Convicted by Dems jurors in a Dem court, led by a Dem judge and prosecuted by a Dem - that sounds fair!

It's a psychological/emotional condition outside of CDCs remit. Those who suffer will never know but react at the mention of Trump's name.

Only those who suffer would say 🤪

If she thinks that, what did she do to help Corbyn?

You think a bookkeeping error constitutes rigging an election? Wow, just wow. It will be reversed and is, in itself, trying to rig the next election. Watch this space.

Talking points for Dems Cohen had an epiphany and is a good guy Stormy has become a nun Bragg never said "I'll get Trump" it was AI Clinton never deleted her emails - a staffer did it Fani loves Trump, but she has to do her job Biden never had any boxes in his garage Biden is only pretending to have dementia Hunter was only pretending to take drugs Cohen never stole the money - Trump told him to do it We don't want those immigrants' votes - we want them to wash our cars Merchans' daughter is a closet GOP surrogate and only pretends to hate Trump

Even if you hate Trump, you cannot say that this is not political. Even Anderson Cooper on your beloved CNN admitted if his name were not Trump the case would not be brought. It will be reversed; the judge knows that, but he just wanted to damage Trump's election chances. It will backfire eventually.

You have chosen work - amor fati

It is appalling, but most of us know two wrongs don't make a right, and Israel continues to butcher women and children hourly.

You could not make it up! Son flees arrest for killing a Policeman and his father sues for defamation.

And the photo is of a farang leading a farang girl away? The inference would normally be that it was a farang but I don't know any called Chaowit!

I assure you that you would not want to pick on the wrong Russian either - always WALK AWAY, especially in a foreign country.

I agree... but there it is. It was instilled from an early age, but we can say no more - I hope it changes.

How old is he? I doubt this story, but I feel it for him and his daughters. I wish them well.

A democracy?

Thais are very proud and consider anyone outside... as outside. It's very xenophobic, but that's to be expected in a country 50 years behind the West.

Nothing about fleeing Russia due to Ukraine - there is no fighting in Russia. Probably overstayed their holiday.

He should have walked away - now he will walk to a prison cell.

And the USA does? I don't think vassalage was on the table at all, but I think implementing the 2014 accords would have avoided all this. It's too late now, and Ukraine is lost. Watch this space. If NATO gets involved, your kids and grandkids will have no future. It will be WW3. I think this is very close, and China will join Russia, India, etc. This is almost unthinkable but possible, unfortunately. Be careful what you wish for.

Modern-day Finland - yes, Finland fought against Germany and then allied with Europe in the 1990s, which was the obvious and most sensible thing to do.

Certainly not, but I would have kept my country neutral and out of the hands of the US.

I'm not patronising, Bob. I just have a little humour, which is beyond you, obviously. I have never heard Putin claim Ukrainians are Satanists. By the way, talk for yourself, Bob. None of this "we." We are all individual posters with individual opinions—I never say "we"; I talk about my observations and experiences.

A compromise that would have saved thousands of lives. It won't end well for Ukraine, unfortunately, and as Professor Mearsheimer, University of Chicago, pointed out countless times, a deal back then would have left Ukraine almost in one piece and saved hundreds of thousands of useless deaths.

Ohhh Bob noooooo... Finland has been in the EU, with Sweden, since 1995 - keep up, Bob. They were never in Russia's corner. BTW nor should they be. Russia has never liked Finland since Lenin's time (you might need to open a history book to understand this little slice of humour). So, let's have no more about Finland and Sweden as they are irrelevant to the topic.

False equivalence - Finland and Sweden were always allied to USA/Europe and Ukraine to Russia (Slavs and all that). I can confidently say Ukraine will never be in NATO or WW3 will be here, and if that happens, it will all be irrelevant.
