Right. I saw, too, that there appears to be bipartisan support in Congress for clipping Big Tech's wings--very popular idea. One part is to ban using your platform to disadvantage competitors--lookin' at you, Google.

Ghislaine. I like the "bite", since Ghislaine seems like a distinctly predatory person.

I've never understood how they figure the UBI will work. Is it "We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us"? Who is going to tell them that one has already been tried?

I saw a terrific graphic yesterday at The Saker that explained it. Azovstal is a huge place, and it's said that it was actually designed to survive a nuclear strike. It goes down 6 floors below ground and is heavily reinforced. Putin is said to have nixed plans to take it by storm, due to likely high casualties. They'll isolate and starve them out, is the word.

Mark,

Have you tried to access the SCF lately? I keep getting a message that a sign in is required to bring up the site and when I click back I get this:

"Unauthorized

This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required."

Any idea what might be going on?

Oh, pardon me, I mean The Strategic Culture Foundation. I have always been a casual reader and it's not a go to site, and never registered in order to log-in at their site. It appears either the site administrators or somebody else is asking me to sign on. I found this quite odd.

Tried again today and it doesn't even connect, my search engine (DDG) just sits their looking like it's searching for the site. I suspect, at a minimum, DDG is not allowing me to connect. Censorship.

Thanks. I find that the interweaving helps me, too.
