Oddly enough, people with multiple life sentences are rarely gentle and loving souls. On the other hand, those he murdered were not in the least bit innocent. I understand the police have a term for people like them…
[FoxNews] Ricky Wassenaar is accused of killing Saul Alvarez, Thorne Harnage and Donald Lashley
An Arizona prisoner serving 16 life sentences killed three other inmates at a state prison in Tucson, according to officials.
Ricky Wassenaar is accused of killing Saul Alvarez, Thorne Harnage and Donald Lashley during the altercation on Friday at the Arizona State Prison Cimmaron Unit, according to KOLD.
Wassenaar is the only suspect in the incident, the outlet reported. Prison officials say he acted with "intent to harm."
Alvarez was behind bars for a Maricopa County murder, Harnage was convicted in Pima County of sexual conduct with a minor and Lashley was serving a sentence for child molestation in Pima County.
Wassenaar was already serving 16 life sentences for his role in a prison standoff in 2004, according to KOLD. He already had a criminal history before the standoff.
He and another man were convicted of taking two guards hostage for 15 days at Lewis Prison Complex in Buckeye, Arizona. It was one of the longest prison hostage situations in U.S. history.
Wassenaar allegedly used a kitchen guard’s uniform to trick another guard into letting him into a prison watchtower. He obtained the uniform by overpowering an officer with a handmade weapon.
The Arizona Department of Corrections said Wassenaar was moved to a prison in Florence after Friday’s inmate deaths. The incident remains under investigation.

[Regnum] Late in the evening of April 5, a flare of the penultimate M class was detected on the Sun. This was reported by the press service of the Institute of Applied Geophysics.
According to the institute, the activity began at 22:46 Moscow time and lasted for about half an hour, ending at 23:12 Moscow time.
All flares of this class cause small to moderate radio interference on the dayside of the Earth and can also trigger a solar radiation storm.
The report specifies that specialists also recorded nine class C flares. Such energy emissions indicate increased activity in the current solar cycle.
Earlier, on March 30, five M-class solar flares were detected in the 4048 sunspot group. Scientists recorded the first flare lasting 33 minutes at 00:38 Moscow time. The second was detected at 02:00 Moscow time. Its duration was 38 minutes. The specialists registered the remaining flares at 04:48, 19:42 and 20:07 Moscow time.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on March 11 at 15:04 Moscow time, scientists registered a class M flare on the Sun in the X-ray range lasting three minutes.

[NYP] United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to admit that he understands the rationale behind US President Donald Trump’s tariff push, according to a report.
The center-left Starmer will announce on Sunday that he understands the reason why the economic nationalist framework imposed by the Trump tariffs is popular with voters — while arguing that tariffs are still wrong, The Times reported.
"Trump has done something that we don’t agree with but there’s a reason why people are behind him on this," a spokesperson for the Prime Minister said in a statement to the outlet.
"The world has changed, globalization is over and we are now in a new era. We’ve got to demonstrate that our approach, a more active Labour government, a more reformist government, can provide the answers for people in every part of this country," the statement concluded.

[Regnum] Russia allegedly monitors British Navy submarines using oligarchs' yachts. This is claimed by The Sunday Times, citing former British defense ministers and military experts.
The article states that some yachts owned by Russian oligarchs allegedly have special hatches on the bottom of the hull that can be used to lower underwater exploration equipment into the depths.
The newspaper cites a case from 2018, when the military helicopter-carrying dock ship HMS Albion urgently left the Cypriot port of Limassol due to the presence of a Russian yacht there. The publication, citing British military officials, claims that the ship was allegedly being monitored from the yacht. However, the newspaper does not specify which yacht was moored in Cyprus or who owned it.
In addition, the article describes cases of finding drones and underwater sensors that the Russian Federation allegedly uses to monitor Vanguard nuclear submarines.
[Kootenaijournal] In the nearly six minute video, Harrigan explains how China took control of an American company and positioned itself in the heart of America’s military operations, exposing the U.S. to a significant national security threat.
Harrigan introduced the Military Installation Retail Security Act, a bill he said, "does what should’ve been done a long time ago" to protect America from foreign adversaries.
Below is a portion of Harrigan’s statement:
"What if I told you that there is a company owned by the Chinese Communist Party, independently operating over 80 retail stores on United States military bases?
Let me be clear: a foreign adversary has a physical, ongoing presence on our military installations, inside the wire, with possible access to our personnel and their information.
These stores are not directly monitored by the Department of Defense and they are run with limited federal oversight.
They are independently staffed, supplied, and managed by GNC, a national nutrition and supplement retailer that is now entirely owned and controlled by a hostile federal government.
And every single day, American service members walk through their doors.
They scan their IDs, they swipe their credit cards, they provide phone numbers, emails, and home addresses, they enroll in loyalty programs, some even hand over sensitive health information through supplement consultations.

[REDSTATE] In a bold move that champions both economic growth and practical forest management, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced on Friday that it will greenlight logging in America's national forests. This decision, spearheaded by USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins, follows President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... 's executive order last month aimed at revitalizing the nation's timber industry. For Americans, this is a long-overdue step toward restoring common-sense stewardship of our natural resources while bolstering rural economies battered by years of overregulation and neglect.
America's 154 national forests span roughly 188.3 million acres, with Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, alone hosting 18 of them. These vast woodlands have been plagued by mismanagement, leaving them vulnerable to devastating wildfires, insect infestations, and disease. ''Healthy forests require work, and right now, we're facing a national forest emergency,'' Rollins declared in a statement. She's right. The data backs her up: Overgrown forests choked with deadwood have fueled catastrophic blazes in recent years, threatening lives, property, and the very ecosystems environmentalists claim to protect. Rollins' memo promises to expand timber production by 25 percent, empowering the U.S. Forest Service to cut through bureaucratic red tape and take decisive action to thin forests, reduce fire risks, and save communities.
This isn't just about trees—it's about people. Rural America, long sidelined by coastal elites and their regulatory obsessions, stands to gain the most. Logging means jobs—good, honest work for communities that have seen sawmills shutter and livelihoods vanish. By slashing National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) hurdles and easing contracting burdens, the USDA is putting faith in forest managers to do what's right for the land and the people who depend on it. President Trump's March 1 order set the stage, directing Rollins and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to prioritize timber output and sound management over endless environmental reviews. It's a refreshing rejection of the paralysis-by-analysis that has crippled resource industries for decades.

returning the Forest Service to it's original (Gifford Pinchot) purpose, e.g., scientific management of forests for profitable and sustainable harvesting as opposed to the environmental maximalists who require preservation and minimal harvesting.

"Store carbon"?
That's not how it work.

[SlayNews] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has made an alarming admission, revealing that people who received Covid mRNA "vaccines" are at risk of suffering a sudden and unexpected death for up to 15 years after they received their last injection.
Unfortunately, they won’t actually know if the risk lasts fifteen years or longer until it’s been 15 years, and then longer.
According to the FDA, the mRNA "vaccines" have created a sudden death ticking time bomb due to the massively increased risk of "vaccinated" people suffering from a deadly blood clot.
The shocking admission was revealed in a new peer-reviewed study published in the prestigious International Journal of Innovative Research in Medical Science.
According to the study, the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research admits that the "regulatory window of concern" for a novel genetic product, such as Covid mRNA "vaccines," is 5-15 years.
Worryingly, the admission suggests that the vaccinated population may be facing a wave of surging blood clots as the Covid shots were only rolled out for public use roughly four years ago.
The study suggested this means fatal pulmonary hemorrhage should be considered a potential "consequence of the novel product even months to years after the last injection."
The research was conducted by renowned American cardiologist Dr. Peter A. McCullough and prominent epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher, MPH.
McCullough and Hulsher conducted the study to investigate the long-term risks of pulmonary hemorrhage — blood clots.
Pulmonary hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition that occurs when blood bleeds into the lungs
