This is Dr. Larissa Portnoff. Donald Trump started sexually abusing her when she was 8 years old. She has a lot to say.

Just as Supreme Court Justice Katani Brown Jackson predicted, when her fellow Republican Justices granted Trump immunity. "The White House will become the epicenter of world crime". She warned us.

Must watch... she's so brave. “I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report. Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share. #press #Trump #Corruption #Justice #Accountability #rape

Leading theory is that the T-tail iced up or it went to stall and then an over speed dive at Mach 0.9. Over speed resistance broke the tail off completely if it hadn’t broken already. There is no saving it if the t-tail iced over or breaks off. “T-tail penalty” of this design :

The real trade-off with private flying is time and convenience vs. safety. You skip the airport hassle, fly on your schedule and get closer to where you’re going. That’s the luxury. But you’re not buying airline-level safety. The numbers cited here are 0.034 fatal accidents per 100,000 flight hours for scheduled airlines, vs. 0.155 for charter and 0.197 for private/corporate jets. Private can save you a ton of time. Commercial is still hard to beat on safety.

Nine people are dead after a horrific plane crash, and somehow the internet has turned it into a debate about female pilots, DEI, and conspiracy theories about Mar-a-Lago. As a pilot, let me explain what we actually know, what we don't, and why the internet needs to stop pretending to be aviation experts.

Love how russian Z-propaganda bloggers are in full panic mode about Ukraine renewing strikes on russian oil refineries, yet they don't dare mention that all of russia's air defense is protecting Putin's home in Valdai.
Panic among Russia's blogosphere as the realization dawns that Ukraine's new campaign of destroying Russian refineries is more powerful than all previous and faces their weakest ever levels of air defenses, with already three of the country's largest refineries hit in only 3 days.

Was Elon Musk Among the Nine Victims of the Florida Plane Crash? On November 1, 2026, a private Learjet carrying nine people plunged from the sky over Florida, killing everyone aboard. @elonmusk, @SpaceX The jet had departed Austin, Texas, and was traveling toward the Bahamas when its pilots reported severe turbulence and icing conditions. With the victims' identities still undisclosed, questions remain about who was traveling on the aircraft. Could Elon Musk have been among them? At this stage, there is no evidence supporting that possibility, and no credible report has connected him to the flight. The passenger identities remain an important unanswered question as investigators continue their work. The key distinction: An undisclosed passenger list leaves identities unknown; it does not, by itself, make Elon Musk's involvement a credible possibility.

Who was the pilot in Command. Stop blaming the co-driver girl.

Even putin’s own warmongers are dropping their masks one by one. For years, the Kremlin claimed its invasion of Ukraine was about 'protecting Russian speakers' and defending freedom. But fierce pro-war nationalists like Igor Girkin and the late Yevgeny Prigozhin have already admitted the grim reality: this war was never about liberation—it was always about power and seizing territory. Now, another prominent Russian Z-blogger and journalist, Maxim Shevchenko, has let the truth slip out. Shevchenko openly admits that Moscow didn't step in to save anyone. instead, they brutally crushed the actual local rebellion in the Donbas to control it themselves. When even the most hardcore supporters of the war turn on the official narrative and expose putin’s land grab, you know the regime's lies are collapsing from the inside. Interviewer: “In the end, who did we actually work for?” Maxim Shevchenko: “And if Russia hadn't intervened in 2014 and hadn't supported the rebelling Donbas, then all of Ukraine—and [Russia] wouldn't have annexed Crimea—all of Ukraine, including Crimea, would be part of NATO today. And did Donbas really rebel? Donbas rebelled, I was in Donbas and saw it with my own eyes. Another matter is that this popular uprising was crushed as a popular uprising by Moscow. By Moscow.”

The largest unreinforced concrete dome on Earth is 1,900 years old. There's no steel inside it. Nobody has built a bigger one since. The Pantheon, Rome. Rebuilt by Hadrian and finished around 125 AD. 43 metres across, more than twice as wide as any dome built before it. The trick is in the mix. Heavy stone at the bottom. Lighter stone as it climbs. Volcanic pumice at the top. The dome is over six metres thick at its base, but only about one metre at the top. And right in the middle, they left a hole. Nine metres wide, open to the sky. When it rains, it rains inside. The floor slopes gently, with holes to drain it away. The height to that hole and the width across are exactly the same. A perfect sphere would fit inside. Cassius Dio, writing some 75 years later, thought that was the point. Because of its vaulted roof, he said, it resembles the heavens. And over the door, Hadrian left someone else's name. The man who built the first temple here: M·AGRIPPA·L·F·COS·TERTIVM·FECIT Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, consul for the third time, built this. 🏛️
