The more we say to young people "everything that needs to be known is already available to you via this convenient chatbot" the more we signal to them that their brains are vestigial...no need to work on your reading, thinking, or writing skills, machines can do that better. Go scroll.

So yeah “separation of powers” is way different from “separate but equal”. One is a theory of governance. The other is government mandated racism.

I’m not a trader, so there’s much in the stock market that I don’t understand.
Somehow though, I think this Friday uptick in both price and volume of Chevron stock must mean something.

This is a disgrace.
It should at a minimum be *every single Democrat* and *at least* one or two Republicans.

The “Venezuela distracts from Epstein” line is ridiculous because 1) many awful things happen at once 2) Same Iran-Contra crowd pushing Venezuela invasion are or were involved with Epstein/Maxwell 3) Epstein associates (for ex, Dershowitz) want Iran invasion and see Venezuela as a test run for Iran

Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"

Elliott Abrams specifically wants this, as does his network. It didn’t begin in Trump term two. Began with Iran-Contra and continued through multiple admins, including Bush and also Biden, who installed Abrams as an advisor in 2023. Same horrible people with same horrible plans for a half century.
Who specifically wants this? And why? It feels like more than just oil. I am not saying the reason is good or even rooted in reality, I just want know what it is. Is it just that some people have wanted this for a long time like they do with Iran?
