I'd turn this into a political espionage thriller where the senator and Person A are both knowingly involved in the conspiracy, but their precise roles remain concealed until the final act.

The senator's former CIA background, Person A's government connections, the foreign minister's position and the president's unexpected return all become central to the story.

# THE RETURN

# COMING SOON

Everyone has a public position. Everyone has a private agenda.

# The underlying story

I'd give each conspirator a different motivation:

- Person B – The political architect: A former intelligence officer who believes the foreign country's political direction threatens US strategic interests. Now a senator, they have political influence and an established international network.

- Person A – The institutional connector: An NGO professional with extensive government connections who is personally and politically invested in the foreign minister's ambitions.

- The foreign minister – The domestic power broker: The person seeking to replace the president and secure control of the government.

- The president – The unexpected survivor: His return destroys the assumptions on which the conspiracy depended.

The most interesting twist would be that the public Q&A was never intended to look suspicious. It was a genuine conference appearance, but Person A and Person B were both knowingly involved in the wider political conspiracy.

I'd keep the precise mechanics of their conspiracy offscreen and let the investigation, conflicting accounts and eventual revelations drive the suspense.

The central question of the film: When the president returns, does he uncover the entire conspiracy, or does he only discover the people who were expendable enough to be exposed?

EU budget rules push Belgian government to brink of collapse

Prime Minister Bart De Wever has sought to resign after coalition talks failed over cuts and taxes while military spending continues to rise

Published 2 Nov, 2026 14:00

Belgium’s government has been pushed to the brink of collapse by a budget battle under EU spending rules. Prime Minister Bart De Wever submitted his resignation to King Philippe on Monday morning after negotiations on budget cuts failed over the weekend.

De Wever and his coalition partners have spent months arguing over roughly €10 billion ($11.2 billion) in cuts and additional revenue. Overnight talks ended without agreement, leaving the government struggling to meet Brussels’ demands while protecting public servicesand financing higher military expenditure.

The Royal Palace subsequently announced that King Philippe has postponed a decision on De Wever’s resignation and will begin consultations with the leaders of the governing parties starting Tuesday. The prime minister is due back at the palace on Friday.

Brussels demands savings as arms spending rises

De Wever’s request comes as the conservative, liberal, socialist, and centrist partners of his ruling coalition have consistently failed to agree on who should pay for repairing the country’s budget, which has been under EU supervision since 2024.

Belgium’s deficit reached 5.2% of GDP last year, against the EU’s 3% ceiling. Its debt has also climbed above 110% of GDP, far beyond the bloc’s 60% reference level, prompting Brussels to demand limits on spending growth and a correction by 2029.

Belgium is among several member states facing such proceedings, including France, Italy, and Poland.

De Wever and his liberal partners have proposed to resolve the crisis through spending cuts, including in healthcare, while socialist and centrist parties demand higher taxes on the wealthy instead. The prime minister has also warned of an “interest snowball” in which Belgium could end up having to take out new loans just to service existing debt.

Military spending, however, has continued to rise with the government reining in benefits and public sector pay. The EU has also relaxed its budget rules to give Belgium more room to spend on its armed forces.

Public pushback

The spending cuts and rising living costs have sparked repeated mass protests across Belgium, bringing tens of thousands onto the streets. Recent unrest has included clashes with law enforcement, burning barricades, tear gas, and water cannons.

Protesters have demanded protection for wages, pensions, and public services, with critics contrasting the cuts with the billions being spent on weapons and rejecting the alleged Russian threat being used by Brussels to justify rearmament….. continued

Austria investigates suspected Ukrainian spies – media

Two operatives were reportedly detained in Vienna as rumors flew that Kiev had ordered the killing of a former top prosecutor

Published 2 Nov, 2026 06:30

Austria has launched an espionage investigation after two Ukrainian military intelligence operatives were detained in Vienna, the Austrian newspaper Kurier reported on Saturday.

The report comes after former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, who fled to Austria in September, alleged that a team had been sent to kill him on orders from Ukraine’s presidential office.

According to Kurier, the head of the Artan Group, a special operations unit within Ukraine’s military intelligence agency (HUR), was spotted at the Park Hyatt hotel in Vienna. The man, identified as Viktor T., reportedly told Austrian security officials that he was on vacation. The unit was originally established to carry out operations in Russia but has also been accused of involvement in plots to assassinate “Ukrainian defectors,” the newspaper said.

Kravchenko and Ukrainian media identified the Artan commander as Viktor Torkotyuk, known by his callsign Titan.

On October 5, Austrian police reportedly arrested two operatives under Torkotyuk’s command who were carrying surveillance equipment. Investigators initially believed that one of the men had rented a car in Vienna together with Yaroslav Bondarenko, a cameraman working with Ukrainska Pravda investigative journalist Mikhail Tkach. Subsequent findings, however, indicated that Bondarenko had been mistaken for someone else.

Tkach and Bondarenko were detained on October 8 and released the following day. Tkach said he had been trying to locate Kravchenko as part of a journalistic investigation and denied any wrongdoing.

Read more WATCH moment bomb explodes in Monaco assassination attempt on Ukrainian millionaire

The Vienna Public Prosecutor’s Office said the journalists had been detained because investigators suspected they were conducting surveillance at a location also monitored by the two men already in custody. Prosecutors later said the suspicion against the journalists could not be substantiated.

Kravchenko fled Ukraine after the country’s Western-backed anti-corruption agencies, NABU and SAPO, launched an investigation into allegations that his subordinates had protected fraudulent call centers. He accused anti-corruption investigators of abusing their powers and claimed the case was politically motivated. Both agencies rejected his allegations.

The former prosecutor general has also drawn parallels with a bombing in Monaco earlier this year that targeted Ukrainian businessman Vadim Yermolayev. The explosion injured Yermolayev, his teenage son and his partner.

Two men linked to Ukrainian intelligence, active-duty HUR officer Vladislav Reut and former Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) officer Vitaly Zhikovich, were subsequently arrested over the killing of Anastasia Berezovskaya, who was filmed planting the bomb in Monaco and later found shot dead in Ukraine.

In an October interview with the BBC, Zhikovich claimed that senior HUR officials had authorized the Monaco operation.

Moscow has long accused Kiev of carrying out terrorist attacks abroad. Following the Monaco bombing, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova argued that Western governments “could no longer control the monster they had created.”

BREAKING! The company that owns The Learjet 60 that supposedly crashed in Palm Beach is mostly owned by BLACKROCK & Vanguard! -No SINGLE owner!

SOMETHING is Very Fishy about this crash!

READ THIS! 👇

-The FAA registry lists the registered owner of N722BD as LR60271 LLC, 1209 N Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

–That address is the Corporation Trust Center (CT Corporation / The Corporation Trust Company), a commercial registered-agent service used by hundreds of thousands of companies.

-The Corporation Trust Center is operated by CT Corporation, which is owned by the Dutch company Wolters Kluwer which operates the building and provides the registered-agent service. The center itself is a high-volume corporate services address, not a special or restricted facility tied to any particular industry or individual.

Wolters Kluwer is listed on the Amsterdam exchange (ticker WKL) and has no parent company or controlling shareholder. Ownership is widely distributed:

Institutions hold roughly 56% of shares.

The largest single holder is BlackRock, Inc., with approximately 7.4% (about 16.4 million shares in recent filings).

Vanguard is next, at roughly 4.3%.

Other sizable holders include Amundi, FMR LLC (Fidelity), Independent Franchise Partners, UBS Asset Management, Massachusetts Financial Services, and Norges Bank Investment Management (Norwegian sovereign fund).

The general public and other holders account for the remaining ~43%.

Insiders hold a negligible fraction (under 0.3%).

No individual, family, or private entity controls the company. BlackRock is the largest known shareholder but does not hold a controlling stake.

Trump Vows to Protect Elon Musk From Political Persecution If Democrats Take Congress — Will Consider Pre-Emptive Pardons(VIDEO)

by Ben Kew Nov. 2, 2026 9:45 am

President Donald Trump has vowed to protect Elon Musk as Democrats openly plot investigations into both him and his companies if they regain control of Congress.

Speaking to the New York Post’s Miranda Devine, Trump dismissed Democratic threats against Musk as political bluster but made clear he would intervene if they escalated.

“It won’t happen. It’s talk,” Trump said. “But if it is talk, we’ll have to protect them.”

Trump also said that he would consider preemptive pardons for administration officials and allies if Democrats attempted to prosecute them after he leaves office.

Watch the clip below:

The comments follow weeks of escalating threats against Musk, whose companies include Tesla, SpaceX, Starlink and artificial intelligence giant xAI.

Democrats are already preparing major investigations into Musk and his businesses if they seize control of Congress in Tuesday’s midterm elections.

Various left-wing figures, including economist Paul Krugman and former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, have suggested a Democratic administration should seize Musk’s companies.

Musk became a major target of the left after helping Trump launch the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as well as his status as the Republican Party’s richest and most generous donor.

Trump has previously defended Musk against the threatened probes.

“Elon’s a brilliant guy,” Trump said last month. “We have to protect our brilliant people because we don’t have too many of them.”

Trump went on to describe Musk as one of America’s rare “geniuses,” arguing that protecting innovators is important to maintaining America’s technological dominance.

Musk himself has made clear that he will not go down quietly.

“Live by the sword, die by the sword,” Musk warned after reports emerged about Democratic plans to investigate him.

“Those who pick fights with me should understand that I will find out who is really pulling the strings and come for them, not just their puppets.”

NASA Spacecraft Becomes First To Enter Jupiter's Trojan Asteroid RegionAfter its encounter with Eurybates, Lucy will continue its journey to study other Jupiter Trojan asteroids

Nov 02, 2026 17:15 IST

NASA's Lucy spacecraft has become the first spacecraft to enter a region of asteroids that share Jupiter's orbit around the Sun.

The spacecraft reached this region after travelling more than 2.2 billion miles since its launch on October 16, 2021. Its mission is to study these ancient space objects, known as Jupiter Trojan asteroids, according to NASA.

The region contains thousands of asteroids that move around the Sun along with Jupiter. Scientists hope that studying these asteroids will help them understand how the solar system formed and how its planets reached their present positions.

What Is The Jupiter Trojan Asteroid Region

The Jupiter Trojan asteroids are found in two large groups around special points in Jupiter's orbit called Lagrange points 4 and 5. These points are also known as L4 and L5.

The first group of asteroids travels ahead of Jupiter, near L4, while the second group follows behind the planet, near L5. Both groups are held in place by the combined gravitational pull of the Sun and Jupiter.

These asteroids are about 484 million miles away from Jupiter, which is nearly the same distance as Jupiter is from the Sun.

The asteroids are separated from each other by an average distance of more than 6 million miles. Because of this, they appear as tiny points of light against the background of stars when viewed from Lucy.

The spacecraft's first close encounter with a Trojan asteroid, Eurybates, is planned for August 11, 2027. Scientists are preparing the spacecraft, its instruments and the mission team for this meeting.

Lucy will spend a few hours studying Eurybates up close.

Which Asteroids Will Lucy Visit Next

After its encounter with Eurybates, Lucy will continue its journey to study other Jupiter Trojan asteroids.

Its planned visits include:

Polymele: September 2027

Leucus: April 2028

Orus: November 2028

In 2030, the spacecraft will return to Earth for its third and final gravity assist. This will help send it towards Jupiter's second group of Trojan asteroids.

In March 2033, Lucy is expected to study two asteroids, Patroclus and Menoetius, which form a binary pair.

Why Is The Lucy Mission Important

Scientists believe that studying Jupiter's Trojan asteroids will help them improve their understanding of how the solar system's planets formed about 4.5 billion years ago.

As Lucy travels farther from the Sun, it is adjusting to lower temperatures and less sunlight. The spacecraft is designed to work in this region, which is more than five times farther from the Sun than Earth is.

NASA has reported that the spacecraft and its instruments continue to work as expected as preparations for its first asteroid encounter move forward.

QUESTIONS:

1: What camera is recording this? Backup camera are usually located on the outside of the car near the bumper. Why does this person have a rear-faing camera in their car and why was it recording footage? Some rare people may have that for CYI in case of an accident, but it is at least a strange coincidence for that exact person to also be driving directly past this explosion as it happens.

2: The plane simply looks fake or inserted to me. The explosion looks real, but the frames of the incoming plane immediately strike me as having as being both too clear between the frames and also having a digital looking blur when paused on each individual frame. Whether or not that instinct is correct, I can't help but get a sense of unreality from it, as if the plane was blurred frame by frame instead of having a higher degree of blur between the frames.

It's really the camera that's bugging me. Who even has a camera like that inside the rear window of their car, let alone has it recording, and also happens to be in that exact location? Very strange.

Texas AG Ken Paxton Announces Arrests of Convicted Felons Accused of ILLEGALLY VOTING in 2026 Election — More Investigations Underway Just Days Before Midterms!

by Jim Hᴏft Nov. 2, 2026 9:30 am

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced the arrests of multiple convicted felons accused of illegally casting ballots in the 2026 election. According to an official press release issued Saturday, October 31,Paxton’s Election Integrity Unit launched an investigation after receiving a citizen complaint alleging that convicted felons who were incarcerated, on parole, or on probation had cast ballots in Harris County, Texas.

What investigators reportedly uncovered was serious enough to trigger arrest warrants. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice confirmed that multiple individuals were still on parole when they voted, making them ineligible under Texas election law.

And now, Paxton’s office says the investigation is far from over.

The investigation began October 27 after a concerned citizen submitted information suggesting that individuals legally prohibited from voting had participated in the 2026 election.

According to the attorney general’s office, investigators immediately began examining the allegations.

Analysts with the Election Integrity Unit reviewed voter registration records, verified the identities of the individuals involved, and determined whether ballots had been cast.

The findings were subsequently forwarded to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice to determine whether the individuals were legally eligible to vote.

State corrections officials confirmed that multiple individuals remained under parole supervision when their ballots were cast.

Under Texas law, individuals convicted of felonies generally cannot vote until they have completed their sentences, including applicable parole or probation, unless their voting rights have otherwise been restored.

On October 30, authorities obtained arrest warrants in Montgomery County. Officers from the Texas attorney general’s office subsequently took the identified suspects into custody.

The attorney general’s announcement did not disclose the precise number of arrests, the defendants’ identities, or the criminal charges filed against each individual. Paxton made clear that the arrests were only the latest development in his office’s ongoing crackdown on alleged election crimes.

In his October 31 statement, Paxton announced that his office had arrested convicted felons accused of unlawfully voting and confirmed that additional allegations remained under investigation.

He pledged to continue protecting the lawful votes of Texans. The announcement comes at a particularly sensitive moment, with the November 3 midterm elections just days away.

This is hardly the first time Paxton’s office has pursued allegations of illegal voting. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, in September 2026, Paxton announced the arrests of seven foreign nationals accused of election-related offenses connected to the 2024 presidential election.

Nobody who has actually had to be on the receiving end of harassment from law enforcement wants cops of any kind anywhere near their polling station, let alone masked secret police.

Fucking cop worship bullshit. Obviously any kind of law enforcement placed in or near a polling station is intended as intimidation. Anybody who's spent a night in a jail cell over some bullshit knows that. Bonus points if they made you wear the pickle suit.

Trump administration asks Supreme Court to hear California mail-in ballot appeal

Published Mon, Nov 2 2026 11:34 AM EST Dan Mangan

Key Points

• The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to take its appeal in a case where it has unsuccessfully sought to block California from counting the mail-in ballots of about 20,000 voters whom the Department of Justice suggests may not be U.S. citizens.

• The DOJ’s petition to the Supreme Court came three days after the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals rejected the department’s bid to block a lower federal court’s injunction, which allowed the ballots to be counted.

• The petition comes a day before Election Day.

The Trump administration on Monday asked the Supreme Court to take its appeal in a case where it has unsuccessfully sought to block California from counting the mail-in ballots of about 20,000 voters whom the Department of Justice suggests may not be U.S. citizens.

The DOJ sued the state of California on Oct. 15 in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. The civil complaint sought to prevent state election officials from tabulating mail-in ballots “from likely non-citizens in the upcoming federal election until the voter’s citizenship status can be determined.”

The DOJ previously had given Los Angeles County officials a thumb drive containing names of voters the department suggested could be non-citizens, who by law are barred from voting in federal elections.

Last Wednesday, Judge David Carter denied the DOJ’s request for an order the California officials set aside mail ballots from alleged non-citizens on a list prepared by the Department of Homeland Security, and not count their votes until their citizenship is confirmed.

“This case is about the right of every American citizen to vote in a free and fair election,” Carter said in his ruling.

“Never before in American history has the federal government, on the eve of an election, sought to coerce a state and local government to abandon their own Constitutional elections procedures and bend to the will of the Executive Branch,” Carter wrote. “In bringing this lawsuit, the Executive would have this Court believe that it reigns as a sole sovereign. But California and its people are sovereign, too.”

The DOJ then appealed that ruling to the 9th Circuit, which denied the appeal.

I bought one of these from Amazon in 2015:

"Dash Cam, Z-Edge Dual Lens Car Camera, Car Video Recorder for Vehicles Front and Rear Dvr, 5.0 Inch Screen, 1080P with 16G Micro SD Included"

It had front and rear internally mounted cameras, recorded continuously every time the ignition was turned on, and simply overwrote older files on a 16G Micro SD. It was simple to install.

Judge tosses DOJ case against ex-FBI officials accused of lying about Hunter Biden probe: Reports

Published Mon, Nov 2 202611:42 AM EST

Key Points

• A federal judge in Washington dismissed the Department of Justice’s case accusing two former FBI officials of lying to Congress about investigations into Hunter Biden, multiple news outlets reported.

• The judge blasted the Department of Justice, saying the situation “cannot be described as anything other than weaponization.”

• He accused the DOJ of a “slapdash job” prosecuting ex-officials Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides, suggesting it rushed the case ahead of the midterm election.

A federal judge on Monday blasted the Department of Justice for “weaponization” as he dismissed its case accusing two former FBI officials of lying to Congress about investigations into Hunter Biden, multiple news outlets reported.

Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui, in a hearing in U.S. District Court in Washington, reportedly tore into the DOJ over its “slapdash job” prosecuting ex-officials Nikki Floris and Bradley Benavides, saying he was “deeply troubled by what has happened here.”

Faruqui said the government lacked probable cause and failed to present evidence that the officials’ statements before the House Judiciary Committee in 2023 were knowingly false, MS NOW reported.

He also accused the DOJ of wrongly rushing the case ahead of the midterm election. The situation “cannot be described as anything other than weaponization,” he said, according to MS NOW.

The judge even apologized to the government’s lawyers, calling it “incredibly unfair” that they were assigned to defend the flawed case.

“This does not feel like an investigation,” Faruqui reportedly added. “It feels like a broken one-wish willow obsession.”

The DOJ did not immediately respond to CNBC’s request for comment.

Attorneys for Floris and Benavides praised the judge’s decision outside the courthouse later Monday morning.

“This case should never have been brought. The government had no case, as the judge just laid out,” a lawyer for Floris said, slamming the prosecution as a “spaghetti-at-the-wall, Hunter-Biden-conspiracy fever dream.”

A lawyer for Benavides said they hope the DOJ will not try to keep the case alive by seeking an indictment before a grand jury “where they get to be behind closed doors and get to shape the narrative, and we are unable to present our side.”

The DOJ did not take that step when they unveiled the allegations against Floris and Benavides on Oct. 23.

Rather, despite the alleged misconduct taking place years earlier, prosecutors acquired a criminal complaint, which only requires a judge’s signature. Criminal complaints are often used to obtain arrest warrant in situations where prosecutors need to move quickly.

Faruqui had flagged that circumstance as unusual, and last week refused to sign off on a superseding complaint that added an obstruction charge against the two ex-officials.

“I’m concerned with your view as to what the law is,” the judge told the prosecutors in a hearing last Tuesday. “Why today, on this one case, have you changed the entire history of how you charge cases?”

>I'm American… ICE shouldn't be anywhere near polling stations.

ICE has been caught multiple times sweeping up American citizens and holding them illegally in detention centers for multiple days, as well as generally brutalizing and shooting people and then lying about the circumstances after the fact even when footage is immediately available sowing that they are lying.

They've murdered at least two people in cold blood on camera and have yet to be prosecuted for it.

Trump hired a bunch of rent-a-cop MAGA morons and set them loose on the public and it ha not gone well. They don't belong anywhere anymore unless it's a prison cell for some of them, let alone a polling station.

Alaska Sen. Sullivan says he’ll accept election results, slams Peltola campaign’s reported recruitment of 2nd Sullivan

Published Sun, Nov 1 202612:03 Garrett Downs

Key Points

• Alaska Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan said he would accept Tuesday’s election result even if he loses.

• DOJ seeks to delay certification only if Sullivan loses and reallocating every Daniel J. Sullivan vote to the incumbent would change the ranked-choice result.

• The New York Times reported that Mary Peltola’s campaign aides, lawyers and Democratic officials were involved in efforts to recruit spoiler candidates; Peltola’s campaign had denied it.

Alaska Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan said Sunday he would accept the results of Tuesday’s midterm elections, while slamming Democratic candidate Mary Peltola’s campaign for reportedly recruiting Dan J. Sullivan to run as a spoiler.

“No, I’m going to accept the election results,” Sullivan said on CNN’s “State of the Union” when asked whether he would accept the results only if he wins. President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice has sued Alaska, demanding the state not certify the election if the incumbent Republican loses.

Peltola has repeatedly denied any involvement with the second Sullivan. However, The New York Times reported last week that her campaign was directly involved with recruiting Dan J. Sullivan, a retired schoolteacher, to run as a spoiler.

Ballot-stacking is typically not illegal, and both parties have used it in past elections. Still, Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy ordered a criminal investigation into the alleged scheme. Alaska’s Supreme Court upheld Dan J. Sullivan’s place on the ballot during an earlier legal challenge.

Sullivan on CNN said that the Times report shows Peltola’s campaign, along with the Democratic Senate campaign arm, “recognizing they couldn’t run on their record, so they had to cheat.”

“I think a lot of Alaskans, even Democrats, are thinking she is not fit for office; she’s continually lying to the Alaskan people, and I guarantee you she’s lying right now,” Sullivan said.

Peltola denied any knowledge of the alleged scheme to draft a second Sullivan in an interview with KTUU on Friday.

“I honestly have no idea,” Peltola said. “This is offensive to me on a number of different levels; first of all, this is Alaska, we’re not in the business of tricking each other up here.”

“I’ve won statewide before, on my own merits, without any tricks involved; I know I can win again,” she said.

The stakes of the Alaska race are high. Democrats need to flip four seats while holding all currently Democratic seats to win a Senate majority. Alaska has emerged as a top opportunity for one of those flips.

The midterms will determine which party controls Congress for the remainder of Trump’s term in the White House.

Exclusive: NASA Astronaut Ellen Ochoa, the First Hispanic Woman in Space, is Getting Out the Vote

Nov 2, 2026, 5:00 AM EST

Ochoa and 100 others of her ilk in the nonpartisan Astronauts of America are helping preserve democracy in a variety of ways, including elections.

Ellen Ochoa has seen what few human beings ever have: a seemingly never-ending, vast universe from a perspective well beyond the world we call home.

But on Earth, she and hundreds of her fellow NASA astronauts are pushing to preserve something else: democracy.

Ochoa, the first Hispanic woman in space, is one of more than 100 astronauts who earlier this year joined Astronauts For America (AFA)—a nonpartisan organization aiming to affirm their commitment to the U.S. Constitution and principles of American constitutional democracy.

Tuesday's midterm elections are one piece of that larger effort.

Their "pledge" includes supporting what they describe as the foundational ideals of the nation—including equality, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the consent of the governed, the rule of law, and the separation of powers—and the shared responsibility of citizens to help preserve them.

That recognition of common aspirations and preserving such principles requires participation, responsibility, and a willingness to work together across differences, they say.

For those like Ochoa, who has reaped the benefits of being an American, she feels a duty to protect the "guardrails of democracy" that extend to neighbors talking to one another—or politicians reaching more across the aisle in one of the most polarized eras in U.S. history.

"It's really about supporting the values that we all took an oath to support when we went into government service, whether it was military or civilian," Ochoa, speaking from her Boise, Idaho, home, told Military.com. "I take those rights and responsibilities very seriously."

A Fight For Flight

Ochoa's journey from childhood to space admittedly "wasn't a straight line," and she compares that personal growth to her advocacy towards voting and democracy.

"Of course, for a long time, women didn't have the right to vote, and it wasn't until they got the right to vote that we were able to make changes in this country so that careers opened up," she said. "I was 11 when the Apollo 11 astronauts landed on the moon.

"But women weren't allowed to be astronauts. There weren't any astronauts of color. Nobody would have asked me at that point if I wanted to grow up and be an astronaut, or even a scientist, or an engineer, or a pilot."

When in high school, Ochoa took biology but no other science classes. She went to college thinking she'd major in music or business, but she developed an affinity for math.

Maybe most importantly, she was good at it and came to the realization that she could parlay her knowledge into a career path.

"Unfortunately, there was still a lot of, I would say, bias against women, and I'm also of a Hispanic background," Ochoa said.

"So when I went to talk to a professor in the electrical engineering department, it was clear he didn't want me in there at all, and told me he didn't think I'd be interested in what they did, and that it was a really difficult course of study.

"Fortunately, I talked to another professor in the physics department who was actually encouraging, and I ended up deciding to try physics and majored in it and minored in math.

And probably less than a year after I changed my major to physics [was] when NASA selected the first group of astronauts that included women and astronauts of color."

It won't. The news cycle merely becomes the new Overton Window and people will wake up as quickly or slowly as they are willing to wake up, just as it's always been. Attempting to shock the public awake would cause riots and mass hysteria which is why this is taking so long and why most of the people responsible were never actually going to face earthly justice. The plan doesn't "end" with some big "reveal." It's a slow and steady process of "make them panic, direct attention to those who panic so the public loses trust in them, rinse repeat" until the government is slowly purged of foreign influence. There is simply no constitutional scenario under which the events that happened in Saudi Arabia were ever going to happen here. The only reason it worked so well back int he day is because the deep state wasn't sure how far Trump could or would go. Now they know, and the tactic of "BOO!!! THE MILITARY IS GOING TO STAGE A COUP AND ARREST ALL OF YOU!!!" no longer works.

The Waste Land

By T. S. Eliot

I. The Burial of the Dead

April is the cruellest month, breeding

Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire, stirring

Dull roots with spring rain.

Winter kept us warm, covering

Earth in forgetful snow, feeding

A little life with dried tubers.

Summer surprised us, coming over the Starnbergersee

With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade,

And went on in sunlight, into the Hofgarten,

And drank coffee, and talked for an hour.

Bin gar keine Russin, stamm’ aus Litauen, echt deutsch.

And when we were children, staying at the archduke’s,

My cousin’s, he took me out on a sled,

And I was frightened. He said, Marie,

Marie, hold on tight. And down we went.

In the mountains, there you feel free.

I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter.

What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow

Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man,

You cannot say, or guess, for you know only

A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,

And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,

And the dry stone no sound of water. Only

There is shadow under this red rock,

(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),

And I will show you something different from either

Your shadow at morning striding behind you

Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;

I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

Frisch weht der Wind

Der Heimat zu

Mein Irisch Kind,
