To all the women yelling about postpartum and psychosis, and empathizing with a mother who methodically strangled her three young children to death in her basement: Lindsay Clancy’s alleged postpartum psychosis has not been proven.
That’s the entire point of this trial.
Her defense is arguing she was in a state of postpartum psychosis that destroyed her ability to know what she was doing was wrong or to control her actions.
The prosecution is fighting that claim. Multiple doctors who treated her testified they did not see psychosis. Prosecutors say her actions looked planned and deliberate.
Whether she was truly in psychosis that wipes out criminal responsibility is what the jury has to decide.
It is not a settled fact.
So now would be a good time to stop posting your unhinged, idiotic TikTok videos.
1907: Electric lights replace candles. Procter & Gamble's candle business collapses. They pivot to soap but animal fats are expensive.
They need cheaper alternatives. Enter cottonseed oil.
Cotton seeds contain oil, but it's toxic to humans - gossypol, a natural pesticide. The seeds are agricultural waste, fed to cattle in small amounts or discarded.
But chemically extract the oil, heat it to extreme temperatures, hydrogenate it with pressurized hydrogen gas, and you get solid white fat that looks like lard but costs pennies.
They patent it in 1907, launch Crisco in 1911. Crystallized cottonseed oil.
Industrial waste transformed into soap substitute.
Except they don't market it as soap. They market it as food.
Problem: nobody wants to eat textile manufacturing waste processed with industrial chemicals. Your grandmother cooks with lard and tallow like humans have for thousands of years.
Solution: Convince America that animal fats are killing them.
Procter & Gamble spends millions on marketing. Cookbooks, radio shows, free samples. They target Jewish communities advertising Crisco as kosher - "neither meat nor dairy!"
But the genius move: 1948. The American Heart Association has $1,700 in their budget. Procter & Gamble donates $1.7 million.
Suddenly the AHA has funding and influence. And suddenly they're very interested in dietary causes of heart disease.
1961: The AHA issues first dietary guidelines. Avoid saturated fat from animals. Replace with vegetable oils. Recommended oils: Crisco, Wesson, and other seed oils.
Who benefits: Procter & Gamble. Who funded the AHA: Procter & Gamble.
The conflict is blatant. Nobody cares.
Never mind that humans ate animal fats for millions of years without epidemic heart disease. Never mind that seed oils oxidize rapidly and integrate into cell membranes creating inflammation for years.
Industrial cottonseed waste is now "heart healthy" and butter is "artery-clogging poison."
1980s: Trans fats are discovered to be catastrophically unhealthy. They directly cause heart disease.
Procter & Gamble's response: Quietly reformulate, keep selling seed oils, never acknowledge their "heart healthy" product spent 70 years actively causing disease.
No apologies. No compensation. Just reformulate and continue.
Modern research shows seed oils cause oxidative stress, inflammatory cascades, mitochondrial dysfunction, increased cancer risk, and neurodegenerative disease.
Your body requires exactly zero grams. They didn't exist in human diets until 1911.
But Procter & Gamble needed to sell soap alternatives and accidentally created the largest dietary change in human history. We traded animal fats that built civilizations for factory waste that causes disease.
The soap company won.
When things are moving very fast and people are losing their minds, it’s important to stay grounded. Turn off your phone, read scripture, spend time with friends, and remember internet fury is not real life. It’s going to be ok.
POV: You used a firearm in self defense and are about to be thrown in jail for decades because you didn’t retreat from the violent, 34x felon who was threatening your wife with a knife first
They’re cracking under pressure.
• Instacart hit JobsNow with a copyright strike just for posting one of their visa ads.
• Lawyers are threatening citizens with fake claims that it’s illegal to apply.
• LinkedIn is full of attorneys begging companies to hire H-1Bs.
• Big firms like Walmart are already backing away after scandals.
• Job boards are locking down visa postings.
These aren’t signs of strength. They’re signs of desperation.
The whole system was not prepared for what we’ve done. They don’t have the resources to outwait us. If it looks bad for them now, watch what happens as we keep it up.
And if you’re an H-1B stuck in one of these organizations in a death spiral, the time to act and come forward is now. They will sacrifice you before you ever get the chance otherwise.
Effective immediately we are pausing all issuance of worker visas for commercial truck drivers.
The increasing number of foreign drivers operating large tractor-trailer trucks on U.S. roads is endangering American lives and undercutting the livelihoods of American truckers.
Those seeking to “return to the founding” should remember the foreign policy expressed in Washington’s farewell address
Treating any foreign nation with favored status will divide and subvert the US
That means you can take that foreign flag out of your bio, yes that one
European leaders of today have a vision of the future in which you have two options:
1. Die in a ditch in the Donbass
2. Get run over by a Muslim in your hometown
So lemme get this straight.
I’ve been busting my ass my whole life, trying to make ends meet, while the government steals my income and uses it to fund trans musicals in Ireland and sex changes in Guatemala?
Let me get this straight. Fauci’s NIAID and @USAID sent over $40M in U.S. taxpayer “support” to a scientist in Wuhan who was working on “bat coronavirus emergence” research, who also became “patient zero” for COVID-19?
And the completion date for that funding was … in 2019???
