We finally got around to watching Disclosure Day.
Overall it's a pretty good movie, but the score was so bad it was distracting.
Anyone else notice this?
Daycares are very profitable in Minnesota. I'm surprised he wants to take such a huge pay cut and work for a government salary.
🇺🇸🇸🇴 Imagine how things are going in Minnesota that a Somali daycare owner just flipped a Republican seat and gave his victory speech in Somali 😳
Abdi Daisane won Minnesota House District 14A.
The crowd at his celebration was almost entirely Somali, and the speech itself stayed in Somali rather than English.
INSANE!

Oh dear, that's not very flattering is it?
Imam Tawhidi: "When I was an extremist, Islamist, fundamentalist, I would only vote left. I saw them as very stupid. I would fear the conservatives, because they come with principles. That is not someone they can brainwash, but the left they have no values and no principles to begin with.
I dare you to find one Islamic extremist that votes for Donald Trump. They would never do it."

Well that happened fast.
🚨 EL-SAYED REFUSES TO BACK SCHUMER FOR SENATE MAJORITY LEADER
Michigan Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed declined to endorse Chuck Schumer for Democratic Senate leader, despite Schumer’s support for his campaign.
“I do believe we need new leadership and I think people are hungry for it,” El-Sayed declared.
The outspoken Israel critic signals growing divisions within the Democratic Party over its leadership and direction.
It's probably nothing.
Just the Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader posting that the US collapse process has accelerated.
I'm sure it's fine.

Congratulations. You know you’ve fucked up when the Ayatollah is on your side.

So what if a Muslim wins an election in America and becomes a congressman or senator? Why is that any different from a Buddhist winning an election?
Because Buddhism is a religion. Islam is a state.
Islam has a population: the ummah. It has a constitution: Sharia. It has courts, criminal law, family law, taxation, rules for minorities, doctrines of war and peace, and a foreign-policy framework governing relations between the land of Islam and the lands outside it.
The ummah is not tied to Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, or any other modern country. It crosses all of them.
Islam's population "Muslims" belong to one political-religious community.
That is fundamentally different from Buddhism.
A Buddhist American may practice Buddhism faithfully, but Buddhism does not give him a second universal political order with its own law, sovereignty, territorial doctrine, and theory of government.
Islam does.
This is why reducing Islam to “just another religion” misses the point.
Muslim officeholders are literally citizens of another existing country, and their loyalties can never be American first, because the two projects are contradictory.
Add to that the religious hatred of Jews in Islam and the special relationship between Israel and America.
A Muslim in a position of power in America, with a religious mandate to hate Jews, will not approach Israel from the perspective of what is in America’s best interest, but rather from the perspective of what Islam commands him to do.

Sometimes, letting Muslim Brotherhood Islamists win elections in the West may be the harshest lesson democracy can teach its own voters. Let people discover the true face of the ideology they voted for: the intolerance disguised as tolerance, the extremism dressed up as progress, and the backwardness sold as a brighter future.
Look at the turmoil in France. Look at the political battles unfolding in Britain, or “Britainstan,” as some now call it. One day, those who voted for extremism may discover that the ballot they cast in the name of progress became a vote against their own freedoms.
The tragedy of democracy is that people sometimes have to experience the consequences of their choices before they understand the value of what they had.
Civilization is easy to take for granted until you realize what it takes to defend it.
Remember when women were panicking incessantly about the US becoming The Handmaid's Tale around Trump's first election?

They won't understand the question. It's too reasonable.
Same questions about @elonmusk - does he buy and rig elections or not?
Quick question to all those who posited that @realDonaldTrump was a dictator who would end democracy, including nearly all of my academic colleagues. Does the drubbing that the Republicans experienced last night via the democratic process suggest that you were right that he is a dictator or were you wrong to make this claim? Did he kill democracy or did he allow it to express itself?

Trump lost the night and still stood taller than the men who beat him. His party took a heavy blow on Tuesday, and he did what few men with that much power ever do: he accepted the result, congratulated his opponents on Fox News, and said he will work with them on immigration. No tantrum, no hiding, no locked door.
Here in the Middle East, we loved every word, because we were raised to believe a real man shakes the hand of the one who beat him and goes back to work. Some will call it weakness. Like it or not, that's your problem.
We stood with him on the good nights. We are not leaving on the hard one.
I will never understand why we have been ignoring these warnings?
Why do we think we know better?
When a Muslim Brotherhood member wins a Senate race, that’s NOT DEMOCRACY; that’s USEFUL IDIOTS hating their own country. When the mullahs in Iran took over, socialists helped them, and later, the Islamists killed them all. This is the most dangerous moment for Western civilization. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is a dark chapter in this great nation’s history.
And as the Bible warns:
“For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” — Galatians 6:7 (KJV)
Be careful what you plant in the name of democracy. You may not enjoy the harvest.
