I just can't understand for the life of me why anyone can have a positive opinion on such an ogre. How on earth can a sentient human being like him?

Everything about her and everything about the way he interacts with her and everything about their relationship and everything about the US president going around the world with arm candy decades and decades younger than him is just thoroughly grotesque before you even consider that she's a cultist

It's shocking to me that many Scots either don't know or don't care of how much Scotland puts into UK and how little we get back, then there's our resources that are exported through English ports and credited to WM not Scotland, all to keep us thinking we're too poor to be independent.

Ultimately, because BlackCore operates strictly on an "influence-for-hire" basis, the true identity of the client remains obscured behind shell companies.

Another example of how the legacy media exploit voters' lack of knowledge about what is devolved v reserved, and how this leads to the Scottish Govt being blamed for things that go wrong, and Westminster credited with things that go well, regardless of which arm of Govt is responsible.

Russia is a degenerate terrorist state. This Evil is the role model for the USA. Unfortunately, this is not the expression of anger from an online activist, but an empirical fact. Russia must be expelled from the Security Council if the UN and international law are to have any chance of survival.

"Flooding the zone" with this stuff might be in order.
Post from Mark R Elias 

"I think I'm getting the hang of this."

Mark's question to America.gov

Does the president have the authority over the conduct of federal elections,?

Answer:
The Constitution does not give the president the power to run or set the rules for federal elections. States have the main job if administering them. Congress can change most of those rules by statue. The president's role is to enforce existing federal law, not to replace state or congressional election rules.

The press have decided to reimpose the two party model and unfortunately, that requires “pretending to believe Kemi Badenoch is doing a good job”. Which is pretty bad, given she’s a disastrously online wacko.
