Russia has abandoned 20,000 troops near Kherson in the face of a Ukrainian counter-attack, the regional governor has claimed. Vitaly Kim said Russia is relocating command posts on the west bank of the Dnipro River to the east, leaving 'stupid orcs' - his term for Kremlin soldiers - behind. Ukraine has already blown up all three bridges under Russian control connecting the two banks, meaning its soldiers on the west side have no easy way of resupplying, reinforcing, or retreating as Kyiv's men continue their advance. Kim, the governor of Mykolaiv which sits on the west bank, said Monday that...

The data was brought...

When Russia invaded Ukraine in February, the Kremlin inadvertently put its military forces in an unsustainable position, ordering them to take on more operations than they could bear. It had nearly all its soldiers surge simultaneously and rapidly into Ukraine to fight along multiple fronts. It did so without taking necessary protective measures, such as clearing routes of explosives. It had its forces advance at an unsustainable pace. As a result, Russian troops were vulnerable to ambushes, counterattacks, and severe logistical problems that cost the military enormous numbers of soldiers and equipment. That initial error was caused by the Kremlin’s...

I would like to let you know that I have tested positive for #COVID19. I am thankful to have received four doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, and I am feeling well while experiencing very mild symptoms. I am isolating and have started a course of Paxlovid.

Aug. 14—A man who was arrested Aug. 4 for allegedly committing an incestuous and forcible rape of a child in Franklin County that day had been released less than three months before from the Morgan County Jail with zero bond on a charge of forcible sexual abuse of a child. The Morgan County district attorney and the circuit judge who authorized the defendant's release from jail disagree on who, if anyone, was to blame. Raymond Matthew McKinney, 35, was arrested Dec. 5 after being indicted by a Morgan County grand jury for sexual contact with a child under the age...

The 2020 Election was one of the worst events in US history. It will be remembered as the day the US constitution was broken and fraudsters stole our election. In less than three weeks all evidence from that election will be destroyed. The 2020 Election was arguably the most damaging event in US history and certainly the most horrific in modern times. The US Constitution was discarded as villainous and power-hungry people planned for and eventually stole the election. Then they worked hard to cover it up. It took the Democrats and their senile candidate with a lot of help...

A mountain rescue team has been called up to Britain’s highest mountain to save a dog that refused to go any further. Maggie, a 35kg Turkish Akbash dog, was unable to continue the descent from Ben Nevis with her owners because her paws were in pain. The three women walking with the dog had tried carrying her down the 4,413ft mountain but were forced to admit defeat around the halfway mark. Lochaber Mountain Rescue came to the dog’s rescue on Saturday night, despite already facing multiple callouts for other emergencies.

A poll about whether the raid was ok.

President Joe Biden’s communications staff members worry he could lose some of his political “momentum” in August while on vacation. A memo made public from political advisor Jen O’Malley Dillon and senior advisor Anita Dunn to White House chief of staff Ron Klain warned the White House must redouble its efforts to prevent an August “slump” facing the president. “For many administrations, August can be a momentum killer,” the memo warns. “For this team, August is going to be a momentum builder as we come out of last week…” Biden’s staff is eager to spin the latest spurt of legislative...

The World Economic Forum shared a report last week outlining a plan to mitigate “the dark world of online harm” by using human and artificial intelligence to censor bad actors who produce and promote child abuse, disinformation, and hate speech. Inbal Goldberger, vice president of Trust and Safety at ActiveFence, a company that detects malicious online content, published an op-ed on the global organization’s website, offering a solution to online abuse. Such solutions would enable a blend of AI and so-called “subject matter experts” to “detect nuanced, novel online abuses at scale, before they reach mainstream platforms.” Goldberger said an...

VIDEOSometimes I like to just get away from politics such as will happen when I go on my Caribbean cruise sans internet connection in a few weeks. Such was also the case when I clicked on a video about how Andy Griffith's hometown of Mt. Airy, North Carolina, reinvented itself into the fictional Mayberry which aired last year on CBS Sunday Morning. Although I expected a nice nostalgic trip down memory lane, Ted Koppel ruined it with his absurdly misplaced obsession with President Donald Trump. Yes, Ted, you definitely suffer from TDS but why do you insist on displaying the...

When is a False Flag False? By J. Johnson Just a passing question for the false flag waivers out there (no insult intended): As there is always talk around here about that ubiquitous 2nd civil war, yet any attack (Cincinnati FBI, self-Jihad at Capitol Hill, etc.) are immediately labeled ‘false-flag’. So what happens when a false flag – isn’t? Yes, I know the drill. “the false flag will be used to as the excuse round up guns, conservatives, money, and eventually make what’s left of us eat bugs…”, and such musings in Freeper land and elsewhere. I get it. Well,...

Physician, lawyer, mother, and founder of America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) Simone Gold is serving a 60-day prison sentence for a nonviolent misdemeanor — unlawful entry to and remaining in a restricted area of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper also ordered her to pay a $9,500 fine, and she will remain on federally supervised release for one year following her prison term. She described her arrest days after the January 6 incident as a “violent assault,” saying that an “FBI SWAT team raided my home with assault rifles and a battering ram.” She...

There’s an election hack built before the 2020 election that can instantaneously swap the bubbles on your ballot. The “filled in” bubble of your candidate is moved to the hackers preferred candidate, and swapped out with that empty bubble. The change is made before the “ballot Image” is stored to the election server, and before it’s tabulated. By using the voter’s own marking style & penmanship, these changes are undetectable to the human eye. Here’s the scenario. Using a blue pen you fill in the “Trump” bubble on a ballot. Election officials insert this ballot into a tabulator. Those pixels...

For over a year, we've heard Democrats wailing about existential threats to "democracy!" Curiously, this has happened while these same Democrats in Congress have worked hand-in-glove with their fellow Democrats in the Justice Department to disregard all norms to hunt down and attempt to destroy President Joe Biden's chief political rival, former President Donald Trump, as well as Trump's top aides and even his political supporters.

* CIA Director William Burns formerly headed a prominent D.C. think tank while it employed Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation has found. * Carnegie employed at least 20 CCP members while Burns was president, four of whom were brought on during his tenure, the DCNF found. * “If any Communist Party members have easy access to any sensitive information whatsoever, they’re certain to get a visit from Chinese intelligence,” a former vice-presidential national security adviser said. ============================================================== Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns formerly headed an influential D.C. think tank while it employed undisclosed...

(Translation) Eleven days after being placed under house arrest at the Bishop's Palace by the National Police, Nicaraguan Bishop Rolando Álvarez, a critic of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega, called on the Catholic faithful via Facebook to pray for his release. The bishop, five priests, three seminarians, and two laypeople remain held in the bishop's residence since August 4 accused by police of supposedly attempting to organize "violent groups". This is the most recent in [a series of] clashes between the Catholic Church and the Ortega regime which have spanned 43 years.

Paivi Rasanen must make God laugh. The 27-year member of Finland’s Parliament on trial for tweeting a Bible verse confounds so many pagan slogans. She’s a mother of five children and grandmother of 10 who didn’t need abortion to simultaneously pull off two demanding careers: medicine and politics. An empathetic woman who eagerly shows pictures of grandbabies on her phone and expresses concern for strangers’ travel plans, Paivi (pie-EE-vee) also refuses to subjugate her reason to emotional manipulation. She holds fast to Christian teachings about sex as reserved exclusively for lifelong marriage between one man and one woman, for which...

Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” former FBI agent Peter Strzok weighed in on the department’s recent raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Trump described the raid as putting his home “under siege” in a move “that has never happened to a President of the United States before.” Host Joe Scarborough asked Strzok if there was any reason the American people should not trust the FBI. Strzok said that “the American public should trust what the FBI is doing” in seizing documents from Trump’s home.
