New from me: For the last 6 months I've been quietly interviewing the creators of Truth and Freedom Stories aka Feucht's ex staff. Please *enjoy* 11,000k on what I learnt and how Feucht's ministries were built on free labor from those who once believed in his vision and now want accountability.
Russia plans to illegally annex lands it invaded, even as its military falters. Israel Plans to Control Large Parts of Southern Lebanon, Defense Minister Says
The difference between these two is racism
If I knew viewing Guernica would put money directly into the pockets of a still living Pablo Picasso, who had announced publicly that he would be using that money to terrorize, harm, and kill women, not only would I not go view Guernica, it would fundamentally change the meaning of Guernica as art.
Important update
The Syrians who rose up in 2011 were some of the bravest people I think in modern history; unimaginable to me the courage it would take to do this, knowing what the personal consequences could be
LA City Council’s City President Marqueece Harris-Dawson says he has been pulled over four times while a member of the council; the most recent was this week. He missed a committee meeting because of the stop, according to him.
Among the questions: “how do you have this vehicle,” according to him.
This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.
This is gross as fuck man. It's not funny
Ok so you agree it *is* possible to believe that the Founding Fathers didn't exist
It is possible to believe. I'm believing it right now
He absolutely does think that though
kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it
We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.
From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.
I think it's unlikely that all of my many dozens of history teachers were wrong
I've taken many history classes and what I've learned is they didn't do anything, if they were real at all
Nobody else is brave enough so I'll say it: the Founding Fathers did literally nothing
Oh I understand perfectly well why he did those podcasts, it's because he's friends with those people and he agrees with them, like he said in the podcasts
I'm in California and I'm here to say that Gavin Newsom, personal friend of Steve Bannon, sucks really bad.
He very well may have been lipsyncing, I don't know and don't particularly care. But you're trying to dunk on somebody who understands what lipsyncing means and you would not be doing that if you understood what lipsyncing means
I'm not making an argument about the factual truth of Kid Rock's claims, I'm saying that as a threshold matter you do not understand what lipsyncing is
Video and audio are always recorded separately. When music is recorded live and simultaneously filmed, there is a chance of technical error when rebroadcasting it that will cause the video and audio to play back at different times. That is not lipsyncing, lipsyncing is a different thing
If the audio that you are hearing while you are watching the video is the audio that was recorded while the video is being recorded, it is not lipsyncing. Just because it is not live does not mean it was lipsynced. The person you are quote-tweeting here is correct
NEW from DSM: Last night, DHS flashbanged, shot less-lethals, and tear-gassed attendees at a candlelight vigil for #AlexPretti in #EugeneOR following a day of several protesters being detained.
