every single day incredible points are made here & elsewhere by ordinary people that absolutely eviscerate the arguments of those in power, & these same obvious points are never put to those in power by the army of journalists who nevertheless act like they are some kind of noble check on that power

He didn't send the National Guard because he was the one who incited that insurrection.
He is happily sending in the National Guard now to sow division, create chaos, and declare martial law...
He is the enemy from within and he cares not for America or her states or her people or the Constitution!

Something worth noting is how the press is leaning into the framing that what’s happening in LA is a both sides issue or that they are riots. Even when the LAPD is saying it’s under control, suddenly for the first time in their lives the press is willing to ignore them

β€œOne more question, sir. You wrote a book about the former president's cognitive issues, but the current president posted that the former president was executed in 2020 and replaced by a mindless, soulless robot with cancer. What am I missing here?”
