“The Biden administration is warning states to be on guard for cyberattacks against water systems, citing ongoing threats from hackers linked to the governments of Iran and China.
‘Disabling cyberattacks are striking water and wastewater systems throughout the United States,’ Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan wrote in a letter to governors made public Tuesday. ‘These attacks have the potential to disrupt the critical lifeline of clean and safe drinking water, as well as impose significant costs on affected communities.’
Hackers affiliated with the Iranian Government Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps have attacked drinking water systems, while a People’s Republic of China state-sponsored group, Volt Typhoon, has compromised information technology of drinking water and other critical infrastructure systems, the letter warned.
‘Federal departments and agencies assess with high confidence that Volt Typhoon actors are pre-positioning themselves to disrupt critical infrastructure operations in the event of geopolitical tensions and/or military conflicts,’ said the letter.
The water system is an especially vulnerable part of US infrastructure, fraught with weak controls, insufficient funding and staffing shortages.
THINGS TO PONDER:
WHY is this being allowed to happen?
That’s the right question.
How is it that the most advanced country in the world doesn’t have a handle on this?
It almost seems like those who are least capable continue to be put into leadership positions in government, and they continue to fail… miserably.
At this point, it’s a good idea to prepare for a bumpy ride.

“In the future, the ideal time to eat a burger won’t be when you’re hungry and really hankering for one. It’ll be the oddest, most awkward hours — late mornings or afternoons, the middle of the night on a Tuesday — the slices of time when prices will be lowest. Not unlike your Uber ride, fast food prices will go up or down depending on demand.
At least, this is the world people imagined when fast food chain Wendy’s revealed it would be tinkering with “dynamic pricing,” a broad term that describes any strategy where prices fluctuate based on supply and demand — like flights and Uber rides. The uproar was swift and sonorous; Wendy’s tried to clarify that it would use the strategy to offer lower prices, not to raise them when traffic is highest, but the reputational damage was done. In countless headlines, Wendy’s was accused of using surge pricing on food at a time when steep food prices at both restaurants and grocery stores have left many people drastically tightening their belts.
Above all, the Wendy’s fiasco also highlights an uncomfortable truth: It feels impossible to know what to expect to pay for anything. There are a lot of reasons for this — inflation, hidden fees, tipping creep — but one simple one is that we’ve been in the trenches of dynamic pricing for a long time.
Between flights, hotels, concerts, car insurance, electricity, gas, Ubers, and online retailers like Amazon, many sellers adjust their prices using the trove of data at their fingertips to predict what people might pay at any given moment.

This should scare you… a lot:

WOW.
When you are lulled to sleep over months… even years… this is the result.
If we keep going down this road, it ends up at that place we don’t want to be:
“You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy.”
Keep pushing back… don’t let them do it to you.

Issues with critters? Sick of using things that can easily make you sick or kill you?
Dr. Killigan’s is THE all-natural solution. Check out what a customer had to say about their “Six Feet Under” non-toxic insect spray:
I bought this to get rid of the ants that built a nest in my flagstone patio and sidewalk. I have granddaughters and pets, and I didn't want to use chemicals that could make them sick if they were exposed. I've used other natural pesticides in the past with mild success but this stuff definitely does the trick! I've only had to spray one time over a month ago...still no sign of the ants returning. 10/10, will be purchasing more.”

“President Joe Biden's administration announced Wednesday revised pollution standards for cars and trucks meant to accelerate the US auto industry's shift to electric to mitigate climate change.
The rules set ambitious emission reductions for 2032 but are moderated compared with preliminary standards unveiled last April. Following carmaker criticism, the final rules give manufacturers greater flexibility and ease the benchmarks in the first three years.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan said the updated policy would lead to a future ‘powered by cleaner energy’ leveraging ‘American ingenuity and technology.’
Speaking against a backdrop that included electric vehicles (EVs) and an American flag, Regan was joined by environmental groups, a key auto industry lobby supporting the policy and an EPA colleague from the agency's environmental justice wing who emphasized improvements in air quality in largely non-white communities near heavy industry and highways.
But the policy drew criticism from Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and the American Petroleum Institute, which threatened litigation to block changes that ‘will unequivocally eliminate most new gas cars... from the US market in less than a decade.’"
THINGS TO PONDER:
The issue with this is freedom… in particular, your freedom to move freely…
EV's have limited capacity, take extra time to charge, and the US electrical grids can barely keep up with demand now…
How exactly are we supposed to have all cars be electric?
That’s the right question.
David Walsh provides a breakdown of just how much of a fool’s errand “green energy” is, including how much more it would cost AND how it’s actually bad for the environment:
