Dr. Vance Boelter has been involved with security situations in Eastern Europe, Africa, North America and the Middle East, including the West Bank, Southern Lebanon and the Gaza Strip. He brings a great security aspect forged by both many on the ground experiences combined with training by both private security firms and by people in the U.S. Military. He has worked for the largest U.S. oil refining company, the world’s largest food company based in Switzerland and the world’s largest convenience retailer based in Japan.

Yeah, so he’s saying he worked at a 7-11?

Gavin Newsom has let L.A. burn to the ground…

Oh god, this old chestnut they keep trotting out. (Remember all those “entire cities burned to the ground” by Antifa and BLM 5 years ago?)

on so many occasions

Wait, what? Now they’re claiming the same governor has let the same city burn to the ground “on so many occasions”?

Well then, he gets my vote! If he’s competent enough to oversee rebuilding a burned metropolis not once, not twice but “so many” times in just two terms, this guy clearly gets shit done!

Abstract

This paper provides an exhaustive and incontrovertible mathematical framework establishing the causative relationship between vaccines and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Employing avant-garde statistical pseudo-logic, nonlinear pseudoscience, and hyperbolic integrals, we derive novel equations that not only confirm but quantify the absurdly subtle mechanisms by which vaccines trigger ASD. Our findings challenge the prevailing dogma of evidence-based medicine by introducing the groundbreaking concept of “Vax-induced Neuro-Synapticality” (VINS) and its inverse correlation with
common sense. This work, at the intersection of quantum conjecture and wishful thinking, paves the way for future “research” in vaccine skepticism with impeccable rigor.

I’ve used it a lot just to control audio or video playing on my computer from my phone. (Sometimes when I’m sat at my computer with multiple windows and workspaces open, I even find it easier just to hit my phone’s lockscreen to pause the music.)

I’m starting to use some of its other features, too. E.g. copying & pasting and sharing files between phone and computer.

There’s more too I need to explore.

I disagree.

Especially as the people who believe in “pizza place basements” are now running the show.

Ah, to let white supremacists proceed with dismantling democracy and human rights without interference from ‘wokes’ in the federal government?

However, in the former Confederate States, many paramilitary groups sought to suppress, often through intimidation and violence, African-American political power and return the South to rule by the predominantly white Democratic Party. Although African Americans were initially supported by the federal government, as Reconstruction went on, that support waned.[2] Following the bitterly disputed 1876 U.S. presidential election and Compromise of 1877, Congressmen and Senators from the former Confederate States returned to Washington and prioritized prohibiting the federal government from reimposing control over their states.

Yep.

Realpolitik is German for “short-term thinking that will eventually bite you in the arse”.

So it was the AI that added the maritime setting, not you?

Cool, added to my watchlist :)
