4 years ago, Trump was trying hard to make Hunter BIden's dick pics central to the election.

Today, we're in a heated discussion about the proper way to describe a ranting old man running for President by telling stories about a deceased pro golfer's dick.

i’m disheartened to see so many people praising sinwar for throwing a stick/fighting until the end.

nobody said it was great that bin laden put up a fight as the us seals stormed his compound.

whatever you think about israel (and the united states), sinwar was a terrorist personally responsible for unspeakable brutality against innocent people. i find nothing about his life or death inspiring.

Trump said he talked to Nentanyahu today and Bibi told him he's not listening to Biden

Kamala Harris in Atlanta: Now, he's ducking debates and canceling interviews because of exhaustion. And have you noticed he tends to go off script and ramble? And generally for the life of him cannot finish a thought. And he calls it the weave. We here would call it nonsense.

Jack Smith Appendix vol 4, page 352-364 is Peter Navarro's violation of the Hatch Act. Peter will get more prison.. but this is only small slice of all of his crimes

How do you decrease gender-based discrimination in mixed-gender teams.... simple: make a woman team leader!

'in one experiment a male or female team leader was appointed, with big effects: “Assigning a female leader reduces the rate at which individual teammates discriminate against women by more than 50%.”'

Its an easy move to make but how many men will agree to be led by a woman... and therein may lie the problem!

Jack Smith Appendix Vol 4, page 305 onwards is the budget for Jan 6th event ($3 million). Fascinating. and patently clear, this is not a government 'official' event, it is a political rally
