How to hire only the "best people"...twice.

Wow. Maybe time to cover my short.

Half the country doesn't even vote, but you think we are on the edge of a hot civil war. As the kids say, might be time for you to go outside and touch some grass.

When a black 6'3 260lb SEVENTEEN year old can viciously beat a 60 year old white teacher within inches of her life....with no prosecution? And this is normalized under progressive social Justice reform....we have enormous problems.

BTW, where you been for the last THREE DECADES? Kids don't go outside and have no relationship with grass that is not SMOKEABLE.

Usual lie from you. The kid pleaded guilty and is being sentenced this month. Hopefully he gets the 30 years.

Usual lie? Usual? From me? What the hell are you talking about?

Obviously he is guilty. Being sentenced? He will be under the soft umbrella of social justice.

Correction.....properly prosecuted. If he gets ANY jail time....let alone the 30, I will take one off the "we are fucked" chart.

Try reading past your freaking nose, shill.

"The SEC said its review of the firm’s audits found “deliberate and systemic failures” in more than 1,500 filings from January 2021 through June 2023. That period was before Trump Media & Technology Group went public, suggesting that its filings were not among those investigated as part of the review."

In order to go public, you provide a 2-3 prior years worth of audited financials that adhere to GAAP. 21-23 would definitely fall in that range, and before you slam me for not liking Trump I worked at PwC and have been on 3 public offerings.

Let me fix your post, my narrative was proven false and I hope this gaslighting makes you feel bad.

The campus protests are ridiculous and I wonder how many of them are even being initiated and driven by actual students. Students are getting caught up in them, but were they really the genesis of them?

If they really wanted to support the Palestinian people, then they should be against Hamas and not Israel. Hamas is not part of the PLO and they’re wreaking havoc on many in Palestine who probably want them gone. Am I wrong?

But, I’m pretty sure it’s not so much about showing support for Palestine. It’s about wannabe warriors looking for a fight because they like being seen and feeling strong.

Well aware of this, thanks. The headline on the article posted is DELIBERATELY misleading. It wants people to scream "OHHOHOH LOOKY HERE ORANGEMANBAD DID SOMETHING BAD" when in reality the records under question are in no way associated with Trump. It's yellow journalism at it's finest. I hope these shills get what is coming to them for the years of this insane bullshit.

1) Yes, there's definitely some evidence of outside agitators involved in these college protests. How much??? Hell, there is a report of a UCLA prof forcing his students to attend the protest.


2) According to this poll:

"44% in the West Bank said they supported Hamas, up from just 12% in September. In Gaza, the militants enjoyed 42% support, up slightly from 38% three months ago."

"57% of respondents in Gaza and 82% in the West Bank believe Hamas was correct in launching the October attack"

Though you could make the argument they've been heavily propagandized: "A large majority believed Hamas’ claims that it acted to defend a major Islamic shrine in Jerusalem against Jewish extremists and win the release of Palestinian prisoners. Only 10% said they believed Hamas has committed war crimes, with a large majority saying they did not see videos showing the militants committing atrocities."

Perhaps the truth is making its way into the populace. A more recent poll: "Support for Hamas as a political party has fallen to 34% among Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, a 12-point drop from December 2023, according to a poll released Wednesday by a leading Palestinian research institute." https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/g...ion-rcna144183
