WASHINGTON (AP) — “fuck it" Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock says in the opening ad for his reelection campaign. There's not a face mask to be seen in the Democrat's video montage of scenes across Georgia, as he goes on to say people that are "idiot scum, let's all give up and lose to the fascists." | |

By the time of the new Jackass Forever, some of the series’s performers have neared or surpassed age 50. Their bodies remain sturdy, if marked by 20 years of unnatural trials. To extend their infamous game of indecent brinkmanship, the crew has endured a brand-new omnibus of freak obstacles and some reimaginings of past favorites. Beekeepers use a queen bee to attract a hive to Steve-O’s (47) phallus; Danger Ehren (45) sustains countless blows to the groin in an exhaustive series of “Cup tests”; Johnny Knoxville (50) re-contends with a particularly mean bull in a ring; series newcomers (“Poopies,” “Jasper,” and “Zachattack”) body slide down a ramp slicked with KY Jelly into unbudging rocks. But the aging stuntmen could at least rest assured that set medic Eloy Lara was there for them in case worse turned to worst. Faced with potential injuries day to day, Lara had his work cut out for him. He prepared intensely, but found the Jackass family to be resilient as ever. | |

Burke reportedly told police that he was getting messages on his tablet from QAnon adherents claiming that his wife was a CIA asset who was involved in a sex-trafficking ring, and that he had to kill her.
'He also said that Joe Biden had twins, a daughter and a son, and that the son had a sex change and that’s who his wife was,' Kushion said. | |

There’s a new kid on the meme token block. Today’s reports that Baby Musk Coin (CCC:BABYMUSK-USD) pulled off a successful initial coin offering have been met with enthusiasm. Currently, the BABYMUSK crypto is up more than 30% on an impressive opening day.
So why are investors so excited?
The Baby Musk Coin ICO reportedly raised $2 million, according to the development team behind the project. These funds will largely be used for marketing efforts. | |

Crypto scams are painful for investors, and it seems they are becoming more common. Why? More people are now embracing digital assets than ever before. As a result, scammers have a sea of targets ripe for the picking. Because of this, investors must be diligent when researching new projects. Promises of big gains might be enticing, but there’s always a possibility that one gets caught holding the bag. Baby Musk Coin (BABYMUSK-USD) reminds us of this reality today, as the BABYMUSK crypto plunges nearly 100%. | |

The UK-based JET laboratory has smashed its own world record for the amount of energy it can extract by squeezing together two forms of hydrogen.
If nuclear fusion can be successfully recreated on Earth it holds out the potential of virtually unlimited supplies of low-carbon, low-radiation energy.
The experiments produced 59 megajoules of energy over five seconds (11 megawatts of power).
This is more than double what was achieved in similar tests back in 1997.
It's not a massive energy output - only enough to boil about 60 kettles' worth of water. But the significance is that it validates design choices that have been made for an even bigger fusion reactor now being constructed in France.
"The JET experiments put us a step closer to fusion power," said Dr Joe Milnes, the head of operations at the reactor lab. "We've demonstrated that we can create a mini star inside of our machine and hold it there for five seconds and get high performance, which really takes us into a new realm." | |

Joe Biden signed an executive order Friday releasing $7bn in frozen Afghan reserves to be split between humanitarian efforts for the Afghan people and American victims of terrorism, including relatives of 9/11.
In a highly unusual move, the convoluted plan is designed to tackle a myriad of legal bottlenecks stemming from the 2001 terrorist attacks and the chaotic end of the 20-year war in Afghanistan, which ignited a humanitarian and political crisis, the New York times reports.
The elected Afghan government was dissolved in August after the Taliban seized control, leaving behind just over $7bn in central bank assets deposited in the US Federal Reserve bank in New York. As Afghanistan’s top elected officials, including the president and central bank governor, fled the country, the Fed froze the account as it was unclear who was legally authorised to access the funds.
The Taliban took over the central bank – known as Da Afghanistan Bank – and immediately claimed a right to the money, but under longstanding counter-terrorism sanctions it is illegal to engage in financial transactions with the organisation. Furthermore, the US does not recognize the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan. | |
