Could the fan and the feces be heading for a meeting? ... or ... is RT.com being censored by Uncle Sam?

You misspelled the URL.

You are wrong again FleaDriver.

This is the address in the address bar https://www.rt.com/news/547948-met-police-report-racism/ which I pared down after it didn't open and it still didn't open down to https://www.rt.com/

RT.com has been nobbled.

It works for me:

https://www.rt.com/news/547948-met-police-report-racism/

Still doesn't work for me clicking the link in your post.

"This site can’t be reachedwww.rt.com unexpectedly closed the connection."

It appears to be Google Chrome that is blocking the connection. I tried Opera and it works.

Good - I don't like Chrome - I prefer Mozilla Firefox
but I allocate it lots of memory and I have plenty of memory to spare.

The fatty protrusions in FleaDriver's scalp are distorting the sound leading FleaDriver to misunderstand the morse code tapped on his cranium.

A larger steel hammer might produce a result that would please FleaDriver.
