@AsraNomani@geraldposner $3 billion “nonprofit industry”—somehow there seems as though there ought to be a contradiction there somewhere. I mean I’m pretty sure I could prevent any American kingship for $0.
Don’t think it’s that simple when done in blue localities. If the ballots are favoring Republicans, the authorities will find some means to invalidate them, and then go after the harvesters for violating some minor aspect of election law. Republicans doing this will potentially face legal costs and even loss of their freedom.
So 60 Minutes does a bit on how a crusading lawyer bravely takes on Big Oil which is greedily destroying the environment. But it turns out the lawyer is a con man who gets sent to prison while Big Oil is the only honorable actor in this tale. Typical of MSM who will eagerly twist reality to illustrate the depredations of a bogeyman like Big Oil.
But it also shows how readily an institution such as 60 Minutes will spread “disinformation.” When leftists talk about the need for censorship to stop the spread of disinformation, presumably they will include 60 Minutes as one of those media entities that needs censoring.
Here is an actual real-world powerful, productive girl boss. Presumably something left-leaning feminists would want to celebrate. Instead we hear mostly griping from that quarter as though the Space X ipo is some threat to humankind. For the left, “female empowerment” is only important if it furthers a leftist agenda. If it doesn’t, they couldn’t care less.
@peter_rauterkus Reminiscent of the Professor Wagstaff bit—
Have we got a college?
Have we got a stadium?
Well we can’t support both. Tomorrow we start tearing down the college.
@mirandadevine Hmm, apparently the source of this is entirely from Stahl herself via the NYT. Consequently I would take this not with a grain, but a truckload of salt.
The German commander of Das Reich during this period was Heinz Lammerding. He was sentenced to death by the French after the war; however the West Germans refused to extradite him. He died of natural causes in 1971. His funeral was an opportunity for old SS comrades to have a reunion. Very touching.
@newsobserver May I suggest a theme for Asheville’s next tourist campaign—
Whether you’re running from the law or just seeking new adventures—ESCAPE TO ASHEVILLE!
In the Federalist, Hamilton strongly argued against adding a so-called bill of rights to the Constitution. One of his arguments was that historically, they were created to limit the power of monarchs to give more power to the people. But with the Constitution, “we the people” were given all the power. What sense did it make then, for the people to limit the power of—we the people.
@douglassmackey The decisions that resulted in firing Herridge and Attkisson while retaining this repugnant narcissist help to explain why Bari Weiss is now head of CBS news.
“They (the police) didn’t do their job.” Thanks for that brilliant insight into the Nowak case. The real issue is—WHY DIDN’T THE POLICE DO THEIR JOB? Might it be the result of attitudes that Camilla Tominey is talking about—In any conflict between a white and a minority, just assume the white must be at fault.
@JohnMcCloy Dana Bash with the Jedi mind tricks—
There is no ballot election fraud in California. Taking weeks to count votes is completely normal. You do not want to question this ever. Just go on with your lives.
@Tryng2lookahead@Handre Google can be your friend—“Between 1876 and 1879, the United States economy experienced a period of significant real economic expansion, with Gross National Product (GNP/GDP) growing by roughly 21% cumulatively.”
@ChaseLinds83754@MattWalshBlog Gary Busey is hilarious as geriatric Gen. Joe Wheeler who had served in the Confederacy. He has the tendency to get excited about beating the “Yankees” and his son has to remind him—Dad, we’re not fighting the Yankees any more, we’re fighting the Spanish.
@BenBarryJones On its surface, this seems like a perfect example to elicit protests from the feminist/Pride communities. Instead we mostly hear a thunderous silence. It makes one wonder what their real concerns may be.
“There is no “length of time” in which things happen. There is only the reality of things which have a time dimension. . . . what we call “time” is the mode of lastingness peculiar to the astrophysical universe which permits its dimension of time to be measured by its movements in space. But this mode of lastingness is not a “time” in which things happen, but the time dimension of a thing within the Whole that also comprises the divine reality whose mode of lastingness we express in such terms as “eternity.” Things do not happen in the astrophysical universe, the universe, together with all things founded in it, happens in God.”—Eric Voegelin
