Woke politics are bankrupting America.

@Kwek00
An academic setting is a place or type of surroundings where studying and thinking take place, such as a R & D facility of a bio-pharmaceutical company or a dicastery responsible for dealing with questions on doctrines of religious faith.


There is no better understanding of anything. You either get it right once and for all or you keep researching and examining till the end of time.

@sree251 The NIH, shouldn't be too worried about the doctrines of religious faith... And yes. It's also broader then R&D of a company. An academic setting means that you publish your work and let it get peer reviewed, so that other people that study on the same field can give their imput and validate the process and the reasoning that leads to a conclussion. This can be done by R&D, think tanks and the university.


There are intervalls, that the best knowledge we have, is proven to be wrong further along the line. That's "okay" btw. It's okay to be wrong, it's not okay to actively be wrong in favor of some religious or ideological stance (aka dogmatic). That's why I'm stressing the academic enviorment.

But the NIH, are people that we put in place to do that work for us. And politicians should make their policies accordingly. Because people just don't have the time OR the knowledge to do all that work for their own.

@whowasthatmaskedman it was Cheney’s companies doing all the food service, laundry services and just about everything contractors were needed for in Iraq during the the war there. When he was still Vp at the time. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think he put all his companies in his wife’s name. I can’t remember

@specman I am sure putting all his companies in his wifes name was enough to be sure not a single contract was awards favorable status, or not given the tightest oversight..😷

@specman It doesn't matter. He still stood to benefit. Putting the businesses in his wife's name should be considered an arm's length transaction, and he should have been locked up. But of course, different rules for the rich and powerful.

@LordShadowfire In this case, I meant Biden's administration was just throwing huge amounts of money at every cause.

Electric vehicles, trying to ban gas stoves for electric stoves, and it wasn't just the causes, but the huge amounts they were throwing for every single cause.

I really think normal minded Biden would of been more selective.

But they seemed to try to hit every thing all at once, totally inclusive to all causes... which there just isn't the resources to do all causes all at the same time.

@sstronaut Well, I'm glad I asked. By the way, the actual definition of woke is a little more restrictive.

@sstronaut says NOPE!! Wrong by a factor of TWO!!

This data is from six months ago; the last six months aren't going to double Biden's deficits.


● President Trump approved $8.4 trillion of new ten-year borrowing during his full term in office, or $4.8 trillion excluding the CARES Act and other COVID relief.
● President Biden, in his first three years and five months in office, approved $4.3 trillion of new ten-year borrowing, or $2.2 trillion excluding the American Rescue Plan.
● President Trump approved $8.8 trillion of gross new borrowing and $443 billion of deficit reduction during his full presidential term.
● President Biden has so far approved $6.2 trillion of gross new borrowing and $1.9 trillion of deficit reduction.

@jehova The two biggest egos in America in the same room, breathing the same air..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman i know itll be amusing at the least.

@jehova Musk seems to be someone who is good at ideas and start ups, but he's not a manager, he's not capable of actually running a business. Twitter / X has demonstrated this. Like in his previous Presidency whoever follows is going to have a massive job in putting things right.

@whowasthatmaskedman And had the NFL -- I mean Gladiators -- to distract the other classes.

@dancingtongue With Subway providing the bread..(If you can call that bread)😷

@CountScrofula I dont know why you are concerning yourself with this guy. First, there is the "woke" thing. The very definition of "woke" is to be aware and informed and the guy is claiming both are bad. The first President to try to make a virtue of not being informed was George W. who needed 9/11 to save his @$$. And while Trump can see Elon as a useful Ally and rich friend, lets not forget Elons political history is one of convenience. And he is way smarter thanTrump. I wouldnt put it past him to burn down the swamp to clean out the gators. And a govt efficiency Czar is the perfect location. What does it matter to him if 20 million Americans die in the process of saving the nation? Everyone is going to blame Trump anyway.. My advice is grab a seat a safe distance away and watch him set fires..😷

@LordShadowfire
You prefer Kamala because you can deal with her. She is within your grasp.
