To the soldiers: About face. Step down. You know better than I that's your only recourse against the machine. Your power is in what you do and how you choose to organize after you're no longer soldiers.

There was an original Star Trek episode about this. Nothing good comes from aggregating a bunch of thugs, training them and then allowing them to live among the populace. I say deport them all to Liberia (sorry Liberia but you are the only country I can think of right now).

Is this the exact guy who murdered Renee Good? Not sure but don't care. They all deserve to be punished in any way society can muster, if not by law (and it won't be) then by any practical means available.
Put this one, too. The American public has a right to know who these murderers on our payroll are.

I am so with this. I hate the first week of January more than I hate the rest of winter and that’s saying a lot.

In addition to details theft and murder committed by Trump and Putin, it gives me a more clear idea of the overarching consequence: The dividing of the world into three spheres of control by Russia (unless a miracle happens in the EU), China and Amerika.

Rob Reiner was better than Charlie Kirk.
December 15, 2025 at 5:02 PM
Rob Reiner was better than Charlie Kirk.
Reiner is a much more important cultural influence than Charlie Kirk ever was. He was unyielding in his commitment to those with few advantages and against those who exploit them.
He was a much better hero and deserved to die less.
