This is a super important conversation. 💙
Love this quirky and fun series put together by some very talented people. I'm very much looking forward to season four. :)
Has a cool historical vibe inside. It would be kind of funny if they opened a brand new 2nd location inside a mall in Florida with no historical vibe
Subject Line: Corn Pop’s Word-Salad Game. This is The Infamous, The Bold & The Evolving, ‘Aliens vs Zombies Prediction’ for 2025…as in…what would a fictitiously unbiased alien from outerspace predict for WallStreet & Washington through the 2024 election and beyond through 2025? …drum roll please… Women’s voters, blacks people voters, young and ignorants, The Deplorables, confused youngsters and even the transgenderds all jump ship on Liberalism for a Gigantic Red Wave Tsunami in 2024 election OR Supreme Court contests Democracy with President Trump and begins massive Congressional Impeqchment Proceedings. Taylor Swift and Brittney Spears run through Central Park together screaming and shouting, “Birth Permits, Eugenics and Small Government.” U.S. Supreme Court contests both Presidential and Congressional Elections. Trump Builds Wall, Ends Democracy and Makes America Great, Glorious and Beautiful Again. Ukraine and Russia become good friends as the war ends. China agrees to recognize Taiwan as an Independent Nation for the foreseeable future. Trump proves himself a highly skilled negotiator and strengthens ties with NATO Allies who start paying their fair share of military expenses. U.S. Supreme Court takes countermeasures to deinstitutionalize Traditional Pelosi Butch-Woman-Feminism Bossy & Jacksonian Gender Male Pronoun, Pronunciation & Pacification Schemes. Constitutional Amendment passed to allow for Education, Free Speech and a Free Press. Remnants of Affirmative Action remain in workplaces where they belong and not entrenched into our schools through Demonic Liberal Teacher Unions or Deeply Programmed into our textbooks, computers, mass media and television screens like California-style Stalinism. Entitlement Reform and a Global Reset are enacted to pay down National Debts and Unfunded Liabilities while Biden’s Energy Plan is scrapped alongside Tesla’s Cyber Truck; because Americans are broke and America is both an insolvent nation and The Largest Debtor Nation in The History of The World making the entire Democrat/Liberal Party platform utterly useless and irrelevant as it is Communist and based on little more than ignorant whining and race-baiting nonsense. President Trump increased black pay and black wages making him the best President for black Americans, since Abraham Lincoln. Tax rates to become an afterthought under Trump while the tax code is summarily streamlined. Temporary Worker Visa Programs are Bjørn. Minnesota Vikings handily win The Super Bowl. Denmark Feminists aghast. Trump calls in National Guard to Enforce Reform on Greta Thunberg. Joe Bidenism and other Teleprompter-Demoncrat-Cyberborg Bully Party Leaders are put on trial for treason. Russia and China not happy about Cultist Coup Leader and ANTIFA Incarnate, Kamala Harris (Come Allah. Her ISIS.) as potential ANTIFA/ISIS White House Insert. Joe Bidenism publicly admits to staying in office as a safeguard measure to prevent his own Vice President, PARASITE Kamala Harris from being POTUS even for a millisecond to save his own skin from BLM Racism & DEI Persecution. Next stage of human development begins, inspiring awe, glory and coexistence around the universe. President Donald J. Trump successful in Making America Great, Beautiful & Glorious Again! Liberals coalesce as liberals do and are unanimously overjoyed at the realization, smaller government may be able to fund a nuclear energy project and have a positive impact on greenhouse gas emissions, but only in tandem with Amended Conservative Fiscal Reform to Address $35 [T]rillion in National Debt, $7.4 [T]rillion Fed Balance Sheet, a rapidly expanding Budget Deficit and $200 [T]rillion in Unfunded Liabilities. Liberals waffle over their Transgendered-Orwellian Conerns with significant questions about the insignificance of bovine future as healthy human nutrition comes into the fore and as a formal address to The American Obesity Epidemic. Wisdom and romance abound as peace, love, family and humanity create more global unity, improved cross-cultural happiness and inclusiveness while reducing stress-related illnesses. Even the mermaids jump for joy as less government amounts to more peace, prosperity and noticeably lower crime rates due to Judicial Reform, increased law enforcement and tougher sentencing for repeat offenders. Joe Biden unveiled as the greater scoundrel of Hunter Biden and Richard Nixon put together. A peaceful revolution based on Birth, godliness, family, community, a broader educational scope and improved technology make life experiences for humans greener, more beautiful, peaceful, prosperous and rewarding. Have markets already priced in this prediction as well as rate cuts? How to invest, if such an ‘Alien Prediction for 2025’ were to come true? Winston Churchill once opined, “you can always count on America doing the right thing - after they’ve tried everything else.” Will there be blood in the streets, if this prediction proves itself incorrect and The US Dollar is instead replaced by gold, copper, coal, Agricultural ETFs, Russian Rubles, a BRIC currency, Hardtack Coupons or Small Tubes of Toothpaste as The World’s Reserve Currency? Will Come Allah, Her ISIS, Kamala Harris simply waltz & sass her way into the White House with Supreme Court Confirmation? Is that how that works? Does anyone care to comment on Elon Musk’s, Kamala Harris’ Parody Videos? Will Trump expose The Come Allah. Her ISIS. Kamala Harris Coup as a Coup started by Radical Islamic Terrorists and coordinated by both ‘The Squad’ in Congress and by Saddam Hussain Barak Obamnian? Could it all be decades in the making? What will happen? One thing is certain, 2025 will be a monumental and historic year. Let us hope and pray, 2025 shall be both Peaceful and Victorious under President Donald J. Trump! The Lavender Haze of a New World Order upon all horizons may soon be upon us as Demoncrats inch the world ever closer to World War III disguising themselves from recognition as The American Communist Party and by wearing instead only Democrat Labels which few of us understand any better than their woke gender pronoun schemes. History repeats itself as in Bolivia with Communism and elsewhere. It is up to The American Voter to learn from our history and for The Supreme Court to Judge Freedom from Liberalist Joe Bidenism & Stalinism. Pathetic Joe Bidenism’s very recent proposal to impose ethics upon the first conservative Supreme Court Majority in fifty years is ludicrous and was declared, “dead on arrival” by Republican Senator, Mike Lee. President Trump has pleaded for years about rigged elections and has already promised during his debate with Joe Bidenism to contest the election, if he loses. The Supreme Court may wisely rule against The Squad & Others in Congress in retribution to Impeachment Proceedings against Supermen Supreme Court Justices, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito as well as ruling against Congressional attempts to stack the court into a Communist & Muslim Fundamentalist Coup. PARASITE & GENDER MISIDENTIFIED Kamala Harris is soundly defeated by Trump in debates proving Trump correct when he said, “Kamala will be easier to beat than Biden.” ***SPREAD THE WORD!!!!!!! ***COPY, PASTE, EMAIL, FACEBOOK, LIKE, SHARE, TWEET, SUBSCRIBE. Challenge: Try reading this while making a toast at a luncheon or dinner party to create interesting and intellectual conversation or to identify divisions within your own social networks. Triple Bonus: Americans need to eat many more healthy foods and here may be some good ideas on that note: Unflavored Psyllium Fiber, Unflavored Whey Protein, Organic Spinach Powder, Raw Red Bell Pepper, Sunflower Seeds, Oatmeal with Bananas, Milk or Soy and Pure Dark Chocolate (who knew pure dark chocolate was sugar-free and rich in nutrients?), hot jasmine green tea unsweetened and purchased in bulk, bone-in pork chops with salt and pepper, an iron skillet and BBQ sauce. Corn Soufflé has been served regularly in the White House as one of American Cuisine’s most quintessential dishes. Enjoy in balance and moderation. For some Asian, Greek or French infusion try Korean Ribeye Bulgogi and Steamed Rice, Greek Chicken Marbella or French Coq Au Vin. Now you too can be a World Class Chef! Bon appetit. Tu es ce que tu manges. Disclaimer: Obey the law. Do not bring machete to BLM/ANTIFA/ISIS riot. Consult with your physician as necessary about dietary changes and consider legal ramifications of presenting this excerpt during an employment screening or interview in lieu of Onerous American Censorship Laws put in place by Demoncrat Cyberborg Bully Demorat Teleprompter Programming ‘Community’. Hopefully readers may find these words satirical and funny to both brighten and enlighten their days. Written with hope, peace and kind regards in mind. God Bless America! MAGGBA!! Liberation Day is ever so near and may become a Global Holiday. Thank you, President Trump. Finding wisdom from chaos and tyranny is liberating, so fear not and seek only Truth Social. Seriously…have fun with this. Think of it like a board game to play with friends, various associates and family members using internet searches to look up meanings and to decipher the obvious satire, comedy and conservative bias you need to feel free and liberated from Demoncrat Stalinism, Joe Bidenism, old Bones Pelosicrat and PARASITE gender-misidentified Kamala Harris. Come Allah? Her ISIS? Kam…ala…Harr…Is…Is. Get it? Not good. Who thinks monetizing America’s debt like Argentina would be fun and livable? USA IS THE LARGEST DEBTOR NATION IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. Should we end the Fed? What does that mean?

Fun fact, it wasn’t just the aborigine or native Americans that were target of the genocide and extermination campaign but Mexico as well, Mexico was as much a damper to westward expansion as Indian territory, and equally viewed as a threat to the US’s interests. A quote describing this imperial goal is described by New York herald writer James Gordon in his description of the Mexican American war “ The tide of emigration will set towards Mexico, and the imbecile race that now inhabits that country is as sure to melt away at the approach of Anglo-Saxon energy and enterprise as snow before a southern sun. Their fate will be similar to that of the Indians of this country--the race, before a century rolls over us, will become extinct” - New York Herald Another good quote is in the book by Maria Burton, A Mexican writer during the conquest and war of Mexico To me they are all alike, Indians, Mexicans, or Californians, they are all horrid. However our just laws and smart lawyers will soon " freeze them out." That as soon as we take their lands from them they will never be heard of any more, and then the Americans, with God's help, will have all the land that was so righteously acquired through a just war and a most liberal payment in money. Ain't that patriotism and Christian faith for you?" Or as Winston Churchill stated in the most general statement of the event ; “ it was the age of Americas manifest destiny, it was unfortunate that Mexico stood in its path”
Where do you put the waste then?
It’s crazy because most most nuclear power plants can store the waste of about 100 years in one small room. One small object of nuclear power can give power for multiple family lifetimes it’s not like fossil fuels where the waste goes the atmosphere and dissipates, nor like solar panels which will waste landmass through entire junkyards of decayed panels, not like wind power which kills endangered or near endangered birds like eagles, lowering the balance of ecosystems. They al have their issues but nuclear power takes up the least amount of space, produces a reasonable amount of waste that is manageable for the foreseeable future (100’s of generations, and doesn’t destroy the environment, or contribute to global warming. That said, human error is the limit with how far nuclear power can go.

Died
Shit is annoying
I find the dancing very cringe personally, but to each his own
That's where I sit too on this issue and wish more diehard baseball fans sat, but a lot of people seem to love it, especially people who would have never watched a baseball game before, it also gives talent that didn't make the league another place to make money from this sport
And then promptly began one if the largest crime epidemics in the nation’s entire history
I love the old 1950s style
Its dangerous because they’re businesses. Properly disposing of nuclear waste required tens of millions of dollars. That effects the net profits of those companies. Companies will cut costs and corners where ever they can get away with, especially if its cheaper to pay scrying wyes to look away. Nuclear waste absolutely cannot be allowed to be dumped anywhere but in secure sites tht cannot effect the ecosystem or people and making nuclear power our main source of energy opens up the market in a way tht makes it impossible for a few companies to hold a monopoly. Hate them if you want, and you should want to hate them, but monopolies are much easier to regulate and keep an eye on then an open market.
Bros forgetting the barrels of radioactive glowing green slime
That can be turned back into rods.
@@Hamburber420wait actually, so it’s not made of the few impurity’s that are now radioactive from being already used in the rod?
The worst reactor accident in history wasn’t caused by some inherent problem with nuclear power, it was caused by political meddling. Keep bureaucrats away from scientific fields and suddenly there are fewer problems
We don't even have to use uranium we can use thorium which is way better. And it's impossible to make a nuclear missile out of it. The reason we use uranium is specifically because the government wanted a dual purpose material. It could be used for both nuclear power and making weapons.
Solid points . . . Now look at this pen **flash**
I always laugh when people freak out about the "radioactive waste!" That nuclear leaves behind. Because. Like, we already use coal. Which puts out 10x the amout of radioactive material, and they put it directly into the atmosphere.
No battery plus 2 generator 1is for the motor 1just run a bigger motor you could drop the battery on 2a starter motor
We should be using it more, yes
I'm just saying radroaches, death claws, ghouls, and raiders seem more survivable than most current US cities.
and he was never seen again
Facts
Part of the problem with nuclear is "highly regulated" you might believe that but nuclear waste has been dumped in landfills all over America. Now, if we actually did what we said we do. Nuclear would be a very efficient form of energy. Spent uranium can be melted down and reused in new reactor rods. But more interesting is the concept of incorporating small amounts as an energy source into capacitors. We can use these capacitors to dump current into grids like a self recharging power wall. With enough of these walls, and the proper timing, theoretically you could create grid redundancy and prevent brown outs or even blackouts. The radiation would be minimal enough that you could probably bury these boxes around various poles and given enough of them, replace coal and other carbon heavy power plants. The only downside is maintenance and boxes being overly distant.
Basically the biggest problem with nuclear is human accountability
@@jackavalmasovnon that but even moreso considering that a nuclear diamond battery inside of a capacitor has multiple problems. 1. A NDB would outlive the capacitor. 2. The NDB would take over a 1,000 years to lose its charge. 3. NDB's have never successfully been made on a commercial level. 4. Each box would take roughly 5 days to build up a charge large enough to be usable in the grid. 5. It's so not cost effective that it would take government subsidizing it to keep it alive. That means electricity now becomes a tax and what happens to people that don't pay taxes? Armed government employees kick your door in and take you to prison. 6. If you apply a carbon footprint structure to the taxes, you have now effectively made citizens indentured servants the moment they are born.
Could solve out power issues creating tremendous amounts of power with low environmental impact but through fear mongering we have largely avoided it like the plague allowing archaic power producers to remain in control
I know fuck all about this kind of thing, but I find it suspicious as hell that pur government is so ready and willing to make more nuclear bombs but will not use the resources to give people renewable energy.
its not technically renewable, but it is about the most abundant energy dense fuel we have. and it doesn't use a lot of it, compared to contemporary fossil fuels anyway. its just the nuclear fear-mongering and the chernoble incident, mixed with a bit of lobbied coal misinformation that has led to nuclear power having next to no public acceptance, despite modern nuclear reactors being vastly safer than any coal powerplant.
the biggest enemy of nuclear isnt leftisst green bleeding hearts..but big oil
It's not renewable however is probably the best we can do
It’s damn near close to renewable. Unlike Fossil Fuels, Fissile Elements can be found all over the solar system. So if we ever start building interplanetary infrastructure, Nuclear reactors will be the most effective way to power stuff, especially past Mars when solar power becomes fucking useless.
My dad works at a power plant and has over 20 years of experience, i can justly say for a fact it is renewble
@@TaysTyy_CrusTcan you please define the term "renewable"? I don't think we speak about the same thing here
