TIL there’s a submerged island in the Mediterranean that has only surfaced 4 or 5 times since the Punic Wars. During its last resurfacing in 1831, the island became subject to territorial dispute by European powers until it submerged again the following year.

Real journalist Sharyl Attkisson reads a passage from her bestselling book, Follow the $cience:
"[In 2021], to make the Covid shot seem successful... the CDC unilaterally redefined 200 years of the world's understanding of what constitutes a vaccine without so much as an explanation, public discussion, hearing, or vote".
"Once you understand that our top trusted medical authorities are willing to sneakily move goalposts and change meanings of words to protect a market, you're a long way to beginning to understand how deep the corruption goes."

"When residents of Equatorial Guinea’s Annobón island wrote to the government in Malabo in July last year complaining about the dynamite explosions by a Moroccan construction company, they didn’t expect the swift end to their internet access.
Dozens of the signatories and residents were imprisoned for nearly a year, while internet access to the small island has been cut off since then, according to several residents and rights groups.
Local residents interviewed by The Associated Press left the island in the past months, citing fear for their lives and the difficulty of life without internet.
Banking services have shut down, hospital services for emergencies have been brought to a halt and residents say they rack up phone bills they can’t afford because cellphone calls are the only way to communicate.
When governments shut down the internet, they often instruct telecom providers to cut connections to designated locations or access to designated websites, although it’s unclear exactly how the shutdown works in Annobón." https://apnews.com/article/equatorial-guinea-internet-shutdown-africa-d7daacc641475743972b33eaffffa4fc

You’d think that Reuters would at least do a past search of their articles before posting something volatile. But they can’t since rational thought goes out the window when they are blinded by rage for Trump. The media has become such a joke; that is why everyone ignores them now.

"The Age of Industry has become to the Northerner what the Antebellum Era was to the Southerner. Any attempt to restore the technological glory we once built is dismissed by countless elites as the Lost Cause of the North. It is one Northerners are reminded of every time they venture into the hollowed out shells and ruins of their once great cities. For far too long we believed that we could mould the world in our image, and that our economic and industrial system could be replicated with ease in any human society. The key lesson that the Northerner must learn is that his values are exceptional, found in few other places in the world. For this reason there must be concerted efforts to advance the unique cultures of the North. Therefore, Northerners must rebuild their land into independent societies, and so establish the New Cantons."

In the glorious Socialist Republic of France, where Malthusian Keynesians work overtime to enslave citizens into their paychecks, it’s hardly shocking that pensioners now out-earn the workers funding their retirements. With a jaw-dropping 74% replacement rate — among the highest in the OECD — and 14% of GDP poured into pensions, France has turned retirement into a state-sponsored luxury. The average French retiree collects €1,626 a month, roughly 2% more than the poor souls still working. Meanwhile, American, British, and Australian retirees politely settle for less than their workers. Naturally, rising retiree demands mean rising taxes, with workers now forced to tithe 8.55% of their income to keep the system afloat.
Vive la redistribution!

Were the Corinthians Roman colonists?
When modern Christians think of the people to whom Paul wrote his letters, normally they think of the Greeks. "Corinth is no longer inhabited by any of the old Corinthians, but by colonists sent out by the Romans. This change is due to the Achaean League. The Corinthians, being members of it, joined in the war against the Romans, which Critolaus, when appointed general of the Achaeans, brought about by persuading to revolt both the Achaeans and the majority of the Greeks outside the Peloponnesus. When the Romans won the war, they carried out a general disarmament of the Greeks and dismantled the walls of such cities as were fortified. Corinth was laid waste by Mummius, who at that time commanded the Romans in the field, and it is said that it was afterwards refounded by Caesar, who was the author of the present constitution of Rome." Lucius Mummius was praetor and proconsul around 153–152BC. Julius Caesar: lived around 100BC–44BC.

A REAL DISGRACE took place at the United Nations yesterday — Not one, not two, but three very sinister events! First, the escalator going up to the Main Speaking Floor came to a screeching halt. It stopped on a dime. It’s amazing that Melania and I didn’t fall forward onto the sharp edges of these steel steps, face first. It was only that we were each holding the handrail tightly or, it would have been a disaster. This was absolutely sabotage, as noted by a day’s earlier “post” in The London Times that said UN workers “joked about turning off an escalator.” The people that did it should be arrested! Then, as I stood before a Television crowd of millions of people all over the World, and important Leaders in the Hall, my teleprompter didn’t work. It was stone cold dark. I immediately thought to myself, “Wow, first the escalator event, and now a bad teleprompter. What kind of a place is this?” I then proceeded to make a Speech without a teleprompter, which kicked in about 15 minutes later. The good news is the Speech has gotten fantastic reviews. Maybe they appreciated the fact that very few people could have done what I did. And third, after making the Speech, I was told that the sound was completely off in the Auditorium where the Speech was made, that World Leaders, unless they used the interpreters’ earpieces, couldn’t hear a thing. The first person I saw at the conclusion of the Speech was Melania, who was sitting right up front. I said, “How did I do?” And she said, “I couldn’t hear a word you said.” This wasn’t a coincidence, this was triple sabotage at the UN. They ought to be ashamed of themselves. I’m sending a copy of this letter to the Secretary General, and I demand an immediate investigation. No wonder the United Nations hasn’t been able to do the job that they were put in existence to do. All security tapes at the escalator should be saved, especially the emergency stop button. The Secret Service is involved. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

"I’ve interviewed all the victims, There's never been an instance where Trump was on a plane with these kids and the r-pes occurred. But that can't be said for Clinton. And it can't be said for others."
