaccines are harder to kill because they don’t line up and beg for death injections as the vaccine zealots do. Globalists intend to starve them to death with global food scarcity.
Right now, we already know there isn’t enough food in the pipeline to feed the world throughout 2023. It simply isn’t getting planted and harvested in sufficient quantities to feed 8 billion people.
Continued government attacks on the food supply — such as The Netherlands ordering ranchers to cull their herds — are designed to worsen food scarcity and accelerate mass starvation.
Relatively few people are getting prepared with backup food supplies. When the shelves are empty, they will panic.
Store plug: The Health Ranger Store will be releasing a few thousand “Ranger Buckets” during our Labor Day event starting Sep. 1. These are certified organic, laboratory-tested food supplies, containing NO MSG, no soy, no textured vegetable protein, no yeast extract, no refined carbohydrates or sugars, no artificial colors, etc. You can enter your email to be alerted when these are back in stock at this Ranger Buckets product page. (Click on the “Notify Me About Restock” button near the very bottom of the page to be alerted via email when these are back in stock.)
In today’s Situation Update podcast (below), I explain that the globalist vaccine depopulation scheme has failed to kill off billions of people in the short amount of time that was intended. With food scarcity, energy scarcity, and water scarcity now reaching critical levels, mass uprisings are mere months away. Western Europe, in particular, is going to see civilian revolts this coming winter as millions find themselves freezing and starving.
The globalists know that worldwide food scarcity is already baked in. They also know the mass uprisings will commence as starvation and scarcity worsen. Thus, there is a countdown timeline in play that cannot be rescheduled.
As a result, they are in a huge hurry to kill off billions of human beings before the uprisings get out of hand and snowball beyond the ability of these governments to contain.
This is the real purpose behind the recruiting and arming of 87,000 new IRS agents who are being told they will need to use “deadly force” against the American people. In France, the Ministry of the Interior is hiring thousands of “green police” who will join armed brigades to supposedly prosecute “environmental crimes.” Yet the real purpose of all these armed government agencies in the USA, France, UK, Germany, Canada, Australia, etc. is to carry out mass executions of civilians as the government’s war on humanity kicks into high gear.
The purpose of having a rogue FBI, armed IRS agents (armed with a massive new cache of ammunition and firearms), armed ATF agents, etc., is to have a private army that answers to the executive branch of government and that doesn’t fall under the jurisdiction of the US military, which cannot legally wage war on US soil. Federal agencies, however, can and will wage war against the American people. They are already doing it, with ATF agents now going door to door, demanding civilians surrender gun parts they legally purchased, for example. It’s going to be up to state governors to defend their residents against these federal tyrants, and that will spark regional warfare with states literally going to war with rogue federal agencies run by the illegitimate fake “resident in chief” Joe Biden.
Even right now, democrats, the government, and the media are claiming that all conservatives are terrorists, implying they all deserve to be exterminated. As Everett Piper writes in the Washington Times:
This past Tuesday, Democrat adviser Kurt Bardella called all Republicans a “domestic terrorist cell.” MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross agreed and said there should be no distinction between Republicans and “right-wing extremists.” At the same time, Peter Wehner, a contributing writer for The Atlantic, likened the Republican Party to a “dagger pointed at the throat of American democracy.” All this while FBI Director Christopher Wray added that any American flying the Gadsden — “Don’t Tread On Me” — flag is suspected of violent extremism.
Does it concern you that a group of Democrats holding power is now defining all Republicans as being “right-wing extremists” and a “threat to American democracy?”
Democrats, the government, and the media are gearing up to try to morally justify their “purge” of all conservatives, Christians, gun owners, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters.
Remember, these Democrats are the same people who mutilate the genitalia of their own children in the name of transgenderism. If they will mutilate their children, what do you think they will do to their perceived political enemies? …Especially if they can convince themselves that their enemies represent a “threat to democracy.”
To the skeptics who say ignorant things like, “The IRS is going to use those guns and ammo on the American people,” we ask: Who else would they be planning to use it on? Of course, it’s intended to use on Americans! Anyone who hasn’t yet come to realize that simple fact is probably not going to survive the next year in America.
If you’re wondering what can kill billions of people faster than mass starvation and crop failures, think grid-down scenarios. Any western government can sabotage their own domestic power grid and blame the Russians for “cyber attacks.” When the power grid is down, the financial system grinds to a halt. Chaos ensues. Mass looting and violence in the streets. Cops bug out. Civilians who are left behind get murdered, robbed, and raped. This will happen in nearly every blue city in America.
Within just a few months of a grid-down scenario, up to 90% of the population is dead from violence, starvation, exposure or disease. Understand that heating and air conditioning will not function. Municipal water systems won’t work, meaning there will be no tap water. Cell towers will not function. If you need to charge an electronic device, you’ll need solar panels and a solar generator. If you want to enjoy communications, you’ll need a satellite phone or satellite text messaging device (like the Bivy stick from our sponsor SAT123.com). If you want to eat, you’ll need stored food. If you don’t want to die from dehydration, you’ll need a water filter and a water source that you can safely and frequently access. You’ll also need lots of containers for storing and transporting water because you’ll need far more water than you think. (Figure 10 gallons per person per day as an absolute minimum.)
Understand that the globalists have only just begun to deploy their weapons against humanity. There’s much more they can unleash as needed, and if they don’t get the kill rate they’re wanting, they will just crank up the chaos until a sufficient number of billions are dead.
Humanity is being culled like cattle. Those who don’t see it will be among the first to be exterminated by it. But those who prepare have a realistic chance of making it through the genocide and participating in the rebuilding of human civilization on the other side.
Today’s Situation Update podcast spells it out in even more detail:

It’s astonishing how, by the time we normal folk first hear of a new Globalist Socialist initiative, it turns out there’s already a significant amount of infrastructure in place. Take eating bugs, for example. Did you know that there are currently sizable cricket farms in many parts of the world, including Canada and the United States? Or that cricket flour is already used in some foods?
For example, Entomo Farms in Canada currently produces a weekly harvest of 50 million crickets, which it mills into 9,000 pounds of “protein.” The owners plan to triple production within a year. Some of the “cricket flour” goes into pet foods, while some is added to foods made for human consumption. And some of the insects are used intact as seasoned snack foods. The cricket producer already sells its products under the brand name Actually Foods.
Business Insider posted an informational video on Friday that gives a look into daily operations at Entomo Farms. It’s seven minutes long and fairly interesting if you’re not the kind that gets skeeved out at the sight of mounds of insects:
In all fairness, there seems to be much to recommend free-range cricket farming: farms require a fairly small footprint, crickets are fast breeders, cricket poop (“frass”) can be used as fertilizer, crickets and bugs carry very few diseases that can be transmitted to humans, and the critters have a range of uses. Crickets can be included in pet foods and treats. (I know my cat loves her some bugs.) Soy-heads can include chirpers in their diet as a protein source. And — my favorite — crickets can be fed real food like tasty fish, chickens, and turkeys.
So what’s the problem? Glo-Socs aren’t simply trying to offer people another item on the menu to choose from; they want to eventually force us to eat bugs, which they will do by abolishing the raising of livestock. We know how this goes because we’ve seen this movie before. Glo-Socs target something for abolition — DDT, incandescent bulbs, internal combustion engines — make a politicized scientific effort to create a replacement, then ban the targeted product. Never mind that the crappy replacement they came up with is inferior and that no one would choose it over the original item. What’s the point of having all that power if you’re not going to use it, amirite?
Here’s where the dystopia sets in.
In the name of saving Mother Earth from “man-made climate change,” the forces of light are targeting traditional livestock farming and replacing it with mass-produced bugs and grubs. LifeSiteNews.com reports:
Microsoft founder Bill Gates, who is considered the largest private owner of farmland in the United States and in 2019 invested $100,000 into an insect-farming start-up, has stated that “all rich countries should move to 100% synthetic beef.”
Likewise, George Monbiot, a British writer and environmental activist, told Irish state-funded media outlet RTE last month that agriculture destroys “habitats,” is one of the leading causes of “climate breakdown,” and pollutes the air and water.
“We need to switch toward other sources of food,” Monbiot said, arguing that “eating meat and milk and eggs is an indulgence we cannot afford.” (This especially breaks my heart, and Irish dairy is one of life’s finest pleasures.)
Once all those dastardly cows and yardbirds are gone (except for the small number on which our betters will naturally dine), hungry proles are just going to have to eat what’s on their plate. As we teach pre-schoolers, you get what you get and you don’t get upset.
Luckily, crickets take just six weeks from hatch to harvest and they’re prolific egg layers, so production can be ramped up rapidly. “Super exciting thing about insect farming is scale-up is super fast,” says Darrin Goldin, the cricket grower featured in the Business Insider video. “Each cricket lays 600 eggs or so, and so, in a crisis event, if we needed to scale up our production, we can do it really, really fast.”
Hmm, a “crisis event.” Where did he get that notion?
Related: Is the Green Agenda Being Forced Upon Us by Accident?
Crickets are already popular in Asia, our betters assure us. But then again, so are mask-wearing and communism.
I keep thinking of that pathetic scene in Soylent Green where Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson get hold of some actual, real food and it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event for them. I figure we’re, what, ten years out at this point?

Republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, & research purposes.
(Natural News) Be careful when buying “health food” as some corporations have already begun quietly adding cricket “flour” and other insect-based ingredients to products labeled “sustainable” and “nutritious.”
One company called Actually Foods is now selling a Cheddar Cheese Puffs product that contains “organic cricket flour” in the “puff” ingredients list. The product, which comes from Canada, is labeled using the terms “nutritious,” “sustainable,” and “delicious.”
The Cheddar Cheese Puffs product from Actually Foods is also branded as being high in protein because it is “powered by crickets” – the suggestion being that crickets are a “superfood.”
It turns out that Entomo Farms, the parent company of Actually Foods, is on a mission “to make cricket-based foods the first choice for individuals interested in high-quality, sustainable protein.” The company offers an entire line of products with cricket ingredients, including cricket protein powder and whole roasted crickets, both in regular and “organic.”
Exo Protein’s Savory Meal Bar is another food product that contains cricket flour as a protein source. Competitor Snowpiercer likewise offers a “cricket protein bar” that is marketed as a health food product.
Another creepy brand called Human Improvement (hi!), the branding of which is reminiscent of the film Soylent Green, offers a cricket protein powder that contains “crazy fiber” and other “unique ingredients.”
The company claims that its insect powder is an “actual whole food” that is great “for muscle” and does not cause bloat. It aims to be a replacement for whey protein from goats and cows.
Then we have Hoppy Planet Foods’ “Chocolate Chirp Cookies,” which are labeled on the front of the package as containing “3x protein” compared to regular chocolate chip cookies.
What is not apparent from the front of the package is the fact that Chocolate Chirp Cookies contain cricket ingredients that are not prominent at first glance. This is one of the more deceptive brands that appear to be trying to hide cricket ingredients from customers.
Roberts Bakery in the United Kingdom also offers a cricket bread loaf that contains dried, ground-up cricket carcasses in the flour. The result is “a lovely tasty loaf with a crunchy finish.”
As we reported, crickets are also now on the menu at some public schools in Wales, another country that has been co-opted by globalists from the World Economic Forum (WEF), which is behind the cricket push.
“The world’s population will reach 9.7 billion people by 2050. This means that despite only 4% of arable land remaining available on the surface of our planet an additional 2 billion more humans will have to be fed,” the WEF wrote in an article published last year.
“In order to address this impending crisis, world experts and leaders will meet this autumn at the UN Food Summit and then the COP26. Often overlooked in these discussions is the potential role insects can play in helping meet this challenge.”
Self-appointed elitists like WEF head Klaus Schwab would never stoop so low themselves as to consume crickets and other insects. No, those are for the peons – the human slaves whom the globalists see as cattle, hence the push for the masses to eat bugs.
All the talk about bugs being “carbon-friendly” is climate-deranged nonsense and deception to corral the human herd into a “sustainable,” meat-free future. The question is: will you let the globalists do this to you without a fight?
“Now there’s some food factories we won’t see any fires at,” wrote a commenter at Infowars about how the cricket factories are safe from the globalists’ terrorism spree.

If you peasants can be convinced to settle for less, that would sure be convenient for our garbage ruling caste since it has proven itself utterly incapable of even marginal performance in achieving merely the bare minimum standards of its job.

No.
No, everything is much, much worse now than it was just a few years ago, and you are insane, stupid, and/or an insurrectionist for merely noticing, much less saying so. It's all a conspiracy theory, the "conspiracy" is seeing and talking about what everyone sees is happening right in front of us.

Lower Your Expectations, Serfs
You are asking for too much, you terrible person. You want cheap gas and a functioning supply chain, air conditioning and not to eat bugs. But most of all, you expect the elite to actually do its job, and for that, you are terrible. And racist.
Bums litter our streets figuratively and – in ghastly form – literally. Criminals run rampant unmolested by the gendarmes, who have been told – expressly and impliedly – to let the crooks be. Our economy is sensational, groovy, glorious – except for the inflation and the hollowing out of your 401K. Try to buy a house instead of renting – just try.
The globalist elite has failed in doing what we want, but it seems to be doing what it wants. It is gathering power and payoffs unto itself, and that is precisely the goal. If we are worrying about feeding our families – and they control the food – then we are less likely to get uppity and demand that our elite not suck.
The problem for them is that, at least in America, we still have some power to change things without conflict. But elsewhere, where the path to peaceful change is blocked by undemocratic regimes, it's getting ugly. In Sri Lanka, where the government decided to ban fertilizer because some Davos nimrods wished to appease an angry weather goddess, they rebelled. In Holland, the Dutch farmers are rebelling in order to save their farms from a similar fate. But in Canada, the truckers rebelled, and they were crushed. Now, Trudeaussolini is trying the same fertilizer scam. Who had "Famine in Manitoba" on his 2022 bingo card?
And here in America, they tried to ban modern guns. I wonder why.
The real defining election issue for the next couple of decades is going to be whether we choose to move into a future of shared prosperity, where everyone lives free and safe and well, or toward the WEF feudalism model where we own nothing, have no freedom, and obey our unaccomplished overlords. That is how we need to put it. If you vote for a Democrat, you vote for tampon shortages and auto burglaries, at least for the time being until they ban private automobiles. Oh, and let's not forget mutilating your kid both mentally with CRT and physically with surgery via elite gender nonsense.
They really do hate you, and they really do want you dead or enslaved. And until every Republican politician gets that, until they learn what time it is, we're going to merely manage the decline instead of going on the counter-offensive and wreaking these people and their trash ideology once and for all.
Are People on Planes Getting Dumber?
Yes, definitely.
I have had to fly a lot in recent weeks in connection with my new non-fiction book, "We'll Be Back: The Fall and Rise of America" – six weeks, six trips. One thing has become abundantly clear. People are getting dumber, and there's no better demonstration than taking a flight.
First of all, flights are unbelievably expensive. It's incredible. An economy ticket is what a first-class fare would have been when Trump was in office, and now a first-class ticket requires your firstborn. And for some reason, the crews now feel like they have to talk to you all the time. Safety briefing? Fine. But I don't need the pilot's musings on his thoughts about life. Fly the damn plane. If we're hitting turbulence, warn us. Tell us when we are arriving. Otherwise, silence. I want to sit there and stew unharangued.
And no, I do not need to hear about your wonderful credit card offers or be warned not to drink my own booze – like every normal person, I hit the bar before I fly instead of sneaking snorts of McCallan in my seat like a teen raiding dad's liquor cabinet. Here's one idea, though. Adequate ground staffing so that there is more than one person checking luggage for 300 people. It's like every flight is a surprise – "Gee, who would have thought a 777 would hold a lot of people?"
And the passengers… cue the circus music. Look, I don't think you need a top hat and tails to fly, but a lot of these people dress like hobos who got vomited up by other hobos. The boarding process is a parade of muffin tops and tacky tatts. Thanks for the glimpse of your pierced navel, lady – here's an idea: Wear a shirt.
Carry-on luggage…who is unaware that bin space is tight and that your steamer trunk won't fit? Check your damn bags, people. I was consigned to steerage once, and this dude from some bizarre foreign country is sitting there and in the foot space where my feet go is this giant lute – I think it was an oud. And he looks at me like I'm the idiot when I say, "Hey, you need to get your blanking oud out of my seat." We did not chat on the flight, so some good came of it.
Crying kids. I get it. Been there. Crying kids are part of life, and we need to deal. I am not complaining about that. We need strong young to fight communists, so children should be encouraged and parents rewarded instead of hassled. But you don't have to let your kid sing a song. Unless it is "Love Will Tear Us Apart" or "Anarchy in the UK" – that would rock.
Then there are the masked people with their masked children. I don't wear masks because I am a man, so I get dirty looks when they have to sit around me. Drones. Oh, and another thing – do not have long, loud cell chats as we board. "Hi, getting on the plane. Call you when I land." That is the totality of an appropriate cell call on a plane, not some lengthy digression about how Lou in marketing was telling Sheila to get her TP46 forms organized, but she thought he said TP47 forms, and shenanigans ensued. Just sit there on the plane in uncomfortable silence as Team Dumbass tries to figure out how storage bins work.
Rant complete.

One hectare is the size of two and a half football fields. So imagine the expanse of a million hectares. Iran’s use of it may not necessarily be (as reported) only for farming, given the nefarious and deceptive regimes of Iran and Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro. Even if it is used strictly for cultivation, the close friendship between Venezuela and Iran should be a deep concern to absentee America.
Maduro hails Iran as a partner “in the fields of science, technology, agriculture, oil and gas, petrochemicals, tourism, and culture.” Friendship goes beyond economics. Last year, reports emerged that Venezuela was hosting Palestinian jihadists including Hizballah and Fatah cells involved in money laundering, drug dealing, and jihad activity.
In 2020, then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo warned an antiterrorism conference in Colombia about the Iranian proxy Hizballah’s presence in Venezuela, and an exiled former mayor, Antonio Ledezma, stated that Hizballah would participate in overseeing Venezuelan regional elections. Ledezma called Venezuela “a den for terrorist groups.”
In June, “Maduro paid a visit to Tehran and signed a 20-year partnership agreement on cooperation with Iran in various fields.”
Venezuela also offered last year to supply natural gas to Mexico last year. By befriending Mexico, Iran and Hizballah will have a clear path to infiltrating the U.S., especially given Biden’s lax immigration policy.
“Venezuela Provides Iran with 1 Million Hectares of Farmland,” Tasnim News Agency, July 26, 2022:
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Venezuela has allowed Iran to use one million hectares of its farmland for cultivation, an Iranian official said.
Speaking to Tasnim, the Iranian deputy interior minister for economic affairs highlighted the added value that the products and services provided by domestic knowledge-based companies would create in other countries, as in South American nations.
According to Mohsen Kousheshtabar, Venezuela has provided Iran with one million hectares of farmland for cultivation while the world is grappling with the shortage of strategic reserves.
He said such a major plan for extra-territorial cultivation reveals that Iran has become so great and strong and has reached such a high level in scientific exchanges that other countries are reaching out to the Islamic Republic.
“It definitely signifies the technical knowledge of these (Iranian) knowledge-based companies that has transpired at the international level,” he said.
In June, President of Venezuela Nicolas Maduro paid a visit to Tehran and signed a 20-year partnership agreement on cooperation with Iran in various fields….

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
A recent analysis by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed that urine samples of approximately 87 percent of 650 children living in the United States had detectable levels of the weed killer pesticide glyphosate.1
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the U.S. in the agricultural industry and the second most used in the home and garden industry to control broadleaf weeds and grasses that affect fruit, vegetable, and cereal crops. The use of the chemical glyphosate, which is registered as a pesticide with the U.S. government, has increased more than 200 times since 1974 when Monsanto, an American agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology corporation, commercialized it under the trade name Roundup.2 German pharmaceutical company Bayer now owns glyphosate after it bought Monsanto in 2018.3
In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) stated that glyphosate is a “probable human carcinogen” based on limited evidence of cancer in humans (from real-world exposures) and sufficient evidence of cancer in experimental animals.4 however, the European Food Safety Authority and the joint Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)/World Health Organization (WHO) determined that glyphosate is unlikely to be a carcinogen.5
In 2016, Ronnie Cummins, co-founder and international director of Organic Consumers Association (OCA) said, “In 1992, the U.S. government at the behest of Monsanto and corporate agribusiness, using the excuse of “sound science” and streamlining government restrictions on industry, declared that genetically modified organisms (GMO) and their accompanying pesticides, such as Roundup, would be allowed into the U.S. food supply, with no labeling nor special pre-market safety testing required The so-called scientific justification for this proclamation was the doctrine of “substantial equivalence,” the industry promoted but a scientifically indefensible theory that patented genetically engineered foods and crops are the same as non-genetically engineered crops and, therefore, are inherently safe.”6
In 2019, the U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) released an analysis that connected glyphosate to non-Hodgkin lymphoma and recommended monitoring children’s exposure to this chemical.7
Food is the primary mode of exposure to glyphosate in children under the age of eighteen.8 The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has determined that major food companies like General Mills market and sell popular children’s breakfast cereals and other foods contaminated with high levels of glyphosate in it. EWG conducted its own testing and found that glyphosate was detected in all 21 oat-based cereal and snack products sampled. All except four products contained levels of glyphosate higher than what EWG scientists consider safe for children’s health.9
The products with the highest glyphosate levels were found in Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch with 833 parts per billion (ppb), and Cheerios with 729 ppb. The EWG children’s health benchmark for glyphosate is 160 ppb.10
Glyphosate is mainly used as a weed killer on genetically modified corn and soybeans. It is also sprayed on oats as a drying agent. Glyphosate dries out crops so it can be harvested quickly, which increases the likelihood that it ends up in foods children enjoy eating.11
Alexis Temkin, Ph.D., an EWG toxicologist said:
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the country, yet until now we had very little data on exposure. Children in the U.S. are regularly exposed to this cancer-causing weed killer through the food they eat virtually every day.12
Glyphosate has also been detected in a number of vaccines given to children and adults. An organization known as Moms Across America submitted five childhood vaccines to Microbe Inotech Laboratories, Inc. in St. Louis, Missouri to test for the presence of glyphosate. The tests were conducted using the ELISA method.13
On Mar. 14, 2016, Moms Across America received results from Microbe Inotech Laboratories, which indicated that all five of the vaccines tested positive for glyphosate. Glyphosate was detected in the following vaccines:14

(Natural News) Health freedom is under attack in a new way. Illinois Senator Richard Durbin (D) is the sponsor of a new regulatory proposal -the Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2022. This regulatory nightmare would give the pharmaceutical industry (FDA) more control over nutritional supplements, allowing the Food and Drug Administration to regulate many out of existence.
Under the new legislation, nutritional, food-based, and herbal supplements would be required to undergo the same pre-market approval process as drugs – limiting access and driving up the cost of some of the most basic nutrients and superfoods.
Dr. Joseph Mercola warns that the Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2022 would allow the drug industry to take over supplements and regulate them out of existence. In the past, he said, “the drug industry and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration have tried to ban certain supplements, including vitamin B6 and N-acetylcysteine (NAC), by reclassifying them as new drugs.” The latest hostile takeover of supplements would ensure that millions of Americans are unable to take care of their health in the most basic, fundamental ways.
This legislation would allow the FDA to reclassify certain supplements as “new drugs.” Supplement companies will not be able to afford millions of dollars in new regulatory fees that will be required to get their products approved by the FDA. If passed, this will drive small supplement manufacturers out of business, allowing the drug companies to continue buying them up. Right now, fourteen mega corporations – including the likes of Pfizer, Nestle, and Bayer – control more than one hundred of the most popular supplements on the market. For example, Nestle Health Science has bought up Garden of Life, Vital Proteins, Wobenzym, Persona Nutrition, Nuun, Orthica, Pure Encapsulations, Douglas Laboratories, Genestra, Minami, AOV, Klean Athlete, Bountiful, and its smaller brands Solgar, Osteo Bi-Flex, Puritan’s Pride, Ester-C, and Sundown. Once the drug companies control these products, the formulas are often adulterated and manufactured with fillers and synthetic chemicals.
The Dietary Supplement Listing Act of 2022 has already been introduced to the US Senate and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. It is expected to become a part of the FDA’s Safety Landmark Advancements Act. Daniel Fabricant, Ph.D. president and CEO of the Natural Products Association, warned, “Last time I checked, dietary supplements are not drugs, biologics or medical devices, so why Congress or anyone supporting nongermane legislation that will only add costs to consumers who are doing all they can to stay healthy is extremely troubling.”
The FDA has been writing warning letters to supplement companies, telling them not to market N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) for any health issues. NAC has been used as a remedy to help the body synthesize glutathione, strengthening the immune system. The FDA threatened Amazon to stop selling NAC products after learning about the public’s interest in NAC for combating infections.
This is just the tip of the spear. In 2007, Medicure Pharma manufactured a synthetic version of vitamin B6, for which they owned a drug patent. Medicure Pharma called the vitamin MC-1 and used it to treat inadequate blood flow.
That year, Medicure Pharma called on the FDA to target any dietary supplement manufacturer that used vitamin B6 in their formula. Medicure Pharma argued that any product that contained pyridoxal 5?-phosphate was guilty of selling an “adulterated” product under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, article 402(f). The drug company had already entered MC-1 into the drug bank and believed they had exclusive rights to manufacture the synthetic B6 vitamin – no competition allowed. However, various whole food vitamin manufacturers used the natural form of vitamin B6 (pyroxidine) and refused to acquiesce to the Medicure Pharma and the drug industry. When a pharmaceutical company turns a vitamin into a synthetic drug, they are able to jack up the price and market it as theirs.
Under the new regulatory proposal, drug companies would be able to legally get away with this fraud with just about any natural vitamin or phytochemical. This will inevitably destroy health food stores and push basic food-based supplements into the pharmacy, where drug companies can control the price and limit access.
The Natural Products Association urges everyone to contact their representatives to oppose this threat to our health and freedom.

(Natural News) There is no longer “safety in numbers,” especially when it comes to about 200 million Americans taking the advice and guidance of the US government and regulatory agencies. Anyone who takes the advice of the FDA and CDC is venturing down a rabbit hole of dangerous, experimental medications and pesticide-laden, processed GMO food, all of which fuels the chronic sick care industry of America. To rub salt in that ‘long term’ wound, the economy is quickly crashing and burning (by design), causing consumers and patients to spend even more of the quickly-dwindling money they have left. Misinformation is at an all-time high, and it’s mostly thanks to the FDA, the CDC, and the highly corrupt Biden Regime. Let’s take a closer look.
The combination of major issues Americans face today is leading to mass casualties and apocalyptic situations. None of these problems are accidental or caused by natural forces, but rather are well-planned and executed by corrupt corporations, government agencies, and of course, Big Pharma.
Chronic inflammation, for example, has always been a problem for the majority of Americans who eat processed food daily, drink tap water, take prescription drugs, and get every vaccine the CDC recommends. Now, the Fauci Flu clot shots are clogging the vascular system of hundreds of millions of ‘patients’ with spike proteins that exacerbate health problems to the fullest extent.
Now the FDA and CDC are pushing these dangerous, experimental gene therapy injections for children, babies, and pregnant women alike. This will surely skyrocket the ‘sudden death syndrome’ that’s sweeping the nation, and the ‘spontaneous abortions’ that are supposedly unexplainable by doctors.
The majority of Americans are still falling for the age-old, lying mantra about vaccines that they are “safe and effective,” when they are actually very dangerous and ineffective.
Supply chain issues are all by design, thanks to COVID-19 lockdowns, factory shutdowns, fires, explosions, and employee firings over non-compliance with illegal vaccine mandates. This is driving the cost of everything through the roof, and most families can barely afford their energy bills, mortgage, rent, food, medicine, fuel, and other basic necessities and supplies.
Life and living is hard enough without the government purposely wrecking every working system around. Worried about the pandemic? Don’t get “vaccinated” with protein prions that clog your blood and cleansing organs. Tough to pay the bills because taxes are high and pay is low? Inflation is only worsening by the day, so there’s no relief there. Trying to eat healthy to boost your immune system? Good luck. The US government is trying to transition everyone to eating only lab-concocted food that causes cancer, so no help there. Trying to run a business so you can be your own boss and retire early? The Biden Regime is trying to bankrupt all private businesses using COVID-19 as an excuse while choking out the supply chain and printing trillions of dollars to wreck the economy. No help there. In fact, it’s just the opposite – pure decimation of every working system.
#1. Pushing toxic, blood-clotting, spike protein injections for everyone, including babies
#2. Ending all domestic fossil fuel production
#3. Burning and exploding food factories and fertilizer plants
#4. Blocking and suffocating the supply chain in order to usher in lab-made food
#5. Printing and laundering trillions of dollars that drive inflation through the roof
#6. Censoring all information that protects the health and safety of Americans
#7. Fostering the biggest misinformation campaign ever about war and vaccines

(Natural News) South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem blasted President Joe Biden anew over his administration’s lack of an effective policy regarding the nation’s food supply.
Noem in particular lashed out at Biden for allowing foreign adversaries to buy up massive amounts of American farmland.
“I have been talking about food security as a national security issue for about 15 years now, being involved in farming and ranching,” she told Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM. “I was very young when I started working on federal policy, because the United States has always embraced a policy where we believed it was important to grow our own food in this country, and I’m a strong believer that when another country controls our food supply, that’s when they truly control us.”
“If we think a pandemic was scary, wait until we realize that we can’t put food on the grocery store shelves because China controls the entire system, and what most of America hasn’t been paying attention to, is that China — for years — has been buying up our chemical companies, our fertilizer companies, our processing systems, and now they’re buying land, and we have foreign countries that are heavily invested in that entire supply system,” she continued.
“We are losing control of the ability to feed our people and that’s what is challenging us today,” the GOP governor noted further. “We finally are waking up to that, but it is going to be a serious situation that this administration needs to recognize they have a huge role in, and all they’ve done is strengthen our enemies and given them more ability to control our food supply which puts us in a very precarious situation as a country.”
Noem said being able to grow up and live in a smaller community rather than a big city gives her, and those like her, a much better perspective on life as well as a stronger sense of community.
“[I benefit from] an incredible perspective that so many people in this country don’t get to have and they don’t realize how much they need it — that interaction and sense of community, and people who wave when they drive by on the road and stop and smile and ask how your day is going — is what keeps us human,” she said.
“It feeds our souls and it helps our mental health as well. I think so many people are constantly challenged with the busyness, the noise, and the lack of personal interaction that happens many times in big cities,” Noem, who has been mentioned as a potential 2024 GOP presidential contender or running mate, elaborated.
“[It] really does affect them long-term, and it would be good for everybody to get out and be in the country, and being in smaller towns where people can relax and just understand that we’re all a part of humanity, and we were all created to love each other,” she said.
As for control of America’s food sources and production, she told Newsmax TV’s Eric Bolling on Friday: ”Our food supply is our national security policy. It just is. For years, I’ve been watching foreign countries, other entities that are not friends of the United States, buy up our fertilizer companies, our chemical companies, our processing systems, and those entities.”
”Now we see other people buying hundreds of thousands of acres of land; and, listen, many times it is foreign entities in some of these states as well. So we have countries like China that own all these different pieces, and they’re not dummies,” she continued.
“They know that when they control our food supply, they control us. So this is a national security policy issue that the American people need to be aware of,” Noem added.
”We’ve always had in the United States of America a priority of keeping a safe and affordable food supply that’s diversified, so one person or one country doesn’t control it. We are losing that. We’re losing that on Joe Biden’s watch, and it is a concern for us, our country, and for those families out there that are looking to feed their kids every week when they go to the grocery store,” the governor said.

(Natural News) Food and other consumer goods are no longer making their way from point A to point B in the United States, which faces crippling supply chain bottlenecks that threaten to cause mass starvation.
The latest complaint comes from the livestock industry, which says it is just days away from an animal feed crisis if rail lines fail to get their act together, and quickly.
According to reports, many feed users in California and other southwestern states are having to pay $3 more than the CBOT (Chicago Board of Trade) price to secure grain shipments by truck as rail bottlenecks are not only not improving, but in some cases worsening.
AgWeb says that not only are feed users on the brink of running out of grain entirely but there are also widespread concerns that, come autumn during harvest time, the situation will be exponentially worse.
Members of the National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) say that the issues they now face really started ramping up late last winter and early spring. This prompted the Surface Transportation Board (STB) to hold a hearing about the matter, but so far nothing has improved.
The hope was that once summer arrived, the situation would resolve itself at least somewhat. Instead, the problem has worsened, including labor issues that are getting worse, not better.
“What I’m hearing from our members is fewer equipment issues and that the equipment and engines seem to be not breaking down, but the train times – the amount of time it’s taking to get the trains – and the reliability of receiving them is still quite a problem in quite a few areas of the country,” said Mike Seyfert, President, and CEO of NGFA.
Just to be clear, these are not necessarily just small food providers who are unable to secure feed shipments due to being smaller players. Even large players like Foster Farms, the largest chicken producer in the western U.S., are having trouble.
According to reports, Foster Farms recently asked federal regulators to issue an emergency service calling on the Union Pacific (UP) railroad to prioritize corn shipments to feed its thousands of heads of dairy cattle and millions of chickens and turkeys.
“The point has been reached when millions of chickens will be killed and other livestock will suffer because of UP’s service failures,” the company wrote in its request to the STB this week.
The fact that Foster Farms had to ask for an emergency directive towards this end reveals the seriousness of the issue, according to Seyfert.
“At times in the past several months, we have heard from more than one member that has had severe difficulty getting feed, sometimes being within several hours of being short,” he is quoted as saying.
AgWeb says that the biggest problem in this whole scenario revolves around labor. There are simply not enough people willing or available to work – are Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” partially to blame for this, we wonder?
According to NGFA, railroads were already down about 25 percent in staffing prior to the plandemic, and now they are much worse in terms of maintaining a reliable and large enough workforce.
Also this week, 51 members of the U.S. House of Representatives signed a letter calling on the STB to deal with the systemic issues that continue to plague America’s failing railway systems. You can read that letter at AgWeb.com.

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh dropped by Morton’s Steakhouse in downtown Washington, D.C., for dinner Wednesday night, but it didn’t turn out to be a pleasant evening: Kavanaugh was spotted, Leftist protesters appeared, and the justice had to leave through the back door. A Morton’s representative then issued a statement saying that politics shouldn’t intrude on one’s “right to eat dinner,” and for Leftist Twitter, it was off to the races. “The right to eat dinner”? Why, that isn’t in the Constitution, and therefore does not exist!
Politico was likewise cheered at the prospect of Leftist thugs forcing Kavanaugh to flee Morton’s, heading its notice of the incident “Happy Friday” and adding: “Thanks for reading Playbook. Drop us a line with your best constitutional argument for the right to eat dinner.” Politico then provided email addresses for three of its “journalists”: Rachael Bade, Eugene Daniels, and Ryan Lizza.
The “constitutional argument for the right to eat dinner” business comes from Morton’s response to the incident, which began, Politico said, when “D.C. protesters targeting the conservative Supreme Court justices who signed onto the Dobbs decision overturning the constitutional right to abortion got a tip that Justice Brett Kavanaugh was dining at Morton’s downtown D.C. location. Protesters soon showed up out front, called the manager to tell him to kick Kavanaugh out, and later tweeted that the justice was forced to exit through the rear of the restaurant.” Note the manipulative wording: Politico assumes that there is a “constitutional right to abortion” that was overturned when there never actually was such a right, and the claim that there was never had any justification in the Constitution at all. This is how the Leftist media attempts to control the narrative.
Politico went farther than that, sneering at Kavanaugh despite the fact that he was the victim of the incident. If Sonia Sotomayor had been the Justice who was thus harassed, would Politico’s coverage have been different? Like night and day. But in this case, Politico continued, “Daniel Lippman looked into the incident for us and confirmed that account. While the court had no official comment on Kavanaugh’s behalf and a person familiar with the situation said he did not hear or see the protesters and ate a full meal but left before dessert, Morton’s was outraged about the incident.” And here is where the real fun began: “A rep for the chain steakhouse sent Lippman this statement: ‘Honorable Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh and all of our other patrons at the restaurant were unduly harassed by unruly protestors while eating dinner at our Morton’s restaurant. Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner. There is a time and place for everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.”

Was the Morton’s rep making a statement about constitutional rights? Of course not. He or she was making a statement about common decency, a virtue that is in alarmingly short supply among Leftists. But in using the word “right” in connection with Kavanaugh’s natural right to enjoy a meal in peace, Morton’s rep gave Leftist commentators what they thought was an opening. MSNBC’s Katie S. Phang tweeted: “‘The right to eat dinner.’ Sounds like a privacy right not identified or listed in the Constitution so therefore, it doesn’t exist.” Another Leftist “journalist,” Judd Legum, tweeted an implicit call for boycotts of restaurants that had the temerity to let conservatives eat: “.@Mortons is owned by billionaire @TilmanJFertitta Fertitta also owns @RainForest_Cafe, @McandSchmicks, @BubbaGumpCo, and numerous other chains.” If such boycotts materialize, that would be just fine with the fascists of ShutDownDC, who tweeted: “We hear Kavanaugh snuck out the back with his security detail. @mortons should be ashamed for welcoming a man who so clearly hates women.”
The reactions from Politico and the Leftist journalists, and numerous other Leftists on Twitter, show that the Left is embracing totalitarianism at a rapid clip and that all too many Leftists are just fine with the idea that if you hold political opinions that they deem unacceptable, you should be harassed and hounded anywhere and everywhere, presumably until you’re simply too exhausted to continue to dissent from their agenda. “Inside every progressive,” ex-progressive David Horowitz has said, “is a totalitarian screaming to get out.” They’re out, they’re out.

(Natural News) As food inflation worsens, a sense of desperation is seizing the minds of the American people, and some of them are lashing out in acts of violence against workers at grocery stores and other food retail locations. America is now seeing a shocking rise in retail location violence that seems destined to only get worse.
Joe Biden’s catastrophic economic and energy policies have led to a 400% increase in the price of fertilizer, a 100% increase in the price of diesel fuel, supply chain disruptions, and food production shortfalls. Even infant formula has been in a supply chain crisis, and the cost of agricultural inputs today means far higher prices in the coming months.
The result is record-high food inflation that keeps getting worse. Higher costs of food gobble up higher percentages of discretionary incomes for consumers, hitting low-income consumers especially hard. When food prices rise to the point of requiring 50% of a person’s income just to eat, history tells us that societies break down and lurch into uprisings and revolts.
Now, even the New York Times (via Yahoo News) is covering the trend, reporting that violence against grocery and retail workers is exploding:
In her 37 years in the grocery industry, said Kim Cordova, a union president in Colorado, she had never experienced the level of violence that her members face today.
“What happened with COVID?” said Cordova, president of Local 7 of the United Food and Commercial Workers. “People have changed. Sometimes I wonder if I am living in a Netflix movie. This can’t be real.”
But it is real, just as food inflation is real. Elections have consequences and rigged elections have catastrophic consequences because the criminals who stole the election never had the backing of the American people. So they destroyed the economy, shut down energy infrastructure, set fire to food production facilities and diluted the value of the dollar through haphazard money printing. The result? Fewer and fewer Americans can afford to pay for basic necessities like food.
Grocery chains are tired of being ransacked by criminals, especially when those criminals are protected by left-wing District Attorneys in blue cities where criminals are granted a kind of “left-wing privilege” to loot and steal whatever they want.
“These criminals feel like they own the store,” said Tony Settles, a clerk at a Safeway in downtown Denver.
Now, many grocery workers and grocery chains want to fight back. From that same story:
The union negotiated a contract that ensures workers have the right to defend themselves if a customer attacks them. It is a grim acknowledgment of not only the violence plaguing many facets of American society but the increasing unwillingness of retail employees to keep turning the other cheek to crime in their stores.
This is all the result, of course, of what happens when you abandon the idea that criminals should be stopped and arrested rather than allowed to continue stealing. When retail establishments are told that shoplifting is essentially legalized — and that’s exactly the case in many left-wing cities — they are paralyzed and can’t do anything to stop the continued thefts. Even when thieves threaten or attack store employees, retail establishments are told to back down because criminals are granted high privilege in a progressive society.
They can do almost anything they want, without any consequences. They essentially exhibit what left-wing propagandists call “white privilege,” but in this case, most of the thieves aren’t white.
As the NYT explains:
From 2018 to 2020, assaults reported to the FBI by law enforcement agencies overall rose 42%; they increased 63% in grocery stores and 75% in convenience stores.
Those numbers will keep rising until retail store owners and employees start defending their lives and their property. This is easily accomplished with firearms, of course, but leftists are also irrationally anti-gun, and they don’t want store managers being armed. They would apparently rather dial 911 and wait around while the cops do nothing and the thieves assault their employees.
“While the political debate swirls about the extent of the crime and its causes, many of the people staffing the stores say retailers have been too permissive of crime, particularly theft. Some employees want more armed security guards who can take an active role in stopping theft,” says the NYT. But once again, “progressives” hate the idea of using security guards, both in grocery stores and in schools. They would rather post, “Gun-free zone” signs and pretend that signage stops shootings. This is equivalent to pretending that men can get pregnant. If your beliefs are rooted in fantasy and delusion, you’re not going to have much success dealing with reality. (And no, men don’t have periods and don’t need tampons, either.)
The reality is that as food inflation gets far worse, grocery and convenience store employees are going to face a rising number of violent attacks. We expect to see flash mob looting of grocery stores before the end of this year, and food prices are no doubt going to continue to climb to alarming levels in 2023 and possibly beyond.
It’s now abundantly obvious that as food prices skyrocket, grocery stores are going to be hit with a wave of violent attackers who are desperate to feed themselves and their families. As the attacks intensify, many food retailers will simply decide to close up shop in high-risk areas. This, in turn, will deprive law-abiding customers of access to food, only worsening food scarcity and panic, leading to an expanding wave of desperation and lawlessness.
Perhaps defunding the police in blue cities wasn’t the best idea after all. And voting George Soros-funded DAs into power — who routinely set criminals free instead of charging them — is backfiring badly.
When honest people are starving, they tend to do radical things they wouldn’t normally do. When dishonest people are starving, they go completely off the reservation and are willing to threaten or harm almost anyone to acquire food. We are going to see society collapse into its most animalistic tendencies as this food scarcity crisis unfolds, and the blue cities where most inhabitants reject Christian values and despise morality and ethics are going to be hit the hardest.
Personally, I expect to see many blue cities burning before the end of this year, and 2023 maybe even worse. I also expect to see food riots, food rationing, and price controls.
Right now, the importance of growing your own food can’t be overstated. My friend Marjory Wildcraft teaches these skills at ICanGrowFood.com, as she’s an expert at growing food when it really counts. Sadly, most Americans don’t know how to grow food. Very few have stockpiled any real food supplies, either, so the “perfect storm” is set for the oblivious masses to be plunged into total panic as food inflation and food scarcity both worsen with shocking speed.

(Natural News) The United States of America is about to be plunged into a civil war. It will be ignited by the imminent Roe vs. Wade nullification decision by the US Supreme Court, which also just rendered a landmark decision affirming the universal right to carry a personal firearm for self-defense (striking down the New York law that radically restricted the right to bear arms).
That pro-2A decision is already seeing heads explode across the anti-American, anti-liberty Left, with rabid left-wing commentator Keith Olbermann even calling for an open insurrection to demolish the US Supreme Court and seize total control over the country via the executive branch.
Once the Roe decision is rendered, the radical Left will erupt into full-blown domestic terrorism, launching unrestricted warfare against Christians, gun owners, and conservatives. What’s coming will make the 2020 BLM and Antifa riots look like child’s play.
The Biden regime knows this is coming, of course, since Barack Obama is the key mastermind behind the whole thing. Obama runs the Biden White House and tells Biden’s handlers what to do. They shaped the 2020 riots using paid mercenaries, media propaganda, and “color revolution” tactics routinely used by the CIA to overthrow governments of other nations. Now they plan to use the same tactics to overthrow the US Constitution and attempt to seize permanent dictatorial control over the United States of America.
The sabotage of food facilities across the United States is deliberate. We have published the full, current list of food facility sabotage here.
Similarly, the sabotage attacks, regulatory takedowns and cyber warfare assaults on energy infrastructure are also being carried out by the regime in order to deprive the people of fuel and transportation. As we have recently published, the entire supply of diesel engine oil in the United States is on track to be depleted in just 8 weeks (roughly the end of August).
Diesel fuel and Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) are also experiencing supply chain failures in America right now.
Natural News also exclusively researched and published a list of the diesel fuel and diesel engine oil additive manufacturers who have declared force majeure just this year, causing extreme supply chain disruptions.
In addition, there are known explosions at LNG facilities (such as Freeport in Texas) and a history of pipe explosions targeting refineries, such as the Philadelphia Energy Solutions explosion in 2019 that bankrupted the entire company and shuttered its fuel refinery.
What’s clear is that America’s food and energy infrastructure is being disrupted by sabotage/blockade operations that are acts of war against the American people. This is almost identical to the way Lithuania is now running a railway blockade of Russia’s access to Kaliningrad.
What’s also clear is that the Obama / Biden regime is using sabotage operations to shape the domestic battlefield in preparation for the coming civil war. And by “civil war,” I don’t mean an 1865-style war of North vs. South. This is going to be a war of the corrupt, illegitimate government regime against the American people who are trying to vote these criminals out of power. Roughly 75% of Americans now despise the Biden regime and want Biden removed. The upcoming midterm elections — if they are even allowed to take place — will solidly demonstrate America’s desire to rid itself of the disastrous Biden regime and the catastrophic economic policies of Democrats (which have led to record-high inflation and supply chain shortages).
That’s why we believe the Obiden regime doesn’t want to allow America to make it to the midterm elections. They want total chaos and martial law before that day arrives. They want their left-wing brownshirt terrorists in the streets, burning down cities, assaulting police, and executing whites on sight, so the regime can declare a state of
emergency and deploy troops on the streets of America, likely combined with some effort to try to nullify the Second Amendment and confiscate guns from everyone.
That effort is going to fail.
The Obiden regime has acted too late. The American people will no longer comply with tyranny and sabotage. We the People will not turn in our guns, and we will not obey orders to shut down our local economies and stay locked in our homes.
But the arrogant, incompetent Obiden regime doesn’t know that yet. They think they are still in charge. They think the American people will go along with whatever new insane scheme they can dream up to enslave everybody and demolish the Bill of Rights. They are wrong. But they will try to conquer the country from within, setting off a civil war scenario that will likely see real bloodshed across the USA.
Unless Biden is removed from power and the rightful winner of the 2020 election is restored (Donald J. Trump), Democrat-run cities will soon collapse into total chaos. Mass starvation will become commonplace. The rule of law will be non-existent in these areas. We will see Democrat refugees fleeing collapsing blue cities and trying to flee to red states, but there will be border enforcement by the states (like Texas and Florida) prohibiting domestic “illegals” from invading the red states as they flee the blue states.
Ultimately, the Demonrats are going to be defeated and humanity will prevail. The Dems just don’t know it yet, and they overestimate their ally Satan, while the real power to decide our fate rests in the hands of God (who has just about had enough of Satan trying to dominate humanity on Earth).
