As hard as it is to believe, that is the actual position of the so-called law and order party.

America, you need to rein this in before it gets out of control. This is a clear out of those who might "question" leaving only "yes" men. Also a "slim" army is not necessarily a professional army.

Came across a documentary about the French revolution so I decided to learn more about the reasons behind it. This is what AI said. Very applicable to today's US. I had to amend it a little but otherwise it looks similar. Debt, ruling rich ckass, a king, no gov., rising prices, war costs...

For all the wealthy businessmen who have paid bribes to the Trump Regime for lucrative government contracts, please don't claim to have been the 'victims' of Trumps extortion. You chose to pay to get those contracts. Don't even think of playing the 'victim' card. Straight to jail.

The Trump Regime should not be posting details about the airforce base incident in the UK. The British are the investigators and are limiting information. Marco Rubio and Trump discussing it, without any actual facts, is ignorant and unhelpful. It's Trump wanting to be the centre of everything.

Looking at the reports about Kimberly Guilfoyle/ Greece & Romania, I think every US "ally" should face up to the fact that the US is no longer an "ally".

Trump rejects Iranian plan to open the Straight of Hormuz. I think the US people should have a say. How can one man be allowed to decide on behalf of the world? Average US Joe is suffering. None of this affects Trump so he doesn't care.

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

Trump has turned the US into a socialist dictatorship. So much for private enterprise. Same as always, privatise the profits, socialise the debt.

We always knew the US president held great power to affect the world. Most previous presidents understood that power and made a conscious decision not to abuse it or use against the world. Until now. And the motivation is not some righteous belief, it's simply ignorance and pure greed.

Trumps "deal" on Denmark sounds similar to the existing 1951 agreement, especially in relation to US forces deployment. The worry for Denmark is that you cannot trust Trump on anything. He has the trust levels of Putin.

It's as clear as mud that Russia is doing It's absolute best, bar an all out attack, to provoke Europe. Europe needs to "up" it's diplomacy to bring the US back on the side of the West. Europeans should be engaging bi-partisan contacts in the US Congress as there is no hope trying to engage Trump.

I had a quick look at some of my early posts. I mentioned long before Trump was re-elected that if he was, it would be the greatest heist, theft and corruption in world history. I didn't realise I would be so accurate.

I know next to nothing about AI. If it has the potential to cause harm to humanity, does it not at the same time have the potential to stop that from happening. It's a technology, like all, that will carry out a task. So if that task is to stop other AI attacks, can it not do that too?

1/5 Europe is sleepwalking into an extremely dangerous period. The window between mid-2027 and early 2029 will likely be the most critical for Western security in decades, yet Europe and Taiwan have less than a year to prepare before a massive storm erupts

The thing about Trump is… a well functioning country would never in a million years elect a guy like him, let alone twice.. he is the sum total of our decay and degradation of standards.

I have just finished reading Uncle Tom's Cabin. I understand this is widely read in US schools over many years. I think most Americans should have another read over the final chapter, particularly in the context of the current US. The topic may have differed but the message remains for Christians

Uefa is right to call the Trump/ Infantino/ Kushner corruption out. Without Uefa teams the world cup would be a second rate competition. They should simply refuse to be involved and make the euros the premier football competition. If the south American teams boycott, then all the better.

Trump restores tariffs. The media reports using experts to 'discuss' them. Why do they bother trying to rationalise or analyse them. Two points: 1. They will always be bad for international business incl. the US 2. They will not improve the US trade deficit or significantly improve manufacturing
