This is DISGUSTING and FAKE. A complete LIE.

Shame on the Washington Post — they’re worse than Iranian state media.

James Talarico says "God is nonbinary." He believes there are 6 genders. We need YOU to help sack the Radical Left and their extreme agenda. Step up and make your plan to VOTE to defeat Talarico.

They made Aslan rainbow and gave him a woman’s voice not as a creative choice but to blaspheme Jesus Christ.

C.S. Lewis did not write Aslan as an allegory for Christ. He wrote him as a supposal: what the Son of God would look like if He were in Narnia. Changing that character into a political mascot is a desecration of Lewis’s work and of Christ Himself.

They do not do this to Muhammad. They do not do this to Vishnu. They do it to Jesus because they know exactly who He is. He is God.

BREAKING: The holdout juror in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial has broken his silence, saying eight fellow jurors behaved like “activists” who wanted her found not guilty on Day 1.

Michael Desronvil said he concluded Clancy was guilty based on the evidence presented in court.

@MZHemingway @Heminator You are blessed! I felt the same way about my beloved husband. I lost him to cancer after 39 years. Not forever; I know I'll see him again in heaven. 🙌🏻
Enjoy every moment. Happy Anniversary! God bless you both with many more years together. I

Good stuff right here!!

I hope this Biker group increases 100 fold and goes to other cities overrun with Mosques and Muslims.

🚨#BREAKING: A TV station is now digging through the PRIVATE LIFE of the lone, Black male HOLDOUT JUROR from the Lindsay Clancy trial... publicizing his divorce, his family disputes, even his eviction...

...because he refused to acquit Lindsay Clancy!!!!

Yes, they are TEARING HIS PRIVATE LIFE APART for this, but have done ZERO investigating on the private lives of the OTHER jurors.

One man, after a week of deliberation, would not sign off on a verdict he didn't believe in and that (by the way) is the WHOLE POINT of a jury.

We literally instruct jurors: do not cave.

Who is ever going to hold out EVER AGAIN???!!!!

Who's going to risk being the one honest "no" when they know the punishment is having their entire life ripped open on the news?!!!!

They are literally attempting to DESTROY the jury system with fear.

A verdict you disagree with is not a crime and a citizen who does his duty should not have his life destroyed for it.

This is absolutely insane.

Generations of Texans have invested billions of dollars into UT. Today it is filled with foreign nationals and Leftists who boo Ted Cruz.

John Cornyn says we should accept decline. The voters I talk to want to return our institutions to serving the interests of citizens.

Not only have the other jurors spent a week publicly insulting the lone black man, but remember that they also tried to have him physically removed from the jury. AND the defense attorney filed a legal motion accusing him of bigotry. This is precisely the kind of scenario that the Left has fantasized about for years. Now it finally happens but they accidentally sided with the white people. Phenomenal.

I find these World Trade Center simulations by Kostack Studio fascinating because they remove the smoke and let you see the collapse much more clearly.

In the real footage, so much is hidden by fire, dust, debris, distance, and chaos that many people come away with the impression that the towers simply dropped straight down into their own footprints.

But that is not really what happened.

These simulations make it much easier to see that the collapse begins in the heavily damaged and fire-weakened region, the upper section starts moving and tilting, and the destruction then propagates downward through the structure.

The towers do not simply disappear vertically into their own footprints. Large portions of the upper structure and exterior are moving outward and to the side as the collapse develops. Much of that motion is simply obscured in the real videos once the enormous debris cloud forms.

And this is also why I find these simulations useful when people describe the collapses as looking like “controlled demolition.”

Strip away the smoke and dust and the resemblance becomes much less convincing.

What you see is a highly asymmetric structural failure beginning around the aircraft-damaged and fire-affected floors, followed by an enormous moving mass progressively overwhelming the structure beneath it. There is tilting, rotation, exterior columns peeling away, debris being thrown far outside the building footprint, and structural failure occurring chaotically as the collapse moves downward.

That is very different from the neat mental image usually implied by “controlled demolition,” where structural supports are deliberately severed in a carefully timed sequence to produce a predetermined collapse.

And importantly, we already know what preceded these collapses.

Both towers suffered massive aircraft-impact damage. Fireproofing was stripped from portions of the structure. Large, uncontrolled fires then burned across multiple floors - for about 56 minutes in the South Tower and about 102 minutes in the North Tower - heating and weakening structural components until collapse initiated.

Once that upper mass began moving, the loads imposed on the floors and structure beneath became vastly greater than anything they had been designed to carry.

The result was progressive collapse.

No, an animation is not proof simply because it looks convincing, and these are not official NIST simulations. They are visualizations built under particular assumptions.

But as visualizations, I think they are extremely useful.

They let you see something the original footage often cannot show clearly: beneath that enormous cloud of smoke and debris was a complicated, violent, asymmetric structural failure - not two buildings neatly dropping straight down into their own footprints.

A note on the simulation: this is not intended to reproduce the collapse down to the exact motion of every beam, floor panel, and fragment of debris. No practical simulation could do that. Its value is in modeling the large-scale structural behavior - how the major sections deform, move, tilt, separate, and progressively fail. Think of it as a visualization of the mechanics and overall collapse behavior, not a frame-by-frame reconstruction of where every piece of steel ultimately landed.
