We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.
Some positive lessons, and some negative, like this important lesson:
In 1980, Reagan opened the border "both
ways” so that immigrants could cross and work
with visas and pay taxes with almost
unrestricted travel.
His object was to help short-term economic migrants.
In 1982, the Supreme
Court forbade schools to deny services based
on illegal immigration status.
So then illegals flooded-in to game the system.
The crime problem grew. In 1986, Reagan tried a remedy by giving the biggest amnesty in U.S. history,
which legalized a small number of illegal aliens. But this error created the margin of welfare recipients which turned California from a strongly Republican state to a Democrat state with even larger welfare programs, higher taxes and power-hungry bureaucrats, and an ever-growing illegal alien problem.
What is being released right now is not transparency.
It is controlled disclosure.
Fragments.
Selective timing.
Curated narratives.
Carefully engineered confusion.
Enough to distract.

“Our problem as Americans is we actually hate history. What we love is nostalgia.’
-- Regie Gibson
“Here’s an uncomfortable truth about the Epstein accusations: We only find them morally reprehensible because of Christianity. Before the spread of Christianity, ‘civilized’ Greek and Roman elites openly flaunted underage s*x slaves. This was normal. Emperor Hadrian built an entire city in honor of his favorite boy… If you undercut the moral foundations of Christianity from the West, culture reverts back to pagan norms.”
–Paul Anleitner
