  1. The Democrats propped up a gibbering buffoon in the White House, so bad that they turned on him last year and forced him out - to be replaced as a candidate by a cackling alcoholic. Do not give Democrats the time of day when they fire our these "mental state" comments. We know they are mental, they prove it here every single day.
  2. Keir Starmer has agreed to meet Trump in Scotland this month to discuss the details of the upcopming state visit. This thread is FAKE NEWS.
  3. "King Charles has invited Donald Trump to make an unprecedented second state visit to the UK in a letter handed to the US president by Keir Starmer. Queen Elizabeth II hosted Trump on a state visit in 2019. Precedent for second-term US presidents who have already made a state visit is usually tea or lunch with the monarch at Windsor Castle, as was the case for George W Bush and Barack Obama. Trump received the invitation during a meeting at the White House on Thursday, with Starmer presenting the letter from the king. In the letter, which Trump showed to the cameras in the Oval Office, Charles suggested he and Trump could meet beforehand at Dumfries House or Balmoral, which are near Trump’s golf courses in Scotland, to discuss the plans for the much grander visit." I suggest some of you do some basic research before commenting - second state visits have not been hosted at Buckingham Palace in the past.
  4. Utter self-delusional nonsense. BRICS has been nothing but aggressive since it's formation including substantial expansion when Biden was President. Attack Trump on facts, not delusional lies.
  5. BRICS was formed in 2009 when Barack Obama was President. It was formed as a coalition to compete with US "hegemony." You need to do some basic research before posting. Or blame Obama - up to you. What does Brics mean and who are the new members? In 2006, Brazil, Russia, India and China created the "Bric" group. South Africa joined in 2010, making it "Brics". The group was designed to bring together the world's most important developing countries, to challenge the political and economic power of the wealthier nations of North America and Western Europe. Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were invited to become members with effect from 1 January 2024.
  6. And he should make himself a hero by naming them all. But he's hiding behind "a court ordrred."
  7. Listen to this D4 accented Irish woman claiming she is Palestinian. Utterly deranged.
  8. Seamus - let's go to Berlin and pretend we're Palestinian. I can show off my skills from the acting classes Mom funded - and annoy the famously lax German police. Anyway - how it started -
  9. Reports floating that Dan Bongino is on the edge of resigning due to.yhe Epstein farce. He blames Pamela Bondi for overpromising and under delivering. This is a genuine MAGA crisis. Trump will need to be on his toes to navigate this one.
  10. By the way - no serious economist has ever predicted that the full tariffs would be paid by US consumers. Manufacturers and importers are taking a haircut. Democrats are enraged that inflation is dropping and the idea of a budget surplus? Dear me, landslide territory for Trump at the midterms
  11. If he goes and the new chairman drops the interest rate it could save half a trillion dollars in debt financing - and catnip the economy.
  12. Jerome Powell's resignation looks imminent. Politico has reported tariff inflation has not arrived - calling into question his judgment. Tariff inflation hasn't shown up. Here's why it matters for Trump and the Fed. The debate over how and when the tariffs will affect prices has divided central bank policymakers over the trajectory for interest rates.
  13. You mean - the drop in inflation rate now heading to 1.66% annualized? Anyway, I knew someone would moan about this. Some people are not happy until they are unhappy.
  14. The first surplus in 20 years. No doubt our resident brigade of poison dwarves will be along to tell us how this is a bad thing. $26 billion surplus - congratulations to those who put their trust in Trump to rebalance the economy.
  15. Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge
