Things are getting worse, not better, for harvest transport across the Mississippi River, the nation’s second-largest waterway.
Regional drought conditions have made it impossible, in some spots, for barges carrying the fall harvest of soybeans, corn, and other commodities from farm to market, to pass.
In some areas, barges carrying large loads of crops are stuck in the mud, which is fast-becoming dry dirt as water levels continue to drop. (Related: Some sections of the Mississippi River are now completely closed because water levels are too low to allow for safe passage.)
Right now, the Mississippi River is at its lowest level in decades. And while workarounds to the problem are in progress, many are wondering if it will all be enough to make it through the harvest season.
“There’s no relief in sight as far as rainfall,” said Jeff Worsham, a port manager out of Osceola, Ark., where barges are backing up because others have run aground and are now in their way.
When asked when he believes much-needed rain will come, Worsham told the media, simply:
“Who knows?”
Barges loading commodities at reduced capacity to avoid getting stuck in Mississippi River
In Osceola, many barges are now “dead in the water,” reports indicate. Those following behind are having to load up much less crop to avoid suffering a similar fate.
Jeff Worsham, port manager of Poinsett Rice & Grain in Osceola, Ark., said the Mississippi River is at the lowest it’s been in decades due to an ongoing drought wreaking havoc with commercial barge lines.
Barges carrying soybeans, for instance, are only loaded to about 65 percent at most. This helps keep them from running aground in shallow waters where under normal circumstances they would be able to pass without a hitch.
Climate activists arrested after blocking private jets in Amsterdam airport

Dutch border police arrested hundreds of climate activists who stormed Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport and sat in front of the wheels of aircraft to prevent them from leaving.
More than 100 protesters, wearing white suits, entered an area where private jets are kept on Saturday as part of a day of demonstrations in and around the airport organised by environmental groups.
We depend on Russia more than Russia depends on us.
Sarah Wagenknecht, the new star of German politics, puts German national interests first and is not afraid to call things by their proper names. In a new interview she states openly that the government has not yet found an alternative to Russian energy resources.According to Sarah, boycotting energy resources from Russia because of the military confrontation with Ukraine does not fit in with the logic of buying energy resources from Azerbaijan, which has shown aggression against Armenia, or the UAE, which has been bombing Yemen for years, and the US, despite the “impeccable democracy” often violates the international law.
A politician who says in plain language that there is no alternative to Germany’s partnership with Russia.
The voice of reason, which sounds amidst the populist clamor of old politicians.
“Until Proven Otherwise.” -Two World Renowned Cardiologists reach the same conclusion on what’s causing SADS. This new video VSRF is likely the most significant and important video I’ve ever made. Please share, it could save someone’s life.
Top cardiologists attribute ‘sudden death on a massive scale in young people’ to COVID jabs ‘until proven otherwise’
Personally, I find it a bit rich that the mainstream is so reluctant to see any connection between people dropping like flies and jabs stabbing into shoulders.– A video has been released by the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation containing a slew of clips of recorded sudden deaths in young people accompanied by commentary of top cardiologists.
Both Dr. Peter McCullough and British cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra are featured in the video saying that “until proven otherwise” it must be assumed that the experimental COVID jabs are to blame for the massive uptick in sudden excess deaths in the young.
From the British Heart Foundation report
‘Covid infection is no longer a driving force behind the excess cv death rate’ https://t.co/ms5rUpGRf0
Malhotra is recorded saying it is his “duty” to “inform” medical professionals and the public that the jabs are dangerous. McCullough echoed similar statements, saying, “We’re seeing sudden death now on a massive scale and it’s the COVID-19 vaccine until proven otherwise.”
The video is startling and a bit grim as the weight of a myriad of sudden deaths in young health people hits the viewer where it hurts.
But the question must be asked: Is it legitimate to assume the wave of sudden deaths in the young has something to do with the jab?
I think so. Here is why
Without even considering data or research or graphs or statistics, we can simply use our reason.
Extraordinary prediction. He’s definitely correct about a slave class. Slaves to corporate tyranny. Slaves to the psychopath https://t.co/Z8KHu7oPjH
It is undeniable that there is an uptick in deaths in the young in ways that are unprecedented, and it is undeniable that the vast majority of people in Western nations have been jabbed — in some countries more than others but a majority nonetheless.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t remember seeing constant news clips and social media posts of young people dying before 2021. It should be noted that I was a high school teacher, and when a young person died, especially while playing sports, we knew about it. And I remember it rarely happening.
So we have to consider what is different about this moment in history compared with the time before when it was not commonplace to turn on the TV and see that another young athlete had dropped dead on the field.
There is one major difference. Can you guess what it is? COVID jabs, of course.

Now, some may retort that it is actually COVID that has caused the uptick. However, COVID was allegedly rampant long before there were jabs, and especially long before the jabs were widespread among the young. However, the youth did not start dying all of the sudden until governments mandated that every Tom, Dick, and Harry be double jabbed in order to get on a plane.
Gluten is bad, keto is good, jabs are safe
Personally, I find it a bit rich that the mainstream is so reluctant to see any connection between people dropping like flies and jabs stabbing into shoulders.
This is especially interesting when we consider that we live in an age when respectable people, including doctors, nurses, politicians, athletes, etc., can express to the public why changing their diet changed their internal health, even when there is loads of evidence that could be shown to be contradictory.
Please don’t confuse my meaning. I am not throwing rocks at people who avoid gluten or follow a keto diet or any other modern trend. I am just saying that in a world where we respect everyone in their health choices while at the same time recognizing that some things work for some and not for others, it is strangely narrow-minded to avoid any consent to the idea that jabs can kill.
You can make a living selling essential oils and claim they cure illnesses (which I imagine they can in some cases), but if you say “hey, that mRNA thing that is proven to cause heart damage might be making hearts stop,” they take your medical license away and tar and feather you in public.
Of course, the jabs should be considered a danger to health and a likely cause of death, and to deny that fact is to engage in ridiculous mental gymnastics in order to hang on to a narrative like a talisman or lucky rabbit foot.

Sentenced to prison for Kurdish songs – Bolu Gündem
A supporter of the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) has been sentenced to three years in prison on terrorism charges for live-streaming Kurdish songs on social media in February, the Mezopotamya news agency reported on Wednesday.
According to Mezopotamya, the HDP supporter, identified only by the initials K.İ., was among a group of people who were traveling by bus from Turkey’s southeastern province of Hatay to Ankara to attend an HDP congress in the capital on Feb. 22.
HDP *Peoples Democratic Party ..In December 2020 HDP co-deputy head for local governments, Salim Kaplan said that “since 2016, 20,000 of our members have been taken into custody and more than 10,000 of our members and executives have been sent to jail.” and 48 municipalities have been seized by the government.[30]
During the bus ride, local performer A.E. sang Kurdish folk songs, live-streamed by K.İ. on Facebook and triggering an investigation into the HDP supporter on terrorism-related accusations, Mezopotamya said.
The HDP supporter, who was accused of spreading propaganda for a terrorist organization, defended himself in court on March 15 and denied noticing the content of the folk songs performed by A.E. or live-streaming them to praise a terrorist organization, namely the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
YPG/YPJ are Kurdish defense militias in northern Syria which resist continual attacks and invasions by Turkey. They successfully defeated ISIS, along with the multi ethnic Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF)
The Dörtyol 2nd Criminal Court of First Instance, however, sentenced K.İ. to three years in prison on Sept. 23 on charges of disseminating terrorist propaganda, Mezopotamya said, adding that the HDP supporter was arrested on Oct. 31 after the three-year sentence was upheld by a higher court.
The 17 million strong Kudish minority in Turkey are often pressured not to speak their native language. Authorities frequently claim that people speaking or singing in Kurdish are actually chanting slogans in support of the PKK, which has been leading an armed resistance, off and on, against Turkey’s security forces since the ’80s, suffering up to 40,000 deaths.
In 1999 the PKK changed abandoned Marxist Leninism for Democratic Confederalism, led by still imprisoned the charismatic Ocalan leader, and held years of peaceful ceasefire, broken by the Erdogan govt when it endangered his rule.
The new moderate muslim, anti hierarchical ideology also frees women and was adopted by the Rojava revolution in North Syria.
The international status of the PKK as ‘Terrorist’ was never cancelled, due to Turkish pressure, and nowadays all Kurdish resistance, even a song, is branded as ‘terrorist PKK support’ with long or indefinite imprisonment.
Turkish authorities have traditionally fanned nationalist support by racist, xenophobic persecution of minorities. They have increasingly restricted the use of Kurdish in recent years. Hate crimes against Kurds for speaking their language have also increased.
Prohibitions against the use of Kurdish in Turkey go back many years. Kurdish language, clothing, folklore and names had been banned since 1937.
The words “Kurds,” “Kurdistan” and “Kurdish” were among those officially prohibited. After a military coup in 1980, speaking Kurdish was officially forbidden even in private life.
