They'll claim that Republicans are to blame for lower police morale, because we called attention to the War on Police and that made police sad.

Florida Man arrested for attempting to cross ocean on human-sized hamster wheel.

Coast Guard officials arrested a Florida man after they intercepted his unusual hamster wheel contraption that he was allegedly attempting to 'run' to London.

According to a criminal complaint, 44-year-old Reza Baluchi is facing federal charges after he was rescued 70 miles off Tybee Island, Georgia by coast guard officials. The marathoner was found on August 26 in his bizarre hamster wheel contraption and asked "standard questions."

"Based on the condition of the vessel -- which was afloat as a result of wiring and buoys -- USCG officers determined Baluchi was conducting a manifestly unsafe voyage," the criminal complaint says.

The "manifesting unsafe" vessel is a giant metal drum, with inflatable buoys on each side and paddles that are powered by a runner inside.

The complaint says that Baluchi was unable to provide officials with the required registration for his water vehicle and informed officials that he was running in his hamster wheel all the way to London, England.

He may seem crazy, but he's just a man with a dream.

When Coast Guard officers told Baluchi they were cutting his voyage short, Baluchi threatened to kill himself with a 12-inch knife if anyone tried to apprehend him, and claimed to have a bomb aboard, according to the complaint.

Oh wait he's crazy.

"My goal is to not only raise money for homeless people, raise money for the Coast Guard, raise money for the police department, raise money for the fire department," Baluchi said. "They are in public service, they do it for safety, and they help other people."

No wonder we had a glitch yesterday! This guy stole one of the hamster wheels!

A brand-new propaganda term is being debuted by the leftwing propaganda media:

The UK's economy is surging post-Brexit, destroying the left's propaganda that trade with Slovakia was absolutely critical to the economic well-being of the English.

Ever since the first days of the EU referendum campaign in 2016, the Remain side has been warning us that economic disaster is on the horizon. Time and again, they have reminded us of the near-total 'expert' consensus that leaving the EU would shatter the UK economy. Since we formally left the EU in 2020, elite Remainers have developed a kind of Brexit Tourette's syndrome. Seemingly every economic challenge, from pandemic-induced supply-chain snarl-ups to post-Ukraine energy-price hikes, is now blamed squarely on Brexit.

Britain's GDP figures, in particular, have long been weaponised to the end of undermining Brexit. Mainstream media outlets have relished reporting the UK's relatively slow recovery from the Covid pandemic, compared with other advanced economies. BBC News analysis from January this year claimed that 'The UK is the only major rich economy that remains smaller -- poorer -- than prior to the pandemic and Brexit may be a factor'. In December 2022, the Financial Times sneered that 'Britain is the only G7 economy that remains smaller than it was before the pandemic', which apparently suggested that the 'damage inflicted to the economy's supply side by Covid and Brexit is even larger than previously thought'. Also from the FT, in a slickly produced video called 'The Brexit Effect', public-policy editor Peter Foster pointed to 'the gap between the UK's performance, which has uniquely suffered Brexit, and the performance of other economies which have not'. In fact, as recently as mid-August this year, it was believed that the UK had still not recovered from the pandemic, unlike every other G7 country.

Except last week, Britain's GDP figures were radically revised. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) now says that the UK economy actually recovered from the pandemic recession back in 2021. It turns out that wholesalers and the healthcare sector, in particular, had produced much greater output than previously thought.

These updated figures suggest that the UK economy is as much as two per cent larger than previously believed. This means that the UK can no longer be considered the worst-performing economy in the G7. In fact, post-Brexit, the UK recovered from the pandemic at a similar rate to France and at a faster pace than Germany, Europe's largest economy.

The ONS's revision is extraordinary. As one leading economist put it: 'The entire UK economic narrative -- post-pandemic -- has just been revised away.' The very basis for the Remainer elites' narrative of doom has now been shattered before our eyes.

The sexy, shapely ladies of The View fat-shamed Trump.

And the super-vaxxed Whoopie has covid.

Give them the corporate death penalty -- total boycott.

NEW: America's top gun safe manufacturer, Liberty Safe, gave the FBI an access code to a safe owned by someone who was present at the J6 protest.

We have officially found the Bud Light of gun safes. Enjoy going out of business, @libertysafeinc
.

The situation gets even worse: On August 30, 2023, the FBI raided the owner of the safe, Arkansas man Nathan Hughes who is a friend of the @hodgetwins
.

Not only did they access his safe but the FBI also allegedly turned off his security cameras and held his girlfriend at gun point.

In a statement Liberty Safe confirmed they gave the FBI Hughes' code:

"Liberty Safe was contacted by the FBI requesting the access code to the safe of an individual for whom they had a warrant to search their property..."

"Liberty Safe is devoted to protecting the personal property and 2nd amendment rights of our customers..."

Shameful.
