There's a kind of aesthetic consistency with Harris going viral with "I'm speaking" (which was gross) and her followers refusing to listen to protests about Gaza. Infantilising

"Infantilising" is a good word. And also an important concept in the social manipulation we call "PR".

"She’s AIPAC’s girl."

Is that any better than the orange imbecile being AIPAC's guy?

100 million from Sheldon Adelson to move Israel's capital to Jerusalem? And now that Sheldon is pushing up matzo balls his wife has offered another 100 million to take over the West Bank? And jared is trying to sell prime beachfront property in Gaza to the highest bidder, as well as selling off the offshore gas resources that he doesn't own?

What we have is a parliament of whores, and only crooks make it to the top.

And now the trump supporters are crowing with delight at RFK Jr throwing his support to trump. People have very short term memories.

israel has some very serious compromising dirt on RFK Jr., and he is following israel's dictates like all of the sheep in congress who applauded natanyahoo 58 times in his recent one hour desecration of the US Congress.

Listen to this interview of RFK Jr.: "From Trump To Biden To The Beast System & All In The Name Of “Safety” & “Success” https://thewashingtonstandard.com/from-trump-to-biden-to-the-beast-system-all-in-the-name-of-safety-success-video/.

Begin at 49:30, where RFK Jr talks about Trump calling him to meet to discuss Vaccine Safety and run a Vaccine Safety Commission, only to not honor his offer after receiving a million dollars from Pfizer for his Inaugural celebration.

One would think that RFK Jr is a man of integrity, based on his work with Water Keeper's Alliance and Children's Health Defense. Someone who cares about humanity.

So how does one square this with his support of the genocide in Israel, much like trump and biden? How does a man of compassion and integrity support the carpet bombing of women and children, the absolute destruction of the entire infrastructure of Gaza, including all schools, hospitals, UN refugee locations, their entire water and electrical system, all the while hearing netanyahoo and his entire administration crowing about the elimination of all Palestinians? And jared kushner trying to sell beachfront property to wealthy zionist jews when he doesn't own any property in Palestine?

Thank you for this. I especially like:

The people of London much resemble

Those empty-headed Athenians.

I could very easily make them tremble,

Those empty-headed Athenians.

A pinch of Bible, a gallon of gas,

And I, or any otherguess ass,

Could bring to our mystical moonlight mass

Those empty-headed Athenians.
