Scientists Stumble Upon 7,000-Year-Old Preserved Landscape

/3 Comments/in , /by

Researchers uncovered a preserved ancient landscape beneath the Adriatic Sea near the submerged city of Soline, dating back 7,000 years, Daily Mail reported.

Archaeologists discovered remnants of Soline, a city built by the ancient Hvar culture on an artificial landmass, submerged off the coast of present-day Croatia. The city, crafted around 12,000 BC and later engulfed by rising sea levels following the last Ice Age, includes a network of rivers and estuaries, according to the Daily Mail. This discovery is part of a well-preserved underwater landscape.

Geo-archaeologist Dr. Simon Fitch led the team and they utilized cutting-edge underwater 3D seismic sensors to map this forgotten world. The initial findings reveal a vibrant, dynamic environment, likely bustling with ancient human activity, now hidden beneath the seafloor.

“That’s amazing, because it suggests it is more likely that people lived there,” Fitch said, the outlet reported. This discovery not only sheds light on the advanced nature of the Hvar culture but also provides insights into the geographical and ecological conditions of the Adriatic region thousands of years ago. This submerged landscape was protected from harsher oceanic elements by the nearby Dalmatian islands, Daily Mail reported.

‘I’m Not Afraid to Say It’: DNC Volunteer Says Convention Drove Her to Ditch Harris (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , , /by

A podcaster who said she volunteered at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago left the event knowing she would not vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Harris accepted the Democratic nomination to replace President Joe Biden Thursday, a little more than a month after Biden announced he was ending his reelection bid. The co-host of the podcast “Rolling In The Deep State,” who introduced herself as Evan on another video on TikTok, said on a viral TikTok video that attendees at the convention were “the most elite and out-of-touch people in the entire world.”

“When I was there, I didn’t feel any connection to real America or the place that I come from, which is the Midwest, Kansas City, Kansas and Missouri,” the volunteer said. “I didn’t feel any connection to the people that I know right now, who are struggling to buy their groceries or to pay their rent, the people who want to know what both candidates are going to do to materially affect change in their lives. And when I was there listening to the speeches, I felt myself feeling mad because I didn’t hear anything about the economy, definitely not in Kamala’s speech and not very much in the others as well. Instead, I heard generic platitudes, things like joy and respect and integrity. And what does that even mean?”

“Let’s make the military the most lethal in the world? I thought I was part of the anti-war party,” the volunteer continued. “I thought I was part of the party that thought for the underdog, that championed working people. When and how did we just become the party of academia and affluence? That’s what we are right now.” (Read more from “‘I’m Not Afraid to Say It’: DNC Volunteer Says Convention Drove Her to Ditch Harris (VIDEO)” HERE)

Trump Honors Afghanistan Troops as Mainstream Media Ignores Anniversary; Biden, Harris ‘Have Never Once Reached Out’ to Gold Star Families of 13 Fallen Service Members, They Say

/3 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. President Donald Trump paid his respects to the 13 U.S. troops who were killed three years ago during President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan — while the morning shows on the major networks ignored the anniversary.

Monday, August 26, 2024, marked three years since the day a suicide bomber affiliated with the local branch of the so-called “Islamic State” (ISIS) killed 13 American service members and wounded dozens more at Kabul’s airport — while also murdering roughly 170 local civilians who were trying to flee the country.

Trump visited Arlington National Cemetery, laying a wreath alongside Marine Corporal Kelsee Lainhart, who was partially paralyzed by the blast. (Read more from “Trump Honors Afghanistan Troops as Mainstream Media Ignores Anniversary” HERE)

Biden, Harris ‘Have Never Once Reached Out’ to Gold Star Families of 13 Fallen Service Members, They Say

By AOL. President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris “have never once reached out” to the Gold Star families who lost their loved ones in the deadly bombing at Abbey Gate that killed 13 Americans during the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal three years ago.

Members of the Gold Star families participated in a call with GOP Vice Presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance, the Trump campaign and reporters Monday afternoon — three years after the attack.

The suicide bombing by a member of ISIS-K at the Abbey Gate entrance of Hamid Karzai International Airport took the lives of 13 U.S. service members – 11 Marines, one Navy sailor and one Army soldier. Eighteen other U.S. service members were wounded. The bombing also left more than 150 civilians dead.

Former President Trump held a wreath laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery Monday morning to commemorate and honor the 13 American service members who were killed. . .

“I think this administration has shown they have treated the Afghanistan withdrawal like the plague – they’ve stayed as far away from it as they possibly can,” Gold Star father Mark Schmitz said in response to a question by Fox News Digital. “I’m not surprised in the least bit that neither one of them would show up for this event.” (Read more from “Biden, Harris ‘Have Never Once Reached Out’ to Gold Star Families of 13 Fallen Service Members, They Say” HERE)

/5 Comments/in , /by

Former 2024 Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Sunday that he will “actively” campaign with 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Kennedy suspended his campaign and endorsed Trump Friday afternoon, later joining forces with the former president that evening at a campaign rally in Phoenix, Arizona. Kennedy told “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream that Trump will join forces with other Democrats as the election cycle progresses.

“I’ll be campaigning actively,” Kennedy told Bream. “President Trump is going to make a series of announcements of other Democrats who are joining his campaign. And, you know, I wanna make America healthy again, and so does President Trump.”

Kennedy told Bream he and Trump agree that healthy children should be part of his legacy if the former president wins a second term.

Kennedy took to social media Sunday morning and said that his endorsement of Trump is just the beginning of the GOP nominee’s “Unity” ticket.

Vance Says Trump Would Veto a National Abortion Ban

/4 Comments/in , /by

Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, former President Donald Trump’s running mate, said Saturday that Trump would veto a federal abortion ban if Congress were to pass one.

Asked on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” about GOP lawmakers like Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina who would want Trump to advocate for and sign an abortion ban, Vance told moderator Kristen Welker that Trump has “explicitly” said he would veto a ban.

“I mean, if you’re not supporting it, as the president of the United States, you fundamentally have to veto it,” Vance argued.

Trump has changed his position on abortion policy over the years.

Asked on a tarmac in Atlanta in April whether he would sign a national abortion ban if it passed through Congress, he simply answered, “No.” But he didn’t clarify at the time what he considered a “ban.” (Read more from “Vance Says Trump Would Veto a National Abortion Ban” HERE)

Democrat Lawmakers Dismiss Kamala Harris’s Price-Control Plan

/7 Comments/in , /by

A series of insider revelations have surfaced indicating that multiple Democrat lawmakers are privately dismissing Vice President Kamala Harris’s controversial grocery price-control plan, which has faced substantial backlash from economists and critics alike.

Politico reports that Democrat lawmakers are quietly signaling to concerned allies that Harris’s proposal, unveiled during her first policy-focused speech on August 16, is unlikely to advance through Congress. The plan, which has been described as “Soviet-style” by critics, aims to impose central price controls on food products. According to Politico, lawmakers have expressed doubts about the plan’s feasibility and effectiveness, with one anonymous Democrat describing it as a “lofty goal” and another admitting uncertainty about its operational mechanics.

An insider close to the White House has revealed that Harris’s plan does not effectively address the inflation issues plaguing the country. The insider remarked, “If we had a good tool, we’d definitely have used it,” suggesting that the administration’s attempt to address rising grocery prices is inadequate.

Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) highlights a troubling 22 percent increase in grocery prices from January 2021 — when President Joe Biden and Harris first took office — to July 2024. Despite this, the Biden-Harris administration has downplayed inflation concerns, with White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre inaccurately claiming in June that prices for staple items like eggs and milk, as well as gasoline, have decreased.

According to Politico, several lawmakers and aides interviewed under anonymity have confirmed that Congressional Democrats are privately acknowledging the impracticality of Harris’s plan. A food industry official echoed this sentiment, labeling the proposal as “not a serious policy” and suggesting it is more of a political maneuver designed to deflect blame from the administration’s handling of inflation.

Criticism of the plan has been further amplified by Washington Post columnist Catherine Rampell, who penned a scathing op-ed describing the proposal as a “sweeping set of government-enforced price controls” that would undermine market dynamics. Rampell warned that such a policy would replace supply and demand with bureaucratic control, potentially allowing agencies like the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to dictate prices for basic goods.

RFK Jr.’s Sister Has a Total Meltdown Over Her Brother’s Support for Trump

/5 Comments/in , /by

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped out of the 2024 race last Friday. It was a highly anticipated moment as Mr. Kennedy was now siphoning support away from Donald Trump. When Joe Biden was running, Mr. Kennedy’s support was relatively strong for an independent bid, albeit one fraught with legal battles. The political establishment didn’t want Kennedy screwing around with their plans against Trump.

There was some intrigue about whether Kennedy would endorse Trump as his wife, Cheryl Hines, and running mate, Nicole Shanahan, didn’t seem inclined to do so outright. Hines doesn’t appear to be a Trump fan, being from Hollywood, while Shanahan wanted Trump to admit Operation Warp Speed was a failure. Kennedy made his endorsement of Trump official last week, noting the war on children, Ukraine, and free speech as the primary reasons for getting on the MAGA train. It’s a move that’s horrified his family, leading RFK Jr’s sister, Kerry, to suffer a meltdown, going on this holier-than-thou tirade:

Tim Walz Faces Another Accusation of Misrepresentation in Unearthed, Blistering Letter: ‘Remove Any Reference’

/3 Comments/in , /by

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is facing another accusation of misrepresenting his background after a Nebraska Chamber of Commerce letter from 2006 resurfaced amid Walz’s campaign for vice president.

When Walz first ran for Congress in Minnesota, he touted on his campaign website that he received an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce in 1993 for his work with the business community, according to a 2006 article from the Post Bulletin.

He never received such an award, however, which was outlined to him in a blistering letter from the then-president of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce, Barry L. Kennedy.

“We researched this matter and can confirm that you have not been the recipient of any award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce,” the letter addressed to Walz on Nov. 1, 2006, reads.

“I am not going to draw a conclusion about your intentions by including this line in your biography. However, we respectfully request that you remove any reference to our organization as it could be considered an endorsement of your candidacy. It should be pointed out, however, that the US Chamber of Commerce has endorsed your opponent, Congressman Gil Gutknecht, for his support of small business issues,” Kennedy continued.

Donald Trump Unveils Dramatic Details of Assassination Attempt: Moment It Happened, Who’s to Blame, Why He Got Up and Yelled ‘Fight, Fight, Fight’

/6 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that when he was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, in mid-July he knew instantly it was a bullet that had hit him.

“A lot of times, and I was thinking about this, it would seem like a surreal moment—like you don’t realize almost where you are,” Trump said when asked to describe what went through his mind in that moment. “I never felt that. I knew immediately I got hit by a bullet.”

Trump’s comments came during a lengthy exclusive interview at Mar-a-Lago a couple weeks ago, where he sat for an hour with Breitbart News after a press conference he held earlier in the day. One of the most interesting parts of the interview was Trump talking about the failed assassination attempt from 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks against him, and it was unbelievable to hear Trump himself describe just how lucky he was that the would-be assassin’s bullets barely missed him.

Trump, sitting behind his big ornate wooden desk, described to Breitbart News that he would be dead if he had not turned exactly the right way at exactly the right second.

“So what are the odds that I’m looking to the right?” Trump said. “The poster is never used early, and it’s never on the right it’s always on the left. If you take the odds of this whole thing it’s like 10 million to one and you only have an eighth of a second.” (Read more from “Donald Trump Unveils Dramatic Details of Assassination Attempt: Moment It Happened, Who’s to Blame, Why He Got Up and Yelled ‘Fight, Fight, Fight’” HERE)

Trump Unleashes Fierce Anti-Harris Storm: Kamala ‘Trying to Make It Sound Like I Am the Incumbent President’

/2 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump unleashed a storm of comments Sunday afternoon, saying Kamala Harris and Democrat operatives are working to convince voters that he – not Joe Biden – is actually the current commander in chief.

“Kamala and her ‘handlers’ are trying to make it sound like I am the Incumbent President, so that they can blame me for the failure of the past four years,” Trump said on X. . .

“There will be no future under Comrade Kamala Harris, because she will take us into a Nuclear World War III! She will never be respected by the Tyrants of the World!” Trump continued. . . .

“If you think things are expensive now, they will get 100 times WORSE if Kamala gets four years as President. Under her plan, Kamala will implement SOVIET Style Price Controls. She will abolish private health care, and make California’s ridiculous tax policies the law of the land, meaning EVERY American will be taxed up to 80% of their income! If you want more CASH and less TAX, VOTE TRUMP!!!” (Read more from “Trump Unleashes Fierce Anti-Harris Storm: Kamala ‘Trying to Make It Sound Like I Am the Incumbent President'” HERE)
