According to Schwab, the recent U.S. election results are proof that America can no longer govern itself. His solution? Force the United States to bow to the authority of the globalist agenda through a series of covert and calculated attacks set to unfold in the coming year.
In his deranged and chilling sociopathic plenary speech, Schwab didn’t mince words: the World Economic Forum rules the world, and now, it’s time to bring the American people into compliance.
“It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent.”
The 2024 election results reimagined from these WEF “scientists” and “genius Excel users” are part of the currently funding efforts to create world wide disarray terror and brainwashing.
This really breaks their previous day on the program
At DAVOS- 2025 (which is kinda like losers meets the Adult Film Conference)!!
Day-one communique: to “build coalitions and change narratives” was about changing the perception of their dumb ass revenge against the world. They can’t even go ONE DAY without planning another WORLD COUP openly on day two, to take total control.
(Note: Mind you there are 3000 escorts waiting for them back at the hotel.
Why don’t we collect the hotel sheets from their rooms and “figure out with Ai” how to extract stupidity out of the world’s genetic pool?)
Sounds like to me, Mr. Clause Schwarb just declared war against the United States.
I sure hope this son of a NAZI warmonger has an army. We will never bow to Schwab, his agenda, or anyone. This mother f*cker might want to rethink his ignorance!
So let me try to understand this.
The Davos clan is telling America it’s going to attack us with a black swan event. That is a direct threat to our national security, isn’t it? Shouldn’t he be brought in for questioning as to exactly what he means by the Black Swan event?
We MUST get Bill Gates away from our food and also keep him away from chemicals!!!
They have directly threatened the USA. It’s time for Trump to assign some of his best to the task and end these idiots once and for all. Obama signed an agreement with them while in office to disarm the American public. LOL.
They’ve been trying and have succeeded on some issues.
But, they learned that it is easier said than done in this country.
We are literally the last hold-out, and they came very close under Biden.
God IS in charge now. Let’s pray DJT chooses discernment over recommendations when the two collide.
Why doesn’t America and other countries fight and declare these f*cking terrorists, because that is what they are! Fake them, put them in prisons, make another Nuremberg trials.
Only God knows they are worse than others from the past!
Dismantle their dystopian organizations, if not, sooner or later their plan will actually succeed! They want to rule, they should suffer the consequences! Arrest BlackRock Larry Fink and Klaus Schwab who order the hit on The Real President twice as examples, and the rest will go like dominos!
They are too far into the UK and EU. Poland is the only holdout
And seize ALL assets. Including their fake money-making central banks.
Cut off the head and then grind the rest into nothingness. Attention WEF Demons….No weapon formed against God’s people will prosper At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
The phrase “every knee shall bow” is found in Philippians 2:10-11, which states that at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue confesses that Jesus Christ is Lord.
This verse emphasizes the authority and lordship of Jesus Christ.
We have had enough of you and call on the angelic hosts (i.e. Archangel Michael)
I love that verse ‘ Phillippians 2:10-11.
More like you’ll do nothing because you’ve been convinced a god man will do it for you. There is no magic god man, you’ve been tricked in complacency.
Thank you, Jesus, you brought the arrogant law. It’s your will, your way, your plans for America not man’s and certainly no demon, fallen angel, or wicked prince or principality. I can’t wait till the WEF, especially Klaus Schwab rots in Hell being the monster he is and I hope bad karma and jail or Gitmo gets them first. Jesus, we thank you that you will deliver Us from the snare of the fowler.
Someone tells Klaus the story of Adolf Eichmann. Klaus is an officer of the WEF and not the leader of a country. His threats confirm that he leads a terror organization presenting a clear danger to the United States.
The world economic forum is now on life support. The world is waking up to the plans of the elite and how they want to eliminate us. Spread the word people and keep spreading the word it’s growing like wildfire.
Why? Because it’s scary as hell and true.
So can we declare the WEF as a Terrorist organization trying to infiltrate and take iver our constitutional republic by circumventing our elections through blackmail, money, threats, infiltration, and NGO corruptness? This is an admission of WEF.
This quote describes what makes the WEF dangerous right now.
Von Der Leyen describes international socialism. Competition lifts all boats, not better rules.
May all people of good will stand strong against the onslaught of evil and weather this storm, praying “Jesus, I trust in You,” and asking “God, bless America!” Don’t let the light go out! Hang onto the Holy Spirit, no matter what!
May all people of good will stand strong against the onslaught of evil and weather this storm, praying “Jesus, I trust in You,” and asking “God, bless America!” Don’t let the light go out! Hang onto the Holy Spirit, no matter what!
Do not underestimate these people. Read your Bible. Eventually, whether it’s 2030 or 2085, they will win. For a brief while.
Here is an interesting thought. What if America and Russia stood back and realized let’s make an alliance, The enemy of my enemy is my friend. They could get rid of the UN, dismantle NATO, get rid of these evil people to allow all countries in this world to have their own sovereignty!
New names and terms but a very scary almost perfect shadow of an evil german dictator called Hitler trying to take over the world in a very similar way. The playbook hasn’t changed. We are just in the middle chapters and constant mini climax scenes are looking forward.
Look those up and tell me again why we should bow down to those self proclaimed overlords. My knee only bends for one God and one son of God which is the king of kings Jesus Christ. So scary to watch and because they have infiltrated our higher and lower educational systems, an entire generation is almost clueless as to what’s coming and the patterns unfolding. It;s pure evil.
With Klaus Schwab facing a lawsuit for discrimination, it’s casting a shadow over the WEF’s leadership. Talk about the WEF calling the shots in the U.S. sounds like a stretch, especially when we’ve got our own Constitution keeping things in check.
It’s all about world domination and compliance. You couldn’t make this up.
It’s like a plot from a James Bond movie.
The WEF knows that Trump’s action will enable more countries to join the non compliant countries thus crushing the megalomaniac WEF.
Our country was built on a Constitutional Republic and not a democracy, checks and balances, and our own rules, not someone else’s.
So, what’s the game plan?
We need to beef up our Republic against their democracy. Keep our elections clear as day, make sure everyone can vote, and stick to the law to keep any overreach at bay.
Besides Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins it looks like all the Democrats are against Like the pandemic who spread it here, fires in California are suspect. So many things they can do Trump has to be extremely careful but I am going to trust in God and know Trump is a smart man.
And pray without ceasing!
Apparently the Mail online (UK) has an article on what goes on at Davos and the WEF, sleaze, trans women etc. I remember many years ago, those in charge of the EEC (EU) said that they would ‘challenge’ America. If anyone begins WWIII it will be Europe.
I believe the hand of God is leading and protecting our President from evil! Pray pray pray! President Trump has learned in the last few years what he (we) are truly up against, Satan!!!
There needs to be an open season on all WEF members and elitists so when anyone gets a chance do to them what they plan to do to us.
Just like this groups of Wack jobs Liberal counterparts……
Their plans are suspended by the Power of the Holy spirit. The “new world order” proposed by the first crooked Bush in 1991 is a failure because it is evil and cannot produce good results.
The natural law which the real God created will overcome all evil.
Don’t these people have anything else better to do?
I think they may be going with it, and pretending not to.
Hasn’t it always been their dream to have consolidation into several larger units, BRICKS and then the North American Union, which would make it so much easier for their global, digital financial and social prison to occur? It does seem to all be falling into place.
All we need now is the “reset/great taking cash rugpull”.
One obvious example: a new pandemic with people getting the latest vaccine out of fear. Seems to me he watched Demolition Man too many times but just like that movie the Cocteau plan failed just the same.
These people are evil. They would create a pandemic to maintain their power. They have the means to do it. This is all a Grift. There is nothing scientific about the Climate Crisis.
This is all about power.
PS: Here’s the best recap I know showing how a pandemic may develop in our population and what to do about it:
I would venture to say 99.999% of Americans don’t know the WEF is up to and don’t give two chits. Just a guess.
According to Fuhrer Schwab. Americans are no longer able to effectively govern themselves. That election needs to be done away with. He is butt hurt over Donald’s win.
On September 11, 1990 at 9:09 PM, President George Herbert Walker Bush spoke before a joint session of Congress, regarding the Persian Gulf War. Among other topics, he stated that the war presented an opportunity for a “New World Order” to emerge.

Mining for lithium — an essential element to power the clean energy transition — can have negative impacts on the environment. Photo: TomTooM03
The race toward net-zero emissions depend heavily on lithium — to power electric vehicles, to store wind and solar power. This element of the periodic table is one of the main protagonists of the economic and infrastructural transformation that we are experiencing today.
Our dependence on lithium recalls that of oil and coal that transformed our society in the past. At the time, however, the long-term effects of burning fossil fuels were unknown, whereas today, we know of the highly negative aspects of lithium extraction on the environment.
With this knowledge should come responsibility — towards the environment and future generations. We must not fall into the same traps from which we are trying to free ourselves.
Together with the powerful “curative” and “palliative” qualities of lithium on the effects of climate change, it is necessary to consider the potential “side effects” and communicate them in a transparent manner. These side effects include: use of large quantities of water and related pollution; potential increase in carbon dioxide emissions; production of large quantities of mineral waste; increased respiratory problems; alteration of the hydrological cycle.
Obviously the economic interests at stake are enormous. Australia, Chile and China produce 90% of the world’s lithium. The global lithium market rapidly approaches $8 billion.
A paradox, therefore, can arise between “clean” revolution and “dirty” lithium mines: it is true that electrifying cars and other aspects of our society favors the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. However, after we consider the cost of emissions associated with extracting lithium, the transition may not be as efficient as we believe, especially when miners are not using clean energy.
Let us consider, for example, electric cars. To give an idea of this effect, producing a battery weighing 1,100 pounds emits over 70% more carbon dioxide than producing a conventional car in Germany, according to research by the automotive consultancy Berylls Strategy Advisors.
Furthermore, lithium mining requires a lot of water. To extract one ton of lithium requires about 500,000 liters of water, and can result in the poisoning of reservoirs and related health problems.
What to do, then? To begin with, we should invest in alternative solutions to lithium batteries. At the same time, recycling and increasing the lifetime of these batteries would reduce the need to mine huge quantities of the precious material. This effort should be accompanied by launching lithium mining operations with strict environmental laws and regulations, and investing in advanced mining methods capable of extracting lithium from seawater.
Remediating and reducing the impact of lithium mining is essential to be able to call the steps we are taking towards a new world “progress.” Otherwise, we are just going in circles.
The Reality Behind Electrons: Where Do Batteries Fit In?
When we think about renewable energy, we often picture wind farms sprawling across vast landscapes or solar panels glittering under the sun. It’s a clean image. However, behind these clean systems lies a hidden truth—batteries.
Batteries are the key component in storing renewable energy, but they are far from green. On the surface, they seem like the ultimate solution for energy storage, yet the way they’re produced and disposed of tells a different story.
For instance, the mining of lithium, a critical component in batteries, leaves a massive carbon footprint and significantly disrupts ecosystems. Moreover, the energy consumption in manufacturing batteries negates some benefits of being “green”.
Mining for Elements: Digging Deeper into Environmental Impacts
The process starts with lithium extraction. Lithium is critical for battery production, and its extraction is energy-intensive, involving water-heavy mining practices. Imagine a metal straw in a water glass; that’s akin to the massive water removal necessary to obtain lithium. The regions rich in lithium, such as parts of Chile and Bolivia, face water shortages as a consequence, drastically affecting local communities and agriculture. Equally concerning are the other elements like cobalt and nickel, which carry their own environmental baggage. As demand for these materials rises, so do tensions over resource exploitation, raising ethical questions about renewable energy’s true footprint.
Pollution Prevails: The Toxicity of Manufacturing Batteries
Once the precious elements are gathered, they move to factories for processing. Battery production itself generates hazardous waste, which often ends up in landfills, contaminating soil and water sources. Chemicals such as sulfuric acid used during the process can persist in the environment long after production stops. Moreover, the energy used in these factories often comes from coal or gas, overshadowing the environmental benefits that renewable energies aim to provide. As transparency grows and the public becomes more educated, the irony becomes clear—while these batteries power clean energy, they are born from not-so-clean origins.
Lifespan Limitations: When Batteries Die, Mother Earth Pays
With time, batteries degrade. Their lifespan is not infinite, usually ranging from a few to about ten years, depending on usage. Unfortunately, end-of-life management often includes incineration or landfilling. Picture a car graveyard—but with old batteries. These practices release toxic chemicals into the environment, disrupting ecosystems and posing significant health risks. While recycling exists, it’s often not cost-effective, and only a tiny fraction of batteries actually get recycled. Economic and technical hurdles mean the rest simply contribute to the growing problem of electronic waste.
The Cost Quandary: Financial Spin on a Green Illusion
Beyond environmental concerns, there’s a financial strain. The cost of producing and maintaining energy storage systems is high. Though efforts to reduce costs continue, batteries remain expensive to both produce and recycle. Subsidies often mask these costs, painting a picture of sustainability that isn’t entirely accurate. Consumers and stakeholders sometimes find it frustrating as these costs are passed on, making renewable energy seem less affordable in the long run. This financial burden can seem like paying more for what seems to be a green alternative, making the transition toward renewables less attractive.
Technological Tides: Striving for Sustainable Storage Solutions
Despite the challenges, there’s a ray of hope with innovations. Researchers are looking into alternative battery technologies that could reduce reliance on harmful materials, like solid-state and flow batteries. These technologies promise higher efficiency and sustainability if hurdles like cost and scalability can be overcome. Some envision a future where more sustainable materials, like sodium, replace lithium. However, these advancements are still in their infancy, and mainstream adoption could take years. The race for alternatives signifies the growing acknowledgment of current battery technologies’ limitations, sparking a quest for genuinely green solutions.
Land Use and Landscape: The Visual and Cultural Footprint of Storage Solutions
The infrastructure required to store renewable energy can be quite invasive. Large battery storage facilities occupy vast areas of land that might otherwise be used for agriculture or wildlife habitat. This land use shift affects not only the environment but also cultural landscapes. Local communities often face the double-edged impact of having greener energy solutions but losing lands that hold cultural significance or provide livelihood. Sometimes, even basic aesthetic alteration of landscapes can spark resistance among communities, pointing to a broader tension between development and preservation.
A Time for Change: Assessing the Path Forward
While challenges exist, awareness is the first step toward change. Realizing that batteries aren’t the green energy solution opens up dialogues on improving storage methods. Governments, companies, and researchers are increasingly focused on the development of alternative energy storage solutions that could be less impactful on the environment and society. Investing in these new technologies is vital for a sustainable future, with the hope that someday we might rely on genuinely green energy storage systems. Acknowledging the dirty secret of battery-powered energy storage is crucial as we tread this path toward true environmental sustainability without greenwashing.
Batteries are recycled because they are the highest concentration of battery ore on the planet!
And your alternative is? Burn more hydrocarbons? Really? Newer batteries are greener, but we have to get production up to speed. They also last through more cycles and hold more charge. Lithium sulfur, graphene supercapacitors, redox flow batteries, aluminum graphite batteries, or even hydrogen fuel cells which actually cleans the air as they are used.
Plus electric vehicles are much more fuel efficient than fossil fueled vehicles. EVs convert 77% of the electric power into motion, while traditional gas engines only use 12 to 30% of the gasoline for motion. EVs also recapture forward momentum to turn back into electricity it can re-use, emit no pollutants into the air as you drive through neighborhoods and reduce dependency on OPEC and other oil producers like Russian and Venezuela.
Biden tried to send us down this green energy path and at least 10 years before the technology is ready. But he would not listen to anyone. California now has surplus solar power that can not be utilized and when the sun does not shine we are short of power.
With an increasing number of industrial-scale wind turbines around the world, numerous reports are surfacing to suggest that noise, infrasound and stray voltage (dirty energy) may be harmful to livestock and wildlife.
The increase in whale, dolphin, and other cetacean deaths off the East Coast of the United States since 2016 is not due to the construction of large industrial wind turbines, U.S. government officials say.
We all want cleaner, more renewable energy. But when it comes down to it, the energy of the future is going to be the cheapest energy. So, in this video we compare energy production by the Levelized Cost of Energy, or LCOE – the formula that will determine our energy future.
In the battle of energy sources, solar panels and wind turbines each have their perks and pitfalls! 🌞💨 Let’s explore how they stack up against one another for a greener planet. Which one do you think is the better option? #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #SolarVsWind
Their scientists have done the research, they say, to prove that whatever is killing the whales is completely unrelated to the wind industry.
But now, a new documentary, “Thrown To The Wind,” by director and producer Jonah Markowitz, which I executive produced, proves that the US government officials have been lying.
The film documents surprisingly loud, high-decibel sonar emitted by wind industry vessels when measured with state-of-the-art hydrophones. And it shows that the wind industry’s increased boat traffic is correlated directly with specific whale deaths.
My nonprofit organization, Environmental Progress, which is independent of all energy interests, funded the documentary because, like millions of Americans, we love whales and believe their extinction is an avoidable tragedy
The species in question is the North Atlantic right whale. Its population has dropped to 340 from over 400 over the last few years.
And, there have been more than 60 recorded whale deaths of all species on the East Coast since Dec 1, 2022, a number that increased markedly since 2016 when the wind industry started to ramp up.
The documentary may not stop the industrial wind projects from being built. After all, the wind projects are going forward despite urgent warnings from leading conservation groups and a top scientist at the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The waters off New York and New Jersey have seen a sudden upsurge in whale deaths this year.
But our documentary has hit a nerve. Within the first 48 hours of it being online, over 20,000 people re-posted it, and over 6 million people total, across twotweets, have viewed the posts with the embedded trailer for “Thrown To The Wind.”
And, now, Republican members of Congress tell me they want to hold hearings to investigate.
I have been involved in a lot of great causes in the 35 years that I have been politically active. This one, saving the whales, is easily one of the most noble and important. One of my first political memories as a boy was the Greenpeace “Save the Whales” sticker in my father’s food co-op.
Whales touch something deep within us. They care deeply for their offspring. They form communities. They sing.

Whales are, as the conservationists in “Thrown to the Wind” explain, magnificent spiritual beings, not just great biological ones.
There appear to be at least two distinct mechanisms by which wind industry activities are killing whales.
The first is through boat traffic in areas where there hasn’t historically been traffic. The second is through high-decibel sonar mapping that can disorient whales, separate mothers from their calves, and send them into harm’s way, either into boat traffic or poorer feeding grounds.
Whale deaths caused by boat strikes are not unrelated to wind farm works — as some have sought to claim — but fueled by them.
We cannot ignore the real cause of whale deaths like this humpback washed ashore at Brigantine, NJ, in January, says Shellenberger: windfarm development is a clear and present danger.AP
The waters around New York and New Jersey have seen three humpbacks die in August alone; two of them had blunt force trauma while the third was too decomposed for a necropsy.
Shot in the hand-held style made famous by Paul Greengrass, the creator and director of the Jason Bourne movies, Markowitz’s “Thrown To The Wind” gives the experience of being on the ocean and in the room with the film’s stars, Lisa Linowes, who correlated the whale deaths to wind industry activity with Eric Turner, and Rob Rand.
She’s also an obsessive data nerd who, working with her husband, sold their start-up software company over a decade ago and moved to New England where she does her conservation work full-time and without pay.
The film follows Lisa Linowes, who correlated the whale deaths to wind industry activity.Thrown to the Wind / Public productions
Linowes was able to hear the sounds to which whales are exposed during filming. Shellenberger writes that the effect of the sound is to disorient the whales, and drive mothers and calves apart — and into danger.Thrown to the Wind / Public productions
The commitment by Markowitz to investigative documentary filmmaking led him to go out on the ocean with Rand to measure the sound of industrial wind activity.
It was on that trip that Rand and his team discovered high-decibel sound emissions that appeared to violate NOAA’s protective standards for marine life.
When combined with the work of Linowes and Turner, correlating whale deaths with wind industry vessel traffic, Rand’s acoustic research should have far-reaching implications, including halting all industrial wind activity along the East Coast.

After a dead whale washed ashore on Takanassee Beach in New Jersey two weeks ago, police blocked off the area so tractors could be brought in to remove it.
“We were sitting on the beach yesterday, and I noticed it when people started running up to it,” Soraya Nimaroff, who lives nearby, told the Ashbury Park Press. “I’m very sad. It is very sad.”
Our research shouldn’t have been necessary. Dr. Sean Hayes, a top NOAA scientist, warned last year that industrial wind projects “could have population-level effects on an already endangered and stressed species.”
“Population-level effects” include extinction.
On Lido Beach in January, the grim aftermath of a humpback death was apparent as heavy machinery was brought in to bury the 35-foot adult.AP
This was the warning from NOAA’s head of protective species about the dangers of wind farms. It was ignored, writes Shellenberger.
Dr. Hayes, NOAA’s chief of protected species warned that “oceanographic impacts from installed and operating turbines cannot be mitigated for the 30-year lifespan of the project unless they are decommissioned.” His warnings were ignored.
So, too, were the ones from scientists representing many of the same environmental groups supporting the industrial wind energy projects wrote in a 2021 letter that “the North Atlantic right whale population cannot withstand any additional stressors; any potential interruption of foraging behavior may lead to population-level effects and is of critical concern.”
But the scientists then stood by as their organizations sold out them and the whales.
Under pressure from the White House, the US government has ignored its top scientists and pushed forward to industrialize the oceans and risk the extinction of the North Atlantic right whale.
It’s surprising that the environmentalists who are lobbying for these wind towers don’t seem to care about this collateral issue. Animals that navigate by echolocation such as whales – Search are especially affected as are any of the marine life that live on the ocean floor.
The Jersey Shore has become an all too frequent host of the least welcome form of whale visitor: a washed-up corpse.
This 2021 letter from scientists, many from groups backing the expansion of wind energy, warned how vulnerable right whales are. “Population-level effects” include extinction. Part of the problem is that the wind industry spent years bribing the US government, scientific organizations, and aquariums to lie to the American people.
Wind energy companies and their foundations have donated nearly $4.7 million to at least three dozen major environmental organizations.
And Facebook went so far as to censor my post linking whale deaths to wind energy off the East Coast of the United States.
The censorship came in the form of adding a link to a “FactCheck.org” article from March 31, 2023, which relied entirely on U.S. government sources “Thrown to the Wind” debunks.
Rhode Island hosts the nation’s first offshore wind farm. Shellenberger argues it is reckless not to stop the expansion of the offshore giants.AP
“Thrown To The Wind” exposes the reality that the U.S. government agencies and the scientists who work for them either haven’t done the basic mapping and acoustic research to back up their claims, have done the research badly, or found what we found and are covering it up.
Given the evidence presented in “Thrown To The Wind,” it’s clear that the American people and our representatives cannot trust NOAA and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), the two government agencies that, for years, have repeatedly betrayed the public’s trust in service to powerful industrial interests.
In the documentary, the reality of the danger to whales is clear to all taking part. “When people see the evidence, the American people, their policymakers, and the courts will end this awful destruction of wild nature,” Shellenberger writes.Thrown to the Wind / Public productions
Because politics has corrupted the normal scientific and regulatory process for protecting the North Atlantic right whales, we are urging elected officials at federal and state levels to conduct an investigation, issue subpoenas, and hold public hearings.
Saving the North Atlantic right whale is a goal that is within reach and well worth pursuing. Yes, its numbers have plummeted from over 400 to just 340 at the last estimate.
But the species will likely rebound if the sonar mapping and new boat activity in previously non trafficked areas is ended.
The strong reaction to the documentary over the last two weeks, including from members of Congress, gives me hope that things will soon change.
The depressing sight of a whale being buried, like this one in Lido Beach, has become too frequent already. Shellenberger is urging state and federal lawmakers to act.AP
When people see the evidence, the American people, their policymakers, and the courts will end this awful destruction of wild nature.
The government officials, scientists, and journalists who have been involved in promoting this project should quit their jobs and become whistleblowers before their work kills any more whales.
Electric vehicles, or EVs, have been hailed as a solution to the pressing issue of vehicular emissions. However, the production of their batteries tells a different story.
The manufacturing process, particularly for lithium-ion batteries, is incredibly energy-intensive. This results in significant carbon emissions, often surpassing those from the production of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
The extraction and processing of raw materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel require substantial energy, typically derived from fossil fuels. As a result, the environmental cost of producing an EV battery can be surprisingly high. It is a paradox where a vehicle meant to reduce emissions starts its journey with a hefty carbon footprint. This initial environmental debt is a critical consideration when evaluating the true “greenness” of electric
Electricity Source Matters
The emissions associated with EVs are not solely confined to their production phase. The source of electricity used to charge these vehicles plays a pivotal role in determining their environmental impact. In regions where electricity is predominantly generated from fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas, EVs indirectly produce more emissions. This means that while the vehicle itself might not emit harmful gases, the power plants supplying its energy might. The contrast becomes apparent when comparing areas with renewable energy sources, where EVs can genuinely reduce emissions. Thus, the advantages of EVs are closely tied to the energy mix of the local grid. The greener the grid, the greener the EV. Understanding this connection is essential for comprehensively assessing the environmental benefits of electric vehicles.
Energy Efficiency
Despite the challenges posed by battery production and electricity sourcing, EVs have a significant advantage: energy efficiency. Compared to ICE vehicles, EVs convert a higher percentage of the energy from their fuel source into actual movement. This means that even when charged from fossil-fuel-heavy grids, they often generate fewer emissions over their lifetime.
The efficiency of electric motors, which have fewer moving parts, contributes to this benefit. For instance, while an ICE vehicle might use only 20% of its fuel energy for propulsion, an EV can use up to 80%. This efficiency plays a crucial role in offsetting the emissions produced during the battery manufacturing process. In essence, the longer an EV is in use, the more it can capitalize on its efficiency edge over traditional vehicles.
Mining Impacts
The materials required for EV batteries, such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel, are extracted through mining processes that pose environmental and ethical challenges. Mining can lead to land degradation, water pollution, and loss of biodiversity in affected areas. Moreover, the mining industry is often criticized for poor labor practices, including hazardous working conditions and child labor.
The demand for these materials has surged with the rise of EVs, intensifying the pressure on mining operations worldwide. This situation creates a complex ethical dilemma for consumers and manufacturers alike. While the shift to electric vehicles aims to reduce emissions, it is important to address the impacts of mining to ensure that the entire supply chain is sustainable and responsible. Balancing these conflicting interests is crucial in the pursuit of a truly green transportation future.
Lifecycle Emissions
To fully understand the environmental impact of EVs, it is vital to consider their lifecycle emissions. This encompasses emissions from manufacturing, operation, and disposal. Over their entire lifecycle, EVs typically produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions than ICE vehicles. This advantage becomes more pronounced as electricity grids transition to renewable energy sources.
The initial carbon footprint from battery production can be mitigated by the vehicle’s efficiency and the potential for cleaner energy during its operational phase. However, achieving this requires a collective effort to shift towards sustainable energy sources and improve battery production methods. The lifecycle perspective underscores the importance of long-term planning and investment in renewable energy to maximize the benefits of electric vehicles.
Recycling Challenges
As the number of electric vehicles on the road continues to grow, so does the challenge of battery recycling. While technologies for recycling EV batteries are improving, a significant portion of used batteries still goes unrecycled. This raises questions about waste management and the sustainability of the EV industry.
Efficient recycling processes are essential to recover valuable materials and reduce the need for new mining operations. However, the development and implementation of such processes are still in progress. The ability to recycle batteries effectively will play a crucial role in minimizing the environmental impact of EVs and ensuring their long-term viability as a green transportation solution.
Comparative Air Pollution
One of the most significant advantages of EVs is the elimination of tailpipe emissions. This reduction in local air pollution is particularly beneficial in urban areas with dense populations. Cleaner air contributes to improved public health and a better quality of life.
However, it is essential to note that tire and brake particulate pollution remains an issue for all vehicle types, including EVs. These particulates can contribute to air pollution and pose health risks. While EVs offer a cleaner alternative to ICE vehicles, addressing these non-tailpipe emissions is crucial for achieving comprehensive air quality improvements. A holistic approach to reducing vehicular emissions is necessary to realize the full potential of electric vehicles in urban environments.
Future Potential
The environmental impact of EVs is poised to decrease as renewable energy sources become more prevalent and battery technologies improve. The ongoing advancements in recycling processes also hold promise for reducing the industry’s environmental footprint. As grids transition to cleaner energy and battery production becomes more efficient, the benefits of EVs will become increasingly pronounced. The potential for electric vehicles to contribute to a sustainable future is significant. However, realizing this potential requires continued investment in renewable energy infrastructure and responsible supply chain practices. By addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by EVs, we can work towards a greener and more sustainable transportation landscape.
The Differences Between Green Energy, Renewable Energy and More
Fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gas, have been our country’s primary source of power for decades. However, the process of getting fossil fuels out of the ground and into your home creates pollution and damages ecosystems. That’s why more and more people have been pushing for cleaner, renewable energy solutions. These include green energy, clean energy, sustainable energy and more.
Although terms like renewable energy, green energy and clean energy are often used interchangeably, there are actually some key differences that set them apart. Here, we’ll take a look at various types of renewable energy solutions, what makes them different from one another and how they’re helping us move toward a future that isn’t dependent on fossil fuels.
What is renewable energy?
Renewable energy is created through the use of naturally occurring resources that replenish themselves over time. So, although there’s not an unlimited amount of these resources available at any one moment, you’ll almost never have to worry about a renewable resource running out entirely. And since renewable energy produces fewer greenhouse gases and pollutants than traditional fossil fuels, they can help to make your home more sustainable.
In 2019, the amount of energy provided by renewable sources equaled 11.4% of total U.S. energy consumption. However, the U.S. Energy Information Administration anticipates that renewable energy consumption in the United States will continue to increase through 2050.
Types of renewable energy sources
To better understand what renewable energy is and how it works, it helps to take a look at some examples of renewable energy sources and the technologies that power them. Among the most common of these sources are:
Solar energy. To create solar energy, photovoltaic cells on solar panels trap sunlight. Then, an inverter converts the sunlight into electricity that can be used in your home.
Wind energy. Wind energy works by harnessing air movement to rotate the blades on large wind turbines. The turbines then convert the kinetic energy of the rotation to mechanical power and, eventually, electricity.
Hydroelectric energy, or hydropower. One of the first energy sources used to generate electricity was hydropower. In this process, the force of running water turns the blades in a turbine, which then spins the generator that produces electricity.
Geothermal energy. Geothermal energy comes from heat located deep within the earth’s interior. It works by drilling wells into the ground, which then allows steam or water to reach the surface and power the turbines that create electricity.
Biomass energy. Biomass is a renewable material that comes from plants and animals. Some common biomass sources include wood, agricultural crops and municipal solid waste. Biomass can be converted into energy using several different methods, but the most popular approach is burning the biomass to heat buildings or power steam turbines that make electricity.
Marine energy. Although it’s still an emerging technology, marine energy leverages the ocean’s natural movements to produce energy. There are a few different types of marine energy sources being developed, such as wave energy, tidal energy, and energy from ocean currents.
Other types of energy, explained
The United States has access to a variety of energy resources, from fossil fuels to renewables. However, not all types of energy in the United States fit neatly into one of these two categories. For example, energy can also be classified as green, clean, sustainable, or alternative. Below, we’ll define these types of energy and explain what differentiates them from renewable energy.
What is green energy?
Green energy, or green power, represents the energy sources that have the least amount of environmental impact. These types of energy sources don’t release harmful carbon emissions, meaning they’re effective at helping you reduce your carbon footprint. Some examples of green energy include electricity produced from solar, wind, geothermal and other low-impact sources.
Green energy vs. renewable energy
Green energy is actually a subset of renewable energy and includes those renewable energy resources that offer the greatest environmental benefit. So, although all green energy resources are renewable, not all renewable resources are considered green. For example, wind power is green and renewable; burning wood is renewable (because you can grow more trees) but not green (because it releases pollution into the atmosphere).
What is clean energy?
Clean energy is energy that doesn’t emit any harmful greenhouse gases or pollutants during the generation process. This means that all green and renewable energy sources are also clean by definition. That said, an energy source doesn’t have to be renewable to be considered clean. For example, nuclear power is a clean energy source despite the fact that it doesn’t naturally replenish over time.
What is sustainable energy?
Sustainable energy comes from sources that can’t be depleted over time, meaning they don’t need to be regularly replenished. Some examples of sustainable energy sources include both solar and wind energy. Compare these sources to wood, crops and other biomass materials that are capable of being depleted and require time — as well as possible human intervention — to replenish.
What is alternative energy?
Alternative energy is sourced in a way that doesn’t damage ecosystems, emit greenhouse gases or have any negative impacts on the environment. So, while energy sources like biomass and hydropower are renewable, they affect the environment too much to be considered alternative. For example, sourcing biomass materials can lead to deforestation, and hydropower systems can negatively influence the habitats and feeding cycles of both water and land animals.
Making the switch to renewable energy sources
Have you ever wondered how you can help shrink your carbon footprint? It’s easier than you think. For example, you can get started with renewable energy certificates (RECs) and carbon offsets. Or you may decide to take a bigger leap and find a solar provider for your home. Ultimately, anything you can do to begin shifting away from fossil fuels will help ensure that our environment thrives well into the future.

Green Energy is Not Free: Who’s Really Paying the Price for Renewables?
THE TAXPAYERS.
THE GREEN DEAL IS A SCAM
The true reality is, nuclear energy is the most efficient and cost effective energy source that exists, and no; it isn’t like the 70s or 80s; the plants are way safer, the byproduct is way less hazardous and after a short time isn’t even toxic anymore. In fact, toxicity of the waste dissipates significantly on a daily basis. It’s nothing like the days of Chernobyl and 3 mile Island. Best of all, it’s actually reliable. Of course, the so-called green energy people aren’t going to tell you about that. SMH
That is not true. Nuclear plants are the most expensive way to produce power and cannot even compete with coal/natural gas let alone wind/solar. The capital costs are enormous, and they require 24/7 staffing, associated management, safety departments, etc.
Plus, nuclear plants need a steam loop, sophisticated control system, and a lot of instrumentation.
They are very complex, and the costs are pretty high, especially up front.
Some companies, such as Microsoft, have moved away from touting wind and solar to promoting nuclear energy. Why? Artificial Intelligence requires huge data centers needing a steady, city-sized, amount of energy. Wind and solar are too inefficient to provide that amount of consistent energy.
The power companies are guaranteed a Return On Investment, by law. They love it when the cost for generating electricity doubles every five years, because, then, their sales double, and their profits double, and their stock price doubles, all the while they’re paying a dividend to the shareholders.
Guess who the biggest proponents of ‘Green Energy’ are?
Big part of why a lot of us say that green energy isn’t.
The Costs of solar and coal are comparable now.
The nice thing about solar though, is that if cells continue to produce acceptable generation after their expected lifespan, it’s basically free.
No mine to mine, no coal to haul, no ash to dispose of.
You still need coal and oil to make solar panels and move a lot of earth which wrecks the environment. The chemicals needed are toxic and poisonous.
True American
There are actually companies in China that make solar panels with energy from the sunlight hitting the solar panels they installed for electricity.
Similar to what people in the stone age said to discourage metal use “You still need stones to make metal!”
Electricity is all well and good. The panels themselves are made from fossil fuels.
But at some point their first solar panels were made using fossil fuel (in China primarily very dirty coal).
And it is highly unlikely that the rare earth elements they use were mined using energy from wind or solar.
Energy cannot be produced for free; it is simply a matter of how well hidden the environmental costs are.
China’s national price of electricity is far cheaper than the U.S. average… largely because of renewable power.
Wind and solar are easily China’s cheapest power sources, coming in at less than $.02/KWH LCOE.
U.S. average is $.13/KWH.
Coal-fired electricity costs $.10/KWH in the U.S., but that doesn’t include the $3,500/KWH (yes, $3,500!) to construct a coal plant, where the $.02/KWH LCOE is the TOTAL cost for solar in large “farms”.
But now tell everybody how many families in China don’t have electricity because they can’t afford it, the electricity they do have is entirely unreliable because wind and solar don’t even produce power; they only charge batteries. Also, the solar farms that have been put up completely destroy actual farming land and wreck the soil, and studies are showing that they create more heat and are more damaging to the atmosphere.
Wind turbines are also more harmful to the environment, killing more wildlife, are full of toxic materials, and are even less effective and reliable than solar and just like solar; they only charge batteries and do not produce energy. Now let’s get into the awesome batteries that these two unreliable sources charge.
The mining for the materials for said batteries literally leaves giant holes in the planet miles wide and deep, and the toxicity of theses things is way worse than the panels and windmills combined and when they reach the point of being useless, which only takes a couple of short years, there’s absolutely nothing that can be done with any of them.
The things are so toxic that once they’re no longer functioning or able to hold a charge the materials from the panels, wind mills and batteries can’t ever be burned, buried, or dropped in landfills because they’re so toxic to the entire environment. But hey, who cares, because it’s cheaper in China…..to those that can afford it.
fossil fuel extraction and waste disposal is way worse for wildlife than any wind farm.
Solar is far cheaper to build and operate than coal or gas.
Only nuclear power comes close, but requires 30 years to pay off.
Nuclear doesn’t come close.
Even fully depreciated coal plants cannot compete with wind and solar, not even natural gas.
Coal and Gas were made expensive because of Obama and his regulations. Trump under his 1st term removed them, which Biden promptly returned. It is not the actual cost that is high, it is the regulations that made coal and Natural Gas expensive. Remove the regulations and they both become affordable again.
Solar panels are made from aluminum, sand, copper and a little bit of rare metals (silver, maybe a tiny bit of indium, gallium). They are 100% recyclable also! Although they easily last for more than 30 years. Most carry a 25-year warranty!
What I did not see mentioned in the slide show is the impact on wildlife especially from ocean wind farms. It’s surprising that the environmentalists who are lobbying for these wind towers don’t seem to care about this collateral issue. Animals that navigate by echolocation such as whales are especially affected as are any of the marine life that live on the ocean floor.
What this kind of article always seems to lack is a comparison to fossil fuel driven energy production. If manufacturing costs, environmental impact, and social inequality of fossil fuels are all lower than renewables, then this type of argument has a case. Otherwise it doesn’t.
Yes, producing energy is ALWAYS going to have a cost, and will probably always have a negative impact on the environment in some way. But if renewables have less negative impact, that is what matters. No one (hopefully) says that renewables are perfect. We don’t need perfection right now, we need better. And renewables are better.
Ask the opposite question:
Why are we ALL paying the price for Fossil Fuels?
Fossil fuels companies receive taxpayer money of $800 Billion per YEAR.
Gasoline would cost over $10 per gallon if we had to pay its true cost.
Toxic waste, oil spills, lung cancers, and oil and methane leaks from uncapped wells cost money and lives, yet we NEVER question this!
Is fossil fuel extraction, transportation and refining free? What about the cost of wars because of oil resources? Then dependency on foreign countries? Common fossil fuel industry, stop your propaganda.
It seems that the leftist brain worms somehow create a blind spot when China is concerned: world’s largest polluter, largest coal burner, biggest methane producer, ChiCom runs most slave labor camps and outside-China environmental disaster mining operations.
Conventional power isn’t free either. In fact it is more expensive. Green energy is the most cost effective solution.

What is ‘green’ supposed to mean?
Big $$
They don’t produce CO2. Or NOx and SOx. Or millions of tons of coal ash. Or radioactive waste. Or infect our homes with radon.
First, CO2 is necessary for plant life to flourish. Second, radon is naturally occurring and not due to someone “infect[ing] our homes with radon.”
How do you comfort yourself with biblical truth, and with God’s sovereignty,
When it seems that the world is growing more hostile, and World War III is talked about more and more openly as a real possibility in the near future?”
Cultural Marxism is destroying American society. It has led to the rise of racial tensions, radical feminism, transgender ideology, open borders, fiscal irresponsibility, the unequal protection of the laws, and the loss of our basic rights.
The effects of Marx’s ideas have already been seen in the histories of the Soviet Union and China. Yet Marxism remains popular among those who shape our cultural, academic, and political lives and in the popular movements pushing equity and diversity. All human relationships are now defined in terms of the systemic oppression of one group by another.
In “Marxism, Socialism, and Communism,” professors of history, politics, and economics look at Marx’s life and writings, the misery and brutality in the Soviet Union, the atrocities of communist China, and the proliferation of Cultural Marxism in America. They explore how many ideas animating American politics today are rooted in Marxism, and yet how they differ from Marx’s thought.
By taking Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and the Frankfurt School seriously, we can see the injustice and evil inherent in all strands of Marxism. We also better understand the critiques of communism made by Mises, Hayek, and Solzhenitsyn. We are, therefore, better equipped to defeat it.
There is no doubt that world war will be a part of the future. Christ plainly taught that there would be war prior to His return (Matthew 24:4-31). Some hold that He spoke generally of the Church age in verses 4-14 and spoke of the tribulation period starting at its midpoint in verses 15-31. Others believe that Christ spoke of only the seven-year period known as the tribulation in verses 4-31.
Though verses 4-14 do seem to be giving general descriptions, they parallel the description given early in Revelation 6, which records details concerning the beginning of the tribulation. Matthew 24:6-7 says there will be “wars and rumors of wars…For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes.” Here, Christ makes it very clear that war will play a significant role in the last seven years prior to His return.
To be more specific, the future does hold at least one more world war. There is nothing in Scripture that says there will be only a certain number of world wars. World Wars I and II are not explicitly mentioned in Scripture, nor is a possible third World War. It is only the last war that is mentioned in detail, which allows the interpretation that there may be others before the final conflict.
John the Apostle was shown what the end times would be like, specifically the last seven years prior to Christ’s return. Beginning in Revelation 6, he recorded what he saw concerning the future. War is found in this chapter, and continues to be a part of the unfolding events until Christ returns in chapter 19 (Revelation 6:2; 4; 11:7; 12:7; 13:4, 7; 16:14; 17:14; 19:11; 19:19).
Revelation 19:11 says, “. . . in righteousness He [Christ] judges and wages war.” Revelation 19:19 says John “saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him (Christ) who sat upon the horse, and against His army.” Take special notice that it says the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against Christ. This clearly describes a world war.
It also should be noted that the victor in this war is clearly Christ, who seizes the beast/antichrist and the false prophet and casts them into the lake of fire, and the armies that followed them are destroyed (Revelation 19:20-21). So, although there will be at least one more world war, there is no doubt of the outcome—righteousness will prevail as Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords, defeats all who oppose Him.
It is also worth mentioning at this time that following the 1,000-year reign of Christ, there will be another uprising which could possibly have the scope of a world war. Satan will be bound for 1,000 years and then released. Upon his release, he leads a rebellion among the peoples of the earth. Christ quickly puts down this rebellion and permanently judges Satan, casting him into the lake of fire as He did with the beast/antichrist and the false prophet (Revelation 20:7-10).
In the 20th century two world wars were fought just a little over 20 years apart.
It has now been more than 75 years since World War II, and during those years there have been many crises that pushed the world to the brink of a nuclear World War 3: Spiritual Significance of 3 – Search
The Berlin crisis (1961).
The Cuban missile crisis (1962).
The Yom Kippur War, leading to a U.S.-Soviet stare down (1973).
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine (2022).
In addition, there were many incidents where technical malfunctions, accidents or miscalculations brought nuclear forces to high alert and nearly triggered world war. How many more countries have nuclear weapons, and others could acquire them rapidly. In addition, the development of other weapons of mass destruction and other weapons systems has accelerated.
These include everything from biological weapons to chemical weapons, from hypersonic cruise missiles to killer drones. Man’s capacity to wage world war today exceeds anything previous generations could imagine. The world has seen many regional wars over the years since World War II, and there are many wars going on at the present time.
What would it take for one of today’s wars to escalate into World War 3?
World War 3 in the Bible?
Will there be another world war? The definitive answer to such a question can only be found in the Word of God. We believe we are living in the biblical age that many call the end times. The Bible speaks of major world events to take place at “the time of the end” (Daniel 11:35, 40; 12:4, 9)—the time before the second coming of Jesus Christ. These prophecies of the Bible provide the answer to the question: Will there be a World War 3?
As we begin, we acknowledge that the Bible doesn’t use the phrase World War 3. While the Bible uses different terminology, from man’s perspective there are several prophesied events that may come to be known as World War 3.
Of course, humans have always had wars, and we can’t rule out the possibility of another war involving the majority of the world even before these prophesied events occur. With this disclaimer, let’s now consider biblically prophesied wars that are going to have dire consequences for mankind.
Prophecies of end-time world war
Jesus Christ spoke of major world events to come before His return in what is called His Olivet Prophecy. His disciples began by asking Him, “What will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” (Matthew 24:3).
Christ’s reply included this warning of an unprecedented time of trouble: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened” (verses 21-22).
What does this mean for us today?
Jesus was saying this Great Tribulation will be far worse than anything the world has ever experienced. This means the loss of life will be greater than that of World War II, in which more than 50 million people died. He also said the days of this “great tribulation” will be “shortened for the elect’s sake” or no one would be left alive.
While Jesus indicates that the crisis of this tribulation will involve other factors (including natural disasters, famine and religious persecution), the description in these two verses strongly indicates there will be at least one more world-encompassing conflict in the end times before the return of Jesus Christ.
Great Tribulation
What does the Bible say about events Jesus described as “great tribulation” (Matthew 24:21) that will result in massive loss of life? A careful study shows that this future time of intense suffering includes the impact of the second seal (widespread war, described in Revelation 6:3-4) and the fifth seal (verses 9-11, religious persecution; see our article “Seven Seals”).
In Daniel 11:40-43 there is an amazing prophecy of a war between the king of the South and the king of the North. The setting is the time of the end (verse 40) when the king of the South (likely based in either North Africa or the Middle East) will attack the king of the North (a leader based in Europe). The king of the North will at some point counterattack with an enormous army and naval force crossing the Mediterranean, invading North Africa and entering the “Glorious Land,” which today is Israel (verses 40-43).
At that time an unusual event will be occurring in Jerusalem. It is explained by Jesus Christ in the Olivet Prophecy.
Religion’s role in the Great Tribulation and end-time world wars
In Matthew 24:15 Jesus warns, “Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand).” This event will take place at a time when the evening and morning sacrifices have been reinstituted at a location that is holy to the Jews.
The sacrifices will be stopped by this invasion and an “abomination of desolation” will be set up in their place. Jesus goes on to explain that, beginning with this invasion and the setting up of this abomination, the world enters into a time of “great tribulation.” Due to the scope of this impending struggle and the number of men involved in the fighting, “World War 3” may indeed be the human description of this conflict (verses 17-21; Luke 21:20-24).
Almost 200 years later Jesus prophesied that the final abomination would occur before His second coming. Unlike the first two world wars of the 20th century, this world-encompassing conflict will see religion playing a major role.
In Revelation 13:13-14 Jesus tells John through His angel about an end-time religious figure who deceives the masses: “He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast” (emphasis added throughout).
Many people will be willing to fight and die because they will be deceived by these signs. This religious figure and his deceptive religion have a name in the book of Revelation: “Mystery, Babylon the Great” (Revelation 17:5).
Religious deception did not play as big of a role in World War I and II, but that will not be the case in the prophesied end-time world war. True believers will need to be patient, keep the commandments of God and have the “faith of Jesus” to survive and avoid being deceived (Revelation 14:12).
In the time leading up to these biblically prophesied events, Jesus said man’s overall mind-set would become quite complacent to what is unfolding around him.The book of Revelation reveals that seven trumpet plagues will follow the seals and bring great suffering upon all who will choose to follow a leader referred to as “the beast.” The majority of the earth’s inhabitants will give allegiance to this leader and, as a result, suffer the consequences of this misguided decision.
The last three of the seven trumpets are called woes because of their severity. The second woe (the sixth trumpet) will result in the deaths of a third of mankind (Revelation 9:15-18).
Armageddon
If humans do not designate the Great Tribulation or events preceding it as a world war or world wars, another biblically prophesied end-time event most surely will be recognized as such. This war was spoken of by God through the Old Testament prophets.
The prophet Joel was inspired to write in the eighth century B.C., “Let the nations be awakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat [many authorities feel this refers to the Kidron Valley bordering Jerusalem on the east]. … Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision” (Joel 3:12, 14).
This battle of mankind’s remaining armies against Christ is also prophesied in the book of Zechariah: “Behold the day of the LORD is coming. … For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem” (14:1-2). The final outcome is decided when Jesus Christ sets His feet on the Mount of Olives (verse 4) to become king over all the earth (verse 9).
While many refer to this battle by the armies of all nations against Jesus Christ as Armageddon, this term is simply the name of the area northwest of Jerusalem where the armies will gather before advancing to Jerusalem to fight Christ. As the sixth of the final plagues of the book of Revelation explains, the name of this final war of this present age is “the battle of that great day of God Almighty” (Revelation 16:14).
A description of Jesus returning to earth to fight these armies and their utter destruction is found in Revelation 19:11-21 and Zechariah 14:3-4, 12.
Who will win World War 3?
Jesus Christ will win this end-time world war, and He will establish the Kingdom of God on earth. He will have the power to bring real peace. Isaiah 2:2-4 describes the justice and peace that will be hallmarks of His righteous rule:
“Now it shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
“Many people shall come and say, ‘Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths.’ For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
“He shall judge between the nations, and rebuke many people; they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.”
We pray fervently, “Your kingdom come” as we long for that time when people will learn the way of peace rather than the way of war.
Are we complacent about World War 3?
While it remains to be seen which future conflict might be called World War 3 or if all of these battles together will be given that name, there is an even more sobering and important concept for us to consider. In the end times leading up to these biblically prophesied events, Jesus said man’s overall mind-set would become quite complacent to what is unfolding around him.
Jesus said, “For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be” (Matthew 24:38-39).
This complacency will include many religious people who will mistakenly believe they are doing what God desires. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus said, ‘Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” (Matthew 7:22-23).

These leftard criminals are evil beyond just this.
All democrats in the USA very likely do this too as evidenced by their support for abortion and the open borders and the “loss”of over 100,000 children (per year) under Biden’s watchful pervert eyes. The demonKKKraps are evil at every level both in office and next door.
Why do democrats support this?
They are customers and work to protect themselves and the process in HollowWeird, many US organizations in plain sight and of course their much needed cartels. Satan worshipers and pedophiles all.
What does Our Lord think of those that know yet do nothing?
Fire and JAIL all demonKKKraps for the rest of their evil lives and take all their money and pay reparations to their victims and normal Americans (No leftard is an American, they are communists and satanic)
Let’s see how they did it.

On this episode we will examine the possible responses Israel and perhaps other nations may take if Iran decides to become openly, actively and even militarily involved in the current war between Israel and Hamas and Hezbollah. Understand that this hypothetical scenario is mine only, and is not the official policy of Israel, the United States, or any other nation. This scenario is not designed to instigate aggression towards Iran, it is simply an operational option that I personally feel would yield the best long-term results. Hosted by Colin D. Heaton.

Joe Biden established himself as a very flexible politician when it came to his positions on important issues. His lack of honesty and political integrity were established early in his career, as was his willingness to use his office for personal gain and vengeance. Hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
Upon coming into office, Joseph Biden completed the positive gains made by his predecessor, Donald Trump. Almost as in an act of revenge, he decided to use his executive orders to destroy the nation’s economy and security to appease the far-left progressives, who hated Trump and yet benefitted from his successes. Hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
Joseph Biden and his family have been getting very wealthy by illegal means for many years. Their illegitimate business contacts, violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act, violations of US and international sanctions against specific business partners, and failing to file proper, accurate, and often fraudulent IRS tax returns. But was that all? When Joe Biden left the Senate to become VP his reported net worth was just above $20,000. By the time the viewers see this, that is now $32 million.
Apple cider vinegar for weight loss: Does it really work?
Apple cider vinegar has been used medically for centuries. And while there are many claims of presumed health benefits of apple cider vinegar, weight loss is among the latest. The “apple cider vinegar weight loss diet” (sometimes called the apple cider vinegar detox) has been a trending weight loss topic for a few years. But does it work?
What is the apple cider vinegar diet?
Apple cider vinegar comes from apples that have been crushed, distilled, and then fermented. It can be consumed in small quantities or taken as a supplement. Its high levels of acetic acid, or perhaps other compounds, may be responsible for its supposed health benefits. Although recommendations for dosing vary, most are on the order of 1 to 2 teaspoons before or with meals.
Does apple cider vinegar help you lose weight?
Studies in obese rats and mice suggest that acetic acid can prevent fat deposition and improve their metabolism. The most widely quoted study of humans is a 2009 trial of 175 people who consumed a drink containing 0, 1, or 2 tablespoons of vinegar each day. After three months, those who consumed vinegar had modest weight loss (2 to 4 pounds) and lower triglyceride levels than those who drank no vinegar.
How To Use Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) For Weight Loss (Science Based)
You may have heard that adding apple cider vinegar to your daily diet can help you lose weight and body fat. Apple cider vinegar is a cherished natural remedy with a lot of surprising health benefits. In addition, scientific studies, as well as practical experiences, show that adding apple cider vinegar (ACV) to your diet can boost your weight loss efforts.
Apple Cider Vinegar Diet
Apple cider vinegar is one of those substances that target the weight gain problem holistically, and it provides you with a long-term solution.
This article will help you understand how apple cider vinegar works to encourage weight loss and how to use it as part of your daily diet. I am also going to look at what the research says about the connection between apple cider vinegar and weight reduction.
Can Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Lose Weight?
The most interesting study on how apple cider vinegar helps with weight loss was published in 2009 in the Bioscience, Biotechnology and Biochemistry journal.
The scientific study found that adding 2 tbsp. of vinegar (such as apple cider vinegar) to your diet for just three months can cause significant weight loss. According to the study, apple cider vinegar can also help you lose abdominal fat (belly fat), reduce waist circumference, and decrease blood triglycerides.

Apple cider vinegar is made from crushed apples, then distilled and fermented. The result is a liquid that is high in acetic acid.
Apple cider vinegar taps into several physiological mechanisms that support healthy weight loss:
1. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) acts as an appetite suppressor
Apple cider vinegar makes you eat less by producing a feeling of satiety sooner.
One medical research that proved that empirically was a 2005 study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Subjects who ate bread with vinegar felt significantly fuller than their counterparts who were fed only bread. The more acetic acid (the primary constituent of vinegar) the participants ingested, the fuller they were.
2. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) controls blood sugar levels to help suppress appetite
Apple cider vinegar prevents uncontrollable sugar spikes and crashes that make you want to nibble between meals. When your blood sugar is stable, it’s much easier to stick to your diet and eat only when your body needs it.
The previously mentioned study also measured blood sugar levels in the vinegar-fed and control group. Participants who were given ACV had significantly lower post-meal blood glucose levels (there was no spike that usually follows a meal high in carbohydrates). Furthermore, those who consumed a higher dose of vinegar, benefited from the effect even 90 minutes after eating.
3. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) prevents fat accumulation
Apple cider vinegar stimulates your metabolism and makes you burn fat faster. It contains a lot of organic acids and enzymes that speed up your metabolism and increase the rate at which body fat is burnt.
There aren’t many human studies that would support this explanation. A Japanese study published in 2009 was observing the effects of acetic acid on rats that were fed a diet high in fats. The scientist concluded that the consumption of acetic acid (which is found in ACV) suppressed fat accumulation. ACV can also help you to reduce cholesterol.
4. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has an impact on insulin secretion to reduce fat storage
Insulin affects fat storage. This hormone is closely linked to blood sugar levels and its secretion is disturbed in people suffering from type 2 diabetes. Scientists suggested that ACV might work in a similar way to some diabetic drugs and could have a potential in controlling diabetes. If you suffer from type 2 diabetes, make sure to consume these foods and these spices.
5. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) may help with detoxification and digestion
It’s important for your body to get rid of toxins. A medical study found that apple cider vinegar can be beneficial for treating oxidative stress.
There is some evidence suggesting that vinegar consumption could help with gastroesophageal reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, and hypochlorhydria (low stomach acid). However the results are not conclusive.
You can find extremely detailed information on how to detox your body with ACV in my post on how to make ACV detox drinks.
What Type of Apple Cider Vinegar Should You Use for Losing Weight?
When using apple cider vinegar for weight loss, and to get the most health benefits, it’s important to get ACV that hasn’t been processed and is still in its “raw” form.
Raw unprocessed apple cider vinegar still contains the “mother” which is the cloudy bits that should be floating around the liquid, and retains many of the health benefits of ACV.
You can buy any brand of ACV as part of the apple cider vinegar diet
Any brand of ACV that is unpasteurized, unfiltered and organic can be used for weight loss.
You don’t need to worry that the ACV is not pasteurized since the high acidity level is high enough to kill bacteria such as E.coli. But just remember that many doctors recommend pregnant women to avoid consuming any unpasteurized foods to reduce the risk of foodborne illness that could potentially harm the baby.
What is Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar Diet?
One of the most well-known organic ACV brands is Bragg which can be purchased online, in many supermarkets and health food stores. Lots of people like to use Bragg apple cider vinegar with mother for weight loss because it’s a well known brand and they even use the term “bragg’s vinegar diet“. But as I mentioned earlier, you can use any brand of ACV as long as it’s unpasteurized, unfiltered and organic.
How to Take Apple Cider Vinegar To Lose Weight
According to the study about using the apple cider vinegar diet you should:
Start by adding 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to a cup of water and drink it once a day to encourage weight loss. Then, increase the amount of vinegar per serving, and the frequency of drinking to encourage fat loss.
According to the above research on apple cider vinegar, you should consume a daily amount of 2tablespoons of vinegar mixed with a cup of water to increase fat loss.
If you are not used to the taste and effects of apple cider vinegar, you might want to include it into your diet gradually.
Apple cider vinegar is very acidic, so you need to dilute it to protect your teeth, throat and the lining of your stomach. Don’t drink undiluted ACV as it can do more harm than good. You can also drink the apple cider vinegar water with a straw to protect your tooth enamel.
Do You Need to Add Honey to the Apple Cider Vinegar Weight Loss Water?
Some find the taste of vinegar difficult to stomach. To improve the flavor of the ACV drink, you can add a bit of honey to your vinegar serving.
The combination of honey and ACV has many health benefits which you can read about in my article about the 16 health benefits of apple cider vinegar and honey, or you can drink it with your tea. Wait for the tea to cool a bit before adding the ACV and honey and drink. You can also have vinegar with your meal.
How to Use Apple Cider Vinegar in Your Diet
Here are a few tips on how to include apple cider vinegar in your diet to promote weight loss:
Apple cider vinegar goes very well with some soups, especially in long-simmered bean soups or rich meat-based soups. Just remember to add the ACV to the soup once it has cooled down to prevent nutrient loss due to high heat.
When and How Often Do You Need to Drink Apple Cider Vinegar Water for Weight Loss?
To kick start the metabolism and influence the feeling of fullness, some believe that it’s best to drink apple cider vinegar water about an hour before your meal to improve digestion and help you lose more weight.
Some also suggest drinking apple cider vinegar water first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, to boost the metabolism. However some people don’t like drinking ACV on an empty stomach, and others prefer to drink it after eating.
Whatever is suitable for you, you can consume it 2 – 3 times a day but don’t exceed the recommended amount of about 2 tablespoons per day. If you feel any burning sensation in your stomach or nausea, you can reduce the amount of ACV or try not to drink it on an empty stomach.
Some people also recommend taking a break every now and then from consuming ACV to give your body a break so they take a week or two off after every few months.
Does Apple Cider Vinegar Consumption Have Side Effects?
Apple cider vinegar is generally safe to consume. However, as with all natural remedies and traditional treatments, there are some precautions you should take.
What is the maximum amount of ACV consumption?
Consumption of too much ACV can cause low potassium levels and may lead to osteoporosis.
However, this was reported in a woman who was drinking around 8 oz. apple cider vinegar a day for several years. The amounts that are recommended in this article (1-3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar a day diluted in water) are safe for general consumption.
Can you drink ACV by itself?
You should always dilute apple cider vinegar. It is very acidic and can burn the tissues in your mouth and throat so always dilute the ACV with water. As I mentioned previously, acidic foods such as ACV can weaken tooth enamel. To prevent this happening, rinse your mouth with a glass of water after drinking a glass of diluted ACV or drink it with a straw. It’s also a good idea to avoid brushing your teeth immediately after you drink the apple cider vinegar weight loss water.
Does Consumption of ACV interfere with medications?
Apple cider vinegar can interact with other medications like diuretics, laxatives, heart, and diabetes medication. If you regularly take medication, consult with your doctor before starting the apple cider vinegar diet.
Why Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) Is the Best Type of Vinegar for Losing Weight
Apple cider vinegar is seen as a superior choice due to its all-encompassing health benefits. It cleanses the body and it also has anti-microbial properties. Not only does ACV help with weight loss, it also has a positive effect on some other conditions.
Can You Lose Weight by Taking Apple Cider Vinegar Pills or Tablets?
Some companies manufacture apple cider vinegar in tablet, pill or capsule form. These pills contain a powdered apple cider vinegar, which can help you if you find it difficult to adjust to the taste of liquid ACV. However it’s best to avoid these tablets and consume apple cider vinegar in its liquid form.
It’s good to remember that the FDA does not control supplements such as ACV tablets and you cannot be sure about their actual content. In fact apple cider vinegar capsules may not contain as much ACV as what it says on the label. In addition, some of the beneficial nutrients in liquid apple cider vinegar could be destroyed during the manufacturing process of the supplements.
The Journal of the American Dietetic Association reported in 2005 about esophageal injury caused by apple cider vinegar tablets, and subsequent testing of eight apple cider vinegar tablet products. The tests found considerable inconsistency and inaccuracy in label claims regarding recommended dosages, pH and acid content, casting doubt as to whether ACV was in fact an ingredient in the tested products.
You also need to be aware that the study published in 2009 in the Bioscience, Biotechnology and Biochemistry journal, did not test the effect of ACV pills on weight loss but rather the effect of liquid apple cider vinegar. It is therefore best to consume liquid apple cider vinegar diluted with water if you want to get the best weight loss results. If the acidic taste bothers you, you can add a little bit of honey to improve the taste.
Mixing Garcinia Cambogia and Apple Cider Vinegar – Can it Accelerate Weight Loss?
A lot of people became interested in garcinia cambogia after Dr. Oz spoke about it on his show. He used terms for garcinia cambogia supplements like “fat buster,” “holy grail of fat loss, and “it can increase weight loss by 2-3 times.”
Many people claim that mixing garcinia cambogia and apple cider vinegar together may help you lose weight quicker.
Does the garcinia cambogia and apple cider vinegar diet really work?
What To Expect When Taking Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)?
How much time it takes to lose weight with the apple cider vinegar diet
The apple cider vinegar diet will not provide you with quick weight loss results. You’ll lose weight and fat gradually and not overnight. Don’t be impatient and allow it some time. Sometimes losing just one pound a month and not re-gaining it afterwards, can be the real success.
How to increase weight loss with the apple cider vinegar diet
How fast you’ll lose weight depends on other factors as well, such as your exercise, nutrition, stress and genetic factors. For best and fastest weight loss effects, you need to combine the consumption of the apple cider vinegar water with other techniques for losing weight, so the function of vinegar gets supported with lifestyle changes.
Here a few more articles that you may want to read to learn about effective weight loss techniques:
How To Speed Up Your Weight Loss With The Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) Diet

Lisa was diagnosed with stage 3C endometrial cancer in June 2017.
After six months of chemotherapy and six surgeries, she was unable to continue my course of treatment which involved six weeks of radiation due to a compromised immune system. Her immune system was extremely depleted, and she was told she was at a higher risk for recurrence, Lisa sought out how to boost her body’s immune system and keep herself in remission.
Lisa is often heard saying, “I truly wake up every day and ask God to put someone in my path that is struggling with their cancer diagnosis and healing.” In her spare time, Lisa enjoys researching Cancer, reading, and spending time with her family. Lisa believes in the importance of “self care days,” where she spends time walking the beach, forest bathing, working out at the gym, and visiting fresh produce markets.
She quickly found the Radical Remission 10 healing factors and started implementing them into her daily life.
The 10 Radical Remission Healing Factors
Empowering Yourself
Finding Strong Reasons For Living
Radically Changing your Diet
Having a Spiritual Connection
Using Herbs & Supplements
Increasing Exercise & Movement
Following your Intuition
Releasing Suppressed Emotions
Increasing Positive Emotions
Finding Social Support
Radical Remission has been at the forefront in Lisa overcoming cancer and staying in remission.
When Lisa Tarantino was diagnosed with stage III endometrial cancer in 2017, she dove into treatment with a positive mindset, intent on survival. She endured six surgeries accompanied by six months of aggressive chemotherapy.
Tarantino’s son, C.J., went along, not only for support and company, but also to help with what is called “cold capping.” More than half of all chemo patients lose their hair, but with cold capping, a series of dry ice-cooled caps that cause blood vessels in the scalp to narrow, the amount of harsh chemicals reaching hair follicles is reduced.
“Cold capping is becoming more popular,’’ Tarantino says. “I only lost about 20% of the hair framing my face but it grew back nicely.”
Tarantino was grateful for her son’s presence during the six-hour sessions. “It’s common for patients to be alone,” she says. “It’s a long day. No one wants to ask someone to sit there for four, five, six hours. Not everyone can handle it but it tugged at my heart to see others without anyone. My son would kid me: ‘Do you have to talk to everybody?’”
After scheduling Tarantino for radiation, her doctors told her that due to a genetic predisposition to a low white blood cell count, she was ineligible.
Rather than giving up, however, she broadened her research.
“The medical community helped save my life,” she says, “but I realized that it was up to me to continue my healing. I work at it every day. I have to.”
BOOSTING IMMUNE SYSTEM
The human body’s immune system is designed to fight off disease and keep it healthy. Cancer treatment can actually damage the system. As Tarantino attended multiple cancer support groups from Stuart to West Palm Beach and studied everything she could find on the subject, she learned about the importance of non-medical boosts to the immune system such as exercise and nutrition.
Tarantino was especially drawn to the New York-based Radical Remission Project, launched by Kelly Turner, PhD. After studying more than 1,500 cancer patients worldwide who experienced a radical, unexpected remission, Turner isolated 10 universally common factors: self-empowerment, deepening spiritual connections, an increase in positive emotions, following personal intuition, releasing suppressed emotions, diet changes, herbs and supplements, developing a strong reason for living, joy and happiness, and increasing social support.
Tarantino’s health improved as she focused on the 10 factors; a passion grew to share with others ways they could also benefit. She became a certified functional nutrition counselor, a full body systems graduate, a radical remission hope coach, a holistic cancer coach and a member of the health navigator community.
Tarantino, a caregiver for her husband, Charles, a disabled Vietnam veteran and fellow cancer survivor, began her own business. Tarantino Coaching and Wellness enabled her to work one-on-one and with groups for classes and workshops. Business was one thing — she also longed for a cancer support group for patients and their families in her own backyard.
Tarentino earned certifications that enable her to provide training to support group members as she shares her experiences with them at the group’s weekly meetings.
HOME-GROWN SUPPORT
Four and a half years ago, a friend invited Tarantino to a Bible study at Christ Fellowship Church in Tradition, where support groups for a variety of issues — substance abuse, divorce and grief — were offered. She approached the care pastor about a meeting for cancer support. “He said he’d always wanted one, but there wasn’t anyone to facilitate.”
Tarantino volunteered and “absolutely fell in love” with the community that meets Tuesday evenings at 6:30 in Room 213. There is no charge for attendance but when off-site workshops are offered as part of Tarantino’s business, support group members receive a discount.
“During the pandemic, we moved to Zoom but now we’re hybrid — Zoom and in-person,” Tarantino says. “If someone isn’t feeling well after chemo or they’re out of state, they can still participate. I [started the group] to help others, but it blesses me. I’m so proud of the way the group embraces new members. They’ve become a family.”
Relating to people who understand one’s circumstances and share similar challenges is key to social support. Cancer patients often experience alienation and isolation, adding another layer of trauma.
Group member Bonnie Gallucci is a former Air Force nurse. She remembers when doctors made house calls and would touch her on the shoulder, telling her that everything was going to be OK. “People have forgotten how important that human connection is. That’s what we give people here: comfort and compassionate care.”
After the group recently watched a video on the science behind the mind-body connection, one woman shared about realizing what she was missing. While her family told her what she should or shouldn’t be doing, they’d stopped hugging her. As if cancer could be “caught.”
As other members of the group laid a hand on her shoulder,
she determined to speak up about what she needed at home.
Gallucci says that people who haven’t experienced cancer mean well, but don’t always know how to respond — unlike the group. “I can be down, then come to a meeting and walk out feeling so much better.”
Radical Remission™ Project “Stories That Heal” Podcast is dedicated to sharing true stories of people who have overcome the odds of their diagnosis and the personal experiences witnessed by their healers. We hope these stories will inspire you to become the leader of your healing journey!
How it all began...
The Radical Remission™ Project was born out of Kelly A. Turner, PhD’s dissertation research on radical remissions. As Dr. Turner continued the research and realized that the opinions of two groups of people were typically missing from the 1,000+ cases published in medical journals – the survivors themselves and their alternative healers.
Because conventional medical doctors do not currently have an explanation for why radical remissions occur, Dr. Turner decided to ask these two ignored groups what they thought could lead to a radical remission.
Finally found clothes as colorful as I am AND warm enough for this Florida born and raised woman to be able to flourish living in the Pacific Northwest. @karitraa
This is such a big deal for me because I spent so many seasons just being underdressed and not having the right things to be comfortable. I spent too much time indoors and this made me miserable! Now it’s just a matter of giving myself permission to actually wear and dirty my nice clothes. Loving myself enough to clothe myself with the right things so that I can have the great privilege of being outside in the elements of nature.
Being outdoors always inspires me and fills up my tank of spiritual fuel. It brings me closer to God and helps me to connect with myself in a deeper way than being plugged into the world ever could.
I am still trying to rid my closet of all my synthetic fibers and have all natural garments. At the same time I have been educated of the survival benefits of having a layer of synthetic clothing instead of cotton if I am ever in an avalanche or stuck in extreme wet and cold weather. As much as I prefer to not wear plastic, I am being ever so diligent in my process of slow shopping and revitalizing my personal wardrobe.
Plus with that recent shopping encounter, where I found a shirt at the thrift store that made me feel the difference of finding a sacred heaven’s yes piece compared to settling for a soso garment to wear… how could I invest in something that was opposite of that?
This is the first time I ever “came out” & experienced exposure therapy on a wide scale coming out to the general public without shame or shying away from truth. Exposure therapy for me was the process of returning back to repressed memories & buried information that was denied, ignored, bypassed & attempted to be forgotten as an ego defense mechanism to cope.
It was speaking over and over again to myself & others about my personal experiences until there was no longer an unbearable emotional response to the remembrance or stimulus associated with the childhood experiences. Part of being transparent with myself & the world comes with a sense of honoring what was & is real for me and many others.
I believe it is important to break the stigma and normalize talking about what is currently activating instead of only after the event passes. Example if I am experiencing a depression, may it be nursed and spoken to with proper attunement while it is occurring instead of it only be safe to say that “I used to feel this way” or worse when it is too late
For me this has also been an act of self love and self acceptance after many years of self hatred & rejection. The changing of the self image in my own mind and removing all imaginations of stereotype threat and the fear of man. Fear of rejection or perceived rejection can be disabling and reinforce patterns that are not conducive to getting the social support needed. Social support is crucial to thriving and fostering resilience.
I am also an advocate for the belief that in order for me to be truly loved for who I really am, that the truth of me is to be there to be loved, not a mask or facade. For then the world would love the idea of me and the image that I made up instead of the authenticity of the core of me.
In the memory of me I would like there to be a wake of individuals who recognize the value and importance of remembering their fullest potential & living a life in accordance to the importance of doing our part that will contribute to the children not yet born ,along with the children who are currently being formed into elders
May it not be forgotten who we really are under the core of all our programming,
From rape to redemption.
I am starting to write my book about my life and I am including my testimony about my personal life experiences.My trauma left me very disrupted in ways unspeakable and I grew to study CPTSD.
I began to process all that I was unable to. I trained in so many areas to heal myself. I read the body, kept the score and did so many earthly things to educate myself & re-regulate my nervous system.
Last year I became a certified deliverance minister
I am now a part of Restored to Freedom ministry
If you have experienced demonic oppression, you know it
Jesus Christ of Nazareth said these signs shall follow those who believe, in my name they will force demons to come out of people, they will speak in new languages, they will handle snakes with safety, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them in anyway, they will lay their hands on the sick and they will get better. #Mark16
I had several generational curses over me and my bloodline. I went through a process of Sozo and getting my soul wounds cleaned up, healed and restored.
Now I am determined to help others who need the help too.
If you have been feeling punished or under spiritual attack, I have a great gift of discernment and I would love to step into intercession. I can help translate and offer you insightful education around the situation at hand.
Many physical sufferings are expressions of spiritual root bound work that can be uprooted, processed, & destroyed.
Anyone who has actually ever known me in person can physically see the changes in me. I am a completely new person and have a greater understanding of my God given gifts.
Miracles, Helps, Craftsmanship, Exhortation, and many more.
Samantha Rose Baldwin holds her cat Kitty after fleeing the Palisades Fire. (@samantharosebaldwin)
Story by Glenn Garner
‘Gossip Girl’s Samantha Rose Baldwin Ran Through Palisades Fire to Save Her Cat, As wildfires ravage Southern California, many evacuees have been separated from their pets while fleeing impacted areas.
The amount of support I’ve received over these last few days has been positively overwhelming and to everyone who has reached out—friends old and new—I’d like to extend a massive “thank you.” While my cat and father are safe and I’m grateful to be alive, I’d like to encourage anyone looking to help me or others during this devastating time to extend those efforts towards those who have not been as lucky as my family and myself. I’m collecting donations for two local resources are helping those displaced by the wildfires here in Los Angeles,
Samantha Rose Baldwin, an actress who appeared in the Gossip Girl reboot, detailed the “terrifying” experience of running through the Palisades Fire to save her 10-year old tortoiseshell cat Kitty.
“It was an immediate spring into action and an amalgamation of questions racing through my head – can I get my cat out? Is my dad safe and getting ready to leave?” she explained to DailyMail.com.
While her father was helping evacuate students at a nearby elementary school, where he worked as a security guard before it ultimately burned down in the fires, Baldwin attempted to get home.
With bumper-to-bumper traffic that would have taken her two hours to get to her apartment, Baldwin “decided to park my car and run,” adding: “I ran for about 15 minutes on Sunset Boulevard until I made it home.”
The actress said it “took 20 minutes for me to find her” once she got inside her apartment, as Kitty “had gone into her best hiding spot which was inside the couch. I grabbed her and wrapped her up in a blanket and put her inside my cat carrier backpack.”
“Once we got outside, the fire had gotten closer to us and the path going back to my car was now no longer an option,” she continued. “I thought to myself, ‘Where am I supposed to go?’ The fire was all around us. The terrifying part was when a big gust of wind and smoke came in so fast that you couldn’t see anything.”
Baldwin said, “Here I was stuck between the fire and the ocean, so it only made sense to get to the water. I was genuinely running for my life with my cat strapped to my back and a suitcase rolling behind me.
“I had to dart in and out of the cars and dodge flaming branches and palm leaves falling to the ground all around me like a minefield. It felt like something I would see or do in an action movie, not my real life,” she explained, adding: “While I was running towards the ocean, I called my Mom and told her I loved her. I honestly didn’t know if I was going to make it.”

Baldwin was reunited with her father and is now staying with a friend in North Hollywood.
“My body aches. I feel like I got hit by a bus and ran over three times. I had so much ash on my face yesterday that I looked like I just walked out of Mad Max,” she noted. “My chest hurts and my throat is a bit scratchy, but overall I am so thankful to be alive, and that my Dad and cat are safe.”
As of Saturday, at least 11 people have died in the Southern California wildfires, which have forced approximately 105,000 people to evacuate the Palisades area, destroying at least 5,316 structures, including 426 homes. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has received 13 missing persons reports.
“Over 100,000 people have been ordered to evacuate communities impacted by the Southern California wildfires,” wrote Biden on X. “At least two people have been killed. And many more are injured – including firefighters. It’s devastating. To the residents of Southern California: We are with you.”
In Georgia, numerous generations of Carters worked as cotton farmers.[5] Plains was a boomtown of 600 people at the time of Carter’s birth. His father was a successful local businessman who ran a general store and was an investor in farmland.[6] Carter’s father had previously served as a reserve second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps during World War I.[6]
During Carter’s infancy, his family moved several times, settling on a dirt road in nearby Archery, which was almost entirely populated by impoverished African American families.[2][7] His family eventually had three more children, Gloria, Ruth, and Billy.[8]
Carter had a good relationship with his parents, even though his mother was often absent during his childhood since she worked long hours. Although his father was staunchly pro-segregation, he allowed Jimmy to befriend the black farmhands’ children.[9] Carter was an enterprising teenager who was given his own acre of Earl’s farmland, where he grew, packaged, and sold peanuts.[10] Carter also rented out a section of tenant housing he had purchased.[2]
Education
Carter attended Plains High School from 1937 to 1941, graduating from the 11th grade as class valedictorian;[11] the school did not have a 12th grade.[12] By that time, Archery and Plains had been impoverished by the Great Depression, but the family benefited from New Deal farming subsidies, and Carter’s father became a community leader.[10][13]
Carter was a diligent student with a fondness for reading.[14] According to a popular anecdote, he was passed over for valedictorian after he and his friends skipped school to venture downtown in a hot rod. Carter’s truancy was mentioned in a local newspaper, although it is not clear he would otherwise have been valedictorian.[15] As an adolescent, Carter played on the Plains High School basketball team and joined Future Farmers of America, which helped him develop a lifelong interest in woodworking.[15]
While at Georgia Tech, Carter took part in the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps.[18] Van Leer encouraged Carter to join the Naval Academy.[19] In 1943, he received an appointment to the Naval Academy from the U.S. Representative Stephen Pace, and Carter graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 1946.[20][18] He was a good student, but was seen as reserved and quiet, in contrast to the academy’s culture of aggressive hazing of freshmen.[21]
While at the academy, Carter fell in love with Rosalynn Smith, a friend of his sister Ruth.[22] The two wed shortly after his graduation in 1946, and were married until her death on November 19, 2023.[23][24] Carter was a sprint football player for the Navy Midshipmen and a standout freshman cross country runner.[25][26] He graduated 60th out of 821 midshipmen in the class of 1947[a] with a Bachelor of Science degree and was commissioned as an ensign.[28]
Carter was promoted to lieutenant junior grade in 1949, and his service aboard Pomfret included a simulated war patrol to the western Pacific and Chinese coast from January to March of that year.[31] In 1951, Carter was assigned to the diesel/electric USS K-1 (SSK-1), qualified for command, and served in several positions, to include executive officer.[32]
In 1952, Carter began an association with the Navy’s fledgling nuclear submarine program, led by then-Captain Hyman G. Rickover.[33] Rickover had high standards and demands for his men and machines, and Carter later said that, next to his parents, Rickover had the greatest influence on his life.[34] Carter was sent to the Naval Reactors Branch of the Atomic Energy Commission in Washington, D.C., for three-month temporary duty, while Rosalynn moved with their children to Schenectady, New York.[35]
On December 12, 1952, an accident with the experimental NRX reactor at Atomic Energy of Canada‘s Chalk River Laboratories caused a partial meltdown, resulting in millions of liters of radioactive water flooding the reactor building’s basement. This left the reactor’s core ruined.[36] Carter was ordered to Chalk River to lead a U.S. maintenance crew that joined other American and Canadian service personnel to assist in the shutdown of the reactor.[37]
The painstaking process required each team member to don protective gear and be lowered individually into the reactor for 90 seconds at a time, limiting their exposure to radioactivity while they disassembled the crippled reactor. When Carter was lowered in, his job was to turn a single screw.[38] During and after his presidency, Carter said that his experience at Chalk River had shaped his views on atomic energy and led him to cease the development of a neutron bomb.[39]
In March 1953, Carter began a six-month nuclear power plant operation course at Union College in Schenectady.[29] His intent was to eventually work aboard USS Seawolf, which was intended to be the second U.S. nuclear submarine.[40] His plans changed when his father died of pancreatic cancer in July, two months before construction of Seawolf began, and Carter obtained a release from active duty so he could take over the family peanut business.[41][42]
Deciding to leave Schenectady proved difficult, as Rosalynn had grown comfortable with their life there.[43][44] She later said that returning to small-town life in Plains seemed “a monumental step backward.”[45] Carter left active duty on October 9, 1953.[46][47]
After debt settlements and division of his father’s estate among its heirs, Jimmy inherited comparatively little.[51] For a year, he, Rosalynn, and their three sons lived in public housing in Plains.[b] Carter was knowledgeable in scientific and technological subjects, and he set out to expand the family’s peanut-growing business.[53]
Transitioning from the Navy to farming was difficult as his first-year harvest failed due to a drought, and Carter had to open several bank lines of credit to keep the farm afloat.[54] Meanwhile, he took classes and studied agriculture while Rosalynn learned accounting to manage the business’s books.[55] Though they barely broke even the first year, the Carters grew the business and became quite successful.[52][55] Source: Jimmy Carter – Wikipedia
The former president — who holds the record for the nation’s longest-lived president — has spent 19 months in hospice care but has overcome many health issues over the years, most notably his battle with cancer.
Carter was 91 years old in August 2015 when he announced that melanoma had been discovered during surgery to remove a small mass in his liver. At that point, the disease had spread to other parts of his body, including four “very small” spots in his brain.
But within months, the Nobel Peace Prize winner revealed that the cancer was completely gone following a successful surgery and innovative immunotherapy treatments.
“For the public, Carter put immunotherapy on the map, period,” Drew Pardoll, director of the Bloomberg-Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy at Johns Hopkins, told the Washington Post. “Patients started asking for it.” It was called “the Jimmy Carter effect.”
Here’s what to know about the immunotherapy treatment that extended his life.
“Immunotherapy is now considered a standard pillar of cancer therapy alongside surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy,” Dr. Jedd Wolchok, director of the Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medicine, tells PEOPLE.
“The particular kind of immunotherapy that President Carter and many other people receive is called checkpoint blockade, which is essentially a treatment that cuts off molecular breaks that usually keep our immune system under control,” he explains. “And the idea is that by cutting off these molecular breaks, we let the immune system run at a higher level than it otherwise could, and therefore overcome some of the ways in which cancer can cloak itself from the immune system.”
Following his diagnosis, Carter’s melanoma was treated with immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, which had only been FDA-approved the previous year.
Wolchok — a member of the American Association for Cancer Research’s Board of Directors — says that the entire class of medication “transformed” the treatment of melanoma. There had been no previous drugs to treat the disease and improve survival time.
Wolchok recently published a study in the New England Journal of Medicine that analyzed these immunotherapies and improving survival rates after a decade of treatment.
Survival times for brain metastases, which is what President Carter had, were even shorter than that six and a half months, Wolchok notes. Although immunotherapy was fairly new when Carter was treated, Wolchok adds that it is now crucial in almost every patient’s treatment plan for metastatic melanoma.
In Carter’s case, he was able to stop treatment after about six months. Nine years later he is still cancer-free at 100 years old.
Wolchok tells PEOPLE that this is one of the benefits of immunotherapy.
“President Carter has been off treatment for many years, and I think that’s an advantage of immunotherapy because the drugs are not directly targeting the tumor cells. The drugs are actually enabling immune cells to do the heavy lifting and controlling the cancer,” he explains. “So if the drugs are working well, you shouldn’t need to continue them for very long periods of time because the job of the medicines is to really invigorate the immune cells and recognize the cancer in a more forceful way.”
“We know that the immune system has a memory and it remembers those educating events for decades,” Wolchok continues. “Now, it is true of course, that the immune system can become less effective as we get older, but thankfully we have seen that this kind of treatment can help people even when they reach an advanced age.”
“With 10 years of follow-up in the groups in the trial, nearly half of the patients were free from dying from metastatic melanoma. This is a disease where the average survival as recently as 2010 was six and a half months. Now the average survival is actually about six years,” he shares.
Film Description
Jimmy Carter’s story is one of the greatest dramas in American politics.
In 1980, he was overwhelmingly voted out of office in a humiliating defeat. Over the subsequent two decades, he became one of the most admired statesmen and humanitarians in America and the world. Through interviews with the people who know him best, Jimmy Carter traces his rapid ascent in politics, dramatic fall from grace and unexpected resurrection, including Carter family home movies and a rare film sequence of Carter’s final hours in the Oval Office, when he and his advisors waited in vain for the release of the Americans who had been held hostage in Tehran for 444 days.
Carter was the first president to confront the challenge of militant Islam, then embodied by Ayatollah Khomeini, leader of the Iranian revolution. Carter was also the first president to embark on what would prove to be the excruciating road to peace in the Middle East. But in the end, his presidency was undone by his failure to secure the hostages’ release and by a plummeting economy.
Yet the memories of his presidency — gas lines, inflation, recession, the Iran hostage crisis, an ineffectual and fractured administration, and the so-called national malaise — would be eclipsed, finally, by his post-presidential successes as a peacemaker in the world’s most troubled areas, and his emergence as a champion for the poor in his own country.
High fructose corn syrup was introduced in the 1970s as a bid to stabilize food prices. At the time, President Richard Nixon authorized subsidizing corn crops to get farmers to grow more of them.
That excess led to the development of high-fructose corn syrup, which became cheaper to produce than sugar. Thus, it ended up everywhere.
Seed oils – which include sunflower, canola, corn and grapeseed – became popular in the United States after WWII thanks to agricultural advances.
Now, experts estimate the average American consumes almost 100 pounds of them per year, according to some estimates, which is up 1,000-fold compared to the 1950s.
I’m a colon cancer doctor – a few common ingredients may be the cause
Dr Maria Abreu, a gastroenterologist at the University of Miami, shared that preventing colon cancer needs to start at any early age
Dr Abreu said these ingredients wreak havoc on the microbiome, a network of healthy bacteria in our guts. When this delicate ecosystem becomes damaged, it reduces our ability to protect the digestive tract from pathogens that irritate our cells and create inflammation.
Over time, that inflammation can cause the formation of premalignant cells and lead them to multiply quickly, a process called proliferation.
Chronic inflammation can also lead to inflammatory bowel conditions like Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, which Dr Abreu said ‘significantly’ raises the risk of colon cancer.
She notes the introduction of high-fructose corn syrup and emulsifiers in the 1970s and 80s could explain why so many adults in their 40s are getting colon cancer at record rates.
Researchers from the University of Missouri-Kansas City recently looked at rates of colorectal cancer in people 10 to 44 years old over the last two decades and found cases had risen in all age groups.
The rate of colorectal cancers grew 500 percent among children ages 10 to 14 and 333 percent among teenagers aged 15 to 19 years.
Rates rose by 71 percent among people 30 to 34 to seven cases per 100,000 people. Among people 35 to 39, rates rose by 58 percent to 12 cases per 100,000 people.
Dr Abreu said: ‘Chronic inflammation leads to colon cancer, and I suspect that’s transformative in this new rise of young people developing colon cancer.’
She noted similar effects have been seen with emulsifiers.

Emulsifiers are common additives that help give dairy-free and low- and nonfat foods their combined and creamy texture. Ice cream and cream cheese are some of the most common foods containing these additives.
Common emulsifiers include soy lecithin, sucralose, xanthan gum, carrageenan, maltodextrin and polysorbate, all of which appear on ingredient labels.
Dr Abreu said: ‘One of the things that has changed very dramatically in our food supply is the addition of emulsifiers.’
A 2021 study published in the Journal of Physiology found six-week-old mice – the equivalent of a human teenager – who were given diets high in high-fructose corn syrup had ‘profound’ changes to their microbiome.
As for emulsifiers, one 2022 study found when mice consumed diets high in emulsifiers, their offspring experienced destruction of their intestinal barrier, leading to inflammation. The mice in the experiment were three weeks old, the equivalent of a human infant.
Dr Abreu noted this could be because children’s microbiomes are not as diverse and stable as an adult’s, so additives like emulsifiers and high-fructose corn syrup could have a larger impact on them than they would as adults.
To cut down on both additives, she recommends parents avoid pre-flavored or pre-sweetened foods and instead add sweeteners or flavors at home.
She uses Greek yogurt as an example.
While the breakfast staple is high in healthy bacteria called probiotics, which help regulate the microbiome, flavored varieties can be sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup.
Dr Abreu said: ‘I certainly don’t want to rat out yogurt as bad for you. Yogurt is one of the best things you can buy.
‘Greek yogurt, made naturally, can be a wonderful snack for people. But if you start eating stuff that’s really more sugar and milk than there is yogurt, that’s changing our gut bacteria.’
Instead, she suggests buying plain, unsweetened varieties and adding your own toppings like honey, granola, and fruit to make it taste better.
‘Even if you added table sugar to it, it would still have a whole lot less sugar than what they’ve added for you,’ she said.
‘Food made at home is still much better.’
However, other experts aren’t so sure these additives are all bad.
While high-fructose corn syrup has no known health benefits, some experts have claimed it’s not detrimental to health as long as the rest of your diet is balanced.
Daniel Feldman, a registered dietitian in New York, said in an interview with gynecologist Dr Jen Gunter: ‘If other aspects of your nutrition are on point (total calories, macronutrients, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and water) then there is no need to worry about HFCS.

‘That being said, since HFCS is a sweetener found in processed foods, and processed foods tend to be less nutrient dense and more calorically dense than unprocessed foods, foods with HFCS should generally constitute a small part of your diet (especially if your goal is weight loss).
‘But there is nothing inherently bad about HFCS.’
And when it comes to emulsifiers, Abbey Sharp, a myth-busting dietitian with more than 800,000 TikTok followers, said on TikTok these are typically only added to foods in small amounts and have not been well tested in humans.
Other experts also say the picture is more complex and have suggested the surge in young colorectal cancer cases could be due to a lack of fiber, which helps regulate digestion, and high amounts of processed and red meats.
The US also isn’t the only country experiencing a rise in young colorectal cancer cases. The UK, for example, is seeing a similar increase, with the disease rising 50 percent in people under 50 over the last 30 years.
However, the UK largely avoids high-fructose corn syrup in favor of cane sugar, so it’s unlikely the additive is responsible for those cases.
For both additives, Dr Abreu said: ‘I think it’s good to convey to parents that they should have their children minimally exposed to these things.
‘I’m a believer that colon cancer is preventable. Some of it has to start by transmitting this message to parents because we believe this is set in motion at a very early time.
‘It takes a lifetime of making good choices.’
Too much consumption of fast food, little fiber, and little exercise are all culprits in the rise of cancer among today’s young.
Then you will disrupt the gut flora balance by consuming foods which disrupt the microflora balance and irritate the gut lining, opening tight junctions which then allows things to enter the bloodstream which should not be there. Dysbiosis in the gut causes countless health issues.

How about I just eat what I like and take supplements for my fiber & vitamins ?
THE CANCER-BUSTING, FIBER-LOADED DIET
An ideal lunch would include two slices of whole wheat bread, which provides six grams of fiber, one cup of tossed salad for three grams of fiber, two ounces of roast beef, a medium apple, which contains about three grams of fiber, and a glass of lemonade.
And for dinner, doctors recommend one baked potato with skin for three grams of fiber, three ounces of baked chicken, half a cup of broccoli for three grams of fiber, and a large glass of water.
The average American diet comprises processed foods, red meat, fats, simple carbohydrates, and just 15 grams of fiber a day.
In early 2023, the American Cancer Society (ACS) reported that 20 percent of diagnoses in 2019 were in patients under 55, roughly double the rate in 1995.
With the threat of excess deaths due to CRC in younger adults looming closer by the year, both the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) and the Mult society Task Force on Colorectal Cancer, two organizations that offer preventive health guidelines, now advise that most Americans begin colorectal cancer screening at age 45—five years earlier than before—and continue to get screened regularly until age 75.
