You might be ready to find out

What we learned about nuclear power

During thenuclear airplane propulsion program

Back in the 1950s

Then in 1960

One of the experimental reactors from that program

Was modified for the MSRE project

To validate that Molten Salt Reactors using Thorium

Could be safely used to generate electricity

 

 

This is a 20 minute film produced in 1969

With much archival footage that had been classified before

 

Note: Thorium is a radioactive rare-earth element. The USA thought we were deficient in reserves until it was discovered that certain mining operations were inadvertently concentrating rare-earth elements in their tailing piles. Also, North Korea has the world's largest reserves of these elements which is why Trump made such glowing promises about their economic development.

James Mattis is linked to a massive corporate fraud and nobody wants to talk about it

Better let a scandal slide than risk a nuclear war.

Secretary of Defense James Mattis is implicated in one of the largest business scandals of the past decades, described by the Securities and Exchange Commission as an “elaborate, years-long fraud” through which Theranos, led by CEO Elizabeth Holmes and president Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani, “exaggerated or made false statements about the company’s technology, business, and financial performance.”

 

Basically, their biotech startup was founded on the promise of faster, cheaper, painless blood tests. But their technology was fake.

 

Mattis not only served on Theranos’s board during some of the years it was perpetrating the fraud after he retired from US military service, but he earlier served as a key advocate of putting the company’s technology (technology that was, to be clear, fake) to use inside the military while he was still serving as a general. Holmes is settling the case, paying a $500,000 fee and accepting various other penalties, while Balwani is fighting it out in court.

 

Nobody on the board is being directly charged with doing anything. But accepting six-figure checks to serve as a frontman for a con operation is the kind of thing that would normally count as a liability in American politics.

 

But nobody wants to talk about it. Not just Trump and his co-partisans in Congress; the Democratic Party opposition is also inclined to give Mattis a pass. Everyone in Washington is more or less convinced that his presence in the Pentagon is the only thing standing between us and possible nuclear Armageddon.

"I was just passing by its headquarters, practically, being of Greek origin Theranos sounded like a Greek term that was very weird. The terms that come to mind are 'tyrannos,' which is a tyrant, and 'thanatos,' which is death. So I said, 'Why should a company want to have such a name?'" said Dr. John Ioannidis, a professor of medicine at Stanford University.
