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.
An appeals court sided with the Justice Department in a legal fight over classified documents seized in a court-authorized search of former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, ruling Wednesday that the FBI may use the documents in its ongoing criminal investigation.
The ruling by a three-judge panel of the appeals court marks a victory, at least temporarily, for the Justice Department in its legal battle with Trump over access to the evidence seized in a high-stakes national security investigation to determine if the former president or his advisers mishandled national security secrets or hid or destroyed government records.
The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection has reached an agreement with Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, to be interviewed by the panel in coming weeks, her attorney said Wednesday.
Thomas’s attorney, Mark Paoletta, confirmed the agreement in a statement.
“I can confirm that Ginni Thomas has agreed to participate in a voluntary interview with the Committee,” Paoletta said. “As she has said from the outset, Mrs. Thomas is eager to answer the Committee’s questions to clear up any misconceptions about her work relating to the 2020 election. She looks forward to that opportunity.”

Yes, when I read about the above, I couldn't hold back a little "Yippeee!" about the things that Dearie said. And I really have come to respect Liz Cheney, for saying out loud what many of us know and agree with. Trump is not a King and his toadies and many in the Republican party should essentially start letting go of their slavering adoration of the man.

Doesn't matter, experience or not, a disaster is a disaster. Florida is familiar with hurricanes but it doesn't mean it's not a disaster when one comes through. That was a huge typhoon.
That's true and it isn't fair for me to minimize other tragedy. It's just all so strange for us.
On a lighter note, here's me in Alaska circa very early 1960's. (I'm in the white in the front, my brother is in red, and you can hardly see me because of the snow.)
It has to be devastating to see your home being washed away and destroyed.
"Electric vehicles are the latest (mandatory) craze, and there doesn’t seem to be any slowing in that politically-charged momentum. However, to make electric car batteries, elements such as lithium graphite, nickel, and cobalt need to be extracted from the earth and processed, and according to new research, we have a pretty good idea of just how much we’re going to need. And it’s a lot."
