Don't forget Margarine Peg Toe likes to rant. abcnews.go.com/Politics/house…
Margarine getting her hate on.
Gosar embraces Anime in his hatefest. thehill.com/homenews/house…
Back in the day we relied on professionals like Disney and Warner Brothers to create racist stereotypes.
Hate is the rocket fuel for the MAGA monsters. Hate is linked to fear. Why are they so scared? foreignpolicy.com/2020/11/05/tru…
America is very pliable. We can hate just about anything (insert alarmist stories about enemy here) with enough media support. But can America unhate if the media gets all repentant? businessinsider.com/us-systemic-ra…
Can America stop hating? Depends if we all agree to step back a bit and listen. splcenter.org/hate-map
We can all learn to get along...just don't let the Irish in. "Hibernophobia, this article will show, was a complex ideological construct"

I had no idea that hatred of Irish has a name. Everybody jig now. muse.jhu.edu/article/684049
And don't forget those papists...with that "popery" cato.org/commentary/fig…

A granular article on the perils of rounding what happens when math is hard. securitydebrief.com/2020/11/14/see…
"PedeInspector selected only the lines of data where President Trump “rounded down” and then added all of these numbers together. PedeInspector has repeatedly tried to point out that he does not know the accuracy of the data, did not have permission to use the data"
"Subsequently (PedeInspector) looked at how those numbers evolved over time and called foul if the number for a given candidate appeared to go down, declaring that proof of fraud." leadstories.com/hoax-alert/202…

Gym Jordan is the stooge. Pence was the plant. Trump was the puppetmaster. Meadows the whipping boy. Joseph Schmitz is an entire reality show series. cnn.com/2021/12/15/pol…
The title could be "There’s Something About Schmitz". "Joseph Schmitz approached the leader of the rebel Free Syrian Army. He offered to give them 70,000 assault rifles from Ukraine and 21 million rounds of ammunition" qz.com/211603/how-ukr…
"Joseph Schmitz, Bush’s former Inspector General of the US Department of Defense, who oversaw the Pentagon’s military contracts, later took a position with the Prince Group" oaklandinstitute.org/sites/oaklandi…

Pleaz can Talibs haz ten billion? businessinsider.com/taliban-offici…
Back in the day the talibs were very pro-American. After all we backed jihadis against the Soviets and they won. They were a little put out when we demanded that they hand over bin Laden and act civilized..even though they were bust and the love affair went downhill after that.
The Talibs are also very focused on getting their fingers into international aid money. They know very well that Afghanistan is a beggar nation without foreign help. You can't have your 12th century and eat too. Last time the Saudis and Emiratis came to their rescue.

"The one emotion that outpaced anger in Berger’s study was awe, the feelings of wonder and excitement that come from encountering great beauty or knowledge" smithsonianmag.com/science-nature…
"Awe is the feeling we get in the presence of something vast that challenges our understanding of the world" greatergood.berkeley.edu/topic/awe/defi…
"Seek out experiences that give you goosebumps. Such is the advice of Dacher Keltner, one of the foremost theorists and scholars of awe, a long-overlooked emotion."psychologytoday.com/us/blog/unders…

Not just the coup. August 2020: "(Mark) Meadows no longer holds a daily 8 a.m. meeting that includes health professionals to discuss the raging pandemic. Instead, aides said, he huddles in the mornings with a half-dozen politically oriented aides" washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
"The president recently hosted Andrew Whitney, a biopharmaceuticals executive on the board of a company called Phoenix, who met in the Oval Office with Trump. Whitney... pitched Trump on a botanical extract called oleandrin as a treatment for the coronavirus"
"Enemies would liken him to a political sociopath, someone whose charm and affability conceal an unemotional capacity for deception. Meadows is so consumed with his cloak-and-dagger, 3-D-chess approach to Washington that he can’t always be trusted." politico.com/news/magazine/…
