“We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Nature’s inexhaustible sources of energy--sun, wind and tide. I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that.”
― Thomas Edison 1931

I do not trust this "artificial" intelligence.

The bribed Supreme Court is ruling on whether or not, for example, Joe Biden, is allowed to order the military to take, for instance, the Supreme Court, and to have them, for example, murdered.
