I try recollect how, as a kid, the crazed brutushness we sometimes got glimpses of in the news-it happened, but don't worry, good people were on duty..., even the murder of JFK happened against a background of outraged decency! What are the babies thinking now? Trump! Whaaaa...?
(Btw, a church lady's ppreposterous 'concern' for the children used to be funny, but omgosh, taint very funny now!! g!)

Oh, never mind. I was right. (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Catcher)

All I know is from years ago when "goatse" was a term that could apply well to the oranganus.

that has more than a 24 hr shelf life.

Yet, he gets away with it.

We and the media must start learning how to focus/present our thoughts more cumulatively. Or he gets away with it all.

Don't forget that Jared had a phone conversation with Kashoggi one day before he left for Turkey. Kushner has (or had) top security clearance and he must have known that something was about to happen. But instead of warning Kashoggi and saving his life, he allowed the murder to proceed by not breathing a word of it. Chances are that Cheeto also knew and concurred.
