am i wrong that the path he laid is the one Marjorie Taylor Greene is now dallying upon?

finally a “smart” something worthy of the name.

when transportation is fully electrified, there will always be hungry batteries i think.

if this is for real, it could be a genuinely huge deal.

we're for meritocracy, except half the population shouldn't be permitted to compete.

i think distinctions within the group that once identified as jewish have grown very stark, between tendencies one might identify as diasporist on the one hand and nationalist on the other. i think it's quite the fissure at this point, wider in the US than all prior divisions.

after we bring them into receivership, sure.
