  1. Alvin Bragg Threatened Hours After Trump Warns of 'Death and Destruction' The package, which reportedly contained a message that said, "Alvin—I'll kill you," came following a message posted on social media by former President Donald Trump that warned of "death and destruction" if he's criminally charged in New York. https://www.newsweek.com/alvin-bragg-threatened-hours-after-trump-warns-death-destruction-1790254
  2. It seems cause and effect is an alien concept to some on here, fortunately judges don't see it that way. Precisely why there's laws on this form of hate speech and rhetoric.
  3. What this guy you mean, who broke in with the rest of the mob? Video of 'QAnon Shaman' at Capitol riot angers judge
  4. Does anyone in their right mind believe he would actually do it? What part of hate speech, image of violence, actual death threats received by Bragg and warnings of death and destruction do you not understand? There is no defense for this but its amusing you're attempting to make them.
  5. "Is that really your perception of the photograph?" Not just me, from the OP: holding a baseball bat next to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s head. Couple that with the death threats Bragg has already had and Trump saying there was potential for death and destruction, says it all to me.
  6. He's not, he's standing with a baseball bat next to Bragg's head. Get a grip, this is highly disturbing and he knows it. That's why its now deleted. Too late to show what he's really made of though.
  7. Looks like the efforts are paying off........... Ukraine war: Battle for Bakhmut 'stabilising' - Ukraine commander The battle for Bakhmut, the Ukrainian city which Russia has spent months trying to capture, is "stabilising", says Ukraine's commander in chief. Earlier this month, Western officials estimated between 20,000 and 30,000 Russian troops had been killed or injured in Bakhmut since last summer. But despite that, Valerii Zaluzhnyi said Ukrainian troops' "tremendous efforts" were holding back Russia. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-65072173
  8. Indeed, apparently Finland has now opened up all its airspace to NATO https://twitter.com/visegrad24/status/1639350287403044864
  9. He just can't help himself can he..................... Trump warns of ‘potential death & destruction’ if he is charged in hush-money case Former president Donald Trump warned early Friday of “potential death & destruction” if he is charged in Manhattan in a criminal case related to alleged hush-money payments to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels to conceal an affair. The post-midnight posting on Truth Social, Trump’s social media platform, was his latest — and most explicit — allusion to violence that could follow an indictment stemming from an investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), whom Trump called a “degenerate psychopath.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/03/24/trump-hush-money-death-destruction/
  10. Careful what you wish for....lol https://nypost.com/2023/03/23/utah-parent-wants-bible-removed-from-schools-its-pornographic/
  11. In Canada in 2021 over 10,000 people had assisted deaths. On a personal note a year ago my mum in the UK told me she wanted to die. Now a year later she's gone from living in community assisted living to a full nursing home where she has no idea of her whereabouts or her own state of mind. Its just a matter of time now with no quality of life left. If assisted dying was an option a year ago I would have certainly given by blessing to her wish.
  12. Lord Cole noted: "He noted that there are currently no transgender athletes competing internationally in the sport."
  13. Latest polls from Ukraine 82% want to join NATO 85% want to join the EU 91% approve of Zelensky 97% believe in victory over Russia 74% believe that Ukraine will retain all territories within its internationally recognized borders as of 1991. Record 82% of Ukrainians want to join NATO, 85% support joining the EU https://euromaidanpress.com/2023/03/23/record-82-of-ukrainians-want-to-join-nato-85-support-joining-the-eu/
  14. You're easily entertained with Putin's propaganda. The Ukrainians not so much.
  15. Thailand additionally needs to do much more on its own plastic waste that clogs the beaches and sea. Plastic bag usage has certainly decreased in Phuket but not to the levels required and still a lot of work to do in the ocean. There's a small but useful project being run by a specially designed and constructed catamaran in Phuket that sweeps the sea close to the shore of as much of it as it can. While it cannot keep up, its a positive contribution to help. They rely on voluntary donations from International Schools and larger businesses. My daughter is taking part in an all night football competition to help raise funds this weekend. Video of it in action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sfFf6O0kzM
  16. Italy's Eni announces plans for three new offshore wind farms March 22 (UPI) -- New agreements for offshore wind in Italy could add to a growing capacity that could meet the energy demands of more than a million homes, Italian energy company Eni said Wednesday. https://www.upi.com/Top_News/World-News/2023/03/22/italy-eni-wind-energy-cdp-offshore/3151679492839/
  17. The world's a small place, lets hope you never have to cry wolf............... Argentina's 'unprecedented' drought pummels farmers and economy BUENOS AIRES, March 9 (Reuters) - A historic drought ravaging Argentina's crops is deepening the grain exporting giant's economic crisis, crushing farmers across the Pampas, heightening default fears and putting at risk targets agreed with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/argentinas-unprecedented-drought-pummels-farmers-economy-2023-03-09 Spain: Long-term drought to bring more heatwaves, widlfires MADRID (AP) — Spain has officially entered a period of long-term drought, owing to high temperatures and low rainfall over the past three years, and likely faces another year of heatwaves and forest fires. https://apnews.com/article/spain-drought-water-heatwaves-temperatures-forest-fires-33ade88ddeeb6a5b056e406e36f1cd89 Water is a strategic natural resource and an essential element of national and regional security. Water scarcity, including lack of access to water, and water pollution can threaten socio-economic development and political stability and security. Water management challenges can potentially trigger disputes and conflicts; https://www.osce.org/oceea/446359
  18. Deplorable bill. UN and US join chorus of condemnation against Uganda’s hardline anti-LGBT bill The United Nations and United States on Wednesday added to international outrage over a hardline bill passed by Ugandan lawmakers that criminalizes simply identifying as LGBTQ+, prescribes a life sentence for convicted homosexuals and a death penalty for “aggravated homosexuality.” “The passing of this discriminatory bill – probably among the worst of its kind in the world – is a deeply troubling development,” said a statement from Türk’s office. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/03/22/africa/uganda-lgbtq-bill-condemned-intl/index.html
  19. Biden hasn't started any wars either but don't let that concern you.
  20. The vote was an illegal sham, you should read your own link. In addition many of the areas they claimed as having voted over 90% weren't even in their control, they had no polling facilities there. But your last sentence really says it all: "I suggest we let Trump negotiate peace, even if it triggers the left." Its not about triggering anyone. Its about not allowing an illegal land grab and associated war crimes being carried out.
  21. Actually that was a quote the Guardian used, taken from the Observer who in turn took it from the Pentagon https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2004/feb/22/usnews.theobserver
  22. Still one more witness to hear in the court on Wed afternoon then the decision will be after that......... "The panel is expected to hear from at least one more witness before it votes on whether to indict Mr Trump. An indictment could come by Wednesday at the earliest, before the former president appears for an arraignment sometime next week." https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-arrest-indictment-today-latest-b2305599.html
  23. UK to transfer tank armor piercing ammunition with depleted uranium to Ukraine The UK will transfer armor piercing shells containing depleted uranium to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, State Defense Minister Annabel Goldie said. "Alongside our granting of a squadron of Challenger 2 main battle tanks to Ukraine, we will be providing ammunition including armour piercing rounds which contain depleted uranium. Such rounds are highly effective in defeating modern tanks and armoured vehicles," Goldie reported in response to a written parliamentary question from a member of the House of Lords. https://en.interfax.com.ua/news/general/898946.html https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questions/detail/2023-03-06/hl6144
