The tumor in her head keeps getting bigger. It is the sole explanation.
(And yes, if she has a tumor in her brain I simply will not care less. This woman is some sort of evil manifestation on earth).

Alex Jones Is Finally Screwed
For a while there, it seemed as if Infowars founder Alex Jones was successfully stalling the payments to the Sandy Hook families, to whom he owes close to $1.5 billion in damages for defamation and emotional distress for lying about the murder of their loved ones. Nearly a year after the judgment came down in 2022, he was still spending lavishly on housekeepers and keeping up his boat, even as the families he defamed did not see a penny. In the midst of his personal bankruptcy, he was fighting to keep his control of Infowars, in part to retain his $1.5 million salary there.
But late on Thursday, Jones finally buckled when he filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy to liquidate his assets — meaning that he is going to sell his ownership stake in the parent company behind Infowars, the conspiracy site that brought him fame and millions as he peddled misinformation and dietary supplements.
The move is a major win for the Sandy Hook families, who filed an emergency motion in federal bankruptcy court on Sunday claiming that Jones and his company had “failed to demonstrate any hope of beginning to satisfy” their claims. They had asked the court to change the case from a Chapter 11 bankruptcy — one that involves restructuring — to a Chapter 7, which means liquidation. Beyond losing his stake in Infowars, Jones recently got court permission to sell off his game ranch to pay the defamation penalty for claiming that the 2012 elementary-school shooting was a government hoax carried out by crisis actors. Twenty young children and six adults were killed in the attack.
On June 14, Jones will have his next hearing in bankruptcy court to determine how to move forward. Meanwhile, he has gone into bunker mode in his on-air shows. “All we’re trying to do is save America, and they’re (expletive) us over, over and over again,” he said over the weekend. “And it’s just so sick. It’s sick, it’s sick. I want to leave, because it’s going to be over, folks.”

In some kind of sadistic way, I'd like to be in a room of her constituents, who voted for her, moving from group to group to hear what it is they all talk about.

This is one of the ways moneyed folk like to express male immaturity, sick "practical jokes".

Re: Hello Dante? What Level Is This?
I'm not buying this for one second. You don't get to the Gold medal match and then not make weight. I read nothing but insincerity from Modi. I hope she can leave India.
Indian Wrestler Vinesh Phogat Is Disqualified From Gold Medal Match
Indian officials said she failed to make her weight class by a few grams. Last year, she was the face of a protest against a powerful Indian sports official.
The Indian wrestler Vinesh Phogat was disqualified from competing in a gold medal bout at the Paris Olympics after she failed to make weight by just a few grams, the Indian Olympic Association said on Wednesday.
Phogat, who became one of the faces of high-profile protests against a powerful sports official accused of sexually harassing female wrestlers in India last year, was scheduled to compete against Sarah Hildebrandt of the United States for a gold medal in the 50-kilogram weight class on Wednesday.
But early Wednesday morning, the Indian Olympic Association announced on X that “despite the best efforts by the team through the night, she weighed in a few grams over 50 kilograms this morning.”
Early last year, Phogat was one of three Indian wrestlers who accused Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, then the president of India’s wrestling federation, of sexual harassment. Phogat, along with Olympic medalists Bajrang Punia and Sakshi Malik, staged a series of public protests against Singh on behalf of seven young female wrestlers who had reported being harassed.
They staged a protest camp that was violently dismantled by the police, and they were dragged to detention. Later, the wrestlers threatened to throw their medals, including two Olympic bronzes, into the Ganges River.
The Olympics website now says that Hildebrandt will compete against Cuba’s Yusneylis Guzmán Lopez, who had lost to Phogat in the semifinal, for the gold medal.
Narendra Modi, India’s prime minister, said that Phogat’s “setback hurts.” In a statement on X, he said, “I wish words could express the sense of despair that I am experiencing.”

I think she will be fine ..there will be a nice blame-game but nothing else. She is still a heroine in India, takes more than one bad loss.

I think Indian officials won't let her compete because she burned them.
