Ah......Links to false information from the cultists playbook on, "How to Spin Lies so that the Maga nuts will Buy into Them" (and send donations as well as buy sneakers that are made in China). Unbelievable, just how dumb are these people?

Ah, the crooked trump family laid out for all to see, no doubt with more to come. Bring it on...........

Agree that more research is needed, and this MAY be a clue as to the effects of "long Covid".......... Researchers believe long Covid sufferers, at least those who experienced severe infections, may never have managed to fully rid their bodies of the virus, allowing it to continue to replicate, or pieces to be retained, even after they had tested negative. This may lead to “persistent activation of the immune system and cause all these chronic symptoms”, Koroshetz said. An NIH study, based on autopsies, found evidence that some who had lost their lives up to 280 days after becoming infected with severe disease had died with active traces of the Covid virus. A longer course of antiviral drugs could help to wipe out any remaining pockets of the virus. A second approach is based on the theory that long Covid is primarily an autoimmune disorder. This suggests sufferers’ immune systems “rev up” to the point where they move from protect to attack mode, weakening healthy cells. Recover investigators will be testing an autoimmune treatment called intravenous gamma globulin (IVIG), which Koroshetz said “resets the immune system and is kind of an immune suppressant”. https://www.ft.com/content/ed17fac5-0af4-432d-ab1b-0a55bc789865

Sad man Dolt.

What has that got to do with anything.........even more so because most of what he has got left he has obtained through lies and fraud!! LOL

And you should learn to understand better.

I suppose the economic cycles were responsible for trumps many bankruptcies or was it poor management? Then of course there was the trump University scam, not to mention Mexico paying for the wall....and then stealing from a Charity and his recent fine for fraud, in the many millions.........I could go on but as another poster so rightly said:- "I try not to argue facts with Trump/GOP supporters for the same reason I don't bother trying to teach my dog how to drive a car". There is absolutely nothing to like about trump, and his supporters love him.....go figure.

Not so fast my friend, because just this morning I'm sure I saw an embryo, carrying a satchel, trundling off to school past my window – – how absurd can the Republicans get? This has to be the dumbest of the dumb decisions. God help America.

Great post, thanks for the information, however it matters not how many/the magnitude of facts that are presented to GOP/MAGAs, they are programmed not to inwardly digest them, so to speak. Any FACT which contradicts their cult edict is immediately dismissed and diversionary tactics are employed, and this can be seen on this forum, time and time again. The most amazing thing is that they will repeat their lies, even when the truth and facts are presented and are staring them in the face. And I thought your point, "I try not to argue facts with Trump/GOP supporters for the same reason I don't bother trying to teach my dog how to drive a car but here goes" was brilliant. Well done.

Before too many more posters get their "knickers in a twist" it would be wise to read a post on the early pages of this thread, where the old incident was outlined by somebody who obviously knew about it, and it wasn't just about poor service et cetera, it was a vindictive plonker who tried to bring a bottle of his own booze into the restaurant/bar to drink and was charged a corkage fee, which he didn't like, so vented his spleen on trip advisor. For the record, I often bring my own bottle of wine to a restaurant, but not before asking if it is okay and also offering to pay a corkage fee, and have never had a problem.

I delved into the archives last night and downloaded a movie starring Russell Crowe, Renée Zellweger and Paul Giamatti, called "Cinderella Man" and although I had seen it yonks ago, I really couldn't remember much about it, so settled in to watch it, and was surprised at how good it was, with the boxing scenes being absolutely amazing. If anyone hasn't seen it, then IMO it's a must.

Jeez.......You've got to be desperate quoting Marjorie Taylor Green, because she is an absolute nut job, out and out, and then some!

Unfortunately there are a one or two medical folks out there who can be just as stupid as the likes of the doctors who promoted ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as cures for Covid.....America’s Frontline Doctors: Simone Gold, a Beverly Hills physician who founded a doctors’ organisation that challenged pandemic public health measures and promoted unproven covid therapies, has been sentenced to 60 days in prison by a US federal court in Washington, DC, for illegally entering the US Capitol building during the riot on 6 January 2021. Gold came to prominence in July 2020 with a viral video introducing America’s Frontline Doctors on the steps of the US Supreme Court. Seven white coated physicians denounced lockdowns and masks, questioned the utility of vaccines, and touted the benefits of hydroxychloroquine, a drug which had recently been endorsed by Donald Trump. Most of the organisation had no experience treating covid patients, but Gold was then a working emergency department physician. Trump later retweeted the video, making her an overnight star in the conservative media. She has 482 000 Twitter followers, is banned by Facebook, and … https://www.bmj.com/content/377/bmj.o1533

I wondered when someone would roll out the "big Pharma" catchphrase, and it's a wonder that Bill Gates hasn't been mentioned somewhere in amongst the nonsense. Out of the many hundreds of thousands (perhaps millions) of doctors and, physicians, professors and lab workers in the world, is it really possible that they all could be silenced if there was a major fault in this vaccination/program – – not really when you think about it logically, but then logic rarely means anything to those people who quote "big Pharma", Bill Gates and various other conspiracy theories. I had my first vaccinations in 1952 or thereabouts and I've had plenty since, and with working in tropical countries, they were mandated, I also had a shot of immunoglobulin in 1970 before going to work overseas, something which is being looked at again to assist in long Covid symptoms, and new research suggests that it's the actual Covid virus that causes this, nothing whatsoever to do with the vaccination.

More importantly, he has been censured for promoting ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as drugs that will cure Covid, and this nonsense has been debunked time and time again. There is an excellent link here that posters should read because it lays out the details of this charlatan, and how he only really started to make money when he jumped onto the Covid bandwagon. John Campbell conspiracy theory nonsense https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Campbell_(YouTuber) Just for the record, with some vaccinations there is a possibility that the body will react to this by producing a cytokine storm which in rare cases may cause death, but it is not the norm. And remember that many of us have been receiving vaccinations over decades past, and indeed I've had three Covid vaccinations.

Is this the Cultfish or Blowfish??

I watched both the "Clarksons Farm" series and liked them and will watch another one as soon as it comes out!!

A very good movie but a slow start which gets more interesting later on, and the ending is a stunner. Well worth a watch IMO.

Sad man lexxy......me, bullying Trump, everything I have said about him is true, so what's there to argue about. He is what he is and he will never change, so get used to it and get used to other Americans, in their tens of millions (or European for that matter) who think likewise about him. Can't get much lower than stealing from a charity and I don't think you have an answer to that. What you can't seem to grasp is that many reasonable human beings despise what this man is and what he has done so far, and I had to chuckle when trump was the laughing stock amongst some Nato leaders at a European conference...richly deserved IMO.

That's a laugh, because for a start you called me a leftie, which I'm not, so try and get your facts right before calling names. Typical Trump cult Maganut – – there you go, and you can support the orange buffoon all you like, but it won't change the fact that he is a lying orange toad who has defrauded the American people of millions if not billions of dollars and who would not know how to run an ice cream cart let alone a successful business, and the proof is in his multiple bankruptcies and with any luck a jail sentence – – watch this space. Oh, and stealing from a charity is not a good look, is it! Poor deluded suckers that the trumpies are, and they will probably keep buying the cheap trash (made in China to Make America Great Again!) that he his hawking around the place, just goes to show his followers are the type of people he likes.

As I said previously, I am not a leftie, so that's your "argument" gone out of the window.......I just don't think that a compulsive liar with the IQ of a pickled squid, and who has been convicted of stealing from a charity, found guilty of rape, misused campaign funds to pay hookers (the fallout from this is yet to come), been found guilty of fraud and has had 13 of his companies bankrupted, thereby depriving the American working man of monies owed, is fit to run an ice cream cart, let alone the USA. I truly believe that to be the case and I have no time for anybody who supports this crooked orange buffoon. PS. No offense taken.

I wouldn't read too much into this article, because the UK Telegraph is a right-wing rag, and anyway it is only an opinion piece, so take it for what it's worth – – simply nothing. However the trump culties will be over it like a rash!!!

You seem to have gone off the deep end there lexxy, so for a start as regards your comment about "I could go on just checking you feel the same about all the people who represent you", I've got no idea what you mean because none of them represent me! Barking up the wrong tree there old chap. You also include a lot of accusations, but there again, accusations if not proven are merely hearsay, just like the orange cultists like to wheel out the, "Biden crime family" nonsense, which has been proven time and time again to be fake, because it makes them feel good and takes the heat off the Trump crime family.....and if you want proof, read below........... For two years, Comer and Jordan promised to prove that Hunter Biden was engaged in criminal activity in his business relations with Ukraine and China. And not just Hunter, but also his father, then-vice president Joe Biden. Together, Comer called them the “Biden crime family.” Finally, last week, with grand fanfare, Comer scheduled their big show-and-tell — a congressional hearing featuring Devon Archer, Hunter’s former business partner, as star witness. In sum, instead of proving the House Republicans’ case against Joe and Hunter Biden, Devon Archer, under oath, destroyed it. It’s time for Comer and Jordan to fold their tent and move on. Which brings me to my second words of advice: If their goal is to expose a major “crime family,” Comer and Jordan are looking in the wrong place. There’s another family nearby in which the father’s been charged with 78 crimes and he and two sons have been charged with widespread financial fraud. Their last name’s not Biden. It’s Trump. https://thehill.com/opinion/4143058-press-the-biden-crime-family-that-isnt/ The special counsel investigating Hunter Biden has charged a former F.B.I. informant with fabricating claims that President Biden and his son each sought $5 million bribes from a Ukrainian company — a stinging setback for Republicans who cited the allegations in their push to impeach the president. The longtime informant, Alexander Smirnov, 43, is accused of falsely telling the F.B.I. that Hunter Biden, then a paid board member of the energy giant Burisma, demanded the money to protect the company from an investigation by the country’s prosecutor general at the time. The explosive story, which seemed to back up unsubstantiated Republican claims of a “Biden crime family,” turned out to be a brazen lie, according to a 37-page indictment unsealed late Thursday in a California federal court, brought by the special counsel, David C. Weiss. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/15/us/politics/fbi-informant-bidens-ukraine.html

Well that's not surprising lexxy, given that Trump himself said he prefers the poorly educated, in the first instance, and secondly who in their right mind would vote for a man who steals from a charity, cheats on his wife while she is pregnant, has been convicted of rape, incites an insurrection, is a compulsive liar and has conned many good everyday working American tradesmen out of money which is rightfully owed to them. If he was a family member, you would probably report him to the police!! What's to like? Oh, also forgot, supported Putin over his staff on a defence issue.
