...“You remember they used to put the kids pictures on the milk cartons and they took them off? I contend. I don't know. I can't tell you why. I contend too many kids were being located through those milk cartons.
Your federal government doesn't want you to find these kids. Because your federal government, particularly the finers, CIA organization out of Washington DC It's the biggest motivating factor behind the missing children in this country today.
Why? Well, there's several reasons. Kids are used for body parts.”

Elon is not the first African-American to express that opinion. The wheels may not be coming off the Democrat machine yet, but they are starting to wobble.
Stand by for a preference cascade as opinions once unthinkable become common.
[Breitbart] The UK is set to become the only country in the G20 without the ability to make steel from raw materials as its largest plant goes “green” and is expected to cut nearly 3,000 jobs in the process.
Indian-owned Tata Steel announced on Friday that it will be scrapping its blast furnaces at the Port Talbot steelworks in Wales and will replace them with an electric-powered arc furnace in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
The move, which the poorly-named Conservative government gave £500 million in taxpayer money to help achieve, will mean that Britain will no longer be able to domestically produce steel from raw materials, given that the electric furnaces will only be able to convert recycled materials into steel.
This form of recycled steel is much weaker than that made from raw materials, and therefore cannot be used to make military vehicles and other defence projects. It will mean that Britain will become the only nation in the G20 incapable of producing its own steel from raw materials domestically, The Guardian reported.
The green conversion of the steelworks will also take upwards of four years to complete and will see as many as 2,800 jobs cut, severely impacting the small town of 32,000 that has already suffered under decades of deindustrialization.
Commenting on the scheme, vice-chair of the Port Talbot multi unions Gary Keogh said: “This plant isn’t part of the community, it is the community. We’re now fighting for a way of life. We’re an endangered species… The mood is devastation, uncertainty and probably overnight – certainly in my case – it’s going to be anger.”
Keogh also questioned the supposed environmental benefits of the conversion of the steelworks, saying that Britain will simply look for virgin steel overseas, meaning that even more carbon will be emitted, albeit out of site and out of mind on the other side of the world.
“They want to make their steel in Jamshedpur [India] … bring it thousands of miles across the ocean on ships with diesel engines, and call it green. It’s time people were honest,” he said.
Tata is probably very pleased to have its steel supplier close to the home office ans factories, rather than on the far side of the world.

Scary, but I'm skeptical. They can't alloy recycled steel?

Mixing various grades and impurities

This smells like journalism.
Scrap steel is iron, carbon and various impurities, some of which are added to steel in small amounts to dramatically change its character. If you process it like high-grade iron ore, you are back to square one and can turn it into anything.
[Messenger] 'It’s obvious that Pelosi’s Select Committee went to great lengths to prevent Americans from seeing certain documents produced in their investigation,' Loudermilk told Fox News
The House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 deleted hundreds of files just ahead of Republicans taking the majority in the lower chamber in January, according to and Oversight Subcommittee chairman who is leading a probe into the Select Committee.
The Oversight Subcommittee of the House Administration Committee is currently leading its own probe into the events of Jan. 6, 2021, and chairman Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., says that the panel had asked the Select Committee to turn in all documents related to its probe, according to a Fox News report.
Among the missing documents, Loudermilk cites "specific transcribed interviews and depositions to the White House and Department of Homeland Security."
Upon looking at a forensic analysis of the data they did turn in, Loudermilk's letter accuses Thompson of having deleted material on Jan. 1, 2023, days before the GOP gained majority of the House. He also says that materials were saved under undisclosed passwords.
"It’s obvious that Pelosi’s Select Committee went to great lengths to prevent Americans from seeing certain documents produced in their investigation. It also appears that Bennie Thompson and Liz Cheney intended to obstruct our Subcommittee by failing to preserve critical information and videos as required by House rules," Loudermilk told Fox News Digital.

I'd like to think that people will go to jail for this but I'm pretty that nothing like that will ever happen.

However, there are ways to recover deleted files from computer hard drives. And if the files are "saved under undisclosed passwords", the hard drive can be removed from the computer and analyzed by another computer. I wonder if anybody in Congress knows anything at all about computers.

Most of the gummint's "cybersecurity" experts were in on the steal in 2020. We'd be better off contracting the FSB's data techs to recover the stuff.

Dear Scott Kirby CEO @UnitedAirlines and Drag Queen practitioner, I regret to inform you that I will no longer allow my family to fly on your airline as you have clearly placed “diversity” of pilot hiring above safety of passengers and crew. As evidenced by the near aviation…

I don't care if he's a drag queen if he could just run an airline that was safe and reliable. I don't fly much anymore but my memories of United Airlines from the days when I had to fly to other cities for work are not good.

I flew United from Louisville KY to Chicago for a Oracle CIO conference. About Indianapolis IN the pilot announced 'a technical problem' and a necessary return to Louisville KY.
A successful landing and taxi without 'gating'. Parked on the ramp and up comes a fuel truck.
Glug, glug, glug and we were back on our way to Chicago. 3x more travel time, no extra miles.
Amusingly, a keynote speaker at the conference was the United CIO touting improved efficiency of their scheduling algorithms and maintenance cycles.
[The PM] Two Chicago journalists reported that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has become so "stressed out" that he was hospitalized for panic attacks. John Kass and Anita Padilla broke the news on WGN-AM's Chicago Way Podcast on January 16, saying that Johnson needed medical help due to increasing stress.
They were talking about the illegal immigrant problem on air when Kass said "No amount of anti-depressants can cure him of this problem."
"I know, it's so true," Padilla said. "And you know, I actually, you brought it up, I was gonna bring it up."
"The panic attacks?" Kass asked. "The mayor's panic attacks? Can we talk about that?"
"Can we talk about that?" Padilla asked. "Because sources told me, two sources told me that he has been in the hospital for these panic attacks. And he is stressed out because this is a big, big job for him."
"He wasn't ready for it," Kass said.
"He's not ready for it, he is not ready for it," Padilla said. "He is not. He's not a leader. I'm sorry. He's not a leader. And you know a leader you know, brings people up and supports them and the Chicago Police are still waiting to see where that comes from. Yeah, he put in a good superintendent. But I still think that he needs to prove himself to the police. You know, where does he stand on that? But this immigration issue? This is not helping him at all this situation."
"And you know, when you call yourself a 'sanctuary city', you call yourself a 'sanctuary state' and guess what's gonna happen?" Padilla said.
"Don't blame Texas," she continued, "because Texas if you look at what they're dealing with, they have a massive influx. We don't even show the videos on television, the amount of people that are just standing around, you know, and now they're desperate because what happens when people don't have money or they don't have food, they they start breaking into things. They start committing crimes they start working for the cartels, they start doing human trafficking, they start becoming victims of human trafficking. So they had to do— what are they gonna do with all these people— they had to get them out of their city, and well, sanctuary city, you're the sanctuary city. So you're gonna get what you asked for."
I still think there is something hinky about the story that he just wandered off and had elective surgery for a few days.
A random You-tuber provides this summary: All personnel in the National Command Authority are tracked 24 hours a day by the NMCC or National Military Command Center. The location of every single National Command Authority Figure is relayed every shift changed at the NMCC and this information is mirrored in the White House Situation Room.
It is highly unlikely that the White House or or the NMCC would not know the location of the Secretary of Defense for multiple days across multiple shift changes.

Not sure how Jill’s staff could have planned and made this stupidity happen.

I'm sure there are already "journalists" saying it's a Photoshop and anyone transmitting it should be banned from the internet for spreading "misinformation," "election interference," general meanness and so forth.
