Maui County officials released two hours of audio of 911 calls to The Associated Press that were recorded as frantic residents tried to escape the deadliest U.S. wildfire in a century. The inferno in Lahaina killed at least 98 people.
A few of the calls made to 911:
The open corruption of the Biden administration is the great uniparty white elephant in the room that we can't talk about. The media has proven itself to be the danger to democracy that they themselves prattle on about. The uniparty hates Trump and that must be our only focus no matter how high the establishment jumps the shark or how many times. The Biden corruption makes their god Obama look bad once again so deflection and protection is the legacy media's main mission. Protect the uniparty and the agenda. Stick to the narrative. Think the evidence isn't overwhelming at this point ?
Still nothing to see here ?
You can watch Hunter Biden's business partner Devon Archer talk about some of their dealings. Not so oddly enough, Devon Archer seems to always remove himself from any of the wrong doing .....

As reported by CBS
And more from yet another Hunter Biden business partner.
Whistleblowers, coverups, shell corps, burner phones, slow walking investigations, stonewalling and so much more. But Trump the orange man is bad and a danger to democracy ? Do you really believe that and do you buy their distractions ? Why are so many people willing to stay silent on Biden's open corruption while manufacturing charges against Trump, his political rival ? There is no deep state and no obvious coordination with corporate media ? No uniparty ? No swamp ? What happened to the TeaParty when they wanted to defund it all ? Did you try to question the lockdowns and mandates ? Maybe have a few questions on election 2020 or climate alarmism ?
No questions about any of the above ? Then they must have given you a very warm welcome to the machine. I will let you finish your cigar, you are gonna go far.
Giving Florida man a run for his money, Michigan man stops an armed robbery while holding his 6 pack of beer. Compare the store owner cowered in the corner versus an armed man. For the time being, you can choose to arm and defend yourself. Now to the story.
CASSOPOLIS, Mich. (WOOD) — Newly-released surveillance video shows a Cass County gas station customer firing seven shots at a suspected armed robber, all while holding a six-pack of light beer.
The July 27 shooting at the Stone Lake Marathon Mini Mart seriously injured the suspect, who had armed himself with a box cutter.
Three weeks later, the customer is waiting to learn if he’ll face criminal charges.
“You know why I’m here” is how the robber announced himself that day, according to police reports.
The gas station surveillance video showed the customer holding a six-pack of Miller Lite as the suspect, dressed in black, walked in.
The suspect, identified in court records as Cordelius Anthony Martin, 35, of Dowagiac, pulled a mask over his face.
Another angle showed him approaching the store clerk.
Police said he threatened the clerk with a box cutter.
The customer, who has a valid concealed carry permit, told police he couldn’t see what was in the robber’s hand, but he could see the look of fear on the clerk’s face.
Video showed the customer pulling a handgun and firing three shots, then another three, all while holding the six-pack.
It appeared one of those shots hit a liquor bottle.
The customer fired the final shot several seconds later.
Bullets struck the robber in the arm, back and face.
The customer told police the suspect fell to the floor but was crawling toward him.
That, he told police, is when he ran to his car to get another loaded magazine.
He held the suspect at gunpoint until police arrived.
Cass County Prosecutor Victor Fitz said he is waiting for police to finish the investigation before deciding whether to file criminal charges against the customer.
“In Michigan, obviously, we do have defense of others as part of the law in Michigan, that you can defend others if they’re in a situation that there’s dangerous force being used against them,” he said. “And certainly in this case, we’ll be looking at the facts in regard to that.”
Target 8 reached out to the man who fired the shots, who lives about four blocks from the Marathon station, but he declined to comment.
The victim of the robbery wouldn’t go on camera but said: “He saved my life.”
The suspect was released from the hospital on Wednesday and arraigned on three charges, including armed robbery.
He is being held on a $100,000 bond. Because he’s a three-time felon, he could face up to life in prison.

Now that we know what the mindcrime is let us watch the video and find out from the people directly on why they obviously hate black people so much. Reading minds is quite progressive.
When you control the language .......
Welcome to Biden's open border America. Where democrats proudly boast of their Sanctuary Cities until they have to pay for it. Then all bets are off.as NYC ships out their ILLEGALS a.k.a. fake asylum seekers to unsuspecting and/or gullible outstate locations, if not CANADA The reaction from the left has been fun to watch
That small video clip from last Wednesday now takes us to the end of the week in Erie County, New York.
Problems at the different "migrant centers" aren't getting much attention, by design. The legacy media is no champion of truth obviously. Sexual assaults and sending in the national guard went under the radar too. Considering the fact democrats won't use the national guard to stop looting, arson and murder in the cities it seems at least a little news worthy.
And the democrats will do NOTHING about the open border and will continue to push for more amnesty based plans because it gives them a political advantage. Just see how cynically they have used DACA. I will leave you with this immigration flashback classic
One day after California green-lighted a massive expansion of driverless robotaxis in San Francisco, the implications became clear.
At about 11 p.m. Friday, as many as 10 Cruise driverless taxis blocked two narrow streets in the center of the city’s lively North Beach bar and restaurant district. All traffic came to a standstill on Vallejo Street and around two corners on Grant. Human-driven cars sat stuck behind and in between the robotaxis, which might as well have been boulders: no one knew how to move them.
The cars sat motionless with parking lights flashing for 15 minutes, then woke up and moved on, witnesses said.
Aaron Peskin, who represents North Beach on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, was flooded with texts, emails and videos from constituents as the robotaxis, programmed with artificial intelligence software, sat unresponsive. In one video, zeroing in on a robotaxi’s “driver” seat, a man says “this is what our country has come to.”Cruise blamed cell phone carriers for the problem. At 11:01 p.m. Friday, Peskin sent a text message to Cruise government affairs manager Lauren Wilson. At 8:25 a.m. Saturday, she texted back: “As I understand it, outside lands impacted LTE cell connectivity and ability for RA advisors to route cars.” Outside Lands is a three-day music festival held in Golden Gate Park, four miles from North Beach.
The situation is loaded with irony, as the California Public Utilities Commission on Thursday voted 3-1 amid great public controversy to allow a massive robotaxi expansion. The vote allows General Motors-owned Cruise and Waymo, owned by Google’s Alphabet, to charge fares for driverless service and grow the fleet as large as they’d like. Cruise has said it plans eventually to deploy thousands of robotaxis in San Francisco.City officials in San Francisco, from the mayor’s office down, have been fighting the move, with officials saying the robotaxi industry needs to fix problems that endanger the public first before further expanding the business. The city’s fire department has logged more than 55 cases of robotaxis interfering with first responders. Fire Chief Jeanine Nicholson has repeatedly said Cruise and Waymo are getting in firefighters’ way and their technology is “not ready for prime time.”
The CPUC decided to go ahead anyway. One of the three yes votes was cast by Commissioner John Reynolds, who served as head lawyer at Cruise before appointed to the CPUC by Gov. Gavin Newsom.The no vote came from Commissioner Genevieve Shiroma, who said the companies should explain the problems and how they plan to fix them first. .........
Did a famed parks leader import gray squirrels to Minneapolis — and have the red ones killed? January 20, 2023 Star Trib
Gray squirrels were once a rare breed mostly found in forests. Now they are abundant in the city's parks.
Minneapolis parks are swarming with gray squirrels — those fat-cheeked, bushy-tailed tree rats that stalk picnics and snatch Doritos out of people's hands.
They're smart. They're audacious. And they might be overpopulated.
Reader Dennis Becker wanted to know if it was true that one of the founders of the Minneapolis park system, longtime superintendent Theodore Wirth, had imported gray squirrels to Minneapolis from afar. He sought answers from Curious Minnesota, the Star Tribune's reporting project fueled by reader questions.
"I heard they went around shooting all the red squirrels so they could have the gray squirrels," said Becker, who suggested it might be time to shoot the grays now. "They're such a nuisance, you know. They chew on everything and there's so many of them."
The answer is, amazingly, yes. Wirth did go out of his way to supplant one squirrel with another.
That's according to old newspaper articles, Minneapolis Park Board records and local park historian David C. Smith. Wirth, who did many heavy-handed things to reshape nature in pursuit of the perfect park, was actually quite proud of himself for the accomplishment.
It's hard to imagine parks today without the common gray squirrel — though it is not clear how much of the Twin Cities' urban squirrel population can be attributed to Wirth's effort. They were once a rare breed mostly found in forests, a sought-after lawn ornament for budding urban parks around the country......
