Our problems are internal mostly. We can bring manufacturing back home, secure the border, deport illegals, stop getting involved in forever wars, etc. Its not a foreign enemy making us suffer from all that.
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE THING HAS HAPPENED TO OUR COUNTRY,
It is imperative that we take control of the Government with very strong people ...strong enough to get rid of the element that is the Left since they have infiltrated everything.
Ayn Rand where are you?
We can do all that, but we can’t do it with voter fraud taking part in every election.

Hollywood hates conservatives, and I will not support an industry that hates everything I stand for. I have not been to a theater since the last century. I’ll pass.
I am happy for the actors to go on strike. All mostly woke character plot lines. No matter how much “action” and CGI... No Thanks!!!
The Castle Bravo Disaster - A “Second Hiroshima”
On March 1st, 1954, the United States detonated the country’s first thermonuclear or fusion bomb at Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands, a small coral reef and 23 islands almost equidistant from Australia, Japan, and Hawaii. In the days and weeks following the blast, the United States would pay out millions of dollars in settlements, thousands of islanders would be evacuated and re-evacuated, and the Japanese public would deem the test “a second Hiroshima,” a comparison no citizen would dare make lightly.

Joseph Rotblat -
Sir Joseph Rotblat KCMG CBE FRS (4 November 1908 – 31 August 2005) was a Polish and British physicist. During World War II he worked on Tube Alloys and the Manhattan Project, but left the Los Alamos Laboratory on grounds of conscience after it became clear to him in 1944 that Germany had ceased development of an atomic bomb.
His work on nuclear fallout was a major contribution toward the ratification of the 1963 Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. A signatory of the 1955 Russell–Einstein Manifesto, he was secretary-general of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs from their founding until 1973 and shared, with the Pugwash Conferences, the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize “for efforts to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international affairs and, in the longer run, to eliminate such arms.”
Rotblat felt betrayed by the use of atomic weapons against Japan, and gave a series of public lectures in which he called for a three-year moratorium on all atomic research. Rotblat was determined that his research should have only peaceful ends, and so became interested in the medical and biological uses of radiation. In 1949, he became Professor of Physics at St Bartholomew’s Hospital (”Barts”), London, a teaching hospital associated with the University of London. He remained there for the rest of his career, becoming a professor emeritus in 1976.

At the Hanford Site where they made the Plutonium, most of the workers didn’t know what they were involved with. Most people just worked on specific tasks that couldn’t be pieced together to the whole.
Most of the workers lived on site, and all of their household repairs, etc. were taken care of by government workers. That gave the government access to search their living quarters for any spies. I heard they even bugged some homes.
I did some work out there and mentioned it to my mom.
“Oh - one of our friends worked at Hanford during the war. Making airplane wings for bombers!”
“Um - no mom - if he was at Hanford he was working on the atom bomb.”
“No - I remember it was airplane wings. Because of all the electricity from the big dam for the aluminum.”
“Well, I believe you (mom had an amazing memory) and that is no doubt what he told you, and he may even believed that he was involved in making airplane wings - but he wasn’t.”
Hi.
Of course.
I served on a nuclear missile base in TU that didn’t exist. If we’re were killed, we officially died in Beirut LB.

Oppenheimer’s story is told in non-linear style, shuffling back and forth to different periods in time, his own tale shot in color and told in first person, the later trials explaining how it all happened from various points of view shot in striking 65MM black-and-white film — particularly Robert Downey Jr.’s cagey Lewis Strauss, who was the founding commissioner of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and later a Cabinet appointee as Secretary of Commerce in the Eisenhower administration.

Saw it last night
It was very very good
Yes it does
It dismisses it was deep
But spends much of the movie on the commie sympathies of the German and Austrian expat Jewish commie sympathetic scientists who were arguably 70% of the Manhattan project top 30-40 crew
You think todays skinny suits are more handsome
On fat America?
I’m the movie the calculations that it won’t explode fall upon one of the theorists
Not Teller
Though he comes up with the possibility
