Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg Becomes the 3rd Richest Man in The World.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is climbing Bloomberg's Billionaire Index , passing billionaires like Berkshire Hathaway chairman Warren Buffett and LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault, an update to the list published on May 21 shows.

The list now estimates Zuckerberg's net worth to be at $87.8 billion, while Arnault is valued at $81.1 billion and Buffett is valued at $68.9 billion.

One year ago, those rankings looked a bit different. Zuckerberg was valued at $72.5 billion as of May 22, 2019, while Arnault was valued at $89.6 billion and Buffett was valued at $83.5 billion, Bloomberg's data shows.

Even a month ago, both Buffett and Arnault would have placed higher than Zuckerberg. The Facebook CEO's net worth as of April 20 was $68.1 billion, according to Bloomberg, while Buffett's was $74.3 billion and Arnault's was $80.2 billion.

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Microsoft co-founder and philanthropist Bill Gates top the list at number one and number two respectively.

Zuckerberg's rise on the list comes after Facebook reported better-than-expected financials and surging users during its first-quarter earnings report on April 29. Facebook added as much as $44 billion in market value in the morning following its earnings report.

The company also recently made a big move into ecommerce by launching Shops , which enables businesses to create digital storefronts on Facebook. The social networking giant also launched a competitor to Zoom in April called Messenger Rooms, which lets users create 50-person chatrooms.

Zuckerberg still falls far behind Gates and Bezos on Bloomberg's list, but the gap isn't quite as large as it was almost one month ago when Bezos' net worth was estimated to be twice that of Zuckerberg's according to Bloomberg.

Reno Omokri claims these monumental structures in Western countries are "dedicated to satan" then shares biblical passages to back his claim

Reno Omokri shared photos of some structures built in Western countries and alleged that they are dedicated to satan. He then shared biblical passages to back his claim. He shared photos of structures in London, Rome, Washington D.C. and New York and said they are the "Asherah Pole, a pagan idol" which "God detests and warns believers to avoid". He wrotes: 1 Kings 16:33, 2 Kings 23:6, Deuteronomy 16:21, Exodus 34:13 and many other verses of Scripture instruct us that an Asherah Pole is a pagan idol God detests and warns believers to avoid. But what is an Asherah Pole? Google it and check the images that describe it. An Asherah Pole is simply a phallic pole dedicated to satan. Almost all major cities in the West have an Asherah Pole hidden in plain sight!? #TableShaker kk
