Charleston, South Carolina, investigators have released their findings in the death of Boeing whistleblower John Barnett, who was found dead in his truck in March after he failed to show up for his second day of depositions in a lawsuit against the aerospace manufacturer.

After Barnett failed to arrive for the proceedings, his lawyers called for a wellness check, and he was found with a gunshot wound to the head in the parking lot of his hotel, according to authorities.

He had a pistol in his right hand, and investigators later confirmed gunshot residue on his hand. They found a single shell casing in the truck and a suicide note on his passenger seat.

"All findings were consistent with a self-inflicted gunshot wound," the report from Charleston County Coroner Bobbi Jo O'Neal reads.

As Russia Advances, NATO Considers Sending Trainers Into Ukraine

NATO allies are inching closer to sending troops into Ukraine to train Ukrainian forces, a move that would be another blurring of a previous red line and could draw the United States and Europe more directly into the war.

Ukraine’s manpower shortage has reached a critical point, and its position on the battlefield in recent weeks has seriously worsened as Russia has accelerated its advances to take advantage of delays in shipments of American weapons. As a result, Ukrainian officials have asked their American and NATO counterparts to help train 150,000 new recruits closer to the front line for faster deployment.

So far the United States has said no, but Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on Thursday that a NATO deployment of trainers appeared inevitable. “We’ll get there eventually, over time,” he said.

EXCERPT

I've got mixed feelings about this.  It's probably way too late in the game to do this now.

How about letting the Ukrainians field test them against the Russians?

I think they have been.

‘Republicans’ who endorse Biden aren’t Republicans at all

In anticipation of what will likely be another major liberal media narrative during this election cycle, it must be said: Republicans who support President Joe Biden are not Republicans in any meaningful way.

This was an obnoxious media narrative in 2020, which saw Biden trot out several former Republicans at the Democratic National Convention so he could posture as a centrist for voters. Many of those Republicans who backed Biden admitted to being played, given that Biden never contacted them after his election win, an enlightening bout of incompetence that explains exactly why an agitator like former President Donald Trump managed to take over the GOP by railing against a failed old guard establishment.

But it is in liberal media’s interest to pretend that Republicans who back Biden and condemn the entire existing GOP are still Republicans because it feeds into the narrative that Biden is the grand uniter who is willing to cross the aisle. That is why the Hill has compiled a list of “prominent Republicans” who are backing Biden: former RNC Chairman Michael Steele, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, and former Trump staffer Sarah Matthews.

It is hard to be impressed by the list. Steele hasn’t worked in GOP politics since 2011 and works for MSNBC. Both Kinzinger and Duncan walked out of their jobs right into gigs at another anti-Republican network in CNN. Calling Matthews “prominent” after serving as deputy press secretary for seven months is laughable outside of the circles of Washington, D.C., politicos.

1. Well China sure does believe in Solar.

2. I am also a member of a coop for power and have been getting the credit 2014. Has nothing to do with solar. Several reasons. They charged you more than they anticipated/needed and you get the money back as a credit. When I signed up in our co-op in 1994 they said I would get my first credit back in 20 years

Solar prices are dropping in this country every year and the  systems improve very year
What latitude? How much agricultural land is going to be put out of production (and yes I have seen that). Is that the reason TPTB want us eating bugs--so the cattle don't rub against the solar arrays?
