The news outlets here can’t seem to get it right . Nothing new on that front .

Hawaii is NOT the ‘Ring of Fire’ !
This morning’s newspaper devoted several pages to more ‘doom porn’ coming from AP about how the Hawaii volcano has raised volcano fears on the west coast and around the ‘ring of fire’…. which AP says includes Hawaii. NOT TRUE. Hawaii is in the middle…. not part of the ‘ring’. And Hawaii is NOT a subduction volcano like the rest of the west coast and the ‘ring.
They are volcanos, but they are very different… like comparing apples and oranges. Hawaii is a shield volcano… much more tame than a subduction volcano. Yet the news merrily marches on with the ‘explosions’ narrative. And the West coast is no more… or less… at risk than it was before the Hawaii eruption. Sheesh. Doom Porn.
Mother’s Day on the Volcano
Madam Pele gave birth to several new fissures on the eastern end of the eruptive zone. Fissures #16,17, and this morning #18. The eruptions passed the geothermal plant by about a mile and broke out again further east. This is near the zone of the 1955 lava flow.
So the geothermal plant has been ‘bracketed’ by fissures to the west and now to the east. Perhaps Pele will spare the power plant. At peak capacity it can supply 38 MegaWatts, or 20% of our island power. For now, it is shut down. The ‘doom porn’ news is still saying there are 50,000 gallons of volatile Pentane at the plant, “just waiting to blow”. This is NOT TRUE. The pentane was moved out several days ago, so there is no explosion threat from the geothermal plant.
News feeds are also excited about the possible summit explosions. They make it sound like Mount St. Helens is about to destroy the island any minute now. It’s really not much of a big deal for us locally. We just keep away from the crater. While there is the possibility of a 1924 style steam explosion, things may be a little less explosive this time. The lava vent pipe is much larger now than it was in 1924, so it would be harder for a rockfall of the sidewalls to seal the vent and turn it into a ‘spud cannon’. The crater is actively steaming now… a lot… but it’s a large, open hole at this point and it would take a massive clog to make it explosive.
Biggest human threat right now is the volume of SO2 gas being emitted by the fresh lava fissures. People in the immediate area really need to have the Sulfur Dioxide masks as the wind wafts this stuff around. I got a strong dose at home, five miles downwind, when the wind came my way. But it’s very intermittent as it wafts around in the wind, so you need to keep aware of the wind direction. We just closed up the house and stayed indoors for an hour and it was gone later.
Robert Mueller Threatens President Trump With a Subpoena if He Does Not Submit to an Interview
It is also an open question whether Mueller even has that authority. Department of Justice regulations say that a sitting president can’t be indicted. So if Trump just refused to comply with the subpoena, Mueller would have damned little recourse. Trump might even think the blatant defiance was a win…and he might be right.
And Mueller is not a special counsel in the mold of Ken Starr. He’s a temp employee of the Department of Justice. He’s supervised by Rod Rosenstein who would certainly have to sign off on anything as extraordinary as a subpoena issued to the President. If Rosenstein did that, his tenure could be measured in nanoseconds.
They’re salivating to undo all of Trumps executive orders.
Mueller to President: *I* WILL DECIDE How and When You’re Interviewed!
“Mueller Is Going to Get What He Wants”: Inside the Trump-Mueller Cat-and-Mouse Game
While Trump’s lawyers are working to limit Trump’s legal risk, experts say it may be impossible for the president to avoid a perjury trap. “That is a problem for the Trump lawyers, not the special counsel,” says one former White House counsel. “One way or the other, the lawyers have to figure out how to prepare the president to give testimony.”
President Trump has repeatedly said that he would not cut Social Security
His budget does not cut Social Security. When some Republicans tried to put cuts in the budget, the President had those provisions taken out. When he ran for President in 2016, Trump said he would not cut it. He has kept his promises.
Rumor has it politicians took bribes over Iran deal.
Now rumor is they threaten to name them. Please do.
ran Threatened To Name Politicians Who Took BRIBES To Pass Nuclear Deal
Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hossein Jaberi Ansari has just warned Western politicians that if they do not put pressure on the Trump administration the Iranian regime will leak the names of all officials who accepted bribes to pass the disastrous deal in the first
Why Trump won both sides are crooks
They really need to privatize SS before Trump leaves. Apparently that traitorous Kerry told the Iranians that they didn’t have to listen to Trump because he’s not going to be around much longer. Meanwhile Mueller is dictating to Trump saying he’ll decide how he ” interrogates” him. Refused anything in writing.

macroman3, re: your 1306 post
The Israeli attack on the Hamas tunnel was not a strategic move, it was tactical. Yes, the Israeli’s defend along three fronts. They have since 1948. Nothing new except that now the Iranians are attacking from Syria and Lebanon. Now Egypt and Jordan are at peace with Israel and they know longer insist on wiping out Israel, so they can spend their money and efforts on improving the lives of their people and only have to spend a small amount fighting off Islamic terrorists and Iranian proxies.
goldielocks, just for your info
You wrote about me yesterday; “I’m sure your a expert on buildings like your a expert on volcanos, like your a expert on stocks like PM was gonna have such a good day yesterday.”
I never said I was an expert on buildings, but I believe the thousands of pages of data by honorable experts who have thoroughly discounted the conspiracy theories by fools. I am something of an expert on explosives and placing cutting charges on steel. I am still waiting to hear the silly theory about how the ghost army that placed all the charges….unseen by anyone was able to accomplish the monumental task.
I never said I was an expert on volcanoes, but I have lived in Hawaii for 6 years and commented on what a lot of experts were saying, I wrote that a few days and since then there have been numerous news stories on the subject that support what I wrote.
I never wrote on Friday that precious metals were going to have a good day. I did have a small gain on the day however, thanks to PVG.
If you and others want to attack my opinions and facts, at least tell the truth.
I read your post where you questioned someone about why would Israel attack the US on 911. Are you serious?
buygold, you can find about another dozen news sources if you wish
the news story will not change. Of course the Palestinians will say they just had farmers in the field doing nothing wrong. The terrorist tunnels are how Hamas will try and sneak attack the little kibbutz just inside Israel. If the people in Gaza were allowed the money to spend on improving their lives instead of funding terrorism, they would be living a very good lifestyle. The problem is, as we all should know, is that Hamas is dedicated to the destruction of Israel and the death of the Jews. Nothing new.
CNN
Ha! That bastion of truth and integrity.
That US Embassy in Jerusalem is a perfect false flag target to draw the US into more war.
Israeli airstrike destroys an almost completed Hamas tunnel in Gaza
It seems as though the alt-right neo Nazi crowd is whipping themselves up again..
Just wait until tomorrow, when the new US Embassy opens in Jerusalem.

Buygold, this Israeli missile strike on Gaza doesn’t seem very strategic unless the Zios are going for broke…
Their eastern enemies, Syria/Iran are fed up with 100+ attacks over Lebanon. Gaza to the SW is a minor diversion that could become a major one once Hezbollah starts raining in missiles from the North.
A three front defense of a small nation, you’d think these Jews would have studied Hitler better. Pretty soon Ellidiott and R640 will be fighting along side their 11 year old great grandkids….
Nety’s ego wants to be a figure for the history books before he dies… very dangerous

Mahalo nui loa for the update. Is the air where you are okay right now I hope?
Europe if falling apart
They’re importing terrorist. Talking about devaluations property. Another terrorist attack in Paris. That Ramadan or what ever they call it is coming up.
