As referenced above, there are some constitutional problems with the CAADCA, which is being challenged in court by industry group NetChoice. In her order granting the injunction, US District Court Judge Beth Labson Freeman said the law is “not only unlikely to materially alleviate the harm of insufficient data and privacy protections for children, but actually likely to exacerbate the problem by inducing covered businesses to require consumers, including children, to divulge additional personal information.” //

In a press release announcing the decision, NetChoice noted that the law would impact all ages, not just children:

The court noted that the AADC’s Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) requirement likely violates the First Amendment by compelling speech and commandeering private companies to act as roving censors. This would have forced online services to restrict access to protected speech and information for all ages.

The unsealed report highlighted critical vulnerabilities in Georgia’s election infrastructure and the ongoing challenges to public confidence ahead of the 2024 election.

Thousands of pro-Hamas protesters marched in Manhattan on Monday to demonstrate against Israeli military action against terrorist group Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Video footage circulating on social media shows the protesters walking through the street waving flags representing terrorist entities while shouting antisemitic slogans. This development comes amid ongoing demonstrations against the Jewish state for its effort to eliminate Hamas after it carried out a surprise attack on October 7, slaughtering civilians.

Original Star Wars fans are not getting it. The WHOLE POINT of "The Acolyte" was to destroy the original fan base' interest and memory-hole the original stories. The people producing this garbage never liked Star Wars in the first place, they want to replace it with something the original fan base will ignore. It is is simply impossible for me to believe that these people thought original fans would like "The Acolyte" at all. They know Disney will never give up making content with the IP, no matter how terrible it is.

To add insult to injury they did interviews where they giggled like immature middle school girls at the "rumors" about the problems with the show, which they admitted to not being problems in their eyes. If Disney doesn't get it by now, they never will.

The wokies are actively trying to destroy franchises that appeal to boys and young men - Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, the MCU, etc. Why? To feminize the culture. Get rid of science fiction and superheroes that promote masculinity and appeal to the masculine half of the movie-going public.

BTW, film critic and former studio executive Paul Chato referred to that series as "The Ejacolyte."

The Swiss government said on Wednesday it plans to overturn a ban on building new power plants to strengthen local energy supply at a time of increased geopolitical tension.

Energy Minister Albert Roesti said the government would submit a proposal to amend nuclear legislation by the end of 2024 so it can be debated in parliament next year.

"Over the long term, new nuclear power plants are one possible way of making our supply more secure in a geopolitically uncertain time," Roesti told a press conference.

Failure to retain the option could be seen as a betrayal by future generations, Roesti argued.

Construction is underway on a new nuclear power plant in Tennessee – the first officially approved fourth-generation nuclear reactor in the U.S.

Kairos Power has begun building the Hermes Low-Power Demonstration Reactor in Oak Ridge, the first Gen IV reactor approved for construction by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The Hermes reactor utilizes a fluoride salt-cooled, high-temperature reactor design, differing from conventional light-water reactors. //

The reactor is set to employ TRISO-coated particle fuel and high-purity fluoride salt coolant, known as FLiBe, a mixture of lithium fluoride and beryllium fluoride. This design is intended to produce affordable nuclear heat rather than electricity, showcasing the potential of a factory-built small modular reactor to revolutionize nuclear construction.

"Kairos will combine the molten salt coolant... with a novel form of nuclear fuel called TRISO, where the fuel is in tiny (<1 mm) particles coated in layers of graphite (both as a moderator and to give the fuel strength and structure)," said Peel.

Thousands met up at Union Square in Manhattan and marched to Washington Square Park.

They had flares and smoke bombs as some assaulted cops who tried to halt the march.

They also carried Hezbollah, Iranian, Palestinian, and Syrian flags. I’m shocked no one brought a Hamas or ISIS flag.

He went on to remind the world that the Hamas murderers executed the hostages in the midst of negotiation talks, and pressure needs to be put on them, not Israel:

"These murderers executed 6 of our hostages. They shot them in the back of the head. That's what's changed. And now after this, we're asked to show seriousness. We're asked to make concessions.What message does this send Hamas? It says, kill more hostages, murder more hostages. You'll get more concessions. The pressure internationally must be directed at these killers, at Hamas, not at Israel. We say yes. They say no all the time, but they also murdered these people. And now we need maximum pressure on Hamas."

I had completely forgotten about the “I’ve studied the maps” line from Kamala Harris demanding Israel not go into Rafah - which is where these latest murdered hostages were found.

She has been dangerously wrong about every aspect of this conflict.

8:54 PM · Sep 1, 2024 //

"What the Biden-Harris administration should have done from the beginning is not pressure Israel to restrain its response, but let Israel win from the very outset," Cotton said, saying Biden and Harris put more pressure on Israel than on Hamas, Iran, or the other Iranian proxies. They've tried to hamstring them at every turn. A lot of the problem is that Hamas has known they can keep holding out because of such actions and comments by the Biden-Harris team. You can't keep handing them leverage and hope like that. But that's what Biden and Harris did.

It's worth remembering that in March Kamala Harris pressured Israel to not enter Rafah after she "studied the maps"!
Could more hostages, some of them Americans, have been saved if the USA hadn't blocked Israel?

5:46 AM · Sep 2, 2024 //

Even now, their first response to the murders isn't "we need to wipe out Hamas," it's that we have to "focus on a deal." So Hamas knows they can ask for anything at this point and probably get it, at least from Biden and Harris.

Netanyahu has had more wounds in actual combat than everyone in the Obama Three Cabinet Combined. Getting lectured by a phony like Biden/Obama must make his blood boil.

Republicans and Trump voters alike are looking forward to watching Donald Trump rip apart the world's top word salad chef, Kamala Harris, but let's take a lesson from Crassus of the Triumvirate, and not let our superior strength convince us to ignore sound tactics.

Yeah, that's that deep knowledge you subscribe to these VIP articles for.

Yes, Trump has the experience, the accomplishments, and the ability to say complete sentences that make sense, but what Harris has is the media and rabid activists ready to make the debate less about the facts and the country and more about scoring socio-political points.

In other words, Harris doesn't have to win on facts. All she has to do is create two or three "girl boss" clips that the press can latch onto and push those moments over and over again until the entire debate became about these short moments that show her as a no-nonsense go-getter.

How do I know this is going to happen. A few things. //

However, this won't mean that he won't fall into the trap the Harris team and the media set for him. They will work to make it happen. They need that moment. If and when it does happen, Trump should call it out for what it is. Make it clear that this is the media's sad attempt to paint Harris as something she's not, a strong and capable person, and that they have to fall back on this kind of cheap nonsense in order to sell her.

He should remind the American people if this is the kind of thing she and the media focus on, then they fundamentally don't understand the trouble America is in, and that trouble is something that Harris a direct hand in causing. She wants to make this about presenting herself as presidential, when she's had four years to do that already. Trump already did that, and he wants to get America back on track and away from the failures that Harris represents. //

The Ronald Reagan moment: There you go again!

Israel did what it had to do if it didn’t want to see repeats of this almost inhuman perversion—it went on the offensive, declared war, and took on the dark forces of Hamas. Civilians have died in the process, and that’s a sad reality of most warfare, but remember that none of them would have died had Hamas not savagely murdered over 1,200 Israelis. Remember also that many of the civilian casualties in Gaza—notoriously overstated by the utterly mendacious Gaza Health Ministry—would be alive today if the terrorist group didn’t use them as human shields and hide their military operations in hospitals and schools.

And yet, did we see worldwide protests decrying the sick actions of Hamas? Did campuses in the United States erupt in outrage over the barbaric carnage inflicted upon innocent Israelis (and some Americans)? Did thousands congregate In Manhattan’s Union Square Park, as they did Monday, to demand that Hamas embrace peace, lay down their arms, and release the remaining hostages—at least, the ones who they hadn’t murdered in cold blood?

No.

Instead, what we’ve seen is an almost universal response against Israel and its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. How dare they prosecute a war against the forces that assaulted them so viciously? //

What is Netanyahu supposed to do? As we reported, Hamas executed six hostages, including Israeli American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, on Saturday, just as IDF forces were closing in and coming to rescue them.

Even more disgustingly, the terror group took videos of their victims before killing them, and are now threatening to send them to the families to further torture their souls. //

What kind of agreement could possibly be reached with people like this? //

The Jews may as well have tried to strike a "deal" with Hitler. I don’t think there’s any question how that would have turned out! The thing that disgusts me is how many Israeli "Quislings" Netanyahu has to deal with, pressing him to make a deal at any price.

The price to return the hostages is the survival of Hamas. That price will cost the future deaths of untold Israeli. It must not be paid. Hamas has publicly stated they intend to repeat the atrocities of 10/7 again and again until Israel is destroyed. To their credit, some of the hostage families realize that Hamas is an existential threat to Israel and despite their grief, stand with Netanyahu. Perhaps not intentionally, but the "Bring Them Home" (at any price) crowd are acting as Hamas collaborators.🤦‍♂️

Various Jewish "councils" in cities in Poland and other countries (including Germany) actually tried negotiating with the SS local leadership. They turned over lists of Jews, encouraged Jews to submit to whatever demands from the SS, arranged for "governing" Ghettos and eventually did nothing more than make the SS "job" to get the Jews to the camps easier and give their people the illusion of survival for a little longer. //

The question isn't "how" but "why". Why would one negotiate with evil?

I have to believe that so many Christians and Jews choose to believe they can negotiate with the Muslims because the other alternatives, subjugation or war, are simply inconceivable. Far too many of these kind-hearted empty heads want so badly to believe that the barbaric descendants of a thieving, murdering, pedophile want the same things in the same manner as those of the West.

They are wrong.

We share almost nothing in common. Nothing. What little we may share is skewed by their religion and worldview. We also have no need of negotiating with them. Were it not for oil they'd yet be riding camels and slitting each other's throats in the desert.

Well, we can't negotiate and I won't be subjugated. That doesn't leave many options. So be it.

I don't get it either Bob. Clearly a significant portion of our population has given itself over to evil. Absolutely shocking to see people supporting a completely dedicated to evil terrorist organization.

These are the same people who demand unlimited abortion up to the moment of birth. The same people who want to groom children in elementary schools in deviant sexual lifestyles. Who want pornography in their small children's classrooms. These are the same people who push transgenders and men in women's sports. These same people support open borders. They support defunding the police and no cash bail.

I don't know how we reached such a place in America, but I suspect it has a lot to do with rejection of Christianity and Christian principles. Our education system has been weaponized against Christian principles and our wonderful western heritage is despised.

These are today's Democrats. To save America, they must be defeated.

It's actually that last part I find especially funny. Some people questioned whether people really use wired earbuds anymore. But if they were working and you were really on the phone with someone, why would you then need to put the phone to your ear? If she's actually talking on the phone at the top of the steps, why is the phone away from her mouth? It's like she was doubling down on the "I am on the phone" message to the media, sorry I'm just too busy to take any questions. //

Here's the larger question surrounding this. Are we really going to elect a president based on nothing but manufactured "vibes?" That has become the entire strategy of the Harris campaign, bolstered by a press that is eager to spread her propaganda. Every interaction is painfully staged and focus-grouped. From the fake laughter to the constantly changed accents, nothing about Kamala Harris is authentic. It's as if she were created in a lab by political consultants who haven't met a real person in decades. //

As much as I hate to admit it, there is real power being wielded by the likes of CNN and The New York Times, with one study showing that as much as 84 percent of coverage of Harris has been positive. Remember, these news outlets don't have to fool 25 percent of the electorate. They just have to pull the wool over the eyes of a few percentage points to swing the election.

Shock video: Bad actors attempt to smash their way into a @DCFGuns store in Colorado Springs, Colo., but the retailer's multi-layered security thwarts them.
10:22 PM · Sep 2, 2024

“They used minors to do it, and frankly, it's pretty clever,” Oltmann said. “They hit five stores in less than two weeks.”

If they are arrested, the minors are sent to the juvenile system and emerge with clean records upon their 18th birthday, he said.

Oltmann said the modus operandi is to have two stolen cars driven by adults, with underage confederates. The thieves use one car to smash through the windows or entryways to the store. Then, the minors rush in and grab whatever they can until they make their escape in the second car.

As of publication, Oltmann said he still has not spoken with law enforcement leadership about the two incidents.

“They hit the West store, and here's the bad part: it took 73 minutes for a police officer to roll up on scene from a robbery from a gun store,” he said.

The show host said he believes the people who hit his stores were connected to the Venezuelan gangs who took over apartment buildings in Aurora.

GEN Jack Keene was in Fox this AM....stated that Ukraine is now occupying as much/more of Russia than Russia does Ukraine.

He then brought up "bargaining chip". //

The Russian reaction so far seems to have been a reluctance to react. There was probably a feeling that this incursion was just like the small-scale penetrations into Belgorod Oblast, particularly because the Russians hadn't received any backchannel warning from Jake Sullivan's National Security Council. When the scope became more apparent, some reaction was necessary, but the Russians were unwilling to commit the troops it would have taken to stop the Ukrainians because that would mean an end to their offensive in Donetsk. Finally, the political pressure to do something has kicked in, and we see 30,000 troops heading there. //

Gen Keene after …Ukraine….at 4:05 qualified his statement with “….in the last several months.”
The omitted qualification gives a completely different meaning to the statement.

Construction has started on the new facility in iconic Oak Ridge, Tennessee. //

According to Interesting Engineering, the new Hermes reactor will be the first one built in the United States in 50 years that won’t be cooled by light water. Instead, it will use a system of molten fluoride salt, and a TRISO (tri-structural isotropic particle) fuel pebble bed design will power the generator.

Molten fluoride salts have “excellent chemical stability and tremendous capacity for transferring heat,” per the report, meaning it stays cooler and dissipates heat much faster than the light water that has been used for so long in American reactors.

The fuel bed consists of hundreds of millimeter-sized particles of uranium encased in multiple layers of special ceramic, which allows each individual piece of fuel to have its own containment and pressure vessel, per Ultra Safe Nuclear. The ceramic casing is stronger and more resilient than the typical zirconium alloy, meaning it can withstand higher temperatures and neutron bombardment past the failure point of other types of fuel. //

To be classified as Generation IV, a system must meet, or at least have the ability to meet, the following criteria:

(1) it is much more fuel-efficient than current plants;

(2) it is designed in such a way that severe accidents are not possible, that is, plant failure or an external event (such as an earthquake) should not result in radioactive material release to the outside world;

[3] the fuel cycle is designed in such a way that uranium and plutonium are never separated (“diverged”) but only present in a mix and with other elements. This makes it more difficult to create nuclear weapons. //

The Swiss government said on Wednesday it plans to overturn a ban on building new power plants to strengthen local energy supply at a time of increased geopolitical tension.

The barbarians known as Hamas are not only killing hostages, but they are now taunting the families of those hostages by releasing videos of the slain taken prior to their deaths. The terror organization is also promising more to come.

Israel recently went into Rafah and recovered the bodies of several hostages. If you'll recall, the Democrats were furious that Israel was planning to launch strikes into the region. As it turns out, Israel was right to focus on the area and the Democrats were wrong to push the Biden administration to withhold armaments.

Biden's response to the situation has been nothing short of incompetent, demanding that Benjamin Netanyahu do more to get to an agreement with Hamas.

But demanding Israel cut a deal with Hamas only rewards Hamas for its behavior, as Netanyahu rightly noted.
