California: Children, Parents and Gavin Newsom’s Maniac Transgender Agenda
July 16th, 2024On this news, Musk announced he is pulling both SpaceX and X Out of California:
Elon Musk is moving both SpaceX and X headquarters out of California and into Texas over the liberal state’s new gender identity laws.
The 52-year-old billionaire announced the major move on Tuesday, saying Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signing of a law that bans California school districts from notifying parents if their child is transgender was ‘the final straw.’
‘Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California to Starbase, Texas,’ he wrote on X.
‘I did make it clear to Gov. Newsom about a year ago that laws of this nature would force families and companies to leave California to protect their children.’
Musk later added that the social media site will also be moving its headquarters from San Francisco to Austin, saying he has ‘had enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building.’

Head of Secret Service: Agents Weren’t On Roof Because It Was Sloped
July 16th, 2024— cryptogon (@cryptogon) July 17, 2024
Via: Daily Mail:
Embattled Secret Service head Kimberly Cheatle has revealed the fateful and bizarre reason why her agency failed to put an agent on the roof gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks used to carry out an assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
Cheatle, who is facing calls to resign over the massive security failure, said Secret Service officials planning security for Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania considered the warehouse 147 yards away from where Trump spoke to be a risky position for stationing an agent.
…
‘That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof,’ she told ABC News in an interview Tuesday.
‘And so, you know, the decision was made to secure the building, from inside.’
Counter Sniper Team Was Inside Building Where Trump Shooter Climbed on Roof and Opened Fire, Spotted 26 Minutes Before Shooting
July 16th, 2024Via: New York Post:
A local police counter-sniper team was stationed inside the building where attempted assassin Thomas Crooks climbed on the roof and fired on Donald Trump, law enforcement sources told The Post.
The building — the AGR International Inc. factory in Butler, Pennsylvania — was being used by local police as a “watch post” for snipers to scan for threats as the former president spoke onstage only 130 yards away, according to sources.
Cops were inside, but not on the roof during the shooting, sources said.
Crooks was able to scale the building unchallenged before firing off eight shots with an AR-style assault rifle, grazing Trump in the ear, killing one Trump supporter and wounding two others.
The revelation comes as local outlet WPXI reported the Crooks was spotted on the building 26 minutes before he opened fire — with one cop from the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit even taking a photo of the gunman before the shooting.

This is from WPXI-TV, Alleged Trump shooter spotted by law enforcement nearly 30 minutes before shots fired, sources say:
Channel 11?s Nicole Ford confirmed that Beaver County’s ESU team had eight members at the rally, including snipers and spotters. According to Ford’s sources, one of them noticed a suspicious man on a roof near the rally at 5:45 p.m., called it in and took a picture of the person. We have learned from our sources the person in that picture is Thomas Crooks. We’re told it’s not clear if Crooks had a gun with him at that point.
According to multiple sources, a law enforcement officer had also previously seen Crooks on the ground and called him in as a suspicious person with a picture prior to 5:45 p.m. Our sources tell us an officer checked the grounds for Crooks at that point, but did not see him where the first picture was taken.
26 minutes after the second picture of Crooks was taken by law enforcement and the information called in, shots were fired from the roof of the American Glass Research building. Seconds later, a Secret Service sniper returned fire and killed Crooks.
I Asked Perplexity: “Approximately how loud, in decibels, would a standard velocity 5.56mm bullet be in flight one centimeter from the bullet and 130 meters downrange from the rifle?”
July 16th, 2024Is Trump deaf in his right ear?
If anyone with a relevant background would like to perform a sanity check on perplexity.ai’s math below, I’d appreciate it.
Perplexity prompt: “Approximately how loud, in decibels, would a standard velocity 5.56mm bullet be in flight one centimeter from the bullet and 130 meters downrange from the rifle?”
Based on the search results provided, we can estimate the noise level of a standard velocity 5.56mm bullet in flight one centimeter from the bullet and 130 meters downrange from the rifle.
The noise level of a bullet in flight is primarily due to the ballistic crack, which is the shock wave generated by a projectile traveling faster than the speed of sound. This shock wave cannot be reduced by a suppressor and is separate from the muzzle blast noise[1].
According to the measurements provided in one of the search results, the bullet flight noise for a .223 caliber round (which is essentially the same as 5.56mm) was measured at 148.5 dB when suppressed and 148.1 dB when unsuppressed[1]. These measurements were taken 55 yards (about 50 meters) downrange from the muzzle and 1 meter to the side of the bullet flight path.
Given that the query asks about the noise level at 130 meters downrange and only 1 centimeter from the bullet, we can make an educated estimate:
1. The distance downrange (130 meters vs 50 meters) likely won’t significantly affect the noise level, as the ballistic crack follows the bullet.
2. The proximity to the bullet (1 centimeter vs 1 meter) would likely increase the perceived noise level, as sound intensity decreases with distance.
Considering these factors, we can estimate that the noise level of a standard velocity 5.56mm bullet in flight, one centimeter from the bullet and 130 meters downrange from the rifle, would be approximately 150-155 dB.
It’s important to note that this level of noise is extremely loud and potentially dangerous. Exposure to noise levels above 140 dB can cause immediate and permanent hearing damage[2]. Therefore, appropriate hearing protection is crucial when in close proximity to gunfire or bullet flight paths.

Follow up: Would a sound source that was 150 to 155dB one centimeter from one’s ear result in deafness?
Based on the information provided in the search results, exposure to sound levels of 150-155 dB at such close proximity (one centimeter from the ear) would almost certainly result in immediate and severe hearing damage, likely including deafness.
Here’s why:
1. Sound levels above 140 dB can cause immediate and permanent damage to hearing[1][2]. At 150-155 dB, the intensity is even higher and more dangerous.
2. The proximity of just one centimeter from the ear would amplify the damaging effects, as sound intensity increases dramatically at very close distances.
3. Exposure to 150 dB of noise can cause immediate and permanent damage to the delicate structures of the inner ear, resulting in hearing loss and tinnitus[1].
4. At levels around 150 dB, the sound is powerful enough to rupture eardrums[3]. This kind of physical damage would likely lead to severe hearing impairment or deafness.
5. For context, a jet engine during takeoff is around 140 dB, and even that is considered loud enough to cause immediate and permanent damage[2][3]. The levels in question (150-155 dB) are significantly higher than this.
6. The threshold for pain is typically around 120-130 dB, and sounds at 150 dB and above are considered in the “painful and dangerous” category, requiring hearing protection or complete avoidance[4].
Given these factors, exposure to 150-155 dB of sound just one centimeter from the ear would almost certainly result in severe hearing damage, including a high likelihood of deafness. The damage would be immediate and irreversible, potentially causing complete hearing loss in the exposed ear.
It’s crucial to note that such extreme noise levels should always be avoided, and proper hearing protection should be used in any situation where high noise levels are present.

‘Every Message Possible’: Hackers Leak Data from Nearly 10,000 Internal Disney Slack Channels
July 16th, 2024Via: Daily Dot:
A hacking group claims to have leaked internal data from the entertainment giant Disney, including Slack messages and attachments from the company’s employees.
The group, known as NullBulge, announced the alleged hack in a post to their website last week and made the vast trove of data available for download.
“1.1TiB of data. almost 10,000 channels, every message and file possible, dumped,” the hackers wrote. “Unreleased projects, raw images and code, some logins, links to internal api/web pages, and more! Have fun sifting through it, there is a lot there.”

Trump Announces Ohio Sen JD Vance as His 2024 Running Mate
July 15th, 2024Update: Brief Commentary
When this announcement came out, I didn’t know anything about JD Vance at all. I looked briefly and saw that he’s closely associated with Thiel and Vance’s wife was a Gates Cambridge Scholar.
Thiel is the special sauce behind Vance’s rise (financial backing) and his making amends with Trump. Vance used to be very strongly anti-Trump, but with Thiel’s puppet strings and good offices working the backchannel with the Trump camp…
Here we are.
Vance will be sold to the masses through his book, Hillbilly Elegy and the corresponding movie.
However, Vance is Thiel’s creature. No doubt about it. That means, of course, that Vance is Palantir’s creature.
If you want to try to look for a brightside, Vance appears to be two degrees of separation from the Epstein industrial complex, instead of just one, like Trump and Thiel. Whether or not being owned by Thiel is any different than being owned by Epstein, I don’t know. Maybe it’s, six of one, half a dozen of the other, as my dad used to say.
Keep in mind, I only read about Vance for about fifteen minutes before I wrote this commentary. Like everything with elites (and their creatures), I’m sure it gets worse the deeper one goes.

Via: Fox:
With an eye toward the future of a Republican Party dominated by former President Trump and his legions of MAGA supporters, Trump has named 39-year-old Sen. JD Vance of Ohio as his running mate on the GOP’S 2024 national ticket.
The former president, who made his greatly anticipated and high-stakes announcement on Monday as the Republican National Convention kicked off in swing-state Wisconsin’s largest city, will now share the ticket with one of his top supporters in the Senate and a one-time Trump critic who has transformed into a leading America First disciple.
Vance, a former venture capitalist and the author of the bestselling memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy,” before running for elective office, was one of a handful of Republicans considered top running mate contenders. That group included North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida and Tim Scott of South Carolina.
