Rep. Madison Cawthorn revealed last week that since moving to Washington, D.C., he has been invited to orgies with politicians and saw powerful people do “key bumps” of cocaine in front of him, all while the media collected scandalous stories to blackmail people.
Speaking to John Lovell on the Warrior Poet Society podcast, Cawthorn was asked if House of Cards, the show starring Kevin Spacey as the Democratic chief whip and his “secret life of corruption and power and money and perversion,” was anything to close to the reality of what goes on in Washington DC.
Cawthorn said he was astonished at the levels of “sexual perversion” that happen in the nation’s capital.

While the pictures of Michelle Obama as trans are one thing, and certainly strong evidence that she's ugly as fuck and maybe a man, where did the kids come from? Adopted?
I'm sure somebody has looked into this as hard (pun intended) as the fake Hawaii birth certificate. I would like to know more.
Let's face it, Americans are fat, and we waste an enormous amount of food. Further, if food prices did go way up, people in the West would respond by cutting back on expensive foods and wasting less. Also, people would reallocate their money from unnecessary items to necessary items to pay for food (a necessity) if prices got high enough. And because, compared to the rest of the world, the developed world can pay higher prices, the food that does exist will be allocated via prices to those whom can pay for it.
But what about Sub-Saharan Africa? Or places in South America? What about places where people are already marginally getting by with little money to spare and who are NOT fat and who do NOT waste food? Ah. Well there you have it. If you're making $20 a day doing shitty jobs in thirdworldistan, and suddenly your rice and beans triple in price, you're going to go hungry. Civilization is only a few missed meals away from anarchy.
So, just like the "crises" in Libya and Syria that got Europe inundated with "refugees" from Africa and the Middle East, and the United States is perpetually flooded with the brown peoples from beyond its southern border, the hungry hordes will start coming again. And you, you racist bigot that worries about the Great Replacement, you'd be a heartless bastard to keep them from being your new neighbor.
Big money, they kind that's to big to fail in other words, has bought into crypto. It's being co-opted. It still has advantages, in that it is "free speech money", for now at least.
BTW, the big exchanges have been co-opted for years, by handing over your data to the IRS.
Interesting shift in the anti-crypto arguments. It's like they forgot they said it was all a ponzi scheme for suckers and worthless and you should buy muh gold and AR-15s. Funny, because anybody with any sense diversifies and has gold/silver/guns/food AND crypto.
And no, I'm not referring to any one person in particular.
Don’t ever listen to a person bitch about gerrymandered districts. You see, they are regurgitating arguments they don’t understand. They think that competitive elections are good for democracy. They won’t say why though.
Thing is, when a House seat is gerrymandered so it is a solid +10 or so Dem or GOP, it takes a wave election to displace the otherwise safe incumbent. A “competitive” House seat, where the voting is about 50/50 between the two major parties, means that it just gives one side a bigger incentive to cheat. All it takes in a swing district is a 1% advantage in (phony) or harvested mail-in ballots to give victory to the cheater. One side tends to cheat more than the other, and we all know which party that is.
The only truly competitive elections are in suburban areas where the County Clerks are Republican. There are only about 30 of these in the whole country. If any portion of the district is in an inner city Democrat controlled area, well, then it's not a competitive district as the inner city precincts make it non-competitive.
Lastly, the Senate, which is not gerrymandered, is just as partisan and divided as the House. Entire states cannot be gerrymandered! So if somebody is complaining that gerrymandered House seats contribute to partisan rancor because "moderates" don't get elected due there being so few competitive House seats, point him to that institution called the Senate, and tell him to fuck off.
So a reptile at the WEF is talking about using big data to hack the human organism for (presumably) eugenic purposes: https://youtu.be/6G3nWyoQ5CQ?t=205 (link goes to relevant timestamp of a JP Sears video)
If you're going to do that, why say it in the context of talking about human dictatorships? Like you want to make more controllable humans like a Huxley dystopia? Total turn off for the average Joe.
You could easily get buy-in from a large swath of humanity by telling them that if you take X product it will, on average, make your kid Y points higher on the IQ scale, or alternately, choose several attributes that people are going to select mates for (height, strength, constitution, etc.).
In ten year's time, you'd have tons of people saying "we chose the X injection for Mary when we decided to have kids. We are more likely to have a kid with a high verbal IQ. This translates to musical talent, they say, so we are definitely getting the kid violin lessons early. opens present Thanks for coming to our baby shower. What a lovely Tiffany bracelet! Dear, isn't it lovely? Dear? Fred, I'm talking to you, come away from your Uncle Ted, you know when he starts spouting off about 'big pharma' it's all nonsense."
Truth is, there isn't a "plan" and if there is a "plan" like all battle plans they mostly go out the door when the first shot is fired.
When Harold Macmillan became Britain's prime minister, he was asked what would determine his government's course. He replied with Edwardian languor: "Events, dear boy, events."
You are primed to see connections. We are a narrative, storytelling species. It's in your DNA.
Remember, though, sometimes things just happen that nobody predicts. The fall of the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall, were black swan "tail events" that caught everybody by surprise...including those involved.
You know how in business and government a 5 year plan is useless after a year or two as circumstances change, and thus it needs to be revised? It's the same for these elites. It may LOOK like it was all planned, but only because their end goals of the subjugation of humanity is the same. They throw a lot of darts at the dartboard. Some hit, some don't.
On this, I believe that the Canadian truck protest is an "event" nobody saw coming. This doesn't mean that events can't be manipulated after they occur for advantage. Remember Rahm Emmanuel saying "never let a crisis go to waste", well that happens too.
There are multiple competing groups of elites, who occasionally align to deal with a greater threat (Donald Trump for example). These competing groups want the spoils of government for themselves, and as part of this, they use whole swaths of groups who think they stand for freedom, both left and right. How the fuck do you think it became a big deal that Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity were bemoaning the "death tax" during the W. Bush years when your average suburban Republican gave two shits about it 5 years earlier. And we all know how the left was manipulated to pivot from Occupy Wallstreet to racism as the biggest concern over wealth disparity.
In sum: Not everything is part of a "plan."
It was really nice here for a while from Feb of last year to now, mostly serious minded discussion.
No, it's not predictive programming, just it's funny that what happened in this movie is what's happening in Canada.
Storyline: While driving through the Arizona desert, Albuquerque based independent trucker Martin Penwald - who goes by the handle "Rubber Duck" - along with his fellow truckers "Pig Pen" and "Spider Mike", are entrapped by unscrupulous Sheriff Lyle "Cottonmouth" Wallace using a key tool of the trucker's trade, the citizens' band (CB) radio. Rubber Duck and Cottonmouth have a long, antagonistic history. When this encounter later escalates into a more physical one as Cottonmouth threatens Spider Mike, a man who just wants to get home to his pregnant wife, Rubber Duck and other the truckers involved, including Spider Mike, Pig Pen and "Widow Woman", go on the run, figuring the best thing to do being to head to New Mexico to avoid prosecution. Along for the ride is Melissa, a beautiful photographer who just wanted a ride to the airport. As news of what happened spreads over the CB airwaves, other truckers join their convoy as a show of support. Cottonmouth rallies other law enforcement officers throughout the southwest, they who soon learn that stopping Rubber Duck, the face of the now highly public standoff, is not as easy as shooting him and the truck due to his highly explosive cargo. As the standoff escalates, New Mexico Governor Jerry Haskins joins the fray, he who sees the strong public support for the truckers being something on which he can capitalize politically.
