9/11 we will never forget, only some of us have. What do we have now trying to take over congress but the likes of Ilhan Omar and her friends in the squad. How can anyone on the ground condemn those choosing to end their suffering quicker by jumping our the windows. I understand many believe suicide in any way is a sin, but wonder what they would choose if placed in the situation of burning to death or ending it quickly.

I would like to see the story about the Special Counsel Team's wiping of cell phones handled differently. Like, potentially by another Special Counsel.

I guess it's possible that they were following an established procedure for turning in a work phone. That should be declared front and center, if it's the case.

But if this was the deliberate destruction of evidence that is protected for posterity by archival procedures within the DOJ, then that is a case for Obstruction of Justice. Which is it? Definitions, please, not diatribes.

What this is not, is accidental. Entering the wrong password 10 times might be perceived as accidental...... But with an iPhone, I am reading that it takes over 3 hours to get to the stage where data self-destructs; there are enforced time-outs that kick in, each sequentially longer between mis-entries, and multiple warnings.

For it to happen to 30 phones, across the team noted for its malice and unwavering Trump-hate: No accident. But before we jump to the conclusion that it was nefarious - an easy assumption where Andrew Weismann (*spits*) is involved - shouldn't we know first whether it was sanctioned or not, and why?

Leftoxenomorphs are never “wrong” in the sense that a bullet is never wrong.

Everything a leftoxenomorph says or does is a weapon.

The validity of their BS is irrelevant for them.

For a rational human being truth is a sign associated with a notion that tells you if the notion corresponds to reality or not.

“Pigs fly”: sign = false.

“A dead leftoxenomorph is a good leftoxenomorph”: sign = truth.

That’s how it works.

But not for leftoxenomorphs because for a leftoxenomorph reality doesn’t really exist.

Everything is a social construct.

They sustain that there is no such a thing as “reality” or “truth” and they are not shy about it.

“Truth” for leftoxenomorphs is “white supremacy” and “patriarchy”

And “reality” is whatever they say it is.

Leftoxenomorphs are not normal humans and their language is not human language and what they do is not normal human behavior.

Leftoxenomorphs are humanoids that have abandoned humanity and now have two alternatives for humans: (a) become a leftoxenomorph, just like them or (b) be murdered.

“Climate change” is just a weapon in the leftoxenomorph arsenal.

Many are fooled by it and THAT was the leftoxenomorphs objective, all along.

The truth value of the “climate change” con is irrelevant to a leftoxenomorph.

Truth is a human tool and it is not included in the leftoxenomorph toolbox.

People need to start seeing leftoxenomorphs for what they are and understand leftoxenomorph behavior.

I'm with Aggie on this; it's BO-O-O-O-O-O-O-GUS.

American Academia: No Diversity of Opinion Will Be Tolerated!: I guess we'll just have to shoot them. (Getting their attention, doncha know.)

Eighth Circuit Joins Other Courts of Appeals in Holding that Allegations of Substantive Error in University Sexual Assault Proceedings Plausibly Support Title IX Claim for Discrimination on the Basis of Sex: OOOOOO-RAH!!

Racial Deceptions Week in Higher Education: At my age, I can't act Black.

The West Coast burns, and leftists blame climate change, but they’re wrong: It's the stupidity, stupid!

CNN's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week: Couldna happened to nicer guys, and CNN doesn't DO "nice".

Despite Pandemic, The U.S. Army Is In Its Best Shape In A Generation. Here’s Why: That Damned TRUMP is getting the Army straightened out. How DARE he!

I assume those who jumped from the burning towers were literally driven out the window by the intense pain of the heat- they had no choice

Cuomo Suggests Taxes to Close COVID New York Budget Gap

This article was fun to read, because it's such an obvious piece of propaganda. The government employees in New York are sacrosanct. You can't fire even one of them. Any kind of tax or budget reduction would be a disaster! (They say.) So shut-up and pay the union, or they'll have to get rough.

"Cuomo Suggests Taxes to Close COVID New York Budget Gap". There's no such thing as a "budget gap". New York can only spend the money which it has.

“This will be a hole in the financial plan so large that it will be impossible to fill." Financial plans are subject to change. If New York can't afford to pay union pensions, then hat's life.

“What would we do to try to fill it? Taxes, cuts, borrowing, early retirements (of government workers). All of the above.” There are three other options: Fire some employees; Reduce pension payments, or Lower salaries.

"Gov. Cuomo: Trump Will Need an 'Army' to Protect Him in NYC" If the union doesn't get paid, blood will run in the streets.

Those who left the burning towers by way of windows were not suicides by any definition. They were murdered. God rest and bless their souls.
