For anyone who's ever complained about why foreigners get involved in US politics, this is why: because some rednecks and morons forgot about the last time, decided that their own grocery prices were more important than rule of law and refused to elect the nice black lady...

It astounds me that many of the arrests / sackings related to Epstein are essentially for insider trading rather than any sort of sexual misconduct. I understand that it's probably easier to prove but I think it does say something about where the priorities lie. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

I just rewatched the resignation speech by Sir Geoffrey Howe which effectively brought down Thatcher and I think much of it, regarding the EU, still rings true. Even some 35 years later and a decade after the Brexit referendum.

So in other words, they disarmed him, shot him a few times until he was motionless on the floor, and then shot him a few more times to make sure he was dead? It's noot even a pretence anymore they're just killing people for resisting them.
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

This was an incredible and pivotal speech by Mark Carney, and I think the approach he outlined, following Alexander Stubb's example, of a "values-based realism", is the only sane way forward.

European leaders need to start working together, with each other, with Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Cuba and whoever else will join to provide a united front against Trump's aggressive expansionism before it's too late.
And more importantly when will European leaders realise that the US is no longer an Ally and that we will have to fight 2 Superpowers and a regional power in the next world war?

So, Ukraine 2022 was Spain 1936, Venezuela 2026 is the Anschluss, which puts us right around 1938. Probably, Greenland, Colombia or Mexico will be the Sudetenland, and then I guess Canada is Poland. In any case, Starmer's appeasement makes him Chamberlain and Farage is Mosley. Who will be Churchill?

T: The Danish government says that the people of Greenland have a right to self-determination, which raises the question: By what right does the US assert its right to control Greenland?
