Breaking a lid therefore means that they called the press back in after effectively declaring the day over.I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

After the Vegas shootings, I said to friends, "at least none of the conspiracy nuts will go 'this is a false flag made up event with actors' like they did with 911, Sandy Hook, etc" because there were dozens of videos and over 20,000 people who started running when shots ran out.

We've had fascism for over 100 years. Government allows the means of production to be in private hands but controls it by so-called regulation. Government is a blood-sucking Leviathan that increases in size every year. In America it's done without being an overt dictatorship. Ruby Ridge was an atrocity.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

I have a weird request, and since some of you here are quasi-literate, help me find a word that I have lost through my advanced age for a piece I'm writing:
The word means to keep something quiet, or hush-hush, especially like an affair.
Thanks in advance."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln
