The problem is, however, these sells are termed “activations” and Ubisoft has not been upfront about whether these include unique log-ins or actual purchases. Ubisoft is so paranoid about the game - understandably because it if fails so does the company - they are hiring agents to patrol the Internet for criticism. Once found, they are planning to sue players, while offering psychological assistances to any employees, half of which never made a game before, in need after being confronted with reasonable questions. Famous Japanese game creator Hideki Kamiya defended the game, saying “normal people” don't care, an interesting statement because it's also circulating Steam as a talking point, almost surely promoted by Ubisoft - “normal people don't get upset about this.” This is especially true because the Japanese game community has been the angriest, not western commentators who, frankly, have never even heard of Shintoism. Besides the race-baiting, controversial release dates, cultural insensitiveness, theft of shrine designs without permission, the making of a black samurai gay or an adulterer, the gameplay objectively is like decades old copy and paste low level garbage. The optics are so bad that even the Prime Minster of Japan commented, particularly because what he fears has already happened in the country due to clout chasing tourists: “I fear that allowing players to attack and destroy real-world locations in the game without permission could encourage similar behavior in real life. Shrine officials and local residents are also worried about this. Of course, freedom of expression must be respected, but acts that demean local cultures should be avoided.”Then there is Snow White, which by all objective measures makes ACS look like a well done masterpiece. This movie is so bad in every aspect, and the intention of Disney so blatantly disgusting, it will be a miracle if it doesn't get pulled from the theater within a week. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

No matter how much one fights against the machines or appears to be victorious, they keep coming, while judgment day is merely, at best, postponed. It cannot be averted. This should be obvious to see: whether by way of Ukraine, and their Jewish leaders' ‘big Israel' dreams, or by Israel itself, the war either runs directly into Russia and China or begins with Iran. The Prime Minster of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, reportedly almost died this last week in a drone strike, and his response was to blame “proxies of Iran,” just as recent assassination attempts on former President Trump were linked to Iran, and Trump himself said the country would be wiped off the face of the earth if they succeeded. Now leaked intelligence documents are exposing Israel's plan to begin bombing Iran at any moment, which would trigger conflict with Russia and China, just as Zelenskyy is provoking through Ukraine. Two fronts with the same enemy, despite how Democrats and Republicans seem to be at war themselves over which to support, while many are taking kickbacks from the theft of America's wealth. AIPAC has spent $100-million to fight back against progressive politicians, whose ideologies they support from illegal immigration to LGBTQ, while the same people pump out 50% of Democrat money. Republicans get 30% of their money from the same sources and take marching orders from the ADL on free speech. Everyone seems to know this outside of the U.S., and everyone seems to be to recognize that the U.S. in engaged in murder-suicide death pact with the devil. There is a reason Collin DePlancy drew his imfafous demons to look like Rabbis. As Bill Cooper said, “it's not the Jews,” and “Israel was created as the instrument to bring about the battle of Armageddon and fulfillment of prophecy.” It seems that Judgment Day is inevitable.  -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

Pesticides are killing plants, insects and animals that they're not aiming to control, the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology and the University of Sussex have joined international researchers to analyse 1,700 lab and field studies of 471 insecticides, herbicides and fungicides used in agriculture or commercially around the world. Their report identifies 'wide ranging negative effects' on a range of species and while the authors acknowledge that without pesticides global food production would likely collapse, they conclude that these chemicals are a major contributor to the biodiversity crisis. A tractor protest disrupted the Prime Minister's visit to a building site in Buckinghamshire. Farmers campaigning against the reintroduction of inheritance tax on farms took their tractors to the site near Milton Keynes yesterday, sounding their horns, Sir Keir Starmer then abandoned plans to make a speech.

Prime Minister Chris Luxon had to do some damage control after some controversial remarks were made by members of NZ First. This week, NZ First's Shane Jones yelled 'send the Mexicans home' - and Winston Peters told Green MPs they'd come with ideas 'foreign to our country' and suggested they show some gratitude to New Zealand. The Mexican ambassador has since raised concerns with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Peters says he looks forward to discussing it with him at Waitangi next week. NZ Herald political reporter Jamie Ensor says Luxon has to strike a difficult balance by condemning these comments but not explicitly criticising members of the coalition.

Today we'll be talking about a new drug hitting the streets known as “Pod K,” an announced crackdown on burning as pollution continues to choke Thailand, and a little later warnings of World War III from Singapore's Prime Minster.

If you didn't pick up on Christopher Luxon's State of the Nations speech yesterday, the Prime Minister is looking to grow the economy, because the country desperately needs economic growth. I am being a little facetious. Actually, I thought the Prime Ministers' performance yesterday was good – both the speech and afterwards during the press conference. Sure, he still stuck to his message like a self-help guru trying to manifest an outcome. But after taking a while to look comfortable or natural as a politician, yesterday he sounded more authentic, like he's found his groove. He's confident in the direction he's taking the country, and he's not trying to appeal to everyone. For a speech designed to set the tone for the year – he did a good job. Last year we saw the coalition government repeal and reform everything from education to water, and health to grey hound racing. While there is still a way to go with some of these, this year the Prime Minister has made it clear it's about dialing up the volume on creating competition, allowing more foreign investment, and pushing for government organisations to be more future focused. The Prime Minister also suggested we need to grow up and shake off our culture of saying ‘no' and start saying ‘yes' – to things like expanding the Port of Tauranga and more concerts at Eden Park. Luxon also used the speech to make some announcements - the creation of Invest NZ – an agency to attract foreign investment, major reforms to Crown Research Institutes, and the disestablishment of the Callaghan Innovation, which Judith Collins bluntly said at the post speech press conference “had had it's day” The new announcements are needed. National Party MPs have been sounding very well media trained recently - sticking to their messaging, avoiding answering questions with detail, you know the drill - and as a result they've been sounding a bit empty. When there is a lot of talking but nothing is really been said it's easy to lose interest. But what struck me yesterday was how well the Prime Minster was across questions thrown at him. Instead of reverting back to the big picture bland key messages he can often fall back on, he threw out details and examples. There will be push-back to some of his ideas, such as mining and gene technology. Making money is one thing, but many New Zealanders will still want the government to balance their pragmatic approach with consideration and respect for affected communities, the environment, and the Treaty. There is also a perhaps wishful sense from the Prime Minister that tax cuts, lower inflation and a falling OCR mean New Zealanders can move on from focusing on the cost of living. I doubt he'll be let off the hook that easily, rises in rent, rates, insurances, and other costs are still impacting household budgets. Making New Zealand a great place to live in years to come is important – love me some vision - but that doesn't mean we should lose sight of today. But hey, if the state of the nation speech is about getting out the message it's all about economic growth so we can all have better lives – then got it, loud and clear. Job done.

S&P Futures are displaying weakness this morning ahead of today's Non-Farms Payrolls report. DOCU, HPE, LULU & ULTA are moving higher after releasing earnings last night. Multiple FOMC officials are set to speak today ahead of the black out period the starts on Saturday. Autos stocks are higher while oil stocks are falling in the pre-market. In Europe stocks trading mostly higher Frances's President is expected to name a new Prime Minster shortly. Oil prices are falling as OPEC announced the extension of production curbs into a weakening demand picture.

A congressional resolution this week was passed with bipartisan support in declaration that Israel is not a racist or apartheid state. Only nine Democrats voted against, but this is likely due to their detest for religion. Israel's President Isaac Herzog was also in Congress this week to criticize Iran's nuclear program, despite Israel itself having hundreds of nuclear weapons, and to tell America that Israel is a purely democratic state. American perception is changing, however, with a Gallup poll showing a new high of 31% of citizens now siding with Palestinians. Israel, in reality, is a proxy of the United States and both countries have agreed to use and exploit Jewish identity for political and financial gains. Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minster of the country, once said that this identity and the history of Jewish suffering is what makes them morally superior to all others, a clear extension of the line that they are God's Chosen People. How different is this from the Master Race of Nazism? Such a belief creates a vacuum for horrendous crimes to be carried out, like Nazism, in the aims of a defined goal. Jewish comedian Roseanne pointed this out recently in an interview, yelling at Piers Morgan that just because Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Jewish doesn't mean he is a good guy. In fact, what Zelenskyy is doing is turning Ukraine into what he called “Big-Israel,” i.e. another U.S. proxy state to launder money, ship weapons, and wage war.Any criticism or acknowledgment of such facts conjures the accusation of anti-semitism, despite a semite being anyone who speaks a semitic language. In other words, Arabs are semites but a person who cannot speak Hebrew who converts to Judaism is not a semite. Likewise, the term Israel translates to God is a Warrior, a reference to the power of god manifesting throughout the entirety of Creation. The nation of Israel is not made of a singular people but of all mankind and nature. For MANKIND is God's CHOSEN PEOPLE. The Twelve Tribes are thus the signs of the animal wheel or Zodiac. The Holy land is furthermore a state of mind, or what Joseph Campbell called “a corner of the heart, or it is any environment that has been mythologically spiritualized.” The capital of perverse sexuality was Berlin in the 1920s but that has since shifted to Tel Aviv, Israel, where Jewish publications are proud of their support for all things sexually unique. Is it any wonder that Hollywood, Disney, and Black Rock, all with disproportionate Jewish influences, produce material and influence culture and business along these lines?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings-with-ryan-gable--5328407/support.

In this episode, Alex talks about the breakdown in Haiti after another Prime Minster has been replaced by Haiti's transitional presidential council (TPC). Alex talks about how the TPC, which is mainly driven by external influence, faces threats from unified gangs in Haiti that want a seat at the table of a new government. Alex also talks about the recent grounding of American airlines to Haiti after three airlines were fired on yesterday after trying to land in Haiti's capitol. Finally, Alex looks at Trump's recent cabinet picks, the Associated Press notes that “In the last few hours, Trump has announced John Ratcliffe as CIA Director, Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense and Kristi Noem as head of Homeland Security.” Alex hopes this is a joke, but knows that this is very well not one. 

Mauritians are Monday expecting results from Sunday's parliamentary elections with Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth seeking a second five-year term. His main challenger is Navin Ramgoolam of the opposition Alliance for Change. Davina Murden, a Mauritian independent political scientist based in Pretoria, South Africa, tells VOA's James Butty, voter turnout was higher than in 2019, but that a third consecutive term for Prime Minister Jugnauth might be a challenge since this was the only election he contested without his father.

From the U.S. lead negotiator on climate change, an inside account of the seven-year negotiation that culminated in the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015—and where the international climate effort needs to go from here. The 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change was one of the most difficult and hopeful achievements of the twenty-first century: 195 nations finally agreed, after 20 years of trying, to establish an ambitious, operational regime to address one of the greatest civilizational challenges of our time.  In Landing the Paris Climate Agreement: How It Happened, Why It Matters, and What Comes Next (MIT Press, 2024), Todd Stern, the chief US negotiator on climate change, provides an engaging account from inside the rooms where it happened: the full, charged, seven-year story of how the Paris Agreement came to be, following an arc from Copenhagen, to Durban, to the secret U.S.-China climate deal in 2014, to Paris itself. With a storyteller's gift for character, suspense, and detail, Stern crafts a high-stakes narrative that illuminates the strategy, policy, politics, and diplomacy that made Paris possible. Introducing readers to a vivid cast of characters, including Xie Zenhua, Vice Minister of China's National Development and Reform Commission, Bo Lidegaard, chief strategist for Denmark's Prime Minster, and Indian minister Jairam Ramesh, Stern, who worked alongside President Barack Obama and Secretaries of State John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, depicts the pitfalls and challenges overcome, the shifting alliances, the last-minute maneuvering, and the ultimate historic success. The book concludes with a final chapter that describes key developments since 2015 and the author's reflections on what needs to be done going forward to contain the climate threat. A unique peek behind the curtain of one of the most important international agreements of our time, Landing the Paris Climate Agreement is a vital and fascinating read for anyone who cares about the future of our one shared home. Todd Stern is a nonresident senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a nonresident distinguished fellow at the Asia Society, concentrating on climate change. He served from January 2009 until April 2016 as the Special Envoy for Climate Change at the Department of State, where he was President Barack Obama's chief climate negotiator.

From the U.S. lead negotiator on climate change, an inside account of the seven-year negotiation that culminated in the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015—and where the international climate effort needs to go from here. The 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change was one of the most difficult and hopeful achievements of the twenty-first century: 195 nations finally agreed, after 20 years of trying, to establish an ambitious, operational regime to address one of the greatest civilizational challenges of our time.  In Landing the Paris Climate Agreement: How It Happened, Why It Matters, and What Comes Next (MIT Press, 2024), Todd Stern, the chief US negotiator on climate change, provides an engaging account from inside the rooms where it happened: the full, charged, seven-year story of how the Paris Agreement came to be, following an arc from Copenhagen, to Durban, to the secret U.S.-China climate deal in 2014, to Paris itself. With a storyteller's gift for character, suspense, and detail, Stern crafts a high-stakes narrative that illuminates the strategy, policy, politics, and diplomacy that made Paris possible. Introducing readers to a vivid cast of characters, including Xie Zenhua, Vice Minister of China's National Development and Reform Commission, Bo Lidegaard, chief strategist for Denmark's Prime Minster, and Indian minister Jairam Ramesh, Stern, who worked alongside President Barack Obama and Secretaries of State John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, depicts the pitfalls and challenges overcome, the shifting alliances, the last-minute maneuvering, and the ultimate historic success.

As we move closer to what many believe will be WW3 it is becoming easier to compare reality to Hollywood films like the Terminator. No matter how much one fights against the machines or appears to be victorious, they keep coming, while judgment day is merely, at best, postponed. It cannot be averted. This should be obvious to see: whether by way of Ukraine, and their Jewish leaders' ‘big Israel' dreams, or by Israel itself, the war either runs directly into Russia and China or begins with Iran. The Prime Minster of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, reportedly almost died this last week in a drone strike, and his response was to blame “proxies of Iran,” just as recent assassination attempts on former President Trump were linked to Iran, and Trump himself said the country would be wiped off the face of the earth if they succeeded. Now leaked intelligence documents are exposing Israel's plan to begin bombing Iran at any moment, which would trigger conflict with Russia and China, just as Zelenskyy is provoking through Ukraine. Two fronts with the same enemy, despite how Democrats and Republicans seem to be at war themselves over which to support, while many are taking kickbacks from the theft of America's wealth. AIPAC has spent $100-million to fight back against progressive politicians, whose ideologies they support from illegal immigration to LGBTQ, while the same people pump out 50% of Democrat money. Republicans get 30% of their money from the same sources and take marching orders from the ADL on free speech. Everyone seems to know this outside of the U.S., and everyone seems to be to recognize that the U.S. in engaged in murder-suicide death pact with the devil. There is a reason Collin DePlancy drew his imfafous demons to look like Rabbis. As Bill Cooper said, “it's not the Jews,” and “Israel was created as the instrument to bring about the battle of Armageddon and fulfillment of prophecy.” It seems that Judgment Day is inevitable.  -FULL ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early & ad-free show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings-with-ryan-gable--5328407/support.

Sports with Rod 9-26-2024 …The Prime Minster of England Blocking Jaguars from Entering Country? …Living with a Hernia …Is Jim Harbaugh Lying? Probably

The question of the week was this: "If you ran for prime minister what would your first promise be in hopes of gaining support?"  Well, you had lots to say on that one and we'll get as many of your answers in as we can on today's episode. Also, the Random Ranter has his take on Donald Trump's debate performance; let's just say he, the Ranter, was not impressed!

It was never five percent, it was always spit balling.  Paul Goldsmith as Treaty Negotiations Minister is in a meeting with the seafood people, who are not happy about their lack of input into the government's foreshore plan to revert a court ruling back to the original intent of the law as passed in 2011.  Goldsmith, it was reported, said customary title will drop to 5 percent. 1News fell over themselves breathlessly reporting this as some sort of scandal on Sunday.  Come Monday in the Prime Minister's post-cabinet session, they try and get more detail. The Prime Minister quite clearly says the reason the government are doing what they are doing is because the court has overreached and what the government of the day intended has been distorted. An amendment of section 58 is how they are going to fix this.  The original law was simple. If you can prove you have had uninterrupted access to foreshore since 1840 you got a case. If you can't, you haven't.  Groups who didn't like the law or the government went to court. The court being activist got overly involved and we've ended up where we have.  All of the government, as the Prime Minster was at pains to tell the assembled press, wanted to do is make the law the law.  Why? Because they are the government and that's what governments do.  As far as I'm aware as a consumer of news, that bit wasn't reported yesterday by some media. I note both state-funded were still banging on about Goldsmith and his 5 percent comment.  The point they are missing, and I suspect deliberately, is courts don't make the law, governments do.  If you want to mark Goldsmith down a bit, maybe he shouldn't free wheel with numbers. Given if you apply some brain power to it, no one knows what the actual number by way of a percentage will be when it comes to access.  But it wasn't a scandal and it wasn't a gotcha moment.  It was a passing comment in a meeting about the intent of the government of the day and what they were doing to address what they see as an activist court that had distorted intent around an increasingly fractious subject.  This would be another example of an activist media taking the side of an activist court and trying to drum up scandal around a government they don't like on a law they like even less.  And if you apply logic and follow it as I have, they're failing.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sir John Key says he doesn't support the Government's controversial Treaty Principles Bill. It comes after calls from the former Prime Minster for the temperature to be turned down on race relations. The bill, championed by ACT, seeks to formally define the principals of the Treaty of Waitangi, but has been met with strong opposition. Key says not only has the bill 'wound people up' but he also thinks it wouldn't work. "I actually think philosophically it's bad policy. I'll tell you why I think it's bad - if you write down the principles, if you think they're going to stay like that, you're a dreamer."

Och aye the noo, it's Scottish stereotype Who! Terror of the Zygons, written by an actual Scot, really packs them in: bagpipes, kilts, haggis, Nessie, North Sea oil, and monsters who look like they've eaten too many deep-fried Mars bars. It's stylish, it's suggestive, but does it hold up against 21st century Zygon yarns? Did we really have to lose a companion? Did the Doctor leave the TARDIS open to Sutekh attack?

From centralized power in the PMO, to what will happen to the Senate, to the use of the flag to the Middle East and everything in between. There's a lot of variety from all regions of the country and from overseas as well. And then the Random Ranter gets very worried about AI.

The latest round of billion dollars promises from the Trudeau government is directed at improving Canada's defence system, especially in Canada's arctic. Helping us understand what is planned and whether it's adequate or even necessary is one of the country's leading defence analysts and someone who has written and lectured often on Canada's arctic policy as it relates to defence. He's Professor Rob Huebert from the University of Calgary.

The Irish are awake, and they are done with progressive ideology.  They are done with forced immigration, they are done with the attacks on their culture and their thoughts, but most of all they are done with people like former Prime Minister Leo Varadkar.  They are fed with the people  like Leo who wants to control what they eat, how they think, what they say, where they live, how they live and what they say.  Mike Parrott reveals why Leo Varadkar resigned as Prime Minster and how the Irish people are reclaiming their country.  These actions are needed through out the world and especially in the United States.  Mike reveals this and more on this episode of Parrott Talk.

Live from STUDIO G- in the heart of America- I'm STEVE GRUBER- saying the things you wish you could -every day- Fighting for you from the Foxhole of Freedom and defending this great nation— AND looking forward to a new year! This is THE STEVE GRUBER SHOW!   Here are 3 big things you need to know right now—   Number One— The college football national championship showdown was the main event in Houston Texas last night with the University of Michigan and University of Washington both coming in undefeated with 14-0 records—   Number Two— The Epstein files are coming out now—and the people getting hit is BIG—in fact one of the victims says she actually got out with video's of Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew and Billionaire Richard Branson having sex with underage girls—   Number Three-and the names and the accusations—and the problems it is creating for the elites caught in the web—and the issues with underaged girls being taken across international borders for sexual exploitation and abuse—   BUT I decided I wanted to focus on the hard shift right around the world right now that is rejecting the globalist agenda of George Soros, Bill Gates, the Davos crows—plus the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization among others—   We are reaching a breaking point—and when I say we—I mean the people of the developed world—the people that are the recipients of the success of Western Civilization—   Because it is the citizens of the world—of the so-called Free Countries that are now rejecting across the board—the Globalist cabal—that are rejecting the climate change fraud—that are rejecting the idea of “you will own nothing and you will be happy…”   It began in countries like Italy—when voters there elected a conservative Giorgia Meloni—who emulated the idea of national sovereignty—and echoed the rigid rejection of efforts like the United Nations Agenda 2030—   Nations like Poland and Hungary have steadfastly rejected the invasion of their nations by hoardes of illegal aliens—trying to force their way in—they did not bend to the demands of the European Union—and so far have stood strong—   So, in Italy, we saw Meloni claim the Prime Minster's job in Rome in October of 2022—and that was a huge win for the citizens of the world—clawing back against the outrageous attacks on their freedom—   Then other big swings came—Geert Vilders right wing party shocked the world—winning more seats that any other party during Dutch elections in November of last year—a clear rejection of globalist policies—the most notable being attacks on farms, farmers and farming in general—which is one of the most egregious assaults on personal freedom and a nations independence—   In Argentina— Javier Milei, the first Libertarian ever elected to lead that nation also captured a massive victory that left the globalists shell-shocked and looking to regain their footing—   The failed socialist policies had left Argentina with massive inflation, unemployment and a bloated out of control government that was on the road to ruin—in fact it looked like it could join its south American neighbor Venezuela on the biggest failures of the last century list—   But Milei—took control of the government just weeks ago and began cutting one government agency after another—calling them wasteful—and insulting to the working people of his country—   And then there were the protests in November and December in Spain when hundreds of thousands of its citizens protested for weeks—while the global media ignored the masses—who were rejecting the socialist government and its dirty deal with a group of separatists that tried to destroy the country over the past few years—   You probably didn't see much about that either—because the people who control the global flow of information—didn't want you to see it—   Thank God for Elon Musk and his $44 Billion dollar purchase of Twitter—that he has now rebranded as X—because he is allowing the free flow of information and is giving the proverbial middle finger to the censors both in the government and their willing henchmen in media—and especially in other social media giants like Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok—   Elon Musk, who calls himself a Free Speech absolutist—has allowed us to see—what we otherwise would have been blocked from ever knowing about—   I mean, I can tell you this—America, is already the most censored news nation on the planet—I'm serious, when I travelled to New Zealand or South Africa—I was floored by the amount of news from around the world—that we were simply never getting here at home—   When socialists were losing—or people were fighting back to save their countries—much like millions of us are trying to do here in the United States right now—we never heard a peep about it—   So, that brings me to what I think is the biggest story NOT being told here right now—and that is the uprising of German farmers—that is now in its 7th day—   It is peaceful—well except for the part where the farmers have dumped thousands of tons of manure in the streets and in front of government buildings—   The farmers—like their counterparts in the Netherlands are not having it—BUT this is bigger—because the German government appeared to back down on eliminating diesel subsidies while raising taxes on these farmers—and guess what?   It wasn't good enough, not only are the farmers continuing their protests blocking the highways and streets of the Fatherland—they are expanding the protests—and are now being joined by Polish farmers and Dutch farmers—   It seems the people in the Ivory towers who want to pontificate about how best to run the world—and try to dictate to the people who actually grow the food they eat—are getting a lesson on what really happens when you piss off the people—   And guess what the people are winning—and Klaus Schwaub and the globalist pigs are in a panic—I mean what the hell do you do when massive 8-wheel drive 50 ton tractors are blocking the road and refusing to bow to your globalist agenda?   It seems the Germans, the Dutch, the Poles and soon a whole lot more people are going to rise up and say no—I know because the truckers all across Europe are now joining ranks with the farmers—and it is truly something to behold—   Eva Vlardingbroek—has been following the protests in the Netherlands—and now she is with the German farmers—   And as the days are dragging on—the steadfastness of the farmers is clear—these are not some weak willed people—these are salt of the earth people—and they are not going away until they get everything they are demanding—   And for the farmers of the world—its not only about feeding the planet—its about protecting their families and carrying on the tradition and the heritage of who they are—   And this will come to America—if they keep pushing us— American farmers will do the same thing from New Jersey to Montana and from California to Florida—   You see, we are sick of the meddling globalist agenda—the attacks on appliances, the open border, the economy—and frankly we are not going to just sit here and keep taking it—   The farmers in Germany and the Grass Roots in Italy, Holland, Argentina and all over the world is giving people the courage to say—we have had it—   And look for America to keep the streak going and throw out the socialists come November—   Not only are we taking our country back—we are beginning to see that freedom is taking root all over again—all over the world—   God Bless the German farmers!
