    i saw an aussie or two running a “democracy workshop” in jw marriott ballroom at the pacific place in hong kong in 2016, minutes away from british consulate and less than 15 minutes walk from us consulate.

    we all knew it didn’t end well. sure probably got paid by three letters agencies as side gig.

    In England, anti-Scottish sentiment starts at the top of society, it is very hard for them to accept half Scottish as president.

    That Trump's mother was Scottish is utterly unimportant to the English. There have been seven to ten Scottish origin PMs.

    That his grandfather was German, that might have their attention a little bit. :)

    In one of Bob Schiller's lectures, he said that if politicians were to tell the truth, he or she will never get elected. I "think" this is the main reason why no good people want to be politician.

    You've misunderstood. Read what I posted again. Enjoying the basic rights and protections of the constitution does not mean, by itself, that you're entitled to vote. That's obvious from what I posted.

    Spot on accurate. As long as you believe the same things as the media you will never be criticized. Hollywood never complains about the genocide of Muslims, but that is not surprising since Hollywood is run by Jews. I remember back in the early 1980s when the DJ for Public Enemy called out racist Jews in NYC, he was run out of the music industry.

    The best book about the media's compliance with the US government is a book called Manufacturing Consent written by Noam Chomsky. He talks at length about how the NYT & WaPo were basically complicit in their unwavering support of the genocide in Cambodia & East Timor.

    A liberal judge ordered in VA that non citizens be placed BACK on the voter rolls after being removed by the Governor. It took the Supreme Court to keep them off the rolls, but all the SCOTUS Democrats voted against that.

    The end of a once great nation is far closer if Harris gets installed.

    Democrats have a plan if Trump prematurely declares election victory.

    Where Trump is talking (so called declaring premature victory) and Harris looks composed (not her usual laughing mad persona so many are familiar with)

    I was anti Trump once, but I've seen so much utter bs with Biden I'm no longer that way.

    va could have done it sooner rather than 90 days threshold, the judge is done by the book while supreme court just ruled things up in the fly.
