  1. Hey @CNN- The Assange sham trial is going on right now! You should probably talk about it A LOT since if he’s extradited our 1st Amendment rights will be gone forever and yours too

    1. It is very tragic to watch brave people like Mr Julian Assange, Ms Chelsea Manning, Mr Edward Snowden, Ms Sarah Harrison, Mr/Ms Satoshi Nakamoto, etc. are caught/struggling between the Devil (spies, trolls, thugs, morons, dodgy politicians, etc.) & the Deep blue sea (fear, disease, fascism, injustice, economic depression, etc.).

      However this is Not very surprising since Dr Kaku, Dr Dawkins, Dr Haseltine & the late Prof Hawking have already warned/projected that humanity will face greater & greater hardships+dangers (as it develops to reach Тип 1 status). Unfortunately there is also little/no chance of turning back the clock as the late Prof Sagan (& his team) has estimated/calculated that humanity has progressed pass the Тип 0.7 status. (https://astrobites.org/2016/03/15/classifying-civilisations-an-introduction-to-the-kardashev-scale/)

      In addition, Dr Crabtree & Dr Woodley discovered evidence that with each passing generations, more & more humans are growing/being-born weaker, dumber, slower &/or fearter (genetically/biologically) despite improved/improving food, water, freedom, healthcare, hygiene, nutrition, telecom, internet, education, sanitation, security, infrastructure, IQ, GDP, GNI, PISA, STEM, life expectancy, etc. (https://www.livescience.com/37095-humans-smarter-or-dumber.html)

      To make matters worse, Dr Ward, Dr Brownlee & Dr Kump believe that multicellular species like humans are living in a “temporary golden age” of macro-species (macrobes?) & have uncovered at least 1 more (earlier) Species of Mass Destruction (SMD i.e. a species/lifeform that is/had directly-indirectly cause massive-total destruction/extinction to multiple species/lifeforms). As such it is believed that there are now at least 2 active SMDs on Earth & a 3rd one maybe emerging/evolving/awakening. (https://books.google.com.au/books/about/The_Medea_Hypothesis.html?id=so9ZU88OBrEC&source=kp_book_description&redir_esc=y)

      However, the situation may not be totally bleak/hopeless if Dr Caleb Scharf & Dr Lisa Randall ideas/speculations are right, i.e. quarks, microbes, bosons, prions, viroids, entropy, dark matter, dark energy, etc. are possibly signs of “advance/intelligent” life that are fixing/tinkering nature (or the universe) to make it more habitable &/or less hostile to life. (https://dailygalaxy.com/2019/09/thought-provoking-advanced-life-in-the-dark-side-of-our-universe-weekend-feature/)

      This may explain why some bold people like Dr Noam Chomsky, Dr Grigori Perelman, the late Prof John Nash, the late Prof Yuji Ijiri & the late Mahatma Ghandi have-tried/are-doing their absolute best to make the world a better place (despite the gloomy odds).

      Hopefully cooler heads & saner voices will prevail over the fanatics+hardliners & allow humanity to overcome these great hardships+dangers. May the deaths+sufferings of the innocents be merciful 🙏

    2. @陳J If you went on CNN and said that on TV their heads would explode. I get it though. We are at a crossroad as humans on this planet. The greedy oligarchs can carry on and ruin it for future generations or evolve/change.

    3. @StealieSteve – Your insights are wise beyond words. May you & your love ones stay safe+prepared in this interesting time. 🙏

    4. He should not be fighting extradition to the U.S. He is safer in the U.S than anywhere, inc UK where he’s being tortured. That could NEVER happen in the U.S. Anything happened to him in the U.S. it’d he political h — to pay. He’s a lighting rod here, NO politician or US power actually wants him here!

  2. Well in my opinion young lady, nothing is weak about this. A very brave thing to do in the midst of a challenging time.

    1. @Robert Clawson You’re right, Trump beats Obama. Trump is now complicit and responsible for the deaths of 190,467 US citizens. What a winner!

    2. @Jae Nin I am right, as a leftist Progressive, I hear right through your double speak. You are the lemming. I am calling it straight for everyone while you are a useful idiot. You’re a loser. What BS artist you are. Democratic governors and mayors did the worst job protecting their citizens with lockdowns. Trump has not authority to impose a national lockdown or mask law. Trump polices the international border. Nice try, failure. You suck.

    3. @Jae Nin hahahahahaha Democrats have encouraged & supported the “firery mostly peaceful protests” which has branded them as the party that’s okay with street violence and mob action, as long as it’s in the name of racial justice of these BLM, left supported radicals! OBIDEN blamed the violence on Trump as America watched the LEFTIST mobs attacking the Police, burning down businesses in middle America and accosting people in the streets! America knows these mobs belong to the Democratic Party and that the left liberals cannot denounce BLM cause they are their VOTER base! LIES=MSM=BIGTECH=DEMOCRATS=BLM=DOMESTIC TERROR! Vote Trump 2020!

    4. @Robert Clawson Trump shrugged off responsibility to the State Governors then threatened to pull funding if the Governors didn’t do what he wanted. As for policing the international border, do you mean the 3 miles of wall Trump has built for 15,000,000,000 American tax payer dollars? Or do you mean the fact that nobody in their right mind, or unless they have a death wish, would want to enter the US right now?

    5. @Jae Nin You suck at this. Your boss should fire you. You are absolutely wrong. State governors and mayors are legally responsible for enforcing and lifting lockdowns. US is still #1 in immigration.

    1. Communist dictator killing his own people, but no somehow Trump is important. I see TDS cases are increasing!

    2. You mean like the coup attempt by the DemonRATS by using a fake, phony, and false so called ‘Steel Dossier’ and a Russian collusion hoax? How are thing in China now, troll?

    3. The Dems will be the first ones crying Mail Fraud in November after they were told THIS IS A BAD IDEA. But that’s the whole point now isn’t it?

    4. @Robert Osborn no. Trump is and will cry mail fraud, when everyone knows we have never had problems with the mail. Trump lies, and is a propagandist. He spews lies and racist hatred. Shame.

    5. @Pamela Mattox – Playing the racist card, chump? Here’s a quote from Malcolm X — “The Democrats are more racists than the Republicans”. So much for racism, right dingbat?

    1. @dirty sniper You should tell the troll farm supervisors that that is literally the old Olgino response from 2016. Earn that vodka comrade. Earn it.

    2. @Fletcher Christian it’s clear you don’t like facts and live in a fantasy, nothing has been released from the pentagon confirming it. Their is no reason to end humanity of rumors. But no continue believing in your fantasy

    3. @Fletcher Christian That was before he realized the virus was a Chinese biological attack designed to help Joe Biden in the election…🇨🇳💉😷

    4. @Fletcher Christian “Trump will never be President.” Obama
      “You can keep your healthcare plan if you like your plan.” Also Obama…

    5. @BLM IS THE NEW KKK lastly–leaked GRU documents state 9 out of 10 Russian male trolls have erectile dysfunction…just saying.

    1. @The Shadow Man she was threatened by an aggressive government, and shes a mom so she wanted her kids to be safe. If you were a parent, and your kids had a serious chance of dying, what would you do? educate yourself clown.

    1. Who cares about another MSM distraction? Democrats have encouraged & supported the “firery mostly peaceful protests” which has branded them as the party that’s okay with street violence and mob action, as long as it’s in the name of racial justice of these BLM, left supported radicals! OBIDEN blamed the violence on Trump as America watched the LEFTIST mobs attacking the Police, burning down businesses in middle America and accosting people in the streets! America knows these mobs belong to the Democratic Party and that the left liberals cannot denounce BLM cause they are their VOTER base! LIES=MSM=BIGTECH=DEMOCRATS=BLM=DOMESTIC TERROR! Vote Trump 2020!

  3. Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, the world is with you. Keep fighting the good fight. You are the biggest reason that so many people know about Belarus now. I wish you and your country the brightest of futures.

  4. Heart goes out to the people of Belarus and Ukraine–may you have democracy, and freedom from Russian hegemony! ☠️🇷🇺🏴‍☠️
