  1. I don't know if it will be accepted as such, but the attack on Qatar was a clear attempt by Iran to de-escalate.
  2. I looked up Paragon. It's business has fuck-all to do with what it has obviously re-tasked to do by the parent company-which also happens to be linked to at least one immigrant detention center in El Paso. The parent company, by the way, is one of the Alaska Native Corporations which were established in 1971 when the United States Congress passed the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) which settled land and financial claims made by the Alaska Natives and provided for the establishment of 13 regional corporations to administer those claims. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Native_corporation There are several regional corporations that are part of this and, interestingly, Bering Straits Native Corporation is not the only one in the migrant detention game. Notably, a subsidiary of a contractor called Akima, which is itself a subsidiary of another regional corporation called the Northwest Alaska Native Association (NANA) was revealed as the contractor running the Guantánamo migrant jail. Here's part of an interview with the reporter who broke that story. That's just what I scraped together in 20 minutes. I think there's a lot more to this story. It'd be the perfect piece for 60 Minutes to get into if they weren't neutered- Although Biden has some responsibility here too, so maybe. It's also not lost on me that this, in essence, a story about conquering Americans paying actual Americans to detain aspiring Americans. There's a perverse irony to it all.
  3. Me too, but it's more likely he's taking both statements with a tub of bath salts.
  4. Traditional terrorist attacks may happen, but I think they're going to hit us with cyber-attacks, particularly infrastructure. Luckily, we have the Federal Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which works tirelessly to ensure that our critical infrastructure is protected. Oh. https://www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/cisa-senior-official-departures/748992/
  5. It's getting a wide theater re-release at the end of August. I might be down for a couple viewings- one for the movie, one for the score.

  8. Not that I can find- and I've looked pretty hard. Unusual Whales is pretty credible in my experience, particularly regarding stonks. I'm leaning heavily towards it being untrue though. Which, honestly would be a relief. But delete post, ban user and all that...
  9. "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." ... and then, you know, what ever you think is best...
  10. It's also worth noting that the County Attorney filing state charges is about as politically liberal as any top prosecutor who has ever existed. She's going to be hellbent on making sure that- even with a federal conviction- motive isn't sanitized.
  11. Do you know where he's at? He was booked into Hennepin Jail but appears to have been released (transferred).
  12. Two state level lawmakers were shot, one killed. If anyone thinks, under any circumstances whatsoever that the State wouldn't demand their own pound of flesh, they're kidding themselves. It's really not even worth discussing, because it's happening.
  13. A combined 17 hits and they're both alive....
  14. Nope. The most interesting thing to me in the press conference is that the wife and other family members are not in custody- even though it's reported that they had what amounts to an escape kit with them.
  15. Not to sidetrack, but here's a live press conference about some legislators who were shot yesterday. https://www.cnn.com/videos/live
  16. Doesn't even execute it properly. Unless he's implicating Mike Waltz.
  17. From yesterday morning. We know now that Gilbert was taken too.
  18. No, not really. I think we're going to find though that he was largely a one issue (pro life) nut job.
  19. Which is about 3 miles from the address listed on the business website. He was just getting started.
  20. Agreed. Dude is probably floating face down in the Mississippi as we speak.
