  1. You are being deceived! Do you have any evidence that Trump really wants everything out in the open? If so, Trump and his lawyers would have sued in court to have the un-redacted affidavit released. He really only wants his rhetoric to drive the grift. Release of the un-redacted affidavit to the public will end that. He has never ever wanted anything out in the open and released to the public. His affair with Stormy, his private conversations with Putin, his taxes, his deposition last week where he pleaded the Fifth more than 400 times. etc etc
  2. Giuliani while defending Trump on having classified document, he dropped this gem! "Donald Trump’s former personal attorney Rudy Giuliani on Thursday appeared to admit that Mr Trump had classified documents that are the property of the US government, during an appearance on the right-wing Newsmax television network". Rudy Giuliani gives new excuse for Trump holding onto classified documents at Mar-a-Lago | The Independent
  3. The mine is a TM-62 which uses TNT. In my military days, we would only use TNT as a fire-starter as it burned a bit smoky. The CE primers that came with the TNT were better for the boiling the cuppa,
  4. Perhaps there is a good reason for him not disclosing his sources of information. If it was Fox, I would be reticent too. In the recent past, Fox used the defence that "a reasonable viewer of ordinary intelligence listening or watching" would no believe the programming in the successful summation of a defamation case. Obviously a lot of viewers believe every utterance of Fox commentators. So what does say about Fox's attitude to their viewers and their viewers ability for critical thinking. https://www.npr.org/2020/09/29/917747123/you-literally-cant-believe-the-facts-tucker-carlson-tells-you-so-say-fox-s-lawye
  5. II don't agree. A flat ceiling with insulation with a large volume roof cavity, possibly also insulated and air vents would be cooler and more energy efficient than your proposal. I have lived in an area most of my life where summer temperatures can exceed 47C and vaulted ceilings are not the norm due to that very reason. Also, rooms with vaulted ceilings have a much larger volume which means more energy costs with air-conditioning. Also skylights in Thailand? I would suggest that it would be more beneficial to reduce the amount of light (and radiant heat ) coming into a room then adding to it. Doubt if energy will ever get cheaper in my lifetime. I do agree though that vaulted ceilings do look nice!
  6. I would suggest that an insulated flat ceiling with a big air space between it and the roof with possibility some roof vents would be better than a vaulted ceiling which would have minimal air space.
  7. You "one law and nobody above it" is a troll. Really? Trump seems to be promoting it! In 2016 during a campaign stop in Charlotte, Donald Trump promised to 'enforce all laws' to protect classified material and that no-one will be above the law. The SCOTUS is also on board with it!
  8. Putin World Declares ‘Our Agent Trump’ Is Irreversibly Screwed! “[Trump could be declared] a Russian spy... Will we try to exchange him to bring Trump to Russia? Will they include Trump on the prisoner exchange list?” Russian State Media Declares ‘Our Agent’ Donald Trump Is Irreversibly Screwed (thedailybeast.com)
  9. Modern armoured vehicle design can include a V-shape hull to redirect the force of the mine blast and added internal appliqué armour to prevent spalling and protect the crew and passengers. So mines and IED's can have a tough time penetrating the hull but can still disable the vehicle by damaging tracks and wheels.
  10. Yeah, think you are correct. I was mainly relying on the other comments and the title. But taking a close look, it hasn't even got a gun.
  11. So, you weren't surprised when Trump tried to pull off "some kind of coup" on January 6th?
  12. True, Biden is head of Government. Whereas Trump was more like the emperor in Hans Christian Anderson's tale of The Emperor's New Clothes.
  13. Most modern tanks crews have well-insulated noise cancelling headsets so they can fire the gun and communicate at the same time, so maybe not that bad. Most modern Russian tanks only have a crew of three, the gun is autoload. Russian autoloaders have the ammo carousel under the turret hence the jack-in-the-box effect. Nato tanks have a fourth crew for loading and the ammo is located elsewhere in a blast-proof magazine.
  14. Obviously, you have a moral compass about hate speech and insulting other's disabilities. So why do you subscribe to an ex-president who has the very personal attributes that you detest and cannot tolerate?

  19. Trump Didn't Schedule Any Intel Briefings After Capitol Riot: Book (businessinsider.com)
  20. "President Biden said on Friday that he would bar his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, from receiving intelligence briefings traditionally given to former presidents, saying that Mr. Trump could not be trusted because of his “erratic behavior” even before the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. The move was the first time that a former president had been cut out of the briefings, which are provided partly as a courtesy and partly for the moments when a sitting president reaches out for advice. Currently, the briefings are offered on a regular basis to Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama." Biden Bars Trump From Receiving Intelligence Briefings, Citing ‘Erratic Behavior’ - The New York Times (nytimes.com)
  21. This is interesting, it details and debunks the myriad of conflicting lies Trump has told. Quite a contrast to the evidence-based narrative coming from the DOJ. There has NEVER been a Democrat as FBI Director. All FBI directors, starting w/ Hoover in 1924 have been Republicans.
  22. In the 2020 Election, Trump lost the popular vote to Biden by 7 million. In the 2016 Election, he lost the popular vote to Hillary by 3 million. Obviously, he is a serial loser!
  23. The award for anachronism of the year goes to... Paul Manafort was pardoned by Trump in 2020.
  24. Rand Paul's behaviour seems suspicious in wanting to repeal the Espionage Act. He also was the lone wolf in wanting to block the US 40 billion aid bill support Ukraine against Russia. Rand Paul blocks bipartisan effort to swiftly pass Ukraine aid - CNNPolitics
  25. I have an Oz credit card with a very high limit which I will only use for emergencies. I have notified my bank that I am overseas as if I do have a transaction they may very well stop it if they don't have prior notification. They have assured me that if I continue to pay the yearly fee my card and limit will remain active ad infinitum. No need to do any transactions. Attached is a presentative list of T&C's.
