It's my opinion that the men's part of this is a real event, and the women's part is intended to fail, so that when it does fail, they can go off about "triggered much" and so on. It's what they actually believe, mind you. Never forget that. But it's intended to fail.
But nonetheless, all I can think about is how the right woman with the right sniper rifle could eliminate so _very_ many problems, all for a mere $2000.
Mansplaining convention coming to Orlando promises to 'Make Women Great Again'

"Women today are being taught to act more like men," says the 22 Convention website, which they say has led to divorce, depression, dysfunction, and rampant single motherhood. "No longer will you have to give in to toxic bullying feminist dogma and go against your biological nature," say organizers.
...
Topics the men will discuss include the ills of feminism, the war on motherhood, beauty and obesity, love and dating, getting pregnant and having "unlimited babies," getting in shape, beating the competition to "become the ultimate wife," and boosting femininity.
...
And a woman acting this way confuses the order of things and ruins the world, say organizers. Only men can say what is proper womanly behavior.

Trump Has Now Shifted $1.7 Million From Campaign Donors To His Private Business
https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2019/12/06/trump-has-now-shifted-17-million-from-campaign-donors-to-his-private-business/
The Trump campaign is spending big money at the president’s properties, according to a review of Federal Election Commission data. Yet the records show that Donald Trump still has not donated any of his own funds to the campaign. That means America’s billionaire-in-chief has shifted $1.7 million from campaign donors into his private business.
Forbes first reported on this arrangement one year ago, when documents showed that Trump’s companies had taken in $1.1 million of campaign-donor money. By the end of 2018, that figure had climbed to $1.3 million. Subsequent disclosures show that more than $450,000 flowed into the Trump empire from January to September of this year.
The biggest beneficiary has been Trump Tower Commercial LLC, which controls the president’s famous Manhattan skyscraper. Trump still owns the entity, which has accepted $1.2 million in rent from the reelection effort and another $225,000 from the Republican National Committee. Since Trump became president, an estimated 1.6% of the tower’s revenue has come from either the RNC or the reelection campaign. The majority of Trump Tower’s income comes from Gucci, which leases 49,000 square feet of prime retail space on Fifth Avenue for roughly $21 million a year.

White Settlement shooter demanded money from the church several times before he shot it up: report
https://www.rawstory.com/2019/12/white-settlement-shooter-demanded-money-from-the-church-several-times-before-he-shot-it-up-report/
On Tuesday, The Daily Beast reported that the man implicated in the fatal shooting on Sunday at the West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, Texas received assistance from the church in the past — but also demanded cash from them on several occasions, and was rebuffed.
Minister Britt Farmer told The Christian Chronicle that the suspect, Keith Thomas Kinnunen, was recognizable as the man who visited their congregation for assistance — despite the fact that the photo showed him “wearing a disguise that included a fake beard, a wig, a long coat, and hat.”
