Olympic Gymnast Alleges NBC Buried Her Story About Abuse in Competitive Gymnastics - Christine Rousselle

Olympic Gymnast Alleges NBC Buried Her Story About Abuse in Competitive Gymnastics - Christine Rousselle:
"...Multiple reports from inside NBC claim that the network went out of their way to kill or impede stories about Weinstein's despicable conduct.

Now, former Olympic gymnast Dominique Moceanu is making similar claims about the network, saying that when her memoir, Off Balance was published in 2012, she was told that NBC attempted to "bury" the stories she wrote about in her book.
...In a series, of tweets, Moceanu said that she has been told from producers that NBC "told us not to go near your story" and refused to cover any of the claims made in her book regarding USA Gymnastics. NBC owns the rights to the Olympics.

...If these claims are true, something is terribly wrong at NBC..."

NASA Confirms Falling Sea Levels For Two Years Amidst Media Blackout | Zero Hedge

NASA Confirms Falling Sea Levels For Two Years Amidst Media Blackout | Zero Hedge
"Most media outlets cannot be bothered to report something that dramatically deflates their narrative.
So it goes without saying that when NASA confirmed that ocean levels have actually been falling for the past few years, the media would be more than silent.

As the global warming narrative quickly unravels, and leftists scramble to throw accusations at those who dare question the false data, the media brushes facts under the rug. Amidst revelations of scientific fraud, data alteration and faked “hockey stick” data models, the fake news media remains suspiciously silent over the fact that NASA now confirms ocean levels have been falling for nearly two years.

On a NASA page intended to spread climate alarmism (https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/sea-level/), NASA’s own data reveal that worldwide ocean levels have been falling for nearly two years, dropping from a variation of roughly 87.5mm to below 85mm.

This data clearly contradicts the false narrative of rapid, never-ending rising ocean levels that flood continents and drown cities.The narrative is climate alarmists key element of the climate change fear mongering fiction that’s used to scare gullible youth into making Al Gore rich..."

Fmr. Obama Senior Adviser Calls for Gun Confiscation 'Similar to the One Australia Instituted'

Fmr. Obama Senior Adviser Calls for Gun Confiscation 'Similar to the One Australia Instituted':

"Dan Pfeiffer, a former senior adviser to President Barack Obama, called for the United States to implement an Australian-style gun confiscation program in an article published Wednesday.

Obama previously said in 2016 that the United States should consider following the example of Australia, which enacted a "mandatory buy-back" of guns and created a gun registry. Pfeiffer echoed that view in Wednesday's article, published on Crooked, a media site founded by three former Obama staffers."

The Army is lowering some standards to meet higher recruiting targets

WASHINGTON — Faced with increasing demand for new soldiers, the Army has reached deeper into the pool of marginally qualified recruits, offered hundreds of millions in bonuses and relaxed the process for granting waivers for marijuana use.
...So long as the Army, the largest of the armed services, continues to tinker at the margins by accepting a small number of recruits with lower qualifications, the Army won’t encounter the problems it did in the mid-2000s, said Beth Asch, an expert on military recruiting at the non-profit RAND Corp.
...Smarter soldiers, RAND has found historically, are better fighters.
One study showed that tank crew members were less effective in destroying the enemy than recruits who had scored higher on military tests..."

"The Mandalay Bay security guard who confronted the Las Vegas shooter moments before he began firing on a country music concert went missing Thursday night as he was set to break his silence with a string of TV interviews.

Jesus Campos, who was shot by gunman Stephen Paddock, disappeared moments before he was set to go on camera. He reportedly bolted, and “as of early Friday morning, it wasn't immediately clear where he was,” Fox News reported."

"Private, flexible PPOs for self-sufficient, self-employed people are vanishing by design. The social-engineered future -- healthy, full-paying consumers being herded into government-run Obamacare exchanges and severely regulated regional HMOs -- is a bipartisan big government health bureaucracy's dream come true.

These choice-wreckers had the arrogant audacity to denigrate our pre-Obamacare plans as "substandard" (Obama), "crappy" (MSNBC big mouth Ed Schultz) and "junk policies" (Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa). When I first called attention to the cancellation notice tsunami in 2013, liberal Mother Jones magazine sneered that the phenomenon was "phony." And they're still denying the Obamacare death spiral. Liberal Vox Media recently called the crisis "a lie.""

Evidence Suggests Updated Timeline Towards Yellowstone's Supervolcano Eruption - Slashdot

Evidence Suggests Updated Timeline Towards Yellowstone's Supervolcano Eruption - Slashdot: "Camel Pilot writes:
Geologist have been aware of fresh magma moving in the Yellowstone's super volcano system.

Previously this was thought to precede an eruption by thousands of years.
Recent evidence by Hannah Shamloo, a graduate student at Arizona State University, demonstrates that perhaps the timeline from the underground basin filling to eruption is more on the scale of decades.
A super volcano eruption has the power to alter life's story on this earth and even destroy all life on a continent.
In light of this, it seems like a good time to invest some effort and resources into finding ways to prepare, delay or deflect the potential threat.
The research was presented at the International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI) 2017 conference in Portland, Oregon."

Op-Ed: With fewer ships and more missions, the Navy is forced to keep ships at sea longer in the Pacific | American Military News

Op-Ed: With fewer ships and more missions, the Navy is forced to keep ships at sea longer in the Pacific | American Military News:
"...With fewer ships, the Navy has been forced to curtail maintenance and training for Japan-based ships for years to meet operational commitments in the region.

Op-Ed: With fewer ships and more missions, the Navy is forced to keep ships at sea longer in the Pacific Featured

As a result, ships like the USS Fitzgerald and USS John S. McCain went to sea with expired training certifications and operated on waivers granted through the chain-of-command, as many ships of the Japan-based 7th Fleet had done for years.
...And this is a large part of not only the Navy’s problem, but the American military’s problem, as well.
The current U.S. Navy fleet is 20 percent percent smaller than it was two decades earlier, yet the ships are being deployed at the same rate, and often for longer periods.
These continuous deployments are especially true for forward based warships like the those assigned to the 7th Fleet.
...As it stands now, the only way to reduce the stress on the Navy is to reduce its operational commitments.
However, doing so in an era of increased North Korean tensions, Chinese naval expansion and a steadily assertive Russia is not an optimal choice..."

Frank Gaffney: Trump Must Not Fall for ‘Bait and Switch’ of Decertifying Iran Nuclear Deal Without Killing It

Frank Gaffney: Trump Must Not Fall for ‘Bait and Switch’ of Decertifying Iran Nuclear Deal Without Killing It:

"“The Iranians are pursuing nuclear weapons as we speak, no question about it, and they’re engaged in a whole host of other activities – some of which are made possible by the $150 billion Barack Obama transferred to them, and that’s not even the money that he gave them for hostages. It’s funding now terrorism, it’s funding now ballistic missile programs, it’s funding now regional instability, and on and on,” he charged.

Gaffney said President Trump’s campaign criticism of the Iran nuclear deal as “the worst deal ever” has been validated and expressed confidence the president still wishes to decertify the deal and withdraw from it."

Behold Our Betters - Kurt Schlichter

Image result for government leadership fail

" To be a normal American is to constantly be scolded, to be lectured, to be treated as a morally bankrupt simpleton in need of the guidance and direction provided by an urban elite ruling class notable for its empty academic credentials, its track record of incompetence, and its idolization of people who erotically abuse the foliage.
If we are to have betters, is it so wrong for us to demand that they actually be better?
Superiors should be distinguished by their superiority – if you presume to take charge shouldn’t you demonstrate tactical, technical, and moral mastery?
So what has our ruling class mastered lately?
What is the skill set that sets the smart set apart?
Are they our betters because of the degrees they hang on the walls of their over-priced, open-floor plan townhouses?
...Where are the elite’s achievements?
Our betters have been running things and yet they are the ones crying loudest about how awful things are. It’s another scam, of course.
Things are awful, but not for them
...That action is to direct more money and power to the ruling class.
That’s the answer to every policy question.
Yeah, they’ve failed, but if you reward them, well, then they’ll totally start succeeding..."
