This is what happens in South Africa if the Police Protection Unit think that you are a nuisance on the road.

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign paid an internet company to “infiltrate” servers at Trump Tower and the White House in order to link Donald Trump to Russia, a bombshell new legal filing alleges.

The Friday filing from a Department of Justice prosecutor tasked with investigating the origins of the FBI’s Russian probe served to throw cold water on Democrats’ longstanding allegations of collusion.

Special Counsel John Durham filed a motion related to potential conflicts of interests in connection with the case of Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, who is charged with lying to the feds, according to Fox News.

Sussmann allegedly told the FBI he was not working on behalf of Clinton when he presented the agency with documents that supposedly linked the Trump Organization to a Kremlin-tied bank two months before the election.

The lawyer has pleaded not guilty to the charge of making a false statement to a federal agent.

Durham’s motion reportedly alleged Sussmann “had assembled and conveyed the allegations to the FBI on behalf of at least two specific clients, including a technology executive (Tech Executive 1) at a U.S.-based internet company (Internet Company 1) and the Clinton campaign.”

...Called the COVID/Corona recovery bill, only a tiny fraction actually goes to the harms caused by the Chinese virus. VERY Chinese. Including $1,400 checks to illegal aliens, incarcerated felons, etc. Almost all goes to Liberal waste spending compulsions. Don't take my words for it. Wall Street Journal. Sir Bravo is reading it as I type.Teachers Unions--150 Billion, poorly run Dem States and cities bailouts---350 Billion. Not to mention billions to abortion mills, BLM, super rich Harvard Univ. and the like.
This, dear CS peebles, while one TRILLION from the original Covid bill hasn't even been spent yet!
Burdens on future taxpayers. And inflation. Kids beware. Working and middle classes too. High water gas in Californicate now over USD 5 per gallon. And same with home heating oils.
But for a little apple lover's perspective, how's this for Dems apples? 140 million US federal confiscatory tax paying persons. You do the math. Over $13 large for each taxpayer, just from this tax and spend pandering trick.
Good news is, not a single GOP Senator and few in the house, voted for it---so the Dem's own it all. 2022 and 2024 beckon large. Democracy. Back and forth. Inshallah. Match that, all one party fascist states.

I'm reading the latest news on Kari Lake's Maricopa County election lawsuit. Weeks ago I planned to blog about the election and other things captured my attention. It was a close race, but Kari lost, refused to concede and claims we don't have honest elections, yet her attorney was unable to provide evidence to back up her suit in court.

It doesn't matter what she Tweets or says to reporters. While she believes she won the election, she and her attorney(s) were unable to convince the court.

Always I go to the comments about the articles I've read to get the readers opinions.
For example, lawyers who knowingly bring up frivolous lawsuits with no evidence or substantiating facts as well as their clients should make restitution to the state, county or township where the tax dollars (and court dates) were wasted.

I'm okay with that concept. It would be a viable means to reduce frivolous lawsuits.

A comment from another news story said Kari Lake would be perfect for Trump's running mate in 2024.

A baker in the English town of Guisborough, pop. 17k or thereabouts, is reviving an ancient tradition to help his neighbors endure high energy costs.

Thousands of years ago, societies built one oven in town where everyone went to bake their bread, and now Ed Hamilton-Trewhitt from Brickyard Bakery is offering to bake Christmas cakes for anyone worried about the energy costs of turning on the oven for several hours.

“At this time of year, there can be no greater expression of love than baking the family Christmas cake, but that is being lost because of the prohibitive energy costs in running an oven for a few hours,” said Baker Ed. “At Brickyard, we want to help by reviving a tradition lost to our community for centuries, the community oven.” Anyone who has already prepared a cake can bring it to Brickyard Bakery on a Friday, and retrieve it baked and decorated the following Monday.

This is not Hamilton-Trewhitt’s first foray into good-deeding, as earlier in September, he realized the excess heat from his ovens could be used to create a community “warm lounge” for people without the means to heat their home continuously throughout the day.

This small act of kindness brought the village baker international acclaim, as he reported on his Facebook. He has also been offering pay-what-you-want cooking classes, which he described as “a tremendous success with lots of folk enjoying learning how to cook some cost effective tasty meals,” and some free hot tea or coffee to boot.

Local Sharon Bulmer remembered the tradition which Ed is trying to revive, commenting: “After the Baker had made his bread he allowed locals to bring their dishes to be cooked in the oven. Probably why we have so many casseroles etc.” “What an amazing thing to do, it used to be a way of live for families struggling when the cotton Mills and factories and coal mines were at their height. What an amazing thing to do, to give back to your customers and community. May your kindness be rewarded.”


Yummy-looking cake, Heartwarming story!

Of course, we did Nazi that coming.



Is it starting to stink yet?

NEW YORK/LONDON—A group of philanthropic funds and investors led by the Soros Economic Development Fund (SEDF), with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, is today announcing the launch of Global Access Health (GAH), a social enterprise that will seek to expand access to affordable state-of-the-art medical technology through decentralized research, development, and manufacturing in and for the Global South.

The group has financed the acquisition of Mologic Ltd, a world leading innovator in the development of lateral flow and rapid diagnostic technologies including tests that can help combat tropical diseases such as dengue, bilharzia, and river blindness, as well as for COVID-19.




Sure.

On Tuesday at the Financial Times Future of the Car conference, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and future owner of Twitter, said that he will reinstate former President Donald Trump if his $44 billion deal to purchase Twitter goes through.

Musk stated that the ban was “morally wrong and flat-out stupid” since he believes that the banning of Trump led to the amplification, rather than the silencing, of the former president’s views:

“I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump. I think that was a mistake … It alienated a large part of the country and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice.”

Additionally, Musk added that Trump’s behavior may have warranted “a temporary suspension…but not a permanent ban.”

Trump was permanently suspended from Twitter after January 6th with Twitter justifying its suspension in a statement saying that keeping Trump on Twitter could lead to “the risk of further incitement of violence”

Trump has said that he does not plan to return to Twitter and instead he has begun to utilize his own platform, Truth Social, to post his thoughts on everyday politics.

However, Trump’s actions, such as his lawsuit to try to reinstate his social media, demonstrate that the former president would like to send his daily tweets again.

Musk has emphasized that he sees Twitter as the modern public square and that the protection of free speech leads to a healthy democracy with him tweeting before the $44 billion deal went public that “Free speech is essential to a functioning democracy.”

Whether Trump decides to return to Twitter or not, Musk’s move to reinstate the 45th President’s account demonstrates Musk’s commitment to being a free speech absolutist, and Twitter may once again serve as an outlet for President Trump to reach his supporters.

I guess Americans should worry more about Yellowstone. On Russian Federal TV Putin’s national-security advisor. Patrushev, said, “The extinction of all forms of life in North America is inevitable because Yellowstone will blow up, and that’s why the US wants to occupy Russia."


Russia's fright trains are exoeriencing a problem. A decade or so ago Russia replaced most of their old box cars with imported, larger, ones of a new design from Sweden that can carry about 8 tons more than the old ones due to an improved suspension system. The wheels of the new rail cars use specialized cassette type wheel bearings with components made by the firms of Swedish SKF, Timken and Amsted Rail from the USA. The components had been shipped to Russia and assembled there. Every few months those bearings require replacement. Before February 2022 that was not a problem. The Russian National Transport Company (NTC),uses about 200,000 of these improved box cars. When Russia launched it's Special Military Operation sanctions kicked in and all 3 companies ceased ceased doing business with NTC and left Russia. Russia lacks the capability to make their own high tech replacement components for those wheel bearings (although efforts continue). By August of 2022 about 10,000 freight cars were taken out of service due to the lack of bearings and the impossibility of repair, By the end of 2023 it is anticipated more than 100,000 units will be no longer usable and the entire fleet of 200,000 rail cars is at risk.
Story:

Prigozhin, the head of Russia's Wagner Group (a private mercenary army under contract to the Kremlin) is a little upset at the commanding generals or Russia's Army. Something to do with ammunition shortages.
<To avoid upsetting some viewers the more gruesome parts of this video have been blacked out>


Mr. Prigozhin, in a different video he released yesterday (#2 of 3) stated that of the 50,000 Wagner troops he had arrived with and begun the assault of Bakhmut with last August, over 30,000 of them are now dead.

All 3 of his videos yesterday are available for view on JoeBlogs YouTube page. In one of them he has some specific things to say about the Commanding General of Russia's army. words like cowardly faggot, etc. Clearly Prigozhin is one of Putin's fair haired boys as he is still alive tonight.
