We frequently hear "Where are the guys who are sick what's happening to the organization they have dedicated themselves to?" The answer is most likely "Why would you screw up your career or retirement by commenting on guys like this or the guys who hired them?"

Perhaps a different type of "swinging" in has future?

I wonder how many of these confidential informants would be off trying to kidnap Whitmer on their own if the FBI had not recruited them to fake a kidnapping. A believable CI is going to need history and connections, right?
NYPD are asking the public to help identify a black male who ran up behind a 60-year-old woman & sucker punched her. The assault happened on 15 July at around 10:13 pm on the 7 train platform of the Grand Central subway station. pic.twitter.com/1AcgNeWkli

For what? So they can waste their time as witnesses in a court that'll let him off anyway? Fcuk the legal system. Unless American citizens come together to lynch such pieces of shit on the spot, there's no justice or security coming.

Shame on the NYPD for perpetuating the stereotype that black men go around punching old ladies in the head by releasing footage of a black guy punching an old lady in the head.
[WSJ] WASHINGTON—CIA Director William Burns has tapped a veteran of the agency’s hunt for Osama bin Laden to head a task force aimed at finding the cause of unexplained health incidents suffered by U.S. spies and diplomats around the world, current and former officials familiar with the matter said. So remember guys, don't sit in the cab or service the vehicle during active system operations.
The choice of the Central Intelligence Agency officer—whose identity remains undercover—is part of what the officials described as a quickening effort to determine the source of the apparent attacks, which has proven elusive. They have affected scores of U.S. officials posted overseas over the last five years, and are sometimes known as "Havana Syndrome" because the symptoms were first reported in 2016 by diplomats at the U.S. Embassy in Havana.
A scientific panel under the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine in December said some form of directed energy emissions were the most likely culprit for the symptoms experienced by U.S. officials, which include dizziness, severe headaches, nausea and cognitive difficulties.
Mr. Burns, who became CIA director in March, has said that identifying the source of the attacks and getting treatment for affected agency personnel are among his top priorities. Some current and former intelligence officials suspect Russia is behind the attacks, but that remains unproven and Moscow has denied involvement.

So a Human Intelligence (HUMINT) guy (or rather person) has been tasked with uncovering the source of directed electronic emissions ?
Gina Haspel retired on January 19, 2021. Is she returning as a high-grade contract annuitant? Burns retires from Foggy Bottom, gets new job. Haspel becomes an annuitant in an adjacent office. 'Two for one day.'
When will learn what the REAL job entails ?
OBTW, while denied by our Gov't for decades, I seem to remember Agent Orange was finally identified as a problem of our own creation.

So... arrays of microwave ovens with their doors off pointing at embassies with the protection circuits overridden and some microwave transparent blind in front - like a billboard?

#1 on my list of suspects is the Deep State using equipment few know about, making this a version of "friendly fire". If so, most likely we'll never know the truth on this.

Maybe Nellie Ohr could help out. She has a ham license.

Erasing the last remaining vestiges of white privilege by making the country uninhabitable. Certainly glad we are experiencing nothing like that here.
This is the new Russian space station element just launched. It had a history of delays. The last 2 were from metal filings in it's fuel tanks. I suspect the metal bits made themselves known again. From this link we see:Initially, Nauka was built as a backup for FGB Zarya, the first module of the ISS. Construction started in 1995, with a design based on the hull of the Soviet cargo ship TKS, itself a part of the Almaz military program which included orbital stations, a supply cargo ship, and crewed ships with reusable descent modules.
Nauka is in fact the last surviving, active part of the Almaz program, excluding the hulls and ships which were sold to the Excalibur-Almaz company and to museums for exhibition.
Whoops, the dramatic story of MLM Nauka already continues to develop just 1 orbit into space - one docking antenna & (not used yet) nadir docking port target unable to be confirmed deployed + IR horizon sensors & multiple RCS thrusters reporting errors….https://t.co/y0Lu07McDHpic.twitter.com/WAkzvwemm8

By attacking the world with a disease developed in a lab to depopulate and demoralize unwitting societies because they fear them, they have bought themselves every bit of the karma that's coming.

Looks like the low level entrance ramps to the West Park Tollway in Houston. It has flood stage markers that go to 20 feet. (Me, I'da stopped at 6 feet because, after that, who cares?)
Also, putting flood pumps down in the flood zone, ala New Orleans, is just brilliant.

Why didn't the #CCP tell people they would release the dam water?
Because the CCP doesn't care about the dam people.

[Fox Business] Internet outage monitoring website DownDetector.com on Thursday showed connection failures impacting content delivery and cloud service company Akamai, which said the outage was not the result of a cyber attack.
Websites for Amazon, Google, Verizon, Delta, HBO Max, Airbnb, AT&T Fidelity, FedEx, UPS, Southwest Airlines, HomeDepot and others may have been impacted across the country and especially in major cities like New York City; Washington, D.C., and Chicago, according to DownDector.

Yes, I was expecting this. The new normal. The meat processor in Canada was a practice run. They boasted the next hacking would be more pervasive. Meanwhile chip cards, banks are all being hacked. Chase told a customer it was from Amazon or WIFI. One local bank had 150 customers hacked in one day. Numbers higher for other local banks. So much for going cashless.

A big problem with StarLink right now is their user stations (subscriber units) need too many Gallium Arsenide chips. I suspect that is one reason their active trial user count is around 60,000. This means in parts alone the subscriber units, that are sold for about $500, actually have closer to more than $2000 in chips in them. Can devices with GA chips even be sold to people in Cuba or Russia without violating some US law?

When I was a kid in SovU in 1960es, most people listened to radio free Europe - Soviet authorities couldn't block it. And Vlad is going to block Internet?

Russia just want to ensure they have a working internet should the finicky American establishment and the Europeans decide to somehow deny it to them. As for free speech for dissenters and 'oh-the democracy!' globalist agents, they deserve none. Trust the EU media to dress even that up as a human rights violation. I'll bet they all laughed when DJT was blocked on twitter. Hypocrites.
[SPUTNIKNEWS] The European Commission said on Wednesday that Spanish border guards should police Gibraltar and enjoy "all necessary powers to perform border controls" related to the British Overseas Territory (BOT).The commission added the EU's proposed mandate puts forward "solutions to remove physical checks and controls on persons and goods" at the border between Spain and Gibraltar.
"It is without prejudice to the issues of illusory sovereignty and jurisdiction, and focuses on cooperation in the region", the commission pointed out, saying the mandate would also give Spain responsibility for granting asylum, visas, residence permits, and authorise Spanish police to pursue suspects in the BOT without special permission.
The EU's post-Brexit negotiator, Maros Sefcovic, said that by putting forward the draft mandate on BOT, the bloc is "honouring the political commitment we made to Spain to start the negotiations of a separate agreement between the EU and the UK on Gibraltar".

In the early 90s and one nation (then province over) my cousin went to Bosnia with Doctors Without Borders. He bailed after 2 months. All 3 parties to that fight shot at ambulances and medical people. The Bosnian and Croats when caught doing so would say the medical folk were the best targets they had seen all day. The Serbs would say that medical people were strategically in the way in firefights. The Croat troops were tattooing swastikas on their own heads and going into battle that way. The Bosnians had lots of Iranian allies shooting and raping and killing everybody on any side. The Serbians were the most logical if deadly in their moves.
I totally understood my cousin bailing... BTW he said the EU helpers (not the docs themselves) of Docs Without Borders just smoked and drank wine. They didn't lift many fingers to help.
Seriously I think the whole area is still unwinding from the hundreds of years of Ottoman occupation. A rather slow unwinding...
Robert Morss, a former Army Ranger turned substitute teacher who joined Capitol rioters, was ordered to remain in jail until his trial by a federal judge
Morss, from Pittsburgh, was slammed for using his military training to help organize a mob of Capitol rioters that breached the U.S. Capitol
New videos of Morss were released by the Justice Department, depicting him coordinating with additional rioters and instigating clashes with police
Morss was identified in the videos with superimposed boxes and arrows
He is depicted speaking to other rioters shortly before grabbing a fence and pulling it away from the police line
In another video, Morss is seen handing stolen police shields to other rioters, while another reveals him entering the Capitol through a broken window
Morss was taken into federal custody on June 11 on assault, robbery, and other charges for his alleged participation in the January 6 riot at the US Capitol

Three tours in AFG. I'd say he had some skin in the freedom game. Of course he was immediately terminated by the school district where he was employed as a teacher.

I don't think anyone is really serious about getting to the bottom of this. Madame Speaker and the FBI probably have considerable knowledge about what went on that day. However, it is unlikely to come out.
#6
Well if he seriously "instigating clashes with police" then he should be put in the same jailhouse as the Antifa folks that "instigating clashes with police". Same rules for everyone.
[SPUTNIKNEWS] Monsignor Jeffrey Burrill was the second-in-command at the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). The news is likely to pile pressure on the Catholic Church, the reputation of which has been severely tarnished in recent years by a slew of sex abuse, sex trafficking and child pornography scandals.

Makes me wonder what might happen if the RCC dropped its tradition of celibate male clergy. Shocking clergy news then would be along traditional lines of husbands cheating on their wives, etc.

In the 1970s a MIT guy built an ICBM out of surplus parts he found in government auctions and in junkyards. I remember the government freaking but don't know how it turned out other than the government did take his rocket.

If you read the article this guy Kika isn't doing too bad so far. Five launches, three successful, one made it 20 miles up. All made out of junk, basically. Much respect from this old desert rat.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
