Artemis 1 moon launch is DELAYED: NASA
engineers discover leaks and CRACK in
$22.2BN rocket at Kennedy Space Center
and 'pause' 8.33am lift-off
Posted By: Imright, 8/29/2022 8:28:34 AM
The countdown clock for NASA's Artemis I mission is on hold at T-minus 40 minutes due two several issues that threaten the launch of the world's most powerful space rocket to the moon. One of the Space Launch System's (SLS) engines is struggling to get to the proper temperature, while engineers are assessing what appears to be a crack on the core stage of the $22 billion rocket. Derrol Nail, the NASA launch commentator, said that the line of frost on the outside of the core stage appeared to be the result of a crack in the insulating foam, not the underlying 'intertank flange.'

The approval of Donald Trump’s Truth Social on Google’s app store, which controls access to 44 percent of smartphones in the U.S., is being held up due to “content moderation concerns,” according to reports. As Google’s decision hangs in the balance, a flurry of negative media coverage about Trump’s platform is underway.
In a statement obtained from Axios, now being covered elsewhere in the media, Google said Truth Social’s approval on the Play Store was being held up due to content moderation concerns.
New York City’s greatest mayor and American patriot Rudy Giuliani was on with Steve Bannon today at the War Room. They discussed contingent elections and the corruption in the 2020 Election.
Bannon shared:
Trump put up last night that, hey, because of the Hunter situation, because of the FBI guy either getting fired or quitting because of Facebook saying the FBI told them to do it, that he won and he wants another election emediately.
President Joe Biden indicated Tuesday that “right-wing” Americans who support the Second Amendment are shooting at law enforcement.
The president detailed his frustrations with Americans who supported the right to own semi-automatic weapons during a speech on fighting crime in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
“For those brave right-wing Americans who say it’s all about keeping America independent and safe, if you want to fight against the country you need an F-15, you need something a little more than a gun,” he said and added, “No. I’m not joking.”
President Joe Biden on Tuesday called for a return to community policing while recalling trips he and his late son Beau Biden made to rough Wilmington neighborhoods in years past, adding that was the place to see the 'best basketball.'
Biden said and his son, who served as attorney general of the state, used to press police officers to give out their cell phones and engage directly with the communities they were charged with protecting.
He brought up a now demolished housing project known as 'the bucket.'
A small city in Pennsylvania will host both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump this week, a mere five days apart. Biden's visit to Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, is scheduled for Tuesday to make up for a visit that was canceled last month due to the president getting COVID-19. Biden will deliver remarks on public safety and reducing gun violence during an event at Wilkes University, according to the White House event schedule.
Trump is expected to follow over the weekend as he hosts his first midterm rally on Saturday at an arena a few miles away, according to Axios. Trump's appearance is to highlight the three Republican candidates
President Joe Biden said Tuesday while in Pennsylvania that “brave right wing Americans” who claim the Second Amendment is meant to fight back against a tyrannical government would be obliterated by the military.
Biden was speaking in Wilkes-Barre while promoting gun control and bolstering police forces across the nation. Biden pushed for a federal ban on so-called “assault weapons” and took aim at Republicans during his speech, invoking the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
“As one of the most – one of the most conservative justices in history, Justice Scalia, once wrote like, quote, ‘like most rights, the rights granted by the Second Amendment are not unlimited’,”
Christmas trees and other festive products have already surfaced at stores across the US four months ahead of the holiday - a premature start to the shopping season that comes as Americans feeling the strain of inflation look to stretch their budgets.
Shoppers were surprised this month when photos of the trees popped up on social media - causing many to question why the evergreens, commonly associated with the holidays, were being shilled in the dog days of summer.
Costco, Sam's Club, and Walmart were among the several stores to stage the seemingly premature displays in August - with hardware giant Home Depot rolling out holiday items as early as mid-July.
It’s official, maybe: Old Joe Biden has thrown his aviator sunglasses into the ring for the 2024 presidential election. The Independent reported Tuesday that “President Joe Biden has filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to establish himself as a candidate for re-election in 2024. A ‘Statement of Organization’ submitted to the FEC on Tuesday registered ‘Biden for President’ as the principal campaign committee for candidates Joseph R Biden Jr and Kamala Harris.” As with so very many things coming out of the Biden White House, however, this filing is shrouded in confusion and not nearly as straightforward as the Independent suggests.
Donald Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner had surgery a second time late last week to treat an apparent recurrence of thyroid cancer, a person close to Kushner said on Tuesday.
The news comes weeks after Kushner was spotted with wife Ivanka Trump in Rochester, Minnesota as they visited the Mayo Clinic for a check up on the status of his thyroid cancer.
A source told DailyMail.com: 'He's doing great and has been resting for the last few days but will be back at it soon.
Kushner is expected to make a full recovery.
Mikhail Gorbachev - the last leader of the USSR and the man despised by Vladimir Putin and Russian nationalists for ending the Cold War while failing to prevent the collapse of the Soviet Union - has died at the age of 91, Russian news agencies cited hospital officials as saying.
The Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow said that the former Soviet leader died 'after a serious and long illness' but gave no other details, according to the Interfax, TASS and RIA Novosti news agencies.
Gorbachev had been suffering from long term kidney problems and was on dialysis - and was confined to a clinic during the pandemic.
Paul Sperry published a string of posts today on GETTR pertaining to Peter Strzok and the Electronic Communication (EC) to formally open the investigation into President Trump and Russia — something the entire FBI knew was complete garbage at the time they opened their investigation.
According to Sperry, the highly classified document dated in early May 2017 was written by Peter Strzok at the direction of Andrew McCabe.
These people are criminals.
Paul Sperry: NEW: Sources tell me there is an EC — Electronic Communication — formally opening a counterintelligence case against Trump when he was POTUS.
As November approaches, a distinct and coordinated attempt by the media to paint Democrats as resurgent has occurred. If you pay attention to the election analysts, Dobbs has completely changed the game, making Joe Biden’s party a heavy favorite to keep the Senate and putting the House in play.
How much of that is based on anything empirical? The answer is not much. Yes, the generic ballot tightened in early August, but the Democrats quickly lost their lead, with Republicans gaining about two points from mid-August onward. Still, a closer environment doesn’t mean one that the GOP is set to lose in, and that’s become lost on far too many people.

Former lawyer to President Donald Trump, Michael Cohen, said Monday on SiriusXM’s “Mornings With Zerlina” that Trump will not run for a second term because “he does not want to go up against” Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY).
Cohen said, “I do not believe Trump is going to run. First of all, he knows that he can’t win the general election statistically, and his fragile ego will not allow him to be a two-time loser. I just want to be very clear on that.”
He continued, “Second. I believe that if, in fact, that he runs, he is not just going to get the nomination by the Republican party, by the RNC.
President Donald Trump argued Monday that he should be declared the winner of the 2020 election, citing fraud and election interference by the FBI.
The former president pointed to reports that the FBI worked to bury the story about Hunter Biden’s laptop on social media right before the 2020 election.
“This is massive FRAUD & ELECTION INTERFERENCE at a level never seen before in our Country,” Trump wrote on social media.
Trump said the FBI purposefully tried to stop him from winning the 2020 election.
He proposed two solutions.
“REMEDY: Declare the rightful winner or, and this would be the minimal solution,
Joe Biden is going to give a prime-time address to the nation Thursday evening in order to warn us that Republicans want to destroy America.
What does he mean by that? Last week, the president addressed a Democratic National Committee event in Maryland where he spelled out exactly the line of attack against Republicans he will deliver on Thursday night.
“They refuse to accept the will of the people. They embrace — political violence. They don’t believe in democracy,” he said. “This is why, in this moment, those of you who love this country — Democrats, independents, mainstream Republicans — we must be stronger, more determined, and more committed to saving America
America would have to install 30 million electronic vehicle charging ports by 2030 if half of drivers switch to EVs by the time California's ban on gas cars takes effect. If half of all vehicles sold are zero-emission by 2030, the country would need 1.2 million public chargers and 28 million private chargers by that year—which a McKinsey report claims would cost more than $35 billion over eight years.(Snip)The country has over 128,000 public EV charging outlets and at least 4,500 private charging stations—in comparison with about 150,000 gas stations—and faces a daunting task in trying to build out for its needs.
When I was in college, I read a book by George Gilder, one of the wisest thinkers of the last half-century, titled “Naked Nomads,” which had a deep impact on me. It was about single men and all the pathologies associated with them. For example, Gilder drove home the point that the biggest factor concerning violent crime was that it is overwhelmingly committed by single men. (snip) Over the course of a lifetime, however, I have come to realize that while society was right about males, it was wrong about females.
For the second night in a row, police showed up at the home of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) in the early hours of Thursday morning, responding to a fake 911 call. Once again, it appears that someone on the Left is hoping to get Greene into a situation in which she or others in her home could be killed.
Two police officers rushed to Greene’s home in Rome, Ga., in response to a call they received at 2:53 a.m. The call, according to the Rome Police Department, was about “a male possibly shooting his family members and then himself.”

The conditions are right for confession. Meghan, relaxing in a cozy chair, gazes over all that is climate-controlled and high-ceilinged and sun-dappled and perfectly marshmallowy, and hers. An invisible hand has lit a Soho House–branded rose-water candle (the founder, Nick Jones, is a friend from “long before I met Harry,” she says), and that scent fills the air, mingling with the gentle tones of a flamenco-inflected guitar floating from a speaker. Then, in the lull in conversation, Meghan turns to me and leans forward to ask in a conspiratorial hush, “Do you want to know a secret?
Lest anyone remain in doubt, Meghan Markle’s latest interview makes one thing clear: This woman has nothing to say.
She has nothing to offer, no original thoughts or guiding philosophy, no earthly reason to be taking so much money from, and so much space in, the mainstream media she so clearly reviles.
You know, just as she reviles the British royal family, even as she clings to her title and accepts money from her father-in-law, the future king, who reportedly subsidized her and Harry’s $14.5 million mansion, purchased for their privacy.
GOP Senator Lindsey Graham has warned there will be 'riots in the streets' if Donald Trump is indicted over his mishandling of classified documents.
Graham suggested there was a two-tiered legal system based along political lines in support of Joe Biden and against the former president.
'Most Republicans, including me, believe when it comes to Trump, there is no law. It's all about getting him,' Graham said to Fox News on Sunday night.
'There is a double standard when it comes to Trump. What happened with Hunter Biden is that the FBI weighed in to make sure the story didn't break before the 2020 election.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk spoke at a conference in Norway on Monday, and amid his announcement that he plans to have self-driving Teslas on the market by the end of the year, he made the admission to reporters that the transition away from fossil fuels is happening too quickly. Reuters reports that Musk told reporters that he thinks “we need to use oil and gas in the short term, because otherwise civilisation will crumble.” “One of the biggest challenges the world has ever faced is the transition to sustainable energy and to a sustainable economy,” he added. “That will take some decades to complete.”
According to the Washington Times, and further confirmed by John Solomon via contact with Chuck Grassley, the lead FBI Washington Field Office Special Agent in Charge, Tim Thibault, was removed from his position and reportedly escorted out of FBI headquarters on Friday; although his employment status is unknown.
FBI Special Agent Tim Thibault is one of the people at the center of FBI whistleblower allegations claiming the agent was politically biased and ideologically motivated in his FBI investigative duties.
Former President Donald Trump just slammed Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (again), blasting him for not stopping the Democrats’ latest spending blowout (the laughably named “Inflation Reduction Act”), which Trump imagines he could’ve done by blocking the latest lifting of the federal debt ceiling, and for generally being “a pawn for the Democrats to get whatever they want.” Ridiculous.
