A severe thunderstorm buried the Mexican municipalities of Naucalpan, Atizapán de Zaragoza, Tlalnepantla and Huixquilucan, in more than 1 foot (60 cms) of hail and transforming streets into raging rivers.

There are no reports of bad injuries. More than 30 houses, an hospital and a governmental office have been flooded as streets became raging rivers. Meanwhile, more than 300 government workers have been deployed to help residents.

Before joining 'The Daily Show,' field producer CJ Hunt honed his satirical approach digging into the powerful grip of Lost Cause logic on the South. The Neutral Ground” goes beyond the surface debates to examine why some Southerners are so attached to their Civil War heroes.

Rashad Gober, a gay BLM supporter, is seemingly blaming his arrest and charge of animal cruelty for torturing three different cats on police racism. Cambridge Police announced the arrest of Gober, 31, at his home on Thursday, and charged him with four counts of animal cruelty, dating from March to May of this year. The investigation was initially opened after the discovery of a cat called Gosha on May 6th, who was huddled underneath a car, with her legs bound by masking tape. Further analysis on the deceased cat found a large percentage of her fur missing, also concluding that...

The next election will reflect the results of the 2020 Census. That means a net shift of seats from Democrat-controlled states to those governed by Republicans. As a result, CA, IL, MI, NY, OH, PA, and WV will lose one seat. Winners will be CO, FL, MT, NC, and OR gaining a seat and Texas taking home the grand prize of two new seats.How this plays out is left up to state legislatures. Republicans control the legislatures in 30 states. In 23 of those, they also control the statehouse. In Kansas and Kentucky, a Democrat governor faces a veto-proof Republican...

Should UAP be changed from Unidentified Aerial Phenomena to Unidentified ‘Aquatic’ Phenomena? Or should underwater UFOs and their bases get their own name, abbreviation, and task force? UFO expert Gary Heseltine might support the latter. He’s the vice president of the new International Coalition for Extraterrestrial Research (ICER) – a group of UFO researchers and scientist from 27 countries whose mission is “Preparing for Contact” – and he believes that contact preparation should involve wetsuits and submarines. “UFOs are often seen coming in and out of water so suspect that in our deepest oceans and trenches we may well have...

The chair of the Oklahoma Republican Party has reportedly endorsed a primary challenger to Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) over Lankford’s vote against decertifying President Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory after initially planning to vote for objections.

You know that tremendous feeling of freedom you are experiencing this Fourth of July long holiday weekend? You should write it down in your diary because it’s going to vanish away like so much powdery snow melting in the afternoon sun. Lockdowns may have run their course, the COVID-19 virus may have run its course, but the COVID-19 vaccine? Umm, nope, that’s here to stay, and the summertime Top 100 hit that’s speeding up the charts with a bullet is a little something called ‘No jab, No Job’. Catchy little tune, that. As you read this, regions in every part...

At least a third of Republican midterm candidates who have taken steps to run next year for the US Senate or House of Representatives have “embraced” former President Donald Trump’s “big lie” about his 2020 election defeat, according to a new report. In an analysis of the GOP contenders who have filed the early paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to run for Congress next year, The Washington Post’s Amy Gardner describes how a number of Republican candidates have become “increasingly focused on the last election”. Many of them, she said, have launched their campaigns running on Mr Trump’s...

Sky News contributor Daisy Cousens says with Donald Trump gone "we're going to be at the mercy of Xi Jinping". "Donald Trump was the only thing keeping those dictators, plus Kim Jong Un I must point out, in their place," she told Sky News host Gary Hardgrave. "He was not afraid to stand up to them, he called their bluff. He was able to relate to them in a way that Joe Biden couldn't relate to anyone, let's be real. "Now that he's gone, we're going to be at the mercy of Xi Jinping. If his speech was anything to...

Many of the highest-ranking members of the Biden administration came from the same shadowy firm. It is a relatively new name among revolving-door power brokers in Washington D.C., which makes it all the more surprising.Founded in 2017, WestExec describes itself as a “diverse group of senior national security professionals with the most recent experience at the highest levels of the U.S. government. With deep knowledge and networks in the fields of defense, foreign policy, intelligence, cybersecurity, international economics, and strategic communications, our team has worked together around the White House Situation Room table, deliberating and deciding our nation’s foreign and...

he U.S. oil market is tightening as commercial crude inventories are declining at a fast clip and driving wider time spreads in the WTI Crude futures curve. The curve is strengthening into backwardation, the state of the market signaling tighter supplies with the prices of the nearer futures contracts higher than those further out in time. The premium of the nearest contract to those for later delivery has been widening in recent days, suggesting that immediate supply is tightening. The spread between the cash WTI and the November contract, for example, was $3.40 early on Friday. This is the widest...

I just read Terry’s article “Alien Deception” in Skywatch that was featured at Rapture Ready on July 1, 2021. I think he has it absolutely right. I, too, would like to share some thoughts on this topic. Right up front, since I consider the Bible as the most reliable witness of all, then intelligent entities are either: A) God, the ultimate intelligence of all B) Angels (good or evil) C) Humans Now, if there really were sentient ET’s out there, I believe such a thing would be important enough to be mentioned in the Bible. I can’t think of a...

BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 2,078, June 22, 2021 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Iran, Turkey, and Russia are building a new model of bilateral ties. Unshackled by formal alliances, the trio is showing it can work together to limit Western influence while avoiding an overreliance on one another. This mixture of correlating and contradictory interests, which characterizes the new Eurasianist model of bilateral relations, is a product of the changing global order. Because Westerners tend to place the idea of cooperation among nations under a normative umbrella, whether it be an alliance or some other legal mechanism (as is often the case...
