I'm not ready to dismiss him on that. People change. The RFK Jr. of 2024 is not the same RFK Jr. of 1984. Or look at Dr. Phil for instance.

jmdrake replied to a thread Growing Indicators of Brennan's CIA Trump Task Force in U.S. Political News

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.

The swing states are all that matters. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-poll-swing-states-joe-biden-1890829 Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in five of six swing states that could potentially decide who wins the 2024 election, according to a poll. An Echelon Insights survey of 2,401 registered voters, conducted for the conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, shows that Trump is ahead of Biden in Arizona (51 percent to 45 percent), Georgia (52 percent to 42 percent), Michigan (51 percent to 45 percent), Nevada (51 percent to 44 percent) and Pennsylvania (49 percent to 45 percent). Biden is behind by 4 or more points in 5 of 6 swing states. That's a recipe for an electoral college landslide if this holds.

True. Kennedy's willingness to give Israel a blank check gives me pause and disqualifies him as a true "America Firster." Of course I can't think of a single person running this year I agree with on foreign policy except possibly Cornell West. (He's against aid to Israel and Ukraine.) But Dr. West loses me in his blind support of the Fauci COVID policy among other things. It's just refreshing to see SOMEBODY hitting Trump on these issues. I don't recall any of the GOP candidates calling him out of this crap. Nikki Haley certainly couldn't because she was part of the swamp.

FFS I don't "hate" you. It's called a disagreement...in America that's still allowed. I just don't think that plan would work. Maybe I'm wrong. YMMV And Carter still managed to pull off some bad stunts, like not backing out of the Panama Canal treaty which has now, 50 years later, allowed the Chinese to buy up critical infrastructure in the canal zone.

You've got DECADES of significant decreases in deaths with regards to VMT combined with a small blip of an increase and you're ignoring all other factors other than immigration such as distracted driving. https://martinhelms.com/blog/why-are-americas-roads-so-dangerous/#:~:text=From%202020%20to%202021%2C%20the,approximately%2016%2C500%20wrecks%20per%20day. Again, most of the people immigrating to America are coming from countries who drivers are as safe or safer than white American drivers. And you still haven't explained why you ignored black countries who have driving safety records as good as the best white countries.

A beautiful story to accompany a beautiful piece. The proper work at the proper time can pierce the soul and, to quote F. Murray Abraham: "these were compositions from a trained monkey.

I do not expect to get better results or different results than 2016-2020. Right now I'll settle for no wars, some regulation relief, and transqueeers not running around naked on the White House lawn, and just another day to try and get my fellows citizens off their collective asses and do something. At this rate, if nothing changes, we'll all be silenced or in prison in another four years.

In 2012 there were 1.14 people killed per 100 million VMT. The estimated fatality rate for 2023 is 1.26. 1.14 is more than 1.26. Yes, it has fallen from 2022 rate, and I already noted that. Come back and call me an asshole in five years, if those trends continue.

There's no disputing that Kennedy is correct here. Trump did all those things and more, furthermore, for supposedly being this ace business man who knows how to build winning teams and appoint quality subordinates, he is one of the worst I have ever seen. That said, even though he may be attacking "from the right", Kennedy is no conservative, populist, or an "American Firster". I do not need a "leader", what I need is a representative, a mouthpiece. I know what needs to be done in my life and the life of my country.

That is where your error is. Just because there are more people, does not mean there are more drivers. In fact, licensed drivers have decreased at times, even as the population grows. There were a total of 228,195,802 licensed drivers in the US in 2020, a decrease of 0.21% or 483,917 licensed drivers from 2019. By 2023 estimated growth grew again, but only by 2 percent.
