There's a LOT of truth here, TFG and his team of corrupt lawyers and corrupt judicial appointments (Roberts, Loose Cannon, 5th circuit...etc) successfully gamed the legal system to delay judicial action which, in a functioning government, would have put TFG and his miscreants in prison long ago.
South Korea was prepared to deal with their dictator because they have better laws, which we will fail to fix here if we keep blaming Garland instead of the system he was bound by. Jack Smith is trying to tell us. We should listen. www.muellershewrote.com/p/between-th...
Between the Lines of Jack Smith's Final Report
The Jack smith report does more than outline Trump's crimes; it lays bare the delays inherent in the system - and if we don’t address them - no AG will be able to hold future despots accountable.

Energy is energy. Capture it however you can.
Sand batteries are literally just silos of sand that retain heat exceptionally well -- so well that they can be tied to heat exchange systems to serve as proxy *electrical* batteries. Finland's new model can store enough power (100 MWh) to heat an entire town for a week.

Man, this goes without saying.
I will never get over how a handful of tech bros set billions of dollars on fire to build a plagiarism machine that doesn't work and will destroy human society when they could have used a fraction of that money to fund a new golden age of creativity and knowledge.

Have any of these politicians trying to get access to ICE facilities actually sued to get access? i think the courts would absolutely allow it.

Also, only cowards hide their faces, ICE.

If Donald Trump is found to have sexually abused young girls, would it be politically disqualifying? This youth pastor says no.

Do you know who would know what is in the Epstein files? The lawyer who prosecuted the case.

The absence of hope is the foundation of despair.

Cling to hope, even when hope is dashed to pieces. Find it wherever you can. Imagine it. Then re-imagine it.
Good morning 🥰🥰🥰

The Shawshank Redemption talks about hope. How it can torture. How it can save. How it can keep you going.

I also know what it feels to be hopeless. But somehow I kept going. Something kept me alive.

Never give up hope.

WE. Are. Worth. It. 💯*💯%

Let's unpack the dogshit that Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson unpacked.

First, nowhere in their first BIG SCOOP do they consider that one of America's most consequential presidents used a wheelchair -- and hid that fact -- for 12 years of the presidency.

Then remember this book sells MENTAL decline.
