quid pro quo

Trump & Pam Bondi = Corruption = Swamp

Trump & Pam Bondi accept “quid pro quo".

Adams will be able to help with administration policies "only if the indictment were dismissed".

Lot more news going to be coming from across the pond I think.

Best place to go for news is away from the place where there's an interest in it. Kind of like the value of Tocqueville's writings.

Was at my son's school for the normal student/teacher meetings.

Feb 14, 2025, 9:26 AM

Looked on the wall in son's 5th grade classroom at the map. It said Gulf of Mexico.

I (semi-jokingly)told the teacher the map should be removed immediately, because she's teaching my son lies. Teacher looked perplexed. Wife kicked me under the table. Teacher chuckled nervously.

For reference (German but a reminder):

AP reporter was kicked out for calling it the Gulf of Mexico, and the Blondie Infobabe reminded the press that lies will not be tolerated by The President. I mean this is some next-level propaganda gaslighting if I've ever read about it in a history book.

This has to be one of the most absurd things ever…is anyone really using the term GOA? I will continue to refer to it as the GOM. If I still had school-aged kids and they were instructed to use GOA…that might jus the a hill I would die on.

Her response is frightening, if you read enough history books.

Feb 14, 2025, 10:10 AM

Got to watch the whole video. Think it's about 35-40 seconds in before she goes into full Goebbels/gaslight mode.

I agree it's silly but propaganda enterprises like the AP shouldn't have access to any of these briefings anyway. #### them.

Anything to the left of Newsmax might as well be Pravda.

Careful. I asked him the other day to provide news sources

Feb 14, 2025, 11:32 AM [ in reply to Why? Pray tell. ]

that he considered "trustworthy," and he about had a coronary. It was a simple question, but you would've thought someone sacrificed a child in front of him with the way he reacted.

I don't know that he ever did say what news sources he relies on. But he can certainly tell you why the most generally respected news sources aren't valid.

You are right. This is horrible.

I should have voted for Kamala Harris.

Now that surprises me. I am usually a very good judge if character and I would have thought that you would have definitely voted for a minority woman.
