Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Bkk Brian replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
Awesome firepower. -
Its a worrying trend, not confined to the groups above. 'This is neo-Nazi ideology on display': Is Florida in danger of being taken over by the far-right? Just a short drive from Disney World, a far-right group harassed Jewish worshippers leaving a synagogue, hurling antisemitic abuse at them through a megaphone. It leaves observers asking, does Florida have a neo-Nazi problem? Orlando has been hit by a rash of antisemitic incidents, with Florida becoming, according to one expert, "ground zero for the extreme right-wing". https://news.sky.com/story/this-is-neo-nazi-ideology-on-display-is-florida-in-danger-of-being-taken-over-by-the-far-right-12835558 In Florida, far-right groups look to seize the moment This demonstration might not seem like much, but for these far-right groups, it's a way to punch above their weight and get noticed. "What we're really going for is people putting it on social media and spreading it around and pushing the conversation in the public arena," Nunes says. https://www.npr.org/2023/03/10/1158344050/florida-far-right-extremism-politics-desantis Florida Neo-Nazis Find Anti-Drag Mania Is a Recruitment Tool A neo-Nazi group in Florida says the right-wing hysteria about drag performances has been an effective recruitment tool. “What we have seen is certain types of activism definitely gets interest and recruitment up. And that’s where like the drag queen <deleted> — like everybody wants to be a part of the team shutting that down,” Josh Nunes, leader of National Socialist Florida, recently told NPR. https://www.advocate.com/news/neo-nazis-florida-drag

In an interview with Roger Stone yesterday Trump called Bill Barr a gutless pig....lol After attacking his former attorney general on Truth Social for his assessment that he is “toast” following his federal indictment, Donald Trump lashed out at Bill Barr three times during a sprawling interview on Roger Stone’s first radio show. Having called him a “gutless pig” online and told his followers to switch off Fox News anytime Mr Barr is a guest, the former president kept the attacks going during his chat with Mr Stone on WABC.

Trump lawyer: ‘There is context to everything’
Bkk Brian replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
One things for sure, she can't deny the tapes...................lol 'Those tapes are my tapes!' Trump enraged by Jack Smith's evidence against him During an interview on Sunday with host Roger Stone, Trump responded to reports indicating he admitted he did not declassify some documents before leaving office with them. Those recordings are reportedly in the hands of special counsel Jack Smith. Trump complained that President Joe Biden "probably doesn't have tapes" incriminating himself. "I have tapes of the FBI during the raid. I didn't put them out because I was asked not to by them," he ranted. "But I have tapes of the raid by FBI. You want to see some tapes? Those are tapes." https://www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-tapes/ -
Absolutely, the responsibility of parents is of the upmost importance when raising children, as is the importance of a good quality education that covers life's subjects that they will be subjected to. Fortunately my children in the UK received both and went onto attend Uni. My daughter here is still going through that process. Here in Thailand she has also had these subjects within the curriculum, its an international school. Its been a great help so she can then discuss further with me at home.

Correct in the UK they embrace teaching this within the curriculum. The Welsh government's RSE code says from the age of seven pupils will be taught "an awareness of how positive and negative social and cultural norms regarding sex, gender and sexuality influence relationships and behaviours". Lord Justice Males added that diversity and inclusion were "fundamental" to British society. https://news.sky.com/story/sex-education-campaigners-lose-bid-to-appeal-high-court-ruling-in-battle-against-welsh-government-policy-12898659

The very same right wing National Review also wrote this yesterday: The Trump Indictment Is Damning " it is impossible to read the indictment against Trump in the Mar-a-Lago documents case and not be appalled at the way he handled classified documents as an ex-president, and responded to the attempt by federal authorities to reclaim them." "Once Trump was no longer president, he had no right to these materials. He stored them recklessly — not in a secured space that had been approved to handle classified documents, but, farcically, in places including his bedroom, a bathroom, and a ballroom. This was within his Mar-a-Lago Club that has hosted events for tens of thousands of people within the roughly year and a half that the documents were in his possession." https://www.nationalreview.com/2023/06/the-trump-indictment-is-damning/ It goes on, its quite damning of Trump and his corrupt behaviour in this case.

Talking about well known names, there's a video of Kari Lake giving this beauty going round twitter: “If you want to get to President Trump, you’re going to have to go through me and you’re going to have to go through 75 million Americans just like me,” said Lake, a staunch Trump ally who lost her 2022 bid for governor. Most of those Trump voters, she pointedly added, are “card-carrying members” of the National Rifle Association. “That’s not a threat. That’s a public service announcement,” she said. “We will not let you lay a finger on President Trump. Frankly, now is the time to cling to our guns and our religion.” https://www.ajc.com/politics/kari-lake-on-indictment-you-will-not-lay-a-finger-on-president-trump/MMN42LXFBFAI3OLFITJY7TPIHE/

Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Bkk Brian replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
Support still strong: Over 80% of Ukrainians oppose territorial concessions, even at risk of protracted war — poll In every region of Ukraine, the absolute majority of the population is against any territorial concessions, KIIS said. In Eastern Ukraine 75% are against concessions (only 13% are ready to make concessions), while 86% are against concessions (only 8% are ready) in Southern Ukraine. https://news.yahoo.com/over-80-ukrainians-oppose-territorial-124000569.html -
Study history. There is a real, immanent danger in engaging in this type of rhetoric. Indeed these far right wing message boards are notorious for engaging in hate speech and promoting violence, so much so that the owner of the original one had to close it down. TheDonald’s owner speaks out on why he finally pulled plug on hate-filled site The Army veteran, a site moderator who owned its domain, watched with growing alarm as racism, threats and QAnon references flourished on the pro-Trump site. His former co-moderators called him a ‘sellout’ who went ‘rogue’ after internal schism. Jody Williams knew things had gotten out of hand early last month, when a post on the pro-Trump message board TheDonald included a detailed diagram of how to tie a “hangman’s knot” on a noose. Three days later, on Jan. 6, a real noose was hung on makeshift gallows on the National Mall, amid a violent siege on the U.S. Capitol. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/02/05/why-thedonald-moderator-left/

As we can see here even when the evidence is in front of their eyes they still refuse to believe it and deflect. -
