How stupid is Russia's justification for losing the Ukrainian war?
Throughout history, Russia has been led by generals who graduated from some of the world's most prestigious military institutions. Thankfully for Ukraine, Russia's present military chiefs only attended Clown College. This is the most illogical argument why Russia is gradually losing the fight in Ukraine. 💤😵🥴💤

Graduation Day from Electoral College
» KEY POINTS Issues with the Electoral College started to come to a head all the way back in 1796, the 3rd Presidential election and the first after George Washington. The Electoral College was created as a compromise to get more States to sign off on the Constitution and not because it is particularly beneficial or fair. It is very straightforward: all people of the United States — whether they live in the States or Territories — should vote for the President and Vice President directly.

The Parasite Tries To Replace The Host
“So I would propose: why don’t you move VOCES onto another campus?” - Daniel M. Epstein The hostility that the North Valley Military Institute (NVMI) community shows towards the public school that it shares a campus with was on full display at the LAUSD Board Meeting on January 17, 2023. The charter school’s Treasurer, Daniel M. Epstein, called into the meeting to criticize the Valley Oaks Center For Enriched Studies (VOCES) for being too “woke,” and operating a program that is not being chosen by parents. Epstein did not address accusations from the VOCES Magnet community that the presence of NVMI on the campus is causing some parents to avoid choosing to send their children to this public school.

What is the President's Job?
» KEY POINTS Almost all of the promises Presidential candidates make cannot be kept because what they say they will do is the job of Congress. The Legislative Branch has illegally and un-Constitutionally ceded power to the Executive Branch. Each Branch of the Federal Government needs the proper barriers and checks enshrined in the Constitution.

The New Cold War: How the Internet is Fueling a Global Ideological Divide
The term "cold war" was first used to describe the political and military tension between the United States and the Soviet Union during the latter half of the 20th century. The two superpowers never engaged in direct military conflict, but they did engage in a prolonged struggle for global influence and ideological dominance. Today, a new cold war is emerging, one that is being fought not just between nation-states, but also within the virtual realm of the internet.

Why is China eliminating its technology organizations, and how is this a great plan?
Consider what would happen if a country suddenly eliminated its IT industry. Most of the time, this would result in economic collapse and societal turmoil. China, however, is doing precisely that as read through this narrative. The most bizarre aspect is that the Chinese government's dramatic steps to undermine their own IT industry may possibly rescue the country in the future. 😤🤐😎

Sorry, we're going to have to cut your hours
» KEY POINTS Having a part-time legislature is very common in the United States and is what the founders envisioned for Congress. Limiting the days, hours per day, and times that Congress can meet will force our representatives to be efficient. Part-time legislatures have exponentially less costs than full-time ones because the latter feel they must always justify their existence.
