The January 6th Footage Belongs to the People!
"Back, talking to Kevin McCullough, some of you know him as votes for damas. I too know him. As votes, but Kevin McCullough, let me ask you, you just mentioned that at least forget his name in the senator who looks like a turtle. What does that Schumer? McConnell, McConnell, the turtle man. I mean, I have to say, so he comes out and he chortles about how Tucker Carlson did this irresponsible thing by going against the official narrative. And then you have him and others, well, you have Schumer talking about that Murdoch should censor Tucker Carlson and it seems to me like the Murdoch brothers is an uday and kusa. I always forget their names. I think it's uday and kusa, the Murdoch sons, the sons of the tyrant. But it seems, did forbid Tucker Carlson from going further with this, which tells you really, really, really bad things about Fox News as it stands. There's been some changes at Fox and on the second night of coverage, Tucker did respond to Chuck Schumer, but he did not go any further with his reports. And I think you can read into that what you want to. I think that the interesting thing about this, if people are in question about the decline of what America freedoms look like, all you have to do is point to the Senate leader begging a Titan of private industry to take an action that in some way hides truth from the American people. Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell both need to understand that those hours of videotape don't belong to them. They don't belong to the senator to the house. Those hours of videotape of surveillance are surveillance of the people's house. It's our house.

New England, upstate New York, bracing for winter storm
"Parts of the northeast are being hit with a powerful winter storm. The national weather service says the storm could last into Wednesday for areas such as New England, upstate New York, northeastern Pennsylvania, and northern New Jersey, dumping heavy wet snow and unleashing strong winds, meteorologist Andrew Orson. Snowfall turtles that were going to see that with this particular storm will be among the highest that we've seen for this entire wear season. It has been below average for snowfall across the northeast this year. And so this no Easter will be very impactful because we haven't really seen a whole lot of snow. New York governor Kathy hochul already has warned that the storm could be deadly, and she's telling people in the affected areas to stay off the roads, the Albany area could get three feet of snow.

The Antichrist Administration With Benny Johnson
"Benny shifting gears here a little bit. You've been on top of this story. I haven't touched it or covered it at all. Let me tell you my little campus stuff and you know this to great detail and you've had some wonderful takes on it. The Garland hearing. Benny, what happened in the Garland hearing? So the public beating has not gone out of style, Charlie. That used to be tar and feather. It used to be running out of town on the rails and the old colonial days. For some odd reason we got rid of the stocks in the middle of the city. But the public beating exists today, just exists in the form of the congressional hearing. And Republicans delivered bombshell after blow after pistol whipping to Merrick Garland and that 70 year old man deserved it. That little keebler elf had his feet held to the fire and not just the fires that cooked the cookies and shot of the tree that he lives in, making cookies. He got burned yesterday. And it was bad. I listen, there was not a single stone left unturned. Hunter Biden, Joe Biden. Attacking Catholics attacking Christians. I think that was probably one of the harshest lines of questioning by Josh hawley. And Ted Cruz went after Kavanaugh, the Supreme Court Justices being threatened, a man wandering through Brett Kavanaugh's neighborhood with full tactical gear on, ready to kill him, admittedly. And the Justice Department doing absolutely nothing. So if you're a meemaw and you have a 25% American flag and the capital police usher you into the U.S. capitol, you get put on the terrorist watch list and you spend the rest of your life in jail. But if you are a man kitted out in tactical gear with deadly weapons and you go up to kill a Supreme Court Justice that was appointed by president Trump, you get a ticket to the chocolate factory, okay? You get to go to go to the candy shop. Merritt Garland kitten club. And look, the more laws the less justice. So Garland is choosing what laws to enforce based on his own political revenge. Look, Merrick Garland is a craven old man who is bitter. He's bitter he never became a Supreme Court Justice. He's bitter that seat remained open. Remember, Barack Obama put Garland up for that seat and the turtle to his great credit, Mitch McConnell refused to put it up for vote. It was one of the great things that the parliamentarian of the Senate from Kentucky ever did and he does deserve credit for it, and we won that shock election in 16 and Gorsuch filled the seat that Garland wanted.

A 'Hell' of a Question
"Scott furrow asked us he was the wonderful moderator, Eric metaxas and myself. And he asked about heaven and hell and I said something that I think I don't know how everybody reacted. There were thousand people there and obviously I never know how everybody reacts but I don't even know if the majority were comfortable with what I said. I don't know. I'm not saying they weren't. I'm sure many people listening, I'm sure that when the left wing that picks up this statement, they will broadcast that and they don't argue they mock, which is their intellectual level. I said, I hope there is a hell. Now, I didn't say I hope there's any turtle hell. It's not my, I don't know how long God keeps. I don't know if there's even a time. There's no time outside of this life at any event, so I don't know what eternal means in that instance. But anyway, all I know is, if people who do terrible things to other people are not punished, then God has made a truly evil world.

I think we have the B roll later on once the offer has been made and rocky is watching himself on TV. Do the press conference about being Italian stallion. From that moment in the film I'm not kidding guys, go home and watch it. Before the film, rocky is grungy, ugly, oily hair. She's got the ugly glasses on. As soon as he becomes the contender, he starts getting handsome, combs his hair, you never see her glasses again for the next 50 minutes, her glasses have disappeared, and she starts to look sexy. It's a little, it's a little bit artificial. It's a little on the nose, Chris. No, no, I don't think so. I don't think it's artificial. It is on the nose. It's on the nose. But no, I don't think it's artificial. I'll tell you why. This is a story, like I said, it's an underdog story, but it's a story of two underdogs, really, right?

Eric Discusses Miraculous Stories From His Book 'Fish Out of Water'
"We move on to a more substantive question? Question number two, fish out of water. Your life miracles on last page explain snapping turtle in Central Park. All right, well, my book fish out of water, which is coming out in paperback. March 7th with the most happiest looking cover I've ever seen. It's really beautiful. It is nice. The first cover of the hard cover. It's a picture of my dad on the cover, which was taken by my mom when they were dating. In 1957, or might have been 58, they went to the Statue of Liberty and my mother took a picture of my father in front of the Statue of Liberty. It's so beautiful. It's the cover. But it's coming out in paperback. In any event, the book fish out of water takes me from my birth up until my 25th birthday when I had this dramatic miraculous experience of Jesus coming into my life unannounced. And on the last part of the book, I mentioned all the things the miracles that have happened to me since which I want to write about in the sequel, which I've begun to write about. And one of them involves a snapping turtle in Central Park. Yeah. And that is a story that may be and I'm not kidding, Alvin, you and I could do a miracle Monday where I tell some of these stories because it's a complicated story. I can't tell it now, but everything on the last pages of my book fish out of water. Every one of those teases. This happened and that happened, I will tell those stories at some point on the air here, but for sure in this next book, because they are amazing. I mean, when I say miracle, I don't use the word lightly. I don't mean like, well, it could have been a miracle. When you hear the story, either I'm lying or I'm hallucinating, or it's a miracle. This is not like something seems to have been miraculous. But the story that the snapping turtle and Central Park is so insane, it's one of the most insane things that I've ever experienced. And I was like speechless for days. I

Hawaii's Kilauea volcano erupts again, summit crater glows
"Hawaii's kilauea volcano is erupting again inside its summit crater. The U.S. geological survey reports that the big island of Hawaii's most active volcano kilauea is stirring again, less than one month after the crater and its larger neighbor mauna loa stopped releasing lava. Inside Hawaii volcanos national park, scientists detected a glow in webcam images at kilauea's summit and footage gathered overnight shows a steaming glowing lava Lake in the caldera. Kilauea last erupted for 16 months starting in September of 2021, and when mauna loa erupted for the first time in 38 years on November 27th, Hawaii had two volcanos erupting side by side. The mauna loa lava flow got within two miles of a major highway before both caldera's quieted down, a kilauea eruption in 2018 destroyed more than 700 residences, adding hundreds of acres of new land, but a racing protected tidal pools that were popular with visitors and sea turtles.

Newt Gingrich Tears Into Republicans Over Speaker Vote
"Gingrich has some wisdom to share. That has made some headlines. Let's play cut 26, please. You know, Lincoln in his first inaugural warned that the problem of secession is once you establish that principle, then everybody can secede from everybody. These 5 people need to take a deep breath tonight and ask themselves, are they really want to send a signal that every 5 people in the conference can screw up everything for whatever reason? They were three of them one end and presented Kevin McCarthy with 30 some different demands. Most of them involving personal advancement and in a free society, you can not just as you can't give into terrorists and you can't give in to hostage takers. You can't allow them to take the conference hostage and win.

But let me continue to build out an argument that I floated the base has been looking for a pressure release valve ever since the midterms. We had our hopes up for Carrie Lake. We had our hopes up to win seats in the Senate. We had hopes up for Herschel Walker and for Blake masters. And so we had a very disappointing showing in the midterms. We had a disappointing showing in the Georgia runoff. And then how does Mitch McConnell the turtle thank us? How does D.C. act after a disappointing midterms?

And so I decided to become a conservative and I'm not sure which way to turn with his useless as they're becoming. Mitch McConnell, I guess what is nickname was the turtle? I guess that ought to be called the weasel now, but I'm not really sure, but I just wanted to touch base. We're here in Georgia. So we know we can't call our senators and get anything out of them.

The Disgusting Omnibus Abomination
"Is a disgusting omnibus Bill that is being passed to the U.S. Senate right now because look, the senators, they have a really tough life. They got to get home for Christmas. Democrats do not have the votes to be able to pass this omnibus bill without the assistance of Republicans. They do not have the votes. But Republicans want to get home for Christmas too, and not only do they want to fund the government, they want to have a 9 month extension robbing the new Republican House majority, giving another tens of billions of dollars to Ukraine. Let's get the exact number so I'm precise. Funding January 6th prosecutions and more. Another $45 billion to Ukraine, $45 billion to Ukraine.

How many days after his birth what they have done this? 8 days. 8 days. Again, we read this in scripture. We tend to gloss over it like, okay, but you think, wow, they took these people off as they say, well, they were poor. They were poor and that's why they offered to turtle doves. Well, turtle doves were also offered by travelers because they couldn't carry bigger animals to be sacrificed. Mary and Joseph were traveling. So they fulfilled the law. And at the end of 40 days, after Mary's period of purification, the very last verse in Lou chapter two says the entire holy family packed up and went home to Nazareth. They left.

So anyway, now you've got now you've got conservative talk radio and the big boys are now siding in with Kevin McCarthy. But Kevin McCarthy is that still does not make him a conservative. It makes him an establishment Republican, a rhino, which is what he's been all along.

"turtle" Discussed on UN News
"Do you think she'll give up? It depends on how desperate she is. I think she may give up now. She's going back towards the scene now. Primary threat no is. And that can be directly linked to climate change impacts, as well as hostel development, coastal armoring. So it is really a multi dimensional threat. I'm Connor Lennon and you're listening to the lid is on from the United Nations. This episode is the last now four part miniseries looking at the issues facing the marine environment surrounding the eastern Caribbean island nation of Barbados. And some of the projects that are trying to address the balance. In the last episode, we went into the water to see the successful efforts being made by an organization called corral, which, with support from the UN, is growing coral varieties in ocean nurseries and proving that, under the right conditions, it is possible to restore the reef. Another group receiving UN backing is the Barbados sea turtle project. A research and conservation organization which began in the 1980s at the university of the West Indies. It has been successful in restoring the turtle population on the island, despite a host of challenges. The group has received support from the small grants program of the global environmental facility which provides finance for several initiatives implemented by the UN development program. In the southwest of the island, there's a place called the boardwalk. This is an area full of restaurants and bars that come right up to the beach, a testament to the central importance of tourism to the barbadian economy. There I met Carlo Daniel, the project's field director who took me through the group's activities and explained why it's important to preserve sea turtles on Barbados. Sea turtles play a very well researched and recognized role in ecosystem maintenance and stabilization. Hartsville is in particular feed on sponge, which is in direct competition with coral for space on the reef, so they help to maintain our coral reefs. And any island which depends on white sandy beaches as well as natural wheat breaks that re create when we're affected by extreme weather events, knows the importance of the coral reef. So hawksbill turtles were quite close to extinction. So I think it was recognized globally around the late 1990s is also when the trade and torture shell, which is really hot. Spill shell was banned as well. So I think there was around that time a global recognition that we could not continue on the trajectory that we were following when it comes to hawksbills or we were going to lose the species. On the conservation side of things, we have a 24 hour hotline that we operate. This hot lane will operate 365 days a year. So even though the nesting season goes from the 1st of June to the 15th of November, every single day of the year we answer the hot lane, our sponsor hotline calls. Persons are able to call to report emergencies where adult turtles are hatchling turtles. Juveniles are in need of rescue. But they also call to report turtle sightings and to report tracks. And sometimes just to report things that they observe that they don't think is right. So they see certain types of activities on the beach, they may call to report those as well. In addition to the hot lane, we have patrol teams that man that hotline because we get a lot of calls. During the peak nesting season, we can get, I would say up to 15. Unique calls a night and there's still only 8 hours early in the night, so it can take quite a bit. So we have an amazing team of volunteers every year. And our team is really a really good composition because you have a nice mix of young people who are still in university. We have retirees who have a bit more time. And then we have persons who are working, but they've managed to find the time between their responsibilities and between their jobs to still come out and do what I believe they think is important work. So at Nate, we have three teams out. So in any 24 hour period from the 1st of June to the 15th of November, we have at least 8 persons working to answer hot lane calls. We standardize the patrol effort. So we have the same team of people on that beach for four months. Every single year, and they their objective is to walk the beach every hour from 7 30 p.m. to 4 a.m. in the morning. And to see and record every single turtle that comes up. So that at the end of the nesting season, we have, we know that we've seen hopefully like 95 to 99% of the turtle sat nested. Because our effort is consistent across years, then any fluctuation in the number of turtles that we're seeing is likely due to changes in the nesting population. Carlo Daniel field director of the Barbados sea turtle project. Sinéad Nichols is one of those volunteers Carla mentioned, and she spent many nights staying up patrolling the beaches and looking for turtles. Right now we are on the south coast border and as we're currently doing we are walking the beach to see if we see any turtle activity. You can see turtles along the south coast and the West Coast, but this is an area that one of the teachers that we patrol. So we will see any activity that we have. Interested in conservation and this is a way for me to be a part of it. I got interested in it through the university of the West Indies and then front time I started I enjoyed it so I think it's a passion that got me going. So you've saved lots of turtles. Yes. Even in a night I have released more than a thousand hashtags. Oh, well, in one night. Yes. Wow. One particular area of the beach, one time we got 800 hatchets. We had to try to get them to save air beach to release them. Barbados sea turtle project volunteer Shane Nichols. Carlo Daniel explained that whilst the project has had success in bringing up the turtle numbers, they're still at risk for a host of reasons. Primary threat, no. Is habitat loss. And that can be directly linked to climate change impacts. As well as coastal development, coastal armoring, and so on. So it is really a multi dimensional threat. The other issue that turtles face is temperature. Because sea turtles are well sea turtle hatchlings. The sex is determined by temperature. And that temperature is sex determination, skews toward females. As the temperature increases. So there are many beaches around the world and in Barbados as well. They've been feminized..

"Places like the world wildlife organization are working with fisheries to create new technology and other ways to fish without causing bycatch all of our choices and actions not only affect us. They affect others to. If we see a spider in the house we can catch it and let it outside instead of harming it. There's a belief called a himself that comes from ancient india. A him sir. Means not harming anyone or any living creature even the smallest insect that means making kind choices when you're dealing with others and also making kind choices for yourself and what is a kind choice. It's taking a moment to think before you do. This is where. Mindfulness can really help the more you practice pausing and focusing on your breathing and what's happening at the time you'll get better making that little space between thought and action and that little space. That pause can be the difference between making kind choice and making a choice that might hurt someone or hurt ourselves. This takes a lot of practice and it's something that we all practice even when we become grownups every time you stop to take deep breaths when you feel stressed or practice a different mindfulness activity. You're practicing how to make that space that pause and that will help you make good choices kind choices kind choices also means thinking how it will make others feel if i do this. How will it make them feel. How would i feel if it was me and we should also make kind choices for ourselves to even if it choice might make someone else very happy. If it's a choice that will hurt us or isn't good for us. Then we need to think about it for example if someone asks me if they can keep my very favorite toy i know that if i say yes they'll be super happy but i know i would be sad because it's my favorite so what would be the kind choice. Maybe instead of giving it to them. I could let them play with the toy for awhile instead. These kinds of situations can be very tough sometimes and what might work for. You might not work for me. And if you're ever not sure about what the kind choice would be talked to a grownup that you trust about it. Let's come back to the surface now.

Would you give this book to a first time Raider in like this is what you're gonna wear beak with to get into comic books. It's push ask only. Because i grew up with the animated series movies so reading this it was kinda shocked to me and i took from it what i wanted to take from it based on what had already known so if you were looking for something that could have like. One liners be interesting not have agree plot have really really the best villain and issue to one. I would probably have to say yes because if you read that whole for issue to you'd be doing yourself a justice at that point in time you're back to slacking lot. They baxter. Stockman gives Big generous thumbs up is not even a fly. You love 'em all right. Though baxter stockman still the fly on the wall sean. Would you recommend this to a first time. Coma greater is a go stab at the but world. That's tough one. Normally like familiarity with a franchise we talked about in the past tense to make things a little more accessible like someone who was reluctant to get into. Comex may be a little less reluctant if they already have some familiarity. If they'll agreeing superman they at least know about superman reading that man. They have some identity idea about batman because he's in the public consciousness cities. He's triggers so forms of media. But i think in this one that would potentially hamper your enjoyment of this book. If you've got a first time like here. I've got this book. Ninja turtles like. Oh hey i know that insurance rate they go into that expecting one thing in the thing that they get away from that in terms of just the type of story telling type of audience is catering to as well as the quality of the story that it is when it starts off versus where it ends. Yeah because of that because the writing and the art takes time to take some time to really develop into something that i think is would probably consumable for like a general very new comics audience. Like if i was trying to give someone a book and say here. This is a great example of comics. Could be or what you could expect from comics. I i don't think this is like the apex of that or this is a. This is a great pinnacle. A great first impression book. This is a book that i think is certain. Audience definitely can appreciate. But i don't think it's a new reader audience surrogate One thumbs up one thumbs-down michael brown. You didn't read the right books. But i'll ask you what. What would you give your books to a first time come reader. My books were like you wouldn't know the you wouldn't even need to know the lore of the turtles honestly and it would be fun. I went back through and look. There is no blood in none none whatsoever. It's just a very classical. Like interpretation of the turtles as far as i know and it was great. I liked it. I had fun with it is laughing at it. Which is why when you guys are talking about these. Like serious. Broody turtles on here..

You really couldn't differentiate didn't develop the personality of the turtles at all. They all kind of had the general like vibe like they had the vibe of the turtles but there was no differentiation. And that did bug me. 'cause they're all red in the one ira to bug me among a lot. This is not really about the turtles characters themselves at all. But i appreciated back to eastman and laird strengths.

Seven was like a different arc so they started over again because they had the cerberus Crossover with the aardvark. If we're being honest the book i read there wasn't even that many like it wasn't even about the turtles. The turtles are just kind of like this is like being presented by the turtle that they're in the background but is more like it was more like a the villains low level villains and stuff like that like just like humanizing stories. I was like oh this is nice. Like this is sweet weird. I wonder why they would have picked a snitch. Turtles stores. It's not about the ninja turtles forever up that say okay at the same time there was. It felt like it was a ninja turtles but like it was campy. There's a lot of the nineties. One liners it felt like they weren't they do weren't taking themselves as seriously as it sounds like they were in your book. There should of joan and this book. Yeah there i feel. It does actually very little dna that they have in common with their final adoration. And this book. There's not like one of the big problems. I had with aside from like if there is visual cues like if you're looking at the weapons they were holding. Or if you're looking at donnie physically working on a piece of technology. There's not a lot in this book to distinguish one character from another. It's sort of like just four people like they're not written with a different voice in any way. Eventually they go along very distinct personalities. That's one of the things you like about them is how they have very distinct character types that play off each other and in this book there. Everybody in this book feels as though it's written probably the only person feels like it's not written in different voices like the crane but from that I think part of this..

"They wanted it back in late august. On their way to francis northern border germany pushed through belgium. The small nation was quickly captured by august twentieth. It was in full occupation. All of a sudden the enemy had possession of territory right on the border and they showed no signs of stopping germany's forces were like a tidal wave of bullets and blood and it seemed very likely that france would indeed be invaded but again they tried to stop it. British soldiers came to help but the battle of months did not go as well as they had hoped for sending france and her allies into a quick retreat that was august twenty third. You have to stop and think about what it must have felt like. For the people of france and specifically those in the capital city of paris a foreign power had declared war on them and was now barreling toward them like a juggernaut in fact nothing had stopped germany at all and it would have been easy to feel hopeless in the face of that approaching danger in fact britain's foreign secretary at the time sir. Edward grey expressed that hopelessness out loud to a friend when he said the lamps are going out all over europe we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime. So that's where. The people of france were at politically and emotionally at the beginning of september of nineteen fourteen. Germany had broken through and despite their best efforts was quickly marching toward paris. So french forces were gathering along. The marne river northeast of paris to try and stop them. There was only one problem with the plan they were vastly outnumbered and while there were thousands of additional soldiers inside paris itself. The frontline was forty miles away and they had no way to get them there. If ever there was a time when the difference between the right choice and the wrong choice could be measured in lives. This was it. And that's when one of the generals had an idea. What if all the taxes in paris closed up for the day and instead agreed to drive the soldiers to battle. It would mean asking these drivers to put their lives in danger. It would mean asking them to give up the money. They might have earned that day but then again if germany broke through how many customers would have been left for them anyway so they all made the difficult decision. They were going to help on september seventh. A fleet of over six hundred taxis lined up in paris took on heavy loads of soldiers in gear and then set off for the marne when they arrived at night. The site of thousands of fresh troops sent a jolt of electricity through the french forces. Giving them a new drive to succeed and succeed they did. Oh and the taxis. Most of them headed home. The moment they dropped off their precious cargo. I can't blame them. Those cars were their livelihood and they probably wanted to get away from the battle as fast as they could many though stuck around and were used to transport wounded soldiers to safety because well it was the right thing to do. Tragedy usually takes things from us our possessions our homes and sometimes even the lives of the people in our community but if the story of a taxi drivers of paris has anything to teach us. It's just how powerful the illogical can be by putting their own lives at risk and jeopardizing their livelihood. They helped turn the tide in a war. that seemed all but lost.

He believed that it helped his creativity. Dickens even carried a compass with him to ensure that whenever he wrote he was doing so while pointing northward and waldo. Pierce was another eccentric. He was a painter born in maine in eighteen. Eighty four to a lumber baron father. His upbringing was nothing out of the ordinary. He grew up alongside. Two brothers and a sister attended harvard and even played on the university's football team after he graduated. Though the budding artists decided he wanted to see the world especially the areas where his field was experiencing an explosion of creativity with a focus on impressionism. Pierce left the. Us bound for england and paris along with his friend. John reid they had boarded a cattle ship called the ss bostonian which was set to reach liverpool in. Just ten days read made the trip pierce on. The other. Hand had second thoughts about his accommodations. Having come from wealth. He couldn't bear to be stuck on a ship. That reeked of cow manure and eat food. That was crawling with worms. He had just settled into his cabin when the notion struck him to get off the ship as quickly as possible as it was pulling out of boston harbor. He leapt from the deck into the water and swam back to shore. It was such a last minute decision that he left his wallet and watch behind his friend. John reid was questioned about his friend's disappearance. He handed over pierce's belongings which had been left right there on his bed. The captain however did it and by his story about pierce jumping ship read was taken into custody and thrown into the brig for his friends murder. Once the bostonian reached england read was actually led in chains by two british officers to the board of trade where he was to be tried for. Pierce's demise lucky for his buddy wasn't far behind. Pierce said bought himself a ticket on the luxury liner the mauritania which had gotten to liverpool a few days early. The captain accused him of breaking his contract by abandoning his post on the bostonian pierce ever. The practical joker had the perfect alibi. He told the court that he'd gotten seasick and fallen overboard. He had even tried to call for help. But the captain had been on the bridge and probably couldn't hear him much to pierce's surprise and luck. The captain really had been on the bridge so the matter was dropped. That wouldn't be the last time. The artist had fun at someone's expense. Though as pierces popularity grew in the art world. He started making some interesting new friends for example he traveled extensively throughout europe with ernest. Hemingway after world war one yellow married broadway actress ivy trautmann in one thousand nine hundred twenty after which the couple moved to paris. Were trautman befriended author james joyce and it was during this time when pierce carried out. Perhaps the most elaborate prank of his life as he got to know the concierge of his building he learned that the woman had a fondness for animals. So one day he gifted her with a turtle. Yeah a turtle. It wasn't the biggest turtles. Mind you but it became a real source of joy for her. She came to love the animal as anyone might love a dog or a cat and soon enough. The turtle begin to grow every few weeks. The turtle size would visibly increase. She even showed her neighbors proud of the incredible miracle of nature she had been gifted with except the turtle hadn't been growing at all. No pierce had been sneaking into her apartment and swapping out her beloved pet with turtles that were just a little bit larger than the last eventually he gave it arrest though leaving the concierge with a massive turtle and no explanation as to why it had grown to be so large until that is he started replacing it again with smaller and smaller ones and that my friends is more than a little curious.

When i was a kid and you know i kind of miss it sometimes but like like i don't know it's all like music's always been like a huge a huge part of my life in a you know probably a more of an inspiration than you know other comics or whatever earnest's in i felt like like originally i felt like ahead to 'cause if genyk is gonna be like you know quote unquote Turtle like what's like what's her thing. You know like every turtle has a thing that they could be. I don't want to say reduce down to but they have this kind of like one thing they're known for it right right so i really thought a lot about that. End brown revel who did The what is ninja backups. Intimate universe like you know it's like this alternating thing only passed in her present at that time when she was still human and he had her in Like the punk scene rate is like oh yeah like that's gonna what if she's like the musical journal you know so. I like going to concerts like mashing and stuff. And that's that's cool. That's easy to lake branch off. From in so i dislike. You know. I really focused on that in neo. I changed from punk to metal. Sorry brom but because he can't hear the music in the comic like it could have been metal. It could have been a metal show. And that there's there's more crossover. I think than people realize. Those attitudes scenery like hardcore punk and metal core stuff awake. Yes so it just. It just seemed like the obvious route to take and you know as as much as people probably don't don't like to admit it you know there's there's always been music in turtles. You know coming under their chills sore in stuff like that and you know everybody loves the turtles theme song the eighties. One you know. There's like nods in the old mirage comics. Were like raft is like really metallica. Stuff like that. It just seems like okay. This is you know she's jessica is the is the music turtle she's like the metal turtle..

"President biden spent billions in taxpayer money. Boosting unemployment benefits for people put out of work in the pandemic but experts. Now say that criminals and fraudsters are exploiting that relief for their own spoils government contractor who works with states to prevent fraud in unemployment claims estimates as much as four hundred billion of that code. Cash may have been stolen telling fox this we have continued to find that over thirty percent of new pandemic unemployment. Assistance claims are fraudulent experts. Also tell us. Criminals are dipping into that pot of money to the secret service more about this. A year ago telling congress they were tracking quote a vast international scheme to defraud. us state unemployment systems. Lexis-nexis risks solution. Ceo tells fox about seventy percent of that. Stolen cash has left the country taken by criminals aligned with our adversaries like russia and china. So this happened back. I started in under the trump administration. So it's not a biden thing. It's just a big government thing. It's just a giant if you have a giant bureaucracy pumping out trillions of dollars. Really fast. it's going to be very sloppy. The current number four hundred billion dollars. You know what you can do with four hundred billion dollars practically anything. I mean practically anything you can do with four hundred billion dollars that is so spectacularly galling. It's tough to even listen to that report. Yeah not only. Is that a mind boggling amount of money but imagine investing your own money. This is your own money but imagine investing your own money in something that was thirty percent fraud about a third of the time you just got ripped off and he just kept doing it. Well in california had the biggest fraud in its history. The biggest state had the biggest fraud in its history around the same sort of thing People getting unemployment money tons of prisoners from out of state for instance. It's just it's just bureaucracies are not good at this. Plus they don't care that much now the the government just doesn't care about your money the way you care about your money now because it's individual bureaucrats making these decisions and designing these systems and and it's not their money at all I'm flipping through my articles trying to find the the coverage of this. You know what. I don't recall hearing is whether anybody has any bowl belief that it's gotten any better that they've got better at detecting it and stopping it. That's why i said kept saying so far right. We we've yeah that's like going back to the first couple of rounds of trillion dollar plus stimulus money. Who knows how much has been stolen since then. You just calling wouldn't have to go very long before he'd end up with a trillion dollars has been stolen that chinese criminal organizations and russians and the rest of just laughing can't believe how fac into. Oh speaking of which coverage of kim jong un's fatness coming up just how fat and stupid. We are with our money so brought you the story from the skinny dictators desk yesterday. That kim jong hoon apparently lost a bunch of wait. What were they guessing his weight at. Well he's shutting the government whose job it is to guess how much kim gentlemen ways. Well they thought he was like three hundred and twenty five pounds at one point but he is his fatness has declined from a f. To as hell so i actually watched a bunch of video. They just put out some video of him presiding over some meeting in which a bunch of terrified boot-lickers tried to out applaud each other. It's so it's it's amusing in a way but but sickening and terrifying in a way to watch how desperate the all these leaders are. And they're all you know folks in their fifties and sixties just desperately trying not to be seen as under applauding for the great leader frantically applauding until he makes them stop and then they could barely stop themselves. 'cause they love him so much but anyway i was watching this video and he is clearly thinner. If i had the gas could be fifty pounds. He's still big boy mediterranean day thinker. No north korean night. You don't eat although he gets the best of everything. But kim watchers have seized upon the slimmer. Waist is a potential sign of something if tim simply slimmed down to be healthier than that likely improves. His position at home and provides more predictability for regional actors japan south korea and the us who may have greater confidence. You'll be running. The show said one leading analyst different analysts said if the weight loss is due to a health condition the jockeying for succession may already be happening and that volatility could be trouble for the outside world. Nobody has any idea why he's thinner. North korean news which covers north korea went so far as to super enlarge large images of his favourite watch on his wrist then and now uses one less hole or one more heavily. They get such a detailed picture. They could see was using it. Different whole on his watchband. Yeah he's got a little more strapped to spare. He had the wrist like a baby with the creases in it. And they say if you look at the side by side photos it does look like. He's lost significant weight. And there's real reason for concern. His father and grandfather both died of heart attacks. They say he's got pretty good. He's has access to good medical care. The best north korea has also china and russia since they're a satellites. He's a satellite. Stay very overweight smoker. Whose family has heart attacks. Yeah yeah oh. I think we got to them with a very high stress job right right as a guy in my fifties. I will tell you this. All those things you young folks listening you know whether you're twenty s or whatever all those things they tell you from you is your legs when you lift to keep eating like that you know. Obesity is a problem blah blah blah. All that stuff too much. Drink everything all those birds come home to roost and as a bagel vat boy with a history of heart disease and incredibly stressful job. Dr probably finally got to listen. Oh great and wise leader. You will surely ascend to heaven and sit at the right hand of god when you go. But you're going to go pretty quick slimmed-down big old fat boy. And then he had. The doctor pushed out a window right. And then said i gotta loosen. He's right. you're right well in north korea. Nobody's slapping kim jong hoon and getting with it but in france somebody slapped french president macron the other day. If you've seen the video the man who slapped the french president is in jail for four months. Is that all you get for slapping a world leader assaulting a world leader twenty eight year old damian. Tyrel eighteen months in jail for assaulting a public official fourteen months suspended according to reuters. He's an unemployed medieval martial arts enthusiast medieval martial arts those east it means he goes to renaissance fairs and potenza sort fight and recently took up jujitsu.

Wing views and sympathized with the yellow vest movement which held anti macron protests in the early days of his presidency. We remember those of bah.

What would you get in the united states. I don't have the slightest idea either. I think he'd probably depend on the discretion of prosecutors in what they thought. I mean you got to lay down the law. You can't just slap in the president course. You can't get near enough to the president to do that although wait a minute. No of a work in a rope or something. You could slap him. Yeah oh monica lewinsky to slap bill clinton. Obviously yeah we gave her the slapentickle as it turns out but Yeah well you'd get elder abuse for slap and biden long gash.
