The Isolated Politics Blurt Thread I: A New Beginning

Here is the bottom line problem.


Fractional reserve lending does not make banks “broke”. 🙄

And anyone who wants to remove deposit insurance is a fool and knows nothing about economic history. It doesn’t protect a poorly managed bank from failing, it protects the people who deposited money in the bank.
 
There’s a continuing series of these videos explaining why former Trump voters aren’t voting for him this time.

 
Politicians generally want to be seen as attractive. While making faces like this:

It screams Southern Heritage.

Another example of why you can't trust 'Pubs.


"As committee chair, Republican Representative Glenn "GT" Thompson of Pennsylvania will lead the lower chamber's efforts in drafting a new Farm Bill, a comprehensive spending package passed every five to six years that directs U.S. food and agriculture policy. Markup of the House draft of that bill is scheduled for Thursday.

In Thompson's draft, the cost of SNAP would be reduced by $30 billion over 10 years by preventing the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) from updating the cost of Thrifty Food Plan—outside of adjustments for inflation—which determines how much money will be doled out through SNAP."


Every five or six years ago was 2018 when:

"The Thrifty Food Plan was updated in 2021 for the first time in decades to factor in real purchasing power. This came on the heels of a directive outlined in the 2018 Farm Bill that directed the USDA to reevaluate the plan, which was developed in the 1960s. This resulted in SNAP recipients receiving an extra $36 per month."

And who was in charge of the House then?


House majority Republican
House Speaker Paul Ryan (R)

Sessions1st: January 3, 2017 – January 3, 2018
2nd: January 3, 2018 – January 3, 2019

'Pubs are like Russians. You can't trust anything they say because they'll often go back on their word and things they supported.
 
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, the judge overseeing former President Trump’s Georgia election interference case, has won his race for reelection, according to Decision Desk HQ.

McAfee fended off a challenge from civil rights attorney Robert Patillo II, retaining his seat on the Superior Court. He’s overseeing a case launched by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) into whether Trump and his allies sought to overturn the Georgia 2020 election results.

Iowa and Missouri: 60 miles of river over 2 states contaminated by fertilizer spill, killing hundreds and hundreds of thousands of fish... close to 1m is the estimate

The New York Times reported that a fertilizer spill in Iowa killed the majority of fish across 60 miles in waters that flow into the Missouri River, resulting in an estimated 789,000 perishing. The spill expanded into both Iowa and Missouri, being seen as an ecological disaster.

The incident resulted from an open valve in a storage tank at NEW Cooperative, an agricultural business. The tank leaked up to 265,000 gallons of liquid nitrogen fertilizer into the East Nishnabotna River, which eventually feeds into the Missouri River.
the extent of the damage done to wildlife made the spill 'one of five largest on record'

people are becoming more and more 'plastic', with plenty of body parts found to contain microplastics.
this new study has implications regarding male fertility

(The Hill) — A new study has found a “pervasive” presence of microplastics in human and dog testicles.

The research, published last week in the Toxicological Sciences journal, found that out of all 47 canine and 23 human testes that were examined, all had a presence of microplastics.
Researchers at Yu’s university in New Mexico collected testicles from autopsies of people aged 16 to 88 and from nearly 50 dogs after they were neutered.
Researchers dissolved the biological issue, and about 75 percent of what remained in their samples was plastic. Most of it was polyethylene, which is used in packaging, bags and many products.
they found a correlation between lower sperm count in the dogs' testicles and the presence of a chemical largely found in pvc piping.

Some Pubs object to men being put in women's prisons. I completely agree, but I don't believe they actually care that much. When Michigan prisoners sued the state for being raped by guards, the state's Pubs voided the lawsuit by passing a law that says prisoners don't have civil rights.

Nanoplastics are a newly discovered problem. Hundreds of thousands of nanoplastic particles in a single bottle of water. Micro cellular - getting in cells and having the cells build structures around them.

Plastics in placentas, testicles, breast milk, blood.

And don't forget about the PFAS!

This is a nightmare.
