Excellent video, it just about sums up most of my concerns about this topic. The fact that Elon Musk, the richest man who also owns one of the largest social media platforms, in the world is supporting conspiracy theories is troubling. Another Murdoch comes to mind.

Or possibly just as good, a video of the San Francisco DA's latest press release from PBS. PBS is the most balanced, trusted and respected and independent News Agency is US.

Yet the definition of a conspiracy theorist is "a person who proposes or believes in a conspiracy theory". Perhaps some critical thinking would be appropriate here, like waiting for the facts or looking for other supporting evidence from reliable sources.

I have an alert on the forum as the topic is of interest to me. If we all put an ignore on you bar one, your unwelcome posts will still trigger an alert if only from the response of the odd one out. I suggest you just take the hint. Self-restraint can be a wonderful thing especially for others.

Acapulco (TV Series 2021– ) - IMDb Series 2 of Acapulco has arrived. Not a bad light comedy. The Watcher (TV Mini Series 2022) - IMDb I found The Watcher a worthwhile watch! Thanks for the recommendation. The White Lotus (TV Series 2021–2022) - IMDb The second series of The White Lotus is only a shadow of its former series. Different hotel and location, maybe only one of the original characters. Not so funny.

Yet, a Jan. 6th rioter dragged a D.C. officer into the mob. The officer suffered a heart attack and a traumatic brain injury. Another officer had two stokes after being sprayed with bear spray and subsequently died. Four other officers committed suicide.

Joe Blogs' take on the war not about the economy this time but recent events. Particularly interesting is Putin's latest Q&A propaganda where he states that: Russia was achieving its goals in the Special Military Operation in Ukraine, and The West is denying the sovereignty of countries and nations, their distinctiveness and uniqueness and disregarding the interests of other states.

Your "observation, common sense and independent research" obviously missed Neighbourhood Watch where groups of civil-minded citizens welcomely interfere and help protect their neighbours and their property against criminals like your Putin. Don't you have organisations like that in Russia?

Yet, the PBS is regarded as the most independent, unaffiliated, non-government, non-profit, most-trusted, unbiased News Service in the US.

When i was waiting for the presser on TV, I switched to a popular conservative News channel. Without any real information the host was already trying to deflect any culpability from the perpetrator and possible fomenters of violence and let no political opportunity be wasted. He subtly suggested that this sort of crime is commonplace in Democratic cities, the injury must not be serious as the husband was able to call police, the entry door was insecure glass and that there could be blame directed at Pelosi and the Capitol police for poor security. On the other hand, the liberal media are calling for Trump to do a public statement to condemn this type of violence.

Musk must be very magnanimous in allowing the Mafioso Don back on Twitter after their recent feud. Obviously, it's the business potential of Trump's 75 million supporters, But will Trump accept the offer from someone and an organisation, that Trump feels have both insulted him? With Trump going back to Twitter, it might also mean the certain death knell of Truth Social which is already struggling to survive. Trump's previous ban from Twitter was its main raison d'être.

Some interesting news of people who have fell foul of Putin. evidently for some the usual falling from windows or novichok have become outdated. Earlier this month: "Judge Sergey Maslov had investigated family members of Putin’s cronies". This guy is reported to have strangely died in the Kerch Bridge explosion and may possibly have had the explosives in his very large Cadillac.

Ticket to Paradise (2022) - IMDb A feel-good romantic comedy starring Julia Roberts and George Clooney. Set in Bali but really filmed in Queensland Australia. A good enjoyable movie for all the family.

I watched the first two episodes last night. Amazing sci-fi thriller, that hit the ground running, just hope it keeps the action going. I look forward to the next episode.

Only those who don't wish too much for sleep will find it easily. Embrace the sleeplessness as a blessing and use the time for that project you never had time for or do some studying, maybe learn Thai language online. Try to exercise or walk everyday together with a little meditation. Give up drinking excessive alcohol, sometimes it can have a negative effect and avoid sleep medication except for maybe melatonin. Set up a routine of going to bed same time every night. and try listening to one of those rain or ocean videos from Youtube. Avoid too much TV or screen time close to bedtime. Read a book instead. Periods of sleeplessness are a normal part of life, don't worry too much about it.

The subpoena was issued by Jan 6th committee yesterday and Trump's legal team have responded. They slammed the committee, I suggest both hypocritically and paradoxically, for making the subpoena public and accused the committee of "flouting norms" with the subpoena. “

Seems as though Iran is not only waging a proxy war against Ukraine. They actually have Iranian troops on the ground in Ukraine assisting the Russians launch their drones against Ukraine cities. Iran sent troops to Crimea to help Russia use Iranian-made drones, Biden admin officials say “We assess that Iranian military personnel were on the ground in Crimea and assisted Russia in these operations,” said White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby.

The Durham enquiry turned up no evidence to support Trump lies that the FBI or other agencies conspired to de-rail Trump's presidency. Obviously, because the Trump Campaign did conspire with the Russians, QED! Jury acquits an analyst of lying to the FBI over the 'Steele dossier' "Despite hopes by Trump supporters that the prosecutor would uncover a sweeping conspiracy within the FBI and other agencies to derail his candidacy, and then his presidency, the investigation over the course of more than three years failed to produce evidence that met those expectations. The sole conviction — an FBI agent admitted altering an email related to the surveillance of a former Trump aide — was for conduct uncovered not by Durham but by the Justice Department's inspector general, and the two cases that Durham took to trials ended in across-the-board acquittals".
