The government that engineered his escape from standing trial for genocide, then indicted him for "kidnapping" only to dismiss the case.

Thank you.

The guardian article is also the second result for "Jonathan Powell pinochet" on google.

Even if they have the ability to build one, and do so without Russia turning the facility where they're building it into rubble with hypersonic missiles, they would need dozens to have full MAD type protection.

Does Ukraine even have a missile system capable of carrying that kind of payload as far as Moscow?

"don't worry about it being perfect" and "stop being so self critical"

The Pauli effect or Pauli's device corollary is the supposed tendency of technical equipment to encounter critical failure in the presence of certain people. The term was coined after mysterious anecdotal stories involving Austrian theoretical physicist Wolfgang Pauli, describing numerous instances in which demonstrations involving equipment suffered technical problems only when he was present.

An incident occurred in the physics laboratory at the University of Göttingen. An expensive measuring device, for no apparent reason, suddenly stopped working, although Pauli was in fact absent. James Franck, the director of the institute, reported the incident to his colleague Pauli in Zürich with the humorous remark that at least this time Pauli was innocent. However, it turned out that Pauli had been on a railway journey to Zürich and had switched trains in the Göttingen rail station at about the time of the failure.

R. Peierls describes a case when at one reception this effect was to be parodied by deliberately crashing a chandelier upon Pauli's entrance. The chandelier was suspended on a rope to be released, but it stuck instead, thus becoming a real example of the Pauli effect

This election was crazier than the last election. On the other hand it will be less crazy than the next election.

Eugene Debs ran for president while in federal prison for sedition, so it's not really unprecedented.

So you didn’t vote for anyone for president?

I'm not American, if I was I would have voted for Stein though.

Not voting for someone who is aiding and abetting genocide is morally correct, it's not complicated.

If genocide isn't a red line for you, what is?

As someone who's been following him for some time, I think the article is a little doomerish. His stance on vaccines is troubling, but he's outlined policies he'd want to see, like capping drug prices and banning pesticides that are banned in europe, before https://www.wsj.com/opinion/trump-can-make-america-healthy-again-rfk-jr-reforms-chronic-disease-crisis-a9b4b8c0
