Donald Trump Slammed for 'Lying' About Tax Audits Halting Records' Release

racocn8 comments on Dec 21, 2022:

What is critical here is a sample of the strategy Trump used for his subversion. Specifically, putting utterly corrupt loyalists in key position. In this case, it was the head of the IRS. Not only did Trump stop his own audit, but corruptly ordered and got audits of those he believed were his poiitical enemies. Trump did this throughout the government in a sweeping infiltration and destruction of lawful operation. Just by memory, this would include the FBI, NSC, DHS, DOJ, CDC. The real problem is that Trump's stooges found willing support in the agencies to subvert US policies. The US antiquated Constitutional system does not adequately (by a long shot) commit itself to stopping corruption. Without that value, it will be a constant struggle to keep up, and will fail much of the time.

racocn8 comments on Dec 21, 2022:

It is interesting that Trump has so much mental investment in Hunter Biden's laptop. He claims the release of HB's info would somehow have changed the election. But it's not at all clear that any of the contents of the laptop was of consequence. The GQP have released nothing but a few lurid pictures of HB; certainly not a word about corruption of the sort Trump and the GQP have been commiting. It is clear from Jan 6 Cmte testimony that Trump knew he lost. The FBI discussion is thumb-in-the-eye signaling that Wray was successful in suppressing a meaningful response against the Jan 6 seditionists. It's critical to understand how this signaling is encoded. Projection is put out to spite the Democrats. Accuse the other side of what you, yourself are guilty of.

Lately, the hate cult has embraced fascism and climate change denial. That means the Christians are waging war on the US and the species.

racocn8 comments on Dec 19, 2022:

I was reading Greek mythology today and they have a lot of stories of this and that demi-god going down or coming up (to heaven/Mt. Olympus), and familial relationships between the gods. The above is all too similar, and bears no resemblance to the basic concept of (a monotheistic) god. Contriving all this personality, performance art and acting out is far closer to the Greek bard's songs than to anything like divine profundity. And that's the point. All the dramatics is distraction from the complete lack of real wisdom or the providing of useful information about what we are and why we are here. Which is also why the recognition of evolution DOES represent a singular profound transcendental understanding of ourselves and all the life around us - - a revelation far outstripping anything in any religious scriptures.

I wish it were otherwise, but we can now see all too clearly that the dystopia we live in is a linear continuation of the vicious, wretched degenerate values of the past; values embraced by Christians far more tightly than any flag. In a way, it is entirely appropriate for the Trump and the Christians to embrace the flag. Some of the ideals it represents are OK, but the universal amnesia of the countless misdeeds is sickening.

But then, the author, William Engdahl, hails from Germany.

Calm down. There's no NIF fusion power "breakthrough" - Big Think

racocn8 comments on Dec 17, 2022:

From the article: "Either way, the machine takes hours to recover from each experiment. The fact that NIF is able to do this once per day is a technical achievement that took years to perfect. Making it happen 10,000 times faster is absurdly difficult. " "...the world’s entire supply of tritium is something like 50 pounds. In 2020, the market cost of tritium was nearly $1 million per ounce. Livermore scientists estimate that a commercial operation modeled on NIF would require two pounds per day." Why these hacks feel the need to issue bullshit press releases should be investigated. Numerous other fusion devices are much closer to functional fusion than this obsolete slide rule. Assholes. And the media are science idiots. We'll see cold fusion before NIF achieves real break-even! Tritium has an 11 year half-life making it an extremely hazardous isotope and equipment contaminant. What IS interesting is why fusion works, which is that the rest mass of the products is less than the rest mass of the starting materials by a tiny, tiny bit. But when you multiply that tiny difference times the speed of light squared, it's a lot of energy.

Now if she had objected on the basis of biological science, insisting on pronouns appropriate to the child's actual genetics, she'd be on much stronger ground. Children will always search out an angle to express insubordination. Allowing children to dictate social norms of behavior is ridiculous. If they don't like their correct and accurate pronoun, they can take their book and study it in detention. Claims of sexual dysphoria can be respected without them being encouraged or facilitated.

A monotheistic god is a relatively modern invention, and only replaced animistic spirits in the last two thousand years. Evolution essentially disproves the Christian god with its overwhelming evidence. Science reveals some remarkable puzzles: The symmetry of the Standard Model, the order of physics, 'fine tuning'... One could propose a god for that, but the proposal is actually a god-of-the-gaps argument with still no evidence, and not really explaining anything. If there were a god, it has hidden itself from us and given no (meaningful nor reliable) instructions. Such a god is SO elusive that if said god were no longer existing, no one could tell the difference.

Good luck with that. Psilocybin has been found to be effective for alcoholism and tobacco addiction, PTSD, depression, etc. However, the country is largely controlled by the religious right. After 80 years of using cannabis to demonize non-whites, they're not about to change. States claim to decriminalize, but then enact regulations that effectively re-criminalize. While millions benefit from CBD, the FDA and DEA refuse to reschedule CBD or THC. The police make incredible amounts of money by theft, 'forfeiture', protection, etc so they're not about to give all that up and it's a fight every step of the way. The equally corrupt FDA has been bribed by Big Pharma not to reschedule anything. The one positive is that Big Pharma has few public friends, especially after the opioid crisis that still kills 100s every day. And, both mushrooms and cannabis are readily produced by individuals not inclined to give in to corporate shills.

Afterwards, he was perplexed, and when alone with the preacher, he asked: "I thought you were going to talk about "Thou shalt not steal"?. The preacher replied. "Yes. Yes. I was. But as I was reciting the other commandments, I got to the one about adultery and I remembered where I left my bike!"

The claim of beneficence only lasts until the Christians see you're not buying it. Then the knives come out with equally valid scriptural basis. Luke 19:27 “But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.” “And as for these enemies of mine who didn't want me to be their king—bring them in and execute them right here in front of me.”

They've been tweaking that concept for 40 years and even with the press release, remain miles away from actual break-even. I'm all for science and would love if science and scientists were given all the funding they could use. But, science is budgeted and some projects are much more deserving than others. This announcement is a plea for more money to be spent on a demonstrably unworkable method that will never be commercialized (which should be the goal). Other fusion concepts provide vastly more likely outcomes. This is not the time to be pandering to corruption, even in science.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Says She Could’ve Led a Better Armed Insurrection on Jan. 6

The Jan. 6 Committee has produced evidence that guns WERE in the possession of the militias invading the Capitol building to enact Trump's coup. Again, published reports immediately after Jan 6 documented that people with long guns were intercepted inside the Capitol building. As MTG did help organize the coup, she is bullshitting as usual. https://19thnews.org/2021/02/women-in-congress-capitol-riot/?utm_campaign=19th-social=facebook=social=IwAR1jl8fpp_eWzQlTJ0c5GxkReDahTqkNbHrgheQCakE8v-TW9BYGnBNmR7E "Escobar: I was in the last group to leave the gallery, along with Mikie Sherrill, because Pramila Jayapal was using a cane and we stayed behind to make sure she got out safe. I don’t remember there being a police officer there to escort us out. As we descended the stairs, going from the third floor to the second, I turned and saw men with long guns facedown on the floor and officers surrounding them with drawn guns. The men on the ground were looking right at us. It was just awful..."

Damn, she is in a rush.

A woman recently lost her husband. She had him cremated and brought his ashes home. One day she picked up the urn he was in and poured him out on the coffee table. Then she started talking to him, and tracing her fingers in the ashes, she said, "You know that fur coat you promised me, Irving?" She answered by saying, "I bought it with the insurance money!" She then said, "Irving, remember that new car you promised me?" She answered again saying,"Well, I bought it with the insurance money!" Then she said, "And remember the big beautiful house that sits at the top of the hill that I fell in love with and you said we couldn't afford?" Once more she answered saying, "Well I bought that too with the insurance money and I love living here." Still tracing her finger in the ashes, she said, "Irving, remember that blowjob I promised you? Here it comes..."

And, they sought to use the pandemic by specifically targeting (by withholding aid) minorities and democrat regions. These acts of mass murder should not be seen as being mitigated by promoting disinformation that also murdered thousand of his own partisans. These were the acts of a cynical psychopath intent on wrecking the lives of everyone for his own personal gain.
