My friend from Switzerland and England shared me their fears of rapid growth of altercations in their countries.
Then, this came out of the news.
It's still being assessed as to what is going on.
One of my poster from forum contributed the video but I don't know how to post the link.
Hmmm...? I wonder why not?
Especially when the topic is in reference to something relevant to a particular individual? In my opinion, that tells me that the OP likes to be in control and his/her post is the only one that matters and prefers not to interact. Of course, that is the OP's perrogotive and I respect that.
I would like to say that I do live by my belief in Karma and I can only TRY to be the best person I can be on a daily basis. This doesn't mean that I lose my right to my opinion. I don't believe that having an opinion, that another doesn't agree with, means that I'm a bad person or that I'm causing harm by stating my opinion. When someone doesn't agree with another's comment, we are all allowed freedom of speech, so why not disagree with that comment? We can, after all, agree to disagree, right? So my point is, that quietly insinuating hypocrity based on one's opinion, is not an act of violence nor should that be considered harmful or hateful or inhuman. I can't see why this would be considered something that would cause bad karma or how a simple comment is determined to be "bad karma" and why not have a mature dialogue if there were questions/comments and welcome communication?
I don't get it...
According to the New York Times, the proof that the Obama administration spied on an opposition candidate for President of the United States is now in hand.
Either the Obama CIA or FBI (it’s not clear which yet) sent an undercover agent, a sexy young woman, to infiltrate the Trump campaign by faking a chance meeting with George Papadopoulos – a low level campaign advisor – in a bar in London and attempting to seduce him to get information about the campaign.
So Attorney General Barr was EXACTLY RIGHT. And even more importantly, PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS EXACTLY RIGHT, when he said more than two years ago that the Democrats were spying on him and the Democrats and Obama administration called him crazy. And Donald Trump Jr. was EXACTLY RIGHT when he claimed that the Democrats were spying on him and the campaign and the Democrats laughed and tried to trash him.
We'll see who's going to be laughing now.
The Obama administration was USING THE POWER OF THE GOVERNMENT TO SPY ON AN OPPOSITION CANDIDATE DURING A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION CAMPAIGN. This is UNPRECEDENTED in all of US history.
These are POLICE STATE tactics that EVERY AMERICAN should CONDEMN.And what about Obama himself? Do you think this was going on without his knowledge? Do you think that he was the only one in his administration who didn’t know what was happening?
Thank God for President Trump and Attorney General William Barr. They are never going to give up until all the treasonous cops and politicians in the Obama administration are brought to justice for their crimes.
THIS WILL NOT STAND!

Those who doubt the efficacy of shutdowns and mandated social distancing in slowing the spread of Covid-19 may want to look at the grim lesson learned by Sweden. Or more specifically, by its elderly, a large number of whom critics say died needlessly thanks in part to the government’s approach to the pandemic. Gyms, schools, restaurants and shops have stayed open throughout the country, which has been good for the economy but bad for longevity: Sweden’s death rate is about 32 per 100,000, compared with 24 in the U.S., the global epicenter, and roughly 9 in Denmark, which took a much stricter approach.
Dr. Anthony Fauci repeatedly contradicted his boss, President Donald Trump, in warning against many more unnecessary deaths on top of the 81,000 Americans already lost to the pandemic (though he conceded the true number is likely higher). While Trump has said more American dead is a price he is willing to pay for “ reopening” the economy, his adviser was decidedly less fatalistic in virtual testimony before the Senate Tuesday. Fauci cautioned against loosening restrictions in states where infection rates are still high, especially in a nation that remains woefully unprepared for the necessary testing and tracing. He also dressed down Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky when the Republican insisted kids return to school in the fall. Fauci pointed to a new, deadly syndrome affecting children that may be tied to Covid-19.

Who exactly controls main stream media?
Let's take Geert Wilders as an example.
23/11/23
Anti-Islam populist Geert Wilders won a huge victory in Dutch elections, according to a near complete count of the vote early Thursday, in a stunning lurch to the far right for a nation once famed as a beacon of tolerance.
The result will send shockwaves through Europe, where far-right ideology is on the rise, and puts Wilders in line to lead talks to form the next governing coalition and possibly become the first far-right prime minister of the Netherlands.

Reading this one clearly can sense that msm definitely does not like this man. In other articles he is said to be 'Europe's Trump'
And if one msm 'bad mouths' the man, be sure that all the other media giants will follow suite, not with the exact wording but very similar.
As far as I can make out its mainly conservative institutions and individuals that are attacked.
Does this norm perhaps indicate to us who is controlling msm?
Ultra left?
Mark was given 63 months of prison for his actions in the January 6th insurrection on the Capitol. He's tied with Robert Scott Palmer who pleaded guilty to taking part in the siege.
What did they both have in common? Believing the election was stolen.

Palmer's article with comments:
Smile Mark, you're on candid camera.
I've seen some videos of people who actually believe the event never took place!
Former Obama administration Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday on CNN’s “OutFront” that Americans who have not received a coronavirus vaccine should not be allowed to work or have access to children and be limited on where they are allowed to go.
Sebelius said, “We’re in a situation where we have a wildly effective vaccine, multiple choices, lots available, free of charge, and we have folks who are just saying I won’t do it. I think that it’s time to say to those folks, it’s fine if you don’t choose to get vaccinated. You may not come to work. You may not have access to a situation where you’re going to put my grandchildren in jeopardy. Where you might kill them, or you might put them in a situation where they’re going to carry the virus to someone in a high-risk position.”
She continued, “That’s, I think the point where we are, is freedom is one thing, but freedom when you harm others like secondhand smoke and issues that we’ve dealt with very clearly in the past you can’t drive drunk. You can drink, but you can’t drive drunk because you can injure other people. You can’t smoke inside of a public place where you can give cancer to someone else in spite of their never having been a smoker.”
Apparently, Trump is running the government like one of his businesses.
Thus, driving it towards bankruptcy.

Under Trump's Watch, America's National Debt Has Increased by $6.6 Trillion
By Jocelyn Grzeszczak

Amid partisan arguments over how much federal aid should be approved to help ease the financial crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the U.S. national debt has increased by $6.6 trillion under President Donald Trump.
When Trump took office in January 2017, the debt was at $19.9 trillion. As of July 27, according to the most recently available data, that number has grown to $26.5 trillion, Treasury Direct, a division of the Treasury Department, said.
The swelling debt is at odds with promises Trump made before he was elected president. Trump told Washington Post reporters during an April 2016 interview that he would eliminate the nation's debt, which was over $19 trillion, "over a period of eight years."
Trump added that he would cut taxes, "renegotiate trade deals and renegotiate military deals" in his first 100 days in office.
But estimates say the Trump administration will spend $936 billion on its defense budget for the 2020 fiscal year—nearly $100 billion more than the record-breaking defense budget in 2012. And Trump did cut taxes in December 2017 in hopes that the government would recoup its revenue losses in the long term by boosting economic growth, but evidence shows this is unlikely.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has predicted the national deficit will hit a record-breaking $3.7 trillion for just this federal fiscal year, but the approval of a second economic relief package could raise that amount even higher.
In its projection, the CBO cited the worldwide economic recession caused by the pandemic, which has led to a decrease in the nation's gross domestic product (GDP) and Treasury security interest rates, along with an increase in unemployment numbers.
The economic fallout from the pandemic has already cost the federal government an estimated $1.76 trillion, after Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act in late March. That legislative package has provided financial assistance to American families, the unemployed and eligible businesses.
Many CARES Act measures have already expired or are set to expire this week, adding to the pressure on federal lawmakers to pass new relief legislation.
The Democratic-controlled House approved a second package in late May, titled the Health and Economic Recovery Omnibus Emergency Solutions (HEROES) Act. The $3 trillion bill contains unemployment and state aid but has faced opposition from Senate Republicans.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced on Monday the Republicans' proposed relief package, the Health, Economic Assistance, Liability Protection and Schools (HEALS) Act, but the $1 trillion bill has already received significant criticism from both Republicans and Democrats.
While lawmakers across party lines generally agree that another federal package is necessary during the pandemic, there is much disagreement over how much money should be spent.
Before McConnell could officially announce the legislation, Senator Lindsey Graham suggested that half of Republican lawmakers would vote against it. Senator Ted Cruz said Monday that there was "significant resistance" within his party to adding another trillion dollars in federal spending.
"I think it's likely that you'll see a number of Republicans in opposition to this bill and expressing serious concerns," Cruz told CNN.
Democratic lawmakers, on the other hand, have dismissed the HEALS Act as a "pathetic" nonstarter, criticizing Republicans for arguing over whether to extend the extra $600 provided to unemployed Americans each week in federal aid...

The house I grew up in backed onto the local park and, as kids, my chums and I were intimately familiar with all its nooks and crannies. I’m talking about the nooks and crannies of the park, of course; although I was also familiar with the nooks and crannies of the house I grew up in. In the park there was a tree that stood on its own; it was a hawthorn tree and split into two trunks immediately after it emerged from the ground. The legend that had been handed down to us was that if you stepped through the fork of the tree you could make a wish, and, presumably, it would come true. I seem to remember that we all frequently stepped through the fork but I can neither remember any wishes that I made nor whether any of them came true.
One day, having become bored with continually stepping through the split in the tree, one of our number, Steve, decided to take things a stage further and climb it. The rest of us stood on the ground watching as Steve shinned his way up one of the trunks and disappeared into the thick canopy above. After a period of time when something should have happened but didn’t, we started shouting up to Steve, but answer came there none. We must have hung around the bottom of that tree for a good hour or so shouting and throwing sticks up into it. Why we threw sticks I don’t know; I imagine we thought we could dislodge Steve if we were lucky enough to hit him with one. Anyway, we eventually got bored and wandered off.
Later, we decided to go round to Steve’s house to see if he had gone home yet. We knocked on the door and it was opened by his mother. We knew it was his mother because we had all knocked on that same door countless times before and asked “ is your Steve in”, and been met with the response “yes, I’ll tell him you’re here”. But this time we were met with a blank stare and the question, “who is Steve”? She didn’t even show any sign of recognising any of us. At school it was just the same; no one seemed to have any knowledge of Steve and there was absolutely no sign of him ever having been there.
We did return to the tree in the autumn when the leaves had fallen but there was still no sign of Steve. We even rummaged through the pile of dead leaves at the base of the tree but found nothing resembling the remains of him. We continued going into the park but we never again went anywhere near the Wishing Tree.
In fond memory of our friend, Steve.
