If You Need A Final Consensus

 “The Wikipedians who write these articles aren’t focused on finding the truth. For our most tricky disagreements, seeking the truth isn’t the best place to start. Reverence for the truth might have become a bit of distraction that is preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.”

-- Former 'boss' of the Wikimedia foundation and current CEO of NPR, Katherine Maher

Just some advice here....if you need to find the truth....you'd best center-in on facts and truth....to reach a final consensus. 

If you can't find facts....forget about this discussion at hand, and go back to mowing your lawn, or hauling hay.

Three Things

 1.  On Biden's pardons and  exec-orders?

Within a week after Trump comes to office....I expect  at least one state AG to challenge a pardon in his state.

The problem?  He's going to say Biden is suffering from mental decline/dementia.  

By the end of 2025, the court system will agree, and all of these individuals  who felt they got a legit pardon....find it cancelled-out.

2.  On buying  Greenland?

Tons of minerals sitting there, and if you don't make the move....China will bribe EU members to get contracts.

My deal?  I'd offer Denmark a $100-billion down-payment, with two $500 billion checks over a ten-year period. 

3.  On  retaking the Panama Canal?

Look....it's goofed-up in the Chinese design for the bigger locks....taking more water from the lake than it can handle.

The treaty says....if Panama can't efficiently operate it....the US takes it back.

Maybe they should offer Panama a deal....US territory....statehood....if you resolve or fix this.
