Indeed.
It doesn't stop until WE stop it. Period. So it might be wise to buckle up for a rough ride.

Robert Reich's vision of just about anything substantive is "dangerous nonsense." Why does anyone even still care about anything this Clinton administration reject has to say? Leave this dinosaur in the dim, forgotten past where he belongs.

ALANA MASTRANGELO 11 Apr 2022
Pop star, Joe Biden Presidential campaign surrogate, and climate change hardliner Lizzo posed in a tiny thong, showing off her buttocks while boarding another private jet on Sunday.
Lizzo posted a video to her 12 million Instagram followers that showed her boarding a jet clad in an outfit that put her entire behind on display. The grammy-winner tweeted Monday about being in New York City to host Saturday Night Live.

Who's worse--the guy who posts the wall of cellulite or the three people who repost it by quoting it?
Once you know it's there, you can scroll past it. But no. Surprise!
At least AF is obeying the Golden Rule. This is how he wants to be treated. He likes looking at hips that scrape both sides of the Lear Jet hatch on the way through.

I shared ^that speech with a friend of mine that thinks "medicare for all" is a good idea and who likes Robert Reich. He kept asking me "Was it taken out of context?" Not. It certainly was not.

And they applauded.
Here's what government run healthcare will get you:
1 - You young healthy people, expect to pay a lot more. Yaaayyyyy!
2 - You old people...foad already, you cost too much money to keep alive. Yayyyyy!
3 - And across the board, we won't be able to innovate new treatments, so all of you in middle, will probably live shorter lives than your parents. (Which is now happening). Yayyyyy!
Who the fuck are these walking dead????

Oh, yeah? Well ... take this, you edge-posting
Did a Bird Poop on Biden?
Something fell on the president's shoulder. Was it bird poop?
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/did-a-bird-poop-on-biden/
Dan Evon (13 April 2022)
Claim
A video shows bird poop falling on U.S. President Joe Biden's shoulder during an event in April 2022.
Rating
Miscaptioned.
Origin
On April 12, 2022, a video went viral on social media that supposedly showed bird poop falling onto U.S. President Joe Biden’s shoulder as he was speaking at an event in Iowa. We examined that video and photographs from the event, and collected statements from White House officials and journalists.
Here’s what we learned: What landed on Biden’s lapel was more likely a corn byproduct than bird poop.
Biden was talking about the Environmental Protection Agency’s plan to issue a waiver to allow for the production of E15 (a mixture of gasoline and ethanol) in an effort to lower gas prices, when something wispy and white fell on his left shoulder. A video of the incident quickly went viral on Twitter as many users assumed that a bird had pooped on the president:
But was that really bird poop? Here’s what we’ve been able to find out.
Biden Was Standing Next to Piles of Processed Corn
Biden was speaking at POET, a bioprocessing and manufacturing plant in Menlo, Iowa. We have not been able to determine the specific facility in which Biden was speaking, but it’s important to note that this was an indoor event (see photo below).
Furthermore, Biden was standing directly beside a giant pile of processed corn. In fact, photographs from the event show that corn was actively falling on this pile during Biden’s speech:
The above-displayed photograph, taken by Mandel Ngan and available via Getty Images, was captioned: “A mound of processed corn is seen in the background as US President Joe Biden announces steps to ease rising consumer prices at POET Bioprocessing in Menlo, Iowa on April 12, 2022.”
Clay Masters, a reporter with Iowa Public Radio, captured additional photos of the scene before Biden’s speech.
It certainly seems plausible that what fell onto Biden was a piece of some sort of corn byproduct and not bird poop.
The White House Says ‘Corn’
Shortly after this video went viral, White House communications director Kate Bedingfield posted a message on Twitter stating that it was corn, not bird poop, that fell on Biden’s shoulder.
Bedingfield said: “If you guys knew your way around a corn silo at all, you’d know it was corn.”
Justin Sink, Bloomberg’s White House correspondent, came to the same conclusion, writing: “It was bits of corn flying around from the corn silo; the event was indoors.”
Iowa’s Des Moines Register also reported that Biden’s jacket was blemished by what he called “distillers grain,” not bird poop.
But it wasn’t a “feathered fiend” relieving itself as characterized by the Daily Mail, a British tabloid. While there were birds in the “giant barn” where Biden spoke, according to a Des Moines Register photographer who was in the event in Menlo, Iowa, the substance that stained Biden’s jacket was in fact distillers grain.
Distillers grain is “a co-product of the ethanol production process,” according to the Iowa Iowa Corn Growers Association. The grain was piled 20 feet high at the site of Biden’s speech.
The Photo Record
We examined photographs from Reuters, The Associated Press, and Getty Images to get a closer look at this corn/bird poop. Upon closer examination, the “bird poop” appears to be somewhat yellowish in color (like corn) and looks more like dust (i.e., from corn processing) than a liquid (i.e., bird poop).

Damn, that Corn Pop is a bad dude. Good thing my leg hair raised up and vanquished him to the land of Winds and Ghosts.
Seriously though...think about how much better we'd all be off if "journalists" spent half as much energy sussing out Biden's Ukraine corruption, Fed Reserve shenanigans or Fauchi the Fraudulent's misdeeds, just to name a few issues, instead of proving it was corn shit and not bird shit, that shit on the Shithead.
