“As of 2020, there were so many former FBI employees working at Twitter that they had created their own private Slack channel and a crib sheet to onboard new FBI arrivals.” It appears that Twitter still has 14 employees on the payroll who worked at the FBI and CIA.  Should be a national scandal but nobody sems to care.  Introducing new term:  “sheep dipped”

If you only know two things about progressives today, it is that they are obsessed with income inequality, and have a bad case of envy for Scandinavian socialism, endlessly suggesting Denmark or Sweden should be our model for social welfare policy. But guess which industrial democracy practices the largest redistribution of national income to the lower half of the income scale? Turns out to be . . . the United States.

Purchasing government.  “These days you are wasting your money if you pour resources into lobbyists. These days you can directly buy government.  Mark Zuckerberg spent his money in 2020 purchasing the actual mechanism by which elections are conducted; and while this was expected, I think we can be pretty confident that he was satisfied with the results of his purchase…..but that was not the most efficient use of his money, it turned out. …Eric Schmidt found a much more cost efficient way to achieve his goals: funneling money directly into White House Advisors. That is what I would call an efficient use of resources. Literally owning bureaucrats who have access to the president and his advisors.”

Traitors:  “….there are only a few profane words to describe the obscene scene as the two women closest in line for the presidency hoisted the Ukrainian flag from the dias of the House of Representatives while swooning over Ukrainian President Zelenskyy as Congress cheered on December 21. (This appears to be the first time in history the flag of another nation essentially flew inside the U.S. Capitol building.)”
