It's a combination of classic American racism plus Trump shifting the Overton Window for sure

I called in one of my employees to fire him. He changed my mind using just 6 simple words.

Eddy showed up to an important meeting with a big client wasted. He insulted their CEO, ate 12 of the communal pastries and then soiled himself. 

I asked Eddy to tell me why I shouldn't fire him. He said,

"It was my evil twin, Ricardo."

That's all he needed to say. I let Eddy stay on at my company. 

Now, I'm not stupid. I knew Eddy didn't have an evil twin Ricardo because Eddy cheats on his wife and commits tax fraud, so he is evil enough already.

However, I do believe in second chances, and Ricardo is a perfect metaphor for that.

We all deserve an "evil twin Ricardo" once in our lives.

I once saved a mother with an unborn child from a burning building. She was so grateful for my help that she agreed to name her child after me. I said "name her Novatas" which was the name of my first company. She did. 21 years later, the daughter became a very successful travel influencer, with a large following, and got in contact to thank me for saving her life. I sued her for copyright infringement. I had trademarked the name Novatas way back when before her birth and she had been using it for her branding. Legally I was entitled to a lot of her revenue because her mother was silly enough to fall for this trick. You enter the game as soon as you're born and you can't miss a day playing it.

Media Blackout on Leaked U.S. Intelligence Docs Media refuse to publish documents on Israel's preparations for Iran strike, opting to paraphrase them instead β€” and missing key details.

Media aren't publishing the leaked US intelligence documents on Israel and even seem proud of it.
CNN: β€œCNN is not quoting directly from or showing the documents."
ABC: β€œABC News is not quoting directly from or showing the documents."
This isn't healthy:
