YOU WILL EAT BUGS AND BE HAPPY: Wales now feeding schoolchildren mealworms and crickets for lunch as part of the Great Reset rollout
BY ETHAN HUFF

(Natural News) As promised, the global “elite” are unveiling their new meatless food system for the peons, starting with schoolchildren in the United Kingdom.
A new pilot program in Wales has replaced all meat on school lunch plates with “plant-based” and insect-based alternatives, including “spaghetti with beetle Bolognese.”
Crickets and mealworms make up a bulk of the food items now being fed to Wales schoolchildren, who are being treated like animals rather than humans. Instead of getting human food, these children are now consuming food items better fit for chickens and reptiles.
The globalists, as reported by the Rair Foundation “intend to motivate students and parents to get away from meat to protect the climate.”
“In addition, they hope to brainwash five to eleven-year-old students with their environmental lies to control their food choices.”
It all centers around a new “sustainable” model of food production that deprives ordinary people of access to the things that people have eaten since the beginning of time.
This new world order food system will only allow non-meat alternatives such as soy patties, cricket lasagna, and other abominations, as decreed and dictated by those at the top of the pyramid who will never eat this same garbage themselves.
Climate change psy-op is about eliminating fossil fuels, meat, and civilization itself
The tyrants at the World Economic Forum (WEF), including Mr. “Great Reset” himself, Klaus Schwab, are finally seeing their plans come to fruition with programs such as this.
For a very long time, they and their lineages have been architecting a new world in
which humans are no longer allowed to live, eat or even breathe as they always have. And they are using the myth of “climate change” as their excuse.
Decades of global warming propaganda, which infiltrated Western schools and reprogrammed an entire generation into fearing things like carbon dioxide (CO2), is now bearing the rotten fruit that the “elite” always intended: the elimination of meat and other life-sustaining foods.
Many “plant-based” foods are little more than genetically engineered (GMO) fake foods posing as “natural.” These so-called foods are highly toxic and do not provide the same level of nutrition – if any at all – that traditional foods such as meat long have for the human race.
Not only that, but large corporations will now generate billions of dollars in new profits from the government-sponsored food campaigns that will continue to transition humanity away from real food and straight into a new plant-based, meatless Soylent reality.
“Two years ago, the European Union (EU) classified insects as ‘novel foods,'” Rair further explains. “In other words: the preparations for insect food have been underway for a long time. As a result, edible insects are increasingly sold across the EU.”
“The UK Food Safety Authority (FSA) will provisionally allow trade in edible insects in supermarkets and retailers starting in June, with full approval expected next year. Evaluation is currently underway for crickets for human consumption; mealworms are also expected to be submitted soon.”
The pilot program, which is being run by Cardiff University and the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol), includes a study that specifically aims to come up with the best approaches for “convince[ing] the young generation and their parents of edible insects’ environmental and nutritional benefits to reducing global meat consumption.”
In the end, what remains of humanity within this new meatless paradigm will be considered “sustainable citizens” that exist to perpetuate an “ethical food future.” Carl Evans, the headmaster at Roch Community Primary School in Pembrokeshire, says he is excited to “support the children in developing a sustainable and ethical citizenship.”

USA DOMESTIC food production now collapsing due to fertilizer costs, scarcity, diesel price inflation and food protectionism
BY MIKE ADAMS
SEE: https://www.naturalnews.com/2022-06-03-usa-domestic-food-production-now-collapsing.html;
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
(Natural News) When the USA and NATO countries engaged in economic warfare against Russia by de-platforming Russian banks from the SWIFT system in March, it set off a chain reaction of world events that will lead to global famine and food scarcity panic. Fertilizers and the natural gas used to manufacture fertilizer are now in short supply around the world. Many prominent food producers such as India have turned to export bans (food protectionism) to secure their own domestic supplies, worsening global food scarcity. Rising fuel costs have only added to the problems, resulting in far higher costs of farm inputs across the world.
But now America’s domestic food production is collapsing as well — and seemingly for the same reasons. Sky-high fertilizer costs, fertilizer scarcity, insanely elevated diesel fuel prices, and supply chain problems affecting agriculture equipment are all contributing to an alarming trend across America: More and more farmers are simply not planting crops.
There’s no economic reason to do so. Rising fertilizer prices make the crops a money loser from day one. Even if a farmer invests in the fertilizer, his ability to harvest and transport the resulting crops out of his own fields is increasingly questionable. Worsening the situation, drought conditions are so bad that rice farmers in California, for example, are being told by the water control authorities there that they will only be allowed 0.4-acre feet of water per acre. You can’t grow rice in less than five inches of water for the entire season.
So they’re not planting most of the rice. Only 70,000 acres are getting planted out of 450,000 acres that could be used. Worsening the shortage, California has decided to divert water into the Pacific Ocean for environmental reasons, rather than let rice farmers use the water to grow food. From that story:
“In April 2022, the water districts serving Colusa County were given their final allocation for the 2022 growing season – 0.4-acre-feet per acre,” Colusa County officials said in a statement. “This allocation is not enough to support rice production, and estimates show that the Sacramento Valley will fallow 370,000 of 450,000 acres
in the Sacramento River Settlement Contractors service area, primarily in Colusa and Glenn Counties. Currently, less than 7,000 acres are estimated to be planted in Colusa County, resulting in a direct financial loss to growers in excess of $270 million.”
As described by an editor at USSANews.com, this policy is truly insane:
As a former rice farmer in northern California, I can testify to the stupidity and insanity of environmentalists who favor obscure fish over humans. Water to farmers is now below growing levels and will cause devastation to the 2022 rice industry, taking down farmers as well as all related industries. The fact that the world is facing a major food shortage means nothing to these environmental zealots.
When Californians have no rice on their food shelves later this year, will they realize their own malicious left-wing politicians deliberately created the food scarcity emergency?
India to halt rice exports while other nations halt exports of wheat
India is also reportedly moving to halt its own rice imports, reports Bloomberg.com, unleashing a “devastating” food scarcity scenario with worldwide implications. According to Bloomberg, India accounts for 40% of the global rice trade. From that story:
Rice may be India’s next food protectionism target after it restricted wheat and sugar exports, analysts say, a move that could have a devastating impact on global food security as it’s an important staple.
India’s curbs on wheat and sugar exports sent shock waves through global markets as it marked an escalation in food protectionism that’s seen countries choke off flows of locally-grown supplies to the world. A similar move on rice by the No. 1 exporter at a time when crops like wheat and corn are soaring would threaten to plunge millions more into hunger and boost inflation risks.
According to the India Times, Hungary has banned wheat exports, and nations like Argentina, Bulgaria, and Turkey are working toward outright bans of crop exports in order to meet their domestic needs.
All across the world, crop yields are collapsing and food supplies are dwindling. International trade is being strangled and domestic supplies are becoming more scarce and far more expensive.
It’s all deliberate, driven by destructive USA / NATO policies that strive for famine and collapse
Nearly all the problems with food scarcity and food inflation are driven entirely by malicious policy decisions stemming from the arrogant USA and oblivious NATO nation “leaders” who have lost all ability to recognize economic principles (or who actually want mass starvation and depopulation).
Together, the USA and NATO nations de-platformed Russia from trading in crops, fertilizer, and natural gas, setting off this chain reaction of scarcity and unprecedented price increases for farm inputs, setting into motion a global starvation scenario that will worsen for years to come. Even if Russia were suddenly re-platformed back into the SWIFT system tomorrow, the damage to the food supply for 2022 – 2023 has already been done.
Mass starvation will burn through the world’s developing nations for the next two years, and even in first-world nations, working-class citizens will find themselves spending higher and higher portions of their incomes on basic food supplies.
This will, of course, lead to food riots. It’s all by design. The idea is to cause mass chaos and martial law in America before the mid-term elections. In order to achieve that, the corrupt, illegitimate Biden regime had to whip up war with Russia, unleash economic protectionism across the globe, shut down fertilizer shipments in the USA, drastically raise fuel prices by shutting down pipelines, and engineer a food scarcity emergency by making sure the USDA keeps paying farmers to destroy crops and destroy tractors (in exchange for USDA payouts, of course).
Food industry transport workers are sitting on their hands in Florida
Yesterday a source informed me that food industry transport workers in Florida who would normally be working 16-hour days right now — transporting tomatoes, peppers, melons, fruit, and other crops out of Florida — are sitting on their hands with zero work. There are virtually no crops to transport in this particular area of Florida where 10,000+ acre farms are common. The fields weren’t planted, and there are no crops to harvest.
These crops normally supply restaurants and grocery stores across the entire Eastern half of the United States. Now, they have nothing, and the farmers have no reason to even plant anything until fertilizer and diesel prices come down.
Official crop yield statistics haven’t yet caught up to this reality, but once Florida reports its crop yields for June, the numbers are going to be catastrophic.
The oblivious masses of America will see grocery shelves going increasingly bare beginning in August, then accelerating through the end of the year. Long before the mid-terms, many American families will be in a panic over food and fuel prices. Yet the worst is still to come because 2023 will be disastrous as food and fuel become increasingly scarce and expensive.
We will see food riots in America before the end of this year, and we will almost certainly see serious food rationing in 2023, possibly followed by “food passport” rationing cards or other schemes designed to limit how much food the public is allowed to buy.
“Joe Biden’s national weight loss plan” is about to become a reality as Americans face real famine and civil unrest. This is what happens when you allow Democrats to steal elections and place incompetent criminals in power. When the traitor Mike Pence refused to do his job on January 6 — and the FBI ran another false flag insurrection op — this is what you get: A nation being dismantled as an act of economic warfare carried out against the people of America by radical left-wing Marxists like Obama and corrupt criminal families like the Bidens and the Clintons.

Glazov Gang: When Pets Replace Babies
This new Glazov Gang episode features Rabbi Chananya Weissman, the author of hundreds of articles and seven books on a wide range of subjects. His work can be found at ChananyaWeissman.com and rumble.com/c/c-782463. He can be contacted at endthemadness@gmail.com.
Rabbi Weissman discusses When Pets Replace Babies, reflecting on: Are all the pics of couples with only their pets indicative of something?
MICHELLE EGGER, FOUNDER & CEO:
JUNE 2020 - Bill Gates announced a startup called BIOMILQ. It’s backed by some of the richest investors in the world, like Zuckerburg. It raised $3.5 million in Series A funding from Breakthrough Energy Ventures. Breakthrough Energy Ventures is Bill Gates's investment firm focused on climate change.
SEPTEMBER 2020 - Remember that $3.5 million in BIOMILQ money? Well, according to a receipt from the Gates Foundation, it paid The Guardian $3.5 million in September 2020. This was an initial offering from the Gates Foundation. Of course, right after on September 27, the Guardian published an article entitled “Antibodies in breast milk remain for 10 months after Covid infection – study.”
February 2022 - Customs and Border Patrol officers said that they inspected 17 separate shipments of formulas that came from Europe. Border patrol consulted with the FDA. Of course, the FDA said it had safety concerns about non-compliant baby formula. The same month, the FDA announces it is looking into bacterial contamination at the Abbott formula production plant in Michigan that's supposedly behind the baby formula shortage.
MAY 2022 - The Gates Foundation paid the Guardian again as part of annual funding. The very next day, The Guardian wasted no time and published a hit piece on breastfeeding. It’s called “Turns out breastfeeding really does hurt - why does no one tell you?”

Fake Meat, Fake Breastmilk, and Food Shortages
BY DR. JOSEPH MERCOLA
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
Story at-a-glance
- Bill Gates appears to be behind the push to stop breastfeeding and encourage uptake of BIOMILQ, a cell-cultured “human milk” made in a lab, along with other varieties of fake food
- Nearly every large meat and dairy processor/manufacturer has also acquired or developed plant-based meat and dairy substitutes
- This “protein” industry convergence is jeopardizing the resilience of the food system and reducing the genetic diversity of livestock and crops
- When you factor in soy production as well as the use of conventional energy sources, lab-grown meat may be worse for the environment than conventionally produced chicken and pork
- There are signs that the fake meat industry may be failing before it ever gets off the ground; shares of Beyond Meat lost $6 billion since March 2020 due to weak sales growth
- To save the planet and support your health, skip all the fake meat alternatives and opt for real food that’s being raised using regenerative, grass-fed methods
Fake food is being poised as a panacea to end world hunger and food shortages, but there’s nothing miraculous about synthetic, lab-made food. It can’t compare to food that comes from nature in terms of nutrition or environmental protection, and as we’re seeing with the mysterious infant formula shortages, when you’re dependent on fake food, your very survival is also dependent on the handful of companies that manufacture them.
With parents getting desperate in the search for infant formula, it’s eye-opening that campaigns haven’t been started to encourage new mothers to breastfeed — the best food for infants and one that also happens to be free and readily available in most cases. If you haven’t read my article on the best workaround for infant formula for those that are unable to breastfeed, it is on Substack.
In the video above, you can watch a concerning timeline about why this may be, as Bill Gates appears to be behind the push to stop breastfeeding and encourage uptake of BIOMILQ, a cell-cultured “human milk” made in a lab,1 along with other varieties of fake food.
Bill Gates’ Formula for Disaster
In June 2020, Bill Gates announced the startup company BIOMILQ, which is using biotechnology to create lab-made human milk for babies. Using mammary epithelial cells placed in flasks with cell culture media, the cells grow and are placed in a bioreactor that the company says “recreates conditions similar to in the breast.”2
This synthetic lab-made breast milk replacement raised $3.5 million in funding from Gates’ investment firm Breakthrough Energy Ventures.3 Gates has also contributed at least $319 million to the media,4 including The Guardian, allowing him to control and dictate what they print. The day after the Gates Foundation paid The Guardian its annual funding in May 2022, it released a hit piece on breastfeeding titled, “Turns out breastfeeding really does hurt — why does no one tell you?”5
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) offers also seized 588 cases of infant formula from Europe in April 2021 because it lacked appropriate nutritional labeling. In February 2021, CBP officers said they inspected 17 separate shipments of infant formula from Germany and The Netherlands, leading to a warning against buying infant formula online from overseas.
At the time, Keith Fleming, CBP’s acting director of field operations in Baltimore, Maryland, said in a news release:6
“Consumers should be very careful when contemplating the purchase of items over the internet from an international source, because they may not get what they expect. People expect that the products they purchase comply with existing U.S. health and safety laws and regulations and they’ll be safe for them or their family. That’s not always the case.”
While warning Americans against purchasing infant formula from overseas, in February 2022 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced bacterial contamination at the Abbott Nutrition’s Sturgis, Michigan facility,7 which is behind the current infant formula shortages. While Gates is clearly behind the push to stop breastfeeding and encourage BIOMILQ in lieu of breastmilk or formula, the formula shortages highlight the risks of consolidated food production.
Abbott Enriched Shareholders While Formula Sickened Babies
Corporate consolidation is rampant in the U.S. baby formula market, of which 90% is controlled by four companies. Abbot is among them, responsible for 43% of baby formula production in the U.S.8 Yet, according to a whistleblower filing from October 2021, equipment at the company’s Sturgis facility was “failing and in need of repair.”
Pitting and pinholes reportedly existed in a number of pipes, allowing bacterial contamination. Leadership was aware of the failing equipment for up to seven years before the February 2022 outbreak, according to the whistleblower’s report.9
With equipment in need of repair, and a bacteria outbreak in their formula sickening babies, Abbott used its massive profits from 2019 to 2021 to announce a lucrative stock buyback program.10 According to The Guardian:11
“Abbott detected bacteria eight times as its net profits soared by 94% between 2019 and 2021. And just as its tainted formula allegedly began sickening a number of babies, with two deaths reported, the company increased dividends to shareholders by over 25% while announcing a stock buyback program worth $5bn.”
Speaking with The Guardian, Rakeen Mabud, chief economist for the Groundwork Collaborative, added, “Abbott chose to prioritize shareholders by issuing billions of dollars in stock buybacks instead of making productive investments.”12
Big Meat and Dairy Companies Dominate Fake Meat Industry
The increasing number of plant-based fake foods and lab-grown meat companies give the illusion that consumers are getting more choices and the food industry is becoming less consolidated. However, there are still relatively few firms that are controlling the global grab for “protein” markets.
In a research article published in Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, Philip Howard, a faculty member in the department of community sustainability at Michigan State University, and colleagues explain how this “protein” industry convergence is further jeopardizing the resilience of the food system and reducing the genetic diversity of livestock and crops:13
“Recent years have seen the convergence of industries that focus on higher protein foods, such as meat processing firms expanding into plant-based substitutes and/or cellular meat production, and fisheries firms expanding into aquaculture. A driving force behind these changes is dominant firms seeking to increase their power relative to close competitors, including by extending beyond boundaries that pose constraints to growth.
The broad banner of “protein” offers a promising space to achieve this goal, despite its nutritionally reductionist focus on a single macronutrient. Protein firm strategies to increase their dominance are likely to further diminish equity in food systems by exacerbating power asymmetries.”
Tyson and Cargill, two of the largest meat processors in the world, for instance, have invested in fake meat company Memphis Meats, which also has backing from Bill Gates and Richard Branson. Other billionaires who invested in fake foods include Sergey Brin (Mosa Meat), Peter Thiel (Modern Meadow), and Marc Benioff (Eat Just).
“These companies wouldn’t be making these investments if they didn’t expect that the intellectual properties held by these start-ups will lead to monopoly profits,” Howard notes.14 In “The Politics of Protein,” a report from the International Panel of Experts on Sustainable Food Systems (IPES-Food), Howard explains:15
“Nearly every large meat and dairy processor/manufacturer has also acquired or developed plant-based meat and dairy substitutes, establishing footholds in a market that is growing approximately 20% per year.
More than a dozen of these firms have also invested in start-ups that are attempting to commercialize lab-grown meat and fish. Meanwhile, Vanguard and BlackRock — two of the world’s biggest asset management firms — have investments in almost all the largest meat, dairy, and animal feed companies.”
It is important to understand why all of these fake meat products are an absolute metabolic disaster relates to the fact that they are using vegetable fats to replace animal fats. Not only are they devoid of important vitamins like vitamin A and vitamin K2, but they are loaded with the dangerous omega-6 fat linoleic acid LA.
In some cases, they contain up to 10 to 20 times the amount found in meats, which will radically contribute to diseases like diabetes, obesity, cancer, and heart disease.
Lab-Grown Food Is an Environmental Catastrophe
The push for fake food is being made on the platform that it will somehow save the environment from the ravages of factory farming, which has devastated the environment with its concentrated animal feeding operations and monocultures. But this, too, is misleading.
In February 2021, the Good Food Institute (GFI), a nonprofit group behind the alternative protein industry, released a techno-economic analysis of cultivated meat, which was prepared by consulting firm CE Delft.16 In it, they developed a model to reduce the current costs of cultured meat production down to a point that would make it economically feasible in full-scale plants by 2030, a model they said is “feasible.”
In attempting to create cultured meat on the scale that would be necessary to feed the world, logistical problems are numerous and, possibly, insurmountable. There are waste products — catabolites — to deal with, as even cultured cells excrete waste that is toxic.
And, the oxygen and nutrients available must be adequately distributed to all the cells — something that’s difficult in a large reactor. Stirring the cells faster or adding more oxygen may help, but this can cause fatal stress to the cells.17
The environmental “benefits” are also on shaky ground when you factor in soy products as well as the use of conventional energy sources. When this is factored in, GFI’s life-cycle analysis found that cultured meat may be worse for the environment than conventionally produced chicken and pork.18,19
Farmer and historian John Lewis-Stempel also points out that the world’s farmers already produce enough food for the global population: “[A]ny discussion of global food policy needs to begin with one plain fact: there is … no actual food shortage. Already, the planet’s farmers produce enough food to cater for the projected 10 billion humans of 2050. The problem is waste and distribution.”20
Yet, the push for the creation of fake protein sources continues. In the foreword to Navdanya International’s report “False Solutions That Endanger Our Health and Damage the Planet,” Vandana Shiva also details how lab-grown foods are catastrophic for human health and the environment, as they are repeating the mistakes already made with industrial agriculture:21
“In response to the crises in our food system, we are witnessing the rise of technological solutions that aim to replace animal products and other food staples with lab-grown alternatives. Artificial food advocates are reiterating the old and failed rhetoric that industrial agriculture is essential to feed the world.
Real, nutrient-rich food is gradually disappearing, while the dominant industrial agricultural model is causing an increase in chronic diseases and exacerbating climate change. The notion that high-tech, “farm free” lab food is a viable solution to the food crisis is simply a continuation of the same mechanistic mindset which has brought us to where we are today — the idea that we are separate from and outside of nature.
Industrial food systems have reduced food to a commodity, to “stuff” that can then be constituted in the lab. In the process, both the planet’s health and our health have been nearly destroyed.”
Signs the Fake Meat Industry Is Stalling
For all of its fanfare, there are signs that the fake meat industry may be failing before it ever gets off the ground. Shares of Beyond Meat, for one example, lost $6 billion since March 2020 due to weak sales growth and has resorted to partnering with PepsiCo to release a plant-based jerky product.
“My analysis is the launch will do very little to increase the company’s fortunes,” writes business development consultant Victor Martino in Just Food.22 He argues that the “plant-based meat revolution” is just a PR stunt, a narrative that’s set to implode:23
“The fact is, despite increased product availability in terms of brand choices and added retail outlets, plant-based meat sales stalled in 2021, recording zero growth, according to recent research from SPINS, data commissioned and released by The Plant-Based Foods Association and The Good Food Institute.
According to the research, the total annual sales of plant-based meat in the US remained stable at $1.4 billion. That’s a continuation of the 1.4% share of total meat category sales.”
Shares of Beyond Meat and Oatly, a plant-based milk substitute, have lost more than half their value in 2022,24 but this isn’t to say that their executives are suffering. Beyond Meat’s former chief growth officer Chuck Muth sold shares valued at more than $62 million from 2019 to 2021, while Biz Stone, a current board member, and Twitter co-founder, has made millions on Beyond Meat stock.25
The fact remains that when private companies control the food supply, they will also ultimately control countries and entire populations. Biotech will eventually push farmers and ranchers out of the equation and will threaten food security and human health. In other words, the work being done in the name of sustainability and saving the planet will give greater control to private corporations while weakening the population.
To save the planet and support your health, skip all the fake meat alternatives and opt for real food that’s being raised the right way instead. When you shop for food, know your farmer and look for regenerative, biodynamic, and/or grass-fed farming methods, which are bringing you truly sustainable food for a healthy population and planet.

Get Ready for $1 Per Egg: USDA Forecast Predicts Highest Food Inflation Since 1980
BY STACEY LENNOX
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
The topic of inflation is in the news nearly every day and is now the top concern among voters in most polls. Things are likely to get even worse.
Most Americans are familiar with the all-items Consumer Price Index (CPI). This metric is based on changes for all consumer goods and services. However, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Economic Research Service measures the changes to retail food prices only. The agency’s May Food Price Outlook should add to voter concerns.
While the all-items CPI for April was 8.3%, food alone increased by 9.4%, according to the USDA. Food consumed at home also increased more than the price of food away from home. Grocery store and supermarket purchases rose 10.8% year over year in April. The USDA’s forecast for May predicts the cost of food will increase again and significantly by fall.
All of the crises the Biden administration created are converging and could cause food insecurity for the first time in the living memories of many Americans. Biden’s “Not in My Backyard” energy policy halted domestic fossil fuel production while he still begs some of the worst regimes in the world to drill more oil. That leads to higher fuel costs with or without Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. And higher fuel costs impact farm operations and all forms of transportation.
Putin’s adventurism has caused fertilizer prices to skyrocket. Nearly all of the input costs of growing and harvesting the food and then getting it to the shelf in your store are rising the same way the price at the gas pump is.
Issues beyond the control of the administration are compounding the problems it has caused. For example, a highly pathogenic avian flu has affected approximately 38 million chickens. The price of eggs increased 10.3% in April. The UDSA predicts an increase between 19.5% and 20.5% year over year in 2022. That could mean $1.00 an egg. Poultry prices will rise as much as 9.5%.

Fish and seafood are rising rapidly too. The prices in April were 11.9% over the same month in April of 2021. Dairy consumption is up, and prices followed the trend with a 2.4% increase in April alone. Predictions for both categories were revised upward to 7-8% for 2022. Other proteins are getting more expensive too:
Prices for other meats had the largest increase within the “meats” category—2.2 percent—in April 2022. In 2022, pork prices are predicted to increase between 6.0 and 7.0 percent and other meat prices are predicted to increase between 9.0 and 10.0 percent. The aggregate categories of meats, poultry, and fish are predicted to increase between 7.0 and 8.0 percent, and meats are predicted to increase between 6.5 and 7.5 percent in 2022.
The USDA report goes on to provide predicted 2022 price increases for several prepared and commodity food categories:
Following large price increases in January–April 2022, forecast ranges for fats and oils, fresh fruits, cereal and bakery products, nonalcoholic beverages, and other foods have been adjusted upward. In 2022 compared with 2021, fats and oil prices are predicted to increase between 10.0 and 11.0 percent in 2022; fresh fruit prices between 8.5 and 9.5 percent; cereal and bakery product prices between 7.0 and 8.0 percent; nonalcoholic beverage prices between 7.0 and 8.0 percent; and other food prices between 7.5 and 8.5 percent.
All of the predictions in the May report from the USDA are subject to upward revision. The current projections are the highest increases since the last year of the Carter administration. In 1980, the price of food increased by 8.59%. Since then, 2.95% is the average annual inflation for food. This year we see a similar rise for some types of food in a single month.
Perhaps that is why the Biden administration is desperately trying to deflect from the economy to other issues heading into the 2020 midterms. President Jimmy Carter only won five states as the incumbent who had presided over runaway inflation. Polls indicate President Biden’s unpopularity will significantly affect down-ballot races in the midterms. Comments like this from Biden do not help. He added food prices at the end of his remarks on fuel:
BIDEN: "The idea we're gonna be able to, you know, click a switch, bring down the cost of gasoline is not likely in the near term." pic.twitter.com/lXNtUZzzbs
— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) June 1, 2022
Americans are also not buying the Biden administration narrative that the price increases are Vladimir Putin’s fault. According to a new poll from the Convention of States Action in partnership with the Trafalgar Group, 60% of likely 2022 election voters believe President Biden’s policies and spending are the primary reason for rising inflation. This result includes 87.9% of Republican voters and 61.1% of independent voters.
These voters will be reminded of the rising costs and increasing shortages every time they go shopping. A significant majority also knows whom they blame for the problem. “Despite being told every day that Putin is responsible for virtually anything they’re not happy with–from inflation to baby formula to gas prices–a sizable majority of voters clearly believe it is President Biden and the Democrats, and not Moscow, who is responsible,” said Mark Meckler, president of Convention of States Action. “The failure of Biden’s Administration to take simple, common-sense steps to bring Americans relief is both cruel and indefensible.”
The USDA’s monthly report indicates it may feel more cruel and indefensible before voters cast their ballots in November.

(Natural News) The head of one of America’s largest and most influential financial institutions is warning that things are about to get really ugly, economically speaking.
Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan, just told a room full of analysts and investors that an “economic hurricane” is barreling straight towards the United States, and that his company is “bracing” for impact.
So-called “quantitative easing,” or QT, which is scheduled to begin this month, will ramp up to $95 billion a month in reduced bond holdings. There is also the ongoing war in Ukraine, which continues to drive up commodity prices.
Oil, Dimon warns, could hit $150 or even $175 a barrel. And food, as many of us well know, is becoming increasingly more expensive with each passing day.
“You’d better brace yourself,” Dimon warned his audience. “JPMorgan is bracing ourselves and we’re going to be very conservative with our balance sheet.”
“You know, I said there are storm clouds but I’m going to change it … it’s a hurricane,” he added, noting that while conditions might seem “fine” to some, there is no knowing for sure whether the coming hurricane is “a minor one or Superstorm Sandy.”
Central banks can no longer contain the runaway train
The end of the Federal Reserve’s cheap money era, as CNBC calls it, is rapidly coming to an end. This, among other factors, is said to be driving down stock prices in the tech sector.
Inflation is also hitting multi-decade highs, and this is on top of supply chain failures that really picked up during the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) plandemic.
It is believed by many that the economy is now entering a recession – or perhaps a depression – of epic proportions. The writing is clearly on the wall flashing collapse in huge letters, in other words, and Dimon is speaking up about it.
“Right now, it’s kind of sunny, things are doing fine, everyone thinks the Fed can handle this,” Dimon explained. “That hurricane is right out there, down the road, coming our way.”
“We’ve never had QT like this, so you’re looking at something you could be writing history books on for 50 years,” he added, noting that several aspects of the Fed’s quantitative easing programs have clearly “backfired,” one of them being negative interest rates, which he called a “huge mistake.”
At the same time, Dimon says that central banks “don’t have a choice because there’s too much liquidity in the system.”
“They have to remove some of the liquidity to stop the speculation, reduce home prices and stuff like that.” (Related: Remember early last year when the Federal Reserve’s entire payment system crashed due to an “operational error?”)
The war in Ukraine is only exacerbating a problem that has been stewing for years, but it could be the straw that finally breaks the camel’s back – and more than likely this is all by design as part of the controlled demolition of the old world order, which is necessary in order to usher in a new world order.
“Wars go bad,” Dimon said. “[They] go south in unintended consequences. We’re not taking the proper actions to protect Europe from what’s going to happen to oil in the short run.”
Last week during an investor conference, Dimon said the “storm clouds” could be dissipating. A week later, his whole tune changed to indicate that he was wrong: the storm clouds appear to be bigger, darker, and more ominous than most people are prepared to encounter once they finally arrive.
One thing JPMorgan is doing to try to batten down the hatches is to move its clients from a lower-quality deposits called “non-operating deposits” to money markets, as one example. Will it be enough, is the question?

ANOTHER fire devastates Minnesota chicken farm, killing tens of thousands of chickens that provide eggs for the food supply

(Natural News) Almost unbelievable, yet another food facility in the United States was burned to the ground over Memorial Day weekend.
At least one large barn at Forsman Farms in Minnesota housing egg-laying chickens was turned into a pile of ash, reports indicate. The cause of the fires remains unknown. (Related: There have been dozens of similar fires in recent months all targeting food facilities.)
“It was unbelievable how quick it grew; it was insane,” said Andy Trebesch, a neighbor who observed flames at the facility around 10 p.m. on Saturday night. “It was the whole sky; it was quite large.”
The Trebesch family immediately called 911, which sent firefighters from multiple agencies across Wright County to the site. Many of these firefighters are volunteers.
One barn housing tens of thousands of chickens was completely leveled in what a farm spokesperson called a “tragic accident.”
Forsman Farms, by the way, has been around since 1918. It is a massive fourth-generation business that sells more than three million eggs per day to some of America’s largest retailers.
“Overnight, a fire destroyed one of our barns at our Howard Lake farm,” the spokesperson added. “No one was injured and we are grateful that first responders were quickly on the scene to put out the fire.”
“Unfortunately, chickens were lost because of the fire. We are evaluating the extent of the damage – which appears to be confined to a single structure – as well as investigating the cause of the fire.”
Was the Forsman Farms fire arson or an accident?
Eddie Olson, a resident of nearby Cokato, says he heard about the fire on his scanner, which he typically uses to track severe weather events.
“Fires are scary in general, but when you see something of that scale you know, out of control,” Olson told a local police affiliate. “It was just hard to, you know, to think about the chickens, the company, you know, people that work there.”
“It’s kind of a hard hit because we’re already struggling, you know, with the eggs and the cost of stuff and that takes kind of a bite out of the market.”
The extent of the damage at Forsman Farms is still under investigation, as is the cause of the fire. Its timing and synchronicity with other recent fires of a similar nature are certainly suspicious, to say the least.
The egg supply, in particular, has already been under attack by the new avian flu narrative, which suggests that chickens and other fowl are contaminated with another disease that requires their flesh and eggs to be destroyed.
As we reported back in early April when the bird flu hysteria was starting to gain traction, the government is using the same fraudulent PCR tests that it used for the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) to test birds for avian flu – which means the whole thing is probably another fraud.
The combination of bird flu propaganda and this new fire in Minnesota attacking egg-laying hens is all too convenient in light of the “Great Reset” agenda that appears to be well underway.
“At least we know why these animal viruses popped up recently now,” wrote someone at Natural News about the bird flu situation.
“The silly thing is they suggest that killing the animals is the best way to deal with the situation. If the virus was deadly, wouldn’t the animals already be dying from it?”
“Control the food, control the people,” wrote another, citing a popular trope about how dictatorships often form.

Update On Food Plants Blowing Up:
More Explosions, More Stress on Domestic Food Supply
BY JEFF REYNOLDS
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
Over the past several weeks, PJ Media has covered the growing number of food plants across America that have caught fire, exploded, or had planes crash into them. More food processing plants, and more industrial fires of note, have occurred since those reports.
As we reported on May 2:
To be crystal clear: no pattern has yet emerged. The incidents still appear random. Nobody has produced a connection between all these incidents.
There are just a LOT of them, and they’re continuing.
The FBI has not made any mention of the fires, plane crashes, and explosions, but it has issued an alert about cyberattacks possibly timed to disrupt the grain harvest season.
Well, in the subsequent month, several more incidents have occurred.
Last week, a large chicken processing facility burned in Minnesota, killing tens of thousands of chickens.
That came on the heels of another large chicken processing facility catching fire. On May 23, the Cargill plant in London, Ontario, suffered “significant damage” from a large fire over a holiday weekend.
Structure fire at 10 Cuddy Blvd, crews have knocked it down and are in the process of overhaul. Upon arrival heavy fire and smoke conditions that crews were able to knock down and gain access to extinguish the fire. #LdnOnt@LdnOntFire pic.twitter.com/EAjKtZ3o8x
— London Fire Department (@LdnOntFire) May 23, 2022
The plant employs about 700 people and processes a large number of chicken products for McDonald’s.
Somewhat related, over the Memorial Day weekend, a chemical plant in Omaha suffered several explosions and significant fire damage.
Jim Geraghty at National Review made the point that the number of such disasters hasn’t actually increased:
What we’re likely experiencing is the “Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon,” a.k.a. “frequency illusion” — when you hear a term and then feel like you’re suddenly seeing it everywhere. In reality, whatever you’re observing is occurring at the same frequency, it’s just that you didn’t notice it or ignored it before.
Because of the empty shelves earlier this year, people are paying much closer attention to supply chains these days. During the pandemic, many of us experienced sudden disruptions to our usually steady supplies of many varieties of food, as some meatpacking plants briefly shut down because of Covid outbreaks, and potato growers found it harder to get their spuds to consumers. (There was also that hacker attack on a major beef supplier in early 2021.) Then in January, tens of millions of Americans caught the Omicron variant at the same time, leading to disruptions to shipments of all kinds of products, and thus empty shelves and product shortages across the country. And those supply-chain problems still haven’t been worked out.
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), which PJ Media quoted in the May 2 article, has since examined the reports of food plant incidents to determine if a trend has emerged. NFPA reports:
The truth, however, is that nothing is unusual about any of the fires that have occurred in food processing plants over the first few months of the year. Although no data is kept on fires that occur strictly at food processing facilities, the National Fire Incident Reporting System tracks fires within broader categories like manufacturing, refrigerated storage, and agricultural facilities. In 2019, the number of fires at all manufacturing or processing plants in the country topped 5,300—nearly 15 a day. Additionally, more than 2,000 fires occurred in agricultural, grain, and livestock, and refrigerated storage facilities, which could all include food processing operations.
Messerschmidt said food processing plants, like most industrial facilities, are prone to fires. “Food is fuel,” she said. “So as soon as you’re operating with food, you have something that is combustible.” On top of that, Messerschmidt added, you may have heat from cooking, high-pressure systems, combustible dust, and other risk factors for fires and explosions present at these facilities.
While Messerschmidt hopes the focus on these fires will shift away from the conspiracy theories surrounding them, she said there is still value to examining what went wrong in particular incidents.
“We need to pay more attention to the fire protection measures that are in these facilities, make sure they’re maintained, and make sure they continue to function so that when you are doing work in these kinds of plants you can make sure you control the risk that’s inherent,” she said.
NFPA probably could have avoided setting off more alarm bells with the title of its article — “Nothing To See Here” — and by not relying on the phrase “experts say” to make its point. But the point stands: there are lots of fires in America, and as PJ Media reported earlier, no trend has emerged.
Any number of factors could be at play, including the proclivity of fire to break out at these plants, supply chain stresses, deferred maintenance, and the possibility of insurance fraud and arson, which is hardly unheard of. We have also seen some high-profile cyberattacks, and the FBI has warned that more could be on the way.
So, while no trend has emerged, it’s still something to keep an eye on, and it continues to cause more stress on an already overburdened domestic food supply system.
Brighteon: Who’s REALLY Responsible For Inflation & Food Crisis? (Hint: It’s Us)
The conventional wisdom in the western press is that inflation and the food crisis are caused by Russia, specifically Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian ports. But the truth is quite different and involves choices made by NATO and Ukraine, even if the corporate media in the United States will never tell you that.
Jimmy and his panel of The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle and American comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the REAL reasons for the food crisis and rising prices – or at least one of the big ones.
Biden Admin to Cut Food Funding to Schools, Other Entities “Discriminating” Against LGBTQ+
BY VERONIKA KYRYLENKO
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
The Biden administration threatens to cut off federal funding to those schools and entities such as food banks that “discriminate” against gender-confused individuals (“transgenders”) and other representatives of the LGBTQ community.
As reported by the Daily Caller, the new rules were announced earlier this month in a May 5 statement by the USDA saying that the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) will interpret Title IX, the 1972 law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of biological sex, as well as the Obama-era Food and Nutrition Act of 2008, to include so-called gender identity and sexual orientation as protected characteristics.
The USDA stated,
As a result, state and local agencies, program operators and sponsors that receive funds from FNS must investigate allegations of discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation. Those organizations must also update their non-discrimination policies and signage to include prohibitions against discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation.
The press release did not specify when the relevant regulations would be issued.
According to the USDA, FNS funding supports food security through the administration of 15 federal nutrition assistance programs for low-income Americans, including the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, aka food stamps), and school meals.
In an announcement, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack argued that the move was taken as a step in recognizing “the vulnerability of the LGBTQI+ communities,” which needed to be provided “with an avenue to grieve any discrimination they face.”
As reported by The Federalist, in practice, the USDA rule means that “K-12 schools must allow boys into girls’ private areas to obtain federal funds for lunches, breakfasts, and snacks.”
John Elcesser, executive director of the Indiana Non-Public Education Association, told the outlet that the administration is “playing politics with feeding poor kids.”
“Because if a school feels like they cannot participate because it’s in conflict with their mission or values, if a religious exemption is not granted, you’re taking away a program that’s feeding low-income kids,” he added.
According to the latest USDA update, in 2017-2018, the agency sent 1.6 billion pounds of food to schools, which cost the taxpayers $1.6 billion.
The National School Lunch Program (NSLP), which operates in nearly 100,000 public and non-profit private schools, fed 29.6 million children each school day in 2019, at a total cost of $14.2 billion.
In a statement issued to The Federalist, Indiana attorney general Todd Rokita blasted the administration’s “power grab” and reminded his fellow attorneys general that it is within their authority to push back against it and that it is their duty to do so:
The Biden administration is grossly extending the Bostock holding where it does not belong. Like many of the Biden administration’s power grabs, this imposition transgresses areas of proper state and local authority. As the principal guardians of federalism, state attorneys general have the ability to combat such overreach where it injures state functions.
The policy that allows gender-confused boys to use shared spaces with girls puts the latter in real danger.
In October 2021, the court found a “gender-fluid” male student guilty of sexually assaulting a female student in the bathroom in Loudoun County, Virginia. The story made national headlines after the father of the victim was arrested by the police after a confrontation at a school-board meeting. As it became apparent, the Loudoun County School Board was fully aware of the incident yet tried to cover it up.
The Federalist reported that the parents it spoke to said that “their daughters no longer use the bathrooms or locker rooms at their public schools because they don’t feel safe there.”
Indeed, both parents and teachers confirmed that in those schools that allowed for the gender-mixed use of bathrooms, a great number of girls were afraid to use them because they felt they were not safe.
That, in turn, had terrible ramifications for the girls’ psychological well-being and physical health.
As reported by the Daily Mail in 2019 on the matter,
Gender-neutral toilets in schools have left girls feeling unsafe and even put their health at risk, parents and teachers have warned.
Girls who are menstruating are so anxious about sharing facilities with boys that some are staying at home for fear of being made to feel “period shame”.
With a growing number of both primary and secondary schools installing unisex toilets, some girls are risking infections by refusing to urinate all day.
Others are so fearful they have stopped drinking liquids at school.
It seems that by threatening public schools and other venues serving poor Americans, the Biden administration is utilizing authoritarians’ favorite tactics. First, it deliberately creates a vast class of dependents that are promised to be taken care of. Then, the government imposes senseless and harmful policies in return for the “service” that it provides.
It is within people’s power to reject this type of “care.”
The Unbelievable Reason for the FDA’s Delayed Response to the Formula Crisis
You're Not Going to Believe the Reason for the FDA's Delayed Response to the Formula Crisis
BY RICK MORAN
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
Last October, a conscientious whistleblower at Abbott Nutrition wrote a letter directly to the interim chief of the FDA, acting Commissioner Janet Woodcock, and others. He claimed there were serious problems at the company’s Sturgis, Mich. plant.
But the current head of the agency, FDA Commissioner Robert Califf, will testify before a congressional committee today that the top levels of the agency weren’t aware of the whistleblower’s report because of “mailroom issues.”
Dozens of infants are currently being hospitalized because the specialty formula they depend on to survive is out of stock.
And the FDA had “mailroom issues.”
Up until now, however, FDA officials declined to comment on why it took months between the first report of a bacterial infection linked to the plant last September, their inspection this winter, which turned up a range of food safety problems, and the recall. But the new details aren’t likely to tamp down the criticism of the agency, rather, they are already fueling further outrage from lawmakers.
“The FDA, at every step of this process, dropped the ball,” Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.), chair of the House Appropriations Committee, told POLITICO in an interview about the new details revealed in the testimony. “It put infants at risk.”
It actually gets worse. Despite getting the first reports of probable contamination in January, the Sturgis plant wasn’t shut down until mid-February. Even before then, there were internal discussions at the FDA about potential supply disruptions. This was critical because the Abbott plant supplies half the infant formula in the United States for the WIC program — the government food program for infants being raised mostly by single mothers.
Related: Wait, What? HALF of Infants in the U.S. Are on WIC?!
The FDA timeline laid out in the prepared testimony acknowledges the FDA didn’t hold interagency discussions about potential supply chain disruptions until Feb. 14, three days before the Abbott Nutrition plant at the center of the current shortages shut down and issued a formula recall. And the agency didn’t notify the Agriculture Department, which oversees a critical federal nutrition program that purchases about half of the nation’s infant formula, about potential disruptions until a week before the Abbott plant shut down. The program, known as WIC, serves 1.2 million infants from low-income families. Abbott supplies nearly half of all infant formula provided through WIC state contracts.
Why did it take the FDA until the end of January to begin its inspection of Abbott’s Sturgis plant, despite receiving warnings last fall? The FDA blames the staff at Sturgis for delaying their inspection because of COVID-19 staffing issues.
And despite parents screaming for more formula for the first two weeks in May (when the issue finally became news), it wasn’t until May 16 that the government reached an agreement with Abbott to reopen its Sturgis plant.
The White House is playing dumb and trying to deflect media attention toward the FDA.
The White House has also ducked questions about its own timeline in responding to the recall and ensuing shortages. Asked by POLITICO about when the FDA told the White House of the issues at the Sturgis plant and any concerns about potential shortages, a senior administration official said they would not comment on “internal communications.” “The recall became public on February 17 and we certainly have been very public about our activity in this space since then,” the official added.
What should have been a small, temporary supply disruption has become a national crisis because of the incompetence of the Biden administration and the general stupidity of big government. The media has already advanced the narrative that this isn’t Biden’s fault, that it was shortages caused by the pandemic, and that the company is at fault for running an unsanitary plant.
But the very regulations and procedures set up by the government to deal with a crisis like this failed in a spectacular fashion. And that’s on Biden.
Red Alert: UN and WEF Trigger Worldwide Collapse Of Food Supplies
An empire that can’t feed its babies is an empire in COLLAPSE~America fails to do what off-grid jungle tribe villagers can do quite readily-FEED their babies
BY MIKE ADAMS

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
(Natural News) The American empire is in a state of accelerating collapse, and there’s no turning it around. This once-great empire now cannot achieve the most basic of tasks that even isolated jungle tribes can still manage to do: feed their own babies.
Somehow, with all the high-tech dazzle, iPhones, high-frequency Wall Street trading, electric vehicles, space rockets, and all the rest, America still can’t figure out how to feed babies … something that ancient homo sapiens have been doing for hundreds of thousands of years.
Even before the invention of the wheel, humanity’s ancestors knew how to feed their babies.
They also survived without vaccines. How? The immune system, of course.
Of course, even though America can no longer feed its babies, the American empire is fully able to deliver deadly “vaccine” injections that cause infertility and death. There never seems to be a shortage of anything that might kill you. But when it comes to feeding babies, the USA falls flat.
I sent this message yesterday on Telegram:
While US bureaucrats claim to want to help the world experience less WAR and more FOOD security, they pass $40 billion to buy weapons of WAR while blocking Russia from selling wheat for FOOD. So wait… if you want less war and more food, why are you spending money on war and blocking the trade of food?
And I followed it up with this:
Isn’t it amazing how now, suddenly, ALL #food scarcity in the world is attributed to Russia blocking a single port (Odessa) in southern Ukraine?
It’s as if we are now supposed to believe that literally ALL FOOD ON THE PLANET had, until recently, been shipped through one single port in #Ukraine, then distributed
globally. That’s a port that virtually no one in the USA had heard of until last month.
The absurdity of the food scarcity blame game against #Russia is beyond insane.
Remember, too, that Putin is a TIME TRAVELER because he traveled back to late 2021 and caused food inflation even BEFORE his invasion of Ukraine. That’s amazing!
Under Biden, America’s twisted priorities focus on war and death, while ignoring babies and LIFE
So under the illegitimate Biden regime, we end up with a nation that focuses on death, war, the weapons industry, stock market inflation, money printing, media propaganda, vaccine coercion, and more, while ignoring anything that might protect babies or even provide them food. Under the control of heartless Democrats, we now have a corrupt government wholly committed to abortion, bombs and even carrying out acts of domestic terrorism (false flags), but there’s zero willingness to protect the border, protect the dollar, protect children or protect individual liberty.
While America is sending $40 billion to Ukraine — mostly to purchase weapons and fund propaganda campaigns for brainwashing the public — there’s no embracing of free-market dynamics in the USA which would provide an abundance of baby food options without involving government resources in the least.
The free market can solve this problem. But the free market isn’t allowed to operate. Instead, we get FDA-protected infant formula corporate cartels and market monopolies that are highly vulnerable to failure. This is a microcosm of what we’re about to see across the economy on a much larger scale as western civilization rapidly unravels.
It seems to be no coincidence that Biden and the Democrats are also celebrating the mass murder of babies under the label of “abortion.” These Satan-worshiping creatures have no compassion for human life, and they despise babies being born alive and demanding resources such as food.
When Biden and the Dems claim to want to provide food for babies, they’re merely
pretending to have human compassion. They would actually rather these babies never be born. The Great Replacement strategy is, after all, quite real. Americans are supposed to die (or never be born) and then get replaced with migrants across the wide-open border. And for those babies who actually survive birth, they face starvation or having their genitals cut off under the fraud of transgenderism that’s also pushed by the child groomers and abusers of the progressive Left.
They are demons who hate children. They rigged the election and they’re using their malicious intent to try to destroy the nation just as they destroy the lives of innocent children.
Do not let them succeed.

Food Crisis Being Engineered by the Deep State
Catastrophic food shortages and even famine are being engineered by the Deep State in a bid to centralize control over the food supply and ultimately the population of the planet warns The New American magazine's Alex Newman in this episode of Behind The Deep State. Key globalist Deep State operatives such as Henry "New World Order" Kissinger have flirted with the idea of food shortages as a population-control weapon for generations. The goals are clear. And now, thanks to deliberate policy decisions taken by Deep State-controlled governments and organizations, a true food crisis of global proportions is emerging.

(Natural News) Monkeypox, a very mild contagious disease that deserves no panic whatsoever, is reportedly spreading across the world among attendees of a gay pride gathering of 80,000 people in Gran Canaria.
As The Sun (UK) reports, “The Canaria Pride festival, held in the town of Maspalomas between May 5 and 15, has become a hotspot for the monkeypox outbreak, reports El País.”
It turns out that engaging in gay sex activities with thousands of strangers spreads disease. (Who knew?) Even the WHO now says monkeypox is spreading mainly through sexual contact among gay men.
Note that there isn’t a single corporate media outlet in the world that will admit such a fact. They cover up the filthy sexual habits and pretend that anal intercourse among multiple sex partners is perfectly normal, perhaps even preferred.
“Many known patients are gay men who were tested after going to STI clinics, the WHO said. Health chiefs warned gay and bisexual men to be on the lookout for new unexplained rashes,” adds The Sun. “Cases have now been detected in Israel, Norway, Australia, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Germany, France, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United States, and Canada.”
But monkeypox presents virtually zero risk to the world. The media hysteria surrounding the topic is just the latest effort to try to spread fear and panic in order to push — you guessed it — the inevitable monkeypox vaccine that will be forced onto everyone if they can conjure up enough panic.
Anyone dumb enough to fall for this latest “outbreak” hysteria is dumber than a monkey, of course. Among primates on planet Earth, human beings are the only species dumb enough to poison their food supply with pesticides, mass murder their own offspring with widespread abortions, and inject themselves with genetically altering experimental “vaccines” that cause infertility and death. Even rats aren’t stupid enough to engage in those practices… it takes an obedient human progressive to be that stupid.
Only 10 weeks of wheat supply left in the world
As Insider.com reports, a food expert named Sara Menker, testifying before the United Nations, warned that there are only 10 weeks of wheat supply remaining in the world. Importantly, she also recognizes that it’s not merely “Putin’s fault.” From that story:
Sara Menker, the CEO of agriculture analytics firm Gro Intelligence, told the UN Security Council that the Russia-Ukraine war was not the cause of a food security crisis but “simply added fuel to a fire that was long burning.”
“It is important to note that the lowest grain inventory levels the world has ever seen are now occurring while access to fertilizers is highly constrained,” she said. “And drought in wheat-growing regions around the world is the most extreme it’s been in over 20 years. Similar inventory concerns also apply to corn and other grains.”
So what happens after the “wheat wars” hit a critical point of collapse? Food riots, of course. Upheaval, civil unrest, and revolution around the world. The lack of affordable food will push every nation across the world toward the boiling point. Some of those nations will see violent revolts. Others will see their governments fall (as is happening right now in Sri Lanka).
Understand that the oblivious masses still have no clue the food supply is collapsing. They think that grocery stores in November and December will be fully stocked. Oblivious Europeans think heating energy will be widely available, too. (They are wrong.) The expectations of supply currently held by the oblivious masses are catastrophically inaccurate and subject to radical, painful corrections as reality kicks in.
The situation isn’t going to be pretty.

The threat is from the criminal incompetence of the Biden administration, which ignored the baby formula crisis for months until the media began to report on it.
More than 130 pallets filled with formula departed for Indianapolis on a C-17 aircraft a little after 5 a.m. Germany time as part of Operation Fly Formula. Each pallet of Nestle Health Science Alfamino Infant and Alfamino Junior formula held over 430 of the 14.1-ounce containers of formula, labels on the packaging showed.
Another 114 pallets of Gerber Good Start Extensive HA formula are expected to arrive soon, the White House said in a statement Thursday, adding that the equivalent of up to 1.5 million 8-ounce bottles of the three formulas will be delivered.
The crisis began in early February when the FDA discovered a rare kind of bacteria that may have contaminated some formula that ended up sickening four infants. It was never established that the bacteria came from the Abbott Nutrition plant in Sturgis, Mich. But there were some other problems with sanitation at the plant, and it was shuttered.
From February on, the clock was ticking on this crisis. And the Biden administration was asleep at the wheel.
All of the measures taken by the White House to deal with this crisis, including the president invoking the Defense Production Act and this latest public relations stunt to deliver a few dozen pallets of formula to America, won’t adequately address the immediate crisis.
Simply put, the Biden administration was caught flat-footed and wasn’t ready.
There aren’t any fundamental problems with producing baby formula. How do we know? Europeans, Japanese, and Australians are producing it just fine. There’s only a baby-formula shortage in the United States, and it’s because the United States government has adopted policies that allowed what should have been a relatively minor market disruption to turn into a widespread, prolonged shortage.
Instead of allowing parents to buy foreign formula as they would buy any other good, the Biden administration is making a big show of airlifting it here with specially contracted flights. The United States of America should not be dependent on airlifts for an adequate supply of baby formula. As Eric Boehm pointed out for Reason, if foreign brands of baby formula are safe to be airlifted now, they should be available for purchase all the time. It’s clear that the 98-percent-domestic baby-formula market leaves Americans vulnerable to supply shocks that the rest of the world doesn’t face.
No “supply bottlenecks” or “disruptions” caused this crisis. The shortage isn’t the fault of the pandemic wreaking havoc on the supply chains.
The administration didn’t start addressing this crisis until earlier this month despite having a lead time of at least 2.5 months. But the media continues to run interference for the doddering old fool in the White House because they’d rather assist in Biden’s lies than do anything to make the president’s political problems worse.

BIDEN DESPERATELY HAS GERMANY AIRLIFT BABY FORMULA TO THE UNITED STATES
Joe Biden Is the Equivalent of 9/11 for the American Economy
BY ROBERT SPENCER
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
Joe Biden’s tumultuous year and a half of pretending to be president has seen the fall and rise of many things in the United States: gas prices, of course, are rising through the roof, along with prices on pretty much everything else. But for the stock market, it’s a different story altogether. Yahoo Finance reported Friday that U.S. stocks have just endured their longest losing streak since 2001; in other words, Joe Biden’s presidency has had an effect on the U.S. economy that is equivalent to 9/11.
This is not in any way to diminish the untold suffering that resulted from the attacks. Nearly 3,000 people were brutally murdered. There is no equivalent for that and no mitigation of its horror. The analogy between then and now is not in that but in the fact that the economy is suffering to a degree that we have not seen since the immediate aftermath of that terrible day.
According to Yahoo Finance, the major stock indexes were “heading for steep weekly losses as concerns over the resilience of corporate profits in the face of inflation resurged this week.” Luckily, Old Joe’s Commie pals threw us a lifeline: “the S&P 500 traded lower, erasing earlier gains after China’s central bank unexpectedly cut a benchmark interest rate to offer some relief to borrowers in the country still grappling with a widespread COVID-19 outbreak.”
Nonetheless, “the index dropped more than 1.5%, bringing it on an intraday basis lower by more than 20% from its recent record close from Jan. 3. If the losses hold through market close, the S&P 500 will have entered a bear market.” Well, of course, we will. That is as certain as Joe’s next teleprompter gaffe.
Meanwhile, the news from the other indexes was no better: “the Dow shed more than 400 points or 1.4%, and the Nasdaq dropped more than 2% during intraday trading. Treasury yields sank, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note sinking to just above 2.8%, and U.S. crude oil prices edged up to more than $112 per barrel.” And this has been going on for a while: “the losses Friday for the major U.S. stock indexes extended a slide seen earlier this week. As of Thursday’s close, the S&P 500 was on track for a weekly loss of 5.4% — its biggest since January. And the index was also on track to post a seventh straight weekly loss or its longest losing streak since 2001. The Dow and Nasdaq paced toward weekly losses of 5% and 6.2%, respectively.”
The longest losing streak since 2001. What happened in 2001 that made stocks take a nosedive? According to CNN Money, that fateful year “began with a bang. The Nasdaq surged a record 14.17 percent on the second trading day of 2001 after the Federal Reserve surprised investors with a half-percentage point rate cut. That was the first of 11 attempts by central bankers to revive consumer and business spending. Stocks continued to rise in January only to tumble by April. They gained sharply through May before gradually declining through summer.”
But then came 9/11, and suddenly the economic picture was drastically different: “the Dow industrials fell more than 1,300 points in the first week after the markets reopened following the terror attacks, its worst week since the Great Depression. By Sept. 21, the major indexes had fallen to three-year lows. But less than 10 weeks later, the major indexes erased their post-Sept. 11 losses, vindicating investors who called for patriotic buying after the attack.”

Will the American economy similarly rebound now? It could, but there is no chance of such a recovery while Joe Biden and his henchmen have their knees on our collective economic windpipe. It is the Biden administration’s profligate spending, an uncontrolled increase of the money supply, and relentless commitment to green fantasies and socialist internationalism that have gotten us in this fix, and there is no end in sight.
Could the stock market recover? Sure, if Biden suddenly became an America-First president and focused on relieving the plight of the American people rather than the Ukrainian people and if he abandoned his schemes to destroy the economy chasing more green delusions and worked to restore the energy independence the nation had achieved during the Trump administration. But that’s about as likely as Old Joe reading a message off his teleprompter without saying something silly and/or incoherent.
The next milestone will be when the stock downturn becomes the worst since the Great Depression. Watch for that one soon. And then what will we see in America? Breadlines? Hoovervilles? Food riots? In Joe Biden’s America, during the presidency that Nancy Pelosi gushed was “perfect,” all this and more is in the offing. Old Joe Biden’s presidency will long be remembered for its many milestones, and wrecking the strongest economy on the planet will stand as one of the foremost.
After sending America’s baby formula supply to the southern border and creating a shortage, Biden invokes communist takeover of food supply

(Natural News) In response to the baby formula shortage that his regime created, Joe Biden has now invoked the Defense Production Act to nationalize America’s food supply and squarely place it under the control of his handlers.
Suppliers will now be required to direct their ingredients to “key manufacturers,” which will be tasked with boosting domestic production of baby formula (or so we are told).
“The Defense Production Act gives the president broad authority to require companies to prioritize the manufacture and allocation of goods in response to a crisis,” reports CNBC. “The law was passed in 1950 during the Korean War.”
Biden has also ordered both the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Agriculture (USDA) to use aircraft from the Department of Defense (DoD) to airdrop formula from overseas into the United States.
As we reported, grocery store and drug store shelves have been running dry amid an ongoing baby formula shortage that was engineered by the powers that be.
On top of an Abbott Nutrition plant shutdown in Michigan, the Biden regime has been sending all of America’s baby formula stocks to the southern border so they can be handed out to illegal alien “migrants.”
Many Americans have consequently been prevented from purchasing baby formula for their own families, which the Biden regime is now addressing by invoking a communist takeover of the country’s food supply.
Congress calls for FDA to be given more money amid baby formula crisis
The situation with Abbott is moving through the courts with an agreement recently forged between the company and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reopen the plant under certain federal conditions.
According to reports, those conditions include Abbott hiring independent “experts” to ensure the plant meets all of the FDA’s demands, which the media is calling “food safety standards.”
If given approval, Abbott would be able to reopen the plant within two weeks, followed by an additional eight-week delay for products to arrive at stores across the country.
“The U.S. produces 98% of the baby formula American parents buy. Four manufacturers – Abbott, Mead Johnson Nutrition, Nestle USA and Perrigo – dominate the market,” CNBC reports.
“When one plant goes offline, the supply chain is easily disrupted.”
Foreign baby formula is beginning to appear as the FDA is allowing non-American companies to file applications for acceptance into the country. The FDA gets to decide which ones are “safe” and, boom, those are the ones appearing on store shelves.
Some members of Congress are upset about this new little scheme, claiming that the FDA does not have enough inspectors to ensure imported formula is safe. In other words, the FDA “needs” more money.
Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Ct.), chair of the House Appropriations Committee, just introduced new legislation that would furnish the FDA with an additional $28 million in “emergency funding” to beef up inspections of foreign baby formula.
DeLauro insists that this large cash infusion is needed to “monitor the supply chain and root out fraud,” according to CNBC‘s assessment of her intent.
“Most formulas on the market I wouldn’t even touch with a 10-foot pole,” wrote a reader at Natural News about how baby formula should be a nursing mother’s last option when there are no others.
“They are actually toxic to infants and do not promote health.”
“Are we so ignorant in this day and age that we have forgotten about goat’s milk?” asked another, noting that goat’s milk is naturally homogenized and much easier for babies to digest than cow’s milk.

New Food System Will Stop at Nothing to Control You
BY DR. JOSEPH MERCOLA
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational & research purposes:
Story at-a-glance
- The globalist takeover is coming at us from every possible angle. Whether we’re talking about biosecurity, finance, housing, health care, energy, transportation, or food, all the changes we’re now seeing have one goal, and that is to force compliance with a totalitarian slave system
- The global food system, and protein sources, in particular, are currently under coordinated and intentional attacks to manufacture food shortages and famine
- The globalist elite intend to eliminate traditional farming and livestock and replace it with indoor-grown produce and lab-created protein alternatives that they own and control
- While the presence of hundreds of food brands gives the appearance of market competition, the reality is that the food industry is monopolized by fewer than a dozen companies, and all of them, in turn, are largely owned by BlackRock and Vanguard
- Eventually, your ability to buy food will be tied to your digital identity and social credit score
The globalist takeover agenda is nothing if not comprehensive. They’re coming at us from every possible angle, and whether we’re talking about biosecurity, finance, housing,1 health care, energy, transportation, or food, all the changes we’re now seeing have one goal, and that is to force compliance with a totalitarian slave system.
In an April 27, 2022, blog post,2 investigative journalist Corey Lynn takes a deep dive into the new food system being put into place, and how it is geared to control you.
“‘Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can control the world.’ This famous quote by Henry Kissinger is ringing more and more true by the week,” Lynn writes.3
“The globalists already control the majority of the money, are moving ever so swiftly to convert the energy system over into systems they are all invested in, and have been taking drastic measures to control the food industry while running much of it under the radar. If they control the seeds they control the food, and if they control the food they can use the digital ID to control consumer access to the food.
While a rash of fires suddenly destroy food processing, meat, and fertilizer plants, during a time where farmers are hurting and supply chain issues are kicking in, an entire traceable food infrastructure system has already been built in multiple cities and is making its way across the globe ...
The USDA and FDA have already approved lab grown meat, genetically modified cattle, and are funding the globalists to research and develop cellular agriculture as well as indoor growers and genetics companies ...
Union Pacific is mandating railroad shipping reductions by 20% impacting CF Industries Holdings, the world’s largest fertilizer company. Vanguard, BlackRock and State Street happen to be the top shareholders of Union Pacific, and BlackRock and Vanguard are in the top three shareholders of CF Industries Holdings.
By mapping some of the largest vertical farms, it reveals the crops, grocery stores involved, locations and billions pouring in by globalist investors and shareholders. It quickly becomes evident that this is the global plan to control all produce — ingredients that go into all food products.”
The Secret Monopoly
As noted by Lynn, this monopoly has been locked into place over the course of many years. Slowly but surely, the monopoly has grown, under the radar of public consciousness, which in turn has resulted in food getting simultaneously more expensive and less accessible.4
Now, as the final pieces are being put into place, many are waking up to the realization that we’ve been massively fooled and are now at the mercy of a figurative “handful” of unelected people whose megalomania is unsurpassed in human history.
While the presence of hundreds of food brands gives the appearance of market competition, the reality is that the food industry is monopolized by fewer than a dozen companies,5 and all of them, in turn, are largely owned by BlackRock and Vanguard. The growing fake meat market is similarly dominated by a very small number of large food giants6 which, again, are owned by BlackRock and Vanguard.
BlackRock alone holds $10 trillion in assets,7 up from $6 trillion in 2017.8 Combined, the three largest investment firms in the world, BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street, have ownership in nearly 90% of all S&P 500 firms.9
Through their investment holdings they secretly wield monopoly control over ALL industries, so the idea that there is competition anywhere in the marketplace is really just an illusion. You never learned about their ever-expanding monopoly because they also own the centralized media.
It’s hard to tell which of the two is more influential. Vanguard owns a large share of Blackrock. Owners and stockholders of Vanguard include Rothschild Investment Corp,10 Edmond De Rothschild Holding,11 the Italian Orsini family, the American Bush family, the British Royal family, the du Pont family, and the Morgan, Vanderbilt, and Rockefeller families.12,13
Blackrock, meanwhile, has been called the "fourth branch of government," as they are the only private firm that has financial agreements to lend money to the central banking system.14
Food Security Is Undermined by Patentable Food
In 2014, the U.S. Congress established the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research Act (FFAR) through the Farm Bill. After siphoning off $200 million in taxpayer funds to get the foundation started, FFAR became a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization. Bill Gates is one of its founders, and its first board of directors included deputy director Dr. Robert Horsch of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.15
The mission of FFAR is to “connect funders, researchers and farmers, through public-private partnerships to support audacious research addressing the biggest food and agriculture challenges.”16 In reality, it’s been used to undermine food security by increasing reliance on gene-edited and patentable foods.
In April 2019, FFAR launched the Precision Indoor Plants (PIP) Consortium, a public-private partnership of indoor growers, breeders, and genetics companies with the shared goal of advancing speed-breeding and altering plant chemicals responsible for flavor, nutrition, and medicinal value. Five key crops being worked on are lettuce, tomatoes, strawberries, cilantro, and blueberries.
In August 2020, Monsanto/Bayer helped found a startup called Unfold, which develops new vegetable seed varieties specifically geared for vertical farms. According to Lynn, “GMOs already account for 75 to 80% of food Americans consume,”17 and once fresh produce is under patent, that percentage will inch closer to 100%.
The University of California is also working on plant-based mRNA vaccines. The idea there is to disseminate vaccines through the conventional food supply,18 which puts a whole new spin on the old adage to “Let thy food be thy medicine.”
“Bill Gates insists that droughts and climate change is destroying our ability to farm and that the future will consist of populations moving into metropolitan cities where indoor vertical farming is necessary to feed people.
If this is the case, why has he acquired 242,000 acres of farmland over the past decade while simultaneously investing in indoor vertical farming? Who gets to sit at the table with healthy produce served up by Gates while the rest of the population eats gene-edited produce from locked-down facilities, delivered to their local grocery store, and accessed only through a digital ID?” Lynn asks.19
“Meanwhile, the Consultative Group of International Agriculture Research (CGIAR) holds the world’s largest private seed banks consisting of 10% of the worldwide germplasm across the globe, which is controlled by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Rockefeller and Ford Foundations, and World Bank, managing 768,576 accessions of hijacked farmers seeds ...
[W]hat’s going to happen to the farmers when these astronomically enormous indoor vertical farm facilities have taken over every major city, locked in contracts with all major grocery store chains, and are funded by some of the same billionaire globalists who are seeking to control human beings through every industry for their fourth industrial revolution?
It’s a legitimate concern. Add ‘gene-editing,’ ‘smart,’ ‘traceable,’ and ‘net zero’ to the production of these facilities, and the fact that they are still moving full speed ahead on digital IDs and currency, and it becomes even more concerning ...
Whereas this provides a lot of explanation on the absolute intentional demolition to all of our farmers on the seed, vegetable, and produce front, people should also be aware of what’s been taking place with cattle ranchers and the globalists’ plan to take over the meat industry as well.”
Controlled Demolition of the Protein Supply Is Underway
As I explained in yesterday’s weaponized bird flu article, alleged outbreaks of bird flu and COVID-19 in food animals, along with drought and fertilizer shortages, have led to the mass culling of flocks20 and cattle herds21 around the world. So much so, that we’re now told to expect egg,22 poultry, and meat shortages.23
Add to that a global fertilizer shortage that is limiting the amount of animal feed that can be produced this year, and the curious decision to limit U.S. fertilizer shipments on trains, which restricts distribution and raises the cost of what little remains. Experts predict it may take up to three years to replenish global grain stocks,24 and in the meantime, farmers won’t have a readily available supply to feed their livestock.
Canada-based Nutrien Ltd., the world’s largest fertilizer company, recently warned the shortage is likely to extend into 2023. The price of fertilizer has also “skyrocketed to absurd heights that have never been seen before,” The Economic Collapse Blog reports.25
The U.S. and U.K. are also paying farmers to not farm all their available land, California is paying farmers to grow less, ostensibly to save water, and the U.K. is encouraging farmers to retire by offering them a lump sum of £100,000 — all while publicly predicting looming food shortages.26 On top of that, the two largest water reservoirs in California have also fallen to “critically low levels” and wildfires are devastating agricultural land across the western half of the U.S.27
Food production is being blatantly attacked and irrationally restricted on so many fronts, it’s clearly an intentional demolition of primary protein sources28 — meat, egg, and dairy.
“February 1, 2016 the Good Food Institute was launched ... with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Open Philanthropy Project, and Y Combinator, with the goal to ‘reimagine meat production,’” Lynn writes.29
“In October 2021, the Good Food Institute celebrated the USDA’s $10 million grant for the creation of the first-ever National Institute for Cellular Agriculture at Tufts University so they can back researchers in manufactured meat.
To be certain all of these goals are locked into place and the UN 2030 agenda is achieved, disrupting the fertilizer industry, food supply chain, and a rash of coincidental fires to food processing plants sure would help to seal the deal, wouldn’t it?”
The Emperor Has No Clothes
In a blatantly self-serving gesture, Gates has publicly called for the West to quit eating beef and transition to lab-grown meats, ostensibly to address climate change. He’s also railed against legislative attempts to make sure fake meats are properly labeled since labeling would slow down public acceptance.30
Not surprisingly, Gates is financially invested in several faux meat companies.31,32,33 As luck or godlike foresight would have it, he’s also invested in genetically engineered fertilizer alternatives.34 Lynn writes:35
“Bill Gates explained his love for fertilizer in 2018 while in Tanzania.36 Coincidentally, Gates-led and Rockefeller-funded Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) has been an epic fail, with a first ever evaluation report37 that came out on February 28, 2022 after a 15-year effort with bold claims to rescue Africa’s small farmers.
Their false promise to ‘double yields and incomes for 30 million farming households by 2020’ was removed from their website in June 2020 after an assessment by Tufts University revealed little evidence of progress, and in fact showed a 31% increase in hunger.
Evaluators stated there were many deficiencies and AGRA’s reporting and monitoring data was weak. Even the German government is considering pulling funding from AGRA over their pesticide use, which is ironic because Gates claims we need to remove pesticides in the U.S. and move to indoor vertical farming ...
One of AGRA’s biggest achievements was their participation in 72 agricultural policy reforms in 11 African countries, pertaining to seed, fertilizer and market access. Laws were created to protect intellectual property rights for ‘certified’ seeds, as penalties were created for open-source seed sharing.
Imagine being a farmer, homesteader or gardener and having to share and trade seeds on the black market so you don’t get penalized. Anyone who believes they won’t try this in the U.S. is kidding themselves, especially since the globalists hold the largest private seeds banks, and invest in the largest commercial seed companies ...
On March 17, 2022, a notice was published38 to the U.S. Federal Register seeking comments by May 16, 2022 on Competition and Intellectual Property System: Seeds and Other Agricultural Inputs. Remember to read through the proper lens when reviewing this notice that derived from an executive order signed by Biden in July, 2021 on promoting competition in the American economy.
Their ultimate goal — every human being, every piece of food, resource, and product on this planet will be tracked and traced via blockchain. This isn’t a theory — it is their goal. In July, 2021, the FDA released their ‘New Era of Smarter Food Safety’ which consists of using tech-enabled traceability for a digital, traceable food system, from farm to plate using blockchain.
A digital identity to grant access to establishments, control financial spending, and trace everyone’s moves has been rolling out on multiple fronts, including the vaccine ID passport. Eventually they will try to move toward a chip, as it will be easier with biometrics being installed everywhere ...
There is no way to sugarcoat this system they are implementing. Whereas vertical farming is brilliant in many ways, and could be beneficial on a smaller scale in communities, the fact that this is the global agenda to remove farms and control all produce by the globalists themselves, makes is incredibly concerning ...
We must work together to find a way forward and continue to say no to the digital ID they are creating to control our access and spending, while building self sufficiency and security together.”
For solutions to this rapidly approaching dystopian future, review my previous article, “Why Food Prices Are Expected to Skyrocket,” and Lynn’s article “Finding Sources of Fresh Food.”39
Part of the answer is to grow your own food, to the best of your ability. Another part is to support local growers by buying their products, or else they’ll get pushed out. Starting local co-ops and community gardens can also go a long way toward creating food security in the long term.
At the same time, we also have to reject globalist solutions like fake meat, gene-edited beef, GMO foods, and all the rest of it. It’s time to recognize that none of their solutions are for our benefit. They’re for our detriment. The World Economic Forum has declared that by 2030, you will own nothing. They mean it. They will take everything from us, including the right to grow our own food, if we let them.
