East Palestine, Ohio residents are being required to sign indemnity waivers, releasing Norfolk Southern Railway (NSR) from legal liability, as a requirement of having their water/air tests conducted on their property.

We live in interesting times. The pushback from Kevin McCarthy to a reporter’s question demonstrates a beginning willingness to step away from politics as usual in Washington. Perhaps we will owe a bigger debt of gratitude to the 20 rebels who held up his getting the speakership.
The powers behind the Oval Office are pushing America into war against Russia. These people started this process during the Obama administration with the coup that overthrew the existing Ukrainian government. Why? Because the Ukrainian President at the time was getting friendly with Russia.

Last year, experts in multiple related agricultural fields had openly started to discuss and predict a looming crisis in the global food supply since the majority of food is contingent on only one or two growing cycles per year for harvest.
