Editor’s Commentary: Imagine if someone was caught taking taxpayer funds meant for aid and using that money to buy luxury items. You don’t have to imagine it because we’re seeing it playing out in real time across the nation. It seems like every day we get new reports that people took Covid relief funds or other “aid” and used it to buy luxury cars, vacations, or other major purchases that should not be paid for by American taxpayers.
It tends to make the news because corporate media loves to highlight the corruption of individuals. Moreover, American readers love to hear when those who are stealing from us are brought to justice. But you won’t see the same attention paid to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky or any of his merry band of oligarchs. They’re taking U.S. taxpayer dollars and making the PPP scammers in America look like petty thieves. Corporate media doesn’t want to talk about it and most American taxpayers don’t want to hear it. Why? Because it reaffirms what many of us have been saying for years, that taxpayer dollars being sent as “aid” to Ukraine are not aiding the people at all. This is all a scam, arguably the largest foreign aid scam in American history, and that’s just too hard for Ukraine-flag-flyers to hear. With that said, here’s the report from SHTF Plan…
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reportedly purchased a luxury mansion in Egypt. The mansion was bought through his mother-in-law, likely to hide the sale from the public. There is also evidence showing that the ruler used Western war aid money given to Ukraine to buy the property.
This shouldn’t surprise anyone. This is what the masters do while they jack up inflation and impoverish the slave class in order to create dependence. We all had better stop believing in authority sooner rather than later or this is going to become a major problem for those who are not ruling over others.
Egyptian investigative journalist Mohammed Al-Alawi initially broke the news following major in-depth research. Al-Alawi also published interviews with sources familiar with the purchase of the luxurious mansion. He disclosed that the Zelensky family acquired a luxury property valued at around $5 million in the Egyptian city of El Gouna.
Al-Alawi also published documents that prove it was the Zelensky family that purchased the villa. Olga Kiyashko, Zelensky’s mother-in-law, was the one who actually purchased the property for $4.85 million on May 16th. Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska is the daughter of Kiyashko.
According to analysts, the money Kiyashko used to purchase the property appears to come from Western financial aid packages given to Kyiv. Ukraine has been involved in a war with Russia since February 2022, with many Western nations giving assistance in different forms – be it money or military equipment. –Natural News
Egyptian political scientist Abdulrahman Alabbassy criticized Zelensky and his relatives for spending fortunes amassed by Western war aid on personal luxuries instead of using Ukraine’s donated riches for military and humanitarian purposes.
“I am surprised that relatives of top Ukrainian officials began to buy luxury real estate after the start of [the Russia-Ukraine war]. I don’t remember anything like this before,” he said. Alabbassy expressed certainty that Kiyashko’s property purchase in El Gouna “is the result of corruption and the theft of humanitarian aid to Ukraine.”
No kidding. All rulers are corrupt and Zelensky is no exception. The only option to stop this blatant distasteful behavior is to stop believing others have the right to rule. Government is slavery, and the first step to abolishing it is to stop believing in it.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
