BREAKING: 🇵🇾 What just happened in PARAGUAY is a WARNING for everyone on earth.
More than 3 million people (60% of Paraguay's adult population) have lost access to EVERYTHING. Their bank accounts. Their pensions. Frozen. Inaccessible.
Paraguay’s largest digital bank, Ueno Bank, has collapsed.
The president of the Central Bank (who is deeply connected to Ueno) has just RESIGNED. Eight high-level executives including the founder and the Bank President are being detained.
The people have taken to the streets to demand their money back. And rightly so.
This is the model Milei and the rest of the Epstein class are pushing. This could happen ANYWHERE. Best to save in physical gold and physical silver, imo.
What happens when urban development overlooks the people it affects most? Join us for the webinar Fridays from the Field as we unpack the findings of “Fallen by the Wayside”— an on-the-ground study of the human impact of the KEIP funded by @ADB_HQ Register:bit.ly/48qXjQX

🔥 Initiative for Right View (IRV) gives @ADB_HQ 0️⃣ — the worst score.
ADB still props up gas 🛢️, coal ⛏️ & false “transition” tech. This is greenwashing, not a clean energy transition.
Communities deserve energy that empowers 🌿⚡✊

Look behind Narendra Modi, you will see an expensive Air Purifier switched on.
All BJP leaders are enjoying fresh air from Air Purifiers while patronising poor Delhiites to burst crackers in the name of fake religious pride.
This is how they fool people.
विश्व के सबसे लोकप्रिय नेता और भारत के यशस्वी प्रधानमंत्री, आदरणीय श्री @narendramodi जी से शिष्टाचार भेंट कर दीपावली की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं प्रेषित कीं।
माननीय प्रधानमंत्री जी का सान्निध्य और उनका आशीर्वाद नई ऊर्जा और संकल्प के साथ दिल्ली की सेवा में और अधिक समर्पण से कार्य करने की प्रेरणा देता है।
आपके बहुमूल्य समय और मार्गदर्शन के लिए हृदय से आभार।
