Swedish probe finds signs of ‘detonations’
at Nord Stream leak sites
Posted By: Ribicon, 10/6/2022 6:17:07 PM
A Swedish investigation of leaks in two Russian natural gas pipelines that run under the Baltic Sea to Europe found evidence that “detonations” caused extensive damage, strengthening suspicions of “serious sabotage.” Sweden’s Security Service said Thursday that it had seized evidence of what caused the ruptures in Nord Stream 1 and 2 last week but did not provide details. Authorities had noted when the leaks in the pipelines off of Sweden and Denmark were first disclosed that explosions were recorded in the area. Denmark and Sweden have suspected that explosives were used to sabotage the pipelines that carry natural gas to Germany after high levels of methane were detected.

A 14-year-old gang member with 18 busts already under his belt is suspected in three shootings that occurred just days apart in The Bronx, police said Friday. The kid made off on a scooter each time with an accomplice, police said—till he was finally busted for two of the crimes Wednesday. The young suspect—whose arrests date back to age 10 or 11—allegedly opened fire into a Dunkin’ Donuts from the back of a scooter Sept. 19 just after 2:30 p.m., said NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig said.(Snip)The targets were part of the “1300” or “OKB” gang, which is a subsection
Washington–The Defense Department is shelling out $21 million on what critics argue seems to be the BIden military’s most pressing issue–renaming bases that offend the left. In 90 days, nine Army bases long named for Confederate generals will “immediately” begin swapping to more palatable-to-the-woke-crowd labels such as “Fort Liberty”–in a move that will cost more than $21 million. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Thursday ordered the Army to begin renaming nine bases selected for the change by an independent commission after a congressionally mandated 90-day wait period expires. “I fully support the efforts and recommendations of the Naming Commission on this important

Americans battered by soaring inflation since President Biden took office have effectively suffered the steepest pay cut in a quarter-century, according to data released by the Federal Reserve. Researchers for the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas published new findings that calculated “real wages”—the effective income of workers when adjusted for inflation. “We find that a majority of employed workers’ real (inflation-adjusted) wages have failed to keep up with inflation in the past year,” the researchers said. “For these workers, the median decline in real wages is a little more than 8.5%.” “Taken together, these outcomes appear to be the most severe faced by employed workers over the
Two high-profile GOP senators warned Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Thursday to prepare to face impeachment unless he begins a quick about-face and figures out how to secure the southern border. Sens. Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz said Mr. Mayorkas has shown a “gross dereliction of duty” in his management of immigration and said if it’s not fixed it “could provide grounds for impeachment.”(Snip)They said Mr. Mayorkas must quickly provide a plan for what he will do to achieve “operational control” of the border, saying it’s both an imperative and a requirement of the law.

Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin has expressed approval for building a partial fence along her country’s border with Russia in order to maintain better control of who comes into the country.
Prime Minister Marin, who recently made headlines across the world for her party lifestyle, stated Monday that she would support building a partial fence along the border with Russia after the Finnish Border Guard proposed creating fencing at key points along the border.(Snip)Earlier this year, Charly Salonius-Pasternak, a senior researcher at the Finnish Institute of International Affairs, wanted that Russia may engage in so-called hybrid warfare against Finland by sending illegal migrants across the border
Six masked vandals smashed up a coffee shop about 3 a.m. Wednesday in apparent retaliation for a planned “Coffee with a Cop” event that had drawn angry online comments, according to the proprietor.
Alerted to the damage by neighbors immediately afterward, Bison Coffeehouse owner Loretta Guzman said she arrived at her Cully neighborhood cafe to find patrol cars parked outside and the shattered storefront’s plate glass windows still crackling.
“I’m just kind of numb right now,” she said Wednesday afternoon. “It was planned. It wasn’t just random.” Guzman said police officials had asked her to host a two-hour event for community members interested in talking to officers. Guzman agreed.
Watch your mouth, Joe! President Biden stunned viewers of a Hurricane Ian recovery briefing Wednesday by saying into a hot mic that “no one f—s with a Biden” shortly after he told devastated residents of southwest Florida that he can commiserate due to a minor house fire that destroyed an “awful lot” of his own home almost 20 years ago. The 79-year-old president made the unexpected vulgar remark about family loyalty to Fort Myers Mayor Ray Murphy after taking several questions from reporters. “You were raised the same way I was,” Biden told the mayor. “I was, I was,” Murphy said, as Biden continued speaking.
The 10 highest paid Amtrak executives raked in six-figure bonuses in 2021–in one instance nearly doubling a senior-level executive’s salary–despite the rail network struggling with low ridership and plummeting revenues. The top-earning employees received “earned incentive” bonuses of more than $200,000 each—more than 50% of their base salaries–according to figures obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request and a statement from an Amtrak spokesperson.
The bonuses enraged the Transportation Workers Union that represents more than 1,000 Amtrak employees, which noted in a statement that the American taxpayer is, in part, footing the bill for the six-figure rewards.
A pro-Trump legal group is taking the FBI to court in an effort to reveal its communications with tech giants to censor news about Hunter Biden’s laptop and the Biden family’s alleged dealings with Chinese and Ukrainian officials. America First Legal filed its lawsuit Tuesday in Washington, accusing the feds of stonewalling its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for the communications.
The group is seeking records of communications between the FBI and Facebook between Oct. 1, 2020, to Nov. 15, 2020. “The evidence is that the FBI and Big Tech, including Facebook, colluded to interfere with the 2020 Presidential election first by falsely and maliciously labeling the laptop
The top executive of an election logistics software company that has clashed with groups alleging voter fraud was arrested Tuesday over the alleged theft of Los Angeles County poll workers’ personally identifiable information, which investigators said was illegally stored in China. Konnech Corp. CEO Eugene Yu was arrested in Michigan and held on suspicion of stealing data from hundreds of poll workers. His company had a contract with Los Angeles County to maintain the data and only provide access to U.S. citizens and permanent residents, but Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon’s office said the company stored the information on servers in China. Konnech‘s software is used to manage
President Biden complained that the White House press corps is the 'only press in the world' that shouts questions at their nation's leader during formal events. A task force meeting on abortion access began open press, where reporters were allowed in to observe the conversations, but at one point a White House staffer announced the meeting would switch to closed press. As reporters were ushered out of the room they burst into questions aimed at the president, many of them centered on a report that Georgia Republican Senate candidate paid for an abortion of an ex-girlfriend in 2009. But louder than the din of the reporters' inquiries was

Some Chicago Marathon runners are feeling a little blue heading into this weekend’s race.
One of the biggest events of the year for the sport followed Boston and London with the creation of a nonbinary division for runners who don’t identify as male or female. The lack of hype around the new inclusive division left some of those who identify as such with a bad taste in their mouths. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, there was no major announcement to coincide with the division. "Personally, it feels hurtful because it feels performative, or brushed under the rug, because it really is a big deal," Cal Calamia told the newspaper
New York City Mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency Friday in response to the continued arrival of illegal migrants from southern states.
More than 17,000 migrants have been bused to the city since the spring, a small fraction of the migrant encounters at the border over that timeframe. Fox News cameras at the Port Authority transportation terminal filmed eight buses arriving Friday, after nine arrived Thursday.
Adams said that one in five people in the city's shelter system is a migrant, which is creating the "crisis." "This is a humanitarian crisis that started with violence and instability in South America and is being accelerated by American political dynamics,"
A viral video from a Hamilton daycare has devastated parents and horrified the community.
WCBI News in Columbus said that numerous concerned parents reached out to them overnight Wednesday. Because it does involve kids, the local media were not showing the video or faces at this time but luckily we obtained a copy of the disgusting video!

An 18-year-old Texas man visiting his girlfriend in labor went on a rampage at a hospital, where he assaulted several staff members and two babies who turned blue when he choked them, police said.

Judicial Watch has nailed it yet again, suing HHS to acquire a treasure trove of documents that reveal the world’s most exhaustive, heavily funded and wide-ranging propaganda campaign to try to convince the oblivious masses to be injected with an experimental mRNA concoction that isn’t even a “vaccine.”
President Joe Biden kicked off a speech on the economy Friday with a classic brain-freeze moment.
“Let me start off with two words — Made in America,” he said, using three words in front of a sign that read “Made in America.”
“Made in America,” he repeated, without correcting his mistake. “That’s not hyperbole, I’m not joking about that as you know.”
The president spoke at the Volvo Group Powertrain Operations, Hagerstown, Maryland.
It’s not the first time that Biden has struggled with the basics of the English language.

Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard on Thursday's edition of Jesse Watters' FOX News show reacted to news that the FBI sees a chargeable case against Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden.
FMR. REP. TULSI GABBARD: Leaks coming from law enforcement agencies are not good. We often see them happening in the lead-up to elections regardless of which party they are seeking to influence. Our law enforcement entities need to be apolitical so that we can faith in the rule of law. But what we are seeing here is pointing to something much bigger than what Hunter Biden ends up actually being charged with or indicted with or not.
