Incoming POTUS just announced a $20 billion dollar partnership with United Arab Emirates company DAMAC Properties to build data centers around the US. In what could be seen as a conflict of interests, DAMAC Properties has been doing business with incoming POTUS for many years. This company did the master-planned residential golf community around Trump International Golf Club in Dubai. The company also invested up to $5 million in POTUS OJ's campaign in 2016. Also, Japanese company SoftBank Group will be investing $100 billion in technology and telecommunications projects over the next 4 years. Politics isn't about red and blue. The c…

SURPRISE!--Another Undetected GREEN COMET Has Just Showed Up Near the Sun! The Three Green Comets; SWANN (2025), ZTF & Nishimura of 2023 Part II-The Swan Comet One possible explanation given for the green comet that just appeared on the SWANN spacecraft and although it was obviously here for many months undetected was that it just exploded and became bright enough to be seen. This explanation only confirms my memory because, although I searched and searched in the past few years for a reference, I could not find any. I absolutely remember reading Biblical commentary about the mysterious 'dark green comet', Wormwood, that may be able to mo…

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/joe-biden-drops-out-oval-office-address/ POTUS PJB officially bowed out of running for re-election. Highlighted his record of governance. Tepidly endorsed VP Harris as nominee. POTUS PJB says that democracy is on the ballot. He seems to believe the country will be less great if Dems don't win again. POTUS PJB vows to continue doing his job until it's time to leave office. Remains to be seen how much he'll support VP Harris as his successor.😎

"For those African Americans who have less than a college education, the loss of manufacturing jobs seriously undermines their opportunities for employment.

What I never hear from various people, black or non black, is nixon was pardoned. USA history shows the president is immune. I know alot of blacks in the usa, I am not certain most, like the concept of individual equality . Maybe want it implemented. But the usa has a heritage of inequality, not equality. I think the frederick douglass folk in the black populace have always believed the usa can become the federation of star trek. The problem is the casualties in the black populace in the usa lalong this journey..... Thank the sister for saying the ship hit the bridge because media keep saying the bridge collapsed like the bridge moved to the container ship. But the …

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/21/trump-putin-summit-uncertain-00616500 No surprise the meeting is off between POTUS OJ and Russian president Vlady Putin at a summit in Budapest, Hungary. Putin is determined to conquer Ukraine. His plans in that regard remain unchanged. Despite the money being wasted on *high-level* meetings and talks regarding the war is Ukraine, Putin has never wavered in his ambitions. Ukrainian president Zelensky showed up last week begging POTUS OJ for Tomahawk missiles. That would level the battlefield. Zelensky left with his beret in hand. The US is purposefully handicapping Ukrai…

Death of Engine Civilization! Throwaway Cars! People with Zero Comprehension of technology are part of the problem. I remember when I was seven years old. I was walking to school with my two older sister. There was a white car parked on the street and I stopped and stared at that car and thought, "When I grow up I'm going to have a car like that." It was a 1957 Thunderbird with the round Opera Windows. I built lots of model cars and planes in grammar school. Including the Visible V-8 engine. I lost interest in cars in high school. They were just transportation machines. Reliability, durability and servi…

https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trump-says-justice-department-owes-him-money-vows-donate-any-payout-charity-2025-10-21/ POTUS OJ has floated the idea that the US government by way of Department of Justice owes him $230 million dollars for past cases against him. Several companies have already paid POTUS OJ in one way or another. With his various forms of grift, he could could amass multimillion or a billion dollars before leaving office. The $230 million shakedown is a case study in a conflict of interest considering POTUS OJ would be signing his own check. As mentioned before, these next 3 years and change are goi…

JOHN TORNOW: VILLAIN OR VICTIM? is a historical novel of the "Wildman of the Wynooche," who was alleged to have killed six people, starting with his 19-year-old twin nephews, William and John Bauer in 1911. The suspicion was laid to Tornow and it touched off a 19-month manhunt, the longest in Pacific Northwest history, before he was killed in a firefight on April 16, 1913. This story attempts to unveil as much of the truth as we know, based on 28 years of research, talking to descendants of neighbors, friends and relatives of the Tornow family.

TikTok banning on book publishing MY THOUGHTS 1) tiktok is the most popular website in modern humanity so replacing its algorithm joined to its userbase will be a challenge- many websites will try but i think many will fail, an expensive failure 2) outside a website with a similar userbase size [google/meta] a website with a smaller relative userbase that succeeds with a sharper marketing style will lack the exposure or outreach of a larger userbase 3) Book readers will survive and at the end of the day the Booktok model will survive maybe mirrored in various places that will require book lovers to know where to be online.

https://www.newsweek.com/ukraine-trump-zelensky-aid-2013465 POTUS PJB is on his way out the door. To date, his administration has sent $65.9 billion dollars to Ukraine fighting an unwinnable war. In the meantime, politicians will tell the American people there isn't enough money for eliminating diseases, universal health care, providing food and housing to every citizen and eliminating student loan debt, etc. It reminds me of someone asking for $10 dollars and a person pulls a $10 thousand dollar wad of cash from their pocket and says, I don't have it.🤣 American taxpayers are financing endeavors that are not remotely within…
