Got back last night after completing the sale of my place over there (and ensuring the cash was in my bank account in the UK).

And told you you never see a poor farmer!

People who post frustrations with policies of Starmer, Sunak, Truss, Johnson, May, Cameron etc = not having any problems generally entering the UK. Ditto most of the EU, Canada, Aus, NZ etc.

French scientist who criticised specific aspects DOGE relating to cutting indirect cost rates for labs, which is a MAGA POLICY = denied entry.

It is bad but I just want Americans to suffer so much as result of this fucker. Even though impacts me I still like seeing the DOW and S&P fall

There does need to be a deterrent. They want to see chaos but it not effect them.

NBC poll still finding that only 2% regret their vote, although his approval ratings are very low by Presidential standards.

Wasting your time Gloucester telling them not equivalent. Like MAGA responding what about George Floyd when highlighting they support ting putting a felon in the White House

Well, how do you think I could afford to buy a farm? But yes, I get your point.

When the Trump regime does things beneficial to public wellbeing, I will praise and give them credit https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/crld4egrkrxo

Trump is now coming across as King Canute. As if Putin gives a stuff about what Trump thinks.

Ahh, the usual misunderstanding of Cnut. The whole point of the tide thing was to prove to his courtiers that he wasn't all powerful, and could not command the tide to turn. Mind you, Trump seems unable to convince his handler to do anything.

Whenever I read about Trump saying he will negotiate a deal between Russia and Ukraine, I can't help but think of this.

After fundingcl cuts to the VA, and in the wake of the other cross-departmental budget reductions and program closures, Pete Hegseth has spent thousands of dollars converting a room adjacent to the Pentagon press room into a makeup studio.

Feebly asking a Russian dictator and lunatic to stop bombing another country like he’s a cat scratching furniture is not going to work.

Bombing Moscow’s power plants and shutting their capital city into darkness, that might.

We can always do it, right...or any other 1st world (NATO) nation?

[badgerx16]

Trump has said that the fact Russia has not taken over the whole of Ukraine is a concession on Putin's part.

Every time I see this thread, I'm still baffled that someone "appreciates" this prick.

We were better off getting him bumped off as an inside job, which I think would have happened if Trump hadn’t have kissed Putin’s arse. Very hard to win that war in the battlefield even with the aid Ukraine were getting but Trump has totally misread Russia and made a twat of himself with all the pronouncements around ending the war in a day or a week. New leader could be just as bad but you could get a Gorbachev.

FOX News publish this poll, Trump calls for their polling expert to be sacked;

I was speaking to a US client today.
He reckoned that Trump's new mate Mr Tesla, was able to tap into the voting machines ie those which were accused of fiddling Biden's victory, and ensured that Trump won this time round.
No idea if there is any credence in this but just suppose that Musk had been a supporter of Biden and this rumour was circulated amongst the MAGA mob, it is likely that another violent protest, stoked up by the Orange One, would have been on the cards.

Quite an interesting discussion.
The 'Russian Tail' theory was something I had never heard of before and possibly may be relevant to the Brexit vote.
Steve Bannon was apparently caught on audio prior to the 2016 US Election predicting that Trump would be ahead in the early stages of the election due to the fact that a lot of Republican voters live in small communities where it is relatively quick to collate and submit votes.
As a consequence it was agreed that Trump would declare victory midway through the vote knowing that the larger population areas were expected to vote Democrat in larger numbers.
MAGA supporters were primed to believe the election result was rigged and this they did with aplomb.

[spyinthesky]

Just read an article about a guy called Dennis Montgomery.
Anyone who hasnt heard of him, its worth a look at his background.
I reckon his story could be made into a great film, dovetailing into stories on Mike Lindell (the Pillow Man) and other snake oil salesmen and purveyors of right wing nonsense.

[badgerx16]

If you don't want to watch the whole of this video, at least watch the first embedded bit, taken inside a Court House, and then think how the image of plain clothed, masked men, with no visible ID or valid warrant, putting people into unmarked vehicles compares with Central and South American right wing dictatorships;
