GENOCIDE in the U.S. Continues: 3,848 DEATHS 118,902 Injuries Following COVID Injections – Children Now being Reported as Dying Also
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 6 hours ago
The mass murder of Americans through the experimental COVID injections continues, as the CDC is now reporting that 3,848 people have died and 118,902 adverse reactions have now been logged into their Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). Many believe there is solid evidence that the CDC is holding back much of the data, and that the number of deaths and injuries reported is much higher. This is in addition to the fact that many deaths and injuries following the injections are not even reported, because the propaganda put out by the U.S. Government and reinforced through...

Charlie Crist is the mirror image of Nikki Haley (and both wear heels).

Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *North Korea, Asia* Although western sources have not given the new tank a specific designation yet, several conclusions can be supposed from the tank’s brief parade appearance. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Clearly, North Korea would like observers to think that their new tank incorporates the latest in composite armor, though this is difficult to confirm. One of the conclusions that can be drawn about the tank’s armor protection is the rear turret and rear hull’s slat-style armor which is intended to minimize damage caused by high explosive anti-tank (HEAT...

(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari.) *W*e all know about the presidential honeymoon period. Depending on who you talk to, it lasts from anywhere between the first 100 days (an artificial framework of the mainstream media, as day 100 in a new presidency is just another day at the office to those who work in it) to the first six months. It's the period in which new presidents waft that new president smell all over the Beltway as long as the ambergris of political capital lasts, that rarest, most valuable and highly perishable kind of political capital: That of h...
$10,000 Stimulus Check Or More? Why Some Americans Got Super Paid
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Coronavirus Stimulus, United States* [image: Stimulus Check] There are various qualifications and conditions that could push the number higher. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Of those checks sent out, be aware that many U.S. taxpayers have already received via direct deposit or traditional mail in the amounts of $5,600, $7,000, $8,400, or even $11,200. It appears that $1,400 is the magic coronavirus stimulus check dollar amount. But if one takes the time to do his or her homework, that monetary figure could end up being quite a bit more.

While modern military submarines can operate at greater depths than are survivable or practical for human divers, not every mission requires ...
"Acceptance..."
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 6 hours ago
"Acceptance is a crucial step forward for those who prefer the idea of living this life over simply existing within it. Accept all that you've said and what you've done, because you cannot change your past. Accept the idea of the unknown, because the future is the unknown waiting patiently to reveal itself. Accept the person you have become thus far in your journey, because you are the only person who will be there with you when you finish it. Do all of this so that you may never find yourself having to accept regret that haunts you at two a.m., leaving you sweaty and broken hearted...

* "Think how much childhood has changed, based on our collective misperception of stranger danger.

The XF-108 Interceptor Would Have Been Phenomenal If It Had Ever Made it Into the Sky

*Caleb Larson* *Interceptor Jet, * Its primary mission - to intercept Soviet strategic bombers that were en route to the United States—with American cities in their crosshairs. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* Thanks partly to the XF-108’s wide hypothetical range, North American Aviation proposed the XF-108 as a fighter complement to their XB-70 Valkyrie strategic nuclear bomber project. In this role, the XF-108 would have used its good range and phenomenal speed to keep Soviet interceptors at bay, away from America’s nuclear-armed bombers during a war. The aerospace firm Nor...

A New $3,600 'Stimulus' Check Plan Is Here (With One Insane Catch)
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *New Stimulus Check, * [image: Stimulus Payment Tax Credit] Keep in mind that there could potentially be future tax implications for the new $3,000 or $3,600 child tax credit--what many are calling the 'fourth stimulus check'--that will start hitting the bank accounts of millions of eligible parents beginning in July. For those individuals who have filed their tax returns and are still wondering when they will get their hands on their refunds, know that they are not alone. Keep in mind that the Internal Revenue Service generally disburses most refunds within ...
More Stimulus Checks Are Coming (But With One Giant Catch)
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Child Tax Credit, Americas* [image: Biden Stimulus Tax Credit] Biden has not shown support for another general round of stimulus checks, but he does want to keep the expanded child tax credit around until 2025. *Key point: *The child tax credit has been very popular and Biden hopes to use it to reduce child poverty. Here is what might happen with the credit and also any future stimulus plans. For the first time as president of the United States, Joe Biden addressed a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night. And while many were hoping to hear word that a ...
Why Nothing Can Touch the F-22 Raptor Stealth Fighter
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *F-22, * The F-22 Raptor has proven to be an aircraft that can engage an enemy but has speed on its side as well. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The aircraft is powered by two Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 turbofan engines with afterburners and two-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles, and each provides 35,000 pounds of thrust. The F-22 can roar into action and get out just as quickly, and it can certainly hold its own against the opposition. Combining stealth, supercruise, maneuverability, and integrated avionics, coupled with improved supportability, the Lockh...
What’s the Truth Behind Russia’s MiG-41 Super Stealth Fighter?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *MiG-41, * The goal of the PAK DP program is to develop a replacement for the MiG-31, which entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1980, and later was upgraded as the MiG-31BM. In the technology world, the term "vaporware" refers to a product that is not yet available and remains largely in the concept stage – it also often is something that fails to materialize and never makes it to market. Russia's fifth-generation plus or even sixth generation Mikoyan MiG-41 stealth interceptor, which is being developed under the PAK DP program, certainly seems to fall int...
Three Stimulus Checks? One College Student Got Really Lucky (Or Not?)
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Stimulus Check, * [image: Stimulus Payments] One college student, still considered a dependent, somehow received three stimulus payments to date. Apparently, he has already deposited those checks but has not spent a dime of them. What should he or the parents do? It’s no secret that coronavirus stimulus checks have been a lifesaver for millions of financially struggling Americans amid the ongoing pandemic. But also know that sometimes, the Internal Revenue Service has mistakenly sent out stimulus funds to those who don’t deserve them. Case in point: One colle...
Even Faster: The SR-91 Aurora Would Have Been Mach 5 Spy Plane
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *military, Americas* [image: SR-91] The secret program name was only revealed by accident, but the idea appears to have been to build an even faster successor to the SR-71. *Key point: *The Aurora was a black program that no one knew about. Even today little has been revealed for certain. In the 1980s an idea was conceived by military planners to develop a hypersonic spy plane that could reach Mach 5+, making it truly the fastest manned aircraft ever to fly. While there have been reported sightings of the prototypes, the SR-91 Aurora, if it even existed, likely nev...
Is Biden Pushing Russia and China Closer Together?
Mark Episkopos, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Mark Episkopos* *Foreign Policy, World* [image: Foreign Policy] Pushing against both China and Russia because of their authoritarian systems is a recipe for disaster because it would bring those two powers into a formal alliance against America. As the Biden administration sounds a global clarion call against autocracy, Beijing and Moscow signal their willingness to build a united front against the west. Nearing his 100th day in office, President Joe Biden delivered an address to a joint session of Congress. While only a small portion of his address touched directly on foreign ...
SR-72 Darkstar Spy Plane: A Real Mach 6 Monster?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *SR-72, * [image: SR-72] The SR-72 will build upon the famous and incredibly fast SR-71 spy plane, which was used during the Cold War. *Key point: *The SR-71 was vital to collecting intelligence on enemy activities and movement. How might the SR-72 help fill the same role today? It was over twenty years ago the Lockheed SR-71 "Blackbird" was retired by the United States Air Force, and while surveillance satellites can provide that eye in the sky for intelligence gathering there is still a need for such high flying, ultra-fast aircraft. Such a platform would complem...

From the British Journal of Sports Medicine Physical inactivity is associated with a higher risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes: a study in 48,440 adult patients. Fresh air, sunshine, take your vitamins, get some exercise. Not sure if we needed peer reviewed studies to know this. But these days some people sure seem to.
War for Humanity Sitrep - Battlefield UK - Massive Demonstration in London goes completely Unreported in MZM PLUS: Police attack Demonstrators in London Park
greencrow, Greencrow As The Crow Flies - 10 hours ago
*Million person March in London, UK* *https://twitter.com/MartinDaubney/status/1386272582178066433* Goodmorning readers. Before I start today's postings I want to take a moment or two to state what we're doing here with this blog now. *Greencrow As The Crow Flies* has always been a truth blog. For years, I parsed the 9/11 atrocity and the War on Afghanistan and then the trumped up wars on the "seven countries in five years"---aka *Middle East Wars for Israel*. Just over a year ago now, however, the focus of this blog shifted dramatically as I realized, to my absolute horror.....
