"They cause fear and they disrupt lives, and it’s for that reason that they’re taken very seriously. “It’s more than the individual targets. It’s the families and those associated with them,” he said. That is the purpose of the postings, an Australian man who admits to using the Professor Rat name and to posting these kinds of threats said in a telephone interview and a series of e-mails: To scare people out of working for the government. . . .

Exploits: Delta Airlines Offers Cpunks A New Get-Rich-Quick Game

For all you degens bored with the 100x crypto game... Appears anyone who can predict congestion, or who can selectively buy tickets and show up with bodies to create congestion... can easily multiply their initial investment... Delta Offered $10,000 To Flyers Willing To Give Up Seats On Oversold Flight https://www.inc.com/jason-aten/on-this-flight-delta-just-did-something-unhe… https://www.ktvb.com/video/travel/delta-air-lines-reportedly-offered-10000-… https://www.yahoo.com/news/flying-july-4-weekend-delta-150036672.html https://www.cbsnews.com/news/delta-10000-offer-to-switch-flights/ https://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/15/delta-says-it-will-pay-passengers-up-to-nea… https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/news/2019/04/09/david-dao-doctor-drag… Confronted with an overbooked flight last week, Delta flight attendants channeled Vito Corleone and tried making boarded passengers an offer they couldn't refuse: Give up your seat and receive the princely sum of $10,000 in cash, not flight credit. The shock of that number is compounded by the fact that this wasn't a long-haul international flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg or LAX to Sydney. We're talking about a 90-minute hop from Grand Rapids to Minneapolis. The episode first gained public attention via a first-person account by Inc. tech columnist Jason Aten. Flight attendants were looking for eight people to change flights to a later date. "If you have Apple Pay, you'll even have the money right now," Aten says one of them declared. Another passenger, Todd McCrumb, told KTVB that Delta's bid started at $5,000, a sum that likely would've generated headlines on its own if things had stopped there. He said the offer sounded so far-fetched he asked fellow passengers if the crew was joking. The juicy offer came as the airline industry is beset with cancellations and delays driven by a shortage of pilots and understaffing at the FAA. Seeking to minimize problems during the July 4 weekend, Delta this week offered customers the option to rebook without change fees or even fare differences. Apparently not wanting to show its cards to future travelers, Delta declined various media outlets' requests for comment on the specific $10,000 offer. Speaking more generally, a spokesperson told CBS MoneyWatch: "The ability to provide compensation on full flights empowers our employees' efforts to care for customers and get aircraft out on time." In 2017, CNBC reported that Delta had boosted the limit for enticements for "voluntary denied boardings." At that time, the standard limit became $2,000, but the real maximum - subject to various rules and authorizations from management - grew to $9,950. That Delta policy change came after a spectacular, reputation-bruising episode in which a seated United Airlines passenger, 69-year old Dr. David Dao, refused to relinquish his seat in favor of an airline employee who needed to fly. He was violently removed, with cell phone video capturing his bloody face and broken eyeglasses. According to his lawyers, Dao's was concussed, had a broken nose and lost two teeth. Dao, a lung specialist, told USA Today he refused because he was about to oversee the opening of a clinic he founded to serve veterans, as his way of expressing gratitude to service members: The U.S. Navy plucked Dao from the ocean as he fled Communist Vietnam some 44 years earlier. At first, United's CEO called Dao "disruptive and belligerent," but apologized after public uproar. Dao sued and received an undisclosed settlement. We're guessing it was far north of $10,000.

Like George Soros and Klaus Schwab, all these secret Davos WEF and Bilderberg bastards have their dirty hands in countless globalist control freakery and diabolical enslavement programmes... You will own nothing, and you will NOT be happy. Never sell to these non-human scumbuckets. Bill Gates Granted Authority To Buy 2100 More Acres Of North Dakota Farmland https://summit.news/2022/07/01/bill-gates-granted-authority-to-buy-2100-mor… https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10971639/Bill-Gates-wins-legal-app… https://summit.news/2021/01/15/bill-gates-buying-up-huge-amount-of-farmland… https://summit.news/2022/01/20/video-bill-gates-calls-for-aggressive-carbon… https://twitter.com/backtolife_2023/status/1540412589355794433?ref_src=twsr… https://twitter.com/Doctorfromliny/status/1539553552875634688?ref_src=twsrc… Bill Gates, who already owns close to 270,000 acres of land in the U.S., has been granted the legal authority to buy another 2100 acres in North Dakota despite protests by local residents. Gates, already the largest farmland owner in the country, has secured the go ahead to buy the land for $13.5 million under his ‘Red River Trust’ company. Bill Gates' exposed ND land buy has locals livid pic.twitter.com/HTuwqSPRDB — Wittgenstein (@backtolife_2023) June 24, 2022 Gates is circumventing a 1932 anti-corporate farm ownership law by pledging to lease the land back to farmers after the purchase is complete. The Daily Mail reports: North Dakota’s Agriculture Commissioner, Republican Doug Goehring, previously said that many people feel they are being exploited by the ultra-rich who buy land but do not necessarily share the state’s values. ‘I’ve gotten a big earful on this from clear across the state, it’s not even from that neighborhood,’ Goehring told KFYR-TV. ‘Those people are upset, but there are others that are just livid about this.’ Bill Gates acquired six parcels of land in Pembina County. Tuesday, the office of the Attorney General sent out a letter asking the Red River Trust to confirm how the company plans to use the land and if it meets any of the exceptions to the North Dakota Corporate Farming Laws. pic.twitter.com/MGGFKV16mm — DOCTOR FROM LONG ISLAND NEW YORK (@Doctorfromliny) June 22, 2022 Gates now owns 268,984 acres of multi-use land in 19 states: As we have previously noted, Bill Gates and other billionaires have been buying up huge amounts of farmland while Americans are being told by neo-feudalist ‘Great Reset’ technocrats that the future is one without private property. Gates is also intent on pushing 100% synthetic meat products while he buys up record amounts of farmland and monopolizes global food production.
