So, I had an interesting thought while I was out and about. Supposedly Colonial Pipeline paid the ransom (whatever it was) to the hackers who are believed to operate w/Putin’s blessing.
What if the actual ransom was that Biden lift the sanctions on Nordstream 2?

I’ve been scrolling past your shoulder troubles, but now I’ve got a question. Was the surgery for your rotator cuff, and if so, did you previously get a COVID shot in that arm? I heard about another correlation today.

Yes I did have a Rotator Cuff surgery on my Left shoulder and NO there is no way that they are going to get anywhere near me with that vaccine.
I did have my usual annual flu shot in my right arm and as usual there were no dramas.
My right shoulder I think has taken freight at the surgery on my left and is feeling a lot better. Still giving me niggles but not much even though my right shoulder has been shouldering *(pardon the pun) the work of both shoulders for the past 3 months. It’s been 2 years since my accident with that concrete breaker set and I’m hoping by the time my left shoulder is through physio my right shoulder, which was not as bad fixes itself.

Oh, the irony. All those people pushing for a ‘green nude eel’ and really into crypto are going to find big problems.
Across America, older fossil-fuel power plants are shutting down in favor of renewable energy. But some are getting a new lease on life—to mine bitcoin. In upstate New York, an idled coal plant has been restarted, fueled by natural gas, to mine cryptocurrency. A once-struggling Montana coal plant is now scaling up to do the same.
The lofty price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has investors pouring money into power generation—and risking a backlash. Elon Musk tweeted last week that Tesla Inc. would no longer accept bitcoin as payment for vehicles over concerns about fossil-fuel use in bitcoin mining. That rocked the market; bitcoin prices are now down around 25% since last week.
The drive for power has its roots in bitcoin’s intractable mathematics: To operate securely, the cryptocurrency’s network relies on computers solving puzzles; in return the solvers get fresh bitcoin. The higher the bitcoin price, the more of these miners compete to solve the puzzles—a process that chews up electricity. The more competition, the harder the puzzles get and the more electricity is used.
A University of Cambridge index pegs the annual power consumption of bitcoin mining at around 130 terawatt-hours, more than three times higher than at the beginning of 2019. That would be more than the power consumption of Argentina.
The coal-fired Hardin Generating Station in Montana had been struggling for years. Late last year, a Nasdaq-listed miner called Marathon Digital Holdings Inc. MARA -4.57% partnered with Hardin’s owner to transform the power plant into a hub for mining bitcoin.
“It was an idle asset,” Fred Thiel, Marathon Digital’s chief executive, said in an interview. “We were able to get access to a large amount of power at a very attractive price.”
The project is in the process of scaling up, with more than 100 megawatts of power capacity planned. Marathon Digital, whose investors include BlackRock Inc. and the hedge fund Renaissance Technologies LLC, said that by tapping the Montana coal plant, its break-even costs to produce a bitcoin will fall to $4,600, 38% less than previously.
The company is aiming to produce at least 55 bitcoins daily by the first quarter of next yearup from an average of two a day in 2020.
Besides mining bitcoin, Marathon Digital said that as of March it had nearly $300 million worth of bitcoin on its balance sheet, in an effort to signal its confidence in bitcoin’s future and attract institutional investors to the stock who might want exposure to the cryptocurrency but were unable to or unwilling to invest in it directly.
BlackRock and Renaissance declined to comment.
Private-equity firm Atlas Holdings bought the idled Greenidge power station in 2014.
One of the most ambitious—and controversial—projects comes from private-equity firm Atlas Holdings. Based in Greenwich, Conn., the firm specializes in turnarounds of troubled companies. It bought the Greenidge coal-fired power station in 2014 after the plant in Dresden, N.Y. had been shut a few years earlier because it was economically unattractive to operate.
Atlas first converted the plant to natural gas from coal. Then, last year, it launched a data center for mining bitcoin using power the plant generated. The company said it currently has 19 megawatts of mining capacity and plans to raise it to 85 megawatts by the end of 2022.
Yvonne Taylor, vice president of the environmental nonprofit Seneca Lake Guardian, said air pollution and water runoff will damage a small community whose fresh air and clean water enables tourism, agriculture and fishing in the Finger Lakes.

Ghoulish Virginia Democrats Planning to Dig Up Confederate General’s Grave Without Relocation Plan
In one of the most disturbing tales to come from Richmond, Virginia’s moves to erase history, they are now planning to dig up the grave of Confederate General Ambrose Powell Hill, according to a new report.
To make the matter even more ghoulish, the city has not actually come up with a plan yet on what to do with his remains that have been in the location since 1892.
General Hill had requested he be buried under the memorial in his will
.
.
The National File reports that an effort “led by Mayor Levar Stoney and backed by Governor Ralph Northam, anti-history Democrats in Richmond, Virginia are finalizing plans to dig up the remains of Confederate General Ambrose Powell Hill, who lies beneath a towering statue dedicated in his honor and now marked for removal amidst efforts to erase all traces of the Confederacy from its former capital.”
Though the city removed nearly all of their Confederate statues during the terroristic Black Lives Matter riots last year, the general’s statue and grave had remained.
To circumvent laws against desecrating graves, the Democrats are reportedly designating the grave a threat to traffic safety, giving them the power to remove it.
According to the National File, under the removal plans, “workers will remove the bronze statue of the General before destroying its stone pedestal and removing the sarcophagus containing his remains. Details of what the city plans to do with Hill’s remains are unclear, and the project is estimated to carry a taxpayer-funded price tag of over $33,000.”

@ eaglesoars:
that’s the part about bitcoin that is escaping me. I heard John Saylor describe bitcoin as a way to store energy over a long period of time. And as an assets and not a currency. Assets are taxed currency isn’t.
If a coin is PoW(proof of work) it is a mining operation. Bitcoiners think they can escape catastrophes because bitcoin is decentralized and is not taxed globally.
I’m still trying to understand its value.
@ eaglesoars:
If the market force for bitcoin is to have computers run algorithms that need coal plants to produce enough power to churn cpu’s then it seems to me that is something that will break down without market regulation? bitcoin is a scare resource. It has a ceiling on how many can be produced. The race is to grab as many as one can before the limit is reached. It’s uncharted territory.
darkwords wrote:
It will break down regardless. The idea of decentralization has its merits. The implementation leaves something to be desired. But as I understand it, I think ANYTHING that uses blockchain tech is going to still require the computational engine that is mining.
@ darkwords:
So add crypto/blockchain requirements AND electric vehicles to the electric grid demand and try to do it with renewables. If it wouldn’t be such a massive clusterfuck, I’d like to see them try.

@ darkwords:
I have to look at this mining for coins and the blockchain thing again.
As I understood it years ago the mining was to find new blocks to add to the chain and the reward for adding a new block was in coins. Fair enough….
Any transactions of that coin needed verification and when verified the transaction was recorded in a block on the chain.
the mining of new blocks and the verification of transactions are two different processes.
When Bitcoin reaches the maximum available then there are no more coins to earn by finding new blocks directly. The only way to add new blocks is to…..
I don’t know.

Today was magical transport day. I put a load in the washer, when it was done I put my clothes in the dryer.

A source within the Biden State Department wishing to remain anonymous has shared with Human Events News a document that indicates that all U.S. “Diplomatic and Consular posts” are being encouraged to display shows of support for Black Lives Matter on Tuesday, May 25, the one-year anniversary of George Floyd’s death. The memo reads in part, “The Department supports the use of the term ‘Black Lives Matter’ in messaging content, speeches, and other diplomatic engagements with foreign audiences to advance racial equity and access to justice on May 25 and beyond (italics added) We encourage posts to focus on the need to eliminate systemic racism and its continued impact.”
The memo, which is in part a woke statement on social justice, part an apology for U.S. actions, and part an endorsement of all BLM materials, expressly encourages the display of the BLM flag or banner at U.S. facilities (except on the actual flagpole that holds the American flag).

The argument for why it should stay, as articulated by some in Gov today, is as follows: the vaccines don’t totally stop people catching + spreading Covid, so contact with a positive case needs precaution
“There is still a risk of getting the virus and spreading it on” said one.

A Luzerne County Council majority voted Tuesday to ask the county District Attorney’s Office to investigate the May 18 primary election.
Councilman Walter Griffith proposed the DA election investigation request, citing an on-screen ballot mislabeling error and other problems that caused many voters to be “disenfranchised and concerned about the integrity of the election process.”

Something we don’t focus on much but Jocko Willink had a podcast about the Armenian genocide. He and Andy Stumpf also podcasted with Holly McKay who spent time with the Yazidi. And Megyn Kelly had on Lara Logan this last week with her story about mob assault in Egypt.
All three of these stories display the inhuman evolution towards women sprouting from Islam in the last 100 years. It can only be described as barbaric and evil. And that evil is not much different from Hamas. And with a bit of a stretch its something progressives approve of.

Ivermectin
Michael Capuzzo, a New York Times best-selling author , has just published an article titled “The Drug That Cracked Covid”. The 15-page article chronicles the gargantuan struggle being waged by frontline doctors on all continents to get ivermectin approved as a Covid-19 treatment, as well as the tireless efforts by reporters, media outlets and social media companies to thwart them.
Because of ivermectin, Capuzzo says, there are “hundreds of thousands, actually millions, of people around the world, from Uttar Pradesh in India to Peru to Brazil, who are living and not dying.” Yet media outlets have done all they can to “debunk” the notion that ivermectin may serve as an effective, easily accessible and affordable treatment for Covid-19. They have parroted the arguments laid out by health regulators around the world that there just isn’t enough evidence to justify its use.
For his part, Capuzzo, as a reporter, “saw with [his] own eyes the other side [of the story]” that has gone unreported, of the many patients in the US whose lives have been saved by ivermectin and of five of the doctors that have led the battle to save lives around the world, Paul Marik, Umberto Meduri, José Iglesias, Pierre Kory and Joe Varon. These are all highly decorated doctors. Through their leadership of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care (FLCCC) Alliance, they have already enhanced our treatment of Covid-19 by discovering and promoting the use of Corticoid steroids against the virus. But their calls for ivermectin to also be used have met with a wall of resistance from healthcare regulators and a wall of silence from media outlets.
“I really wish the world could see both sides,” Capuzzo laments. But unfortunately most reporters are not interested in telling the other side of the story. Even if they were, their publishers would probably refuse to publish it.

Report: Biden Plans Retroactive Capital Gains Tax Hike
https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2021/05/27/report-biden-plans-retroactive-capital-gains-tax-hike/
The effective date for the capital-gains tax rate increase would be tied to Mr. Biden’s announcement of the tax increase as part of his American Families Plan, which includes an expanded child tax credit and funding for preschool and community college. He detailed the plan April 28, and the budget will be released Friday,” Richard Rubin of the Journal writes.

Republican Sen. Josh Hawley and Democrat Sen. Bernie Sanders have joined forces to condemn a $10 billion “bailout” for Blue Origin, a space flight company founded by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, hidden in a bill to rebuff China.

The other day she noted that this whole mask/vax thing was the same dynamic used to usher in the Holocaust and she got shut down for COMPARING it to the holocaust. Kevin McCarthy was one of the ones who slammed her for it. She came right back and said he spent more time criticizing Republicans than he did going after the jihad squad. I forget why she got kicked off her committees but she said it was their mistake. She’d started and run successful companies and it wasn’t a good idea to leave her with time on her hands. Since then she’s paired up w/Matt Gaetz to hold America First rallies. She’s extremely articulate and she won’t shut up. Also, she’s absolutely right.

The heirs would have to sell or shut down the business because they can’t pay the taxes and those business are gone forever. Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, we should be supporting them not killing them”. She doesn’t talk about margins or step-ups, she just lays it out. Like this

I should say one more thing about Marjorie Taylor Greene. Now that Elise Stefanik is #3, the speculation is that she’ll put MTG in her sights. I don’t know if that’s true, but if it happens, it’s just going to divide the GOP even more. If Elise is smart, she’ll co-opt MTG like Pelosi did the jihad squad.

The Fall of Saint Anthony Fauci
In his AIDS memoir, Body Counts, Sean Strub points out that Fauci used his insistence on bulletproof studies to justify his mulish slowness in response to the AIDS crisis, including his fateful hesitancy to authorize therapeutic treatments for the diseases that were killing those who suffered from AIDS. Gay men turned to “buyers’ clubs” to get the drugs that their own desperate research indicated they needed. As Strub notes, by 1989, when the government approved a prophylaxis for pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP), which affects people with weakened immune systems such as those with HIV…
Others involved in the task force remarked on Fauci’s ability to outleak the leakiest White House in living memory. Those who disagreed with Fauci even in private would find themselves the subject of unflattering coverage almost immediately in the Washington Post.
.
.
But the other shoe is yet to drop. Former New York Times science writer Nicholas Wade, who did as much as anyone to mainstream the lab-leak theory of COVID, went on to point out another thing that only “Pizzagaters” were saying 15 months ago: Dr. Anthony Fauci had been personally involved in lobbying to exempt gain-of-function research into coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology from funding restrictions.
.
.
Is Navarro angry over how Fauci was lauded? You bet. It wouldn’t be the first time that an outlandish and demonized theory about COVID-19 turned out to be the likeliest story. But in any event, America no longer needs a saint of the Science. The Resistance turned on and discarded every previous hero, whether it was Michael Cohen, Michael Avenatti, or even Robert Mueller. Dr. Fauci broke his own rule. He got political, and now he’s about to get into trouble.
