Missing us by 180k miles yesterday, asteroid 2024 MK was only discovered on June 16 and was one of the 60% larger than 140 meters still unknown

 

Gee that's . . . not a happy thought.

The asteroid, named 2024 MK, is estimated to measure about 480 feet (146 meters) across, which is greater than the height of a 40-story building or the Great Pyramid of Giza.

More. 

A sucker that size could destroy London, England:

"If [an asteroid as big as Dimorphos] were to fall on the city of London, windows would break over the whole south east of England and the damage in [the Greater London] area would be very extreme," Collins said. "There would be no survivors in the center of London because of the impact itself and also because of the severity of the air blast." ...

While asteroids of this size crossing the path of our planet are rare, astronomers estimate that 60% of near Earth asteroids larger than 140 meters are still unknown. 

NASA said it came in at 152.4 meters.

European Space Agency said it came as close as 180k miles.

Talk about giving two weeks notice.

Democrats' new strategy: Lie harder!

 

Sen. Raphael Warnock: Behind Closed Doors, Biden Is Mentally Sharp, "He Has A Tough Mind And A Tender Heart"

There's an easy way to recognize if the Democrat you are talking to is a "first-bucket" Democrat

 

 First-bucket Democrats believe Joe had a cold on debate night, an excuse trotted out mid-way through the debate by the Biden campaign when everyone realized in the first minute that Joe was cratering.

Magically, Joe recovered overnight and made a relatively robust appearance in North Carolina on Friday in front of a supportive crowd using his trusty teleprompter!

Sources have described three buckets of Democrats: those who will defend Biden under any circumstances, those who are ready to dump him, and those who are waiting to see what he does — and what his poll numbers look like in the coming days and weeks — before passing judgment. It’s the third bucket that Democratic insiders are monitoring closely.

Germany's Alternative für Deutschland is against EU bailouts of Greece and Italy and against EU membership for Ukraine

 

In discussing the party's policy platform, Weidel said AfD's future allies in the European Parliament should oppose the disbursal of taxpayer money to the "debt states" of Europe - a reference to countries such as Italy and Greece - and the idea that Ukraine belongs to the European Union, after it opened membership talks this week.

British conservatives are still blind to Nigel Farage's truth, which is identical with Henry Kissinger's long-held position that Ukraine should not join NATO

 Western civilisation is being destroyed by its own decadence

Zoe Strimpel, UK Telegraph

Last week, Nigel Farage outed himself as deeply unfit for leadership by piping the same line as other populists in Europe and the United States: that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is effectively our fault because, through Nato expansion, we had “poked” the Russian bear . . ..

Henry Kissinger was US Secretary of State under Nixon and Ford.

This position has nothing to do with populism, except by the accident of thinking correctly.

DNC chair Jaime Harrison and Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez gaslight DNC committee members in Saturday conference call, disable chat function and disallow questions

Here:

Multiple committee members on the call, most granted anonymity to talk about the private discussion, described feeling like they were being gaslighted — that they were being asked to ignore the dire nature of the party’s predicament. The call, they said, may have worsened a widespread sense of panic among elected officials, donors and other stakeholders.

Instead, the people said, Harrison offered what they described as a rosy assessment of Biden's path forward. The chat function was disabled and there were no questions allowed.

“I was hoping for more of a substantive conversation instead of, ‘Hey, let’s go out there and just be cheerleaders,’ without actually addressing a very serious issue that unfolded on American television for millions of people to see," said Joe Salazar, an elected DNC member from Colorado, who was on the call. “There were a number of things that could have been said in addressing the situation. But we didn’t get that. We were being gaslit.” ... “This should not be a close race,” Salazar said, pointing to Trump's criminal record and long history of falsehoods. “They’re the ones who should be looking for a new nominee, not us. And unfortunately for us, because of our president’s performance on Thursday night, that is now an open discussion.”

Democrat scare-mongering on democracy and the rule of law has totally flopped: Voters think both will be about the same no matter whom they elect

Most voters think the two are an equal threat to democracy lol.

Biden campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon pre-blames the media for coming bad Biden polls lol

 For everything else there's MasterCard ™.

The Biden campaign declined to comment for this piece, instead pointing to a memo Saturday from campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon that made the case that Biden can still win, pointing to the more than $27 million they raised between debate day and Friday evening.

Notably, however, O’Malley Dillon nodded to the possibility that there might be some tough polling ahead — but said the blame will rest with the media: “If we do see changes in polling in the coming weeks, it will not be the first time that overblown media narratives have driven temporary dips in the polls.”

NBC LOL: Democrats will abort Biden only if he's "not viable"

'It's a mess': Biden turns to family on his path forward after his disastrous debate:

“[Former] Speaker Pelosi[, 84,] has full confidence in President Biden[, 81,] and looks forward to attending his inauguration on January 20, 2025,” Ian Krager, a spokesman for the former House speaker said. “Any suggestion that she has engaged in a different course of action is simply not true.” ...

Party elites will urge him to exit the race only if they determine that he is “not viable and negatively impacting the House and Senate races,” said one big-time donor who is close to both Obama and Biden.

Biden at debate says no one wants to screw with the USA, Houthi attacks continue in Red Sea sinking ships, diverting traffic, and driving shipping costs up 233% year over year

 

Does Joe even know?

Does Joe even remember?

 

The idiots at UK Daily Mail published editorial discussions about the article in the body of the article on John Deere shipping good American jobs to Mexico lol

 

XX Should we have the Dubuque job losses here too - bunch them all together, at least on first mention. And can we do them in chronological order - May is before March. Also assuming this first Oct one is 2023. And/or a little fact box on them, which we could also get made up ona  little graphic of Iowa showing Factory location and town, population, jobs lost (and jobs left). Might be good to summarise that way. But can do it a fact box first and then decide on map graphic.           

 

I'm sure the company would respond that the 2021 strike was the greed. 

There's plenty of greed to go around, though, obviously.

 

Fury as one of America's oldest companies slashes jobs in the Midwest as it shifts work to Mexico: 'It's greed'

The layoffs come after 10,000 unionized John Deere workers went on strike for five weeks in October 2021.

The strikes were among the most prominent during 'Striketober', where thousands of workers from Nabisco, Kellogg's, McDonald's and others walked out for weeks or even months to protest low pay in the wake soaring company profits.

Striking John Deere employees won a 10 percent raise for hourly earners, increased retirement benefits and the maintaining of the health insurance program that workers don't have to pay premiums for.

Biden Fights for Ordinary People While Trump Is Out for Himself -- Barack Obama, X

This hopium peddler sat idly by while hopeless ordinary people had to join the greatest exodus from the labor force in the history of the post-war.

 

Now millions of illegals have been brought in under Joe Biden to take their place at much lower wages.

Joe Biden's rape comments from last night's debate are . . . disjointed

He went to the funeral. The idea that she was murdered by an immigrant. But here's the deal, a lot of young women are being raped by their inlaws. By their spouses. By their brothers and sisters. It's just ridiculous.

The main line of interpretation seems to be that Biden was referring to the rape culture of migrants, sisters being a slip of the tongue.

Which begs the question, Why bring them here? Just so they can get an abortion? Is that what America boils down to?

The New York Times loses its mind, pretends it hasn't been gaslighting the country on Joe Biden's fitness for office as recently as a week ago

Paul Krugman used to say illegal immigration hurt poor Americans, but not anymore.

Biden's other big whopper last night was that no troops died under his watch: He's forgotten Afghanistan, and probably the debate itself

 

The left is having an apoplectic fit over the dagger the Supremes just put into the unaccountable administrative state, aka The Swamp: A massive blow

 What about our careers?!
