It is often said that "the first casualty when war comes is truth." A criminal warrant just issued in Germany shows that war continues to claim its victims. However, this warrant could prove to be as great an indictment not just of the government of Volodymyr Zelensky, but also of former President Joe Biden. This week, a German court issued an arrest warrant for Ukrainian Serhii Kuznietsov, which may finally confirm what was long suspected: that Ukraine was responsible for the 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines in the waters near Denmark and Sweden.

Which is better? Release a great debut album then spend the rest of your career trying to match it or consistently improve with each set until you hit the mark? While groups rarely get to choose Orange County’s Lit had it both ways. Debut album “Tripping The Light Fantastic” was an impressive start but hardly earth shaking. Sophomore effort “A Place In The Sun” honed the group’s sound and brought commercial success. “Atomic” arriving in ‘01 stood as Lit’s premier effort. Strong songs augmented by textured arrangements and omni-present hooks capped by angst vocals. Too bad it didn’t match the commercial appeal of “A Place In The Sun.” Back in ‘90, the Popoff brothers, vocalist A. Jay and guitarist Jeremy, got together with bassist Kevin Baldes and drummer Allen Shellenberger. Being the top group in Fullerton, CA, may not seem like much but it was enough to get them a record deal. The Popoff brothers composed all the songs for the group’s debut effort. ‘99 saw the follow-up, “A Place In The Sun,” featuring “My Own Worst Enemy,” “Zip-Lock” and “Miserable,” went platinum. “My Own Worst Enemy” went double platinum. That led to a spot MTV’s Spring Break in Cancun. They had arrived! A Place In The Sun, My Worst Enemy Miserable “Atomic,” out in ‘01, featured “Something To Someone,” which displayed a Punk/Pop vibe with a searing guitar riff, hard charging drums and mournful yet catchy vocals. The set also held “The Last Time Again” and the thrashing “Lipstick And Bruises.” Something To Someone Lipstick And Bruises The album only reached #36 on the Billboard 200 (respectable, but not good enough) and was the band’s last album for RCA – effectively ending Lit’s mainstream success. There was more bad news – and much more serious. Shellenberger was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in ’08 and underwent radiation and chemotherapy treatments. Dozens of musicians donated hand-signed memorabilia and other items to a charity auction to benefit the ailing drummer. Artists who contributed collectibles included Nickelback, Linkin Park, Staind, Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Offspring, Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, and Billy Idol, among others. The self-titled fourth album dropped in ’04. Sadly, it was the band’s final effort with all four original members. Shellenberger passed away in ’09. Issued on the band’s Nitrus Records imprint and DRT Entertainment, “Lit” peaked at #113 on the Billboard 200 but landed at #6 on the Independent Albums chart. Eight years passed before “The View From The Bottom” appeared. The album was dedicated to Shellenberger’s memory with the song “Here’s To Us” being a tribute to him. It was the first album with the rhythm guitarist Ryan Gillmor and the only one with Nathan Walker on drums. There was another lengthy gap between albums. This time though there was only a five year wait for “These Are the Days.”  The ’17 release was a musical departure blending their traditional Alt. Rock with Country Rock. It proved to be the last album with Gillmor who departed following the recording sessions. “Tastes Like Gold,” dropping in ’22, saw the band returning to Alt. Rock full-time. Lit teamed with the band Bowling for Soup in early ’24 for the “Lovin’ The Sun Tour” in Florida. ### The post Lit appeared first on RockinTown.

This should make taxpayers furious. A video that is going viral on social media shows a Muslim woman in Sweden proudly claiming she is destroying Western civilization. In the video the woman states she collects Westerner’s tax payers money and strives to get all of the benefits she is able to receive. Watch the woman here: Here’s a backup video here: MUSLIM WOMAN spells it out for all westerners to hear: “I do not belong here. That’s why I DESTROY and TAKE so much. I collect your tax money, all the benefits you can get, I use them to the max. You can’t do anything about it.” They conquer.pic.twitter.com/e8cBvVVgBy — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 26, 2025 Yemen Online recently reported the Swedish government has launched an investigation into the “Islamist Infiltration” of the country; Sweden’s Minister for Education and Integration, Simona Mohamsson, announced that the government has decided to launch an official investigation into what she described as “Islamist infiltration” in the country, with a particular focus on the activities of the Muslim Brotherhood and their attempts to influence Swedish society and politics, according to Expressen. In her statement, Mohamsson said: “We see that political Islam has taken root, allowing it to dominate neighborhoods, schools, and parts of the welfare system – and even threaten political parties. This is unacceptable. We must confront it with full force.” She stressed that the majority of Muslims in Sweden live in harmony with society, celebrating both Eid al-Fitr and Christmas, watching Arabic dramas as well as SVT programs. However, she noted that ordinary Muslims are the ones most harmed by the rise of Islamists. Islamist immigrants in Sweden debate: “Swedes must accept Sweden is no longer a country of their own. Muslims now make up 20% of the population and growing. We don’t have to change for them, they have to adapt to us.” They are not even hiding anymore! pic.twitter.com/XQK9Fgnskb — Dr. Maalouf ‏ (@realMaalouf) September 3, 2025 Muslim immigrants are not just taking Swedish tax dollars but it’s also happening here in the United States specifically in the state of Minnesota according to the DOJ: Hassan Defrauded Autism Program of $14M, Carried Out Feeding Our Future Fraud, Bought Real Estate in Kenya with Taxpayer Money MINNEAPOLIS – Asha Farhan Hassan, age 28, was charged today by federal information with wire fraud for her role in a $14 million autism fraud scheme. Hassan was also charged with participating in the Feeding Our Future fraud scheme, for which she received $465,000. “Today’s charges mark the first in the ongoing investigation into fraud in the EIDBI Autism Program,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson. “To be clear, this is not an isolated scheme. From Feeding Our Future to Housing Stabilization Services and now Autism Services, these massive fraud schemes form a web that has stolen billions of dollars in taxpayer money. Each case we bring exposes another strand of this network. The challenge is immense, but our work continues.” As set forth in the information, Hassan and others devised and carried out a scheme to defraud the Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (“EIDBI”) benefit, a publicly funded Minnesota Health Care Program that offers medically necessary services to people under the age of 21 with autism spectrum disorder (“ASD”). According to the Minnesota Department of Human Services (“DHS”) website, the purpose of the EIDBI program is “to provide medically necessary, early and intensive intervention for people with ASD and related conditions.” Applied Behavior Analysis, sometimes called “ABA therapy,” is a type of one-on-one behavioral therapy designed to help children on the autism spectrum develop social and emotional skills. ABA therapy seeks to improve social skills by rewarding and reinforcing positive behavior while discouraging negative behavior. The EIDBI benefit covers various treatment options for persons diagnosed with ASD and related conditions, including ABA therapy. EIDBI treatment services must be delivered under the supervision of a Qualified Supervising Professional (or “QSP”) that is employed by the EIDBI provider. In order to qualify for the EIDBI benefit, a person must be under 21 years old; be diagnosed with ASD or a related condition; have had a comprehensive multi-disciplinary evaluation (CMDE) that establishes their medical need for EIDBI services; and be enrolled in a qualifying healthcare program, such as Medicaid. The CMDE is used to develop the person’s individual treatment plan (ITP). An ITP is a personalized, written plan of care that outlines the goals for the person and sets forth the specific interventions the person will receive based on their individual, assessed needs.
