-Short Attention Span Theater-
Experts explain reasons for [slight] increase in shark sightings along the Gulf Coast following recent attacks
[WKRG] It’s no surprise to many on the Gulf Coast that sharks live in our waters, but two separate shark attacks on the same day just miles apart raised concerns about the rising population of sharks.

Escambia County Sheriff’s Office seeks help in identifying burglary suspect
According to Dr. Sean Powers, the director of the University of South Alabama’s Stokes School of Marine and Environmental Sciences, unlike the rise in shark and beachgoer populations, “the incidents of shark attacks hasn’t increased that much.”

SHARK NUMBERS ALONG THE GULF COAST
Dr. Powers said that this time of year — from April to June — the Gulf Coast sees the highest number of sharks in the waters.

“The ones that don’t like warm water are still here, and the ones that are residents are happy and they’re not looking for colder water,” Dr. Powers explained.

Much of what drove the shark population, according to Dr. Powers, is the conservation efforts. He explained the conservation efforts have focused on preventing fishermen from targeting sharks.

#5  It's global warming, right?

Most def!
Global warming means rising sea levels.
Rising sea levels mean more water.
More water means more room for sharks.
More sharks means more shark bites.
QED, bitches!

#1  Biden to Take Pension of $413k a Year (Finance.Yahoo.com)
Posted by: Whavick Scourge of the Apes9857 || 07/24/2024 1:29 Comments || Top||

#2  Impeach Harris (Delegated as "The US Border Czar" to Uphold the Laws of the USA, specifically "The Border" -Not Done-), Invoke the 26th Amendment vis-a-vis Biden's fitness for Holding the Office (Not Done), Constitutional Requirement to Faithfully Fulfil the Duties of the Federal Office which she holds (Not Done) - So to Date, She is a "Place Holder" vice an Officer in the Government - So truly she is the "vice" President in the USG equal to the "vice" demonstrated by the President. Thus, as with the above, it is organized to subvert the rightful, lawful acts to which they were elected to uphold, the Law of the USG; RICO Charges can now come into effect, for further clarification for what was and was not done, in the last 42 months of this term. IMO

#3  Why now on the impeachment? While I find Harris unfit for just about any job, the timing of this looks very suspicious: could have, and should have been filed long ago, when she first ignored the border. There will be talking heads that say this is a desperate effort by the Republicans, and they may not be wrong.

#4  It’s Kabuki theater, USN, Ret. Until the Republicans have at least a majority in the Senate, bills of impeachment coming from the House won’t be allowed to continue.
Posted by: trailing wife || 07/24/2024 11:22 Comments || Top||

#5  Besides, until one side or another have at least a 2/3 majority in the Senate, articles of impeachment won't go anywhere.
Unless the malfeasance is so obvious that both sides would vote for removal.

LARRY KUDLOW: Kamala Harris is a spender, a taxer and a regulator

#1  A bit about her father. Donald J. Harris:

Contributions to economic analysis and policy
Harris's research and publications have focused on exploring the process of capital accumulation and its implications for economic growth with the aim of proving that economic inequality and uneven development are inevitable properties of economic growth in a market economy.[22] From this standpoint, he has sought to assess the traditions of economic study inherited from the classical economists and Karl Marx as well as modern contributions while engaging in related economic studies of various countries' experience.[2][23]

Harris is said to work in the tradition of Post-Keynesian economics.[24][25] He has acknowledged the works of Joan Robinson, Maurice Dobb, Piero Sraffa, Michal Kalecki, Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, Joseph Schumpeter, and W. Arthur Lewis as influences upon his work.[2][26][27][28]

The issue. It's ever
And ever and ever taxation.

#2  Yeah, this will really stop the deep state sliding into antsemitism. Just like Trump did in 4 years.

#3  *laughs* The BLM and Antifa part of the DNC hate the jews. Look at DC today. Dems are too full of hate to vote for a jew. The power brokers wont put a jew on the Dem ticket.

#5  I assume this is propaganda. If the Americans of Jewish faith cant see through the hate of the DNC, the deserve what they get. Even Stevie Wonder can see the hate. The Jewish community needs to wake up and vote accordingly, or suffer the consequences of their ignorance. The leader of Israel is talking to congress right now and the leader of the Democrat party is not there out of protest, out of hate...

#9  The Jewish community needs to wake up

There ae lots of opposing opinions about everything within the Jewish community, 49 Pan. More importantly, that part of the Jewish community that does not support the Progressive Jew-haters is the part that’s having lots of children. Progressive Jews, just like Progressive non-Jews, are as a group well below replacement.

#10  Glad to hear. I just dont get it, or understand the culture. Logic would lead me to them being conservative, never wanting the past to resurface. And yet they continually side with the liberal left that care nothing for them, hates their religion and hate Israel...
Posted by: 49 Pan || 07/24/2024 20:49 Comments || Top||

#11  The easy observation, 49 Pan, is that for every two Jews there are at least three opinions — on any topic under the sun. This is a tradition that goes back well over two millennia. Contrqry to popular belief, we are not a homogenous group.

But in general, Western Jews are assimilated, highly educated, and many are professionals or business owners - and in general they think exactly like their non-Jewish peers. I agree with you that choosing Progressivism at this stage is self-destructive… but also like their non-Jewish peers the Progressive ones are having fewer than replacement number of children, while the conservative ones are having more than replacement — like in Israel, an average of three or more. A generation from now the question will be why Jews are politically so much more conservative than their non-Jewish peers.

#12  Thanks TW. I'm not putting down the faith, it just seems on the surface the majority are following a horse that hold them in contempt.
