Some more angry and somewhere outraged and some will just use this for political advantage. Former President Barack Obama celebrated his 60th birthday with a celebrity fueled crowd, mask list dancing and no social distancing.  There’s even word that environmentally safe John Carrie arrived on his gas guzzling private jet.. But what makes matters a bit more troubling politically, and also just terrible in the optics category, is this: Rapper Trap Beckham and manager TJ Chapman discreetly snapped pics of the event’s high-end food, drink and swag offerings and talked to their followers as the party unfolded, according to screenshots of the posts, which were later deleted under the event’s photography ban. Gold napkins, masks and backstage passes were emblazoned with 44X60, a reference to the 44th president’s 60th birthday, and bathroom amenities included antiperspirant wipes, a lint roller and Advil, according to the pictures. As usual TMZ had the scoop  about residents ange...

Just hours ago, Joseph Trevithick reported this on THE DRIVE: CURIOUS MISSION FLOWN OVER THE BALTIC SEA BY US AIR FORCE NUKE SNIFFING PLANE... The headline should raise as many eyebrows as a Cold War numbers station! What was the mission for?  This was the report: The U.S. Air Force's lone WC-135W Constant Phoenix "nuke sniffer" aircraft flew an unusual mission over the Baltic Sea today. This plane is typically used to collect air samples to monitor for spikes in radiation levels in the atmosphere, but can also be employed after nuclear weapon tests and atomic accidents to help glean more information about those events and track the potential spread of dangerous radioactive material. The WC-135W, which has the serial number 61-2667, carried out the flight, using the callsign Jake 21, from RAF Mildenhall in the United Kingdom, according to flight tracking data from ADS-B Exchange . Constant Phoenix aircraft have regularly used Mildenhall, which also routinely supports...

 The tragic and horrific shooting of Anthony Barajas and his girlfriend at a Corona California movie theater led to a worldwide outpouring of grief for the TikTok star.. The couple were murdered execution style during the film FOREVER PURGE.. Now more chilling details about the night of the killing on July 26 are being revealed with reporting from the LA TIMES: Corona Det. Jason Goudy said six people were in the audience for the 9:35 p.m. movie. Jimenez, 20, was watching the movie with three friends. He left halfway through, returning with a bag and informing them that he had a “strap,” according to the warrant. The friends told investigators that they believed Jimenez, who was mumbling and talking to himself, had brought a gun into the theater. They told him they needed to use the bathroom, then left the theater, the warrant said. That left only Barajas and Goodrich inside with Jimenez. Jimenez’s friends were still in the parking lot when they saw him “run outside the theater and ...

 Art Bell and Whitley Strieber both appeared on the NBC Today Show 21 years ago to talk about their joint collaborative book: THE COMING GLOBAL SUPERSTORM.. In their project, both foretold of a world where the global weather patterns would be thrown into chaos.. where the Gulf Stream would shut down because of rampant global warming..  And ironically how all of this warming and changing could throw the planet back into an ice age of epic proportions. Matt Lauer--where is he now again??--grilled the two and did his best to label the whole concept pseudo science: A few years later the concept was put into practice by Hollywood with the release of the film THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. The coming global superstorm turned into box office profits with the Statue of Liberty being flooded and then frozen in dramatic CGI effects for the time in 2004. x x x  But experts always knew that alarming things could happen if the Gulf Stream stopped. Weather around the planet would be in utter ...

Wildfires are raging through Greece and Turkey, forcing thousands to flee, and killing a volunteer firefighter on the fringes of Athens in a huge forest blaze that threatened the Greek capital’s most important national park. Eight people have died in Turkey’s blazes, described as the worst in decades, that swept through parts of the southern coast for the past 10 days. Greece has suffered from record heat, and the Civil Protection chief Nikos Hardalias said firefighters faced “exceptionally dangerous, unprecedented conditions” as they battled 154 wildfires Friday, with 64 still burning into the night. Flames swept through a residential town outside Athens overnight as wildfires burned across Greece for a fifth day, and hundreds of people were evacuated by ferry from the island of Evia east of the capital https://t.co/gHkg9p5OMb pic.twitter.com/GCL6hK4wYI — Reuters (@Reuters) August 7, 2021 These are armageddon style images on a developing and devastating situation ..  

 Delta.. Lambda.. and now Delta + .. It's beginning to sound like a mixture of different streaming platforms for download.. But these Greek letters all represent new stains of COVID-19 that are circulating around the planet.. While some have argued that until all Americans are vaccinated these will continue to develop, others point out that many of these are coming from other parts of the world. America is not the end all, just a mixture on a big planet .. until the entire PLANET is vaccinated we are behind the eight ball on COVID.. it has time to develop and get smarter. Sure, you can point out that viruses don't have a brain.. eventually they will weaken, you'll profess. One day COVID will be as dangerous as the common cold!  While all of that may be true,  it sure seems the danger is steadily increasing as opposing to lessening. The new COVID Delta variant in the United States is getting more people sick quicker--and these people are younger. A startling essay from Hea...

 Netflix finally dropped a new promotional ad for STRANGER THINGS 4 -- but it wasn't much to see.. You can judge for yourself; The 'teaser' was more of a clip-by-clip rehash of seasons 1 through 3--even a little promo was included to remind viewers that those first three seasons were still on Netflix.. But the real news, if there is any, is a very much alive and thinner Hopper holding what appears to be a weapon in one second of the clip, and Eleven with long hair ... The show will be dropping in 2022. That's right, 2022. The biggest obstacle Netflix may now face is lack of interest. With the crew from Hawkins aging quickly, how much more can these delays do to hurt a potential season 5? Or ..is four it and then the branch off shows with side characters and other stories? As always we will happily watch season 4. But .. it sure gets tough waiting when the last time we saw the gang was Fourth of July so many years ago now.

Google   has banned Sky News Australia from uploading content to YouTube for one week after the news platform allegedly breached its rules on spreading so-called 'Covid misinformation'. According to the channel, the videos that provoked the censorship included 'debates around whether masks were effective and whether lockdowns were justified when considering their adverse health outcomes'.   According to all media reports, the platform did not say which specific video violated terms of service, but further strikes against the channel could result in more prohibitions or even, at worst, permanent cancellation altogether.

 WITH ICELAND'S POPULATION NEARING RECORD LEVELS OF VACCINATED POPULATION, THIS NEWS IS CAUSING SURPRISE IN THE NATION: 15 YEARS OF RESTRICTIONS!?

 These highly frightening headlines are being reported in the United Kingdom: A sage warns that some future yet unknown variant could be responsible for killing up to 1 in 3 people who get it!! That it will be worse than MERS.. That we will have a deadly future.. This from the UK publication the EVENING STANDARD: Dr Philippa Whitford, vice-chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Coronavirus, told Mail Online : “This report, which should have sent shock waves through the UK Government, was instead quietly snuck out among a glut of reports during parliamentary recess. “Recommendations and comments made by SAGE bring home the simple reality — that we have not yet "defeated" this virus. “The UK only donated its first vaccine doses internationally this week and, unless there is a rapid increase in global production, through sharing knowledge and technology, it simply will not be possible to vaccinate the world and bring the pandemic to an end. “Without stricter border contro...
