    Incredible scenes in the USA yesterday when a legitimate Democrat Senator Alex Padilla was forcibly dragged out of a meeting and thrown to the ground and handcuffed.....all he was doing was trying to ask a question in his own State.......Trump is turning into the Wests version of Putin and not in a discreet way either....he is turning the States into a fire ball of opposites.

    Plus Trumps hot and cold approach to world politics and the new happenings in the middle east...plus his Ukrainian antics is making the world into a one minute to midnight catastrophe.

    PS......US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth has said.... that they have plans in place to take Greenland and Panama by force if necessary.....in fact plans in place for nearly every situation.

    The USA are becoming a concern regarding world peace....it's not just Russia, China, N Korea or Iran or Iraq anymore.

    When Donald Trump was sworn in as US President for a second time in January, he made a promise, "My proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker and unifier", he told his audience at home and far beyond.

    Humm well that didn't last very long did it.....this man will bring the world down around him....and he is more likely to start WW3 with a nuclear strike as anyone else.....the man is an outright thug and liar.

    He see's European States and their leaders as meaningless pawns in his game of self indulgence....look at me everyone....don't just jump ask how high.

    I fear the US could tip over into something not far short of civil war. It's certainly no longer an ally to trust.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy8d3d5l9l1o

    In case anyone hasn't heard about it, it's an agreement between the US, UK and Australia to jointly design and build the next generation of hunter-killer submarines. As design and development costs make up such a big proportion of such projects, it's got to make sense to spread that over as many boats as possible. It also serves America's strategic interests in strengthening Australia's military profile in the Pacific where China is seeking to dominate.

    There was a second survivor of the Air India crash.

    Her name was Bhoomi Chauhan and she had got caught up in traffic and arrived late at the Airport... and was not allowed to join the flight....Phew that was a near one.

    Further to my comment about Trump taking the USA to the brink of civil war, two local politicians have been shot dead in Minnesota.

    Two other local politicians have apparently been wounded in a separate attack.

    The Governor has described the killings as “politically motivated assassinations”. A “stay indoors” warning has been issued and householders have been advised not to open their doors to police unless there are two officers visible.

    There’s no information on why the attacks were carried out but all four victims are apparently Democrats.
