@Alex_Dawson_Photography

The whale shark is also known as the David French shark. I don't know why. Must be because they both have Princibuhls.

Here's a whale shark at an all-you-can-suck buffet.

Manta ray sees a flying bird and thinks "Why not me?"

Actual flying fish say "Hold muh beer."

Stingray doesn't like being held in a tank.

Crocodile sounds like a Harley Davidson engine.

Whale wants to play.

'Sup?

Florida Man challenges an alligator to a fight and it's a Flawless Victory.

Bear cubs scramble to get up a wall of snow to follow mom.

Aw, the giant spider likes head scritches.

Booping big cats.

A huge water spout in Russia. In Russia, a water-tornado of this immense sucking power is called a David French Situation. Again, I don't know why. I can't look it up, because the Washington Post warned me that if I do my own research my heart will explode with hatred.

13 Recent episode of Outdoor Boys on YouTube (weekly quality, family content), he is searching for walrus ivory in Alaska that washes up on the beach.

1) seems you can keep, if you report and register it within 30 days. Of course you can't sell it.
2) but any bones, you have to have them certified by a marine biologist as there are only some species you can keep.

He only found little chunks, so he won't be making a piano anytime soon.

16 We had two divers encounter a whale shark when they were diving to get some black coral in Cuba. That stuff was down there 120-130 feet way deeper than I would dive. They would go down there a couple of times a week with a drop safety line with spare tanks tied on for decompression stops.

On one of the stops my Lieutenant said it looked like the sun went out. He looked up and saw a huge whale shark swimming above them.

Another blow to defenders of how FBI executed the MAL raid.

Far from advanced "coordination" with Secret Service, this note appears to indicate the 1st call to USSS came around two hours before agents arrived at Mar-a-Lago.

Did they meet at a...Publix? (Hope they had chicken!)

Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 10h
The "cooperation" and "coordination" between armed FBI agents and the Secret Service was so solid that instead of waiting for the key to the storage room, an agent used bolt cutters to cut the lock.

The Secret Service agent in charge stood by and took notes.

Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 10h
I tried to warn those defending the raid in any capacity to be careful bc much more would be revealed.

Agents removed docs we are supposed to believe threaten national security and put them on the ground to take photos and then didn't handle them properly afterwards:

NEW: Trump's lawyers overnight filed a new motion to dismiss classified documents case based on "spoilation" of evidence that I have been reporting on. Also appears to confirm my report that FBI agents staged the docs photo at Mar-a-Lago:

Not only did DOJ recently admit the sequence of evidence in boxes taken at MAL are not the same as when they were seized but it appears the order of files in the 15 boxes Trump turned over to the archives in Jan 2022 also not in order. Big problem...

Posted by: andycanuck (ZdexC) at June 11, 2024 08:58 PM (ZdexC)

134 Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 10h
Can't imagine Judge Cannon will take this lightly (I also assume she already knows this, which is why she asked Jay Bratt directly during a March 2024 hearing if the sequence of the evidence in the boxes were in original order. He said yes except for cover sheets that replaced classified docs.)

Agents did not follow orders to keep files in order. This is important because one of Trump's defenses is that he did not pack the boxes (duh) but many boxes were in chronological order--which would demonstrate he didn't "willfully" abscond with the alleged classified files in his waning moments at the White House.

Also--Jack Smith recently attempted to blame the special master (wisely appointed by Cannon in Sept 2022) for the inconsistent order of the evidence. Turns out the FBI agents screwed this up from Day One:

A new batch of J6 records shows the FBI executed 'disruptions' ahead of J6

'Disruptions' can include criminal arrests, but in the COINTELPRO era they referred to undercover informants infiltrating political groups and sowing discord

A few highlights from the latest records

One of the reports from Dec. 2020 indicates the FBI was looking at an Antifa member who might have planned to attend the Capitol Hill rally. That report is almost entirely redacted, but it does identify the case type as “anarchist extremist”—FBI parlance for Antifa.

Another report shows the FBI opened an investigation before the 2020 election took place. The date of that FBI report is redacted, but identifies someone or some group that was “likely planning to conduct acts of violence related to the upcoming 2020 elections.”

182 Her Majesty and Diana have made it to Rawlins, WY for the night. The elevation is about 6800 feet, which is about 6750 feet higher than Schloss Hadrian.

223 >>I can't imagine being able to cave dive. Do you have to be certified to do that? Sounds scary as hell.

It's not scary if you are properly prepared. It's an adrenaline rush because it can be dangerous and you shouldn't try it like anything else if you haven't been trained but it's no more scary than taking care of a sick or injured person if you aren't trained.

That is scary to me because I have no idea what I'm doing but you do and I'm sure you aren't scared. Maybe excited and energized but not scared. Caves and reef holes are spectacular to see and not particularly dangerous if you know what you are doing.

The ocean is more interesting and closer to us than space will ever be and it's accessible to everyone. I encourage everyone to explore the ocean. It's indescribably beautiful and mysterious.
