  1. this reminds me of my very Republican state I live in, which I moved to from an even more republican state. over the last 10 years I've documented a lot of the fraud waste and abuse, written letters to the culprits, and a lot of the con artists that have grown rich, were all elected into the highest positions of power, by their republican worshipers. also the Nazis from one state have moved here and been supported more, scary scary scary. I'll never forget a republican woman handing me the 2010 jerrymandering map they just did, she was so proud, I wanted to vomit. I'm a democrat, always have been. And I realized then how dangerous it is to do anything without always protecting my own safety. 2020 elections caused most of my friends to leve my company and this state. I'm all alone in my scientific work. My anonymity is my only protection when surrounded by these kinds of authoritarian religious worshipers. They too are also elected due to their religious follower base. like you describe. there is supposed to be a separation of church and state and here the connection between the two is so overgrown i can't find any differences. I help the FBI when I can, but even that can change after an election, so I can't open myself up to the next elected official who might use the FBI against me, while now the FBI is finally punishing domestic threats. It's a scary time in the USA, same I see in Lebanon.

  2. Remember Trump definitively stating it was a bomb? Even though it was 2.7 kilotons of boom and the only non-nuclear explosions that big are ship explosions like the ones at Halifax and Texas City. Seriously, these are a thousand times bigger than any bomb.
    Trump remains an idiot.

  3. Nobody cares about the stupid war in Ukraine… Except for the 180 people that commented on your video LOL… 100,000 views and only 180 people cared to comment and 80% of them are Russian bots… Vice turned into the dumpster of the internet that used to be cool man…

  4. Everyone watching this video is going to die at some point and each of you will answer to God for every idle word spoken, deed done by your hands and the motivation behind it.

    Now, the evidence for this is that even if you say you don't believe me, your conscience bears witness that I speak the truth and you know there is a creator to whom you will answer to one day. Are you ready? Your "good actions" you rely on are detestable to God, lest you try to negotiate your way into Heaven. Only by grace and through faith shall you receive salvation.

    Seek Christ while you still can, only He can forgive your sins. Repent and be born again, of water and the Holy Spirit. I say this without judgement and in absolute love when I tell you that Jesus is the light of the world, in Him there is no darkness…

  5. I'm not sure how powerful or successful it is a fertilizer….
    As for use as an explosive… it's amazing…. more amazing… it just sat there for years without any prior incidents… maybe it's like dynamite the older the more sensitive it gets

  6. This looks like a ICBM attack. They call it kinetic kill. The missile will come from space with a speed so high it’s like a falling star. Up on impact the kinetic energy is higher than the force that’s holding the war head it just evaporated to molecular level that is why you see a white or pink cloud leaving no evidence of the missile. The fire is just a decoy, the evidence is just the perfect circle of the impact point. It’s simply physics.
    Someone just wants to destroy that ammonium nitride.
