100 Soviet-Era "Backpack" Sized Nuclear Weapons Could Be Missing
*Caleb Larson* *Security, * Were there — or are there — nukes on the loose in the United States? Hopefully not. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *A “suitcase nuke” is essentially a nuclear device so small, it could be transported in a backpack or in a person’s luggage. Tactical nuclear weapons — compacts, small-yield atomic bombs that are not necessarily designed to be rained down on cities from bomber aircraft, nor delivered via Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles, but could be an artillery shell, a nuclear torpedo, landmine, or other small and easily transportable devices.... more »
"The Nation Is Falling Into the Abyss Between Wall Street and Main Street"
*"The Nation Is Falling Into the Abyss* * Between Wall Street and Main Street"* by Charles Hugh Smith "I know this runs counter to every dominant narrative, but a vaccine doesn't really matter, opening up doesn't really matter, and the size of the "free money" stimulus checks doesn't matter. What matters is that the nation is falling into the abyss that's opened between Wall Street and Main Street, and nothing will stave off the collapse of the social order other than a fundamental re-ordering of the way we create and distribute money and political power, as money buys political inf... more »

"More to Come..."
*"More to Come..."* By Jeff Thomas "Years ago, when visiting the US, I’d often watch late night television. Just prior to each interval, in order to ensure that viewers would sit through the adverts, the show would run a panel that said, “More to Come.” This, of course, was effective, as the viewer would be anticipating that the best part of the program would come in a later segment and would be more likely to continue watching. Today, we're looking at the reverse of that situation. The program we’re watching is The Decline and Fall of the American Empire and those who recognize t... more »

Glock 47: Why You Most Likely Will Never Own One

This gives CPB agents access to both G19 and G17-level performance, but without the need to expend department resources on separate G17 components. Not only is the CBP saving on up-front parts costs, but there are even more long-term savings to be captured by not having to operate two different maintenance and repair channels.
