The European Union was absolutely not set up to ‘screw’ the US. It has provided secure and reliable markets for US goods and a stable trading environment. That’s why the US has always, until this year, supported it.

He’s a traitor. And I htink its important we stop talking just about ‘Trump’ and realise that this is the Republican party. Fundamentally everything needs to be attached to the Republicans not just Trump - they are traitors too and they go down for all of this. Ultimately EVERYTHING can be sheeted home to them and the Republican party have demonstrated they are not compatible with democracy and will have to be eliminated at a future date.

I think @bekloppt knows you know this, @magnus !
Anything posted that gives the words of Trump should never be assumed to be true. However it doesn’t help at all while we have the likes of @toro posting absolute crap - mods if you banned him on this thread that would help

Nah, can’t ban him for idiocy or his strange culture war obsession.
But his culture war obsession is extremely taxing, since it is close to mindless spam and exceptionally repetitious and tedious, so I get you.

It boils my piss the number of people in the news media who criticize trump’s anti-democratic perspective who have laughed about how things like the Brooks Brothers Riot showing the GOP are more “savvy”, or who acted like Stacy Abrams had some hypocrisy to explain herself over in criticizing Trump’s Stop the Steal effort after having fought the terms of her election in the courts.

It’s been on the national news since the flotilla started it’s provocation in international waters off SE Qld.
It’s funny…I’ve been hanging shit on my folks down in Tas about how they are now in China’s sights. For the years I was living over in the UK, there would always be a subtle dig from them about how the UK wasn’t safe due to terrorism and the like, to which my response was always that Tas is a insignificant island at the arse end of the world so it’s no wonder those things don’t happen down there. So yeah, I’m milking this one now just for a bit of light-hearted fun.
On the list of what the hell am I reading today :

The likes of Elbridge and the other China hawks, told me that the US had to discard support for Ukraine and political and economical conflict with Russia, because it had to focus on China and would be overstretchded otherwise. He is Trump’s advisor now. I hope he sweats now,if nothing else

I think the EU should hoard eggs to corner the market to own Trump. On top of that, countries like Ukraine and Canada should consider levy export tariffs on eggs exported to the US.

Add paranoid to his list of failings.
Probably consulted Farage to come up with that gem.
I’ve not watched the Gaza video, I’m not going to. I did watch James O’Brien’s breakdown
I’ve tried to think if there’s actually anything more disgusting and /or abhorrent I’ve ever come across. And I honestly haven’t. Some of those reports of Russian war crime stuff comes close but this another level.

Might be mistaken here, but I’m sure a certain Orange Man Baby said on numerous occasions… no more criminals are going to be allowed into the USA…!
If these reports are correct, then… well.!
Andrew Tate and brother ‘on a flight to the US from Romania’ after Trump team talks
Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have boarded a flight from Romania to the United States despite having travel restrictions placed on them, according to reports.
Romanian media outlet G4media.ro reported the Tate siblings were on a plane headed to Florida, citing “airport sources”. It comes after Trump administration officials last week reportedly tried to demand the brothers’ passports from Romanian counterparts, the Financial Times reported.
It comes after the influencer said in a series of tweets he wants to “run for Prime Minister of the UK”.

To be honest, it is just too weird to be utterly abhorrent. If you saw it anywhere, you would just dismiss it as unhinged. It is bewildering that it is coming from the White House.

My retired CSIS contact says it is 50/50 between the unhinged CIA-bro culture and a targeted purge. He leans to the first simply because most of the other mass firings have been done without any justification.
