Both Trump and the Shooter surviving would have been best. If the kid was able to say exactly why he did it, then all the conspiracy would die. An Trump would have some uncomfortable questions about his involvement with Epstein. That second part might still happen. But likely won’t.

It doesn’t matter. He was a Sith and a force user, and after the Jedi were purged, he didn’t have to hide it anymore. He would, at least from the general public, but he was served by Vader, who was openly a Sith. Well, not openly Sith, Vader likely never used the word Sith, but he would use the force to choke a bitch.

But prequels are often hamfisted in their treatment of character growth over a time skip. As in, they can’t have any growth or change at all from the end of the prequel to the start of the first movie, even if there’s 20+ years in between the two.

That’s the problem with prequels. They have to set things up, but cannot have any change or character growth, because then they’d fail at being a prequel.

So you have pointless, this is how the thing happened scenes, when no one asked for them.

Okay. rarely you’ll get a prequel that’s good, but those are story driven and often have no effect either way on the later stories except to add a layer of depth.

The Star Wars Prequels, every single one of them, were not that. There was no coherent story in any of them. Just a bunch of “look at the thing” scenes.

You could look at it that way, or…

Revelation 13:3

One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.

Such an unnecessary scene. The scaring and decrepitness of Palpatine didn’t need explanation. Just say that using the dark side of the force is corrosive, and slowly kills the body.

The same with Vader. It shouldn’t have been due to burns and lightsaber injuries, it should have been due to that same corrosiveness.

Latest is that he was a 20 year old registered Republican, who had a social media post about ending the “Evil Epstein Empire”

The social media thing is the only one I’ve not seen fully verified.

Fish with sorrel is specifically listed as a peasant meal in a few different medieval manuscripts.

Part of it is that American libertarianism is a Republican who wants to smoke weed.

As for these specific Nazis, they want the government to stop arresting them when they indulge in their violent hatred of minorities.

They see equality as oppression. Which is also part of the main Republican mindset.

Fish cooked with sorrel and salt. But not as much salt as modern cooks use.

And then some fruits, berries, or veggies if they were in season.

They also had yeast that they could get from the local brewer.

And since bread was highly regulated, it was generally made by a trained baker, who used the highest quality flour they could get… which was still often very coarsely ground with the occasional bit of sand from the grindstones.

But it was leavened, and had salt, because everyone could get salt. The stuff was everywhere. And still is.

Fiscal conservative was code word for undo the New Deal. Just like social conservative is code for undo the Civil Rights Act.

One of ten producers. And the one who was mostly in charge fundraising.

The people who were actually in charge of safety and the guns told Baldwin it was safe.

Here’s a slightly better version that’s just things spelled out in the actual project2025.

The Factorio dev. I’ve heard he’s a shit person but not dove deeper into it.

Edit; did some looking and yeah, he’s a shitbag. He claimed that Statutory Rape was a SJW term, and that teachers should be able to seduce their students as long as they weren’t violent.

Then he used a dev blog to link to a racist misogynistic jackass, and when called out on it (The guy just wanted a disclaimer on the link) Korvex went on a rant about cancel culture and then tried to defend the misogynistic views, claiming that “maybe there’s a reason why there are so few women coders”

Here’s a lawyer’s take on it.

It’s worse than you think.

Again, the context is important. Mostly that the Tunisian military refused to step in and support Wasalo, eventually forcing him to flee.

Asad on the other hand, is still very popular with his own ethnic group, and draws heavily from them to staff his military. Iran’s help just made things worse.

Commanding the military is one of the examples Roberts gave as an always Official act that comes with complete immunity. It was talked about very briefly in the decision, and expanded upon in the dissents because the dissents pointed out that using seal team 6 to kill Americans is now completely legal.

The lander did have a stage separation though, It left the landing gear and motor on the moon, and the accent stage took it back into lunar orbit.

Legally, at this point, Kamala is the only person who can take over Joe’s election war chest.

And remember, laws still apply to democrats, so we’re kind of fucked.

The start of the Syrian civil war had nothing to do with anyone except the Syrian people being pissed off at living under the most restrictive police state in the Arab world. There were protests after a mass arrest and subsequent torture of 15 teenage boys who had spay-painted some anti-government graffiti on some walls around the city.

Assad cracked down on the protests hard, which led to people saying, “fuck this shit, time for a revolution”.

Iran started helping Assad, and then the US started helping the rebels. And yeah it’s a shit show now. But no, it would have kicked off without outside help.
