World’s fastest airliner ‘Overture’
to usher in new era of supersonic travel
Posted By: Imright, 8/15/2022 7:02:26 AM
The world hasn’t seen commercial supersonic travel in nearly 20 years since the Concorde was retired in 2003, but all that is about to change with the development of a new, environmentally friendly airliner. Meet Overture – the world’s fastest airliner that was developed by Denver-based Boom Supersonic. With 26 million hours of designing and testing, Overture will run on 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as it flies at Mach 1.7 over the ocean, shuttling between 68-80 passengers up to nearly 5,000 miles.

Joe Biden looks set to face fresh questions over his fitness for office after he mixed up Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky with Russian strongman Vladimir Putin.
The 80-year-old commander-in-chief referred to Zelensky as 'Vladimir' as he poured praise on the Ukrainian military for its fightback against Moscow's troops.
It is yet another high-profile gaffe from Biden, who will be 86 at the end of his second term if re-elected, quickly corrected himself 'for being too familiar.'The president regularly uses cue cards in his public appearances because aides are worried about his regular slip-ups.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) confirmed he would support former President Donald Trump — or any other Republican presidential candidate — should he lose the 2024 primary contest.
“I am going to support the Republican nominee,” DeSantis told Wisconsin Right Now podcast when asked if he would support Trump.“At the end of the day, you go through these processes and voters make a decision and you live with it,” DeSantis added. (Tweet) With the first Republican primary contest six months away, Trump is the clear frontrunner.

Kaitlan Collins CNN Debut Bombs Hard
6 replies
Kaitlan Collins’ much-ballyhooed debut at 9 p.m. on CNN primetime—a failed and whiter-than-white supremacy line-up of liars and losers—wasn’t even the top CNN show of the night.
Despite what fake news is telling you, she came in fourth.
Collins placed fourth on … CNNLOL.
Poor Kaitlan Collins. She sold her soul to disgraced former CNN chief Jeff Zucker to become a media star, and now she’s not even the tallest midget at the CNN circus.
Keeping in mind that a debut show will likely be that program’s high-water mark in the ratings, get a load of this… Only 540,000 tuned in to see the humorless Nurse Ratched make her Big Fake News Debut.
The 'completely mad West' risks a third world war by supporting Ukraine, the former Russian president has claimed.
Dmitry Medvedev, now Deputy Chairman of Russia's Security Council and a Putin ally, said 'World War III' was 'fast approaching' and the Russian invasion of Ukraine would 'continue'.
It comes as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed new G7 security commitments to the country but warned it could not be a substitute for NATO membership. Mr Medvedev said: 'The completely mad West has failed to invent anything else. In fact, it is a dead end.
'World War III is approaching. What does all this mean for us? Everything is obvious.
The FBI on Monday asked Americans to help them protect the country by reporting criminal activity to them at 800-225-5324. (Tweet) You can imagine the responses!
The FBI is the leading criminal organization in America today!
The FBI:
** Spied on President Trump based on phony information
** Lied to the American people about spying on Trump
** Hid the Hunter laptop
** Still can’t find the Hunter laptop
** Lied about the laptop
** Lied to the American public during Trump’s impeachment knowing Trump did nothing wrong
** Sent operatives to the US Capitol on January 6
** Infiltrated the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers
The revelation that President Joe Biden frequently takes his anger out on his staff through rage-filled, profane outbursts represents the latest blow to the sweet grandpa image that the media sold to gullible voters in 2020.
But Biden’s verbally abusive behavior has a fan in his most loyal media cheerleader — The View‘s Joy Behar, who said on Tuesday’s show that she is “turned on” by his anger. Watch below: (Tweet/Video) “I like it,” Behar said. “He’s such a mild-mannered, sweet guy.”
But co-host Whoopi Goldberg disagreed. “He is not,” she replied. “He’s dropped more f-bombs than I have.”
FBI Director Christopher Wray denied that his agency is protecting President Joe Biden or the Biden family on Wednesday.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) pushed the director on the FBI’s behavior toward the Bidens during a House Judiciary Committee hearing. The hearing was the first time Wray testified on the Hill since Republicans took control of the House.Gaetz began his time for questioning by asking Wray about a WhatsApp message Hunter Biden allegedly sent to CEFC China Energy executive Henry Zhao in 2017.
President Joe Biden’s public approval rating was stuck at 40 percent in early July, close to the lowest levels of his presidency, defying White House efforts to further engage voter support.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll delivered the bad news for the president as he looks to another run for office in 2024, telling Turkish President Recep Erdogan overnight he would win re-election next year and would be working with him for the next five years, as Breitbart News reported.The three-day online poll, which asked Americans, “Do you approve or disapprove of the way Joe Biden is handling his job as president?” and ended Monday, showed a marginal decrease from his 41 percent
The corporate media kicked off the week with another outrageous story to spin President Joe Biden, the man guilty of politically persecuting his chief political opponent and potentially selling American policy out to foreign adversaries, as an “ethical” president. Biden is “reset[ting] the guardrails against … abuses of power” and “increas[ing] public trust in government,” reads a Time magazine article unironically titled, “Biden Is Resetting the Ethical Norms Trump Trampled as President.”
“President Biden is proud to have restored respect for the rule of law and will not exploit his office with convention events on the White House lawn,”
On MSNBC’s The ReidOut, host Joy Reid brought on leftist activist and turncoat former Republican Kurt Bardella to smear and mock Republicans in Congress for wanting to hold Joe Biden’s drug addict criminal son Hunter accountable for his many crimes. Proving that he has no self-awareness at all, Bardella claimed some Republicans secretly think House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and other members of the committee investigating Hunter look like “a bunch of morons.”

Vivek Ramaswamy's Soros connection
38 replies
To me, voting records are the best indicators.
I knew exactly who Mitt Romney and Ted Cruz were when they ran for president(snip)Without voting records, candidates can say anything they wish, without a single vote to prove anything. This is the political unknown where Vivek Ramaswamy comes from.(snip)
there are serious red flags that attach him to Soros.
In 2011, Ramaswamy was the beneficiary of the Soros Fellowship, which was used help cover the costs at Yale for a future law degree.
His connection to anything Soros related raises serious red flags, especially with Ramaswamy never bringing up that connection.
The Biden administration on Monday slammed the Republican-controlled House’s version of 2024 National Defense Authorization Act for requiring military personnel decisions to be based on merit and not race or gender, among other provisions.
“The Administration strongly opposes the House’s sweeping attempts…to eliminate the Department’s longstanding [Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Access] efforts and related initiatives to promote a cohesive and inclusive force,” the Biden administration said in a Statement of Administration Policy.
The House’s NDAA contains a number of Republican-authored provisions to roll back the Biden administration’s efforts to push Marxist-based Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives throughout the entire Department of Defense establishment, including the military.
VILNIUS, Lithuania — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tore into NATO leaders including President Biden on Tuesday for not extending membership to his war-torn country — introducing fresh diplomatic drama into the annual gathering of the military alliance’s leaders.

Houten released from California prison,
official says 24 replies
Leslie Van Houten, a former Charles Manson follower and convicted murderer, was released from a California prison on Tuesday, a prison spokesperson told CNN.
Van Houten was released to parole supervision, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation spokesperson Mary Xjimenez said. Van Houten will have a three-year maximum parole term with a parole discharge review occurring after one year, Xjimenez said. Van Houten, now in her 70s, was 19 when she met Manson and joined the murderous cult that came to be called the “Manson family.”
Prior to her release on Tuesday, she was serving concurrent sentences of seven years to life after she was convicted in 1971 for her role
A lot of politicians talk about free speech. But then you wonder if they genuinely even understand the concept. Particularly those on the liberal side of the aisle who seem all too cool with trying to shut down free speech on social media. The Biden team got shut down for their efforts at censorship in a landmark free speech case. But as we saw, they’re still trying to appeal that in court. They got smacked down again on Monday when the judge denied the Biden team’s motion to stay the injunction against the efforts at censorship pending the appeal.
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “All In” that the country was “still in the thick of this fight to defend American democracy” from so-called kleptocrats like former President Donald Trump.
On House Republicans investigating President Joe Biden, Raskin said, “Really what we see is a grasping at straws in attempts to find something, anything to get at Joe Biden. Why? Because it is a massive distraction from the fact that Donald Trump had one overriding purpose for being in office and one overriding purpose for coming back into office. He had a moneymaking operation. He converted the presidency into
For colleges and libraries seeking a boldfaced name for a guest lecturer, few come bigger than Sonia Sotomayor, the Supreme Court justice who rose from poverty in the Bronx to the nation’s highest court.She has benefited, too — from schools’ purchases of hundreds, sometimes thousands, of the books she has written over the years.
Sotomayor’s staff has often prodded public institutions that have hosted the justice to buy her memoir or children’s books, works that have earned her at least $3.7 million since she joined the court in 2009. Details of those events, largely out of public view, were obtained by The Associated Press through more than 100 open records
Dylan Mulvaney has fled to Peru for some much-needed solo travel and soul searching after she complained she no longer felt safe in the US.
The trans influencer, 26, has been at the center of scandals this year - having caused a storm of outrage after partnering with Bud Light in April, knocking millions off the value of the beer company.
After addressing the ordeal publicly on her TikTok last month, Mulvaney has announced she's solo traveling in South America to reconnect with herself - and filmed herself frolicking with llamas.
She told fans in a series of videos, which included posing with a llama:
Officer, Americans would like to report the Biden Administration’s FBI for the act of social media trolling. After all, that must explain why the “premier law enforcement agency” and political monkey wenchers that interfered with the 2016, 2020, and 2024 presidential elections laughably issued an appeal for Americans to come forward and report crimes.
The FBI issued a tweet that used a flowery script against a mauve pink background inviting Americans to “Speak Now.” “Justice is better than revenge,” the FBI’s tweet stated. “You may not be Superman, but you can help the #FBI protect the country. If you have information about a federal crime, speak now.”
Bank of America has been ordered to pay $250 million for illegally charging junk fees, withholding credit card rewards and opening fake accounts.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) accused the bank of harming hundreds of thousands of customers by systematically double-dipping on fees for account holders with insufficient funds.
Customers are in line for a $100 million refund - while the bank will be forced to pay $150 million in penalties to the CFPB and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).
President Joe Biden has raised eyebrows after skipping dinner with NATO leaders on Tuesday night and instead heading straight to his hotel in Lithuania.
A US official blamed the 80-year-old president's busy schedule over four days and said he's preparing for a 'big speech' on Wednesday when asked why he wasn't attending.
Biden, who has only been in Europe since Sunday night and went to the beach on Saturday, had Secretary of State Antony Blinken attend instead. The president's snub came after he told Turkish President Recep Erdogan he would win re-election - and would be working with him for the next five years.
CNN is under fire for misgendering Dylan Mulvaney as “he” and “him” in a segment about the “culture war” being waged over the transgender influencer’s partnership with Bud Light. Correspondent Ryan Young failed to use the 26-year-old influencer’s preferred pronouns in a short segment about the backlash against the beer giant that has led to plummeting sales. Young also mispronounced Mulvaney’s first name as “Dylvan” while describing the social media star to “CNN News Central” viewers Tuesday.
