[Blaze] Authorities in Chatham County, Georgia, believe that a man was killed while attempting to steal a catalytic converter.
According to the Chatham County Police Department, the evidence suggests that the individual who was discovered dead under a vehicle had been unlawfully removing the part when the vehicle fell on him.
"Chatham County Police Department detectives believe an accidental death that occurred on Tuesday at a local business was the result of an attempted catalytic converter theft," the police department noted in a Facebook post.
"Chatham County Police Department officers were called to Prestige Auto Sales at 4513 Ogeechee Road around 9:15 a.m. on March 7, 2023, after a deceased adult male was found under a vehicle in the car lot. Evidence at the scene indicates that the man was killed while he was illegally removing a catalytic converter from the vehicle, and the vehicle fell on top of him. The deceased was identified as 32-year-old Matthew Eric Smith," the post states. "In 2022, 39 catalytic converters were stolen in 24 separate incidents in unincorporated Chatham County."

He's not the only guy stealing catalytic converters. This one's much better because it's my a$$hole cousin in the ultimate rags to riches and back to rags tale of karma, writ large.
I wish I had time to devote a few paragraphs to the whole story but in my mind, no matter how much my cousin is currently suffering in jail or elsewhere, it's insufficient punishment for all the pain and misery he's inflicted on everyone (and I mean evvvvveryone!) he came in contact with over his lifetime.
[Epoch Times] A class action suit filed in California alleges LG Electronics USA, Inc. sold gas range stoves in the United States without properly notifying customers of toxic emissions prior to their purchases. A woman who purchased an LG gas stove in October 2022 claims she was unaware of the "risks" associated with the product before purchasing.
"Ms. Sherzai relied on the representations on the marketing materials disclosing risks," read the lawsuit. "The marketing materials did not disclose or warn that the product emitted harmful pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides. Thus, at the time of purchase, Plaintiff was unaware that the product emitted harmful pollutants such as nitrogen oxide."
She claims the suit on behalf of other customers who purchased qualifying LG ranges while living in the United States during the applicable time frame. "There are tens or hundreds of thousands of class members," attorneys wrote in the suit. "The precise number of class members is unknown to Plaintiff at this time." Attorneys say members of the proposed suit "can be identified through public notice."
The suit comes as the industry faces attacks and efficiency proposals by the Biden administration that would remove up to half the current gas range ovens on the U.S. market. After they settle for a zillion dollars, the state will use that as a basis to ban 'dangerous gas ranges' and give you a tax credit to buy an electric range.

All companies and citizens should immediately stop doing business with the state of california in any fashion. Don't sell anything to a california address, don't provide any goods or services, etc.
In about 10 years, it should be safe to repopulate.

^ Give it 30-40 yeears. CA is the Crown Jewel of American Socialism and it will be propped up right up to the point every single tax dollar has been squeezed to this end.

If Ms. Sherzai is too dumb or uneducated to know that combustion in atmosphere produces NO2 then she should be deported to wherever she came from for reeducation.

Over-zealous leftist regulators are dangerous to our country. They are suffocating everything and leaving us with nothing. We are beginning to look like Communist China.

Ayesha Sherzai, MD is a neurologist and co-director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University, where she leads the Lifestyle Program for the Prevention of Neurological Diseases.
She's a little out of her lane. I wonder what motivated her to act?

Dug the 80s video game music vibe of the Chinese, Russia has the get pumped factor going.
UK. As the movie reviewers said, when the focus of the movie, or any project, is on that, the important matters of the project get sidelined.
USA. Breaking stereotypes. Also USA, lesbosn woman looks exactly like what you'd think. The rich white girl market. What garbage. Where did she come from, dad divorced? Living that THOT lifestyle? From a tube? Bought at Buttygigs R Us?

[Epoch Times] Located along the Hung Thoòng stream, one of the most magnificent subterranean grottoes known to locals has been explored here only by a select few over the past decades.
We speak of Hung Thoòng Cave, which was just recently opened to visitors in January 2023, though their numbers are being kept down to preserve the pristine area and its subterranean wonders.
Discovered in 1993 by local jungle men, the cave system was meticulously surveyed the following year by British spelunkers.
Recently, visitors set out on the very first public explorations of the spectacular hollows to appreciate their singularly sublime and ornate beauty. Beautiful photos at link.

[SciTechDaily] Tropical Cyclone Freddy, an unusually long-lived storm, wandered in the Indian Ocean for more than a month.
For more than a month, Tropical Cyclone Freddy has cast about in the Indian Ocean, bringing powerful winds and downpours to anything in its long and wandering path.
Over the course of Freddy’s 32-day journey, the World Meteorological Organization says the storm likely became the longest-lasting tropical cyclone on record. The previous record holder, Hurricane John, persisted for 31 days in the Central Pacific in 1994.
[Washington Times] The Biden administration said Sunday that it would guarantee all deposits at the now-shuttered Silicon Valley Bank but insisted the move was not a taxpayer-funded bailout, while regulators closed a second institution, New York City’s Signature Bank, amid fears of an unfolding economic crisis.
Some business leaders warned that it might be just the beginning of a national reckoning with institutions that value left-wing politics over sound investing.
Underscoring the urgency of the situation, President Biden said he will address the nation Monday morning “on how we will maintain a resilient banking system to protect our historic economic recovery.”
In a statement, the president said late Sunday night that he is pleased that his top advisers and bank regulators reached a “prompt solution” on the two shuttered banks “that protects American workers and small businesses, and keeps our financial system safe.”
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen seemed earlier Sunday to rule out a bailout of the California-based bank but said the government would work around the clock to find solutions ahead of Monday morning’s opening bell on Wall Street. Customers include household brands such as Roku and Etsy.
Later Sunday, Ms. Yellen, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Chairman Martin J. Gruenberg released a joint statement saying they had reached a “resolution” that would allow all depositors at SVB to access all their money Monday morning.
“No losses associated with the resolution of Silicon Valley Bank will be borne by the taxpayer,” the regulators said.
Mr. Biden reiterated that claim in his statement, saying taxpayer dollars are not at risk. Read the rest at the link

FDIC limits coverage to deposits <= $250,000. I'm sure taxpayers will have to somehow pay for the "uninsured" one way or the other. More government misdirection and lies...
The answer is NOT to bail out share holders, depositors, or anyone else who trusts a hopelessly flawed, corrupt, and broken fractional reserve system. Perpetuating failure with currency debasement is absurd. pic.twitter.com/fJjBKWMAAz

As the nice man said in 'Platoon', 'there's the way things ought to be and the way things are...'
In theory blanket guarantees early on should stem what could be systemic panic. But there's also a context and history immediate and not.
In '08 they selected winners and losers rather than letting all the chips fall where they may. Now, at a time when we are on the tab for Ukrainian civil servants' pensions, not to mention enough weapons to put every last of them into an Abrams before it's all over.
Let's not forget about Bankman-Fried either since we will all be dutifully cleaning that money laundering catastrophe up for the foreseeable.
Short story way too long, they over tax all of us to protect their friends and supporters from bad decisions. If it happens to aid the overall banking and economic systems, well, that's ah verrah nahhce.
Oh, and the poor saps in East Palestine can go pound sand. 23 skidoo!
Short story way too long, they over tax all of us to protect their friends and supporters from bad decisions.
"Tax"?? No they won't directly "tax" all of us. Federal authorities will simply continue to debase the US $ with continued insane spending, continued expansion of the national debt, and continued inflation. 18 months ago I could buy 10 lb of Quaker Old Fashioned Oats for $7.50, now it costs $12.98 at the same store. THAT is worse than any tax I've encountered.

#p I agree at least up to the point that it is worse than any tax, say inheritance tax for one although many are the ways the Swamp steals from producers.
[Jerusalem Post] The US Capitol rioter known as QAnon Shaman should be freed from prison, Elon Musk said in a Friday night tweet, arguing that the convicted criminal was "falsely portrayed" in the media.
Jacob Chansley, known as QAnon Shaman for his horned headdress, was sentenced to 41 months in prison for his documented involvement in the Capitol insurrection led by supporters of then-US president Donald Trump on January 6, 2021.
MUSK PRAISES QANON SHAMAN'S CONDUCT IN NEW VIDEOS
The owner of Twitter called for Chansley's release in a reply to a video circulating on social media which claims to show the QAnon Shaman calling on other rioters to go home, as "we have made our point," as he is heard saying in the video.
JUST IN: Censored video re-emerges of Jacob Chansley reading Trump’s tweet, telling protestors to GO HOME and remain peaceful..

Everyone assumed that Chansley was an idiot. He will get out, do lots of interviews and it will be confirmed that he is an idiot. Chansley is also innocent. His sentence was 4 times that of the Molotov lawyers in who’s case the government might as well have joined the defense team. In Chansley’s case the government broke the law and withheld evidence he was entitled to have. The DOJ is works against the people’s interest in all cases.

He's pretty much done serving his sentence. Who does he petition to get his time served back? GOP? LMAO. Folks still think we're operating under the Old Rules. Good luck with that, and even that won't help you.

His problem is that he pled guilty and waived appeal; that it was under duress and fraudulent conditions is irrelevant in the criminal court but I guess he could sue his lawyer and others in civil court.
[Gateway] Tucker Carlson met with his former fellow host at FOX News, Clayton Morris, at his online show ’Redacted.’ In this interview that was released on Saturday, they discussed many things including the Jan 6 tapes and all that transpired before and since that time.
Tucker Carlson at one time hosted FOX and Friends Weekend with Clayton Morris and Abby Huntsman. Tucker eventually went on to do his own cable news show at FOX News that is the top show on cable news. Abby Huntsman left FOX to become a host at The View, a toxic far-left morning show, and Morris started Redacted.
His guest this week was Tucker Carlson.
The two discussed the January 6 protests and media lies from that day.
[ValiantNews] Investigative reporter James O’Keefe went viral with his first independent release since losing his position at Project Veritas, the undercover investigative journalism outlet he founded.
O’Keefe confronted New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg over previously recorded instances in which he claimed that “they [media] were making too big of a deal [of January 6, 2021]” and claiming it was “an organized thing that it wasn’t.”
“There were a ton of FBI informants who attacked the Capitol,” Rosenberg admitted while being secretly recorded. “The left’s overreaction in some places were so over the top,” he added. Rosenberg also admitted that he and other members of the media thought the day was amusing and lighthearted.
The video has since gone viral, with more than 2.4 million views at press time, and features O’Keefe ask the mainstream media journalist to speak on the record about his claims that seem to contradict the newspaper. More at the link
Amazing. Being fired by his own board of directors hasn’t slowed him down even a little.

Ok. So, this "journalist" is so out of the loop he didn't even recognize O'Keefe? And therefor didn't connect the dots, ie, "That's James O'Keefe. I'm in trouble..."

I wish James O'Keefe many future successes in exposing the LSD Deep State in both DC and the Media.
REF:"losing his position at Project Veritas"
I look at it more like an organized Deep State Coup to remove a big needle in their plans.
So, I wonder what types of rewards the board got? Was it $$$, slilent ownership in properties, Other bigger board member seats, Family members rewarded etc. etc.
