Russyan Foreign Minister Sergay Lavrov, has been on a swing trip through many African countries. He's attempting to sow doubts among these countries as to whom is to blame for the dearth of food shipments since Russya invaded Ukraine. He points to the United States as the ultimate culprit. Of course, local leaders listen, but with their fingers crossed behind their backs. Additionally, Lavrov tells folks that Russya has never been a colonizer unlike those Western European states that ran roughshod over the continent in the 1800's, looting and destroying as they went. Maybe he feels that Africans don't know Russyan history. Maybe they don't know about the Czars and their royal greed as they went into Asia and destroyed entire cultures in their rapacious grab of more territory.
Well, many African leaders know the truth. However, they are also pragmatists and are well aware of Russya, China, and others who seek much of the continent's wealth. Not unlike days of old. In the Central African Republic, Russyan troops are assisting locals as they are forced to teach Russyan language to the locals, as they extract diamonds from the nation. In Sudan, next door, Russyans are buying gold from local miners outside normal commercial sites. This gold is then sent on to the Kremlin where it is processed into gold products for sale. Sound familiar? It's the same old Russyan playbook, over seen by Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, dictator for life.
The jury discussing the amount of the award that Alex Jones has to pay came back with the amount. The number is: $45,000,000.00 This is a nice figure. His attorneys state that this amount is illegal in the State of Texas. Hmmmmm. No doubt the financial limit imposed by the texas politicians -$750,000 will be tossed out as unconstitutional. Mr. Jones, the arch conspiracy theorist, will suffer little even if he pays this amount. Two more trials, which he has already been in default judgement, will also determine how much he will have to pay. He could be faced with additional amounts in excess of $100,000,000.00. This in combination could set the liar back a few years. Perhaps will evenget his fat ass off the air. Where has the F.C.C. been in all of this? Aren't they charged with regulating the airways? Hmmmm. What good are they, anyway? And what are we paying for?
Good bye, Alex. Turn out the lights at "Infowars". You done.
Well, sports fans, the clock is ticking on the Meeks Bay /Meeks Creek Rehabilitation Plan. The comment period ends on August 9th. One can make his/her voice heard during this time; and the tentative plane is available for viewing on the TRPA website.
The reconfiguration of the creek is the center piece of the plan(s). Moving some of the existing structures will also be a big part. Have any ideas? Want your say? Want to oppose this plan in some way? Now's the time. The Mayor encourages all Tahomans to recognize this plan as our future; and the future of Tahoma as a fine living space for residents and visitors. Meeks beach and the adjacent natural spaces are a local treasure, even if you never enjoy the solitude of a hike into Desolation Wilderness from the Meeks Creek meadows. Go now, over the next few days-see it in the summer sun. (watch for bruins).
Alex Jones, the immoral radio broadcaster who embraces every conspiracy theory ever known, was questioned for over 40 minutes by attorneys for plaintiffs who have sued the scumbag for spewing lies regarding the Sandy Hook school shooting massacre of children and their teachers. He called the event a staged hoax despite full knowledge of the truth. The court will now have a jury decide how much money this certified sleaze bag will have to pay. This is the man who recently was earning as much as $800,000 per day for selling shit to the idiots who listen to his childish rants and blatant lies and hysterical pronouncements ment only to sell more crap.
The balding, bearded fat pig looked a little stressed while on the hot seat in the court room. Reporters noted that he was sweating profusely during the questioning, clearly revealing his strees level and his lack of physical conditioning. Apparently, he does not know the meaning of good health habits and probably eats snacks while broadcasting /spewing his lies. He has tried the 1st Amendment defense, but judges and courts have ruled that it doesn't pertain in this case(s) since he failed to comply with the order to provide documents and testimony regarding the case. This trial of this scumbag will have far reaching effects among those families of victims of many mass shooting events, now so common, as they pursue the liars who deny these events. No 1st Amendment right exists to challenge the truth with lies.
Alex Jones, a pathetic excuse of a human being. Who listens and who follows this animal deserves to be an outcast from society.
We will not be bullied by Chinese Communists. Take that, Xi. The aging dictator and leader of modern Commies, is apoplectic. How dare this WOMAN act like this. It's not right. Doesn't she know we run the East Asian world now? Doesn't she know that it's just a matter of time before we absorb that little rock off our east coast that belongs to China? Who advises her: Bozo the Clown? Speaker of the House, Mrs. Pelosi, visited Taiwan yesterday and spoke with government officials there. Her mere presence was enough to a message Beijing that any action on Taiwan will have severe consequences for all things Communist. Such as: de-listing immediately of all Chinese businesses on American stock exchanges; closing of all West Coast ports to shipping that originated in East Asia; a shut down of all air traffic that originates in China; closure of all consular offices in the US; cancellation of all student visas; cancellation of all visas; cancellation of all trade agreements; expulsion from the W.T.O.; cancellation of all financial agreements with Chinese businesses; and finally, sanctions on all Chinese citizens who aspire to come to the US and Western European nations. Take that, Xi; and keep your Uighers in jail.
The long sought leader of the terrorist organization Al Qaeda, Ayman al Zawahri, was executed at his home in Kabul, Afghanistan on July 1, 2022. The search for his office has been continuous for nearly 3 decades. Many intelligence professionals thought that the U.S. exit from Afghanistan just might be the change in situation that would open the door for assets on the ground to find this murderer. The little pimp was living in a home and shielded by the Taliban and the Haqqani network. He spent his days making recruiting videos to spread his message of death to the susceptible Islamists who have no hope of any future but a chance to die on the way to their heaven.
Within the last month, information was collected that pointed to his location exactly, and methods were discussed and approved. Only C.I.A. assets would be involved , and as a result, no military were involved in the strike. A high flying drone armed with modified hellfire missiles would be the execution method used in the operation. Controlled remotely, these missiles, guided by cameras, would be just what the doctor ordered to deliver death to this murderer who was the No. 1 lieutenant of Osama bin Laden. With unmatched expertise, the drone was sent to al-Zawahi's address when he was known to be sitting on a balcony reading comic books that he favored over the morning news paper. He was seen sipping a glass of beet juice, his favorite drink, and he was still, not moving around the balcony. As the drone flew into position, the target was zeroed and the hellfire munitions flew on their path to blast this evil doer into the next life, or wherever Al Qaeda scum end up. His name can now be eliminated from the most wanted list. And a chapter can be closed on another international terrorist organization.
Here in the U.S., we know this does not end the modern scourge of terrorist organizations. However, it does reinforce the position that the world will not forget the acts of these murderers; and they will be executed in time wherever they might hide.
