Is the rain that falls from the sky safe?  When I was growing up, I would have laughed at you if you would have told me that I could get cancer by drinking the rain that comes from the sky.  And I am sure that it will sound like an absolutely ridiculous idea to a lot of people that will read this article.  Unfortunately, it is true.  Everywhere on the entire planet, rainwater is now packed with extremely dangerous chemicals that cause cancer.  And as you will see below, there is nowhere in the world that you can go to escape this.  This is yet another example that shows that we are literally committing societal suicide and that the clock is ticking for humanity.

Why is this happening?  Each week, it seems like there is another new outbreak somewhere in the world that the experts are deeply concerned about.  Prior to 2020, it was never like this.  In the old days, the vast majority of us never even thought about when the “next pandemic” might happen because such a scenario seemed so improbable.  But here in 2022, a bird flu pandemic has killed tens of millions of our chickens and turkeys, a monkeypox outbreak has already spread to more than 90 countries all over the globe, confirmed cases of the Marburg virus have been reported in Africa, and very serious diseases that were once almost entirely eradicated are popping up even in the western world.  What are we supposed to make of all of this?

The corruption is right out in the open now.  The whole world was stunned by the vicious raid on Mar-a-Lago, and it is quite obvious why it was ordered.  Even though close to half of the country wants Donald Trump to run for president again, the Washington establishment is going to do whatever it takes to keep that from happening.  If the Washington establishment is successful, will our system of government be able to survive?  I think that is a legitimate question at this point.  In order for any system of government to function, a certain percentage of the population must have faith in it.  Even before the raid on Mar-a-Lago, poll after poll showed that confidence in our system of government was hovering near all-time lows.  If the elite get what they want and Trump is banned from ever running for president from this point forward, it is going to fundamentally shake this nation to the core.

You have probably noticed that things aren’t going very well in the United States right now.  Our economy is a mess, crime rates just keep going higher, we may soon be involved in wars with both Russia and China simultaneously, and our culture is deteriorating at a rate that is absolutely staggering.  Unfortunately, there is no short-term help on the horizon because our current crop of leaders is the worst that we have had in the entire history of our nation.  I truly wish that I was exaggerating, but I’m not.  We have reached a critical juncture in American history, and we desperately need to turn things in a positive direction, but at this point the endless clown show in Washington has become the laughingstock of the world.

By the time that you have finished this article, even more children will have died from acute malnutrition.  Unfortunately, because very little is said about this rapidly growing crisis by the corporate media, the vast majority of us don’t even know that it is happening.  Global hunger has always been a major problem, but things have gone to a completely new level during the past couple of years.  The COVID pandemic, the war in Ukraine, rampant food inflation and extremely bizarre weather patterns have combined to create a “perfect storm”, and global food supplies have been getting tighter and tighter.  If something dramatic does not happen, we are likely to see suffering in the months ahead that would have once been unthinkable.

They aren’t even trying to hide it anymore.  During the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England on July 28th, a giant mechanical bull with glowing red eyes was rolled out into the center of Alexander Stadium.  The bull was approximately 10 meters high, and it took more than five months to build.  It had been given the nickname “Raging Bull”, and it absolutely dwarfed all of the human participants that were involved in the performance.  The “hero” of the opening ceremony, a character known as Stella, calmed the creature down and then all of the human performers gathered around the giant bull and literally began to bow down and worship it.  I have seen a lot of really weird things in recent years, but I have never seen anything quite like this.

I feel really bad for the Taiwanese people.  Thanks to the recklessness of Nancy Pelosi, China has decided to become much more aggressive.  Until Sunday, a series of extremely alarming “live-fire drills” in the waters surrounding Taiwan will essentially cut off much of the normal maritime and air traffic that reaches the island.  And it is being reported that during these “exercises” China actually plans to fire missiles over Taiwan for the very first time.  Needless to say, much of the Taiwanese population will become greatly alarmed when they see missiles flying overhead.  Taiwan is heavily dependent on imported food, and China is demonstrating very clearly that they can completely cut off the island from all resources if they are crossed again.

Chinese forces are gathering directly across from the Kinmen Islands.  Those islands are currently controlled by Taiwan, and China may be preparing a move to grab them.  If China actually does such a thing, all hell could break loose.  Taiwan could potentially start launching missiles at any Chinese units that try to invade the Kinmen Islands, and if that happens the Chinese would inevitably return fire.  In addition, there is no way that the Biden administration would allow such a move by China to go unanswered.  Earlier this year the entire world was shocked when Russian forces moved into Ukraine, and we could be right on the verge of another historic moment that changes everything.
