One man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter. And I'll absolutely defend drug smugglers, you don't get to just kill whoever you want. The US is acting completely lawlessly just killing whomever because might makes right. We don't even execute drug smugglers in our country. They're providing a commodity people want. If people didn't want it they wouldn't sell it. Blowing up random boats trafficking commodities is insane mercantilist empire crap. Nobody wants to return to the world of privateers.
I'd like to duck tape you to the next boat that tries, and fails, to make that run.

What a horrific 72 hours for democrats. And it’s only going to get worse as America gets stronger.

“So let me get this straight. In the Epstein files, we see:

-Bill Clinton, Democrat former President of the United States

-Hillary Clinton, who campaigned against Trump in 2016 KNOWING that her own husband was a child sex predator

-Richard Branson, who publicly endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Kamala Harris in 2024

-Kevin Spacey, who’s a life-long Democrat and avid supporter of Barack Obama and Joe Biden

-Diana Ross, who, in 2016, received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Barack Obama

-Michael Jackson, who performed at numerous DNC fundraisers in the 1990’s and early 2000’s

-Mick Jagger, who has spent the last 10 years publicly criticizing Trump, and who publicly endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 election

Not a good day for the Democrats.”
Don't forget Chris Tucker.

I thought this was great and an interesting take (plus his brother was an alcoholic who died of it). And as stated below his own chief of staff Susan Wiles made the observation:





“Trump has an alcoholic’s personality” is a perceptive statement and not at all an insult. If you look at the phenotype that performs better than anyone else in extreme situations…hunters, warriors, fighter pilots, EMTs, etc…they have the variant of the COMT gene that drives rapid clearance of excess dopamine in the prefrontal cortex. These people perform better and are calmer under pressure. But because their brains are eating dopamine 4x faster than a normal person, they are prone to boredom when the pressure is off.

"In a classroom, a kid with this gene looks like they have an attention deficit because they are bored. In a crisis, they turn into a high performance machine. It’s why I’ve long argued that ADHD isn’t a disease or disorder, but an important personality type without which you can’t have a society.

This gene is a root cause for a lot of alcoholics because alcohol consumption initially spikes dopamine, but because the dopamine is rapidly cleared they drink more and more to chase that feeling.

You see how bored Trump gets in normal mundane situations, and how lively he becomes in high stakes situations — this is why his best media appearances are always with journalists who are out to get him, or why he jumped up after getting shot to pump his fist in the air. There is an incredible amount of alpha in being a teetotaler with the wiring of an alcoholic."

I get what she's saying, especially with comt, sleep, etc but.....i definitely would've chosen a different way of expressing it. Especially considering his brother's alcoholism, death, and impact on the Don.

Just incredibly cringe choice of words.

Shocking. A politician playing politics and trying to force the Republicans to provide help to American families to reduce healthcare premiums by extending subsidies. At least be honest about why he did it instead of stupidly saying "Bernie hates kids with cancer".

Meanwhile, Trump is destroying the US economy one job at a time with his dumbazz tariffs...

Midseason Tweak who is actually drunk Jameslee32 has a homeless man’s drunk personality. Midseason Tweak aka drunk Jameslee32 is unable to discern any true information because he stays drunk

Did you read the article? How exactly what they are doing is Trumps fault?

Her father Pat Summerall the announcer was such a bad alcoholic he had to have a liver transplant...so it's a subject she is very familiar with. I think it was a good explanation why we see the Trump flaws when he is bored, and the best president of our lifetime when he is in a battle. I just really thought that was a good line: "There is an incredible amount of alpha in being a teetotaler with the wiring of an alcoholic."

There have been some incredible people that have had a drinking problem, but as @Classy_Bowls points out...there are also deadbeat drunks who are so stupid they can't tie their own shoes like jameslee haha

Ai is inevitable and necessary to make sure china doesn't further the gap. However there absolutely must be guardrails in place to prevent mass unemployment. Otherwise, we are going to let these tech bros usher in socialism or worse while they amass fortunes greater than nations could ever dream.
China won't & doesn't have AI guardrails. Us having them will tie our hands/hold us back.

We know the lefties will never admit/acknowledge the massive 2020 fraud - even with the “new” revelations (not really new, just confirmed once again).

But, I do wonder what my old buddy VhnetCat has to say about it since he was in lock step with the liberals that there “just wasn’t any evidence and all the courts threw out the cases”…..
I believe the GA problems recently released. Doesn't translate to the entire election for me. Trump still would have lost. But that GA would have given Pubs Senate control is BFD.
