Interesting.
I’m saying it now: Dems need 20+ Republicans to join them in voting to convict Trump. So, the 19 in greatest electoral danger (in the general election) will vote to convict, and it’ll be a huge deal.. Two counts in the charge means they can also switch off: some vote Yes on one, some vote Yes on the other.

This is so good. I hope it’s real.

Hans Eysenck was one of the dubious sources Murray and Herrnstein leaned on in The Bell Curve. Now it turns out Eysenck’s work was riddled with fraud and more than 60 of his papers might be retracted.

Yikes. This seems a bit more than “shots fired”, as they say.

⏲️ As of today, we have about eighteen years to go until the Y2038 problem occurs.
But the Y2038 problem will be giving us headaches long, long before 2038 arrives.
I’d like to tell you a story about this.

Wow. Not a long article, so go ahead and read it (I hope the paywall doesn’t stop you). One line:

«KCXL grabbed attention in 2018 for providing air time to Steve West, a Republican candidate in Clay County for the Missouri House of Representatives who used his “Jack Justice” radio show to discuss what The Star then described as “fanatical conspiracies about ‘Jewish cabals’ that are ‘harvesting baby parts’ through Planned Parenthood, that torture and molest children and that run the Republican Party.”
KCXL’s website today describes itself as an outlet that “will bring you the truth.”
“America is a very different country than it used to be,” KCXL’s website says. “We used to be a country of freedom, job, opportunity, and equality. Now, we are a country that looks down upon traditional values. We are a country that puts its citizens second to citizens of other countries.”»
