  1. Adults need to take responsibility for their actions. The 26-year-old man needs to be prosecuted for trespassing and causing the death of a priceless animal to the full extent of the law. The guy worked for a janitorial service cleaning company to clean the gift shop and offices. He hopped the security fence after the zoo was closed to get to the tiger enclosure.

  2. It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t want to be found. She was only found after she had developed dementia in her later years and let slip about some of the details about her past.

  3. It's amazing how quickly the Internet sleuths identified her so quickly or her coworkers saw her and couldn't wait to let the social media know what her name was and where she lived. In Orwell's 1984 book, its not the government who is watching the people, its the people themselves!

  4. It took the jury 3 hours, including an hour for lunch.

  5. He’s thinking WTF! Do I have to answer, the Americans elected him, not us.

  6. An armor vest transfers the force of the bullet from a single point to a wider area. Getting hit by a bullet feels like being hit in the chest with a baseball thrown by a pitcher‘s fast ball. If he was hit anywhere else he would know it; he was just trigger happy.

  7. Kharkiv the second largest city in Ukraine isn’t a major government center, but a university center which has no military installations in the center of the city. The strike on the administration building either shows how badly the Russian’s military forces are trained by widely missing their military target in daylight and hitting a non-military target or they are starting to use terror tactics on the civilian population.

  8. From Trump and Musk, our prayers and thoughts are with you, but not federal government money, you’re on your own!

  9. The Ukrainians are traveling for hours to reach Poland, which is a member of NATO, and they know that Poland will protect them against Russian aggression. The Ukrainians will long remember the Polish people’s friendship.
    173
  10. The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) entered into force on July 1, 2020, which Trump signed allowing agreement on trade and tariffs between the three countries. Trump broke the USMCA he previously signed during his first term; countries can’t believe any agreement that Trump signs.

  11. Truck driver survival rule: Whenever you are crossing a rickety old bridge, leave your window down in case you have to swim out of it to save your life.

  12. I wonder if they gave the cop a sobriety field test or a breath test?

  13. Patients with acute radiation syndrome (ARS) classically go through four clinical phases: prodrome, latency, manifest illness, and either recovery or death. During the prodromal phase, they usually present with nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and even loss of consciousness at higher doses. With neurological symptoms like dizziness, headache, or decreased level of consciousness, occurring within minutes to a few hours, with an absence of vomiting, and is almost always fatal, even with aggressive intensive care. Most people who die from radiation sickness are killed by infections or internal bleeding. Dying from ARS is a terrible way to die. The Russian military’s contaminated equipment, vehicles, and soldiers will cause problems to neighboring Belarus, since the Russian troops are withdrawing through Belarus. Most modern armies have been training for NBC (Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical) warfare decontamination situations. In a military nuclear decontamination cleaning station, it is assumed that a tactical nuclear weapon was used containing either Uranium or Plutonium that would produce limited battlefield contamination. The Chernobyl reactor disaster generated a multitude of radioactive isotopes of different elements from the reactor that had spread across the ground. Hiroshima and Nagasaki radiation contamination was cleaned up that used either Uranium or Plutonium, whereas the Chernobyl area had to be abandon. Parts of Belarus might have to be abandoned and isolated due to the Russian contaminated vehicles and equipment.

  14. The 4th Amendment protects individuals from unlawful searches and seizures. The police can’t search you, your house, or your vehicle without a warrant or probable cause that a felony crime is being committed. The office had a right to question the driver because his vehicle matched the vehicle with the stolen plates. When he opened the vehicle door and tried to get the driver out of vehicle and fired at the driver, he violated the 4th Amendment and assaulted the driver.

  15. John Durham’s 300 page report given to numerous GOP congressional lawmakers had one undeniable conclusion; a lot of trees were killed for nothing to make the report.
    136
  16. Beware a woman scorned. She thought that it wouldn’t be lady like to “Moon” Trump, so did the next best thing . She dominated Trump without force.
    130
  17. It’s a fact that Trump has a hard time obtaining competent lawyers. It’s a fact that Trump’s lawyers failed to request a civil jury trial instead of an automatic civil bench trial with only the judge determining the case. It’s a fact that Trump and his lawyers are bad mouthing the judge that will determine the amount of penalties.

  18. Ontario’s Premier has the authority to charge a 25% surcharge on the price the US buys electricity or completely shut off the electricity since the power grid is owned by the province and not by a company.
    109
  19. The risks you take when travelling in the rural areas of a poor country as a tourist and going off the regular tourist route trying to seek adventure.
    108
  20. Under the old USSR, ethnic Russian enclaves where established in conquered areas to cause disunity with the local population against the USSR’s central government. These old USSR ethnic Russian enclaves are where the political disruptions are being generated. Russia can occupy small areas of ethnic Russian speaking enclaves in Ukraine near the boarder on the East and the South. But, not the whole country since the rest of Ukraine speaks Ukrainian and are not ethnic Russians. When the USSR fell, all the former ethnic non-Russian members left Russia and formed their own ethnic country. Looks like Russia wants to reclaim the old USSR lands.
    99
  21. It’s poetic justice that some of the same crazy Trump supporters that yelled “LOCK HER UP!”, are now locked up in jail, waiting for their court appearance in US DC Federal Court for crimes against the government.
    89
  22. Out of court settlement means that what she said was true, otherwise the lawsuit would have been withdrawn.
    84
  23. Either way the attorneys for both the defendants and plaintive gets paid, win or lose; it’s happy hour time for the lawyers.

  24. An adult assaulting children should be charged to the full extent of the law!
    79
  25. Abraham Lincoln would be rolling over in his grave on how far the GOP has sunk because of Trump
    76
  26. Currently US Federal Prosecutors have a 95% conviction rate either by guilty plea or jury guilty verdict because of their due diligence in obtaining evidence before filing any charges.
    73
  27. Even the dog knew it was wrong! The dog was running to the standing Ohio state troops because it assume they were dangerous and ran right by the kneeling black man until his handler called him back to attack the kneeling black man.
    72
  28. From Trump and Musk, you should have bought flood insurance, you’re on your own!
    69
  29. It’s hard to imagine how far down the US industry has fallen. Years ago, the big US auto manufactures tried to ban Japanese cars in the US. Then they tried to ban Japanese cars from being built in the US. Now the big US auto manufactures have joint ventures to design and build cars with Japanese auto manufactures but keeping their own brand names but are essential a mix of US and Japanese cars. Now the US Steel industries, who did the same thing for years, want to merge with Nippon Steel.

  30. The victim’s family attorney will file on the judge’s overturned ruling as a case of judicial misconduct with the courts to have the judge’s ruling thrown out base on judicial prejudice using the court transcript. Update: The judge has been removed from the criminal court docket and assigned to small claims, legal matters, and probate dockets and other civil cases, effective immediately pending further review of his actions in criminal court.

  31. @A Yoga Diary To travel from Pennsylvania to Puerto Rico and having dementia isn't very likely or living for over thirty years in Puerto Rico under the radar isn't very likely. They found her after more than 30 years in Puerto Rico when she started to develop dementia.
    64
  32. Why run dude, all they could have charged you if you stayed for the cops would be reckless driving and damage to private property now it’s hit-and-run. You either used you own credit card at the rental place or used a stolen card, which adds identity theft.
    60
  33. Russian "Gaslighting". Psychologists use the term “gaslighting” to refer to a specific type of manipulation where the manipulator is trying to get someone else (or a group of people) to question their own reality, memory or perceptions.

  35. Democratic countries have a right to chose and not have a dictatorial country ban them from choosing who they wish to associate with.
    53
  36. Japan is an island nation with limited resources. Nippon Steel manufactures steel by importing iron ore and fuel mostly from other countries by ocean going ships yet are still competitive in the world market. US Steel uses domestic iron ore and coal transported domestically by railroads from other states and sells their products mostly in the US with US government tax incentives, yet they are going bankrupt. Something isn’t working with this picture.

  37. What did they expect? Chris Licht was an entertainment producer with no journalism experience ruining a news network. He wanting to turn CNN into an entertainment network with less news.
    50
  38. The Russian warship Ivanovets when down so fast! In the last video scene you can see the ship's bow sticking up 90 degrees in the air. Early reports says there were no survivors rescued in the freezing sea.
    50
  39. You can see the large amount of secondary explosions and ammunition going off shooting into the night sky. The Ukrainian military definitely had hit a Russian ammunition depot, unlike the Russian military when they hit a civilian shopping mall saying it was storing Ukrainian ammunition with civilians walking around the shopping mall.
    50
  40. At the father’s age of 54 years old, both father and son will be serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole.

  41. The moose antlers must have itch like crazy during the shed and he was frustrated he couldn't scratch that itch and just shook all over.

  42. 4th Amendment; “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” The police had no probable cause to handcuff and detain the pastor on private property. The pastor should sue for violation of his 4th Amendment rights.
    47
  43. The US 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has a reversal rate of about 8.9%. To have the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals reverse two of Trump‘s recently appointed Federal Judge Cannon’s case involving Trump is definitely two “Black Mark” on Judge Cannon’s record.
    46
  44. When entering a “Roundabout” you look for traffic on your left and go around until you exist. In a four way stop, you have to look left and right before entering. It saves time and opens up your field of view because it’s flat and open field. And the circle makes you go slower because of the centrifugal force; whereas a four way stop you can hit the gas going straight through the intersection.
    45
  45. Trump's reply to clogged Presidential papers in the toilet; "It was Covid-19, I ran out of toilet paper."
    44
  46. Other news outlets said that the renovation work on the bridge was given to a local electrical appliance company and that the young people on the bridge was trying to sway the bridge side to side before it gave way and snapped the cables.
    43
  47. With all of the real missing persons case happening in Houston, the HPD kept an open file for 8 years with a person they say they knew wasn't missing with known facts about the case? How many hours did they waste?
    42
  48. If you criminally indict company officials, it’s just some “Bad Apples” in the orchard. When you indict a whole company, the whole orchard is infected.
    42
  49. It’s amazing how greed can overcome common sense in people. A nineteen year old college dropout without prior medical experience comes up with a revolutionary blood testing unit that’s smaller than a suitcase to do testing that took a whole laboratory to do. It’s like a fraudster selling the “Brooklyn Bridge” to rich stupid people.
    42
  50. WTF! Why would a Florida couple fake a COVID-19 vaccination card to vacation in Hawaii??? This must be the most stupid couple in the world!!
    41
  51. “Trump packs influential Atlanta court with conservative judges..." 6 July 2018 The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The US 11th Circuit of Appeals is one of the most conservative, and they rejected Mark Meadows' appeal.
    41
  52. For Fox News "when it rains it pours". There are other lawsuits Fox is fighting against. The other plaintiffs are smelling the blood in the water. You know it's very bad when the plaintiff can publicly tell how much they got in their lawsuit instead of having to say they got an undisclosed amount.
    41
  53. Rudy Giuliani needs some jail time for contempt for his actions along with another money lawsuit.
    40
  54. With all the music lawsuits against Trump for the unauthorized use of music at his rally, the only music and songs he’ll be using is either Ted Nugent, Kanye West or Kid Rock songs or music in the free domain like “Bozo the Clown” or “The Happy Birthday” music.
    39
  55. Trump said that Obama was playing golf while there where two people in the US who had contacted the Ebola virus when he was running for president. He said that he would be too busy to play golf if he were elected president. I guess he has a lot of free time on his hands since the Covid-19 virus isn't a big deal to him since he is tested daily for the virus.
    37
  56. It's like a war zone at night in the city. People in fancy model cars do not stop at traffic lights in fear of being hijacked and robbed, you must continue moving as fast as you can avoiding people trying to get close to your car.
    37
  57. Of course she wants other people to pay! Trump says the same thing about using other people's money for himself. And besides, Lara gets more money in Trump's Will by using other people's money!
    37
  58. Putin’s warning to the US and NATO is analogous to a heavy weight boxer with a glass jaw being mauled by a bantam weight boxer and getting punch drunk in the ring. Even with a glass jaw, the heavy weight still has a devastating right cross and could still get a lucky punch in.
    37
  59. The private jet appears to have been flying on autopilot with the pilot having inputted the flight waypoints to his destination; that accounts for the slight dog-leg in the flight. He also appears to have programmed the Flight Management Computer (FMC) to turn toward his assumed landing runway to intercept the Instrument Landing System (ISL) heading to intercept the signal. That final heading to intercept the ILS signal to land on the runway heading was the last program in the FMC accounting for the straight line return heading.

  60. No one said you had to be smart to be a singer, just have a good voice.
    36
  61. Elon Musk's idea of "Free Speech" is whatever I say it is.
    35
  62. Trump caught on a tape recording admitting having classified documents and knowing that it was illegal is hilarious. His aides who were recoding can also be heard laughing and saying they have a problem now. It’s like the “Stupid Criminal” videos you see on You Tube recording their crime for posterity for the entire world to see.
    34
  63. Immunity is protection from criminal actions that a jury would otherwise have to determine guilty or not guilty. Immunity is given by prosecutors to obtain evidence against another person for a much larger crime. Trump doesn’t want immunity, he wants a “get out of prison card”.
    32
  64. "Ukraine says around 400 Russian soldiers have died in a missile attack on the occupied Donetsk region...the victims were mainly mobilised troops...ammunition was stored in the same building as the soldiers, making the damage worse..."Almost all of the military equipment was also destroyed, which stood right next to the building without any disguise whatsoever,"..." 2 Jan 2023 BBC. A HIMARS attack on an ammunition depot that also housed the Russian mobilised troops with their un-camouflage armored vehicles parked right next to the building.
    32
  65. A £14 million super yacht sank taking on water during a waterspout. The super yacht must have been anchored with two anchors, one at the bow and one at the stern. Modern super yachts are built for pleasure and not for rough sea. With a bow and stern anchor, the yacht couldn’t swing away from the wind and like most pleasure yachts she has a low stern with sliding glass doors allowing the waves to enter the cabin.
    32
  66. “Donald Trump Faces Travel Ban To 37 Countries..." 31 May 2024 Newsweek. Trump can’t visit his golf course in Scotland, but he can visit his buddy Putin in Russia!
    31
  67. It’s turning into a nightmare situation for the Russian military if the war turns into a non-conventional warfare, a Guerrilla war. Every civilian could be a “Freedom Fighter” hiding and waiting for an opportunity to strike against you. The Russian military will be viewed as an enemy occupation force, having to subdue a large population under harsh treatment to keep their own casualties low against opponents that wears civilian clothing, and are not in military uniform. The Russians might control territories, but they will not be able to control the population if they people doesn't want them in their country.
    31
  68. The Russian tourists in the Crimean Peninsular were told if they want to return to Russia they would have to drive through the combat zone along the Sea of Azov north to the land bridge back to Russia; a fun summer holiday.

  69. The one silver lining is Hurricane Milton only passed over Florida west to east, instead of going up the east coast into other states already hit by Hurricane Helene.
    29
  70. The priest got tired of turning the other cheek!
    29
  71. The Western anti-tank missile the Russian was showing, was a MBT NLAW a joint British and Swedish light main battle anti-tank missile. It’s lightweight and an aim, fire and forget weapon that‘s self-gilded.
    29
  72. "The ex-Defense Department employee sentenced Thursday, Asia Janay Lavarello, was on a temporary assignment at the US Embassy in Manilla when she took classified documents from the embassy to her hotel room...Lavarello was working on a classified thesis at the time...The documents she took home were three other classified theses.." 11 Feb 2022 CNN. She was using the three other classified theses for her own classified theses. She got 3 months in a federal prison for taking 3 classified documents to her hotel room overnight. The law is for everyone, including the GOP.
    28
  73. Kharkiv the second largest city in Ukraine isn’t a major government center, but a university center which has no military installations in the center of the city. The strike on the administration building either shown how badly the Russian’s military forces are trained by widely missing their military target in daylight and hitting a non-military target or they are starting to use terror tactics on the civilian population.
    28
  74. The guy was just like Trump and thought he was a “very stable genius”!
    28
  75. “China agrees in UN vote that Russia is an "aggressor”...Kazakhstan and all other post-Soviet republics except Tajikistan and Uzbekistan (which abstained), as well as countries that the Russian authorities call “friendly,” voted in favor of the document. These include India, Brazil, and Turkey...A total of 122 countries were in favor..."2 May 2023 Georgia Today.
    26
  76. Apologies are not enough! Whoever authorized this should be suspended without pay and demoted in rank for their poor judgment!
    25
  77. Sounds like the same reason he retired early out of the Navy, his bad temper and bullying his subordinates. All he had to do was show his medical ID card. The cops only had his word that he was a doctor. Some of the people at the rodeo said that he had been drinking.
    24
  78. The GOP’s “Big Tent” allowing people with different opinions to be in the party has become the size of a drink umbrella served at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago cocktail drink.
    24
  79. Software has come along way; like an infant who first talks with only giving you yes or no answers, now it’s like having your college age child talking about their college dissertation on a subject that you can barely understand!
    24
  80. Trump once complained that he needed to flush 10-15 times; now we know he was talking about the Presidential papers kept floating up in the bowl.
    24
  81. If the US Appeals Court sides with the federal judge and agrees with the rulings, there is no legal conflict. The US Supreme Court could just accept the lower court ruling and not hear the appeal and let the lower court ruling stand. The US Supreme Court allowing the Appeals Court to rule first gives the US Supreme Court a way out.
    23
  82. The Russian conscripts’ barracks was an abandon technical college with large classrooms, parking lot and near cell towers for communications. The Ukrainians waited until the pings on the cell tower from all the conscripts calling home showed the technical school was heavy occupied. The HIMARS rockets hit the technical school about two minutes after midnight during the New Year’s celebration.
    22
  83. The three cops were on the private property illegally without any warrant and fired into the dwelling from outside and had no cause to fear any bodily harm by the suspect.
    22
  84. Trump’s former head of the Department of Energy was Rick Perry, the former Governor of Texas, in an interview he said that Texans would chose blackouts rather then regulate the Texas power grid. I guess the Texas motto is “Give me no Regulation or give me Death“. Rick was the same guy on Dancing with the Stars (he lost).
    22
  85. People think that using a fake name on the internet they will not be able to be traced. With today’s software analysis tools, decades old data is never gone from the electronic database. If these were lies, he would have sued for slander.
    22
  86. In typical Ted Cruz style to blame other people, he tries to throw his wife and two young daughters “Under the Bus!” saying that he had to escort his family down to Cancun.
    22
  87. Racial inequality has been going on for generations throughout the world. There are protests being held in other countries in support of the death of George Floyd. George Floyd died because of a power mad police officer who should not have been a police officer, we are now in the hands of a power mad President willing to use, in this words, heavily armed soldiers against civilians.
    21
  88. The Russian military had months to plan and they have military bases right next door in driving distance with supplies and equipment, yet they are being resisted by the Ukrainian citizens defending their country and they are stalled in long convoy lines. The Russians having airfields just across the border with their top of the line so called 5th generation fighter aircraft and the Ukrainians having only old Mig-29s and Su-27s, yet the air superiority over some areas of Ukraine is still not totally under Russian control and Russian combat aircraft are being shot down by the Ukrainians. Russia has a conscription army with only a one year service, making military training problematic. The Russians are sending their young poorly trained conscript soldiers into the Ukrainian "Meat Grinder". The young Russian conscript soldiers are encountering fierce Ukrainian resistance. There are unconfirmed Western Intelligence analysis of Russian military signals intercept that the long convoy lines and long delays are due to young Russian conscript soldiers sabotaging their vehicles engines and gas tanks to cause them to breakdown to avoid fighting. “Some Russian troops are surrendering or sabotaging vehicles rather than fighting, a Pentagon official says“… New York Times Mar 1, 2022

  89. I guess this is the modern day version of the Pentecostal church’s dancing with poisonous snake to show your devotion while a deadly virus is circulating around the whole world.
    21
  90. Since part of the ballistic missile debris was found, serial numbers could be used to establish manufacturing history and ownership. The location of the debris can be used to establish the ballistic trajectory, direction and missile firing location. Since a large part of the short-range ballistic missile body was intact, it appears to have been fired close by in the Russian occupied area, since the train station was far from the front lines. The United Nation has removed Russia from the UN Human Rights Council which requires a 2/3 majority vote, using classified intelligence information provided by the various world’s intelligence agencies. France, as a non NATO member, is providing their police to investigate Russian war crimes in Ukraine for the International Criminal Court at the Hague.
    21
  91. It happened in rural area where the Chinese building codes were shabby and the building would collapse quickly built with just mud bricks and no reinforcement to the buildings in a seismically active earthquake zone.
    21
  92. The types of weapons and equipment being talked about being supplied to Ukraine are very telling. Western anti-tank missile, that’s lightweight and an aim, fire and forget weapon that‘s self-guided. Man portable shoulder launched anti-aircraft missile for low flying helicopters and low flying fighter jets, along with body armor indicates this is becoming a Guerrilla war scenario with forces spread out and not concentrated. Large scale Ukrainian armored troop movement for counter attack requiring air superiority is not envisioning requiring battalion size air defense units. Localized pockets of air defense for layered defense of Ukrainian positions will be used to harass the Russian forces as they advances to bleed the Russian advance and make them pay for Ukrainian territory taken. It will become a war of attrition as casualties begin to mount.

  93. The guy was smart enough to keep his seat belt on while sleeping, while the guy he saw on the ceiling wasn't!

  96. A total of thirty-four individuals and three companies were indicted by Mueller's investigators. Eight have pleaded guilty to or been convicted of felonies, including five Trump associates and campaign officials. Durham lost 2 in court cases and one plead guilty to changing a single government email.
    20
  97. In the 1929 stock market crash steel production declined, construction was sluggish, automobile sales went down, and consumers were building up large debts. This time Trump’s tariff gave a sign a recession was coming, and the market reacted quickly by the sell-off of stocks before they became worthless.
    20
  98. Having to quarantine in Hawaii and stay indoors for the duration of your vacation if you test positive, would be torture. It would be like spending the big bucks to eat at a five star Michelin restaurant and then told because of the pandemic, you are only allowed to eat MREs after blowing all your money to get there.

  99. Republican‘s use of the word ethics; “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” Inigo Montoya from the Princess Bride movie.

  100. Trump is “Big Talk” and no details, he’s sounds like a child talking nonsense.

  101. The two videos released by the police shows NOTHING!

  102. The deputy pull the baby carrier out of the car after lifting the dead human trash off the baby and did CPR.
    18
  103. They were tightly packed together and when the first one trips and falls grabbing others nearby, panic starts as the weight of people starts piling down on them. Like drowning people grabbing others to stay above the water, the people at the bottom fights to get the weight of others off them. Soldiers in marching formation will keep a minimum distance when marching. The people were so close together that they couldn’t shift their feet for balance once someone lost their balance and added their weight to them, thus the “Domino” affect of falling.
    18
  104. The F-16s was given permission to go supersonic to catch up with the private jet because it had gone pass their normal incept area because it had never violated the restrictive air space flying at 34,000 feet. The F-16 had to take off and get up to 34,000 feet and chase down the private jet.

  105. She finally realized that she was going to prison if she didn't cut a deal with all of the evidence they had against her.

  106. "Russian combat deaths in the first year of its war on neighboring Ukraine have likely now exceeded the combined death toll of all of its wars since World War II, according to new research from the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)..." 21 Apr 2023 The HILL. Ukraine is where the Russians become "Cannon Fodder".

  107. Wild Turkeys are one of the most intelligent birds. Seeing them walk openly during the daylight hours down the sidewalk shows that they figured out they have no predators and are safe.
    17
  108. Two L.A. County deputies manages to turn a simple old couple stealing groceries at a supermarket into national news; police brutality, abuse of police powers, racial profiling, hunger in America, etc. When the cops put the handcuffs on the suspect, he says he’s being detained and not arrested. The cops legally can put you in handcuffs if you are a possible suspect and if you are a flight risk or a risk of being violent; it was an old black couple who looked like they could bare walk at a fast pace. In the body cam the cop never was heard telling the old lady she was being detained or handcuffed.
    17
  109. 5th Amendment against self-incrimination; ..."a witness may refuse to testify if doing so would have him or her self-incriminate, even if the criminal conduct in question is not related to the actual case..." Taking the 5th must be applied to every specific question that is asked and can not be used as a “Blanket Coverage” to cover all question asked. If he takes the 5th for a question that has no incrimination on his part or violation of law, he can be held in contempt or if Congress gives him limited immunity and he still refuses to answer.

And now the shear or slippage line is moving at a rate of 4 feet per month due to the increase in rainfall increases.

  115. It appears that the LAPD has poor weapons training. A long rifle has too much penetrating power to be fired indoors. In close quarters, the long barrel makes it harder to maneuver around. He should have used his service handgun to find the perpetrator. The officer fired his rifle before determining that he was being threaten or before determining what barriers where behind to contain the bullet before firing at the perpetrator. The body camera shown on another network shows the officer, I assume with an AR-15 type assault rifle, firing three rounds at the perpetrator. In the video, he didn’t identify himself as a police officer or yelling at the perpetrator to show his hands. He fired his AR-15 as soon as he saw the perpetrator.

  124. Fifty years ago the Israelis built the “Bar Lev Line” a set of fortification and a huge sand hill along the Suez Canal and put lookout posts to give them early warning of the Egyptians massing along the border. They thought that it would take the Egyptians days, if not weeks to penetrate the huge sand hill, giving them time. The Egyptians used high-pressure fire hose to liquefy the sand in a couple of hours and poured through. The Israelis used high-tech surveillance monitors to monitor miles of fence line along the Gaza Strip; they thought they would see Hamas massing along the fence line and would have time to react. Hamas used drones to drop grenades on top of the towers with the high-tech monitors and used construction equipment to destroy the fence; ATVs drove through the break and they flew powered gilders over the fence. Failure is often do to hubris, thinking the enemy isn’t going to adapt their tactics to the changing times.

To convict someone of aggravated perjury in Texas, the prosecutor must prove that the individual: (1.) with intent to deceive and (2.) with knowledge of the statement's meaning, (3.) made a false statement under oath, (4) that was required or authorized by law to be made under oath. Under Texas state law perjury is a Class “A” misdemeanor, which is punishable by up to a year in the county jail and a $4,000 fine. Aggravated perjury is a third-degree felony, which is punishable by 2 to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Looks like Alex Jones is going to lose a lot of money and spend time in a Texas State Penitentiary if he gets convicted with the aggravated perjury and not the Class “A“ misdemeanor.

The Russians having airfields just across the border with their top of the line so called 5th generation fighter aircraft and the Ukrainians having only old Mig-29s and Su-27s, yet the air superiority over some areas of Ukraine is still not totally under Russian control. Russia has a conscription army with only a one year service, making military training problematic.

Because the Moskva sank so quickly, it would appear that a majority of crew were injured or killed.

  151. The NATO pact in 2021 has 30 member countries who asked to join the alliance and had to be voted on by the members to join. At the height of the “Cold War” the Warsaw pact had 8 members who were forced to join by the former USSR. The very reason the former members of the USSR, who are now independent countries, ask to join the NATO alliance is being shown by Russia by their belligerence and aggression against an independent country. If Russia wanted to defuse the Ukrainian Russian separatist conflict in Ukraine, they could allow the ethnic Ukrainian Russians to move back into Russia if they don‘t want to live under Ukrainian rule. Russia has more then enough land in their country and doesn’t need to take lands from Ukraine. Democratic countries have a right to chose and not have a dictatorial country ban them from choosing who they wish to associate with. When the Ethiopian Jews were being persecuted in Ethiopia the Israelis didn’t send a so called “Peace” keeping force to attack the non-Jews in Ethiopia, they began airlifting out the Ethiopian Jews to Israel. Under the old USSR, ethnic Russian enclaves where established in conquered areas to cause disunity with the local population against the USSR’s central government. These old USSR ethnic Russian enclaves are where the political disruptions are being generated. Russia can occupy small areas of ethnic Russian speaking enclaves in Ukraine near the boarder on the East and the South. But, not the whole country since the rest of Ukraine speaks Ukrainian and are not ethnic Russians. When the USSR fell, all the former ethnic non-Russian members left Russia and formed their own ethnic country.

  180. The Russian military having to withdraw their forces against a smaller military force that is located right across their own border shows how weak the Russian army is. The Russian military was just using “Smoke and Mirrors” to disguise their total lack of leadership, modern military equipment, training, and fighting strength. The Russian military has been riddled with corruption, incompetence leadership, poor moral, poor maintenance, an undisciplined army with political nepotism for the General staff for years and used it‘s propaganda to boost it‘s image to the world using just “Smoke & Mirrors“.

The Russians are saying that it’s taking a pause in their attack to re-supply and replenish troops. It wouldn’t make sense starting an invasion without adequate fuel, munitions, and food for the invading troops and having to replenish supplies after two days of combat. The Russian military had months to plan and they have military bases right next door. The Russians are sending their young poorly trained conscript soldiers into the Ukrainian "Meat Grinder" all because of Putin, with no "End Game" to pull them out.

  204. On one had if it was an accident, it shows poor design, maintenance, training, and leadership. The Moskva was sailing in a storm and not in active firing mode, so there was a very slim chance for a fire to start in a weapon magazine. On the other hand, if the Ukrainian Neptune cruise missile, which was developed by Ukraine, struck the Moskva during a storm and the Moskva was unable to detect or defend it’s self, it shows badly on the Russian navy. If the Russian missile cruiser Moskva sinks by either an accidental fire in the ship’s magazine or by a hit by Ukraine’s Neptune cruise missile, which was developed by Ukraine, it’s a devastating blow to Russia.

  212. Trump’s Marie Antoinette moment (let them Eat Cake), taking time off from golfing to sign a useless piece of paper to appease this base by violating the US Constitution with powers he does not have.

  213. Practice relating to Rule 121 location of internment and Detention Centres of the Geneva Convention. Geneva Convention III…Article 23, first paragraph, of the 1949 Geneva Convention III provides: “No prisoner of war may at any time be sent to, or detained in areas where he may be exposed to the fire of the combat zone. “ Geneva Convention IV…Article 83, first paragraph, of the 1949 Geneva Convention IV provides: “The Detaining Power shall not set up places of internment in areas particularly exposed to the dangers of war.” Ukraine is right across the boarder from Russia and the POWs could be easily transported by truck. It appears that Putin created a “False Flag” scenario having a Ukrainian POW camp so close to the front line, violating the Geneva Convention on POW internment camps, and then shelling it and then blaming Ukraine. Putin had lied when he said he wouldn’t invade and lied when he said he wouldn’t bomb civilian areas; this is another lie from Putin.

  222. t looks like the helicopter had a tail rotor failure. The tail rotor acts as an anti-torque arm on the helicopter body to keep the helicopter from spinning uncontrollable due to the main rotor spinning. As soon as you lose tail rotor control you have to land before you start spinning like a top. The worst helicopter failure would be losing the main rotor; the second worst failure would be losing the tail rotor. A poor maintenance issue or mechanical failure due to stress.

  225. The news reported that the Moskva was sailing in a storm about 16 nautical miles from the Ukrainian coast. The Ukrainian military used their Bayraktar TB2 to monitor the area outside of radar detection. When the TB2 drone detected the Moskva in the storm, they used the drone’s location to target their Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles. The Neptune cruise missiles were flying on the deck and only went active target search mode at the drone location. The Moskva like most modern warship has a defensive weapons firing mode extending from the ship. The Close in Weapons System (CIWS) is a system that is automatic and computer controlled to react quicker than a human can react. Did the Moskva detect the TB2 drone? If it detected the drone why didn’t it shoot it down? Did the CIWS miss their hitting the Bayraktar drone and the Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles? If the Russian’s Black Sea flagship’s CIWS couldn’t protect itself, the rest of the fleet will have to go further away from shore. If it was an accidental fire in the weapon magazine, it shows poor design, maintenance, training, and leadership. The Moskva was sailing in a localized storm and not in active firing mode, so there was a very slim chance for a fire to start in a weapon magazine. Russian state own news stated that it “…sank as it was towed back to port we’re told in stormy weather following an explosion and a fire. Sky News 14 Apr 2022

  226. The Russian military had months to plan and they have military bases right next door in driving distance with supplies and equipment, yet they are being resisted by the Ukrainian citizens defending their country and they are stalled in long convoy lines. The Russians having airfields just across the border with their top of the line so called 5th generation fighter aircraft and the Ukrainians having only old Mig-29s and Su-27s, yet the air superiority over some areas of Ukraine is still not totally under Russian control and Russian combat aircraft are being shot down by the Ukrainians. Russia has a conscription army with only a one year service, making military training problematic. The Russians are sending their young poorly trained conscript soldiers into the Ukrainian "Meat Grinder". The young Russian conscript soldiers are encountering fierce Ukrainian resistance. There are unconfirmed Western Intelligence analysis of Russian military signals intercept that the long convoy lines and long delays are due to young Russian conscript soldiers sabotaging their vehicles engines and gas tanks to cause them to breakdown to avoid fighting. “Some Russian troops are surrendering or sabotaging vehicles rather than fighting, a Pentagon official says“… New York Times Mar 1, 2022

The typhoon hit Vietnam “…with wind speeds of up to 92mph reported…” it wasn’t a super hurricane; it met the minimum sustained wind speeds for the lowest category for hurricane or typhoon.

He would only hire small contractors and then pays them a fraction of the charge and say “Sue Me” because he had money to drag out the court case. Legally, this might not be a crime, but morally for a so called “Billionaire” to technically trick poor individuals out of their money is sickening; and he hasn't even given his own money.

The Russians are saying that it’s taking a pause in their attack to re-supply and replenish troops. It wouldn’t make sense starting an invasion without adequate fuel, munitions, and food for the invading troops and having to replenish supplies after two days of combat. The Russian military had months to plan and they have military bases right next door. The Russians are sending their young poorly trained conscript soldiers into the Ukrainian "Meat Grinder" all because of Putin, with no "End Game" to pull them out.

Nippon Steel had been selling their steel to China because of China’s construction boom with low transportation cost but is now selling to the US at a higher transportation cost. Of the top five, Japan and the US are not heavily supported by their governments. The US steel tariffs on Chinese steel kept them under check on dominating the steel market in the US.

  287. The NATO pact in 2021 has 30 member countries who asked to join the alliance and had to be voted on by the members to join. At the height of the “Cold War” the Warsaw pact had 8 members who were forced to join by the former USSR. The very reason the former members of the USSR, who are now independent countries, ask to join the NATO alliance is being shown by Russia by their belligerence and aggression against an independent country. If Russia wanted to defuse the Ukrainian Russian separatist conflict in Ukraine, they could allow the ethnic Ukrainian Russians to move back into Russia if they don‘t want to live under Ukrainian rule. Russia has more then enough land in their country and doesn’t need to take lands from Ukraine. Democratic countries have a right to chose and not have a dictatorial country ban them from choosing who they wish to associate with. When the Ethiopian Jews were being persecuted in Ethiopia the Israelis didn’t send a so called “Peace” keeping force to attack the non-Jews in Ethiopia, they began airlifting out the Ethiopian Jews to Israel. Under the old USSR, ethnic Russian enclaves where established in conquered areas to cause disunity with the local population against the USSR’s central government. These old USSR ethnic Russian enclaves are where the political disruptions are being generated. Russia can occupy small areas of ethnic Russian speaking enclaves in Ukraine near the boarder on the East and the South. But, not the whole country since the rest of Ukraine speaks Ukrainian and are not ethnic Russians. When the USSR fell, all the former ethnic non-Russian members left Russia and formed their own ethnic country.

  309. Most of the unexploded munitions removed appear to be tank ammunition. The Russian “T” series tanks, 72s, 80s, and 90s have autoloaders and only three crewmen; this gives the Russian tanks a low silhouette. One of the drawback is the tank ammo is stored in the crew compartment, unlike Western tanks with separate ammo compartment with a blowout panel to protect the tank crew. The Iraqis learn the hard way during Desert Storm when their Russian T-72s tank turret blew up and throwing some unexploded munitions around the tank in the desert after being hit by Western tank fire. The Russians appear to fix the problem with their new A-14 Armada tank, which they only have built it in very small numbers because of the cost per tank. The Russians have a habit of using their old outdated equipment no matter what, since they built a foolish amount of them to stockpile and only cared about total numbers and not quality and not crew survival.

The Ukrainians are doing a diversional front into Russia to force the Russians to move troops and supplies away from the front lines in Eastern Ukraine.

In the big cities it’s hard to keep your distance from one another. My GOD! What are these people doing?

  341. The primary use of gas in Bulgaria and Poland is home heating, the weather is getting warmer and spring is in the air. Bulgaria and Poland has the support of the entire EU, while Russia only has China as a major economic trading partner. Russia is a “One Trick Pony” whose only asset is selling gas and no major industrial export to sell to other countries because of the economic sanctions. Putin’s only source of revenue is selling gas to the Western countries. Putin is so far behind the curve, both militarily and economically. Putin went after his smallest gas customers, instead of this largest gas customer, Germany who has been providing a lot more military weapons to Ukraine. Germany has a larger industrial base and uses a lot more gas for industry, this is his political stunt. If he goes after Germany, it will be an economic war of attrition and whose economy can withstand the onslaught of economic losses. Russia signed a long term contact with what type of currency they would receive payment for the gas. Putin broke the contract and demand they pay in Rubles to help increase the value of the Ruble. Putin is trying to bypass the economic sanctions. He gets paid in Western currencies he can't buy thing with because of the sanctions, but still receives Western currencies for the gas per the contract. He wants to force the West to sell him items he wants and be paid in Rubles they will then pay for in Rubles for the gas.

  346. Looking at the videos on the Russian military equipment crossing from Russia into Ukraine, it doesn’t appear to be their top of the line forces.

The Russians having airfields just across the border with their top of the line so called 5th generation fighter aircraft and the Ukrainians having only old Mig-29s and Su-27s, yet the air superiority over some areas of Ukraine is still not totally under Russian control and Russian combat aircraft are being shot down by the Ukrainians. Russia has a conscription army with only a one year service, making military training problematic. The Russians are sending their young poorly trained conscript soldiers into the Ukrainian "Meat Grinder". The young Russian conscript soldiers are encountering fierce Ukrainian resistance. There are unconfirmed Western Intelligence analysis of Russian military signals intercept that the long convoy lines and long delays are due to young Russian conscript soldiers sabotaging their vehicles engines and gas tanks to cause them to breakdown to avoid fighting. “Some Russian troops are surrendering or sabotaging vehicles rather than fighting, a Pentagon official says“… New York Times Mar 1, 2022

If the US agrees to given F-16s to Ukraine the other two dozen countries with multiple squadrons of F-16 would have the “Green Light” to give some of their F-16s to Ukraine which could be in the hundreds.

  370. In just over 6 months, the Russian military has lost ten generals, an untold amount of senior field grade officers (majors and above) and countless junior officers. The Russian military organization relies heavily on the officer corps and less on the NCOs, since Russia micromanages their military from Putin on down the line to generals being required to be on the front lines giving orders on the front line because of the mistrust in the ranks; a holdover from the Soviet era of placing political commissar officers with the troops to make sure that their dictators orders were carried out. American intelligence estimated that the Russians have 75,000 killed and wounded out of an estimated 150,000 at the start of the invasion. The Ukrainian military is doing it surprisingly well with less troops using Western style military training they got after the 2014 invasion of Crimea.

A nineteen year old college dropout without prior medical experience comes up with a revolutionary blood testing unit that’s smaller than a suitcase to do testing that took a whole laboratory to do. It’s like a fraudster selling the “Brooklyn Bridge” to rich stupid people. She was the typical “Snake Oil Saleswomen”. The “Snake Oil” was sold as being able to cure every illness. The “Snake Oil” would taste terrible, but it contained a small amount of narcotic. The foul taste conformed to the buyer’s perception that medicine should taste bad, and the narcotic dulled his pain; so therefore it must be working. She assembled small units that had known blood testing devices installed that worked to a small degree, but they were not very accurate or were repeatable in their results. She used old white men with name recognition without any technical background to push her “Snake Oil” blood test units. She kept her technical staff isolated from each other, so no one could see the big picture; they just worked on small parts to assemble or program the device.

  396.  @momszycat4148  Trump has been using other people’s money for his own profit; he had used his charitable foundation as his own “Piggy Bank” and never donated any money to it. “Mr. Trump ran the foundation according to his whim, rather than the law,” New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood said in a 41-page lawsuit she filed against Trump, two of his children, Eric and Ivanka, and the Donald J. Trump Foundation in the Supreme Court of New York in Manhattan." The American flag flies on the oversized pole at Mar-a-Lago in 2006. (Palm Beach Daily News file photo) "When Trump in 2007 settled a $25 million lawsuit he filed against the town after it cited and fined him for erecting a flagpole at Mar-A-Lago that was nearly twice as high as allowed and doing so without a permit, he agreed to donate $100,000 to charity. He and town officials agreed the money would go to the Fisher House Foundation, which provides lodging for families of vets who are hospitalized...However, Underwood said, instead of dipping into personal funds or Mar-A-Lago’s accounts, Trump wrote a check to Fisher House using foundation money. A handwritten note, included in the lawsuit, shows Trump personally directed his accountant to take money from the foundation to settle the “flag issue in Palm Beach.” Trump keeps playing the same scams over and over, his daughter-in-law spent $2 million on a fundraising gala event at Mar-A-Lago for a dog rescue charity; I bet the dog rescue paid full price, and Trump will try to get a charitable donation deduction.

  397.  @donatass.4699  I was wrong about capsizing due to a two-point anchor. The captain of the Bayesian, James Cutfield 51, told Italian police that he wasn’t monitoring the weather closely and the ship’s retractable keel was raised, even with an anchor depth of 160 feet. Lowering the retractable keel would have added stability and made it harder to capsize.

It would be like a human pilot confronted with conditions not in his original mission in a changing war situation in combat and making a split second decision without orders.

  443. Western technology in the 1990’s could send a missile through a specific window, on a specific floor in a specific building in a specific city hundreds of miles away during the Gulf war in 1990; the Russian military needs a gigantic civilian shopping mall to hit any kind of target. There are a lot of Russian hackers posting saying that shopping mall was a military munitions depot. Just looking at the amount of damage, would indicate that it had no explosives stored in the mall by the amount of still standing light weight steel structures; if it was a military munitions depot, all that would be left is a huge hole in the ground. The shopping mall was an active mall with shoppers. No sane military would store munitions near civilians in a mall with shoppers walking around shopping. Any secondary explosions would be from gas utilities and chemicals normally found in a shopping mall exploding in a fire. If it was an ammunition explosion, un-exploded shells and bent ammunition casing would be seen by the independent news media.

  473.  @Fantomas-dj7xq  In less than 6 months, the Russian military has lost at least ten generals, an untold amount of senior field grade officers (majors and above) and countless junior officers. The Russian military organization relies heavily on the officer corps and less on the NCOs, since Russia micromanages their military from Putin on down the line to generals being required to be on the front lines giving orders on the front line because of the mistrust in the ranks; a holdover from the Soviet era of placing political commissar officers with the troops to make sure that their dictators orders were carried out. The Ukrainian military is fighting and driving the Russians back surprisingly well with less troops using older Soviet era weapons from the “Cold War“, a limited amount of Western supplied weapons, and using NATO style military training they got after the 2014 invasion of Crimea.

  507.  @j.heilig7239  The A350 pilot was following the instructions of ground controllers. The ATC recording said that the A350 pilot told the ground controller he had hit something. He said that he is following the taxi centerline and hit something. The pilot of the CRJ didn’t report the hit. It was the tower who noticed the tail missing. You obviously don't have a pilot license

  508.  @tchevrier  Maybe the taxiway width is too narrow for the long wings of the A350, the runway red hold short line is too close to the taxiway for a jet to get pass if a jet is holding short. There have been previous problems with airport layout, confused taxiway signs, not enough space on the tarmac of the airport built 50 years ago for the movement of modern jets with longer wings. The NTSB’s report will come up with recommendations.

The White House secret data log showed the missing documents had been given to Trump that triggered the National Archives to notify the Department of Justice about the missing Top Secret documents. Trump lost his security clearance when he left office. All presidential produced work is the property of the United States and is kept and guarded by the National Archives. This is a “Slam-Dunk” case for violating federal laws.

  522. The jet was on final to land, when it suddenly declared a “May Day” and tried to do a go-round. After starting a mis-approach, the jet never gained enough altitude to re-enter the landing pattern. Unexpectedly, instead of doing a mis-approach and trying to land with the wind on the active runway, the jet did a 180° turn and landed wheels up without flaps, slats and with a tail wind and touched down too far down the runway to have skidded to a stop.

Ukraine is right next door and has old used former Soviet Union military equipment and had trained under the same military doctrine as the Russian troops. It shows the corruption and graft in the Russian military high command and Russian government bureaucracy on supplying material and training. Drones had been used for years and most modern military has counter measures for them. It's called Close In Weapons Defense System (CIWDS). The American Military has a system called C-RAM (Counter-Rocket, Artillery, Mortar) that will detect and destroy rockets, artillery, mortars, and drones. https://youtu.be/o0f-2JHK6bM

  527. “You need to name an alternate airport on your IFR flight plan if, for the period of time one hour before and one hour after your estimated time of arrival, the weather is forecast to include a ceiling of 2,000 feet (above ground level) AGL and/or visibilities less than three statute miles (the 1-2-3 rule)…” FAA requirement for alternate airport in bad weather. Most economy airlines have limited landing agreements at different airports. If the economy airline had to land at an alternate airport due to bad weather that they didn’t have landing agreements, they would have to pay extra for landing and pay for the gate and ground crew to service the aircraft at the alternate airport from an airline competitor who had agreement rights. That’s why most economy airlines would cancel the flight and not risk the cost eating into their profit if they had to divert to an alternate airport. If you go with an economical airline, you take your chances of above normal cancellations due to weather.

That is why both the police and military leaders must constantly keep their people from crossing the line and training them to know when to stop. It would get extremely dangerous if the politicians use police or military personnel without having riot control training to desensitized their emotions in high stress situations and just give them the riot control equipment.

  553. The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) controls about 90% of the state’s electricity. The Texas power grid is independent from the rest of the country’s federal power grid regulation. Ironically, the parts of Texas that is connected to the nation electric grid stayed running due to federal regulation to maintain function during inclement weather. ERCOT deregulated these requirements. The “Green Power” is only used to supply only about 10% of the baseline electrical power in Texas because you can‘t increase the wind or sunshine to get additional power. The majority of power is from the Texas thermal power plants (I.e.; Natural gas, coal fired and nuclear). The thermal power plants are used for peak loads above the baseline loads because you can increase output or bring online power generators. The Texas ERCOT plants were not regulated to be functional during inclement weather, so the Natural gas line pipes were frozen and the coal plants were affected by the cold weather. The ERCOT plants are only paid when they produce electricity so to save cost they chose not to weatherize, whereas the federal power grid power plants must winterize and are paid a minimum sum to be on standby. The small areas in Texas that are connected to the national power grid are isolated from the ERCOT power grid. As long as Texas keeps their ERCOT power grid isolated from the rest of the country, the federal government has no regulatory control over the Texas ERCOT power grid. The federal government can only control the interstate commerce regulation between states. Trump’s former head of the Department of Energy was Rick Perry, the former Governor of Texas, in an interview he said that Texans would chose blackouts rather then have the Feds regulate the Texas power grid. I guess the Texas motto is “Give me no Regulation or give me Death“. Rick was the same guy on Dancing with the Stars (he lost).

The act of cutting off one's pinky is called yubitsume, which literally translates to "finger-shortening" and it's a huge part of Yakuza culture. In the gang, members are expected to cut off their pinky fingers as a show of remorse for an offence that they have previously committed. A 1993 Japanese government survey found that 45 percent of modern yakuza members had severed finger joints - while 15 percent had performed the act at least twice. Japan has been listed in the top ten safest countries in the world with low violent crime rate. Some things haven't been westernized.

  661. Putin is living in the past that is long gone and there is really no purpose to physical capture Ukraine‘s capital city of Kyiv. A country’s capital city contains government buildings, office buildings, commercial businesses, hotels, residential houses and are devoid of large military installations. In the twenty-first century capital cities are just the symbolic seat of government with the running of the government done using computers interlinking government computer serves and is easily relocated to another places. If Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not in his office when the Russian forces capture the Presidential offices, will the Russians place a puppet Ukrainian President in this chair and crown him president? Kharkiv the second largest city in Ukraine isn’t a major government center, but a university center which has no military installations in the center of the city. The strike on the civilian regional administration building in Kharkiv either shown how badly the Russian’s military forces are trained by widely missing their military target in daylight and hitting a non-military target or they are starting to use terror tactics on the civilian population.

  675. Flying in inclement weather the 737 was landing using the Instrument Landing System (ILS). The less experience co-pilot must have hit an updraft in the bad weather during landing and was above the landing ILS glide slope and dropped the nose aggressively and cut power not to over speed in the dive to recapture the glide slope. The captain ordered the co-pilot to hit the Take Off/Go around (TOGA) button to go to max power on the engines to go around. They diverted to Honolulu because it has a longer runway than Kauai; sounds like poor pilot training. The “Dutch Roll” sounds like it happened with the auto-pilot in control and not a pilot error, that’s why they when back to Boeing.

Per the US Espionage Law having unlawful data that can harm the national interest is a crime; the classification levels doesn’t matter since the US Espionage Laws were on the books before any classification rules. The law is for everyone, including the GOP. Trump does not have a US government secret clearance, once he left the office of the president and should be treated as every other US citizen who breaks the law. With this much evidence, the federal grand jury will indict Trump on numerous federal charges.

Trump’s lead lawyers, James Trusty and John Rowley, hit the news media route and went on spewing political “Red Meat” to the GOP MAGA and had said nothing about the law and this was just a political vendetta. They were just trying to taint the jury pool with political nonsense. After the news media blitz, the Feds dropped the hammer and released the full indictment. Both his lead lawyers, James Trusty and John Rowley, quit that same day. The possible reason, once appearing before the court as Trump’s legal attorneys they are obligated to represent him and can not quit without the judge approving their quitting; they could quit anytime before the arrangement. Trump's notorious for not paying his attorneys.

He tried to steal democracy from the American people by spreading his “Big Lie” which numerous US courts had disavowed as made up lies from his crazy MAGA GOP cronies. Trump and his MAGA GOP will try to steal the next election by spreading their lies. No other US President or political party had lied and deceived the American people as much as the MAGA GOP in history before Trump. The crazy MAGA GOP always tries to make accuses for their cult leader by saying the Democrats does the same thing, and makeup wild crazy lies without proof which the courts have dismissed.

Because of Trump all of the far-right kooks; white supremacy, conspiracy advocates, and violent radicals are joining the GOP as the GOP leaders’ stays quiet. Abraham Lincoln would be rolling over in his grave how far the GOP has sunk.

  737. The judge based on documents has already ruled that the Trump LLCs committed fraud. The bench trial will mainly determine the extent of the fraud and amount of penalties to impose. All monies obtain fraudulently will be confiscated.

The are rumors, which are unverifiable, of a Ukraine Mig-29 pilot downing multiple Russian aircraft in the early hours of the invasion in a suicidal attack against a superior force of Russian fighters, which the Russian fighters were not expecting. The Ukrainians are calling the pilot the “Ghost of Kyiv”; it is unclear if he survived the battle. Some news organization is calling the “Ghost of Kyiv” just an urban legend, but the downing of multiple Russian aircraft have been verified and the difficulty of the Russians obtaining total air superiority over all of Ukraine is true for the moment, but could change.

Putin is a dictator who can’t be trusted by the world. Because of Putin, Russia is becoming a pariah in the world.

  814. Putin is afraid of the F-16 that first entered service almost 50 years ago, but has been periodically upgraded, against his modern fighters! He's also afraid that his so called 5th generation fighter, Su-57, might be shot down over Ukraine!

  815. Looks like someone is going to be sent back home for retraining. When they first entered the building, there is a civilian right in front of them. They act like he is invisible and continue to clear the building without checking him for weapons or securing him when they went pass. What was the purpose of the exercise? The “Bad Guys” were to be in uniform? The soldiers had full magazine loaded in their weapons. The civilians had no way of knowing that there were blank rounds instead of live ammo.

  819. Under the old USSR, ethnic Russian enclaves where established in conquered areas to cause disunity with the local ethnic population against the USSR’s central government. These old USSR ethnic Russian enclaves are where the political disruptions are being generated. Russia can occupy small areas of ethnic Russian speaking enclaves in Ukraine near the boarder on the East and the South. But, not the whole country since the rest of Ukraine speaks Ukrainian and is a different ethnic group. When the USSR fell, all the former ethnic members left Russia and formed their own ethnic country. It’s very doubtful that the non-ethnic Russians in their own country would want to join Russia voluntarily and be ruled by a minority Russian ethnic overlord. This will be a political quagmire for the Russians where the majority of the Ukrainians are a different ethnic group, speak a different language, and basically hate you. The Russians will be seen as an invader and will have to maintain an occupying military force for years at a considerable cost. If Russia is trying to scare Ukraine from joining the NATO alliance for protection against Russian aggression, it’s very likely to backfire. There is no clear endgame for Russia.

  826. Update, a security guard parked outside in a SUV watching Ted’s mansion said that he was watching the dog from his SUV. I guess sitting in a heated SUV outside the mansion constitutes taking care of the dog. Normally a dog sitter would be inside the home instead of sitting outside in a SUV.

From the start of the invasion they have not practice communication security by not use mobile phones or using only secure military communication networks. They have use commercial handheld radio.

The Russian soldiers have stolen mobile phones from Ukrainian business and homes and they will continue to do so because of their lack of discipline and low morale.

Putin’s Russian oligarchs and Generals have been stealing money from the country and providing substandard military equipment and training, while buying multi-million dollar villas and multi-million dollar yachts in Western countries. Putin will just be sending more under trained and under equipped reserve troops as “Cannon Fodder”.

  924. It’s turning into a nightmare situation for the Russian military if the war turns into a non-conventional warfare, a Guerrilla war. Every Ukrainian men, women and children, they see could be a “Freedom Fighter” hiding weapons and waiting for an opportunity to strike against the Russians. The Russian military will be viewed as an enemy occupation force, having to subdue a large population under harsh treatment to keep their own casualties low against opponents that wears civilian clothing, and are not in military uniform. The Russians might control cities, but they will not be able to control the population if they people doesn‘t want them in their country. This will become an occupation force with roadblocks, checkpoints, and military garrisons throughout the occupied territories for years with the constant resistance attack on their forces. They will be protests and riots in the Russian occupied territories and in the rest of the world against Russia. The myth of Russia having a strong military was all “Smoke and Mirror” propaganda by Putin if he can’t stand up against the peaceful nation of Ukraine using ordinary citizens to defend their country against his aggression, that’s why he is now threatening the world with nuclear war.

She was using the three other classified theses for her own classified theses. She got 3 months in a federal prison for taking 3 classified documents to her hotel room overnight. Per the US Espionage Law having unlawful data that can harm the national interest is a crime; the classification levels doesn’t matter since the US Espionage Laws were on the books before any classification rules. The law is for everyone, including the GOP. Trump does not have a US government secret clearance, once he left the office of the president and should be treated as every other US citizen who breaks the law. With this much evidence, the federal grand jury will indict Trump on numerous federal charges.

The reason only a 10% charge on Canadian oil and electricity is because as soon as it crosses the border the electricity is charged to the consumer electric grid and the oil in the pipeline goes to the refinery; it would become an instant sticker shock if it was 25%. Other Canadian products have been stored in warehouse before they become depleted, and the new supply hits the consumer with the 25% tariff.

The carbon fiber reduced the overall weight and increased the internal volume allowing it to carry five people. Carbon fiber failure mode is cracking like an egg shell and splitting of the fibers; metal will deform, bend and crumple. To monitor for carbon fiber failure, the designers installed sound monitors to detect cracking sound and hopefully allowing the pilot of the submersible to surface.

After 1hr 45min all communication was lost and the Polar Prince waited for Titan to surface. When Titan didn’t surface the crew thought the CEO was going to dive blind to the Titanic. Based on the dive profile when the Titan wasn’t in the recovery surface area, the crew thought diving blind must have gotten her off course and called the US Coast Guard over 10 hrs after she entered the water. That’s way the US Coast Guard and Canadian Coast Guard was looking on the surface.

A nineteen year old college dropout without prior medical experience comes up with a revolutionary blood testing unit that’s smaller than a suitcase to do testing that took a whole laboratory to do. It’s like a fraudster selling the “Brooklyn Bridge” to rich stupid people. She was the typical “Snake Oil Saleswomen”. The “Snake Oil” was sold as being able to cure every illness. The “Snake Oil” would taste terrible, but it contained a small amount of narcotic. The foul taste conformed to the buyer’s perception that medicine should taste bad, and the narcotic dulled his pain; so therefore it must be working. She assembled small units that had known blood testing devices installed that worked to a small degree, but they were not very accurate or were repeatable in their results. She used old white men with name recognition without any technical background to push her “Snake Oil” blood test units. She kept her technical staff isolated from each other, so no one could see the big picture; they just worked on small parts to assemble or program the device.

The kids can’t play quietly in their rooms and have to go visit their friends if they want privacy. I go out and cut the grass or trim the hedges; grandpa is overweight and doesn’t like to walk far. It seems that the reason they don’t have press meetings in the WH press room is because Trump wants to be the center of attention and will just walk right in. Whenever the WH aides wants to talk to the press, they have to walk down the driveway far away from the windows so Trump won’t see them and he doesn’t like to walk either.

The Ukrainian rear guard forces were in underground tunnels able to withstand the bombardment, while the Ukrainian military fighting the Russians above ground were exposed. The Russian wasted a lot of munitions on the rear guard forces underground which would have caused a lot more damage above ground, thus saving Ukrainian lives; both military and civilian. The Ukrainian military holdouts in Mariupol’s Azovstal Steel Plant pose no military threat to the Russian forces in Mariupol or had pose no threat to the Russian supply lines since the holdouts were totally isolated living in underground tunnels and couldn’t be re-supplied from the outside. The capture of Mariupol’s Azovstal Steel Plant was just a pyrrhic victory for Russian political propaganda.

The Disney employees working in municipal functions, firefighters, trash collectors, road maintenance, will have to be absorbed by the local towns and country. Disney shouldn't fight this and let it happen and move the municipal services to the MAGA GOP taxpayers. Under its legislative charter, the Reedy Creek special tax-district operates much like a local government, providing services like building and maintaining roads, operating fire and emergency medical services, picking up waste and recycling and managing utility systems like water and power.

It’s obvious that if the MAGA followers went wild, with all the hardware and body protection weapons they were carrying they could inflect a lot of damage. The BLM hippie protesters could hit you with thrown granola bars and water bottles? At the BLM protest, it looked like they called out as much military units and federal armed units that they could.

If you have received a target letter, it means that federal prosecutors or agents believe there is substantial evidence linking you to criminal conduct and authorities believe you may be involved in a crime. Currently US Federal Prosecutors have a 95% conviction rate either by guilty plea or jury guilty verdict because of their due diligence in obtaining evidence before filing any charges. If you receive a federal target letter you should put jam in your pocket because you're TOAST!

The White House secret data log showed the missing documents had been given to Trump that triggered the National Archives to notify the Department of Justice about the missing Top Secret documents. Trump lost his security clearance when he left office. All presidential produced work is the property of the United States and is kept and guarded by the National Archives.

  1236. This is exposing the Russian government and military high command incompetence and corruption. Ukraine is right next door and has outdated former Soviet Union military equipment with some limited amount of Western donated weapon systems; far less then they need. After the Russian stole Crimea, the Ukrainian military has been trained under the Western military doctrine, while the Russian military still fights using the Soviet doctrine of bombardment of civilian cities. It shows the corruption and graft in the Russian military high command and Russian government bureaucracy on supplying material and training. Putin’s Russian oligarchs and Generals have been stealing money from the country and providing substandard military equipment and training, while buying multi-million dollar villas and multi-million dollar yachts in Western countries.

It will be like turning back to the “Cold War” days before the fall of the “Berlin Wall”. Sanctions will take a long time to be effective, since the rich Russian Oligarchs stockpiled money and luxury good before the attack after Putin told them he was attacking. The “SWIFT” payment system will stay open for awhile before it will be shutdown. It will give Western companies time to get their payments from Russian banks for goods that they had already sold before the “No Sell” sanctions are enforced and they will be no bank money transfers from Russia. Just economically isolate the Russians by not selling them goods or buy oil from them.

The Western anti-tank missile is fired by a single soldier and is lightweight, aimed, fire and forget weapon that‘s self-guided that hit‘s the thin armor on top of the T-72 tank. Looking at the crude hastily built protection, the MBT NLAW must have been deadly. The Russian military must have underestimated how effective the Western anti-tank missile the Ukrainians had would be on their old tanks and were ill prepared.

There were also cases reported in Nigeria, Mali, Europe, and the U.S. 28,616 people were suspected or confirmed to be infected; 11,310 people died. Covid 19 cases so far 7,690,708. Covid 19 deaths so far 427,630 Covid 19 is easier to spread than any previous virus. It uses a lot of medical resources for treatment. No other virus we had encountered had basically shutdown the whole world.

  1328. In the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) December 17, 2020...”COVID-19 as the Leading Cause of Death in the United States”… Covid-19 has surpassed heart disease as the number one leading cause of death in the United States.

  1329. Spy satellites are in low earth obit and move across the sky and are not in a geostationary obit. To see the missile strike, it would have to have been a lucky coincidence. Most likely it was military radio transmissions from the Moskva after being hit by the Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles and asking for assistance. The Russian military has been undisciplined in their security communication protocol.

  1331.  @jennifer7685  The lawsuit was always going to be settled out of court with Fox trying to strong arm Dominion over the settlement amount. The Fox organization is worth about $16.44B and Dominion voting systems is worth about $80M. Dominion had enough money to fight the delaying tactics of Fox. Fox would never go to open court having their people testify under oath.

  1337. Putin is living in the past that is long gone and there is really no purpose to physical capture Ukraine‘s capital city of Kyiv. A country’s capital city contains government buildings, office buildings, commercial businesses, hotels, residential houses and are devoid of large military installations. In the twenty-first century capital cities are just the symbolic seat of government with the running of the government done using computers interlinking government computer serves and is easily relocated to another places. If Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not in his office when the Russian forces capture the Presidential offices, will the Russians place a puppet Ukrainian President in this chair and crown him president? Kharkiv isn’t a major government center, but a university center which has no military installations in the center of the city.

  1339. Putin wants to drive off or just bomb the Ukrainian civilians for their lands and give Russians the land resources. The scene of the Russian military bombing the Ukrainians forcing them to leave or take shelter underground is reminiscent of what the Nazis did when they conquered peaceful countries in WW2.

  1345.  @Omikoshi78  Did you even listen to what he said? He said that travel should be for essential travel and not for vacation. You take your chances if you get Covid on vacation over there. You can’t fly back to the mainland if you test positive; you have to quarantine in your hotel room. People aren’t forced to travel for vacation during the pandemic; you take your chances if you spend your money for a vacation.
    1
  1346.  @Omikoshi78  People who risked booking for a vacation during a pandemic, could buy vacation insurance allowing them to get some of their money back for a cancellation. You can also just go there on vacation and hope not getting the virus and having to spend more money if you have to quarantine longer in a hotel; the state is not on lock-down. Life is a gamble, you take your chances. This announcement of not traveling for vacation during a pandemic wasn’t new; it was often repeated by other government officials. The Hawaii tourism industry didn’t have advertisement telling people to travel to Hawaii during the pandemic. The only money held hostage is the stupid people who booked a vacation during a pandemic.

  1352. Swampland in Florida is a figure of speech referring to real estate scams in which a seller misrepresents unusable swampland as developable property. These types of unseen property scams became widely known in the United States in the 20th century, and the phrase is often used metaphorically for any scam that misrepresents what is being sold. Trump overvalued his properties to get a lower interest loan from the bank and then undervalued the same properties to pay lower property taxes.

  1353. Nancy Pelosi was elected Speaker of the House with an even slimmer margin of only 4 seat majority on the first vote and controlled the House for two years.

  1354. Chesebro was required to give a video proffer in the negotiated plea. The defendant is legally required to tell the truth and not withhold any relevant information. A proffer is unique in that the defendant essentially incriminates themselves by openly talking about both their role in and their knowledge of the crime committed and others involved. If the negotiation fails because the defendant doesn’t have any useful information, his incriminated testimony against himself and others can not be used in court. If he doesn’t truthfully testify in court against others, the plea deal is broken and he can be charged with further crimes and any light sentencing agreement is void.

  1355. The Taiwanese pager firm Gold Apollo leased their name to a Hungarian firm BAC Consulting and didn’t design or make the devices.

  1357. The judge probably didn’t have a capital murder case that was in the national news and bent over backwards to be fair and punted the case to the neighboring county for trial.

  1359.  @raymond3803  When you flew on a 747 back then, the FAA had a rule that jet planes had to have a minimum of three jet engines for reliability and power available due to a lost engine. With today’s jet engine reliability and powerful engines, the 737 can fly on one engine.
    1
  1360.  @raymond3803  If a plane loses an engine the plane is required to have enough power on one engine to reach an alternate runway. Over land back than there were enough alternate runways to land nearby after losing an engine on a two engine jet. Back than, flying over water on a two engine plane there wasn’t enough power on a single engine and would lose too much altitude before reaching land.

The protective order will be a detail list of items provided by the prosecutors to the defense that can not be made public. If Trump breaks this protective order his bail can be revoked for not following the conditions of his bail and can be incarcerated until his trial.

  1368. Trump’s GOP is again trying to “Gaslight” the public saying that the January 6 insurrection never happened; that the most monitored and secured election in US history, because of the 2016 Russian interference, had been rigged by the Democrats and stolen from Trump. Trump’s elected GOP Congressmen and Senators tried to stop the certification of the election to put their cult leader in office, the office that he was voted out of by the American people. Trump’s GOP tried to put their cult leader in as “Dictator” with no laws and are now trying to re-write history with their “Gas Lighting” tricks to say that there wasn't any GOP insurrection on January 6, 2021.

  1373. The top five US states with the highest positive testing rate for COVID 19 are states with lower population compared to the higher populated states. The one common thing is the five states have Republican governors. They live in less populated agricultural areas outside of the big cities, not like the big cities of the West and East coasts. In the big cities it’s hard to keep your distance from one another. My GOD! What are these people doing? The five highest positive testing rate states are; 1) Wyoming, 2) South Dakota, 3) Iowa, 4) Kansas, and 5) Idaho.

  1374. Trump likes dictators and often refuses to pay his bills by telling the debt collectors sue me or files for bankruptcy to avoid paying them! He also kept the big letter that he got from his good friend Kin Jung Un of North Korea when he left the White House as a love letter and talked with Putin and had the US interpreter destroy his written notes, which violates US laws since these are official documents; who knows what he said to Putin.

Ironically, in the extremely few cases of fraudulent voting, it was people voting for Trump. The massive conspiracies of rigging millions of votes against Trump are only in the minds of the GOP. The GOP are the ones spreading the “Fake News” and conspiracy rhetoric and trying to “Steal the Vote” by putting obstacles in the in way to keep people from voting. The biggest irony for the GOP is that Trump is being investigated for interfering with the election process in Georgia, a GOP controlled state.

In January 2018, Warner/Chappell settled the lawsuit and agreed to return the licensing fees paid by the plaintiffs, as well as pay back $14 million to those who had previously paid licensing fees to use the song…”

  1435. Bernie Madoff's "Ponzi" scheme was $18 billion and he was sentenced to life and died in prison. This guy is much younger and might actually get out of prison when he's a very, very old man on parole.

  1436. The Putin must be desperate to use a civilian ferry that carries passengers and civilian vehicles to transport 30 military fuel tanks to hide the delivery from the Ukrainians instead of driving them over the bridge; I guess it didn’t work.

  1437. This shows how dependent the world is on computer software; a simple software flight crew scheduling software upgrade caused a massive system shutdown when they couldn’t assign pilots and flight attendants to already schedule flights. Other airlines had backup plans to reduce the flight crew scheduling software outage, but Delta had no contingency plans and just cancelled all their flights. Delta saved on wages and relied heavily on the software program with no backups.

  1438. “The EU retaliates against Trump’s trade moves and slaps tariffs on produce from Republican states… soybeans in House speaker Mike Johnson’s Louisiana…”12 Mar 2025 AP News. It looks like more unemployment also.

  1439. Ken Paxton a GOP MAGA Christian far right conservative lawyer betrayed his religion by committing adultery, his oath of office to up whole the US Constitution by his corruption and abuse of his office. The Texas GOP could not standby any longer by the rampant corruption. I don’t understand how his wife, who is a GOP MAGA state senator in district 8, can standing by him after he humiliated her with his illicit affair and open corruption; I guess, birds of a feather flock together.

  1440. Those were old video clips of Ronna McDaniel when she was much heavier. She lost a lot of weight recently from Trump's dumpster fire pulling down the rest of the GOP ticket in the election and stress that the GOP is losing money. Other people say she had weight loss surgery to look good for her next job.

  1442.  Ani Keith  No, I saw the clear and sunny skies during the parade that the Russian state news said that the flyover had to be cancelled due to bad weather. The Russian state news said that the entire crew of the Moskva was evacuated and saved. The Russian state news said the same thing when the nuclear submarine Kursk sank in 2000.

  1445.  @colindavis1496  The weather was nice and there was no bad weather and Putin lied. I agree that I just guessing as to why Putin lied very openly to the world on a very simple matter. He could have just said that it was cancelled, instead of making such an obvious lie to the world.

  1446.  @colindavis1496  If Putin keeps obviously lying, no world leader can believe what he says, that is the problem for a country with nuclear weapons. The West can not afford to guess Putin's intentions, that is why both Finland and Sweden, traditionally neutral countries, are planning on joining NATO for protection against a neighboring country who‘s leader constantly lies.

  1447.  @colindavis1496  Putin invaded Ukraine and is killing civilians indiscriminately, the people of the thirty countries in NATO, the forty-four countries in the European Union and other non-NATO countries are united against Putin.

  1448.  @colindavis1496  It's funny about the narrow focus, with you choosing Dictator Putin's lies over the 30+ NATO countries, 44 EU countries, and other non-aligned countries opinion on Putin's aggression over a peaceful independent Ukraine.
    1
  1449.  @colindavis1496  The former WARSAW Pact countries chose to joint NATO and not stay in a pact with Russia under a Russian Dictator. It takes all NATO members to vote, not just the US. Each NATO member has an equal vote. The US doesn't control NATO like the Putin controls Russia. If the nukes are used, Russia will also be destroyed and the 30+ NATO forces, along with the EU and France with it's own nukes, will retaliate. Basically, Russia stands alone.

  1450. Trump had cheated on his wives, lied to people, cheated building contractors and lawyers out of payment who worked for him, and stolen money from his own charity, which he never donated to, his whole life. Accounting firm Marzas only now realizes that the Trump Organization had been lying to the accountants for years and they may now be at risk for criminal prosecution for financial fraud.

  1451.  @hieyeque1  Speech can be fact checked, but people like the GOP MAGA just spread rumors and lies without facts or proof; which the courts have shot down as without merit.

  1452.  @hieyeque1  It's a private company that less then three weeks is on the brink of bankruptcy. Elon even posted a tombstone with the twitter logo over the headstone. It's not once side or the other, it's what's true.

  1453.  @hieyeque1  Freedom of the press is to prevent the US Government interfering with free speech or censorship on individuals and companies. Individuals can spread rumors and lies, but not slander or libel people or companies done with malice. Civil courts prevent slander and libel by having a jury and a judge determine guilty or innocence and monetary penalties; there is no State or Federal prosecutors, just private attorneys on both sides. That’s is how Alex Jones lost his civil lawsuits in Texas and Connecticut and why Trump‘s cronies have civil lawsuits against because of their 2020 election lies.

  1454.  @hieyeque1  Once twitter lost its honesty and integrity by Elon Musk getting rid of the checks and balance teams, its hard to believe anything that's posted there anymore.

  1455.  @hieyeque1  Trump is not listed as a defendant in the lawsuits on the 2020 elections, his cronies like the "Pillow Man", Fox News hosts and his private attorneys are. Both state and federal courts have ruled on Trump's 2020 election lawsuits as having no merit on the 2020 election.

  1456.  @hieyeque1  Elon musk has eliminated most of the HR department and other check and balance offices within twitter and not replaced them as with an independent group. Elon Musk is the only one who says what is true, there is no check on his opinion or any other peoples' opinion of twitter

  1457. Russia wants the West and NATO’s assurances that they won’t let Ukraine joint NATO’s mutual defiance alliance against aggression, or else they will invade Ukraine to keep them from joining NATO. The former USSR had sent military forces to suppress independent movements in Hungary and Czechoslovakia during the Cold War to keep them from leaving their control. Who in their right minds would ever trust Russia to honor their word?

  1458. WTF!! The crazy MAGA GOP lies all the time! Look at the all the lawsuits thrown out of numerous courts as being false and without merit. The crazy MAGA GOP follows Trump and never apologies for their misstates, yet demands others apology. What hypocrites!

  1459. Trump is a “Penny Picher” and micromanages everything in the Trump organization, he doesn’t trust his grown sons and daughter. He had the company checks sent to the White House for his signature if the amount on the check was over 10 thousand.

  1466. The Ukrainians can not hope to defend their large cities. The Ukrainians will have to use “Guerrilla Tactics” against the stronger Russian forces. The Russians will be mired in an occupation force with no “End Strategy” for withdrawing from their mess.

  1467. Putin will show his true colors by laying World War 2 type city destroying siege to terrorizing the innocent Ukrainian men, women, and children. He will use his main battle tanks, artillery, aerial bombs, rockets, and any heavy weapons he has one step below going chemical, biological, or nuclear.

  1468. Spirit airline is an ultra-low-cost-carrier (ULCC) where they will charge you for just about everything they can to increase the price of your original low price ticket. You can board only with a very small backpack, purse, or briefcase; they charge for carry-on and checked in baggage. Want to chose a seat, they will charge you for the service. Want to check-in and talk with a human being at the airport; they will charge you. Want a bottle of water while on-board; they will charge you. Since it’s an ULCC, they do not have any inter-airline agreements with any other airline. If there is a mechanical issue or severe weather and they cancel the flight, no other airline will allow them to book you on their airline. If you can travel with just the clothes you are wearing and a few pieces of extra clothing in your small backpack and are willing to sleep at the airport for a couple of nights if your flight is cancelled, then Spirit airlines might be cheaper and quicker than riding on an interstate bus.

  1470. Putin wants to drive off or just bomb the Ukrainian civilians for their lands and give Russians the land resources. The scene of the Russian military bombing the Ukrainians forcing them to leave or take shelter underground is reminiscent of what the Nazis did when they conquered peaceful countries in WW2.

Kim Jong-un gave his best two white meat dogs to Putin.

  1472. Trump using military planes to deport illegals is just a political stunt. It would be cheaper to charter commercial jets like they had done before. Using military jets reduces their service life for the military and costs more to fly per hour than commercial jets.

  1473. Kim Jong Un can only sell his loser weapons to loser countries like Russia and Iran. Even China won’t touch the weapons for the cheap prices.

  1474. How bad is the case against Trump? As soon as the Feds gave Trump’s lead lawyers, James Trusty and John Rowley, the summons to appear, Trump went on the offensive. Trump went on the internet and told the world. James Trusty hit the news media route and went on spewing political “Red Meat” to the GOP MAGA and had said nothing about the law and this was just a political vendetta. He was just trying to taint the jury pool with political nonsense. After the Trump’s lawyer’s media blitz, the Feds dropped the hammer and released the full indictment. Both his lead lawyers, James Trusty and John Rowley, quit that same day.
