No logic needs to be involved when the only goal is to ruin the lives of marginalized people.

The title should be "Trump took in $240 million in bribes under the guise of being for his inauguration".

They probably got sucked in like that reporter. You know how contacts work when you have a high profile government job with a work phone, all sorts of people just get sucked into your contacts like 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.

When it comes to lead, there is no "safe" level of lead in ones body. I think the reason the FDA has a limit is because we know it's everywhere, so having a standard limit lower than where the average person may begin to see noticeable side-effects is important. Although, as everyone's body chemistry varies, what is "safe/tolerable" for one individual may not be for another.

Lead is also one of those things that from research I have read affects children to the greatest degree while their little brains are growing. In children it can cause things like aggression, learning disabilities, and slow growth and development amongst other things.

Also this is only one source of lead children (or any of us) may be absorbing, which would make you wonder about a compounding affect when looked at in aggregate. We know it's in a LOT of chocolate, spices (cinnamon being the current one doing kids in), toys, and environmental things like paint in places like old homes and schools (read a story not long ago about a kid they figured out was being poisoned from lead paint dust on a windowsill at school).

I think it's probably more like they know that a destabilized government makes taking complete control easier. He has Musk and company dismantling all the checks/balances, and his economic yo-yo is working on crippling the masses financially, which in the end means less resistance when he moves against the courts with force instead of social media.

That whole scene could be cut from the film and nothing of value would be lost. If it wasn't for the Tiktok hype, that scene would have been forgotten as filler in an otherwise amusing movie.

“The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.’ “

That kind of shit should get these agents charged with kidnapping. You shouldn't be able to take a "we'll sort it out later" approach to shipping people off to a terrorist prison in a foreign country.

I wish Anonymous or someone could start adding the family of these agents to these scoop up lists, then see how long it takes their family members to come back home. Almost like SWATing, but using all the layers of Immigration against themselves.

That is Trump's whole schtick, he bullshits everyone around him, and if called on it he is all deny/deflect/delay.

An no doubt they would have kidnapped these kids if the school had let them in.

They advertised and argued that they had no proof before, and that when you have no proof they just lie to further their agenda.

Ex. - JD actually said she quiet part out loud when asked about the pet eating myth during the campaign.

The robotic amoral Zuckerberg that we have come to know as a villain, surely not that one!?

And to deny women, minorities, and the poor their right without spelling it out.
