Hiroshima Tribute

Infowars host Alex Jones appearing in court this week for the Sandy Hook Defamation trial didn't go well. The court ordered he must pay $4.1 million to the Sandy Hook parents of the victims.
Anticipating things to turn sour, he filed bankruptcy last Friday and gets subpoena for fraud.
That's a double whammy.

But wait! There's more... he's also being subpoenaed for his role in the insurrection.
You know one on January 6th that didn't happen!

I smell a TRIPLE WHAMMY...

Let that soak in as Lady Karma has been watching while he sleeps!



Do you like him better with or without the beard?

Over the weekend, Houston's Democrat Mayor Sylvester Turner held a gun buyback event in a church parking lot where residents could turn in their firearms and receive a gift card ranging from $50 to $200 with no questions asked. According to the Mayor's announcement, the funds provided to those turning in firearms came from the American Rescue Plan — aka American taxpayers — and the amount-per-firearm was $50.00 for a non-functioning firearm, $100.00 for a rifle or shotgun, $150.00 for a handgun, and $200.00 for a fully automatic rifle.

Heralded as a success by the mayor and hyped up by the liberal Houston Chronicle, the event on Saturday saw 845 guns bought back and some $100,000 in gift card payments given. But the alleged success isn't exactly what it seems.

The FAQ section for the buyback noted that there's no limit on the number of firearms that could be turned in by an individual, nor was there any restriction on the types of handguns, as long as they're functioning. Enter some creative and apparently entrepreneurial individuals who saw an opening and decided to make some extra cash.

Photos and videos from the event show authorities unloading boxes of... fresh 3D-printed firearms.

One man showed up to the buyback with dozens of 3D-printed firearms, and Houston authorities had no choice but to accept them and hand over gift cards in return. The real kicker: it only cost the man $3 to print each firearm, of which he made 62, and received $50 per 3D-printed gun for a total of nearly $3,000 in gift cards.

FOX 26 caught up with the man, who remained anonymous, and asked him why he 3D-printed a bunch of firearms to sell back to Houston authorities. "The goal was not personal profit, but to send [Houston leaders] a message about spending $1 million tax dollars on something that has no evidence of any effect on crime," he said.

Still, Houston's mayor thinks his buyback program will convince criminals and gang members to hand over their firearms for as little as $50.

The United States killed Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri in a drone strike over the weekend, two people briefed on the operation told POLITICO.

In a statement to reporters, a senior administration official said “over the weekend, the United States conducted a counterterrorism operation against a significant Al Qaeda target in Afghanistan. The operation was successful and there were no civilian casualties.”

One of the people briefed on the operation said the strike in Kabul was led by the CIA.

Huh? Sunscreen is supposed to prevent cancer from exposure to the sun. In this case, it's trace amounts of benzene, a chemical which can cause cancer with repeated exposure.

On weekends, I'm in the sun on and off for hours and stopped using sunscreen because I was getting red blotches on my skin. There could be a correlation.

Recently, Banana Boat Hair and Scalp Spray SPF 30 was pulled from shelves.
"This recall comes a little over a year after Johnson & Johnson recalled five sunscreens because they were found to contain benzene. That recall included Aveeno and Neutrogena products in aerosol cans."

The first reader comment:
How many years was benzene used in these products before?

Edmund Kemper was a sociopath and an American serial killer who was active in the early 1970s


Kemper went on trial for his crimes in October, 1973 and charged with eight counts of first-degree murder. He was found guilty of all charges in early November and received eight concurrent life sentences. At present, Kemper is serving his time at California Medical Facility in Vacaville.

Kemper had a close relationship with his father and was devastated when his parents seperated in 1957. This caused him to be raised by her mother Carnell and they had a dysfunctional relationship. At the age of 10, he buried a cat alive; once it died, he dug it up, decaptivated it and mounted its head on a spike. He used to cut off the heads of his sister’s doll to enact murders and bizarre s*xual rituals. He fantasized about being executed by electric chair and would often enact it as an “electric chair game” with his sisters. He also lived to play “Gas Chamber” in which he asked his younger sister to tie him up, flip an imaginary switch and then he would tumble over, writhe on the floor, pretending to be dying of gas inhalation.
