This isn't good. Russia talks nuking the U.S.

The Sun: Russia threatens to wipe out the entire US with just four Satan II missiles.

A chilling moment on Russian state TV on Monday saw hosts issue the latest in a long line of threats, this time warning Putin could "destroy the entire east cost of the US" with just two missiles.

In footage from Russia's flagship propaganda show, a member of Russia's parliament boasts about the nation's military might, before also labelling [sic] 2 million Ukrainians as "incurable."

The politician, Alexie Zhuravlev, was joined on the talk show by fellow MP and Russian-state mouthpiece Yevgeny Popov, the host of the Rossiya 1 channel show.

The lawmaker claimed that two of Russia's Sarmat 'Satan 2' missiles would destroy the entirety of America's east coast - before adding it would take just "two missiles for the west coast" as well.

"Four missiles and there'll be nothing left.["]

I didn't hear Biden talk about this today, or any reporter asking him anything on it. He and the MSM were too busy pushing their gun control agenda on law-abiding, gun owning Americans. That's much more important than nuclear war.

No Joe, a 9mm bullet won't, "blow the lung out of the body."

Breitbart: FACT CHECK: Biden Falsely Claims 9mm Bullet Will Blow ‘Lung Out of the Body’.

CLAIM: On Memorial Day 2022 President Biden claimed a 9mm bullet will “blow the lung out of the body.”

VERDICT: False.

The 9mm round is widely popular for concealed carry because it has effective stopping/penetrating power without significant recoil. The round’s stopping power is also attractive for law enforcement, but that power does not translate into blowing organs out of the body.

Breitbart News spoke to a Navy SEAL (ret.), who is a ballistics expert, and his response to Biden’s statement was, “No way.”

We spoke to a federal agent with 15 years experience in the field, and his response was “bullsh*t.”

We spoke to another individual who has been a federal agent for nearly 20 years and was a local police officer for years before that, and he responded to Biden’s statement by saying, “Not possible.”

Biden also said, "you can't buy a cannon", but you can.

The ever-changing narrative of the teacher that propped open the door at Robb Elementary, who didn't prop open the door but did but then closed it but it didn't lock.

Here's what we've been told by the media about that propped open door:

The door wasn't propped open. Yahoo (Insider) Archived

The door was propped open. Twitchy Archived

The door was propped open but the teacher closed it before Salvador Ramos entered the building but the door didn't lock. ABC News (Archived)

On that last link, ABC News, if the door didn't lock after the teacher closed it, how would Salvador Ramos know it would or wouldn't lock after closing it, whether it was before or after it was propped open and when he entered? We need answers on how it became locked for the police. I can only presume it was an automatic lock security door. That's the amazing impenetrable door that kept law enforcement agencies from gaining entrance for almost an hour.  

The best building security system in the world isn't secure if a door or window is propped open or if a door doesn't lock either automatically or manually.

Teachers teach their student to follow the rule and guidelines. This teacher failed at following the school's security protocol by propping open this door.

We don't blame a campfire on the fire itself when campers fail to extinguish it properly, we blame the campers. We don't blame the liquor companies or the automaker when a drunk driver causes an accident, we blame the driver. We don't blame the scalpel in a medical malpractice lawsuit, we blame the surgeon.

We don't know if Ramos would have found another entry point had this door not been propped open, or closed but not locked. Maybe he would have, maybe not.

The reaction of various law enforcement agencies on the scene took too long to neutralize the shooter but this may have never happened if the door had not been propped open, or if it had been, then closed and locked.

PoliticusUSA is outraged these questions are being asked.

Reminder: PoliticusUSA is a rabidly Far Left Extremist site. Sources: Media Bias and All Sides.

Who is this teacher? Radio Patriot (Archived) is asking the same.  

The Libs and the Media have been using the term "Weapons of War" in describing legal U.S. firearms. This is a distraction. There are numerous stories about the online and in-person behavior of Ramos on Social Media. Many red flags were (intentionally?) ignored.

ABC News Radio's Aaron Katersky reports the Uvalde City PD and the Uvalde ISD police are no longer cooperating with the Texas DPS.

Every democrat and RINO is echo-chambering,"we want to get to bottom of this". Then this teacher needs a third degree grilling in all the investigations.

The teacher who propped open the door needs to answer to the people of Uvalde and the entire U.S. for their actions. I hope this person doesn't return to teaching. The person failed and children died because of this. 

Most likely, we will never be told the whole story or the truth.

WHO backtracks, says Monkeypox pandemic "unlikely."

Reuters (Yahoo; Archived): Unlikely monkeypox outbreak will lead to pandemic, WHO says.

LONDON (Reuters) -The World Health Organization does not believe the monkeypox outbreak outside Africa will lead to a pandemic, an official said on Monday, adding it remains unclear if infected people who are not displaying symptoms can transmit the disease.
[.]
The WHO is considering whether the outbreak should be assessed as a "potential public health emergency of international concern" or PHEIC. Such a declaration, as was done for COVID-19 and Ebola, would help accelerate research and funding to contain the disease. (PHEIC...YAY ACRONYMS! -DD).

Asked whether this monkeypox outbreak has the potential to grow into a pandemic, Rosamund Lewis, technical lead for monkeypox from the WHO Health Emergencies Programme said: "We don't know but we don't think so."

"At the moment, we are not concerned of a global pandemic," she said.
[.]
...there is any spread of the virus by people who are not symptomatic, she added.

"We really don't actually yet know whether there's asymptomatic transmission of monkeypox - the indications in the past have been that this is not a major feature - but this remains to be determined, she said.

"At the moment..."

Well, the last most recent "moment" (a few days ago!), WHO told us Monkeypox is the 'tip of the iceberg'.

WHO site states the first case of human monkeypox was in 1970.

Fifty-two years to study monkeypox and the best the WHO can now say is, "we don't know but we don't think so"....and..."it remains to be determined."

Does WHO need another fifty-two years to reach any any degree of a conclusion one way or the other? What are teh scientists doing, well, other than being paid very well to be uncertain?

A toss up between the WHO and the UN on which is the most worthless organization.

Irish Man Loses His Memory 10 Minutes After Having Sex With Wife: Report.

NDTV: Irish Man Loses His Memory 10 Minutes After Having Sex With Wife.

Limerick, Ireland: In a bizarre incident, a 66-year-old Irish man was rushed to a hospital with short-term amnesia after having sex with his wife.

The anomalous case was analysed in the May issue of the Irish Medical Journal, published Wednesday, and doctors explained that gender was the trigger for short-term amnesia-formally known as Transient Global Amnesia (TGA).

The Mayo Clinic defines TGA as "an episode of sudden transient global amnesia that is not caused by more common neuropathy such as epilepsy or stroke".

In the case of this Irish man, the medical journal reported that he lost his short-term memory 'within 10 minutes of sexual intercourse.

After their sexual intercourse, the man took notice of the date on his mobile phone and he 'suddenly turned distressed that he had forgotten his wedding anniversary the day before.' Although the man had celebrated the special occasion the previous evening, he had no clue about it.

"He repetitively questioned his wife and daughter over the events of that morning and the previous day," according to the journal.
[.]
The man had previously experienced TGA in 2015, and this incident also occurred shortly after having sex. Thankfully, he later regained his short-term memory.

Realizing that he may be suffering from another TGA episode, the man went to a local emergency room. There he was found by neurological examination to be "completely normal". After a while, his memory returned.

Make up your own joeks. 🤣

Survey Says Next Global Pandemic will be...MONKEYPOX!

RT: Monkeypox cases ‘just tip of iceberg’ – WHO.

The global health agency warns many more cases of the virus have yet to be diagnosed.

The hundreds of cases of monkeypox that have been diagnosed in the past month across Europe, North and South America, Israel, the UAE and Australia may be just “the tip of the iceberg,” WHO Epidemic and Pandemic Preparedness and Prevention chief Sylvie Briand warned on Friday during a press briefing.

Briand suggested there could be “many more cases that are undetected in communities,” as monkeypox does not immediately present with definitive symptoms. Infected individuals initially complain of flu-like ailments such as a fever, muscle aches, and swollen lymph nodes before the telltale chickenpox-like rash appears on the face and body. While there is no known cure for the virus, it usually recedes within two to four weeks.

BBC: What is monkeypox and how do you catch it?

Most cases of the virus are mild, sometimes resembling chickenpox, and clear up on their own within a few weeks.

Monkeypox can sometimes be more severe, however, and has been reported to have caused deaths in west Africa. 

CDC (Archived): Monkeypox Transmission.

Transmission of monkeypox virus occurs when a person comes into contact with the virus from an animal, human, or materials contaminated with the virus. The virus enters the body through broken skin (even if not visible), respiratory tract, or the mucous membranes (eyes, nose, or mouth). Animal-to-human transmission may occur by bite or scratch, bush meat preparation, direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, or indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated bedding. Human-to-human transmission is thought to occur primarily through large respiratory droplets. Respiratory droplets generally cannot travel more than a few feet, so prolonged face-to-face contact is required.

Ooooooh, there are those two scary words again: "Respiratory droplets." 

We've seen this movie before. Nobody liked it the first time and no one is buying a ticket for the sequel.

Whoops! Biden is now starting forest fires!

RT:  Government admits to accidentally starting massive wildfire.

Fire service admits it caused two blazes that merged into New Mexico’s largest-ever fire, destroying hundreds of homes.

President Joe Biden’s administration has identified the culprit behind the two blazes that merged last month to become the state of New Mexico’s biggest wildfire on record: the government itself.

The two fires were both started accidentally by the US Forest Service (USFS), the agency said on Friday. Both fires were traced to controlled burns that were done by the USFS to prevent wildfires.

OH DAVE- you can't believe RT, it's RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION!

Okay. Then maybe you'll believe the U.S. Forest Service's admission:

U.S. Forest Service: Fire Investigators Determine Cause of Calf Canyon Fire.

SANTA FE, NM – May 27, 2022 – Forest Service fire investigators have determined that the Calf Canyon Fire on the Pecos/Las Vegas Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest (SFNF) was caused by a pile burn holdover from January that remained dormant under the surface through three winter snow events before reemerging in April. A holdover fire, also called a sleeper fire, is a fire that remains dormant for a considerable time.

People who rebound with COVID-19 after Paxlovid may be highly contagious, study "suggests."

Boston Globe (Archived): People who rebound with COVID-19 after Paxlovid may be highly contagious, study "suggests."

The findings come as federal regulators issue warning about Paxlovid rebound.

Federal health regulators on Tuesday issued a warning that COVID-19 patients who have taken the antiviral treatment Paxlovid may experience a rebound and test positive again two to eight days after initial recovery.

The warning comes more than a month after droves of patients began swapping accounts on social media of COVID rebounds after taking Paxlovid.
[.]
It also said that people with a recurrence of COVID-19 symptoms, or a new positive test after having tested negative, should isolate again for at least five days. It added that people should wear a mask for a total of 10 days after rebound symptoms start.
[.]
“This is not rare, otherwise why are we seeing these clusters?” said Dr. Michael Charness, chief of staff at the VA Boston Healthcare System and co-lead author of the study, which analyzed COVID infections in 10 patients, ages 31 to 71 who were fully vaccinated and had received at least one booster shot.

Two jabs of the clotshot followed by two booster clotshots. Then take Paxlovid if you "rebound." If you do "rebound" (so...no more "breakthrough cases? That term is now memory holed?), isolate and wear a mask. What a crock. It's an IQ Test at this point, people.

If you're buying "Teh Science" at this point, you're a lab rat walking on two legs.

Salvador Ramos: Many red flags all ignored.

Daily Mail: Portrait of a killer: Call of Duty-loving shooter, 18, was bullied at school for being poor, creeped out his Wendy's female co-workers, walked around with boxing gloves on looking for fights and self-harmed.

'[Salvador Ramos] had scars on his face and someone asked him, 'Are you ok?' and he just said with a smile 'I did it myself, I liked how it looked.'
[.]
According to Ramos' neighbor Ruben Flores, 41, the shooter and his mother would often have screaming matches, with police being called to the home on multiple occasions.
[.]
Reportedly Ramos was bullied for a stutter and lisp. Classmates also allegedly called him with gay slurs.  At one point, he uploaded a picture of himself wearing eyeliner.

'He would get bullied hard, like bullied by a lot of people,' Garcia told the Post, 'Over social media, over gaming, over everything.'
[.]
As he morphed into a 'different person' into his later teen years, one local claimed he would ride around at night with a friend firing a BB gun at random passersby. He is also said to have egged people's cars.
[.]
One friend, who wanted to join the Marines, said he cut off Ramos after the killer told him he only wanted to join the force 'so he could kill people.'
[.]
On his since removed Instagram account, Ramos is believed to have shared a photo of two AR15-style rifles just three days before the massacre, while the bio on his TikTok page chillingly read: 'Kids be scared irl' (in real life).

Meanwhile, his Wendy's co-workers told the Daily Beast that he had an 'aggressive streak' and would send inappropriate messages to female employees. They also branded him 'quiet' and 'anti-social'.

One said: 'He would be very rude towards the girls sometimes, and one of the cooks, threatening them by asking, 'Do you know who I am?'

'And he would also send inappropriate texts to the ladies.'
[.]
'What your guns gotta do with me,' [sic] she replied on Friday.

'Just wanted to tag you,' he said back.

Then at 5:43am on Tuesday, @salv8dor_ messaged her and said: 'I'm about to'.

The girl asked 'about to what' to which he answered: 'I'll tell you before 11.'

He said he would text her in an hour and urged her to respond.

'I got a lil secret I wanna tell u,' he messaged with a smiley face emoji covering its mouth.

'Be grateful I tagged you,' he wrote.

She replied: 'No it's just scary,' adding: 'I barely know you and you tag me in a picture with some guns?'

His last message at 9:16am on Tuesday was 'Ima air out'.

Tiger Woods quits PGA tournament after the worst round of his career.

The New Daily: Tiger Woods quits PGA tournament after the worst round of his career.

A hobbling Tiger Woods had withdrawn from the the US PGA Championship after a career-worst 79 in the third round at Tulsa’s Southern Hills course.

In obvious pain, Woods limped his way around in the cold and wind, at one point making five straight bogeys.

It was the first time Woods has withdrawn from a major as a professional.

He declined interviews after his round, speaking only to a pool reporter.

Woods was asked if he felt as though he would play the final round. All he said was he was sore, he would do some work and see how it went.

Woods has made the cut in the two majors he has played since his right leg was shattered in a car crash 15 months ago.

He must have a decent degree of chronic pain from the accidents he's been in,  yet to a large degree rebounded back. I've always liked him and marvel at his golf game. He's been written off a couple of times in the past by "experts" who said he'll never play golf again.

He hasn't used up all Nine Lives of his career...at least I don't think so. Heal, practice and he'll be back.

Boozing Biden SS Agents sent home from South Korea after drunken "incident."

ABC News: 2 Secret Service employees being sent home from South Korea ahead of Biden's arrival after alleged incident.

Two Secret Service employees -- an agent and an armed physical security specialist -- in South Korea to prepare for President Joe Biden's impending arrival are being sent home after an alleged alcohol-fueled incident that ended with a report being filed with local police, according to two sources briefed on the situation.

The personnel were assigned to help prepare for the presidential visit when they went out for dinner and then stopped at several bars, the sources told ABC News. As the evening progressed, the two Secret Service staffers became apparently intoxicated and the agent wound up in a heated argument with a cab driver, according to the sources.

Did some searching, no results indicating Mr. Bookman is a doctor, medical specialist in any field, no background in biology or health. Will be happy to correct this if anyone comments leading to legit link where this man has any background in health and science.

Man faces prison for kidnapping baby in attempt to infect her with herpes.

Alanzo Palmer Jr.

Times Recorder (Archived): Man faces prison for kidnapping baby in attempt to infect her with herpes.

ZANESVILLE  — A Chandlersville man faces prison for holding an infant down and putting the fluid from a herpes lesion into her mouth.

On Monday, 22-year-old Alanzo Palmer Jr. pleaded guilty to one second-degree felony count kidnapping in the matter.
[.]
Palmer responded by saying he wanted the baby to have “something that she’ll be stuck with for the rest of her life.” Palmer explained that he popped an infected herpes wound and spread the discharge in the baby’s mouth.

Originally, Palmer was indicted with felonious assault by serious physical harm, child endangering by torture with serious physical harm, child endangering by abuse with serious physical harm, child endangering by neglect with serious physical harm, kidnapping for the purpose of causing serious physical harm and kidnapping to facilitate a felony. After a series of later tests, the baby did not test positive for the disease.

Since the child did not contract herpes as Palmer intended, the serious physical harm (infecting the child) which formed the basis for many of his charges did not ultimately occur.

Kidnapping is one of the crimes under Ohio law that applies to a much broader set of circumstances than its name implies. While there may not have been serious physical harm, the facts still demonstrated that Palmer restrained the liberty of the baby while he was squirting the herpes fluids into her mouth. In doing so, he attempted to terrorize her and created a risk of serious physical harm. Those facts establish the crime of kidnapping under Ohio law. Furthermore, when kidnapping occurs and the person kidnapped is ultimately unharmed, the crime is a felony of the second degree.

Child endangering without serious physical harm is a misdemeanor offense, which cannot add any time to a felony sentence.

The Muskingum County Prosecutor’s Office will be arguing for the maximum sentence, which is eight years.

I can't begin to fathom the depravity of the mind of someone who would do this.

Townhall Grand Slam story: Democrats Truly Are Evil.

Townhall: Democrats are truly evil.

There is nothing about the current Democrat Party that isn’t predicated on lies, jealousy and hatred – all stirred up by them. I couldn’t imagine living life that way, but it really is a bunch of rich people lecturing others about how it’s wrong they don’t have what other rich people have. Those rich people then promise to make those other rich people suffer for their success. It’s truly bizarre.

Somehow, it works. Never underestimate the power of jealousy.

Joe Biden went to Buffalo and not Waukesha or New York City.

Same for Laguna Woods out in California. That was a Chinese sympathizer of communism attacking a Taiwanese church. Biden didn’t rush to go out there because Democrats couldn’t use it.
[.]
The President turned a chance to meet with families in Buffalo into his own personal Wellstone Rally[.]
[.]
The left ignores the parts of the “manifesto” where the killer declares himself on their side, where he attacks Fox, etc. Instead, they focus on “replacement theory,” something they call racist now but proudly bragged about until Saturday afternoon.

Democrats pretended to care for about 15 minutes, then returned to calling everyone who doesn’t support them Nazis.

Ukraine wants Biden to give them killer drones. Biden salivates over the idea.

The Intercept: Military-Industrial Complex Is Itching to Send “Hunter-Killer” Drones to Ukraine.

Kyiv reportedly met with the major defense contractor General Atomics about obtaining the “Hunter-Killer” MQ-9 Reaper drone, armed with Hellfire missiles, which the U.S. has infamously used in botched airstrikes that killed and maimed civilians in Afghanistan, Somalia, and other countries around the world. The company and Kyiv’s allies in Washington are appealing to policymakers to greenlight the export, despite the high risk of escalation that could turn the devastating war nuclear.
[.]
Along the way, Kyiv and the U.S. defense industry have had a strong ally in the American media, which is constantly asking the administration why it’s not getting more involved. After the Washington Post reported on Ukraine’s discussions with General Atomics, Politico beckoned: “Ukraine wants armed drones. Is the U.S. ready to deliver?”

“It’s not every day that the United States approves the sale or transfer of armed drones to a foreign country — but Ukraine is hoping the Biden administration will heed the call of soldiers on the ground to do just that,” the story led.

Hit the link, read the full story. Biden's handlers and the Military Industrial Complex are itching for WW3. Appears Biden wants to employ the same tactics of Obama...drone and kill, drone and kill, drone and kill. Civilian casualties...oh, just collateral damage. Here's $5,000 per family to bury your innocent dead.

Half of (p)Resident Biden's Twitter followers are FAKE.

Daily Mail: Almost half of President Biden's Twitter followers are FAKE, audit reveals as Elon Musk puts deal to buy Big Tech giant on hold over bots.

Nearly half of President Joe Biden's 22.3 million Twitter followers are fake, a new analysis revealed on Wednesday.

The report comes as Tesla founder Elon Musk pumped the breaks on his $44 billion purchase of the social media platform over concerns about the amount of bots active on the site.

Inauthentic Twitter accounts, known colloquially as bots, operate to mimic human interaction on the platform in order to achieve a specific goal.

Biden Twitter bots? SHOCKING!

Vaxxed and Boosted Ashley Biden has Teh Coof!

Reuters: Ashley Biden tests positive for Covid-19.

WASHINGTON, May 18 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden's daughter, Ashley, has tested positive for COVID-19, the White House said on Wednesday.

Ashley Biden, 40, was scheduled to travel to Central America with her mother, first lady Jill Biden, departing on Wednesday afternoon, but will no longer make the trip, the White House said.

It was not immediately clear when Ashley Biden was last with the president.

"It was not immediately clear when Ashley Biden was last with the president." Hmmmmm...the last time they took an inappropriate shower together?

Vaxxed and Boosted Sheila Jackson Lee has Teh Coof!

Breitbart: Quadruple Vaxed Sheila Jackson Lee Tests Positive for the Coronavirus.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) tested positive for the Chinese coronavirus, her office said in a statement on Monday, despite her status as both vaccinated and boosted.

“Statement: Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee tested positive for COVID. She is fully vaccinated and has received her boosters,” an update posted to Twitter reads. The statement suggests the congresswoman has been quadruple vaccinated, assuming she received the traditional two-dose series and later received “boosters,” per the statement.

I'm sure her symptoms are, "very mild."

Gasoline prices hit new highs in California.

USA MacPaper via Yahoo (Archived): 'Excruciating': This working-class California county has the most expensive gas in the nation.

The average price for a gallon of regular gas in the county topped $6.75 this week, the highest county average nationwide, with some stations charging as much as $7.19 in mid May.

Sierra Chaltry drives 80 miles roundtrip five days a week to get from her home in the small community of Virginia Lakes to her part-time job at Epic Cafe in June Lake.

“It’s probably costing me around $200 a week,” said the 29-year-old, who has been looking for housing in June Lake for eight years without luck.

Lauren Seymore, a 35-year-old emergency room nurse, said [...] [she] estimates spending $150 to fill her tank every week.

“The gas prices are excruciating[.]”

Dore had three stations to choose from last week near her house in Lee Vining: the Mobil charging $6.69 for a gallon of regular, the Shell charging $6.99 a gallon or the Chevron charging $7.19.

"I feel helpless sometimes. What can we do?" she said. "We try to write to our congressmen and blah, blah, blah and all that but I just feel like, especially these little towns, rural America, they don't really get heard very much."

I'm thinking we'll see a nationide average of around $9.99 or so by July 4th.

What say you?

CNN labels 4Chan the, "Internet's Wild West."

CNN: Buffalo massacre puts spotlight on hate-filled website.

4chan is part of the internet’s Wild West. While Big Tech platforms like Facebook and Twitter at least try to police their sites, almost anything goes on 4Chan.

"Facebook and Twitter at least try to police their sites."  🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

Perps have livestreamed their own crimes, killings, smash and grabs and worse on FB. Antifa, blm, pro-baby killers all have organized violent protests on both FB an Twitter.

Yes, there are some crazy and ranting posts on 4Chan. But I'm unaware of any unlawful behavior organized and instigated that can be blamed on a 4Chan poster. 4Chan jannies are far more arduous and strict about deleting a post or file than FB, Twitter or the unhinged blue-red hair Redditors.

CNN is the 4Chan of the MSM. How unironic.
