Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino is considering leaving his job after a heated confrontation with Attorney General Pam Bondi over his frustration with how the Justice Department has handled the Jeffrey Epstein files, according to a person who has spoken with Bongino and a source familiar with the interactions that Bongino and FBI Director Kash Patel have had with Bondi.
“Bongino is out of control furious,” the person who has spoken with the deputy FBI director said. “This destroyed his career. He’s threatening to quit and torch Pam unless she’s fired.”
Bongino did not report to work Friday amid speculation about his whereabouts, said a source familiar with the perspectives of DOJ leaders who also believes that Bongino is considering leaving.
That’s just science! And math!
The demand isn’t there, that’s supply side. Just because drug A could potentially kill this many people, doesn’t mean it will, as those drugs are used by a select few, usually people who have a high tolerance. I assume you already know this, just putting it out there for the people who believe their bullshit.
It bears repeating, even places like this one. I’ve run into shocking amounts of innumeracy and utter lack of critical thinking - in addition to illiteracy. In the United States, as least.
I remember kids in school dunking on “book learning” and that they valued “street smarts”. These are exactly the types that are now “doing their own research” on things, but completely without any of the fundamental building blocks to separate the wheat from the chaff, other than by vibes.
If our education systems was beyond the reach of conservative/Republican monsters, children would be well-served by teachers that hand out something like this as an essay-type question to explain why the claim is suspect - and have them show their work. You’d get to cover critical thinking, media literacy as well as some basic math all in one fell swoop. I’m sure lots more instances could be found over the years, plucked straight from news articles…
In our current education landscape, all it would take is one snowflake to tell mommy and/or daddy that are infected with fauxbrain, and that teacher would be fired for “indoctrinating” their children with intelligence, I guess…
