There were, iirc a number of serious trade restrictions and other measures enacted against Japan at the time that virtually guaranteed their declaring war on us. I don’t think Pearl Harbor itself was anticipated though

The school zone violations are the easiest to get but also the easiest to avoid. Usually 15-20 mph. Citywide speed limit 25; speed cameras start sending tickets if you go above like 32. Honestly surprising that Cuomo drives. Seems like a chauffeur driven guy to me.

Oh yeah, fairly recently (last 10 years or so) a private jet owned by a CIA shell company went down stuffed to the gills with cocaine. They were 100% responsible for the crack epidemic and the “war on drugs” aka war on POC

“Centrist” dems are right wing politicians. Progressives and Dem Socialists are actual left wing. Republicans are Fascists. So I guess, SUPER-right wing? The Democratic Party needs to realize that unless we get another FDR like NOW, there is going to be a lot of blood on their hands.

MKULTA and COINTELPRO were pretty wild. Operation Northwoods as well. And the FBI basically admitted to assassinating Dr King. By the 1990s they learned to eliminate the paper trails, so probably no telling who actually knew what regarding 9/11 or the 20 trillion dollars that vanished into thin air during Iraq and Afghanistan

At a certain point, people stop telling you “no” and then you end up with a gold nose ring and hippie beard. Dorsey probably hasn’t heard a “no” since 2006

Wait, DOGE still exists?! I thought it was understood to be a completely illegal power grab by the executive

"The removal of Hitler and Mussolini and a few of their collaborators does not mean that fascism is dead. Now the fascists can take a more subtle disguise, they can come forward and simply say 'I am anti-Communist.'" -O. John Rogge

The fight against fascism never ended, the fascists have been masquerading as republicans for 50 years, and now that Trump has given them all license, they are dropping their masks.
