  • Editorial: Racist attack on Cameron beyond the pale

    Kentucky attorney general candidate Daniel Cameron is a personable and intelligent man who has come a long way in 33 years of life. ... In a recent interview with the Courier Journal, Dawn Elliott, a Louisville political talk radio host and attorney who is also black, slammed Cameron for his support for President Donald Trump and told Cameron to “stop eating the ‘Coon Flakes’ the White House is serving.” This is disgusting, racist language to use against a good man who happens to be a black Republican. It’s really sad that in today’s world, if black men or women are...

    FBI Director Christopher Wray is the biggest obstacle to transparency regarding to Justice Department inspector general report on alleged surveillance abuses, according to one Republican figure. John Sununu, the former governor of New Hampshire and White House chief of staff for President George H.W. Bush, reacted Monday to South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, who said he wants "as much as possible" declassified from Inspector General Michael Horowitz's inquiry into alleged misconduct with using the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. "I think they should see it all because frankly there’s nothing there of substance that applies to any real intelligence process. It...

    The Daily Mail published an exclusive report last week with new footage that captured Prince Andrew, or at least someone who really looked like Prince Andrew, surreptitiously speaking to a young woman at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan mansion in 2010. In the video, the prince is speaking to a brunette woman, before peering around the door and ducking back inside. The Daily Mail quotes a source who says it was a "chilling" thing to watch.

    Lexington Herald-Leader ^ | August 19, 2019 | Daniel Desrochers
    Kentucky Sports Radio host Matt Jones used his radio show Monday to wade into the controversy over LEX18’s decision to fire him last week, saying the campaign of Democratic Senate candidate Amy McGrath got him pulled from his television show last month. “I knew they had done it,” Jones said Monday morning, adding that he was reluctant to say anything publicly because he didn’t want to appear whiny. He stopped short of directly blaming McGrath for his ultimate firing on Friday, unlike an article published Sunday by online publication The Intercept that cited anonymous sources who said McGrath campaign manager...

    FULL TITLE: Surrounded: Left Corners Pelosi’s Deputies, Lines Up Primaries Against Seven Democrat Committee Chairs The left side of her conference, run by the so-called “Squad” of socialist Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) is ascendant as Pelosi’s top deputies–several committee chairs–face primary challenges similar to one Ocasio-Cortez used to wipe out longtime Pelosi ally, former Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-NY) on her path to power. In fact, at least seven of Pelosi’s top confidantes–committee chairs–potentiallly face the same fate as Crowley, as primary challengers have announced campaigns against them. One powerful Pelosi...

    The prayer meeting at the small evangelical church began at 3.15pm. Some of the worshippers, including Chiu, arrived from an earlier rally at the Chinese consulate in support of Hong Kong’s protest movement. But when the 80 or so worshippers tried to leave the church at about 4.15pm they found the building surrounded by the pro-China group. Chiu said there were more than 100 protesters.

    For some Americans, going out to dinner is a treat, planned and budgeted for. For others, it’s just another Tuesday night. And Wednesday. And Thursday. And that second group of people is becoming the majority. The number of Americans who enjoy cooking is declining, while the prevalence of food delivery startups, and culinary-centric television shows grows. In the Harvard Business Review, researcher Eddie Yoon shares data he’s gathered over two decades working as a consultant for consumer packaged goods companies. Early in Yoon’s career, he conducted a survey that determined that Americans fell into one of three groups:

    The Epoch Times ^ | August 19, 2019 | Diana West
    There is a sinister war underway, a war of mental conditioning, as a new united front of communists, socialists, and liberals in media and politics attacks the American mind and soul as something immoral and hateful—something to be reviled as “racist” in every tweet and every news story, and demonized as “white nationalist” over every airwave, all to a point of reflexive consensus in the public square. The ravages of history bear witness to the heinous results of eerily similar campaigns of public revilement in the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and other totalitarian echo chambers. Should the tens of millions...

    America is the first country to ever elect a Mad King, and the way things are going, we may be dumb enough to do it twice Early evening, August, Cincinnati. The Queen City’s many bridges are sealed off, its sky is dirty with helicopters, and seemingly every cop for 100 miles is patrolling Pete Rose Way along the Ohio River. A crowd of 20,000 or more stands in punishing heat, waiting to enter U.S. Bank Arena. The evil rumor buzzing down the line of MAGA hats is that not everyone will get in to see Donald Trump. Donald Trump doesn’t...

    The alleged Christchurch shooter, who is charged with targeting Muslims and killing 51 people in March, declared himself an "eco-fascist" and railed about immigrants' birthrates. The statement linked to the El Paso shooter, who is charged with killing 22 people in a shopping area earlier this month, bemoans water pollution, plastic waste and an American consumer culture that is "creating a massive burden for future generations." The two mass shootings appear to be extreme examples of ecofascism - what Hampshire College professor emeriti Betsy Hartmann calls "the greening of hate." ...These ideas have shown themselves to be particularly dangerous when...

    Cape Cod Times ^ | August 18, 2019 | unknown
    There has been a lot of talk but limited action during the past few years regarding the issue of great white sharks in the waters off Cape Cod. Much of the talk, however, has gone on behind closed doors, leaving the public and the press to speculate on what, if anything, is being accomplished, and what shape any potential remediation effort might take. This must change. snip Although we appreciate the need for a thorough, unbiased, and even-keeled conversation on how to deal with great white sharks, the exclusion of the public and the press, even at this early stage,...
  • Russia’s Nuclear Monitors ‘Went Silent’ Following Rocket Explosion

    Moscow Times ^ | Aug 2019
    Two of Russia’s nuclear radiation monitoring stations went silent two days after a mysterious explosion that led to a radiation spike in northern Russia earlier this month. Russian officials say at least five nuclear engineers were killed during a rocket test involving “isotope power sources” on a platform in the White Sea, leading to outside speculation that the accident involved a nuclear-powered cruise missile. Four international stations designed to monitor nuclear activity had detected “an event coinciding with the [Aug. 8] explosion in Nyonoksa, Russia,” the world’s main nuclear test-ban body said on Aug. 10. The Dubna and Kirov stations...

    Oil fields, even abandoned oil fields, still contain significant amounts of oil. The researchers have found that injecting oxygen into the fields raises the temperature and liberates H2, which can them be separated from other gases via specialist filters. Hydrogen is not pre-existing in the reservoirs, but pumping oxygen means that the reaction to form hydrogen can take place. "This technique can draw up huge quantities of hydrogen while leaving the carbon in the ground. When working at production level, we anticipate we will be able to use the existing infrastructure and distribution chains to produce H2 for between 10...

(ChurchMilitant.com) - A California priest facing multiple allegations of homosexual abuse is suing a decades-old Catholic watchdog group Roman Catholic Faithful (RCF).

During the May conference, adds the statement, Brady "also discussed RCF's 2004 investigation of...

    The New York Slimes did a story as well but Im not getting a subscription to read the article. The controversial meme-famous green frog that went from friendly online fun to a symbol of hate is taking on new life in Hong Kong. Months of protest arising from the city’s worst political crisis in decades have turned increasingly violent. Protesters have endured tear gas and rubber bullets, possible gang-tied attacks, and have brought the movement to the airport to avoid clashes with police. On the streets, among the umbrellas and yellow hardhats, homemade signs and posters float above the commotion...

    President Vladimir Putin rebuked his French counterpart on Monday, saying he did not want "yellow vest" protests to spring up like in France, after Emmanuel Macron urged the Russian leader to abide by democratic principles following weeks of protests in Moscow. "We all know about the events linked to the so-called yellow vests during which, according to our calculations, 11 people were killed and 2,500 injured," Putin said. "We wouldn't want such events to take place in the Russian capital and will do all we can to ensure our domestic political situation evolved strictly in the framework of the law."...
