Has anyone heard of Great Courses Plus? There lot's of great content on there. My homie got me two free months and I'm currently watching a lecture on behvioral economics. If anyone is interested, here is a link https://www.thegreatcoursesplus.com/home

Yeah Great Courses is amazing. There are always sales too.

My girl takes some of the history stuff. I first used it to get ready for grad school, using the Edwards Calc course.

 

[seandon23]

so he has two twitter accounts now ?

yeah he has the official POTUS and his personal one

 

[elpablo21]

Good to see that the president is growing up a little bit

I wonder who really wrote this tweet

Ivanka

Donald probably sniffed the phone afterward

probably asked her to leave a golden scent behind

 

[anomolie]

I'm not a fan of Trump. Think he's a bigot but folks need to back off when talking about Barron Trump. Saw some crazy stuff about him on twitter. Leave him alone

his personal one and the POtuS one. there was talk of getting rid of his personal one but i doubt he'll give it up.

and then multiple people from his team are able to tweet out with his handle, i believe.

agreed. it was brought up a few pages back on here and the general consensus was that young children of presidents have traditionally been off limits for attacks.

 

[boris]

Same individuals? Debatable.


Same people? For sure. Intelligence agencies have been lying since their inception. I lurk this thread, you guys are too smart to be this naive regarding the credibility of intelligence agencies.

So, where do you get your information? If you don't trust anything you read/hear, it's pointless for you to engage in these discussions.

Trump Counselor Kellyanne Conway stated today that Trump will not release his tax returns. Send them to: https://t.co/cLRcuIiQXz so we can.

Trump's breach of promise over the release of his tax returns is even more gratuitous than Clinton concealing her Goldman Sachs transcripts.

Should be interesting to watch Wikileaks going forward.

Lie in bed with snakes, don't cry when they bite you.

Well I guess they're making an effort to repair their image.
Assange claimed Wikileaks had info on Trump during the campaign but chose not to release it and then later retracted that statement.
They should have released their data on both at the same time if they wanted to keep their non-partisan reputation.

That's certainly a possibility.

It may be that they're simply being deceptive, putting up a sort of false resistance.

It may also be that they are now in their next stage of sowing doubt and division in the US, ultimately aiming for destabilization.

i hear many trump supporters say.. "well it can tget much worse than we already are" wth does that even me

[green rhino123]

i hear many trump supporters say.. "well it can tget much worse than we already are" wth does that even me

i think it means they didn't like bama & the job he did

 

[Mark Antony]

Question for all sides, this bizarre war on the press that this administration has, do they see themselves winning? the press is your propaganda station and can control the narrative if pushed too far. I don't see this ending well.

Anything specifically?

Been hearing this phrase uttered more lately. :\

You'd have to ask them.

 

[MVP]

I would way prefer to have McCain be president over this clown we have right now

He's backing Tillerson for SOS now, guess those Russian ties and general lack of qualifications didn't alarm him quite enough.

 

[whywesteppin]

22 of 23 senior staff members for Trump are white. i think 19 of 23 are male.

of course.

 

[anomolie]

Anything specifically?

White coworker who voted for him said "She feels "whites" are back in power. That's the way it should be". She didn't know I heard her say this btw.

One drop rule famb.

Trump got Ben Barson, that means his staff is diverse
