> "The War Powers Act of 1973 was the US Congress’ last attempt to restrain the US executive branch from overriding the US Constitution, which requires a declaration of war by Congress before going to war. The executive branch had eased America into a war in Vietnam without Congressional approval.  That Congress did not impeach and remove the president, who had voided his oath of office by his unconstitutional war, was the first sign that America, like the Roman Republic, was transitioning into a Caesarship." -Paul Craig Roberts, ["Will Trump be the First American Caesar?"](https://tinyurl.com/mrxxebd2)

Gotta love when Trump tells it like it is! 😂 I only wish he would also do that about himself. View quoted note →

Interesting. #TodayILearned that the Powerball Lottery has now expanded to include the United Kingdom. But in the UK the prize will be shown in the amount you would receive after taxes, the prize money will have to be received as an annuity and not a lump sum payment, and the ticket prices will be the equivalent of five U.S. dollars versus the $2 ticket price in the United States. #TIL

> "Each subsequent “republic” [of the six American republics] has been a further entrenchment of power, marked by elite capture, crisis-exploited centralization, and the steady erosion of the original decentralized spirit. Principal-agent failures, regulatory capture, and moral hazard aren’t bugs; they’re the operating system." https://tinyurl.com/yrvuzxf3 The US #GovtIsTheProblem

I first heard about Timothy Alberino a few years ago on a podcast. He refers to angels as our "elder brethren" and has some interesting views on extra-terrestrials and other things. Here is an interesting clip of him with Piers Morgan recently: View quoted note →

I have to blame the humans on this one, for allowing the beast to live so long after it first killed people in 2010. God laid down the law right after the Great Flood: > "And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. > > “Whoever sheds the blood of man, > > by man shall his blood be shed, > > for God made man in his own image." --Genesis 9:5–6 View quoted note →
