Look ma! No AR 15!

How did we go from "We want the freedom to do what we please in our own bedroom" to "Everyone else must see what we do in our own bedroom?"

Cornell West praising China's "public response" to COVID, blindly accepting their fake numbers as true. Of course ^this video was in 2022. In 2023, after China ended COVID-Zero, they had 1.4 million to as high as 2 million estimated COVID deaths as opposed to America's 1.2 million COVID deaths. Jimmy Dore, who was greatly awakened by the vaccine issue, called Cornel West out here.

Yep. https://www.nasa.gov/technology/carbon-dioxide-fertilization-greening-earth-study-finds/

Are you SERIOUSLY arguing that a tax increase that the globalists have been pushing for will cause the globalists to "let the market decide?" What "market?" The market is already deciding this is all hogwash.

Yes. You heard increase taxes on everybody else and (most likely) cut taxes for Elon Musk. If you learned one thing from COVID it should be YOU CANNOT TRUST "THE" SCIENCE! There is no such thing as "scientific consensus" yet you hear control freaks demand you trust the so called "scientific consensus" on lockdowns, mRNA vaccines, not wearing masks, wearing masks, shutting down schools, blaming Trump for allowing the schools to be shut down, common sense gun control because gun violence is a "national health emergency", puberty blockers for 8 year old kids, double mastectomies for 13 year old girls, castration for 16 year old boys, not telling obese people they are unhealthy, the benefits of genetically modified everything, turning yourself into a cyborg with brain implants (another Elon Musk initiative) and the benefits of killing yourself if you are autistic or depressed. Science is great if it's used in the service of humanity. Science become evil if humanity is forced to serve it.

Hogwash! I could speak just as freely on the internet before Elon bought Twitter as I can after. Twitter is not the Internet!

He's about to make himself much richer. What's unintelligent about that? Unethical perhaps but quite intelligent.

I'm shocked that anybody is shocked that a billionaire owner of an electronic vehicle company might want more money.

Really? I don't recall not being able to say what I think. Oh...you mean I can say what I think on Twitter. Because the only way I can say what I think on the Internet is to go to some "platform" that I can be thrown off but for the benevolence of Elon Musk because I can't just launch my own blog on my own webserver and connect with other like minded people or launch my own Mastodon or create my own free community or get on the Hive.io blockchain and build my own Ecency community or follow the path of World Wide Web creator Sir Tim Berners-Lee and join the Solid network where I own my own data. Nope. Gotta go with Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg or the Google / Alphabet shareholders or whoever owns TikTok or..... The door to freedom in the Internet is staring us all right in the face if only a critical mass of people would walk through it.

Why are you surprised? He fucking literally owns an electric vehicle company. He's trying to convince people to become cyborgs and take brain chips. You thought because he smoked weed on Joe Rogan and let Trump back on Twitter that he was somehow on the side of freedom? Bwwaaaaahhhaaaa! Imagine what would have happened if Musk had NOT bought Twitter. Twitter was about to implode from anybody who still had any shred of human decency abandoning the platform for alternatives like Mastedon and LBRY.TV and HIVE.IO. Then Musk bought the platform, let SOME people back on, and the conservative / moderate flight from Twitter ended. Trump's own "Truth Social" is now as worthless pump and dump stock because....Trump's back on Twitter. (He still tried to make money off of Truth Social. LOL suckers!) Musk is down with the agenda. All of his "anti woke" stuff is just to keep you on board and not looking behind the curtain cause you think he's on your side.

Well since you brought up Scott Joplin, check this out.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Brian4Liberty again.

Assault knifes have unlimited magazine capacity.

So I looked up this case. Sounds like the judge concluded a lack of intent, possibly because the mother was high at the time. Sounds like he applied the intoxication doctrine. The problem is that doctrine is specifically not applicable under Indiana law unless you were intoxicated involuntarily or you didn't know the substance might cause intoxication. So yeah, BS call there. He most likely felt sorry for her but that's not his job as a judge. Heart wrenching part: During the trial, investigators learned that Lacey’s other daughter, who was three at the time of Alona’s death, witnessed her mother taking a pillow and smothering the baby. The judge also said this:

We'll you're right. The story is from 2019.

Meh. Each side pushes the envelope each chance they get. Trump's bump fire stock ban by executive order paved the way for Biden's pistol brace ban. The Republicans impeaching Bill over sex perjury paved the way for Trump being impeached for a phone call asking for a lawful investigation and Trump being prosecuted over sex hush money. Bush started doing drone strikes, Obama droned a U.S. citizen and his son, Trump droned his daughter a later a general who was a guest of an ally. Obama bombed a doctors without borders hospital. I shudder to think what's next.

I didn't even know Alejandro Mayorkas was Jewish. From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alejandro_Mayorkas#Early_life_and_education Alejandro Nicholas Mayorkas was born in Havana, Cuba, on November 24, 1959. When he was one year old, his parents fled with him and his sister to the United States in 1960 as refugees, following the Cuban Revolution. He lived in Miami, Florida, before his family moved to Los Angeles, California, where he was raised for the remainder of his youth. Mayorkas grew up in Beverly Hills and attended Beverly Hills High School. His father, Charles R. "Nicky" Mayorkas, was born in Cuba. He was a Cuban Jew of Sephardi (from the former Ottoman Empire, present-day Turkey and Greece) and Ashkenazi (from Poland) background. He owned and operated a steel wool factory on the outskirts of Havana. Nicky Mayorkas studied economics at Dartmouth College. His mother, Anita (Gabor), was a Romanian Jew whose family escaped the Holocaust and fled to Cuba in the 1940s before leaving for the United States after the Cuban Revolution. Mayorkas graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 1981 with a Bachelor of Arts degree with distinction. He received his Juris Doctor in 1985 from Loyola Law School, where he was an editor of the Loyola of Los Angeles Entertainment Law Review.

They should have impeached Biden.

This part of the story always bugged me: In 2019, then-National Intelligence Council analyst Eric Ciaramella touched off a political firestorm when he anonymously accused Trump of linking military aid for Ukraine to a demand for an investigation into alleged Biden corruption in that country. But four years earlier, while working as a national security analyst attached to then-Vice President Joe Biden’s office, Ciaramella was a close adviser when Biden threatened to cut off U.S. aid to Ukraine unless it fired its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Ukraine-based Burisma Holdings. At the time, the corruption-riddled energy giant was paying Biden’s son Hunter millions of dollars. Those payments – along with other evidence tying Joe Biden to his family’s business dealings – received little attention in 2019 as Ciaramella accused Trump of a corrupt quid pro quo. Neither did subsequent evidence indicating that Hunter Biden’s associates had identified Shokin as a “key target.” These matters are now part of the House impeachment inquiry into President Biden. So Biden did exactly what Trump was accused of doing, holding up military aid to influence and Ukrainian investigation, and yet only Trump was attacked for this. Insane.

So one thing I think almost everybody here can agree on is that COVID-19 was a psyop. That doesn't mean the virus wasn't real. (I know the David Icke position is that it wasn't). But based on everything we know, including Rand Paul's recent revelations, the grants for the GOF research predate Trump even thinking about running for POTUS. Imagine if Jeb Bush has been president when COVID hit and allowed Fauci to lock down most of the country and gave vaccine manufacturers immunity? Or imagine Hillary Clinton doing that? Imagine the scientific dictatorship that said you can't go to church or school or Thanksgiving, or the beach or the park, but said you could mass protest or go to liquor stores, bars and hook up off Tinder under a Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush administration? Imagine if Clinton or Bush and tweeted against Georgia or Florida opening up sooner? There were armed mass protest in Michigan over Whitmere doing tyranny locally. But nationally the people most resistant to this type of tyranny were most likely to trust the man in charge. If Trump gets back in, it's important not to give him a pass on anything.

Wow! Trying to confirm the story. Do you have a reference?
