Chinese Naval Ships Off Alaska

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A U.S. Coast Guard cutter on routine patrol in the Bering Sea came across several Chinese military ships in international waters but within the U.S. exclusive economic zone, officials said.

The crew detected three vessels approximately 124 miles (200 kilometers) north of the Amchitka Pass in the Aleutian Islands, the Coast Guard said in a statement Wednesday. A short time later, a helicopter aircrew from Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak spotted a fourth ship approximately 84 miles (135 kilometers) north of the Amukta Pass.

All four of the People’s Republic of China vessels were “transiting in international waters but still inside the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone,” which extends 200 nautical miles (370 kilometers) from the U.S. shoreline, the statement said. The Chinese vessels told the Coast Guard their purpose for being there was “freedom of navigation operations.”        READ MORE...,

2024 Presidential Choices

 I am literally amazed by all the liberal pundits, talking heads, experts, and so-called journalists who have gone APE SHIT over Trump's assassination attempt.

• Some believe it was a hoax
• Some believe Trump planned the shooting
• Some believe Trump's rhetoric caused it
• Some believe Trump should apologize
• Some will leave the USA if Trump gets elected
• Some did not want Trump to be so lucky
• Some believe that anything positive that happens to Trump is wrong
• Some still believe Trump will destroy DEMOCRACY

What is amazing here is that the more the HATERS HATE TRUMP, the more his popularity increases and that increase PISSES them off even more...

What I cannot understand is what is it that they hate about Trump...  and, if you were to ask them point blank, their answer would be EVERYTHING.

Logically, that is impossible...

I know many people that were not going to vote for Trump until all the LIBERALS started attacking him for no reason at all...  or if there was a reason, it was later proved to be a LIE...

Cases in point:  Russian Collusion

                          Hunter Biden's Laptop

When the Supreme Court gave him immunity, the LIBERALS now want to IMPEACH THE SUPREME COURT...  since the ruling did not go their way.

A judge has dismissed the documents case in Florida and now the LIBERALS are saying the judge was incompetent and that won't happen with a REAL JUDGE...  what they mean is that won't happen with a judge that hates Trump.

The other choice, Joe Biden, is or has been suffering from some form of DEMENTIA that causes him to act and behave like he is stroking out.  It leaves many people wondering who is making the decisions in the white house.  Since it is not Biden, is it Kamala Harris, or Obama?

• While Biden last another four years?
• If Biden leaves the Presidency, is Kamala Harris the kind of President you want to live with for the rest of his term?
• What happens if Biden is out of it, and there is an emergency declared?
• Can Biden stand toe to toe with China and Russia?

Assassination Attempt

 

By now everyone should know that there was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump's life at a rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend.  

During my lifetime there has only been two other attempts on Presidents in office, Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy.  Obviously, Trump was in office, but running for office and the November election.

What does that tell you about the climate here in the greatest country in the world?

Ever since 2015/2016, the Democrats and mainstream media has been bombarding the public day after day with how BAD Donald Trump is and now they are saying he will destroy DEMOCRACY.

Don't you think that the Democrats LIT THE MATCH this time?

What's being said?

• Some people are saying that the secret service will under-manned and under-supplied.
• Some are saying that this report is a lie.
• Some are saying that the secret service did not properly do their job.
• Some are saying that the Democrats were behind this failed attempt.
• Some are saying that Trump was protected by the hand of God.

All we have and will have no matter how hard we investigate and dig down into the issues, is SPECULATION.

The shooter is dead - so he cannot make a statement.

My concern is that will this assassination attempt force the DEMOCRATS to back off their hatred of Donald Trump or will it cause them to escalate their rhetoric?

My guess is that there will be some hard core who will publicly state they are upset the shooter missed.   That the only good Donald Trump is a dead Donald Trump.

What does that tell you about their belief in DEMOCRACY???

Time as a Mirage

Time may not be a fundamental element of the universe but rather an illusion emerging from quantum entanglement, a new study suggests.


Time is a thorny problem for physicists; its inconsistent behavior between our best theories of the universe contributes to a deadlock preventing researchers from finding a "theory of everything," or a framework to explain all of the physics in the universe.


But in the new study, researchers suggest they may have found a clue to solving that problem: by making time a consequence of quantum entanglement, the weird connection between two far-apart particles. The team published their findings May 10 in the journal Physical Review A.                            READ MORE...

Voting

 

In my opinion, one of the greatest privileges of being an American citizen is our ability to VOTE.

We vote for our Congresspeople (House/Senate), our President, our State legislatures (State and Local), and we use our RIGHT TO VOTE to elect and unselect people from office. 

Now, the Democrats want to give that sacred privilege to ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS who broke our laws to enter this country.

We already give these ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS:

• free healthcare
• free housing
• free education
• free food
• free clothes
• free transportation

Now, we should give them the vote without any questions asked?

At some point-in-time, we need to draw the line and if we continue to give them free stuff to the exclusion of our own citizens, then AMERICANS will REBEL.

Illegal Immigrate bring with them:

• a desire to break laws to get what they want
• no proof of skills or abilities
• no proof of immunization
• no proof of values or moral standards
• children to be trafficked
• aggressive dispositions and behaviors
• untreated medical/mental conditions

Let them enter the USA legally.

X-Shaped Structures in Space

This visualization shows C-shaped and reverse-C-shaped plasma bubbles appearing close together in the ionosphere on Oct. 12, 2020, and Dec. 26, 2021, as observed by NASA’s GOLD mission (Image credit: NASA’s Scientific Visualization Studio)




A NASA satellite has spotted unexpected X- and C-shaped structures in Earth’s ionosphere, the layer of electrified gas in the planet’s atmosphere that allows radio signals to travel over long distances.


The ionosphere is an electrified region of Earth's atmosphere that exists because radiation from the sun strikes the atmosphere. Its density increases during the day as its molecules become electrically charged. That's because sunlight causes electrons to break off of atoms and molecules, creating plasma that enables radio signals to travel over long distances. The ionosphere’s density then falls at night — and that's where GOLD comes in.


NASA's Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) mission is a geostationary satellite that has been measuring densities and temperatures in Earth's ionosphere since its launch in October 2018. From its geostationary orbit above the western hemisphere, GOLD was recently studying two dense crests of particles in the ionosphere, located north and south of the equator. As night falls, low-density bubbles appear within these crests that can interfere with radio and GPS signals. However, it's not just the wax and wane of sunshine that affects the ionosphere — the atmospheric layer is also sensitive to solar storms and huge volcanic eruptions, after which the crests can merge to form an X shape.               READ MORE...
