Thankfully NASA determines an object which weighed 1.6 pounds and smashed through a Florida man's roof wasn't the bag lost by two female astronauts last November
Nope, it was a 5,800 pound pallet heaved over the side of the ISS in March 2021.
Go big or go broke I always say.

Fearful of UAE speech laws, craven AP Obama never mentions that government cloud-seeding operations turbocharged Dubai rains leading to historic flooding and deaths
AP Obama can always be counted on to lie by omission.
Storm dumps heaviest rain ever recorded in desert nation of UAE, flooding roads and Dubai’s airport
One couple, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to speak freely in a country with strict laws that criminalize critical speech, called the situation at the airport “absolute carnage.”
But Bloomberg makes it the lede.
Dubai Grinds to Standstill as Cloud Seeding Worsens Flooding
Paragraph two:
The heavy rains that caused widespread flooding across the desert nation came after cloud seeding. The UAE has been carrying out seeding operations since 2002 to address water security issues, even though the lack of drainage in many areas can trigger flooding.

Like NPR's Maher, the totalitarian Brussels Belgium mayor is trying to shut down speech at the National Conservatism Conference as we speak
What a coincidence these stories break the same day.
The disturbance is being caused by Antifa, not by the people at this catered event.

Comrade Katherine brings the hammer down on the enemy within: Uri Berliner suspended at NPR, given "final warning"
NPR has formally punished Uri Berliner, the senior editor who publicly argued a week ago that the network had "lost America's trust" by approaching news stories with a rigidly progressive mindset.
Berliner's five-day suspension without pay, which began last Friday, has not been previously reported.
Yet the public radio network is grappling in other ways with the fallout from Berliner's essay for the online news site The Free Press. It angered many of his colleagues, led NPR leaders to announce monthly internal reviews of the network's coverage, and gave fresh ammunition to conservative and partisan Republican critics of NPR, including former President Donald Trump.

Man oh man, you should see his Twitter feed though
Or hear the f-bombs they hurl at each other in the driveway.
But at least they've got this sign.
In the good old days the Republican fascists funded domestic companies, now the Democrat fascists fund the foreign companies
Taiwan last week, South Korea this week.
The Biden administration has reached an agreement to provide up to $6.4 billion in direct funding for Samsung Electronics to develop a computer chip manufacturing and research cluster in Texas.
The funding announced Monday by the Commerce Department is part of a total investment in the cluster that, with private money, is expected to exceed $40 billion. The government support comes from the CHIPS and Science Act, which President Joe Biden signed into law in 2022 with the goal of reviving the production of advanced computer chips domestically.

Biden is insane: He not only paid Iran to attack Israel, he paid again to defend Israel from the attack and sacrificed American lives in the process
A complete farce brought to you by The Democrat Party:
Israel says Iran's missile and drone attack largely thwarted, with "very little damage" caused
"The Iranian threat met the aerial and technological superiority of the IDF, along with a strong fighting coalition — which together intercepted the overwhelming majority of the threats. 99% of the threats launched towards Israeli territory were intercepted — a very significant strategic achievement," [IDF spokesman Daniel] Hagari said.
Biden continues Iran’s access to $10 billion just weeks after its proxy killed three American soldiers Published March 14, 2024, 7:07 p.m. ET:
Just six weeks after an Iran-backed drone strike killed three American soldiers in Jordan, President Biden has approved a sanctions waiver giving Tehran continued access to more than $10 billion — money it can use to import goods and repay debts, freeing up $10 billion elsewhere to spend on terrorism, missiles, nuclear weapons and the repression of Iranian women.
The Senate [controlled by the Jew Chucky Schumer] is sitting on a bill that would lock down the money . . ..
If you want to have a body like Megan Thee Stallion's, switch from cognac to tequila lol
Megan also shifted her diet to improve her fitness. She drinks a gallon of water a day and swapped out cognac for tequila to lower her sugar intake.
More lolz here.

Boston Globe editorial board downplays illegal immigration threat, misrepresents Gallup survey which said immigration is Americans' top unprompted concern
From the Gallup survey:
For the second straight month, immigration leads Americans’ unprompted
answers about what most ails the nation, with inflation also figuring
prominently. ...
Immigration Is Americans’ Top Unprompted Concern
Gallup also measures Americans’ views of national concerns monthly by asking them to name, unprompted, what they believe is the most important problem facing the country today. This question format is asked before the list of issue concerns in the survey and yields a slightly different conclusion, finding immigration ranking ahead of inflation. Overall, 28% of Americans, the same as in February and the most for any issue, name immigration as the top problem. That essentially ties the 27% reading from July 2019 as the highest since Gallup started compiling mentions of immigration in 1981.
But here's the Boston Globe:
Late last month, the venerable Gallup company released a survey listing the most pressing concerns in the United States. Predictably topping the list were inflation and crime, followed by hunger and homelessness, the economy broadly, and the high cost of health care. Farther back were things like illegal immigration, drug use, and the environment.
When Gallup asks Americans to rank their concerns about a list of problems, immigration is placed seventh in the list. By the time your average person gets to number seven, he's already forgotten what he said about one, two, three, four, and five.
But you can see from that list what really concerns most people: their weight.
Take the combined "worrying a great deal" and "a fair amount" about any of the fourteen problems and you will see that NUMERO UNO is . . . hunger and homelessness at 80%.
Yet homelessness affected fewer than 600,000 people in 2022.
And hunger? Hunger is now about "food insecurity", not starving. My fat cat is food insecure if I fail to keep her food bowl full. Two-thirds of adults are overweight, 40% of whom are obese, and there's a weight-loss-drug mania out there.
No, Americans are worried about the obscenely high cost of housing and that they'll end up on the street begging for the food Joe Biden's inflation made unaffordable if they lose their jobs, which is highly likely with 10 million illegals he let in competing for their positions.
But yeah, worry about nuclear war with The Boston Globe.

24 Republicans voted for $280 billion fascist Chips and Science Act in July 2022 even though they didn't need to, latest award goes to Taiwan Semiconductor Mfg. Co.
The July 2022 roll call vote is here.
TSMC’s Arizona subsidiary is set to receive up to $6.6 billion in U.S. government funding under a preliminary agreement announced by the Biden administration on Monday.

LA Times blames out-migration under Gruesome Gavin Newsom on "not enough room" left in California lol
California just got too big for its carrying capacity — at least in the sprawling, ranch-house lifestyle that so many people covet and symbolizes the state’s easy-living persona. “Grow and grow and grow and eventually there’s not enough room,” says Hans Johnson, a demographer at the nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California. “The easy places for growth have been used up. Growth today means infill development [in cities]. That’s expensive and controversial. Or you live further away from your job.”
