When witnesses, whistleblowers and accusers die, it’s time to look at whether they have anything in common. Here is a list of some of the recent deaths.

The fact that a NYT article felt the need to mention the "Bermuda Triangle" in this report shows a level of dumbness I'd hope we'd never reach. There is no Bermuda Triangle and that region of the Atlantic is not mysterious. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

Looks to me, based on photos this week, that Trump has severe osteoporosis like his mother. His spine is collapsing and he needs leg braces to walk. The hand discoloration is from regular IV injections of Enbrel.

Reasons to know Trump is lying: 1) He is communicating. 2) If data centers are a geographic benefit to communities, you can be sure they'd be siting and building them in affluent and politically connected environs. Curiously, they're dumped in poorer, less influential places. Go fucking figure.
