    Just when you think they can't say anything more stupid/insulting/ridiculous (I was going to add "delete as applicable" but sometimes they manage to tick all those boxes) they think of something. That one in particular really hurts. But I'd imagine it hurts the families of the dead service people more. C u n t.

    One of the problems is that when you throw so much crap around so often, the individual piles of crap, which in a normal world would be debated, in fact get replaced by the next crap and it all becomes normalised. I am very worried.

    Just a reminder about NATO Article 5 (Collective Self Defence). It's the one that basically says an attack on one member is an attack on all. It has only been invoked once since the founding of NATO which was by.... the US on 12 September 1991 (after 9/11). The point is of course that NATO was great when they wanted it. And J D ****face has clearly forgotten British troops fighting (and dying) alongside Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan, partly as a result. Indeed, during the US' ludicrously badly planned exit from Afghanistan, British troops almost fought Americans.

    The Republicans are intentionally attacking and insulting traditional US allies.
    They're isolating the country, destroying their economy and tearing down it's government.
    It's been obvious for at least a decade that Trump is in Putin's pocket.
    That Tory MPs are now calling it out just shows how blatant it's become.

    Clear First Amendment violation. But the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know.

    Looks like Trump's tariff mania is in the other brown stuff already

    Lindor has announced they will continue to supply their chocolate to Canada, and have found a way around Trump's tariffs: by ramping up production in Europe and trading with Canada directly, rather than what they have been doing for years where the Lindt sold in Canada (and also 95% of the Lindt consumed by 'Muricans) is produced in five factories in the US, and they announced this just as Trump posted a rambling screed to his fake social media platform saying that if companies want to avoid tariffs they need to move their production to the US

    In other words, all Canadians will soon be able to enjoy Lindt knowing it was made under European food safety legislation, and that making it created new jobs - new European jobs

    What year of his presidency do we think Trump will announce he’s decided to run again for a third term? Clearly normal rules don’t apply to him so why should he care about the constitution?

    The real question for his presidency is when does he stop being president for the more traditional reasons?

    (Or when does generative AI stop trying to butt into my sentences...?)

    The obvious sign of being hooked to an IV last week, the fact he can hardly stand let alone complete a sentence, and the drastic reduction in his rally schedule to practically none all point to him being in clear decline

    And that's without considering the other traditional reason for his presidency ending...

    America is capitalism in action. What's more capitalist than a monopoly?

    1. The Falklands conflict is the last time the UK
    fought in anger of its own account in a matter
    that had nothing to do with those other than the
    combatants.

    And that was 40+ years ago.

    Which is in contrast to the past 1990 era
    (where the UK has been involved in conflicts
    that have/had the potential to be "forever wars" ) .

    If my countrymen have to die on foreign fields,
    I'd much rather it be in the cause of the former
    and not the latter.


    2. I have no problems acknowledging that as a
    west European, the reason my nation never was a
    satellite state of the USSR is solely due to the USA.
