Very meta...
Day 311

The FDA are claiming, without evidence, that the Covid vaccine killed 10 children.

In a country where certain diseases considered extinct because of vaccines are now making a comeback because of idiots like RFJ Jr.

Children dying from easily prevented disease.

You are all caught up.

Billie Eilish asked an important question: "If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?"

There are FIVE ways to accumulate a billion dollars:

1) Profiting from a monopoly
2) Insider-trading
3) Political payoffs
4) Fraud
5) Inheritance

Billionaires are the result of a failed system.

I mean, yes, there is a difference between an 8 year old and a 15 year old but they are both still CHILDREN.

How mad are MAGA going to be when the wave of realisation accelerates and hits them about how badly they have been misled?

Deliberate, strategic, long term, psychologically developed disinformation.

Pretty mad I'd reckon

💯% agree
Every business, government agency, media outlet and human person that continues to post on or go near X is consciously collaborating with the most openly white supremacist public figure since Hitler. There is no excuse.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
