Right. I've watched many angles of the Alex Pretti shooting. Two things are 100% clear. 1.Both hands are on the ground from the entire time he was crouched. He never went for his gun. 2.The officer in grey removed his gun and a second later Pretti was repeatedly shot by the officer in olive jacket.

RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.

This isn't a rival to the UN, because you can be sure that behind this is Trumps before stated vision of turning Gaza into a Riviera style "playground of the rich" where Palestinians will have little opportunity to govern and will simply be the cheep labour for constructing this vision.

I've only ever seen one Kelvin Helmholtz cloud with my own eyes, until today, when I spotted another! First picture (red skies) was in Toowoomba several years ago. Second is from today in Lismore.

This is disgusting. They screw wages down and destroy jobs through automation so they can maximise profits and build vast fortunes, but someone holding onto a working device while it still works is affecting work productivity? That's FCKN unhinged.
