  1. CHATGTP AI: The Strait of Hormuz is not a canal like the Suez Canal. Ships normally do not queue; they just sail through shipping lanes. But it is the only exit from the Persian Gulf, so a huge amount of oil tankers must pass there. Where ships come from (roughly): Saudi Arabia ~35–40% Iraq ~20–25% United Arab Emirates ~10–15% Iran ~10% Kuwait ~10% Qatar ~5% Where they go: ~80% to Asia (especially China, India, Japan, South Korea) ~15% to Europe ~5% elsewhere Key point: About 1/5 of the world’s oil goes through that narrow passage. If ships slow down or wait for safety, many vessels quickly pile up on both sides.
  2. If you ever need help in how to correctly reply to a post just ask. I can explain how to do it but I cannot understand it for you.
  3. You seem to forget that Dear Leader already has 26 cases of alleged sex misconduct and rape 'under his belt'. Those aren't just reports—they're 'totally uncorroborated allegations,' right? Seems one is the 2016 defamation case where Jane Doe or Katie Johnson accused him of raping her at age 13, supported by witness-verified and corroborated by Tiffany Doe. https://www.scribd.com/document/326057168/Jane-Doe-Declaration-as-Filed
  4. Your argument assumes that Islam universally follows Sharia Law — does evidence actually support that premise.
  5. The President who promised ‘no more wars’ now leads a major Iran strike dubbed ‘Epic Fury’ — its timing suggests ‘Epstein Farce’ might be nearer the mark.
  6. Almost 2 hours a day -- that's a lot of walking. I have knee problems from marathon training -- I took up swimming. I suggest the pain is a warning sign and with your knee buckling up you really need to see an orthopaedic surgeon ASAP.
  7. Do you have any evidence to support your claims?
  8. The maths is fine — the logic isn’t airtight. Agriculture includes: – farm ownership – management – machine operators – seasonal field labour A 60–80% sector share does not prove Americans fill the hardest, lowest-paid roles within it. The original claim concerns specific job types, not overall sector totals. Sector totals don’t establish internal job distribution — that’s a composition fallacy. The claim that higher wages will automatically replace migrant labour is speculative. It’s an assumption, not evidence.
  9. You mean ‘facts’ like less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by ICE had violent criminal charges or convictions — and that immigrants offend at lower rates than the US-born demographic? MAGA’s demonising of them is a red herring. Old authoritarian playbook — focus public anger on a targeted group and blame them for broader problems. Building mass detention facilities will be next.
  10. I agree — a disgraceful moment. Not because Democrats didn’t applaud. Because Trump lied and claimed the killer 'came through open borders' when the suspect was born in the US. Using grieving parents to push a false immigration narrative and blame Biden and undocumented immigrants isn’t leadership — it’s exploitation. That’s the disgraceful moment. Fact Check: Decarlos Brown Jr., The Accused Killer Of Iryna Zarutska, Was NOT A Foreign National Who 'Came In Through Open Borders'
  11. Supporting due process for undocumented immigrants is not the same as 'enjoy having criminals in your neighborhoods'. That’s a non sequitur. If shame is the standard, then voting for and supporting a convicted felon is the real measure. Undocumented immigrants are statistically less likely to commit crimes than the U.S.-born population.
  12. 'The first duty of every government is to protect its citizens — not illegal aliens.'— Donald Trump. False dichotomy. Protecting citizens and upholding due process are not mutually exclusive. The premise is illogical.
  13. My take..... Trump’s SOTU — State Of Trump’s Underwear — both full of it.
  14. A PhD in nursing education qualifies him to teach nursing.
  15. He is not a licensed physician or medical doctor (MD/MBBS) — he is a nurse — and not a qualified medical expert.
  16. Nine lives? Have you been in a coma — or just sipping the Kool-Aid? Two terms in, he’s a lame duck.
  17. Biggest ever. Best ever. Facts never.
  18. Convicted felon Trump’s portfolio seems more comprehensive than what’s merely alleged in the Epstein files.
  19. Agree — after losing the tariff war he needs a win — and to distract from the Epstein allegations, even though he has already declared himself exonerated. His father reportedly drilled into him that the world is divided into winners and losers — and every day he is looking more like the latter. Collateral damage — and others — have never been his concern.
  20. Still in MagaWorld, where assertions count as evidence and insults count as argument.
  21. You’ve made the claim that it's fake. You provide the evidence. That’s how logic works in the real world.
  22. 12.05 GMT ....... King Charles: Police 'have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation' King Charles has said “the law must take its course” after expressing his “deepest concern” over the arrest of his younger brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. In a statement, the monarch said: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested live: King Charles says ‘law must take its course’ and police have his full support
  23. I do not need to prove you wrong. When you make a claim, the burden of proof is yours. Ad hominem attacks are unnecessary if you have facts and truth to support your argument. Are you claiming that all allegations against Trump originate from ‘unverified tips’ and were ‘made without supporting evidence’?
  24. Wrong hemisphere — quite understandable — but only by about an hour’s drive. Obviously, the geography was never the real issue.
