DreamLog: Global Civil War sparked by Iran war. All countries split politically, purposly driven by US/Russia to topple central banking, decemating funds (War = expensive). Exhausted resources: banks, medical, gas, oil. Global collapse. US/Russia used hackers in subs, siphoning further in secret.

They Promised Housing. They Built Garden Sheds. The VA’s answer to a federal court order: 800 eight-by-eight-foot boxes on a campus donated 137 years ago to house disabled veterans.

"Emergency exits were dog doors β€” small flaps at floor level. Some were blocked by electrical wiring...These are disabled veterans. Some are in wheelchairs. A dog door at floor level isn’t an escape β€” it’s a death trap with a hinge."

I was listening to your recorded podcast on YouTube (didn't make the live) & the moment you said Hawaii, I saw San Francisco, West Coast target of California. Not sure why, but specifically Golden Gate Bridge. Saw China too. I agree w/ Memorial Day assessment.

Congress has just become irrelevant and redundant. Prepare for the dismantling.

It's the 'gold standard' in autism care. Why are states reining it in? Budget shortfalls and nearly $1 trillion in looming federal Medicaid cuts have prompted states to rein in spending on a widely embraced autism therapy, pinching families who depend on the services.

Rain Graves standing in a floor length black Celtic dress with dagged sleeves and the phases of the moon embroidered in white on the front like a wide belt. She wears a black raven feather and leather headpiece and is holding a custom wood staff with oak leaves and a single clear quartz generator crystal at the top.
