I just read that one in three grown men say they haven't read a single book in the last year.
Have you?

> “The US has delivered 90,000 tons of bombs, guns, and other military equipment to Israel since October 7, 2023, to support the genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, according to numbers from the Israeli Defense Ministry. The Defense Ministry said Tuesday that the 800th plane carrying US weapons arrived in Israel in the morning, and 140 ships have also delivered US equipment in the nearly 600 days since October 7.”

Ukraine targets Russian airfields in major drone attack
The Security Service of Ukraine conducted a large-scale operation targeting four Russian military airfields on Sunday, an SBU source confirmed.

The 14th Amendment has replaced the original US Constitution, for the Left and the Right.
Few people know that the 14th Amendment was never legally ratified.
"If you could get rid of one Amendment that has really upset the original federal republic it is the 14th Amendment."
"You get the elevation of the federal judiciary to a position that it never should have had through the 14th Amendment."
Something like the 14th Amendment was proposed at the Constitutional Convention and the Founders rejected it outright.

> It’s worth nothing that our American ancestors lived without income taxation and the IRS for more than a 100 years. That’s because they knew that an income tax and an IRS to enforce it were antithetical to the principles of a genuinely free society. They understood that anyone who lives under a government that wields the power to seize their income is a serf, not a genuinely free person. Only a person who is free to keep everything he earns and decide for himself what to do with his own money can genuinely be considered free.

> We all know what will happen. The IRS will come after him with a vengeance. They will have him indicted by a federal grand jury. A warrant will be issued for his arrest. Interpol will be notified. As soon as the Pope visits a country that is a loyal member of the U.S. Empire, he will be taken into custody and quickly extradited to the United States, where he will be prosecuted, convicted, and incarcerated for daring to not fund the U.S. Empire with a portion of his income.

> In 2014, the Senate Intelligence Committee finally released a 600-page summary of its report on the CIA torture regime. CIA abuses included death resulting from hypothermia, rape-like rectal feeding of detainees, compelling detainees to stand long periods on broken legs, and thrashing them to stay awake for seven days and nights straight. In some cases, interrogators didn’t know the language of the person they were questioning so they compensated by beating the hell out of them. Psychologists aided the torture regime, offering hints on how to destroy the will and resistance of prisoners. Many detainees were innocent but that didn’t save their skin.
