Liberal Media FAKES Unity As Trump Gains Support – Quisha King

The following article, Why Did It Take The Secret Service So Long To Protect Trump? (Video), was first published on Conservative Firing Line. The more we learn about the attempt to kill Donald Trump, the more questions we have.  Over the past couple of days, I have been digging very deeply into what just happened.  To be honest, what I have discovered is extremely alarming.  At this point, there is a growing consensus that either the Secret Service … Continue reading Why Did It Take The Secret Service So Long To Protect Trump?

We’ve all heard the statistic that “50% of marriages end in divorce” at least once in our adult lives. And considering that many of us probably know a few couples that have gotten divorced (including our own parents) we probably never gave its validity much of a second thought. But romantics, rejoice! For this cynical statistic is, irrefutably, false. Recently comedian Alex Falcone took to TikTok to debunk this commonly believed myth. In a now viral video, Falcone begins by saying that “first of all, it’s a dumb thing to measure,” because “until the 1970s, divorce law was very different. So really, it would have been a measurement of what percentage of couples are trapped in bad situations.”What makes this a “dumb statistic,” Falcone continues, is that it doesn’t consider the duration of any marriage—from “the couple that held hands while the water came in on the Titanic counts exactly the same as someone who got hit by a bus on their honeymoon” to the “overachievers” who are “really good” at getting married and divorced over and over again. Essentially, “if someone gets divorced five times, they get counted five times,” Falcone says. It’s easy to see how this can set the statistic askew very quickly. But truly, the biggest Achilles' heel of this truism is that it’s nearly impossible to truly “track every single marriage that's ever happened” to accurately determine how they ended, be it divorce or death…not to mention track the ones that are still going strong. @alex_falcone Unlearning: No, 50% of marriages don't end in divorce. ♬ original sound - Alex Falcone Of course, you don’t have to take Falcone’s word for it. Experts have been debunking this myth for years (of course, they haven't done it in nearly as entertaining a way as Falcone). According to the New York Times, the highest the divorce rate has ever been was 41%. Elsewhere there are estimates closer to 23%.And the United States Census Bureau states that divorce rates have been declining over the past decade. We can thank certain societal shifts for this, like people waiting until later in life to get married, and the rise of long term, non-marital relationships. In 2021, the rate was just under 7%. Again, no tangible ways of getting an accurate assessment, but certainly nowhere near 50%.So how did this myth come to be in the first place? The prevailing theory leads back to post-World War II, when the Baby Boomer generation began marrying and starting families, during which there were projections that divorce rates would eventually get that high. So far, they never have.Bottom line: statistics aren’t always reliable. This is an especially important thing for couples to remember so as to not invoke some kind of self-fulling prophecy. After all, we are far more well-equipped with knowledge and resources to help strengthen our relationships than ever before. So don’t give up on love just yet!

What in the world has been happening in Rancho Palos Verdes?  When I heard that the land was “moving” there, it immediately got my attention, because I have been warning about geological instability along the California coast for more than a decade.  What is taking place has been described as an ongoing “landslide”, but that term simply does not do it justice.  Others are calling what we are witnessing “land movement” on a massive scale, and I think that is much more accurate.  According to FOX 11 in southern California, this “land movement” is breaking gas lines, cracking roads and causing homes to sink… According to experts, land movement in Rancho Palos Verdes continues to accelerate. As a result, roads and homes continue to crack and sink. On Friday, FOX 11 exclusively joined Alpha Structural to view the land movement up close in a neighborhood near Portuguese Bend. “You have to think to yourself, this isn’t real,” said Damien Hammond, from Alpha Structural. “That’s how I feel here. I feel like I’m on a movie set, but in reality, this is 25 peoples’ homes.” That last quote really nailed it. At this point, Rancho Palos Verdes really does look like it belongs on the set of a science fiction movie. This is a slow-motion natural disaster that authorities are powerless to stop, and the damage is getting worse with each passing day. If you visit Rancho Palos Verdes you will discover that there is a giant “chasm” that is now running right through the middle of a neighborhood… Drone video from the Alpha Structural team shows essentially a giant crack cutting through the neighborhood. “This whole part just pulled away from over here, opened up a chasm,” said Joe Demers, a civil engineer with Alpha Structural. “This whole area moved about 5 feet in the last year or so, but then it really accelerated. In the last couple months, it’s moved another 4 or 5 feet.” I have never heard of anything quite like this.  This is something that you really need to see for yourself… Normally, authorities will get concerned if the ground in a particular area is moving a few inches a year. In this case, the ground is literally moving about a foot per week… Within the last year or so, experts believe some areas have dropped more than 12 feet. Recently, experts have said the land is moving about 12 inches per week. A total drop of more than 12 feet is quite dramatic. So what is going to happen if the land continues to drop? Already, so much land has moved that a “stunning new stretch of shoreline” has appeared… Even still, months after the movement began, earth continues to shift, creating an unexpected and stunning new stretch of shoreline near Rancho Palos Verdes. “Somebody said, ‘Oh, you know there’s a new beach.’ It’s not really a beach yet,” said city geologist Mike Phipps. “A beach typically has sand on it. This is just literally landslide debris, a lot of rocks being pushed up and out of the surf.” This didn’t happen over millions of years. This happened in just six months… A few month’s difference is astonishing when viewing side-by-side photos of the shoreline pre-2024 and six months later, with a few hundred feet of new rocky shore that formed as the land continues to move, piling up under the water’s edge. “What’s happening is, the ground is rising up and coming up, right through the ocean and lifting it up out of the ocean,” Phipps said. Is this yet another sign that we are entering a time of increased geological instability for the state of California? For years, I have warned that it is just a matter of time before “the Big One” arrives, and the clock is ticking. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of fish have been dying and washing up on shore in northern California… Hundreds of thousands of lifeless fish have washed up on the shores of California’s Lake San Antonio in an unprecedented mass die-off affecting a wide variety of species. The deaths began last week, when smaller baitfish were found at the water’s edge on Friday, but in the days since, larger and larger species of fish have also washed up on the lake’s beaches. “It seems like every fish species in the lake is being impacted. We have never seen this type of multispecies die-off, especially on this scale,” Bryan Flores, Monterey County chief of parks, told SFGATE. Authorities don’t seem to know why this is happening, and I don’t know why this is happening either. Before I end this article, I wanted to mention a couple of other very strange natural events that have taken place recently. Firstly, on Tuesday a meteor spectacularly exploded over Midtown Manhattan at 11:15 in the morning… A meteor soared over the Statue of Liberty before disintegrating about 30 miles above Midtown Manhattan on Tuesday morning, according to NASA. The space rock passed through the atmosphere over the Big Apple around 11:15 a.m. — the same time New Yorkers reported seeing a flash of fire streak across the sky and felt the ground lightly shaking beneath their feet. Why didn’t our scientists see this meteor coming in advance? And what would have happened if the meteor had been much larger and had made it all the way to the ground? Secondly, earlier this month Hurricane Beryl slammed into the state of Texas, and it literally removed the head of a famous pro-abortion statue in Houston… As Beryl stormed across Texas leaving millions without power, one particular point of destruction has some saying it was an act of God. Taking up residence at the University of Houston following its reveal in New York City, the satanic, pro-abortion statue “Witness” was found beheaded in the aftermath of Beryl. So many really weird things have been occurring lately. Have you noticed that too? Unfortunately, I am entirely convinced that things are going to get even weirder during the very difficult months and years that are ahead of us.
