Dozens Feared Dead in Crash After Passenger Flight Diverts From Russia
stevenl replied to TedG's topic in The War in Ukraine
Disagree, they won't hide it but blame Ukraine. Agree, all respect to the crew -
Which i think should be trump's position as well. Depends on if he can be convinced to think strategically or not.

From your source. "It's believed that the suspect was involved in an altercation at a nightclub prior to getting in his car and mounting the pavement." -
Who Is Controlling the Budget Bill? Trump, Johnson, or Musk?
stevenl replied to John Drake's topic in Political Soapbox
Change your news sources for real ones. " A temporary spending bill scuttled by opposition from President-elect Donald Trump would have made U.S. Congress members eligible for a 3.8% salary increase, not 40%, as suggested in posts online that misinterpret a report on congressional salaries." From https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/bipartisan-stopgap-spending-bill-did-not-include-40-pay-raise-congress-2024-12-20/ -
Firstly your source has this as its mission. "FEE’s mission is to inspire, educate, and connect future leaders with the economic, ethical, and legal principles of a free society. These principles include: individual liberty, free-market economics, entrepreneurship, private property, high moral character, and limited government." Hardly objective is it Secondly this is not true. "In March of 2017, the Associated Press reported that the World Health Organization spent more for the travel of 7,000 staffers than it did for countering malaria, tuberculosis, fighting AIDS and hepatitis, and on tackling mental health and substance abuse." The header of the link to which your source refers says "Health agency spends more on travel than AIDS", the text says. "According to internal documents obtained by The Associated Press, the United Nations health agency routinely has spent about $200 million a year on travel expenses, more than what it doles out to fight some of the biggest problems in public health, including AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria combined.". I agree the travel expenses are ridiculously high, there is no need to nisinform.

Here's what happens when the world's richest man buys the presidency
stevenl replied to simple1's topic in Political Soapbox
It's ridiculous that government officials aren't required to distance themselves from their business interests. And an unofficial advisor like musk can do as he pleases without any repercussions. That together with his social media influence make him a danger to democracy, i.e. if judged the USA is still a democracy. -
Two killed and scores injured after car drives into German Christmas market
stevenl replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
The ones with egg on their face are the ones who stated and even worse are still stating it was a religious Muslim attack. No point in discussing when the facts are clear. -

stevenl replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
I would stick with known facts and not with the opinion of one of the most bigoted countries in the world. An opinion btw that does in no way indicate this to be a religious attack. -
All nothing to do with the claim made that the world was laughing at biden. On the other hand i do recall a meeting where all Western leaders laughed trump out of the room.

Two killed and scores injured after car drives into German Christmas market
stevenl replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
I prefer facts, many on here clearly don't. Yes, it's a heinous crime. Everyone pointing at islam should do some soul searching though since facts are clearly pointing in a different direction. You should be criticizing those who were labelling it an islam attack, solely based on a name, but you end up criticizing someone who stuck to facts. -

I'll leave your opinion on biden out of it, but no, the world certainly didn't laugh at him.

Kamala and biden called trump supporters Marxists. Sure -
I'm sure some open windows to fall out off will appear if they shout too loud.
