Cleveland Guardians' launch starts with store sign crashing to sidewalk

"CLEVELAND -- A special opening day for the newly named Cleveland Guardians began with a bang.

Not the one they hoped for, either.

While fans were buying the first available Guardians merchandise on Friday as the team officially transitioned from Indians after 106 years, a sign installed outside the team store at Progressive Field broke free from its mount and crashed to the sidewalk.

"Well, that's an ominous sign," yelled one onlooker....Read all.

New poll shows overwhelming majority of West Virginia voters support Joe Manchin's opposition to Biden's massive spending bill - TheBlaze: 

Manchin has been the target of Democrats who are incensed that the senator would not fully support the massive spending spree. Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) was so furious with Manchin for blocking Biden's "Build Back Better" spending plan that she accused him of being "anti-Black, anti-child, anti-woman, and anti-immigrant."

This is a huge setback for that effort.”...Read all.

Horowitz: Are elites planning a COVID repeat ... with smallpox? - TheBlaze

Horowitz: Are elites planning a COVID repeat ... with smallpox? - TheBlaze: 

So when Bill Gates is warning about smallpox right before vials of smallpox are discovered, and in the same week a Maryland woman tests positive for monkeypox, we should pay attention. But that is not even the punch line. Just like with coronavirus, they were already working on a "cure." On June 4, the CDC randomly approved a smallpox drug, Tembexa (brincidofovir), because "there have been longstanding concerns that the virus that causes smallpox, the variola virus, could be used as a bioweapon."

How Michigan's UIA shrugged off a $4 billion mistake | Michigan | thecentersquare.com
"(The Center Square) – When an audit found that Michigan’s Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) paid out nearly $4 billion in ineligible claims, the agency acknowledged “some errors were made.”
...“The agency had two choices: 

• Either get the money out the door as soon as possible 
• and don’t verify anyone’s eligibility, 
• or they verify the eligibility, and it takes a little bit longer to get the money,” Johnson said. 

“That decision cost the state of Michigan $4 billion.”
...Senior UIA staff said said that former UIA Director Steve Gray “made unilateral decisions” before his Nov. 2020 resignation and then, at that time, secretly pocketed an $85,872 severance deal and a confidentiality agreement amid months of record jobless claims.

Top general in US military warns of possible surprise nuclear attack from China, cites hypersonic missile tests and new silos: 'Should create a sense of urgency' - TheBlaze

Top general in US military warns of possible surprise nuclear attack from China, cites hypersonic missile tests and new silos: 'Should create a sense of urgency' - TheBlaze: 

The general also noted that for some reason the summertime hypersonic failed to create a "sense of urgency." This laissez-faire attitude was reflected in White House press secretary Jen Psaki's statement following initial reports of the summer's surprise hypersonic tests. According to Psaki, the people in the Biden administration "welcome stiff competition." Hyten seems to have a slightly different take.

Wait what? FDA wants 55 years to process FOIA request over vaccine data | Reuters

"(Reuters) - Freedom of Information Act requests are rarely speedy, but when a group of scientists asked the federal government to share the data it relied upon in licensing Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine, the response went beyond typical bureaucratic foot-dragging.

As in 55 years beyond.

That’s how long the Food & Drug Administration in court papers this week proposes it should be given to review and release the trove of vaccine-related documents responsive to the request. 

If a federal judge in Texas agrees, plaintiffs Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency can expect to see the full record in 2076...Read all.

Rittenhouse VERDICT WATCH: Has Jury Foreperson Gone Rogue And Holding Back Acquittal?

• MY SUSPICION: JUROR #54, FOREPERSON, IS THE HOLDOUT AGAINST ACQUITTAL

"I have a growing suspicion that this jury has not yet arrived at a unanimous verdict of acquittal only because of the resistance of juror #54, a woman who also happens to be the foreperson, who seems to be the hold-out against acquittal.
The jury selection risk to Kyle was always going to be that a “mask Karen” type, usually of leftist political persuasion, bossy, entitled, and status-sensitive, would be seated on the jury. 

Such a person would be most unlikely to ever vote for acquittal—her social group would necessarily know she had done so, given the unanimous nature of an acquittal.
In addition, this type of person is likely to seize the leadership position of foreperson on a jury, to suit their bossy and entitled nature...
Then we have the jury note from yesterday asking for access to the Exhibit #5 drone video footage and related evidence. It was written by juror #54, the jury foreperson, and an apparent woman:

The tone of that note suggests to me that the person who wrote it is accustomed to giving orders to underlings—personal assistants, staff, household help—and here the note is being addressed in this tone to the trial judge as if the judge were a staffer to the jury foreperson...Read all.
