  1. Some peoples minds seem to have been chemically castrated.
  2. Trump literally said as he ambushed the South African president the "white crosses are burial sites of thousands of white farmers". So you read his comments with different words? How does one do that if not existing is some parallel universe of reality? A recent news verification of those "thousands of white farmer burial sites" that the POTUS referred to, found out they were a former temporary memorial display to honor two farmers who had been killed there.
  3. And you fell for the lies and exaggerated rhetoric hook line and sinker? You know the difference between graves and temporary memorial crosses on the P39-1 stretch of highway in that video mash up, much like you know that MS-13 photo wasn't photoshopped yeah? Looks like they got you where they want you.
  4. I am not clear on latest regulations, but we used to spend weeks at temples in Laos back in the 90's as foreigners as there was no where else to stay. Key thing to mind, as this guy didn't was that the visa was current and of the correct type.
  5. I thought the narrative was the foreigners eat the tariffs:-)
  6. Great to see you've finally come to your senses and stopped the anti vax nonsense posting. A true convert 🙂
  7. The timing of the Biden-Hur tape release, highlighting Biden's cognitive struggles, seems less about questioning past leadership and more about political strategy for 2028. The current administration may be leveraging these tapes to shift focus from their own challenges, using Biden's decline to rally their base or discredit Democratic prospects, with posts on X suggesting it’s a calculated move to shape voter perceptions ahead of the next election cycle. It’s classic gutter politics—using Biden’s cognitive decline as a cheap shot to score points for 2028, less about truth and more about manipulating voter sentiment. Something the right excel at of late.
  8. How do you know he isn't focused on Canada? He was simply answering a question asked that wasn't about Canada and answered it in a diplomatic way, something his neighboring nemesis could learn from.
  9. This is a parody bot account, come clean. No one could spout the amount of nonsense you do in one day and hold down a day job.
  10. Many would view Trump’s remarks as distasteful and disrespectful, particularly given the context. Mocking the commemorations of V-E Day, which honors the sacrifice and cooperation of Allied nations in defeating Nazi Germany, can be deeply offensive to countries like France, which suffered heavy civilian and military losses, endured Nazi occupation, and played a role in the resistance. Downplaying their experience or mocking their pride in liberation is likely to strike a nerve, especially in Europe, where the scars of WWII remain very present in public memory. Also, imitating a foreign leader's accent—even jokingly—tends to be seen as undiplomatic and culturally insensitive, especially for someone who has held the office of President of the United States. More broadly, Trump’s tone—sarcastic, dismissive, and self-congratulatory—undermines the spirit of unity that defined the Allied efforts in WWII. While it's true that the U.S. played a decisive role, the war was won through the collective sacrifice of multiple nations. Presidents and leaders are typically expected to honor that shared history with respect and humility. Many observers—especially veterans, historians, and international partners—would find these comments inappropriate, if not offensive.
  11. Is it a western propaganda machine or fact? I was led to believe all the following were facts? Disinformation and Propaganda False Claims about Macron: Russia spread false claims that Macron was using cocaine on a train ride, part of a broader pattern of disinformation. Military Actions and Conflicts Invasion of Ukraine (2022): Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine, leading to significant loss of life and displacement. Support for Separatist Groups: Russia has continued to support separatist groups in Eastern Ukraine, fueling ongoing conflict. Cyber Attacks and Espionage Sandworm Hacking Campaign: Russian state-sponsored hacking group APT44 (Sandworm) targeted critical organizations and governments in a multi-year campaign. Humanitarian Crises Downing of MH17 (2014): Russia-backed separatists shot down Malaysian Airlines flight MH17, killing 298 civilians. Other Controversies Interference in Foreign Elections: Russia has been accused of interfering in numerous foreign elections, including in the US and Europe. Support for Authoritarian Regimes: Russia has provided support to authoritarian regimes, including in Syria, Belarus and Myanmar. Human Rights Abuses: Russia has faced criticism for human rights abuses, including treatment of LGBTQ+ individuals and opposition figures. Annexation of Crimea (2014): Russia annexed Crimea, a Ukrainian peninsula, in a move widely condemned by the international community. Poisoning of Alexei Navalny (2020): Russia was accused of poisoning opposition leader Alexei Navalny with a nerve agent. Come on Frank, surely all the above wasn't propaganda was it? Have you thought it thro?
  12. A screw loose for not escaping on time? You speak from experience?
  13. For it is written in the book of Two Corinthians, I'm sure you'd agree.
  14. I see it more as a blend of satire, harsh criticism, and biting wit. Where is there any hate in this? The author uses exaggerated imagery and caricature to drive home their point that America has gone from the king of the hill to the punchline in the room.
  15. Will you accept the polling results?
  16. Such an unhinged viewpoint of one the best TV programs of the era. Sorry you cannot understand it.
  17. When I went thro the process at CW many years ago, before I could apply for a Non Imm O based on marriage I had to first get a 60 day extension of my existing permit to stay based on marriage. Was always like this wasn't it?
  18. Yet all Trump has said is "its a shame", a bit like someones grandmother might say when their offspring have been up to some mischief.
  19. So Bessent was lying when he said on Apr-2 the tariffs were the ceiling and not to retaliate?
  20. Jon Voight, named a “special ambassador” to Hollywood by President Trump in January 2025, significantly influenced the 100% tariff proposal on foreign films announced on May 4, 2025. Voight, along with his manager Steven Paul and SP Media Group’s Scott Karol, met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, presenting a “comprehensive plan” to boost U.S. film production. This plan included federal tax incentives, co-production treaties, and infrastructure subsidies, but only mentioned tariffs “in certain limited circumstances.” Trump’s subsequent announcement of a sweeping 100% tariff exceeded Voight’s proposal, suggesting Trump amplified the tariff idea beyond Voight’s intent. Sources, including Politico and NBC News, credit Voight with planting the tariff concept, though Trump framed it as his own initiative, citing national security and Hollywood’s decline. Voight’s recent film career, with roles in lower-profile projects like Man with No Past and High Ground, lacks the critical or commercial weight of his earlier work (Midnight Cowboy, Coming Home). Similarly, Trump’s other ambassadors, Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson, are known for action and conservative-leaning genre films, limiting their representation of the diverse film industry. This narrow focus raises questions about their suitability to shape policy for an art form that thrives on global perspectives and creative freedom. The arts, including film, are often seen as a liberal domain, reflecting global events and cultural exchange. Tariffs threatening international collaboration could stifle creativity and economic viability, as many U.S. films rely on foreign locations for authenticity and cost savings. Critics on X and industry experts argue that such protectionism ignores the globalized nature of storytelling, potentially harming Hollywood more than helping it. Voight’s influence, while notable, appears to have been a starting point for Trump’s broader, more punitive policy, which risks undermining the industry’s liberal and global ethos.
  21. Excellent if true. They had it coming... Way to go. #morons. A leading immunologist, Dr. Paul Offit, has warned that the world is entering a "post-herd-immunity world" due to measles outbreaks in the US, Mexico, and Canada. The US is experiencing its largest measles outbreak in a quarter-century, with over 900 confirmed cases and nearly 300 hospitalizations. The outbreaks in the Americas have led to a tenfold increase in measles cases compared to the previous year. The US eliminated measles in 2000, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that as of 1 May 2025, there were 935 confirmed measles cases across 30 jurisdictions. Immunologists fear that the rate of infection and unnecessary suffering from measles will increase due to misleading claims about vaccines and vaccine-preventable diseases spread by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the US health secretary's hostility towards Covid-19 vaccines.
  22. Such a bizarre and twisted logic runs amok inside your mind. Everything seems to be in reverse logic mode. Is it meds or something?
  23. Do you understand what Photoshopped means? It seems clear from all your responses this is a challenge for you.
  24. All I'm reading here is negativity and whinging, no input. Not British are you?
  25. It's amazing people can be duped by President like this, when he is surrounded by sycophants all preaching the same lies and no one points out the errors of his ways. The tattoos on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles—a marijuana leaf, smiley face, cross, and skull—do not definitively indicate MS-13 membership, according to multiple gang experts and researchers. The Trump administration's claim, amplified by a digitally altered photo labeling these tattoos as "M," "S," "1," and "3," suggests they spell out "MS-13." Experts like Steven Dudley of InSight Crime and Roberto Lovato, who has studied MS-13, state these symbols are not known MS-13 signifiers and are commonly used in mainstream tattoo culture. Some law enforcement officials note that certain symbols, like a marijuana leaf, have appeared on gang members, but they are not exclusive to MS-13 and are insufficient alone to prove affiliation. Current MS-13 members consulted by Lovato also denied these tattoos represent the gang. The narrative tying these tattoos to MS-13 appears largely driven by the Trump administration, with critics pointing out the lack of concrete evidence and the photo's alteration as misleading. Meanwhile, Garcia’s legal team and family deny any gang ties, and no court has definitively ruled him a gang member based on these tattoos.
