NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

🚨Reminder: A country run by banks will always be in debt, healthcare run by Big Pharma will never cure disease, a state run by war will never know peace, and a nation run by media will never know the truth.

Most of what I've accomplished this morning is a blog post & 400K in PokemonGo (I'm trying to hit 276m before the new levels kick in, but I've got another 13m to go & just not enough time), & now I'm going to 100 Things the synopsis for BONE & BLOOD, out in February!

www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXFPLQW...

The staggeringly fabulous cover for CE Murphy's upcoming BONE & BLOOD, a retelling of "Snow White, Rose Red" features two women standing back to back: one is garbed all in blood red, with dark red hair and a black mask; the other wears flowing white, with wheat-pale hair and a glittering mask. Cover art & design by Ravven. Preorder at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXFPLQWY/?tag=mizkit-20

Everybody takes pot shots at Soros. Even the show Homeland did. There was a bomb threat against his house uptown.

I worked for him for five years. It’s nothing like antisemitic propaganda makes it sound.

His funding uplifts and empowers people with real needs and that scares leaders everywhere.
