all of their ideas now are like “should we dissolve the government, imprison our opponents, and seize every lever of power in the country? we’re the good guys remember, if we don’t do this the bad guys will win (an election)” like they don’t even talk about healthcare anymore lol
@whignewtons “Our founders would be shocked by the current constitutional order... They would be confused that so many of its more than 500 members seem to have no further ambition than to act like glorified Instagram influencers.” 👏
It hurts. The genocide is accelerating in Nigeria. The Nigerian leaders are watching, the world is watching. Their blood is filling the gullies and we simply jump over without any feeling of sorrow. As if we do not notice.
NEW: Per the federal complaint vs the Palisades Fire arson suspect Jonathan Rinderknecht, he asked Chat GPT “Are you at fault if a fire is lift [sic] because of your cigarettes" shortly after cell phone data placed him at the scene of a fire breaking out in the Palisades in the early morning hours of New Year's Day.
Investigators say he had just dropped off an Uber rider in the Palisades, then surveillance video shows him driving up to and parking at the Skull Rock trailhead.
He then allegedly walked up the trail to an area known as the "Hidden Budha". A short time later, cameras began to detect the start of what would later turn into the Palisades Fire. Feds say Rinderknecht then repeatedly tried to call 911, with his phone data placing him 30 feet away from the fire's ignition.
Feds say he then drove away from the fire as fire engines passed by him as they raced to put it out, then later watched firefighters try to fight the flames, and offered to help them fight it, which they describe as "unusual behavior".
Feds say their investigation ruled out fireworks, power lines, refraction of sunlight on glass, and lightning as the source of ignition. Despite his Chat GPT search regarding cigarettes, Feds say they also ruled out cigarettes as the cause of the fire.
Feds say they are confident the suspect was the only person in the area at the time of the fire's ignition, and no other cell phone's were pinging in the area, and that the suspect admitted to bringing a lighter up on the trail with him.
IMPORTANT:
"The investigative team determined that the cause of the Lachman Fire was incendiary, i.e., an
intentional ignition of a fire in an area or under circumstances where or when there should not be a fire. The cause of the fire was determined to be the introduction of an open flame (likely a lighter) to a combustible material such as vegetation or paper."
In which I argue Biden did more to undermine the rule of law than any president in history: Jackson, Lincoln, Wilson, Bush, Obama, Trump (ok maybe he didn’t beat Wilson): https://t.co/AaxJqq6joR
