  • Using “friend of the court” briefs, the NRA has cloned itself to amplify its voice before the Supreme Court, just as other front groups have done in cases that matter most to big right-wing donors. Here’s how the Scheme works:

      He's too competent and not populist enough. He has the talent, intelligence, and honor to make a great U.S. President, but the campaigning and media process would eat him up. For the media he'll be too boring and they'll start creating their own narrative and controversies. It will be Al Gore all over again.

      @@marshcreek4355 - yes, people think this is a popularity contest when it isn't. People are supposed to vote for who has the most knowlege, experience, morals and best ideas on how to steer the country and world in the correct direction and be a great negotiator with all inside and outside the country. However, Sen. Whitehouse has said he's content to stay where he is doing what he's doing, which I agree, but still think he'd make a great president and with the name Whitehouse, I think it was meant to be. Been saying this for years.

      People should start paying attention to their primary elections, so we don't get so many totally unqualified candidates. Long, long gone are the days when we could trust only qualified people to run for office. And for sure we need 60 Democratic Senators to get rid of the big money we have in elections. Imagine how much we could have to spend and how much we could help the other countries who are struggling, if elections didn't cost more than our national debt.

      The only way it can be done now after the SC has said it was ok, is through legislation. It benefits Repubs. They will not lift a finger to get rid of their breadbasket. We need more Democratic Senators and Reps who are mainly "for the people" and not for their own pockets. The filibuster also has to go.

    I've known Sheldon since I was 13 years-old. In my entire life, I don't think I've ever met a man so sincere in his beliefs, so dedicated to the pursuit of verifiable facts (however inconvenient they may be), so committed to the health and longevity of our nation. I can tell you first-hand, he is the real deal. And while I've urged him over the decades to consider running for president, he has remained firm that being commander in chief is not something that interests him. He has no lust for power. He simply wants to serve his country in the effective way he can. I gotta say, in spite of everything we are going through at this awful, most divisive moment in our history, this man represents the very best of what we can reasonably hope to achieve-and somehow manages to rekindle my shattered patriotism. Sheldon, I doff my hat.

      Same. I tried looking myself and it was just too effing vast and honestly made me feel like I was going a bit insane. It's one of those things that kinda makes you just stop because it ends up seeming like a conspiracy theory so you convince yourself to just be quiet and try to ignore it unless/until someone else goes, "uh...you see this sht?" Lol
      So glad he did all this research. I was familiar with the overall bits. I'm curious if he will go into all the huge UA-cam/content creators who are funded by the Koch brothers like Dave Rubin.

    It's obvious from the research of cycles of economic civilised standards, that the feedback mechanism of illicitly acquired money, has inevitable destructive consequences consequences, because it's the reverse of the values of truth (in Labelling).
    The correct equivalence of terms in correlations of behaviour in truth, is that which General Mark Milley applied to the appropriate understanding of the Constitutional Authority to Defence of the appropriate Philosophy of Sociological integration in continuity.
    The government of the day has to support Defence strategies in continuity and demote organised crime by prevention of the misapplication of law.
    Physicists know that real-time relative-timing is reversible in the standing wave-packaging formation of holography-quantization, and the empirical laws of probabilistic correlations in the Justice System, depending on the selection of evidence. Meaningful justice is obliterated by the uncivilised actions of Dark Money dominance of political influence.
