Former President Donald Trump recently criticized Gov. Kemp’s and Secretary of State Raffensperger’s handling of the 2020 election results while at a rally in Georgia. Republicans in Georgia are concerned it will turn Georgians off and keep them from voting for Mr. Trump. However, Trump did offer an opening for a reconciliation. It looks like […] The post Gov.

Reba McEntire is making headlines everywhere with her new hit single I Can’t. The country star and actress has stolen hearts nationwide for decades and is now at it again with her new single. Two weeks ago, the star took to YouTube to share her music video for the new song. Watch the music video for Reba McEntire’s I Can’t below. Reba McEntire’s New Single “I Can’t” The video starts off with Reba in a form-fitting black leather outfit as she lounges on a rock in a Western setting. The song starts with the following verse: “I’ve got the thunder in my bonesI’ve got the trouble in my soulDrowning in tears, my eyes were too proud to cryI hear you knockin’ at my door, but I can’t open it no more‘Cause this heart’s half full of rain and risin’ highSometimes all that you can do is just survive” As the music video progresses, various dancers appear and begin swaying their bodies gracefully. The colors and scenery darken bringing intensity to the scene as Reba sings the following lyrics: “So, let go the anchor, let go the chainDon’t reach for me and don’t call my nameShake off the past and, baby, just swim for the shore (whoa)Blow me a kiss and hope for the bestWish what you will and take what you getDo what you want but I can’t save you no more, whoa” A Song About Self-Growth Later, the music video intensifies even further as it darkens more and a lightening storm appears. As rain begins to pour down on Reba McEntire, her lyrics capture the music video’s massive shift in tone and setting. She sings: “I got the thunder in my bonesI got the trouble in my soulDrownin’ in tears my eyes were too proud to cryI can’t whisper a prayer right nowI can’t whisper a prayer right nowI’m too busy, baby, sayin’ goodbye” Even with the storm raging, flowers begin to bloom from the ground. Showing that even in the darkest times, beauty and growth can still exist. We agree with Country Now so much when they say, “The powerful music video perfectly captures the anthem’s narrative of realizing it’s time to prioritize and heal oneself before helping others.” The Star Shares Her Song On Instagram Reba McEntire has been promoting her new single on Instagram, telling fans to go out and listen now.

If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim The Net. The 9th Circuit US Court of Appeals ruled this week in favor of Meta, Facebook’s parent company. The case was brought forward by the Children’s Health Defense (CHD) over allegations that the social media giant violated free speech rights. The lawsuit, initiated in August 2020 and later updated in December, claimed that Facebook, along with its CEO Mark Zuckerberg and two fact-checking entities, Science Feedback, and the Poynter Institute’s PolitiFact site, was complicit in an unconstitutional act of privately exercising governmental censorship. CHD alleges that Facebook, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other federal institutions, is censoring content and discussions that the government is barred from suppressing under the First Amendment. We obtained a copy of the opinion for you here. The plaintiff specifically accused these sides of working in tandem to unfairly stifle valid attempts to discuss vaccine safety on Facebook, often through indirect yet sensorial measures like the use of warning labels. According to CHD, this type of arrangement between public entities and private corporations represents a breach of the First Amendment due to its perceived status as “state action.” Despite these arguments, the 9th Circuit court concluded that CHD was not successful in meeting the initial requirement for state action, as the censorship inflicted was more a result of Meta’s content moderation policies and not any directive under federal law. Further, the court also asserted that CHD did not present any evidence of a binding agreement requiring Facebook to execute any particular action in response to misinformation about vaccines. Although all judges did not share the same opinion, Circuit Judge Daniel P. Collins presented a partially dissenting viewpoint. He opined that the interactions between Meta and the Government involving the suppression of specific types of vaccine-related speech were substantial enough to evoke First Amendment considerations. Expressing disappointment and worry, CHD CEO Mary Holland stated, “If we cannot stop the government’s joint action with Big Tech to censor unwanted information, our First Amendment is a pyrrhic victory — it means almost nothing in our real world of social media.” While she was pleased with the non-unanimous nature of the decision, Holland hinted at the possibility of appealing to the US Supreme Court after further review. At the heart of the court battle, ongoing for almost four years, were claims, primarily leveled by CHD’s then-Chairman and Chief Executive Counsel, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., that tactics employed by the US Government to pressure Facebook into censoring vaccine “misinformation” were existential threats.

Walz' Former Superior: He 'Quit' Rather Than Deploy, And Went Over My Head to Get Out

The southern polar vortex is currently showing rare signs of extreme instability, leading to fears that it could collapse, bringing both icy blasts and extreme heatwaves to the southern hemisphere. Likewise, the northern polar vortex had yet another wild winter this year, and with climate change set to intensify these perilous polar patterns, we could be in for some increasingly dramatic weather in the years to come.The polar vortices are strong stratospheric air currents that circulate over the Arctic and Antarctic during the winter months, trapping cold air above the poles. They are surrounded and enclosed by the jet streams, which act like barriers that prevent this icy polar air from spreading into the mid-latitudes.However, every now and then, the stratosphere above the Arctic experiences a dramatic increase in temperature and pressure, destabilizing the northern polar vortex and causing it to split, change direction or collapse. When this occurs, the jet stream tends to become warped, allowing icy Arctic winds to encroach further south than they usually would, while warm air is drawn into the polar region.When the polar vortex destabilizes, icy polar air moves into the mid-latitudes. Image credit: zombiu26/Shutterstock.comKnown as sudden stratospheric warming (SSW), this phenomenon caused the big freeze that gripped parts of the US in 2019. In early 2024, fluctuations in stratospheric pressure caused the northern polar vortex to change direction twice, bringing cold snaps to the northern hemisphere, although neither event was strong enough to significantly alter the shape of the jet stream.Down in Antarctica, however, SSWs are much less common, with the only known instance occurring in 2002. Yet that could be about to change, with a series of stratospheric temperature increases since last month raising fears that the southern polar vortex could be about to split.The first of these was detected in mid-July, when wind speeds in the vortex slowed from their typical velocity of 300 kilometers per hour to just 230 kilometers per hour (186 to 143 miles per hour). This was accompanied by a temperature spike of about 20 degrees Celsius (36 Fahrenheit) above the average.While these fluctuations were insufficient to trigger an SSW, they were followed by a second slowdown as temperatures rose once again in early August. This event has resulted in cold Antarctic air escaping from the polar region and blasting parts of Australia, New Zealand, and South America with wet and icy weather.At the same time, warm air from the mid-latitudes has been able to push south into Antarctica, triggering a record-breaking heatwave. It’s currently unclear how the situation will play out, with some predictions suggesting the southern polar vortex may soon stabilize, while other models hint at a drastic collapse. In the latter scenario, a destabilized jet stream will most likely disrupt another weather system called the southern annular mode, sending it into what’s known as a negative phase. This would then result in an exceptionally dry and hot summer across Australasia and South America.At present, scientists are uncertain what causes the polar vortices to destabilize in such a manner, although there’s growing evidence to suggest that rising global temperatures due to human-induced climate change may be involved. For instance, a study published this month provides evidence that declining Antarctic sea ice is associated with slower stratospheric wind speeds, highlighting the role that rising ocean temperatures play in messing with the polar vortices.Furthermore, while Arctic sea ice has been in drastic decline for years, the situation at the southern pole was until recently thought to be relatively stable. Yet a worrying decline over the past few years has suggested that both poles may now be in a state of extreme flux, with possibly massive implications for the polar vortices.
