EXPLODING ELECTRIC BICYCLES

PLEASE BE AWARE: if partially or totally submerged in water, the lithium-ion battery pack used to power many electric devices and vehicles will suffer damage that will compromise its safety and stability. This damage can be even more severe if your battery pack was submerged in salt water.

Please check your eBike as soon as possible. Unfortunately, if your eBike has been submerged in water during the storm, it’s very likely that its electrical system has been damaged and the eBike is unsafe to use. If the battery pack was partially or totally submerged, we advise that you carefully remove the battery pack from the eBike (or wherever it was stored when submerged), and take it to a safe location OUTDOORS, away from any flammable materials. Leave the affected battery pack OUTDOORS until you are ready to drop it off at the recycling center where it can be safely recycled.

When you are able to properly dispose of the battery, place the battery pack in a clear plastic bag and take it to your municipal household hazardous waste drop-off center. Your local City Hall or Fire Department may have resources to help you find the closest facility in your area, or you can check the Call2Recycle website (Battery & Cellphone Dropoff Locations | Call2Recycle | United States) for drop-off locations nearby.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU ATTEMPT TO RECHARGE A LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACK THAT HAS BEEN PARTIALLY OR TOTALLY SUBMERGED IN WATER.

ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE A COMPROMISED LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACK CAN RESULT IN A VERY DANGEROUS FIRE THAT GENERATES SIGNIFICANT HEAT, TOXIC GASSES AND IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL.

VF comment: Whenever and wherever you see the double-speak terms "misinformation" or "disinformation", you know you are reading lies. That's their twisted inversion of reality. What those terms really mean is "we don't like hearing this information, and we don't want anyone else learning it". Typically, that's because it's the unvarnished TRUTH. Call them out, call them the LIARS they are. Refuse to play their game. DEFEAT them, publicly.

This is America's future

Dear Patriots,


It has come to this. The leftist, elite, Democrats want to throw their political opposition into prison situations so harsh they are intended to break the minds and souls of the prisoners.

This is not a story from some distant past. This is a real live horror that has been going on for almost the entirety of the Biden Regime.
Elections have consequences. Electing any Democrat to any office has devastating consequences.
Staying home on Election Day because you are mad about something brings all of these abuses to your doorstep.




1- It is a stain on the United States of America that our government is holding American citizens in wholly unconstitutional prisons. It is heartbreaking that our government has treated mass murdering terrorist better than we have treated these men caught up in the left's January 6 hysteria.

The Gateway Pundit

In Heartbreaking Letter, 34 US Political Prisoners in DC Gulag Demand Transfer to Guantanamo Bay to Escape Intolerable Conditions

QUOTE: Thirty-four US political prisoners of the Biden regime penned a very sad letter this week requesting a transfer to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba facility where they would receive meals, sunlight, freedom of religion, exercise, entertainment, and be treated like human beings.

These thirty-four January 6 political prisoners have been held for over a year and a half without trial for misdemeanors and trumped-up felony charges.

This group of men have been isolated, beaten viciously, abused, threatened, tormented, and belittled by the guards based on their political and religious beliefs.

The men and women have been without medical assistance, medications, exercise, and most of these men have been held in isolation with little human contact for months at a time.

This is America's future if the good people of the country do not stand up and demand an end to this injustice.
These men and women know that if they were to be moved to Gitmo they would not have flooded toilets, mold, flies, and frequent beatings.
(Please go to the links above to read the letter and the names of those who signed it.)




2- Late last Friday, the Governor of the failed state of California and a possible presidential candidate, Gavin Newsom, signed a chilling bill that turns doctors into agents of the state. The state can now revoke the licenses of doctors who, in the privacy of an examination room, may offer medical advice that conflicts with the government's mandate view on COVID-CCP.

Doctors Speak Out Against 'Medical Totalitarianism' as Newsom Signs Bill That Punishes Doctors for COVID 'Misinformation'

QUOTE: California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday signed a bill that subjects the state's doctors to discipline, including the suspension of their medical licenses, for sharing "misinformation" or "disinformation" about COVID-19 with their patients.

Language in the bill points out that the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) has warned that physicians who spread misinformation or disinformation "risk losing their medical license, and ... have a duty to provide their patients with accurate, science-based information."

The FSMB, as previously reported by The Defender, takes money from Big Pharma and has a history of challenging and attacking non-pharmaceutical medical approaches used by integrative doctors as falling outside the "standard of care" as they define it.

The Defender reached out to numerous physicians who support informed consent and medical freedom. Here's what they told us.
(Please go to link above to view these comments from doctors.)





3- They will not stop. Even when their horrible propaganda goals are revealed. This is why in upcoming elections it is vital to support those running for school boards who will work to actually educate children.

'Showing Their True Self': Biden Admin Empowers Teachers Unions To Push Gender Ideology And Critical Race Theory

QUOTE: Teachers unions have a long history of political action, but now teachers unions are advocating for gender identity and Critical Race Theory (CRT) to be taught in schools. This recent push has come because of the support of the Biden administration, experts tell the Daily Caller News Foundation.

As a part of a summer reading list in August, the National Education Association recommended students read "Why We Fly" by Kimberly Jones and Gilly Segal, a book that describes two girls who kneel for the national anthem. The book explicitly talks about marijuana use and is paired with discussion questions on activism.

In September, an Ohio chapter of the National Education Association providedHilliard City Schools in Columbus, Ohio, with LGBTQ ally badges that featured a flag with the words "I'm Here." The badges were for educators to wear in order to show their support for the LGBTQ community.

The badges featured a QR code that took students to the National Education Association's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer+ Caucus website which provides adult resources on sexual education. An Ohio parental rights in education group called the website "age-inappropriate" and said it "crosses the line."

"The current administration actions also show they are on board with making politics and ideologies the priority in the classrooms," Parents Defending Education Director of Community Engagement Mailyn Salabarria told the DCNF, "instead of addressing the historically low proficiency scores of our students and the learning loss they'll suffer for generations to come. And this has emboldened teachers unions and activist teachers to push for even more ideology instead of the basics of academic instruction."





4- When you can't win based on your ideas and all of your political actions are failed lessons in socialism, you must resort to every kind of censorship. This is pure Facism.

This is Not America: Political Censorship Campaign Unconstitutionally Targeted Millions of Americans

QUOTE: The United States government is unconstitutionally targeting millions of Americans for their political speech by directly contracting with private 'third parties' that flag their viewpoints for alleged 'misinformation.'

The federal government has contracted with at least five private companies or public non-profits to 'flag' Americans' views on everything from Covid-19 to the 2020 election.

In an editorial at Just the News, John Solomon and Greg Piper reported on four of these groups, but the report suggests that the radical left's operation to chill free speech is just the tip of the iceberg.

"A consortium of four private groups worked with the departments of Homeland Security (DHS) and State to censor massive numbers of social media posts they considered misinformation during the 2020 election, and its members then got rewarded with millions of federal dollars from the Biden administration afterwards, according to interviews and documents obtained by Just the News."

"The Election Integrity Partnership is back in action again for the 2022 midterm elections, raising concerns among civil libertarians that a chilling new form of public-private partnership to evade the First Amendment's prohibition of government censorship may be expanding," the report adds.




Pray for the political prisoners being unconstitutional jailed by the Biden Regime.
Pray for doctors to act bravely and give medical care as they see fit for their patients.
Pray for Republican candidates that they may be strong in their convictions and avoid evil that surrounds them.


Pray. Know. Share.

Hold Fast,

Defending The Republic

Look into this. Our strategic oil reserves are dangerously low. biden has been using reserves to lower oil prices.. Probably through November election.. Expect prices to rise there after. Hes looking to other countries including Venezuela to buy oil and Iran. The same people who cry about drilling in America are willing to let others, who are not really our allies, do so, and line their pockets

They've already risen 30 cents per gallon in Charlotte overnight and through the day today.
