  1. At 1:35 "Any Hapsburgs in the house?" Elizabeth Hohenzollern is at her usual table over in the corner of the Tokyo Press Club. The nice lady with the beer.

  2. None of this matters. Just as Trump has proven America's word worthless for a generation, so Britain has already resigned from its position of center of the financial world. It all happened two years ago. The moving vans have been multiplying ever since. London is eroding, and Antwerp, hamburg and Paris are taking up the slack. Nothing that happens on Tuesday, nor anything that could happen in a re-vote, can change any of this. It all happened two years ago. This hot air is just the exhaust from Cameron's handing Britain over to his rightwing mob.

  3. Western liberal democracy? With a top o'the át to Gandhi, that might be a good idea. But is the West ready to give it a try? -dlj.

  4. Adam, You wouldn't want to maybe identify some of those "ideas" of "theirs" that are not being enacted? I don't see any ideas out there in Trumpland. It's siply a swamp of resentments, hatreds, and incoherent mumble. The closest things to ideas are wants, generally simple desire for destruction. "Repeal and replace" is a simple lie: it means repeal. If Obama supported something, abolish it is the order of the day. What do you think I'm missing?

  5. This is a joke, right? Between you and me.

  6.  David Miles  It's interesting, but it's an English lie. The whole Zimmerman Telegram fraud was a British spy-story fraud, a brilliant piece of crooked propaganda.

  7.  John Walsh  The Mexican fantasy was a successful English invention, wonderful wicked theatre.
