“Because of the fact that Donald Trump is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away his Citizenship. He is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful State of Florida, if they want him. DOG BLESS THIS TIMELINE!”

Hmm, as usual when you flip the names in any Trump accusation it starts to make a lot more sense.

A quotation from Thomas Fuller

If thou trustest every one, thou wilt be known to be a Fool; if thou trustest none, thou wilt be suspected to be a Knave.

Thomas Fuller (1654-1734) English physician, preacher, aphorist, writer
Introductio ad Prudentiam, Vol. 2, # 1989 (1727)

@jbcrawford I feel very privileged to have been able to experience an #IMAX #projection room before they went digital. Just like the 15/70 film projection system, preshow was also a big deal: when the theater chain was later bought out and renamed, the spoken track was updated and they updated the logo which was projected onto the screen, but the expensive and custom laser show was untouched:

It was all because I had arrived _really_ early — I was the only one in the theater — and just _had_ to know the name of the great track the projectionist had chosen to play during the lights-up downtime. I asked someone and they had no idea so they asked the projectionist, who for reasons unknown offered me a private tour of the projection room on the spot, which is a fond memory of mine over a quarter of a century later. He even gave me his business card, which, alas, was lost to the sands of time.

Oh, and that track? open.spotify.com/track/41AYCzv

In his statement, #Trump accused #Zelensky of making “inflammatory” statements that he claimed would prolong the war [#gaslighting #lies #projection]

“If he wants #Crimea, why didn’t they fight for it 11 years ago when it was handed over to Russia without a shot being fired?” Trump [moronically] wrote. “The statement made by Zelenskyy today will do nothing but prolong the “killing field,” & nobody wants that!”

Timothy Snyder: #tRump's Psychological Vulnerability: And the Destruction of the American Economy

"We have thousands of years of political theory and indeed great literature to instruct us on this point: too much power brings out the worst in people -- especially among the worst of people."
