[Washington Examiner] Malcolm X will be added to the Nebraska Hall of Fame after the commission in charge voted for his induction Monday.
With his induction, Malcolm X will become the first black man honored in the state's hall of fame.
"Malcolm X used the lessons he learned early in life and his intellectual power, dedication and perseverance in the fight for freedom and equality for all during the Civil Rights Movement in America," Nebraska Hall of Fame Commission Chairman Ron Hull said. "His work and his legacy continue to impact the citizens of the world."
Malcolm X has been nominated in previous years for the hall of fame, beginning in 2004, but was passed over various times. He was voted into the hall of fame this year by a 4-3 vote.
The firebrand civil rights advocate was born in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1925 as Malcolm Little before his family left for Milwaukee a year later due to threats from the Ku Klux Klan.
Malcolm X came to prominence during the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s as a minister for the Nation of Islam before leaving the organization and forming his own civil rights advocacy groups. He was assassinated in New York City in 1965.
As part of the induction, a bust of Malcolm X will be placed in the state capitol alongside the other 26 busts.
Bernie Sanders has long been my least favorite personality in the American political world. Not because he’s an idiot (although he is) or because his ideology is historically, morally and economically blind (although it is all those things), but because he has long been an enthusiastically active and willing stooge for Moscow’s propaganda in the United States. Jill Stein regularly makes my bottom five for similar reasons.
But times change. Apparently, the mass murder of Ukrainians in the tens of thousands did something in Sanders’ mind that Moscow’s pointing of thousands of nuclear weapons at his constituents did not. No worries for the Kremlin. There are others in the Western world willing to prostrate themselves to Vladimir Putin. Their reasons vary (greatly) but to a person they are among the greatest threats to the American experiment and way of life.
I’m not going to dive into their rationales. That’s a task for people with far greater interest in the Thunderdome of American politics than I have ever possessed. But I can and will outline the whys of Russian propaganda. It didn’t come out of the blue. Its very existence is wrapped up in how Moscow has ruled its territories going back to the beginning.
[Townhall] New inflation numbers released Tuesday morning show American families are getting crushed after Democrats passed trillions of dollars in unnecessary government spending since President Joe Biden took office. When the news broke, Wall Street took a nose dive.
But the terrible economic news didn't deter the White House, President Biden and Democrats from taking a victory lap on the South Lawn Tuesday afternoon in celebration of the "Inflation Reduction Act." The legislation, according to all independent analysis, will increase inflation and blow out the federal deficit.
To open the event at the White House, the Biden communications team called in James Taylor to sing Fire and Rain. Fire and Rain is a song about suicide, addiction and things ending very badly. Fitting for the occasion.

Didn't Jawn Fn Kerry use Taylor for some stupid response to some event in Eurineland a few years back?

I liked the part when he was trying to find the stage exit after Moonsnot! and Dr. Jill and Sideshow Bob came to the rescue.
This was neat, not because Mean'ol Fox did a cut segment right in the middle, but because CNN is so inept they left the ticker up while allowing the speech instead of giving him the whole screen.
Bumblefuks everywhere.
Joe Biden Brings James Taylor to Celebrate ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ as Stock Market Plummets Over 1000 Points
[Townhall] The stock market closed on Tuesday afternoon after its worst day since June 2020 following the morning's release of Consumer Price Index data that showed prices continued to rise in August to a 12-month 8.3 percent while core inflation doubled its expected increase for last month.
By market close the S&P 500 was down more than 4.3 percent to 3,932.69, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had shed 1,276.37 points — or 3.94 percent — and the Nasdaq Composite was down more than 5 percent to 11,633.57. If this was part of Biden's Build Back Better policy agenda, he must have forgotten to mention it.
Tech companies were among the hardest hit in the selloff, with Facebook losing nearly 10 percent of its value — more than $40 billion — while the market as a whole lost more than $1.5 trillion.
[Yahoo] A top State Department official, countering claims that have circulated widely among members of Congress and the news media, says in a new interview there is no evidence that any external actors caused the "Havana syndrome" health incidents reported in recent years by over 1,100 U.S. diplomats and spies.
The comments by Brian Nichols, assistant secretary of state for Western Hemisphere affairs, are especially striking given they come at a time the CIA and the State Department have begun making arrangements to compensate — with payments of up to $189,000 — current and former U.S. officials suffering from unexplained brain injuries under a law, the HAVANA Act, passed by Congress last year and signed by President Biden.
But even as those payments go out, a Yahoo News investigation has found there is mounting skepticism among senior officials about a key underlying premise of the new law: that the symptoms associated with Havana syndrome — which the government formally refers to as Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI) — can be linked in any way to hostile attacks by a foreign power.
"We have not identified any outside causality in any Anomalous Health Incidents," said Nichols in an exclusive interview for a new three-part series for Yahoo News' "Conspiracyland" podcast, "The Strange Story of Havana Syndrome." The series debuts today with an episode recounting how claims about Havana syndrome led to a breakdown in U.S. relations with Cuba.

Based on what I've seen for aged equipment in government offices, there are probably rolls of atomic thermal paper to contend with too, B.

A pro-Castro administration wants to down-play the role of Cuba's regime in attacks on US officials. I'm honestly surprised this guy isn't negotiating a deal to put Iranian nukes in Cuba.

My thoughts as well. Atomic Thermal Paper (ATP) imbedded markers used to track electronic pedophile imagery. Sounded like a good idea at the time, but the volume became overwhelming.

(Observation) The author of this article has likelky waited, months, if not years to use the following sentence: The video definitely gives off a stark sci-fi vibe with dystopian overtones. All I have to say is, it was well worth the wait, yes, drones of whatever kind, do well up in the mind, AI, mad airborne "scooters", much larger than mosquitoes, which may harm you...sci-fi no, reality... and so it goes, the world gets more un-worldly by the day.

They were playing with drone at the National Training Center back in the early 90s. Nothing new other than an increase in the equipment population. Given the environment in the tactical environment in the Ukraine, the military better well train as its going to fight.
[Rudaw] The common perception is that the battle fought in the town of Baghouz in eastern Syria in 2019 was a turning point in the fight against the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... (ISIS) and that it brought about the end of the self-proclaimed caliphate in Iraq and Syria.
Although territorially defeated, the group still survives in the sense it has adapted itself to the post-Baghouz reality. The main change that the battle brought about was in the leadership, which currently lies within the women of the group — a change whose foundation stone had been set elsewhere.
Fighters of the Women’s Defense Units (YPJ) and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on March 23, 2019, territorially defeated ISIS after it overran its last bastion in Baghouz. They arrested thousands of the terror group’s fighters and resided their wives and children in the al-Hol camp, which serves as a contracted caliphate that once was straddling Syria and Iraq.
The terror group attached a huge deal of importance to women when it declared its so-called caliphate in 2014. It recruited women on an unprecedented scale and they continue to play a significant role in sustaining ISIS’ ideology.
With men hard boyz either killed or detained elsewhere and contact almost entirely severed, the leadership in ISIS was shifted to females held in the camps run by the SDF.
In the post-Baghouz era, women with solid ISIS ideology were entrusted with the mission of raising and educating their children, otherwise known as the cubs of the caliphate, as future warriors.
Originally established in 1991 to accommodate Iraqi refugees fleeing Saddam Hussain's repression, the al-Hol camp, some 45 km in east Hasaka city in northeast Syria (Rojava) became the biggest gathering and the most notorious spot ever inhabited by ISIS since 2019.
Representing 51 countries, there are now more than 55,000 people in al-Hol, nearly 93 percent of them are women and kiddies, and half of the population is under 12 years old.
Since the fall of Baghouz, the camp defiantly remains unbridled which is not a coincidence, there is an end-of-times mission carried out, however, how?
Traditionally, women's duties in krazed killer groups were primarily domestic and focused on support for their men, but that has now been altered.
With the expansion of ISIS, women assumed leading, mostly domestic and feminine, roles until they ended up taking the helm gradually.
The first rapid change was introduced in February 2014, of the all-female first armed multi-faceted battalion known as "al-Khansa Brigade."
The formation of the "al-Khansa Brigade" highlights and emphasizes in part the important role attached to females in the caliphate. While men were fighting on the frontlines their women were protecting the honor of the community at home - enjoining good and forbidding wrong. The group is headquartered in al-Hol camp and it is known as ISIS’ right hand.
The second step came, however, as a contextual one in 2017 when ISIS was territorially on the decline. Prior to that year, women illicitly could take part in battles but not as protagonists.
However, those who apply themselves too closely to little things often become incapable of great things... stark to the conventional krazed killer groups' tenets, a most fundamental and first-ever radical change was introduced in October 2017 when women were granted the right to fight still with no obligation.
In 2019 women fought on a wider scale alongside men to defend the last bastion of the caliphate in the Baghouz sliver on the Syrian- Iraqi border.
The visualization of ISIS female fighters shocked at best and disillusioned at worst supporters of ISIS. Part of the pervasive insecurity and violence committed in the al-Hol camp is against those who say ISIS should not have broken with its conventional lines.
Research on the ground reveals the roles given to women and the eventual feminization of battles is not an absolute tactical device employed by ISIS, rather it is a strategy that could have been introduced had the terror group remained a viable one to have its legitimacy established and its first-ever outdated dream preserved.
Back in al-Hol, the "Baghuziat" (mostly migrant women who stayed loyal until the very end) is the most Death Eater and fearsome enforcer of ISIS’ sharia law. These women hold the most expansionist and krazed killer vision. The collapse of the physical caliphate has failed to deter hard-line supporters.
This surviving cohort of women and kiddies, who make up the vast majority at al-Hol camp, is a key factor to the future survival of the caliphate, according to ISIS.
Surrounded by a hostile periphery, ISIS' women and kiddies are the best and most effective available weapon in commissioning and perpetuating the ideology of the terror group’s caliphate.
As ISIS women are leading the charge and their children hold the banner to the future, the al-Hol camp is the shield that protects that banner and ensures the smooth continuation of the caliphate.

You haven't defeated shit until the enemy is alive.

This is what sympathy for the devil gets you. Due process for terrorists. Mad bastards sworn to fight till death. Holding a 'prison sentence' over them or waving judgemental fingers at them. Shit. Pathetic. And getting moslems to police moslems. How stupid can it get?
If the isis were in control of a region, and these were all kaffir white or Christian people you think they'd keep them alive? They'd kill them in inventive ways just to further degrade the already pansy morale of the 'civilized world'.
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.
