In this episode, Corbell and Knapp revealed what they call the Baghdad Phantom UAP.

Here is their breakdown (images released are below):

A Summary

Here is the press release sent out by Corbell and Knapp, first published on WeaponizedPodcast.com.

Investigative journalists Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp obtained and are revealing for the first time, US military filmed UFO footage from an active conflict zone; imaged by the US Air Force using a Reaper drone.

At least 15 people have been killed, with dozens missing after torrential rains and landslides hit Indonesia's Natuna region on the edge of the South China Sea. Pictures and video from the national disaster mitigation agency (BNPB) showed landslides cascading through forested areas and dumping mud and debris on houses on the remote Serasan island. Bits of metal from torn-off roofs and fallen trees were also visible following the disaster on Monday. The location of the landslide and continued rain were complicating search and rescue efforts, the BNPB said on Twitter. Communications had also been cut off, it said. The Natuna Search and Rescue Agency's head, Abdul Rahman, told the AFP news agency that 15 people had been confirmed dead and 50 were missing.

After back-to-back winter storms overwhelmed many of California's mountain communities with snow, another round of snowfall is headed to the Sierra Nevada region, while the state's hard-hit southern San Bernardino County will get a reprieve as some residents who remain trapped by walls of snow are concerned about their dwindling supplies. The Sierra Nevada mountain range could see 1 to 3 inches of snow through Tuesday, following a weekend that brought as much as 38 inches of snow over a 24-hour period to Soda Springs in Nevada County and 31 inches to Donner Peak in Placer County.

A 31-year-old woman who admitted to having sex with a 13-year-old boy and getting pregnant with his child will serve no jail time, according to reports. "I feel like if she was a man, and he was a little girl, it would definitely be different," the victim's mother said. "They would be seeking more. I feel like because he is not a woman, they are not. They are having compassion for her." The Fountain Police Department in Colorado arrested Andrea Serrano in June 2022 on felony charges of sexual assault on a child by one in a position of trust and sexual assault on a child.

An Idaho family was lucky to escape an attack by an angry moose while they were out on their snowmobiles in the Palisades, east of Idaho Falls. Jeremiah Bigelow posted the incident on his Instagram account, describing how the moose came between him and his brother, who was ahead of him, on the trail they were riding. The moose initially charged Jeremiah, who had his son and other friends behind him. Jeremiah quickly put his snowmobile in reverse but got stuck as his son's snowmobile did not have a reverse gear. Jeremiah's brother realized that Jeremiah was stuck and tried to draw the moose's attention away from the group, thinking he could quickly speed away. But right as he jumps back on the snowmobile, it dies, and he is forced to dive to his safety, narrowly avoiding the charging moose.

The former president congratulated Tucker Carlson for what he called one of the biggest journalistic "scoops" in US history. Most of those who made their way into the US Capitol on January 6, 2021 are "totally innocent," former US President Donald Trump has insisted after Fox News host Tucker Carlson published new footage of the events. Carlson had earlier been granted access by Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to more than 40,000 hours of security video records from the Capitol on the day of the riots. On Monday, the Fox News host shared some of those clips on his program, showing Trump's supporters behaving peacefully inside the US Congress in Washington, DC.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday slammed International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi for saying attacks on nuclear facilities are "outlawed." Israel has a history of launching covert attacks against Iranian nuclear facilities, and Netanyahu has been threatening to take more overt action. US officials have also said President Biden will keep a military option on the table to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon even though the Pentagon and CIA recently acknowledged Tehran is not seeking a bomb. Grossi just returned from a visit to Iran, where he secured a pledge for the IAEA to receive more access to Iranian nuclear facilities. When asked about the US and Israeli threats, Grossi said that "any military attack on a nuclear facility is outlawed, is out of the normative structures that we all abide by."

This past month a poll held by ABC and the Washington Post with a 37 year history asked Americans if they were better or worse off in the two years since Biden entered the White House. If you were to ask Biden this question, you would be regaled with a flurry of great news about a fantastic economic recovery, epic jobs numbers, falling inflation and a dropping deficit. When you ask actual average citizens, you get a much different reply. According to the ABC/Post poll, Americans say they are worse off than they have ever been, with the most negative data in the history of the survey. Over 40% of respondents indicated their financial situation was worse under Biden. Only 16% of people said they were better off. Not only that, but 60% of Democrats polled said they did NOT want Joe Biden as their candidate in 2024, and 62% of all people polled said they would be disappointed or even angry if Biden remained in the White House for a second term. This is astounding. How does one...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that he will appoint an "Independent special rapporteur," who he says will have a "wide mandate and will make expert recommendations on combating interference and strengthening our democracy" amid allegations that his government ignored recommendations from CSIS noting concerns about candidates' connections to the Chinese Communist Party. "In the last couple of weeks, Canadians have been reading and hearing a lot" about foreign interference by China in elections, Trudeau said.

The mother of two children who were given COVID-19 vaccines without the mother's consent is suing the doctor who administered the vaccines. An attorney representing NaTonya McNeil last week filed a lawsuit in Superior Court for the District of Columbia against Janine A. Rethy, M.D., M.P.H. According to the complaint, on Sept. 2, 2022, McNeil took her two older children, ages 15 and 17, to the KIDS Mobile Medical Clinic/Ronald McDonald Care Mobile clinic, operated by Georgetown Hospital, to complete their required annual physical exam for the 2022-2023 school year.

A septuagenarian woman in Telangana died after she was attacked by a troop of more than 20 monkeys. The victim, has been identified as 70-year old Chataraboina Narsavva of Ramareddy village in Kamareddy district. The incident took place while the victim was cleaning utensils at her home on Friday. Local sources said that the victim was all alone at home as her youngest daughter Suguna had gone to attend a wedding function at the time. Despite Narsavva's cries for help, the fear-stricken neighbours made no attempt to go to her rescue. They shut themselves inside their houses until the monkeys fled. The old woman suffered serious injuries on her chest, back and limbs. It was only after Suguna returned home a little while later that the old woman was taken to hospital. Narsavva, however, succumbed to her injuries on Saturday while undergoing treatment at the hospital.

The Committee on the Judiciary has issued a subpoena to former Disinformation Governance Board head Nina Jankowicz, compelling her to appear before the Committee on April 10, 2023. In a letter to Jankowicz, Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan, said that the Committee is "conducting oversight of the so-called 'Disinformation Governance Board.'" The Committee intends to look into the Board's "creation, its activities, and related matters." Jordan said, "We have repeatedly sought information from you concerning your official actions and duties as a DHS employee and former Executive Director of the Board, including how the Board intended to define disinformation, how it planned to collect information and from what sources, how it anticipated countering disinformation, and how it proposed to protect First Amendment rights." Jordan noted that the Judiciary Committee had requested Jankowicz's "voluntary cooperation" in May 2022, but and again requested documentation in December 2022, January,...

Struggling with debt can be overwhelming. Fortunately, there are several ways out. Various debt relief companies work to lower your debt and eventually clear it, granting you financial freedom. They will come to you with awfully tempting offers. However, tread carefully. Do not let the desire to clear your dent make you fall victim to debt relief scams.

There are many cases of cons advertising debt relief companies to take advantage of people struggling with debts. In the end, they may leave you deeper in debt. With numerous factors to consider and decisions to make, separating scam from legit can be tricky. If you wonder is debt relief a scam, or is it legitimate?

Here is the truth about Freedom Debt Relief and how to identify debt relief scams.

They are Many Reputable Debt Relief Companies

So, are debt relief programs legit? Well, many organizations can get you out of debt. Generally, the debt relief company will put up an account where you will need to deposit a specified amount of money for some time. They will recommend that you stop making your routine payments as they negotiate to speed up the settlement process. The hack is to convince creditors that you cannot clear the entire loan amount. They will then use the savings account to start negotiating and the loan-clearing process with your creditors. Usually, debt relief companies charge between 15 to 25 percent of your debt.

Identify a Debt Relief Scam

Debt relief scams target individuals struggling with large loan amounts and low credit scores. Trusting a debt relief program without due diligence can translate to more money loss and a worse credit record. A legitimate company should take you through its debt relief process, expected outcomes, and fees, among other crucial details.

During your enrollment, they should thoroughly analyze...

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted "Tucker Carlson Tonight" an exclusive first look to over 40,000 hours of security camera footage from the Capitol Building that were hidden from the public for over two years. On Monday, Carlson offered the first glimpses of footage involving key figures from that day.

New emails uncovered by House Republicans probing the COVID-19 pandemic reveal the deceptive nature of Dr. Anthony Fauci. They show he "prompted" or commissioned and had final approval on a scientific paper written specifically in February 2020 to disprove the theory that the virus leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China. Eight weeks later, Fauci stood at a White House press conference alongside President Donald Trump and cited that paper as evidence that the lab leak theory was implausible while pretending it had nothing to do with him and he did not know the authors.

A 6.0-magnitude earthquake jolted the southern Philippines on Tuesday (Mar 7), the US Geological Survey said, but there were no reports of casualties or major damage. The shallow quake struck at about 2pm local time (0600 GMT), a few kilometres from Maragusan municipality in the mountainous gold-mining province of Davao de Oro on Mindanao island. Shallow earthquakes tend to cause more harm than deeper ones, but local authorities said there were no reports of major damage. Cherrylyn Dapiton of the Maragusan disaster office confirmed there had been a landslide near a road, but it had not affected anyone or blocked traffic.

Jurgens is one of only two Georgians arrested Sunday. A lawyer for the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) was arrested and charged with domestic terrorism over the violence that broke out in Atlanta on Sunday in relation to protests of a planned training facility for police officers in the city, the SPLC has confirmed. "An employee at the SPLC was arrested while acting and identifying as a legal observer on behalf of the National Lawyers Guild (NLG). The employee is an experienced legal observer, and their arrest is not evidence of any crime, but of heavy-handed law enforcement intervention against protesters," the SPLC said in a statement on Monday. Thomas Webb Jurgens was among the list of 23 suspected domestic terrorists released by the Atlanta Police Department on Monday. Violence broke out in Atlanta on Sunday after protesters of a planned police training facility hurled bricks and Molotov cocktails at officers and set cars on fire.

The more that Americans come to believe that childcare is to be individually acquired through ones employer, the less reason to create a system everyone can access.

Last week, the Biden administration took the unusual step of connecting industrial policy with childcare policy. In order to qualify for large sums available through the CHIPS Act, semiconductor manufacturers must explain how they are going to guarantee affordable childcare for their employees. This is a dangerous wrong turn, not because companies shouldnt be expected to meet the needs of their workforce but because childcare should never be a job-linked benefit.

The adult entertainment industry has come a long way from the days of peep shows to the age of webcams. Jasmine Live is just one example of how technology has revolutionized the industry, but before we dive into that, lets take a brief look at the history of adult entertainment.

The earliest form of adult entertainment can be traced back to ancient civilizations like Greece and Rome, where erotic art and literature were common. However, the modern era of adult entertainment began in the early 20th century with the rise of peep shows.

Peep shows were small booths where customers could insert coins and watch a performer behind a glass screen. These shows were popular in the red-light districts of major cities and were often associated with prostitution. However, with the advent of motion pictures in the 1920s, the adult entertainment industry began to take on a new form.

The first adult film, A Free Ride, was released in 1915, but it wasnt until the 1970s that the industry really took off. This was the era of porno chic, a time when adult films were shown in mainstream theaters and even received critical acclaim. However, the 1980s brought a crackdown on the industry, with the government enforcing stricter regulations and the advent of the VHS tape making it easier for people to watch adult films in the privacy of their own homes.

But the real game-changer for the adult entertainment industry came with the internet. In the 1990s, adult websites began to pop up, offering everything from photos to videos to live webcam shows. And this is where Jasmine Live comes in.

Jasmine Live is a popular webcam site that launched in 2002. It allows performers to broadcast live shows to viewers around the world, with the option for viewers to interact with the performers via text chat. This technology has completely transformed the adult entertainment i...

Introduction

The threads of our lives have been slowly woven together through meals cooked communally, organizing meetings, bonfires and late conversations, foraging, harvesting, taking care of each other, and, lately, mourning a fallen comrade and friend. We all came together to protect Weelaunee Forest: the trees, waters, people, and all beings of this land. We came together to Stop Cop City and the violent military occupation of police in our communities, especially the Black and Brown ones, in Atlanta, Georgia. We came together amid COVID, when we felt the loss of closeness with our people, knowing we had to find creative ways of fostering community. We have come together to build the world we want to live in, even as we recognize we are all swimming in the extractive and oppressive systems of colonization, white supremacy, and capitalism, programmed for convenience and quick rewards. We keep coming back together, gathering with each other, to live in the joy and rest and wellness of community care.

The topic of this piece is the Sacred Web of Abundance (SWoA). The larger Sacred Web of Abundance is the sum of the vast, intricate system that sustains all life on this planet. Your Sacred Web of Abundance is the place that you live, the ways in which it sustains you, and the ways in which you sustain it. We are here to be part of this web and invite in others who are on the same land. What we have found is that the Sacred Web of Abundance, with her billions of years of wisdom, is there for us, waiting for our gratitude, delight, offerings, rituals, and ceremonieswaiting to build a relationship with us.</p> <p>These uniqu...

COMMENT: Marty,

Zelinsky has tried to portray himself as a military leader, cloaked in the symbolism of a military strongman. Gaddafi, Hussein, Stalin, and even Hitler come to mind. All were seen as ardent nationalists. Zelinsky did this to attract enormous weapons and capital to this country, ensuring that his face becomes the symbol of the military leader.

In truth, Zelinsky is a figurehead whose survival depends on outside assistance. Ukraine continues to bleed out citizens, while its military gets eviscerated. Even with the weapons provided by the West, Ukraines military was never of the caliber of Russias. A Heroic figure he is not.

The West probably bet the sanctions and outside pressures would force Putin to withdraw. No one counted on Putin to stand his ground. Putins determination to crush Zelinsky means his tenure is linked with his war record and battlefield performance.  Panic is now setting in. Zelinsky is as much a puppet regime as we saw in South Vietnam. It lacks broad support and like the one in Saigon, Kiev will collapse sooner or later from outside pressure.

Once collapse happens, military defeat means political defeat. Therefore, the West is panicked to raise the stakes and step in to bolster a puppet regime. The US entered Vietnam slowly, then suddenly. It now appears NATO is following this same process, first indirectly, now perhaps directly. They have turned Ukraines future into some kind of existential life-or-death battle. For NATO, that is certainly the case. Having squandered untold billions, their military readiness is now on the line.

Kennedy tried to block the expansion of the US presence in Vietnam and was assassinated for it. Johnson enthusiastically took over and then realized his generals, Westmoreland to be precise, had no real plan. Johnson lost by blindly following the military. Trump tried to keep the US out of wars and was ousted by a fraudulent election. Biden enthusiastically took over echoing Johnson. As with Vietnam, an unpopular regime with no support, Ukraine...
