Fleets make economic decisions, but what if drivers had full freedom to spec their interiors?

“I’m [only] 5-foot-2, so getting a seat that conforms to me is very important,” said North Carolinian Ingrid Brown, a truck driver since 1979. “I spent maybe $8,000 spec’ing the interior of my truck,  including a 3,500-watt power inverter, a 26-in.-mounted television, and a full cabinet package with a built-in business center, but it’s absolutely worth it because I live in my truck. I’m there more than I am in my own bed.”   Continue reading “If drivers had a blank check to spec their interiors”

A new report by a human rights organisation has concluded that Israeli troops basically ignored the fact that Palestinian medical staff adhered strictly to international standards while treating demonstrators in Gaza’s Great March of Return protests, and shot them deliberately. This was despite the staff wearing distinct uniforms identifying them as medical personnel, and operating out of medical aid stations and vehicles which were also marked clearly with internationally-recognised symbols. The targeting of the medical staff by Israeli snipers was, claims Al-Mezan Centre for Human Rights, “systematic and deliberate”.   Continue reading “Israel intends to kill civilians and medical staff deliberately, says new report”

How about this for some bullshit?  Attack all the men in the world, but let’s forget that he was illegal and that this government turned a blind eye on these criminals crossing our borders illegally.  Oh no, we can’t have that narrative out there so let’s change that.

The recent wave of censorship of conservative voices on the internet by tech giants Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Apple mirrors a plan concocted by a coalition of George Soros-funded, progressive groups to take back power in Washington from President Trump’s administration.   Continue reading “Leaked 49-page memo documents how George Soros is behind social media censorship”

The Vostok 2018 military exercise in eastern Russia was already billed as Russia’s largest war game since 1981. China’s Defense Ministry announced on Thursday it will send 3,200 troops from the People’s Liberation Army to join over 100,000 Russians in exercises from September 11 to 15.

The Chinese troops will bring at least 900 tanks and 30 aircraft with them. If Russia’s boast of the biggest exercise since the Cold War is accurate, over 1,500 Russian tanks and 120 aircraft will be involved.   Continue reading “Chinese Troops Join Russia’s Biggest Military Exercise Since the Cold War”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Senator John McCain, the maverick Republican who survived a Vietnam War prison camp and ran unsuccessfully for president, is discontinuing medical treatment for an aggressive form of brain cancer, his family said in a statement on Friday, a year after he announced his diagnosis.

“John has surpassed expectations for his survival,” the family said, adding that the disease’s progression and McCain’s age, 81, have led him to stop treatment for the “aggressive glioblastoma.”   Continue reading “Republican Senator McCain ending medical treatment for brain cancer”

Rep. Steve King (R-IA) says “importing millions” of young men from one of the most violent regions in the world, Central and South America, “means death for Americans.”

Following the revelations of the Mollie Tibbetts Iowa murder case — where the 20-year-old young woman was allegedly stabbed to death by an illegal alien from Mexico — King posted online a statement in which he indicates that the United States will only become more violent as more than 1.5 million illegal and legal immigrants, mostly from Central and South America, continue being imported to the country every year.   Continue reading “Steve King: ‘Importing Millions’ of Young Men from Central America ‘Means Death for Americans’”

Hundreds of retail stores and soon thousands are investigating using biometric facial recognition software FaceFirst to build a database of shoplifters to aid in the fight against theft, Peter Trepp CEO of FaceFirst told BuzzFeed News.

The software is called FaceFirst and is designed to scan faces as far as 50 to 100 feet away. As customers walk through a store entrance, the video camera captures repetitious images of each shopper and chooses the clearest one to store. The software then analyzes that image and compares it to a database of “bad customers” that the retailer has compiled; if there is a match, the software sends an alert to store employees that a “high risk” customer has entered the door.   Continue reading “Welcome To The Minority Report: Thousands Of Stores Plan Facial Recognition Use For Anti-Theft”
