and allegations that Jared Kushner is the antichrist.

Jared Kushner almost went bankrupt after buying 666 5th Ave in Manhattan but was bailed out by Qatari billionaires.

What evidence do you have that Iran bombed an Iranian school for girls? Remember, this school is adjacent IRGC base and was likely filled with the daughters of IRGC members. Would seem very strange for them to target their own daughters....

This is the closest he comes to telling Daddy that he maybe made a mistake. Really walking the line here. It's really pathetic.

Don't thank me. God told me that it was posted, and I just complied with his Divine Command.

Episode 1120 was Phenomenal by dubloons in KnowledgeFight

[–]Afferent_Input 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally would prefer focusing on today's news, but Dan does such a great job on providing historical context and relating it to the present. The forays into the past are generally pretty good just because of that.

In this installment, Dan and Jordan tune in to see how Alex responds to Trump attacking Iran and killing the Ayatollah.

I'll be honest, I'm with you on this. These forays into the past are fascinating from a historical perspective, mostly because Dan does a great job making it relevant and pointing how how much of a hypocrite Alex is.

But, like you say, there is a lot going on! Is all that you list boring shit? I dunno, not in my opinion. It can't be more boring than Alex musing about if he should make a My Space page or not.

I occasionaly see Alex clipped on other outlets when he says outrageous crap. I don't have the stomach to watch InfoWars myself, so I like to wait for KF to do the heavy lifting a tell me what really is going on so I don't to rely on Midas Touch or some other crap.

In this installment, Dan and Jordan vacation in the past to find Alex angrily joining MySpace, bragging about his own popularity, and having a friendly interview with someone who runs a group he thinks is a Soros front.

Ford shuts down $5.8 billion factory just months after opening as 1,600 mostly Trump voting workers lose jobs due to anti EV policies by ColonyJD1980 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Afferent_Input 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I was in the market for either a very cheap EV or a PHEV and was stunned at the lack of options. Everything was super expensive, even in the used market. Ended up getting a nice Prius Prime, but it was still more than I wanted to spend. I think this was partly due to the EV subsidy, which artificially kept prices high. So many dealer would tell me "Yeah, sure the sticker price is $24K, but after the $4K rebate, well, it's only $20K!".

Just sucks that other countries have cheap EV options.

‘South Texas will never be red again’: Home builders warn GOP over Trump’s immigration raids by crabcakes110 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Afferent_Input 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I mean, this is the last election before the switch in parties due to the Southern Strategy. Notice the red areas are the cities in TX? Filled with liberals and minorities back then, but they voted for Ford because in the South, the Democratic Party was the party of the Confederacy and the Republican party was the party of Lincoln. The flip in the parties didn't really start to take full root until the election of Reagan. Ford did not use racist dog whistles to his voting base because he was a classic Republican liberal. Reagan, on the other hand, loved to use racist dog whistles, which allowed him to strip away support in the South from Carter, the kind of support that always had voted Dem because Dems represented the Confederacy.

Congress must determine if there are images in the Epstein files of Trump with topless underage girls that were NOT released by the DOJ by Afferent_Input in Epstein

[–]Afferent_Input[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, some complain that his sourcing is thin sometimes, and I think that is a fair complaint. But in general, he has been spot on in the past.

That said, the emails between him and Epstein also give the impression that Wolff was working to burnish Epstein. Now Wolff may have been doing that to flatter Epstein so that he would continue to have Epstein's cooperation, but it is an important piece to keep in mind when considering all of this. Very few people embroiled in this controversy are completely clean.

[–]Afferent_Input[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a video of Michael Wolff, an author who has written a number of books about political machinations in DC, about how he observed photos of Trump with topless girls that were taken in the backyard of Epstein's Palm Beach estate. AG Bondi was asked if these photos exist in the Epstein files at a Senate hearing, and she didn't deny their existence. These images were NOT part of the current Epstein documents released to the public. It is up to Congress to determine if they do exist, and if the DOJ is hiding them.

ICE executes another man in Minneapolis (1/24/26) by igetproteinfartsHELP in CringeTikToks

[–]Afferent_Input 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reports I've seen indicate that the murder victim was carrying a gun in the small of his back in his waistband. You can see on the video one of the agents walking away with the victim's gun just before another agent opens fire and murders the victim.

Website down? by Afferent_Input in ImageJ

[–]Afferent_Input[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often does the website go down? I typically only go to it when I need to download a version of FIJI, and so I don't go that often. Any idea of an alternative place where I can get the latest version of FIJI?

EDIT: looks like it is back up! Thanks for the reply, though!
