The cell phones recording in the front don't even show AOC or the crowd behind her. It looks like they are recording an empty auditorium.

Abuse is abuse. Drug or physical, it's harmful to anyone. If your mother got out of control, would you dad beat her too? If the answer is 'no', then one has to wonder why? Is a child of lesser value than a grown adult? Why is it okay that children have less protections than adults? Is a child not more vulnerable? And unlike an adult, a child has no choice on who they live with. If your child is the most important thing in your life, then why is it acceptable to treat them worse than anyone else?

Many think that corporal punishment is the proper way to teach a child right from wrong, in fact this is a fallacy. Children who are spanked, on average have 5 IQ points lower than those who are not. I'm not saying to omit discipline or repercussions for your child as a parent, but using violence on them should not be lauded.

Yes, most of Gagarin's flight was automated, but he could and did take manual control at one point. He was a 1st class military pilot with cosmonaut training. During Gagarin's reentry phase, the equipment module failed to fully separate, causing the spacecraft to spin. His ability to maintain consciousness and stabilize the descent, despite experiencing 8 Gs of force, was attributed to his experience as a fighter pilot. 2 of the 5 women "astronauts" on the Blue Origin spaceflight are actual scientists and although the definition of astronaut is somewhat ambiguous, I would not classify Jeff Bezo's fiancé, a pop singer, and a TV co-host as astronauts. They have no space flight training and could be of no use or help in any aspect of the flight. I think they would be better classified as "Spaceflight Participants".

Depends on how they were raised. If you don't teach your child to look at things objectively and to question everything from any authority figure, then they'll likely believe the propaganda that is pumped into them 8 hrs a day, 5 days a week at public school. The youth's inability to critically reason for themselves is a symptom of a larger problem that began when the government took over the education system while our society compelled mothers to enter the workforce and hand their children off to be raised by the state.

If you read Elon's post, he isn't outright accusing Schumer of defrauding the government, he is expressing his opinion that that may be the case. "I think" is not the same as "you are". Having an opinion is protected speech. However, if it went to trial, I am sure Elon has the receipts to make his case, which would be very bad for Chuckie.

If you are having trouble, try to convince her to at least wait until the child is school aged to get vaccines. This buys you more time to try to convince her to do away with them altogether, but if that fails, at least the blood brain barrier will be better established and the child will have less chance of developing neurological disorders. You guys should watch the RFK Jr Joe Rogan interview on youtube some night. It's a few hours long, but worth it.

Hey what's wrong with flip phones?! I love my dumb phone! It calls, sends messages through T9 texting, and tells me the time! I still have a computer and access to the internet, but I don't need or want that with me 24/7. Simplicity can be a good thing.

I listened to it, while LBJ seems "creepy" by today's standards, that's how a lot of men spoke to women back then. Interesting how Jackie mentions a "vitamin B shot" which was really pharmaceutical grade meth?

One poster named Zorknoft replied on X,

The reality is, You can’t have both. if the evidence is incriminating and released it muddies the jury pool and those arrested will walk.

This is a plausible explanation as to why they are waiting to release everything.

That's what I thought at first too, but then I watched the link Patriot454 posted and it clearly came from elsewhere. It happened twice during his speech.

Interesting...Last Thursday a bill was introduced to rename Washington Dulles Airport in northern Virginia after President Donald Trump. If it passes, he would be the first and only president to have an airport named after him while still in office.

In So-cal, "green" wood will burn because the fires often get very intense. I know from first hand experience in the 2007 wildfires. My home was burned, the jewelry in the bedroom melted, our truck's scorched frame was the only part that remained of it, and yes trees, scrub oaks mostly for the area, charred up and never came back.

But our shed, 200ft from our house survived with all of our junk in tact. I know the Santa Ana winds cause fires to quickly blow through an area. Sometimes patches of area are left unburned.

And the other 22% are probably from the offspring of migrants who were born in Germany over the last 30+ years.

That reminds me of our town's fire department. They blocked off our dirt road and let everyone in the area's houses burn, while the nearby Indian reservation's fire crew actually tried their damndest to help us and managed to save a few of our neighbor's homes. That was in 2007.

Exactly. He's trying to save what's left of western civilization.
