The launch of a new RISC-V software association makes open-standard integrated circuit design and open-source software even more of a challenge for the US government’s efforts to stop the development of Chinese high-tech and bend Europe to its geopolitical will. On May 31, Linux Foundation Europe announced the RISC-V Software Ecosystem (RISE), which it described as, a new collaborative effort that brings together global industry leaders committed to accelerating the availability of software for high-performance and power-efficient RISC-V cores [processing units] running high-level operating systems for a variety of market segments. Those market segments include cloud computing, data centers, automobiles,...

Good Morning! Todays report details the latest Russian war crime - blowing up the damn

Serbs have until June 8 to surrender all of their unregistered weapons in a push by the government to disarm society following back-to-back mass shootings. Two mass shootings in consecutive days in early May rocked the Balkans nation, where the types of mass shootings seen so regularly in the United States rarely, if ever, happens. A 13-year-old boy armed with his father’s pistol killed nine people, including eight children, at an elementary school in Belgrade on May 3. Just one day later, a 20-year-old killed eight and injured 14 in a rampage through a town just south of Belgrade. In...

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie began his return to the national political stage with an opening message: 'Go big' – then flashed his ability to go for the jugular. He denied running for president as a spoiler but said he did want to take down Donald Trump – who he hit for 'coddling' Vladimir Putin, running 'failed casinos' and 'reprehensible' bartering of Ukrainian aide that was the subject of Trump's second impeachment. He said Americans knew Trump was 'full of it' when he said Mexico would pay for the border wall, then vowed not to make the mistake of...

“The modern world, and especially the history of the present century, can only be understood in terms of the unusual activity of the devil and the “principalities and powers” of darkness…In a world of collapsing institutions, moral chaos, and increasing violence, never was it more important to trace the hand of the “prince of the power of the air.” If we cannot discern the chief cause of our ills, how can we hope to cure them?” The Christian Warfare, Martin Lloyd-Jones

It has always been astounding to me that people think for even a second that their government makes decisions to help the people—that has never been the case.If a government’s decision helps anyone it is always an after effect…or an afterthought or a collateral unintended benefit. The primary intent is for power, control, and money…to satisfy individual pursuits and goals of the global narcissistic/god-complex elite.Anyone (which turns out to be most everyone) who supports this and thinks their government, or their nation, is operating in the people’s interest is signing their own death warrant.

@JordanSchachtel I am truly amazed by the Ukrainian Navy's ability to sail undetected for 10k miles roundtrip & blow up the Nord Stream pipeline with their Navy Seals! I trust Washington Post & CIA, which assures me that this is totally plausible, despite Ukraine not having a functioning Navy.

It was bracing that Ukraine launched its counteroffensive against Russian invaders as we celebrate the anniversary of the 1944 D-Day landings this week. This assault could turn the tide of the battle for Ukraine, just as the Allied assault on the Normandy beaches altered the trajectory of World War II. Military campaigns are rarely all or nothing, but this one comes close. If Ukraine can drive back an already shaky Russian army, it stands a chance of forcing Moscow to bargain for an end of its failed invasion. But if Ukraine fails, it would be a bitter blow to the...

Mark 12:13-17 Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus enunciates a principle that is an implicit resolution of the vexing problem of religion and politics: “Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.” God is the deepest source and inspiration for everything in life, from sports to law to the arts to science and medicine. Everything comes from God and returns to God. So what about our famous question of religion and politics?Politics is not in a realm separate from the religious; rather, its deepest ground is spiritual. Thomas Aquinas held that law comes from the...

Allegations that Joe Biden partook in a $5 million bribery scheme involve Ukraine where his son scored a lucrative energy job and were first presented to the FBI by a reliable and well-paid informant back in 2017, House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer told Just the News on Tuesday evening.Comer made the bombshell revelation just a day after reviewing an FBI FD-1023 form that memorialized the informant’s allegations, and two days before he plans to hold a vote in Congress to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt for failing to provide a copy to his committee as demanded...

Jack Dorsey, the billionaire tech investor, followed Gerald Celente’s forecast that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be the next president of the United States. Dorsey tweeted out a video of Kennedy being interviewed by Fox News, saying that he can defeat President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Dorsey tweeted Sunday, “He can and will.”

Shocking surveillance footage shows the moment at least eight suspects engaged in a heated attack on two 7-Eleven clerks - after they refused to sell a cigar to an underage girl. Now being slammed as a 'senseless act of violence', the Saturday night attack happened at one of the chain's stores in small-town Texas, and saw the female staffers struck several times and pelted with snacks from the shelves. The violence started around 9pm - after one of the clerks seen in the footage refused to sell the tobacco product to a member of the party who was under the...

In March 2020, Dr. Howard Zucker had his name on the infamous ‘Cuomo Death Order’ that has been blamed for the deaths of thousands of nursing residents. The New York State Health Department’s order stated that “no resident shall be denied re-admission or admission” to a nursing home “solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.” It even banned nursing homes from testing incoming patients to prevent cases from being detected. In nursing homes that complied with the order, residents swiftly began dying. By the end of the pandemic, 15% of the state’s nursing home residents were dead....

Researchers found that drinking a 60ml turmeric drink twice a day allowed players to return to their pre-game fitness faster than those who did not. Playing soccer causes muscle damage in players and an inflammatory response—and their rapid recovery is crucial to optimizing their next performance and reducing injury risk. The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin—known to have anti-inflammatory properties—and previous studies have found that curcumin supplementation can reduce soreness following muscle-damaging exercise. This process appears to be aided by a reduction in pro-inflammatory proteins in the blood, known as cytokines, which increase in response to a stress, such...

New York City health officials on Monday unveiled the city's first public health vending machine, featuring free drug paraphernalia and anti-overdose meds for addicts. The big blue box was installed in Brooklyn on Monday and will offer potentially life-saving Naloxone to drug users who have overdosed on opioids, along with instructions on how to use the drug. Instead of snacks or sodas, the vending machine also has hygiene kits and safe sex kits for anyone with a New York City ZIP code to claim. Officials say similar machines in the U.S., Europe and Australia have demonstrated effectiveness at reducing overdose...
