re: AI PAC Influence

Because the buyer of these politicians has been playing both sides. If you do some research, you’ll notice the same group has done this since the beginning of recorded history
If they were serious about making elections fair, they would just add this to the SAFE Act
Well, there goes passing the SAFE act. There are only 53 R senators. If turtle is incapacitated and Murkowski and Collins vote No, which they probably will, there will not be enough votes to pass period. This is probably their plan anyway
It depends on who is doing the testing. As a starting point, those doing the testing should be politically and ideologically neutral in regards to the subject and should not be able to benefit in any way from the results saying one thing or the other. Then, as long as best practices in scientific research are adhered to, i would trust the resulting data. If the data is analyzed and interpretated objectively, I would accept the results. If subjectivity is involved in any part of the process, I don’t consider it a valid test.
I think scientific studies completely absent of p-hacking are rare. Tests are manipulated to validate the ideological beliefs of the tester.
I know I sound like a pessimist but I’m not. I just don’t have much faith in the honesty of people. I am an idealist who lives in reality. I am fully aware that my expectations aren’t reasonable.

No, i am blaming the study itself. I am blaming the psychology dept who did the study. I take issue not with their data of 2% of psychologists handling most of these cases, which i am sure is not accurate anyway. I take issue with their accusation that psychologists are being “shopped” and the results are being manufactured or dreamt up. I take issue with their stated conclusion of the obtained data. I’m not that poor of a communicator and you’re way too smart to misunderstand what i’m saying.
I am talking about those who conducted the study. They make the determination that since 2% of the doctors handled most of the cases, the doctors are being “shopped” and helping create the cases. It is far more likely that these are specialists for that type of trauma and i ‘d bet that the other 98% of psychologists are wholly dismissive of claims of satanic cult abuse. Like i said, pay attention to how many psychologists are implicated in the Epstein files.
I discredited your source, and I stand by the fact it is disingenuous to post the details of a study discounting accusations of child abuse by a Democrat political operative posing as an educator.

Who else has confirmed this? What liberal cesspool are they a professor at? I guarantee you studies have been done that confirmed the rampant existence of child abuse. These studies will never be made public. The person conducting the study simply modifies how the questions are asked until they get answers they can use as support for whatever propoganda they’re trying to spew.

The conclusions they drew from their research could just as likely indicate that 2% of the psychologists out there are honest and/or not protecting pedos. Every profession has specialties within specialties. All of them. Psychology is no different. That is the far likeliest reason.

I can’t speak to your last statement, not sure what you’re saying. What i’m saying will happen is psychologists beholden to the Democrats will perform corrupt, fictional diagnoses of their political enemies. The victims of this will be incarcerated and discredited all at once. Subsequent “evaluations” will be just as corrupt and support the findings of the initial exams.

Understand that unlike other doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists rely solely on their subjective expertise. There is no objective meansor data by which to make a diagnosis. Their “diagnoses” are nothing more than educated guesses based on opinion. The only reason people think MN Daycare is filled with fraud and abuse is because they haven’t looked into mental illness. And the only reason they haven’t done that is because its subjectivity makes it unprovable. And therein lies the danger
It depends on the credibility of the messenger. Personally, I first ask myself “Does the messenger stand to benefit financially or professionally for his/her position on the matter?” If the answer is yes, and it is definitely yes in this case, you owe it to yourself to do some independent research on the subject you want an answer for.
I’ve done plenty of research on the subject myself and i realize the atrocities people are capable of. Besides, it doesn’t take a genius to know that the guy heading up the Psychology dept at UC Davis is beholden to the Democrat party
Your argument is disingenuous. You are citing a study done by one of the most most liberal, left-wing colleges on planet earth, not to mention the fact that the psychology/psychiatry fields are absolutely dominated by liberal, left-wing doctors and so called “experts”. Take note of how many child psychologists are being/will be exposed as child rapists and worse in the Epstein files. Much like law, almost the entire psychology profession has been taken over by scumbags with no moral code.

Mark my words, in the next few years, you will see the psychology and psychiatry fields weaponized by the Democrats/socialists. People have no idea of the enormous amount of power that doctors in these professions wield. This is likely to occur after the Dems get their majority back, solely due to stealing the elections. It will happen exactly like it did in the media and legal fields, as their operatives are already in place.

re: Bluegill and Crappie Lures?

Posted by RandRules on 2/2/26 at 5:55 pm to
Ive always heard color matters too and the people I’ve heard it from are respectable crappie anglers. Not sure why it doesn’t matter on the lakes I fish, maybe because they’re private.
I catch over 500 crappie a year in very large lakes. Here is what i’ve learned:

-2 lures that work best for me are Bobby Garland baby shad on a 1/16 or 1/32 oz jighead or Roadrunner. Bait type/profile does matter some, but not that much. Lure size matters- err on the side of having a smaller bait

-sometimes you have to fish painfully slow to get bit

-color doesn’t seem to matter all that much. Ive spent countless hours testing this by trolling color variations of the same baits and one color never gets hit more than the others

-Depth is key. If you can find what depth theyre at (this changes constantly) and keep your lure in that zone, you will probably catch them.

-sometimes they just don’t want to bite, not sure why. I always catch the most fishing right before a front moves in.

Keep in mind these are private lakes. I know nothing about public lakes and rivers. Hope it helps.
THIS MATTERS! How is this not being talked about more?

How does the POTUS’ authority over federal funding work though? Is it just veto power that has been granted over spending that relates to the executive?
You should have put this document side by side with other one for clarification. That is pretty damning evidence

People somehow do not understand that the only solution to all these problems is massively lowering spending through program cuts and a reduced budget, which Trump has not done and will not do.

I believe that if they ever did a real study on government spending, they would find that 50% of spending is lost to waste, fraud, and abuse. That 50% is then used directly against your interests. Government will never solve any of these problems, IT IS THE PROBLEM.
How are judges assigned to specific cases? Who makes this determination?
The real question that should be asked is why do the Republicans not stop it. It could easily be mitigated through drastic cuts in spending, yet there are none
If you already knew that and didn’t have to look it up, I yield to your knowledge of history. You’re right but with exception of 22nd, the others were a long, long time ago. I guess my point is that it’s not hard to see why we have all these problems, and how they’ve gotten worse over time.

Progressive democrats set a goal, deliver a unified message that works toward that goal, and accomplish said goal. It’s a lot like Saban’s Process, an effective and proven strategy. The Republican party does nothing because it was infiltrated by Progressives long ago.

I will be shocked if they repeal the 17th, but it may not make much of a difference, as the damage has already been done. Besides, the two parties already seemingly choose their leadership roles according to who is the biggest scumbag.
If elections weren’t rigged, time wouldn’t be an issue. I believe outright cheating is why the pendulum always swings the other way. I also believe most incumbent Republicans are complicit.

Unless federal law is enacted that both requires proof of citizenship via ID and makes mail-in ballots obsolete, elections will be stolen. Trump needs to take a step back from everything else and focus on voting laws. The vast majority of Americans want this, and the Democrats don’t have any sane argument to stand on.
Looking back through US history at almost every event that constituted the passage of landmark legislation, i.e. bills that had significant national implications and future impact, I noticed one common truth: The amendment, bill, or law was created and pushed by Progressive Democrats. This amendment is no different. We are but sheep being lead to the slaughter under the pretense of rigged elections
Fact: You will never find a Democrat that is secretly a Republican, but it’s common for Republicans to secretly be Democrats. Most politicians have but one primary goal: enrich themselves. The Democrat’s policies are outright fraud and theft, enabling them all to get rich. The Republican’s policies mostly do the same, except the riches are hidden in altruistic causes. Politicians do not support policies that hurt their own pocketbooks.

I know I’m beating a dead horse but the only way to fix any of this is to reduce spending. When government spends money, most if it is wasted.
