Jack Smith testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee standing by his claim that his investigation proved “beyond reasonable doubt the Trump engaged in “serious crimes”. Despite the Republican senators being extremely hostile and nasty, Smith calmly answered every question making them look like fools. At one point, Senator Schmitt made a perjury accusation and ended up with egg on his face when it turned out he got his facts wrong. Here is the expression on the face of Republican Senator Katie Britt of Alabama when she realized with utter horror her colleague’s massive blunder. Jack Smith is an incredibly lawyer. He did everything by the book and has an impressive memory for detail. The Republican gangsters couldn’t touch him.

Vietnam is communist but America is just fine with that. And Vietnam tends to align more with the United States as a counterweight to China. But it shows that the "communist" argument is rather hollow.

Really? ICE is black holing people in El Salvador and they are never heard from again. I have heard reports from people who go to China who say the police never bothered them or even looked twice.

Yes, the Epstein class has its own values.

I wonder where they got the idea of "stealing"? Like the colonial Western powers that extracted resources from China for a century.

China has been relatively peaceful in the world compared to the United States which is committed to a path of endless war. The American Empire is destroying itself with wars while the patient Chinese are quietly building infrastructure and global trade networks. In this century, the power is moving to the East.

The similarities to the four-faced Brahma is interesting. They may also have been rejected for their oriental influence.

Contradictions are part of the verbal chatter. 99.9 % of everything you hear on the Internet is wrong. The first stage is to realize the massive deception of the world and it’s powerful pull on one’s attention. Withdraw the senses and go inside.

The Western powers are intimidated by China because of their size. The Western elites don’t want to share power with China but they don’t have any choice. At the same time they fear China, they are also dependent on China for trade. The bulk of the problem resides in the Western mind.

Yes, that might have been Macklemore. "Sheeran and Kraft have apparently seen and raised Macklemore’s $1 million donation to Palestinian relief by donating $2 million each — although it’s unclear exactly to whom". https://variety.com/2026/music/news/robert-kraft-ed-sheeran-donating-4-million-humanitarian-crisis-1236864850/

Sheeran announced he would donate his entire $1 million tour earnings to Palestinian relief organizations. Thus, so far, he has done more than 99.9% of his critics.

The label "cult" is just rhetoric from right-wing populists leveled at a cause that is having some sucess with the public (which, of course, they don't approve of).

In a court of law it takes more than name-calling to present an argument. The Sheeran Group could have gotten an injunction to provide for the Macklemore performance in the tax-funded stadiums, but not the Gillette stadium which was privately funded.

The core argument of the Section 1983 lawsuit would be that the public stadium authority committed viewpoint discrimination, which is a severe violation of the First Amendment. The Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that when a government entity opens a facility for public use (like renting out a stadium for entertainment), it cannot deny access or cancel an event based entirely on the political viewpoint of the performer.
