November 19, 2024
President elect Trump has urged both the Ukraine and Russia not to
escalate the war even in this very critical period.
November 19, 2024
What if war should break out before January 20, 2025, when President
elect Trump will be sworn into office, will the powers that be allow
him to take office? The U.S. Constitution does not allow a president
elect from not taking office, even in times of war and there have
been several examples of this in the past.
November
19, 2024 Historic Note:
Historically, the Ukraine was a part of Russia. This was the case for
over 1,000 years till 1992. The Russians consider the Ukrainians to
be their brothers since the share an almost identical language,
Orthodox Christian religion and culture. The first capital of Russia
or "Russian" was Kiev.
November 19, 2024
United States President elect, Donald J. Trump stated
"We have never been closer to World War Three, than we are today". President
elect Trump was referring to the attack on Russia today by the
Ukrainians, after current President Biden gave permission to the
Ukrainians to use American missiles against Russia. It would be as if
during the 1962 Cuban missile Crises, if Cuba would have shot Russian
made missiles into the United States. President Trump referred to the
Ukrainian-Russian war as a proxy war, implying that NATO and the
United States were actually fighting the war using Ukrainian troops.
Many military experts are saying that the targeting and manning of
the missile batteries must have been NATO or American experts using
NATO and or American information and that the Ukrainians only pushed
the launch button.
November 19, 2024
The Ukraine launched six ATACMS, American made missiles into Russia. Putin
had warned that if this should happen, that the United States and
Russia would effectively be at war.
November 19, 2024
President Putin of Russia has warned that "we
will use nuclear weapons if a mass enemy missile or uav is
launched towards Russia or when these weapons cross into Russian territory".
November 12, 2024
Some Democrats are suggesting that President Biden should resign and
that Kamala Harris would then become the first woman president. Other
Democrats are pushing for Supreme Court Justice Maya to resign saying
that she is not physically well and if she should resign over the
next four years, President Elect Trump would push for a conservative
justice to be appointed, making the conservative to liberal ratio 7
to 2.
November 8, 2024
The final count is in. Trump received 312 Electoral College votes
while Kamala Harris received 226 votes. President elect Trump also
won the popular vote with a hair under 76 million votes, making him,
by numbers, the highest that any Republican presidential candidate
ever received. Of course, the population of the United States has
increased dramatically over the years. Since 1980, the population in
the United States has increased by about 100 million, mostly from immigration.
November 8, 2024 A
group of illegal "immigrants" protested against deportation
laws. Presently, illegal immigrants are given free food, housing and
more. Is it any wonder, why they wish to stay.
November 6, 2024
Vice President Kamila Harris has conceded defeat in a speech given in
Howard University in Washington DC. Her speech was remarkably similar
to the speech given by Hillary Clinton when she also was defeated by
President Elect Donald J. Trump.
November 5, 2024
3:30AM Eastern Time Kamila Harris has not said anything yet, but we
expect vice president Harris to admit defeat by later today.
SPECIAL:
November 5, 2024 3:00AM Eastern Time. DONALD J.
TRUMP has won the presidency of the United States. This
makes him both the 45 and 47 president of the United States. We
project that he has won both the popular vote as well as the
Electoral College vote with what we project will be 308 Electoral
College votes. It was not since the 1880's when President Grover
Cleveland was the president from 1885 to 1893 and again, four years
later, from 1893 to 1897. President Benjamin Harris was between the
two Grover Cleveland's two presidencies.
November 4, 2024
9PM The entire city is so quiet. It is as though it is the calm
before the storm. In this case, Presidential election day is
tomorrow, November 5, 2024 and is possibly the most contentious and
divisive election since 1860. The anger level seems sky high.
November 4, 2024
Presidential candidate Donald Trump said that he is OK with Robert F.
Kennedy (RFK) desire to make a mandate removing fluoride from
drinking water in the United States. Fluoride has been controversial
since 1954 when it was first added to drinking water in some areas of
the United States. The original reason was allegedly to reduce tooth
decay. Fluoride is in many, though not all toothpastes. Recent
studies have concluded that fluoride leads to reduced IQ in children
and issues over time with kidneys, liver and with memory loss. Only
eight countries world wide add fluoride to their drinking water with
most main industrial countries prohibiting fluoride
November 3, 2024
The New York State Environmental Protection seizing and killing of
P-Nut, a pet of Mr. Mark Longo, has become national news. Most people
are referring to the entire episode as absurd and government over reach.
November 3, 2024
New York State Governor Kathy Hochal referred to the approximate 40
percent of the state which are Republicans as anti-American. Some
people in New York State are now voicing their opinion that Governor
Hochal does not hold New York Values. To many people, on both sides
of the political spectrum, for the Governor to label 40 percent of
the population as anti American is not acceptable.
October 31, 2024
The Los Angeles Dodgers won the World Series and some people in LA
celebrated by looting stores and massive vandalism.
October 30, 2024 A
large swat team invaded a persons private house in Pine City, New
York and seized a small squirrel that the owner, Mr. Mark Longo kept
as a pet for seven years after its mother abandoned it, and then
killed the squirrel. Some people are referring to the New York State
Department of Environmental Protection's action as a terrorist
action. The Squirrel, known on line as P-Nut, had a following of over
500,000 people on-line.
October 26, 2024 A
huge Donald Trump presidential rally was held in Madison Square
Garden today with key speakers from the Republican Party including
Robert F Kennedy, Jr, Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, Tulsi Gabbard and
many others and of course, former President Donald J. Trump. About
20,000 people were inside of Madison Square Garden, however tens of
thousand Trump supporters were clogging all of the local streets
around the Garden. President Trump also praised New York Mayor Eric
Adams and seemed to downplay or even question the Federal Charges
against the Mayor. Many people around the country seem to think that
the recent charges against President Trump and some of this allies
are politically motivated.
October 25, 2024
Israel has attacked Tehran in retaliation for a 180 missile attack on
Israel this past month. The 180 missile attack by Tehran was in
itself in response to an Israeli attack and murder of a guest of the
Tehran government near the Iranian presidential palace and for the
severe injury of the Iranian ambassador to Iraq by a booby trapped
cell phone. Unconfirmed stories indicate that over Israeli 100 planes
participated in the attack. Other unconfirmed stories also state that
the United States supplied Israel with 12 refueling aircraft in order
to make the almost 1600 mile round trip from Israel to Iran and back.
It is not known if United States military personnel manned those
refueling aircraft. Last month, Russia vowed to protect Iran from
foreign attack, while the United States has stated that it would
protect Israel, regardless of what Israel did. It remains to be seen
if a major regional and possible global war will break out as a
result of all of this.
October 25, 2024
Six San Francisco transit workers who were fired for refusing to get
the experimental Covid-19 MRNA injections were awarded $1,300,000
each. The Bay Area Transit (BART) workers who refused on religious
grounds were fired. An additional 103 employees were also fired.
Their status is not known yet. Religious freedom from governmental
interference is protected under the first amendment of the U.S.
Constitution and is the law of the land.
October 25, 2024
According to the NYPD, a 79 year old man and his 75 year old wife
were purposely knocked down by a young group of 5 thugs described as
having a dark complexion and thought to be in their 20's. The assault
occurred in broad daylight at 2 PM on Houston Street, near Lafayette.
October 25, 2024
The Washington Post has decided not to endorse either presidential
candidate. Since 1990, the Washington Post has always endorsed one
candidate or the other.

This East German
Trabant, or Trauby was manufactured in former East Germany and was
looked down upon, after the Unification in 1989-1990 of East and West
Germany. At the time, some people sold the car of one mark or about
40 cents! Today, the car sells for thousands of dollars. |

October 1, 2024
Iran has attacked Israel with between 180 and 500 missiles that have
hit Israel throughout their territory, including Haifa, Tel Aviv and
elsewhere. The attack was in retaliation for Israel's attack in
Beirut that resulted in damage and deaths to a number of people
including a guest to the government of Iran. The United States, which
has 43,000 soldiers in the area, primarily in Iraq has stated that
they are sending an additional 1,300 soldiers to the area and has
stated that they will protect Israel The United Kingdom has also
declared it's support for Israel Israel is also continuing to bomb
Lebanon. In April of this year, Russian President Vladimir Putin
stated that Russia will protect Iran if Iran is invaded. Some have
stated that what is happening now could be the beginning of a major
war or even a world war. If this is the case, in this age of advanced
missiles, no country can be considered safe, even if protected by oceans.
October 1, 2024 At
midnight today, fifty thousand International Longshoremen went on
strike on the east coast of they United States, from Maine, all the
way to Texas. This means that ships can not be loaded or unloaded,
thus all imported and exported shipping has come to a standstill on
the east coast. New products, such as car parts, cars, food, wine,
beer and everything else can not leave or come into the east coast of
the United States. It is estimated that the USA is losing about 5
billion dollars PER DAY as a result of the strike. The impact of this
strike will not be felt for several weeks, since warehouses across
the country as well as the stores themselves have some reserves,
however after the products are sold, no new products will be
available. The strike only effects the east coast, however the west
coast can not add more volume since it is already at capacity. The
longshoremen want job security and are concerned that they will lose
their jobs over the next few years as a result of automation. The
longshoreman men were offered a pay increase of 50% over a 6 year
period, which works out to a little more than 8% pay raise per year
when compounded, however they were not offered job security. This
strike can and will have a massive impact on the USA, the economy and
on an individual basis on scarcity of products, higher prices and more.
October 1, 2024
Some estimates have stated that vastly more than the official death
toll of 138 people as a result of Hurricane Helene has occurred with
some saying that the number could actually be in the thousands. Very
little real aid has entered the devastated areas and President Biden
has stated that he has not provided any additional federal money to
the effected areas. He has been criticized for this considering that
he just advanced an additional 19 billion dollars to protect the
foreign countries of the Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel Some unconfirmed
reports indicates that numerous bodies are floating in the flooded
areas and in the resulting mud. A true disaster by any standard.
The entrance signs
to Brooklyn tends to change every few years. In the late 1970's,
Brooklyn with over 3 million people, was the fourth largest city in
the United States. Brooklyn was actually an independent city till
1897, when New York County (including at the time the Bronx) and
Queens (which included at the time, what is now Nassau County) and
Brooklyn unified. |

Here is an
advertisement for so called "Crypto currency". What exactly

gullibility of the person who has purchased this intangible
"item"? It reminds this writer of the tulip craze in
Holland in the 1600's where for a brief period, a single tulip bulb
would sell for the price of two homes! Tulips were originally brought
into Europe in the 1600's from Turkey. |

Over 125 people are known to have died in the United States, as a
result of Hurricane Helene, which caused massive flooding and wind
destruction throughout the south eastern part of the United States,
from Florida to North Carolina.
September 30, 2024
Recent illegal immigrants are accused of looting in flood ravaged
Tennessee, following Hurricane Helene. This has led some to speculate
that the illegal immigrants are culturally incompatible.

September 25,
2024, Wedding in Williamsburg Brooklyn.
The Hsidem is a
mystery to both non-Jews and liberal Jews alike. The truth is that
there is no real mystery. The Hsidem are very family oriented and
have a high degree of personal morality and honor.
Some how this
practicing Latin Mass Catholic has become close friends over the
years with some of the leadership of the Satmar Hsidic community and
recognize the beautiful community nature of the group. |
|
|
One of the many
appetizers served at the wedding. Needless to say, all food is Kosher. |
|
|
Hats are still in
style in the Hsidic community and tend to be very expensive, with
some made from beaver skin. |
|
|
Unlike many
non-Hsidic event halls, the Hsidic events do not have coat or hat
checks, but operates on a honor system and have coat racks at the
entrance of the hall. |
|
|
|
In Orthodox and
Hsidic Jewish weddings and other events, the women are on one side of
a barrier and the men on the other side. This applies even during the
the actual ceremony when the vows are declared. |
|
|
|
Hsidic weddings
are very solemn and everyone attending recognizes the importance of
the ceremony and commitments. Divorce is almost unheard of though in
very rare cases, a "GET" or Orthodox Jewish
"divorce" may be issued by a Rabbinical council. A woman
who has received a "Get" may remarry but may not marry a Cohen. |
|
|
At the marriage,
the bride walks around the groom seven times praying and declaring
their everlasting commitment. |
|
|
The Bride, as most
brides, are very nervous. So are the grooms. Crying seems to be
common...for both. As soon as the Rabbi declares that the couple are
married, the crowd of men and women cheer. Very touching. |

Icom, the famous radio maker from Japan, is claiming that they had
nothing to do with the walkie talkie explosions and that the modes of
the exploding walkie talkies had been discontinued in 2011. Icom
further stated that the walkie talkies involved in the explosion,
were illegal knock-offs. The pager manufacturer is from Taiwan but
they have declared that they licensed the technology to a Hungarian
company. The Hungarian company is claiming that they are only a
distributor of the pagers. Some sources are claiming that the
Hungarian company is a Massad front organization. Much is unknown how
the devices came to be and how they had an explosive added to them.

Leon Panetta, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA) has called Israel's pager bomb operation terrorism.
September 20, 2024
Reports now indicate that the pager explosions that occurred on
September 17, 2024, killed at least 12 people, including two children
and severely injured up to 2,700 people, many with their fingers or
hands blown off and blinded in one or both eyes by the explosion. The
ambassador from Iran is said to have been severely injured and lost
an eye. In addition, the walkie-talkie explosions killed 25 people
and injured an additional 1.300 people. Reports indicate that the
pagers were sent a message and then a few seconds later, the pagers
exploded. In those few seconds, the pager users, in many cases held
the pager to see who was texting them and then after the explosion,
had their hand severely injured and in many cases, suffered from
partial or complete blindness. Some countries are calling this a
massive terrorist action. Many Middle East countries are blaming
Israel for the attack and Lebanon has declared that a state of war
exists between Lebanon and Israel.

not as bright as they were in the past. This might be do to
atmospheric conditions and the lack of moisture in the air, or
perhaps the intensity of the lights is less than in the past. |

Lower Manhattan, New York City. Today is the twenty second year since
the destruction of the World Trade Center and the deaths of over
2,000 people. The general explanation of the attacks was that 19
hijackers hyjacked 4 airplanes and two crashed into the twin towers
of the World Trade Center, one crashed into the Pentagon in
Washington DC and one crashed into a field in Pennsylvania. Never the
less, many questions remain, including how 7 World Trade Center
collapsed considering that it was not hit by any of the planes, how
come so many people heard bombs going off in all three buildings and
many other issues. The desctruction of the Trade Center led to
America's attack on Iraq, and Alfganistan, that resulted in the
deaths of close to 10,000 American soldiers and tens of thousands of
injured American soldiers and the deaths of an estimated million civilians.

other buildings, about 300 feet (96 meters) from the Bahman hospital.
The apparent target was Mohsen Shokr, the commander of the Hezbollah
operations headquarters who is in charge of the use of high precision
missiles. Mr. Shokr is said to have left the building before the
Israeli attack.

A huge number of
migrants have entered New York City, that was declared, under Mayor
DeBlasio, a sanctuary city. The Migrants are flowing into the city at
an estimated rate of 20,000 per month. This has created a housing as
well as a huge financial burden for the City and the taxpayer. |

church has been attacked.
July 30, 2024 Huge riots are happening in Southport, England in
protest of the knife/machete murder of 3 young girls and 8 others in
critical condition. The attack was by a UK born, Rwanda background,
17 year old. Exact motives for this savagery has not been disclosed
but many in England are saying that it is an attack against the
traditional white, Christian, English population. It is believed that
the attacker was Moslem. Over 100 people have been arrested and many
have been admitted into hospital. There is fear in England that the
rioting may spread throughout the country, because of simmering
underlying anti-non European feelings.
July 30, 2024 The Olympic committee has cleared two male boxers to
compete in the Paris 2024 Olympics. Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin
Yu-Ting of Taiwan had previously been banned from world championship
tournaments after the International Boxing Association claimed that

announced a boycott of the "degenerate" Olympics. Deputy
Prime Minister is said to have written in his official Facebook page
"I was supposed to represent Slovakia at the closing ceremony,
but for the normal world, this Olympics will forever remain a symbol
of degenerate decadence, which abused the beauty of sport and turned
it into progressive political Theater. Therefor, I have decided not
to participate in the closing ceremony". Deputy Prime Minister
Taraba also wrote on his X (former Twitter) account "The insults
to Christianity and the decadence presented have reached such a level
that they have offended the whole normal world, which understands the
difference between culture and garbage".

July 26, 2024 The Paris Olympics opening has created a firestorm of
controversy. On the famous seine river, a group of transvestite/drag
queens held a parody of "The Last Supper", mocking 2.4
Billion Christians. Further, one of the performers at the Paris
Olympic opening ceremony had his testicles hanging out the side of
his pants. Other controversial issues have come up including holding
a model head of the beheaded Marion Antoinette. These hideous, vulgar
displays of mockery and debauchery has destroyed the good feelings
that billions of people around the world had for the Olympics.

cities today against Israel's war against Palestine in which an
estimated 42,000 Palestinian civilians have been killed.
July 23, 2024 The head of the United States Secret Service, Ms.
Kimberly Cheatle, has resigned. Members from both parties have been
calling for her resignation because of what is perceived as a poorly
organized protection plan for former president Donald J. Trump, who
was shot in the ear on July 13, 2024, during an assassination attempt
on his life in Pennsylvania. One innocent bystander was killed and
two bystanders received serious injuries.
July 21, 2024 President Joseph Biden has decided not to seek
re-election based on "health issues". Recently
representatives from both parties have expressed concern regarding
President Biden's cognitive ability and also questioned if he can
beat former President Trump in the November elections. President
Biden has now endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidency.
New York City has a problem with motorcycles and so
called electric "bicycles", which are nothing more than
electric motorcycles. Either the motorcycle does not have license

registered, and insured, the same as automobiles, to protect the public. |

daughter. The two other victims have been identified as 74 year old
Mr. James Coenhaver, and 57 year old Mr. David Dutch. Both are in
hospital and listed as being in stable condition.
July 14, 2024 It was reveled that the attempted assassin was 20 year
old Thomas Matthew Crooks, from Bethel Pennsylvania, which is about
40 miles south from Betler Pennsylvania, where the attempted
assassination occurred. Mr. Crooks was shot and killed by Secret
Service snipers.

attempt on former President Donald J. Trump. It is understood that
President Biden has called Mr. Trump and told Mr. Trump that he hopes
that he has a speedy recovery.
July 13, 2024 Mr. Trump left the hospital on his own power and has
been escorted to the airport.
July 13, 2024 Former President Donald J. Trump has
been shot. The shooting occurred this afternoon at a campaign
rally in Betler Pennsylvania. A sniper apparently attempted to
assassinate former President Trump for a roof top, outside of the
security perimeter, about 400ft (130 meters) from where Mr. Trump was
addressing the crowd. Reports indicate that former President Trump
right side ear was grazed and that he was bleeding over his face.
Further, spectator was killed and two spectators were badly injured.
The United States Secret Service quickly gunned down and killed the
sniper. President Trump was led off of the podium, on his own power,
by a phalanx of Secret Service Officers, and defiantly held his fist
up and said "fight". His face was covered in blood. Mr.
Trump was rushed to a local medical facility.

One of the reasons
for constant traffic jams includes the constant road repairs. The
repairs are often by utility companies and sadly, the repairs are not
coordinated, so it is possible one week an electric company opens the
street, then the next week a cable company opens the street and then
after a gas company opens the street. The street openings should be
coordinated so that they are all such work is done at the same time. |

July 5, 2024 The country of Nigeria has decided to recall the 21 tons
of gold that it is storing in the United States and in the UK.
Nigerian officials are said to be concerned by rising inflation, debt
levels, and tical tensions. Essentially they seem to have lost faith
and trust in the United States and the UK. The fact that Russian Gold
valued at 650 Billion dollars as well as their money was seized by
western countries is also of great concern. For these reasons Nigeria
has decided to store their wealth locally. In 2015, Australia brought
back about half of its gold that was said to be held by the Federal
Reserve. In 2017, Germany repatriated about half of its gold
holdings, said to be in the Federal Reserve. At the time, they had
trouble having the gold returned and the gold that was returned was
said to be, not the original gold that they had deposited with the
Federal Reserve. In 2019, Poland repatriated 100 tons of gold, as did
Hungary and Romania. Some "conspiracy" stories claim that
the gold in the Federal Reserve as well as other depository sites,
such as Fort Knox in Kentucky have long been depleted of its gold and
that no gold remains, other than promissory notes for the
non-existent gold.

July 2, 2024 Calls continue to come in for President Biden not to
seek re-election this November, including from members of his
Democratic Party.
July 2, 2024 According to a report in the New York Times, allegedly
leaders of the recent G7 summit were shocked by what they perceived
as President Biden mental and physical decline.
Many car owners cover their license plates allegedly
to protect the plate from the elements, however such curved coverings
makes it difficult for automatic toll collect (EZ Pass) locations to

Protruding automobile bike racks are extremely
dangerous since it can act as a spear and injure the rear car driver
in an accident. Further, the bike rack prevents the license plate
from being read. The police should enforce the rules to fold such
racks when not in use. |

July 1, 2024 According to the New York Post, President Biden's wife
Jill Biden is negotiating with Democratic Party leaders to have
President Biden withdraw from the 2024 election, provided that
certain conditions are met including a billion dollars for the a
Biden Presidential library, a 100 million dollar book advance deal
and immunity from any possible prosecution of any Biden family
members or President Biden himself. It seems unlikely that any of
these conditions would be met, if in fact, they were even suggested.
June 30, 2024 The annual Gay Pride Parade was held
today in New York City as well as a number of other locations around
the world. In the case of New York City, the parade and people
watching the parade created quit a spectacle which included nudity,
partial nudity and colorful behavior. The after effect of the parade
was somewhat dampened by a very heavy rain downpour and high winds.
Union Square as well as Washington Square Park are where many Pride
participants ended up.

Nudity was common at the Gay event. Many women walked
around with their breasts exposed (which has been legal since 1979).
Further, some women painted their personal areas, but otherwise was

Just a generation ago, homosexual events were mostly
not accepted. Today, regardless of accepted or not, critics are
mostly silent. |

The NYC Department of Transportation also participated in "Gay

Homosexuality is still illegal or greatly curtailed in
over half the countries in the world. In some countries, being gay
can mean a jail sentence or worse. The U.S. Government, though
various means including financial incentives and other methods,
encourage non-compliant countries. |

Even the iconic Empire State Building displayed the
gay flag colors. |

The bus lanes are designed to speed bus traffic and to
discourage and undermine private car use. A combination of bus lanes
and mostly under used bike lanes have greatly slowed down the speed

June 28, 2024 Calls for President Biden to decline the Democratic
nomination for reelection are coming from all quarters, after his
terrible performance at the debate with former President Donald Trump
two days ago. Some people have also suggested that he should resign
immediately and other are demanding that President Biden be removed
because of incompetency.
June 27, 2024 President Joseph Biden gave a speech this morning at
9AM EST in South Carolina, where unlike yesterday evening at the
debate with former President Trump, President Biden seemed completely
in control, coherent and at the top of his game. His excellent
performance in the morning contrasts greatly with his terrible
performance in the evening, which might indicate a type of Sundown Syndrome.

June 26, 2024 Mr. Julian Assange arrived in Canberra, Australia, a
free man, though convicted of the charge in the United States of
conspiring to obtain and disclose classified U.S. national defence
documents. Many people from around the world have agreed with Mr.
Assange and the vast majority of reporters and people who respect
free press and open government agree with Mr. Assange. His case
started when in 2010, Mr Assange received documents as well as a
video showing U.S. forces killing a group of believed innocent
civilians in Afghanistan, by a U.S. helicopter. Earlier, the U.S.
Government stated that these civilians and two reporters were killed
by terrorists, but the video showed that it was U.S. forces behind
the massacre. This caused a global scandal. Immediately, the U.S.
Government did everything possible to find the leaker and prosecute
anyone who initially published this, which happened to be the website
Wikileaks. The case is stunning since immediately after, two Swedish
women claimed that they had been raped by Assange, but Mr. Assange
stated that their intercourse was consentual. To add to the absurdity
of this, one of the women stated that Mr. Assange had intercourse
with her a number of times one night, however the last time he had
intercourse with her, Mr. Assange did not wear a condom and she
stated that "she required a condom". Eventually those rape
charges were dropped, and many believe that the allegations of rape
was a method to arrest Mr. Assange and eventually deport him to the
USA for prosecution of the above noted secrecy act violations. Mr.
Assange took refuge in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where he
stayed from 2012 till 2019, when Ecuador decided to allow British
police to arrest him. Since 2019 till 2024, Mr. Assange was in a
British prison, fighting extradition to the USA. A compromise was
reached in early June and Mr. Assange pleaded guilty to lower charges
and was released because of time served in the British prison. This
case reminded many people and reporters of the Pentagon Papers from
1973, however in that case, the two Washington Post reporters were
not arrested. Further, Mr. Assange's refuge in the Ecuadorian Embassy
for seven years reminded many of Soviet citizens who took refuge in
the US Embassy in Moscow during the Cold War. Many view Mr. Assange
as a political prisoner. Freedom of press apparently has limits in
today's world.

Many private car owners feel that under used street
closures are unfair since they create additional traffic. This writer
was born on the Upper East Side in Manhattan and back in the 1950's
and 1960's, it was common for the streets to be closed for "play
days". Most people then owned private cars. Private cars
represents a type of freedom. |

The Vision Zero program that was pushed by former
mayor Bill DeBlasio has not led to less pedestrian traffic accidents,

June 26, 2024 Former President Donald J. Trump and current President

and Mr. Biden seemed incoherent at times.

Should a private company be given special rights to

the struggling New Yorkers. |

Bishop Strickland and Notre Dame head football coach Lou Holtz, as
well as others.

Angelica,
New York. Could this be the
friendliest town
in the USA?
The town of
Angelica, in upstate New York. Town square/circle. |
|
|
This town can only
be described as Angelic, thus the name Angelica. |
|
|
It reminds this
writer (Frank X. Didik), of the 1950's movie Brigadoon. Everything is
too perfect. |

May 6 is the Orthodox Christian Easter |
|
|
Until 1054, when what are now known as Catholics and
the Orthodox separated, the Catholic Mass (service) was almost
identical to how the Russian Orthodox still celebrate today. Till
1969, an estimated 70% of the Catholics had their Mass in the Middle
Latin language (10 Century Latin). The rest of the Catholics back
then had their service in the local languages. Latin was adapted by
the Catholics around 400AD. Prior to that, the Mass as mostly said in
Aramaic or Greek. The Socalled Traditional Latin Mass, is actually
rather new and was known as the "Dialog Mass", and was
instituted in September, 1958. Prior to 1958, the people did not
speak at all during the mass. Singing (not chanting) and seats in
Catholic Churches were added after 1054. |

where the National Guard used live ammunition and shot student
anti-Vietnam protesters, killing four students and injuring a number
of others. The Kent State shootings occurred on May 4, 1970 and this
galvanized the anti-Vietnam war protests throughout the United
States. Some people are drawing parallels between the anti-Vietnam
student protests and the current anti-Israel protests. In the case of
Vietnam, the students were protesting the bombing and killing of
Vietnamese by the American military, while today, the students are
protesting Israeli destruction and killing of (at present) 35,000
Palestinians and injuring of over 75,000.
May 4, 2024 In a stunning move, France has sent combat troops to the

Mediterranean. How Yemen plans to do this was not explained.
May 4, 2024 The United States is building a very costly, 320 Billion
dollar, temporary dock/harbor to Gaza, allegedly to bring
humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza people. One must wonder how
come the aid is not simply transported overland from Egypt and even
Israel Some Arab and Palestinian people feel the true purpose is to
transport the Gaza Palestinians away from Gaza, similar to what
happened to the people in what is now Israel in 1947.
May 4, 2024 In a stunning move, liberal Denmark, where anything goes,

law of the land.

Shoplifting is making it difficult for many businesses to stay in New
York City. Basic goods, such as tooth paste are not being locked
away. Part of the problem is that shoplifters are no longer detained
but rather given desk summonses. So called "bail reform"
has allowed perpetual law breakers to avoid prison, if their theft is
below $1000 each time they shoplift.

According to reports, Iran's recent retaliation against Israel for
the attack and killing on the Iranian Embassy in Syria, consisted of
185 drones, 36 cruise missiles and 110 surface to surface missiles
launched from Iran. All of the missiles used by Iran were apparently
outdated and according to some reports, do not represent a vast
stockpile of newer missiles in Iran's stockpile. Israel stated that
over 99% of the missiles fired at Israel were destroyed. A retired
Israeli general, Brigadier General Reem Aminoach, has stated that
Israel used over 1.3 billion dollars in missiles to stop this attack.
In addition, it is estimated that the United States, Great Britain
and France also spent in excess of 1.5 billion dollars to stop the
attack. The assumption is that had Iran launched a significantly
larger number of missiles, that the destruction level would have been
much greater. A patriot missile system costs over 1 billion dollars.

Eclipse in Upstate New York: From Mexico and all the way across the
United States, there was a total eclipse. The time of totality was
between 3 minutes and 3.5 minutes, depending upon the location. The
width of totality was about 109 miles/170km. In the case of News1.net
and Frank Didik, our telescopes were set up just north of Lake Placid
New York, about 300 miles/500km north of New York City. A total
eclipse is vastly different than a 99% eclipse. First, within just 4
seconds, the temperature dropped by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. During
totality, animals and insects were confused. We were set up by a lake
and immediately, the ducks, geese and loons could be heard screaming.
The totality was different than just being dark. The colors, for some
unexplained reason, seemed to shift. Further, our digital cameras did
not seem to function well and we had to rely on film cameras. It is
regrettable that we did not bring radio testing equipment. There are
articles written in the 1950's by Ham (short wave radio) operators
who wrote that the eclipse effected short wave communication.

News1.net brought a 2,000mm lens, a 600mm lens and a
75 to 300mm zoom lens. All camera's and lenses were equipped with

March
24, 2024 Squatter crisis. Seemingly out of nowhere, the country is
suddenly facing a Squatter crisis where knowledgeable people break
into homes and claim that they have a right to be there. Shockingly,
after a certain period of time, these trespassers gain certain rights
and the real home owner has to take the squatters to court, which may
take years and cost tens of thousands of dollars to try to get them
out. In New York City, a Squatter only has to be in the property for
28 days. There are cases of families returning home from a vacation
only to find out that someone is now living in their home!

anti Russian protest in Shibuya, Tokyo. Since the professionally

Protests
for and against various issues has gone global. Above are examples of
protests on the streets of Tokyo, Japan.
February
24, 2024 A U.S. Airforce member set himself on fire in front of the
Israeli Embassy in a protest to "free Palestine". This is
reminiscent of the Budist monk who killed himself in 1966 in Saigon
in protest of the Vietnam war.
February

a similar stone given by NASA to the Dutch people, that turned out
not to be from the moon, but rather a piece of petrified wood!! |

This display is
alleged to be of early human beings. Science is the ability to test
and retest and always get the same results. If something can not be
tested, it falls under the domain of philosophy. Anything that ends
with "theory" is mere speculation and may or may not be
true. For example, the molecular theory, the theory of evolution or
theory of global warming, etc, etc. |

City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers in an overtime play. San
Francisco was in the first half winning 9 to 0.
February
11, 2024 Superbowl. It seems that the television commercials during
the super bowl are becoming more and more ridiculous. Sadly the half
time show has also fallen. Years ago, the halftime show was something
to look forward to. This year, the show lacked dynamics and was
lackluster to a number of people.
February
9, 2024 News commentator Tucker Carson interviewed Russian President
Vladimir Putin. The interview seemed drawn out to many, with
President Putin giving a long, detailed talk, for perhaps half of the
interview, on early Russian history, apparently truly to explain that
Russia and the Ukraine have always been together and have a thousand
year history of working with each other. There were no surprises in
the interview.
February
9, 2024 It seems that many countries are extremely critical of
Israel regarding the Israeli-Palestinian war. Turkish president
Tayyip Erdogan compared the Israeli attack on Gaza to World War 2
Nazi atrocities. It would seem that Israel has lost the propaganda
war and there is now fear that the current conflict may become a
regional war.
February
9, 2024 A Brazilian tourist was shot in the leg during a shoot out
between teenage illegal aliens and police, after the teenage illegals
was stopped from stealing from a local store. Illegal aliens in New
York City has significantly increased the rate of crime. Sadly, not
only is the USA southern border not protected, but illegals are
actually being paid and given debit cards of $1,000, that are
automatically refreshed every 28 days. Almost all Americans are
opposed to this obvious injustice.
February
7, 2024 Former President Donald J. Trump has said that if/when he is
back in office, he will deport millions and millions of illegal's who
have snuck into the country.
February
7, 2024 The controversial and highly unpopular Congestion pricing
toll, that was originally proposed by former Mayor Bloomberg, may
come into force in mid June and cost New Yorkers $15 to enter the
city, south of 60th street. Many feel that businesses will suffer,
Uber and taxi riders will pay more, deliveries will be more expensive
and that real estate values will decline and many other possible
downsides. News1.net recommends that the entire congestion pricing
plan be permanently abandoned.
February
5, 2024 The U.S. Department of Justice and the Attorney General of
the United States has issued a scathing report on both President Joe
Biden keeping secret documents as well as President Joe Biden's
cognitive ability. At one point the 332 page report refers to
president Biden as an old man with poor memory.
February
5, 2024 South Australian court rules employers who mandated Covid
vaccines can be held liable for injuries. So it begins. It is perhaps
only a matter of time that similar rulings will happen in the USA.
February
5, 2024 King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer. The nature
of his cancer was not disclosed, however there is a photograph of the

be successful in trying to take back that region.
January
19, 2024 Japan has landed on the Moon with a space craft called
"Slim" or Smart Lander for Investigating Moon. Japan has
become the fifth country to land a craft on the Moon. Prior to this
achievement, The Soviet Union was the first to land (or crash) a
human made craft in 1959, followed by soft landings by again the
Soviet Union, followed by the United States, and many years later,
China and India. The United States is said to be the first to land
people on the Moon on July 20, 1969.

Swiss update. Switzerland
is beautiful, with its spectacular natural beauty and some of it's
architecture, but if you rent a car, be very careful of their speed
cameras. Going just 2km (1.5 miles per hour) above the speed limit
can result in hefty fines. Switzerland today, is not the monolithic,
sophisticated culture it was, just a few years ago. Much has changed.
They have allowed in significant immigration that has changed the
original Swiss culture.
January
17, 2024 The United States Army has removed it's highly
controversial LGBT recruitment commercial that it put out in 2022
amid drastically reduced number of new recruits.
January
17, 2024 "Having children is saving the world" said Elon
Musk. This phrase is now being used on a billboard by a diaper
company, in Times Square. It is true that at 3:30PM, most American
playgrounds are empty and very few couples are getting married and
having families. This is an industrial world phenomenon. The cause of
this is complex. Women are encouraged to seek careers first, and
often this means that they lose the opportunity to meet a man to have
a family with. Further, some say that general selfishness prevents
families, while others say that the collapse in the relative standard
of living and salaries in the industrial world, are to blame. In the
United States, men often think twice before getting married since
there is a perception that the court systems are anti-men and if a
divorce should occur, men are forced to pay significant amounts of
money to women under the guise of excessive child support.
January
17, 2024 Photographs of United Airlines CEO, Mr. Scot Kirby, dressed
as a woman, have been circulating on social media sites. This writer
was on a flight from Tokyo to New York in June, 2024, and noticed
what is believed to have been a Transgender Stewardess.
January
17, 2024 The World Economic Forum meeting in Davos Switzerland is
advocating greater news censorship in the guise of reducing
"Mis-information". Be confident that News1.net should be
the goal post in news accuracy. Further, we are willing to assist
other news agencies to censor all news that we do not agree with.
January
17, 2024 Pope Francis sent a message to the World Economic Forum
meeting in Davos Switzerland praising their goals. His message is
somewhat unusual in that he did not mention religion, or Jesus and
nor did he mention abortion which is strongly advocated by the WEF.

the World Economic Forum. Estimates say the protestors numbered over
300,000 people.

vacate order to the synagogue with the illegal tunnel. The buildings
department has ordered that an engineer be hired to determine how to
upgrade a structure and if necessary, fill in the illegal tunnel.
January
9, 2024 Illegally dug 60 foot long tunnel between the headquarters
of the Jewish Chabad Lubavitch global headquarters in Crown Heights
Brooklyn and a smaller adjacent building. The tunnel was apparently
dug by radical, young Orthodox Jews from Israel to expand the size of
the synagogue, without permission of the Rabbi or the higher ups.
When the tunnel was discovered, the Rabbi ordered that the tunnel be
filled and the young radicals objected. Police were called and a riot
ensued with a number of young Orthodox men being arrested. This is an
evolving story.

4, 2024 Reports/rumors have been floating around the Ukraine stating
that the Ukrainian government is considering exempting high earners
from military draft. During the U.S. Civil War, it was possible for a
drafted person to be exempt from military service in the North, if
they could find someone to take their place or if they paid a fee of
$200. In the 1860's, $200 was the average yearly income for the owner
of a farm.
