The Reason Republicans LIE So Much Is: They Have NOTHING ELSE to Offer! They FAILED COMPLETELY When Trump was President and They CANNOT Run On What a Great Job They Did When They Were in Power.

@MaryLTrump
Truth Social is actually a way for donors to funnel money to Donald without scrutiny.
The headlines today are all about Donald’s plummeting stock prices, but that’s just scratching the surface.
The real story, the one that’s buried beneath the sensational headlines, is far more intriguing: Truth Social could be a front for a campaign finance scam.
Let me break it down for you:
Direct donations to political candidates are subject to FEC laws, which impose limits on the amount that can be donated and require transparency about the source of donations.
Now that Truth Social is a publicly traded company, however, supporters and even foreign entities have a new, surreptitious way to back Donald financially without having to make a direct political donation.
This is a cause for concern.
Still, today’s developments offer some positive news: without a solid financial foundation, the company’s ability to operate, let alone pose a threat, is significantly compromised.
One thing is certain: our eyes are open. And we’re watching.

horse not drinking on principal cartoon


It’s not enough to know how to think critically… you also have to want to do it.
When I teach critical thinking, I ask students to consider potential harms from falling for false or misleading claims. We make decisions based on our beliefs, impacting our health, our pocketbook, and even how we vote.
It reminds me of the saying, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink.” Well, you can teach someone to think critically, but you can’t make them do it.
Critical thinking is more effortful than autopilot or intuitive thinking. But it’s your best shot at protecting yourself from being fooled.
Comic: Rubes Cartoons

belief in God Mocked Cartoon

If you want to know if a belief is true, one of the most important first steps is to determine if it’s falsifiable.

Belief in the supernatural, conspiracy “theories”, and strongly held political opinions cannot be proven wrong, no matter how many “facts” you find to support them. (We can always find “evidence” to support what we want to believe if we look hard enough!) If you choose to accept these unfalsifiable beliefs anyway, recognize that they’re not evidence-based.

Instead of looking for evidence that you’re right, determine if the belief is falsifiable. If it is, actively look for evidence to prove yourself wrong. If it’s true, it will withstand scrutiny. But if it’s not true, try to accept the evidence and change your mind. Resist the temptation to protect the belief from disproof by moving the goalposts.

And don’t assume you must be right simply because you can’t be proven wrong.

We don’t see reality as it is, but as our minds shape it. Our perceptions are an interpretation of reality, and are strongly influenced by our prior knowledge, experiences, emotions, motivations, and self-interests. We need others to help us see our blind spots.

tobacco company anti truth plan

DOUBT IS OUR PRODUCT

Certain vested interests have a documented history of confusing the public about established science to avoid regulation and protect their business models.

Their problem is that they don' have the evidence to support their position or disprove the consensus. (If they did, they would certainly provide it.) So instead, they sow doubt. They point out minor uncertainties to claim the “science isn’t settled”, and cherry pick contrarians or fake experts to convince us that there’s no consensus.

For example, the tobacco industry manufactured doubt about the link between smoking and health problems. (See image below.)

And fossil fuel companies used the same strategy, with many of the same think tanks and scientists, to convince the public that the science of human-caused climate change wasn’t “settled”, even though they knew otherwise (link below). A memo from Frank Luntz to President George W. Bush in 2002 stated: “Should the public come to believe that the scientific issues are settled, their views about global warming will change accordingly. Therefore, you need to continue to make the lack of scientific certainty a primary issue in the debate.”

Importantly, science denial is motivated by not wanting to accept a strongly-supported scientific conclusion because it’s perceived to conflict with our core beliefs... especially those tied to our identities. Special interest groups lean into the biases and emotions that make us easy targets, and convince us that it’s the scientific community (not them) who’s out to control us. Their game plan only works if we lose trust in reliable sources of information.

The point is, the goal of science denial isn’t to convince the masses that science is wrong (because they can’t), but to sow enough doubt that the public either gets confused or descends into nihilism.

The purveyors of science denial need victims. Don’t let them fool you.

RFK Jr 4 POTUS! He's Running for President as an Independent... With MRS GOOGLE as Vice President... Having Concluded that BOTH Political Parties are Hopeless... and He's asking some difficult questions that no one else dares ask.

RFK Jr 4 POTUS - or Trump's VP! He's Running for President as an Independent... Having Concluded that BOTH Political Parties are Hopeless... and He's asking some difficult questions that no one else dares ask.

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced Tuesday that attorney and tech entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan will be his vice presidential running mate heading into the November general election.

RFK Jr POTUS 2024 He s Considering Running for President as an Independent...
and YES, You May Change the Text!


Who is Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and why is he running for president? The lack of excitement many Americans feel about a presidential rematch has heightened interest in alternatives to the major-party candidates — none more so than RFK Jr.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/robert-kennedy-jr-running-president-108225247

RFK Jr tells Jimmy Dore that Tony Fauci has been in charge of developing bioweapons for the Pentagon since 2002, and in 2014, three viruses escaped from US labs, so he moved his bioweapons research to the Wuhan lab:

"They took the money that Cheney gave them [from the Patriot Act], $2.2 billion, and they funneled it through NIH, and it all went through Anthony Fauci. So beginning in 2002, Anthony Fauci got a 68% raise from the Pentagon for doing bioweapons development, and he got a raise of billions of dollars a year, and then he started doing all of this gain-of-function.

Former CDC Director Robert Redfield recently testified before a Congressional committee that NIAID Director Anthony Fauci had funded gain-of-function research into coronaviruses at the Wuhan lab that is suspected of being the source of COVID. Fauci of course famously testified under oath that he had NOT funded gain-of-function research, so SOMEONE is lying. Jimmy and guest Robert F. Kennedy jr. discuss Fauci’s sordid record of corruption, skirting the law and getting in bed with the Defense Department to research bioweaponry. Follow Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Twitter: / robertkennedyjr

RFK Jr is Asking Troubling Questions. Are Weird Chemicals in our Water Causing Mass Insanity? Should We Legalize Marijuana and Psychedelics? Talking Heads on TV News MOCK These Questions as CrazyTalk® However... He Has a Valid Point! For Example: The National Institute of Health Says:

Endocrine Disruptors in Water and Their Effects on the Reproductive System...
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32178293/
Anthropogenic contaminants in water can impose risks to reproductive health. Most of these compounds are known to be endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). EDCs can impact the endocrine system and subsequently impair the development and fertility of non-human animals and humans. The source of chemical contamination in water is diverse, originating from byproducts formed during water disinfection processes, release from industry and livestock activity, or therapeutic drugs released into sewage.

Risk of endocrine disrupting compounds in drinking water...
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41545-018-0029-3
Access to safe water is a crucial factor in determining environmental sustainability, public health, and economic prosperity. Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) are an environmental contaminant of growing concern, which undermine the safety of drinking water.

The Legalization of Marijuana and Psychedelics Nationwide is OBVIOUSLY a Good Idea. Tax Them and Use the Money to Build Drug Rehab Programs... PLUS: We could Save a Fortune Currently Wasted on Law Enforcement and Incarceration... We COULD Retrain Policemen to Do Something Useful with their LIVES!

A Little Known Benefit to Legalization is FDA Quality Control and Accurate Doseage... Currently, Criminals Selling "ACID" may be Selling a Random Assortment of Chemicals that Make People Feel Strange... For Example: Fentanyl mixed with Methamphetamine... Yes, THAT would take You on a "TRIP" but it could Kill You...

RFK Jr is Wrong. COVID-19 Is Not a BioWeapon Designed to Kill Republicans. Yes, That's What Happened but It Was Not Intentionally Engineered that Way... We Were Just Lucky...

Remember: ANTI-VAX LIES On The Internet Have Killed Off More Republicans Than Democrats. THANK YOU FOR DYING! We Certainly Don't Need People Like That in the Future...

More than 1.1 million Americans have died from COVID-19. It Seems that It Wasn't a "Democratic Hoax" After All... Trump Lied, People Died...

Studies have also found that more Republicans than Democrats have died from COVID-19. According to a study, excess death rates in Florida and Ohio were 76% higher among registered Republicans than Democrats from March 2020 to December 2021.
https://www.usnews.com/news/the-report/articles/2023-03-10/three-years-into-the-pandemic-who-is-dying-from-covid-19-now

Covid death rates are higher among Republicans than Democrats, mounting evidence shows. Lower vaccination rates among Republicans could explain the partisan gap, but some researchers say mask use and social distancing were bigger factors.

EXCLUSIVE: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Planning to Announce Independent Run... 


2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to announce he will run as an independent on October 9 in Pennsylvania, Mediaite has learned.
Kennedy’s campaign machine is now planning “attack ads” against the Democratic National Committee in order to “pave the way” for his announcement in Philadelphia about running as an independent, according to a text reviewed by Mediaite.
“Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go,” a Kennedy campaign insider told Mediaite.

Poll: RFK Jr. would pull more support from Trump than Biden... 

  • RFK Jr. has hinted at an independent run
  • In the poll, Kennedy garnered 19% of support 
  • A Super PAC supporting RFK Jr. commissioned the poll


Ken Kesey


"I believe that with the advent of acid, we discovered a new way to think, and it has to do with piecing together new thoughts in your mind. Why is it that people think it's so evil? What is it about it that scares people so deeply, even the guy that invented it, what is it? Because they're afraid that there's more to reality than they have confronted. That there are doors that they're afraid to go in, and they don't want us to go in there either, because if we go in we might learn something that they don't know. And that makes us a little out of their control." —Ken Kesey, "The Beyond Within: The Rise and Fall of LSD," 1987

SE SAID:
I've always found it frustrating that when you shop for vintage clothing, the sizes are always ridiculously tiny. I've often wondered why it seems like women in the 50's and 60's were so tiny compared to modern women. I realize there is a lot of obesity in today's world, but I'm not talking about obesity, I'm talking about average-sized women, like a size 6 or 8. And yes, I know that there is a thing nowadays called "vanity sizing," where they take what was formerly a size 10 and call it a 6 just to make women feel better about their size. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm a fairly average-sized woman, not super tiny, but not what most people consider overweight. I typically wear a size 6 or a medium in most things. But vintage clothes are almost always so small that they look like they would fit a child. I can tell from looking at old photos that the average woman in the 50's and 60's wasn't that tiny. My mother and my grandmothers were around my size, and when I look at other old photos, I see women of all shapes and sizes, just like nowadays. So why is it that all of the vintage clothing is so ridiculously tiny?? It's not because women in the 50's and 60's were so much smaller, it's because those are the articles of clothing that have survived until now. Those ridiculously small dresses from the 50's and 60's are in vintage clothing stores now because nobody fit into them in the 50's and 60's either, so they were never worn, and that's why they still look brand new in 2021. The ones which fit NORMAL-sized women eventually got worn out, so they didn't survive to end up in vintage stores in 2021. Only the ones which DIDN'T get worn out survived 60 years to end up in vintage stores in 2021. The fact that vintage dresses are so tiny does NOT mean women were super tiny back then. It means that very few women were tiny enough to fit those sizes, so that's why those are the sizes that still exist today.


Fox News meme


Satire Mockery meme


Aaron Standish 

Happy April Fools to my first comedy writing partner the artist and poet Steve Ferchaud-

The past two days are a confluence of holidays that happens only rarely. Yesterday it was all “Bless Our Lord and Savior Who Died On The Cross And Rose Three Days Later To Save Us From Our Sins” and today it’s “April Fools!”. Makes sense to me.
When was the last time you were at a good old fashioned orgy? If you’re like me and Ms. Merry it’s probably been a few years. Living in Manton doesn’t provide a lot of access to Bacchanalia despite being the wino capital of Tehama County. If we were going to party like it’s 1999 we’d have to drive all the way to Reno or some other swinger town like Yuba City. Then we’d have to stay up way past our bedtime–normally 8 or 9 depending on how many MASH re-runs we watch–and at least one of us would have to have sex with a bunch of strangers and then drive the other one home because he wore himself out watching. We’re too old for that.
We’re too old for a lot of stuff anymore. Looking in the mirror, day drinking, and loading our own ammo to name but a few. What happened? We used to be able to run a full time business for fake hippies (all hail Wild Oak, which did what every kid from Red Bluff wants to do when they reach their twenties–move to the coast), grow massive home gardens, keep a dozen animals in line, write and perform a couple new comedy shows every year and still have time to break plenty of God’s laws with impunity. Now we’re lucky if we get enough firewood up on the porch to keep the house warm for naptime.
But we’re trying. We haven’t sunk to bocce yet. The other day we took our two remaining dogs for a hike out Ponderosa Way. Swamper and Lucky. Two dogs that live up to their dumb names. It’s easy to picture the hound Swamper tipping over a canoe, jumping to shore for his own safety and barking madly at you as you sank. Lucky is a reactive junkyard shepherdmuttbull with more lives than a schizophrenic cat. Together they are almost one good dog about half the time.
Ponderosa Way was originally an 800 mile firebreak built during the Great Depression by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Out of work citizens hired by the government to labor for the greater good. Say what? The remaining Manton sections are mostly used for horseback riding, mountain biking, dog losing, gun blasting, truck stucking, love making and the occasional body dumping. Some of us do it all.
The dog walk turned out to be a disaster. Swamper bellowed the whole time, causing small avalanches and waking up bears. Lucky chased some guy in a jeep for two canyons before giving up and waiting for us in a mud puddle. We’re going to try it again without them next week.
When we got home I started waxing philosophical (which is easier than waxing physical, or so I’m told) about how we could barely get through a dog walk when we used to work all day and play all night. I guess it’s like the late, great two fingered typer of local lore Robert Minch used to say “I knew it was time to stop going to orgies when they stopped inviting me.” Or something like that. I think he also said “Where’s my obit, bitches?” Fair question.
Speaking of things that aren’t the same anymore–The Board of Supervisors. The recent election brought new names to the board and new challenges to joke writers. For the second election in a row. Let’s be honest-sensible supervisors are good for the county, but suck for comedy. The clown show of only two years ago was much more entertaining than anything this younger and more thoughtful group will be able to pull off.
Who doesn’t miss Bob Williams calling all the women in the room cunts? Or taking bets on when Dennis Garton’s heart would explode from…well, almost anything. But usually from organized potheads who relished talking smart to him just to watch his face turn color. And while soon-to-be-former-supe John Leach did a fair impersonation of imitating a sleepy disinterested Burt Bundy after replacing him in 2022, there has never been serious discussion of whether or not Leach was actually dead during the meetings. (Bundy has since been buried, so we assume he was.) The only ‘new’ supervisor that has continued the grand tradition of being both a curmudgeon and a condescending know-it-all is Bill Moule, he of the glass house. But Moule will soon be replaced by Robert Burroughs and can go back to being a danger on the road.
None of the new kids seem to have prohibition or mean-spiritedness as a priority. Unlike Williams, Garton and certain snarky columnists. Water management is finally considered a serious issue. In-Home Support Service workers got a new contract and a rational approach to cannabis is underway. Where’s the fun in that? How are witty wags supposed to mock sensible, decent, hardworking (and underpaid) public servants? Well, let me take a shot-
Pati Nolen (seated, D3) is my friend and neighbor. If you’re anything like the rest of my Manton neighbors, that probably scares you. It scares me.
Matt Hansen (seated, D4) used to be a cop. If you’re anything like the rest of my Manton neighbors, that probably scares you. Still a hero for unseating and spanking Williams in 2022.
Greg Jones (incoming, D5) is a smart nut farmer who understands there are more solutions to failing wells than drilling deeper. He may get fragged by nuttier nut farmers.
Robert Burroghs (incoming, D1) is a decorated combat vet with enough medals to start a wind chime business, but wouldn’t answer media questions about…well, anything. Apparently a winning strategy.
Tom Walker (incoming, D2) is the young blood choice of the good old boys, replacing Candy Carlson and making Williams and Garton sneer in glee. He may be the only fun left to have.

So this is the first thing that appears to me on Facebook…and before my coffee I might add. It is April Fools greetings from one of my best friends, Aaron Standish. We you used to write and perform comedy back in the day when we weren’t old enough to know better but young enough not to care. But as they say, with friends like these, who needs enemas? He taught me how to be a better writer… He also taught me to tie my shoes and look both ways before crossing. Actually, he didn’t help me with the last two, I just let him believe it, because it makes him happy when he is drunk reminiscing. Happy April Fools Day, old chum, and thanks for all the fun 


April Fools Day
High Holy Day
Of Fools
Everybody Plays the Fool
Sometimes
A Chain Of Fools
Such As I, Rushing In
We Will Be Fooled Again
True Foolishness
Comes From Within
A Foolish Light
Showing Us The Way
Through The Foolisher Darkness
Other Fools May Follow
But We Were Fooled
First
First of Fools, Last To Laugh
April, Come She Will
Or She’ll Fake It
Fool You Once, Shame On Her
Fool You Twice, You’re Hooked
Do Not Let The Wise Men
Fool You
Out Of Your Gift
Of Making Fools
Of Them
Your Cup Is Not
Half Empty
It Is
Half Fool 


I've always found it frustrating that when you shop for vintage clothing, the sizes are always ridiculously tiny. I've often wondered why it seems like women in the 50's and 60's were so tiny compared to modern women. I realize there is a lot of obesity in today's world, but I'm not talking about obesity, I'm talking about average-sized women, like a size 6 or 8. And yes, I know that there is a thing nowadays called "vanity sizing," where they take what was formerly a size 10 and call it a 6 just to make women feel better about their size. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm a fairly average-sized woman, not super tiny, but not what most people consider overweight. I typically wear a size 6 or a medium in most things. But vintage clothes are almost always so small that they look like they would fit a child. I can tell from looking at old photos that the average woman in the 50's and 60's wasn't that tiny. My mother and my grandmothers were around my size, and when I look at other old photos, I see women of all shapes and sizes, just like nowadays. So why is it that all of the vintage clothing is so ridiculously tiny?? It's not because women in the 50's and 60's were so much smaller, it's because those are the articles of clothing that have survived until now. Those ridiculously small dresses from the 50's and 60's are in vintage clothing stores now because nobody fit into them in the 50's and 60's either, so they were never worn, and that's why they still look brand new in 2021. The ones which fit NORMAL-sized women eventually got worn out, so they didn't survive to end up in vintage stores in 2021. Only the ones which DIDN'T get worn out survived 60 years to end up in vintage stores in 2021. The fact that vintage dresses are so tiny does NOT mean women were super tiny back then. It means that very few women were tiny enough to fit those sizes, so that's why those are the sizes that still exist today.

Will the Corrupt Supreme Court Rule that CRIME IS LEGAL for Trump? Question: Would Total Presidential Immunity Allow Biden to Murder Trump LEGALLY?

Hey SCOTUS! The Reason Ford Pardoned Nixon was to Prevent Nixon's Arrest for Crimes Committed While President. Get it?

Supreme Court to Decide on Trump Immunity Claim in 2020 Election Case...
Move buys former president more time ahead of any criminal trial... 
https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/supreme-court-to-say-if-donald-trump-must-stand-trial-in-2020-election-conspiracy-case-1b7f4e3f

If the Supreme Court decides quickly to reject Trump’s bold immunity claim, it may permit a final trial on the 2020 election interference to occur later this summer or fall. But there’s no guarantee a final decision will actually come before November.

Former appeals court Judge Michael Luttig predicted that it is now probably “unimaginable” that Trump will be tried in special counsel Jack Smith’s federal election interference trial before the 2024 election.




The Supreme Court will decide if ex-President Donald Trump is immune from being prosecuted on charges of trying to overturn the 2020 election.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68431830

The 6-3 conservative majority court said it will hear arguments in April. A ruling could come by the end of June.

A US Court of Appeals panel has already rejected Mr Trump's argument.

He had claimed in the landmark legal case that he was immune from all criminal charges for acts that he said fell within his duties as president.

The Supreme Court taking the case is being seen as a victory for the former president as it increases the chances that his trial may not happen before November's presidential election.

Is there a social taboo, especially among the news media, that is limiting our much-needed discussions of these types of health issues as seen with politicians and other leaders?
I don’t want to say the mainstream media is covering up Trump’s cognitive disability, but they certainly aren’t covering it like the 5-alarm fire it is. The media will show Trump being combative and saying something outrageous and his audience reacting to it — but they are consistently not showing the parts of Trump’s speeches and interviews where his eyes go blank, his jaw goes slack, he looks confused, and slurs words, uses non-words, can't finish a sentence, rambles, perseverates, confabulates and babbles incoherently. That’s what should make the 6 o’clock news. Doesn’t the media have a duty to warn the public that the man who wants the nuclear codes back (not including the ones he probably stole) is publicly displaying unimpeachable evidence of a broken and deteriorating brain?

Democracy sure looks dead:
Two days ago, in Slate, legal analyst Mark Joseph Stern noted that when Mitch McConnell (R-KY) was Senate majority leader, he “realized you don’t need to win elections to enact Republican policy. You don’t need to change hearts and minds. You don’t need to push ballot initiatives or win over the views of the people. All you have to do is stack the courts. You only need 51 votes in the Senate to stack the courts with far-right partisan activists…[a]nd they will enact Republican policies under the guise of judicial review, policies that could never pass through the democratic process. And those policies will be bulletproof, because they will be called ‘law.’”
~Heather Cox Richardson
