I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

Sure, but. Ask anyone in Minneapolis RN about which is paying out more dividends;
The Democratic party, or all of our extra political apparatuses.

To which the solution is, deprogramming the so called powerless into the understanding that their power exists and it is real, while the powerful have a fictitious version that is paradoxically upheld by our blinders that delude us into believing we are powerless.
Any nation or empire that achieves dominance capability will suffer that outcome.

The real trick is you can't tell them you want extra protein until after they've already portioned the normal protein.
If you open with extra protein, that normal serving shrinks more than the labor market this morning.

Harry Enten is great. He's got a good schtick. He's a good communicator. When his bits pop up in clip shows, I'm actually excited. He's basically 2020's Steve Kornacki. Data nerd plus personality.
The question how will CNN eventually fuck this up?

Capitol Hunters confirms Platner lied about why he could not get back into the Marines in 2009. It was because of his Nazi/antisemitic tattoo. He blamed Marine policy barring sleeve tattoos, but Marine policy grandfathered sleeve tattoos. It barred symbols of hate, which is what the Totenkopf is.
