Authorities Capture 66-Year-Old ‘Person of Interest' Accused of Trying to Drive Into Nuclear Facility
[Messenger] Followup on yesterday's story. Sounds like an asshole, not a terrorist
Authorities have taken into custody the 66-year-old man considered a "person of interest" after he allegedly tried to drive his vehicle into a nuclear facility, following a nearly 24-hour manhunt.

Doyle Wayne Whisenhunt of Lockesburg, Arkansas, was located inside a vacant property in Oconee, South Carolina, Friday, according to the Pickens County Sheriff's Office, WYFF-TV reported.

He was taken into custody without incident.

Whisenhunt is suspected of crashing his silver 2002 Toyota Camry through a gate at the Oconee Nuclear Station in Walhalla, South Carolina, Thursday evening, according to a news release.

He was identified as a "person of interest" by the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office at a news conference Friday, according to the outlet.

During the incident, security activated the plant’s pop-up barricade, prompting Whisenhunt to allegedly attempt to strike officers with his car before driving through an alternate fence, police said.

Authorities suspect he tried to hit another security officer with his vehicle before exiting the plant and driving to a private property in Pickens County, where the property owner allegedly fired off warning shots to scare Whisenhunt away, WYFF-TV reported, citing the sheriff's office.

Whisenhunt’s abandoned vehicle was recovered in the woods Friday afternoon, police said.

He is wanted on drug and weapons charges in Arkansas and remains at large, according to authorities.
Not anymore
Sheriff Mike Crenshaw told WYFF-TV there is no evidence the incident is domestic terrorism.

Depraved nurse allegedly confessed to trying to kill 19 nursing home patients
Be kind to your kids. They pick your extended care facility.
[FOX] A former Pennsylvania nurse, arrested in May for the murder of two patients, has confessed to trying to kill more than a dozen other people, according to authorities.

Heather Pressdee, 41, of Natrona Heights, allegedly admitted to trying to end the lives of 19 additional patients with toxic doses of insulin at five different nursing homes, according to a complaint.

"Pressdee is accused of administering excessive amounts of insulin to these patients, some of whom were diabetic and required insulin, some of whom were not. In total, 17 patients died who had been cared for by Pressdee," according to a press release from the Pennsylvania Attorney General.

She is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, 17 counts of attempted murder and 19 counts of neglect of a care-dependent person over a five-year period. Her alleged victims range in age from 43 to 104.

-Great Cultural Revolution
Goyim Defense League founder sentenced to 30 days for antisemitic littering
[IsraelTimes] White supremacist Jon Minadeo II says prosecution charges against him are attempt to censor free speech

A prominent white supremacist has been sentenced to 30 days in jail in Florida for distributing antisemitic flyers — though the content of the material did not factor into his penalty.

Jon Minadeo II, the founder of the Goyim Defense League, was found guilty of littering in a jury trial Wednesday in Palm Beach County. Minadeo was arrested in March while distributing antisemitic literature out of the back of a U-Haul truck.

Distributing antisemitic flyers is a core activity of the Goyim Defense League, which Minadeo founded in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, in 2018. The group was responsible for nearly 500 incidents of antisemitic propaganda in 2022, according to the Anti-Defamation League, making it one of the most prominent American antisemitic groups. Its members typically put antisemitic flyers in plastic bags and leave them, often weighted down with rocks, on public and private property.

Minadeo relocated to Florida last year, saying that he thought it would be more hospitable to his group’s operations.
Guess not, huh? You made the same mistake about Florida culture and Florida’s governor that the Democrats do. How stupid you all are.
In fact, a new Florida state law, intended to curb neo-Nazi
...adherents of a philosophy that was seen even at the time as pure evil, which makes them either consciously and purely evil, or attention-seeking ratbags. Pick one, or both....
activity, makes it a felony to distribute hateful or intimidating materials on private property.

The law was passed after Minadeo’s arrest, so it did not factor into how he was prosecuted. He told a local news outlet from court on Wednesday that he thought his prosecution on littering charges was inappropriate.

"I do believe they’re trying to censor free speech by using tactics like littering," he said.

Minadeo and his group have made headlines in the past for holy warrior activity including picketing synagogues in various states, flying antisemitic banners and projecting antisemitic messages on sports stadium, and says he has previously been arrested by Polish authorities for promoting antisemitism at the site of the Auschwitz death camp.

Neo-Nazi groups like the Goyim Defense League have pounced on the rise of anti-Israel activism in the wake of the country’s war with Hamas
...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",...
, the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
-ruling terror group which massacred 1,400 people in Israel on October 7 — most of them civilians, slaughtered amid horrific atrocities — to try to sway new members.

-Short Attention Span Theater-
Beer Hall Putsch in Munich
[History.com] From November 8 to November 9, 1923, Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) and his followers staged the Beer Hall Putsch in Munich, a failed takeover of the government in Bavaria, a state in southern Germany. Since 1921, Hitler had led the Nazi Party, a fledgling political group that promoted German pride and anti-Semitism and was unhappy with the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, the peace settlement that ended World War I (1914-18) and required many concessions and reparations from Germany. In the aftermath of the failed “putsch,” or coup d’état, Hitler was convicted of treason and sentenced to five years in prison. He spent less than a year behind bars, during which time he dictated “Mein Kampf,” his political autobiography. The putsch and Hitler’s subsequent trial turned him into a national figure. After prison, he worked to rebuild the Nazi Party and gain power via legal political methods.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to move to Miami from Seattle
[GEO.TV] Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has announced to move to Miami from Seattle citing personal reasons and mentioning his desire to be closer to his parents and Blue Origin's Cape Canaveral operations.
It has nothing to do with the deterioration of Seattle’s quality of life following the Progressive project to defund the police and elect Soros district attorneys. Really.
In an Instagram post, the billionaire expressed his attachment to Seattle, where he founded Amazon in his garage in 1994 and grew it into a global retail giant.

The post also featured a video of Bezos in Amazon's first office in Seattle, reflecting on the company's journey.

He captioned the post: "Seattle has been my home since 1994 when I started Amazon out of my garage. That’s my dad behind the camera in this video, touring Amazon’s first "office." My parents have always been my biggest supporters.

They recently moved back to Miami, the place we lived when I was younger (Miami Palmetto High class of ’82 — GO Panthers!) I want to be close to my parents, and Lauren and I love Miami. Also, Blue Origin’s operations are increasingly shifting to Cape Canaveral. For all that, I’m planning to return to Miami, leaving the Pacific Northwest.

I’ve lived in Seattle longer than I’ve lived anywhere else and have so many amazing memories here. As exciting as the move is, it’s an emotional decision for me. Seattle, you will always have a piece of my heart."

Bezos's private space company, Blue Origin, has been shifting its operations to Cape Canaveral, Florida, making proximity a key factor for his relocation.

Amazon's rapid expansion in Seattle significantly transformed the city's landscape, turning it into a tech hub with highly paid tech workers, upscale dining options, and soaring rents.

Bezos's move is expected to have both personal and business implications as he divides his time between Miami and Blue Origin's activities.

#2  ...There's another article out there that points out that when Washington state passed its rich peoples' tax, they were expecting $3B and change - and Bezos would have been coughing up between twenty and forty-five percent of that.

I don't really have any hope that the politicians have enough self-awareness to admit what happened, but it will be fun to watch them twist in the wind.

#3  Comments in Seattle Times following this announcement were hilarious; predictably about paying no taxes, running away from societal responsibilities, etc. what hasn’t been said, as the lovely Mrs. Ret. pointed out over dinner, are the forthcoming secondary and tertiary effects: who doesn’t think relocation offers have been or will be made to the Amazon top dogs? And gradually the center of operations will also move south? One only needs to look at Boeing; only manufacturing, or more accurately, assembling remains; all other executive functions are gone as well as selling off of real estate. Their footprint in WA state has shrunk quite a bit, and I suspect that as soon as the Navy P-8 build is complete, all 737 production will shift to Everett and the Renton waterfront property also sold.
Sorry about the divert, but I think Amazon will be a sequel to this.

China-Japan-Koreas
From Hamas to Iran to China: Follow the Money
BLUF:
[American Thinker] BRI
China’s Belt and Road Initiative
has become global. As of April 2023, 148 countries have signed memorandums of understanding, have joined (very interesting map here) China’s economic scheme. Twenty-six low-income countries and thirty-nine lower-middle-income countries have joined, just under half of all BRI participants. Forty-one upper-middle-income countries and thirty-three high-income countries constitute over half of the BRI participants. Members include U.S. allies. BRI also works with 18 E.U. countries and 9 G20 countries. So China won’t miss Iran if Iran somehow avoids BRI’s consequences.

Here’s China-Iran’s connection to Hamas. Palestine, which is not an independent country, has also signed.
Interesting...
Now China, Iran’s largest trading partner, wants to be on both sides of the conflict. It didn’t condemn Iranian funder Hamas or declare that Israel has a right to self-defense. It wants to play peacemaker. Yi discussed the war during a recent visit to Washington, D.C., pledging to have Beijing use its relationship with Iran to prevent the conflict from spreading. Why? Philip Andrews-Speed, a specialist in China’s oil policies, said, "[China] is highly exposed to the current instability in the Middle East, especially if it escalates." China is calling for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war because it depends on stable energy markets to fuel its economy.

Of course the bumbling idiot who occupies the Bully Pulpit threw U.S. weight behind China.

Economy
Possible Softening of the Economy: latest BLS data
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 150,000 in October, and the unemployment rate changed little at 3.9 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in health care, government, and social assistance. Employment declined in manufacturing due to strike activity.
...

The change in total nonfarm payroll employment for August was revised down by 62,000, from +227,000 to +165,000, and the change for September was revised down by 39,000, from +336,000
to +297,000. With these revisions, employment in August and September combined is 101,000 lower than previously reported.
---------------
With the continuing recovery from the pandemic (many teachers not in workforce during the worst of it) and the effects of the mega fiscal bills, some $5 Trillion or so, the latest of which, The American Rescue Plan has yet to be completely spent, it is difficult to restrain the excess in the economy but maybe the Fed's tightening is finally having an effect.

Government Corruption
'Killer Jab?' 24% of Americans Say They Know Someone Who Died from COVID Vaccine, 42% Would Sue Big Pharma: Poll
[Western Journal] A new survey may explain why so few people are lining up to get a COVID vaccine this year.

The Rasmussen poll found that 24 percent of respondents said they knew someone who had died from side effects of the shot — and 42 percent expressed an eagerness to join a hypothetical class-action lawsuit against the vaccine makers.

Sixty-nine percent said they "don’t know anyone who died from being vaccinated against the virus," according to Rasmussen’s Thursday report on the poll.

The survey was conducted among 1,110 American adults between Oct. 26 and 30. It had a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.

"Killer Jab?" Rasmussen asked in the title of its report.

The survey asked three questions:

  • "Do you know someone personally who died from the COVID-19 virus?"
  • "Do you know someone personally who died from side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine?" and
  • "If there was a major class-action lawsuit against pharmaceutical companies for vaccine side effects, how likely would you be to join the lawsuit?"

    Forty-seven percent said they knew someone who had died of COVID.

    #1  COVID-Fentanyl link? Genetic targeting ?

    NLM Snippet: We find that the pandemic significantly increased the monthly overdose deaths. The worst effects were seen in the poor, urban neighborhoods, affecting Black and Hispanic communities. However, more affluent, suburban White communities also experienced a rise in overdose deaths. A better understanding of contributing factors is needed to guide interventions at the local, regional, and national scales.

    #2  In roaming the net, I have noticed many discussions covering items like.

    Was the Virus released:
    * to reduce Senior population issues.
    * to allow Upper class elites more control wiggle room.
    * create global panic to allow GOV's to enact/impose civil rights & economic restrictions.
    * to allow 2020-2021 Election fraud processes to be used?
    * modify DNA of the infected.
    * modify social norms.
    * part of a 110 year population control and trimming cycle (ref: Spanish Flu, WWI 1912-1923)
    * to pave the way for a VAX designed to adjust birth rates, trim certain demographics, and adjust DNA and or IQ.
    * then there were those comments using a collection of several items listed above.

    Summary: The general anger expressed in the comments.
    IF the general population ever learns the Pandemic was in fact a deliberate, planned release. Those involved will need to leave earth.

    Coronavirus Cases: 109,206,560
    Deaths: 1,181,293

    Would that point to a Virus built to target certain demographics?

    Remember this is what is being posed and commented on around the NET.

    However, my Tin Foil hat wonders about the overall impression of the Pandemic and VAX held by the general public. Because I am looking 2 miles down the road, in how it might be used and abused by some to form a fringe group. Knowing such fringe groups are usual funded by certain known Elites to cause civil unrest and push political agendas.

    Yes, BIO weapon. My thoughts from Day-1, or nearly so.

    #12  Personal opinion is it was a bio-weapon released pre-maturely. And I do not believe the numbers from US or China. And lastly, I think the early panic was that they really had no idea what the man-made virus would do or mutate into.

    #13  /\ Likely correct on both counts. More weight given to the 'unknown' mutations I'd wager.

    Mutation Beta testing and documentation continues.

    #14  There are still excess deaths in the countries that used the poison VAX.

    #15  Nearly 100% of Americans know someone who died from Covid or the Vax. That equation indicates to me that Tony Fauci and many other people should be in jail.

    #16  Why assume that a bioweapon is intended to kill? Are there no other conceivable uses?
