CDC issues bizarre guidance for having sex with monkeypox
Is it *really* that hard to keep it in your pants while you have open, weeping sores? *Really?*

“Red Flag Laws” are *supposed* to be a way to temporarily disarm people who are a danger to themselves or others. Who could argue against them? Well… anyone who has ever noticed that they are not based on due process. They are not based on sober judgement of people who understand the gravity of depriving a person of their Constitutional and human rights. They are, sadly, based on the whims of people who have, and like to exercise, power. Witness:
>I am not in principle opposed to red flag laws.
You should be. https://t.co/g7PDvOlf4D

Remember, Eric Swalwell is the Representative who not only bedded a Chinese Communist spy and did untold damage to the US (with no repercussions as far as I can tell), he’s also the guy who thought it would be a good idea to threat American citizens who do not wish to give up their rights. Threatening to use *nuclear* *weapons* on these citizens. Do you think it would be a good idea to turn over the power to deprive a citizen of their rights to a man with judgement like that?

Wow:
Linton-on-Ouse: ‘No decision’ in controversial asylum centre plans
In short… the British government plans to implant 1,500 military age foreign men into a village with a total native population of 600. Men from cultures *very* different from English, with whole different ideas about just how wrong it is to sexually assault girls (and probably boys as well).
There is no good end to this story. And the people in charge fully know this… and they’re not just doing it anyway, they’re accelerating it.

First up: “President” Joe Biden says that a 9mm bullet from a pistol is “high caliber” and will blow a lung out of your body.Consequently, there’s “no rational basis” for having something as “high caliber” as a 9mm for “self protection” or hunting
He lies and says you couldn’t buy a cannon when the 2nd Amendment was written, when the government was also handing out letters of Marque and Reprisal, allowing private ship owners to work as armed privateers. He also says “you couldn’t go out and purchase a lot of weapons” when the 2nd Amendment was written (“citation needed”).
The man who fled from Afghanistan goes on to say that in order to take on the government you need an F-15 or an Abrams tank. Which is why the Ukrainians, lacking F-15s and Abrams tanks, were conquered overnight by the Russians, I guess?? Then he goes on to say that “everybody’s getting more rational” about gun-grabbing.
And then Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau goes ahead and gives a damn fine reason for Quebec to declare independence, opening the door for the western provinces to go their own way. A semi-autonomous region from from Alaska through BC and Alberta and Saskatchewan and Yukon down through Montana, the Dakotas to Texas through Iowa and Nebraska and New Mexico is looking better and better. Persuade Cook County to secede from Illinois and boy, do we have a deal.
To all those who would have citizens surrender their right to self defense to the same party that supports defunding the police, collective punishment for grievances from generations ago and wiping out vast swathes of their own offspring… how about “no.”

‘‘Federal Firearm Licensing Act’’
Introduced by Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.).
Except as provided in subsection (d), it shall be unlawful for any individual to purchase or receive a firearm unless the individual has a valid Federal firearm license.
The license will be issued if the Attorney General feels like issuing it, only after the prospective gin owner has completed a lengthy, inconvenient and expensive series of bureaucratic red tape procedures. And even then, the license will only be for *one* gun (the serial number of which will be recorded with the Feds, thus creating a Federal gun registry, just the thing for when they decide to confiscate), and only last for five years. So you’ll have to spend probably around a thousand dollars every five years for each firearm you own.
This does not *technically* strip a person of their right to keep and bear arms, but it *effectively* will do so. For starters, a vast number of people won’t be able to take time off from work to drive the fifty miles to take a multi-day series of classes and tests, nor will they be able to pay the exorbitant fees. They certainly won’t be able to do this every five years for a number of guns. And since issuing the license will be at the discretion of the Feds, *after* the prospective gun owner has lost work and spent money, receiving the license will doubtless end up being a matter of who you know, how politically connected you are, how skilled you are at greasing palms.
This new law would require that this process be carried out for private transfers as well, including gifts and inheritance. You will no longer be able to sell your shotgun to your neighbor; you’ll have to go through the process *and* transfer the firearm through a federal firearms dealer, often many miles away.
What’s better: for each license, the prospective gun owner will need a background check. In the list of things that would automatically strip you of the right to such a license is included this nugget:
any recent acquisition of firearms, ammunition, or other deadly weapons
You will be barred from buying a gun if you’ve recently bought *ammunition.*

Boeing *used* to have their headquarters where they actually made stuff. Then they moved to Chicago (far, far away from their manufacturing capabilities), and since then their ability to make stuff has been… kind of a joke.Now they’re moving to the region of D.C. Their ability to make stuff can be assumed to be at an end.
Boeing will move its headquarters to DC area from Chicago
Maybe Elon Musk could buy Boeings factories? It’s not like Boeing will have much further need for them, now that they will be a full-time Lobbying Corporation.

California lawmaker found with loaded handgun in his luggage at Sacramento airport
Not just any lawmaker… this is Assemblyman Jim Cooper D-Elk Grove, who in 2016 authored a bill to ban the right to make your own firearm. He doesn’t want *you* to have a gun, but boy howdy he sure wants his own.
If this was *you,* you’d spend a good chunk of the rest of your life in prison. This guy? No charges. In fact, they held onto his gun for him, returning it as soon as he got back from his trip. Why? Because he’s former law enforcement, and they’re allowed to have firearms in certain areas of the airport. Where they’re *not* allowed to take a firearm is on an airplane, where he was trying to take his gun, stashed in his man-purse.
If these jackholes didn’t have double standards, they’d have no standards at all.

Finally, we know production costs for SLS and Orion, and they’re wild
…the operational costs alone for a single Artemis launch—for just the rocket, Orion spacecraft, and ground systems—will total $4.1 billion.
…$2.2 billion to build a single SLS rocket, $568 million for ground systems, $1 billion for an Orion spacecraft, and $300 million to the European Space Agency for Orion’s Service Module.
…NASA will spend $93 billion from 2012 to 2025 on the Artemis program.
Gosh, If Only there was some alternative launch vehicle program that we could turn to that could potentially launch at a rate higher than once a year and at vastly lower cost…

An attempted coup in Belarus? If it fails… well…
Lukashenka committed treason – he made our country a participant in the invasion of Ukraine. So I declared myself as the national leader of Belarus to protect the sovereignty & independence of our country, represent it in security negotiations & crisis management in the region. pic.twitter.com/IyQ0YOM7Kf
