Except from FB article:
"A person whose name was redacted took Rich’s personal laptop to his house, according to one of the newly released documents. The page also indicates that authorities were not aware if the person deleted or changed anything on Rich’s personal laptop.
The FBI came into possession of Rich’s work laptop, the bureau previously revealed.
On another page, it was said that “given [redacted] it is conceivable that an individual or group would want to pay for his death.”

I don't understand why there would be so much redaction.
Going back to the actual death of Rich, I don't understand why a Hillary connected thug would kill him AFTER the information had been made public, unless the Hillary group thought someone else had more decisive info to release and wanted to discourage them. Of course if that were true, that info would probably have come out by now by a tertiary source.
now my head hurts

[DailyWire] Democrat President Joe Biden is reportedly moving to significantly increase the number of migrants released into the U.S. who were apprehended by U.S. officials for trying to illegally enter the country.
The move comes as Biden’s border crisis has continued to worsen, with a recent report saying that U.S. officials believe they will encounter 2 million migrants illegally trying to enter the U.S. southern border this year. That is more than the population of Alaska, Vermont, and Wyoming — combined.
"The Biden administration anticipates that it will be releasing 400 migrant families into the country a day by mid-June as the influx of people encountered illegally crossing the border overwhelms its detention capacity," the Washington Examiner reported. "The 400 figure is eight times greater than the 50 families that Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement were releasing from its facilities each day early on in 2021. As of mid-March, Border Patrol agents were seeing 500 people arrive as part of a family group per day."
Illegal border crossings remained near 20-year highs for the month of April with roughly 175,000 illegal aliens projected to be taken into U.S. Customs and Border Patrol custody.
[Wash Examiner] They REALLY don't want this to get out
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow predicted "long run" consequences to the GOP-backed 2020 election audit in Maricopa County, Arizona.
The opinion host told her audience on Friday that supporters of former President Donald Trump will use the process to cast doubt on the results "in a way that none of their failed lawsuits in the past have been able to do."
Maddow also noted that the people hired by the Republican-led Arizona Senate to conduct the audit of the county now have possession of the election materials in the county that includes Phoenix, calling them "conspiracy theorists." President Joe Biden won Maricopa County, which has already undergone two prior audits finding no issues, as well as the state of Arizona.
Democrats who sued to stop the audit, arguing that it violates state election security laws, refused to pay a $1 million bond set by a judge on Friday in order for there to be a temporary pause over the weekend while the auditors, including cybersecurity firm Cyber Ninjas, have to provide documents about the review's procedures. Kory Langhofer, a lawyer for the Arizona Senate president, asked Supreme Court Justice Clint Bolick to overturn the order, but so far the duty justice has declined to intervene.
[BREITBART] Migrant minors will reportedly receive Vice President Kámala Harris Former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's former mistress, now a senatrix from California former 2020 Dem presidential hopeful, and Joe Biden's wing nut... ’s children’s book in welcome kits at a new shelter in Long Beach, Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,.
"’Whenever there’s trouble, superheroes show up just in time,’ Harris tells kids in the book, shown sitting on a cot with more basic supplies at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center, newly-converted to deal with the spiraling illegal immigration influx." the New York Post reported.
Though migrant minors will receive Harris’s book, Superheroes are Everywhere, Harris has no plans to visit the southern border, where minors are held before making their way to California.
Instead, Harris spent time at the Canaadian border, in New Hampshire, peddling President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. We get to suffer the consequences... ’s infrastructure package Friday.
"Welcome to the #WrongBorder, [Vice President Kamala Harris]!" the New Hampshire GOP tweeted. "As you travel over 2,300 miles away from El Paso, our country would be better served with an official visit to our southern border, not a campaign trip for [Hassan]."

"You can’t use a paper straw for a milkshake but maybe Kamala Harris could because of her vast experience, maybe she would be able to get that accomplished."
Snort!
"Myyyyy....milkshake brings all the boys to the yard."

Hmmm, I seem to recall a[nother] disgraced mayor of Baltimore, Pugh. She wrote some children's books, too. I hope Harris's at least is without typographical errors.
I can see one chapter now: "My Great-grandfather, the Slave Driver".
[BREITBART] During a town hall on CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for... on Friday, White House National Climate Adviser Gina McCarthy said that electric vehicles will become cheaper "when more are sold" and that we have to help consumers with either direct rebates or tax incentives. Since they all have to be subsidized via taxes or rebates to sell
McCarthy said, "The American Jobs Plan and the work that we’re doing to address our greenhouse gas emissions are really going to speak to this very issue. Because it’s not about sacrifice. It is about working with our manufacturing sector to revise it — to revive it. It’s about actually building batteries in the U.S. so the cost goes down. It’s us taking back the supply chains that we’ve lost to other countries. And it is about putting people back to work in good union jobs. There is a legitimate issue of electric vehicles that they’re not accessible to everybody. That will change over time."
Moderator Dana Bash then cut in to ask, "When will that happen?"
McCarthy responded, "One of the ways in which we’re looking at this is to work with the car manufacturers. We didn’t choose electric vehicles. They came to us, and said, you know what, electric vehicles are the future. But they’re producing them in China, not here. And so, we need to reinvigorate our manufacturing sector. We have two battery manufacturing companies that are starting up, one to serve GM and one to serve Ford, right in the United States. We’re actually proposing to do a lot of consumer rebates, we’re proposing to look at tax rebates, things to lower the cost."

electric vehicles will become cheaper "when more are sold"
Sure, sure. And when there's no more gasoline to tax, the slimy politicians will resort to taxing by the mile. And, of course, cars will have some nice, "high-tech" tracking devices in them as well. Oh, wait, already GPS in the cars...never mind.
1. How many miles do you drive every 4 days? Because the Tree Huggers predict a typical 70-90 Mile typical 40kWh Battery pack will only need to recharge it every 4 days. I have 27,500+ miles on a 14 month old car. So I avg. about 60 miles a day or almost 168% the Tree Hugger predicted mileage.
2.How much Fossil Fuel, or NUKE Power will be needed to mine, process, manufacture and charge the batteries? The USA has and estimated 250 to 280 million vehicles in the United States. This includes family, commercial, Public Transportation and Heavy Equipment types.
3. Where is the needed extra KW power coming from?
If as predicted, a Family car needs 40KW every 3 to 4 days to recharge and there are about 210 Million US family vehicles. Then that is additional 8,400,000,000kW (8,400MW) of "clean" electrical energy that needs to be produced every 4 days in 2030.
BTW: That is NOT accounting for Power Transmission Line Energy Loss of usually 2% to 5% and a typical Nuke Power plant takes 7 to 8 years from announcement, to EPA challenges, to permitting, court battles to power up.
4. What about Public Transportation?
Would you recharge a City Bus or have to purchased extra buses for each route to accommodate the required recharge periods?
SUMMARY
I feel there a lot of questions, like these, being avoided.

#14 In ibid. Update, August 27, 2020: We have contacted NDB to clarify several of their claims in this article. At this stage we believe the power density claims may relate to the power delivered by the supercapacitor part of the cell, rather than to how much energy the carbon-14 diamond itself is capable of generating. If this is the case, we may be looking at a very slow trickle charge from the diamond into the supercapacitor, and a high power output from the supercapacitor.
The properties of supercapacitors are well known: high power density allowing fast charge and discharge, long lifespan, and low energy density – meaning they can store only a small amount of energy per volume.
Such a system – a trickle-charged supercapacitor – could be useful for sustained, low-power applications, and for emergency applications like Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) that can slowly charge themselves for weeks or months between periods of discharge, but would not generate power anywhere near quickly enough for use in a long-range electric car or other applications requiring sustained high power outputs from a compact battery pack.
NDB speaks of low- and high-power versions of the cell in development, but until we see some output figures the claims are still hazy, and until we see some proof, they are of course just claims. We'll keep you updated.
Nevertheless - direct conversion of radioactivity into electricity: H. Beam Piper to the white courtesy phone!

This is a two-part sales pitch. First, we have to go with electric vehicles to save the planet. Second, it won't hurt a bit. All those oil & gas workers will find new and better jobs as soon as they learn to code.
I disagree with the first part of the sales pitch, but the second part insults my limited intelligence.

Electric. Hydrogen. My money's on libtard power.
[GOV.CA.GOV] Governor Gavin can't be Bee'd Newsom ...mayor of San Francisco as it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of Californiaas it transforms itself into Cinderland... today directed the Department of Conservation’s Geologic Energy Management (CalGEM) Division to initiate regulatory action to end the issuance of new permits for hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") by January 2024. Additionally, Governor Newsom requested that the Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Air Resources Board (CARB) analyze pathways to phase out oil extraction across the state by no later than 2045.
"The climate crisis is real, and we continue to see the signs every day," said Governor Newsom. "As we move to swiftly decarbonize our transportation sector and create a healthier future for our children, I’ve made it clear I don’t see a role for fracking in that future and, similarly, believe that California needs to move beyond oil."
Under today’s directive, CalGEM will immediately initiate the rLearned Elders of Islamking to halt the issuance of new hydraulic fracturing permits by 2024.
Under Governor Newsom’s direction, CARB will evaluate how to phase out oil extraction by 2045 through the Climate Change scoping plan, the state’s comprehensive, multi-year regulatory and programmatic plan to achieve required reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Inclusion of the target in the Scoping Plan means that phasing out oil extraction becomes a part of California’s blueprint to achieve economy-wide carbon neutrality by 2045. CARB will evaluate economic, environmental and health benefits and effects of eliminating oil extraction. CARB’s scoping plan process will be informed by cross-sector collaboration and public input focusing on benefits in disadvantaged communities, opportunities for job creation and economic growth as we achieve carbon neutrality.
[BREITBART] On Friday’s broadcast of CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for... ’s "OutFront," Congressional Black Caucus Chair Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH) stated that "it’s appalling" that coppers are trained to always shoot for the center of the body, and if Ma’Khia Bryant "had a water gun, if she had a sandwich, if she had keys, if she had a cell phone, and it looks like she was going to hit or harm someone," the police would have shot her. Beatty also argued that we don’t know whether Bryant’s intention was to kill the person she was attacking with a knife and we can’t say whether the person Bryant was attacking would have been killed.
Beatty said, "Well, I think we have to be in a better position to say that we should be saving all lives. We can’t say that the lady in the pink would have been killed. Here’s what I believe: You see in eleven seconds, four shots and a teenager on the ground dead. I think there has to be a better way. One size can’t fit all. When I hear the police say that they are trained to go to the center of the body and to shoot, here is a situation where the police had been called. They knew they were coming into a situation with girls, a teenager and two women. We should have been in de-escalation mode. It should not be that the car pulls up, an officer gets out, and within 10 seconds. Now, there was another lady that was already on the ground and Ma’Khia had the kitchen knife in her hand. I can’t say that I know that her intentions were to kill this person. I think we should be saving all lives. ... We have to learn how to de-escalate. We have to have a better practice, policy, and procedure than it is to go in and put four bullets in a child’s chest with a kitchen knife."
She added "I don’t support a system of one size fits all. I don’t support a system that you drive up and the automatic thing is to put four bullets in the chest of a 16-year-old. I don’t support one size [fits] all. I think that it’s appalling that we can have someone say, our system is to train officers to go to the center of the body no matter what. So, if she had a water gun, if she had a sandwich, if she had keys, if she had a cell phone, and it looks like she was going to hit or harm someone, the answer is four bullets, six bullets in the back, in the chest? That’s not acceptable."

Again, blame everything and everybody else for the problems in your own community. Never accept responsibility for even the most savage of behaviors on the part of those of your 'tribe'.
#5
Their position seems to be that everything they do, from killing each other in Chiraq, to knife wielding kids, to taking fatal amounts of dope, is their business and whitey (specially whitey po-po) don't need to be involved.
There are lots of other ways I can think of that we can disentangle ourselves from their "bidness."

How are those two teenaged girls who car-jacked in DC which killed the car's owner? But, I guess that is so three weeks ago...and so demographically un-PC.
[BREITBART] Gov. John Bel Edwards (D-LA) pledged Thursday to veto legislation aimed at removing the requirement for law-abiding citizens to get a permit before carrying a concealed handgun for self-defense, the News Agency that Dare Not be Named (AP) reported Thursday.
State Sen. Jay Morris’ (R-Monroe) carry bill passed a Senate committee and will soon go to the entire Louisiana Senate for consideration.
The AP reported Morris’ bill "would allow anyone 21 years or older in Louisiana — if the person isn’t barred from having a firearm because of a violent mostly peaceful crime conviction or some other legal prohibition — to carry a concealed handgun." Twenty other states have abolished permitting for concealed carry.

From Wikipedia:
He is a United States Army veteran, having served with the 82nd Airborne Division, reaching the rank of captain. As of 2021, he is the only statewide elected Democratic official in Louisiana. Edwards is considered by many political observers to be a conservative Democrat.
West Point grad. Up for reelection in 2022. I think it’s a sure bet he’ll have a serious Republican challenger. In the meantime, can the Louisiana senate muster a veto-proof majority on this thing?

I'd be willing to bet that Edwards would not have vetoed the bill unless he were certain of an override. The guy walks a tightrope better than any acrobat. (No relation to the earlier and far more entertaining former Gov. Edwin Edwards.)

[BREITBART] MSNBC host Joy Reid said Thursday on her show "The ReidOut" that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) was the "modern-day" version of segregationist Gov. George Wallace (D-AL) for signing the state’s new anti-rioting law.
Reid said, "Republican state legislatures across the country are responding to the demonstrations over George Floyd’s murder with punitive new measures intended to discourage protests altogether. In the 2021 legislative session, politicians in 34 states have introduced more than 80 anti-protest bills. The vast majority of them drafted by Republicans. So far, four Republican governors have signed the measures into law, including in the state of Florida. If it wasn’t already clear that this is a direct response to the Black Lives Matter protests, governor Ron DeSantis actually cited the Derek Chauvin trial when he enacted what he is calling an anti-rioting law."
She continued, "As NPR reports, it creates a new crime called mob intimidation. It requires anyone arrested at a protest be denied bail until their first court appearance, likely making for overnight jail stays. In other words, it would punish anyone at a peaceful protest that might be swept up alongside bad actors. Unbelievably, that law grants civil immunity to drivers who run cars through protesters if the protesters are blocking roads."

Not that they attacked cops, but I sure seem to remember the street brawls that occurred during the most recent Spring Break. No need to break down the demographics.
[BREITBART] On Thursday’s "CNN ...formerly the Cable News Network, now who know what it might stand for...

Now she wants to be somebody's vice president so she can sour grape about that too... said that "Regardless of what Ma’Khia Bryant may have been doing, there is no justification for taking her life without attempting some form of intervention," and that people are now having "conversations about who is murdered in the streets as a 16-year-old."
Abrams said that people are having to "have conversations about who is murdered in the streets as a 16-year-old. Regardless of what Ma’Khia Bryant may have been doing, there is no justification for taking her life without attempting some form of intervention, and we are watching this happen again and again."
She added that deaths at the hands of police can only change "if we change how voting happens and who gets to participate in our elections."

Why is it that this puerile rubbish even being proposed? With this Bryant creature, when in the 10 or seconds after the arrival of the officer was the even time to attempt some intervention? Would a social worker have helped, would a psychologist have helped. I know just deploy the big game hunters with tranquiliser rifles. Problem solved.
