Senate

He takes them to active conflict zones, where rival factions quarrel with each other over where corporations try to expand their influence upon helpless worlds.

All of these places are neglected by the Jedi, all because the Senate does not deem them important enough.

As they talk to the people, they all discuss the same thing, how the Jedi have gone distant.

They rule far away from Coruscant and leave the people there to suffer.

As Dooku steps back and Obi-Wan takes over his training, many in the Jedi Order decide that Anakin is ready to take part in missions.

Not only does this allow him to cut his teeth on the battlefield, these are missions in support of the Republic rather than simply being mercy missions.

They are sanctioned by the Senate and are careful to avoid causing too much controversy with their methods.

This keeps the pair busy, but allows Dooku to abandon the Jedi Order without anyone noticing.

In 232 B.C. Flaminius carried a law for the distribution of land taken from the Senones among the plebs.

Though the law turned out no possessors, it was opposed by the Senate and nobles.

Nor is this surprising, for any law distributing land was both actually and as a precedent a blow to the interests of the class which practiced occupation.

What is at first sight surprising is that small parcels of land, such as must have been assigned in these distributions, should have been so coveted.

But when the fall of Carthage freed Rome from all rivals and conquest after conquest filled the treasury, increased luxury made the means of ostentation more greedily sought.

Office meant plunder, and to gain office men bribed and bribed every day on a vaster scale.

If we said that optimates signified the men who bribed and abused office under the banner of the Senate and its connections, and that populares meant men who bribed and abused office with the interests of the people outside the senatorial pale upon their lips, we might do injustice to many good men on both sides, but should hardly be slandering the parties.

Parties in fact they were not; they were factions, and the fact that it is by no means easy always to decide how far individuals were swayed by good or bad motives, where good motives were so often paraded to mask base actions, does not disguise their despicable character.

For, by the strength which it acquired under his management, it became so respectable that, during forty years after, it enjoyed profound peace and security.

He stood, however, much higher in the favor of the people than he did in that of the senate, and was yet more beloved by his army.

He established a bodyguard of three hundred men, whom he called Celeres; and these he kept constantly about his person, in time of peace as well as war.

Such were his achievements in his mortal state.

On the other hand, the original Romans spurned the thought of a foreigner being placed on the throne.

Notwithstanding this diversity in their views, yet all concurred in wishing for a king; for they had not yet tasted the sweets of liberty.

The senate now began to fear, lest, as the sentiments of many of the neighboring states were very unfriendly towards them, some foreign power might attack them, while the state was destitute of a government, and the army destitute of a commander.

Every one, therefore, was desirous that there should be some head, but no one party could be induced to give way to another.

The timestamps overlap twice.

on the morning of september 11th ahmad was meeting with safari club founder and former dci george bush senior and the chairman of the senate intelligence committees which included congressman porter goss the next dci who was appointed by bush's son president george w bush The general would retire from his position shortly after the money transfer was exposed.

That is the amount they got caught involved with.

It does not mean there was it more that they were not caught laundering.

Maybe they were working with them and that they branched off and didn't share a lot of information because there's very little information besides what we have with the redacted reports of the FBI.

But the Shea memorandum is huge because it actually names names.

And Gerald Shea, what he did was basically on his own dime, run an independent investigation on all the police reports from the southwest to northeast regarding all these israeli intelligence rings that were operating as art student rates and basically he gave this document to the national commission on terrorist attacks known as the 911 uh commission and the senate and house committees on intelligence as well as the joint house inquiry and they basically did

yes

Of course, he overpaid and he won.

He was escorted into the Senate House that evening as Emperor of Rome.

He ruled for just 66 days.

He could not actually pay what he had promised.

Whatever the exact figure, the trajectory is clear.

In 238 CE, the year of six emperors, Gordon I and his sons declare in Africa, but only last 22 days.

The Senate appoints two emperors who are murdered by the Praetorians within a few months.

And then a 13-year-old ends up on the throne.
