How about living in a former missile silo in Nebraska? Only $550,000!

The realtor even has a sense of humor:

A BLAST from the past and built to last! This 6.19 acre decommissioned Atlas-F missile complex once housed America’s first breed of ICBM’s. The missile was stored vertically underground in a super-hardened silo designed to withstand a nuclear attack, and today it can be yours for a fraction of the original cost. The facility consists of a 2 story underground Launch Command Center/residence with 1256 sq. ft. on each floor. The first level is completely livable with electricity, hot & cold running water, toilet, bathtub, 4 – 500 gallon water storage tanks fed by 1 of 2 on site wells, heat, and kitchen & dining. The lower level has 1256 sq. ft. of unfinished space with a 40’ tunnel that leads to the actual silo. This incredible structure is 174 ft. deep and 52 ft. across with reinforced concrete walls 2.5 ft. thick at the bottom and up to 9 ft thick on top with 2 massive launch doors weighing in excess of 50 tons. Talk about security! Unlimited possibilities.

"Pro-life" in America



June 21, 2022

Do you believe that a politician will be killed by fanatics within the next year?

It seems like the right is pushing things in that direction, even turning on their own. There's a fraction of them that are blood-thirsty and we know about the Gretchen Whitmer plot.

How long until the worst happens?

One of America's greatest problems summarized in a chart

I'm sure this has been posted before in various ways, but this illustrates what has gone so drastically wrong, and politicians (mostly on the right, IMO) have facilitated it:




Something MUST be done to reverse that. Taxing billionaires more sounds enticing to me, and Joe Biden has been touting exactly that. Go Joe!!

The GOP moves further toward promoting hate and racism

This would be the Carl Paldino/Elise Stefanik edition. Just sick stuff. Link below the tweet to a NY Times article reporting the hateful remarks in 2016.

EDIT: He's from Buffalo and running in NY.
