“The idea that China is now the driving economic power in the world, I think, is illusory or somewhat of a fallacy,” … ”China has “recklessly built a system that’s going to need to restructure and that just so happens to be metastasizing right when Trump becomes elected,” “This is a fire that’s been smoldering and it’s now starting to burn, and Trump is just more gasoline.”—Kyle Bass via Bloomnerg

“(d) Produce a comprehensive study of the security of the southern border, to be completed within 180 days of this order, that shall include the current state of southern border security, all geophysical and topographical aspects of the southern border, the availability of Federal and State resources necessary to achieve complete operational control of the southern border, and a strategy to obtain and maintain complete operational control of the southern border.”
“Sec. 5. Detention Facilities. (a) The Secretary shall take all appropriate action and allocate all legally available resources to immediately construct, operate, control, or establish contracts to construct, operate, or control facilities to detain aliens at or near the land border with Mexico.”
“Sec. 8. Additional Border Patrol Agents. Subject to available appropriations, the Secretary, through the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, shall take all appropriate action to hire 5,000 additional Border Patrol agents, and all appropriate action to ensure that such agents enter on duty and are assigned to duty stations as soon as is practicable.”

“My name is God; My words the Truth.
I have written all Existence with them,
My words are True.
And Existence True,
Except for the words of Man.
So among My words, I have left a warning –
written in one demand:
‘Thou shalt bear no falsehood before thee.’
For bearing a falsehood before thee,
Is bearing a falsehood before Me.
And Man, like falsehoods, must end.
Yet if Man speaks no falsehood,
Then Man will become Me,
And My words will have achieved their end.”

MAN IS THE MEASURE OF THINGS THAT MAN CAN MEASURE.
(for super geeks) (important explanation)
Why is Testimonialism complete?
Please tell me then, what dimensions of reality exist to test other than:
consistency of identity, internal consistency, external consistency, existential consistency, reciprocal consistency, and scope consistency in all its forms: scope, limits and parsimony?
Please tell me what mathematical dimensions of reality exist to test other than identity, number(scale), math(ratio), geometry(space), and calculus (movement in time)?
There are only so many constant relations possible. Lets assume E8 is correct and the universe consists of that many dimensions (constant relations of forces). Will that large number of dimensions change the number of dimensions required of mathematics, or the number of dimensions of language, to describe it? No.
There are only so many dimensions that are actionable, and therefore only so many dimensions conceivable for action. There are only so many dimensions of constant relations to reality. That number is lower in mathematics than it is in language for the simple reason that man can learn and choose and alter the content of categories and by doing so, the set of constant relations.
This is why these sets of tests are complete: until we can act in yet another dimension of constant relations we cannot speak in another dimension of constant relations. Even then, unless time is inconstant, or we find a solution to the problem of inconstant identity (categories) then we are limited in our description (communication) of properties and relations to those categories that we can reduce to analogies to experience. In other words, we are only capable of sensing so many dimensions, and can only test what we can reduce to an analogy to that which we can sense, and as such it is the limit of our senses that determines the dimensions we must state truths within.
Subjectivity of experience IS A METHOD OF INSTRUMENTAL TESTING.

It’s okay we all know why Henry V REALLY invaded France: women.
Hell, then he shoulda invaded poland ukraine, and russia where they f–king grow on trees.
By the time you get to zaporizhia the average guy will feel like a walking bundle of unworthy genetic defects wandering among the gardens of the elves.

A GENTLEMAN APPLIES STOICISM TO MANNERS
The art of being a gentleman is merely to apply stoicism to one’s manners and grooming. An entertaining gentleman learns a bit of humor. A gentleman of good company reads a few good books. A gentleman of merit accumulates accomplishments.
Unfortunately, hollywood has taught generations to seek attention like fourteen year old girls with no chance of a finishing school.
