  1. *Deleted post edited out* Yet its not just the NYT and the National records where even pre warning Trump in 2017! National Archives officials have periodically warned White House lawyers that the Trump administration needs to follow document preservation laws
  2. Pretty sure you're trolling, evidence everywhere for this Inside the 20-Month Fight to Get Trump to Return Presidential Material The government tried repeatedly for more than a year and a half to get the former president to give back documents from his time in office. Finally, it resorted to a search of his property.
  3. Perhaps Zelensky wants his country back and the Russian invaders to leave.
  4. When it gets to the stage that Russia has to move its air defense systems from St Petersburg to Ukraine then you know they are desperate. Exclusive: Russia moves missiles from St Petersburg to Ukraine Satellite images obtained by Yle indicate that Russia has been moving a large number of anti-aircraft missiles toward Ukraine, including from as far away as St. Petersburg, one of the most crucial areas for Russian air defence. The transfer of equipment has not previously been publicly reported in Russia or western countries. St Petersburg—Russia's second-most important city—has long been surrounded by a protective ring of 14 anti-aircraft missile bases. Now several of them stand empty. https://yle.fi/news/3-12626182
  5. Quite right too BREAKING: EU suspending 65% of #Hungary’s EU funding because of #Orban’s attacks on the rule of law, announces Commissioner @JHahnEU . It pertains to €7.5 billion in funding. BRUSSELS, Sept 18 (Reuters) - The European Union executive recommended on Sunday suspending some 7.5 billion euros in funding for Hungary over corruption, the first such case in the 27-nation bloc under a new sanction meant to better protect the rule of law. https://www.reuters.com/world/first-eu-seen-moving-cut-money-hungary-over-damaging-democracy-2022-09-18/
  6. Personally I'm all for the Monarchy in the UK and I also believe they provide great value for money. It helps earn hundreds of millions for Britain’s economy every year, with Windsor Castle and Frogmore House recording roughly 426,000 paying visitors between April 2021 and March 2022. An adult ticket costs £26.50 from Sunday to Friday. Other royal tourist destinations such as Buckingham Palace, the Royal Mews, Clarence House, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, and the Queen’s Gallery also generate significant revenue. While the average annual cost for UK taxpayers in royal upkeep comes to around £500m a year, Brand Finance estimates the monarchy’s brand contributes £2.5bn to the British economy in the same timeframe.
  7. A lawyer representing Donald Trump in a New York tax fraud probe told a court that she thoroughly searched his Mar-a-Lago home for documents - less than a week before the Justice Department subpoenaed him in an investigation over his handling of highly classified records. Though the investigations are separate, the revelation that Alina Habba performed a 'diligent' search of Trump's office raises new questions about the level of exposure other people had to top secret government files that the ex-president was keeping at his Florida home.
  8. This was from July 2022. Israel had loosened all covid restrictions, Biden started off fist bumping but it was the Israel Alternate Prime Minister Naftali Bennett who offered his hand to shake with Biden first. There were no covid restrictions in Israel then regarding handshakes. If you read your own article you linked to the protocol was in place for other reasons. Millionth tourist of 2022 arrives in Israel, just four months after COVID restrictions lifted June 2022
  9. The first post you responded to on this made the claim: Have you forgotten that his lawyers acting on the advice of an unnamed party, falsely asserted to the Justice Dept that all documents marked classified had been returned? You are the one saying the Lawyers "Lied! Lied! Lied!" not anyone else. What is clear someone held back information that more documents were there and wanted to keep that hidden.
  10. *Deleted post edited out* More than a third of the accounts Donald Trump has amplified on his Truth Social platform in the last month have promoted QAnon by sharing the movement's slogans, videos or imagery On Tuesday, using his Truth Social platform, the Republican former president reposted an image of himself wearing a Q lapel pin overlaid with the words “The Storm is Coming.” In QAnon lore, the “storm” refers to Trump’s final victory, when supposedly he will regain power and his opponents will be tried, and potentially executed, on live television. https://apnews.com/article/technology-donald-trump-conspiracy-theories-government-and-politics-db50c6f709b1706886a876ae6ac298e2
  11. Damning assessment of the present situation Russia is in from Igor Vsevolodovich Girkin, Russian army veteran and former Federal Security Service officer who played a key role in the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, and later the war in Donbas as an organizer of militant groups in the Donetsk People's Republic.
  12. Place as many bets as you like but these concerns on Hungary were raised well before 24th Feb
  13. "further stated he was not advised there were any records in any private office space or other location in Mar-a-Lago." The lawyer (Individual Two) was advised (by Individual One who is not named) there were no documents in office but there were"
  14. You said: I replied and made it very clear its nothing like that at all
  15. Page 20/21 https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854/gov.uscourts.flsd.617854.125.0_1.pdf
  16. Nothing like that at all no. Hungary is Determined to Silence Any Critics Left Standing Hungary: Media council takes steps to silence independent radio “Don’t be silenced” – Hungary's biggest independent news site collapses
  17. Things have moved on since then: US asks appeals court to lift judge’s Mar-a-Lago probe hold https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-mar-a-lago-government-and-politics-819a312522858f638a70cd9a0770d4a4
  18. False flag? Vladimir Putin said that Ukraine was trying to arrange terrorist attacks near Russia's nuclear facilities Attacking Russia's nuclear arsenal is a justification that the Kremlin cites for a potential nuclear strike
  19. I know its dirt cheap, amazing what you can get in Thailand.
  20. I consider Prigozin to be exactly what he is, seeing you are keen on Wiki links here's the facts of who he is: Yevgeny Viktorovich Prigozhin[a] (Russian: Евге́ний Ви́кторович Приго́жин; born 1 June 1961) is a Russian oligarch[5] and close confidant of Russian president Vladimir Putin.[6] Prigozhin controls a network of companies including Wagner, a Russian state-backed mercenary group accused of war crimes in Africa, Syria, and Ukraine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yevgeny_Prigozhin Although he was denying it, even attempting to sue the head of Bellingcat: Lawyers for Putin’s ‘Chef’ Abandon Libel Case Against Bellingcat Founder Yevgeny Prigozhin’s libel suit against investigative journalist Eliot Higgins is already off to a rough start. Prigozhin, 60, a catering magnate known as “Putin’s chef,” filed suit against Higgins, the founder of investigative website Bellingcat, in December after the news site published reports revealing Prigozhin’s close ties to the Kremlin and his work running the shady Wagner Group, a mercenary organization operating in conflicts in Ukraine, Africa, and the Middle East.
  21. I have no idea what your talking about, I'm not wondering about anything but don't let that stop you rambling
  22. Well sure, Vlad would also not like this emphasized I agree, after all he thought it would take a week or so to conquer Ukraine and install a puppet government. Instead its been over 7 months. In 4 days Ukraine has liberated more territory than Putin's army was able to capture in 4 months. Putin has now resorted to calling on his private unaccountable PMC the Wagner group to recruit from convicts because he's too scared to announce a full mobilization. Not only are they recruiting convicts they are also making it clear they are just cannon fodder. Some choice words directly from Prigozhin, the leader of Wagner while he's talking to the inmates: "no one retreats, no one falls back into capture, during training you will be told about 2 grenades when surrendering, If you arrive in Ukraine and decide it's not for you, we execute you." Would you like some more emphasis?
  23. I guess it was just a matter of time when towns and cities getting liberated find more evidence of atrocities. We've been hearing for weeks now of Russians recruitment campaign in prisons, offering convicts pardon after 6 months service in Ukraine. However this new video that has surfaced of the head of Wagner group doing the actual recruiting and his demands from the convicts is chilling: Video shows the head of a shadowy mercenary group recruiting at a Russian prison, offering inmates freedom if they fight in Ukraine but death if they run "Nobody goes back behind bars," Prigozhin, founder of the Russian private military company Wagner, can be seen telling men in a video from a Russian prison yard, per a translation from The Wall Street Journal's Yaroslav Trofimov. "If you serve six months, you are free. If you arrive in Ukraine and decide it's not for you, we execute you." He gives the men 5 minutes to make a choice. https://www.yahoo.com/news/video-shows-head-shadowy-mercenary-204444445.html
  24. They already do inside tours of Buckingham palace do some research
  25. While the average annual cost for UK taxpayers in royal upkeep comes to around £500m a year, Brand Finance estimates the monarchy’s brand contributes £2.5bn to the British economy in the same timeframe. Not only a great institution but also a money making one.
