BIDEN WATCH: 6.18.22 - CRISIS - CRISIS - CRISIS

More Major Disasters Hit U.S. Food Production � Are You Prepared For What Comes Next?- by Michael Snyder - http://endoftheamericandream.com/more-major-disasters-hit-u-s-food-production-are-you-prepared-for-what-comes-next/ The hits just keep on coming. Over the past few months, I have carefully documented the rapidly growing global food crisis, and I have explained that even here in the UnitedStates food production is going to be way below original expectations this year. Unfortunately, most of the population still doesn�t grasp what is happening. Most people simply assume that everything will turn out okay somehow. Meanwhile, farmers are tellingus as loudly as they can that everything will most definitely not be okay. In my entire lifetime, I have never seen America�s farmers this alarmed about what is ahead. And of course everything that we are currently witnessing in the U.S. and around the globeis setting the stage for the sort of historic famines that I have been relentlessly warning my readers about. I wish that I knew a way to get through to the millions upon millions of apathetic people out there that don�t seem to care that a major food crisisis coming, because the suffering that we are going to witness all over the world will be off the charts. Many seem to believe that we are going to be immune from the coming shortages because we live in the United States. Unfortunately, food production in the U.S. continues to be hit by one major disaster after another. This week, a historic June heat wave absolutely baked the center of thecountry� On Monday night into Tuesday, 125 million people � a third of the population � were under heat alerts across much of the central and eastern states. Cities such as Tulsa, Memphis, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Raleigh and Charlotte were all under the heat warnings. Chicago residents on Monday fled to their basements and nearby shelters when a surprise tornado ripped through the city as it experienced 100F weather for the first time ina decade. Needless to say, this sort of weather was not welcomed by farmers in our agricultural heartland. Records were shattered all over the nation, and I was particularly surprised to see a high temperature of 108 degrees in North Platte, Nebraska� The mercury in North Platte, Nebraska, hit 108F, breaking the record set in 1952; St Louis�s record of 98 degrees from the same year was also broken on Monday, with temperaturesreaching 100 degrees. Charlotte, North Carolina, hit 98 degrees and Nashville, Tennessee, was at 97F � tying the previous record set in 2016. �To have an excessive heat warning this early in the year is kind of unusual,� Mike Johnson, a meteorologist with the Memphis NWS, told CNN. Yes, what we are witnessing is definitely unusual. And summer hasn�t even started yet. It is being reported that the extreme heat was responsible for �at least 2,000 cattle deaths� in Kansas alone� The deaths add pain to the U.S. cattle industry as producers have reduced herds due to drought and grappled with feed costs that climbed as Russia�s invasion of Ukraine tightenedglobal grain supplies. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment knew of at least 2,000 cattle deaths due to high temperatures and humidity as of Tuesday, spokesperson Matthew Lara said. Thetoll represents facilities that contacted the agency for help disposing of carcasses, he said. Another source is reporting that the true death toll in Kansas is actually somewhere around 10,000� The current heat wave blazing through Kansas feedlots has killed an estimated 10,000 head of fat cattle. Final death numbers continue to come in, but that early estimate was shared with DTN by livestock experts, who put the geographical center point for those deaths at Ulysses,Kansas. Needless to say, cattle have been dying in other states as well, and hopefully I will be able to find some of those numbers for you all. Meanwhile, Yellowstone National Park and surrounding areas have just been hit by historic flooding that was so bad that it is being called a �thousand-year event�� Yellowstone National Park could be closed �indefinitely� as devastating flooding continues to ravage the towns, roads, and bridges along the Yellowstone River. Park officials characterized the severe flooding tearing through the region as a once in a �thousand-year event,� that could alter the course of the Yellowstone river andsurrounding landscapes forever. Officials say that the river�s volume is flowing 20,000 cubic feet per second faster than the previous record measured in the 90s. It would be difficult to overstate the devastation that this flooding caused. For many ranchers and farmers, things will never be the same after this. On top of everything else, another �mysterious fire� just happened. This time, it was a pizza plant in Wisconsin that totally burned to the ground� More than 70 firefighters from almost two dozen departments in four counties battled a blaze at a pizza plant on Monday in eastern Portage County. The American Red Cross reported that its volunteers provided food and water for firefighters battling a five-alarm fire at the Festive Foods pizza plant at 7811 Portage CountyD in the town of Belmont, near the Portage-Waupaca County line. As I have detailed previously, we have seen this sort of thing happen over and over again in recent months. In many of these cases, mysterious fires erupt very suddenly and grow to immense size even if firefighters are able to respond very rapidly. And despite the best efforts of the firefighters, many of these food production facilities end up being completely destroyed. Authorities are assuring us that all of these incidents are just �accidents�, and you can believe that if you want. But to me it definitely appears that something very strange is happening.

Food Processing Plant West of Waupaca County in Wisconsin We can debate why this is happening until we are blue in the face. But what everyone should be able to agree on is that we should all be getting prepared for what is ahead. Are you ready for much higher food prices and widespread shortages? The head of the UN World Food Program has warned that we are heading into the worst global food crisis since World War II. By the time it is all said and done, I believe that what we will experience will be much worse than that. So I would encourage you to stock up while you still can, because the clock is certainly ticking. --------------------- A Preview of President Joe Biden's Upcoming Disastrous Visit To Israel � Yoni Ben Menachem - https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=5423 The White House has officially announced that President Joe Biden will visit Israel and the Palestinian Authority on July 13 and 14, 2022. On Tuesday, June 14, Hussein al-Sheikh--a senior PLO official and confidant of P.A. chairman Mahmoud Abbas--met with the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near EasternAffairs Barbara Leaf, who came to Israel to lay the groundwork for the president's visit. During the visit, Biden will be hosted by Abbas in Bethlehem, where the chairman hosted former President Donald Trump during his term in office. Biden is also expected tovisit eastern Jerusalem for the first time. There, perhaps at the Makassed Hospital, he is expected to announce the renewal of U.S. financial aid to eastern Jerusalem's hospital network, amounting to tens of millions of dollars. The Biden administration is concerned about the 87-year-old Abbas' state of health and fears that his exit from the political stage will undermine the P.A.'s hold on the WestBank, spark a bloody succession battle and boost the status of Hamas. U.S. policymakers also fear that, even before Biden visits Israel next month, Abbas will take measures to further complicate the political situation while Israel's governingcoalition is on the verge of collapse. Last week, Abbas warned U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and French President Emmanuel Macron that the Palestinian leadership is again seriously considering the implementationof the PLO Central Council's decision to suspend recognition of and security coordination with Israel in light of "the Israeli escalation in Jerusalem and the Temple Mount" that Abbas claims took place on Jerusalem Day this year. Biden hastened to dispatch special envoy Hady Amr and then Leaf to Ramallah, where they met with Abbas. In her parley with the P.A. chairman, Leaf emphasized the administration's commitment to the two-state solution. Abbas, for his part, again threatened to suspend relationsand security coordination with Israel and demanded that the administration fulfill its promises to reopen the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem and the PLO office in Washington and delist the PLO as a terror organization. Last week, the Biden administration announced bureaucratic changes in the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem meant to send Abbas a reassuring message that the administration is notwalking back its promise to reopen the Jerusalem consulate. Unfortunately, reopening the consulate would symbolize de facto U.S. recognition of eastern Jerusalem as the capital of a future Palestinian state and effectively cancel Trump's recognition of unitedJerusalem as Israel's capital. The administration has also decided to restore the separation between the Office of Palestinian Affairs and the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem, with the former reporting directlyto the State Department in Washington instead of Ambassador to Israel Thomas Nides. This diplomatic entity's official name has been changed from the "Palestinian Affairs Unit" and will continue to be headed by senior diplomat George Noll. It will take ordersdirectly from the State Department's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs. This is a temporary palliative measure in response to Palestinian pressure and Abbas' threats. According to U.S. sources, the office will speed the transfer of diplomaticmessages between the Biden administration and the P.A. and bolster their relationship. The Biden administration updated Israel on its latest moves. Israel has not expressed opposition, even though the measure is clearly an interim stage toward reopening theU.S. consulate in Jerusalem, which will deal with the affairs of "Palestine." President Biden appears to be attempting a delicate balancing act. On the one hand, he seeks to placate Abbas and move toward reopening the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem. Onthe other hand, he wants to avoid a diplomatic confrontation with the tottering Bennett-Lapid government. The administration does not want to give Israeli right-wing parties ammunition to accuse the Bennett government of caving to U.S. pressure by agreeingto the opening of the consulate. The Biden administration will do everything possible to prevent the Likud Party from returning to power. Its worst nightmare is seeing Benjamin Netanyahu once again take officeas Israel's prime minister. The U.S. believes that the reassurances given to Abbas that it is committed to the two-state solution and to reopening the consulate in Jerusalem should be enough to calmthe Palestinian leader for the time being. In a State Department briefing on Tuesday, June 14, Spokesperson Ned Price would not give a timeframe for reopening the consulate, but underlined the administration's intentionto do so. He was asked, "Is there a timeframe? Are we getting closer to sort of a timeframe for reopening the consulate?" "There's no timeframe I can provide you other than to reiterate what I just said, that we remain committed to reopening the consulate in Jerusalem," Price replied. "It ispart and parcel of our effort to reengage with the Palestinian Authority, the Palestinian people. You have to remember that when we took office in January of last year, there had been almost a complete rupture, a complete severance between the United Statesgovernment and the Palestinian Authority and, in some ways, the Palestinian people." Israel made a mistake by not objecting to the administration's intermediate measure of establishing a separate Office of Palestinian Affairs. Unfortunately, President Bidenis stubborn and will not give up on reopening the consulate. Israel needs to show a consistent stance on the issue, which is vital to preserving Trump's historic recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The move by the Bidenadministration marks the beginning of the erosion of that recognition. ------------------------------------------- Melting Down and Running Out of Time - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2022/06/12/melting-down-and-running-out-of-time-by-daymond-duck/ On June 1, 2022, Anne Graham Lotz, Billy Graham’s daughter, wrote, “Our beloved nation is melting down. The jettisoning of traditional Judeo-Christian values has seemed toerupt at warp speed. Lying, corruption, deception, betrayal, and greed are becoming the norm. Fear, rage, lawlessness, murder, suicides, and drug and alcohol abuse seem out of control. The signs the Bible gives which characterize the last generation of humanhistory are warning indicators. Could it be our world is coming under God’s final judgment? If so, then the time before Jesus returns for His followers is running out.” Here is a link to the entire article: https://harbingersdaily.com/preach-stand-the-time-before-jesus-returns-for-his-followers-is-running-out/ Here are more reports on things that are taking place: One, concerning shortages: on May 25, 2022, Bloomberg reportedthat fuel shortages, drought, and heatwaves in Asia, Europe, and the U.S. could cause rolling blackouts (no electricity) in less than one month. According to Bloomberg, commodity disruptions, the war in Ukraine, and Biden’s failed effort to transition away from fossil fuels are going to cause electric power systemsto fail (putting one billion people at risk worldwide and likely including U.S. citizens in six states from California to the Great Lakes). Two, concerning food and fuel shortages: on June 2, 2022, BillWilson (Senior Analyst for Koenig’s Eye View) wrote, “According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a family of four on a thrifty food plan paid $917 for groceries in May, up about 65 percent from a year ago. Gasoline prices have jumped over 53 percent,from $2.46 a gallon when Biden first took office, to $4.62 a gallon on Monday. The American Automobile Association asks on its website, “Is this the calm before the storm?” The answer is a loudyes.” -------------------------- In part, Wilson blamed: •Biden’s cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline and exploration and leases on federal lands. •Biden’s belief that higher fuel prices are needed to cause Americans to transition from fossil fuels to green energy. •Poor decisions by the Chair of Biden’s Council of Economic Advisors and his Sec. of the Treasury. More: On June 2, 2022, it was reported that Jamie Dimon, CEO ofJP Morgan Chase, said an economic hurricane is coming our way and “you better brace yourself.” Dimon said his company doesn’t know whether this will be a weak or a strong hurricane, but his company is preparing for “bad outcomes.” (Note:On June 6, 2022, physician and writer Dr. Brian Joondeph predicted that it will be a category 5 hurricane.) More: On June 3, 2022, Mike Adams (Brighteon) predicted that foodshortages in the U.S. will lead to food riots resulting in “martial law in America before the mid-term election.” More: Adams is not the only prophecy teacher that believes Bidenmay use food shortages, electrical shortages, or some other crisis to cancel the mid-term elections so the Democrats won’t be voted out of office. More: On June 6, 2022, it was reported that: •The price of gasoline has risen 27 out of the last 28 days. •The sale of half-gallon containers of milk has increased, and the sale of gallon containers of milk has decreased because rising food prices are forcing people to buy less. •Sales at dollar stores and dollar tree are increasing because people can no longer afford the better merchandise at other stores. My opinion: We are witnessing the result of Biden’s “Build BackBetter” plan (weaken America to entice citizens to accept the NWO — world government). Three, on June 6, 2022, Pres. Biden declared a national energyemergency for the next 24 months (unless it is canceled first). Biden said, “Multiple factors are threatening the ability of the United States to provide sufficient electricity generation to serve expected customer demand.” Two “multiple factors” listed in his declaration are Russia and climate change. Biden didn’t mention his cancellation of the Keystone pipeline and the oil leases on federal lands. My opinion: America’s energy crisis is not being caused by Russiaor climate change. America is deliberately being weakened from within. This is part of the WEF “Great Reset” (a transition from the old normal to the New World Order by 2030 or sooner). It is one of many scare tactics. I believe Americans will soon be told: •That we can’t solve our problems by ourselves. •That our problems (the inflation, supply-chain crisis, and pandemic they created) are global, and they require a global solution (a world government). From a Biblical perspective, I believe: •That our created problems may be triggering the birth pains. •That our created problems signify that we are approaching the Rapture. Four, concerning world government: on June 6, 2022, it was reportedthat Wayne Allen Root (Radio host, writer, and Libertarian Party candidate for Pres. of the U.S. in 2008) said he believes the U.S. economy is being destroyed so fast that the U.S. will not make it to the 2024 elections (and he is not even sure the U.S. willmake it to this November’s mid-term elections). Concerning why he believes that way, Root listed what some of the richest men in America are saying, rising interest rates, surging inflation, declining home sales, explodinggasoline and food prices, looming food shortages, surging violence, surging crime, wide-open borders, the rush to disarm U.S. citizens, and more. We now have one of America’s former Presidents (a Republican, Trump) and a former candidate for President (a Libertarian, Root) saying America may decline and collapse beforethe 2024 elections, and this is in addition to Anne Graham-Lotz’s statement that “Our beloved nation is melting down.” My opinion: If the U.S. economy is destroyed before 2024, the global economy will go down with it. My opinion: I have also long believed that the Rider on the Black Horse in Rev. 6:5-6 is hyperinflation and a global economic collapse and that rider will be released by Jesusearly in the Tribulation Period. My opinion: I agree with those that believe the people in Washington are too intelligent to get America in this mess, so it must be deliberate. I think they are deliberately transitioning to the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, and that is not good for America. Time will tell, but 2024 is drawing near, and multitudes could know soon. Five, concerning world government: on June 6, 2022, Mexico’s Pres.Obrador suggested that the U.S. and Mexico should erase their border and merge the two nations, and in case that sounds ridiculous, he announced that he will meet with Pres. Biden at the White House next month to discuss this very issue. It seems incredible that any President of the U.S. would even discuss a merger with Mexico, but then, Biden stopped construction on the border wall and said he will make theNWO happen. The NWO is about a borderless world (world government). Six, concerning the Covid-19 pandemic, on June 3, 2022, the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released their data on adverse reactions to Covid-19 vaccinations from Dec. 14, 2020, to May 27, 2022. The U.S. government-funded CDC data shows that in the U.S.: •586 million vaccinations were administered (346 million were Pfizer, 221 million were Moderna, and 19 million were Johnson & Johnson). •825,454 people had an adverse reaction. •13,150 people died (16% died within 24 hours; 20% died within 48 hours). •83,454 people had a serious reaction. Readers should be aware that only a small fraction of the adverse reactions get reported to the CDC (put another way, the facts are much worse than the CDC numbers show, andthis is allowed because the CDC is concerned that more accurate numbers would cause more people to refuse to be vaccinated). Also, these numbers are just for the U.S. (they do not include data from other nations). Seven, concerning the Days of Noah (wickedness): on June 8, 2022,it was reported that a man with a weapon and burglary tools that said he wanted to kill Judge Richard Kavanaugh was detained outside the Judge’s home. One problem with evil in America is that one of the main political parties is okay with wickedness and violence by some people (Antifa, Black Lives Matter, abortion demonstrators,etc.), but they accuse and refuse to tolerate violence or the accusation of violence and wickedness from others (Jan. 6 demonstrators, some Trump officials, etc.). They refuse to prosecute some groups and deny Constitutional protections to other groups. If these corrupt officials don’t correct this two-tiered legal system, God will eventually deal with it. Finally, are you Rapture Ready? If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believethat Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this. ---------------------- Tokenism Now Runs Washington � Todd Strandberg - https://www.raptureready.com/category/nearing-midnight/ Tokenism: The practice of making only a perfunctory or symbolic effort to do a particular thing, especially by recruiting a small number of people from underrepresented groupsin order to give the appearance of sexual or racial equality. When the Biden Administration took over from the Trump administration, dozens of African Americans were hired. A year and a half later, 21 of them quit their jobs becausethey were never given anything to do. They were token employees whose only job was to sit there and be black. In most career fields, a company or organization will seek out people who are best qualified for a job. Time and time again, Biden has publicly stated he is going to hirea woman or minority for a position. If you are a white male and very qualified for a job, you are more likely to be passed over by someone who is less skilled than you. President Biden nominated Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to become the 116th Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court because he said he was going to select a blackwoman. Jackson was a bit shaky as she spoke before the Senate. Since it was a race and gender matter, the Senate had no real options in judging if she was actually qualified for the job. Their duty was to vote for another token milestone. Pete Buttigieg was likely selected to be Secretary of Transportation because he is a homosexual. My problem with him is that he chose to take 12 weeks of paid parental leaveright in the middle of a crippling supply-chain crisis. Cabinet secretaries do not qualify for paid parental leave. President Biden allowed Buttigieg to take time off obviously because it was the politically correct thing to do. We now have a new press secretary at the White House. Karine Jean-Pierre clearly got the job because of tokenism. She is black, an immigrant, and a lesbian. Karine has verypoor communication skills. When speaking to the press about her own bio, she read from a card. When the press asks her questions, she turns to pre-selected statements that often barely match the question. The strangest moment in Jean-Pierre�s tenure came when the boy band BTS appeared at the podium with her. Only one member of the band spoke English, and he said, �Hi, we�reBTS, and it is a great honor to be invited to the White House today to discuss the important issues of anti-Asian hate crimes, Asian inclusion and diversity.� I think it�s incredibly insulting to Asian-Americans to have a boy band represent the issue of hate crime. Ten years from now, the vast majority of people won�t even knowwho BTS was. If anti-Asian hate crimes are resolved, it won�t be because of the 2022 BTS/White House summit. It�s too bad Jeffrey Dahmer was killed by one of his cellmates. He would make a great member of the Biden administration. Joe could give Jeffery a presidential pardon andappoint him to a cabinet position. He would be the first gay serial killer and cannibal in history. Consumer price inflation is currently at 8.3% � the metric�s highest level in four decades. Gas prices are soaring past $4.75 per gallon � with no end in sight. Yet TreasurySecretary Janet Yellen found time to raise the rainbow flag. �For the first time in our history, Treasury is displaying the Pride Flag to express our solidarity with LGBTQ+ Americans during Pride Month,� Yellen announced last week,adding that her department �remains committed to diversity, equity, and equal opportunity for all.� There is nothing positive about diversity. Many people claim that America�s racial diversity makes our nation great. We fault a civil war over race. America is great despiteits racial diversity. The Indian subcontinent has all types of religious diversity, and millions of people have died from wars over religion. Tokenism really shows that our leaders don�t care at all about the difference that divides us. To have the President putting people into various offices based on their sexuality,race or gender shows that he doesn�t think they are capable of achieving ranks based on their own skills. Once white males realize that they are being unfairly discriminated against by tokenism, they will rebel, and we�re back to the days of Jim Crow. One of the glorious things about heaven is that there is no diversity. We will all be primarily seen as children of God. �After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne andbefore the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, �Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'� (Revelation 7:9-10 ESV). -------------------------- No-petro Joe - Bill Wilson � www.dailyjot.com I so do appreciate Joe Biden�s energy policy. He has single-handedly raised the cost of living for everything, beginning with his zero tolerance for oil exploration and gasolineproduction. He is an absolute genius. I have been trying to justify having an electric car for years. But every time I sit down to calculate whether the extra cost can be recouped over the lifetime of the car compared with a gasoline-powered car, gasolinecan�t be beat. Thanks to No-petro Joe, someday, if the price of gasoline rises enough, it just might pay to buy that electric car. But wait, outside the cities there is no recharging infrastructure. And what about the $20,000 it takes to replace one of thosebatteries after 100,000 miles? Hmmm. I compared the cost recovery on a 2022 Ford Escape Hybrid getting 41 miles to the gallon with my 15 mile per gallon Ford F-150 driving 1,500 miles per month. According toEdmunds.com Car Cost vs Mileage Calculator, it would take 174 months (14.5 years) at $2.79 cents a gallon before I could really begin saving money on my Hybrid purchase. Now, thanks to No-petro Joe�s $5 a gallon gas it will only take 8 years to begin savingmoney. Golly, I hope that Ford Escape can last that long. But by the 6-year mark, my 100,000 mile warranty on the battery will have expired and I would have to pay another $15,000 to $20,000 to replace it. So I�m really hoping No-petro Joe can get that gasolineprice up around $40 a gallon so it will only take me a year to begin saving money. Remember on May 24 during a press conference in Japan, No-Petro Joe made it clear: �[When] it comes to the gas prices, we�re going through an incredible transition that istaking place that, God willing, when it�s over, we�ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.� You go, Joe and take Brandon with you. I don�t really know how we will all be stronger with this no-drill,no-produce oil and gas policy, since the cost of food will be so high that none of us can eat. Not much nutritional value in boiling old shoes and dandelions into a stew. School meals will skyrocket and no doubt property taxes will have to be raised. Well,maybe No-petro Joe will bail us out of the coming food and fuel lockdown with another $1,500 check. In March, No-Petro Joe gave a speech at the White House on his plan to reduce the cost of gas. He said, �Under my plan, which is before the Congress now, we can take advantageof the next generation of electric vehicles, that a typical driver will save about $80 a month from not having to pay gas at the pump.� Makes sense. I just can�t wait to save money on gas through my electric car that is subsidized by the government. I�m sohappy that I�ll be saving gas money that I won�t mind paying higher prices for everything else, including the purchase price of my new electric car, because I�m doing my part as a citizen for the government to control the weather. I�m so happy, so, so happy.Proverbs 14:7 says, �Walk away from the presence of a foolish man; you will gain no knowledge from his speech.� Gotta say it. No-petro Joe�stupidocrisy. -------------------------------
