Microsoft founder Bill Gates has warned the US will face another financial collapse on the same scale as the 2008 recession
Bill Gates has warned the United States is headed for another financial meltdown on the scale of the 2008 recession.
The billionaire Microsoft founder, 62, gave the stark prediction during an ‘Ask Me Anything’ Q&A on Reddit last week.
When asked if he thought the US would be hit by another major financial crisis he replied: “Yes. It is hard to say when but this is a certainty.”
The 2008 financial crisis was triggered in the US over problems in the country’s subprime property market and then grew into a devastating global recession.

A major Illuminati-backed deep state false flag plot may be underway and is possibly set to occur during Sunday night’s Super Bowl game
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (INTELLIHUB) — On Sunday, two American-themed football teams will faceoff inside U.S. Bank Stadium for the National Football League’s 52nd annual Super Bowl where over 60,000 fans will be in attendance for the Level-1 designated National Special Security Event just days after the Super Bowl Host Committee abruptly replaced EPG Security group with the globalist-controlled firm G4S, raising numerous red flags.
The New England Patriots are set to battle the Philadelphia Eagles under the roof in a much-anticipated showdown, as thousands of law enforcement personnel and G4S security guard the stadium and its entire 10-mile parameter.

The abrupt change in security came last week after it was discovered that the Minneapolis-based firm was not conducting sufficient background checks on their employees.
When asked to comment, EPG issued the following statement: “We are not at liberty to comment on changing security strategies and assignments.”
EPG has since deleted a number of its social media pages but the Star Tribune managed to locate a cached version of an Instagram post which confirms that the company was, in fact, “hiring hundreds of protective agents for two major upcoming events in the Twin Cities: Red Bull Crashed Ice and Super Bowl Live.”

A G4S security guard, who asked not to be identified because he did not have permission to talk to the press, said the company sent staff from across the country, including Georgia, North Carolina and Florida, to work Super Bowl Live and that they have been on duty since last weekend.
The security guard’s testimony confirms the depth of the situation. However, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There’s more — a lot more.
Former D.C. police chief, high school dropout, heads up Super Bowl security
It just so happens, the current NFL Security Chief Kathy Lanier was the former District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Chief from 2006-2016, during the Obama Administration.
The NFL security chief dropped out of school in the ninth grade and became a teenage mother at the age of 15 before joining D.C. Metropolitan Police Department in 1990 where she progressed through the ranks until she became the Commander at the Office of Homeland Security and Counter-terrorism in 2006.
According to a Tweet fired out by investigative reporter George Webb on Saturday, “Kathy Lanier, ex-DC Police Captain, head of NFL Security, [is] now employing new-Nazi (kinda) G4S for the Super Bowl, allowed an active subversive reprisal group in the Department.”
Take note of the New World Order-style symbolism that’s tattooed on the security officer’s right forearm. It’s a pyramid with the Eye of Providence.

Webb’s observation and the photo are concerning, to say the least.
Additionally, we can see subliminal propaganda being pushed on the NFL’s official Twitter feed which suggests that danger may lie ahead at tonight’s game.
In the Tweet posted Sunday, you can see Fletcher Cox #91 standing next to the Super Bowl LII logo which appears to form a combination of numbers ‘911–II,’ as in 9/11 part two!
We have spoken to numerous experts, including current and former CIA agents and analysts, current and former agents of the Drug Enforcement Administration and current and former Wackenhut executives and employees, all of whom have said that in the mid-197O’s, after the Senate Intelligence Committee’s revelations of the CIA’s covert and sometimes illegal overseas operations, the agency and Wackenhut grew very, very close.
Those revelations had forced the CIA to do a housecleaning, and it became CIA policy that certain kinds of activities would no longer officially be performed. But that didn’t always mean that the need or the desire to undertake such operations disappeared.
And that’s where Wackenhut came in.
Our sources confirm that Wackenhut has had a long-standing relationship with the CIA, and that it has deepened over the last decade or so. Bruce Berckmans, who was assigned to the CIA station in Mexico City, left the agency in January 1975 (putatively) to become a Wackenhut international-operations vice president.
Berckmans, who left Wackenhut in 1981, told SPY that he has seen a formal proposal George Wackenhut submitted to the CIA to allow the agency to use Wackenhut offices throughout the world as fronts for CIA activities.
As you can see, Wackenhut has a deep dark history.
Did FBI Director Christopher Wray really just put out some kind of cryptic message regarding the Super Bowl LII?
It just so happens that a note sent by FBI Director Christopher Wray, in regards to the current FISA memo fiasco, may have had some sort of cryptic message embedded into it.

“While Democrats and Republicans argue over the veracity and impact of the long-anticipated FISA memo, FBI Director Christopher Wray – who despite being appointed by President Trump opposed his push to have the memo released — sent a heartfelt note to the bureau’s rank and file employees, reassuring them that this, too, shall pass, and thanking them for their dedicated service,” Zero Hedge reported late last week.
The questionable line in Wray’s note reads: “Remember: keep calm and tackle hard.”
Could this be some sort of coded message relating to Sunday’s Super Bowl and, if so, what does it mean?

The rundown
To recap, so far, we have a freshly inserted NFL Security Chief who was the former D.C. police chief during the Obama Administration who just last week replaced a Minneapolis-based security firm with G4S (known to have ties to the CIA) amid the first ever Super Bowl to have two American-themed teams playing against each other.
Do you realize the magnitude of this? If a terror attack or staged false flag were to occur during Sunday’s game it would be devastating to America’s facade and would allow the deep state to retaliate against another boogyman enemy, like al-Queda, which would, in turn, ultimately allow the gears of war to turn yet once again.
Philidelphia Eagles owner’s Wikipedia page, death date, edited, changed to Sunday, Feb. 4, 2018, despite the fact that he is still alive

Jeffrey Lurie is the owner of the Philadelphia Eagles and an actor and producer, as his IMDb and his Wikipedia state.
However, Lurie’s Wikipedia was recently altered to show that he died on Feb. 4, 2018, on Super Bowl Sunday.
Moreover, the New England Patriots coach Ernie Adams was listed as dying on 4 Feb. as well. The ominous edits were made on 29 Jan, as seen below.
Could such an edit suggest an impending terror attack or staged false flag during Sunday’s game?
The Sum of All Fears
In the 2002 Hollywood film Sum of All Fears starring Ben Affleck and Morgan Freeman, “CIA analyst Jack Ryan must stop the plans of a Neo-Nazis faction that threatens to induce a catastrophic conflict between the United States and Russia’s newly elected president by detonating a nuclear weapon at a football game in Baltimore.”
Remember this?

To top it all off, if that’s not enough, CNN is planning to cover Sunday’s game live for the first time ever in the agency’s broadcast history.
This is a major red flag people!
Potential bioterror threat
The following Minnesota Depart Ment of Health document was submitted by an Intellihub reader Sunday afternoon. (Please follow @BasedBasterd on Twitter)
Former Intelligence analyst speaks about potential terror threat to Super Bowl LII
A former intelligence analyst, known only as Zach, talks about the threat on The Alex Jones Show.
Zach was taken in and questioned by the FBI just days after he called into The Alex Jones Show on Oct. 31, 2017, and confirmed Intellihub Founder and Editor-In-Chief Shepard Ambellas’ report which presented the theory that the 1 Oct. Las Vegas massacre was conducted via a helicopter air assault. Zach confirmed Ambellas’ analysis was “spot on.”

During the broadcast, Zach also mentioned that the deep state-backed Saudi Arabian-based private military company ETS Risk Management was “on the ground” on the night of the shooting.
A train carrying members of Congress to a Republican retreat in West Virginia slammed into a dump truck on Wednesday, throwing lawmakers from their seats and leaving at least one person dead, officials said.
Minor injuries were reported by those on board. The White House confirmed in a statement that there was one “fatality” and one serious injury; lawmakers said this involved those in the truck, which may have been stuck on the tracks when it was hit.
There are mixed reports over whether the train actually derailed. Lawmakers on the train quickly flooded social media with images of the wrecked truck, as well as damage to the crumpled front of the train.
Human leather products start at $14,000 USD, website says — ‘Everything is handcrafted’
(INTELLIHUB) — Extremely discerning clientele can now purchase their own one-of-a-kind ‘human leather’ products such as wallets, belts, and shoes online but prices start at $14,000 USD, according to the company which handcrafts the items out of the ‘finest leather known.’
That’s right, you can now order your very own wallet or belt made from a previously living human being despite the fact that human leather, much like certain fur, is illegal.
The company/website “HumanLeather.co.uk” boasts about their “exclusive real human leather products” online.
Welcome to ][umanLeather. We are specialists in producing exquisite and exclusive products for an extremely discerning clientele. All products are carefully hand-crafted by experienced master craftsmen, with years of experience in handling the finest leather known – human leather.
We only craft the best and most beautiful products out of our unique leather. We have produced bespoke items for some of our clients, but due to the limited size of the lengths that we work with, we are limited to what items we can fashion out of the leather.
We cater to a small but highly discerning clientele. They are amongst those lucky few who have everything they could possibly desire. Our supply is restricted and we prefer to keep it that way as we are the only firm in the world that crafts these special products.
The company even requires secret payment arrangements to be made for new clientele due to the nature of the sale.
We will give you details on how to pay if you become a client of ours. We can go through what can be made with the material we have at the time and we ask for full payment in advance. Till date, we have never had an article returned due to defects, and we aim to retain this unblemished record.
So my question is, did the people the products are actually made of donate their bodies to the company or is something more sinister taking place?

(INTELLIHUB) — The Chinese space station Tiangong-1 may come crashing down to Earth in the next week along with fireballs and a large swath of the planet is in the crosshairs.
Intellihub founder Shepard Ambellas gave the grim news on his radio show Tuesday, when he told the audience about the threat to human life.
“This Tiangong-1 is expected to crash into the Earth this week,” Ambellas said “It can reenter Earths atmosphere anywhere between 43°N longitude to 43°S longitude.”
You can listen to the entire broadcast about the falling space station here.

(INTELLIHUB) — While tensions with North Korea remain at an all-time high, Alexa, of all things, was captured on video last Monday saying that the bombing of Hiroshima would occur in less than 70-days.
“How many days has it been since the bombing of Hiroshima?,” the user of the all-knowing Internet-connected device asked aloud before garnering an ominous answer from the outspoken circular-shaped machine.
“This might answer your question,” Alexa said. “The bombing is in 69-days, May 25th, 2018.”
Dovetailing with Alexa’s astonishingly grim prediction, former U.S. President Barack Obama visited Japan Sunday, where he warned that North Korea poses a “real threat.”
‘North Korea is a real threat and poses a significant threat not just to the region but to the whole world’, Obama said during his speech in Tokyo.
Newly leaked undercover footage of Twitter engineers and employees reveals Twitter is acting like Big Brother, reading your DMs, creating ‘virtual profiles’
(INTELLIHUB) — Project Veritas has released undercover footage of Twitter employees and engineers admitting that the social media giant is building ‘virtual profiles’ on users by reading their direct messages and viewing private pictures.
The bombshell footage exposes four current Twitter software engineers: Conrado Miranda, Clay Haynes, Pranay Singh, and Mihai Alexandru Florea.
There is a 1-in-10,000 chance the space station will hit a densely populated area when it comes crashing down sometime in March, experts warn
(INTELLIHUB) — A massive 19,000-pound Chinese space station named Tiangong-1 is expected to come crashing back down to Earth sometime in March and has a 1-in-10,000 chance of hitting a densely populated area, experts warn.
The Chinese lost control of the space lab in 2016 and it has been adrift ever since in a continuously exponential kinetic decent.
ABC News reports: “Scientists have only been able to narrow the crash zone down to between the 43° North and 43° South latitudes; an area that still includes parts of every inhabited continent on Earth.”
A highly-toxic propellant is on board.

An outfit that monitors incoming ionization trails into Earth’s atmosphere warns something massive slowly entered Earth’s atmosphere last night
(INTELLIHUB) — A massive object entered Earth’s atmosphere on the night of Dec. 2 and it was not a meteor, says the “BPEarthWatch” YouTube channel.
BPEarthWatch is known for monitoring incoming meteor radar data in real-time and generally does pretty good at delivering the facts.
When meteors or objects hit our upper atmosphere they are picked up as an ionization trail which then can be converted to tangible data.
BPEarthWatch maintains that last night’s signal did not contain what is known as “Sporadic E,” a false signal which can only found during the summer months.
“What you saw earlier was very different. Something was coming in and it was very large and took a long time to come in,” the channel’s operator explained. “Something was not normal. I’m not sure what it was. […] There are no meteors that are that large that would come into the Earth with a signal that would last that long.”
Some speculate the radar echo may have been a “rocket launch” or a “UFO.”
Here is the actual data which came in on Saturday night:

(INTELLIHUB) — Fire Captain John Lord speaks out about the recent California wildfires and explains how the fires could not have been created naturally.
The fires spread to over 16 locations and even crossed an eight-lane highway before burning down an entire Kmart store in just hours. Cars were found melted. Houses were found “dustified.”

(INTELLIHUB) — For the next few days, the U.S. Air Force Reserve’s 910th Airlift Wing will be spraying the Houston area with the deadly insecticide Dibrom using a modified C-130 cargo-conversion aircraft equipped with sprayers.
The operation which started on Thursday is aimed at stopping the spread of mosquitoes and disease following standing floodwater which was carried in by the Category 4 Hurricane Harvey.
Harris County Public Health (HCPH) recommends that anyone concerned about exposure to the nerve agent should stay indoors for the next few days until the spraying subsides.
(INTELLIHUB) — Texas cities like Austin and Dallas are now starting to experience what people are dubbing a ‘gas shortage’ with long lines and in some cases dry pumps.
Although the shortages are most-likely being caused from the storm’s crippling of critical oil refineries, some are not so sure and feel that the crisis may be orchestrated. Either way the result is the same — long lines at the pumps and no gas at some stations altogether.
In Austin today there were long lines at Riverside Chevron on S. Congress Ave. where gas is expected to run out completely by nightfall.
Intellihub’s Shepard Ambellas tweeted: #Gasshortage in #Austin.”
The largest asteroid in more than a century will whiz safely past Earth on September 1 at a safe but unusually close distance of about 4.4 million miles (7 million kilometers), NASA said.
The asteroid was discovered in 1981, and is named Florence after the famed 19th century founder of modern nursing, Florence Nightingale.
“Florence is the largest asteroid to pass this close to our planet since the first near-Earth asteroid was discovered over a century ago,” said a US space agency statement.
It is one of the biggest asteroids in the Earth’s vicinity, and measures about 2.7 miles (4.4 kilometers) wide—or about the size of 30 Egyptian pyramids stuck together.
The organizer of the deadly Charlottesville ‘Unite the Right’ protest has been ousted as a professional provocateur who also organized Occupy Wall Street
A troll is a troll is a troll. As the Free Thought Project has been pointing out recently, there is a deliberate divide being pushed in America right now and its effects are as violent as they are powerful. According to recent revelations backed up by a report out of the Southern Poverty Law Center, at least one of those helping to organize and push this divide is a self-proclaimed professional provocateur who allegedly supported Obama and the Occupy movement before doing an about face to white nationalism.
The organizer of the massively Pro-Trump ‘Unite the Right’ march on Saturday in Charlottesville, Jason Kessler reportedly happened to also be an Obama supporter in the days of Occupy — and as recently as 2016. According to an archived post from his blog, he also has no problem openly bragging about being a professional provocateur.
Rumors abound on white nationalist forums that Kessler’s ideological pedigree before 2016 was less than pure and seem to point to involvement in the Occupy movement and past support for President Obama.
At one recent speech in favor of Charlottesville’s status as a sanctuary city, Kessler live-streamed himself as an attendee questioned him and apologized for an undisclosed spat during Kessler’s apparent involvement with Occupy. Kessler appeared visibly perturbed by the woman’s presence and reminders of their past association.
Kessler himself has placed his “red-pilling” around December of 2013 when a PR executive was publicly excoriated for a tasteless Twitter joke about AIDS in Africa.
Regarding the incident, Kessler stated “… so it was just a little race joke, nothing that big of a deal, she didn’t have that many followers, she probably didn’t think anybody was gonna see it,”
Regardless of Kessler’s past politics, the rightward shift in his views was first put on display in November, 2016 when his tirade against Wes Bellamy began.
The Free Thought Project spoke with the person behind the website Altrightexposed.com who shared some particularly damning statements from Kessler, which are archived.
Kessler said that “large scale attacks” are “somewhat of a blessing in disguise”:
“We get so caught up in the emotion of the violence that we don’t consider the long-term, historical consequences. To put it bluntly: the planet is overpopulated already. Maybe we shouldn’t try to cure every disease, we shouldn’t confiscate all the harmful drugs, etc. Perhaps we’d be happier if we made peace with the fact that rabid animals are going to dwindle the herd from time to time (as they have in much greater volume throughout history) & that’s not really a bad thing in the long run. Should we try to stop as many large scale attacks as possible? Of course… but I don’t think the zeitgeist should have an aneurysm every time one occurs either. I think we be served to draw some historical perspective on how difficult the human condition has always been & how that is something of a blessing in disguise.”
Adding fuel to the suspicion surrounding Kessler’s role as a professional provocateur, when the alleged former Occupier turned Alt-Righter attempted to hold a press conference on Sunday, he was shouted down by leftists. Of course, nothing is suspicious about that — except for the fact that police then surrounded him as if he was the president and escorted him away to safety.
Given the fact that cops allowed the white supremacists clash with Antifa all day on Saturday — without stopping any of it — Kessler’s special treatment certainly raises an eyebrow.
Protesters chased Jason Kessler away from his own press conference in Charlottesville. Here"s my view: pic.twitter.com/fTXctHgzsi
As ibankcoin notes, internet sleuths discovered a CNN report on Occupy Wall St. from five years ago submitted by “CNN Assignment Editor Jason Kessler.” Same guy?
Even more suspicious is that Lee Stranahan, a former reporter for the HuffPo, Daily Kos, and Breitbart, has pointed out the Neo-Nazi connections between the Obama administration and the Ukraine which could tie all this together.
As the Free Thought Project pointed out yesterday, the Ukrainian neo-Nazis were largely funded by the United States government. With the support of Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Joe Biden, et al the US helped to overthrow their legitimately elected government and installed a US-backed neo-Nazi regime.
As TFTP noted, a detailed academic investigation by Ivan Katchanovski reveals that these events were actually a false flag operation, which was planned and operationalized with the intent of overthrowing the Yanukovych government by an alliance of ultra-nationalist organizations, such as Right Sector and Svoboda, and oligarchic parties, specifically Fatherland.
Those who are paying attention are fully aware of the United States government’s propensity to overthrow democratically elected leaders and install brutal dictators in nation states that refuse to cave to their policy.
Given their track record abroad, it would not be surprising if the shadow government — who has already toppled governments and left death and destruction in their wake — employ these same tactics domestically to bring about a new level of police state control.
Although Kessler has tried to purge his blog of any writings that might prove embarrassing to his new found friends in the “alt-right”, a trip to the Internet Wayback Machine at archive.org is quite revealing.
A list of quotes is compiled at the link below: (WITH SOURCES AND LINKS)
Earlier this week it was revealed that a high-level Republican Congressman told Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne that forces operating behind the scenes were actively putting together a plan to “suddenly” remove Trump from the Presidency.
And while impeachment or indictment have been on the table for Democrats and anti-Trumpers since the day after he was elected to the Office, Howard-Brown says this is not the case with the current plan. Noting that we should “read between the lines,” he hinted that the President’s removal could well come in the form of assassination.
“He said there is a plot on Capitol Hill to take the president out, I said you mean by impeachment or by indictment – he said no, to take him out, he will be removed suddenly from office,” said Howard-Browne, before adding, “you can read between the lines”.
But Trump isn’t the only target, as Alex Jones explains in a recent Infowars video report:
This is real… They’re in publications trying to get it ready… They’re not just going to kill Trump… And believe me, they’re going to try and kill him… they’re not going to haul him before a court in chains and turn him into a super hero… he’s going to be a big enough martyr already… They’re going to try and politically destroy… then kill him… then bring out horrible lies about him so he can’t defend himself… and then they’re going to go after all the opposition…
If they get Trump they’re going to get Ron Paul, they’re going to get Rand Paul, they’re going to get me, they’re going to get Matt Drudge, they’re going to get Sean Hannity, they’re going to get Rush Limbaugh…
…
They’re combined in this evil combination… this trifecta of the mainstream media, foreign corporations and the political class in this country that want to stay in control… you’ve got this evil combination… and all their minions that are useful idiots…
As for President Trump and his family, is there any doubt that nefarious forces who stand in opposition to his policies and vision for America would take the opportunity to end the movement he began if given the chance to do so?
He’s real folks… I can’t believe he has gotten this much done… they’re going to kill him… any day now… They’re going to blow him and his family up… they’re going to wait until they get the whole family together… they want them all… especially Donald, Jr.

A satellite is spiraling out of control and could head towards Earth, its operator has confirmed
Spacecraft construction company SES says it lost control of its satellite on June 17 and is now struggling locate it.
SES’s AMC-9 satellite, which was 36,000 kilometres above the Earth’s surface, began spiralling out of control following a “significant anomaly”.
The company, which bills itself as a provider of “reliable and secure satellite and ground communications solutions”, said the satellite began breaking apart in the last few days.
Many experts are now warning that the San Andreas fault in California is now ripe for a major earthquake. Not only that, but should it occur, another earthquake could strike the Bay Area resulting in damages that may be impossible to financially correct.
Although a major earthquake around 100 miles away from Los Angeles may not seem like a big deal, experts warn against taking a lackadaisical stance. A magnitude 8.2 earthquake is far from ordinary and there’s plenty of geological evidence of past occurrences in Southern California. New evidence foreshadows grave consequences for a hugely populated region that’s already on high alert for the next “Big One.” A study published earlier this year concluded that the land on either side of the San Andreas fault has been pushing against the other at a rate of more than 1 inch per year since 1857, and the tensions between the plates are eventually going to give out.
“So, you expect that amount of accumulation of energy will be released in the future in a large-magnitude rupture, somewhere along the San Andreas,” said USGS research geologist and study lead author Kate Scharer.
Seismologist Lucy Jones predicts that a San Andreas earthquake beginning at the Salton Sea could be as strong as an 8.2 if it got all the way to Paso Robles. That powerful of a quake could result in massive loss of life and damages. An 8.2 earthquake would produce far more energy than what was produced by the nuclear bomb dropped on Hiroshima. But the bigger issue is that all of Southern California would be hit at once. Yet, this isn’t new information. Ned Field of the US Geological Survey tried to warn Californians back in 2015 that a major quake is likely to occur, and soon.
“We think Southern California is locked and loaded, that the stresses have really built up, and when things start unleashing, they could unleash for years,” U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Ned Field told Smithsonian.com in 2015. The last major earthquake near Los Angeles hit Fort Tejon in 1857 and registered a 7.9, making the region long overdue, especially considering the amount of pressure built up on the fault line.
“With 300 miles of fault all going in the same earthquake, you then have everybody affected at the same time,” says Jones. “The San Andreas is the one that will produce the earthquake that’s going to cause damage in every city” in Southern California. However, “it’s not so much about dying in the earthquake. It’s about being miserable after the earthquake and people giving up on Southern California,” says Jones. Catastrophic damage to the region’s infrastructure could take more than a year to repair, which could in turn wreck the local economy and drive people to abandon Los Angeles in a mass exodus. But that still isn’t the worst part of newest predictions.
Not only could a major San Andreas earthquake damage most of Southern California’s cities, a quake could cause another to occur on the Hayward fault in the Bay Area.The Hayward fault which is considered the most likely to cause the next major earthquake could be set off by a quake along the San Andreas fault, Jones warned. The well-populated Bay Area would then also be in major distress in addition to Southern California, possibly elevating the number of victims to a staggering and incomprehensible number.
Emergency preparedness could be essential for those in California and for those who haven’t prepared for the natural disaster, now may be time to consider it. Although in all fairness, experts have been saying this fault line would cause a quake for years and it hasn’t yet. But logic and history do dictate that eventually, time will be up.
Eyewitness said Seth Rich was walking and not in pain when he was removed from the crime scene by police
WASHINGTON -- The corner Seth Rich was shot on (Via Google Street View)
WASHINGTON (INTELLIHUB) — An eyewitness who was at the scene when Seth Rich was shot on July 10, 2016, made a few shocking statements at a vigil for the late Democratic National Committee staffer.
“I was there when he [Seth Rich] got shot and uh they walked him past me so that I could see him and identify him because I knew him in the neighborhood — and the police officer said: ‘he didn’t even know he was shot’,” the eyewitness said.
The eyewitnesses testimony begins at 6:29 into the video.
