On Trump and Egypt

This is a pretty good synopsis of what happened regarding $10,000,000 that appears to be have given to trump by the Egyptian government in cash … and the investigation was shut down by AG Bill Barr. 

As the reporter notes the statute of limitations has run out on "illegal campaign contributions" … but it hasn't run out on money laundering, or obstruction of justice on Barrs part. 

Just remember that the Donald is corrupt, and should be in federal prison, not unlike bob menendez.

Science for the win

Scientists used several different methods to prove that Vikings arrived in the Americas nearly 500 years before Columbus stumbled into the Caribbean … errr … "discovered the Americas"

Can we finally stop celebrating Columbus as some kind of hero and acknowledge how history actually happened?

The Vikings had small boats and even more rudimentary methods of navigation. And sailed from further than Spain. 

And that scientists can use rigor to determine when they arrived based on technology, rather than conjecture or mythology, is indeed exciting.

The last supper and the Olympics - an update

It would seem that my reaction was correct. This part of the show was NOT based on the last supper. Rather it was a look at Greek mythology. 

So people were seeing this through their own lens and applying some kind of offended religious aspect to it that didn't exist. 

Man. Are people stupid.

Social media uses data in unusual ways

I find it interesting how one is under scrutiny by the justice department, while the other is simply being questioned by users and "looked into" by governments but here's how you can opt out. 

IMHO they are doing the same thing! Collecting your data and using it for their own purposes. 

And should be treated the same way as a result.
