So what? Those are his words, reported verbatim. You can find the same exact words quoted in numerous other places. Here's another source if you don't like that one. Pentagon silent, aviation experts baffled by Trump’s fighter comments https://www.defensenews.com/air/2025/05/16/pentagon-silent-aviation-experts-baffled-by-trumps-fighter-comments/ There are also video clips, it was a televised press conference.

While it's of course difficult to be 100% sure, looking at her social media posts, she doesn't come across as just a naïve, unwitting dupe. On her TikTok account she was literally flashing wads of cash and bragging about a criminal lifestyle.

Another almost totally unintelligible rant by Trump. This time it's about not liking/believing in stealth technology because the planes are "ugly". Trump Goes on Weird Rant About Military Planes Not Being Pretty Enough https://www.yahoo.com/news/cognitive-decline-trump-goes-rant-142152335.html

Well I don't know about anyone else but after I realised how quickly they deteriorate if kept in a drawer or on the counter top, I started keeping all my medicines (that I know won't be consumed within a week or so) in the fridge.

So you've evidently bought into the obvious falsehood that all illegal immigrants are violent criminals.

If the article in The Sun about her flashing wads of cash, being the director of at least two overseas companies and alluding to criminal activities is accurate, she may not have been an unwitting mule.

Do you have a source? Genuine question.

My phone has a whole bunch of different settings related to Emergency alerts and whether you'll receive them.

There's an absolute plethora of straw man arguments on this thread. The article says that these new strains cause only mild symptoms, and that "patients are being managed like those with common respiratory conditions, negating the need for special quarantine measures." A lot of the responses posted so far make it sound as if the Doctors mentioned in the article were pitching this as a critical health emergency and calling for an immediate nationwide lockdown, whereas they are doing nothing of the sort.

That's a ridiculous ask. You and I don't get to have our own version of what due process is - it's part of the US Constitution and only the courts (especially the Supreme Court) are entitled to interpret it. SCOTUS has already done so, and I already posted their ruling of what due process means for the people facing deportation proceedings. I don't have any personal experience of how deportation proceedings should work but again, I think the Supreme Court justices do, which is why I would defer once more to their obviously superior expertise. Nor have I expressed any concern or outrage about this or any other deportation proceedings, my only concern is to challenge your understanding of due process which you seem to think includes being detained in an ICE facility, when the Supreme Court ruling would indicate that it doesn't. You're the one who claimed that them being detained was part of due process so it's actually incumbent on you to provide evidence that backs up that claim. Accordingly, please provide evidence from a reputable source (a legal site or court ruling should suffice) that being detained forms part of a person's due process rights.

Again, you're just showing your ignorance. No matter how well-justified their detention might be, it's still not a part of due process.

You do realise that James Comer held hearings lasting a whole year and could find no actual evidence of illegal payments to Joe Biden, nor proof of any crime committed by Biden, don't you?

You're just demonstrating yet again that you don't understand what due process means. Being detained in an ICE facility prior to being deported does not constitute due process. Due process, as specified by the Supreme Court in their unanimous, 9-0 ruling means that individuals facing deportation must be given "notice and opportunity to be heard appropriate to the nature of the case." Being detained in an Immigration Detention Center does not form any part of what the Supreme Court defines as their due process rights.

Or alternatively, when he starts calling him, "the Peruvian Pope" (given that he is a naturalized Peruvian citizen).

Wish I could give this more than just one "Thanks" emoji. Possibly one of the best posts I've seen in quite some time.

£6200,000 was the calculated cost using a valuation system known as Capital Asset Value for Amenity Trees or CAVAT. It's basically the estimated cost of planting, tending and growing a replacement tree in the same location until it's the same size as the original tree. Considering that it would take over a hundred years to do so, £620,000 might be a conservative estimate.

As the OP alludes to, this was an opinion piece in The Telegraph. So I checked, and it turns out the piece was written by Michael Taube, a former speechwriter with the Canadian Conservative Party. So it's pretty much a given that he was never going to say anything complimentary about Mark Carney, a political opponent. In addition to that, it's clear that he'd already made up his mind about how this meeting would go, well before it even happened. Here's an article he wrote about a week before the meeting even took place. Michael Taube: Trump will tear Carney to shreds https://nationalpost.com/opinion/trump-will-tear-carney-to-shreds

You keep repeating this claim - do you have any evidence for it?

The trouble with that argument is that Trump is not only against illegal immigration, he is also against legal immigration, as pointed out in the Forbes article below. Donald Trump’s Team Takes First Steps To Cut Legal Immigration https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2025/03/04/donald-trumps-team-takes-first-steps-to-cut-legal-immigration/

Their economy is also in dire straits. If it were not for military expenditures, it would be even worse off. The Russian economy is on the brink of collapse and Putin knows it https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-economy-putin-ukraine-war-deal-talks-trump-b2714371.html

Suppressing people who are gay does not change their sexuality, so I'm not sure how you figure that it increases the number of heterosexuals.

VAERS doesn't prove anything. That's because it doesn't provide any evidence about what caused the adverse events reported to it. Their website makes that quite clear. This is from their FAQ page. https://vaers.hhs.gov/faq.html

As previously mentioned, this deal does not provide any absolute guarantee that the US will get any money back, and certainly not in the short term. It's only if the fund set up by this deal is still making money after ten years, that the US has the possibility to get some money out of it. And while that's certainly possible, there is no concrete assurance there will be profits a decade from now. Anyway, even if the US does get something back, it won't be during Trump's term in office - unless he's still in office in 2035, that is.

It's not often that I agree with Rand Paul, but he's bang on the money here. https://youtu.be/aOK2NW7Va6E?si=PaWSc0cbMB33_3ky

I hear Trump is considering renaming the San Andreas fault to Biden's fault. 😀
