I remember watching an old 50s info film, I can't find it, where the army had an asbestos burning contest. I can't remember exactly why they were doing it, but it had to be done and they decided to make it a whole thing. People stood right next to the burning barrels stirring occasionally , faces full of soot and what looked about 50 soldiers sitting around cheering. I'm sure they didn't make it to 50.

So the epstein files that you said you would release,

that were ALL going to be release,

But maybe not all of it.

the list of people you didn't really know,

but there was no epstein list,

the epstein list that is a Democratic hoax,

the list that didn't have your name in it,

but now has been planted.

Yes, that list.

There's a patient that we would see a couple of days per month. They'd OD on heroin, we hit them with narcan and an electrolyte IV to hydrate. He'd eat something and leave. We would give him resources to get some help. Each time I'd get more and more angry.

6 months of this and I finally asked why he'd OD almost like clockwork. He said the good stuff sold fast and he'd only get enough for like 2 maybe 3 hits(?highs, fixes?) The guy's life was just waiting on his dealer to get it. He would figure out how to make enough cash to keep his withdrawals at bay while saving up to buy up as much as he could when the good stuff arrived.

The last time I saw him, day shift told me he came in, got hit with narcan twice, this was after EMTs had given him narcan as well. when he was steady enough, he left AMA(against medical advice). He came back 3 hrs later for another OD. Doctor came in and told him he's killing himself. this organ is damaged, this one has this, blah, blah, blah. He responded that he'd be fine if we would stop killing his high. I did the usual and he left sometime the next day.

We haven't seen him in 4 months. I guess he finally got to enjoy his high.

A security guard that found a bomb and saved many lives at Olympic Park in Atlanta during the Olympics in 1996. After an FBI leak, the media effectively claimed him as the culprit.

A Justice Department investigation of the FBI's conduct found that the FBI had tried to cause Jewell to waive his constitutional rights by telling him he was participating with a training movie about bomb detection, although the report concluded "no intentional violation of Mr. Jewell's civil rights and no criminal misconduct" had occurred.

At a press conference in July 1997, U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno expressed personal regret concerning the leak that resulted in intense media scrutiny of Jewell. She said, "I'm very sorry it happened. I think we owe him an apology. I regret the leak.

It's something we should be aware of due to current events and major newspapers owned by billionaires.
