Mother Gaians have been trying to convince us for years that locusts are a great source of protein, so couldn’t the starving africans just eat the locusts instead of vice versa?

Revelation 9:3
And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth.

What about cocoa? This could be a major disaster in the making if they interrupt the chocolate supply.

We haven’t done a very good job since the 1960s. We are turning into a surveillance police state and racing toward socialist totalitarian oppression. Never mind the impending financial collapse as our national debt races toward $40 trillion by 2025. That sounds dramatic but if you do the math with the rate of normal budget deficits during Trump’s 1st term, add in 4-5 trillion dollars for this national shutdown, then factor in all the lost tax revenue and the corporate tax write-offs going forward, $40 trillion national debt in 5 years is not a stretch.

I really need to buy more gold. Such a pisser at $1700/ounce.

Locust swarm over the land about every 25 years. They swarm over the Middle East as well, same time frame.
They eat anything green...except acacia. THAT is poisonous to them.

They come up from the earth and sand, all of a sudden. It's really ghastly.

My dad lived through the Dust Bowl years in South Dakota. He told stories about the steam trains coming through town. They’d stop, the locusts would swarm, and they’d accumulate so thick on the tracks that the driving wheels would slip when the train tried to pull out. And he said he saw swarms strip fields bare in the blink of an eye.

My mother was a depression child in South Dakota. Locusts turned the land from green to brown in minutes.
