A whole bunch of Yoots that thought they could get away with stealing things

Kids from Philly for a tournament got a surprise….

But they weren’t in Philadelphia….

They were in Florida, which, unlike that Blue City, is a Red State…where they take such crimes seriously.

2 felonies each.

Plus their team lost the tournament without them.

The odd part is they named the kids even though they were apparently juveniles.

Plus their team lost the tournament without them.

Round two in forcing you into a digital currency:

Feds say they are mulling stopping the clearing of paper checks.

soon, no more dollar bills (which wear out MUCH faster than coins)/

Remember, they can track digital money….and stop your account from accepting payments OR dispersing payments with a few keystrokes…

I gotta start thinking about this carefully: We are getting more and more porch pirate activity even here in the more rural parts of NW Indiana.

I really need to find out if this is fully legal here first though. I hope it is. If so, it’ll be fun….

And I need to find a source for the colored dye “explosive” devices too.

Take a moment.

Brits warned of “SuperFlu” and warned to wear masks

A ‘drifted’ influenza A(H3N2) strain, also now known as ‘subclade K’ or ‘super flu’, is dominating cases and health leaders have warned the flu season started ‘unusually early’ this year – while virology experts are leading growing calls for mask wearing.

Expect the folks in charge to try and move this to the next pandemic….they need the control over the population.

I cannot help but think that there are  people in Washington DC just waiting for it to come here so they can use it like they use Covid…..2026 is a midterm year, after all…. and will include all 435 seats in the House of Representatives,  and 35 Senate seats,

Think about it… Expect a push for mail-in (or phone-in) ballots.

I could be wrong but I probably am not…

So an early arctic cold front has come down from Canada…

It’s about Zero Fahrenheit here (Neg 17 for those who live in countries that use the incorrect units of measure)

Where are the folks that tell us all bout Global Warming every time it gets a degree hotter than normal in the summer? Why aren’t they screaming “Global Coolin!!!!?!! when stuff like this happened?

I am guessing that the “Jan 6 Bomber” is a Democrat. If he was conservative, had ever given a single dime to Republican causes, had ever talked with a republican, had ever shared a meal with a conservative, we’d have heard about it by now….

‘Tis funny how, once they bothered to look, that the FBI found evidence to charge and arrest the guy.

The FBI is, however (and always has been) willing to bow to political pressure……So I doubt that anyone bothered to look at the evidence (or at least not very hard) until they were forced to…

And it is interesting that the dude was so terribly inept that although he could buy timers and batteries and switches and pieces of pipe to make something that looked like a scary bomb he never made on that worked very well.

Almost like he was supposed to only scare people, not actually make anything explode and harm anyone…..And never really be found.

(Lets set aside the fact that the “Bombs” were  unlikely  to actually explode and that this asshole was likely a patsy set up by the ATF to make the Jan 6th people look bad)

Then again this could be a method of attempting to divert our attention from the Epstein files that we still haven’t seen yet.

America-first’ pricing: National park fees to increase for foreign visitors in 2026

Personally, I think that as long as there is a line then the visitors should be limited to less than 1% non-citizens.
