**** We can really summarize everything about the sticky and dangerous situation America is in, by two questions during the Tulsi Gabbard hearings. ****
Gabbard danced around both of these questions and offered no answer. Every one of us needs to take this in. This is our PREDICAMENT.
One question was whether Intelligence advised Trump that if Iran was attacked, they'd very likely close the Strait of Hormuz as a retaliatory tactic. (Shallow State: Of course they did.) Gabbard stammered and evaded the question in her non-response.
The other question was whether Intelligence had affirmatively determined that Iran posed an imminent nuclear threat. (Shallow State: Of course they did not.) This question was laid out brilliantly by Jon Ossoff, who pretty much showed that Intel HADN'T done so, and Gabbard's way of dealing with this, was to say that only the President had the ability to determine what threats are or are not imminent. Ossoff nailed her in his response, but she stayed awkwardly silent.
Let's process this. We're IN a war. The Strait of Hormuz IS closed; this IS strangling supply and increasing price. It's not something that is "imminent" - this is something that IS happening. Moreover, allies have uniformly REFUSED to put their troops in harm's way to help Trump navigate ships through the Strait. And moreover, the top aide to the cabinet official testifying just RESIGNED because, he said, there was NO imminent nuclear threat leading to the attack.
Despite these REALITIES, the choice made by Gabbard was to sit there and look dumb rather that buck Trump, to sit there and deny what her Intelligence showed, rather than put it forth. In other words - she chose to protect her fealty to Trump over her oath to America and the Constitution, during war.
So - sports fans- tell me, what does this show? It shows we have a President WHOSE PATHOLOGY DEMANDS that fealty to him be protected EVEN WHEN it hurts America, its people, allies, and the world, in a significant and obvious way, and EVEN WHEN all that pain is because the President f*cked up.
NOW LET'S GET TO THE PUNCH LINE: This is a midterm election year. And Trump's pathology which creates the dynamic that led to Gabbard's disingenuousness, NEEDS to be put out there!!! Who is going to do it? As the midterms approach, Dems will mostly speak to the economy, some will speak to other issues (like immigration) which are asked about in every freakin' political poll. These polls NEVER ask about Trump's stability, decline, or pathology - NEVER. Legacy media won't focus much on it either. It has to be Independent Media with potential to cross over.
And THIS is why we're making the film UNFIT TOO, to be released before the midterms. Because the predicament that we're in - the predicament we're REALLY in - IS pathological, and it's not out there much at all, and it NEEDS to be out there - truthfully, by experts, science above partisanship, with Democracy on the line.
I'm going to rest now. For a minute or two.

The WSJ editorial board makes the case against the SAVE Act, both on the substance of what's in it and what it would take to pass it.

I knew Starr was a pervert when he added all of those disgusting, salacious details about Bill & Monica into the STARR REPORT. I worked on the hill during that time. It was crazy. A supposed Godly Christian man, he was another Epstein pervert. Wow!!

Why was Kenneth Starr emailing Jeffrey Epstein telling him “I’m a Bad Boy” and he “Thinks of him often”! What kind of relationship did they have! 👇👇👇👇
