  1. Report: FBI Office Warned Of ‘War’ At U.S. Capitol Despite Claim Attack Was Unknown TOPLINE An FBI office in Virginia issued an explicit warning that extremists were planning to travel to Washington, D.C., to commit violence and “war” the day before the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to an internal report obtained by The Washington Post, directly contradicting the bureau’s previous claim that it had no intelligence to predict last Wednesday’s siege. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jemimamcevoy/2021/01/12/report-fbi-office-warned-of-war-at-us-capitol-despite-claim-attack-was-unknown/?sh=4394b2cf290d Why were the Capitol Police not allowed to be ready with riot gear , gas masks and ready to repel any attack with massive tear gas ?

  5. Six Republican senators — Mitt Romney, Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy, Rob Portman, Lisa Murkowski, and Ben Sasse — voted to advance the commission bill. https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/capitol-riot-senate-vote-05-28-21/index.html
  6. I did not know that , don't follow that close , my kids are adults and vaccinated.
  7. 12-17 just starting to be able to get vaccinated pfizer, more available when moderna is approved for those ages. This group is needed to get back to school fulltime. The bigger reluctance is from adult republicans. If they want to risk getting covid that's their choice .
  8. Microsoft says SolarWinds hackers have struck again at the US and other countries The hackers behind one of the worst data breaches ever to hit the US government have launched a new global cyberattack on more than 150 government agencies, think tanks and other organizations, according to Microsoft. The group, which Microsoft calls "Nobelium," targeted 3,000 email accounts at various organizations this week — most of which were in the United States, the company said in a blog post Thursday. It believes the hackers are part of the same Russian group behind last year's devastating attack on SolarWinds — a software vendor — that targeted at least nine US federal agencies and 100 companies. https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/28/tech/microsoft-solarwinds-russia-hack-intl-hnk/index.html I guess the pipeline warning wasn't enough to scare Russia , this could get ugly Fired director of U.S. cyber agency Chris Krebs explains why President Trump's claims of election interference are false Chris Krebs, a lifelong Republican, was put in charge of the agency handling election security by President Trump two years ago. When Krebs said the election was the country's most secure ever, Mr. Trump fired him. Now, Krebs speaks to Scott Pelley. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/election-results-security-chris-krebs-60-minutes-2020-11-29/
  9. Lest we forget : White nationalists use tiki torches to light up Charlottesville march August 14, 2017 Friday’s march unfolded a day ahead of a rally designed to “Unite the Right.” White nationalists and other right-wing groups converged in Charlottesville, Virginia, where city officials have moved to remove symbols of the city’s Confederate past. They chant: Jews will not replace us https://www.cnn.com/2017/08/12/us/white-nationalists-tiki-torch-march-trnd/index.html To be fair some muslims are anti semitic
  10. Marjorie Taylor Greene's Holocaust comments aren't just vile. They're dangerous GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is dangerous. The Georgia congresswoman's comparison of having to wear a piece of cloth on her face while she's on the House floor to Adolf Hitler waging a genocide that resulted in the slaughter of over six million Jewish people is revolting. https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/23/opinions/marjorie-taylor-greene-dangerous-holocaust-comments-obeidallah/index.html 1/6 , the big lie , republicans electing this scum and Kevin McCarthy saying nothing is why I switched to Democrat after being a Independent till my old age. Trump was right about McConnell being a dumb sob

  12. Backed by Israeli police, Jewish settlers storm Al-Aqsa compound 23 May 2021 Dozens of Jewish settlers, flanked by heavily armed Israeli special forces, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied East Jerusalem in the early morning, hours after Palestinian worshippers were beaten and assaulted by Israeli police, according to the Islamic authority overseeing the site. Citing witnesses, Palestinian news agency WAFA said Israeli police had earlier on Sunday assaulted Palestinian worshippers who were performing dawn prayers at the mosque and “excessively beat” them in order to make way for Israeli Jewish settlers to storm the compound – Islam’s third-holiest site. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/5/23/backed-by-israeli-police-jewish-settlers-storm-al-aqsa-compound
  13. I put the blame on Iran , they destroyed Yemen , now arming Hamas.
  14. Similar to Mahomes I would think
  15. Israel needs to vote out Netanyahu and bring in a moderate. Netanyahu is too far right with religious extremists.
  16. Iran destroyed Yemen , Gaza is next by provoking Israel.
  17. What Israel did to start this was very wrong. How Hamas responded with rockets was way out of proportion . They knew Israel's response would be devastating . This is insanity on the part of Israel and Hamas.

  22. Here's what's getting more expensive (and why ) The supply chain was crushed due to covid and a strange chicken story beside plant workers getting sick. The meat processor, which sells poultry along with beef and pork, said that its chicken volumes have been low in part because the roosters it uses for breeding are not meeting expectations. https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/15/business/supply-chain-price-increases/index.html

And it was the starter pistol for the vaccine sprint to come. How long has the mRNA vaccine been around? mRNA vaccines have been studied before for flu, Zika, rabies, and cytomegalovirus (CMV).
