Politics and the Media
Mainstream Media which includes CNN, CBS, MSNBC, and ABC have, since 2016 (and possibly earlier) slanted the news, suppressed the news, and/or eliminated the news by not reporting it... IF made the DEMOCRATIC PARTY LOOK BAD.
This is the kind of behavior that one would expect to take place in countries like China, Russia, North Korea, India, the Middle East, and other countries that embrace SOCIALISM and COMMUNISM and DICTATORSHIPS.
Up until recently, the USA has never been that type of country, although, there have been times where our government has asked the PRESS not to publish stories that might negatively impact national security... and while that too is wrong, it is still somewhat understandable.
Our country's values were based upon and predicated upon FREEDOM OF THE PRESS, not the PRESS deciding what stories to publish and what stories not to, and certainly not to align themselves with political parties.
It would appear that the LIBERAL DEMOCRATIC party has gotten control of mainstream media and is making an attempt to influence how the media is reporting the news of the day in the hopes of influence public opinion in THEIR FAVOR
ARE THEY AFRAID THAT PUBLIC OPINION WOULD GO AGAINST THEM, IF THE PUBLIC KNEW THE TRUTH OF THEIR ACTIONS???
This type of control of the media is only done when a group of people have something to HIDE.
The TRUTH is the TRUTH so why do the DEMOCRATS want to SLANT THE TRUTH in order to favor them?
Is the general public THAT NAIVE???

Law & Order America
.jpg)
The United States of America prides itself on being a country that is full of law-abiding citizens, and when laws are broken that JUSTICE IS BLIND... that is to say everyone is treated equally under the law.
HOWEVER...
most of us who are fortunate enough to live to the age of 40 and beyond, come to realize that AMERICAN LAW is not equally applied, and that JUSTICE IS NOT BLIND.
For instance...
- The law is applied differently to white citizens than it is to black citizens.
- Wealthy people can hire better lawyers than poor people can, so the law is applied differently.
- The law is applied differently to sons and daughters of elected officials with the understanding that the higher the elected position, the more legal protection one has.
- If you are super wealthy, the odds are the law does not really apply to you at all... although, there are some exceptions.
- Illegal immigration is a new approach on how the laws of the USA are not applied equally.
- In small towns in the SOUTH, the laws are applied differently to locals and those passing through.
- We also have knowledge of building inspectors taking bribes so that the building codes can be over-looked.
- We all know that law enforcement breaks the law all the time, in order to catch criminals.
- Recently, the law has been used to try and stop a political opponent, which is a new twist on how differently the law is applied.
America is a country full of laws, that are broken all the time by its citizens... so much so, that it is almost laughable that we call ourselves a country of LAWS.
Life on Earth Came From SPACE
New evidence has emerged suggesting that the building blocks of life were delivered to the primordial Earth from space by meteorites, a finding that could help scientists hunt for alien life.
These meteorites would have been the fractured remains of early "unmelted asteroids," a type of planetesimal. Planetesimals are small rocky bodies that served as the main building blocks of the solar system's rocky planets, including Earth.
They were formed around 4.6 billion years ago in the disk of dust and gas around the infant sun as particles around our young star began to stick together, accreting more mass and making progressively larger bodies. READ MORE...

Wake Up America
.jpg)
We live in the greatest country in the world, mainly because of our FREEDOMS and OPPORTUNITIRES but also because of:
- our natural resources
- our education systems
- our businesses & industries
- research and inventions
- our landscape varieties
- our military strength
- our recreation
- our entertainment
We also live in a country that is on the verge of LOSING IT ALL because HALF OF US want to move from capitalism to SOCIALISM...
Right now, capitalism is FUNDING our SOCIALISTIC PROGRAMS... and we have many of those...
EVERYTHING THAT IS PUBLIC is SOCIALISM and paid for by our tax dollars.
Those tax dollars DON'T come from the WEALTHY because they have their money sheltered in offshore bank accounts.
You have to be STUPID not to understand that if the money does not come from the wealthy that it MUST come from the rest of us.
NOTHING IS FREE
SOMEONE MUST PAY
THAT SOMEONE IS US
WAKE UP AMERICA
Stopping Energy Loss
Preventing tungsten atoms from entering the plasma is one of the biggest challenges of modern nuclear fusion reactors, and researchers at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) may have found a solution to fix it.
The discovery, which uses boron powder to shield tokamak walls from the extreme heat of fusion, presents a solid strategy for achieving sustainable fusion energy, per a PPPL, U.S. Department of Energy, press release published on Monday.
“We’ve developed a new way to understand how injected boron material behaves in a fusion plasma and how it interacts with the walls of fusion reactors to keep them in good condition while they are operating,” Florian Effenberg, a staff research physicist at PPPL, said in the press release.

The USA in Transition
The United States of America is the greatest country in the world and has been since 1945. The USA has had global dominance for 80 years, just two decades shy of a century.
That's quite an accomplishment for a country that is about only 250 years old.
HOWEVER... the elite status of the USA is about to change and is already in the process of that transition.
First Transition - our freedoms have put us into a position where the people are demanding more and more of the government. The more the government provides to the public, the more socialistic the government becomes. Our current national debt is an example of how we have already given too much, and it is going to be very difficult for our government to STOP THE GIVING.
Second Transition - during the last four years, our government has allowed illegal immigrants to enter this country in unprecedented numbers. It does not matter what the purpose is behind this decision, but what does matter is that these illegal immigrants bring NO SKILLS therefore all they will serve to do is INCREASE the POOR CLASS. Increasing the poor class will not strengthen the USA, it will weaken it because the poor class TAKES more than it GIVES.
Third Transition - the USA has an infrastructure problem in that its roads, highways, bridges, and tunnels NEED REFURBISHING because they are getting old and will start to have ongoing repair issues. Not only is our infrastructure need refurbishing but our military needs this as well. Does the government spend money on social programs, social security, infrastructure, or the military?
Fourth Transition - the USA, for a variety of reasons, has become divided. While we have two political parties in this country, the political party that is not in power REFUSES to support the political party that is in power. To make matter worse, that division is an amazing 50%. Now, it might be 49%/51% so that one side wins, but that is the same as 50/50. NOTHING WILL EVER GET DONE, especially if a house of Congress is controlled by the other party.
Fifth Transition - this one is twofold and perhaps the most dangerous as it is in the first stages of development. I am talking about TECHNOLOGY and our SPACE PROGRAM. Fortunately, and unfortunately, these two programs will not be controlled by the government due to LACK OF MONEY. Technology is developing faster than it can be controlled or regulated by Congress and AI Humanoid Robots will replace jobs quicker than we can mentally imagine and when that happens it will be too late to act. When we begin to serious develop outer space (around 2030), private companies will no longer see the need to SAVE EARTH from all that plagues it.
Sixth Transition - this one revolves around climate change and what some have convinced others is our most serious threat. It will take a GOOD DECADE to fully transition into a 100% global green energy environment, if that is even possible. IF depends quite honestly on the rest of the world's participation. China, Russia, India, Africa, the Middle East, Central and South America, DON'T HAVE THE MONEY to make that transition. China, Russia, India refuses to spend the money because it will weaken their economies. The more the USA moves into that direction, the more the POOR PEOPLE will resist because they do not have the money. Illegal Immigration makes the problem worse.
Seventh Transition - China has declared to the rest of the world that they want to take the global leadership role away from the USA. They want to do this both economically and militarily and educationally and scientifically which includes technology. The USA does not see CHINA as a THREAT.
The Democratic Party sees POWER and CONTROL over the citizens of the USA more important than protecting the USA from CHINA...
This position is a dangerous one to have...
