I think we need to write in probabilities because at least the press is not free.

I don't think of it like a conspiracy theory, but probability.

There's a slight probability he's not deceased.



Were you able to get passed that paywall through the NYT reference?


No, can you just state what the Epstein conspiracy is relating to Israel defending itself? I do not get these esoteric references and abstract citations, what is the claim you guys are making?

This is my question (not a claim nor opinion).

"Is there a pattern of Jeffrey Epstein using sex blackmail related to the two wars?"


I didn't know you were in the dark.

The term for it is "honeypot".

I'd expect to read about Tim getting in trouble all of the sudden.


“Why in the world would good conservatives vote for crazy stuff like what we’ve been seeing out of Congress?”

Rep. Tim Burchett says he’s ‘sure’ members of Congress have been ‘honeypot’ victims: ‘Next thing you know, you’re in the motel room with them naked’

Tennessee Republican Rep. Tim Burchett claimed Thursday that “good conservative” lawmakers are falling victim to “honeypot” schemes and voting in ways to avoid being outed for their deviant behavior.

The “powerful people” entrapping members of Congress are “always either out on the tarmac or in the private room” with the president, Burchett right-wing podcast host Benny Johnson during a discussion that centered on the impending release of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s client list.

“They’re the ones that write the big checks. They don’t care who’s in [office]. They hate this country. They hate what we’re about. But they love their portfolios and they love their money more than they do anything else,” the 59-year-old congressman said, adding that they gather disparaging information about lawmakers in order to “protect” their investments.

“And by doing so, you know, the old honey pot — the Russians do that — and I’m sure members of Congress have been caught up,” Burchett suggested, without offering any specific evidence other than the voting patterns of some of his congressional colleagues.

“Why in the world would good conservatives vote for crazy stuff like what we’ve been seeing out of Congress?” Burchett said.

The lawmaker went on to assertively describe how he believes the honey trap schemes work.

“You’re visiting, you’re out of the country or out of town or you’re in a motel or at a bar in DC and, whatever you’re into – women, men, whatever — comes up and they’re very attractive and they’re laughing at your jokes. And you’re buying them a drink. Next thing you know, you’re in the motel room with them naked,” he said.

“And next thing you know, you know you’re about to make a key vote. And what happens? Some well-dressed person comes out and whispers in your ear, ‘Hey, man, there’s tapes out on you,’ or, ‘Were you in a motel room or whatever with whoever?’ And then you’re like, ‘Oh,’ and [they] said, ‘You really ought not be voting for this thing,’” Burchett went on.

If it is not leading into a specific claim, it is just a bizarre question. The links did not clear anything up, other than give a general bio.

OK.

Let me think of another way so you can understand why I asked.

Saw another story about how the hostage families are upset about hostages still being there and how their government is handling it.

Nothing their government can do can be right, no doubt. Difficult situation.

But where all the blame needs to go is the readiness for initial attack. That is what they had power for. For comparison, woe to any U'S president who let's another 9/11 occur.

I don’t follow the this conflict much cause, frankly, I don’t really care.

But the story about the soldier who burned himself to death in protest has broken through my bubble.

My initial thought: what an idiot.

Biden should only get an ice cream in a cone each day we're not in a proxy war.

We'd likely have world peace.


What is his favorite flavor so we can have world peace?

20 Strange Ice Cream Flavors You Need To Try Before You Die

JULY 8, 2022

6. Mountain Dew and Doritos

Sparky's Homemade Ice Cream in Columbia, Missouri, should be a stop for anyone looking to pursue as many weird ice cream flavors they can get their hands on. Sparky's is notorious for their concoctions; as Columbia Missourian notes, they may be best known for the time they thought to use the carcasses of cicada bugs in an ice cream. Cicada likely won't be making a reappearance on their menu anytime soon (probably for the best), but Sparky's will never stop making ice cream that's as intriguing as it sometimes is off-putting. 

One time the folks at the scoop shop decided to take the classic gaming snack duo of Mountain Dew and Doritos and blend them together in one ice cream. The photo on the company's Instagram page shows that the finished product looks like what you might doodle up if someone asked you to draw Mountain Dew and Doritos ice cream — topped with green sprinkles and Dorito crumbles. It's not for everyone, but definitely a flavor to take at least one bite of just to say that you did.
