  1. Does Qatar ring any bells? How about the UAE? How about Saudi Arabia? You need details?
  2. Why do you say it's more likely? Predictions from climate scientists about the rapid warming of the seas and land have been borne out by reality. The scientists who disputed this fact and who repeatedly predicted declines, have been proven wrong time and again.
  3. Mass coral bleaching is becoming more frequent as the world warms. Before the 1990s, mass bleaching was extremely rare. That changed in 1998 with the first major event, followed by another in 2002. Back-to-back bleaching events occurred for the first time in 2016 and 2017. Since then, bleaching has struck the Great Barrier Reef in 2020, 2022, 2024, and again this year. The impacts of this year’s bleaching event will be revealed following the next round of surveys. The time between these events is shrinking, giving corals less time to recover. Cyclones and crown-of-thorns starfish are also continuing to cause widespread coral loss. https://www.aims.gov.au/information-centre/news-and-stories/worlds-biggest-coral-survey-confirms-sharp-decline-great-barrier-reef-after-heatwave In addition, as the article points out, when coral reefs do recover, it's mostly the fast growing kind, which also dies quickly when faced with marine heatwaves.
  4. Please share with us the evidence. With links.
  5. Just because the Trump DOJ repeatedly gets castigated by judges for dishonesty is no reason to believe its claims over those of the NY Times...oh wait a minute...
  6. I can't believe how clueless you are as to ask this question. Do you have any idea why this is clueless? Do I really need to inform you?
  7. For the record? Do you have any clue as to how laughable this is as evidence? And what foreign despots were showering money on the Bidens? Please, share their names with us.
  8. Another disappointment is awaiting you. So many disappointments in so little time.
  9. Bringing a scientific approach to philosophy does not make philosophy a science. Their is a huge amount of correspondence between Heidegger and Arendt that shows the attachment was mutual. Give up your moronic sexism which is thoroughly refuted by the evidence. Jews had their own courts? Official courts under the law? Or just religious courts to settle disputes among Jews over matters that weren't criminal. Actually it was Lise Meitner, a Jewish scientist, who shared credit with Hahn for his major discoveries, who figured out that what Hahn had achieved was fission. Not Hahn. She had to do that from America because she had fled Germany. Strassman, another brilliant German scientist who worked closely with Hahn on his work, was fired from his position because of his anti-Nazi beliefs. And your evaluation of scientists is just anti-semitic BS. Trying to downgrade the achievements of Einstein, among others, is just nuts. What's more, giving credit to the Nazis for the work of Heisenberg is more B.S. He published his great work in 1927. How can the Nazis claim credit for that? The Nazis turned on their fellow Germans murderously. Tens of thousands of non-Jewish political opponents of the Nazis were murdered by them. And more of your academia craziness. "Jews suckling at the teat of American academia"? What does that even mean? Jews are an integral part of American academia. Do I really need to list how many Jewish-American scientists have won Nobel prizes in the sciences? I guess I do. Biology, Medicine, and Physiology Baruj Benacerraf: Received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1980 for his work on the major histocompatibility complex. David Baltimore: Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1975 for his work on the interaction between animal viruses and the genetic material of the cell. Baruch Blumberg: Won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1976 for his discovery of the Hepatitis B virus. Gerty Cori: The first American woman to win a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (1947), for her work on the Cori cycle. Gertrude Elion: Received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988 for her contributions to drug development. Eric Kandel: Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2000 for his work on the physiological basis of memory. Arthur Kornberg: Won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1959 for his work on DNA replication. Fritz Lipmann: Received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1953 for discovering coenzyme A. Daniel Nathans: Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1978 for his work on restriction enzymes. Rosalyn Yalow: The first American-born Jewish woman to win a Nobel Prize in science (1977), for the development of radioimmunoassays. Howard Temin: Won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1975 for his work on reverse transcriptase. George Wald: Received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1967 for his work on vision. H. Robert Horvitz: Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2002 for his work on programmed cell death. Chemistry Alfred G. Gilman: Won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1994 for his work on G-proteins. Richard Axel: Received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2004. Michael Brown and Joseph Goldstein: Shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1985. Physics Murray Gell-Mann Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1969 for his work on elementary particles. Richard Feynman: Awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965 for his work on quantum electrodynamics. Robert Hofstadter: Received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1961 for his research on electron scattering. And these are Jews from the Postwar period who did their research in America. And if you were to look at the roster of researchers at MIT, Harvard, and other leading scientific research centers, do ya think you might find a hugely disproportionate number of Jewish names as compared to their percentage of the population?
  10. No one has traced a single dollar to joe biden. Donald Trump has hundreds of LLC's. There's nothing inherently criminal about LLC's. Remember Devon Archer? Hunter Biden's partner who Republicans were salivating over because they just knew he was going to blow the lid of the alleged scandal? He explicitly said Hunter Biden told him he was leading these lowlifes on and making them believe he had pull with his father but in reality he had none. And now this criminal who lied about the Bidens is effectively free.
  11. FBI Informant Who Lied About Bidens Quietly Released From Jail Sparking Trump Pardon Fears Alexander Smirnov was quietly furloughed from prison months ago An FBI informant convicted of lying to the Bureau about a fake bribery scheme involving the Bidens has been quietly released from prison just months into a six-year sentence—raising concern he could be pardoned by Donald Trump any moment. Alexander Smirnov, who has multiple business ties to Trumpworld, was sentenced on January 8, days before Trump became president. He had pleaded guilty to fabricating a story that former President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, had received millions in bribes from Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, as well as to a $2 million-plus tax evasion offense. https://jacquelinesweet.substack.com/p/fbi-informant-who-lied-about-bidens FBI informant jailed for Biden bribe claim released on medical furlough: lawyer The FBI informant who set off a firestorm by alleging that Joe and Hunter Biden took $10 million in bribes has been released from prison on medical furlough, his attorney tells The Post. Alexander Smirnov pleaded guilty in December and received a six-year prison sentence for fabricating the story about the then-US president as well as a separate charge of tax evasion... Smirnov, 45, had been incarcerated at a federal facility in Los Angeles and Chesnoff did not share the precise date of his release, which was first-reported by independent journalist Jacqueline Sweet. https://nypost.com/2025/11/07/us-news/fbi-informant-jailed-for-biden-bribe-claim-released-on-medical-furlough-lawyer/ Maybe he's rooming with George Santos?
  12. You're correct. My error. Thanks for the correction.
  13. Outlays is spending. 2019 and 2020 were the years of the budget surplus. In both those years spending exceeded 20%.
  14. Not surprising that you don't understand the significance of margins.
  15. Which midterms do you think they were making predictions for? To quote you, You've got nothing.
  16.

  17. You claimed that "sending" as a percentage of gdp never exceeded 18%? What did you mean by "sending"?
  18. Actually, it's debatable the officer in question even smelled the onions since he lied about being splattered with them.
  19. I assumed you were talking about taxation since you have repeatedly made false claims about how much income was generated by taxation. I could certainly produce a graph that showed spending has often exceeded 18% of gdp.
  20. How does saying your claim about spending, which was that it was never above 18% (if you meant ("spending" when your wrote "sending") jibe with your repeated claims that it's too high.
  21. Not only is that false, but clowns like Alex Jones make a very good living out of them.
  22. No, I don't know exactly what you meant. The only possible other word I came up with was "spending" which would make no sense given your claim that spending is too high. And it's a real crybaby move to blame others for your mistakes.
  23. Do you think that when a real estate developer fails, the buildings that it got built fall down too? And his father was still very active in the business when Trump Tower was built.
  24. What can't be argued against is that Trump destroyed the extraordinarily successful business he inherited from his father. And if you're clueless you can argue that he isn't taking advantage of his office to mint money for his family businesses.
