What caught your attention in the world today?

Published

I came across this is little story today, it's not breaking news.  I suspect that a member of the housekeeping staff knows something about the bomb threat that required the sweep for weapons.

According to police in Secaucus, the bomb threat — which later was determined to be bogus — was called in to Hudson Regional Hospital on July 18. During a search, bomb detection dogs led investigators to an unlocked office closet containing dozens of firearms.

Among the weapons were 11 handguns and 27 rifles or shotguns, according to police. The closet also contained a .45 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was determined to be an assault rifle, and a 14-round high-capacity handgun magazine.

The arrested the guy the next day. 

What the heck do you think this guy was doing? It sounds very ominous that he was keeping those weapons there.

Still, this is sad and frighteningly likely.  This should be headline news and not just for the state of Arizona.

It is headline news and I'm not sure anyone is listening.  People are still migrating to the sun belts.  They've had a good quarter of a century notice on this and still refuse to deal with it.  Just leave it alone and G-d will provide?  One of the reasons I decided to retire to the Great Lakes region was never having to worry about a reliable water supply.  I've lived through a coupld of bad droughts as a kid and remembered the lesson.

Reading through that $1.7 Trillion bill.  More money being laundered over to the Government holding Ukraine hostage and who knows how much the Biden's profit off of this.  Sad that nobody will ever be held accountable for this

It's Sad to see America go from the least corrupt President since Reagan to this current disaster of an administration.  Obama should be in prison for his role in the 2014 Ukraine Coup that has led to the greatest robbery in American history.  Can you imagine the good this money could be doing securing the border?

Can you explain this a little more? Which government is holding Ukraine hostage? Which Bidens are profiting and how? Who should be held accountable?

Obama assisted the extremist groups in overthrowing the Democratically elected government in Ukraine in 2014 ousting Yanukovych.  This is what ultimately led to President Putin liberating the nation from the false government.  As for Biden it is well know that Hunter Biden sits on "energy boards" in Ukraine collecting a fat salary.  Former President Trump tried to bring attention to this which led to the corrupt politicians with ties to Ukraine deflecting with the first false impeachment.
