The fact that ‘The Measurement Problem’ exists is proof that there is no such thing ‘a closed system’ in quantum mechanics – and strongly suggests that the Many Worlds Interpretation is an accurate representation of reality.

Regardless of what Trump's punishment will be for his 34 Felony convictions, he should be given full punishment for each and every violation of his gag order.

Trump's numerous violations of his gag orders, on their own, demands prison time. These were threats and still hold potential to incite violence. He should be taken into custody immediately while awaiting sentencing for his 34 guilty verdicts.

That the Jury found Trump guilty so quickly – and on all 34 counts is the greatest possible Slam Dunk we could ask for. You couldn't script it any better.

Remove Judge Aileen Cannon and indict her. She's blatantly obstructing justice!

1 of 16/ Body Language and Behavior Analysis No. 4744: Kaitlan Collins asks Ted Cruz if he'll Accept the Results of the 2024 Election – Nonverbal and Emotional Intelligence

2 of 16/ Two days ago, Senator Ted Cruz was asked by Kaitlyn Collins if he'll accept the results of the 2024 presidential election. What follows is a brief clip of that interview and an oft overlooked body language tell.

@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

3 of 16/ Specifically, Kaitlan Collins asks, "In 2024, will you certify the election results? Do you plan to object or will you accept the results regardless of who wins the election?"

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

4 of 16/ Ted Cruz answers, "So Kaitlin, I gotta say, I, I think that's actually a, a ridiculous question" – Collins pushes back with, "It's a yes or no question"...

@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

5 of 16/ Cruz responds, "I, n, no, it's not. N, le, le, let me explain why it's a ridiculous question. It's not a question – 'ave you ever asked Democrat that?" Collin answers, "Of course."

6 of 16/ Note Ted Cruz's double-handed gesture – with his fingers and thumbs intertwined except for the two index fingers (forefingers) flexor surfaces touching, and extended in a forward point:

7 of 16/ This is called a "Pistol Steeple" for two reasons – not only because it physically resembles a handgun (a visual metaphor), but also because it signifies an effort to 'shoot down' the idea/logic/explanation of the other person.

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

8 of 16/ Whenever a pistol steeple is used, you know the person already has their mind made up – and that they're going to vehemently oppose you/your reasoning/your answer. Their mind is not only closed, but they're on the offensive.

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

9 of 16/ It's important to note that sometimes you'll see a pistol steeple being displayed, but the person isn't voicing any (or perhaps just a little) disagreement. ...

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

10 of 16/ ... In such cases, the pistol steeple is a sign of clandestine disagreement. You can indeed be sure that they're thinking-feeling considerable criticisms – they're just holding them back.

Watch your flank!

11 of 16/ Did you notice the contempt that Cruz displays toward Collins (on his left). It looks like what many people would call a 'snarl'. It's a bit difficult to see because of the angle of the camera and his facial hair, but Cruz is expressing considerable contempt here:

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

12 of 16/ Notice also Cruz's multiple stutterings (Cruz is a non-stutterer), omission and truncation of words. He also immediately starts in on his explanation, but then stops, self-interrupting – asking Collins about her asking a Democrat that same question (whataboutism).

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

13 of 16/ Moreover, like many manipulative people – particularly people in power – Cruz criticizes the question – turning it into an admonishment of the questioner. This is always a red flag.

DrJackBrown,
@DrJackBrown@mstdn.social avatar

14 of 16/ Cruz and people with similar personalities, will criticize you and bully you – trying to make you feel stupid – in public or in private – in an effort to get you to back down and prevent similar queries from others in the future.

Without enforceable ethics standards, the entire concept of our justice system is a facade. It's the goddamn 'Emperor's New Clothes'.
