arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
Right now the instrument of declaring an insurrection has been signed as of this past weekend. The potential now exists for heavy civil unrest coming from paid communist agents acting under the names of Antifa and BLM. This can lead to disruption of the communication system. Meantime the tech crowd is massively censoring folks. The worst, if it occurs should last several days. Inasmuch as all forms of legal redress to massive voter fraud has been rebuffed, the military has taken over governance applying military law. This means military tribunals for all traitors.

Earth Isn't the Only Ocean World in the Solar System
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
It is pretty clear that planet formation also includes the production of water as well. I will go a lot further than that. Most of that water is subsumed in the planet's crust in most cases. Without an atmosphere, any surface water is disassociated into free hydrogen which may well escape. That explains the smaller inner planets. Yet not so as we get further out. As I have also posted, my own Cloud Cosmology suggests that all our planets are in fact hollow shells built around a central 'star' which produces a steady stream of elements to form up the crust and this crust nat...

Someone finally looked at the meta statistics and the problems we had with DTP translated into continuing programs in Asia and Africa. Whatever evidence we have had for some vaccines, we find that jumping to a new vaccine protocol is not safe at all. Worse than any of this, why have we not run a placebo based vaccine program folded into the real deal in order to confirm safety?

Scientists use microwave oven to turn coal into graphite
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
This is really unusual. It also looks to be cost effective as well. We are looking at the high volume production of nano sized graphite dust from finely ground coal. i suspect fine size detetrmines the graphite particle size. Inasmuch as graphite and coked coal is extremely difficult to crush, this happens to be a viable route to produce small particle size ahead of actual conversion to graphite. Thus, we may have a useful bulk source of industrial graphite. imagine a titanian graphite concrete structure. stuff like this becomes imaginable at least. *Scientists use micro...

England has gone into a tough lockdown to halt spiralling COVID-19 hospitalisations and relieve pressure on its health system.

Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 1 day ago
On January 6, 2021, thousands of Trump supporters rallied in Washington, DC at the White House with President Trump and then marched to the Capitol as the presidential election was being certified. Some of them entered the Capitol illegally, either with the assistance of police, as the police passively allowed them to enter or by breaking in through windows and doors. Some of them sought out and threatened lawmakers and ransacked offices. I speak with longtime DC organizer, Brian Becker, who is the national coordinator for the ANSWER Coalition about the events of January 6, the ri...

"A Stock Market Crash Of 80% This Year?"
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 1 day ago
*"A Stock Market Crash Of 80% This Year?"* by Epic Economist "The entire U.S. economy is crumbling, but stock markets are still recording a frenetic bull run led by investors' euphoria surrounding tech stocks. However, massively overvalued tech stock prices are forming a bubble much like the dot-com bubble of the 1990s, and we all know how things ended up back then. Several experts are alerting to the unsustainability of the markets, especially since these extraordinary prices are backed on delusional projections for the upcoming performance of our struggling economy. A stock marke...

Will Joe Biden Close Guantanamo Bay?
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 1 day ago
*WNU Editor:* President-elect Joe Biden committed to the closing of Guantanamo Bay 10 years ago. But will he actually close it? Much of the Democrat base wants to close it, and with Democrats in control of the US government there is really no excuse for Biden to close it. My money is that it will be closed in the coming months, and some of the detainees at this prison will be brought to the U.S.. What happens after that will be court cases, law suits, and the very real possibility that some of these terrorists will be released.
