[H/T Grey_Whiskers]On X.com Cleta Mitchell @CletaMitchell Alright, kids. Here it is. Released today by the FBI, nearly 200 pages of formerly classified FBI documents, posted today on the House Judiciary Committee website and proves that the "state law cases" with the fake criminal charges against Pres Trump, Trump lawyers, Trump electors...and supporters were NOT state initiated AT ALL. These were ALL proxies for the feds...the BIDEN feds.... The FBI with the blessing of the Biden DOJ and no doubt the Biden White House initiated and conducted the entire investigation of hundreds and hundreds of RNC, Trump campaign employees, consultants, lawyers,...

A truck hauling rhesus monkeys, described as “aggressive” and initially reported to be infected with various pathogens (e.g., hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID), overturned on Interstate 59 in Mississippi.

In the early, early morning Tuesday, in the aftermath of Game 3, Blue Jays manager John Schneider was quick to remind reporters that the defending champion Dodgers “didn’t win the World Series, they won a game.”

MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell — long known for his hot temper — had a conniption over the popularity of CNN political commentator Scott Jennings, who frequently advances pro-Trump and conservative viewpoints in panel discussions. In a lengthy monologue, an irate O’Donnell railed against one of his network’s primary competitors for employing somebody with different viewpoints. “And now CNN eagerly pays a Trump supporter to lie on CNN every day and night for Donald Trump. CNN did this during the first Trump presidential campaign and presidency. CNN regularly paid Trump supporters to lie about Trump on CNN,” O’Donnell ranted. “But the...

Thomas Lukaszuk, a former deputy premier of Alberta who circulated a petition to make it official policy for the province to stay in Canada, says it has more than 456,000 signatures. The final tally is far greater than the required 294,000 signatures to initiate a possible referendum in Alberta. The "Forever Canadian" petition started as a counter to separatists who want a referendum on Alberta independence and asks: "Do you agree that Alberta should remain within Canada?" "The number of signatures don't surprise me because I know that the vast majority of Albertans are proud Canadians," Lukaszuk told reporters on...

Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio on Tuesday warned that a bubble could be forming around megacap technology in the U.S. amid the artificial intelligence boom, but said that it may not end until the Federal Reserve reverses its current easy policies.“There’s a lot of bubble stuff going on,” Dalio told CNBC’s Sara Eisen in an exclusive interview from the Future Investment Institute in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. “But bubbles don’t pop, really, until they are popped by tightness of monetary policy and so on.”Added Dalio, “We’re going to be more likely to ease rates than to tighten rates.”

Climate deniers use scientific aesthetics to reinforce and legitimize their message. At the same time, their main opponents, the climate activists, are portrayed as emotional and irrational. This has been demonstrated by researchers from the Universities of Gothenburg and Amsterdam, who have studied how climate deniers communicate online. "Disinformation is not just about incorrect facts, but about how these facts look and feel. In today's digital media landscape, messages are spread through images, memes and visual narratives that influence us in an instant, before we even have time to think. By understanding the aesthetic logic behind climate denial, we can...

Am I the only one whose font size has shrunk to miniscule on 2 different devices? And nothing seems to fix it in my settings or my account settings. The forum is useless to me like this. Bracing for finger pointing and ridicule.

Germany’s globalist political class is once again talking about going to war with Russia. Officials in Berlin have suggested that Europe should “prepare for conflict,” a statement that’s raised alarms across the continent. But while Germany rattles sabers, another European Union member is already at war, not with Moscow, but with its own citizens.Romania, one of NATO’s key Eastern members, has quietly constructed an enormous internal surveillance system under the banner of “national security.”Documents obtained under Romania’s Freedom of Information law reveal that from the 2024 presidential elections through September 2025, the country’s Supreme Court issued 2,843 national security warrants....

The commercial features an “expert” interrupting a white Danish couple as they flirt with each other. He explains to them that the history of war in Denmark introduced foreign DNA into their gene pool which “protected them from disease”. He then compares their relationship to inbreeding and suggests they find new partners with more “exotic” genetics. The woman then smiles as if she’s intrigued by the idea.

Been watchin the world series since 1960. This game is right up there with the best of them!

Freeper Petronski has passed on from this mortal coil. Over the years and from time to time, he and I have engaged in witty reparte and fun exchanges. He is survived by his wife cyborg, among others. He will be missed. Godspeed, FRiend.

What they're saying: Sanders, who rallied with Platner last month in Maine, said he still thought Platner was the best candidate to win. Citing Platner's deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, Sanders said Platner "went into a dark period in his life. I suspect that Graham Platner is not the only American to have gone through a dark period."He added: "What he did was he expressed his darkness on the internet. Probably not a brilliant thing to do, alright? And he said things that are stupid, things that were hurtful. He has apologized for them." I think what we have got...

A star chef from the show "Top Chef" tried to raise outrage over the demolition for President Donald Trump's White House ballroom renovation, but he was mocked and ridiculed instead. Tom Colicchio posted a photograph he said was from the East Room of the White House, which is being renovated to make way for a large ballroom. "My wife and I in the East Wing. I can’t believe it is gone," he posted on his official social media account. However, as many quickly noted, the photograph was not from the East Room at all, but actually from the Diplomatic Reception...

Just felt a massive (for us) shake through the house and way outside, heard continuous rumbling noise almost like a distant explosion. Like an aircraft jet engine nearby taking off. Anyone here with news?

In A Nutshell Sleeping with the lights on is linked to a 42% higher risk of heart attack compared to sleeping in darkness, based on a study tracking nearly 90,000 adults over 9 years. The brightest bedrooms also showed higher risks for heart failure, coronary artery disease, irregular heartbeat, and stroke. The connection held even after accounting for diet, exercise, smoking, and genetics, suggesting light at night is a factor worth managing for heart health. Simple fixes like blackout curtains, turning off devices, and keeping bedrooms dark may help protect your heart. Maybe it’s the glow from your alarm clock,...

Obviously both are important and require a massive shift away from the status-quo, but if you had to pick one, which is more critical for the well-being of America?I'd personally think immigration reform is slightly more important, but understand if that's not as critical to some others.
