๐ฑ๐ง Insane CCTV footage of the 2020 Beirut port explosion that killed 218 peopleโฆ this just shows the shockwave.
2,750 tons of improperly stored ammonium nitrate was the cause, in one of the largest non-nuclear detonations ever recorded.

๐จ๐จ THEYโRE QUIETLY ADMITTING IT NOW: A โONCE-IN-A-LIFETIMEโ STORM IS ABOUT TO HIT HALF THE U.S. - AND IT COULD TURN CATASTROPHIC
"This is gonna be one of those storms you probably remember for much of your life."
Matt Randolph, a renowned energy expert and Forbes energy contributor, breaks down a forecast that was dismissed all weekโฆ until every major model converged.
He says this isnโt โjust a snowstorm.โ
Itโs an infrastructure event: below-zero temperatures, heavy snow, and an ice zone calling for up to THREE INCHES OF ICE.
โThereโs gonna be loss of life.โ
โThe gridโs gonna fail. Refineries are gonna shut down.
Water systems are gonna shut down.โ
Then the part most people arenโt hearing:
โIf youโre in the affected area, you should plan to be without power for at least a week, maybe a month.โ
At that level, roads turn to glass and emergency services wonโt be able to reach you. No ambulances. No fire trucks. No emergency services will be able to help.
Randolph compares it to Texas 2021 and says this could be colder, wider, and harder to recover from.
Where are you located, and are you actually prepared to be without power for 7โ30 days?

Grab the popcorn
This is Trumpโs long game.
Weโve spent years cracking down on fraudsters. Itโs a serious issue - but this has been his plan all along.
Heโs politicizing the issue to defund programs that help Minnesotans.
We have frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota.
You have probably read the serious allegations that the state of Minnesota has funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to fraudulent daycares across Minnesota over the past decade.
Today we have taken three actions against the blatant fraud that appears to be rampant in Minnesota and across the country:
1. I have activated our defend the spend system for all ACF payments. Starting today, all ACF payments across America will require a justification and a receipt or photo evidence before we send money to a state.
2. Alex Adams and I have identified the individuals in @nickshirleyy's excellent work. I have demanded from @GovTimWalz a comprehensive audit of these centers. This includes attendance records, licenses, complaints, investigations, and inspections.
3. We have launched a dedicated fraud-reporting hotline and email address at https://t.co/rqjoFUD3kZ Whether you are a parent, provider, or member of the general public, we want to hear from you.
We have turned off the money spigot and we are finding the fraud.
