Twitter is such a cesspit. **nononono*

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I haven't liked the news for a while, but the (leftist/bot/paid communist) comments on the twitter threads are the worst of human effluent.

Like those commercials said. "A mind is a terrible thing to waste".

Former top military brass question 2020 election result, Biden’s health
NY Post, May 12, 2021

More than 120 retired generals and admirals have published an open letter questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election as well as President Biden’s fitness to be commander-in-chief.

The letter, which was first reported by Politico, bears the heading of a group calling itself “Flag Officers 4 America” and claims the United States “is in deep peril” and Americans are “in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776.”

Among the letter’s 126 signatories are retired Rear Adm. John Poindexter, who spent a year as national security adviser under President Ronald Reagan and was convicted of lying to Congress and obstructing the congressional investigation of the Iran-Contra affair (the conviction was later reversed), and retired Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, who spent five years as deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence under President George W. Bush and is now executive vice president of the Family Research Council.

“Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the ‘will of the people’ our Constitutional Republic is lost. Election integrity demands insuring there is one legal vote cast and counted per citizen,” the letter reads before going on to accuse critics of voter ID laws of engaging in a “tyrannical intimidation tactic.”

Later in the letter, the signatories say Biden’s “mental and physical condition … cannot be ignored.”

“He must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere, day or night,” it says. “Recent Democrat leadership’s inquiries about nuclear code procedures sends a dangerous national security signal to nuclear armed adversaries, raising the question about who is in charge. We must always have an unquestionable chain of command.”

The letter touches on a number of controversial issues, including coronavirus restrictions (which it describes as “population control”), relations with China, the Iran nuclear deal, and the Keystone Pipeline. It also accuses lawmakers of using the military “as political pawns” in the wake of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

The letter has been met with an outcry from former military leaders.

I see that everybody is comparing Joe Biden to Jimmy Carter. It would seem to me that is very unfair to Jimmy Carter. Jimmy mishandled crisis after crisis, but Biden has CREATED crisis after crisis. First there was the Biden Border Crisis (that he refuses to call a Crisis), then the Biden Economic Crisis, then the Biden Israel Crisis, and now the Biden Gas Crisis. Joe Biden has had the worst start of any president in United States history, and someday, they will compare future disasters to the Biden Administration—but no, Jimmy was better!
