Are you ready for a grid-down scenario, a prolonged freeze, or a severe winter storm? Weather forecasts suggest that this could be a distinct possibility in the next two weeks. Let’s dive in and prepare for what may come. Cold weather survival requires careful planning, so here are recommendations on what to store and why it’s critical to be prepared. Many areas in the U.S. could experience severe cold, potentially breaking records or revisiting temperatures not seen in decades. This includes parts of the South like Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee—regions typically unprepared for extreme cold. Preparation starts with understanding the risks. Over the coming weeks, multiple polar vortexes may send subzero temperatures to parts of the country unused to such conditions. This could affect infrastructure, as many homes in the South lack the insulation or buried pipes designed to withstand freezing temperatures. These vulnerabilities mirror the devastation caused...

A recent proposal in the U.S. House of Representatives aims to protect Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from potential arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).  This move has ignited a debate, with supporters emphasizing the importance of safeguarding international allies, while critics raise concerns about the implications for international law and justice. The ICC has been investigating alleged war crimes committed during conflicts involving Israel. In response, some U.S. lawmakers have proposed measures to shield Israeli officials, including Netanyahu, from potential ICC actions. This includes provisions in the House rules package that would impose sanctions on ICC officials involved in issuing arrest warrants against Israeli leaders. Pros of the Proposal Strengthening U.S.-Israel Relations: Supporters argue that protecting Israeli officials from ICC actions reinforces the strong alliance between the U.S. and Israel, demonstrating unwavering sup...

Argentina has achieved a historic milestone by eliminating its fiscal deficit for the first time in 123 years, a feat accomplished under President Javier Milei's administration. Since taking office, President Milei has implemented stringent austerity measures, including significant budget cuts across various sectors such as public administration, healthcare, and education. The administration has curtailed the printing of new money, aiming to control hyperinflation and stabilize the national currency. Efforts to reduce corruption have been intensified, contributing to more efficient use of public funds. Economic Indicators: Inflation Rate: Inflation has decreased from over 200% in 2023 to approximately 2.7% as of October 2024, indicating a significant stabilization of the economy. Budget Surplus: The national budget has shifted from a persistent deficit to a surplus, reflecting improved fiscal health. Implications: Positive Outcomes: The elimination of the deficit and reduction i...

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has temporarily blocked the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), a law requiring small businesses to disclose detailed information about their beneficial owners to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). This decision has significant implications for small business owners nationwide. Pros of the Court's Decision: Relief from Compliance Burden: Small businesses are relieved from the immediate obligation to comply with the CTA's reporting requirements, which many found complex and burdensome. This pause allows business owners to allocate resources toward growth and operations without the added administrative load. Avoidance of Penalties: With the enforcement on hold, businesses are temporarily exempt from the risk of incurring fines up to $10,000 or facing imprisonment for non-compliance with the CTA. Constitutional Considerations: The court's injunction reflects concerns about potential overreach, ...

Recent tragic events in New Orleans and Las Vegas have brought attention to Turo, a peer-to-peer car-sharing platform often likened to "Airbnb for cars." In both incidents, vehicles rented through Turo were used to carry out attacks, raising concerns about the platform's safety measures and user vetting processes. On New Year's Day, Shamsud-Din Bahar Jabbar drove a rented Ford F-150 pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street, resulting in 14 fatalities and numerous injuries. After the collision, Jabbar exited the vehicle and engaged in a shootout with police, leading to his death. Investigations revealed that Jabbar, an Army veteran with a recent conversion to Islam, had rented the truck through Turo. Authorities also discovered explosives in the vehicle and in a nearby Airbnb he had rented. Hours after the New Orleans tragedy, a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas, killing the driver, Matthew Livelsberger, and injuring severa...

President Joe Biden has presented the Presidential Citizens Medal to former Representative Liz Cheney as a recognition of her significant contributions to public service and dedication to democratic principles. The award specifically highlights her role as vice chair of the House committee that investigated the events surrounding the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Cheney’s involvement in the investigation was seen as a bold and controversial move, particularly given her status as a prominent Republican. Her efforts focused on uncovering the events and decisions that led to the Capitol attack, holding key individuals accountable, and advocating for the preservation of democratic processes. Her work on the committee earned her praise from some for her integrity and commitment to the truth, while others criticized her for breaking ranks with her party. This award serves as a recognition of her dedication to upholding the Constitution and safeguarding democratic norms durin...

From Tony -- First, Billie Eilish recently had a concert at the Forum, where she sang a song that was odd.  This wouldn't seem unusual until you realize that the song is "Oh Holy Night".  If you know Billie Eilish's music, this is strange considering the music she was singing only 5 years ago.   Next, I talk about Jaclyn Glenn and a recent video she put out where she was talking about Girl Defined and how they are changing their views, which she is surprised about. GΟDRULES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is Billie Eilish prophesizing through her music and performances? The idea that Billie Eilish may be prophesizing through her music and performances largely depends on individual interpretation and personal beliefs. Her work is often rich in symbolism, layered lyrics, and evocative performances, leading some fans and analysts to perceive deeper meanings or predictive elements in her art. Here’s a breakdown of how such ...

 The term "smart dust" refers to tiny, wireless sensors capable of detecting environmental factors like light, temperature, and chemicals. These minuscule devices, often no larger than a grain of sand, can communicate data wirelessly to larger systems. Fog or Smart Dust? In contrast, fog is a natural weather phenomenon consisting of tiny water droplets suspended in the air near the Earth's surface, leading to reduced visibility. While both involve small particles, fog is a naturally occurring event, whereas smart dust is a human-engineered technology designed for specific monitoring and data collection purposes. There is no credible scientific evidence to suggest that fog is being deliberately infused with smart dust for weather modification or surveillance purposes. Natural fog formation results from specific atmospheric conditions, such as temperature and humidity levels, and is not associated with the deployment of smart dust technology. It's important to distingui...

How did this HAPPEN? @deborahrussellrn -- Hi there!  My name is Debbie, I cannot believe this is happening all over the country.  I'm in Pomona California, and about a week ago we too had a thick fog for about 3 days. On one of those mornings, while walking my dog, I got a whiff of a chemical scent and said, "Smells like chemicals," out loud to myself;  NO LIE!. . .👃🏻😬🤔 @JeweLinHisHans -- Before I knew this fog was everywhere, my mom and I were out at the ranch and sitting out by the outdoor fireplace watching the sunset and watching a movie. There is a huge open field in front of where we were and the field is surrounded by tree lines on three sides, rectangular in shape. We watched the fog creep onto the ranch. It came from a single tree break in the left corner of the tree line. A tiny opening in the trees. There was plenty of other breaks in the tree lines including a big pond but it spilled out into the field from this single break in the trees. And then it cre...

In recent days, dense fog has enveloped large portions of the United States, causing significant disruptions and raising concerns nationwide. This extensive fog coverage is considered unusual for this time of year, affecting millions across multiple states. STRANGE FOG Covers the US and the World The National Weather Service (NWS) issued dense fog advisories spanning over 1,500 miles, covering 20 states from Missouri to New York and extending from North Dakota to Texas. At its peak, nearly 100 million people—almost a third of the U.S. population—were under fog advisories. Visibility in many areas was reduced to a quarter-mile or less, creating hazardous travel conditions. Meteorologists attribute this widespread fog to a weather pattern that brought warmer air over cold ground surfaces. This temperature inversion leads to condensation near the ground, forming dense fog. Such conditions are more typical in late winter, making this occurrence notably uncommon for early January. Impacts T...

Image of suspect in New Orleans terror attack released Authorities have identified Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. citizen from Texas, as the suspect in the New Orleans terror attack. Jabbar drove a rented pickup truck into a crowded Bourbon Street during New Year's celebrations, causing the deaths of at least 15 people and injuring many others. After crashing, he exited the vehicle and exchanged gunfire with police before being fatally shot. Jabbar was an Army veteran who served for nearly a decade and later in the reserves. Though honorably discharged, he had a minor history of legal issues. Investigators discovered an ISIS flag and potential explosives in his truck, suggesting possible ties to extremist groups. The FBI is now investigating his background and looking into whether he had any accomplices. President Joe Biden condemned the attack, expressing condolences to the families affected and emphasizing the importance of remaining vigilant against domestic terrorism. H...

In the final weeks of his presidency, Joe Biden has set in motion a proposal to protect over 264,000 acres of Nevada’s Ruby Mountains from future oil, gas, and geothermal development. The Department of the Interior is spearheading this initiative in response to requests from tribal groups, conservationists, and local communities, citing the need to preserve the region’s unique landscapes and cultural significance. The proposed action includes a temporary two-year ban on new energy leasing in the area while a 20-year withdrawal is under consideration. A 90-day public comment period has been established to gather feedback. While this measure halts new leases, it does not affect existing rights, and the land will remain open to mining claims. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland emphasized the importance of protecting the Ruby Mountains, highlighting their value as a scenic destination, a vital wildlife habitat, and an economic contributor through outdoor recreation. This move aligns with the a...

President-elect Donald Trump has raised concerns that Senate Democrats might try to delay confirming his Cabinet nominees. He urged Republican senators to stay alert and push back against any attempts to stall the process. Trump highlighted the need for quick confirmations to allow his administration to begin work without unnecessary delays. He stated, “We just won a historic landslide and mandate from the American people, but Senate Democrats are organizing to improperly stall and delay the confirmation process of many of our great nominees.” To address potential delays, Trump’s transition team has taken steps to streamline the process. Chief of Staff Susie Wiles instructed nominees to avoid posting on social media without approval to prevent controversies that could be used as reasons to delay confirmations. Trump’s concerns aren’t new, as opposition parties have historically used tactics to slow down confirmation processes. Even with a Republican majority in the Senate, challenges c...
