  1. Of course Cohen used to lie: he used to be on Trump's payroll. That was his job.

  2. Fan, Wazza matter? Donnie Fats got one thing right, and the BBC gave it some space. This is an astonishing event.

  3.  @theumarianmeme1483  Um, the opposition of the invading Russian troops, maybe, troll?

  4. Sorry, Ahriman, that was the Dixiecrats -- now a part of the Republican Party, ever since Nixon's Southern Strategy. These white dresses are celebrating the Suffragettes and taunting Donnie Fats who wants to turn back the clock and who, like you, doesn't know much history.

  5. Both hard and wet, but still aspiring to "sir"?

  6. One is a singular noun. Duh. One is seven households is affected.

  8. They were going to bake the turkey, right? So obviously they had to put a can of baking soda in the stuffing.

  9. "I thank Poland for helping Ukraine. Love from Switzerland!" ...and from Canada, um, and come to think of it, formerly Elkhart, Indiana, sorta Poland-detached...!

  10. MLK Senior was a Republican -- until the Southern Strategy came along. MLK Junior not so much.

  11. There's a reason for that: the rightwing position on late-term removal of carcasses from a woman's womb is as dishonest as everything else they say on the subject.

  12. Junior is on the stand but we don't know what he's said. Te rest are on the stand later. We don't have a clue. This is BBC News.

  13. Damn crocodiles an' their nasty habits. Jus' wait until the cops get to work on the bears an' the koalas. They got anough snow down there to handle the environmnt crisis for the whole southern hemisphere.

  14. "Policy toward African nations" is a singular noun. Anybody who thinks it's plural because it ends in an S is too stupid to be taken seriously -- and the producer who puts that person on the air needs to be fired.

  15. Those aren't balls. They're loose marbles rolling around in his empty head.

  17.  @HS-en4fd  About a third of the people love him, mostly old white geezers -- a group with a death rate somewhere north of 7% per annum. By 2020 enough of the cohorts who supported him 70-30 last time will be dead to shave about 2% off his margin. Deadbeat walking. But He's doing America a service: taking the reactionary, stupid, and around the edges racist, GOP with him. .

  18.  @ByronHawk  Well, obviously he should have talked to Mexico before he made that promise, Byron. They're going to pay for it, remember? All it's going to take is for super-negotiator here to sit down with them and come back with the cheque.

  19.  @HS-en4fd  Nobody accused Kavanaugh of rape, dummy. You're contradicting charges that were never made. The accusation was that a drunken Kavanaugh failed at an incompetent grope.

  20. Not quite. He is guilty, was found guilty, and out of respect for the office he is discharged. Guilty.

  21. Moore's Law is nothing compared to the world-wide adoption of eyeglasses, which suddenly made the whole world literate. Ahem, two hundred and fifty years ago, Tom. It's not all about your latest little slogans, you silly little man, Tom. -dlj.

  22.  @jasondrummond9451  Jason, Galaxy is quite right. You're the on who needs to do some reading, on slavery and on the empires of France, England and Spain, all machines for the violent robbery and exploitation of the unarmed parts of the world.

  23. They coulda asked me: I would have told them where the Moon was so they could have gone around it.

  24. This just proves the laziness and inefficiency of these ancient peoples: Scotland is still all full of furshlugginer rocks, fer crying intha.

  25. I don't see a date on this, but at December 22nd it's really old sad non-news, not an ounce of truth in it. Trump is dead and gone.

  26. Not quite, Taka-chan. The people dying for the old fool in this case are largely middle aged convicts, stupid, uneducated men "serving" as cannon-fodder. The young are dying against, not for, the old fool who made the decision to start this illegal war.

  28. But the real horror story of Abercrombie's is that the suit that sells for $400 on the fourth floor is $150 in the college shop on the second. Uh, sorry, folks, 1969 prices, when I worked in the Fred French Building, down the block. Do they still have that "bespoke" guy, the fella who will take a pair of hiking shorts an inch and a half too long and make them into a pair of hiking shorts an inch and a half too long but uneven?

  29. Well it's obvious, innit? David Icke doesn't look one bit like a lizard, so that proves it. They shape-shift. Next question, please?

  31. Those migrants, they work so hard they turn into sponges! Nothing stupider than the 50% margin (100% mark-up) general store grifter sponging off the people!

  32. American incels take a look: these guys are showing you what real patriots look like, who the real patriots are. Patriotism is love of your country. Patriotism is not disliking and making fun of your classmates and contemporaries some fat old leader-wannabe tells to to hate.

  33.  @LiberalismisDying  Trump is a tired old man, raving to a bunch of dessicated old losers.

  34. Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. Daddy King, also a Reverend of course, was bigger on organizing, not such a graceful Churchillian.

  36. Eddy, I'm sure you think that's a sensible post, and it sorta looks that way -- but it isn't. Toronto currently has about 45,000 "unhoused" people and they are living in about 45,000 government-contolled spaces. They're not out on the street, though, because the various governmental authorities in control of these houses and apartments do not have any coherent set of policies to settle these people "judicially" (or commercially) in the spaces they are in fact occupying. It's not even that they're not paying: almost all of them are paying, but without settled leases. Thus is it not enough to do what you ask, supply affordable apartments. There also have to be coherent policies and acceptable legal structures for the long haul. These, at least in Toronto, are very much lacking. I think it's the same in New York: tens or hundreds of thousands of people have housing but not homes: they are "temporarily" housed -- in some cases for generations in the same place.

  37. Crusaders were losers in the 12th Century. Poor Brits had to bail King Richard out of his folly. What you're trying to sell today is just as stupid. The world is round, you fool, and England is a very little unimportant bit of it by itself. The Gunpowder Years -- when English pirates could go around the world shooting up their betters -- are over, and you're going to have to compete on your merits now. Or you can slink off into a corner and starve by yourself if you like. Good riddance to little island trash, will say the rest of the world.

  39. Among the thousands of demonstrators there was rumored to be a person who did not depend upon the tourist trade for his livelihood. The rumor turned out to be false.

  40.  @DanReda-l4t  Not true at all, child. American stupidity and America's global officiousness are the greatest threat to the national security of both. China being a customer of the Panama Canal is not a threat to anybody -- and China's national security is as much threatened by the United States as the other way around.

  42. The majority of "the People" everywhere want the same thing: free our leader to be himself. Let Putin be Putin! If only Trump were not held back by those namby-pambies around him!

  43. @Falcon2 The BBC audience all know that Neil is a well regarded conservative. It is clear to everybody watching Shapiro has just made a fool of himself, not least by showing that he hasn't done his homework, more generally by tossing out an inanely incorrect accusation. Neil was't trying to "make it so." He was referring to something his home audience all knew is so. Incidentally, anonymous birdie, you do the same favour for yourself, showing with your little squib that you know nothing about the facts of the situation. If you had even bothered to think about the interview as you watched it, you would have seen that it was Shapiro, not Neil, who was operating on fiction, making an incorrect -- and infantile -- accusation.

  44. Trump started with Obama's balanced finances and ran up $7.8 trillion in deficits in his four years.

  45. Australia and Ceylon had better be careful: Donald Trump very certainly can't find Greenland on a map.

  46. Nope. They recommended that the DOJ bring, not brings, charges. A culture -- or company -- that can't handle the subjunctive no long has the intelligence to handle its outer limmbs, as Auntie Beeb demonstrates here.

  47. "Huge blow for Russia as it abandons key Ukrainian city of Kherson - BBC News" I think you mean a huge blow for Ukraine, a huge blow to Russia. Doesn't anybody here speak this language?

  48.  @mielerodriguez5678  Miele, All those things are as imaginary as the pretend payments that Trump held up in his speeches. Trump's interference with NAFTA simply erases wealth; it does not help "pay for" anything. His wall would do nothing for border security, and even genuine border security -- the Democrats' and Pelosi's program -- is only an immigration patch. It will do zip for crime or drug addiction because immigrants are more law-abiding that Americans. I think you're the one who needs to get a grip -- and I assure you I pity, don't hate, poor little Donnie.

  49.  @mielerodriguez5678  Miele, a large minority of Hispanics, possibly as many as a third, are decent conservatives -- as one would expect of intelligent hard-working newcomers. The ones among them who are Republicans are as embarrassed by Trump as is any other decent person on the right.
