Augest 30 2026 These are some pictures that remind Me of some events I have been through and Nasa Needs to acknowledge what's going on also with what's Going on on Kentucky with Government, Family and Administration. For example I used to live in the house My Grandparents are standing by and it was rented to Me by someone else and I am being attacked since then. Two of My cousions also lived there periodically. I was told By My Grandparents years ahead of time that I would live there. My Grandfather had paperwork stolen for homes and businesses and that was one of them. I wrote about a tax service and a woman that appears in Jefferson County Kentucky Government and she was the Family of a neighbor to a home Close to blue lick road when the documents were stolen federal land tax will prove I'm correct. My Dad said his bookkeeper that he used when His Dad was alive rented the home to Me and our Wealth got stolen that was in the early Nineties.
