News- US

http://youtu.be/AspVHWDiCzE Russia is scheduled to launch its first mission to the moon in nearly 50 years on Friday, pitting it in a space race with India which is also aiming to land a lunar craft this month.

Joe Manchin says he’s ‘thinking seriously’ about leaving Democratic Party

News- US

http://youtu.be/Q7shFXOpkaA Sen. Joe Manchin said Thursday he is “thinking seriously” about leaving the Democratic Party and registering as an independent. “I’m thinking seriously.

The ‘D’ brand and ‘R’ brand,” Manchin (D-WV) told Mountain State radio host Hoppy Kercheval. “You’ve heard me say a million times, I am not a Washington Democrat.” Manchin, 75, has battled with President Biden in recent months over energy policy, accusing his administration of “ignoring” provisions to expand domestic fossil fuels in the Inflation Reduction Act — which he co-sponsored and helped pass. The senator also threatened to block nominees for the Environmental Protection Agency to protest Biden’s “radical climate agenda” fol...

http://youtu.be/xdzysYx97gU Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was drowned out by jeers and chants of “retire” during a speech in Kentucky Saturday, just days after the Republican lawmaker froze up midsentence at an event. While speaking at the Fancy Farm picnic, one of his home state’s main political events, the 81-year-old Republican received some positive cheers before getting drowned out by an angry crowd screaming “Shame on you,” “Ditch Mitch,” “Retire” and “Lost the Senate.” “This is my 28th Fancy Farm, and I want to assure you it’s not my last,” McConnell said at the top of his breakfast speech, only vaguely addressing the overarching concerns about his health.

News- US

http://youtu.be/aluCiWgNQpw The boyfriend of teenage runaway Alicia Navarro became more “aggressive and angry” over the last two years before being canned by Walmart, a former co-worker told The Post. Eddie Davis, 36, lost his job as a night time stocker after he hurled “angry comments” toward other employees, the former colleague said this week. “He would call younger guys names and stuff. I’m not sure of the names. He was being very aggressive,” said the coworker, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the press. Davis had been living with Navarro, now 18, for at least a year in a Havre apartment, neighbors said, before the pair fled to the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation this week.

Trump blames wokeness for US women’s soccer team loss, trolls Megan Rapinoe: ‘USA is going to Hell!’

Scientists achieve world-changing nuclear fusion breakthrough — twice

News- US

http://youtu.be/LmIXhNn18S8 American scientists have for the first time managed to reach — and then improve on — a longtime goal of nuclear research. Twice in under a year, researchers at California’s Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have managed to trigger a fusion reaction resulting in a net energy gain, or producing more power than was used to fuel the experiment. Their accomplishment represents an unprecedented “ignition” of the zero-carbon energy source that physicists have been trying to tap into since World War II. As a power source, nuclear fusion far surpasses its controversial counterpart, nuclear fission. The latter produces as a byproduct dangerous waste that lingers for thousands of years. The US Department of Energy described the laboratory’s work as “a major scien...

A nearby, three-story building can be seen about to experience the same fate as its foundation...
