Well the thread topic is about elections and about the electoral commission and the supreme court making decisions about elections.....

Mogandave Yellowtail, you should know... unless you think it was just a special operation! 😆

Suuure! And it's not like martial law would be of any interest when a country is continuously invaded and bombed! BTW, the parliament has voted to postpone elections.

A well written piece of Russian/MAGA propaganda!

China bad is your cult leader's mantra (the American one, not the Russian one)!

I cannot because there is no EU law mandating how member States must hold national elections. So your argument is invalid.

So what are those imaginary EU laws about holding elections in member states?

The usual propaganda B.S. It's low but Republican are not faring much better at 36%. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/03/16/politics/cnn-poll-democrats/index.html?iid=cnn-mobile-app&iid=cnn-mobile-app Let's wait for the impact of Trump tariffs on inflation and how the job market will evolve.

Voters' Ratings On Economy And Trump Dip, Trade And Russia - Ukraine War Weigh On Trump's Numbers, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; Majority Disapprove Of Trump's Handling Of Zelensky Meeting https://poll.qu.edu/poll-release?releaseid=3921 Twenty-three percent of voters describe the state of the nation's economy these days as either excellent (1 percent) or good (22 percent), and 76 percent describe it as either not so good (45 percent) or poor (31 percent). This is a change from Quinnipiac University's December 2024 poll when 34 percent described it as either excellent (3 percent) or good (31 percent) and 64 percent described it as either not so good (31 percent) or poor (33 percent).

You mean agenda such as strong growth, low unemployment, lowered inflation, significant productivity increase, high energy production and exports, etc...?

Too bad, she's such a nice person (sarcasm alert)... 🤣 “MESSAGE TO JEWS AND AMERICANS AND FRENCH ETC.: I AM NOT AFRAID OF YOU! I WILL NOT STOP! I WILL NOT BE SILENT! YOU WILL HAVE TO KILL ME AND EVEN THEN I WILL NOT BE SILENT, FOR MY VOICE SHALL REAR FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE!” Șoșoacă wrote (yes, all caps) on her website. https://www.politico.eu/article/romanian-far-right-mep-banned-president/

Only in the MAGA alternate universe!

The kill switch is an extreme scenario. There are several other ways which can be used to degrade the performance of the F-35, as explained in this article. https://theaviationist.com/2025/03/10/f-35-kill-switch-myth/

Putin started a war..

That trash article is an example of what MAGAs are calling "doing one's own research"!

Trump is getting wet dreams about Russia's resources but forgot that Europe is one of the three world's largest market...

Countries with nuclear sharing agreement under NATO, such as Germany, ordered F-35 because it was the only new generation fighter certified to carry U.S. nuclear bombs. On this aspect, they may well become useless. https://www.eurasiantimes.com/amid-transatlantic-rift-germany-fears-for-its-f-35-order/?amp https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/german-policymakers-concerned-american-kill-switch-disable-f35

That's the main issue. Countries equipped with F-35 are at the mercy of the U.S. if they want to use it. It may not brick them but at least degrade the system by not providing updates.

Dumbest thing? Maybe for the time being....

Fake outrage by someone who sees nothing wrong with assaulting the Capitol in an attempt to steal the 2020 election! That's laughable!

Nothing new. I posted this forecast last year. It's been predicted to go down, but may go up again later, depending on sanctions on Iran and Venezuela, and/or if OPEC decides again to restrict production.

Crime of lèse-Trump!

Oil price are going down, as forecasted last year after the decision by SA to increase production in order to regain market share, as well as a decreasing demand. https://www.rigzone.com/news/usa_eia_lowers_2024_and_2025_brent_oil_price_forecast-12-dec-2024-179013-article/

The problem is that, since Brexit, UK cannot be a useful troyan horse in the EU any more. So not so much value for the U.S.

I am surprised Trump hasn't already blamed Zelinski for it!
