Well said, Michael! Jews on this site have a special history and know better. I can’t say it as well as has been said and repeated before:

First they came for the Communists

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me

And there was no one left

To speak out for me

~ Pastor Martin Niemöller

Thanks, Charna. It still astonished me to hear things from people like @Lily Steiner, but at least this exercise will improve the logical function of our readership. Tired of the silliness. Amazing that we all put our pants on the same way. Makes me sad.

Charna seems convinced Trump is a pedophile. Don’t know if I’d be embracing her opinions. Are you not astonished to hear that? I won’t engage further till you really can’t help admit your attitude is affecting your rationality.

I said nothing about her "pedophile" claim. I stand on the verified facts in my article. And until you actually click the links and acknowledge they are true, there's no conversation to be had. We must have basic sets of facts in the country. Regardless of opinions. Try it.

Why don't you sit in a 4-Hour session with the guy who molested your daughter and see if you can't pick a pedophile out of a crowd. Normal fathers do not tell the nation that they want to date their daughter. He speaks to the nation as if we're Epstein and we want to hear it, but we don't

I'm just glad there's people like you out there, cuz every time I tell somebody things like that they call me a liar. I just went round and round with somebody this morning and he told me to quit acting like a maggot from 2020 and he was not even a maggot or a Republican. He voted for Harris. I may not have the proof mainly cuz I don't know how to find it or necessarily pass it on, but even the predictions I have made have all come to fruition, including Trump being a pedophile. In the beginning I only said he had all the symptoms of a pedophile. I didn't even know who Trump was before he ran for president. I grew up in the 1% and one of my relatives is a lot like Trump or was. I'm sure they knew each other quite well. I even looked for him on Epstein's list. We used to call him Arnold ziffel the million dollar pig. Including his own children. One's married to a media Mogul and the other is married to an oil Baron. Bill Clinton did a eulogy at his funeral. It's why I use my Hebrew name online and my family's true surname. They got kicked out of Russia at the turn of the 20th century also. What's interesting at this point in time is my grandfather who became the 1%er came here with no birth certificate or anything and didn't even know when his birthday was. We picked a day to celebrate it. It would probably make for a very interesting story if I knew the details, or if he had known the details. I believe he spent his last 10 years in bed all drugged up cuz he felt guilty for being an ass

“So little violence.” 400 convicted of assaulting officers. I’m sure you checked on the video links too. Bye bye. You’re the first to make my morning. Face up to some truth. It doesn’t mean you can’t support Trump. Change your life. Facts. They’ll set you free. Buena suerte.

The stories of these hundreds of people illegally arrested and locked up will start to be told now. You have been totally gaslit as to the actual violence and label of insurrection Only 6 people actually did put hands on law enforcement but the fact that Dems went after anyone at the rally and kept so many locked up for so long is unAmerican. I appreciate the shifts you’ve made and believe you will make many more as Trump implements his policies. I have hope for you.

No gun charges at all because it was not a violent insurrection. One pro Trump person killed is one death an insurrection? Beating of police officers is not documented and death of a police officer was shown to be a lie. Happened a few days later from his health problems. Any other violent insurrections with so little violence but 1500 people illegally arrested? Full video footage finally released to Tucker Carlson and shows a completely different story. Have you watched it? Change your attitude Change your life.
