NIXON:– and I'll tell you something, Bob, nobody's thought of this. Nobody. I had it last night, up in the residence, couldn't sleep, and I went down and I made myself this, this thing.
HALDEMAN: A thing, sir.
NIXON: Pineapple. Chunks of pineapple. In the Kool-Aid. You put the chunks in and they go down, they sink, see, and you've got the, the red and the yellow, and you drink it and you get the pineapple at the bottom. Nobody's done this.
HALDEMAN: I'm fairly sure people have done this, sir.
NIXON: Who. Name one. Name one person.
[EIGHT SECONDS OF SILENCE]
HALDEMAN: I can't name a specific–
NIXON: Because there isn't one. This is mine. Now here's the thing, Bob, and I want you to think about this before you give me one of your – your looks. The Catholics. The ethnics. The, the...you know. Your blue-collar fella in Scranton, in Cleveland. He sees the President of the United States drinking a jar of this, this...out of a jar, Bob, not a glass, a jar, because that's what these people do, they keep the empty jam jars...he sees that, and he thinks, that's a regular guy. That's a fella who understands.
HALDEMAN: Understands pineapple.
NIXON: Understands sacrifice. Understands thrift. You don't throw out the jar.
[DOOR OPENING]
KISSINGER: Mr President, the briefing on the– is this a bad time?
NIXON: Henry. Henry, sit down. Tell him, Bob.
HALDEMAN: The President has invented pineapple Kool-Aid.
KISSINGER: I beg your pardon?
NIXON: Pineapple. In the Kool-Aid.
[TWELVE SECONDS OF SILENCE]
KISSINGER: And this is...we are discussing this in place of the communique from Zhou Enlai.
Imagine you are a dental hygienist and live in Sweden..
You are employed to help “migrant children” with their dental issues.
As part of your job you examine the wisdom teeth development of the kids and you notice that 80% of those “kids” have fully formed wisdom teeth, implying they are not kids at all but adults older than the age of 18.
You tell the Swedish Migration Agency and they advise you to put it in writing.
When you send exact details, with examples of specific patients you are suspended, investigated and fired for disclosing private information relating to patients.
This happened to Bernt Herlitz in 2017.
When he appealed the unfair dismissal he ultimately lost and was fined about $50,000.
He and his family faced financial hardship and almost lost their home, until some generous benefactors raised money for him. Bernt remains unemployed today, despite staff shortages for dentists in his area in Gotland.
At the time, Sweden scoffed at the tests and claimed they were “discriminatory” but since then they have quietly brought in mass dental testing, for those whose age is in doubt, by the National Board of Forensic Medicine.
Bernt deserves a medal. Not vilification and unemployment.
@ArtisanAles1 You will like the Woomba woomba noise music everybody copied after TENET came out, you will enjoy her balancing being a Girlboss Kickass Operator Woman along with being a great mom.
@dumbbitchcap If it was the McDonalds line we never would have heard from you again. We would look wistfully at a sunset, remembering those tweets. The good times. The heart of Dumb Bitch Capital, LLC.
