Yoy are probably right. It looks more like this is a pretext to cause a recession in Canada which would doom the already flailing Trudeau presidency. Even if Canada adopted the kind of border policy the Trump wanted, that still wouldn't stop illegals or drugs.

He said he would impose the tariffs if he can't hammer out a deal on illegal immigration and drug smuggling. In other words he's leaving a way out

Get this: after over 240 years of accusations of election fraud the first time an audit was conducted was in 2020. When there was no evidence of fraud.

People forget that Manson was a total narcissist who got off over getting other people to do murders. His murderer pals made him feel small for never having gotten his tiny hands dirty. So he is more than likely lying about having committed murders.

Imagine being such a pathetic piece of shit that you lie about murdering people to fit in with other tremendous pieces of dookie.

That's a great point. The Trump team tried to get all voter information from all states in 2020. Ostensibly to verify voter fraud. But this data was probably used to create such voter suppression systems as Eagle AI.

So they know who you voted for.

He probably got to avoid having sex tapes released. Epstein was probably working with multiple intelligence agencies. The Russians probably just paid the most for those videos.

If they live in swing states they are.

Ideally third party candidates could get concessions from either Republicans or democrats in exchange for an endorsement. Kennedy got some completely insane concessions from trump for example.

But Stein hasn't been reported to have asked the dems for anything. Which means the green party is trying to get trump elected. My guess is that Stein got concessions from trump to stay in the race.

Lots of people probably aren't aware that Trump's crew has published a manifesto saying they will eliminate the FDA.

The reason she won't is because of aggressive redistricting and roll purging by de santis. The polls are of likely voters. The thing about roll purges is it means people who thought they were registered to vote won't be able to.

In fact most states in which trump's minions have established control over the election apparatus will have a strong red shift away from the polls.

That is a very interesting observation. The anthropologists Davids Graeber and Wengrow studied how human groups had been controlled by charismatic leadership going back into prehistory. These groups could become authoritarian dictatorships which wage wars against their neighbors, engage in slavery, and human sacrifice. Alternatively when they were egalitarian and controlled by democratic institutions they were the opposite. More peaceful and equal.

For men you have a white power gang in almost every federal and state lockup. But because gangs like the Aryan Brotherhood are patriarchal institutions, women are not permitted to be full members. As such, when a female white supremacist ends up in jail, she is far less likely to find a group which shares the same political views.

As a gym rat and bicyclist i was having health issues. No drugs or alcohol. Lots of supplements.

I went oxalate free on a zero carb diet for several years and it fixed my auto immune disorder. I lost 30 pounds of muscle in the process because of a loss in appetite. I slowly readded foods into my diet. Turned out that I couldn't handle salicylates in large amounts. It's in most plants as well. 3% of the population shares my intolerance. We can't eat spices or herbs.

All humans have individual variances in our ability to process plant toxins. There's a reason why some people are more prone to kidney stones than others. It doesn't mean someone is unhealthy.

The only person who did anything helpful got sent to jail (reality winner)

They kept the war on drugs going and started smuggling drugs into black neighborhoods to fund anti democratic despots overseas

Kennedy would end up firing Allan Dulles because he had tricked Kennedy into Bay of Pigs. These guys had a reputation for misleading presidents.

He probably didn't know. Bush shuffled Cheney off to the margins and had Rummy resign in 2006 when he realized that he had been manipulated. From then on he leaned heavily on Condoleeza Rice. But the main thing is that the Dulles brothers were long gone.

We have to distinguish between the Dulles Brothers and Eisenhower. The brothers were two of the biggest gangsters to ever step foot in DC. Because they were allowed to run operations without the knowledge of the president and they lied and manipulated presidents is not completely clear what Eisenhower knew.

You are completely right. There's an entire ecosystem of right wing propaganda channels out there but most people get their news from their friends. It's the key phenomenon behind influencer culture. And that's how most of the damage is done.

If someone has one friend who is considered knowledgeable on current affairs and that one friend watches Fox, chances are that none of his associates will have an accurate understanding of any given topic. And that's by design. The kind of tripe spread on fox news is inflammatory and salacious. The sort of noxious trash you'd share with friends in private conversation.

I realize this is what TikTok and facebook maximize: The friend effect. People learn from their friends. The kind of lies spread by right wing networks is magnified by social media and Russian bot farms.

We have to take the election fraud seriously. The only reason a felon like trump, facing jailtime, would take it easy is if he knew he was guaranteed the presidency in November. Either he got assurances from the Supreme Court or he knows something we dont.

But we're there any better platforms that people were using? The problem was that all the alternatives were doing next tot nothing for countering disinformation. Twitter was the best of a bad situation.
