… the one cynically exploiting other Xers for hits on their accounts:
The worst are those exploiting genuinely unfortunate souls with situations, conditions … God bless them … and inventing situations, often including stock photos of a child in traction, whatever, in order to boost sympathy traffic.
Then we get those who say something like: “If you think Mr. Bukele’s doing a great job in El Salvador, retweet ME and give me me me a personal traffic boost.” (Obviously not in those exact words.)
Then there are those starting insulting arguments to get hits and to hurt someone.
Then there are the empire builders, using current world situations for their own “shows”, e.g. The Johnny Roberts Show … and where most Xers have a “following you” and “follow back” pair of buttons, these people use “following you” and “subscribe”, buy me a coffee … they lock you into paying them money, giving out card details. You can never just follow them back.

Firstly: âStarmer is playing Russian roulette. Every time he refuses to answer a question, another chamber of the gun rotatesâ. (JH: Yes, even a raving lefty like Hodges, like Sultana yesterday, like a clock, can occasionally get it right. Poor Cerk Ear.)
a) Further to No 28 Monday at HQ. Italy: Up to 615 euros offered to lawyers who manage to convince their migrant clients to leave Italy….
b) France. The National Agency for Secure Documents is not Secure. The Ministry of the Interior revealed on Monday that a security incident had affected the National Agency for Secure Documents (ANTS), the agency responsible for identity cards, passports, and driverâs licenses….
c) Europeâs vape ban fantasy is fueling black markets and sending smokers back to cigarettes.

a. Leah on Lindsey Graham
â SOUTH CAROLINA VOTERS: Letâs follow the money on your Senate race Republican primary: Lindsey Graham vs Mark Lynch
I conducted a forensic financial analysis of Lindsey Grahamâs filing over the last two election cycles. What the data shows is a funding structure that does not match his constituency, a dark money footprint larger than ANY sitting senator, and a voting record that is 100% aligned with the interests funding Israel. THE 91% PROBLEM: 91.13% of Grahamâs 2020 donor money came from OUTSIDE South Carolina. 91.31% of his current cycle money comes from OUTSIDE South Carolina. $60 million from out of state. $5.8 million from SC. His #1 zip code BOTH cycles: 33480, Palm Beach, FL. I found this to be very interestingâŚ.. Read on MacDuffâŚđ
JH note on Ms Glass … whoever does the IT for her is causing formatting problems … not only does the url auto-expand, it also includes a box with the dropper’s (in this case IYE’s) details, e.g. IP address. Then there’s “Glass”, a Jewish name and yet she’s highly critical of Israel. I call this an anomaly rather than a “watch list” candidate. Anyway, she’s just cost me 20 minutes reversing her damage and finding ways to post her url.
