September 1st, 2021Via: Atlas Abscura:
Nearly 60 years after the PM-2A was installed and the ML-1 project abandoned, the U.S. military is exploring portable land-based nuclear reactors again.
In May 2021, the Pentagon requested $60 million for Project Pele. Its goal: Design and build, within five years, a small, truck-mounted portable nuclear reactor that could be flown to remote locations and war zones. It would be able to be powered up and down for transport within a few days.
Montana Becomes First U.S. State to Ban Vaccine Requirements for Employees
August 31st, 2021Via: Fortune:
While many large companies across the U.S. have announced that COVID-19 vaccines will be required for their employees to return to work in-person, there is one state where such requirements are banned: Montana.
Under a new law passed by the state’s Republican-controlled Legislature earlier this year, requiring vaccines as a condition for employment is deemed “discrimination” and a violation of the state’s human rights laws.
Montana is the only state in the U.S. with a law like this for private employers, said Hemi Tewarson, executive director of the National Academy for State Health Policy.
Taliban Seize Control of Kabul Airport as Last U.S. Troops Have Left Afghanistan
August 31st, 2021Is Biden Finished?
I mostly stopped listening to audio of U.S. presidents speaking during the Clinton days, but I’ve forced myself to listen to bits and pieces of Biden’s ramblings, more out of morbid curiosity than anything else.
While cringing and holding my head in my hands, here’s what came to me: Biden is nothing more than a corrupt and servile puppet who is close to losing his battle with Alzheimer’s. The lights have gone out. Enjoy a sippy cup of apple juice, Joe. Take your pills.
Why was Biden was put in there? I assumed that it was because he was totally compromised and could be easily manipulated as a result. Then again, I assume that about all presidents. Biden really does seem like more of a liability than anything else. Who knows what he might blurt out between awkward stammers and fits of bewilderment.
Was the plan to make Kamala Harris the president from the start?

After Firlit told the judge she did not receive the vaccine because of adverse reactions she has had to other vaccines, he ordered her to be stripped of her parental right to visit her son until she has been vaccinated.
Israel Warns COVID ‘Green Pass’ Will Expire If Residents Don’t Get Third Jab
August 30th, 2021Mmm hmm.
Via: ZeroHedge:
After being confronted with the fact that widespread vaccination isn’t enough to stop COVID (just look at Israel’s case numbers), public health authorities in the tiny Mediterranean country have decided that the best solution is to double-down on the jabs by defying the WHO and demanding all citizens must get a third jab. Talk about moving the goalposts…
Satire: CIA Begrudgingly Impressed By How Well They Trained Future Taliban Members In 1980s
August 30th, 2021Via: The Onion:
Reluctantly acknowledging a faint stir of pride at the success of their tutelage, the CIA admitted Tuesday to being begrudgingly impressed by how well they trained future Taliban members throughout the 1980s. “Damn, we really have to give ourselves a little bit of a pat on the back for showing these sons of bitches the ropes,” said CIA director William Burns, admitting that the intelligence agency deserved some credit for providing Mujahideen militants with all the tools they needed to rapidly rise through the ranks of the Taliban. “This was a classic ‘teach a man to fish and he’ll fish for life’ situation, and our hard work back then obviously really paid dividends. Of course, these scenes from Afghanistan have been horrifying, but you can’t help but be a little wowed by how these bastards took our idea and just completely ran with it.” Burns added that this situation had made a nice change of pace after dealing with the disappointment of those goddamn Contra pushovers.
