February 08, 2024 -

As incredulous as it seems, the FAA provided secret code words to students who were part of the Black Caucus of Federal Aviation Employees. When placed in their resume, they essentially served as a flag that could push them to the front of line for job consideration, quite possibly at the expense of candidates who could be considerably more qualified for the role.

According to reports, one of the signals they used to fast-track resumes was the answer to a question in ...

Adams touched on how the robocars industry is completely bombed at the moment. "Apple just canceled plans for EVs. Volvo has shifted away from EV design and manufacturing," he said.

National security threat: China building a bridge in Central America to fuel U.S. MIGRANT CRISIS

10 days ago -

According to reports, the structure is being built in the town of Yaviza in Panama, which sits on the Chucunaque River. The said bridge is apparently big enough for a column of tanks to cross. But most concerning is that migrants, not tanks, will be the ones to utilize the bridge the most.

The Chucunaque River serves as the separation point between Central and South America, and is one of the most southerly points reachable by road from North America as part of the Pan-American ...

Biden is DESTROYING the U.S. fossil fuel industry and handing over refining market to “dirty” China

September 12, 2023 -

America's energy infrastructure and resources are in such disrepair, and refining capacity constantly declining, that any disruptions – this includes the smallest supply chain hiccup or delay – will send energy prices into a tailspin of wild and extreme volatility.

When the U.S. was still a relatively stable country with competent leaders at the helm, gas prices would remain pretty much stable year after year, save for the annual summer rush and busy holiday seasons....

The Climate Change Committee (CCC) thinks that is better for Britons to "pre-heat" their houses in the afternoon when electricity usage is lower. This was a recommendation included in the sixth "carbon budget" paper, which sets out how the U.K. should reduce its emissions between 2033-37.

"There is significant potential to deliver emissions savings, just by changing the way we use our homes," the dossier also states. "Where homes are sufficiently well insulated, it ...
