The DNC Convention should be lit
With all the Hamasnik demonstrations nationwide, I have been surprised than no local feral gun-totin' yoof have shot up one or several of them. They've been hitting almost every other spontaneous gathering of groups: birthday parties for children, church-sponsored carnivals, back yard cookouts, etc.
[Gateway] It seems that the OD death of Matthew Perry may allow the Los Angeles PD to tear open the underground Hollywood drug rings, in a sweeping action that may end up ensnaring some household names in the investigation into the ’Friends’ star’s fatal ketamine overdose.
The criminal investigation is being led by the LAPD along with the DEA and the US Postal Inspection Service, and they are now reportedly preparing to announce possible charges, which could include involuntary manslaughter.
[APNEWS] Shootings and other violence during the extended Fourth of July weekend have left at least 33 people dead, including 11 in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... , and injured dozens more nationwide, authorities said.
The Fourth of July historically is one of the nation’s deadliest days of the year. A flurry of shootings around the holiday a year ago left more than a dozen people dead and over 60 maimed. And a year before that, seven people died in a mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade near Chicago.
Violence and mass shootings often increase in the summer months, with more people gathering for social events, teens out of school and hotter temperatures.
Chicago ’in state of grief’
In Chicago alone, 11 people had been killed and 55 maimed in shootings as of Friday morning during the extended July Fourth weekend, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. The violence included a mass shooting on Thursday that killed two women and an 8-year-old boy.
The recent violence "has left our city in a state of grief," Mayor Brandon Johnson ...Hizzonner da Mare of Chicago. He was elected in April 2023 to replace the disastrous Lori Lightfoot and immediately set about out-Richtering her. A member of the Democratic Party (naturally), Johnson previously worked as a social studies teacher in the city's stellar public schools system. He helped organize the 2012 teachers strike. Prior to becoming Da Mare, he served on the Cook County Board of Boodlng Commissioners from 2018 to 2023... said.
A community rally was planned for Friday evening, and the city will beef up police presence over the weekend, Johnson said in a statement.
[MAIL] A picture has emerged of the completely wrecked Dodge Charger that was carrying Minnesota Vikings player Khyree Jackson and two others when they tragically died in a car crash.
Jackson, 24, was killed along with former high school teammates Anthony Lytton Jr., 24, and Isaiah Hazel, 23, in a three-car accident in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.
His mother, Ebbony Jackson, confirmed the news to TMZ on Saturday, saying she received a call about his death in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Jackson and Hazel were both pronounced dead at the scene by emergency medical services, Maryland Police said. Meanwhile, Lytton was transported to hospital where he later died.
Images show the completely disfigured and squashed Charger being taken away from the scene by a tow truck. The flattened vehicle appears to have had its back part completely torn off. Already declared alcohol was a factor

I've mentioned it before - this is why I'll never own a car with 8 cylinders, especially a f'n Dodge (which, ironically, I loved as a kid growing up).
#4
Reading the article is seems like Jackson wasn't at fault for causing the accident. Not saying he might not have been able to pull out of it if he weren't partying at 3:00 am.
#9
Some of that damage was from the fire department cutting the bodies out of the wreckage. I wouldn't expect that anyone at The Daily Fail to know that.
[Daily Caller] A former United States Space Force officer said Saturday morning that diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is enforced by a "separate chain of command" at the Air Force Academy.
Former Space Force Lieutenant Colonel Matt Lohmeier, who was relieved of command after he spoke out against DEI initiatives in the military in 2021 and says he lost his pension, told guest host Joey Jones on "Fox and Friends Saturday" that the academy "has diversity and inclusion cadet officers" who "report to a separate chain of command." Jones had referred to an Arizona State University study that found service academies encourage reporting "private conversations that challenge DEI precepts," asking Lohmeier if he had similar experiences.

"In fact, come to think of it, I did experience that. A fellow commander informed me that they’re aware of my kind of politics and that they’d be happy to turn me into the base commander if I continued to privately criticize our diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives," he said. "But this problem has grown far beyond what I experienced, personally and professionally in the military workplace."
"My own alma mater, the U.S. Air Force Academy, has diversity and inclusion cadet officers who wear a special insignia within their cadet squadrons, they wear purple braided rope over the shoulders and they report to a separate chain of command other than their military chain of command, relating to diversity and inclusion issues," he continued. "It reminds one of Soviet political commissars that have been established both in the Soviet Union and in other Marxist revolutionary efforts throughout the last century."

The USSR had a name for this, "Politruk" aka
the political commissar class. A group which held Political Power and Rank above the commanders to whom they monitored and snitched on.
[G&G] Throughout the first half of the twentieth century, my paternal great-grandfather operated a general store in the unincorporated tobacco farming community of Hyman, South Carolina, that sold everything from "penny candy to coffins," my grandmother once said. Today, the old building at the intersection of North Pamplico Highway and Big Swamp Road remains, but the store itself is long gone, an echo of the past like so many other rural country stores replaced by Dollar Generals, Walmarts, and the might of Amazon.
Despite that corporate creep, a handful of stalwart enterprises endure across the South. In South Carolina, Cooper’s Country Store is still a popular pit stop between Columbia and the Grand Strand’s sandy shores, nearly a century after it opened. The two-story shop sells gas and other grocery basics, but it’s the locally cured country ham (sold whole or by the slice) that most folks seek. My parents often make the hour-and-a-half drive up from Charleston just to secure one of their famed hams, which they’ll slice and layer inside homemade biscuits, tailgate fodder for Clemson football games. In rural Gravel Switch, Kentucky, Penn’s Store—the nation’s oldest country store still run by the same family—is beloved by the G&G contributor and poet Maurice Manning.

[Breitbart] Some grocery stores in Alabama and Oklahoma now have American Rounds vending machines which allow customers to buy ammo for their guns while getting a cart full of groceries for their families.
Cleveland.com reported on the vending machines, noting they are currently in six locations and “[use] artificial intelligence technology to verify a buyer’s identification and age through card scanning and facial recognition software.”
One of the locations is a Fresh Value store in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
Terry Stanley, COO of the Fresh Value, said, “We’re always looking for ways to give our customers another reason to come visit our stores. Anything we can do to help them make their shopping trips easier, based on the feedback we’ve gotten from customers today, they are so excited about us having this ammo kiosk.”
American Rounds, the company which manufactures and distributes the ammo vending machines, has a statement on its website explaining that their system of purchase age and eligibility checks “ensures that all transactions comply with federal and local regulations, maintaining the highest standards of responsible sales.”
Additionally, American Rounds pointed out, “We are committed to providing a secure environment that customers can trust for their ammunition needs.”

[LI] U.S. State Department and Pentagon say there are plans to ’disrupt’ new stations.
In April, my colleague James R. Nault noted that our country was facing major delays in the construction of Naval ships; meanwhile, the Chinese were going full steam ahead in expanding their fleet.
It appears the Chinese have also been busy constructing new spy stations. While that is not surprising, the location is rather disturbing.
Satellite imagery has reportedly identified four of these stations in Cuba.
Images captured from space show the growth of Cuba’s electronic eavesdropping stations that are believed to be linked to China, including new construction at a previously unreported site about 70 miles from the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, according to a new report.
The study from the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington-based think tank, follows reporting last year by The Wall Street Journal that China and Cuba were negotiating closer defense and intelligence ties, including establishing a new joint military training facility on the island and an eavesdropping facility.
At the time, the Journal reported that Cuba and China were already jointly operating eavesdropping stations on the island, according to U.S. officials, who didn’t disclose their locations. It couldn’t be determined which, if any, of those are included in the sites covered by the CSIS report.

[LI] Somebody watched the debate and interview Taipei Times: "Chinese aircraft flew into airspace to the north, center and southern part of Taiwan."
Amid looming doubts about President Joe Biden’s mental fitness, Taiwan is reporting Chinese military activity around the island nation. Taiwanese military detected Chinese fighter jets and warships near its territorial waters, Taiwan’s media reported Saturday.
Dozens of Chinese warplanes breached the Taiwanese air defense zone from multiple directions in last 24 hours. Taiwan’s "Ministry of National Defense (MND) tracked 30 Chinese military aircraft and nine naval vessels around Taiwan" between Friday morning and early Saturday, the news website Taiwan News reported. "Of the 30 People’s Liberation Army (PLA) aircraft, 23 crossed the Taiwan Strait median line and entered the northern, southwestern, and southeastern air defense identification zone (ADIZ), according to the MND."
The Chinese military provocation comes as Beijing works on advance battle plans to capture the island. In late May, the China’s People Liberation Army (PLA) conducted "two days of war games around Taiwan in which it simulated attacks with bombers and practiced boarding ships," Reuters reported. "The Chinese military’s Eastern Theatre Command, whose forces carried out the drills, released a video on its social media accounts on Saturday called "A six-word rhyme on smashing independence", set to stirring martial music."
The war game was followed by a "joint combat readiness patrol" by Chinese fighter jets and warships near Taiwan. "There has been a significant increase in Chinese military flights since Thursday, according to Taipei, as Beijing conducted a "joint combat readiness patrol" near the island," Germany’s DW TV reported June 24. "From Thursday to Sunday, Taiwan reported detecting 115 Chinese military aircraft in the vicinity, with some coming as close as 31 nautical miles (57 kilometers) from the island’s southern tip."
The newspaper Taipei Times reported Saturday:
The Ministry of National Defense yesterday reported renewed Chinese military activity nearby with another "combat patrol," as the government called on Beijing not to escalate tensions after the seizure of a Taiwanese fishing boat.
On Tuesday, China Coast Guard officials boarded and detained a Taiwanese fishing boat for illegally operating in its waters, in what the head of the National Security Bureau on Thursday said might be an act of psychological warfare.

[FOX] John Deere, the world’s largest seller of tractors and crop harvesters, on Friday announced another wave of layoffs, telling around 610 production staff at plants in Illinois and Iowa that they will be out of a job by the end of the summer.
The company is slashing around 280 workers from a plant in East Moline, Illinois, while another 230 employees are being let go at a factory in Davenport, Iowa. About 100 production employees at the company’s Dubuque, Iowa, plant will also be impacted. All layoffs are said to be effective from Aug. 30, the company tells FOX Business.
The layoffs are being made due to reduced demand for John Deere's products from those factories.
The company says it generated $10.166 billion in profits last year.

Simply put, John Juan Deer is doing what it thinks it needs to do to max its profits.
The USA with all of its taxes on top of taxes and Eco lawyers always seeking $$$$ for something. The USA is not their best ROI business nation anymore.
Besides, with their NAFTA move to Mexico to reduce operating issues (Labor/Fed Reg/Taxes) & costs. It stands to reason they'd, just like the Auto industry, would start dumping US workers as they move.

Wonder if they factored in the cost of corruption, protection money, the feather bedding of non-productive members of the ruling caste, and, of course, ransom money for executives and their family members into their bottom line.
[FoxNews] Authorities are attempting to link the gold heist to international gun trafficking, citing firearms recovered in raids
A police department in Canada believes over 6,500 gold bars have disappeared overseas after being stolen from an airport last year.
The incident, which took place in April 2023 at Toronto’s Pearson International airport, was perhaps the most valuable gold heist in history. Police reported more than CA$20,000,000 worth of gold was stolen in the form of 6,600 serialized bars. Clearly moved directly to NYC via cartel channels.
"We believe a large portion has gone overseas to markets that are flush with gold," lead investigator Det. Sgt. Mike Mavity said at a June 21 meeting of the Peel Police Service Board, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
He continued, "That would be Dubai, or India, where you can take gold with serial numbers on it, and they will still honor it and melt it down." ...
Mavity said he believes the gold was handed over to another party and melted down very shortly after the heist. QED
Suspects in the case include a jewelry store owner, a former Air Canada manager, and a warehouse employee. A total of nine individuals have been arrested in connection with the case. Poss melted and cast as solid aircraft wheel assemblies for transport.
The suspects reportedly used a completed bill for a seafood pick-up to forge paperwork that was given to a warehouse attendant. Unlikely transported as lobster bisque.
Authorities believe a small amount of precious metal was melted down in the basement of a Mississauga jewelry store immediately following the heist. Only CA$90,000 has been recovered from the heist.
Police have attempted to draw connections between the stolen gold and cross-border gun trafficking, citing dozens of firearms seized from suspects in the investigation.
Two fully automatic weapons and several untraceable firearms were recovered, but authorities have not yet offered substantial evidence of connections to the illegal gun trade.
[Headline USA] Decomposing human remains have been found wrapped in a sleeping bag and left out on the sidewalk for trash collection in Manhattan, New York City police said Saturday.
The grisly discovery happened around 5 p.m. on Friday.
Police received reports of a suspicious package with a foul smell outside of a building in the Kips Bay neighborhood.
Responding officers found the remains in a sleeping bag left alongside other garbage bags set out on the curb for garbage pickup, according to police.
Video and photos shared on social media show what appears to be a full-sized body covered in a dark sleeping bag that was further wrapped in black trash bags.
The department has not released any details about the possible victim.
The victim’s age, sex, and size are all unreported at this time.
The medical examiner’s office is conducting an autopsy to determine the cause of death and whether foul play is suspected, police said.

It had to be a sleeping bag. He wouldn’t fit in the paper container for lawn waste.

[ZERO] While the entire world - or rather Democrats - are shocked to learn that Biden's dementia is not a vast right wing conspiracy as they themselves had claimed prior to the catastrophic Trump-Biden debate, and that their eyes and ears had not in fact been deceiving them for the past three years, last week a Florida judge dropped a bombshell 150-page transcript related to a 2006 grand jury investigation of Jeffrey Epstein (readers may remember him if not his clients, none of whom it would appear are notable enough to be criminally charged), revealing that prosecutors were aware that Epstein sexually abused underage girls.
As Breanna Morello explains, the transcripts reveal that the deal between Epstein and prosecutors came two years after they learned that Epstein engaged in statutory rape of teenage girls, and resulted in minimal punishments for the billionaire human trafficker. In the end, Epstein was charged with only one count of solicitation of prostitution from a minor, despite evidence of multiple rapes and a pattern of behavior. Thanks to this slap on the wrist which meant he would be free shortly after, Epstein went on to sexually exploit children until his "suicide" in 2019 and made hundreds of millions from child trafficking with countless billionaires and political oligarchs, ferrying them back and forth on his Lolita Express to Epstein island, where countless underage girls were raped by the true ruling class which to this day remains immune from the legal system.
"Details in the record will be outrageous to decent people," Judge Luis Delgado wrote, adding that the transcript has (further) diminished public perception of the criminal justice system, which in recent months is best known for getting hijacked to serve Biden's failed crusade to incarcerate Trump before the election. The filings were released after a 2024 Florida law made it legal to do so for transcripts related to Epstein.
As noted above, the 2008 charges boiled down to a count of solicitation of prostitution from a minor, despite investigators’ knowledge of Epstein’s pattern of behavior, including numerous incidents of rape. The charge was significantly less severe than the evidence warranted, especially since investigators had knowledge of Epstein's pattern of behavior, including numerous incidents of rape. The limited charge ignored the full extent of Epstein's criminal activities.
The filing, which itself further unveils prosecutorial missteps that enabled Epstein’s later conduct, came years after the lenient, and delayed, sentence was criticized.
“The story of how Jeffrey Epstein victimized some of Palm Beach County’s most vulnerable has been the subject of much anger and has at times diminished the public’s perception of the criminal justice system,” Delgado wrote "Diminished the public's perception." Not certain if that is actually possible.
"How do Traffickers Control Victims?
Traffickers employ a variety of control tactics, the most common include physical and emotional abuse and threats, isolation from friends and family, and economic abuse. They make promises aimed at addressing the needs of their target in order to impose control. As a result, victims become trapped and fear leaving for myriad reasons, including psychological trauma, shame, emotional attachment, or physical threats to themselves or their family."
[Washington Examiner] It’s been more than a week since President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance rocked Democrats’ hopes to keep former President Donald Trump out of the White House.
While concerns from his own party have surged over the president’s cognitive decline, Biden has refused to heed calls to undergo neurological testing.
On Friday, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president rebuffed questions that he should consider listening to top Democratic leaders and take a cognitive test.
"Look. I have a cognitive test every single day. Every day I have that test. Everything I do," Biden told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos during a 22-minute interview. "You know, not only am I campaigning, but I’m running the world. "
It appears unlikely that the president will bow to pressure anytime soon. Should he change his mind and submit to neurological testing, he would turn to Dr. Kevin O’Connor, who has been the president’s personal physician since 2009.
Here are three things to know about the doctor who has the power to change the course of the 2024 election.
[GEO.TV] In a harrowing incident, a school's headmaster allegedly raped a 10-year-old female student in the city's Moach Goth area on Saturday. "She was dressed provocatively. What else could I do?"
A case has been registered at the Mochko Police Station on the complaint by the victim's father, said the police officials.
The father, in the first information report (FIR), said that three of his daughters take tuitions from the headmaster.
"The headmaster called and asked to send our daughters on June 21, saying he wants to give them eidi. However,
ars longa, vita brevis... when I refused, the headmaster insisted after which I sent my daughters," said the FIR.
Following the incident, the girl also underwent medical examination. The police said they are waiting for the report.
The victim's parents and local residents of the area protested at the Hub River Road against the suspect not being arrested. Due to the protest, the traffic was affected.
In a similar incident last month, a principal of a private school was arrested for torturing and harassing a female student. He was accused of attempting to rape a Class 10 student at the school near Orangi Town.
The principal had been sending obscene messages and harassing the victim for several days.
During the incident, he allegedly turned the CCTV camera towards the ceiling and coerced the student to commit adultery, threatening to fail her in her matriculation exams and ruin her future if she did not comply.

[GEO.TV] The chief organiser of an Indian preacher's event where a stampede killed 121 people this week surrendered to police on Friday, a lawyer for the preacher said, after police had launched a manhunt.
Devprakash Madhukar was named a key suspect in an initial report registered by police under charges including attempted culpable homicide. Police had announced a reward of 100,000 Indian rupees ($1,200) for information leading to his arrest.
AP Singh, lawyer for self-styled godman Bhole Baba, said Madhukar was the main organiser of the Hindu religious event on Tuesday attended by about 250,000 people in a village in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh. District authorities had permitted an event of only 80,000 people.
"He has surrendered from Delhi. We are not seeking an anticipatory bail," Singh told news hounds. He denied any wrongdoing by the event's organisers and said Devprakash was getting medical treatment in a hospital after the stampede.
The preacher said on Saturday he was saddened by the incident and his aides would help the injured and families of the dear departed.
"I have faith that anyone who created the chaos will not be spared," he told Indian news agency ANI, in which Rooters has a minority stake.

Joel Osteen referred all inquiries to Dr. Tony Evans.
[LIFESITENEWS] The Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) announced July 5 that it had declared former U.S Nuncio Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò to be guilty of "schism" and automatically excommunicated.
In a statement issued without warning to the Holy See press corps, the DDF stated that its Congress met on July 4 to decide against Viganò. The statement read:
On 4 July 2024, the Congress of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith met to conclude the extrajudicial penal process referred to in canon 1720 CIC against the Most Reverend Carlo Maria Viganò, titular Archbishop of Ulpiana, accused of the reserved delict of schism (canons 751 and 1364 CIC; art. 2 SST).
His public statements manifesting his refusal to recognize and submit to the Supreme Pontiff, his rejection of communion with the members of the Church subject to him, and of the legitimacy and magisterial authority of the Second Vatican Council are well known.
At the conclusion of the penal process, the Most Reverend Carlo Maria Viganò was found guilty of the reserved delict of schism.
The Dicastery declared the latae sententiae excommunication in accordance with canon 1364 § 1 CIC. The lifting of the censure in these cases is reserved to the Apostolic See. This decision was communicated to the Most Reverend Viganò on 5 July 2024.

He's publicly blistered the current Pope as illegitimate and said one could not simultaneously be in communion with this Pope and the Holy Catholic Church.

A lot of this relates to Theodore McCarrick. He was accused of basically running a homosexual cult. While he was stripped of his priestly offices, the other members of his cult seem to have gotten little or no punishment. Vigano vocally and in writing made this a point of discontent.
