“The findings…. have not yet been peer-reviewed.” So this article is just a fluff piece.

YOU DON’T GET IT. When you open with the LIES, you leave THAT LIE as the circulating sound bite, online and in people’s minds. The puppeteer lies, and you repeat the lie… your counter statement does NOT linger in anyone’s mind, sarcasm, irony, & counter points DON'T outweigh the lie you open with.

“... the madness gripping leadership in Congress and the White House is mobilizing the silent majority to get loud. The hapless demolition of government institutions, that serve vital public interests from national security to food safety and environmental protections, has real-life ramifications."

So missing the point. Our leaders have literally sold their souls and our nation to the devil. Tragic. Shameful. Sadly, popular opinion and facts are dust in the wind - the devils just don't care. World destruction is their delight.

And NEVER repeat the lies, that just strengthens them. Sarcasm and irony do not weaken lies. Make the truth the soundbite that opens and closes your statements, keep them short and focused.

Don’t repeat the negative trash talk, that empowers the radical extremists. DON’T REPEAT THEIR WORDS, that gives them control of the messaging. JUST STATE YOUR MESSAGE so that is what remains in people’s minds.

First: stop repeating all the lies. Quoting lies IS lying and the media are guilty. It is weaponized language, attacking the nation.

Susan Louchen, Language Therapist @keytoreading.bsky.social · 12/02/2025
EVERY TIME YOU REPEAT THE LIES YOU STRENGTHEN THEM. Opening with the lie is the soundbite that lives. Sarcasm, satire, or old-fashioned framing of "both sides" always undermines truth. There is no debate. Just state what is happening.

Most university professors of "education" HAVE NO IDEA how the structure of English works, nor the pace of instruction needed for mastery. It is a top down problem. Teaching reading effectively to all is a SKILL and takes TIME. THE PROBLEM is incompetent university education departments.

The horizontally orientated image has been taken at ground level. In the background is a beautiful blue sky with white puffy clouds, and snow capped, treed mountains. In the foreground a Palomino horse lays flat on the ground, his four feet pointing towards the camera. Behind the Palomino, three additional horses can be seen: peeking out from behind the palomino’s shoulder can be seen the top of the head of a white horse, also laying down; a dark brown horse lays in sternal recumbency; a chestnut horse stands guard over the sleeping horses. The horses appear to be in a sandy paddock, and a wooden fence is in the distance behind the horses. The image conjure up feelings of comfortable and natural living for horses.
