ALERT!!!!! Bill Gates Buy The Largest Beer Brewing Companies in Europe
A new financial disclosure report reveals that Bill Gates dropped nearly $1 billion to acquire a nearly 4 percent stake in Dutch drinks giant Heineken Holding last week in spite of the billionaire Microsoft founder’s previous admission that he was “not a big beer drinker.”
A filing by the Netherlands’ Financial Markets Authority said the shares were purchased on February 17. Heineken Holding owns a controlling stake in brewer Heineken NV. Gates purchased the shares from Mexico’s FEMSA, which is selling out of the brewing company.
A separate filing from the same day showed that FEMSA sold all 18 million shares it held in Heineken Holding. Shortly after, Gates purchased 10.8 million shares, worth $940 million at current market prices.
Gates has previously confessed to not being a “big beer drinker” in a 2018 “Ask Me Anything” chat session on Reddit.
Some of Gates’ previous purchases have raised eyebrows, such as his recent purchases of large swaths of farmland across the United States.
In July of last year, Gates spent $13.5 million on a purchase of farmland in North Dakota, which earned opposition and a legal challenge, but was ultimately approved.
As of 2021, his largest holdings in the U.S. included 69,071 acres in Louisiana, 47,927 acres in Arkansas, 25,750 acres in Arizona, 20,588 acres in Nebraska and 16,097 in Washington state.

GEN. FLYNN SUING DEEP STATE FOR $50 MILLION
Flynn was commissioned in the U.S. Army as a second lieutenant in military intelligence in 1981. His military assignments included
multiple tours at Fort Bragg, North Carolina,
with the 82nd Airborne Division, XVIII Airborne
Corps, and Joint Special Operations Command, where he deployed for the invasion of Grenada and Operation Uphold Democracy in Haiti.[49][54] He also served with the 25th Infantry Division at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, Louisiana, and the Army Intelligence Center at Fort Huachuca, Arizona.
Initially, Flynn was not going to be deployed to Grenada in 1983, but he was able to convince a superior officer to have him included. While serving there, Flynn took a 40-foot leap off a cliff to retrieve two soldiers stranded in the ocean and bring them back to shore to be airlifted. Though he was reprimanded for his unauthorized actions, Flynn garnered respect among his fellow soldiers for what he did.

Ukraine-Discover the untold story about the US's involvement
Discover the untold story about the US's involvement in the violent overthrow of Ukraine's government, the Eastern Ukraine referendums, and the War in Donbas. Are you ready to challenge what you know?
#2 The United States engineered a regime change in Ukraine after President Viktor Yanukovych refused to sign an EU agreement and IMF loan.
Yanukovych deemed Russia's $15 billion bailout package and discounted gas prices to be a superior offer compared to the West's proposal.
3 The violent overthrow of Ukraine's elected government caused the Russian-speaking populations of Eastern Ukraine to vote to break apart from the newly formed western-backed government in Ukraine.
For example, 97% of Crimea declared independence and voted overwhelmingly to secede and join Russia.
The US, EU, and Ukraine's new government refused to recognize the will of the Eastern Ukrainian people, who historically voted pro-Russia.
Instead, CIA Director John Brennan visited Kyiv, and Ukraine's new government launched an "anti-terrorist operation" to suppress the protests in Eastern Ukraine.
Millions of innocent civilians were caught in the crossfire of a geopolitical chess match.
The Western media's coverage overlooks the US's role in the 2014 coup, Eastern Ukraine's referendums, and the War in Donbas, which culminated in Russia's 2022 invasion.
Was it worth all this bloodshed just because Ukraine rejected an EU agreement and IMF loan?

WORLD AT RISK WUHAN SARS- COV-2
BILL GATES CRIMES: U.S. patents show CDC ownership of Coronavirus. Both China and the U.S. involved in the creation of Wuhan SARS-CoV-2. Gates and CCP controlled WHO appoints criminal Tedros. CDC, FDA, CIA, NIH, Gates, Fauci, Baric, Rockefeller are all involved in Federal Crimes.
Bill Gates and the Rockefeller foundation paid Google, Facebook, Politico, Wikipedia, Fact Checkers in order to censor and control all the information.
The CIA has been using Operation Mockingbird for years and has over 3,000 agents implanted in Mainstream Media to control the population.
Event 201 was sponsored by Bill Gates, the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security (CIA) and the World Economic Forum to enforce a worldwide Pandemic response 5 months before the WHO fraudulently declared a global pandemic. It was a planned coordinated criminal effort worldwide.
In January 2017 Anthony Fauci said there will be a surprise virus outbreak before the end of 2020. Bill Gates in 2015 talked of a future pandemic and lied in April 2020 when he said they did not simulate or practice for a pandemic.
Klaus Schwab in his book Covid-19 The Great Reset shows Covid was the Trojan Horse to Reset the World according to the UN 2030 Agenda. Build Back Better slogan is a criminal coordinated effort to remove human rights and institute a one world government.
Bill Gates and the Rockefeller foundation bribes the WHO, NIH, NIAID, CDC, FDA, Medical Schools and Journals to control the health industry and public health policy.
WHO Chief Tedros involved in genocide killing and torture in Ethiopia. Tedros is a known member of the communist party. He is Beijing's and Bill Gates puppet. As a Health Minister he was accused of covering up three Cholera Epidemics and committing crimes against humanity. The CCP and Bill Gates helped put Tedros in charge of the WHO.
John D. Rockefeller over 100 years ago seized the U.S. Media and took control over public health using toxic petroleum based drugs for profit and controlled the American Medical Association blacklisting and expelling any doctors who practiced natural medicine.
Rockefeller's poison injections and medicines started causing cancer in early years and to cover it up formed the American Cancer Society. Medical error is the 3rd leading cause of death in America.
Bill Gates used India and Africa as guinea pigs for pharmaceutical companies to make a financial killing while killing a lot of people in the process including killing innocent children and babies with vaccines. Bill Gates controls GAVI The Vaccine Alliance to vaccinate the world with his poisons.
National Security Study Memorandum NSSM 200 Implications of Worldwide Population Growth For U.S. Security and Overseas Interests December 10, 1974 (THE KISSINGER REPORT) shows the intention of governments to reduce the population.
Bill Gates is one of the key funders in the Stratosphere experiment to block out the sun for Climate Change by releasing poisons in the air. Environmental Scientist call it global genocide experiment. Gates has invested over one billion dollars in the Earth Now Global Surveillance project to launch hundreds of satellites to monitor people everywhere 24/7 a day.
In partnership with MIT Bill Gates has developed a new technology that allows vaccines to be injected under your skin along with your medical records. Bill Gates Gates funded genetically modified mosquitoes released in the USA to allow human immunization by means of mosquito bites "Flying Syringes."
Bill Gates had business dealings and a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted child sex criminal. Why would he choose to partner with the world's most notorious pedophile? To Blackmail?
Bill Gates is the top financial donor of the WHO and CDC. No one person has more power than Gates to influence and control the health and medical freedom of all people. Bill Gates and all mRNA Vaccines must be stopped. This is a global genocide experiment and a takeover of the world.

BREAKING - Warnings from North Korea as the US Air Force & South Korean fighter jets fly over South Korea
BREAKING - Even after stern warnings from North Korea, US Air Force B-1B Lancer, and South Korean F-15K and KF-16 fighter jets fly over South Korea during joint air drill.
North Korea Warns U.S., Says ‘Provocative Acts’ May Be Construed as a ‘Declaration Of War’
FEBRUARY 27, 2023
North Korea test-fired four “Hwasal-2 strategic cruise missiles” from the city of Kim Chaek towards the Sea of Japan on Friday morning, according to reports in North Korean media. This announcement coincided with joint military exercises hosted by the Pentagon and involving US and South Korean forces.
In response to what it sees as persistent “hostile and provocative practices” by the US, North Korea has warned that these actions may be construed as a ‘declaration of war’, according to a statement by Kwon Jong-gun, the director-general of the North Korean Foreign Ministry’s US affairs department, as reported by state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

Editor’s Note: The U.S., ROK, DPRK, and Japan need to proceed carefully. A conflict on the Peninsula would spread. The aftermath for the region would be ugly on multiple levels. Beyond the death and destruction from kinetic conflict, eventually the region would be faced with the migration of millions of malnourished, stunted and wasted North Koreans. This outcome is of particular concern to China as they share an 840-mile common border.

Trump can be sued for Jan. 6 riot, Justice Department says
WASHINGTON— Donald Trump isn’t automatically shielded from civil lawsuits seeking to hold him accountable for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the Justice Department argued Thursday, declining to back the former president’s claims of “absolute immunity” from allegations he sparked the violence that disrupted the peaceful transfer of power.
While expressing no view on the truth of the allegations, the Justice Department urged a three-judge appeals-court panel to reject the former president’s immunity claims in lawsuits brought by Capitol police officers and Democratic lawmakers that say he incited his supporters to storm the Capitol.
A lower-court judge previously dismissed Mr. Trump’s immunity claims, ruling that the plaintiffs had plausibly alleged that the then-president’s fiery rhetoric during a Jan. 6, 2021, speech galvanized his supporters to violently oppose the certification of the 2020 election results.
In a 32-page court filing, the department broadly argued that the incitement of violence falls outside the scope of a president’s duties. “In the United States’ view, such incitement of imminent private violence would not be within the outer perimeter of the office of the president of the United States,” Justice Department lawyers said.

BREAKING- Skyscraper under construction on fire in Hong Kong.
Massive fire hits Hong Kong high-rise construction site
A construction site for a Hong Kong high-rise was engulfed in flames late Thursday, with firefighters on the scene battling the blaze, city authorities said. Officials said the fire broke out at 11:11 pm (1511 GMT) in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, a busy shopping and tourist district on the city's harbourfront.
A construction site for a Hong Kong high-rise was engulfed in flames late Thursday, with firefighters on the scene battling the blaze, city authorities said.
Officials said the fire broke out at 11:11 pm (1511 GMT) in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, a busy shopping and tourist district on the city's harbourfront.
No casualties had been reported early Friday, according to the government.
Flames were first spotted near scaffolding at the top of the building, with the blaze clearly visible across the harbour and sending sparks raining down onto neighbouring streets.
Around an hour later, the fire had spread down the length of the building and was approaching street level, where hundreds of onlookers had gathered.
Large pieces of debris -- apparently from the site -- were visible on the ground, and an acrid smell permeated the air, an AFP reporter on the scene said.

‘Flagrant, In-Your-Face Corruption’ Led to Environmental Disaster from OH Train Derailment
‘The recent Ohio derailment disaster involving a train carrying vinyl chloride — a carcinogenic gas used to make PVC (polyvinyl chloride) plastic — could likely have been prevented if U.S. Department of Transportation regulators had insisted “ruthlessly cost-cutting” companies like Norfolk Southern implement proper safety standards, according to award-winning journalist and author, David Sirota.
Sirota — founder and editor of the investigative news outlet The Lever and columnist for The Guardian — said the disaster was an “emblematic” example of how “agency capture” results in regulators “basically doing the bidding of the industries they’re supposed to be regulating.”
Leading up to the Ohio disaster, U.S. regulators in both the Obama and Trump administrations made “deliberate decisions” to not insist industry implement safety rules as recommended by experts, Sirota said.
I think America is learning a lesson here — which is important — that we need people in regulatory positions who are not afraid to push powerful corporations,” Sirota told Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., chairman and chief litigation counsel for Children’s Health Defense during an episode of “RFK Jr. The Defender Podcast.”
Obama adopts narrow definition of ‘high-hazard flammable train’
Sirota told Kennedy the Obama administration — prompted by a string of disastrous train derailments — “finally” started considering new regulations for trains carrying potentially hazardous materials.
The definition for what constitutes a “high-hazard flammable train” was a key detail in the new rules, Sirota said, because “from there, that means who the rules are applied to.”
Experts with the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board came to Obama’s regulators and said the definition should be broad and cover all sorts of hazardous materials — including crude oil, ethanol and chemicals like vinyl chloride.
“The chemical industry then came to the Obama administration, and said, ‘No, no, no,’” Sirota said, leading the administration in 2015 to make the “very fateful decision” to adopt a narrow definition for a high-hazard flammable train.
“The Ohio train — which blew up into a giant fireball [with] hundred-foot flames — was not actually classified as a high-hazard flammable train,” Sirota said.
After lobbyists donate $6 million to Republicans, Trump repeals brake upgrade mandate
The 2015 new rules at least included one important safety provision, Sirota said — trains covered by the rules would be required to upgrade to a more advanced braking technology, “known as electronic pneumatic braking systems,” to prevent derailments.
“It’s worth mentioning that before that mandate, the railway industry itself had been touting this [by] saying, ‘These [upgraded] breaks work really well to prevent derailments and to mitigate the impact when derailments happen,’” Sirota said.
“But the moment there was floated a mandate — that the government was going to say, ‘Okay, well if they’re so good, we’re going require them’ — the industry flipped sides and started lobbying against it.”
First, industry lobbyists got Senate Republicans to start championing a repeal of the break rule. Then, after more than $6 million dollars in campaign contributions flowed to Republican campaigns, the Trump administration in 2017 repealed the brake upgrade rule.
The Biden administration has not acted to reinstate the brake rule or expand the kinds of trains subjected to tougher safety regulations, Sirota added.
Biden thought Ohio disaster would ‘just blow over’
Sirota told Kennedy he thought the Biden administration had hoped news of the recent Ohio train disaster would “just blow over,” since there are now roughly 1,000 train derailments in the U.S. every year.
“What I think is interesting about that is if you read between the lines, the insinuation is, ‘Well, look, America’s gotten used to this, right? This is just normal now.’”
The problem is that no one is held accountable, Sirota said. “This is flagrant, in-your-face corruption.”
According to Sirota, the railway industry uses a “ruthlessly cost-cutting” business model “focused solely on profits and buybacks … which effectively enrich executives and shareholders.” Then industry “presumes” it won’t be regulated and won’t face real consequences if and when things go bad.
Kennedy and Sirota discussed how railway companies like Norfolk Southern and financial corporations — including Vanguard, BlackRock, JP Morgan and Wells Fargo — rack up billions annually in profits via stock buybacks.
There’s a huge need for governmental regulation, Sirota said, particularly because railway companies have a monopoly on transporting goods — so consumers who are appalled by a company’s irresponsible behavior do not generally have the option of taking their business elsewhere.
Sirota pointed to Lina Khan, chair of the Federal Trade Commission, as an example of a regulator who understands her job is not to appease the industries she regulates, but “to protect the public and push powerful people around, if that’s what it takes to protect people.”
“I think that’s what we need at the Department of Transportation,” Sirota said.

The Collective West- International Law - 2014 Ukrainian Nazis Shelling and Killing Ukrainian citizens
#1 In 2014, Human Rights Watch reported that Ukraine's military was firing grad rockets at civilians in Donetsk.
Did Ukraine's rocket attacks on Donbas civilians contribute to Russia's decision to invade?
#2 In 2014, Human Rights Watch reported that Ukraine's military was dropping cluster bombs on civilians in Donetsk.
Did Ukraine's cluster bomb attacks on Donbas civilians contribute to Russia's decision to invade?
#3 "114 countries have signed a treaty to ban the use of cluster munitions. Although Ukraine is not one of those countries, firing cluster munitions into populated areas is still a violation of the laws of war and may amount to war crimes."
#4 Text messages found on Hunter Biden's laptop show the President's son asking his brother’s widow-turned-mistress, Hallie Biden if she believed that he had “children burned alive in DONETSK” or “children killed in donetsk, Ukraine.”
#5 Hunter Biden's text messages likely refer to Ukrainian oligarch Ihor Kolomoysky, his reported Burisma Holdings boss, who funded the rise of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the neo-Nazi battalions accused of killing civilians in Eastern Ukraine.
