CEO Tommy Fisher launched an aggressive effort to try and score a contract, making several appearances on Fox News and paying at least $100,000 in lobbying. Fisher also personally lobbied the president, gave hefty donations to Cramer’s Senate campaign, and attacked the Army Corps of Engineers for excluding their firm. Fisher was then Cramer’s guest to Trump’s State of the Union Address in 2019.

“The company also has partnered with right-wing activist group We Build the Wall to construct fencing on private land with millions of dollars raised through online donations,” said the Post.

"I defeated his minions, and he cackled and said, 'Exactly as I planned.'
I discovered his secret fortress. 'Exactly as I planned.'
I breached his defenses, and still he said, 'Exactly as I planned.'
I slew him in single combat, and with his dying breath he gasped, 'Exactly as I planned.'
I stood over his grave and I said, 'You never really got the hang of planning, did you?'"

Bill Clinton's lust, opened the doors to a higher level of corruption. Dick Cheney's greed took the ball and ran. I believe he said, not in these words. You did nothing to stop me, so you get what you deserve. Thinking our nation is beyond repair. Barack Obama, the leader with the highest IQ. Got our nation back on track. While he made disappointing concessions. We were on the road to normalcy. Now we got this narcissistic lunatic, making me wonder, just how far he would go to feed his hunger? Are we the old lady trying to yell, while our false teeth keeps falling out, or are we one nation? So many times, people take cheap shots at the alternative, because they are not brave enough to face the real problem. We need to be a sledgehammer driving home a spike!!! Not a pin nail, and we need to be civilised about it.

“As if an attack on the free press were not enough, the Trump administration’s rush to shutter Stars and Stripes also raises constitutional questions.

The memo ordering the publication’s dissolution claims the administration has the authority to make this move under the president’s fiscal year 2021 defense department budget request. It zeroed out the $15.5 million annual subsidy for Stars and Stripes. But Congress, which under the Constitution has the power to make decisions about how the public’s money is spent, has not yet approved the president’s request.”

In June, Pack hired a lawyer with no background in news to investigate his agency's coverage for potential anti-Trump bias, in a way that appears to violate Voice of America's legal protections of journalistic independence. That investigative attorney has a potentially problematic record himself: he remains under a court order to stay away from his father and to surrender all firearms due to a complaint that he made detailed death threats against his father.

These details appear in publicly available documents from a court proceeding held just 35 miles up the Baltimore-Washington Parkway from USAGM's headquarters. It raises questions about how rigorously the security-minded CEO had vetted his own newly hired legal counselor. And this is not an ancient episode: the court order was filed in early February. It remains in effect through February 2021.

Cohen is saying that Trump didn't really want to be elected president, his run for president in 2016 was a stunt to acquire branding at a hotel in Russia or something.
But then Cohen warns that Trump wants to be dictator and will not leave office on his own two feet.
An apparent contradiction. :coffee:

“A secret cabal is taking over the world. They kidnap children, slaughter, and eat them to gain power from their blood. They control high positions in government, banks, international finance, the news media, and the church. They want to disarm the police. They promote homosexuality and pedophilia. They plan to mongrelize the white race so it will lose its essential power.

Does this conspiracy theory sound familiar? It is. The same narrative has been repackaged by QAnon.

I have studied and worked to prevent genocide for forty years. Genocide Watch and the Alliance Against Genocide, the first international anti-genocide coalition, see such hate-filled conspiracy theories as early warning signs of deadly genocidal violence.

The plot, described above, was the conspiracy “revealed” in the most influential anti-Jewish pamphlet of all time. It was called The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. It was written by Russian anti-Jewish propagandists around 1902. It collected myths about a Jewish plot to take over the world that had existed for hundreds of years. Central to its mythology was the Blood Libel, which claimed that Jews kidnapped and slaughtered Christian children and drained their blood to mix in the dough for matzos consumed on Jewish holidays.

The Nazis published a children’s book of the Protocols that they required in the curriculum of every primary school in Germany. The Nazi newspaper, Der Stürmer (derived from the German word for “Storm”) spread the Blood Libel. Hitler’s Mein Kampf, his narcissistic autobiography and manifesto for his battle against the Jewish plot to rule the world, copied his conspiracy theories from the Protocols.”

February 27th 1933: In Berlin, Germany the Reichstag burns. Arrested as a suspected arsonist, is Dutch communist Marinus van der Lubbe. The National Socialists however suspected the KPD of an attempt to overthrow the government, and took the fire as an opportunity to organize a witch hunt. Many political opponents were kidnapped and taken into so-called protective custody. Fundamental rights of the Constitution are suspended by the means of the so-called "Reichstag Fire Decree”. Despite a large staged show trial by the Nazi leadership, the person responsible for the Reichstag fire has not been determined to this day.
It is not at all unlikely that the fire was set by the Nazis themselves.
American journalist William L. Shirer’s authoritative history of Nazi Germany The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich mentions how at Nuremberg, General Franz Halder stated that he heard Hermann Göring joke at a lunch on the Führer’s birthday in 1943: “The only one who really knows about the Reichstag building is I, for I set fire to it.” Under cross-examination Göring denied he had any involvement, calling Halder’s statement “utter nonsense”.

"Testing everyone is so difficult" because if we did we'd find out 99.9% of us already have it thus it's even less deadly than...

The 0.6% mortality rate as fauxported by the CDC... based on Covid being the only cause of death... since if you die in a car crash with Covid it is still labeled "Covid related" thus the reported death numbers are hogwash..

So, yeah it's actually way more contagious than ya think... but not even remotely as deadly...

But if you're afraid of it, then yeah, stay home while the rest of us pay your bills. :coffee:
