Ok, it was a settlement , not a fine. Fact is that it was not for discussing possible vulnerabilities of the Dominion machines, it was for knowingly pushing the big lie (including the Dominion component of the big lie). You used a lame confusion tactic. The rest of your post is also irrelevant. There is no proof the 2020 election was rigged. All attempts: lawsuits, recounts, and audits have miserably failed.

The usual MAGA lame confusion tactic. 😀 Fox News did not pay a fine for claiming that Dominion software may have had vulnerabilities. They paid a fine because they diffused the big lie, knowing it was a lie. Oh and the guy who did the demo with a pen was given the software and analysed it in a lab for months before that. 😀

What are you all ranting about? The O.P. is not at all about giving Gibraltar to Spain or not. 😁 The issue is about letting the Spanish police doing controls at the airport. It makes sense as, under the expected agreement, any entry into Gibraltar would be an entry into the Shengen area. Of course, this detail about passport control may also be a symbolic issue for both Spain and UK.

And It's not like your post would be a desperate attention to distract attention away from Trump with a false equivalence! 🤣

On top of it, Gaza is a popular destination for tourists, and famous for its golf resorts! 🤣

Life can be as easy as making two phone calls for Trump. One call to China: "print me 120,000 bible's. Don't worry about the quality, It's for suckers. Don't forget they must include the constitution and the declaration of independence!" One call to Oklahoma: "for your 55,000 bibles call for tenders, don't forget to specify that only bibles with the constitution and the declaration of independence will be accepted!" 😃 Those are imaginary calls, of course, the real news is below (in addition to the OP and the quoted post) Oklahoma amends request for Bibles that initially appeared to match only version backed by Trump https://apnews.com/article/oklahoma-bible-schools-trump-amend-99bec8ed6b67acd2d836913783c4fe7b As they got caught, they had to amend the specifications so that other bibles could be also considered. The mentioned historical documents can be supplied separately, this meaning the competitive offers must include a bible + a copy of the constitution, etc... which is only an artificial way to make competitive offers more expensive, as these historical focuments are already widely available in libraries. And graciously, they only extends the deadline for offers to supply the items by one week, from Oct. 14 to Oct. 21. 😃

You forget a 'small detail' already mentioned in several posts.

Yawn....

Thaksin doesn't need support from many people. One is enough...

Another case of lame deflection! 😀 You wrote: "There was peace in the region under Trump", you did not specify Iran! On top of it, the OP stresses the role of Iran's allies, and cites the Houtis as an example! So it's quite relevant re. the OP.

Sure! Everybody knows the Houti have nothing to do with Iran! 🤣

There was also no peace in Yemen, incl. the Houti hitting several targets in Saudi Arabia.

So Musk would have been an illegal immigrant? That's not possible!. There must be a MAGA conspiracy theory to explain it! 😃

Other countries have not been spared... https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/12/30/france-russia-interference-far-right/ https://www.ifri.org/fr/presse-contenus-repris-sur-le-site/frances-yellow-vests-and-russian-trolls-encourage-them

There are two charters, the PLO charter, usually called the Palestinian National Charter, which has been amended several times, and the Hamas charter. Which one are you talking about? Up to my knowledge, the Palestinian National Charter does not refer to sharia law. You also conveniently avoided to specify which Palestinian leadership you were referring to: the Hamas or the Palestinian authority?

Which leadership? Hamas or PA? Which charter? Hamas?

"Keep the Germans down" has been obsolete for decades. Actually, Germany really benefited from not having to finance an extensive military, and rather concentrating on the economy. The other two reasons are still relevant. They are all the more relevant as most European people prefer to keep Russians out, even if it means keeping Americans in. Having said that, it's true that the ideal option for Europe and Russia would have been an alliance between them. It would have allowed them to weight enough to counterbalance the power of the U.S. and China. Europe would be in a much better shape and Russia would be like California. It did not work this way, in particular as Russia is governed by an incompetent leader who is focused on the past. (Of course, Western countries also share some responsibilities in this failure). The outcome is Europe being too dependent on the U.S., and Russia becoming a vassal of China. Obviously, being dependent on the U.S. is a much lesser evil.

B.S.! Nothing secret about project Citrus, it was publicly known from the 50s. And it was about cloud seeding. In 1952, General Electric published its own "History of Project Cirrus", compiled by Barrington Havens of G.E.'s public relations department. https://archives.albany.edu/description/catalog/ua902-010aspace_5ffdd0d7156d14616da5066f040d4f1f

“They said the laptop from hell was from Russia, and I said, ‘It wasn’t from Russia. It was from Hunter,’” he added. “And I never got an apology.” https://www.aol.com/trump-demands-apology-60-minutes-012114104.html Trump lying, as usual! 😃

Ok. However, Trump now claims she said the laptop was from Russia, which she didn't.

The EU is not desperate, and UK and the EU have similar interests (ex. Ukraine). Moreover, the issues concerning the EU are more about industrial policy, procurement policy, joint initiatives, strategic reserves, etc... Real defense issues, such as participation to NATO, joint brigades, etc... are dealt with at the member States level, not the EU level.

That was the cold war time. It is obvious that the U.S. considered a united Europe as the best way to oppose the influence or threat from the Communist Soviet Union.

According to your source, she did not directly claim the laptop was fake, she denied that Biden was in the mist of the scandal. She justified her reply by the fact that she could not verify the content, which was true as Giuliani only gave a copy to the NYPost at that time. Quote from the article: At the time, Trump insisted that then-candidate Joe Biden was "in the midst of a scandal," referring to reports about the email's contents showing his involvement in his son's overseas business dealings. "He's not," Stahl replied. "Of course he is, Lesley," Trump sternly doubled down. "No, c'mon," Stahl continued to reject the president's claim, before lecturing him, "This is '60 Minutes' and we can't put on things that we can't verify." Interestingly enough, the article confirms that CBS was only able to verify the content in 2022, after it got a copy!

A master fleeced! His pals also managed to guarantee a market for these Chinese bibles!

Fact is that Giuliani gave the laptop content only to the NYPost, one year after a received it. Why did he wait to release it until a few days before the election? Why only to the biased RW NYPost? It seems Giuliani made all he could to make it look like a Russian disinformation. It looks like even Giuliani was not so confident to get the content checked by an in-depth forensic analysis! 😃
