“Rape Victim” in Kavanaugh Case Backtracks
If your memory isn’t too shot, you’ll remember the media circus that was the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice, Brett Kavanaugh.
Accuser, Judy Munro-Leighton, now claims she was never raped by Kavanaugh and never even met him.
Biden Pledges Welfare and Pensions Paid for Ukraine
You have to wonder why the United States has taken such massive responsibility for Ukraine and its citizens while Americans are still on the streets.
The insane amount of money the country has already given Ukraine if off the charts in the name of the preservation of democracy from the evils of people like Putin.
As usual, we definitely aren’t getting the whole story.
North Korea Target Practice
North Korea fired two ballistic missles off it’s East Coast earlier today. These launched are just two days after it fired an ICBM into the ocean off Japan’s West Coast which resulted in the U.S. participating in joint exercises with South Korea and then with Japan on Sunday.

“Large White Balloon” Spotted by Pilots Over Honululu Sunday Afternoon
I was attempting to get a jump on the news after the weekend Sunday evening when I came across this report on Twitter. Story is developing.
As of Monday morning, we’ve only learned a couple more tidbits:
It’s at an estimated altitude of 40,000 to 50,000 feet
The presence of the balloon is unconfirmed by officials
Situation normal. Nothing is certain.
Stay vigilant. Another balloon, another distraction.
China Considering “Lethal Support” to Russia in Ukraine Conflict
The Russia/Ukraine situation grows more tremulous as time moves on. We must never forget how many world powers have a hat in the game and which side they are on.
Should even one more country ally with either side, we could be staring down the barrel of WWIII.

We waited with bated breath all weekend because we heard there was possibility the Epstein documents might be released late Friday as the government tends to do when they don’t want you to see something.

All we got over the weekend was a tidbit that Jeffrey Epstein sent emails containing photographs of young women to Jes Staley, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase at the time. The emails are said to have been sent 2008 to 2012. They used coded language like “say hello to Snow White”.
Creeps!
James O’Keefe Resigns from Project Veritas
Around 12:45PM today, we received word that James O’Keefe has resigned from the Project Veritas which he created.
This follows a recent incident when the board stepped in placed O’Keefe on leave right after the bombshell video showing a Pfizer director talking about gain of function research at Pfizer to get a step ahead of variants.
Such testing by a pharmaceutical maker would be frowned upon, so the expose was groundbreaking.
While Everyone is Freaking Out About AI, This is What We Find Concerning
The headline:
Brain implant startup backed by Bezos and Gates is testing mind-controlled computing on humans
I don’t know about y’all, but when they start talking about implanting stuff in me, I’m done.
It’s doubly NO THANKS when I see the name Bill Gates. Thanks, Bill, for the great operating system. That was your hoorah. Fade away.
I watched my aging father balk at computers and cellphones. I will follow his lead if technology comes to a point where I’m required to implant things in my body.
Nasa Confirms Meteor in Texas
During an event that produced a sonic boom and shook homes in the Rio Grande Valley, Nasa confirmed the above meteorite discovered and photographed at the event.
The Good News
Right to Repair Movement Gains Victory
Our culture has become extremely “throwaway” over time even for things that don’t dispose very well like vehicles and electronics.
Companies like Apple and John Deere have made it increasingly difficult for DIY folks to repair their products in lieu of paying insane fees, that is if they were able to have items repaired at all.
A huge influx of legislation in favor of the right to repair is being called a “watershed moment”.
Team of Veterinarians Treat the Pets of LA’s Skid Row Residents
In a backdrop that most of us choose to ignore rampant with drugs and broken humanity, a team of street veterinarians are treating the pets of the homeless residents of Skid Row.
