We are temporary points of light in a Cosmos we know nothing about.

Billionaires should be taxed out of existence.

If you can move the market from a bird's eye perspective, then you have too much money.

The ability to move the market is a superpower that should only belong to the people.
We're in

A temporary alternative government using the same

federal>state>county

power structure.

We, as residents of specific states, will have the option of sending our hard earned cash to the temporary revenue department of our temporary regional government.

Something like that.

To my beautiful moderates, let me be sure I understand what you're saying.

People like Schumer want us to keep doing the same and expecting different results.

I guess they're expecting the right to be looking at the same things he's looking at, as if the truth will eventually market itself?

Like the regional government would take the place of the current federal government, with all regional governments operating on the same mobile government software.

It sounds like something out of science fiction, I know. But that would be the path of least resistance.

We really need to stop stating what the problem. We all know what the problem is.

What are we going to DO about the problem besides waiting for the next election (if we have one)?

Ephebophilia is an attraction to people 15 to 19 years old.

That range includes the ages of 18 and 19.

Therefore, it would be fair to say that there are elements of ephebophilia in mainstream American porn.

A national reckoning?

Also, the human brain doesn't stop growing until the age of 25?

The Trump White House overt overtures to Lauren Boebert seems to have backfired as multiple Republicans switch to Yes on discharge petition to force vote on the release of the Epstein files.

Nearly a month before Trump met Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Helsinki in 2018, Jeffrey Epstein attempted to pass a message to Russia’s top diplomat: If you want to understand Trump, talk to me.

“I think you might suggest to putin that lavrov can get insight on talking to me,” Epstein wrote.
In other emails, Epstein described his relationships with foreign leaders, advised Steve Bannon on how to increase his influence in Europe and offered his (mostly, but not entirely, dim) assesment of Trump to those who asked. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Three victims of sexual trafficking by Epstein and Maxwell have died from suicide or drug overdoses:

Virginia Giuffre (2025)
Carolyn Andriano (2023)
Leigh Skye Patrick (2017)

Those are just the ones we know of and who came forward. One cannot help but wonder how many more did not survive.

Newest Rep. Adelita Grijalva: “Basic freedoms are under attack…. What is most concerning is not what this administration has done, but what this body has not done—hold Trump accountable as a co-equal branch of government that we are!”

Grijalva: It has been 50 days since the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district elected me to represent them. 50 days that over 800,000 arizonans have been left without access to the basic services that every constituent deserves.

It’s happening folks! However a full vote won’t happen until early December bc according to House rules, the house has to be in session for 7 legislative days.
BREAKING: Democrats Reach 218 Signatures and Will Force Epstein Files Vote
Adelita Grijalva has been sworn in and has signed the discharge petition. A full vote of the House to release the Epstein files is coming, and Mike Johnson cannot stop it.

There was always something inexplicably strange about the recent government shutdown. From the beginning, it was crystal clear what Democrats wanted: lower health care costs, affordability and for a lawless president to start obeying the law.

But what about the Republicans?
It Was the Epstein Shutdown All Along
