Blackmail would be my guess.

People question where Epstein got his money-- Russia, Israel, blackmailing rich contacts--The money trail is the way to find the source; and the US Government has the means to do this. If his money came from Russia, it follows that he is a Russia agent.

I've been using the Brave browser for privacy along with a VPN. Which is better QWant or Brave? According to AI, Brave search has a clearer edge due to its independent index and architecture,,,." It looks like Qwant uses Google and Micros0ft to get search results--not so with Brave. Also, I've been using the Ubuntu operating system for many years, so I asked DeepSeek: which is more private, Ubuntu or Windows? It said Ubuntu.

I reported the video to YouTube that it is spam. I got a response from them the next day indicating that they have taken it down. I’ve come across several of these fakes on YouTube, one with Warren Buffet even. There was one just out that claimed that Melania first had sex with Trump on Epstein’s Lolita Express.

This is a high quality fake. spreading disinformation. It's AI generated using the face of a respected lawyer.

If Trump starts a war with Iran and maybe Cuba, he may pull it off. [Tyrant Trump, Dictator for Life] Given that the US Constitution prohibits tyrants, there would be significant opposition movement.

Trump is looking for an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act and bring in federal troops to stop demonstrators. Once he has federal troops on the ground, what would it take for him to invoke the insurrection act on the Congress and the Supreme Court, and use federal troops and ICE agents to go after his political opponents? He would then be a real Facist Dictator.

As I aged, my allergies developed into CSU and CINDU (AI can tell you what they are). The drug I plan on taking is Rhapsido. Insurance will cover about 90% of the cost. I'm scheduled to see an Allergist who can get me this drug.

My heart condition is due to clogged arteries, but nothing serious. I take statins to lower my cholesterol. It’s improving the problem. My main problem is Allergies. It damned near killed me during the Pandemic with anaphylactic symptoms that I managed to will myself out of. But a new drug came out this year that can help me—a 50-50 chance it will. It retails for about $50,000 USD per year— two pills per day. Hopefully this magic pill will make me feel well enough to visit Thailand later this year. I already made reservations. There is a good chance that a change in the environment can improve the allergy problem. I have been to LOS many times but I don’t recall having allergies while there. I may have to move there for health reasons. symptoms of anaphylaxis

Trump is suspending immigrant visas to nationals from 75 countries including LOS. l hope my upcoming trip to LOS is not going to get cancelled because of this.

I was thinking about starting a thread titled ‘Whatever Happened to Flashermac?’ But now we have this sad news. Flashermac was the poster who had the biggest presence on this board. I had lively discussions with him on this forum for many years. RIP

I was puzzled at why you would say such a thing (saddle sniffers). Now I know.

Have you been thinking in the toilet again, Mekong?

I interact with believers all the time so it's normal for me, not "amazing". Most people are NOT atheists. If you are amazed at what is normal...well, let's not go there.

Sorry, I misunderstood your post. But I still think you are a good writer based on my reading your posts over the years.

I’m actually an atheist. That statement is hypothetical. There are still billions of Christians; therefore, it’s not so amazing as you state.

Nice one, Cross. I think you have real talent.

If a person is murdered, is that good because that person is in heaven now? If a rocket blows up soon after liftoff, is that a success because they can learn from their mistakes?

It's all over the news that it's being called a success. It looks like a failure to me and to most people. I heard that Musk lost about $15 Billion recently. He seems out of touch with reality.

Fox's troubles have just begun. Next up is Smarmatic, which is asking more $Billions for spreading Democracy busting lies about them. Also, the shareholders are suing the FOX directors for not doing their jobs. Further, one of it employees is suing for damages. Hopefully, Fox will go out of business.

Aha! That explains some of your behavior on this board. But you are not the only one. The author, Henry Miller, used to write about it: "All my good reading, you might say, was done in the toilet. There are passages in Ulysses which can be read only in the toilet - if one wants to extract the full flavor of their content."

You are also right, Mekong. Nobody is above the law, including immigrants and Trump.
