What is there to not like about mathematics? One plus one will always be two, and zero will always remain zero.

Pluto was a planet for a very long time, and one day it wasn’t. I cannot imagine something like that will ever happen in mathematics. It will always remain pure and honest.

The mainstream media strongly believes Biden’s approval numbers are tanking because of Afghanistan. I beg to differ. I firmly believe they are absolutely wrong on this one. Biden’s approval numbers are tanking because of rising Covid cases.

Tell me I am wrong on this one:

Since July 26th, 2021, Biden’s approval rating has moved in one direction — the south. Before the slide began, July 25th to July 26th was the last upwards move, 52.4% to 52.7%. You can see the trendline I drew in the attached image. His current approval rating stands at 45.2%.

On the first day of the rating slide , something very interesting happened — July 27th, 2021: The United States reported more Covid cases than the previous Covid peak recorded in April 2021.
