Condolences to all for the passing of Pres Carter.  What a long life he had, and look at all the changes he’s seen!  So much social change, and tech advances. 
May his memory be blessed.

It's too bad he had to see the election result.

NOTE:  There is an article and a video covering the same information - See below.

Since we have been talking a lot about CIA influence and color revolutions, etc. and comments are made that this response seems to be a default -- well it is because NED is operating all over the entire globe, except North America.  

Brian breaks it down and he provides evidence for everything he says.  He also wrote and articles to accompany this video.

Here is the article:

Washington’s Unstoppable Superweapon

As geopolitical tensions escalate, the U.S. wields its most formidable weapon—not military might, but a sophisticated network of political and informational control that reshapes nations and regions to serve its interests.

This article makes two errors I want to highlight:

1. It makes a false equivalence between non-violent civil society and violent military action. Providing funding and training of non-profits is absolutely not the same as bombing a country, shooting missiles at it, sending your army to invade an occupy. Put in terms you might understand -- Russia's interference in the US 2016 election was not remotely equivalent to a military attack.

2. It repeatedly denies the agency of people in other countries, arguing that any aid people in other countries receives means they are completely under the control of the US rather than being independent actors willing to accept aid where they can get it. To put it in terms you might understand -- the fact that Americans who are opposed to American foreign policy will often take Russian government money -- for instance, by working for Russia Today as one example -- doesn't mean they aren't genuinely opposed to American foreign policy.

Discussion: De-egging Our Front Door - Best Way?

Eggs will damage the paint. I would use a power washer with a cleaning solution in the tank. Also use the wider spray tip on the nozzle. It will be difficult for you to do it manually, especially in the little nooks and crannies that you have on the screen. Maybe get a professional cleaner? 
Next get yourself a security camera, either a doorbell style or a motion activated camera that records.

From the people who support censorship and think Elon Musk destroyed Twitter when he reinstated most of the people who had been banned.  

See, even your pro-hate speech posts like this are tolerated.
