Mondo's Mundo: Pole vault legend Mondo
Duplantis breaks world record in Olympic final
Posted By: Hazymac, 8/6/2024 6:57:48 AM
For a mind-boggling ninth time, 24-year-old Swede Mondo Duplantis has broken his own pole vault world record. At the end of Monday evening's track and field session at Stade de France, Duplantis cleared a new world-record height of 6.25 meters, topping the mark of 6.24m he set in April. That record-breaking leap served as the dessert, coming nearly a half hour after winning his second consecutive Olympic gold medal. "The biggest dream since I was a kid was to break the world record at the Olympics," Duplantis said. "I’ve been able to do it in front of the most ridiculous crowd I’ve ever competed in front of."

In recent years, signs that Satan’s minions rule the temporal world have proven impossible to ignore.
After all, if the prince of darkness had decided to troll us all for his own diabolical amusement, then surely he would have done exactly what the administration of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris has done.
On July 19, amid global calamities on a scale unseen since World War II, the Biden-Harris administration announced a plan to eliminate the deadly scourge of plastic silverware. “Communities across the United States and around the world are facing a plastic pollution crisis,” a White House statement began.
It only got worse from there.
The New Yorker set out to write a total, ruinous take-down of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Tuesday to force the nephew of Camelot to bow down to commie Kamalot. RFK Jr. took the story, utterly destroyed and exquisitely mocked it, and hilariously commanded his own story—a scoop— that the magazine had hoped would horrify voters but instead made me laugh harder than I have in years.
RFK Jr. put his own story out on X, taunting The New Yorker, "Looking forward to seeing how you spin this, @NewYorker."
Kennedy obviously got a head's up the story was coming and decided he'd get in front of it, scooping the magazine.

At Least 32 people were killed and 60 others were wounded late Friday when a suicide bomber detonated explosives outside a hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia, setting off a four-hour siege by gunmen, The New York Times reported.
The radical Islamist militant group Al Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack, which started in the Lido Beach area, according to The New York Times. The terrorist organization has been locked in an insurgency against Somalia’s government for almost two decades, according to the outlet.
“We heard a loud explosion followed by gunfire,” Mohamed Jibril, a witness who was reportedly out with friends in the vicinity during the attack, told the outlet.
The liberal media wants to make Donald Trump’s comments about Kamala Harris’ race a significant point as we enter the final months of the 2024 election. It’s a tacit acknowledgment that the Democratic Party is underwater with groups that usually vote overwhelmingly for them in elections. They need something to jolt the base—and this subject matter could do it. That’s why I’m admittedly nervous: personal attacks on Kamala do nothing but energize liberals. Trump said that Kamala carried herself as Indian before becoming black after her national profile increased at last
TAMPA, Fla. — The driver of an 18-wheeler found half submerged early Monday morning in the Tampa Bypass Canal after losing control on Interstate 75 has been found dead, authorities confirmed.
Hillsborough County Fire Rescue crews responded to a call at 2:35 a.m. and located the truck teetering on the guardrail with the cab still out of the water, according to a news release.
The driver of the truck was traveling southbound near mile 263 before going off the road. Fifteen minutes into the incident, the front cab became submerged in the water. Multiple units responded to the scene to try and save whoever was inside.

Democrats have a problem.
Despite shoving Joe Biden to the side in terms of the election, they still have to deal with him continuing to make awkward remarks and do weird things while occupying the Oval Office as he continues to deteriorate.
Most Americans think it's a great thing that the Hamas terrorist leader Ismail Haniyeh was taken out. As we reported, he was living in luxury in Qatar but was done in by an explosive device placed in a guest house room in Tehran months ago and remotely detonated when he visited Iran.
While no one has yet claimed responsibility for ridding the world of this maniac,
Earlier today, David looked at the results of the first boxing match at the Olympic Games in Paris where a man was allowed to fight a woman because he "identifies" as being female. This is a subject that we previewed at length here yesterday. Unfortunately, the fight was allowed to proceed and Imane Khelif was matched up against female Italian boxer Angela Carini. As predicted by many, including yours truly, the fight didn't even last one minute into the first round. The referee declared a technical knockout after 46 seconds. Kheif came out and hit Carini so hard that her headgear was dislodged by the first blow.
So now it's the Federal Reserve that's going to either taint the November election or tank the economy.
"Delivering a rate cut ahead of the election could rile up Republicans and former President Donald Trump," the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, "but withholding a needed reduction could undermine the economy and upset Democrats."
Never mind that high rates are what's keeping inflation in check and that we've been told for three years that Bidenomics has delivered an economy so strong that it kicks sand in the face of 7% mortgages and 9% car loans.
The facts are that full-time, private-sector jobs are still well below pre-lockdown levels
PARIS – Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who failed a gender eligibility test last year, won her opening bout at the Paris Olympics in just 46 seconds on Thursday against her distraught opponent.
Khelif advanced to the quarterfinals of the women's 66kg category after unloading two strong punches on Angela Carini, who shrugged off attempts by the Algerian to shake her hand and collapsed to her knees in floods of tears.
An Italian coach said Carini had suffered a badly hurt nose and the official decision was listed as an abandonment.
Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting, who fights on Friday at 57kg, were disqualified from the world championships
Israel claimed on Thursday that it killed Hamas’ top military commander, Mohammad Deif, during a strike earlier in July.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said it launched a strike in Gaza on July 13 while targeting two top Hamas leaders. Deif, who the IDF said was the mastermind behind the Hamas-led attack on Israel on Oct. 7, was one of the targets.
"Mohammed Deif, the top military commander of Hamas, was the target of an Israeli strike today in al-Mawasi," two Israeli sources told Fox News Digital after the attack.
There was no confirmation of Deif’s death until Thursday. "Muhammad Deif, the ‘Osama Bin Laden of Gaza,’ was eliminated on
Bill Gates was at one point the 'brightest star' in Jeffrey Epstein's orbit but became a target for the late pedophile after their short-lived partnership collapsed, a new book claims.
Epstein had set his sights on Gates in 2010 when the Microsoft founder and fellow billionaire Warren Buffett launched The Giving Pledge, a charitable campaign under which they vowed to donate 99 percent of their wealth.
To Epstein, their charitable initiative was a potential new 'way to make money' and restore his public image, according to new biography, Billionaire, Nerd, Savior, King: Bill Gates and His Quest to Shape Our World.
It would allow Epstein to launder his reputation

Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota's progressive governor Tim Walz as her running mate after weeks of speculation, according to CNN.
The 60-year-old father-of-two, who has been married to his teacher wife Gwen since 1994, joins the ticket in a victory for the progressive left of the party who were concerned about some of the other contenders' support of Israel.
In Minnesota he has codified the right to abortion, signed universal free school meals, legalized recreational marijuana and gave voting rights to former prisoners.
President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that Joe Biden will attempt to reclaim the Democratic nomination after it was “stolen” by Kamala Harris.
This comment comes in light of recent announcements confirming Harris’s position as the Democrat presidential nominee, following a controversial series of events leading to Biden’s abrupt withdrawal from the 2024 race.
Last week, DNC Chair Jaime Harrison announced that Harris has amassed enough delegates to secure her place at the top of the ticket, with final results expected to be confirmed on Monday.
Despite never winning a primary election, Harris has now found herself positioned as the official Democrat nominee.
Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s wife, Gwen, said she left her windows open to “smell the burning tires” during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots because she felt it was a “touchstone” moment. An interview clip with Gwen Walz discussing the 2020 riots and her reaction to them resurfaced online Tuesday after Vice President Kamala Harris announced she would be choosing the Minnesota governor as her running mate for the 2024 election. In the interview, which was aired on KSTP-TV’s “5 Eyewitness News Nightcast” channel,
As recently as last week, Kamala Harris appeared to be on the cusp of picking Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.) as her running mate. Despite the progressive backlash against him and a slew of scandalous leaks, he was the runaway frontrunner in the betting odds as conventional wisdom held that Kamala needed a "moderate" swing state Democrat to help expand her path to 270 Electoral College votes.
Shapiro's chances remained high even after he faced serious allegations by a fellow Democrat of covering up harassment in his office. The sexual harassment cover-up didn't take Shapiro out of contention, and neither did another cover-up — this one involving murder.
Vice President Kamala Harris selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to be her running mate on Tuesday caused NBC's cast of characters to gush with praise. Throughout the coverage, Walz would be called a “moderate” who can win over Republicans and a "progressive" who can appease Muslim and Arab voters upset with President Joe Biden on Israel while also being lauded for looking “like a lot of dads,” while the Harris-Walz ticket was described as a “beautiful mosaic.”
White House correspondent Gabe Gutierrez’s biography of Walz recalled, “After moving to Minnesota, he volunteered for John Kerry’s presidential campaign, and in an upset, he was elected to Congress in 2006.
Stress on the body caused by racism may cut African American women’s lives short, according to a recent study by neuroscientists at Harvard and Emory universities.
Their research, published in the journal JAMA Network Open in June, found a connection between “higher self-reported racial discrimination” and “DNA methylation age acceleration” among black women.
“Racism steals time from people’s lives – possibly because of the space it occupies in the mind,” lead researchers Negar Fani and Nathaniel Harnett wrote in an article this week at The Conversation.
Fani is a professor at Emory and Harnett at Harvard, both in the areas of psychiatry and neuroscience.
Rep. Cori Bush, a radical Marxist representing St. Louis City in Congress, lost her primary race on Tuesday night to another far left radical – Wesley Bell, the St. Louis County Prosecutor.
Both Bush and Bell launched their “political” careers as protest leaders during the Mike Brown protests and riots in 2014.
Bush was vehemently anti-Israel in her remarks and policies. Bell was endorsed by AIPAC.
Bell took out Bush last night in St. Louis. (X) Following her loss, Cori Bush went off on an angry, unhinged, and threatening rant.
Sarah will have more on how Tampon Timmy ran off like a scared wombat when his unit got deployed to Iraq later today, but if Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN) wants to be a good surrogate, she can’t come off like this. Smith came off like an avid watcher of ABC's The View: dumb and uninformed while pounding white wine. While comparing records, the Minnesota Democrat said she wasn’t aware of any military service done by JD Vance, a former Marine who served in the Iraq War.

A federal complaint unsealed on Tuesday in Brooklyn has charged Asif Merchant, also known as “Asif Raza Merchant,” a 46-year-old Pakistani national, with murder-for-hire in connection with a foiled assassination plot targeting a politician or U.S. government officials on American soil.
The plot was thwarted by law enforcement before any attack could be executed. Merchant is currently in federal custody in New York, according to the press release.
FBI investigators believe that the intended targets of the plot included Trump and other current and former U.S. government officials, according to a U.S. official briefed on the matter, per CNN.

Rep. Cori Bush (D) lost her primary in Missouri on Tuesday in the latest blow to the progressive “squad” on Capitol Hill, according to a projection from Decision Desk HQ.
Bush’s loss to St. Louis Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell in the 1st Congressional District’s Democratic primary makes her the second member of the group to lose reelection after Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) earlier this year.

Duplantis is the world's greatest pole vaulter. Last night he cleared 20' 6". That's flying.
