"It's entirely possible that we're on the verge of a total Nazi takeover of the U.S. government, is the thing. ...

It's almost like most people in our media and many in our country are more committed to telling comforting fictions than to observing the actual swastika that's actually flapping around. It's almost as if people are more interested in finding a way to not know things that are difficult to ignore than they are in simply looking around and knowing."

I hope they start covering this in the way it should be, as in daily.

I think that the "disinhibition" diagnosis of dementia has strong evidence supporting it at this point especially after his public statement about how much he envies the size Arnold Palmer's cock was.

The swear words though I'm not so sure of since when he uses those are when he gets the most positive reaction from the freaks that go to his rallies. That adoration is what he wants most of all.

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

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

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
