Organ harvesting and the related human trafficking and murders are despicable crimes. Organs can only be extracted for transplant from the living, who then due painfully after vital organs had been cut out, usually without proper anesthetic so as kit to burden the organs and reduce the street value.
Organs on the move is?
How many people know that the husband of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen holds a senior position in an international biotechnology company involved in processing human cells, tissues and pancreatic material for transplantation?
And how many know that this company has longstanding biotechnology operations and research relationships in Israel?
These are not simply rumours circulating on social media. The corporate relationships are documented in American regulatory filings and the company’s own announcements.

Europe is preparing for the final war, and its governments are telling citizens to get ready for major disruption.
🇬🇧 UK: 3 days of water, food, torch, radio and cash
🇪🇺 EU: 72 hours of supplies for every citizen
🇩🇪 Germany: 10 days. Public bunkers for less than 1% of the people. Every 18-year-old man now gets a military questionnaire.
🇫🇷 France: a 20-page survival guide
🇸🇪 Sweden: "If Crisis or War Comes" booklets sent to 5 million homes
Meanwhile, the wealthy are buying $50,000 places in nuclear-hardened shelters and turning Cold War missile silos into luxury bunkers.
They locked you down in 2020.
Now they tell you to stock up for war.
So ask yourself: when it comes, who goes to the front line, and who goes underground?
The people they ignored for years are the ones they will ask to fight.
They get the bunkers. You get the front line.
In addition to Russia holding referenda and the local Russian-speaking population unsurprisingly voting to leave the Kiev regime that had bombed them since 2014 and had banned the Russian language.

Der Staat kann also innerhalb kürzester Zeit 10.000 Bußgeldverfahren wegen unausgefüllter Bundeswehr-Fragebögen einleiten, per Haftbefehl gesuchten Schwerverbrechern aber das Bürgergeld nicht abdrehen.
Wir werden für dumm verkauft.
Says the low-ranking CIA agent tasked with selling US energy at 5 times the price of Russian energy to Europe.
Unbelievable hypocrisy. This Eurocrat-Commissar-dictator has forced many European countries to import hundreds of thousands, even millions of migrants from outside the EU in recent years.
And now she says it was Russia forcing such damaging policies on Europe.
(2) The US used its influence in the IMF to change the IMF manual so that henceforth (from 1993) everyone would use GDP instead of GNP, which made the US economy look bigger and Japan's look smaller.
The top ten countries are heading towards extinction of their indigenous population.

The original absolute ranking (from the @stats_feed post / matching UN DESA-derived figures) is re-ranked here by the size of each country’s increase as a percentage of its ~2026 total population. Populations are approximate mid/early-2026 figures drawn from consistent UN World Population Prospects 2024 (medium variant) elaborations (e.g., Worldometer and related sources). Increases are the rounded figures from the source post.
Notes and caveats
This is the 2000–2024 change in resident international migrant stock (UN DESA definition, which can include refugees, asylum seekers, and naturalised persons depending on national data) expressed as a share of recent total population. It is not the current migrant share of the population, nor the percentage growth of the migrant stock itself (the latter ranking, from the same data, is led by much smaller countries such as Malta).Visualcapitalist
Populations are approximate; different sources (national statistical offices vs. UN projections) differ by small margins. Using 2024 or 2025 figures would shift the percentages only modestly.
Absolute totals are the rounded values published in the source post (exact UN DESA figures are available in the underlying dataset and closely match).
The top of the absolute ranking (UK, Spain, Germany) falls to mid-table once size is controlled for; several smaller countries rise because the same absolute numbers represent a larger relative change.
Sources for the absolute increases: UN DESA International Migrant Stock 2024 (via the original post and contemporaneous analyses). Population denominators: UN World Population Prospects 2024 medium-variant elaborations for ~2026.

This is to show us where central bank digital currency (the digital euro, the digital pound, the digital yen) are heading.
🇬🇧 UK TAX AUTHORITY RESUMES DIRECT SEIZURES FROM BANK ACCOUNTS
HMRC has reinstated powers suspended during the pandemic that allow it to recover unpaid taxes directly from individuals’ and businesses’ bank accounts without obtaining a court order.
The policy, restarted in a “test and learn” phase in 2025, applies to tax debts of £1,000 or more and allows HMRC to withdraw funds from current accounts and cash ISAs.
Safeguards include:
• A minimum of £5,000 must remain in the debtor’s accounts.
• HMRC must make a face-to-face visit before initiating recovery.
• Debtors have 30 days to appeal before any funds are transferred.
• Vulnerable individuals and those experiencing financial hardship may receive additional protections.
The powers allow the government to compel banks and building societies to transfer funds directly to HMRC to settle outstanding tax liabilities.
