BEAST MODE: Colorado Begins Mark Of The Beast ‘Proving Grounds’ As Amazon One Allows Payments With Your Palm At 11 Whole Foods Locations

Whole Foods Markets in the greater Denver area is now taking cashless palm payments through Amazon One at 11 of their store locations. Remind you of anything?

My daughter Megan, who is expecting and on our prayer list, sent me a text message with some crazy photos late last night about her incredible experience at their local Whole Foods store in Colorado. She went to check out and noticed, for the first time, that her Whole Foods was now using Amazon One for payments, and one of the options offered to her was to make a palm payment. Today it’s a payment through the front of your hand, and very soon it will be a payment through the back of your right hand or forehead. Guaranteed. We first reported that this was coming back on September 6, 2019. It’s here.

“And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16,17 (KJB)

If you’re lost and reading this, you chuckle and wonder what all the fuss is about. To you, technology is a good thing, and the faster it gets here the easier and more comfortable your life will be. But to the born again Bible believer, we are watching the ongoing fulfilling of Bible prophecy in real-time, like the scene from ‘The Matrix’ where Neo is so in tune he’s watching the flurry of bullets coming at him as if in slow-motion. That’s you if you’re saved and believing The Book. You’ve been waiting for it, watching for it, and now that it’s arriving none of this is any surprise at all. Did you know that the word ‘amazon’ refers to the daughters of Ares, the god of war in Greek mythology? They lived in the region of modern-day Ukraine, and no, I’m not making this up. So you have Amazon, the world’s largest online retailer, their new payment system is called ‘One’, as in One World, and you pay with the palm of your hand. Got it.

Yep, I see it. Do you?

Illegal immigrant kids with tuberculosis infections released into 44 states

The government is releasing thousands of illegal immigrant children with latent tuberculosis infections into American communities without assurances of treatment.

Nearly 2,500 children with latent infections were released into 44 states over the past year, according to a court-ordered report on how the Health and Human Services Department is treating the children.

About 126,000 total were released, indicating an infection rate of 1 in 50 migrant children.

The government says it can’t treat the children because they are in custody for a short time and treatment requires three to nine months. HHS releases infected children to sponsors and notifies local health authorities in the hope that they can arrange for treatment before the latent infection becomes active.

Those hopes are often dashed.

Local health officials say the notifications are infrequent and the child has often already arrived when they are told about a case in their jurisdiction.

“We do not know how often the sponsors follow through on treatment,” the Virginia Department of Health told The Washington Times in a statement. “By the time outreach takes place, the child has sometimes moved to another area or state.”

FrankenMeats are here: Soybeans are being genetically engineered to grow pig protein

A company out of the UK – Moolec – has developed a new line of soybeans called Piggy Sooy. These new soybeans are genetically engineered to produce pig proteins. The new soybean crops will be harvested traditionally and will be incorporated into “plant-based meats” and other substitute meat products. Researchers are warning about the genetic and generational consequences of these experimental gene edits.

Soybeans and other common crops to be replaced with genetically engineered meat substitute crops

Moolec is poised to profit from the latest CRISPR-Cas gene-editing experiment that effectively splices conventional soya to create a soybean with 26.6 percent animal protein. Due to the gene edits, the interior portion of this new soybean hybrid presents a rosy flesh color. The company claims that these new hybrids will provide similar taste, texture, and nutritional value as animal meat. The company is currently working on a pea plant that produces cow protein. The exact animal genes used in these experiments are considered trade secrets.

“Moolec has developed a unique, successful, and patentable platform for the expression of highly valuable proteins in the seeds of economically important crops such as soybeans,’ says Amit Dhingra, the company’s chief science officer. “This achievement opens up a precedent for the entire scientific community that is looking to achieve high levels of protein expression in seeds via molecular farming.”

These new Frankenfoods are designed to be the “alternative” to traditional meat, which includes raising and slaughtering pigs/cows for human consumption. Animal husbandry is now considered a threat to the climate and is being phased out all around the world to make way for the globalists’ genetic experimentation and control over the food supply. These new Frankenfoods are intended to provide more options for consumers who might reject lab-grown, petri-dish meat strains that are also currently in production. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently authorized the sale of cell-cultivated chicken on June 21. Chicken meat will soon be grown from stem cells in a bioreactor.

Study warns that CRISP-Cas gene editing of plants will have dire consequences

CRISPR-Cas gene editing wreaks havoc in the plant genome, as documented in a new study – A CRISPR-induced DNA break can trigger crossover, chromosomal loss, and chromothripsis-like rearrangements. It turns out there are alarming issues that come from genetic experiments involving plant and animal gene splicing.

“Recent scientific findings have revealed chromothripsis-like effects after the application of CRISPR/Cas gene editing in the genome of tomatoes … Chromothripsis refers to a phenomenon in which often several hundred genetic changes occur simultaneously in a catastrophic event. Many sections of the genetic material can be swapped, recombined, or even lost if this occurs …” The same phenomenon of gene swapping, gene recombination, and gene loss also occurs in human and mammalian cells that are subjected to gene editing.

Vermont Coach Fired for Saying There’s Difference Between Boys and Girls

Coach David Bloch was discussing the matter with several of his players when someone overheard the conversation and got triggered.

The coach said there are biological and physiological differences between boys and girls.

Coach Bloch had coached the team for more than a decade. He actually started the snowboarding program at the school back in 2011.

Bloch is a practicing Roman Catholic who believes that God created males and females with immutable sex, and that, based on scientific evidence, there are only two sexes, male and female and that sex is determined by a person’s chromosomes.

The following day, the superintendent of Windsor Central Supervisory Union summoned Bloch to her office and handed him a notice of “immediate termination,” while admitting that the investigation into Bloch’s conversation was not complete.

The notice accused Bloch of violating Windsor Central Supervisory Union Board’s Harassment, Hazing, and Bullying policy and the Vermont Principals’ Association related policy for “ma[king] reference to [a] student in a manner that questioned the legitimacy and appropriateness of the student competing on the girls’ team to members of the WUHS snowboard team”—all outside the student’s presence.

Fast and Furious Star Says Hollywood is “Normalizing the Devil”

Tyrese Gibson, who has starred in several hit movies for the Fast and Furious franchise, has gone viral after he stated in a recent interview that Hollywood is trying to “normalize the devil.”

While promoting Fast and Furious X, Gibson told Big Boy in a radio interview “As much as I’m supposed to be promoting this movie and my album, I feel like we’re in competition right now because they are trying to normalize the devil.”

Gibson continued “The devil is on the main stage at award shows and in every video.”

The award winning actor and music artist also noted in the interview that devil worshippers used to hide in secret but now they are practicing evil right in the open.

Fast and Furious star Tyrese Gibson is warning Christians that the world is trying to “promote the devil.”

In the middle of promoting Fast X, Gibson took a moment to call out people who are trying to “normalize the devil.”

“As much as I’m supposed to be promoting this movie and talking about my album, I just feel like we’re in competition right now because they are trying to normalize the devil,” Gibson said. “The devil is on the main stage at award shows and in every video and signs and symbols.

The Israelis set for new Jewish temple on Al-Aqsa site

With imported sacrificial cows, ancient hymns and growing support, some nationalist Jews hope to rebuild their temple in Jerusalem’s Old City, at a site at the heart of Israeli-Palestinian tensions.

In a suburb of Tel Aviv, a group of choristers were getting ready for the moment they will rejoice at the reconstruction of the Jewish temple some 2,000 years after its destruction, which they believe will accelerate the arrival of the messiah.

But for others, realising their goal would massively inflame tensions around the Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem.

Chorister Shmuel Kam said Jews have been “waiting” two millennia for the revival of the temple.

Members of the Orthodox Jewish group claim to be descendants of the biblical Tribe of Levi, which performed hymns and music at the holy site.

“When the temple will be built, we will ask the Levites to come sing and they won’t know. They have to learn,” said Menahem Rozenthal, director of the men-only choir created a few months ago by the Temple Institute.

Founded in 1987, the institute aims to rebuild the temple, training choirs and clerics and making objects for use in religious rites.

While apprentice choristers come from across Israel to delve into the collection of ancient hymns, the Temple Institute has made all of the objects deemed necessary for Jewish rites according to rabbinical instructions.

These include priestly robes, baking moulds for bread, incense burners and musical instruments.

Florida AG Says Meta Has a Human Trafficking Problem

The metaverse has a dark side, it seems. Florida’s attorney general wants answers from social media giant Meta over human trafficking activities on its platforms. Since Meta platforms host up to 85% of child sex trafficking incidents reported on social media, it’s an urgent crisis that needs addressing.

As leftist media outlets launch disgusting attacks on the movie exposing child sex trafficking, “Sound of Freedom,” it turns out there’s another human trafficking problem not being discussed — except by Florida’s attorney general. AG Ashley Moody sent a letter on July 10 to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg highlighting the issue of human trafficking activities on Meta-owned platforms lnstagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger.

Moody also serves as Chair of Florida’s Statewide Council on Human Trafficking. The Council, under orders from the state legislature, recently looked into the “frequency and extent to which social media platforms are used to assist, facilitate or support human trafficking” in Florida, with the help of law enforcement agencies, the letter explained. Moody called the results “extraordinary.” They were also sobering.

From Moody’s letter to Zuckerberg:

According to the survey, 146 of the 271 reported instances of social media platform use in human trafficking were attributable to Meta platforms (lnstagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger), more than 53% of the reported instances involved. To put this number in perspective, after Meta platforms, the next-highest social media platform used in human trafficking was Snapchat, and it was utilized 19 times, seven times less than Meta platforms.

According to the 2022 Federal Human Trafficking Report, Facebook was the top platform used in recruitment of human trafficking victims from 2019-2022. Facebook and Instagram combined to make up 60% of the top ten platforms included in the study.

Now, if you discuss election fraud, a Hunter Biden scandal, or problems with transgender indoctrination of kids, Meta will be on you like a ton of bricks. But it doesn’t seem to be doing nearly enough to target human trafficking. Talk about messed-up priorities.

Connecticut man accused of drowning his mother to silence ‘the demons’ is found dead in his cell

A Connecticut man who told police he killed his mother in order to silence “demons” that were hounding him was found dead in his cell on Monday.

34-year-old Eric Meagan was arrested in June after calling police and telling them that he had killed 56-year-old Victoria Palmer, his mother. Her lifeless body was found in the Still River near Harrybroke Park in New Milford.

Meagan was found dead in his cell at about 3:30 in the morning at the Garner Correctional Institution in Newtown, according to officials from the Connecticut Department of Correction.

The man was alone in his cell and was found with a ligature around his neck.

Paramedics attempted to revive him but were unsuccessful, a CDC official said.

A criminal complaint had previously documented what Meagan told police about the death of his mother. He allegedly said that he was on a walk with her when he got her into a headlock and submerged her head in the Still River for about ten minutes until she died.

“I had to do it to make the demons stop,” he allegedly told police later.

Meagan had a history of mental illness and allegedly told police that he had been “tormented” by demons before he killed his mother.

Across Europe Deaths Are Far Higher Now Than They Were in the ‘Pandemic Years’ of 2020 and 2021

In the year from week ending June 5th 2022 to week ending June 4th 2023 the U.K. recorded 1,059 excess death per million people. The odd thing about this is that excess deaths in the U.K. in 2023 are higher than the excess deaths in the same period in 2020-21 in 13 of the 27 EU nations!

If the people of Austria, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands and Sweden were so worried about the likelihood of dying that they acquiesced in locking themselves up, voluntarily trashed their economies and stopped their kids going to school back in 2020-21 (well, Sweden didn’t, but the rest did), why don’t we feel the need to do the same now? We have more excess deaths now than they had then.

If YouGov did a poll tomorrow asking whether or not we should, right now, go back into lockdown, how many thumbs up would it receive? Very few, I should hope. But if U.K. citizens don’t think it’s a good idea now, why did the Germans or the Finns or the Greeks think it was a good idea in 2020 and 2021? Could it be that they were manipulated? That they weren’t given the whole picture? That they were ‘had’?

Let’s try and put some perspective on this number. We can think of 1,059 excess deaths per 1,000,000 of population in several ways. As a straight percentage let’s round it down to 0.1%. This means that we expect 0.1% of the population to die in addition to the number of people we might ordinarily expect to die in the year. Or, if you prefer, an additional one person in a 1,000 will die in the year.

In the U.K. roughly one person in 100 dies every year, i.e., 1% of the population. But if we’re experiencing excess deaths at a level of 0.1% then we can expect that about 1.1% of the population will die this year. Let’s take the example of a large town or small city with 100,000 inhabitants. In a normal year we’d expect 1,000 deaths. With this year’s higher level of excess deaths, the funeral directors would expect to see 1,100 deaths. That’s all very straightforward.

In case you’d forgotten, let’s remind ourselves that the period from April 5th 2020 to April 4th 2021 included the two big spikes in fatality in Spring 2020 and winter 2020-21. It’s also the period that ended before the vaccine rollout was in any way complete. While about 50% of the U.K. population had received one dose of vaccine by then, in the EU the figure was only about 20%. This period was very much the year when we would have expected to see peak ‘all-cause’ pandemic excess deaths in the U.K. and across Europe with very little amelioration from vaccines or prior infection.

Biden Administration To Send Cluster Bombs To Ukraine, Bypassing U.S. Law

Ukraine, which is now engaged in a counter-offensive against Russian forces, is set to receive a round of cluster bombs from the Biden administration in a drawdown of weapons that bypasses U.S. law.

Despite American law prohibiting the production, use, or transfer of cluster munitions with a failure rate of more than 1%, President Joe Biden is able to bypass the law through a rarely used provision of the Foreign Assistance Act, The Washington Post reported.

Cluster bombs, first developed and used during World War II, are banned by most countries in the world due to the view that they are inhumane because of high failure rates and unexploded fragments that can linger for years, according to the BBC.

Biden approved sending the controversial weapons to Ukraine after a “unanimous” recommendation from his national security team, according to National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, who said on Friday it was a “difficult” decision made “in consultation with allies and partners and in consultation with members of Congress.”

The president is using the Foreign Assistance Act to approve the cluster munitions for Ukraine, which allows him to bypass arms export restrictions as long as he determines the move is vital to U.S. national security, The Washington Post reported. U.S. officials said the cluster bombs that will make their way to Ukraine have a failure rate of less than 3%.

The weapons pose a heightened risk to civilians as they explode in the air and release dozens of smaller submunitions, also called “bomblets,” over a wide area. The bombs, intended to destroy multiple targets at once, have been sought after by the Ukrainians as their ammunition runs low, according to The New York Times.

The U.S., Ukraine, and Russia did not join the 120 countries that banned the use of cluster bombs. Russia has been using the munitions in its war against Ukraine, according to the Pentagon, and the United Nations also believes Ukraine has already been using cluster bombs, although the country denies it.

According to the Associated Press, the transfer of cluster bombs to Ukraine will come out of Pentagon stocks in a fresh batch of military aid that also includes armored vehicles and more ammunition.
